Drawing on a wealth of unexplored material - available for the first time since the collapse of the former Soviet Union - Robert Service's biography of Stalin is the most authoritative yet published. It concentrates not simply on Stalin as dedicated bureaucrat or serial political killer, but on a fuller assessment of his formative interactions in Georgia, his youthful revolutionary activism, his relationship with Lenin, with his family, and with his party members. "This is effectively the first full biography since perestroika to encompass the economic, political, diplomatic, military, administrative and, above all, ideological dimensions, as well as the personal aspects of Stalin's colossal life...Gritty and unshowy, but enlightened by Service's compelling characterisation, magisterial analysis and dry wit, this outstanding biography of lightly worn authority, wide research and superb intuition will be read for decades" - Simon Sebag Montefiore, author of "Stalin: The Court of the Red Tsar", "Sunday Times".

Robert Service is the author of Lenin: A Biography, and Russia: Experiment with a People and is the author of numerous other books on Russian history, including his History of Twentieth Century Russia

Each season, the Society of the Four Arts serves up something new. Last year, it was the addition of the Fitz Eugene Dixon Education Building, which greatly augmented the organization's Campus on the Lake program. This year, the new comes in the form of arts initiatives designed to bring an even larger audience to the Palm Beach campus.
In addition to three art exhibits that will visit the Esther B. O'Keeffe Gallery, the Four Arts will host a children's art exhibition entitled "Illustrating Words: The Wondrous Fantasy World of Robert L. Forbes, poet and Ronald Searle, artist." This collection of more than 60 works marrying poetry and art will transport children to a whimsical world of watercolor and poetry from November 1 through Summer 2015.
|View Vermeer's Lady Seated at Virginal as part of the telecast of "Vermeer and Music: The Art of Love and Leisure."
For even more art, attend "Great Art on Screen." This new program allows visitors to travel to some of the world's greatest museums without leaving the comfort of the island. The exhibition telecasts include "Manet: Portraying Life" at the Royal Academy of Arts on December 7, "Munch 150" at the National Museum and Munch Museums on January 4 and "Vermeer and Music: The Art of Love and Leisure" at the National Gallery on January 18.
These additions merely scratch the surface of the programming available at the Four Arts during the 2013-14 season. The ever-popular O'Keeffe Lecture Series returns in January with speakers including Garrison Keillor, Itzhak Perlman and Mia Farrow. Planning to attend Art Basel this year? Join the Four Arts on December 5 for a field trip and discuss abstract art among a friendly group. And don't forget about the Sunday Concert Series, which kicks off December 15 with the Tempest Trio. An insider tip: Mark the performance of pianist Benjamin Grosvenor on February 9 on your calendar now. The British-born 21-year-old is gearing up to make a name for himself in the classical music world, and you'll want to gloat that you saw him way back when.

Garry Breitkreuz Yorkton—Melville, SK
Mr. Speaker, I stand before you having heard what the Liberal government has to offer to Canadians in the form of its 2004 budget. It is quite obvious that Canadians have had to listen to the Liberals' so-called plans for a better Canada, but the Prime Minister, the Minister of Finance and this Liberal government have not listened to the taxpayers of this country. They have not listened.
I recently toured my riding of Yorkton--Melville, an area in eastern Saskatchewan that includes both urban and rural settings, and I can tell the House that Canadians are sick and tired of being jeopardized because of the Liberal agenda. If there is any question as to whether the Liberals' billion dollar scandals like the sponsorship program or the gun registry are fading from the minds of our taxpayers, members can just ask any of my constituents: they are not.
Canadians feel sheer resentment and frustration toward the Liberals for misusing and mishandling their money, and uttering words like accountability and transparency in the budget speech is not going to regain the trust that this government has lost.
Canadians are outraged over the loss of their tax dollars, yet the Liberal government chooses to ignore their cries to scrap programs like the gun registry, which is estimated to balloon to $2 billion before it is even fully implemented. We are hearing that there may be changes to the gun control program, but that is not what we need to hear. Canadians were waiting to hear that no more money would be wasted on the useless registry. Instead, they were lied to with words like "better money management".
How is their money being better managed with a program that the Liberals said would cost $2 million but is instead heading toward the $2 billion mark? That is one thousand times over budget. How can the government justify continuing spending on a program aimed to keep duck hunters on the edge and further outrage the very people who are funding it, the Canadian taxpayers? How much longer will our taxpayers have to pay for a useless program that continues to exist only as a Liberal propaganda program?
My riding is home to one of Saskatchewan's major health care facilities, the Yorkton Regional Health Centre. It helps serve 60,000 people in the Sunrise health district, plus a good number of western Manitoba residents. The heath districts in Saskatchewan share a number of services, requiring people to travel to Regina or Saskatoon for major surgeries, tests or specialized treatment.
While the drive to one of these centres on a weekly or sometimes even daily basis can be very tedious, the grave concern is with the amount of time people have to wait to receive treatment or in some cases even to be diagnosed. It is an unconscionable length of time that they have to wait. People are walking around with cancers spreading through their bodies and some do not even know it. Men previously diagnosed with prostate cancer are waiting months for treatment while the cancer spreads. For some, necessary surgeries come too late and the spreading cancer cannot be stopped.
It is absolutely unconscionable. These people have no hope. The treatment they are getting makes them feel more hopeless. The health and quality of life of Canadians are suffering because this government cannot get its priorities straight. The $2 billion band-aid the government announced is incomparable to the $25 billion wound that was opened by the finance minister when he slashed health care spending.
Young people in their forties and fifties are being forced into wheelchairs because they are waiting for hip replacement surgeries. They have to put their dignity on the line as they ask for help in bathing, dressing and using the washroom. These people have to rely on others to care not only for them but for their own families as well. All they want is a chance to live life again.
These people understand the need to wait their turn for surgery such as a hip replacement, but there is no answer as to how long that wait will be. The waiting lists in Saskatchewan are so long that necessary surgeries are not even being scheduled. People are living in agony. For some, that means placing even more of a load on overworked doctors, nurses and other health care employees. There is no light at the end of the tunnel for these people because this Liberal government refuses to hear what is really happening out there. The Liberals have placed a huge burden on the health care system, yet they will not take responsibility.
My constituents are very perceptive. They already see the pattern formed by the Prime Minister and his Liberal government. They see that the government cannot control taxpayers' dollars. Nor do they believe any of the promises made by the Prime Minister. Time and time again our people have been let down by the government and they simply will not fall for false hopes anymore.
The Prime Minister says health care is a priority, yet that clearly has not been the case in this or any of his past budgets.
He says more resources need to be devoted to the military, yet our servicemen and servicewomen are risking their lives flying in ancient Sea King helicopters and there is not even a plan to replace them.
There was the promise to scrap the GST, which was broken.
There were promises to lower taxes. They were broken.
And just where does the fuel tax go? Certainly not to the broken down highways connecting my constituents to their hospitals.
By offering very little in the budget, maybe the Prime Minister thinks he can make good on very little promises. They are baby steps, I guess.
My constituents, like others in agriculture based ridings, resent the government for holding its farmers and cattle producers hostage. The very reason that communities in my riding exist is the agriculture industry. They exist thanks to it. International farm machinery manufacturing facilities like Morris Industries in Yorkton and even the town of Esterhazy, home to IMC Kalium Canada, the world's largest potash mines, know how vital farmers are to the country.
Our farmers and ranchers have suffered through droughts and poor markets, and now BSE, virtually alone. The Liberals have repeatedly ignored pleas from our food providers all while millions have gone to fund this government's latest scam.
I will have to finish later, Mr. Speaker.

Peter Adams Peterborough, ON
Mr. Speaker, it is the ultimate example of an ideal partnership, combining the best knowledge, expertise and collaborative efforts from the public and private sectors throughout the region: the Peterborough DNA cluster project. It is a superb example of an ideal partnership.
Project partners include Trent University, Fleming College, Industry Canada, the Peterborough Partnership Group, the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and the Greater Peterborough Economic Development Corporation.
Initial projects include automation of DNA sample collection, wildlife and commercial stock management through DNA profiling, potential for improved DNA forensic applications for criminal justice, and disease prevention, management and control.
With a prime location, skilled workforce and a reputation as a major centre for innovative research and development, Peterborough was the ideal choice for a project of this importance.
Whistleblower Protection
Statements By Members
1:55 p.m.
Canadian Alliance
Darrel Stinson Okanagan—Shuswap, BC
Mr. Speaker, on March 27, W5 exposed corruption and cover-up at Canada's High Commission in Hong Kong.
One of those trying to protect Canada's interests was immigration control officer Brian McAdam, who discovered that known Chinese criminals were being admitted into our country. After filing many reports with many superiors, Brian McAdam was drummed out of Canada's foreign service, his career and his health destroyed.
Another whistleblower was RCMP corporal Robert Read, a 24 year veteran of the force. After getting no results through internal channels, he went public with his concerns and was fired. Although Corporal Read was cleared and actually commended by the RCMP internal review committee, he still does not have his job back.
The facts about Brian McAdam and Robert Read show why Bill C-25, the new whistleblower protection law, is inadequate and should have no time limit. The government should be protecting Canada, not the old boys' network.
Vince Ryan Memorial Tournament
Statements By Members
2 p.m.
Rodger Cuzner Bras D'Or—Cape Breton, NS
Mr. Speaker, today I wish to express thanks to the organizers of the Vince Ryan oldtimers hockey tournament. From its humble beginnings 15 years ago with 12 teams to this year's incredible 152 teams, the Vince Ryan has become the most significant winter tourism event on Cape Breton Island.
Hosting teams from across Atlantic Canada, Ontario and Alberta, this year's event was highlighted by the participation of the L.A. Chill women's team from Los Angeles, California.
The economic impact of the event on our local economy is tremendous, dumping in over $3 million over the four day competition.
To tournament organizer Richie Warren, his board of directors and the huge army of volunteers, I wish to offer my thanks and congratulations. The host communities should take great pride in the incredible hospitality shown their guests.
The continued efforts of these committed people have been the catalyst that has allowed the Vince Ryan oldtimers tournament to become one of the best adult hockey events not only in Atlantic Canada but in the entire country.

Guy St-Julien Abitibi—Baie-James—Nunavik, QC
Mr. Speaker, the former premier of Saskatchewan, Roy Romanow, says he agrees with Ottawa's decision not to increase funding for health in the federal budget brought down on March 23. He said:
Adding $2 billion to medicare without first agreeing on the reforms would be an unwise use of taxpayer dollars.
Money injected into an unreformed system would be swallowed up and the provinces would only demand more.
If Ottawa simply added to the base, as the provinces want...it would probably not be a very good idea.
Mr. Romanow said he agreed with the provincial premiers that there needs to be an increase in federal funding, but the provincial governments forget to mention that he recommended starting by introducing changes so that the health care system is able to meet the current needs of Canadians.
The Prime Minister of Canada said that a reformed system could improve the health of Canadians.
Montréal Games

Marlene Jennings Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Lachine, QC
Mr. Speaker, I would like my colleagues to join me in wishing good luck to the 5,000 children between the ages of 6 and 12 who are participating in the 27th edition of the Montréal Games.
Since yesterday, these sports enthusiasts have been competing with one another in 24 sport disciplines, from track and field to water polo. The competitions are being held mainly at the Complexe sportif Claude-Robillard and will end on Sunday.
In addition to instilling healthy living habits in all these children, this event helps them to discover the rewards of setting personal goals.
On behalf of all the members of this House, I would like to congratulate these young athletes. Bravo.

Mr. Speaker, there are currently three big federal issues in my riding. The first of which are the efforts to control the avian flu in the local poultry industry. On this front, I want to thank the agriculture minister for keeping me and my constituents informed about developments in this unfortunate saga, and also for intervening in an appropriate way when I have raised concerns on behalf of people affected by this poultry disease.
However, such cooperation is not evident in the transfer of the old CFB Chilliwack lands, a move that would permit the building of an impressive new education park. This would not cost the federal government a dollar, but holding up the paperwork could kill the project. Several universities are ready to start construction, and the provincial and local governments are ready to go.
We have been promised this transfer for years now. I urge the Treasury Board President and the Minister of National Defence to personally intervene to make this possible.
Finally, I urge the minister to start allocating funds under the softwood adjustment initiative, so that suffering communities and individuals in places like Boston Bar, Lillooet, Pemberton and Hope can plan and move ahead. Let us not wait until an election call to make it right. Let us do the right things, for the right reasons, right now.
Union des cultivateurs franco-Ontariens
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Don Boudria Glengarry—Prescott—Russell, ON
Mr. Speaker, this past Saturday, March 27, the franco-ontarian farm community was in a celebratory mood.
The Union des cultivateurs franco-ontariens was celebrating 75 years of existence. The UCFO began life as the Union catholique des fermiers de l'Ontario in 1929. Concerned about the future of agriculture, these farmers held meetings, provided training for fellow farmers, and worked generally to improve their industry, making every effort to preserve their language.
Seventy-five years later, UCFO is as dynamic as ever. It publishes a newsletter, Agricom , and continues to provide services to its membership.
On the occasion of this 75th anniversary, we extend congratulations to the UCFO, and President Pierre Bercier, CEO Nadia Carrier, and Agricom Editor Pierre Glaude. Long may it continue to serve the francophone agricultural community of Ontario.
François Bourque
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Jean-Yves Roy Matapédia—Matane, QC
Mr. Speaker, I would like to pay tribute to a young man from Gaspé by the name of François Bourque, who recently won the world junior downhill combined championship in Maribor, Slovenia.
His performance was one of the best at these championships, an additional honour on top of his previous two bronze medals plus a gold in the World Junior Super G in 2003. Quebec's hopes are pinned on this young downhill ski ace.
He has, moreover, been given the honour of having a run named after him at New Richmond's Pin Rouge ski resort.
François Bourque is Quebec's alpine skier of the future, and we feel it is a sure bet that he will have many more medals to his credit as the years go by. Congratulations to our Quebec champion; may he have many more equally great years ahead of him.
RAI International
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Carole-Marie Allard Laval East, QC
Mr. Speaker, today, I would like to reaffirm my support for the Italian-Canadian communities of Laval East and of other regions of Canada that are asking to have access to RAI International, the Italian digital television broadcasting network.
On Tuesday, along with other Liberal members, I met officials from RAI International to discuss the application submitted on September 15, 2003 to the CRTC.
RAI International is accessible in 215 countries in the world, but not here in Canada. The Italian-Canadian community is getting impatient. It has already presented a petition signed by over 106,000 people and over 330 letters to the CRTC, urging the commission to approve the application to add RAI International to the list of eligible services.
I strongly support this application for RAI International in Canada, because I believe that the Italian-Canadian community in Quebec and Canada should enjoy the same rights as other Italian communities around the world.

Monte Solberg Medicine Hat, AB
Mr. Speaker, it is the Liberal version of Fear Factor for soldiers. First, they fly in a 40 year old Hercules, followed by a hair-raising flight in a 40 year old Sea King. The final challenge is a trip to Afghanistan where they ride in a rusted out Iltis through minefields, while engaging Taliban and al-Qaeda fighters. Then it is back home again for six months before doing the same thing all over again in Haiti. Survive it all and they do not have to pay on their danger pay.
That is how the Liberals treat our soldiers in their flak jackets. However, if they are a Liberal flack their Fear Factor is that they might get left off the gravy train. In Liberal gravy train Fear Factor watch Earnscliffe, Groupaction and Groupe Everest go to a PMO dinner where the contestants will dine on fine French cuisine. Next comes a PMO wine tasting where contestants will consume $100 bottles of wine. Finally, it is the cash scramble where contestants grab millions in phony advertising contracts and untendered commissions.
The only losers in this orgy are the taxpayers of Canada. That is exactly why this reality show needs to be cancelled right now.

Serge Marcil Beauharnois—Salaberry, QC
Mr. Speaker, the One Tonne Challenge announced on March 26 by the Minister of the Environment is very important if we want to achieve Canada's goals regarding climate change.
Every one of us produces greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change. In fact, every Canadian produces, on average, about five tonnes of greenhouse gas per year.
Even though climate change is one of the most serious problems confronting our country and our planet, the good news is that each one of us can help by personally reducing our greenhouse gas emissions. Such initiatives will also provide numerous benefits locally, including cleaner air and more thriving and sustainable communities.
Canadians are proud of the role that they can play to protect the environment, whether it is through recycling, waste reduction or more energy efficient habits. The One Tonne Challenge is an invitation to all of us to take these next steps to achieve the national goal of reducing emissions by one tonne per person, or about 20%.

Peter Stoffer Sackville—Musquodoboit Valley—Eastern Shore, NS
Mr. Speaker, Canada's small and medium sized independent lumber producers are being driven out of business while the Liberal government dilly-dallies on the softwood lumber dispute. The situation grows worse with each passing day and the federal government does not care about the economic carnage being inflicted on the small operators.
A recent independent study confirmed that shipments from Canada's small and medium sized lumber operations dropped last year, while Canada's largest lumber producers were at record highs. The big are getting bigger and the small are being driven out of business.
What does the tired, old Liberal government do about the asymmetrical impact of the dispute and the disproportionate injury it is inflicting on Canada's small and medium sized independent lumber operations? It has proposed to make this permanent. That is right. Officials are proposing to take away market share from the little producers and give it to the big guys, under a poorly designed quota proposal based on a faulty reference period, the very reference period where the small operators exports are down while the big guys are up.
The Prime Minister says that he wants to end cronyism. Well, it must begin with the lumber file, and that begins with fair treatment of Canada's small and medium sized producers. We say to Canada's small producers, do not vote Liberal or Conservative, vote NDP--

Inclination for Speed - Page 3
Training Mode
Ironically, the treadmill is many elite mountain runners' tool of choice for uphill training. It allows them to skip damaging downhills and train through icy winters. Start with 20 minutes a week at 10- to 15-percent grade. Add five to 10 minutes weekly, and, if you're up to it, work up to Gutierrez's non-stop 65 minutes at 15-percent grade.
Once a week, run up a 2000-foot climb just below your lactic-acid threshold to build efficiency and confidence. If you have no mountains nearby, run the stairs of a high-rise. Zac Freudenburg, who placed eighth last year at the World Long Distance Mountain Running Championship, trains in a 45-story building in his hometown of St. Louis, Missouri.
"Use lunges, squats and box jumps to strengthen the exterior hip muscles (gluteus maximus and hamstrings), which provide about 75 percent of your vertical power on hills," says Dr. Heiderscheit, who says the calf muscles produce horizontal thrust and support the mid-foot landing, adding, "If you aren't accustomed to landing on your toes, do calf raises for four to eight weeks to build the requisite strength."
Tough Climbs
Danny Dreyer, author of Chi Running and a renowned coach who integrates tai-chi principles into trail running, recommends turning your hips to the side to take the workload off your quads and hamstrings, and better engage your core muscles when going up steep inclines to avoid exhausting your legs.
Diagonal Feet. Facing uphill with your feet pointing at 12-o'clock, turn only your feet to 10-o'clock. Keep your feet at this angle as you run, slightly crossing your feet in front of each other.
Arm power. "The key is to engage your side (oblique) stomach muscles, by accentuating the motion of the downhill arm," says Dreyer. "Swing the arm strongly across your body and up to your chin, just like an upper cut."
Change Sides. After about six to 10 steps, switch sides by moving your feet to a two-o'clock position.

Double-wall construction keeps water cold twice as long, while our innovative Jet Valve™ ensures you're drinking the water, not wearing it.
CamelBak is the official hydration sponsor for the pro cycling team Garmin-Sharp-Barracuda. The team uses Podium bottles in training and during races.
Learn More >
Double-wall construction keeps water cold twice as long as regular sport bottles
Innovative, self-sealing Jet Valve™ eliminates splatters and spills
Lightweight, easy-squeeze bottle delivers the right flow to quench your thirst
100% Free of BPA and BPS
TruTaste™ polypropylene with HydroGuard™ lets you taste your water, not your bottle.
Positive lockout for leakproof transport
Wide-mouth opening is easy to fill with ice and water and a breeze to clean
Also keeps warm beverages warm during cool weather rides
Dishwasher Safe: All parts are top-rack dishwasher safe
CamelBak® Got Your Bak™ Guarantee: If we built it, we'll Bak it™ with our lifetime guarantee.
The Podium® Chill cap is dishwasher-safe and easy to clean. Remove the cap assembly, making sure the Jet Valve™ lockout is open, and place it with the bottle on the top rack of your dishwasher. For best results, we recommend avoiding high-heat settings such as 'sanitary clean' or 'heat boost' which may distort plastic components. We don't recommend forcing a brush or other cleaning tool through the Jet Valve cross-slit (i.e. where you drink).
The thin double wall bottle could be warped by dishwasher heat so we recommend hand wash for the bottle.
Please note that the Podium caps are primarily composed of two components: the Jet Valve™ and the silicone nozzle. To wash the cap by hand, pull off the silicone nozzle and wipe cap with a soapy sponge. Rinse thoroughly and snap the nozzle back on. Do not disassemble small parts of the cap Jet Valve. Disassembly of the plastic cap could lead to leaks or product malfunction.
I'm used to the CamelBak bite valve, where's the bite valve on this bottle?
The Podium® Bottle and Podium® Chill are designed specifically for cycling, offering optimum, hassle-free hydration via an innovative feature called the CamelBak® Jet Valve™. Made from medical-grade silicone and designed to flow automatically when you squeeze the bottle, the Jet Valve vents pressure and seals shut automatically when you're done. It's simple—no biting involved. So say goodbye to yanking your old pop-top bottle open with your teeth and bashing it shut on your hip, as well as bothersome drips and leaks.
OK, I get the Jet Valve™, but do I still need to suck on the nozzle to drink?
It's your choice. You can either put the nozzle between your lips, or just open your mouth and squirt. The Jet Valve™ opens automatically when you squeeze, then shuts automatically to prevent drips. Since there's no pop-top valve to shut off, you can guide the nozzle into helmet vents easily without accidentally shutting off the valve.
Explain the lockout valve under the nozzle. Do I need to shut this off every time I drink?
No. The Jet Valve™ keeps your bottle sealed and drip-free during use. The rotary valve under the nozzle on the cap is actually a secondary lock-out. We recommend using the lock-out exclusively for storage, i.e. if you're storing the bottle in a bike bag or trunk. Leave it open during rides or for easy access when you're drinking from the bottle. You can also lock out your backup bottle on the bike to prevent any unexpected squirts from potholes or other big hits.
How does the Podium® Chill Bottle insulation work?
The Podium® Chill features a unique, low-profile double-wall construction with a layer of airtight, insulating foam. Compared to other insulated bike bottles that can be stiff or bulky (or both), the Chill bottle is lightweight, easy to squeeze, and fits a lot of water volume into a small space. That's why we call it, "Cool without Compromise."
Can I put sports drinks in the Podium® Bottle or Podium® Chill Bottle?
Absolutely. However, make sure to clean the bottle thoroughly after each use.
Can I use carbonated beverages?
Yes. The Jet Valve™ automatically vents pressure so that "fizz" will not cause pressure buildup. Please note, if the lockout is shut off, there will be pressure buildup, which isn't dangerous, but could lead to unexpected spray when opened.
Can I put hot liquids in it?
Warm beverages are OK in the Podium® provided they're not hot enough to burn your mouth. Extra-hot or boiling water can distort the plastic in the bottle but warm tea is a nice treat for a cold ride.
Is the bottle microwave-safe?
We don't recommend heating the bottle in a microwave since contents can heat unevenly. We only recommend putting warm liquids in the Podium® and Podium® Chill Bottles.
Can I freeze the bottle?
You can freeze the bottle, but before you do, make sure that the bottle is only partially full. We recommend only 3/4 full to allow for expansion of the water as it freezes to ice. Place the bottle in the freezer right side up. Remember: you won't be able to drink until components have thawed.

Used for MTB, liked the idea of an insualted bottle. Found that the valve, although super cool, did not do anything a regular valve does not. I get thirsty, I like to pump the bottle and have a blast of water - maybe 1/4 - 1/3 of the bottle sometimes. After a few uses the seam around the lid would open using this action and send a stream of water or sport drink down my chin, neck and front. Not really where I wanted it. If you were using this as a sipper bottle it would be great. Otherwise, it leaks all over the place. Fail for me.

Podium Chillin on a Boat
By joshonabike
from Chino Hills, CA
Comments about CamelBak Podium® Chill 21oz:
I am a cyclist and, yes, I absolutely 100% agree with everyone here who has stated that this bottle is PERFECT for Cycling and Mountain Biking. The bottle fits great with the various bottle cages I've used on my bikes and on bikes I've rented. NO ISSUES with bottle cage fitment.A nice accessory for mountain bikers is the CamelBak Mud Cap designed for this bottle. It keeps dirt out of the valve!Where we've had more fun with the Podium Chill bottles is out on the boat. The Spill-Proof Jet-Valve works AWESOME when not in the Locked feature, which is a brilliant idea…Thanks CamelBak!Because we don't have to worry about spilling, we fill these up completely with as much ice as we can fit into the bottles, then add our fun river / lake beverages.We fill up as many bottles as we can take, usually three per person, so we can save more room for ice and food in the coolers. It gets up to 114 degrees out on the Mojave River and these bottles keep our drinks cool, even when floating with us in the water.These bottles are amazing and can definitely be used in other ways besides just cycling!PROS:+ They Float on the water+ Lockout Feature to prevent spilling+ Spill-Free even when unlocked+ Keeps drink cool for 1-2 hours in 114 degree weather+ Fits almost any Bottle Cage+ Durable if dropped (over and over again)+ Jet-Valve delivers just the right amount of fluidCONS:- Make sure to keep valve open / unlocked if washing in Dish Washing Machine- Jet-Valve takes some effort to clean- May need Q-Tips if you want to prevent mold from building up in Jet-ValveAt the end of the day, the Podium Chill Bottle is an awesome product for any athlete or party-goer!!

By DNA Ride Ride
from Newnan, GA
I teach spin classes and had to move to a bottle that delivered water (quickly) because the time between tracks is only seconds. I do not have problems with it dripping all over the place. Once I learned to clean the valve it has been the greatest water bottle!! I also use this for cycling outdoors. Delivers water quickly with a squeeze, easy cleaning, have not had any problems.

Love hate relationship
By sortacrazy
from Sacramento Ca.
I use it for EVERYTHING but only with water, doesn't leak, stays cold. Only thing I would change is an easier way to keep the valve clean. I have broken the special seal trying to get it clean. Dishwasher doesn't seem to do the job, and I seldom have it empty long enough. When I lost my first one I went right out and bought another. I love it. Except for the cleaning thing.
Cold and Reliable
By trail rider
from DFW area, TX
I usually carry two of these on my bike. The night before a ride I pop them in the freezer, half to 3/4 filled with water. The insulation of the bottle ensures cool drinking water on my rides. I've been using the same bottles for a year without one single issue.

Works fine if you suck the water out, but squirting it doesn't work as it integrates too much air into the flow and causes it to squirt out everywhere. Not worth the price

A case for God
Most of the modern world's religions are based on what some consider fairy stories, and folk tales from centuries ago. We understand these stories can stretch the credibility of logical, thinking people, but don't our modern understandings provide an obvious although often overlooked clue? We really don't need faith in fables to accept a Grand Creator; just a little common sense and observation will do.
The greatest thing we have going for us in this world is predictability. Everything always behaves according to strict, immutable, uncompromising, law. Consequently we can order our lives to the degree that we understand and manipulate things in accordance with these laws. We generally refer to them as the "Laws of Nature." They keep the stars and planets, and the movement within atomic structures in their proper orbits. Our cars start every morning, because they have been constructed in strict accordance with these laws.
The scientific community loves to theorize about how the universe got started, or how life developed, but they never seem to wonder where these controlling laws come from. They take for granted that they are just the way things are. They certainly are that, but how did they come to be? Surely they didn't crawl out from a slime bed on the ocean shore. If there was a slime bed, it was the inevitable result of nature's laws. If there was a big bang it was caused and controlled by the effect of these laws. Nothing ever just happens without a cause. These laws rule material existence. All of the progress that humanity has made over the centuries has been due to the pursuit of understanding these laws of nature, and working in concert with them.
There are no logical explanations for the birth or existence or of laws that control everything, such as laws of gravity, chemistry, electricity, physics, etc.? They certainly contradict the idea of coincidence, as coincidence would indicate a lack of control or predictability. Control without purpose never happens; it is the result of purpose. There are no events of happenstance. The only thing that is unpredictable dear reader is how you may react to this article, or the reaction of any human mind to any particular stimuli. Informed or uninformed, we have a choice.
All the creatures on earth except humans are programmed by their instincts for certain predictable motivations that tend to ensure their survival. Humans alone have the ability to study, contemplate, solve complex problems, and manage their lives accordingly. We are the only creatures that have complete freedom of choice in all our affairs; as a result we develop into beings that run the gamut from genius to the most horrific monsters, depending upon the choices we make. Part of this is because we think we can do whatever we want, as long as no one catches us. I knew someone who in dieting to lose weight would get up at night and eat like a wolf. The person seemed to think that if no one saw them eating it wouldn't count.
We have been given laws that govern us, just as everything else is. We suffer for the misuse of our minds, just as we suffer for the misuse of anything else. We lose mental dexterity and honest perception, both necessary to a productive life, if we misuse our brains in ways they were not meant for. We can recognize problems, but dwelling on negativity, resentment, hatred, envy, jealousy selfishness, etc. causes a loss of one's ability to think clearly, and perceive reality. As a result we bring all kinds of unhappiness, and trouble into our lives. The pity is that too often our mistakes affect others also.
Controlling laws maintain order in everything. Their absence would be complete chaos. They must come from an overall, abiding, purposeful, intelligence. One person who agreed with me on this, objected only to calling it God. Call it what you will; it is greater and more presiding than we can ever understand. May God bless America.

At recent workshops in Lima and Bogota, Global Footprint Network explored the implications of ecological limits and biocapacity for the global climate negotiations at Copenhagen and beyond. The workshops were part of multi-day seminars on climate change organized by the University of Cambridge Programme for Sustainability Leadership and sponsored by the British Foreign Commonwealth Office.
The discussions looked at carbon in the context of a "peak everything" era in which human pressure on nature is reaching a critical tipping point across a range of natural systems. It described how such a framework could actually provide a strong motivator for action that has heretofore been somewhat lacking from the climate change dialogue. Participants in the two seminars came from all across South America.
At a three-day program in Lima, Senior Associate Steve Goldfinger met with corporate and government representatives to look at Footprint trends and what those will mean for the economy and the marketplace. The session used a "wedge framework" to consider different types of solutions that could help end ecological overshoot. Participants then brainstormed about opportunities for businesses that are early adopters in developing products and services that advance these solutions.
The five-day program in Bogota was designed to encourage regional cooperation among South American governments in addressing climate change. Goldfinger emphasized that in a world grappling with multiple ecological limits, from carbon build-up in the atmosphere to food shortages and biodiversity loss, the system perspective provided by the Ecological Footprint helps ensure that solutions to mitigate climate change don't simply transfer demand elsewhere in the biosphere. Goldfinger also explained how continued access to and careful management of biocapacity will play an increasingly critical role in a country's ability to maintain its economy and provide a decent quality of life for its citizens.
Both sessions suggested that, contrary to the current "Wait and see what others do" attitude that has hindered the current climate negotiations, it is in the self-interest of businesses and governments to be early adopters and drive change, rather than be steamrollered by it.
"While Copenhagen is critical, it is in a country's best interest to act and act soon, regardless of what happens in Copenhagen," Goldfinger said. "Sometimes Copenhagen is looked at as a burden. I think we helped shift that perspective to: 'If I want to maintain a robust economy and the well-being of my people, its important to act soon and act aggressively.'"

This booklet will help you understand:1) what indoor biological pollution is2) whether your home or lifestyle promotes its development3) how to control its growth and buildup.Outdoor air pollution in cities is a major health problem. Much effort and money continues to be spent cleaning up pollution in the outdoor air. But air pollution can be a problem where you least expect it, in the place you may have thought was safest -- your home. Many ordinary activities such as cooking, heating, cooling, cleaning, and redecorating can cause the release and spread of indoor pollutants at home. Studies have shown that the air in our homes can be even more polluted than outdoor air.Many Americans spend up to 90 percent of their time indoors, often at home. Therefore, breathing clean indoor air can have an important impact on health. People who are inside a great deal may be at greater risk of developing health problems, or having problems made worse by indoor air pollutants. These people include infants, young children the elderly and those with chronic illnesses.
Biological pollutants are or were living organisms. They promote poor indoor air quality and may be a major cause of days lost from work or school, and of doctor and hospital visits. Some can even damage surfaces inside and outside your house. Biological pollutants can travel through the air and are often invisible.
Some common indoor biological pollutants are:
Some of these substances are in every home. It is impossible to get rid of them all. Even a spotless home may permit the growth of biological pollutants. Two conditions are essential to support biological growth nutrients and moisture. These conditions can be found in many locations, such as bathrooms, damp or flooded basements, wet appliances (such as humidifiers or air conditioners), and even some carpets and furniture.Modern materials and construction techniques may reduce the amount of outside air brought into buildings which may result in high moisture levels inside. Using humidifiers, unvented heaters, and air conditioners in our homes has increased the chances of moisture forming on interior surfaces. This encourages the growth of certain biological pollutants.
Most information about sources and health effects of biological pollutants is based on studies of large office buildings and two surveys of homes in northern U.S. and Canada. These surveys show that 30% to 50% of all structures have damp conditions which may encourage the growth and buildup of biological pollutants. This percentage is likely to be higher in warm, moist climates.
Some diseases or illnesses have been linked with biological pollutants in the indoor environment. However, many of them also have causes unrelated to the indoor environment. Therefore, we do nut know how many health problems relate only to poor indoor air.
All of us are exposed to biological pollutants. However, the effects on our health depend upon the type and amount of biological pollution and the individual person. Some people do not experience health reactions from certain biological pollutants, while others may experience one or more of the following reactions:
Except for the spread of infections indoors, ALLERGIC REACTIONS may be the most common health problem with indoor air quality in homes. They are often connected with animal dander (mostly from cats and dogs), with house dust mites (microscopic animals living in household dust), and with pollen. Allergic reactions can range from mildly uncomfortable to life-threatening, as in a severe asthma attack. Some common signs and symptoms are:
Health experts are especially concerned about people with asthma These people have very sensitive airways that can react to various irritants, making breathing difficult. The number of people who have asthma has greatly increased in recent years. The number of people with asthma has gone up by 59 percent since 1970, to a total of 9.6 million people. Asthma in children under 15 years of age has increased 41 percent in the same period, to a total of 2.6 million children. The number of deaths from asthma is up by 68 percent since 1979, to a total of almost 4,400 deaths per year.
Are you concerned about the effects on your health that may be related to biological pollutants in your home? Before you discuss your concerns with your doctor, you should know the answers to the following questions. This information can help the doctor determine whether your health problems may be related to biological pollution.
INFECTIOUS DISEASES caused by bacteria and viruses, such as flu, measles, chicken pox, and tuberculosis, may be spread indoors. Most infectious diseases pass from person to person through physical contact. Crowded conditions with poor air circulation can promote this spread. Some bacteria and viruses thrive in buildings and circulate through indoor ventilation systems. For example, the bacterium causing Legionnaire's disease, a serious and sometimes lethal infection, and Pontiac Fever, a flu-like illness, have circulated in some large buildings.
TOXIC REACTIONS are the least studied and understood health problem caused by some biological air pollutants in the home. Toxins can damage a variety of organs and tissues in the body, including the liver, the central nervous system, the digestive tract, and the immune system.
Checking Your HomeThere is no simple and cheap way to sample the air in your home to determine the level of all biological pollutants. Experts suggest that sampling for biological pollutants is not a useful problem-solving tool. Even if you had your home tested, it is almost impossible to know which biological pollutant(s) cause various symptoms or health problems. The amount of most biological substances required to cause disease is unknown and varies from one person to the next.
Does this make the problem sound hopeless? On the contrary, you can take several simple, practical actions to help remove sources of biological pollutants, to help get rid of pollutants, and to prevent their return.
Self-Inspection: A Walk Through Your HomeBegin by touring your household. Follow your nose, and use your eyes. Two major factors help create conditions for biological pollutants to grow nutrients and constant moisture with poor air circulation.

Before you give away the family pet or move, there are less drastic steps that can be taken to reduce potential problems. Properly cleaning and maintaining your home can help reduce the problem and may avoid interrupting your normal routine. People who have health problems such as asthma, or are allergic, may need to do this and more. Discuss this with your doctor.
Water in your home can come from many sources. Water can enter your home by leaking or by seeping through basement floors. Showers or even cooking can add moisture to the air in your home. The amount of moisture that the air in your home can hold depends on the temperature of the air. As the temperature goes down, the air is able to hold less moisture. This is why, in cold weather, moisture condenses on cold surfaces (for example, drops of water form on the inside of a window). This moisture can encourage biological pollutants to grow.There are many ways to control moisture in your home:
Maintain And Clean All Appliances That Come In Contact With Water
Have major appliances, such as furnaces, heat pumps and central air conditioners, inspected and cleaned regularly by a professional, especially before seasonal use. Change filters on heating and cooling systems according to manufacturer's directions. (In general, change filters monthly during use.) When first turning on the heating or air conditioning at the start of the season, consider leaving your home until it airs out.
Have window or wall air-conditioning units cleaned and serviced regularly by a professional, especially before the cooling season. Air conditioners can help reduce the entry of allergy-causing pollen. But they may also become a source of biological pollutants if not properly maintained. Clean the coils and rinse the drain pans according to manufacturer's instructions, so water can-not collect in pools.
Have furnace-attached humidifiers cleaned and serviced regularly by a professional, especially before the heating season.
Follow manufacturer's instructions when using any type of humidifier Experts differ on the benefits of using humidifiers. If you do use a portable humidifier (approximately 1 to 2 gallon tanks), be sure to empty its tank every day and refill with distilled or demineralized water, or even fresh tap water if the other types of water are unavailable For larger portable humidifiers, change the water as recommended by the manufacturer. Unplug the appliance before cleaning. Every third day, clean all surfaces coming in contact with water with a 3% solution of hydrogen peroxide, using a brush to loosen deposits Some manufacturers recommend using diluted household bleach for cleaning and maintenance, generally in a solution of one-half cup bleach to one gallon water When any household chemical, rinse well to remove all traces of chemical before refilling humidifier.
Empty dehumidifiers daily and clean often. If possible, have the appliance drip directly into a drain. Follow manufacturer's instructions for cleaning and maintenance. Always disconnect the appliance before cleaning.
Clean refrigerator drip pans regularly according to manufacturer's instructions. If refrigerator and freezer doors don't seal properly, moisture may build up and mold can grow. Remove any mold on door gaskets and replace faulty gaskets.
Clean Surfaces
Dust ControlControlling dust is very important for people who are allergic to animal dander and mites. You cannot see mites, but you can either remove their favorite breeding grounds or keep these areas dry and clean. Dust mites can thrive in sofas, stuffed chairs, carpets, and bedding. Open shelves, fabric wallpaper, knickknacks, and venetian blinds are also sources of dust mites. Dust mites live deep in the carpet and are not removed by vacuuming. Many doctors suggest that their mite-allergic patients use washable area rugs rather than wall-to-wall carpet.
Protect yourself by inspecting your potential new home. If you identify problems, have the landlord or seller correct them before you move in, or even consider moving elsewhere.
Carefully read instructions for use and any cautionary labeling on cleaning products before beginning cleaning procedures.

Three arrested after capture attempt
What started out Tuesday as an attempt to bring a fugitive into custody ended with the suspect and two others charged with interfering with police.
Fort Dodge Police officers were getting ready to arrest Kalen K. Crandall, 24, of Fort Dodge, on charges of probation violation and third-degree theft.
Police Chief Tim Carmody said Officer Keaton Lunn had seen Crandall going into the house at 813 S. 18th St. around lunch time.
According to Carmody, Lunn went to the door and asked Dennis Crandall, 50, the father of the suspect, if he could search the house for his son. The elder Crandall refused to let Lunn in.
Other officers responded to the scene, but Dennis Crandall still refused to admit officers into his home. Eventually, the officers took the elder Crandall into custody and then entered the house to look for the younger Crandall.
"Officers attempted to get Kalen to comply with lawful orders to come down, but Kalen refused to comply," according to Carmody, who said the younger Crandall was hiding in the house's attic.
"Kalen was taken into custody a short time later," Carmody said.
In the process, Kalen Crandall had to be Tased, according to the criminal complaint. After that, he was arrested.
After the younger Crandall's arrest, Carmody said Nancy Kuske, 55, who also lives at 813 S. 18th St., arrived home and ignored officers' requests to leave. She was eventually arrested.
Kuske and Dennis Crandall were both charged with interference with official acts and accessory after the fact.
In addition to the original charges against him, Kalen Crandall was also charged with interference with official acts, as well as fourth-degree criminal mischief after he allegedly damaged a window in the Webster County Jail.
The three made their initial appearances in Webster County Magistrate Court Wednesday morning.
District Associate Court Judge Angela Doyle, who presided over the hearing due to a conflict of interest with Magistrate William Habhab, ordered Kalen Crandall held on $8,300 bond. Both Dennis Crandall and Kuske were released with supervision to the Department of Adult Corrections.
The younger Crandall's preliminary hearing has been set for Feb. 13.

>Runner's World - My Event Ratings>
In short: Flat, Windy, but £41 for a 10 mile - really?In full: A nice route taking in the main sights of Southsea and Portsmouth. Very flat and if there was no wind factor then a very fast time is achievable. The entry fee of £41 for a 10 mile race is shocking. It's another Event ticked off the list but I won't be back. Whilst BUPA do a great job with the overall organisation of these events and whilst they continue to grow in numbers the price will only go up and up in future. Date of review: October 31, 2013
In short: 3rd year running - It just gets betterIn full: My 3rd year at the BGBR. A great event and very likely to return again next year.A tough undulating route might make a PB a big ask but that is what makes the race what it is. Superb atmosphere and support. A rousing finishing on Broad Street.The usual gripe about BUPA events is of course the high entry fee and rubbish cotton t-shirt but of course they've got little incentive to do anything about it because it will always sell out and will only get bigger and bigger in the future. Overall, given that i live fairly local, the positives outweigh the negatives and I'll be back. However if I was someone who had to travel from afar and stay in a hotel etc. then I'd probably steer clear because of the cost.Date of review: October 31, 2013
In short: Quick - Enjoyable RaceIn full: Overall a nice fast flat course if a little dull through the Boots Estate.I think the drinks pouches were a great idea - No spillages. Easy to carry. I can't believe all the negative comments about them.I secured the 'Early Bird' discount so didn't pay as much as some other people here but agree that to pay extra for a fairly rubbish t-shirt is a bit cheeky. Nice medal. Nice race village and great support. A massive HM PB for me - I'll be back.Date of review: October 31, 2013
In short: Off road trail race In full: A long established event and so it is very well organised and marshalled and with other supporting races on top of the main 10k event, this makes for a good family day out catering for all abilities. This is 100% off road and although it is relatively flat, there are areas of long grass, narrow trails and even stiles making a PB time very unlikely. I finished 2 minutes slower than my average 10K time this year. One major thing that disappoints me is that the organisers don't appear to obtain a UKA or ARC race licence for this and so the results will not appear on runbritain / power of 10 or on the ARC equivalent site. This will impact whether I choose to come back again in future years.That aside it is a great event. Date of review: July 1, 2013
In short: Never fails to disappointIn full: My 3rd successive year at this race and as usual it is a great local, well supported and organised event. A challenging course, and yes you do have to save yourself for the 9th KM which isn't necessarily a steep ascent but it certainly goes on a long way and will take it out of you if you go off too quickly at the start. But this isn't the only uphill. There's a bit of a climb needed at around 3k and a fairly tough one at 5k just before you cross through the park. There is ample parking around the town centre if you allow plenty of time and a decent goody bad with a technical t-shirt thrown in - A vast improvement on last years offering. Instant results from the chip-timing van and a 4.3k fun-run as well as a 1m shorter run make this a great event for all abilities.Well done as ever Aldridge RC. Will look out for next years race date and book it in the diary. Date of review: June 14, 2013
In short: Flat, scenic, enjoyable raceIn full: My 2nd time at the Event having previously run it in 2011. This is a fast, flat, mainly off-road route taking in the scenic Elvaston Castle and Country Park and surrounding areas. Previous comments mention the change of car park but I echo that this was well communicated and controlled on race day and a sensible 5 minute delay to the start time was allowed to ensure everybody made it. The route is slightly different to what I remember from 2 years ago but it generally fast and flat and good weather will always give an opportunity for a fast time.A vast improvement from my last run here is the technical t-shirt on offer - Great job. Once suggestion for improvement is that there should be a longer run-off area once you cross the finishing line. The run finishes on a fairly narrow path and with spectators and well wishers either side it can easily get congested. Overall this a great and well established event. Excellent value with a quality t-shirt. Well done Sinfin. Date of review: June 6, 2013
In short: Atmospheric, quick, well supported race In full: A great event if a little pricey. Fast flat course allows for a good PB opportunity but with 4,000 entries you get a great buzz from taking part in a mass participation event. Agree with the comments about the goody bag - but the haribo sweets were welcome. Nice to have a tech t-shirt too rather than a cotton effort.I'll be back again. Date of review: May 2, 2013
In short: Superb Marathon warm-upIn full: Such a well established and well organised race. I'll be back again whether I'm running a Spring Marathon or not. The hoodie alone is worth the entrance fee. Outstanding race.Date of review: May 2, 2013
In short: Wonderful fast flat 10k in park settingIn full: A superbly organised 10k road race which is ideal for both first time/Beginner runners and 'Fasties' seeking a PB time. The Foundation for Conductive Education being based on the edge of Cannon Hill Park put on an excellent race allowing great use of the facilities beforehand with plenty of toilets, refreshments, storage facilities and somewhere to keep warm on a cold day. The route itself is a 2 lap fast flat course taking in the scenic Cannon Hill Park and a fairly long 'out n back' path all the way down to Kitchener Road, south of the park. After the run, the HQ had a wide range of cakes and drinks (and the chance to warm up again :) ) as well as a nice presentation ceremony with plenty of 'spot prizes' on offer. It's quite a low key event with around 170 runners but it has deservedly been growing in recent years and 2012 saw a record attendance. Furthermore the results were published within a few hours of the finish despite the fact there was no chip timing.All-in-all a great event and all in aid of a great cause too. From a personal viewpoint I'll remember this race for the rest of my life as it enabled me to break the 40 minute 10k barrier for the first time and successfully achieve a target I had set myself at the start of the year. Well done to all involved at the Foundation for Conductive Education. I look forward to running the race again.Date of review: November 5, 2012
In short: Fast, Flat, Well organised 10k - Great t-shirtIn full: My second year at this event and a new and improved course makes this a great local 10k road race.Excellent organisation and marshalling throughout. Much of the route is free from traffic and the results are issued fairly quickly after the race despite the fact that there isn't chip timing. An excellent technical t-shirt this year is a vast improvement from last years cotton effort and is probably worth the entry fee alone. Good work from Shelton Striders - I look forward to signing up again next year. Date of review: October 7, 2012

Most disheartening
When the Supreme Court declared it acceptable to abort our unborn babies, it was the first step in a long procession.
In the past 40 years we have experienced a culture that has evolved to the point that we value animals and trees more than our own babies.
This has cultivated a mind set in our country that has desensitized the value of life that has lead to random acts of violence against other human beings as we have seen in the recent massacres in schools, theaters, and malls.
The most disheartening to our community lately is the children we chosen to give birth to have so little value of human life that they are killing themselves.
How did we get to this point where our children don't have enough hope to carry on when things get tough?
You may be thinking this is a walk to stand against abortion and you right it is; however all of these things are connected through a timeline that started with Roe vs Wade and weaved it way through our homes, schools and communities.
Today I walk in memory of the many lives aborted over the past 40 years. And as I walk I will also remember those lives lost at the hands of people who don't value the sanctity of life as we do.
I also walk in the hope that our future generations and leaders will see us and remember that we are each a valued life sent from God to fulfill his ultimate purpose, which is to share his love with one another.

I can understand the dislike of Nintendo since their focus is more on their first party titles and casual titles. Still they do seem like they're getting with the times now. Unless 4K televisions become affordable in 3-4 years then Nintendo screwed their console specs up again!
quote BossmanG3... *Takes out swords.* Decided to storm it after all. >:l Capcom, I don't care if your body isn't ready, I will ravage your poor decision-making skills.But no localization plans -_- as usual
So dude, other then farming fatty for two years anything new in your life?

quote HannersHehe if you ever decide to storm Capcom's headquarters there'll be plenty of people ready to help you.Oh thank god. I was going to end up on the news for bringing an automatic weapon into the Capcom headquarters and making them port Monster Hunter onto the PS3 or PC at gunpoint. I'm glad I don't have to do that now. I -am- however still disappointed in a 3DS only release... I'm immensely bummed, as I neither plan on, or desire, buying a 3DS. I dislike Nintendo's systems quite a lot.
quote HannersBut no localization plans -_- as usualHowever, Frontier G for the PC/360 is good news. I'm so stoked...!
quote WakamanBeen pretty good. College is busy but fun. I was going to buy a Vita so I could continue the large backlog of games I need to play on the PSP, but the backwards compatability is limited so I guess I'll be buying another PSP. Aw wells.BossmanG3 how you been man?
quote ArcliffWakaman, you cba with Monster Hunter anymore? High five, bruv.
And it's shutting down because the owner decided to take up a new non game-related opportunity and he said he'll be really busy with little time for daily updates.
quote XtremeBladestaPretty much both. Mostly by pretty big companies.Is/was it mostly big games, or a lot of the obscure stuff that would otherwise be hard to find? I kinda assumed it would be about anime, considering you're... well, Arc lol

About the Author: Eran Williams serves as the Regional English Language Officer at U.S. Embassy Pretoria.
When the U.S. Embassy invited 13 English Access Microscholarship students to the pre-game reception and braai on the Embassy lawn Wednesday, we thought it would be a great opportunity for the teenagers from Mamelodi to interact with Americans. What we did not realize was that by the end of the party, the students would all be invited to the game that afternoon -- USA vs. Algeria. We also had no idea that this match would be one of the most inspiring in U.S. World Cup history. Thanks to U.S. Soccer for providing this once-in-a-lifetime experience to 13 South Africans, who otherwise would not have had the opportunity to see the World Cup soccer taking place in their own country.
Through the English Access Microscholarship program, the U.S. Embassy offers two-years of extra English language instruction to 140 under-served high school students in South Africa. In addition to the intensive English instruction, the program includes American content and interaction with the American community in South Africa. This was certainly a memorable taste of American spirit and history for these Access students.

wow, what an amazing experience for these young students, they are going to look back and remember this memory for a lifetime. I thought about going and thought about getting a cash advance to cover my flight, but decided not to go and promise to go next world cup.

Here's how RW members rated this race (154 votes).
In short: Essential event for the diary of anyone training for a Spring marathonIn full: This was my third visit to the Gloucester 20 in three years and the second on this new course to the east of the motorway. I wrote at some length in my review of the 2010 event and so will keep it brief this year! (I am also backfilling some gaps in my reviews, so this one is being written some time after the event.)In 2010, I found the new course quite disappointing compared with the old Longney/Epney course; the hills are about the same, but the course somehow feels a bit more enclosed and also has a section on a busy road. However, running it for the second time, I couldn't really highlight any particular faults with it and would certainly do it again.No particular comments to add this year. As for the run itself, I ran the first 18 miles at a steady 8-minute mile pace with fellow club member Brian, then struck out for home with a couple of 7-minute miles for a finish in 2:38. Nice technical T-shirt this year - thanks as usual to the organisers and the marshals. In conclusion, as nearly every reviewer has already observed, this is an excellent event for anyone training for London or another Spring marathon.Date of review: October 17, 2011
In short: Ideal pre-marathon testerIn full: Well organised, great parking and other facilities. Slightly low key start but a nice run through the Gloucestershire countryside afterwards. Lack of first water station caught me out a bit but overall a nice way to spend a Sunday morning. Thanks to all those who organised it.Date of review: March 29, 2011
In short: Good training for any marathon, but the open roads make for a rubbish last lap.Date of review: March 21, 2011
In short: Well done Gloucester ac. Great race lovely course and brilliant marshallsDate of review: March 15, 2011
In short: RonsealIn full: Timed to coincide with training for marathon runners. Scenic once out of the industrial estate. Good & useful t-shirt. Busier road junctions well marshalled, Water station not ready at far end of loop on first lap. Weather picked up throughout the day, possibly more water required but think the weather may have caught them outDate of review: March 14, 2011
In short: It does what it says - a 20 mile road raceIn full: Good organisation, although a quiet send off at the start. Nice tee-shirt and another 20 in the bag!Date of review: March 13, 2011
In short: No frills, well organised raceIn full: Good training for a Spring marathon [which most participants seemed to be doing] Not flat,but the three laps were not as bad as they sounded. Not many unattached runners, but good mix of speed and no crowding. Easy access and a great technical T shirtDate of review: March 13, 2011
In short: 3 lap race with hill climbsIn full: The hill climb was a tiring because it had to be climbed three times. The organisation was pretty good; although the end wasn't that obvious (I would have liked a sign saying 400 metres etc. The finish line its self was confusing because it wasn't obvious if it was at the start or end of the coned session. I wasn't offered a mug, not sure if they ran out of them? All in all a good hard training session for London Marathon; with a PB thrown in for good measure.Date of review: March 13, 2011
In short: Well marshalled, well organised and Very friendly.In full: Failed to complete due to injury, but very impressed by the set up. Good parking just off the motorway and a short way in we are in the country. Lots of helpful marshalls. Will definitely be trying again next year. Thanks to all that helped make it possible.Date of review: March 13, 2011
In short: Well organised rural road raceIn full: One of several 20-milers around this time obviously geared at the big spring marathons. Out, 3 laps of just over 6 miles and back. A couple of small hills but nothing to worry about really. Run on open roads but with limited traffic it never really was a problemEasy to get to, well marshalled, water stations every 3 miles and a banana and excellent technical t-shirt at the end. A great session and useful 20-miler in the bag!Date of review: March 13, 2011
