Grades have no direct impact on the overall score.
Spin On My Cock is up for review today, and this is one of those sites with a very unique gimmick, but not a ton to see for now. They rigged up this table that spins basically with a big hole cut out. A guy is lying underneath this table, and a girl will happen upon him (she's usually dressed as a maid). She the tugs, sucks, and fucks him generally all on the table, which will eventually start spinning her around during the action. It's very different from the norm! Just $10 a month gets you in the door thanks to a special discount for our users, plus access to the Massive Access network of sites.
Pretty interesting content!
I've kinda explained the gist of it already, and I think this is one you have to see to believe. However, I give them credit for trying something new, and it did make me want to hop on a plane and check it out myself. What exactly does a girl spinning around your cock feel like? It's gotta be fun.
Videos look great.
Everything is offered in high definition here, and the video quality is generally quite good. The photos are definitely more average, but the videos look above and beyond the norm for what we're used to seeing.
Network access included.
Thankfully, with so little to see, they hook you up with quite a few bonus sites with your membership. The site is part of two different networks, though I'm sure they overlap quite a bit: Massive Access and All Adult Pass. You get around 90 bonus sites to check out, which is a great secondary option.
Other Good Stuff:
Tiny site.
With 14 scenes only for now, there's just not nearly enough to check out here. I'd love to see some kind of minimum established as to what would constitute a member's area, though I don't think this site would quite qualify in my opinion. They need more content, fast.
Update dates don't seem to be true.
Their site shows semi-regular update dates (even the ones up there aren't very consistent), but the site just doesn't seem to grow that much according to our own content counts. Hopefully the updates can get on track and they can get growing.
Minor Negatives:
While the site is only so-so due to the size, I'd love to be an actor in one of their scenes!
Spin On My Cock is very unique in terms of content. They offer pretty fun scenes, plus they all look quite nice in high definition. However, the site is quite small, and the update schedule is a big question mark since I don't totally trust their update dates. Some things are a bit basic in terms of options and features, but the content is where it's at. The site isn't great, mostly due to the small collection, but the scenes are fun. I'd mostly love an invite over to feel what a girl spinning on your cock would feel like exactly. With frequent updates and a much larger collection, this would be more fun.

In War Horse, a hunter colt named Joey develops an impenetrable friendship with farm boy Albert (Jeremy Irvine). When the first world war arrives in England, Joey is thrown into the front line, but Albert must remain behind because he's not old enough to go to war. Before long, Joey's odyssey takes him through Europe, where he encounters friendly people who help in his quest to be reunited with Albert.
Much like the close-ups on human thespians, close-ups of Joey's face are used prominently. It sounds ridiculous - and to an extent, it is. But there's some animal-loving part of you that can't help but feel some tinge of emotion from looking at his face. If you let your imagination run free, you may detect a mild sense of his strife through the eyes. Mostly though, it's Spielberg taking horse acting way too seriously.
War Horse features one of the most intriguing, amusing scenes I've witnessed in a long time. Picture a British and a German soldier engaging in banter in the middle of no man's land, a momentary armistice created by a four-legged animal. The satire is genius; the irony of a horse bringing mankind together is unforgettably poignant. You're left with one question: could war be settled by a simple coin flip? It's an oversimplified solution to a complex issue, but it does raise plenty of 'what if' questions.

text: WAYNE, N.J. and SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., June 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals and Onyx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ONXX) today announced positive results from the Phase 3 DECISION trial investigating the use of Nexavar ® (sorafenib) tablets in patients with locally advanced or metastatic radioactive iodine (RAI)-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer. These data will be presented in a plenary session on June 2, 2013, at the 49th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) in Chicago, IL at 3:20pm CDT (Abstract #4). Sorafenib significantly extended progression-free survival (PFS), the primary endpoint of the study, compared to placebo. The median PFS was 10.8 months among patients treated with sorafenib, compared to 5.8 months among patients receiving placebo (HR=0.587 [95% CI, 0.454-0.758]; p<0.0001). PFS was evaluated by an independent radiological review committee using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Safety and tolerability in the study were generally consistent with the known profile of sorafenib. At the time of progression, patients had the option to cross over to open-label sorafenib at the discretion of the investigator; 71% of patients in the placebo arm received open-label sorafenib after progression; 27% of patients in the sorafenib arm received open-label sorafenib after progression. There was no statistically significant difference in overall survival between the treatment arms (HR=0.802 [95% CI, 0.539-1.194]; p=0.138), a secondary endpoint of the trial. Median overall survival has not yet been reached in either arm. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events across all grades occurring in >20% of patients taking sorafenib vs. placebo were hand-foot skin reaction (76.3% vs. 9.6%), diarrhea (68.6% vs. 15.3%), alopecia (67.1% vs. 7.7%), rash/desquamation (50.2% vs. 11.5%), fatigue (49.8% vs. 29.4%), weight loss (46.9% vs. 13.9%) hypertension (40.6% vs. 12.4), metabolic/laboratory (35.7% vs. 16.7%), anorexia (31.9% vs. 4.8%),oral mucositis (23.2% vs. 3.3%), pruritis (21.3% and 10.5%) and nausea (20.8% and 11.5%). Treatment-emergent adverse events led to discontinuation in 18.8% of patients who received sorafenib, compared to 3.8% of patients who received placebo. "While most patients with differentiated thyroid cancer are cured, there is a major treatment gap for patients whose cancer no longer responds to standard therapies," said Marcia Brose, M.D., Ph.D., principal investigator of the DECISION trial and Assistant Professor in the Abramson Cancer Center and the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. "The DECISION results demonstrate sorafenib's ability to extend progression-free survival compared to placebo in these patients, potentially providing a new treatment option for these patients." "This trial is representative of our continued commitment to fully understanding sorafenib's potential applicability, especially in hard-to-treat cancers where there are limited treatment options," said Kemal Malik, MD, Member of the Bayer HealthCare Executive Committee and Head of Global Development. "In the past 30 years, there have been no new treatment options approved for patients with radioactive iodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer," said Pablo J. Cagnoni, M.D., Executive Vice President, Global Research & Development and Technical Operations, Onyx Pharmaceuticals. "We are pleased with the results of the DECISION study, which demonstrate sorafenib's activity in patients who have no other treatment options." The Phase 3 DECISION data will form the basis for regulatory submissions of sorafenib for the treatment of RAI-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer. Submission of a supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) in the United States is planned for mid-year 2013, with additional submissions to follow globally. DECISION Trial DesignThe DECISION (stu Dy of soraf Enib in lo Cally advanced or metastat Ic patient S with radioactive Iodine refractory thyr Oid ca Ncer) trial was an international, multicenter, placebo-controlled study. A total of 417 patients with locally advanced or metastatic, RAI-refractory, differentiated thyroid cancer (papillary, follicular, Hurthle cell and poorly differentiated) who had received no prior chemotherapy, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, monoclonal antibodies that target VEGF or VEGF receptor, or other targeted agents for thyroid cancer were randomized to receive 400 mg of oral sorafenib twice daily (207 patients) or matching placebo (210 patients). Ninety-six percent of randomized patients had metastatic disease. The primary endpoint of the study was progression-free survival, as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Secondary endpoints included overall survival, time to progression, response rate and duration of response. Safety and tolerability were also evaluated.

You are herecontent / Protest Rove This Evening
Protest Rove This Evening
By MoveOn.org
Tonight Karl Rove will be the keynote speaker at a fundraiser in downtown Washington for Republican Congressman Jim Gerlach (PA-6th). Gerlach's election next year will be one of the toughest in the country so you'd think he'd be smart enough to keep his distance from Rove—who betrayed the identity of an undercover CIA operative. But Gerlach is sucking up to the Karl Rove cash cow. We need to draw attention to Gerlach's failure to put his patriotism before his political ambition.
So, here is the plan. Tonight we'll gather at 6:15 PM (or a little early) at 1700 Pennsylvania Ave NW for a peaceful protest (signs will be provided). The media is expected to attend and we especially expect media from Gerlach's hometown to attend. We'll have a peaceful picket for about 45 minutes with some chants while Rove is upstairs at the fundraiser, the media will get their pictures and footage and then we'll go home.
WHAT: "Fire Karl Rove

I am against Picketing, but I don't know how to show it.
Just one question. Why are you against picketing? This is not some labor strike. This is an expression of peoples' views which are counter to the views of those in power. Peaceful protest with signs expressing in a concise and effective manner the views of the opposition to the Bush administration are the way to get the message out for all to see and become interested.
People, you gotta start being on your own side, instead of the bad guys side....stick up for yourselves. No-one else will.
Peaceful protests and strikes are good for the people , therefore good for the country. Frankly, the ones who make them un-peaceful are goons hired by the bad guys.
Amen to that. Have you been following the SF Chronicle union negotiations? They've got their management all geared up to take over. They've got a manager who is treating the whole thing like a war game. They have temps ready to step in and take up the slack. This company wants their work done, but for very much less than they're paying out now. It's all about profit and to hell with the people who actually do the work. What comes to mind is that bible verse about not binding the mouths of the kine that tread the grain, or something along those lines.
I've never had something for nothing in all my life, and someone wants to take away what I've worked for all my life so they can increase their profits? I don't think so.
They not only underestimate our intelligence, but also our resolve.
But especially, they underestimate our numbers on the blogs.
Make a sign put it on a stick and when you see a group picteting walk around in front of them chanting "down with picketing". Sorry I couldn't resist that . The media isn't covering the issues but if we picket they will cover our civil disobedience and the message gets out. Pretty tricky eh?
I think Mitch is making a joke... you've got to maintain a sense of humor even faced with this Administration...
Some people might miss CSI if they picket.
Now that's important!
not one to butt in but Richard i think Mitch was being sarcastic as apposed to serious
Heh heh...Mitch said "pick it" ;)
and furthermore, there is NO talk about lowering the cost of living. Bush talks about sending jobs off shore since americans don't want them. We do want them. But the reason a person works is so that he/she can pay their expenses in this world. Prices keep going up...wages keep going down. Then throw in the piracy committed by companies like Enron, the fraudulent increases in insurance, the lack of regulation of any of this...and guess what? The American Middle Class is a thing of the past.
At 6:20 pm est, everybody that can, turn on all your electrictal apliances. run the hot water to activate your hot water heater (if electric)and all your electric appliances and perhaps it will knock out the elect grid! this is an old revolution tactic by Abbey Hoffman
It is about time,
Though better late then never.

After test drive a car I asked the sales person what is the price of the car and if they are running any specials, the sales agent is unable to provide you this information until you sing name commitment paper that you will buy a car if the price is right. After I signed the paper the games started until I told them that I really don't have time for this and at that point the sales manager (Chad) got upset and started mistreating me. This is a high pressure environment with all sorts of games and gimmicks, DO NOT waste your time.

EA's BATTLEFIELD 2142 for PC
The reason why i was so dawn to reviewing this game is because its not just another battlefield, this could have been named something completely different and it still would have been great. Its going everything that a MMOFPS needs holding grounds. Jumping and loads of big bangs in vehicles or on foot. The graphics are newer so more realistic this is an iconic game for setting stands for any future battlefield games. i believe EA have been very clearing with combining all these elements together for this title.
things like;
- Lots of modern gun (not like COD)
- New Vehicles that last longer then 5 seconds
- Newer Graphics to improve gameplay
- Titans (great new feature)
If you compare this games graphics to the other battlefield installations its very likely you will be amazed, been rendering, DX11 so improve physX and FPS(Frames Per Second), added support for not just DX10 but DX9 as well, older GFX cards and Newer one. there have been lots of updates to improve apon all this plus to inprove compatibility.
The Product was easy to install if you download from EA just click the install.exe and away you go just follow the on screen steps, the DVD retail is not much different just insert cd if autorun is enabled then just click install on pop up menu, if setup does not run straight away then double click on start and goto your DVD rom drive, and right click and select open then setup.exe.
This product proformance on my 3870 was on fun AA and resolution at 1440x900 got over 50 fps which is good, i would say anything above a 2900 ATI and 8600 would run this game on full with no problem.
i conclude this game is very good FPS and will remain on many peoples desk as there game they play as it will remain on mine.

welding in 4 link question
I have a 4 link for my mini tub 67 camaro, going to be mocking it up soon, when ready, is it best to stick weld it in or can i use my flux core welder with 35 wire?.. i have excess to a 110 stick welder, 40-100amp range with smaller rods. I have my flux core mig already.. just curios if i could use my flux core or not, whats best to use to get the weld strength and penitration for this type project
If you are using a 110 mig machine, using FCAW, I'd suggest tack welding the brackets and then taking the rear assembly to a fab shop that has a 220 volt mig welding machine for final welding.
Welding plate gauge components (anything heavier than 12 gauge) with 110 volt machine is a bad idea.
reason i ask, is i dont have excess to 220 in my garage attach to the house for a better welder.... spot welding brackets to rear end and taking else where not a problem, my issuse is the cross piece that has to be welded to the frame, car is not movable at the moment, frame off, just body on stands
For your long term safety,time to farm out this job.What gives a back haft strength goes beyond just the frame work.It involved the roll bar/cage as well and how that ties the front to the back.So the amount of welding on site is extensive.Either a flex core mig or a 110 stick welder does not provide enough penetration to fuse the metal together.It may appear as a good weld,but most certainly will fail.
yeah thats kinda what i was afraid of, ill figure something out in dew time for a better welder to get the job done right, dont want to launch hard and loose the *** end
The hidden underlying costs of any build is the tools and equipment that almost never gets any accounting for when you see a car at a car show or cruise night.That saving grace in investing it that is the long term returns long after the current car is long gone.
I wouldn't use a 110 machine to weld anything on a chassis..:nono::nono:
Oh I understand, unfortunately I don't have any space avaliable on my fuse panel to add a 240 breaker, I might be able to tie into the drier, and run an 240 outlet to the garage , down fall is I won't be able to run drier and a welder at the same time without breaker throw
Build the wife a clothes line and buy a 240v welder with the money you'll save.:D

Playground Plans Shaping Up
By John C. McLoughlin
Officials from the New York City Parks Department recently informed Councilman Al Stabile that the design phase for the planned renovations to the playground along Shore Front parkway between Beach 73 and 74 streets has been completed. The project was funded out of Stabile's Capital Budget at a cost of $538,000.
Among the improvements included in the project will be the reconstruction of the existing basketball court to include new mesh fencing, metal posts, drinking fountains and new asphalt. Additionally, the handball wall will be resurfaced where needed and repainted.
"The two-acres of parkland that this playground sits on will be completely refurbished for the enjoyment of everyone, especially those living in the towers across the street," Stabile said. "While plans were in the works to build the playground, the basketball and handball courts were included in the project in direct response to concerns expressed to my office from residents."
The playground section will include safety surfacing, bucket-seat children's swings, plastic slides with roofs to provide shade, a water draining system, trees, shrubs, and animal artwork. Benches will be erected in the playground and the entire area will be completely fenced in to prevent children from wandering out into Shore Front parkway. New trash receptacles, a flagpole and park identification plaque are also included.
According to the Parks Department, construction on the project is expected to begin in June 2001.

Talk to Brett at Bblades. Advice doesn't come any better than what he provides.
2006 Stingray 220 CS Loaded weight approx. 3300 lbs
Mercruiser 5.0 MPI 260 HP 1.62
Alpha Current prop: 21" Laser II SS
Smart Tabs installed, worked great
The Laser II dropped RPM's by about 300 rpm versus Black Max 21" aluminum 3 blade , speed up
1) 20" Alpha 4 four blade aluminum
2) 21" High 5 SS I understand the High 5 will be 150 to 300 rpm higher than my current 21" Laser II, that comes from Stingray. I have that much room for more rpm now. Tremendous difference in price between the two props.
The Alpha 4 is supposed to lose about 2-4 mph in top end, and dramatically increase reverse and slow speed steering. The High 5 is supposed to be marginally slower than the Laser II, a bit faster than the Alpha 4. Since I've seen no tests between the two, I don't know. Question is this. Does the High 5 maintain the great handling and slow-speed steering characteristics of the standard 4-blade props? If so, I'm headed towards one since I love the added cruising control of the SS props over the aluminum props.
My overall goal is to increase the terrible slow speed reverse steering, and give up as little top end as I have to in order to accomplish it. The gains from the 3 blade aluminum to the Laser II were more than I expected. I did lose RPM's, but the control and thrust I gained were measurable. Cruising is much better, a lot less slip. Towing power for tubes is night and day with the SS prop.
I want to remain with a SS prop. I'd like less bow lift, which I had with the standard prop. It rode better when the old aluminum was on it, this is a light boat, not a wave crasher.
It's a difficult boat to find the right prop for. Stingray's results have shown a Mirage Plus to be a poor choice for these boats. They also stated on the web site that possibly going to a 23" HI 5 works very well if I'm in the mid range of the rpm. I'd probably have to use a little venting with a 23", don't know.

Friday Favorites - The Romance Comic Covers of Nick Cardy
(December 1968/January 1969)
15 comments:
Fantastic! Cardy was one of my favorite romance cover artists (along with Giordano). There are a few more Nick Cardy romance covers at http://romancecomics.tumblr.com/tagged/cardyReplyDelete
- AnonymousNovember 4, 2011 at 4:50 PM
Thank you!ReplyDelete
GREAT covers!ReplyDelete
Groovy kind of love; thanks for sharing!
- AnonymousNovember 4, 2011 at 6:56 PM
Nick Cardy good.
Very awesome covers. But is "Doormat for Love" as awesome as it looks?ReplyDelete
- AnonymousNovember 5, 2011 at 2:44 AM
Cardy was the best, great penciler, even better inker. And I think he was better with the smaller art boards starting in the mid-60s. Carmine Infantino thought Cardy was the best. Only thing he did that I didn't like was all the superhero covers he did at the end of his time at DC. Of course, any art with a woman in it was something else -- always painfully terrific.ReplyDelete
Oh, I love Cardy's superhero covers too, especially the Action Comics ones.ReplyDelete
Great line-up, Jacque (are YOU a nice girl?). That Mom cover is a hoot, it reminds me of the UK TV show Hotter Than My Daughter.
- AnonymousNovember 5, 2011 at 9:22 PM
Totally agree -- few can top the romance covers of Nick Cardy. My favorite Cardy romance coverReplyDelete
is Super DC Giant No. S-17 presents Love 1970:
~Jake Oster
Sooooooo many good ones! Thanks for sharing your favorites everyone!!! I only wish he had drawn more romance. If you ever have a chance to meet Mr. Cardy at a convention, be sure to say hello. Not only an amazing artist, but such a kind man.ReplyDelete
Elaine -- to answer your question! "Doormat for Love" is as good as it looks! Stay tuned! I see it in our near future here at Sequential Crush!ReplyDelete
Jacque - Awesome! I do love things like this. I only have a small "collection" of these stories myself-- the deeply awesome "Romance Without Tears"-- and I'm fascinated by the whole genre.ReplyDelete
Thanks for sharing with us!
Cardy is a very talented artist, particularly good in the romance department. I'm especially fond of the "Get Lost!" cover.ReplyDelete
Hi Jacque,ReplyDelete
Falling in Love # 137's cover looks a little odd to my eye, as though another hand were involved besides Cardy. Perhaps some touch ups/alterations by Colletta, particularly the womans face.
Cardy did sign it with his initials -- hard to see on my scan, it got cut off a bit. I don't doubt anything though! It does have a not 100% Cardy quality to it...ReplyDelete

If anybody can justify a bout of the back-to-work jitters today, it is Dave Lewis. Not only does the long-serving Unilever director become the first outsider to take over the reins of Tesco, Britain's biggest retailer, but he is being drafted in a month earlier than planned.
Last Friday's second profits warning in six weeks, which was combined with the dividend being slashed and spending culled, confirmed that Tesco's crisis is deepening. Lewis is being painted as the superhero to save an institution that has badly lost its way.
It would be easy to be overwhelmed by the pressure. But as he sweeps into a meeting room at Unilever's art deco headquarters on the Embankment, Lewis is clearly buzzing with it. Tanned and wiry, with hair chopped short, greying at the sides, he is dressed in trendy dark jeans, chunky watch, white shirt with several buttons undone, carrying a cup of coffee and Moleskine notebook. Immediately, here is a break from the staid, buttoned-up Tesco era of predecessor Phil Clarke, even if, at 49, Lewis is only five years his junior.
"How can I help you?" he shoots across the table, pleasantries aside. No wonder Lewis has a reputation for putting the customer first. He is slick, but later comes a confession.
"I am wonderfully naïve about some of the stuff that is going to come but that is fine, it has served me well up to now," he says, vowels flat from his Yorkshire upbringing. "I will do what I have to do tomorrow in the same way that I did things yesterday."
Tesco has swapped one company lifer for another. Clarke, who began work 40 years ago as a schoolboy in the store his father managed, is being succeeded by Lewis, who planned to leave Unilever after two years to run his own business but instead has jetsetted through postings in South America, Indonesia and back to Britain in a 27-year career. The debate rages over whether the one-time marketer, who sold Dove soap and TRESemmé shampoo by the bucket load, is the right man to stop the rot. For his part, he couldn't resist answering the call.
"I needed to find out for myself whether I can lead a whole business," Lewis says. "Some people think that is crazy given some of the jobs I have done but actually I don't think you know whether you can truly lead a business until you sit in that seat."
He admits that "the bit that is interesting is that I have never run a shop in my life", pointing out that a lot of the other parts of retail, such as category management and logistics, are very similar at Unilever. Besides: "Phil Clarke is a great retailer. The issue for Tesco is, is that what they need now? Because great retailing in that seat hasn't been the thing that has worked, so they do need a fresh perspective."
He may be fiercely ambitious, but the divorcee's two daughters, aged 18 and 15, keep him grounded.
"I had to tell them on the Sunday (the day before he was revealed as Tesco's new leader). They were like, 'Dad, what are you talking about?' I never talk about work with them really. They were both somewhat shocked by what happened."
In the days that followed, Lewis's mobile phone went into meltdown. One text message sticks in his mind from his youngest. It read, "Fitness fanatic? Who are you kidding?", referring to his reported running obsession that began when he agreed to take part in the (Unilever-owned) Flora London marathon.
For the record, Lewis does love running, but also cooking, photography and "I play golf, I play any racket sports." Living in Richmond, "it is the river, it is the park, it is just trying to keep fit".
But the biggest misconception that Lewis wants to correct is that he is purely a marketer. Yes, he did launch Dove soap in Britain in 1992, but no, he didn't create Dove's Real Beauty campaign for which he keeps getting credited. And he has done a lot since then, not least expanding sales at Unilever's £16 billion-a-year personal care division — think Lynx deodorant, Radox, Brylcreem and Vaseline — by more than a third.
"In personal care, we won something like 50 Lion awards at the Cannes advertising festival. I've never been to Cannes; I have no desire to go to Cannes. They did the work, I just created the environment and the stimulus."
He is more relaxed about his "Drastic Dave" nickname, coined in the trade press when he was drafted back in to the UK division to arrest a sales slump with a brutal restructuring and a table-thumping mantra of "we win because we care".
"It wasn't an easy situation, it wasn't a time for incremental improvements. We needed to make some significant changes." With profit margins under pressure from cut-price upstarts Aldi and Lidl, Tesco folk beware. The retailer is reeling after calling an end to the "space race" of store openings, retrenching overseas and Clarke's detours into posh coffee shops and launching its own tablet computer.
Lewis adds: "I do genuinely think that leaders don't have just one style. I know everybody wants to profile and pigeonhole but the job of a leader is can you adapt to a situation you find yourself in? OK, Drastic Dave makes you sound like you are some sort of hatchet man who turns around businesses in a very particular way, but you go forward and take the personal care example, which is what does the task need at the time?"
For the past three years, Dashing Dave might be more appropriate. He moved quickly to expand a business he won't describe as beauty because he is adamant his clientele are beautiful already. Listen to him sitting down with a group of Dove shoppers.
"When you talk to those women you say, 'OK, tell me about what you do on Friday night, when you have done all the parental things'. They will tell you about an aspiration to walk into a room and for it to go quiet. To have a partner who occasionally looks at them with desire and lust in their eyes."
One big achievement, the segmenting of the shampoo market, is interesting given that Tesco must overhaul its ranges after learning the hard way that the one-size-fits-all era is over.
Unilever did best at the lower end of the market but Lewis wanted more premium brands too. It bought some, such as TRESemmé and Toni & Guy, which also brought with it a hair academy in Battersea whose stylists can provide instant feedback on new innovations.
"It is about providing inspiration and insight into the market. I suspect that your wife's conversation with her hair stylist has a content unlike any other," he surmises.
Lewis also let the science boffins loose, such as by bringing a version of TRESemmé with salon-style keratin treatment to the supermarket shelves. Knowing what customers want is what unites it all, a trick that has in recent years deserted Tesco.
"One of the things I have loved from the favelas in Brazil to the islands of Java is getting that connection with consumers. The one thing I said to people who join Unilever is 'I don't care what function you are in, if you are not curious about people, don't join'."
It is a curiosity that has led him all the way up Tesco's troubled aisles. Now can Driven Dave unite checkout girls and disillusioned directors to put the super back into Britain's biggest supermarket?

• In our review of the 48 Hour Music Festival (by Andrew Frederick, February 27), the third drummer of VICIOUS BLOW was misidentified. He does not share a name with the late vocalist of INXS, but is instead MICHAEL C. ANDERSON, drummer for Loverless, Johnny Cremains, Adam Kurtz — and Vicious Blow.
• Pianist/composer FRANK CARLBERG releases his new The American Dream with a show at Woodfords Church April 23. We like Frank, and would mention that anyway, but let's say we were encouraged by one of the more breathless pieces of promotion we've read in a long time. Here's a sample: "The American Dream is a jazz suite cum political cri de coeur built around 12 short poems by the late ROBERT CREELEY. The poems have been situated by Mr. Carlberg in musical contexts that extend and enhance the linguistic economy and emotional candor that characterize much of Mr. Creeley's greatest work." We also like: "The quintet, with utmost confidence and éclat, re-animates Mr. Carlberg's visionary approach to and interpretation of Mr. Creeley's impeccable poetries." Can you do that with poetry? Make it plural? We thought it was one of those collective-noun thingies, like water and sand.
• GUNTHER BROWN have a date scheduled for their debut release: April 16, at One Longfellow. More to follow.
• MAINE RECREATION AND PARK ASSOCIATION is sponsoring the 13th annual ENTERTAINMENT SHOWCASE on Friday, March 27, from 9 am to 3 pm at Windham High School. You know, when most people are actually working. But, if you want to score some good-paying institutional and wedding gigs, it's a good place for a band or performer to be. Register with Tina LeBlanc at 207-646-5826 or email email@example.com. Visitwww.merpa.orgfor more information.
• PARMA RECORDINGS, in addition to having one of the fanciest newsletters we've ever come across — beautiful classical accompaniment as you browse through a digital magazine, really sublime — has also scored (ha — classical joke there) a distribution deal with NAXOS, which is kind of a big deal in the classical world. They also make note of the fact that their RICHARD STOLTZMAN recording will be included with Windows 7. And we suppose that's a pretty big spot to get, but we'd, personally, be embarrassed to be associated with a MICROSOFT product. They're icky. Getting back to the good news, Parma also acquired CAPSTONE RECORDS, a classical label that's been around since 1986, with roughly 200 records in the catalog. Capstone honcho and composer RICHARD BROOKS will join Parma's board and stick around in an advisory role.

Countdown to Tipoff Features | Game Day Central | 2009-10 Media Guide | Updated 2009-10 MBB Schedule | Pitt Basketball Tickets |
When Jamie Dixon's players graduate and move on from college basketball, they all have various options for continuing their basketball careers, whether in the NBA or overseas. Dixon has used his contacts and resources all over the basketball community to help set up tryouts and gather information about players' prospects in the professional ranks and, for many, it's led to careers.
There are countless leagues around the world that former Pitt players have been, and are currently, making major impacts in. Here's a look at some former Pitt players and what they're doing these days. We will have more updates on other players in the coming days.
Pitt's starter at point guard over the last three seasons, Fields began his journey with the Orlando Magic in their 2009 summer league. Following that stint, Fields signed a lucrative three-year deal with Spartak St. Petersburg of the Russian Super League.
Fields played 37 minutes and scored 24 points in his most recent game, knocking down 3-6 3-point attempts and adding five assists. In his first game, he played 18 minutes and scored eight points. He started both games.
Under conditions of his contract, Fields has at least two years guaranteed with St. Petersburg and an opt-out clause for next season, which allows him to leave only to play in the NBA. There's currently one other American player on the roster with Fields: Sharrod Ford, who starred at Clemson from 2001-05 and had a brief stint in the NBA.
While at Pitt, Fields was a three-time Bob Cousy Award Candidate. He averaged 10.7 points and 7.5 assists during his senior year.
Fields' current player page: http://www.eurobasket.com/player.asp?Cntry=RUS&PlayerID=91532
Like Fields, Biggs began his professional career overseas. He's currently playing for the Greek club, Trikala. Trikala, a recently founded club (1999) in the International Basketball Federation, is most notably known for its rapid succession into the A1 League - the top tier of Greek basketball.
During the first game of the season, Biggs ranked second on the team in minutes played (27) and third on the team in scoring with 14 points. He's playing aside former Texas star A.J. Abrams, the Big 12 career record-holder in 3-pointers.
Before traveling to Greece, Biggs trained with current NBA players DeJuan Blair and Jrue Holiday at the IMG Basketball Academy, which has helped send a countless number of players into the professional ranks. He then spent time in Las Vegas, where he competed in the NBA's 2009 Summer League for the Chicago Bulls. In three games, he accumulated 56 minutes of playing time and scored 25 points. He impressed several scouts and NBA personnel with his versatile game, but was not signed to a deal and decided to start his basketball career overseas.
Biggs' current player page: http://www.eurobasket.com/player.asp?Cntry=GRE&PlayerID=64895
Benjamin is playing in the Australian Basketball Association for the Mount Gambier Pioneers, a member of the South East Australian Basketball League.
Before arriving in Australia, Benjamin appeared on the roster for two Continental Basketball Association Teams: the Pittsburgh Xplosion and the Sioux Falls Skyforce.
While at Pitt, Benjamin played in 123 career games and had tallied 306 points. During his senior year, he played a major role in Pitt's 2008 Big East Tournament Championship team, averaging 9.1 points per game throughout the season.

DeGroat transferred to Pitt and played two years with the Panthers, ending his college career in 2006. He's currently playing for BC Odessa in Ukraine, averaging 18 points through three games. He concluded the 2008-09 season playing for Budivelnyk Kyiv-Ukraine, where he appeared in 51 of 52 games and scored 852 points.
Before making the move to the Ukraine, DeGroat remained in Pittsburgh and played for the Pittsburgh Xplosion during the 2007-08 season, averaging 18.2 points and eight rebounds per game. He played in the all-star game that season and picked up professional interest around the world. After tryouts with the NBA's Los Angeles Lakers, among others, DeGroat took his talents overseas. As an international player, he's played professionally in Ireland, Hungary and Finland.
DeGroat arrived at Pitt prior to the 2004-05 season after transferring from Northeastern Colorado Community College, where he was ranked as one of the nation's top junior college players.

Like many of his former Pitt teammates, Graves joined the Pittsburgh Xplosion roster for the 2007-08 season alongside DeGroat and Carl Krauser. After several stints in various places, he now playing professionally in Croatia.
While playing with the Xplosion, Graves averaged 19.5 points, 3.6 assists and 2.5 rebounds per game. Then, in January 2008, Graves signed with Élan Béarnais Pau Orthez based in Pau, France. Élan Béarnais Pau Orthez is a member of the Ligue Nationale de Basketball, the top men's professional basketball league in France. While in France, Graves averaged 20 points, three assists and two rebounds per game.
After the completion of his contract with Élan Béarnais Pau Orthez, Graves participated in the 2008 NBA Summer League and signed with Calatasaray Café Crown of Istanbul, Turkey, part of the Turkish Basketball League. There, during the 2008-09 season, he averaged 15.4 points and 2.1 assists per game. Graves then relocated to Zagbreb, where he contributes greatly to their backcourt.
While at Pitt, Graves had a successful career leading the Panthers to four NCAA Tournament appearances and four 20-win seasons. He was named to the Big East All-Tournament team following his senior season.

Vonteego Cummings has traveled the world to play basketball, appearing on rosters in four different countries: the U.S., Italy, Serbia and Montenegro and Israel.
Originally selected by the Indiana Pacers in first round (26th overall) of the 1999 NBA Draft, he was eventually traded to the Golden State Warriors with whom he made his first NBA appearance. He was later traded to the Philadelphia 76ers. He appeared in 199 NBA games and accrued 1,381 before beginning his EuroBasket career.
After being signed by Futur Virtus Castelmaggiore for the 2003 season, Cummings moved to Italy. For the 2004 season he appeared on the roster for KK Hemofarm Vrsac, then relocated to Serbia and Montenegro. The following year, Cummings made the move back the U.S. and was signed by the Fort Worth Flyers, a member of the NBA Development League. In 2006 he signed with BC Partizan Belgrade, a Serbian A-League team, which finished 11th in the 2007 EuroBasket Championship. For the 2007-08 season Cummings moved to Isreal after being signed by Maccabi Tel Aviv, the biggest sports club in the country. In 2008, Cummings made his last transaction to date and signed with CB Estudiantes based out of Madrid, Spain.
When he completed his career at Pitt in 1999, Cummings ranked ninth in school history in points (1,581), fourth in assists (285) and second in steals (235). In his final three seasons with the Panthers, he earned All-Big East honors.

Politicians in anti-hate crime bid
Politicians have teamed up with local sports ahead of a weekend that will see players and fans join forces to kick hate crime into touch.
First Minister Peter Robinson and Chief Constable Matt Baggott were among guests at the launch of the latest initiative from the Unite Against Hate campaign at Stormont.
Justice Minister David Ford and Junior Minister Gerry Kelly also joined representatives from gaelic games, football and ice hockey at the event to promote the efforts to eradicate sectarianism, racism and other forms of intolerance from the terraces.
Over the weekend clubs will show their support for the campaign at grounds and arenas across the region, with the Unite anthem played and wristbands distributed to supporters.
Addressing the well-attended event in the Long Gallery, Mr Robinson said: "The Unite Against Hate campaign promises to give a voice to the often silent majority and enable them to express their opposition to hate and intolerance in our communities and to act on that.
"We want to spell out our clear condemnation of all hate crime attacks and abuse. Hate crime is totally unacceptable and has no place in our society."
Mr Kelly added: "We can start educating our children and young people to respect diversity, to take part in all sports in a safe and secure environment.
"Sport and games are a vital expression of cultural identify, and they can provide a unifying arena where we can celebrate and commiserate in the shared emotion of a unifying cause."
Dr Duncan Morrow, of the Community Relations Council, also spoke at the launch, which was compered by comic and Unite Against Hate ambassador Tim McGarry.
"Building a shared society means tackling the malign influences of sectarianism and racism and other forms of hate crime," said Dr Morrow.

Best Practices to Reduce Storm Water Runoff
Page Content
Recommended Best Management Strategies You can Practice at Home!
There are several things you can do to reduce the amount of pollutants that are carried into our streams and rivers through storm water runoff. These simple techniques are easily implemented during daily activities and can make a huge impact on reducing water pollution.
Car Washing and Vehicle Maintenance
Use commercial car washes when possible, since the wastewater is regulated/treated.
Washing your car and degreasing auto parts at home can send detergents and other contaminants through the storm drain system. Dumping automotive fluids into storm drains has the same result as dumping the materials directly into a water body.
If you wash or repair your vehicle at home, consider the following practices:
Use Phosphate free soaps and detergents.
Wash vehicle on grassy areas or in an area so that water, detergents, and dirt can be filtered through the soil.
Repair and prevent leaks from oil and other auto fluids by using oil pans/other systems of collection.
Use rags and absorbent materials instead of water to clean up accidental spills of vehicle fluids.
Visit environmentally responsible repair shops which properly dispose of used car parts and fluids.
Dispose of used oil and old batteries at proper disposal locations or the
County Landfill
Landscaping and Lawn Maintenance
Excess fertilizers and pesticides applied to lawns and gardens wash off and pollute streams. In addition, yard clippings and leaves can wash into storm drains and contribute nutrients and organic matter to streams.
Avoid the overwatering of your lawn
Use pesticides and fertilizers sparingly and use only recommended amounts when needed. Use organic mulch, safer pest control methods and organic slow release fertilizers when possible.
Make sure excess fertilizer and pesticides are swept from impervious surfaces to prevent them from washing away during storm events.
Trim grass to no less than 3 inches, this allows proper root growth to help prevent sediment runoff
Compost or mulch yard waste, do not leave it in the street or sweep into storm drains.
Cover piles of dirt or mulch being used in landscaping projects to prevent materials from washing into storm drain.
Minimize areas of grass/turf, if possible plant areas with native and low maintenance plantings.
Consider using sustainable practices in landscaping such as permeable pavement, rain barrels, rain gardens, and vegetated filter strips
Pet Waste
Surprisingly, pet waste can be a major contributor of bacteria and excessive nutrients to local waters. Some urban areas have found pet waste to contribute up to 50% of the total bacteria content in streams.
Remember to pick up pet waste and dispose of it properly. Bagging, then flushing or placing pet wastes in the trash is the best disposal method.
Leaving pet waste on the ground increases public health risk by allowing harmful bacteria and nutrients to wash into storm drains, and eventually local water bodies.
Septic Systems
Leaking and poorly maintained septic systems release nutrients and pathogens (bacteria and viruses) that can be picked up by storm water and discharged into nearby water bodies. Pathogens can cause public health problems and environmental concerns.
Do not dispose of household hazardous waste in sinks or toilets as it can damage your septic system.
Note: Prince William County requires the pumping of septic systems every 5 years.
Trash and Recycling and Household Hazardous Waste Disposal
Proper storage and disposal of trash, recycling, and household hazardous wastes prevents these items from making their way into the storm drain system as storm water runoff, or washing directly entering the County's water bodies.
Floating trash and debris have become significant pollutants, especially in waterways and oceans where large amounts of trash and plastic debris can concentrate in small areas. Floating trash detracts from the aesthetics of a landscape. It poses a threat to wildlife and human health (e.g., choking hazards to wildlife and bacteria to humans).
Many products found in homes contain chemicals potentially harmful to both people and the environment. Chemical products such as oven cleaners, paint removers, bug killers, solvents, and drain cleaners are just a few common hazardous products in the home.
Using alternative products instead of toxic substances drastically reduces the presence of toxics in storm water and receiving waters. Common toxic substances found in the home are cleaners, automotive products, and pesticides.
Properly store and dispose of unused Household hazardous wastes at the
County Landfill
Take steps to prevent trash from making its way into storm system:
Store waste in proper containers in locations not subjected to storm water runoff
Ensure the trash is covered
Clean up remaining liquids and residues since they can still be washed away during rain events and create pollution
Swimming Pool Discharges
If not disposed of properly, the chlorine, bromine, algaecides, cleaning chemicals, and lack of dissolved oxygen in pool water can kill fish and other aquatic life in streams. In addition, releasing large volumes of water quickly can cause stream bank erosion.
According to county ordinance, only de-chlorinated, pH neutral, chemical-free, clean water may be slowly discharged to the storm drain system.
Here are
simple measures that can be taken to further protect the environment, and prevent damage due to the release of large volumes of water.
Use removal agents or allow untreated water to sit for approximately 10 days to allow the chlorine or bromine to dissipate. Use a pool test kit to ensure that there aren't any detectable levels of chlorine or bromine before emptying the pool water. Check the pH to ensure it is at an acceptable level (7- neutral).
Discharge water into heavily vegetated area and control the rate of the water flow to help minimize erosion.

Best Training books/DVDs
I anxious to get my dog, Hugo, into this kind of training. I have been watching videos about it and have become obsessed. I am always looking for new ways and more fun ways to push both myself and my dog when it comes to training. He is only three months so we have some time before the real training starts. He's catching on to obedience training so fast and loves it. He can't get enough. He is equally food driven as he is toy driven(I got really lucky). So it is usually me that has to end the training sessions because I'm exhausted.
Anyway, I'd love to get him into schutzhund/IPO not only for the protection and obedience, but for the fun and challenge of the training as well. It looks like it's very tedious work, as well as fun, that will keep both me and my pup challenged. I was wondering, since he is only three, if there were any really good books or DVDs to start already as sort of a prerequisite. Also, when we get there, the best book/DVD for the actual training. Also, I would love to hear some tips from experience. Any stories or hints to training? Maybe something that worked really well for you pup. Thanks
Don't forget the tracking phase. :) I recommend Gary Patterson's book Tracking: From the beginning.
My mind is drawing a blank at the minute for books on obedience. I know that Denise Fenzi (sp?) and Shade Whitsel (sp?) have on line courses that you could find helpful. Shade trains in IPO.
For protection (and, for the most part the other two phases) your best resource will be a good club.
Ilike the Power of Playing Tug with your Dog dvd from Michael Ellis.
I liked this marker training article too http://leerburg.com/pdf/markers-clickers.pdf
Agree with the Michael Ellis DVDs, Power of Training with Food is another good one.
I followed the advice given here and got Gary Patterson's book (suggested above by Lisa) for tracking too, I'll second that suggestion as a newbie using it. Read the book all the way through first though, then start following the steps laid out for starting your dog. I was getting anxious about some problems that later in the book were revealed to be signs of progression (like loosing interest in bait).
Another book I got on the recommendation of an IPO trainer/helper: http://www.amazon.com/Schutzhund-Obedience-Training-Sheila-Booth/dp/0966302028
Here's the link to the tracking book, you can get it Amazon or directly from Leerburg.
I think DVD are really expensive and I have never found that I learn a lot from them-get more from actually going to training-also have gotten them second hand from someone else-but that may be just how I learn
Something I do differently from the book is I add corners or arcs to my tracks very early on. I also start with scent boxes before going to the tracks. The problem solving aspects, problem solving for the dog, of that book are very good if I remember right (has been awhile since I read it).
I just got the Power of Playing Tug with your Dog yesterday and watched it half way then tried it on my 9months old. I was so surprised that these methods from DVD work. I can see that Arya improved her eyes contact on obedience after playing tug.

Root Out Japan's Yakuza
Japan is embarking on what may become the first publicly financed bailout of a national criminal underworld, its yakuza. No wonder Japanese taxpayers are up in arms! The Ministry of Finance is trying to rebuild Japan's fragile banking system following the excesses of the "bubble economy" of the late 1980s. But MOF bureaucrats are saying that the yakuza hold many of the nonperforming real estate and construction loans. And the tattooed tough guys refuse to pay up or sell off their assets. So, MOF officials believe the only solution is to finance the cleanup with public money.
Of course, it was the MOF that first permitted the yakuza to get their hooks into the legitimate financial community. Before the Eighties, gangs were consigned to the murky, marginal economic world of prostitution, drugs, and gambling. The yakuza moved out into the financial sunlight only when MOF officials turned a blind eye as banks began using subsidiaries for risky real estate speculation. These subsidiaries often relied on gangsters to "persuade" ordinary people to leave their apartments. Many Japanese were physically coerced. Gangsters then moved directly into the real estate business for themselves, borrowing huge sums of money.
The police, for whatever reason, allowed gangsters to threaten and bully people so that large tracts of property could be put together for commercial building. In a country so proud of its safe streets and low crime rate, it remains a mystery as to why the police, especially in Osaka, Kansai, and Tokyo, looked the other way when citizens were under attack from gangsters. Who gave the orders?
As much as 10% of the bad bank loans on the books are now believed to have gone to the yakuza. The MOF puts the bad loan figure at $350 billion, but others estimate the number is up to $800 billion. That means that some $35 billion to $80 billion were lent to gangsters by legitimate banks. This is surely an amazing sum to go to gangsters.
The yakuza have always played a special role in Japanese society. They are romanticized in the movies as social outcasts with good souls keeping the samurai spirit alive in modern Japan. They are used by businesses to keep unruly unions and shareholders in line. And they have been used by politicians, particularly those on the right, to break heads.
It is time for Japan to push back the yakuza into the margins of society. No good can come of gangsters wielding strong economic and financial clout. Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto shares responsibility for the current banking mess because he was head of the MOF from 1989 to 1991. He must make sure that enough political pressure is put on MOF bureaucrats so that they seriously go after yakuza assets. He should also order an investigation into why the police permitted ordinary Japanese to be victimized by gangsters working with banks and construction companies.
Bankers have stopped trying to collect on bad loans to the yakuza because many have been threatened and one even killed by gangsters. A new government organization with police power is being set up to bail out the banks. It should root out gangster real estate cash and assets. This would do more than save the Japanese taxpayers billions of dollars. Aggressive action would break the back of the yakuza and drive them back into the shadows, where they belong.

I'm glad your wife is wanting to carry. I have been working slowly w/ my wife to get her to come around. I wish she was already, as I have been gone for almost a year, but as soon as I get home I will really work on it. I think the hardest part w/ be finding a CCW class around Ft Walton and getting her to go.
"No man's life, liberty, or property is safe while the Congress is in session."

I am glad things are working out for all. My wife does not like the fact that I carry or even have one in the house nor will she go shooting with me. She got mad when I started teaching my daughter about gun safety which by the way she is a quick learner.
Great news. I know you'll feel a lot better with her armed and ready. I'm lucky. My wife was raised on a farm and guns were part of the tools of the trade. She has her own pistols, which she picked out at a gun show, she has her CCW, and she'll shoot any SOB that tries to break into the house or attack her while she's out and about.
Just to address some of the comments I've seen here:
I plan to start introducing guns to my daughter around the age of 5. If nothing else, she will get to see, handle, and ask questions about them while under my supervision. My aim is to take the curiosity factor away as early as possible. Pieces that are not being carried will be locked away (my wife and I have had numerous discussions on this topic).
My favorite gun(s):
I'm already afraid that if she can handle it, she's going to take my XD40sc from me. And she's already requested that I buy her a gun of her own (which is perfectly resonable as I want her to have something that fits her). Maybe I'll wind up with a couple of new ones out of this.
Now, the bad news...
The range was closed this past weekend. The shop had been planning a move recently as the area they were in had experienced quite a bit of development. Well, the old shop is gone (as in the building is down and cleared off the lot), and the new one has not opened yet. Looks like it'll be a couple weeks before they get their range opened.
Good deal! My spouse has gone from ,"What! You want a gun! You'll shoot the boys when they come in late at night!" to accompanying me to a basic handgun class, where she put 100 rounds through my PT 111. She also saw that I'm a pretty good shot, so she has mellowed out about my carrying when we go out at night.
She still does not want a concealed pistol permit, but she does know where I keep the pistols and the combo to the gunvault under the bed...If worse comes to worse, she will defend our home and family.

It happens all too often. A super keen angler wielding a rod powers up a massive cast and throws his whole body into it, only to have somebody else scream: "You've got me!"
It is a situation we all dread, but it often does have its humorous side. Like when (names shall be withheld for the sake of personal pride) Al let rip with a beaut while throwing poppers for giant trevally in the tropics, and his son - who inherited the name Jackass for reasons which shall become obvious - jumped up from his perch on the side of the boat and let out a fearsome squawk.
It seems the lure dangling from the tip of the rod had drifted over until it was directly behind the young fellow's backside and it whipped straight into the said part as Al leaned into his cast. Enough said.
After the panic died down and Jackass was lying spreadeagled across the top of a bin with a towel wrapped around the lure to prevent it wobbling around, the fizz boat sped back to the mothership where a fellow angler who happened to be an orthopaedic surgeon was waiting with his medical kit.
It might have been a case of medical overkill, but the hook was successfully removed from the numbed section of anatomy and Jackass was soon smiling with a beer in hand and basking in all the attention.
The father was suitably contrite and offered to keep opening the beers. The patient recovered remarkably quickly and was soon fishing again.
Another incident involved a bunch of mates who were fly fishing at a stream mouth on a Rotorua lake many years ago. It was late at night at the small stream mouth, and the casters were lined up shoulder to shoulder to ensure their lines went down the current to where the trout were waiting.
The inevitable happened and Wally let out a screech as Pat leaned into his cast. "You got me, you got me," was the anguished cry. When a torch revealed a large, black trout fly with the hook securely embedded in the point of Wally's nose and the feathers lying back along the top of his nose it took a few minutes for the laughter to settle down.
"Hang on, won't be a minute mate," was the comforting message as a pair of scissors was produced and the monofilament trace quickly snipped. Pat started casting again and was building up a good head of steam when Wally started screeching again, his head jerking back and forth in time with the power casts. The torch appeared again and the light showed the hook still stuck in the end of the nose with the trace trailing off to Pat's rod. They had cut the wrong line.
This time Pat didn't waste any time messing around with scissors. He simply grabbed the trace and heaved straight down with all his might.
The hook popped out of the nose alright, but it took with it a sizeable chunk of meat on the barb and Wally uttered another screech which cannot be repeated, but it referred to Pat's ancestry. With blood pouring from the tip of his nose and tears streaming down his face, Wally stumbled off to recover his wits by the campfire.
So what do you do when a hook accidentally enters human skin rather than the intended quarry?
If it is a small, sharp hook like a tiny trout fly, it can be popped out by running a piece of line inside the bend of the hook, pressing down on the shank which clears the barb on the inside, and jerking on the line so the hook is pulled out at the same angle it went in. This works very well, and simply pops out the hook without the patient feeling a thing. It should be done quickly before any pain sets in and before the patient has time to think about it.
If it involves a large hook, the line should be cut at once and the hook or lure wrapped in a towel or with tape to keep it still, and the patient taken to the nearest doctor.
The standard procedure is to anaesthetise the area, disinfect it and then either nick the skin holding the barb or push the hook right through so it can be cut. It depends on where the hook is placed in the body and how deeply it is embedded. But that is a matter for the medical professionals. If the party happens to be stuck in a remote area with no prospect of rescue for some time, then it is a good idea to include somebody in the trip at the outset who has some medical experience, or at least knows how to use a medical kit.
The old bowie knife sterilised in a camp fire, a belt between the teeth and a bottle of spirits for comfort should be left for the movies.
