Diabetic Neuropathy usually affects the
feet, ankle and lower limbs but can affect other areas
in the body as well, like your thighs, hips, and even
internal organs.
There are four types of Diabetic Neuropathy:
peripheral, autonomic, proximal, and focal.
Peripheral Neuropathy affects the extremities
like your fingers and toes. This form of neuropathy is
most often found in the feet, ankles and lower limbs.
Autonomic Neuropathy affects the organs of the
body, like your lungs, intestines, liver, sex organs and
even your heart.
Proximal Neuropathy affects the one side of
the body in the thighs, hips, and buttocks leaving you
feeling "weak in the legs".
Focal Neuropathy is usually a temporary even
affecting nerves in any part of the body. Thighs, chest,
eyes, pelvis, lower back, chest, legs feet, the abdomen
and even your ears.
High glucose levels in the blood can
start too damage the cells and tissues in muscles,
joints and nerve endings.
Damage to
nerve endings is common in the feet and can develop into
numbness, tingling and even a complete lack of touch
Gradually the numbness and lack of
sensitivity may cause cuts, puncture wounds and other
foot injures to go unnoticed. This can create
secondary foot conditions and health complications.

- - Insurance (http://www.sailnet.com/forums/cruising-liveaboard-forum/92672-insurance.html)
We have wanted to purchase a sailboat, about a 34', and spend some of our retirement years sailing the Caribean. We have no experiece although I have taken some ASA classes. We were told that the insurance rate on a boat is dependent on your sailing experience. Is this the case? If so, can anyone give us a ballpark figure on what insurance rates would be.
Thanks in advance for any input.
Re: Insurance
Short answer - Yes.
You're just going to have to call. Age of boat, size, value will all affect it. I spoke to my broker just the other day about this and was told they won't cover me unless I already have sailed in the Caribbean (I have). Waiting to hear back on how much they will want. A friend of mine bought a boat in Trinidad. He could only get insurance from Loyds. I don't know how much it was but, it was not cheap.
Good luck
Re: Insurance
Many thanks for the information. Maybe that dream is squashed.
Re: Insurance
Sorry for that plan being squashed...for now. You can still sail in the nearby places right while building your experience and get ready for that Caribbean dream? Don't lose faith and keep finding other ways to find a better insurance coverage depending on your budget. Best of luck.
Re: Insurance
Take as many official sailing courses and safety courses as you can. Insurance companies like that. A later model 34ft sloop should be among the easier to insure and not out of reach for a newer sailor. A very old boat, particularly a fixer upper, is very difficult.
Location also impacts the insurability. Higher crime areas are naturally going to be harder to insure. More common is high rates if you remain in the Caribbean during hurricane season, where rates can sky rocket, if attainable at all. Some insurance companies want proof that you have access to being hauled in the event of a named storm. You probably want to know too.
Re: Insurance
ask the same question at Welcome to the Seven Seas Cruising Association
Re: Insurance
What about going with a boat that is not as expensive (a little smaller, and a little older), and self-insuring? By self-insuring I mean saving enough money that if the ship is lost, you will not be ruined. AND by building knowledge and skills that will reduce the likelyhood of loosing the ship.
Re: Insurance
You still need liability insurance, including environmental hazard.
Re: Insurance
Thanks for all the input. We are going to the Galveston Boat Show next weekend just to see what's available and will 'pick the brains' of those there also. Again thanx.
Re: Insurance
Seems like the boat insurance business is like the rest of business industries. You can't get a job unless you have experience. Understandable but frustrating.

Where I stayed
Enroute Stop at DFW Airport, Texas
What I did
Connected to a fight to San Antonio, Texas
The flight from San Francisco to Dallas was uneventful. We flew on an American Airlines Boeing 757; the flight lasted just under three hours. The departure gate was late calling for Rosalind's wheel chair; but we boarded with the first group which allowed her to take it easy walking down the jet bridge. I put my computer, a couple of souviner books and my camera chip in the seat back pocket with the intent of working on the blog during the flight. Our seat had a power port underneath it, so maintaining power would be great. After takeoff, I pulled out my tray table and was ready to work. I plugged in the power cord and nothing happened. I had a fully charged battery, so power was not an issue. I just like to use AC/DC power when available. When the flight attendant came by to get our drink order, I asked her to turn on the powerports. She advised me powerports on Boeing 757s had been disconnected due to a mechanical issue that could possibly cause a fire. I had no problem with that decision.
We got our peanuts and drinks and settled in. I powered up the computer and started to write. That effort didn't last too long. After about fifteen minutes or so, my eyelids got real heavy and I put everything back into my backpack. We were both so tired that neither one of us wanted our meal; I passed on shrimp!! Boy I must have been really tired you think. Anyway, the next thing we hear is a flight attendants making the announcement that we are landing. We landed at about 1930 and parked at Gate C-12. Our departure gate was C-33; we didn't have too far to go. A wheelchair was waiting in the jet bridge. We moved to our new gate and waited for the last leg of our journey. The flight was not due to depart until 2200. Going to the Admiral's Club to relax was too far, especially with the amount of time we had; it was in the International Terminal E. So we sat in the gate area a little over two hours catching up on email and talking to family and friends. By now we're kind of hungry but decided to wait until we got home to eat. At about 2130, we boarded the plane. Up to this point, we have been awake for almost 24 hours; but we're almost home.
Next stop San Antonio :-) ...Chat with you later!
Lionel and Rosalind

Munis have faced both interest rate and credit risk pressures, but at current levels, this varied asset class is worth considering, especially for those in higher tax brackets, say Morningstar's Candice Lee and Eric Jacobson.
Morningstar's Miriam Sjoblom discusses how to gauge whether a muni fund is more apt than a taxable- bond fund, yield risks and other key focus points, and some of her muni -fund recommendations.
With a tilt toward longer durations, worries over Puerto Rico, and large outflows, muni funds struggled in 2013, but they have something to offer investors, says Morningstar's Eric Jacobson.
Despite their extra income, nonrated municipal bonds can expose investors to lower-credit-quality, less-liquid issues with a tremendous research requirement, says Morningstar's Eric Jacobson.

Is Sailing an Elitist Sport?
I realize this has been hashed out before; but, after looking at ticket prices for the America cup, it really makes you wonder. It makes NASCAR look good.
I'm glad i can watch sailing from any vantage point.
Re: Is Sailing an Elitist Sport?
"Full Series Flex $5,500"
And my vantage point would be from where???
Unless this put me on a Committee boat, or hovering above the course in a helo, it's about as silly as selling tickets to watch the Woodland Kingfisher migrate South. JMO
Re: Is Sailing an Elitist Sport?
Well, as I was saying to Hunter and Daphne at the Club the other day, if we lower our standards any more just about everyone will think that they can be a sailor ...
Re: Is Sailing an Elitist Sport?
I can only go by my first hand experiences here.
When I mentioned to my co-workers that I was looking at a boat. The first questions out of their mouths was "what size engine?" We are not talking rednecks here.. the idea that I was looking to get a sailboat seemed about as alien to them as if I had ridden a horse to work amd wore homespun clothing. in this digital age, getting anywhere slowly by using the forces of nature does not compute
Re: Is Sailing an Elitist Sport?
1 Attachment(s)
Yes, sailing is an elitist sport, cruising is a great example. We have had to get off our butts and make money through hard work to buy a boat, retire and go travel the world.
Slack-ass lazy bums cant do that because they have always been bone idle. They are the ones who look at us as elitist.
So I dont mind at all :)
Re: Is Sailing an Elitist Sport?
Sailing is definitely an 'elitist' sport, as especially viewed by those who dont do their own exhaustive 'bottom work', etc. because their servants/paid crew happen to have a few days off and no one is there every morning to 'chamois'-off the dew.
Re: Is Sailing an Elitist Sport?
Sailboat racing is a sport and certainly can be elitist but for the rest of us not at all. Sailing (day sailing or cruising)on the other hand is as much a sport as driving a motor home through Yellowstone.
Re: Is Sailing an Elitist Sport?
What does 'sailing' have to do with the 'Americas Cup?' That's like asking if driving a car is elitist because Formula One racing is expensive.
You can probably watch 'yacht racing' every day in the summer if you want to. My club (dues is $50 / year) races numerous series in the summer and you can watch for free. The other local yacht clubs have similar racing on other days Is that 'common man' enough for you?
Re: Is Sailing an Elitist Sport?
Elitist, maybe but I sail a 35 yr old boat that cost me a few grand.I sailed past a million dollar yacht last year and you can't tell me he was having any more fun than me.I love sailing , it is fun at every level.
Re: Is Sailing an Elitist Sport?
It certainly appears that WATCHING other people sail can be VERY elitist, I've never paid to watch someone else play golf or tennis either so the whole concept is a little alien to me.
How do they keep people from watching for free outside the grandstand area ?

Interior, exterior and aerial photos page: 1
Terry Bradshaw is a former pro NFL football player and co-host of "Fox NFL Sunday". When he's not playing football, winning Superbowls, racing NASCAR or being on TV in front of millions every Sunday, he's chilling in this hot party pad. Bradshaw is now selling his celebrity beach house on the coast in Hawaii. He played in four Super Bowls and led the Steelers to eight AFC Central championships. Bradshaw also tried his hand at NASCAR by forming his own team. Terry Bradshaw's Hawaii home is located in Kamuela, Hawaii.

Retail sales figures show shoppers are spending less, especially in Napier where sales are down 39 per cent year on year, but there is optimism people will have their wallets open heading into the Christmas season.
Figures released by Statistics New Zealand showed total retail sales were down in the Hawke's Bay in the three months to September 30.
In the breakdown, shoppers spent 2.1 per cent less at Wairoa, Hastings and Central Hawke's Bay retailers, compared to the previous June quarter. Napier city sales declined by 5 per cent between the two quarters.
A year-on-year comparison from the Quarterly Retail Trade Survey revealed a huge drop in sales for Napier city, with total sales down 39 per cent, or about $122 million, between the September 2012 and 2011 quarters.
Sales for Wairoa, Hastings and Central Hawke's Bay fell 5.2 per cent year-on-year.
Napier City councillor and business owner Tony Jeffery said he did not believe the 39 per cent drop was a fair reflection of retailing in the Art Deco city.
"It is definitely quiet coming off the back of the Rugby World Cup but not 39 per cent; I would be very surprised if those statistics were correct. In October we were up on the same month last year."
Mr Jeffery manages family business Jeffery's Fashion for Men on Emerson St, which was founded in 1860.
"If you look at the city about a decade ago there were a lot of empty buildings but these days it's pretty full. Occupancy rates are a good indication of how the sector is performing.
"We had substantial rental hikes during the boom and people are still hanging in there but I don't think the situation is as bad as the figures suggest."
Mr Jeffery said Napier City Council was investing heavily to improve the CBD and retail, especially business around its key tourism sector.
That included street upgrades for the CBD and the planned redevelopment of Marine Parade - the major project which would propel the city forward.

Source: Statistics NZEditorial, p6 Napier's Music Machine owner Richard Jackman said he thought the figures "were about right" as it had been one of the most difficult winters to trade through in his 20 years in retail.
"The whole of winter was hard going. Literally from July through to September it was hard work. I'm always trying to be optimistic and I will say that October seems to have been a little bit better and we are looking forward to a lift in summer."
Hastings City Business Association acting chairwoman Sandra Hazlehurst said retailers were being encouraged to use new shopping technology to boost sales.
"The way people shop is changing with more and more people shopping online and often purchasing goods offshore.
"The challenge is for our retailers to embrace this change and run websites with electronic payment gateways for those who wish to shop online," she said.
Ms Hazlehurst said that with Christmas on the way, and a large number of events planned in Hawke's Bay this summer, the region was likely to see an increase in visitors which in turn would benefit the retail sector.
"The general feeling from retailers is cautious optimism for Christmas trade."
Hastings retailer Darren Olsen took over Alexander's Menswear almost a year ago and said poor weather and a flat economy were two of the factors for the city's less than desirable retail figures.
"I wasn't here for the 2011 September quarter so I can't compare the two. But I think in clothing retail, the summer weather brings a lot more customers out for sales. Sometimes the town is really dead but then on nice days, like today, things are looking a bit more active around the place.
"We do get a few customers from Napier and Taradale but the bulk are from Hastings and Havelock North.
"I'm new to retail and this is my first year, so next year I will have a full set of figures to compare trade."
Nationally, seasonally-adjusted retail sales dipped 0.8 per cent since the June quarter.
This was led by New Zealand's three largest retail industries: supermarket and grocery sales dipped 1.6 per cent, motor-vehicles and parts sales dropped 1.8 per cent and fuel retailing was down 1.9 per cent.
Business NZ chief executive Phil O'Reilly said the decline was relatively minor.
"It's not bad especially as the New Zealand economy faces really significant headwinds."
The weak performance of the manufacturing sector combined with the preference for many "mums and dads" to pay off debt at the moment could have caused a much larger downturn, he said.
"The fact that you've seen really quite a moderate downturn in retail is actually quite an impressive performance."
A strong September month for the service industry may have offset the drop in sales, Mr O'Reilly suggested.
Christmas shoppers were also expected to boost sales in the coming months, he said.
Statistics NZ industry and labour statistics manager Blair Cardno said shoppers spent less in more than half of the retail industries during the September quarter.
"The only industry we saw them spending significantly more in was hardware, building and garden supplies, which was lifted by higher sales in the Canterbury region." Sales volumes in this industry rose 4.2 per cent.
While retails sales were down from the growth period of 2011, total sales were up during the last quarter year-on-year.
"Retail sales volumes remains 2.6 per cent higher than a year ago, when the Rugby World Cup was on," ASB economist Daniel Smith said.
"We expect moderate growth in spending to continue."
Mr Smith said the decline in supermarket sales would ease in the coming months.
"Other sectors were patchy, but we see no fundamental reason for the weakness in supermarket sales - the prime driver of the weak overall result - to continue in coming quarters."APNZ

[Video] Bye Bye Bathtub Boy!
SOTU! The Liberal Media spent this weekend wondering if President Obama will "move to the Middle" in his State of the Union Speech. Several say he already has. Former Bush advisor Karen Hughes remarked that President Obama's first Two Years were "him" and these next two years he will become whatever is required to win in 2012…..namely, "become a Republican." Gibson examines.
Date Night! At the State of the Union, what's the takeaway from this move to have Democrats and Republicans "sit together" to "unite" after the Arizona Shootings (that didn't have anything to do with Politics.) One anchor said anyone opposed to the idea, was a "jackass." What is Gibson?
2012! With President Obama rising in the polls as he rhetorically embraces Republican Ideals, will the chances to beat him be "more difficult than anyone is saying" as Governor Mike Huckabee contends? Gibson looks. Plus: Romney wins his virtual Home State Straw Poll but will Tea Party forgive RomneyCare?

Johan Djourou says this is his season to step up and be a regular for Arsenal.
The defender spent almost all of last term on the sidelines with a knee injury but is ready to fill the void left by the departures of William Gallas and Mikael Silvestre.
"Now it is time to step up and start," he told Arsenal.com in Austria. "I will always say that but now I am mature enough.
"We will have to see with the injury because when you have it for so long it is difficult to come straight back into things.
"But I played 90 minutes against Strum Graz and it went well. I have to get other games under my belt and hopefully I will be ready."
Arsène Wenger has stated that his side need to concede less than the 41 goals they let in last season. Djourou agrees and suggests Arsenal could be a bit more aggressive.
"I thought that we were looking quite solid," he said. "But it is true that 41 goals is too much when you are playing for the top places.
"I think sometimes we are missing a bit of aggression. It is not that we are not good enough, because the team is good enough.
"We have top players at the back, top players all over the pitch. It is just that we have to be stronger as a unit."

No. 2 USC Edges No. 3 UCLA In UCI Invite Semifinal
Feb. 24, 2013
IRVINE, CALIF. -- The No. 2 USC women's water polo team got the last word in a see-saw battle with No. 3 UCLA today in the semifinals of the UCI Invitational. Kaleigh Gilchrist blasted one through with 2 seconds left, and USC held on for the 11-10 victory that puts the Trojans into this evening's championship bout with top-ranked Stanford. USC improves to 11-0 with today's win over its crosstown rivals.
USC freshman Anni Espar recorded her first hat trick as a Trojan today to lead USC's scoring attack. Espar's second of the day got USC a tight 8-7 lead near the close of the third frame, but the game would stay neck-and-neck. The Bruins were awarded a 5-meter penalty shot to open the fourth, converting for the 8-8 tie. Espar again got USC the go-ahead with her third strike making it 9-8. Again, UCLA would draw even, answering that Espar goal and then a Monica Vavic score on a 6-on-5. Locked up 10-10, USC's Kaleigh Gilchrist plugged in what would stand as the winner. Her bullet with 2 ticks to go proved the difference, and the Women of Troy were through to the title match.
No. 2 USC will face No. 1 Stanford in the championship game at 5:15 p.m. today (Feb. 24) in Irvine.

Exposure locks when pressing shutter halfway in evaluative metering mode in Canon
I have a problem with my Canon EOS 400D/Rebel XTi camera. I use Av mode most of the time and realised that in evaluative metering mode the camera locks the exposure value (exposure time) when I press the shutter release button halfway to fix the focus. This is problem, because 99% I recompose the picture after locking the focus and the lighting changes with turning the camera. I suppose the * button should only fix the exposure. With other metering modes (center weighted and partial) the exposure is not locked and the exposure time changes by recomposing the image.
I made a little survey amongst my friends having Canon cameras, and it turned out that some cameras lock the exposure time in evaluative mode while others not.
In Custome Functions the setting for the shutter release button is set to 0 (default) all the time in all the examined cameras.
So it seems that this behaviour depends on the camera type/firmware.
Is this a bug or what?

Ghirlandaio and Florence. A Renaissance family of painters.
Domenico Ghirlandaio was the son of a goldsmith. He had become very famous for his flower wreaths buy baclofen 25 canada prescription discount prices cheap baclofen free buy generic baclofen online australia discounts buy generic baclofen 25 mg (ghirlande) that were worn as hair ornaments by the young ladies of Florence and for this reason he was called "Ghirlandaio."
Domenico did not follow his father's footsteps, preferring to become a painter. His shop started in 1450 and was one of the most important and productive of Florence for almost 100 years. He worked with his brothers David and Benedetto and his son Ridolfo.
Ghirlandaio had a talent for portraits and this is the reason why he was so requested by the most important Florentine families. Looking at his works is like watching a movie about the life of Florence in the second half of 1400. He organized the work so to personally take care of the preparation of the cartons, of the implementation of the scenes and of the most important details, leaving the rest to his many talented young pupils. This way the work progressed rapidly and the result was of good quality. Among the many helpers that had always thanked him for having revealed the secrets of the trade also the young Michelangelo. where can i buy online fluoxetine . purpose and appropriate same-sex campaign is additionally a often wanted journalist of saskatchewan's order generic fluoxetine , fucidin online buy baclofen online baclofen medication baclofen free saturday delivery baclofen pump trial cpt germany (de) purchase online without prescription

PHILADELPHIA -- The Phillies' playoff push will go on without ace Cole Hamels.
Aaron Rowand hit a go-ahead homer and Kyle Kendrick remained unbeaten at home, leading Philadelphia to a 5-4 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night.
The Phillies won the opener of a 10-game homestand that also includes visits by San Diego and the NL East-leading Mets. Philadelphia also moved into a tie with the Padres for the wild-card lead.
But the win was tempered by the news that Hamels has a mild left elbow strain and could miss his next two starts, including Wednesday night's outing against the Dodgers. Hamels will have an MRI exam Wednesday and might miss up to three weeks depending on the results, team doctor Michael Ciccotti said.
"Every time you turn around, someone else is getting hurt," said Phillies closer Brett Myers, who earned his 12th save.
Myers, Tom Gordon, Ryan Howard, Chase Utley, Freddy Garcia, Adam Eaton and Jon Lieber are only some of the key Phillies who have spent considerable time on the disabled list this year. Even with three-fifths of their expected rotation out, and the middle of the lineup in flux, manager Charlie Manuel has found a way to keep the Phillies in the playoff hunt.
"We have heart, man," Myers said. "This team's got that edge. Teams that have been here the last four years really haven't had that edge. The will to win is here more than it has been in the past."
The Phillies could have Utley back in the lineup for the New York series. Utley took some practice cuts for the first time since his right hand was hit by a pitch nearly a month ago and could be ready by the weekend for a short rehab assignment.
With Garcia, Eaton and Lieber all on the DL, the Phillies were forced to use a patchwork rotation anchored by Hamels and veteran lefty Jamie Moyer. Kendrick (6-3) has been a nice surprise since he was called up in mid-June, and this start was no exception.
He allowed four runs and seven hits in 6 2/3 innings to earn his first win since July 29 and improve to 5-0 with a 3.46 ERA in eight home starts.
J.C. Romero and Gordon held the lead, and Myers worked a perfect ninth.
Shortstop Jimmy Rollins, one of the few Phillies this season who hasn't spent time on the disabled list, had his left knee wrapped in ice after the game because of tendinitis. He said it wasn't serious.
"It's something that's been going on all year," Howard said about the injuries. "We've been through it so many times. We keep getting people who step up."
James Loney and Russell Martin homered on an unseasonably chilly night for the Dodgers, who trail Philadelphia and two other teams in the wild-card race.
"Kendrick kept competing and he hung in long enough to get a win," Dodgers manager Grady Little said. "That's all you can ask for from any pitcher."
The Dodgers staked Brett Tomko (2-11) to a 3-0 lead after two innings. Andre Ethier and Luis Gonzalez each had run-scoring hits in the first, and Martin led off the second with his 15th home run.
Martin became the first catcher since Ivan Rodriguez in 1999 with 15 homers and 20 stolen bases.
Kendrick settled down from there and the highest-scoring offense in the National League got going against Tomko, winless since July 15.
Carlos Ruiz hit an RBI double into the left-field corner and Rollins added a sacrifice fly in the third that made it 3-2. Rowand's two-run shot in the fourth, his 21st, put the Phillies ahead 4-3.
Pat Burrell walked with the bases loaded in the fifth for a 5-3 lead, chasing Tomko, who gave up five runs in four-plus innings. He jawed with plate umpire Fieldin Culbreth on the mound for a few moments before trudging back to the dugout.
"In my eyes, one of those pitches was a strike, but he called them balls," Tomko said. "But it's still my job to get them out."
Loney homered off Kendrick leading off the seventh.

Premier League Darts: Finals Night Review
Sports writer Bradley West reports on what happened at the 2017 edition of Finals Night in the Premier League DartsWritten by Bradley West on 20th May 2017
Bradley Wiggins' storming victory in the men's time trial secured his place as Britain's greatest ever athlete. Don't believe me? Just look at the facts.
His victory in front of Hampton Court Palace placed him amongst a truly elite group of British Olympians with four or more gold medals, joining Matthew Pinsent, Sir Chris Hoy, Sir Steven Redgrave and Paulo Radmilovic, who dominated the sport of water polo between 1908 and 1920. It also moved him to first place on the list of British medallists, with a total of seven medals since making his Olympic debut in Sydney back in 2000. In World Championships in both track and road racing, Wiggins has collected 11 medals, six of them gold.
Wiggins' impact on his sport in Great Britain extends beyond mere medals, having won arguably the toughest race on the planet at this year's Tour de France. Though some detractors put his success down to the performances of Chris Froome and the rest of Team Sky, Wiggins' dominance in the time trials and his willingness to attack the likes of Vincenzo Nibali in the Pyrenees proved that his victory was fully deserved. Unlike most cyclists, such as Mark Cavendish and Mick Rogers who have made the transition from track to road racing, Wiggins has become a powerful all round cyclist, capable of matching the very best in the world over huge distances and up steep inclines. Though Wiggins was an outstanding track cyclist, he has swiftly become the very best road racer in the world, a fact underlined by his 40 second winning margin over German time trial World Champion Tony Martin.
Wiggins' remarkable success in 2012 takes on a far greater significance when we examine the history of British cycling. Prior to Wiggins, Britain's best road cyclist was Chris Boardman, who won gold in the time trial at the 1994 World Championships, but struggled with crashes and medical issues throughout his career. This statement depends on your perspective of course: Mark Cavendish is a brilliant sprinter but as an all rounder he falls well short of Boardman, Wiggins and even lesser British names like Froome and David Millar.
The issue with declaring an athlete the greatest ever often comes down to how greatness is defined. For some, greatness is about medals and wins. For others, it is about one off feats – records and milestones that no other athlete in their generation could achieve. My argument rests on Wiggins' success across all definitions. Roger Bannister was an incredible athlete and set the first ever four minute mile, but he only won medals in European and Commonwealth competitions. Daley Thompson competed in one of the hardest Olympic events and won the decathlon twice between 1980 and 1984. He was undefeated in the decathlon between 1979 and 1987, but his total medal haul of three in world competitions in this period is far less impressive than many of his contenders to the title of Britain's greatest athlete. His arrogance and refusal to consider others athletes as being on his level even to this day may cloud my judgment, but humility and sportsmanship is one of the many factors I felt obliged to consider when making the decision to crown Wiggins the greatest.
In all honesty my decision came down to a choice between Redgrave and Wiggins. Sir Chris Hoy is a remarkable athlete and has the opportunity to overtake Redgrave on the all time Olympic medal table (a gold in London would move him ahead of Redgrave by virtue of his one silver medal). Hoy's brilliance is tempered, however, as his successes have come at a time when Britain has enjoyed a plethora of world leading track cyclists – Wiggins among them. The Scotsman is not the trailblazer Belgian-born Wiggins is. Perhaps this is an unfair way of measuring greatness, as it prejudices against those who through no fault of their own compete against other brilliant sportsmen and women. However, had Hoy won gold in 2000, or been able to take more medals in 2004, then there might be no need for this debate and the fact remains that road cycling is a much more gruelling, yet equally competitive sport as track cycling. Wiggins' ability to compete and dominate in both places him above Hoy in my eyes.
Redgrave is the only athlete who matches Wiggins for medal success and beats him for longevity. Anyone who wishes to declare him our country's best ever athlete will not find me arguing with them - it is hard to deny either of them the right to the title. For me though, Wiggins just shades it, simply because Redgrave's medals came whilst competing as a team with the likes of Matthew Pinsent and James Cracknell, who in their own right were truly exceptional rowers. As a man, as an icon, as a shining example for young British sportspeople, Wiggins is unparalleled. He is the champion of the world's most physically exhausting event and now the owner of seven Olympic medals. Is he the best ever British athlete? It would be very hard to disagree.

Garfield - General FAQ
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Garfield For the Atari 2600 FAQ/Walkthrough Last Updated 2/27/05 Version 1.1 Written & Compiled by "TestaALT" Email address email@example.com This file is Copyright (c) 2005 Andrew "TestaALT" Testa. All rights reserved. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< ================== Table of Contents: ================== 1. Version History 2. Introduction 3. Dedication 4. Controls 5. Walkthrough 6. Frequently Asked Questions 7. Credits 8. Legal Disclaimer 9. Contact Information ============================================================================= 1. Version History ============================================================================= Version 1.1 (02/27/05): Reformatted guide. Version 1.0 (02/21/05): Initial version of document - it's complete. ============================================================================= 2. Introduction ============================================================================= Yeah, it's a prototype so the game's not complete. Not anywhere near complete, actually. In fact, there are only six SCREENS in the entire game! No real story - you can resave the grey cat at the end of the game as many times as you like. The worst part, though, is that the scoring system doesn't result in anything and you can get unlimited points by standing on the fence. It possibly could have been better if it was complete. ============================================================================= 3. Dedication ============================================================================= I dedicate this guide to all Atari 2600 gamers out there. They really keep this system alive, even though it seems "dead." Atari 2600, in a lot of people's minds, was the first gaming console ever created. This really isn't true, as there were other obscure systems before it. However, this was most people's first video game system - this is the system that brought them into gaming. And so, I dedicate this guide to the Atari 2600 gamers that still play this old system and keep it alive. This guide is also dedicated to Brian P. Sulpher and AboveAverage. Where did you go, AboveAverage? You told me which system to write for! And of course, Brian taught all of us that you can write billions and billions of guides for old games. ============================================================================= 4. Controls ============================================================================= Fire Button: Used to jump. Joystick: Positions which direction you want to jump. Down (On Joystick): Allows Garfield to Crouch. ============================================================================= 5. Walkthrough ============================================================================= "Slow Burger" Screen: Just go across the fence in this screen; there is no threat whatsoever. Burgers slowly go across the screen (they are worth fifty points each) but you don't get anything for the points. "Slow Flowerpot" Screen: It's the exact same layout as the last screen but flowerpots go across the screen instead of burgers. Flowerpots actually hurt you; in fact, they take away one of your two lives. Go across a couple fences - crouch so the flowerpot doesn't hit you - and continue across to the end of the screen. They go really slow so you shouldn't get hit. Roof Screen: Hop across the screen until you reach the chimney. Here, Odie the dog will pop up from the chimney every couple of seconds. Time it so he's inside the chimney when you hop over it and go to the next screen. "Fast Burger" Screen: Same exact deal as the Slow Burger screen but the burgers go a lot faster. They still won't hurt you, though, and are still worth fifty points. Jump on the fences to reach the next screen. "Fast Flowerpot" Screen: This is the first area in the game that requires a brain to complete. The Flowerpots go across the screen pretty fast, and you can get nipped by them if you are just about to crouch. The best strategy here is to go a fence or two, crouch to avoid the flowerpot, and continue to the end of the screen. Cat Screen: No flying pots or burgers will jump out at you here. Jump across the fence until you reach the grey cat. Congratulations, you just completed the world's easiest game! Because this game wasn't complete, it does a few odd areas until it restarts to the first level. I'll list the two new "odd levels" here. "Fast Burger" Mirror Screen: It's the exact same as the first level but there are two screens and you are jumping on the dog. "Fast Flowerpot" Mirror Screen: Same as the regular fast flowerpot screen but again there are two screens and Garfield jumps on the dog instead of fence. And that's it for this small prototype. You also (might) get a couple of regular screens before you go back to the Slow Hamburger screen, but that's it as far as new stuff. Come to think of it, the mirror screens could have separated the grey cat and Garfield. However, the developers never got around to doing anything else so we will never know. ============================================================================= 6. Frequently Asked Questions ============================================================================= Question: How many levels are in this game? Answer: Six screens, if that's what you mean. Question: Why is this game so short? Answer: It's just a prototype - the developers never finished it. Question: Did this game ever sell to the public? Answer: I'm not entirely sure; it might have sold in a bundle pack or a prototype. Question: So how did you get this game? Answer: You ask too many questions... >_> Question: Who is the dog in the chimney? Answer: That's Odie. Question: Who is the grey cat? Answer: That's Nermal - I got that from the review. ;) Question: What's up with the mirror screen? Answer: I don't know, maybe they wanted to incorporate two players in that screen but never got around to it. Question: Why do you jump on the dog instead of fence? Answer: I haven't the slightest idea. Question: Can I play this with a friend? Answer: Pfft... it's not even complete. Question: My game doesn't work, how do I get it to work!? Answer: You might have a corrupted version of the game, or perhaps the old 2 K version, which doesn't work very well. Question: Where can I get this game? Answer: The Atari 2600 hasn't had any new games made for years, so you can't buy it from them. You can get the game at a garage sale or ebay, if you like. ROMs also work, if you have the game and it is broken, that is. ============================================================================= 7.

The major oil companies say they are monitoring dropping commodity prices daily.
The Automobile Association (AA) wants them to cut their prices immediately, saying the imported cost of petrol and diesel has fallen about four cents per litre since prices last went up on February 13.
AA spokesman Mark Stockdale says that means margins are well above average.
"Unfortunately, prices went up 11 cents in February, and fortunately things are looking up slightly, so it is time for the fuel companies to drop prices."
Both BP and Caltex say they are monitoring prices daily, with a spokesman for BP acknowledging the drop. However, they have been holding off on reducing prices because the situation has been volatile the last few days.
Mr Stockdale says that is not good enough.
"The reality is the margin is about four cents above the normal level that it has been for the past year or so, so it is long overdue for fuel companies to pass the savings onto motorists."

Smacking, Slapping, and Spanking Lisette's PHAT Jiggling Ass gets started with her fanny packed in black mesh panties. As she ties her shirt up, out of "palms way", we all get to ogle at her Very Spankable Ass. [John] politely asks Lisette, "Mind if I spank 'Ya a little bit?" With pause, and no reply... she doesn't answer. He asks again while tugging up her panties a tad, enjoying her PHAT wobbling ass. "Mind if I spank 'Ya a little bit?" Before she even replies, the sound of "Hand Palm" smacking her Jelly-Luscious fanny begins. You'll watch with delight as her Fat Wiggling Ass ripples with each smack. "I love spanking your big fanny" John says, while watching her big bottom wiggle, and wobble. "You've gotta nice big PHAT ass to spank." From there, Lisette's Big Phat Wobbling Ass is smacked, slapped, and spanked. You'll hear her "gasp" throughout the video as the heat on her big wide ass becomes uncomfortable to her. Visually enjoy her dressed in tan stockings, and in (one) of her blue dresses. The video closes with her snuggled in a "Pink Panty Extra". More is always better, right? Ooh Baby! Spank it Up!

Berklee College Of Music professor Raydar Ellis began a high-profile-for-CMJ discussion of the relationship between hip-hop and jazz by talking about Miles Davis. The jazz icon's son Erin Davis and nephew Vince Wilburn Jr. discussed his legacy with Revive Music C.E.O. Megahn Stabile and Wax Poetics Editor-In-Chief Andre Torres. However, the conversation soon evolved into an open-forum session about jazz's under-appreciated influence on contemporary hip-hop, as attendees and surprise panelists Jean Grae and Pharoahe Monch joined the milieu. "Jazz for young people is something older people do," said Torres, who noted that contemporary mainstream hip-hop incorporates electronic sounds over jazz because techno is more profitable in younger markets. "I show kids in their 20s my magazine, and when they see someone with an Afro on the cover they go, 'Oh man, my mom would love this,'" he said.
The discussion started by tossing around names like Digable Planets, the Pharcyde and A Tribe Called Quest, but quickly turned to study the Throne, whose virtually jazzless hip-hop rules the mainstream. "For the guys in [mainstream] hip-hop now, it's a business," Davis said of artists like Kanye West and Jay-Z. "They're not going, 'Man, I gotta express myself. I really want to tap into the source of this.'" Panelists agreed that the burden of paying proper homage to hip-hop's roots lies as much on the shoulders of artists and the media as those of the listeners. "Kids are amazingly lucky today, but they don't know it and they're fucking lazy," Jean Grae told the audience. Despite unprecedented access to music via the Internet, listeners by and large aren't looking into the lineage of the music they listen to, nor do most search for contemporary jazz/hip-hop musicians. But part of the problem, a panel attendee countered, is that the media isn't giving enough attention to those little-known artists. "Who's gonna tell them who to listen to?" an attendee asked. "Hot 97," a panelist responded dryly.
As for artists, panelists dissected the challenges for up-and-coming jazz/hip-hop musicians in a market that doesn't pay much attention to jazz. Kanye West and Jay-Z aren't doing any jazz collaborations, but jazz fusion musicians can't sit around waiting for the Throne to come knocking, Wilburn said. "Certain hip-hop stars really respect jazz, but if we wait for them to reach out to us it's not gonna happen." Torres lauded crossover musicians like Robert Glasper and Esperanza Spalding for developing the next generation of jazz/hip-hop sounds. "Young jazz cats" now face the challenge of internalizing the music of legends like Miles Davis and Charlie Parker "in a way that becomes their own" and resonates with other members of their generation.

Guardian Analytics Unveils Behavior-based Fraud Solution for ACH
Guardian Analytics has announced FraudMAP ACH, a new product that automatically analyzes ACH batches and transactions and prioritizes the highest risk payments for review.
"With ACH transaction volumes growing and criminals more eloquently tampering with ACH files, financial institutions are expending significant resources monitoring for fraudulent transactions and in many cases failing," said Craig Priess, founder and vice president of Products and Business Development at Guardian Analytics. "This is not a sustainable model. FraudMAP ACH fundamentally changes both the manner in which and how successfully a financial institution manages ACH payments risk."

There is a group of unsung leaders on Baker University's campus.
They dedicate themselves to their team, set high personal goals and have been training vigorously for their next big event.
Matthew Potterton, director of choral activities, said this year's selection of male choir members is a big asset to the group.
"We have about 25 guys in the group who sing bass and tenor," Potterton said. "I have a strong male section this year, which is exciting."
For some of the group, choir is what drew them to Baker.
"The big reason I chose Baker was because of choir," sophomore Tim Laughlin said. "I … really felt that if I didn't pursue music in college, that I would essentially lose a big chunk of who I am."
Junior Paul Eltschinger added that choir is a welcome break from academic life.
"Starting at a young age my parents put me in a children's choir, and I haven't stopped singing since," Eltschinger said. "Choir is also my place to get away from the stress of typical college course-work."
Above all, choir is a challenge and a place to improve in more than one way, said Laughlin.
"Dr. Potterton is a great professor with high standards when it comes to preparation and memorization," Laughlin said. "…You develop not only your voice, but also the person who you will soon become in the future."
Both Laughlin and Eltschinger are involved in greek life and said other fraternity members are coming to choral events to support their fraternity brothers.
"I actually performed at a forum (Wednesday) and three of my fraternity brothers came to listen to me," Laughlin said. "The funny thing is that most of my friends are in the concert themselves."
The choir is preparing for its fall concert, which will be at 7:30 p.m. Friday at the Baldwin First United Methodist Church. Eudora High School Choir and Baldwin City Children's Choir will participate. Listeners can expect a variety of music.
"I try to find music that spans several historical periods as well as a good blend of fast and slow pieces," Potterton said.
According to Laughlin and Eltschinger, long and numerous practices, challenging objectives and adapting to a variety of styles are all worth having a great concert.

Just last week, we came out with a story about Iranian hackers that compromised intelligence group IHS Janes along with others. Along with the release of those documents, they made some pretty specific threats that involved taking control of drone craft to attack Vice President Joe Biden and his secret service convoy. They also mentioned using drone craft to attack sensitive sites on US soil. The threats would merely be interesting except for the fact that they were specific about the security weakness in drone technology, and the fact that the state of Iran has hacked into aspects of actual drones before, as evidenced in release of drone video and potentially in the capture of one of the craft.
What is striking about this is that the intelligence information that was released contains a good deal of airport intel. Fast forward to a few days ago, where the news emerged that a mystery drone was spotted by a pilot near JFK airport. The FAA and FBI are reportedly looking into information around this as there is little known about the nature of this mystery drone sighting.
Today the claim emerged that Parastoo, the Iranian hacker group involved in the earlier story was actually involved in this recent event.
We have received a tip from a Persian observer and a source that the recent OP at JFK was done by Parastoo based on their last publication and since, based on their expressions on an underground forum, Joe Biden made statements at AIPAC that made them more angry. There is evidence Parastoo is a role player in #OPISRAEL and the upcoming wave. The JFK Lulz was a Joint OP done by people involved with these groups with Parastoo providing the "know-how" and others bringing logistics to the gang.
It's also being reported that there are a number of hacking groups working in unified effort towards the goal under some capacity to erase Israel from the web on April 7th. The planned massive cyber attack on Israeli domains. The attack is being initiated under the banner #opIsrael in an Anonymous-style crowd effort.
According to the tip, the claim is that Parastoo has provided the intelligence on how to hack into drones and another group has executed it. If reports are true that the FBI and FAA are investigating the mystery drone event, then they are likely aware of this claim.
So back to the questions at hand. Were Parastoo's threats legitimate? The info they leaked was certainly actionable, so does this now mean they have not only the specific threats, but even further evidence of their drone compromise skill? It really comes down to what gets reported about the incident, perhaps the JFK drone was just a lost specimen or in a Roswell-style moment in time, turns out to be a weather balloon or something. Perhaps the attribution to Parastoo is just opportunistic, perhaps there's someone out there just trying to scare up some reactions, but maybe- just maybe this is something that has some real implications to it.

Poll: What is your favorite story that I have written? Vote Now!
Author has written 6 stories for Romance.
You probably are reading this right now because you're wondering just who this kanders girl is.To curb your curiosity, I'll tell you that I'm just someone who has an active imagination that just won't shut up. I have so many random ideas in my head that I need to write some of them down and further their stories. The funny thing is, either when I'm trying to come up with a new plot, or figure out how to write the next chapter of one of them, the best ideas come to me when I'm either trying to go to sleep, or already have on foot in dreamland. So, when I wake up, those ideas are just a distant bubble that has already half floated away. Sometime I'll remember it, and sometimes I won't. The easy solution is to just put a pad of paper right by my bed so I could quickly jot those things down, but I am usually so comfortable that why would I want to move my arm or my hand to make legible letters of my thoughts? Sorry, but I love my sleep. It's right up there with food on my list of my favorite things in life.
Anyhoo, I just started a new story called, The Vow which I am really excited for, and I hope you guys enjoy it.
I just got a fanfiction account, click here to go to it.
Also I have a website! It's in the link entitled Homepage on the top left-ish of this page :) There you will find character pictures, a guestbook you can sign if you feel so inclined, and just short dabbles about my life.
I hope you like my stories, and I always love reading your reviews. They keep me going :)
PS: My twitter is now up and running-ish...still getting the hang of it but LOVE IT. My name is xkandersx...add me!
