I. only used this 2 times and it is in excellent condition. And when I used it, it was from the front of a Carolina Skiff. With shipping I paid $168 for this a couple of months ago.
Reason for selling is that I bought the wrong kind of gigging light for use in a boat (this model is designed for flounder gigging while walking in the water rather than flounder gigging from a boat). I am going to replace it with a light designed for a boat (or build my own).
The picture is from the manufacturer's website http://www.fishinglightsetc.com but it is identical to what I have. This light is very bright and it uses LED lights, so it has a very low power draw. I live in Raleigh but come to Hubert frequently and can meet you if you are interested.

Benefits of EXELO2 Skin Resurfacing Treatments
posted on
Some of the latest fractional skin resurfacing devices can treat a number of skin conditions and also reverse the signs of aging. The EXELO2 skin resurfacing procedure is an innovative skin rejuvenation system developed by MedSurge Advances, and offers a number of benefits beyond some of today's leading fractional resurfacing procedures. With minimal downtime and visible results after a single session, many medical spas and cosmetic dermatology centers are now promoting the EXELO2 skin resurfacing procedure as a safe, powerful and effective anti aging skin treatment.
Get in touch with a cosmetic dermatologist or medical spa in your area to find out if you may be a good candidate for the EXELO2 fractional skin resurfacing treatment. Your licensed skincare professional can explain the pros and cons of this procedure, and evaluate the condition of your skin to determine if you will be a good candidate for the procedure.
Top Benefits of EXELO2 Skin Resurfacing Treatments
The EXELO2 skin resurfacing treatment offers a number of skin rejuvenation benefits, and is safe and effective for almost all skin types. Some of the key benefits of the EXELO2 skin resurfacing treatments include:
- Complete facial ablation performed in just fifteen minutes
- Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Minimal downtime
- Patient can resume regular activities immediately after the procedure
- No local anesthesia or numbing cream required
- Patient can wear light makeup shortly after the procedure
- Physician can control the pulse width to address a variety of skin conditions
- No major scarring involved
How EXELO2 Skin Resurfacing Works
The EXELO2 skin resurfacing system uses a fractional laser which works by creating hundreds of microscopic perforations in the damaged areas of the skin, while leaving the rest of the skin intact. The laser light beam then passes through the skin and creates micro-injuries in the tissues. These injuries trigger the body's natural healing process, which causes an increase in collagen production and a noticeable tightening of the skin. Since only about 15 to 20 percent of the skin is damaged during the session and the rest of the tissues remain intact, the skin heals very quickly.
The EXELO2 skin resurfacing device is different from the Pixel and Er:YAG lasers because it has a different wavelength and absorbs less water during the treatment process. This means that the laser can easily vaporize the top layer of the skin and helps to shrink the skin tissues to create a tight, contoured appearance.
The EXELO2 laser resurfacing system is not designed for patients with connective tissue diseases, and cannot be performed on patients that are taking Accutane. Those who have highly active rosacea, active acne cysts or large pustules are not good candidates for fractional laser skin resurfacing procedures, and must wait until their condition improves before undergoing any type of aggressive skin treatment.
Learn more about the fractional skin resurfacing treatments in our information guide, or consult with a cosmetic dermatologist in your area to find out if you may be a good candidate for the EXELO2 skin resurfacing procedure.

LONDON — Famed British scientist Stephen Hawking would like to visit the United States again, but fears that he "may not be welcome" since the election of President Donald Trump.
During the White House campaign, the theoretical physicist and University of Cambridge professor called Trump a demagogue and said the real estate mogul's popularity was beyond his understanding.
Asked what he thinks of him now during a wide-ranging interview with Piers Morgan on "Good Morning Britain," Hawking said Trump's election "represents a definite swing to a right-wing more authoritarian approach."
Hawking added that even though everyday life in the U.S. seems to be continuing much the same as it always has, he fears that the new administration will have a chilling effect on the scientific community.
"I would like to visit again and talk to other scientists. But I fear that I may not be welcome," he said.
Morgan asked the man who is best known for his discovery that black holes emit radiation, if had a message for the new U.S. president.
"He should replace Scott Pruitt at the Environmental Protection Agency. Climate change is one of the great dangers we face. And it's one we can prevent. It effects America badly, so tackling it should win votes for his second term. God forbid," Hawking added with a wry smile.
The 75-year-old British scientist was diagnosed with a slow-progressing motor neurone disease in 1963 that has left him paralyzed over the decades. He communicates using a cheek muscle attached to a speech-generating device. He was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, America's highest civilian honor, by President Barack Obama in 2009.
Morgan asked Hawking if he agreed with the assessment of many that he is the "most intelligent human being in the world."
"I would never claim this. People who boast about their IQs are losers," Hawking replied — getting a laugh out of Morgan.
The two discussed a variety of issues, from Brexit to feminism. But, Morgan couldn't resist asking the genius the ultimate question: What is the meaning of life?
"The Dali Lama, when I interviewed him recently, told me the meaning of life is happiness. What do you think?" Morgan asked.
Hawking replied, "I have no idea. But I do remember when I was happiest. It was 1967 and the birth of my first child, Robert. My three children have brought me great joy."
The professor said that his ultimate ambition now is to "float into space" and that Sir Richard Branson has offered him a seat on Virgin Galactic.

Sure but that's a byproduct of this being a shortened season. They actually have a worse record now than they had 30 games into last season. I'm pretty sure if the season started in October that the Oilers would be a lot closer to 30th than 15th.
Of course, that's a lot of what ifs but i'm sure that most can see based on the eye test that this team is closer to a bottom feeder than a playoff team.
I agree with those who say that there is very little developing going on. It has been the same story for years just with a new cast of characters every several years. This franchise hasn't had a star player since Weight and none of the current players are showing true star potential just yet. Even when a player like Gagner shows some upward development, RNH and Eberle along with Petry and Smid start showing regressions. Yakupov is having one of the worst rookie seasons for a #1 in a long time. Justin Schultz now looks completely lost after a solid start etc.
Also, this seems to be a graveyard for solid veterans and any solid veterans that are here tend to get apathetic after a while.
It's pretty disconcerting to see this play out time after time and i think it's fair that fans vent their frustrations even if it could get a bit out of hand at times.

text: UPDATED 04:36 2nd February 2015 Swansea City have completed the signing of Southampton midfielder Jack Cork on January 30, 2014. The former England Under-21 international penned a three-and-a-half year deal at the Liberty for an undisclosed fee. Cork, the son of former Swans boss Alan Cork, gave Garry Monk further options in midfield although he has previously featured at right-back for England U21s. He made 151 appearances in all competitions for Southampton, including a previous loan spell in 2008. While at St Mary's, Cork helped the Saints win promotion to the Premier League after finishing runners-up in the Championship. His performances with Southampton also earned him a place in Great Britain's squad for the 2012 Olympics, where he won three caps. He began his career with Chelsea at the age of nine, and went on to captain their Youth and Reserve teams. Cork gained valuable experience over the next few years during loan spells at Bournemouth – for whom he made his senior debut against the Swans – along with Scunthorpe, Southampton, Watford, Coventry and Burnley. After impressing while out on loan, Cork left Stamford Bridge to return to Southampton in 2011, going on to help the Saints book their ticket to the Premier League and become established in the top flight. Cork became the fourth and final signing of the January transfer window, following Kyle Naughton, Matt Grimes and loanee Nelson Oliveira. He was hugely impressive during his first five months at the Liberty. The defensive midfielder featured 15 times in the league in the second half of the season, and scored his first goal for the club in April against Newcastle which set the Swans a new record points tally in the Premier League. Made 36 appearances in 2015-16, with his one goal proving good enough to win the club's goal of the season award.

Leon looked at his not-quite rescuer while he got his breath back. A dark-haired, tonsured man with a broad chest and a little bit of a paunch looked back at him. The man smiled, crow's-feet at the corner of his eyes spreading up his face to wrinkle his brow, and held out a slightly grubby hand.
Leon looked at him warily, bringing his breath back under control, and finally took it, shaking it firmly. Magnus squeezed slightly, his smile becoming a grin.
"I'm not a watcher," said Leon. "I'm a hacker, just like you."
"Hah, perhaps not just like me, nameless. Why did you fight on his terms then?" Magnus nudged the unconscious assailant with a dirty, once-white shoe.
"I'd just incarnated!"
"Quickest way to lose an incarnation is to not pay attention to where you're incarnating, nameless. You won't be anything for long if you're not more careful."
"My name's Leon, Magnus, and I am careful. I'm not stupid."
"Well Leon, let's say I believe you for now and that you were just unlucky. Are you here for a purpose, or just for some... fun?" Magnus raised an eyebrow as he said the last word, and Leon wondered if there was a wrong answer to the question, one he needed to avoid.
"I... I am looking for some people," he said. "When I meet them, I will have a task to complete."
"Caution at last! Well, if you know who these people are I may be able to tell you where you should be looking for them. On the other hand, I have my own jobs here and should be getting back to them sooner rather than later."
Leon nodded, wondering how much he could trust Magnus. He looked down at his assailant again: yes Magnus had taken away the knife, but he hadn't stopped the attack. Leon could still have lost.
"Thank you for your offer, but I think I know where to start looking," he made himself smile as he spoke, keeping his words light.
"Of course you do." Magnus nodded. "If you're headed my way then you are welcome to walk with me a while. Otherwise, I shall wish you the best of luck in your endeavours, and I sincerely hope that if our paths cross again it is for the best of reasons."
Leon picked a street at random and pointed along it. "That's my route."
"Ah, then we are parting company already. I have a meeting outside a campanile to attend, and that is this way." Magnus pointed roughly at right-angles to Leon's path. "Ciao!"
They walked away on the separate ways, Leon wondering how he was going to find the Luna Heretics and Magnus whistling a jaunty tune. Behind them, unseen by Leon but expected by Magnus, the fallen assailant suddenly glowed brilliantly and disintegrated into a mushroom cloud of dust a little under three feet high. The dust swirled and electric colours sparkled in the cloud as it slowly settled, the attacker unmade as quickly as he'd been made in the first place.

|RE: Vector Space Model in Lucene?
|Fri, 14 Nov 2003 20:15:34 GMT
it has its limitations. that is why i am looking at what it would take to solve some of them. parsing documents to recognize sentences and storing sentence boundaries in the index would solve the ones that are most limiting. superposing interterm correlation on top of Lucene isn't very useful because then you have to build a new almost-duplicate index. since when people type in more than one word as a query, they almost invariably mean phrases, a search engine that doesn't take advantage of that isn't making use of fundamental linguistic knowledge. what has to be stored isn't much, but implementing it can be. Herb.... -----Original Message----- From: Erik Hatcher [mailto:email@example.com] Sent: Friday, November 14, 2003 3:08 PM To: Lucene Users List Subject: Re: Vector Space Model in Lucene? I get the feeling you're looking for reasons that Lucene is inadequate. This may be the case for the uses you're speaking of, but there is quite a bit of flexibility with Lucene in terms of Analysis, scoring, and custom Query implementations that all relate to what you've been speaking of. And, of course, Lucene is a low-level component of which a higher level piece could be built around. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com

Sustainable Energy • Many rural areas still lack electricity. Optic fibers can be included in modern power distribution networks, introducing both electricity and internet to rural areas. How is our work as a CDFI affected by broadband access? Community Infrastructure • Through telemedicine, citizens have access to doctors and specialists outside of their geographic area. • Virtual appointments and consultations save on travelling time and costs, preventing workers from taking more time off work. Financial Literacy • Financial literacy courses encouraging smarter money management are often offered online. As a CDFI, First Southwest Bank is dedicated to serving the residents and businesses of Southwest Colorado that historically lack access to financial services or do not currently participate in the mainstream economy.

HARRISON, N.J.– As Kenny Cooper went flying in the air, almost hanging there in slow motion, you could almost feel the Eastern Conference semifinal series slipping away from D.C. United. Bill Hamid's challenge on Cooper resulted in a red card and penalty kick, a deadly combination that looked destined to hand the New York Red Bulls a playoff victory.
That just didn't sound like the kind of script we're used to seeing from this series though, and before the end of the night, events transpired to deliver a far more familiar ending.
After back-up D.C. goalkeeper Joe Willis saved a retaken Cooper penalty, and Rafa Marquez drew a second yellow card to even up the teams, D.C. United what they have done for years. They found a way to beat New York in the playoffs.
This time around it was rookie Nick DeLeon adding his name to the history books of this rivalry, finishing off a beautiful Robbie Russell pass in the 89th minute to help D.C. United win the game, and the series, and book their place in the Eastern Conference final.
The victory moves D.C. United into an East final match-up with the Houston Dynamo, with the first leg set for Sunday at BBVA Compass Stadium, and the second leg set for RFK Stadium on Nov. 18th.
The night was a disaster for the Red Bulls, who dominated possession and created a plethora of chances, but Bill Hamid made a handful of outstanding saves to keep the match scoreless.
The Red Bulls looked poised to break through when Cooper raced onto a Dax McCarty pass and ran at Hamid, who came out and appeared to catch Cooper's leg. Referee Mark Geiger pulled out the red card and pointed to the spot. Cooper converted the penalty, beating Willis, but his hesitation run-up on the attempt led to several Red Bulls players encroaching in the penalty area, which led to the referee waving off the first attempt. Willis saved Cooper's re-take to give D.C. life.
Then Marquez took his turn as villain once again, earning a pair of yellows on fouls of Chris Pontius to earn his marching orders.
With the match 10 on 10, D.C. United finally broke through in the final minutes of regulation when DeLeon slipped into the center of New York's defense and ran onto Russell's through pass before blasting home the winner.
The Red Bulls had one more chance to equalizer in the final moments when they earned a free kick at the top of the penalty arc, but rather than Thierry Henry take the team's last good chance, Roy Miller stepped up and skied the attempt into the stands. A fitting end to an awful night for the Red Bulls.
The playoff defeat, the Red Bulls' third straight first-round playoff exit, likely signals the end of Hans Backe's tenure as head coach. His three-year contract with the team expires in December and with new leadership in the front office, and at Red Bull's global soccer department, Backe has almost certainly coached his last game in New York.
The night could also be Rafa Marquez's final one with the Red Bulls. With a year remaining on his contract, and with Mexican clubs expressing interest, the Mexican star seems destined to leave the Red Bulls.
As for D.C. United, their dream run continues and they now find themselves an East final away from hosting the MLS Cup final. They first have to defeat a strong Houston Dynamo side that has found a new gear in the playoffs. That series begins on Sunday.
Here are the highlights from tonight's match:
What the hell was Henry thinking when he let that clown Miller take that free kick at the end? To me, that summed up the Red Bulls in this series. They really have no one to blame but themselves. Credit to DC for grinding that one out, but man, that was not a well-played series.
I think they will benefit immensely with Sam back
Rabid RBNY
Henry should have known better. That Miller rope a dope fail was embarrassing… I hate DC but i find it hard not to tip my hat to Ben Olsen and his squad. Very impressive season with young players missing their star midfielder. I will remember this season as a season of great games between our clubs.
Speaking on behalf of DCU fans, I agree. It was a great series this year. The rivalry grew by leaps and bounds.
ed houston
i actually was rooting for you guys. good job. for our next series may the best team win and move on to the cup.
Rabid RBNY
You guys may need to clear space in your trophy case…hopefully should the need ever arise I hope RBNY have the forethought to have a carpenter drill a piece of partical board into a wall something…
Ives, please tell me we never see Rafa Marquez again. Please just tell me that.
Don Dallas
If he had any honor he would never put on the kit again.
He has shamed himself so many times, with the LA incident and now this on top of my list.
I think the Red Bulls glaring need for a couple more solid defenseman, speed on the wings with guys who can create, and a new start with a new coach is very evident.
And, as much as I like Henry and his amazing skills- he really messed up tonight. He ruined Cooper's goal, and bizarrely let Miller take that free kick… WTH???
Time to rework the Red Bulls. There are some great pieces, but they haven't seemed like a real team- more like a collection of guys playing soccer. Not to mention the front office does a horrendous job of getting fans in the seats, but maybe that will come with a real team?
Number Ten
What an absolutely crazy and entertaining series. And in the end the Curse of the Metros is alive and well!
Vamos United! Beat Houston!
NYRB are the MLS equivalent to the NFL's Redskins fresh after the Dan Snyder purchase – a ton of marquee free agents and rockstars, lost opportunities with youth, absolutely zero chemistry, and inept coaching.
NYRB front office needs to take the same approach as all the other successful teams (other than Barcelona, the lone exception) and build through the draft and their own youth programs. It is not just about age, it is about TEAM.
Until this team is allowed to build character and chemistry – something that simply cannot be done by "plugging in a marquee star" – we will see the same results over and over and over.
Great post.
The Imperative Voice
LAG makes the star system work but I think that goes to Bruce Arena. An argument is to be made that Cahill hasn't shone, and Marquez speaks for himself. So unlike LA their DPs aren't immaculate. And then NYRB doesn't have a bad supporting cast, but the defense is a little wobbly and the whole thing just feels a tad off chemistry wise. Which is when you need a MLS career coach who might sort out, I want to keep DeRo, I want to ditch Marquez tomorrow, I need to signor trade for this random MLS veteran CB.
NY had a decent draft pick in Meara. NY actually has a decent youth program, it's more a retention issue. Altidore "graduated" and Agudelo was tossed away. So while I agree with the general point that you need to be replenishing players internally and not just signing people — my Dynamo are forever on edge of being too old because of veteran bias — I don't really see that as the problem. That part is working. The problem is tier of veterans between Henry and Cooper, and the kids you're bringing in; and also a little bit of the spastic approach to team-building. You look at DC and that is a team that has been steadily built for years. And that's no so much because they are Team Homegrown like say the awful FCD, but because the team is nicely put together and not rushed.
older & wiser
If Rafa Marquez never wears a Red Bulls jersey again it will be too soon.
my how this redbulls blog has changed its tone…
Paul Lorinczi
Will Henry be back next year? He always looks pissed off. He never seems to be happy with his teammates. Maybe Marquez is gone, but I wonder if Henry stays another year.
Initially I was disappointed DC drafted DeLeon over Enzo Martinez, but I will happily eat crow. DeLeon has had an amazing season and I hope he gets called up by Klinsman. I'm not sure who was at fault for the pk. I though at first glance Cooper may have been offsides and I wasn't initially sure Hamid made any solid contact on Cooper because NBCs coverage of the game was bad. They didn't show all angles on the replay. Anyways DC decided that wasn't going to deter them from getting winning this series and that's what matters the most. United United vamos United!
That PK call was so bad. Hamid did let up, Cooper went down on his own, causing the contact. hell he proved it when he took the PK. NBC finally showed a replay that showed it.
Lousy calls in both games. the back pass not called in the first game, was so laughable.
US Soccer really needs to work on this, along with everyone in soccer in the USA.
Geiger had a good game, which I wouldn't say about Marrufo in the first game. Did Cooper embellish with his dive? Sure, but Hamid left it there with his dive at Cooper's legs. Fair call, in my estimation — which would be made by just about every ref in the world. I disagreed with the final foul call that led to Miller's horrendous free kick attempt — but, then again, I haven't seen a replay to confirm my impression.
Marrufo, on the other hand, missed some calls, with the missed back pass call being the most egregious.
I agree that Geiger was much better than Marrufo. He missed a couple of calls, but he called the game consistently and did not affect the outcome of the game. Certainly, Hamid's red card was a big call, particularly after Geiger did not send off Marquez for punching Pontius earlier, but only shown him yellow. By the way, I could hear Hamid told him "Watch the replay" after being sent off, but the refs are not supposed to watch the replays and if the ref believed that Hamid took Cooper down, he could have shown him the red.
fortunate only
Marquez was solid when he wasn't injured this season. I don't know if it will be enough to bring him back but he is a very good player when fit and one of the best on the roster for NY. Rafa only has one year left in his contract so he has one last chance to prove he was worth at least some of the money he was paid.
As much as people want to sh*t on Marquez and pretend like it's all his fault, the team overall is just mediocre. You can see it on Henry's face, the frustration of getting no help from the midfield and seeing very little of the ball.
NY needs to expand their scouting network into central and south america. There are a lot of players they could pick up on the cheap that would tremendously improve the team. If anyone has to go, it's Backe.
Tony in Quakeland
I don't think that anyone doubts Marquez's talent or his ability. But I think you can't ignore his judgement and, maybe, his character. From calling out teammates, to delivering predictably disastrous fouls, his tenure with the Red Bulls has been hugely disappointing. I mean, who didn't think he was going to pick up a second yellow last night? Is he just stupid? Or does he just not want to be on the field? Before the playoff series, one of the announcers (Twellman, I think) brought up Marquez not seeing red as a a key for the Red Bulls,
These two games were disasters for the Red Bulls DPs. It was a stunning display of waste…
fortunate only
There is no doubt that Marquez' tenure with RB has been dissapointing for a variety of reasons but I don't understand why everyone is so upset about him calling out Ream last year. The criticism was well deserved and he was right.
Nobody blinks when Henry sh*ts on his teammates but if Rafa does it becomes a big deal.
There is a double standard when it comes to Marquez and it is understandable. Rafa never really did enough on or off the pitch to endear himself to the fans but the fans were already against him before he even suited up for the RedBulls.
The Imperative Voice
Marquez sounds like locker room cancer, routinely misses games for injury or suspension (something like 15 games this season? not much more the year before….), and in terms of field value you get hit and miss play from a designated player salary.
Easiest decision in the world. You either release him or do a face saving "loan" back to somewhere in Mexico for the final contract year. Adios, arriba, do not let the door hit you in the butt.
This is not Henry's 15 G 12 A fault. This is not Cooper's 18 G fault. It's Cahill not exactly taking off; it's Marquez monopolizing a massive cap chunk for little in return; it's Miller not doing much. It's not a bad team because it keeps getting this far. But it's less than the sum of its parts. One key reason why is they have a lot of money on Marquez and all he delivers is two yellows = red in only the key match in NYRB recent history. DC gets the winner 10 or so minutes later while NYRB plays the "trap," probably because they're trying to survive on 10 men.
Must be having flashbacks to the DCU glory days of the late 90's – could have sworn that was Richie Williams in the right side of the picture behind DeLeon.
Rafa Marquez is a cancer. That is not a novel concept. Henry frequently looks bemused at his teammates; he has no patience for them and otherwise looks disinterested. This goes to show you that a team can pick up great players, but those same players can be the reason for the team's downfall. And while Henry is still a superb player, I just don't believe that he brings the squad together.
Tim Cahill, on the other hand, is a class act. I was particularly impressed with his actions right after Hamid's red card incident. He is the type of guy you want around young (and all) players. In the last couple of years, NYRB have brought in players that can form the core of a great team. Cahill, McCarty, Pearce, Cooper. I think they should be the focus for this squad going forward.
Ives — Is Najar sitting out the next match as well? Seems impossible to let him play with the punishment Shea received earlier this year. And this is coming from a Dynamo fan not concerned with Najar at all, just curious.
No word yet.
Who is the midget to Deleon's left? Ball boy? An actual child? Ben Olsen?
Surprised no one has commented on the called off PK. I personally HATE when MLS refs call off PKs, but what the heck was Henry doing? He was almost parallel with Cooper when the ball was kicked. Such a wasted opportunity.
The Imperative Voice
I'd respond by asking what Cooper is doing taking PKs. I have the same issue with that, that most people have with Miller taking the late free kick. Neither of Cooper's kicks were sharply hit or well-placed, he was relying on fooling the keeper. Why? Let the meal ticket take it.
But the announcers were suggesting Henry was fooled by Cooper's hesitation step and was breaking on his run. Maybe they are used to it not being called. But yeah, Henry is running into the box right in front of the ref, who by looking at the spot is well-poised to see the encroachment….and has a history of making the call.
But to me it's like I don't think Cooper's that skilled a guy and PKs particularly in this situation are a skilled proposition. I don't understand why one of the more skilled players isn't taking the kick. You put that together with letting Marquez take the team down and Miller take that kick, and it arguably looks worst upon Backe. Where's the direction?
Cooper was 10 for 10 in MLS. 10 for 11 now.
I agree with all that. I also wondered why Cooper was taking the kick. I was shocked to see that 10 for 10 stat. Anyway, that wasn't really even the problem. He made his first attempt. It was Henry (and McCarty?) who encroached the sh!t out of it.
I hardily agree that the blame falls on Backe. I'm sure he's preparing his resume as we speak.
The announcers weer saying that Coopers stutter fooled Henry, but Cooper hesitates like that EVERY TIME. Henry surely had to know this. Addidtionally, Geiger has been known to make the encroachment call. You would have to think Red Bulls staff knew this and warned the players, otherwise thats just poor preparation.
NYRB offseason to do list:
1. Fire Backe
2. Get rid of Marquez.
3. Depth at centerback
4. get some real fullbacks so we don't have to see Lade and Miller any more
5. some speed on the wings (partially addressed by Sam returning and maybe using Lade as a winger instead of a full back)
6. get people to show up to games
7. there's more but I can't think of it right now
Luis C
$ 15,499,368.00 worst expended on a soccer team, I have to accept that I am the fool who paid season tickets no them.
I feel bad for you NYRB fans. You've got arguably the best stadium in the league, and Thierry Henry is your captain, for godsakes, yet the Red Bulls are hemorraging fans. No one really blames you either. Underachievment breeds discontent. Hopefully the new director and coach can put some decent quality on the pitch. You guys deserve it.
The game (team) is a perfect example of the absurdity and unfairness of the DP system. Maybe 5 or 10 years ago the DP system made sense. But not anymore. No one can convince me that paying millions to over-the-hill and often unpleasant and/or arrogant DPs is still beneficial for MLS financially or PR-wise. It is a big waste of money and totally unfair to a lot of players working their bu++s off on the field and risking career-ending injuries who make less money per year than probably some of the groundskeepers, secretaries and other lower level front-office employees of the clubs they sweat for.
Do you think Roy Keane, Donovan, David B worth DP $$ in LA?
*Robbie Keane
Biff, there is nothing absurd or unfair about the DP system. It's a brilliant idea, actually. Big names draw big crowds (in theory). Every team is allowed the same number of DPs, so there is nothing unfair about it. Whether or a not a club decides to utilize its allotment has nothing to do with fairness.
Also, for every "over-the-hill" DP, as you put it, there is a relatively young DP on another team. Look at Fredy Montero, Alvaro Fernandez, Diego Chara, Freddy Adu, and others. There are really only a handful of dudes in their mid-upper 30s (Becks, Di Vaio, Henry, Marquez). And if you don't think Becks, Henry and Di Vaio earn their paychecks, you're just cynical.
The key words in your post, Gnarls, are "in theory." In other words, a theory is not a fact until it has been scientifically proven.
Probably five years ago some of the over-the-hill DPs ending the careers with a big paycheck in MLS actually attracted paying customers to games. In other words, more people in the stands with DPs than without DPs. My theory is, that this is no longer the case. I contend that a New York Bulls would a crowd as big or bigger without Henry or A-h**e Rafa Marquez relaxing on the field during games and turning up their noses at their teammates. And I think the same could be said for other teams. Furthermore, I theorize the ill-will created in clubhouses between highly-paid DPs and the low-paid grunts is not good for the game.
What I would like to see, is a major study done by experts, either university professor eggheads or by one of the top consulting firms. Actually study the DP concept and outline pros and cons. For example, when DPs are inured and not playing, does that affect attendance levels. I would love to see all DPs given a month's vacation, say the month of June, and see what happens to attendance. I am almost certain that non DPs would fill the void. Right now, the only way to really defend keeping the DP rule is to say: But we've always done that way.
Great to beat NY in such an exciting fashion. The red to Hamid was probably deserved and frankly I think Willis is just as good of an option moving forward. That'st he second time Willis has come in after a Hamid red card and blocked a PK this season. Pretty remarkable.
Assuming Najar doesn't get suspended, he could move back up to midfield, because Russel looked awesome last night. I didn't see many mistakes and he moved up well and of course had that killer pass to DeLeon to win the game.
Then there's also the whole DeRo returning thing? We'll see.
We struggled against Houston at the opening of their new stadium, but both teams are different now. Should be a fun (if not overly defensive) series.
ed houston
i hate to say this but it seems you all play better without DeRo, so it will be interesting to see what happens.
Well, the team has been winning, but they certainly haven't looked that good without him. All the games have been sloppy offensive displays that relied on the defense/keeper to bail them out. DeRo would absolutely provide an offensive spark, not to mention a huge morale boost. He's also the team's leader. You see lots of these young guys (Hamid, Najar) making emotional mistakes, and having a respected guy like DeRo on the field could prevent that.
ed houston
good point… i agree on russel too, he seemed hungry and ready, i guess cause he has not played in a while.
DeLeon will surely be on Klinsmanns radar for 2013 now. This guy is only going to get better and better.
How has nobody mentioned Bil Hamid's EPIC meltdown? Wow. I thought he was going to shank the sideline official.
And then tweeting about it just seconds after he got into the locker room? The fine for that entire act will be legen–wait for it–dary.
"will be legen–wait for it–dary."
It's Barney from How I Met Your Mother.
Bill is awesome. I like his passion.
FYI He dove for the ball and Cooper ran onto him tripping himself. What is a keeper to do, watch the ball go by him or dive for it? I like Bill and his antics. Glad he is on D.C. It is also for fortunate to have cool as a cucumber Jo Willie to back him up. Best of both world really.
Go D.C.
Henry should have taken the PK. It's a moment that needed class.
Saying that,Henry, again, didn't use his head by encroaching. Marquez getting red is just another chapter. Two DPs, two mental breakdowns that cost us the game. That's a tough way to go out.
Wes Martino
Hamid responds like a 9 year old when he is called for the foul and gets the red. He actually falls to the ground and it looks like he is going to start crying. Then goes on this crazy tantrum. Dude.. it was a clear foul. Grow up and act like a man. You will never be a great keeper. You are a head case. National team goalkeepers are not head cases. Shut your mouth and play.
Wes Martino
The best part is Hamid is probably on this site right now reading these responses because he is such a head case he wants to know what people are saying about him. Ha. Got you dude. I am in your dome right now.
Looks like Hamid is on steroids.. did you see him kick the wall when he was in the tunnel leaving the pitch?
Well, if he is: Bill, your potential is limitless, but please try and keep your cool! You can make all the highlight reel saves you want, but in the end what teams (including the USMNT) need are consistent keepers with great poise and leadership.
Older & Wiser
The reason Marquez consistently gets sh$t on is because for the entire time he has been with RBNY he's been mailing it in. No heart, no effort, no class, no durability and not much of a chance to display any skills he might have given he spends half of any given season on the bench. I'll take Brandon Barklage over him any day of the week.
Massive fail for all RB DPs last night. If you watch the replay of Cooper's first PK take, Henry, Cahill and Dax were all encroaching. Toss in Marquez' red and you have universal DP meltdown.
You just can't make mental mistakes of that magnitude and expect to win games, much less championships.
And what's with Cooper taking the PK and Roy MIller taking the free kick? Hans Backe's parting gift to RBNY?
Geiger got the red on Hamid correct and Hamid, as mentioned, behaved like a child.
The Squad
Wow Marquez get a lot of hate……
This player delivers what he's payed for when on the pitch (of course, when on the pitch)
The team needs a system. Point blank.
What are the New York Red Bulls??
A defense first team that utilizes its solid goalkeeping and talent up top to execute in the 1-0, 2-1 contests??
A team that keeps the ball on the ground and funnels possession through its solid core of possession-oriented MFs
A team thats feeds off the emotional energy of players like Mccarty and Henry?
A playoff tested squad that utilizes the counter along with solid wing play??

Play gameVisit TacticalRPG's game page
Standard menu system and turn sequencing stuff is all there which is nice, but I'd suggest considering the addition of mouse controls if you plan to have this on PCs. The menus worked for stuff like SNES and PSP where the main inclination is to use a dpad, but I feel the mouse should be taken advantage of to skip a lot of these menus and sub menus.
Personally not a fan of fantastical creatures, like mushrooms and manti, being playable units. Movement time feels way too slow for me. There were times where the camera wouldn't home in on the unit in question for direction choice
Pretty dang good engine for an SRPG. I see scenes in the screenshots clearly inspired by Tactics Ogre and the like, which is exciting for me. Definitely interested to see more from this, though I'm not sure if this is planned to be just an engine, or a full release game at some point. Hopefully the latter.
See you in DDAY10
- I think you need a better explanation of what you're doing right when you start the game (when you're placing units) - I thought the game hadn't loaded the textures/models correctly when it was just showing black and a few tiles, and then I tried soloing the fight with just 1 dude
- When your turn ends you need to select a facing direction... is that so you can avoid being attacked from behind? Just seems a bit weird as I wasn't sure what it was doing
- The action is a bit slow - if possible I'd speed up almost all animations x2
- I like the cel shading aesthetic, although I think the grass looks a bit out of place - I think a cleaner, more solid colour look would be better
- Does Chivalry do anything?
- Overall it looks like you've got a solid base for the SRPG mechanics to work from, mostly just needs a lot of polish and user friendliness improvements
- Wow did you make your own engine?

She looks like Ann Coulter in some of those. Ick.ReplyDeleteReplies
Now that's just cruel.Delete
Every gay friend I have LOVES Celine. Except for one -- he used to do her make-up for her Vegas show. He hates her -- says she smells like garlic and old man.ReplyDelete
So many faces, so many bad dreams.
Ahahaha! Those are hilarious! The longer you watch, the funnier they get. :DReplyDelete
I have a co-worker who is nuts about her. She's all upset because she's going to Vegas soon and apparently Celine is taking a hiatus during the time she's there and she won't get to see her show. This girl is only 21, seems kinda young to be a Celine groupie.ReplyDelete

Crunchy and crispy, with a touch of salt, potato chips are a wonderful addition to a barbecue and a perfect snack for an afternoon. Making potato chips at home can be a great experience and allows for the freshest chips possible. Finding the perfect potato is about more than just the size, you have to take into account the type and quality of the potato as well.
The Perfect Potato
Potato chips are best made from the Solanum tuberosum species. In the grocery store, they are known as baking potatoes. These potatoes are largest and make the largest sliced potato chips.
Pick potatoes that are fresh from the grocery store, not just ones that are sitting in your pantry. The older a potato is, the more fructose and glucose buildup it has, which causes the chips to be be brown when they are cooked. Pick potatoes that are not sprouting, as these parts of the potato are not good for making into potato chips. When the potato is old enough to be sprouting, the internal starches in the potato are changing and that means that the potato chips will have an altered taste.
After the potatoes are evenly sliced, make sure the the potatoes are soaked thoroughly. This washes away much of the starches and helps increase the crispiness when frying the potato chips.
Tools For Making Potato Chips
Potato chips are known for their thin and crunchy shape, and this can be hard to do by hand. Purchasing a mandolin at your local kitchen supply store can save time in the kitchen. Another option for slicing the potatoes is to use a food processor with the slicing attachment. These might be thicker chips, but they will all be uniform as well.
When rinsing and soaking the potatoes, use a ceramic or plastic bowl. Using a metal bowl may cause a slightly metallic taste to form in the water and the potatoes.
Depending on the method being used in your potato chip recipe, you'll either need a deep fat fryer or an oven baking sheet. For the fryer, make sure to use one that has a deep well. This will allow more room for any bubbles to break before coming out of the top of the fryer and spraying either you or the kitchen. For the baking sheet, a nonstick or well-coated type is preferred. This will help prevent any chips from sticking to the pan after baking.
Choosing the Right Potato Chip Recipe
Potato chips can either be fried with a deep fat fryer or baked on a sheet in the oven. Both of these techniques have different results. The chips from the fryer are going to be more generously coated with oil because they were submerged in it but will also be cooked at a higher speed than those in the oven. Oven chips will have less oil on them because it has the ability to roll off of the chip and onto the cooking sheet instead. However, oven chips may take a longer time to be finished.
Spices for Different Potatoes
The baking potato is the most common potato to be used for making potato chips, but other potatoes may be used as well. Each one will create a different type of flavor, and you may want to augment that flavor with spices.
Russet potatoes are usually flavored with butter and salt. Yukon Gold potatoes have a milder flavor and benefit from seasonings that have a little more vigor, such as cumin, paprika or mustard. Fingerling potatoes tend to have a more buttery and creamy texture to begin with, so adding spices that complement butter, such as garlic or onion powder, is a good idea. Red potatoes tend to have a much sweeter taste than other potatoes; adding a milder flavor, such as basil or oregano, will keep the potato chip from becoming overpowering.

BeschreibungHuletts Landing is located on the east shore of Lake George, a lake world renowned for its crystal clear water and views of the majestic Adirondack Mountains. Named after the original owners of the property, the Huletts, the area began humbly. It was not until Philander Hulett established the first post office and steamship landing that tourism in the area began to flourish. The area grew into a resort destination with the establishment of the original Huletts Hotel, which burned down and resulted in a sensational arson trial in 1917. A second, newer hotel was built, and the area thrived. Residents and tourists alike still travel from all areas of the country to spend vacations at Huletts Landing, basking in its mix of unparalleled charm and natural beauty.

As we have described, network operators and cloud providers are looking at using NFV software and industry-standard hardware to deploy networking applications as VNFs rather than using integrated, proprietary hardware and software systems. This means that just about any application can be deployed with NFV software on top of a standard hardware platform.
This makes the possibilities somewhat endless, and the market for network functions –most of which can conceivably be migrated to software – quite large. It is certainly billions of dollars, if you take a look at traditional network applications such as firewalls, load balancing VPNs, application delivery, mobile evolved packet core (EPC), WAN connectivity, many types of security applications, and IP routing – all of which could be moved (and are being moved) into a VNF model.
VNFs vs. Purpose-built Hardware
The standard question that a network operator might ask about VNFs vs. traditional hardware-based functions is "does it scale" and "is it carrier-class." The proprietary hardware industry has been formed for many decades and many companies have spent years optimizing their gear, including using custom chipsets, to boost performance. In addition, existing OSS and BSS systems are geared towards physical systems, with the use of VNFs, automation and orchestration play a significantly bigger role with managing the entire lifecycle of VNFs, including creating new instances as and when performance demands it.
Organizations looking at VNFs will have to make careful evaluations about whether or not the VNF measures up to the performance and stability of the function they are targeting as it runs on a purpose-built box. In early POCs, we've heard from end-users that some VNFs are poorly-executed as simple ports from physical boxes to a virtualized instance with capacity, throughput and stability issues. As well, the many variations of architectures to extract maximal performance from the underlying NFV-I, ranging from PCI pass-through, SR-IOV (single root I/O virtualization on PCI buses), DPDK (Intel's Data Plane Development Kit), specialized off-loading to NICs (network interface cards) and other acceleration techniques create a lot more complexity than most organizations are willing to sign up for. We expect these teething pains to eventually be overcome. In the meantime, organizations should also examine the feature-set and performance characteristics of VNFs and how they compare with their physical counterparts.
Key Criteria in Selecting NFV components and solutions we described in detail in 2016 Mega NFV Report Pt. 1: MANO and NFVI.

|This is a discussion on how to play AK in a tournament? within the online poker forums, in the Tournament Poker section; as should play AK as an all-in before almost always lose to a medium pair
How u play a certain hand depends on lot of factors especially position , blinds & antes , type of table & players you are playing against , any action that is been generated before u etc
as you have not given any specifics cant detail much
but as in general With AK you should always be aggressive
re: Poker & how to play AK in a tournament?
Yes, according to my long observation there are many ways to play AK.
But the worst way to play AK Push this hand from early and middle position, since no contact with the board, AK lose even weak hands that hit the board, so it is best to play the hand post flop. Although if I have a stack of less than 5 M, and it is not two people before ITM, it is easy for me to push. In general, I very carefully play with AK in the early stages, and more agressiv in the middle and late.
As already said in this thread you want to play it agressively, i wouldnt suggest just throwing it away unless there are a few people in the pot and you know it will turn into a multiway pot, your AK is only strong in HU play, as the more ppl in the pot the more likely they will hit something stronger.
So we raise, depending on where on the table you are depends on the raise size, 2 ways to see it is......
1... Early, keep pot small, so that you can get away cheaply if you miss the flop (only ever suggested to players that are afraid to play strong hands oop)
2... EP you raise larger then you would from late position to minimize the chance of a multiway pot... (downside is, if you raise bigger your cbet is larger and by the time you get to the turn you could be in trouble)
I would always strongly recommend 2 over 1, because as said theres nothing worse then playing AK oop, other then playing AK oop in a multiway situation,
if played correctly you should be HU, and if they have a middle pair then so be it, decide whether you think you can get your opponent away from his hand dependant on who he is and if he is passive.
One final note is if you are 15bb or less, no matter what position you are in, just get it in regardless of how close to the money you are....
you may be against 88 and lose, but its like a coin toss, and you need to make chips, if you start folding AK based on how close to the money you are, then your throwing away value of getting back in to the tournament
AK is great hand. You must not worry yourself answering all in, but you must consider your position in the tournament and your position on the table. Check out the opponent stack, a low one means that he is risking, so he could be with A + something else or even worse.
The power of AK is for sure weaker early on in a tourney and tends to bounce a lot of players. In late stages I make it clear that I am calling allin or shoving preflop as the hand tends to get weaker as the cards play out.
The postion of AK makes it interesting as well,early position makes it harder to play as opposed to the hijack and later position.
re: Poker & how to play AK in a tournament?
To play AK, will depend on the position you're normally one must be aggressive, but if there is already someone who has been aggressive, we must know if he plays good cards or if he is a buffoon trying to steal but, removing all this, the minimum bet I do, and depending on my stack is 3 times the Big Blind.
don't shove AK unless your short stacked. the only hands you beat are smaller connectors and air. if you jam and get called your only getting called by pocket pairs and then its a flip. Open 3-5x bb and re-evaluate after the flop then there is a chance the board cards can scare off small pockets if you do miss and c-bet.
AK is a very good hand Why?
1. It makes top pair top kicker
2. 3betting with it is super good as it has both top blockers: A and K, so it is much harder for you opponent to have AA or KK as there is only 50% chance they have them as you have 1 A in your hand (block 3 from 6 combinations of AA) and the same for kings. Where comparing to QQ you will see twice more AA and KK
3. perfecr for AI with <40bb
When you are less then 25 bb's or there is a re-shoving stack (<25 bb's) behind you or you believe reg behind you can squeeze, then it make a LOT of sense to just call and hope for action behind you.
I have seen one coment here like: 5x with AK. Never do that. 2.5x is the standard open size. When somebody 3x (maybe not during first two levels), it means that probably they are recreational players. GL
I don´t trust a lot in AK..!
Everything will depend on the position you are on the table and if another player has already raised or raised the bets, AK, for me, it is not a safe bet; If no player has bet, and there are only players who have paid the BB or no player has paid, I bet 5 or 6 times the BB, but, if already a player has increased the bet 5 or 6 times, then, I check my Stack, if it is at least 18 times the BB, I go all-in, otherwise, if I have less than 18 times the BB, I only pay and I see if the Flop helps me. That's just a way of playing the AK, I respect those who play it differently or trust a lot in these cards...
I have bad experiences with this hand, especially AKs. Yesterday, on the same live tour, I lost AKs twice. The first was again JJ (he got quads) and the second one to TT in multi-pot (triple). When I have it I'll raise as much as possible pre-flop to have a heads-up at last.
You're pretty much always raising it preflop. Unless you're super deep stacked (150bb+) you should be prepared to get all-in with it pre.
Postflop I think betting on the flop when you miss is acceptable. The turn and the river are more situational, you need a read on what type of holdings your opponent will continue with before you can 2 or 3-barrel.
If you connect then bet pretty much every street for value unless the board is incredibly wet.
I usually play AK with the intention of folding when it misses the flop. You can lose a large portion of your stack if you go chasing. There have been times where I've regretted even playing AK when I'm to the bubble. It loses a lot to the pre-flop 3 outers. When there's two other callers in the hand. Be wary that there could be another player with an ace, and the other player with a pair. You don't want to overvalue big slick that's for sure. It's a great hand when there are only a few players left at the table. Remember that your at a 54/46 disadvantage against any pair, so I won't shove with it unless I am at < 15 BBs.
Personally I think AK especially offsuit is often over played too aggressively. Example you 3x -5x the preflop bet and get a caller who hits a mid range card on the flop. Depending on position and what's left in your stack you are potentially pot committed and can't walk away from a push by that player now even if they have J10 off (like what happened to my AKsuit a few weeks ago) guy hits a 10 goes all in and caught a runner runner flush on the river. On the one hand I played aggressively and correctly (at least in my mind) and called his push properly but even if he hit trips I am hard pressed to fold that hand now. Don't know the answer trying to figure it out myself.
But my undocumented memory tells me that if I play these hands without as much aggression I get further in the tourneys. Position for me is (as stated above) really key but you have to know your table. If a freeroll, figure anything goes and its a toss up regardless late in the game same thing. As nobody has skin in the game.
Another example late in a tourney I have 7k in chips and there was another 7k chip player on the table playing aggressively so I figured I would push him out preflop. I had been playing conservatively all game and nobody at this table caught me on a bluff. I knew he would call almost any mid range bet so I pushed all in preflop. He called with A6 off and hit a 6 on the turn knocking me out. We are going to lose even when we play correctly. But tournament play is all about getting to the money so it becomes a bit of an art to pick and choose when to push against someone that will call with an A trash hand. And being able to recognize those players and trap them becomes the real challenge IMO
re: Poker & how to play AK in a tournament?
I use this hand to force my opponents to give up on the flop, and if he calls, I have a lot of space to play post-flop, or (in most cases) we pull the coin. Sometimes i just fold this hand on preflop. Depending on the situation
