The 1980s/90s image of estate agents as spivvy wide-boys bedecked in red braces over check shirts that clashed violently with pinstripe suits was perhaps a bit harsh, as it depicted a character type that frequently engaged in sharp practices of the Only Fools and Horses variety. Or perhaps it wasn't that unfair. Lawyers from regional law firm Shoosmiths point out that anti-money laundering regulation of residential and commercial estate agencies passed at the beginning of this month from the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) to HM Revenue & Customs. As a parting gift to the profession, the OFT whacked three agencies with fines, totalling nearly a quarter of a million pounds. Our commentators point out that the penalties 'represent a significant increase from those previously imposed for these types of breaches'. The expert lawyers forecast that money laundering fines will only increase now they are to be doled out by the taxman. 'Regulator thinking,' say the lawyers, 'is very much that only large deterrent fines will ensure that commercial organisations take their obligations seriously…' Click here for more information.
Regulation more broadly is also in the spotlight this week, as the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) – half of the twin peaks system that also involves the Prudential Regulation Authority – celebrated is first birthday by releasing an inaugural annual business plan. Assessed by commentators at law firm Nabarro, the document is replete with high-minded aspirations for 2014-15: to protect consumers, enhance market integrity and promote competition. The top dogs at the FCA say they will achieve those objectives by continuing to be 'judgment based, forward looking and pre-emptive'. Bonus points to anyone able to put meat on those platitudes. Our commentators give it a go, pointing out that in amongst the flannel the FCA has 'thrown down the gauntlet' to regulated businesses. Click here for more information.
This correspondent was in New York for hurricane Sandy in October 2012 and can faithfully report that it was bloody scary. A bid to attend a 'storm party' on the Upper West Side was quickly aborted, despite being no more than a five-block walk away. Metal posts hurling down Broadway as though launched by some gigantic, malevolent javelin thrower was all it took to call the event off. Sadly, the storm was far more devastating for other New Yorkers, and insurers have been doing what many feel they do best: failing to cough up. Lawyers at Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman explain that property insurers have repeatedly denied coverage for business owners in lower Manhattan, arguing that electricity provider ConEd intentionally cut off power to its networks and that flooding damaged ConEd's facilities. Now a recent court ruling might provide hard-pressed businesses with some relief, as it found in part that the insurer did not demonstrate that service interruption during ConEd's post-restoration period was excluded by its policy.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - January 25, 1995, New Braunfels, Texas Wednesday, Jan 25, 1995 ■ Herald-Zeitung ■ 5 A Recycling statements clarified In the Herald's Tuesday paper about Monday night's city council meeting, I feel the context of dur petition on the recycling election effort implied that I was against recycling itself. I want to make it clear that the petition was presented to the council because we arc not pleased with this particular contract and above all, we felt we were denied the democratic process of voting on it. We arc not against recycling. We realize our city council has many decisions to make and they spend our tax dollars on various needs all the time. We arc, however, committed to the belief that the Nov. elections proved people want less big government from the federal, state and local levels. We want government to be responsible and to stop the unfunded mandates. Because this recycling contract is new and costly, we felt council should have allowed us to vote before mandating that every individual resident be charged whether they participate or not. They should have approved the committee's findings and then allowed the citizens to vote. There arc many people that have different reasons for not supporting this contract. Many pf us think it is environmentally irresponsible not to contain the recyclable garbage to keep it from blowing everywhere. After all, we recycle to help the environment don't we? We need lids. There are many senior citizens on fixed incomes and other disadvantaged families that really can't afford the $1.85- especially since garbage rates just increased. It seems that it would be much more fair and equitable to have elected, rather than mandatory, participation. At least we have a dialogue now and we've made our feelings known. We hope our city council has learned that no matter how laudable a new program or idea may be, we the citizens want the right to vote. Please stop the mandates. Tricia Cordell Thanks for recycling program Dear Editor, Thank you to the City of New Braunfels for bringing us curbside recycling. After years of sorting and holding recyclables until our family could make trips to various drop-offs, this is heaven. We are proud of living rn a community with a commitment to the future. Now a tip to others—when purchasing products, look for labels stating that a percentage of the product or package comes from post-consumer waste. This makes the circle of recycling complete. I hank you. Jane Langley Give recycling a chance Dear Editor, Let s not scrap the recycling program before we've even given it a fair chance! I was dismayed to read the front page headline Sunday (Complaints I ucl t ill for Recycling Election) for I w as proud that New' Braunfels tin.illy arranged for curbside recycling I he complaints I have heard about the program certainly do not scent serious cm ugh to warrant mort-g mig our planet's future. I would like to think that some kind of arrangement could be worked out with BEI for pro-viding lids for the recycling bins, as hav ing to predict the weather by 7 a m. is indeed tricky. However, as far as rinsing out a mayonnaise jar, hasn't the man ever heard of a sponge? Or soaking ' True, we're going to have to expend a little more energy than it takes to toss trash in garbage cans without a second thought, but I'd like to think that we're all foresighted enough to make the extra effort. Actually, when you consider that BFI doesn't require us to remove the labels, crush cans, or to separate the items, a little rinsing seems easy enough to do. This is an issue where money cannot be the absolute bottom line. We must think of the message we are giving our children and what we are saying to people and businesses from other communities. We want them to know that we're not just concerned about the here and now, but we're doing something positive about the future! Sincerely, Laura Schulte Recycling deserves support Dear Editor, It disturbs mc greatly that so many complaints and negative reactions about recycling have surfaced, lf it is just blowing off steam to release pressure, it is a good thing. But if it develops into a vigorous opposition to the recycling program, there is cause for alarm. Recycling is the effort to deal constructively with a shameful aspect of our culture—our waste material. It is a major economic and cultural problem. Whereas in parts of Europe ALL waste is converted (salvaged) for useful purposes, we pile it up or bury it, producing hazards of contamination. So the effort to recycle our waste should receive every support and goodwill. Is this a priority in the well-being of our city and community? You'd better believe it! Let's forget our personal feelings about some of the imperfections at the beginning of the program. Here is a wonderful opportunity to make us feel that we arc a part of something bigger and more important than we as individuals. With a little good-will we can help to iron out some of the wrinkles...like putting a brick on the paper on a windy day and putting the paper in a plastic bag on a rainy day. A mayonnaise jar can be cleaned in less than a minute with a cup or two of water at 200° F. All that is needed is the attitude: "I want to help a worthy cause." Just plain good-will. lf a recall election of the program would win, it still would not prove that the "vox populi" is right. It would, however, prove that the people so voting were expressing their feeling of self-concern as more important than the well-being of the community. Let's have a responsibility to something that is bigger than ourselves! Elmer H. Gumper Response to recycling critics Dear Editor, There have recently been some negative Letters to the Editor about the recycling program that I feel the need to respond to. I, for one. was excited about the program finally happening here! I would trust that Ms. Curtis and Mrs. Ken-nady checked into the program before presenting it for approval and that the company will be recycling the items rather than "dumping" them elsewhere. As far as the unsightly appearance — I think it is a plus for the community to finally do something as a team. The first pick-up day was well received with blue containers all up and down the streets. It looked like a COMMUNITY EFFORT. (I guess most of you remember that...) I always felt guilty about everything we put into our garbage cans and dumped at the landfill. Now I have a feeling of pride when I can do something worthwhile to protect the environment. Where else can you get that for $1.85 a month? Vivian Reagan Stand behind recycling Dear Sir, I read with amazement, and some disgust, your article concerning the flap over recycling. As a positive from the article, I am looking forward to meeting Susan Curtis, Chairwoman of the Recycling Advisory Committee. She sounds like she has it all together. The people of New Braunfels (and Comal County) arc going to have to face reality concerning landfill space. People are complaining about the fuel costs for recycling trucks, the $1.85 monthly charge, and the water it takes to wash out a mayonnaise jar (?). What will they say when our landfill is prematurely filled and we have to pay the costs to haul trash 30, 50, maybe even IOO miles to a landfill? Landfill space is at a premium and costs arc mushrooming because of governmental regulations (that is, when an area can be found that is suitable for a landfill...people don't want landfills in "their" area). So New Braunfels, we'd better do w hat we can to conserve our present landfill. Let's give recycling a chance. By the way, City Council, if you thought recycling would be beneficial for New Braunfels when you passed the ordinance, how about standing behind it now? Norman E. Stephens No recycling election needed Dear Editor, This letter is in response to the article in the paper concerning Mary Scrold's effort to have the City Council call for a vote to stop curbside recycling in New Braunfels. We are strongly opposed to this, for several reasons. First of all, the issue of curbside recycling has been debated in the City Council meetings, newspaper, and on the radio for almost a year. Who could not have known that it was coming. of what it would involve, and how much it would cost? In fact, volunteers were requested from the public, to be on the committee that studied the feasibility of recycling in New Braunfels. Where were all of the complainers then? Ignorance of the issue is not a valid excuse Secondly, wasn't the motion to start recycling passed unanimously by the City Council? Why is an election about it being requested now? What about all of the money already spent on the program? The fact that 57% of the households in our city participated in the first week of recycling shows that a majority of our citizens already have shown their support for the program. Why must taxpayer money be spent on an election to confirm the community's support of recycling? lf some citizens find washing out a mayonnaise jar every other month or so too difficult, just throw the jar away arni recycle your newspapers only.

As for the issue of soggy newspapers, store them in your garage until a dry day; anchor them with a jar if it is windy. Arc these things really valid concerns or just excuses for not doing something that will benefit our city for generations to come? A blue bin on the curb isn't unsightly—rather, it shows a family who cares. The minimal charge for curbside recycling is nothing compared to the cost of a citywide election, or the cost of scrapping the entire program, lf you don't want to put your recyclables out, at least consider the monthly expense and investment in your children's and grandchildren's futures. We urge all New Braunfels residents who support curbside recycling to write a note to, or to call their city council representative showing their support. If it is true that the squeaky wheel gets the grease, let's squeak loudly and clearly to save money on a needless election. Citizens who care should win, not a few complainers. Sincerely, John M. Tieman, M.D., Laurie Tieman, Sherryl and Kent Gerke, Krista Gerke, Kent Toppert, Gaye Toppert, Mike Lindt, Coetta Lindt, Caille Jacks, Randal Jacks, M.D., Patricia Albrecht, Warren Albrecht, M.D. Recycling worth the effort Dear Editor, We know we speak for thousands of individuals who. like us, were so happy to sec those blue and white bins arrive which indicated that we in New Braunfels were finally joining the rest of the progressive cities in America and most all of the industrialized nations by having a serious program for recycling. Hallelujah and thank you very much! We are definitely on the right track. Our grandparents were the premier recyclers—everything was reused because they strongly believed in the axiom "Waste not, want not." It is a powerful concept; it will have positive ramifications for our world in a time we will not sec—but our children and our grandchildren will benefit. Let's work out the "bugs" in this new program and move on to the next challenge—there's lots to do! All those who feel similarly—please call your City Councilperson or City Hall at 608-2100 and help them to balance the barrage from complainers who are not looking at the "big picture." Your at-large representatives: Chris Bowers, 625-3113; Jan Kennady, 625-6739 (h); Tim Walker, 625-5959 (h). District I : Ambrosio Benitez, 625-8350/606-8011 (h).

Mary and Bill Hitch Recycling is not cost effective Dear Editor, Again the Wall Street Journal bongs out the truth about curbside recycling. In the Thursday. Jan. 19, 1995 paper, the WSJ headlines a story on this subject: "Waste of a Sort, Curbside Recycling Comforts the Soul, But Benefits arc Scant. Myths Help Fuel Programs That Turn Out to Cost More Than They Deliver." Quoting further, "At least by any practical, short-term measure, curbside recycling does not pay. It costs residents and local governments hundreds of millions of dollars more than can be recouped by selling the sorted trash." Why doesn't our city investigate before committing to a non-profit venture? Many of us do not wish to pay an additional $ 1.85 for the accomplishment of an unprofitable task. Our city officials should work to reduce the citizens' costs, not increase them. I spent some time at the local library, and found that curbside recycling has been studied many times. It simply doesn't pay! Why should we be forced to pay for an unprofitable business? The citizen should have a voice in this matter. As it now stands, we don't have to recycle, but we have to pay. It* is decidedly unfair. From Forbes Magazine ("No One Wants to Shoot Snow White"): Public support for curbside recycling is strong, "despite the practice being overwhelmingly cost-ineffective." Let those that want to recycle, do so; however, let those that know it is ineffective be exempt from paying for a useless service. It is highly recommended that City Council restudy curi> sidc recycling, and ponder their rights to impose additional costs on their citizens. I Yours truty, Loyd W.

NEW USERS: Please create a profile to register for events, enter awards, and much more.
Three new shows debuted on Wednesday night — ABC's Designated Survivor and Speechless and Fox's Lethal Weapon — and of the three, Designated Survivor opened to the best numbers.
The drama, starring Kiefer Sutherland as the only surviving member of the U.S. Cabinet after a terrorist attack hits the U.S. Capitol during a State of the Union speech, scored a 2.3 rating among adults 18-49 and 10 million total viewers, according to Nielsen's overnight ratings. That's a solid start for the 10 p.m. drama, although it falls short of NBC's Tuesday night premiere of This Is Us, which so far it fall TV's highest-rated premiere with a 2.8 in the demo and 10 million total viewers.
RELATED: NBC's 'This Is Us' Lives Up to Promise of Its Trailer
ABC also premiered Speechless, a sitcom starring Minnie Driver, at 8: 30 p.m. following the night's lead-off show, The Goldbergs. Speechless premiered to a 2.0 in the demo and 7.3 million viewers, in line with how the rest of the network's 8 to 10 p.m. sitcoms did. At 8 p.m., The Goldbergs returned with a similar 2.0 in the demo and 6.8 million viewers. At 9 p.m., Modern Family turned in a 2.6, down 19% from last year, and 8.2 million viewers, down 14%. Like CBS' The Big Bang Theory, this-once potent broadcast hit is finally showing its age as it heads into season 8.
RELATED: CBS' 'Kevin Can Wait,' NBC's 'The Good Place' Both Start in Good Places
Over on Fox, movie reboot Lethal Weapon led into Empire, giving Fox the win after two low rated nights. Lethal Weapon premiered to a 2.2 in the demo and 7.8 million viewers, down 8% in the demo but up 4% in total viewers from last season's premiere of Rosewood, starring Morris Chestnut.
RELATED: 3D Car Crashes Through Times Square High-Rise in 'Lethal Weapon' Installation
Broadcast TV's biggest hit, Empire, returned for season 3 with a 4.1 in the demo and 10.8 million total viewers. That was down 39% from last year's fall premiere, when the show was coming off its supernova first season, but about even with its spring finale. When live-plus-seven numbers are taken into consideration, Empire last season averaged a 6.4 among adults 18-49 and 17.7 million viewers.

CBS aired reality standbys Survivor and Big Brother, wrapping up its summer season before moving to CBS All Access for a fall edition. Survivor fell 8% from last fall's premiere to a 2.3 in the demo and 3% in total viewers to 9.4 million, while Big Brother closed out its season with a 2.1 in the demo and 6.3 million viewers.
After winning the new season's first two nights on the strength of The Voice and strong debut of This Is Us, NBC came in fourth on Wednesday night.
The season premiere of Blindspot, one of last season's highest-rated premieres, debuted in its new 8 p.m. time slot at a 1.3 among adults 18-49 and 6 million viewers, even in the demo with its spring finale. Law & Order: SVU at 9 p.m. averaged a 1.8 in the demo and 7.7 million viewers, and Chicago PD at 10 p.m. hit a 1.6 in adults 18-49 and 6.7 million.

Blue velvetMature
As I sat hunkered in my chair, as I do every night I went back to the day she moved in. It was a spring day May 1st to be exact, that was the day the moving truck was perched on the curb outside my window. It was a Saturday and so I was off work and usually tried to sleep in before my morning jog. I remember glancing over at the clock and the red laminated numbers flashed 6:00 am when I heard the stomping.
I made my way to the window to investigate and discovered the moving truck. There were two men unloading boxes with a dolly and disappeared into the building. No more then two minutes later I heard voices outside my door. The apartment door across the hall was propped open as the movers entered with the boxes.
From inside I heard a fragile voice directing the movers where to unload the boxes. This caught my interest, a new neighbor was always a mysterious inquiry. Wondering where they lived before, what they looked like, and if they were single. I still hadn't seen who this fragile voice belonged to yet. The movers continued this routine for a few more hours until the truck was empty. I heard it pull off down the street into the city.
I spied out my peep hole again hoping to catch a glance and the her door opened. There in the doorway stood heaven on earth, at first I felt embarrassed watching her. Then I realized she couldn't see me behind the thick door. She had on cut off blue jeans revealing her tan toned legs and she wore flip flops. She had on a sleeveless floral blouse that tied at her waist, revealing just enough skin to get your imagination going. She was dragging some empty boxes into the hallway. she was leaning forward and I could see down her blouse, I looked away shyly. Then immediately looked again, the round firm shape of her breasts were teasing me not to look. I swallowed the drool forming in the corners of my mouth as my penis became erect. No women has ever had this effect on me from so far away.
I was caught up in a fantasy when she stood up, and through the peephole I say those blue eyes for the first time. The were smooth like blue velvet, and this excited me even more. I watched as she bit her soft glossy lips while dragging more boxes into the hall. I wanted to go out and introduce myself, but with the current bulge in my shorts I thought it inappropriate.
Eventually she gathered up all the boxes and disappeared down the hall, and I watched her from behind. Her hips switched back and forth and her walk was graceful.
I waited at the peephole for her return, but since she locked her door I assumed she wasn't coming right back. So after I calmed my manhood down I changed into my sweats for my jog as it was already 10:00 am. As I listened to the tunes jam in my ears I revisited the image of her standing in the doorway. She was like an angel and I wanted to be her guardian. I quickly changed my thought remembering my earlier response to her. After my jog I headed back up to my apartment and showered.
I many times returned to the peephole to see if she had returned with every little noise I heard. It must have been later that evening I finally heard her return and with bags. Probably groceries or something I wasn't quite sure. She didn't turn around this time just dispersed into her apartment.
That night as I lay in bed I touched myself at the thought of her, I visioned her nude. I found pleasure in these images. After much masturbation I drifted off to sleep and into a sweet wet dream.
There were candles and rose petals layered the floor. She was sitting on my bed with sheer white lingerie kissing her body. On her feet were tall silver heels, the kind made for the bedroom only.
She signaled with her finger for me to join her. I sat next to her and she ran her hands over my chest.
They were so soft that send shivers down my spine and I was immediately stiff. Her supple lips kissed the back of my neck like silk. She whispered in my ear, "Do you want me?"
My breath got heavy as I turned around and laid her on her back. I lifted up her lace lingerie and began kissing her stomach. She ran her fingers through my hair as I reached her perfect breasts. Then.......
Ring! Ring! Ring! the damn phoned pulled me right out of my dream. It was my boss asking if I could make in for a few hours today. We had a big project and we were behind. The deadline was approaching and this was a big contract.
In my line of work we purchase failing properties and flip them around to make a prophet. Yes one of those men you see in a suite and carrying a brief case.
I accept his request and hung up the phone as I got out of bed. Since it was a Sunday business attire was not required so I threw some jeans and T-shirt. I glanced at her door as I passed trying to visualize her sleeping in her bed.
That was the weekend that changed my whole outlook on life.

Arizona's forests are in poor health. They're overgrown, and without action, catastrophic fires are almost a certainty — putting the state's physical beauty, economic vitality and water supplies at risk.
That's why a team made up of representatives from Salt River Project, the U.S. Forest Service, the Ecological Restoration Institute at Northern Arizona University, The Nature Conservancy and the University of Arizona has been working for the past year to find solutions.
This group is bringing together wide-ranging public, private and nonprofit interests with a stake in forest health and seeking innovative funding opportunities to fix the problem. And the team is starting to develop momentum, most recently during a May workshop in Tempe hosted by SRP featuring a capacity crowd of those involved or interested in regional forest health issues.
"Being here today gives me a lot of optimism," said Cal Joyner, Southwest District regional forester for the U.S. Forest Service, during the workshop's keynote address. "Arizona is one of the leaders in the West in addressing these issues."
SRP, Joyner added, deserved a lot of credit for helping to move that work forward. To understand why SRP is so involved, it's first important to understand why forest health matters to greater Phoenix as a whole.
Forests in northern Arizona are the lifeblood of SRP's water supply. The runoff from rain and snow that fall on those forests flows downstream, filling reservoirs on the Salt and Verde rivers.
When those forests are healthy, winter snowpack provides a reliable water source for the ecosystem and for downstream communities, including the East Valley. Healthy forests also filter runoff so that water flowing into reservoirs is clean and relatively free of sediment.
Scorched forests do the opposite. Runoff from fire-scarred areas not only drains into SRP's reservoirs, it also brings ash and debris. This waste settles at the base of the dams, reducing reservoir capacity and affecting water quality.
Since 2002, more than a quarter of SRP's watershed has been burned by megafires such as the Rodeo-Chediski and Wallow fires.
The solution is to remove the excess small-diameter trees and brush that overcrowd modern forests — thereby reducing the fuel load and decreasing the possibility of "crown fires" that are so catastrophic to Arizona's forests. Historically, small fires were a vital and natural part of the ecosystem in Arizona's forests, removing excess vegetation and improving soil conditions. However, the overgrowth of small-diameter trees now acts as ladders for fire-enabling flames to reach the top of older trees, and can spread quickly, destroying entire forest landscapes.
"We all have a stake at improving the condition of our forests," said Rebecca Davidson, a senior analyst in SRP's Water Rights & Contracts group. "And whatever the reason — whether to create climate resiliency, to ensure opportunities for recreation, to improve hydrologic function and protect water resources, or to address wildland urban interface within local communities — it is important that we work collaboratively to develop partnerships and find solutions."
The first efforts to address the issue on a widespread scale began with the signing of a 2011 agreement that launched the Four Forest Restoration Initiative — a U.S. Forest Service-endorsed plan to thin 50,000 acres of forest annually for 20 years across the Tonto, Coconino, Apache-Sitgreaves and Kaibab national forests.
But thinning work has been slow to take root, and the problem isn't contained to those four national forests. Private, state, tribal and Bureau of Land Management lands are also affected.
To seek speedier and more widespread solutions, SRP joined forces with other stakeholders to put together a team with a wide range of experience and connections in forest health issues. The group has convened weekly for more than a year to develop a strategy to get all parties with an interest in forest health working together. Their efforts culminated at the recent workshop attended by 116 influential individuals, ranging from key policy writers in Congress and the Arizona Legislature, to private companies involved in thinning, to environmental and university leaders dedicated to forest health.
At the workshop, attendees discussed the full scope of the problem: The current pace and scale of forest and woodland restoration in Arizona is insufficient to prevent the large and severe fires we are experiencing today. And although contracts have been issued by the Forest Service to begin clearing in limited locations, they don't necessarily exist in places where the infrastructure actually exits — think logging equipment and mills. This makes it difficult for forest industry companies to find economically viable mechanisms to enable access to those cleared areas.
The workshop also provided attendees the opportunity to discuss regional forest and woodland interests throughout the state. Regional breakout groups were tasked with identifying potential funding sources and willing leaders to accelerate partnership and funding efforts in northern Arizona, Prescott and southeastern Arizona.
Among the funding sources the groups agreed to explore: water user fees, bonding efforts, the sale of biomass fuels created from felled timber, tourism-based taxes and capital funding campaigns.
The core working group will continue to coordinate and track geographic regional efforts, and work toward the development of a public outreach campaign aimed at making Arizonans aware of the threat wildfires have on their water supply.
SRP has also begun to develop a partnership with the Forest Service and other key stakeholders to accelerate forest restoration around C.C. Cragin Reservoir, a reservoir on the Mogollon Rim surrounded by dense forest and an important municipal water supply for the town of Payson and other Rim communities.
"Each summer that passes without aggressive and active thinning of our forests only increases the probability of another wildfire and further damage to SRP's watersheds and our customers' and shareholders' water supply," said Bruce Hallin, SRP's director of Water Rights & Contracts.
SRP is planning a conference in October as a follow-up to the workshop, where progress will be reported and next-level goals set. Optimism among those involved is high.
"I really believe that 10 or 20 years from now, we will look back at the work we accomplished here and have something to be really proud of," said Charlie Ester, SRP's manager of Water Resource Operations Services. "We're creating a legacy for Arizona."
• Ed Baker is a senior online communications strategist at SRP.

Invited athlete Yoko Miyauchi (Team Kyocera) finished 2nd at the 2010 Toray Shanghai Half Marathon in Shanghai, China on Dec. 5, running 1:14:40 behind the Chinese winner, who clocked 1:13:20. Miyauchi wept openly after finishing, telling reporters, "Japanese women have won here the last two years, so I came here determined to continue the streak. I'm incredibly disappointed."
Miyauchi ran head to head with the Chinese runner for most of the race but fell behind at 17 km after her legs grew heavy. "I thought I'd be able to keep with her, but.....I guess I did a bad job of pacing it." Looking toward the future, Miyauchi said, "Life goes on even after a race like this. I'm going to use this run as a step up towards a marathon."
Translator's note: Yoko Miyauchi is the only Japanese woman to have broken 70 minutes for the half marathon this year.

|ICC to deploy secret agents to check bookies
Thursday, February 12 2004 15:45 Hrs (IST)
"The ICC has informed that in addition to the retired Pakistani Army Colonel Qaza Noor, a security official each from India and Australia would keep a close watch during the series," Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) spokesman Sami-ul Hasan said over phone from Karachi on Thursday.
Col Noor represents ICC's Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU) in Pakistan and Bangladesh while N S Virk is India's representative.
Deployment of three officials for one series indicates ICC's renewed fears that match-fixing might still be affecting the game. The ACU had written to the PCB in recent months that some Pakistan players might have underperformed in a couple of One-day tournaments in 2002.
Meanwhile, news daily 'The Nation' quoted PCB sources as saying although the ICC and Boards of both countries had taken adequate steps to check illegal betting, a complete ban was not practical.
The report said bookmakers had extended their network from Asia to Europe, Africa and USA.
"The much-awaited series will be the prime event for bookies to earn millions of dollars as they have formatted a strong international network ahead of Indo-Pak series," the sources said.
The two neighbours are resuming bilateral cricket ties after a 14-year hiatus and cricket fans across the world are eagerly awaiting the series.
"Despite a number of steps taken by ICC no one can remove match-fixing totally and still many bookies are involved in the million-dollar game," the sources were quoted as saying.
They said a few former Dubai-based Indian, Pakistani and African cricketers were working as the international link for the network.
"These cricketers also help in communicating rates of teams and players and informing the bookmakers about the form, fitness and abilities of players."

First darts commentary?
In November 1977, I went to Preston for the BBC to see England play Wales. Eric Bristow was a young, up-and-coming player then and I saw him sitting on his own in his maroon team blazer and asked him if he would do an interview. He was quite cagey and he didn't like the look of this photographer who was with me and, for some reason, was dressed up like Sherlock Holmes in a deerstalker. Eric said he'd only do an interview if John Lowe, the main man at the time, was doing one. I lied and said John was.
Last time you saw Jocky Wilson?
About four years ago. Jocky lives in a council flat in Scotland. You would never know he had been world champion but for the 3ft by 2ft giant photo taken of him back in 1982 that sits in his living room. At his peak Jocky could win tournaments when he was pissed, but he hasn't touched a drop since he walked out on the game 10 years ago. He's had a terrible run of luck since: he's been diagnosed with clinical depression, a stomach ulcer and diabetes.
First met Oasis?
At a Sky awards evening in 1996. On one side of the room were George Best and Rodney Marsh enjoying a few drinks, and on the other were me and Sixties pop singer Gerry Marsden. Then Noel Gallagher walked up to the bar. I looked at him and he looked at me and simultaneously we both said: 'I know you.' We put the world to rights that night. Well, we both had a lot to drink, anyway.
Last saw Elvis?
I'm looking at him right now. My wife and I are both fans and when we went to Memphis we bought one of those Elvis clocks you put on the mantelpiece. I'm asthmatic so, with my line of work, it's very important that I do regular breathing exercises. I have to lie on the floor and it's very relaxing to know that he's looking down on you.
First commentary on a nine-dart check-out?
The first televised one took place in 1984, but it was on ITV. I'll never forget it because I was sitting in a pub in Bradford and a kid came up to me and told me about it. I was so pissed off that I wasn't there for it that I told the boy to bugger off. Phil Taylor did it a few years later when I was commentating and I went ballistic, not least because several weeks earlier I had put a few quid on him at 25-1 to do it.
Last game at St James' Park?
Not recently, but then again there's not been much to cheer about of late. If you ask me, they should have pensioned off Alan Shearer 18 months ago. 'Bambi in roller boots' is what I call him ... [Doorbell rings, Sid disappears for a few minutes then returns]. Sorry, that was a Gypsy girl who always sells me some lucky heather. Where was I? Oh yes, Newcastle. If they were going to build a side around a player, then it should have been Craig Bellamy. I know he's difficult, but then so was Maradona. What you have to remember about watching Newcastle is that it's working-class theatre. Fans are more concerned with being entertained than they are with winning.
First visit to the House of Lords?
Five years ago. I went there to convince them that darts was a sport, that it should therefore be granted all the rights and subsidies that come with that. Can you believe that? Baton-twirling and tiddly-winks were considered sports, but not darts. We were successful. Our next step is to get it included in the Olympics in 2012.
Last vacuum-cleaner relay race you saw?
Oh God, that was a thing I did for Challenge TV. They had families racing against one another and not only did they have to push the vacuums but they did so with their feet in plastic buckets. That was followed by plant-pot tossing. They put me in a garden shed to commentate on that one. Perhaps the most bizarre job I ever had was providing commentary on a horse as we waited for it to crap. A guy I knew ran a cricket club and to raise money they split the pitch into about 600 plots, you bought a ticket for each plot, and then they sent the horse out. If he did his business on your plot, you won a prize. He took ages to do what he had to do and when he did the plot belonged to the mother-in-law of the guy who organised it. There was uproar.

Biosphere Origin and Evolution
pp 55-68
Comets, Carbonaceous Meteorites, and the Origin of the Biosphere
- Hoover R.B.Affiliated withAstrobiology Laboratory, NASA/NSSTC
* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
Evidence for indigenous microfossils in carbonaceous meteorites suggests that the paradigm of the endogenous origin of life on Earth should be reconsidered. It is now widely accepted that comets and carbonaceous meteorites played an important role in the delivery of water, organics and life-critical biogenic elements to the early Earth and facilitated the origin and evolution of the Earth's biosphere. However, the detection of embedded microfossils and mats in carbonaceous meteorites implies that comets and meteorites may have played a direct role in the delivery of intact microorganisms and that the biosphere may extend far into the cosmos. Recent space observations have found the nuclei of comets to have very low albedos (˜0.03) and these jet-black surfaces can become very hot (T ˜ 400 K) near perihelion. This chapter reviews recent observational data on comets and suggests that liquid water pools could exist in cavities and fissures between the internal ices and rocks and the exterior carbonaceous crust. The presence of light and liquid water near the surface of the nucleus enhances the possibility that comets could harbor prokaryotic extremophiles (e.g., cyanobacteria, sulfur bacteria and archaea) capable of growth over a wide range of temperatures. The hypothesis that comets are the parent bodies of the CI1 and the CM2 carbonaceous meteorites is advanced. Electron microscopy images will be presented showing forms interpreted as indigenous microfossils embedded in freshly fractured interior surfaces of the Orgueil (CI1) and Murchison (CM2) meteorites. The size range and morphological characteristics of these forms are consistent with known representatives of morphotypes of all five subsections (orders) of Phylum Cyanobacteria. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) elemental data show that the forms in the meteorites have anomalous C/N and C/S as compared with modern extremophiles and cyanobacteria. These images and spectral data indicate that the clearly biogenic and embedded remains cannot be interpreted as recent biological contaminants and therefore are indigenous microfossils in the meteorites.

I'd tell him to go **** himself.
This is a discussion on Mayors Against Illegal Guns within the The Second Amendment & Gun Legislation Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; One of my more liberal leaning friends, who apparently is on the Mother Jones mailing list, forwarded to me this email from Mayors against Illegal ...
One of my more liberal leaning friends, who apparently is on the Mother Jones mailing list, forwarded to me this email from Mayors against Illegal Guns asking what I thought about their proposals...
The following message from Mayor Cory Booker and Mayors Against Illegal Guns has been sent to you via Mother Jones .
Mayors Against Illegal Guns Tell Congress to Fix Gun Checks. Sign the Petition!Dear friend, Every day in America, 34 people are murdered with guns. Each death devastates a family and shatters a community. The recent tragedy in Tucson is no exception it sent a shock wave across our country that united us in a moment of crisis and profound loss. Now, to honor those affected by gun violence, we must take action to stop this pattern of senseless shootings.Americas gun laws are designed to keep firearms out of the hands of criminals, the mentally ill, drug abusers, and other dangerous people. But the background check system these laws depend on is broken, making it far too easy for guns to end up in the wrong hands. In my city of Newark, weve shown how a dedicated police force and an engaged community can reduce gun crime and make it harder for dangerous people to get guns. But we need our leaders in Washington to step up and help us get the job done. Thats why I'm asking you to join 550 mayors from across the country in calling on Congress and President Obama to fix our broken background check system. Sign the petition to Fix Gun Checks and tell your elected officials where you stand.The Tucson killer bought a gun despite a history of drug abuse and mental health issues. That is tragically reminiscent of Virginia Tech, where the shooter passed a background check even after a judge declared him mentally ill. In fact, weve seen this kind of failure again and again. Dangerous people have slipped through the cracks in our gun laws ever since Congress passed the first Gun Control Act back in 1968, after the assassinations of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy. Its time for Congress to fix gun background checks and stem this tide of violence by taking two critical steps:
Get all the names of people who should be prohibited from buying guns into the background check system. Require a background check for every gun sale in America.
Tell Congress to fix the broken background check system and keep our communities safe.Together, lets close out this 43-year struggle to keep dangerous people from getting guns. Thanks for standing up, Mayor Cory Booker
Kimber Tactical Ultra II, Kahr PM45, Kahr PM9, Kahr P380
I'd tell him to go **** himself.
I want to be a realist. There are people who should be prohibited either because of their criminal record or significant mental health history. I'm not going to knee jerk complain about folks who want effective background checks from databases with real and verifiable information. Yup, its a pain, but it is a pain which may be worthwhile.
This issue is in some ways a distinct process from permitting. Even in "constitutional carry" states the purchase requires a check. Let's make that system work. What's wrong with that?
Will there be problems, of course. No system is perfect. But why on G-d's earth should we let convicted released felons further break the law by sauntering into a gun store and being able to purchase---against the law-- without trying to prevent it.
Why would we want to NOT make an effort to keep guns out of the hands of those who have been found mentally incompetent and who are not recovered?
This is not the same thing as permitting. I need no permit to purchase and possess a long gun, but I do need a background check.
There are other more important gun issues to me than having a retailer check a computer to make sure I wasn't in a penitentiary for 7 years or confined to a hospital by court order. I'm more than willing to answer a few questions truthfully.
Flame away.
i agree with you hopyard.
i would refrain from telling him to go **** himself. if something like this were to pass, you might find yourself on that list of people prohibited from owning a gun.
Here's the opposing view on MAIG: NRA-ILA :: The Truth About "Mayors Against Illegal Guns" There's lots been written on this group and none of it bodes well for gun owners due to incrimentalism. We all know how the story goes: a bill is introduced in a "reasonable" form that makes "common sense" to some folks. Then the bill goes through conference and all their other legislative gymnastics and we come out with a set of amendment-laiden laws that purports to be good for controlling guns (yours and mine, mostly) but totally ineffective in slowing down the BG's. Many mayors have pulled out of the group after they finally learned the hidden agenda. Do some real research on it and see what you think, then you'll know how to respond to your "friend" who sent you the article.
And here's the MAIG sight...read it all with your thinking cap on...leave the rose colored glasses off.

I'm all for wanting to keep dangerous weapons from dangerous people, too. Heck, who isn't for 'de-fanged' criminals, except criminals. Once someone is identified as dangerous and proven to be so (ie, conviction via jury of peers), then our system of governance has a simple way of dealing with it. And at that point, a simple background check can work, so long as one is comfortable with disallowing previously-convicted felons and 'mentals' from having dangerous weapons. But in the 'gray' area where claims and accusations rule (ie, before conviction), few (if any) legislative proposals have ever done more than (a) restricting upstanding citizens and (b) failing to keep any firearms from felons willing to go somewhere other than the corner store. Little, if any, legislation has ever gotten around that one simple issue.

Hop - I basically agree with you. An effective system to keep those in society that should not have access to guns from gaining such access is not a bad thing. Now, who has been in the news lately as being the main culprit in what should have been denied illegal gun sales but they actually went througth? Let me think, oh yeah, BATFE in an operation that appears to have been approved by the current justice department and executive administration. Let's start with fixing that faux pas.
As to the lapses in the system for Tucson, there seems to be plenty of evidence that had government personnel in the military and sheriff's office acted on what they knew and put this info into the database, the system would have worked. This is not a sign of a broken system, which could not possibly be omniscient, but the mark of a failure in the support system around that system. As long as people are involved, and how can they not be in such a system, there will be errors both innocent and purposed.

You are only paranoid until you are right - then you are a visionary.
My local gun shop (hole in the wall) has had several of his long time customers and friends get their 4473 denied due to an "Error" that they had to go get straightened out. Nothing they did, just someone else screwed up somewhere and they [customer] had to go fix it.
Human fault falls on both sides of the current system, but it is not broke, so don't fix it.
They start requiring HIPA releases on the 4473, that will be one more step closer to Gattaca than I would prefer.

No Flame here. I must do a back ground check to purchase and I don't mind and here's why....I'm not a criminal. Every time I pass a weapons check it think "Bite Me." I believe weapons in the hands of criminals that are purchased illegal hurts us all as the gun controllers are not operating on common sense that separates the legal from the criminal. They just want them all gone for easier population control. Thats their agenda. They can holler all they want as most criminals don't bother to purchase legally anyway. I believe all the gun controllers must know this because they don't stop and their efforts make no impact on removing guns from criminals...its about gun control for all and just using criminals as the disguise for their original intent. Its easier to control the masses if they only have sticks. If their efforts are successful some day to remove guns from criminals then good for them. They also want to introduce your medical records in the check which is none of there business. This is where I draw a line. Meanwhile, I'll protect myself. If I'm wrong then I'm wrong but I dont think so. How do you tag someone that flies under the radar. I dont think the debate would be so difficult they they were just honest in their approach but, it always feels like I need a shower after I talk to an anti.
Remember, I carry a gun because a cops too heavy.
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

As we all know Rare (Rareware) has been making great games for a long time.
They are best known for the games they have created for Nintendo, but know Rare is reaching its downfall. Microsoft purchased Rare and now Rare is making terrible games. If Nintendo re-bought Rare, then they will soon go back to making great games again. With the advances in video game technology, Rare could make great games for the next generation Wii console. If this petition spreads to Nintendo and Microsoft, we might see characters like Banjo back at Nintendo. Please hear me out sign this petition ,tell your friends and lets bring back Rare to Nintendo!
Do it for Rare.
- Nintendo
- Microsoft
I have been a fan of Rare since the Nintendo 64. They have made great games for Nintendo, my favorite being Banjo. As you all know Rare is now a part of Microsoft. They now make terrible games one of them was Banjo Nuts and Bolts. The goal for this petition is to convince Nintendo to buy Rare. Please tell your friends and help me support Nintendo and convince them to buy Rare.

A New Way To Beat Augusta ?
Let's start with a hearty congratulations to young Zach Johnson for a gutsy win yesterday. The Masters ! Tiger Woods breathing down your neck ! And he held up like a champion. Kudos to you, young man.
But isn't Augusta supposed to have been Tiger-proofed, stretched to almost 7,500 yards ? Wasn't it supposed to eliminate all but the longest hitters in the game ?
More than one golf scribe has written that the lengthening of Augusta National had eliminated from the chance for victory all but a dozen or so of the longest, strongest in the game.
So how is it that Zach Johnson, ranked 157th in driving distance for the year so far, who hits it all of 276.3 off the tee (that's almost 25 yards out of the top ten !), was treated to a fitting of the famed jacket yesterday evening ?
Well, I've got two insights into that for you.
First of all - no question - it was his week. That's the way golf is, right ?
And when the golf gods smiled upon him with a grand week, he had the composure and ability to keep his wits and play "in peace."
He gave credit to his Lord Jesus in his remarks, which I found humbling and inspirational.
But Zach Johnson did his part, too. He came into this place knowing he couldn't overpower Augusta National, so he played it "his way."
And his way is to capitalize on the fact that he is 11th on the tour in driving accuracy, putting his tee shot in the fairway over 71 percent of the time. Anyone who has watched the Masters for long knows that there is little rough, but that this course has to be played from the correct spot in the fairway. Zack Johnson found those spots more often than not.
But what really impressed me is when Mr. Johnson said he came here with the game plan of never going for a par 5 in two shots.
What ? No eagle heroics on 13 and 15 all week ? Who would dare play Augusta like that ?
Well, he decided he would. And you know what ? He played the par 5's better than anyone in the field for the week. Twelve par 5's in four rounds. Zack Johnson's strategy produced eleven birdies and no bogies - the best in the field !!
What do you bet he put a lot of extra practice into his wedge play in the weeks leading up to this ?
He knew he could count on them, and he did. And it paid off.
So, maybe there's a lesson in that for all of us. After all, we're not going to beat the golf courses we play with our drivers, but we can play them "Zach's way", with our wedges.
Next time you're on the driving range, pounding away with your driver, think about diverting a good portion of that time to hitting wedges.
Zach Johnson will tell you that's the way to beat a golf course...any golf course....even Augusta National.

I'll say this - I've birdied more par5's from a wedge shot than I have after a 3 wood second shot.
Congrats to Zach !
Now if I can figure out how to hit 71% of the fairways I see ...
John Richardson says:
Great post. Very much (again) what I was thinking too. I became a wedge fiend in my quest for the par round and really fell in love with them.
What I love most about the Johnson story though is how he managed to ignore all those folk who regard the Masters as something that can only be won by the big hitters. All the old guys were preaching this before it started.
