At this exact moment I can't say I'm especially enamoured of running. I've just completed my training for the London Marathon and, to be honest, my feet could do with a rest. That, however, will pass: in truth, I'm far from fed-up with running. Once the daunting 26-mile track is out the way, and I've taken a week off to rest, I know I'll be keen to be back in my leggings and pounding the pavements.
It wasn't ever thus. Once upon a time, you would be hard-pressed to find an activity I disliked with greater intensity than running. I'd been forced to do cross-country at school and, in times of drastic weight penitence, had dabbled with the 20-minute loop around the local park. Running to me meant burning lungs, short breath and humiliation at the hands of my feeble stamina. Even worse, running meant Runners: evangelical, lycra-loving, outdoorsy types. Give me the calm calorie consumption of the gym any day.
Circumstances changed my mind when, on moving flats, I no longer lived around the corner from my local gym. So – about a year and a half ago – I took myself out for my first jog, motivated purely by vanity. It was horrible, of course:I made all the predictable mistakes. I tried to run too far and – worse – too fast. I got a stitch in minutes, and eventually gave up, weighed down by my heavy hoodie and tripped up my flimsy plimsolls. Things didn't get much better (in fact, as my motivation waned they got far worse). Until, that is, I signed up for the London Marathon.
Goodness knows why: it sounded like my idea of hell. But for some reason I did. I signed up, and – more binding still – I promised Save The Rhino that I'd raise a couple of thousand pounds. So I had to start running – and my goodness, I'm glad.
Once I'd learned a few training basics, it wasn't long before I began to love running. Really love it. Love it so much that I now use it as a means of transport to and from work, and get antsy if I don't get in a satisfactory number of jogs per week.
And now, here I am: 12 months on, a dedicated running enthusiast about to spend five hours hauling myself around London for fun (and fund-raising). What's more, I've yet to develop an unhealthy interest in lycra. In fact, the only one of those dreaded runners' traits I've developed is a slight evangelicalism. Because learning to love running is really not hard. It's actually very easy indeed.
Before anything - before the fancy gear, thought-out schedule and correctly stocked fridge – becoming a "runner" is about mental commitment. When your fitness levels are zero, those first few miles aren't going to be enormously enjoyable, but if you stick with them for a couple of weeks, they soon will be. Finding the motivation to do so is key. If you think self-discipline could be a problem it doesn't hurt to sign up to a race. There are plenty of relaxed, middle-distance events on all year round, and having the commitment involved in registering can be a helpful spur to start training.
Even better than signing up for a race is signing up for a sponsored one. Getting involved in a charity doubles the feel-good factor of running, and introduces a new element of commitment.
Laura Adams is co-ordinating this year's London Marathon team for Save The Rhino International, and has witnessed countless novices become regular runners after getting involved with the cause. "Running for charity is a great incentive to keep up with a busy training schedule. It gives runners an opportunity to give something back, to a cause they really believe in, and we certainly appreciate the dedication and commitment of all the runners taking part."
The most important factor of all, though, is avoiding making it a chore. If you're not feeling well, or you're tired, you won't enjoy your run. So don't force yourself when you aren't feeling up to it. Try and find a way to think of running as a pleasure rather than a pain. If you see running as a chance to relax and spend time with yourself, focus on that. If you run with a friend, try thinking of your jog as a social occasion.
For runners, whether they are just starting out or have been pounding out an annual marathon for years, their body is their key instrument. Looking after it is crucial. It can be tempting, as a novice runner, to attempt too much too soon; if you don't achieve want you hope, it can be very dispiriting.
Christina Neal, editor in chief of Women's Running magazine, recommends short runs, of only a few miles, three to four times a week.
"Sessions of 20 minutes each time are better than longer sessions once or twice a week," she reasons. "The 'small and often' approach will boost your stamina gradually. It doesn't matter if you jog slowly, or even if you have to mix walking with jogging. As soon as you start feeling better, your motivation will improve and you'll soon become hooked."
Just as important is that ensuring your body is properly fuelled. "If you don't have energy, you won't run effectively," explains John Brewer, professor of sport at the University of Bedfordshire (and 12-time London Marathon entrant). "Carbohydrates should become the main part of the diet. Even beginners, who won't be doing the same mileage, will use carbohydrate as their main fuel. Doing an Atkins-style diet and running is a big no-no. If you are running to lose weight, you can still do it by shifting away from fats."
Ensuring you are well hydrated is also key – and, while not entirely necessary, many runners swear by the benefits of their specially designed sports drinks. "The reputable commercial products all contain electrolytes, carbs and fluids for maximum hydration," says Professor Brewer. "But if you are doing a race, stick to what you know, whether that's water or Lucozade sport, and don't try anything new."
Finally, several key elements of good athletic practice are essential, even for beginners. Recent studies have called into question the importance of warming up and stretching pre-run; but while your pre-run ritual may not be entirely crucial your post-run one is. Stretching after running means you won't spend the rest of the week aching, and reduces the risk of injury (there are few things more discouraging than having to take weeks off when you've only just started).
One of the most often heard reasons for a reluctance to start running is boredom. Understandably so, as pounding the pavements with nothing to occupy your thoughts is boring – but it is also something that is easily avoidable. Running with friends is one way to solve the problem, though it's not for everyone. Carrying a well-stocked MP3 player is another; given the pace of day-to-day working life, the opportunity to spend half an hour listening to a new album or an unheard audiobook is not unappealing.
Even without these options, with a bit of persistence, your brain will train itself to overcome the boredom conundrum; many a dedicated runner looks on his or her regular jog as a chance to quietly meditate. Just as helpful is ensuring you have sufficient scenic variety. Running doesn't have to be limited to the local park, it can be a great way to get to know a new neighbourhood, to survey shop windows, or discover new outdoor treasures lurking a few miles away.
And it's important not to forget the role of the gym. As national fitness manager for Virgin Active, Nick Hudson frequently comes across runners working on their fitness using the gym's machines: "I would recommend treadmill for interval training – whereby you alternate between fast and slow speed settings – and other training models, such as the cross trainer, that keep the heart rate up, strengthen the body and keep you fit in a different way to running." Even classes such as Yoga, Pilates and Body Balance can help; balance and flexibility are important skills in running.
Although running requires little financial outlay, buying a few essentials is a crucial long-term investment. Christina Neal recommends visiting a specialist running store, rather than a high-street sports shop, for trainers. Nike recently began offering its customers personalised gait analysis, which can be great for ensuring the correct fit.
And, once you become a bit more serious about your regime, it can be worth buying a few other professionally designed items: pocketed leggings, waterproofs and breathable shirts all improve the running experience. In colder months having the right top to wear – lightweight but sturdy enough to keep you warm – is crucial.
One of the biggest surprises that comes with starting out as a runner is the amount of support that's readily available – particularly online. Runners World (Runnersworld.co.uk) is one of the most comprehensive resources, with details of races all over the world, and forums for runners to debate the merits of different diets, training techniques and equipment. For female runners, the Women's Running website (Womensrunninguk.co.uk) can be a haven for chatting with like-minded runners, setting up running groups and finding advice.
And, of course, it's worth considering the support of sports therapists, trainers and physiotherapists. Many serious runners swear by their monthly massage and, if injured, a visit to the physio is a definite must.

best toasters any complements about these. They are extremely comfortable and suitable for both day and evening wear. Slim fit. I chose these for myself as I already have a plain black pair and love them but they're not very glamorous. As long as you like wearing toe-post sandals, these are the absolute most comfortable pair of footwear and the only pair I plan on taking on holiday to Spain later this year. Like all Fitflops I have bought these fit perfectly are are very comfortable.The price was good, and these gold oneshave a 'bit of bling', just right for warm summer evenings. Comfortable stylish, great for holidays and at home.worn by every European woman country around the pool...Different styles availableGreat Bought these for my mum for her birthday. She loves Kuala Lumpur kay film and give it 2 stars, but I'm sure that kids would enjoy this more, hence the three stars, a good performance by the kid who plays Mike who for me was very much the star of the film.I do have to agree though that it is a predictable film, but I'm sure the kids won't worry about that. Daughter loves these and wears them almost constantly. Good quality and look just like baseball boots. Very novel and yet functional too. 10-10 Great They look like shoes. Only trouble is I forgot and dropped an anvil on my toe...yeas, I normally believe that a thin barrier of leather will protect me from one tonne of steel. Really fun and very effective. You can tell what they are supposed to be. Would re-order. Good quality and price. Just what the recipient wanted! These socks are great and wear well. Something alternative to boring black socks! Lots of comments about these. Would buy again. Bought for my sister as a bit of fun for Christmas. They are ex best dishwashers ofer. The spray bottle makes it easy and simple to apply. Spray over the shoes to the point where you get a bit of run off, dab the drippy bits and leave to dry. So far I have treated two pairs of children's school shoes, a pair of Merrell nubuck shoes and a pair of Merrell walking boots and a pair of suede trimmed casual shoes. I still have some left in the bottle.Water does seem to run off and my perception is that the boots get less ingrained dirt stuck to them. It stops the leather Babyliss UK sneakers I own. There's far more impressive stuff out there.As I said, the book looks great: it's a hardback, with a nice, slightly foam padded cover and the pictures are clean, crisp, well shot, and wonderful. In fact you can't fault the book itself... at least not physically.However, where the book lets itself down is in its content. As the name suggests it's just a collection of - or rather, a look back at - the classic trainer designs and brands from over the years. Perhaps I'm being harsh (the book's title suggests that's all it is), as it doesn't claim to be anything else, but for me, the world of trainers and sneaker culture offers so much more than a.
best rate isa m even after several miles. I would recommend them.
I didn't even realise these could be purchased until I spotted some on Amazon a month or two before I needed to buy some for some new trainers. I am having difficulty using my thumbs at the moment so I thought these might make wearing a new pair of trainers easier.They arrived in a bag with lacing instructions. all four ends of the elasticated laces were hardened to make lacing easier and they fit through the holes in the trainers without difficulty. The instructions show how to lace and fit through the plastic bits but do not give any firm information as to the best type of knot to use. I've never been a scout so I just knotted in my own style. It seemed pretty firm and the cone shape hid most of it from view. I then cut off the excess lace - of course this cuts off the hardener fast with delivery and very professional sellers, I expected a bit more from the product itself.The stickers are nicely made (I bought Blue and Grey), apart from the difficult part of having to cover them with the transparent protection. Not so easy to achieve being the same exact size and shape as the sticker itself.Suggestion for the manufacturer: place the transparent protection on the stickers before cutting them and save your and the customers time.
At school you have to label everything even the shoes these were great for his water bottle and fruit box as you can make the labels waterproof
The labels are easy to use and take no time at all to use. They stick in the shoes and stay in t nonopro onsidering purchasing in another colour. I am a size 40 and they were perfect.
These Fly shoes are over generously sized so you may find they almost fit but slip at the heel. Prepare to buy heel grips to stop them slipping.
Nice comfy shoe, I like the style this will be great for our in-between seasons weather! Arrived as expected, well packaged, I will order Fly London again.
These shoes look good. They are a tiny bit on the large side. I ordered a size 3 - depending on the style of a shoe, I'm either a 3 or a 4 and while they're a good fit at the front, the back of the shoe is a ti vivienne westwood jewellery when you play. I've got one foot half a size smaller than the other but that was easily solved by adding an extra insole and both shoes fit very well.
Brilliant trainers for any use. The last pair lasted about 6 years of wear and the leather top was just as new, hope these last as long. They are very comfortable to wear and clean well.
I have bought three pairs of these now as I play tennis a lot. They last about three years when used 2-3 times a week. They are very comfortable and not as expensive as some other makes.
I bought this women's tennis shoes as men's don't come in small sizes - yes I have small feet (I've heard all the jokes before and have made some of my own!).I've had this make before and highly recommend them. It's good to be able to get plain white shoes without any pink or blue girly bits on them. Just plain white, well fitting, well supporting decent tennis shoes that are comfor.
best price.com part. a quick wash and they are like new. a tip if you are buying white, i invested in some good quality white dye for my daughters, after a few washes they go a bit dull, however after applying the whitener they are back to brand new again. dont bother buying cheaper canvas trainers, invest the extra in these.
Arrived on time,very happy with my new Vans! so comfortable and a few of my friends also asked where I got them will defo recommend and Im also ordering them in white for the Summer :) always buying with Amazon would be lost without it!
My purchase was the Black Lo Pro, Vans shoe; My delivery was swift and easy, the shoes and box arrived in good condition. The trainer it's self is very relyable and does look very trendy. They keep my feet very cosy and dry during rainy periods, which was really what I was looking for. The price was value for money, being £10 less than retail stores. Overall I think this product, couldn't perticually get any better, this is why I gave it 5 out of 5 stars.
I have a very happy daughter! excellent quality, arrived in of ladies tennis shoes that I can find in a ladies size 43. Now on my second pair. They are comfortable from the start, with a good grip on the court surface, offering ideal support to the foot - pity about my tennis!
Bought this to carry cycling shoes for spin class in the gym. Material a little plasticky but does the job and not bad for the price.
Perfect, arrived on time and was as described. Given as a Christmas present for my 6 year old for his footie boots and he was very pleased. Would recommend this seller to other buyers. Thanks so much.
The bag no no hair removal e not.
These insoles are very comfortable and well fitting. They seem well made and should last a fair while. The only downside in fact is that they are incredibly thick, like, ridiculously deep. I put them in a pair of shoes that were a size too big for me, I used to slop around inside them with my old insoles, but with these monsters in them they suddenly became so tight fitting I couldn't wear them. I had to take out the new insoles and put the old ones back in just so my feet could 'breath'. Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking these insoles, I'm just trying to warn anyone thinking of buying them, to make sure the shoes/boots you intend putting them in are at least 1 size too big for you or else you feet will suffocate....
I bought these insoles as my job requires me to always be on my feet and they were always aching. However since using this product I can do a shift without my feet hurting at all. I can't believe the difference! I recommend this product to anyone looking for comfort. Thank you to the seller, fast delivery also :)
I am delighted with these shoes. They are my first pair of proper cycling shoes but I looked around for quite nono pro reviews als ensures plenty of support for the arches and protection against stubbing your toes. They have good strong laces that thread through metal eyelets. The top two eyelets are hook types, so the laces are simply slid underneath (no need to thread). These top hooks are specifically designed to grip the laces tightly. This means you are meant to pull the laces tight, then slip them under the hooks. This helps prevent the laces from coming undone. One reviewer mentioned having problems tightening the laces and this is the reason why.I had noticed a couple of reviewer's mentioning that these shoes were very wide. For this reason I selected my standard shoe size. Unfortunately, I do not find them particularly.

Heart of darkness is a book written by joseph Conrad as a frame narrative about the life of Charles Marlow who worked as a transporter in the Congo River, which is situated in Central Africa while Apocalypse is a film produced and directed by Francis Ford. The film has notable characters like Robert Duvall, Martin Sheen, and Marlon Brando. The main character in this movie is Captain Benjamin Willard who acts as a special operations officer whose main mandate is to kill Cornel Walker Kurtz. These two pieces of art exhibits lots of similarities since they tend to raise similar questions to the audience and hence they tend to portray same themes when looked at from a similar perspective.
These two works captures the theme of the hypocrisy of western imperialism. The heart of darkness covers issues concerning imperialism in weird and complicated ways. Marlow, one of the main characters travels to the Central Station from the Outer Stationed and finally up the river towards the Inner Station. As he does all these types of travelling and movements, he encounters all forms of cruelty, torture, and near slavery. The book offers an absolutely harsh view of the colonial enterprise. It portrays colonialists as individuals who are out to cause chaos and disrupt the flow of events concerning the people living in the respective colonies (Bloom 66). The men who work for the Company set up by the colonialists regards what they do as 'trade' which involves unfair treatment of the black people under pretense of civilization by the colonial masters. Kurtz himself is bold enough to describe his activities in the Congo region as taking ivory by force rather than engaging in trade as he had initially been doing. He treats the natives with a lot of extermination and suppression. He also reveals that he rules over these people by use of violence and suppression (Bloom 87). This self-confession helps to reveal how European are extending their evil practices in Africa under pretense of trade related activities. Marlow looks at Africans as a mere backdrop, in fact a screen against which he can portray out his existential and philosophical struggles.
The theme of western imperialism is also captured in the Apocalypse in the sense that it illuminates the ironies that surrounds the Vietnam War and western imperialism. The film reveals the pains that resulted from the Vietnam War, which is spearheaded by the US government under the pretense of facilitating peace and democracy in the war stricken and chaotic Vietnam. The US army uses crude mechanisms to cause death, misery, and suffering to the innocent people of Vietnam. The bridge, sampan, and air strike scenes in the movie reveal how killings and maiming of civilians is done in Vietnam under the US army (Bloom 125). American troops are helping to kill the civilians instead of protecting them and finding peaceful and alternative mechanisms of ensuring that there is peace in that region. US armies are strangers in Vietnam and yet they act as if they own that place by continuing to stake the territory where they fire and kill without provocation.
Another theme that is shared by both works is the theme of madness as a result of imperialism and war. Conrad in his book links madness to imperialism. He argues that Africa as a continent is partly responsible for the scenes of mental disintegration as well as physical madness. He portrays madness as a phenomenon that has two distinct functions. The first one is that it is used to facilitate the idea of engaging the reader's sympathies (Bloom 62). Marlow is told from the very beginning that he has mental disparity, however, as the readers continue getting deeper into the book; it is eventually revealed that Marlow's madness is actually relative since it becomes apparent that in the context of the idea of insanity becomes difficult to either define or comprehend (Bloom 37). This makes the readers and Marlow to start sympathising with Kurtz and view the Company with a lot of suspicion.
The idea of madness in this book also tends to establish the necessity of social fictions that are part of the societal setting. Explanatory justifications and social mores are shown throughout the book to be utterly wrong and even leading to evil since they are nevertheless essential for both individual security and group harmony. Madness in this book is associated with the idea of an individual being disintegrated from his/her own social context and be allowed to become the sole or main arbitrator of owns actions. The theme of madness is also brought up in the Apocalypse now. The film is portrayed as a metaphor that is concentrating on a journey into the self and reveals how the self, as a result of war, darkens beyond recognition (Keller 87). There is a scene where Willard, one of the main characters in this war filled movie moves upriver with his colleagues. He and the PBR crew becomes excessively agitated and separated from the reality surrounding their lives and activities in Vietnam.
They are in Vietnam on a mission of ensuring that there is sanity, order, peace, and democracy by fighting any form of resistance from the oppressors of civilians. The movie shows how Willard and his PBR crew suffers from a mental breakdown while on a unique mission, which they were assigned to by the leadership of the US army (Keller 74). The movie has a chef who in one, scene happens to encounter a tiger thus making him never to be the same again from the mental perspective. His temper becomes shorter after this experience, and he resorts to drugs afterwards. Lance, one of the characters in this film manages to return to drugs after taking part in the Vietnam War. He goes ahead to camouflage his face thus signalling a changed self. There is an incident where clean, a close associate of the Chef is killed (Keller 45). This incident makes the Chef to breakdown emotionally thus becoming a changed man. The film highlights how the experiences in Vietnam manages to change the perceptions and character traits of individuals who took part in the Vietnam War.
The prospect of going to war in Vietnam at first sounded like an exciting voyage from the American troops who were obsessed with the idea of representing their country in its quest of calming the situation in Vietnam with a view of restoration of peace and democracy in that war torn country. Characters happens to harden themselves thus allowing the movies to reflect their impending madness by covering the journey in fog ad darkness to portray the hallucinatory atmosphere in Vietnam (Keller 14).
Both pieces of art covers the themes of Hypocrisy and madness that results from the ideas of colonisation and war. The book and the movie covers activities on how the Americans and Europeans have caused chaos, suffering, killings and untold misery to the innocent people of Congo and Vietnam respectively. The Europeans enters Congo under the pretense of trade only to end frustrating the natives. Their activities in Congo causes some sort of mental problems to the Europeans themselves. The same scenario is witnessed in Vietnam where the America troops ends up killing and injuring the innocent Vietnam civilians by pretending to be helping them to restore peace and democracy. The soldiers themselves suffers mental breakdowns that leads some of them to drugs as a mechanism of finding solace.

The Tucan Cottage exceeded our expectations, beautifully decorated, extremely clean, exactly as advertised.
Our schedule did not allow to spend much time enjoying the cottage, basically was just to sleep this time. Looking forward for the next visit with a more flexible schedule.
This cozy cabin is a fantastic place to getaway for the weekend.
Judith is very friendly and provided all needed details for a nice stay.
the pictures can't show how beautiful is this place. you have to be there and see it by your own. we felt like we were the only one on this mountain. the cottage is very clean, nice set up. thanks to Judith and Richard. she surprised us with a small gift for our 10th anniversary. Judith recommended riverbend restaurant. i love the view of this small restaurant. eating and listening to the river. i didnt want to go home. we are planning for the next visit.
A friend and I stayed here this past week and it was an awesome stay! Highly recommended. The hosts are very friendly...we will be back soon!
My wife and I had a great time. Cabin is in a very nice location. The pictures do not do it justice, so much better in person than what we were expecting.
I'm not sure exactly how we stumbled across the Tucan in Bailey, but am glad we did. Having never been to Colorado, we wanted to see some picturesque site, possible fish , see some concerts at Red Rocks Amphitheater and travel to Breckenridge & Pikes Peak in Colorado Springs. This location was central all of them and the views (we stayed off the interstates) were breathtaking. The deck of the cottage had awesome views and offered a tranquil setting.

Playlist: Remembering The Sounds Of CBGB
Between watching the new CBGB movie and preparing for our CBGB Music and Film Festival show this Saturday with the Meat Puppets, I've been thinking a lot about the time I spent at CBGB's (and yes, we always used the "s" even though it's not part of the official name) when I was in high school. The punk scene was my first exposure to music that wasn't mainstream, and to underground art, whatever that meant.
In fact, my first punk concert -- the Brooklyn band The Shirts -- took place not at CBGB but in a loft as part of an evening of performance art. A friend from school had a brother and two cousins in the band, so we would occasionally go watch them play; and since they were close to being the unofficial house band at CBGB, they were my gateway drug into that community.
So I decided to put together a playlist of ten songs: Most of the bands included were groups I saw at CB's (read on for the surprising exception). The recordings were made in the period between 1975 and 1979. Some of them are now considered classics, while others are simply the songs that I most associate with that place and that time.
All of them are worth remembering, if you don't already.
Listen to the Spotify playlist, and read about the tracks below.
Talking Heads, "Love Goes To Building On Fire"
My earliest memory of this band is as a trio, with David Byrne hiding behind an enormous dreadnought-style acoustic guitar and looking genuinely terrified. But there was definitely something going on there. "Psycho Killer" was their signature tune once the first record came out, but this was the song that first hooked me.
Television, "Marquee Moon"
What a great song. Eerie, catchy and, like, ten minutes long, and full of stinging guitar solos, "Marquee Moon" is everything the press said punk wasn't. The songs are really short and fast, they said; no one really knows how to play. Really? Just listen.
Mink DeVille, "Cadillac Moon"
Willy DeVille and his band were one of my absolute favorite live acts at CBs. This recording comes from the Live At CBGB's compilation from 1976. Another song that doesn't follow the so-called punk template.
Dead Boys, "Sonic Reducer"
This one, on the other hand, is exactly what punk was supposed to sound like. A roar of youthful abandon, with one tiny, short hook, but a hook that helped define the sound of CBGB.
The Shirts, "Poe"
Singer Annie Golden and the boys made a couple of records in the late '70s, but they never matched the band's live energy and sound. I was there the night they recorded this version of "Poe," for the Live At CBGB's album. Even here, the recorded sound pales against my now-dimmed memories of this song done live.
Tuff Darts, "(Your Love Is Like) Nuclear Waste"
Robert Gordon would go on to a notable solo career, but Tuff Darts were the forgotten band/secret weapon of the CB's scene. "All For The Love Of Rock And Roll" was the band's best-known song, but this is the one that summed up the Tuff Darts sound for me.
The Ramones, "Beat on the Brat"
I never actually saw the Ramones live at CBGB. I don't know why or how that happened, since I saw them elsewhere. But they were on the jukebox, and that is where I first heard the band that everyone at CB's seemed to be talking about.
Blondie, "Rip Her To Shreds"
Again, there were other songs that were more popular in Blondie's earliest days. "Sex Offender" would later be released as the slightly sanitized "X Offender," and "You Look Good In Blue" was every teenage boy's wet dream. But this song was Blondie's punkiest.
Patti Smith, "Gloria"
One of the most famous opening lines in all of rock. One of my most memorable nights at CBGB's (I'm afraid there are quite a few I don't remember at all) was watching Patti Smith perform in a neck brace after she had fallen off a stage and fractured her neck. Would she tone down the show in deference to the possibility of a life-altering injury? She would not.
Richard Hell And The Voidoids, "Blank Generation"
This song was the anthem of the CBGB's scene, from the former Television bassist and originator of the "punk look" –- you know, the rips and safety pins and all that -- which, for the record, most of us did not wear. There was no uniform, until punk became a "thing."
The Cramps, "Human Fly"
They were CBs regulars but they were late to put out a full-length album. This was a single, and later came out on their Gravest Hits EP. Another band whose recordings didn't do justice to their live sets, but you can hear the telltale twang that would send the band into a kind of psycho-rockabilly direction.

This odd myth isn't much-believed anymore, but it used to be considered common knowledge. Parents would encourage kids to eat the crusts of their bread because it would make their hair curly. This myth is said to have originated in 18th century Europe when famine plagued the land. People with curly hair were for some reason considered more prosperous, and they could afford more bread. The crust of the bread is actually the best part of the slice, packing eight times the antioxidants as the rest, so don't cut those crusts next time you make a PB&J, no matter what the hairstyle.

"Storage Wars" Star Sues, Claims Finds are Faked
One of the stars of cable TV's most popular shows is suing the network it's on, claiming that the reality show isn't so real.

"Storage Wars" star – or ex-star – Dave Hester…
("Storage Wars") "Yuuup!" // "I got you at 12, taking the bid 13." // "Yuuup!"
…is suing A&E and show producer Original Productions, alleging that the show is a sham, with valuable items being planted in storage lockers, and that he was fired for complaining about the practice.
("Storage Wars" Theme) "Money owns this town…"
Hester says a mini-BMW and newspapers announcing Elvis's death were put into units that otherwise contained trash. The complaint also alleges Hester was fired after his contract was picked up for a fourth season at $25,000 an episode.
A&E says they do not comment on pending litigation.

Visions of a transformed future for 2032 can build desirable, optimistic expectations, but sites of intervention have to be found today, that can shift the dynamics of development and release new community energy for change. VEIL, along with the Council, has identified a number of key potential 'Eco-Acupuncture' points within the Broadmeadows/Central Activities District area. VEIL is exploring and visualising a series of distributed and connected experimental visions for the future development of the region.
Broadmeadows 2032 showcases a series of design projects from Melbourne University, RMIT, Monash University and Swinburne University in the fields of architecture, landscape design, industrial design, communication design and service design. These ideas will be further developed and carried forward by Hume City Council in new and emerging strategic planning. In August 2010, the publication "Vision: Broadmeadows 2032" was launched as part of an exhibition in the foyer of Sustainability Victoria – it's available for download here on the website.

The Solider.Mature
I wondered why this girl would waste so much of her precious paper writing about her life. Why did she cling to the memory of her life? What exactly did she intend to do with the memories? If nothing else, would they not be a constant reminder of the life she used to lead. And in contrast, what she has now. What good could a dead family do for her anyway.
What were her intentions with this, memoir, I thought. What was she going to do, publish them?
"What a ridiculous idea".
But a senseless curiosity within me cared to know the answer to my own question. But was that all she was capable of? As far as I could understand, these scraps of paper resembled a confessional booth. What exactly did she intend to do with the papers, publish them? I had no idea, but a large part of me wanted to know.

- - CS36T Question (http://www.sailnet.com/forums/boat-review-purchase-forum/36200-cs36t-question.html)
CS36T Question
Did CS offer different keel options with the CS36, I have noticed some with a draft of 4'11" and others at 6'3". How would it compare to an Alberg 37 as a bluewater boat?
The CS36T was offered with either a deep keel or shoal draft keel. A few have sailed around the world. The Alberg is a full keel boat whereas the CS has fin keels.
If you have not found it already, here is the CS owners site.
Also look at "Halekai36" homepage. He has lots of good pics. He recently commented on the thickness of the hull on the CS36T and its off shore capabilities in another thread.
Along with the Niagara 35, the CS36T is on a short list of 35-37 footers I would take offshore. A very nice classic plastic that is still reasonably fast as a cruiser.
The Alberg 37, while a full-keel design, has a cutaway forefoot.
The CS 36 Traditional looks like this:
The thing that puts me off the Niagara 35 is the cored hull. Do you have any idea of the headroom or berth length in the CS36. Also I don't see many reccomended offshore boats with a fin keel, what makes it OK on the CS36?
cast - This is what I do know. CS36T is 15500 lbs, 6500lbs ballast, cored topsides and deck, CS36M is a little lighter at 13300lbs. The Merlin has an enclosed aft cabin. I have the 34 and have at least 6 foot headroom in all areas. Not sure about berth length.
I think part of what makes it offshore capable is the build quality. For more specifics, I would suggest signing up at the CSOA yahoo group and post your questions. It is a very active site and most of the CS owners here are active on it. There are also members on there that were working for CS when they were being built.
The Niagara 35 is a very strong boat, I would not dimiss it for a cored hull.
In my opinion if a boat is properly built and maintained then a cored hull is much superior to a solid hull. Much lighter, stiffer and drier.
There are only a few places where there is potential for water ingress and they are easy to deal with.
I do not know for sure but I would be very surprised if the spots where the through hulls etc are are solid glass. If not that is pretty easy to fix.
I had a CS30 and now have a Merlin, both bought direct from the factory which was about 20 miles from my home. As far as I know only the Merlin, the 40 and the 34 have cored topsides (from waterline up). All the other CS boats including the 36T had solid glass hulls. The amount of ballast in the 36T depended on whether it was shoal or deep draft. The design weight of the Merlin was 13,500 but I don't think a single one came out of the factory at that weight. They all came out heavier. Mine was closer to 15000.
I am jealous, I have wanted a Merlin since they first came out. :(

What we fear, we create
slightly ashamed to admit that the title for this poem was overheard on a dr.phil show...
anyway, i have been reading quite a bit about the fairy faith and folklore in celtic countries so thats what kind of inspired this poem
I do not march to the beat of your words,
your dreams, in which there are no orange groves.
What is it you have to say for yourself?
What is it you have to show for yourself?
but two daffodil yellow chicks, necks wrung,
in your leather hands
oil covered
thick molasses
Beyond all sleep, you crawl into the night
Searching for the doe and the stag
antlered with gold,
their tribal dance,
out their rage,
their glistening hooves
on ancestral soils.
with your muslin,
your brandished steel,
wandering one,
the cracks are crumbling,
the forgotten seeping through
You besieger, become the besieged.

Petitioning Lionsgate
Make Expendables 2 have an R Rating
The original charm of the first movie was its over-the-top violence. It was an homage to 80s action films. Making this one PG-13 would allow for less content and more censorship. Chuck Norris wanted this because of his conservative views. Do not let politics and censorship in general ruin art. To fix this, creative editing must be done (and possibly some re-shooting) to add in the bloody content needed to achieve an R rating like the first film. A lot of fans are planning to boycott, so please tell the studio to do the right and profitable thing.
