Report: Argyle 2 Cheltenham 0
Argyle 2
Reid 40, Hector og 54
Cheltenham Town 0
by RICK COWDERY
ARGYLE, led by the youngest skipper in the club's history, proved Easter Monday's defeat at York was a major blip and continued their fine run of form which is leading them away from relegation with a comfortable bounceback win.
Reuben Reid's first Home Park strike five minutes before half-time and an own goal by Cheltenham defender Michael Hector early after the break gave the Pilgrims a fourth win out of five, all against promotion candidates.
The only shame was that they could not turn one or more of some well-crafted second-half opportunities into a game-settling third. Reid, who again led the line well, might have had a hat-trick, and Robins' chief tormentors Jason Banton, Andres Gurrieri and man-of-the-match Joe Bryan all deserved a goal for his efforts.
With Argyle's regular central midfield claimed by injury (Lee Cox) and suspension (Conor Hourihane), manager John Sheridan turned to a first-time engine-room pairing of Luke Young and Curtis Nelson.
Teenager Nelson had missed the previous 12 matches following an upper-leg injury and had not played anywhere other than defence for two seasons; Young, just 20, had made the majority of his previous 49 Argyle starts on the wing.
Nelson had previously had just two outings at centre-back for the new manager before succumbing to injury and was an unused substitute in Argyle's last two games; Young had started just two previous matches during the new gaffer's 14-match spell in charge.
Such was Sheridan's faith in the admirable Nelson that he was also given the captain's armband most recently worn by Hourihane, making him the youngest player to lead out the Pilgrims in the club's researchable history.
By three days. The previous youngest also ran the show from midfield, Norman Piper, who was 19 years and 323 days old when he headed the team from the tunnel on August 19, 1967 at Cardiff City.
Nelson was also the fifth Argyle player to contest the coin-toss this season after Darren Purse, Max Blanchard, Nick Chadwick and Hourihane.
There was one other change to the starting 11 that had gone down 1-0 to York City on Easter Monday, with Gurrieri, the manager's preferred home option on the right side of midfield, replacing his away choice, Paris Cowan-Hall.
Cheltenham manager Mark Yates made no changes to his side, or his squad, after Monday's more than useful 1-0 home win over promotion rivals Northampton Town.
The Argyle that started the match resembled more the uncertain side which had been exposed by York five days earlier, rather than the one that had so comprehensively disposed of Exeter in their previous home game.
They did not threaten the Cheltenham goal in the opening ten minutes. By the time they did, through Nelson's snap shot, they had already survived a goalbound shot by Byron Harrison, the weakness of which aided Jake Cole's save.
However, Argyle gradually eased themselves into some control of the situation, which allowed them to get their main attacking option, Banton, on the ball.
The Pilgrims' leading scorer showed Hector a clean pair of studs after sucking him in, and then made ground on goal before firing a right-foot shot over the crossbar.
Cheltenham remained unfazed, though, and fashioned a really good opening with some slick passing that saw Bryan nip the ball off the toe of Sam Deering as the Cheltenham man shaped to shoot from well inside the penalty area.
The visitors lost forward Paul Benson midway through the first half, the Swindon loan man requiring a stretcher after collapsing with an ankle injury that appeared to be the result of an awkward turn, rather than a collision.
Immediately, Gurrieri teased Banton in behind the Cheltenham back line, and the Argyle man chose to seek goal number seven at the narrow angle of the near post, rather than by shooting across the goalkeeper, with the result that the ball flew wide.
Still, the sight of goal appeared to empower the Pilgrims, and Gurrieri himself was next to go close when, after Onismor Bhasera had ferreted away on the left to be able to cross the ball low to the near post, his shot was deflected by Steve Elliott.
Argyle had momentum, though it was not without the odd stutter, and, after Banton had again fired over, after again making an opening for himself, took the lead.
It came from another raid down Cheltenham's right-hand side, where they had looked particularly vulnerable, this time after Bryan had made some easy yards.
The young Bristolian's shot thudded back off the inside of goalkeeper Scott Brown's left-hand post and, with the Home Park groans were still hanging in the air, Reid muscled the ball into the goal.
Cheltenham immediately switched Jermaine McGlashan from the right side of midfield to the left. The move was ostensibly to shore up the Robins' defence, but McGlashan looked more potent on the opposite side and made himself room for an injury-time shot that brought the best out of Cole.
Argyle looked a little reticent to commit themselves in the opening minutes of the first half, content instead, it seemed, to contain Cheltenham's attacking intentions.
That changed when Bhasera decided to take on Keith Lowe, beat him for pace and made the bye-line. His powerful cross hit Hector, facing his own goal, flush on the chest and gave Brown no chance.
The Pilgrims then spurned tow good opportunities to go further ahead as their quick-breaking counter-attacks proved the perfect antidote to Cheltenham's high pressing game.
First, Bryan found Reid in the penalty area, but, although the striker kept cool to fashion the opening for a shot, his attempt failed to beat Brown.
Then Brown foiled a better Reid shot, but could only parry the ball up towards Gurrieri, who must have wished he was Nelson's height because a taller player would have been able to head the loose ball home.
Cheltenham's promotion ambitions demanded a response and they found one through substitute Kaid Mohammed, scorer of the winner in the 2-1 Robins' victory over Argyle at Whaddon Road earlier in the season, but Cole made another fantastic save.
The game settled down after that little flurry, with Argyle seemingly happy to defend in numbers and repel Cheltenham's increasingly Route One options.
They were not helped in their endeavours by a non-impact injury that saw Paul Wotton limp off, to be replaced by Anthony Charles.
The Pilgrims continued to cause Cheltenham problems on the break, with Bryan bringing out the best from Brown, and Reid failing to double up when his cute shot that left Brown flat-footed cannoned off a post.
The best chance of the lot came when the increasingly influential Banton fed Gurrieri, but Brown was equal to the little Argentinean's best efforts.
There was one scare late on, when Bhasera lost McGlashan, and Cheltenham's most consistently potent threat lifted the ball over Cole.
And the crossbar.
Argyle (4-5-1):
1 Jake Cole; 4 Maxime Blanchard, 15 Paul Wotton (26 Anthony Charles 76), 5 Guy Branston, 14 Onismor Bhasera; 27 Andres Gurrieri, 17 Curtis Nelson (capt), 19 Jason Banton (28 Ronan Murray 90), 8 Luke Young, 18 Joe Bryan, 24 Reuben Reid (7 Paris Cowan-Hall 90).

This post took over the internet as soon as it was posted by netizen Mae David. She took one of her worst experiences to Facebook to warn other people, especially women, to be extra alert and careful when going home alone.
According to her, she was on her way home around 5AM when she spotted a guy who looked like he was checking her out. She wasn't bothered at first. But when the guy rode the same jeepney, she started feeling paranoid. She sat the middle while the guy sat at the far end.
After some time, the guy suddenly pulled one of her earphones, and pointed a sharp weapon at her. She was waiting for him to ask for her money or cellphone, but then he started touching her private parts!
Pure disgust filled Mae, but she was helpless. She tried to ask help from the driver but she suspected that they were working together.

I dont know much about torque ratings. This is a "m22" with auto gears "super case" and the stronger optional cast iron center housing, also has Masiero gears and thicker front bearing, and optional steel bearing plate and nose cone for an even stronger transmission. Was wondering what you guys think the torque rating was. Thanks.

Customer Service – A Necessity To Improve Sales
Customers can get their products at any retail stores. Moreover, nowadays things are available online. So the only difference that you make as far as your retail store is concerned is to provide the best customer services to the customers that they will remember for a long time. Here in this article some of the essentials that should be in the organization to boost up sales are discussed, have a look at these.
Employee Satisfaction
This is perhaps the most important thing to have in the organization. If the employees are not happy working with the organization, it shows, and the customers will easily find it out. A happy employee will try his level best to satisfy the customers. The well trained and educated employees will have the confidence that they can deal in with any situation whatsoever because they know that they are endowed with the tools and knowledge that are essential to succeed. If the organization cannot make the employees happy, it can never make the customers happy.
The first impression falls when a customer enters the room is from the sales agents. If the customers find that the employees are busy talking to each other at the back of the counter, and none of them are at the counter, them it shows a clear sign of apathy that signals a negative impression on the customers. Customers expect to see the employees showing interest to help them and are ready to connect with the customers. This engagement is very important to improve sales.
Food And Beverages
Offering food and beverages to the valued customers act in favor of the company. It is a way of customer entertainment that reflects the interest of the organization in dealing with the customers. This gesture can also initiate interactions with the customers and to know their needs and preferences. It helps the sales team to work accordingly and to bring out only those products that the customers actually want without choosing from a large list of unnecessary products.
Never Monopolize Time
The sales team comes across with a variety of customers. Some are chatty and can blabber incessantly without actually buying anything, some are grumpy and cannot be satisfied easily; others are so meticulous about the products that the sales agents may lose their patience showing them products of their choice. The key to effective sales is to never allow monopolizing the time only on one customer while others are still waiting for their turn in the queue. The sales team should know how to effectively manage time and to serve the maximum number of customers at a given time.
Never Criticize
The sales team should never criticize customers in front of other customers. It may have a negative impact on the customers on whose presence you are criticizing others. They may also have the feeling that you can criticize them also in their absence to others.
These are some of the ways by which sales can be given a boost keeping the reputation of the organization intact.Read More
Keys To The Improvement Of Customer Services At Different Levels
No matter whether you are selling the best products in the market or how skilled your staff members are, at the end of the day the customers will only remember how well they were treated by the employees of your organization. They will remember the direct interaction that they had with the personnel. Here in this article some of the keys for the improvement of the customer services at different levels are discussed, have a look at these.
You cannot expect all the customers to behave in a similar manner. Some customers may be polite; others may be grumpy, even others may only intend to irritate you and will never purchase anything. The key to success is to handle each customer politely. Some customers may change completely over the week, and their preferences also change time to time. The things they were asking for the last week and with sincere efforts, you had tried to meet their demands, and suddenly now they may say that they don't need that anymore. This is a very common nature of the customers. So the sales agents must have the skill to sense the moods of the customers and adapt likewise.
Clear Cut Communication
Clear cut communication is very important in any business whatsoever. Never leave any scope that the customers think that they are not fully satisfied with the answers they receive. Never leave any room for confusion for the customers. Use authentic and positive language so that the customers may relate to this authenticity of the organization. Use of positive language is very important; no conversation with any customer should end unless and until the customers show signs of full satisfaction.
Knowledge Of The Products
It is you who is selling the products, so naturally, the customers will turn to you for any queries they have regarding the product. Make sure that you have all the detailed information about the products. Know the tactics where to turn when the queries from the customers become too technical for you to handle. But be honest to say that you don't know how to solve the problem, or you don't have a particular product that the customer is asking for. Do it in a positive way; instead of bluntly saying you don't have the products say it like, "if you wish you can place the orders now and we ensure you to deliver the products just as they reach our warehouse".
Accept Blame
The customer service agent should always bear in mind that they need to accept the blame on them even if they were miles away from the actual occurrence of the incident. For any business, you have to accept the fact that the customers can never be at fault. It is crucial to accept the negative feedback and to keep the customers happy.
Time Management
Never spend too much time on one customer while others are waiting. You need to know when and how to stop the interactions.
These are some of the keys to successful customer services following which the company can reach the heights of success.Read More
Concepts And Principles Of An Effective Customer Service
An effective customer service is not only limited to barely answering all the queries that the customers have, but customer service is well beyond this. It revolves around many principles and concepts that need to be followed by the sales personnel in order to boost up their sales and revenue margins. Log in to sector2sector.com to know more about this. Here in this article some of those principles and concepts are discussed that can make customer service a successful strategy for marketing.
Customer Service Should Be A Team Effort
Every employee in the organization should be trained to serve the customers in a polished and polite manner so that it does not look scripted. Training all the employees may help them to pitch in together in the busiest hours of business. Otherwise, the customers will have to depend solely on the front lines at the help desk which may not be feasible during the busy hours of business.
Hire New Employees
Hiring staffs that are inclined by nature to delivering this service to the customers in a perfect manner will be a wise step rather than training those employees who are unwilling to learn. They will simply browbeat this concept, and it will be a mere waste of time for both the employees and the organization itself.
Share Customers Feedback
Every organization must encourage its agents to ask various questions to the customers. This will make the interactions easy flowing with the customers. More interactions will help the agents to know about the preferences and needs of the customers, and thus they can help in the innovations of new products for the company.
Provide Support To The Employees
If the employees do not get full support from the organization in terms of salaries, better working environment or in terms of communication inter- office, they will simply be disinclined towards putting that extra effort to support the customers on behalf of the organization. The employees should feel that the organization has aninterest in the employees only then it will be reflected the world outside on behalf of the employees.
Honesty In Dealings
The service agents should be honest when dealing with the customers. They should readily admit if they do not have certain information instead of blabbering things unnecessarily. They should politely ask for some time from the customers and gives them assurance to revert back when they have enough information to meet the queries of the customers. This will help them in earning the respect of the customers and overall the commitment that the customers expect from the company.
Empathize With The Customers
The customer service agents should know to use this art of empathy as a competitive advantage of the company. A company cannot thrive in this competitive market unless the employees know how to rule out this culture pertaining to apathy. They should show interest in solving even the trifle of the problems faced by the customers. This will show in the behavior of the customer service agents, and the customers will be highly glad receiving this kind of a gesture from the employees.
Thus these are some of the principles pertaining to serving the customers in the perfect way. It will be aboon for the organization if the employees follow these principles.Read More

Space 1999 Eagle Transporter SPECIAL EDITION - 1:48 Scale Model Kit
Hi Guys,
I'm expecting 3 of these on Monday (and probably the only 3 ill be able to get at the initial price), will be able to confirm price then but if anyone (UK Only due to value) is interested drop me an email to email@example.com
(Info from supplier)
This is a single run production of 1000 special edition kits for worldwide sales with only 100 pieces available for sale in the UK. Demand is expected to be high and will outstrip supply and it will only increase in value as a true collector's kit!
Special Edition Kit Features:
18 x 24" Poster featuring artwork from the 22" Eagle packaging
Brian Johnson signed mini-print
9.5 x 13" Cartograf decal sheet featuring weathering panels and more
Limited edition 1000 pieces
The 18″ x 24″ poster features the box art from the kit. Logos have been minimized to really show off the great art on its own. There have been many requests for this poster. So here it is.
The large sheet of additional decals features some specific paneling arrangements that were shown on the filming miniature. It comes with additional marking and weathering to randomly spread across the model. This allows the builder to use no paint, or just use a base coat, then apply all these new decals to achieve a great look without additional masking and painting. This special sheet is has been produced by Cartograf of Italy, known world-wide for their outstanding quality.
Last, and best of all, this edition comes with a signature card signed by the Eagle Transporters designer Brian Johnson! Every kit will come with an authentic hand-signed card. Brian is a BAFTA and Academy Award winning special effects wizard with credits on films like 2001: A Space Odyssey, ALIEN, ALIENS and The Empire Strikes Back, not to mention his contributions to other Gerry Anderson productions such as Thunderbirds.
The Gerry Anderson show Space:1999 which originally aired in 1975, featured the crew of Moon Base Alpha as they found themselves stranded on our moon as a nuclear disaster knocked it from Earth's atmosphere. Sci-fi fans remember the outstanding special effects and production values of the show. The hero ship of the show was the Eagle-1 transporter, and in celebration of the 40th anniversary, MPC have released this special edition half scale model of the actual 44" studio miniature.

Earthbound! Sadly, the Player's Guide and scratch-n-sniff stickers have been lost in the ether.
Not really. I just wish I had made more progress on my backlog. Sigh. Here are the games I am currently playing through with the intention of beating relatively soon:
- Jak 3 - PS2 (I know, I know. Seems like I'm always mentioning the Jak series.)
- Donkey Kong Country Returns - Wii (I love this game and I hate this game. You know what I mean.)
- Infamous 2 - PS3 (I really should just beat this game already. I certainly like it enough.)
- Limbo - PS3 (A striking game in so many ways.)
- Chrono Trigger - DS (First time play-through. So much fun.)
- Link's Awakening - 3DS (You always need a Zelda fix.)
So, yeah. Part of the reason I've been slacking on the above games is that I've been playing another game with this little guy:
Yes, that is a recently acquired Game Boy Micro, and inside of it, a copy of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. GBA games look amazing on a Micro, and I have rediscovered just how excellent FFTA is. Makes me wonder why I ever stopped playing. This Game Boy Micro has become my new sidekick. I shall call him...Peter?
My take on Link and Fi!
Yes, I have finished The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. And it was magnificent. Seriously, I am firmly in the camp that would rate the game a 10. I loved everything about the game: the immersive controls, the engaging story, the puzzles, the characters, the genius dungeons and their bosses, Fi. I loved it all. Hell, this was the fastest I've ever completed a Zelda game, so that says something. I just had to keep playing it whenever I could. I have so many more older games in my backlog, but the latest Zelda adventure took precedence, as it should. Every Zelda game I play always reminds me why I love the series so much, and I really think Skyward Sword has moved the series forward without taking too many steps back. Like I said before, there are no bad Zelda games, and anyone that says so just has Ocarina-nostalgia blinders on. Bottom line, Skyward Sword is definitely one of the greatest games of this generation, and I can't wait to see what Nintendo does with the next game. Also, that final battle was bad-ass.
Alright, time for my Skyward Sword bullets!
- Favorite Dungeons: 3,4, and 5 (Seriously, 3 of the best dungeons in the whole series!)
- Favorite Boss: Koloktos (Pure awesome.)
- Favorite Item: The Beetle ( So dang useful!)
- Favorite Side Character: Groose (Just when I thought I had him pegged...)
So in case you didn't notice, you'll only get Skyward Sword love from me. And now, the Ballad of the Goddess:
Alright! We're back after a bit of a holiday break. You know how it goes. My backlog has grown a bit bigger due to a few new games acquired as gifts, but I did manage to finish a couple of games before that. In my anticipation for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, I still needed to beat the last console Zelda game, Twilight Princess. And I did it. And it was pretty good. Let's be honest, every Zelda game has its praisers and complainers, but in my opinion there are no bad Zelda games (CD-i gems aside). Yes, Twilight Princess has one of the slowest starts ever, but it finishes strong, and Midna has become one of my favorite characters in a video game. Seriously, she's great. Pretty good final battle, too. My favorite dungeons: Goron Mines, Temple of Time, and City in the Sky.
After I finished Twilight Princess, I was still on a bit of a Zelda high, so I went ahead and pushed through Phantom Hourglass. When I stopped playing years ago I was more than halfway done with the game, but the Temple of the Ocean King was kind of bumming me out. But my Zelda high would not subside unless I beat another game, so I did it and in the end I quite enjoyed myself. Sure, people complained about the stylus control, but I thought it worked, especially using items. And it's a pretty epic game for a handheld. Now I've just got to start (and finish) Spirit Tracks!
So strike two great Zelda games off my backlog, and soon hopefully three, as I am really close to finishing Skyward Sword (love love love the game)! I am the hero of legend!

I currently have fairly heavy (57 oz) Montrail Blue Ridge GTX hiking boots. I've read how lots of people prefer trail runners instead of boots for their lower weight and comparable ankle support. I'm very interested in moving to trail runners.
That said, is there a pack weight those who use trail runners would instead wear boots?
My concern is that I carry ~10 lbs of photography gear (tripod, camera body, 2-3 lenses, filters, batteries, etc.), so even if I do reduce my standard backpacking gear significantly, boots would still be a better option unless I can get under X lbs total. What is X? Assume fairly rocky terrain in the Sierras.

Pack weight if irrelevant for me. I also don't haul 80 lbs loads though.
I carried 43 lbs in the Sierra in trail runners just fine. I've worn boots with a 20 lbs load because the terrain dictated that I do so.Jan 24, 2010 at 6:42 pm #1565944

It will depend more on the terrain than the weight for me as I am rarely over 25lbs now. Any sort of scrambling and I use a leather boot to protect the feet. Groomed trails I use trail runners based on the above weight proximity. I would use a higher cut, stiffer shoe if I was into the mid 30's or higher I suspect. That may or may not mean a more traditional boot.Jan 24, 2010 at 6:54 pm #1565948

When I first started backpacking I had to wear boots(Montrail torre) because I would roll my ankle several times on a trip with lighter footwear. It didn't hurt at first but after a while I would start feeling it.
When I started lightening my pack weight I went to mid height trail runners and didn't have much of the same problem. I contributed it to the the lighter pack.
A few weekend ago I did a overnight with a pack full of winter gear probably weighed 35 lbs. or more. Which was my traditional 3 season pack weight before going UL. I also wore low height trail runners on that trip and never rolled my ankle. I guess I built some muscle in my legs and that took care of the problem.
A good pair of boots allthough not the most durable are Montrail Cirrus GTX. That was the last footwear I would consider boots that I have worn. They provided just as much support as the Torres but at a much lighter weight. They are no longer made but I see them from time to time on closeouts and sales. I did a seach and found them on Mammothgear.com for $75.

On the trail, I wouldn't wear boots unless I got into pack weights that I frankly just wouldn't carry – like over 60 lbs. Off the trail, I can see going to boots (light boots, though, nothing over 3 lbs/pr) if it was going to be a lot of talus and scree and I'd be carrying 40 lbs or so. And for me, it's not about the ankle support – I don't give much credence to ankle support anyway in any boot you can comfortably walk in. It's about sole stiffness under the arch and the ability of the sole to to keep sharp points from making my feet sore. I've done a lot of off-trail in the Sierra in trail runners, and with a pack up to 30 lbs it's okay, especailly the nice slabby stuff – but talus and big loads would push me into light boots.Jan 25, 2010 at 6:41 pm #1566229

No amount of weight would make me wear boots.
But I have pretty strong ankles.
Trail Runners for on trail.
Approach shoes like La Sportiva Exum Ridge for off trail.
I even do summer snow in these plus a pair of Katoolas.
Only serious cold weather snow and ice would make me use boots.Jan 25, 2010 at 6:59 pm #1566235

On trail I wear trail runners.
For kicking steps in hard snow, extensive scree skiing,
or lots of boulder fields, boots. Trail runners don't
hold up and don't protect toes from turning boulders
or step kicking.Jan 25, 2010 at 8:57 pm #1566260

Shoes -> boots when I want to kick things :-)… weight I carry not a factor.
The one thing weight would do is encourage me to switch from my normal ultra flexible sole shoes (inov-8, vibram five fingers) to something with more arch support. A few years ago I had to carry a heavyweight backpacker's pack while he helped his daughter out. A couple miles with 80lb made my feet really tired.

I like Dave Olsen's answer, too. I would probably switch to boots in the Sierras around 45 lbs, though, just based on the odds that I'd be scrambling on some rocks at some point and would want the stiffer sole to protect the bottom of my feet.Jan 25, 2010 at 9:54 pm #1566281
> I'd be scrambling on some rocks at some point and would want the stiffer sole
> to protect the bottom of my feet.
But do you need boots to get the stiffer soles? I have found quite a few low-cut joggers (generic term) with quite soft soles, and quite a few with stiff soles.
That doesn't answer the Q of whetehr feet need protecting from rocks etc. Many walkers wear Vibram five-fingers; many walkers here in Oz wear Dunlop Volleys. Both have extremely soft soles, but their wearers seem quite happy with them.
(Bonus point: Dunlop Volleys (<$20) really drive devotees of big heavy boots up the wall! They also irritate the major leather boot companies.)

I've been trying out various footwear (hiking sandals, running shoes, trail runners, walking shoes, lightweight boots) that I already own, and find that my midweight leather boots are more comfortable and allow me to go further without blisters. I have a set of new lightweight trail runners that I'll try later this week or early next week, but so far the midweight leather boots are still my choice of footwear for any load. I was hoping it would be different, and maybe further testing will prove otherwise, but so far my feet are saying they prefer boots.Jan 26, 2010 at 9:09 am #1566355

I have found that the lighter the shoe, the more agile I am. With boots I occassionaly "trip." I don't fall, but it causes a stutter step. Doesn't happen with light shoes.
When hiking on fields of volcanic rock (common in some desert areas), the sharp rocks tear up the soles of light shoes. This doesn't hurt my feet, but does shorten the life of the shoe.
I will never hike in boots again, other than snow. And this year I hope to do some experimenting with Gore-Tex runners and several types of sock systems/gaiters in snow. We shall see if that works out.Jan 26, 2010 at 10:34 am #1566393

I've been backpacking in trail runners for many years. Though I can no longer imagine carrying a 40+ pound pack, even at that weight, I would continue to wear trail runners.
Some may tell you that boots provide better ankle support, but I haven't found that to be the case. I suppose if you are climbing hard packed snow, you might be able to kick better steps with boots, but I'd rather carry my lightweight Camp ice axe and chop steps and keep the weight off my feet.
Agility and keeping the weight off of your feet are huge benefits of wearing trail runners. In 2005 on my JMT thru-hike I met several people coming over Forester Pass (on snow) with sandals and they were doing just fine.Jan 26, 2010 at 11:07 am #1566402

I think a lot depends on how strong your ankles are and how careful you hike. If you have weaker ankles, then stiffer boots makes sense. A lot of lightweight boots are stiff, though, so there isn't an exact, one to one correspondence. With lighter shoes, you often have less protection against rocks. This requires more care when hiking. I personally only use boots in the snow. I've tried various lightweight boots (or shoes) but nothing provided the slush protection and ability to kick steps like my current pair of midsize, all leather boots. To be fair, I've had lighter boots, but they didn't fit me well.Jan 26, 2010 at 2:18 pm #1566467
YAMABUSHI !BPL Member
I wouldn't say a pack weight on its own is my indicating factor, it would be purpose and season. If I'm carrying Rock&Ice gear I'm probably wearing automatic crampon compatible boots hence the necessity of boots. Winter climbing necessitates boots for warmth, kicking steps, etc. Summer time can be the same gear weight but not require boots. My ropes alone weigh 12.9 lbs so that plus biners, pro, etc is stout but boots wouldn't help with the weight. STRONG ANKLES AND FEET DO!Jan 26, 2010 at 2:38 pm #1566478
Hi Eugene
> my midweight leather boots are more comfortable and allow me to go further without blisters.
That is probably a function of how wide your footwear is, rather than what it weighs. Narrow shoes => blisters.

I used to do a lot of climbing in Washington and British Columbia. For a lot of these trips I was carrying 70 to 80 pounds of gear, food and climbing equipment. From about 1975 on, I almost invariable used running shoes (remember the Nike Waffle Trainers?) for trail approaches and also on mild off trail hiking. Never felt the need for boots until we got to the rock, snow and ice level.Jan 26, 2010 at 6:34 pm #1566581

On Saturday, State Representative Carla Blanchard Dartez (D-La.) lost her re-election bid to Republican challenger Joe Harrison in a heated and controversial run-off. Yet the largest newspaper in Louisiana, The Times-Picayune (TP), chose to bury it as an afterthought in its coverage of the statewide election results. The Times-Picayune online edition, NOLA.com, placed this paragraph at the end of its story.
The only two incumbent lawmakers to lose in either chamber were Democrats. Chris Hazel dispatched Rep. Rick Farrar of Pineville in the 27th District primary. Challenger Joe Harrison topped Rep. Carla Blanchard Dartez of Morgan City to claim the 51st District seat in the runoff.
The TP made no mention of the 'Buckwheat' racial slur or the other controversies which surrounded this incumbent Democrat. Why is that?
Fellow NewsBuster Richard Newcomb first reported this story and told of the failure of major news outlets to mention that Dartez was a Democrat.
Last week, State Representative Carla Blanchard Dartez (D-La.) made a particularly controversial closing comment to a former civil rights worker. Dartez, in ending a phone call with Hazel Boykin, said "Talk to you later, Buckwheat." Hazel Boykin is the mother of Jerome Boykin, president of the Terrebonne Parish NAACP chapter.
Mrs. Boykin and her son were offended by the racial slur and her son called for the defeat of Dartez in the upcoming run-off election. Despite support from local black clergy and other Democrats, Boykin's demands to remove Dartez from office appealed to voters and she was defeated.
The media loves a story about racial controversy, particularly in southern states. For example, the "Jena 6" case, built around a simple assault charge in a small town - in Louisiana no less - was considered newsworthy. So why was there no media coverage of this political defeat, mostly due to the racial slur controversy, other than this brief piece on the USAToday blog? Where was the leading story in the MSM?
Could the MSM have a double standard for people caught in these situations? Just ask Don Imus or Senator Trent Lott (R-Miss.).

Of the 18 sailing divisions at the Regatta, only 15 boats were able to send drivers to the Final Challenge, making the odds of winning very strong. "Congratulations to Ben Nossiter and his crew for an outstanding effort over the weekend. Audi continues to be proud to support competitive sailing in Australia and I am very pleased to be presenting the all new Audi A4 sedan as the winning prize," said Mr Joerg Hofmann, Managing Director, Audi Australia.
Ironically, Nossiter's son Anthony, or 'Nocka' as he is known in the sailing fraternity, is a member of the Australian Sailing Team which is proudly sponsored by Audi, so he regularly drives Audi vehicles. Currently ranked ninth in the world in his nominated Finn class, Nocka will represent Australia at his third Olympic Games at Qingdao in Beijing in August.
Audi ambassador and Winter Olympic medallist Zali Steggall hosted the Prizegiving evening with Audi's managing director, Joerg Hofmann, while Middle Harbour Yacht Club past Commodore Ian Box, presented the divisional trophies.

Open Arms(2009)
(A book in the Mystery and the Minister's Wife series)
A novel by Traci DePree
Kate and Paul Hanlon have their hands full when they take over the youth group at Faith Briar Church. Though it's been years since their own children were teenagers, they are excited about the challenge, but when Kate receives an anonymous letter from a girl who simply calls herself Mouse, she has a whole new reason to get to know the kids of Copper Mill. According to the letter, Mouse is alone, afraid, and has made a terrible mistake. Kate is determined to help her as soon as she can figure out who it is! A host of possible suspects leads Kate all over town, but can she find the frightened girl - and help her face the future - before it's too late? Meanwhile, Kate is busy organizing an after-prom party to keep the kids in town safe, and she and Paul are counseling a young couple struggling with their marriage. As they help the couple rediscover their love for each other, everyone is reminded that anything is possible with open arms and an open heart.

It's good to be back in Urbina. The air is thin and cool, the population is sparse, and the call of the donkeys rings like a reliable alarm clock early in the morning. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the llamas, alpacas, and those in between. We are staying at Rodrigo's house that, at 3,600 meters (about 12,000 feet), sits at the highest point of the railroad. When the sky is clear, you can see Chimborazo, the tallest mountain in Ecuador, sitting as a backdrop behind the farms that cover the land.
Unlike the standoffish llamas, the donkeys are quite social and friendly. I try to visit them in the morning and evening to greet them and rub their ears. As I approach, they know what is coming and prepare a stance accordingly.
Rodrigo always has many projects that he is juggling. It's amazing that he even finds time to sleep. Here he is standing in front of a hut on which he is installing a new thatch roof. This hut will be a home once it is complete.
His goal is to always build as ecologically as possible. This roof is made from a quick-growing plant called paga that is cut only a stones throw away.
It only took one more day of work to finish. Upon completion, Rodrigo's workers celebrated with a loud blow of a horn.
I tried to celebrate as well, but ended up with only tepid squeaks and a horn full of spit.

So my first attempt at live blogging Chargers training camp didn't work out so well. I thought I had all the kinks ironed out; apparently I didn't. I apologize if you came through hoping to get all of the exciting details as the action unfolded…I'll do better next time, I promise.
I did manage to take some notes while observing the team's first public session – I'll share those with you now:
Jamal Williams had no knee brace and seemed to be doing just fine out there on the football field. In fact, I'd frequently see Williams offering up technique advice to the younger linemen. As a whole when you see the guys on the Defensive line, you quickly realize how big they are. This is certainly a very large and powerful group. Watching Luis Castillo and Jacques Cesaire go through drills, it becomes readily apparent just how much quicker and more fluid they are compared to the other guys. The question is; are we lacking athleticism on the D-line? We have big powerful bodies, but only Castillo and Cesarie (and to a lesser extent Ryon Bingham) have quick feet and good athleticism. While it's not a pressing need, I would like to see our D-line generate a good pass rush on a more consistent basis. But getting back to the size among the D-line – Lamar Divens is freaking HUGE! Dude goes about 330 and might be the widest body on the whole team. Talk about a big free agent pickup! Hopefully he sticks around on the practice squad if nothing else. Divens has that prototype nose tackle physique – hopefully he likes getting his hands dirty because I want to see a lot of him in the preseason.
The bread and butter of our defense is in the linebackers and what a group the Chargers have. Obviously the expectations are high for Anthony Waters this year but Brandon Siler could be a sleeper. Everyone has seen what he can do on special teams, but if his hips keep improving and he continues to work on his drops into coverage, he could push for serious playing time. Siler brings the wood and is as wide as a Mack truck. Shawne Merriman is obviously a favorite among fans; I chuckle to myself whenever I see him running around with his helmet off. He's a superstar, but at least he enjoys it!
Vincent Jackson is developing into a fine NFL Wide Receiver. He is ridiculously quick out of his breaks and was catching the ball with authority. He's going to have to share catches with Antonio Gates and Chris Chambers, but Jackson might be our biggest YAC threat. He is powerful and athletic with a quickness not normally seen out of a guy that size. Dude is 6'5" 240lbs and can fly.
Philip Rivers looked great…almost to the point where you forget that he even have knee surgery a few months ago. I don't want to call it a non-issue, but Rivers looked fantastic and it's a testament to his passion and love for his team and the game.
Antoine Cason drew huge applause from the crowd when he came up with his first interception of camp. He has a solid frame with good muscularity. He looks like he'll fill in perfectly for the departed Drayton Florence.
Ladainian Tomlinson was quick and looked like the knee wasn't bothering him at all. That's great news for Chargers fans. He wont take the field during the preseason so he'll have time to get that knee up to 110 percent for the season opener.
Another fan favorite is Darren Sproles. Everyone has an opinion on Darren – I personally been a little critical of the guy. But I'm willing to give Sproles his fair shot to win me over. It seems that Norv understands Sproles more than he did a year ago, and so with this understanding he can find ways in which to maximize Sproles' chance to make a big play. I'm looking forward to seeing how Coach Turner uses #43 this season.
Other notes:
AJ Smith was on the field observing his team like an architect surveys his construction site.
Jeromey Clary is still the starting right tackle.
KassimOsgood had a TD catch that the crowd applauded loudly for.
Mike Scrifres was killing the ball – 60+ yard punt after 60+ yard punt.
Ron Rivera's making his mark on how the defense practices; he splits the outside and inside linebackers up and works with the inside guys, teaching technique and pointing out mental mistakes to his players.

Being over weight is actually onerous on your knees. The
knees take most of the burden that the body carries and this can be simply
approach an excessive amount of pressure and stress on the joints, particularly
the knees. If you'll start off simply a bit of the additional pounds this may
decrease the pressure greatly.

Here's my take on the whole '5 foods to lose weight' thing
List the 5 foods you know you have to eat for weight loss. They can be any combination of the daily things you eat that either A) support your weight loss efforts, or B) You need to eat in order to NOT feel like you are on some crazy restrictive diet that is slowly ruining your life and making you a miserable person to be around 😉
Here's my list:
1- Protein – I like to have around 100 grams a day, and without supplements this takes a little practice
2 – Water – OK, not technically a food, but it helps keep my head clear and I can tell when I forget to drink enough.
3 – Espresso in the morning – Probably the only thing that keeps me from committing terrible crimes
4 – Guinness – Want to make me VERY aware that I am dieting? Then take this away from me. I don't need a drink every night, but knowing I CAN have pint if I WANT TO goes a long way in making responsible eating manageable.
5 – Mint chocolate chip ice-cream – If I had to choose between having Ice-cream or abs, I would go buy bigger pants right now. The ice-cream would win. Luckily I don't have to make that choice. I just have to keep the serving size realistic.
That's my 5 foods. If I keep these all as priorities and acceptable options then weight loss and weight maintenance are much easier for me. If I don't keep these in check, then weight loss becomes difficult and I become miserable, making me feel 'restricted' which usually ends with me breaking down after a week or two, since I miss eating the foods and having the drinks I like the most.
I'd like you to take some time and identify your 5 foods. They can be any combination of foods you feel you 'need' while losing weight (like my protein and water) and foods you 'want' in order to feel human (everything else on my list).
Once you have your list of 5 foods, here's what you do next:
Tally up the Calories that come from your 5 foods. Feel free to round up.
For me this comes to:
1 – 100 grams of protein X 4 Calories per gram, plus a bunch of heavy rounding = 500 Calories
2 – Zero Calories
3 – Zero Calories
4 – 120 Calories, but I'll round to 150 to be safe (Calories in Beer vary from country to country so don't take this as gospel)
5 – 250 Calories, but I'll round to 350 to be safe (Depends on the brand)
Next subtract these calories from your daily calorie goal.
So my 'must haves' come to 1,000 calories. This means I have anywhere from 800 to 1,400 calories every day for other food. And remember, it's not like I have ice-cream and Guinness EVERY day, so sometimes this number is lower.
The bottom line is now I only have to worry about the 'other foods' I eat in a day. And it's much easier to be good knowing that the foods I really want to have, I'm allowed to have. No feeling deprived.
Identifying your 'must haves' helps keep everything in perspective as you try to manage your weight.

The Football Association have launched their own investigation after visiting fans wrecked one of the bar areas in the concourse of the North Stand and stole food and money in an incident that marred United's 2-0 win.
Eight catering staff were trapped inside a food kiosk and had to barricade themselves in a store room for around 25 minutes as fans broke in. Stewards on the pitch also had food thrown at them during the violence.
A South Yorkshire Police statement released on Wednesday morning said: "South Yorkshire Police can confirm a disorder occurred during the first half of the Barnsley versus Manchester United match at Oakwell last night.
"Police and both football clubs were disappointed by the conduct of a minority of fans.
"Police responded quickly and effectively to a spontaneous disorder caused by a small group of people that had gathered near to the central bar on the North Stand.
"Officers in protective uniform were deployed to restore order, disperse the crowd and ensure the safety of staff inside the area."
Two men aged 22 and 24 were arrested for public order offences, a 26 year-old-man was arrested for theft and a 32-year-old man was arrested for throwing a missile onto a football pitch. All four men are from Manchester.
In a separate incident, three Barnsley fans were arrested for running on to the pitch during play.
The FA are awaiting the report from their crowd control advisor present at the game, as well as from referee Chris Foy.Reuse content

ArtMinds® Hobby Cork Roll is rated out of 5 by 8.
Rated 2 out of 5 by Tori_F from So So - Not the best Purchased for 3 DIY bulletin board projects that needed to be cut to size. Cork is very thin and tears easily. Will need to layer 2-3 pieces together for tacks to hold.
Date published: 2017-04-30
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kaikyn from Cork works great! I used this to make a customized cork board and it worked great! Cutting the cork was easy and simple. Very few parts fell apart while cutting, I was amazed. Made no mess, just be sure you put something heavy on it to flatten it out while drying.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Cherokee19 from Expected something different The material is really thin and breaks easily, but it worked out fine for the project I was doing. I would recommend making sure you have extra in case of any tears when working with this cork roll.
Date published: 2017-04-15
Rated 4 out of 5 by Plangal from It's cork... I just saw all the reviews that talk about how delicate or poor quality it is. I used this to make a pinnable travel map, and it was fine. Here's the thing I learned--cork like this (or any unsealed cork) dries out. So, if you try to cut it, it WILL crumble. That is, unless you wet or steam it, in which case, it will work fine. I used my clothes steamer to steam it prior to cutting and had very few issues.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from Cork Roll I bought this for a specific project .... it didn't work for what I needed. It is very thin and breaks if you try to cut it. I'm sure it would work fine if you were using it as is, but wouldn't recommend if you are purchasing and have to alter the size at all.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Large framed craft board With a 40% off coupon, I purchased a large glassed frame. I purchased a rolled up cork board to be glued on top of a thin white "board" so you can use stick pins in it to hang up crafts. To make it really cute for my grand daughter's room, I covered the cork with a printed calico fabric as I had many remnants and chose one that fit nicely into the frame. On the back to hold it all together, I bought those small pins that hook down on the back edges so it is secure when the pins go in to hold the crafts. My inspiration came from seeing one much smaller in a showcase add for over $100.00. I paid less than $50.00 and it is adorable!

Rated 1 out of 5 by Anonymous from Cork I bought this cork to make a cutting board for fabric/pattern pieces. It's SUPER cheap quality! If you press too hard on it you could punch your finger through on accident. You have to be very delicate with it or it will fall apart in your hands. I DO NOT recommend this product
Date published: 2015-07-05
Rated 2 out of 5 by Anonymous from Great value but horrible quality. I bought this because I wanted to make a custom organization board on my wall. I needed at least four different sized cork boards so I figured this would be cheaper and easier to get the exact sizes and shapes that I wanted. It was very easy to cut like the description says, but it is so thin that: 1. I can tear it apart with my hands. 2. I accidentally dropped a sharpie on it while it was laying on the floor and it ripped a huge hole in the center of the board. 3. I put a piece of scotch tape on the corner, and when I went to remove the tape the entire corner came off. Because the cork board was rolled up, it also does not flatten at all. If you put something heavy on it to try and flatten it, it will put a hole in it. And when I tried to hang it on the wall, it just keeps falling off because it keeps trying to roll itself up. I am going back to the store to get four separate boards, because the frustration is not worth it.

Latin Lover
Pete Cecere must have one sick crib. Evidently, he designed his pumpkin-colored home in western Virginia so it could house his collection of more than 12,000 pieces of folk art -- way impressive considering that the Louvre in Paris currently displays about 35,000 pieces.
In 2005, Cecere generously donated 1,000 works from his famed hoard to the ASU Art Museum. In honor of his contribution, 60 pieces from Bolivia, Paraguay, El Salvador, and other countries were selected for display in the "Everyday Miracles: Latin American Folk Art From the Cecere Collection" exhibit. The show examines the impact of Christianity and the Conquistadors on indigenous peoples.

text: TUCSON, Ariz. and SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Reinforcing its commitment to promote the use of renewable energy, Tucson Electric Power (TEP) has modified an existing agreement with SunPower Corp. (NASDAQ: SPWR) to incorporate six megawatts of its new C7 Tracker technology into a planned facility that will also include two megawatts of SunPower's T5 Solar Roof Tile technology. The SunPower C7 Tracker is a solar photovoltaic tracking system that concentrates the sun's power seven times and, when at scale, can deliver the lowest levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) for utility-scale solar power plants. "TEP is committed to maintaining its leadership role in the development of solar energy in Southern Arizona by utilizing new and innovative technologies," said Carmine Tilghman, director of renewable resources and programs at TEP and its parent company, UNS Energy Corp. (NYSE: UNS). "SunPower's C7 Tracker provides us a great opportunity to expand our solar development while providing our customers with cost-effective renewable energy. "This project, which will be owned by TEP, will assist the company in reaching its goal of incorporating more than 200 megawatts of solar energy into its system by the end of 2013," Tilghman added. "TEP is leading the way by utilizing proven solar technology with the best economics over the long term," said Howard Wenger, SunPower president, regions. "The SunPower C7 Tracker leverages two decades of experience in reliable tracking systems to deliver bankable technology, guaranteed performance and the greatest return on investment for utility customers." The C7 Tracker combines single-axis tracking technology with rows of parabolic mirrors, reflecting light onto 22.8 percent efficient SunPower Maxeon™ solar cells, which are the world's most efficient commercially available solar cells. Using mirrors to reduce the number of solar cells required to generate electricity lowers the LCOE by up to 20 percent compared to competing technologies. For example, a 400-megawatt C7 Tracker power plant requires less than 70 megawatts of SunPower solar cells.

Anthropology and Egalitarianism: Ethnographic Encounters from Monticello to Guinea-Bissau
€ 24,99
Lieferbar innert 2 Wochen
Dezember 2010
BeschreibungAnthropology and Egalitarianism is an artful and accessible introductionto key themes in cultural anthropology. Writing in a deeply personal style and usingmaterial from his fieldwork in three dramatically different locales -- Indonesia, West Africa, and Monticello, the historic home of Thomas Jefferson -- Eric Gableshows why the ethnographic encounter is the core of the discipline's method and thebasis of its unique contribution to understanding the human condition. Gable weavestogether vignettes from the field and discussion of major works as he explores thedevelopment of the idea of culture through the experience of cultural contrast, anthropology's fraught relationship to racism and colonialism, and other enduringthemes.
InhaltsverzeichnisPreface and Acknowledgments Introduction: Culture by Contrast and Theory in Anthropology; 1. Supping with Savages; 2. Standing in a Line; 3. Jefferson's Ardor; 4. The Colonialist's Dress Code; 5. Taking Pictures in the Field, or the Anthropologist's Dress Code; 6. Beyond Belief; 7. The Sex Life of Savages; Conclusion: Tending to Nature, Tending to Culture, or Is Anthropology History? Notes on Sources; References; Index
PortraitEric Gable teaches anthropology at the University of Mary Washington. He is author (with Richard Handler) of The New History in an Old Museum: Creating the Past at Colonial Williamsburg.
Pressestimmen"Among the most eloquent and deeply reflexive, confessional [works] I have read in some time... [A]ccessible, conversational, and at times disarmingly colloquial, [it is] precisely the kind of work that should be taught at the undergraduate level." Liam Murphy, co-author of A History of Anthropological Theory "A major work of scholarship ... [with] the potential to become a classic work of anthropology that will be read and debated for years to come." Paul Stoller, author of The Power of the Between: An Anthropological Odyssey
