Best Of :: People & Places
It's difficult not to notice them. The parasailers floating through the air above Fort Lauderdale's coastline are often sandwiched uncomfortably between propeller plane advertisements like "Midget wrestling tonight! 2-4-1!" Are they enjoying themselves as they sit on their kite-elevated benches? Sadly, the answer is "Nope." Here's how parasailing actually plays out: You broker your para-deal with some dude in a faux cabana shack who's costumed a bit too much like a lifeguard. Next, you make uncomfortable chitchat with the boat's driver — a man who spends his days assuring obnoxious tourists (that's you) that they will be safe yet thrilled throughout their approaching ten-minute "experience." Then you sit on a bench, white knuckles gripping the side rails, preparing yourself for an adrenaline overload that will never arrive. You are lifted, slowly and carefully, to look out over a panoramic stretch of hideous and newly constructed high-rises, and then cautiously placed back down, with all the care of returning a baby kitten to its dresser drawer. And that, you realize, is how you blew $40. God, you're a chump.
Of all the people who ought to have learned an object lesson from the dramatic fall from grace of Palm Beach area Congressman Mark Foley, it is Tim Mahoney. After all, he owed his ascendancy to Congress entirely to Foley's sex scandal. Once elected, Mahoney could campaign for reelection in 2008 with all the advantages of incumbency — provided he could keep his pecker out of the news. But that proved too tough a task. Mahoney allegedly paid a former mistress more than $121,000 so she wouldn't go public with their affair. Soon, another paramour surfaced, Mahoney's wife filed for divorce, and judging by her legal filings, she's intent on making her ex's 15th minute of fame as embarrassing as possible. By this time next year, Mahoney will no longer even be a "notorious" sleazebag — just a sleazebag, period.
"At night it gets darker out here than in other places," he begins. "It's a yawning, special kind of dark, deepened by acres of cane so still and quiet they can keep secrets." It's a story about Pahokee, the sugarcane town torn by gang violence—and the death of the captain of the football team. It was one of the best Palm Beach Post stories of 2008. And it was written by Michael LaForgia. He might not win those in-depth reporting or public service awards, but the young police reporter does something even more impressive: He manages to sprinkle a bit of the art and craft of storytelling into everything he writes. Whether it's a telling detail in a brief about a murder or a poetic lead like the Pahokee story, he does the things that help readers connect to stories. In a culture in which reporters are asked to do more with less and editors speak only in inches, LaForgia seems to actually care about the quality of his prose. If more writers did that, the newspaper industry wouldn't be as dark and bleak as those acres of cane.
In this era of media staff cuts, a midsized city like Lake Worth is liable to slip through the news cracks — unless a tenacious, tireless someone hustles for the skinny at City Hall. That's Wes Blackman. His blog
is required reading for the conscientious citizen of central Palm Beach County. A Michigan native who moved to Lake Worth in 1989, Blackman is an urban planner with particular interest in historic structures. He serves on numerous planning and landmark preservation boards, but that doesn't stop him from castigating city officials. Commissioners Suzanne Mulvehill and Cara Jennings are his favorite targets. This blog ain't one for fancy graphics. Blackman's idea of an exciting image is a scanned item from the commission agenda. But Blackman's enthusiasm for his subject is as infectious as it is admirable. He pores through the agenda and backup material in advance of commission meetings, pulling out the most interesting items and adding the context one needs to understand an issue. It's a fascinating, meticulously detailed study of one city's political theater. Blackman, who lost a bid for the commission in a March 2007 runoff by fewer than 200 votes, has still found a way to have his perspective shape city policy, and Lake Worth is better for it.
Yeah, we'll have to go with Jack on this one after he crushed his opponents to become mayor of Fort Lauderdale. The former state legislator has the common man's touch. He's an old jock with a big family. And he looks, in a certain light, just like a Neanderthal. How much more common can you get? But under that heavy brow is a shrewd operator, sort of the caveman lawyer of Broward County. He plays all the angles just right, and while he's no angel, he always manages somehow to keep his hands clean. And now he's won this great honor — but watch out, it comes with a cautionary note. During the past few years, we've endorsed Ken Keechl (recently disgraced in the Mutual Benefits scandal), Ben Graber (sold out and washed up), and Steve Gonot (criminally charged and removed from office). Seiler will surely have a bright future — so long as he can survive the "Best Of" curse.
If and when our country degenerates into a Hobbesian nightmare where the poor and hungry have revolted against the rich in a swift, brutal redistribution of wealth, the first audacious target for the angry proletariat with discerning taste will be the new Trump International Hotel & Tower. A monolith of ostentation at the center of Fort Lauderdale beach, the local Trump Tower symbolizes everything about the indulgent high-end development boom that helped America into the worst economic quagmire in generations and earned South Florida the moniker the Repo Riviera. But damn, that building is gorgeous! Designed by architect Michael Graves, the blue and yellow, 24-story curvilinear structure — which occupies no less than two acres of beachfront property — sets a new standard for luxury while still paying tribute to the region's art deco roots. The building itself features a 5,000-square-foot spa, an ultra-high-tech gym, a sixth-floor roof deck with a mosaic-tiled pool (replete with cabanas), and almost 300 rooms and suites with marble baths, oversized windows looking out at the ocean, and some of the most expensive beds you can buy. So when the weak social contract that binds society fails, look for the beautiful blue edifice by the sparking sea, where life will be anything but nasty, brutish, and short.

Sailing Hawk Channel at night?
I read a few posts suggesting not to do. What is your actual experience sailing from Miami to Key West? It looks like the wind is coming behind us and going outside the channel is not an option.
Any thoughts :)
Re: Sailing Hawk Channel at night?
It's a bit of a risk, for sure... Particularly the northern section down to around Key Largo, the channel gets pretty narrow in spots thru there, and is defined largely by unlit daybeacons on steel girders, with the lighted aids spaced pretty far apart... You'll be relying heavily on your chartplotter, for certain...
Further on down, the channel widens considerably, there's considerably more margin for error... I'd certainly try to begin the trip in daylight, however, if possible... And, I wouldn't want to try the upper portion without a 2 or 3 million candlepower searchlight handy...
Another risk, which is not inconsiderable, is the likelihood of snagging a crab pot... Depending upon the season, the Hawk Channel in places can be infested with them...
Bottom line, however, it's certainly do-able... However, I'd be much more comfortable suggesting it can be done at night to those who have at least done the Hawk Channel previously... Doing it for the first time, at night, most definitely increases the risk...
What's the rush?
Well, I know the answer to that one, of course... Only times I've run the Hawk Channel at night were in an effort to meet a schedule, or race a forecast change in the weather...
Re: Sailing Hawk Channel at night?
My hope is to get to Key West in 2 days without stopping to refuel before heading to Dry Tortugas. My Plan B is from Fort Lauderdale to stop at Key Largo, Marathon and then Key West. My fear is the uncertainty of the weather for late next week over Yucatan Channel. I am also working on Plan C just in case.
I can't be stuck in Key West waiting for weather window. Flying home and return to Key West when the weather is clear is just a pain and added cost I wanted to avoid.

Re: Sailing Hawk Channel at night?
We have taken this route a few times and think that if you leave miami during the day you would have no problem, as long as you can sail and not motor. The crab pots are the biggest risk and wouldn't want to catch one on the prop IMHO.
Re: Sailing Hawk Channel at night?
I do not understand why you would want to do that trip at night, nonstop.
If you were to go outside, there is a counter current that runs close to the reef and you can stay in 50 to 100 feet of water so you can pretty much run it on your sounder. Charts are quite accurate along the reef, and shipping must stay well out. You will have a steady wind without the interference that the structures along Hawk's Channel create and the channel currents can be difficult.
Of course, the inside passage can be done, but I'd stock up on Rolaids, if I were attempting it, day or night.
Re: Sailing Hawk Channel at night?
Don't know anything about Hawk Channel but have some experience running in the dark.
If you don't have much experience running at night I suggest you do some night time trial runs in waters that you are familiar with. Sounds like Hawk Channel can be a bit tricky, crab pots and all.
Paul T
Re: Sailing Hawk Channel at night?
I see very well at night as long as not much light pollution from the shore. My first time sailing at night in the Keys, I can't image it will be worse than Chesapeake bay or Maine for pots. Either way, we are too damn old not to be careful. :)
Re: Sailing Hawk Channel at night?
The hell with attempting to find any counter-current, I've never noticed it to be very significant, anyway... As soon as I see anything less than 150 feet or so on the sounder, I tend to fade a bit more to the left...
And, that would be in daylight...
Re: Sailing Hawk Channel at night?
Thanks Jon,
Thanks for the article. I will take this careful. The wind is calm now. According to NOAA, there is more wind (5 to 15 kn) to the south, we will sail further left may be 8 nm from the coast line. More easterly wind tomorrow (10 to 20 kn) till Wednesday. :)

Forest 3-4 Walsall
Nottingham Forest were beaten 4-3 by Walsall in the first round of the Capital One Cup this evening.
A hat-trick from Saddlers striker Tom Bradshaw helped the visitors to a victory which appeared to have slipped from their grasp after Michail Antonio came off the bench to score twice, restoring parity at 3-3 in injury time.
But, with the game looking destined for extra time, Kelvin Wilson conceded a penalty and Bradshaw made no mistake from the spot to send Walsall into the second round.
Bradshaw's goals put Walsall 2-0 up early in the first half before young Forest striker Tyler Walker scored to halve the deficit.
Walsall substitute Romaine Sawyers was the man to extend the away side's advantage to 3-1 on 79 minutes before Antonio's heroics gave Forest a lifeline.
Dougie Freedman brought Walker, Wilson, Chris Burke and Jamie Paterson into his starting 11.
Wilson, who was suspended for Friday's trip to Brighton, captained the side and was partnered by Jack Hobbs in central defence.
The Reds lined up in a diamond formation with Dorus de Vries in goal, Eric Lichaj and Danny Fox at full back, Michael Mancienne in defensive midfield with David Vaughan and Burke ahead of him in central midfield. Jamie Paterson played behind a strikeforce of Walker and Jamie Ward.
And the summer signing from Derby had a good chance to put Forest ahead on nine minutes when he met Walker's low cross at the near post, only to send the ball over the bar.
Walsall responded with an attack of their own and won a free-kick in a good shooting position when Hobbs felled Milan Lalkovic, earning the centre back a yellow card. Sam Mantom's set piece saw the ball deflect low off the Forest wall and towards de Vries' bottom corner, but the Dutchman managed to trap it at the base of his post.
A minute later, however, de Vries was beaten. Again Lalkovic was pivotal, sending the ball across the face of goal with a cross-cum-shot from the left to present Bradshaw with a tap-in.
And it was 2-0 shortly afterwards when Mantom's cross from the left saw the ball loop up off a Forest defender and into the middle of the goalmouth. Bradshaw did well to turn it over the line.
Freedman opted for a change in shape as Ward came into attacking midfield with Paterson drifting left and Burke right.
It was Ward who offered Forest's first attempt of reducing the arrears. He received the ball from Lichaj, who had made a strong run forward from right back, but could only sent it wide from 20 yards.
The game then hit a slight lull as the visitors looked to settle the tempo of the match, but it was they who next threatened.
On 29 minutes Bradshaw received a low cross from the right, turned away from goal and offloaded the ball to Kieron Morris just inside the area. Morris opted for a first-time effort but could only fire it well wide.
Forest came within inches of making it 2-1 a minute later when Burke's low, drilled ball across goal flicked up off a Walsall man and on to the crossbar.
But Freedman's men didn't have to wait much longer as, on 32 minutes, Paterson's low cross following a short corner found Walker at the back post, who made no mistake in turning the ball home from close range.
Walsall quickly set about trying to restore their two-goal advantage, and they nearly did so with nine minutes to play in the half. Marauding left back Rico Henry played the ball to Lalkovic in the area. He showed terrific close control to fend off the approaches of Forest's defence, working a tight shooting angle. De Vries made a strong save at his near post.
Three minutes of added time were allocated at the end of the half and Forest came agonisingly close to scoring an equaliser before the whistle.
Ward's corner was headed back across goal by Mancienne and perfectly into Paterson's path. The former Walsall man volleyed the ball from eight yards but could only crash it off the post.
Walsall keeper Neil Etheridge punched the resultant corner away but The Reds kept the ball alive. Fox sprinted towards the edge of the area and struck a low shot towards goal, but Etheridge was equal to it and Forest went into the break 2-1 behind.
There were no changes for either side at the break and Forest began the second half on the front foot. Burke supplied Paterson in the area and the ex-Walsall man span away from his marker to buy space for a shot on his left foot. He struck the ball well but sent it a yard over the bar.
Walsall were forced into a change on 53 minutes as their captain Adam Chambers hobbled off with an injury. He was replaced by Sawyers, who had a chance to score shortly after his arrival following neat build-up play by the Saddlers. He could only curl the ball over the bar from the edge of the 'D'.
Burke was proving Forest's most potent attacking threat and he linked up with Paterson again shortly after the hour mark. The Scotsman slid the ball through for his team-mate but he struck the ball into the side-netting.
Next it was Burke's turn to have a go. He beat Henry by cutting in from the left but the Walsall keeper was equal to his strike from outside the area.
Freedman's next change saw Dexter Blackstock replace Paterson, but it was the visitors who attacked next. De Vries did well to push Mansom's low shot to safety.
The Reds boss then opted for an injection of raw pace by sending on Antonio and youngster Oliver Burke. They replaced Chris Burke and Ward.
But there was nothing the pair could do as, shortly after their introduction, Forest fell 3-1 behind.
De Vries could only parry Morris' powerful shot and The Reds failed to clear the ball from their area, presenting substitute Sawyers with the chance to lash it home from close range.
It didn't take Antonio long to make his mark, however. Almost immediately after the restart he picked up the ball on the left, raced past all on-comers and lashed the ball into the top corner from 25 yards.
The match was wide open and Walsall were refusing to bow down. Substitute Jordan Cook had a good chance to score with five minutes remaining but couldn't generate enough power on his shot, presenting de Vries with a comfortable save down at his near post.
Forest's dominance was increasing more and more as full-time approached, however, and the home side were given encouragement when five minutes of added time were indicated.
And they only needed one of those minutes to make it 3-3. It looked like the chance was gone when Walker's header was nodded off the line by Henry following a corner. But Hobbs' lashed effort towards goal kept the ball alive and Antonio was on hand to back-heel it over the line.
There was still plenty of added time left for either side to find a winner, with Forest looking far the more likely side to do so.
Antonio showed his threat yet again when he embarked on a powerful run down the left before fizzing the ball across goal. Sadly for The Reds, there was too much pace on it for them to benefit.
The fourth minute of added time presented substitute Burke with an opportunity to grab the headlines. Walker flicked the ball into the winger's path and his pace took him into the area. Burke appeared to be slightly off-balance, however, and he fired the ball wide, prompting supporters to prepare themselves for extra time.
But, in the dying seconds, Bradshaw drew a foul from Wilson in the area to give himself the chance of scoring the most dramatic of hat-trick goals. He smashed the ball home from the spot and there wasn't enough time for Forest to find another equaliser.

I was at the Dr's office last week in Barbourville in town..I was out side waiting to see the dr when i watched people get in their car while they were talking about geting their drugs filled to(sell) to the person in the car with them so if thats the case that means nothing is wronge with this person in the first place and the dr isnt doing his job..This DR IS HELPING TO KEEP DRUGS ON THE STREET..I understand that there are people that need pain meds But the DR's need to take the time to make sure they need them instead of running people through their office like cattle just to get their insurance cards dont you think!!!!The law needs to sit at these places and just watch the drug deals go down or maybe at the drug store even..(Just food for thought)!!Drug dealers are getting very Bold when they will sell to people right infrount of the public ive saw this more than i care for..

Here's my two cents for what it's worth. In my opinion Dr's are to blame for our society's drug problem. Hey let's prescribe OxyContin when we know little about it and it's addictivness. After everyone's pretty much hooked on something or another we got a drug problem that's so far out of hand it's unreal. Now they're trying to make and enforce laws well it's a little to late. If they weren't so gun ho about prescribing in the first place we might not have this problem.
#6 Aug 27, 2012
Thats right, every word that you have said is true. These druggies take up for each other. Wish they would catch everyone of them and don't let them out of jail the next day. I know a man that got arrested the other day and he is out and buying his kids dirt bikes and his wife had a boob job and neither one of them works. That tell me something.
#7 Aug 27, 2012
It takes that person to go to the doctors offices. To get the pills. If they are there to lie or whatever it takes to get a bottle. Then its not the doctors fault. I don't see a doctor out on the highway chasing people down and forcing them inside so they can write a prescription. Just because the pills are easy to get don't mean you haft to use them. And if that doctor is giving them out easy maybe that is why all of you are there.

First to answer your redundant comment about keeping Drug's away from your children...
If you want your "Children" to stay away from drugs, try this, Simply raise them up to use reasoning and logic in life. Teach them some common everyday knock around sense, and they'll most likely do alright.
If someones children are buying drugs, it's most likely caused from a life of verbal abuse, caused by religious fanaticism. Because, statistically, substance abuser's, Child Molester's, Teen pregnancies, spousal abuser's, not to mention Most, if not all, Hate Groups, are all among the RELIGIOUS.
So, don't you give me that "YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN GOD" crap.
Atheists clearly have the moral high ground over the Religious. It can easily be proven statistically, as well as generally. To tell me I have to have a celestial dictator watching me, in order to have a sense of morality, is an insult. I'm just not that stupid. Very sorry.

I am against drug abuse also but why blame the doctors and nurse practitioners? If they have legit evidence that backs the medications they write, why are they blamed for what the the pill poppers, druggies, and dealers do? I know for a fact that the offices around here are legit and have supporting evidence for their diagnosis and prescriptions or they would have been shut down by now. I don't get any kind of meds anywhere but if I did, it's my responsibility to not abuse it. But why blame drs and arnp's that spent years in college for their degrees? What about the pharmacies and pharmacutical companies that make and distribute the meds?
My two cents, bashing one or two local healthcare offices is not going to stop the drug flow so what's the point? These people work hard and pay dearly for their education to support their families and help others, they can't help what others do. My point, if I went to buy a brand new car and drag raced it up and down the highway at a 100 miles an hour and crashed it, is it the car lots fault because they made the vehicle accessible to me? Um no... The fault would be own my own ignorance. Just sayin.

If the doctor's office is handing out scripts to drug addicts they should be shut down. However, you should know for sure if they are. Hard to tell if a doctor is writing scripts they shouldn't be writing.

I must be honest. You have wasted your time by typing out this tirade of a post. I have no time to respond to people with your way of "thinking," I am very sorry for your mental status. A good councilor could possibly help.

What do you mean by Something "off the wall?"
My comments are usually logical and rational. Very few of you could ever come close to debunking any of my positions on nearly any subject. All most of you can do, is post insults and grade-school-type allegations of stupidity.
If not, then simply prove me wrong, in any debate you wish. Thank you much.

Fearing the Fall
I'd been thinking about this for a long time. Well, ever since they found the cancer I guess. It wasn't bad yet, but I had seen what it did to my sister. Seen how painful it was for her in the end. That's not for me. For about a month now, I knew it would be the bridge; the bridge at night. Why end things in a lonely room? Why not savor the freedom of release? I even had dreams about it. Cool wind in my face, sparkling stars above me, and shimmering black water below. A few seconds of perfect swan-dive exhilaration, carefree flight into the blackness, and then oblivion. What came after that, I didn't know; didn't care. All I did know was that this world sucked and I wanted out. I spent the evening having a few laughs with some strangers at a bar over on the Southside. I had a decent buzz going, so I figured hey, why not tonight? The rent is past due on Monday, what better time? Walking up the incline of the bridge, that thought made me chuckle a little. It was a beautiful night, clear skies, nice breeze. When I got to the apex of the bridge, I put my hands on the rail, took a deep breath, and looked over, down into the water. I knew I couldn't go from here. I've heard about people surviving from here. We can't have that. It's the tower for me. Still holding the rail, I tilted my head back, and looked at the steelworks looming up two hundred feet over my head. Lit from below by a rushing stream of headlights, the tower vanished into a black silhouette against the glowing night sky. Standing there gazing at the pinpoints of light, I swear I could perceive the motion of the earth turning on its axis.
The bottom of the ladder that led up the tower was surrounded by a cage at the bottom, but I was able to shimmy up the steel beam next to it in the shadows where passing traffic couldn't see me. When I was even with the top of the cage, I grabbed a ladder rung, and swung myself over. Nothing to stop me now. About a third of the way up, I had to take a break and catch my breath. I hadn't realized how strenuous it would be climbing a ladder this tall. I stopped several more times on the way up. As I worked my way higher, I noticed the metal ladder rungs were feeling more and more corroded. a few of them even felt loose. By the time I got up near the top, my arms and legs were burning. It must have taken me nearly an hour. I had to rest between every step. Looking up at the end of the ladder, I could see that it ran right up into the bottom of some kind of steel trap door that must have opened onto the tiny platform at the very top of the tower. The end is in sight. I also noticed that the final section of ladder looked to be solid rust. It also appeared to be completely loose on one side, and slanted down. It's been the same all my life. Nothing is easy. The final ten feet was going to be gut wrenching. Every ladder rung now was flaking off large chunks of rust when I put my hands on them. I looked back down the ladder. If I fell from here, there were enough crisscrossing steel beams to snag me before I dropped too far. That could mean spending months with a mangled, broken body in a hospital room somewhere. Definitely not part of my plan. I had to make it up onto that platform where I could jump clear. By the time I got my entire weight up onto the last ladder section, I could almost hear it crumbling apart. My heart was pounding, and my limbs and lungs were on fire, but that door was only two feet above my head. Thankfully, there didn't appear to be any kind of lock on it. I gingerly reached up and wrapped my fingers around the final ladder rung just inches below the steel trap door. With every ounce of strength I had left, I launched myself upward, striking the door with the palm of my free hand. It only opened about six inches, but somehow I was able to hook my arm up into the door frame while the ladder crumbled to pieces and fell down below me. This all happened in the same instant, and I let out a scream that sounded way too much like a little girl.
The steel door was pinching my arm, but I had a pretty good hold on the frame of the trap door if I could just get the thing opened. I grabbed the edge with the fingers of my free hand, and managed to swing my leg up high enough to give it a hard kick. Again I heard the girlish scream, but this time it wasn't me. "Stop it!" "What are you doing?" a shaky panicked voice screamed. You have got to be kidding me. There's somebody up there. Do I have to deal with crowds everywhere I go? "Let me up there!" "The ladder just fell apart!" I shouted, weakly kicking at the door again. "No! Stop it! There's barely enough room for one person to stand up here! You can't open that door without knocking me off!" she sobbed. "Well what the hell are you doing up there?" I growled. She was crying uncontrollably now, "I'm gonna jump! I'm gonna kill myself!" I tried to swing my foot up again for another kick, but I had zero strength left. I might be able to pull myself up somehow if that door was opened, but as it was, I was stuck there, hanging in mid air. "Listen to me." I said in my best calm and collected voice. "You have to lift up the door and let me up there. I can't go back down. The ladder is gone." She was still sobbing, but with a little less panic in her voice. "I told you I can't! The door is what I'm standing on! There is no room!" What the hell was she talking about? "What the hell are you talking about? How did you get up there?" She tried to explain in a slightly calmer voice. "I swung around the other side of the ladder. Swing around on the other side and you can climb up over the edge" she said. "The ladder's gone! Forget the ladder!" I shouted, loosing my temper. "Why don't you just jump if you're going to jump?" I snapped, loosing all patience. I could feel the door shake slightly as she silently sobbed. I took a deep breath, and paused to ponder my unique new situation. After a moment, I said in a gentler voice, "What's your name anyway?" "Mia" she said, sniffling.

Most athletes actually develop their calves to break their ankles and or force a major knee injury. The culprit is in platform development. The platform is the engagement of all 5 toes on and pushing off the ground. Most athletes actually roll off their last 3 toes when they should have a secure platform from the ball of the foot and all 5 toes securely on the ground.
If the athlete rolls off the last 3 toes several things occur. They develop the calve to actually roll the ankle, which prevents a powerful vertical ie: basketball players, high jumpers and hurdlers etc. and forces a compromise to the athletes center of gravity and loss of time.
You have heard of 3 position calves. Usually this exercise is also done with the roll of the three toes and actually will cause an ankle break due to the incorrect development of the calve muscle, now in these compomised 3 positions. To do the exercise correctly you want the foot, in the 1st position, straight ahead. Have a 2 x 6 board with half your foot on the board, your toes and the ball of your foot.
When you come up on your toes keep your focus onto the ball of your foot with all 5 toes touching the board at all times and slowly lower your heels below the 2 x 6. The 2nd position is heels together, again keep your weight toward the ball of your foot and all five toes in continuous contact with the board and press up onto your platform again slowly descend maintaining your platform.
If you contract your pyramadalis and adductors foward it will also force a stretch into the hips and center your gravity and increase your power in competition. The third position is toes together.
Again put your weight onto the ball of your foot. If you can maintain all 5 toes onto the ground and your weight onto the ball of your foot while you press up and come back down you will successfully eliminate shin splints.
A couple of notes.
- Do not allow the weight to compromise your lower back keep your abs in control of the weight.
- Start the exercises with your knees bent and do not allow your head to bob at all.
- You will keep all the focus, then, on your calves.
If there is an interest here I will be happy to share a new exercise called calve squats that will integrate the platform, calves, hamstrings, femors, glutes and abs into a powerful development and increase into the athletes verticle and center.
I hope this helps and thanks for your interest and time. This info is from my book "Preserving The Male Integrity".

okay... I am thoroughly impressed now. This is turning out amazingly well. I can only hope mine turns out so good.
LOL me to
oh what color primer did you use?
I didn't bother with a primer cos I just used Krylon Fusion which doesn't require a primer. I put on a silver layer then put my color over. Worked out pretty well.
Oh, and A'den, yes I'm going to hem my kama.
Thank you for the comments.
thats what i did too w/ the primer used krylon hammer looked good btw the way your armor looks awesome
What is kama
A kama is Mando'a for belt-spat--or as some like Fi call it a skirt. They are most commonly found on Mandalorians and ARC troopers.
Here are a few pics of kamase:
And in this next one you can see Mirta is wearing a kama:
And for some fun here's a quote about kamase:
"Nice skirt. Really suits you. Hand washable?"
Fi to Ordo

The property is on a housing estate very near to a popular Church of England secondary school, close enough to spit on the roof of the science block from the top floors of the flats - in fact, quite a few of the residents do that. Can you see where I'm going with this?
Though my flat doesn't normally appeal to families (see earlier reference to spitting), this mum is happy to rent it for a short while to secure a place for her daughter at the secondary school. At the moment she lives just half a mile from the school, but her house is a few inches outside the catchment area, which is only 0.45 miles wide. My place is 0.267 miles away. Not that we've measured it or anything.
'After all, I'm not running a brothel, but cashing in on parents' desires to get their kids into the best schools might seem as bad'
One or two families from my son's primary school have moved just a few streets to be closer to the secondary school to secure places for their offspring, but houses within the catchment area are expensive and my friend can't find anything affordable.
Her plan is to rent my place for a few months then move back to her house once her daughter has got into the school. As it's a CofE school, another option is for her to drag her daughter to church every Sunday, which would be cheaper but harder on the knees.
I'd love to let my flat to families like hers. She only wants to stay for a few months - just long enough for the school to accept it's her "permanent" address - but none of my tenants stick around for very long anyway and I might even find other families who want to take her place. However, I'm aware that some people think it's wrong to move into an area temporarily just to secure a school place and these same people would probably think it immoral of me to facilitate families with such dastardly motives.
Renting within school catchment areas is a recurring theme on the parent's website Mumsnet, where there are plenty of users with nicknames like Justanoldbag slagging off parents who do this sort of thing. There was one thread on Mumsnet where Spidookly told PeppaPigHonk to f*** off when Peppa suggested families should up sticks and move to some mysterious place called "the country" if they wanted their children to go to "nice" schools. I'm with Spidookly on that one.
One user claimed she knew a landlord who'd been ticked off by a local authority for letting their property to a succession of families wanting to get their kids into the local school, but I think Goody2shoes or whatever her name was just made that up. It might be immoral to let to a family working the system, but surely it's not illegal?
Another user suggested local education authorities spy on families using "known short-term, school access addresses" to make sure they're really living there. But really, should any of this concern me? After all, I'm not running a brothel, though some Mumsnet users might think that cashing in on parents' desires to get their kids into the best schools is almost as bad.

UK Tier 1Visas
If you would like to secure a UK Tier 1 Visa but not sure about how to apply we can help. Our services are completely free. Simply ask our experts any question for a fast and full response.
Tier 1 of the Points-Based System directly replaces the previous Highly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP UK) and like its predecessor, it is designed to facilitate the relocation of skilled migrants to the UK.
We offer a unique 100% free service. You can ask us about your case and our experts will provide a fast response, specific to your needs. Why not ask us now? - Click here...
About Tier 1 immigration
UK Tier 1 visas are designed to attract what the Home Office refer to as the 'brightest and best' of potential UK immigration candidates. Unlike tier 2 visas, which also apply to those moving to the UK for long-term business or employment purposes.
Tier 1 visas do not require an offer of employment to be in place. As a result, the requirements of the tier 1 assessment are consistent with selecting the most highly skilled applicants. Find out if you have the skills to qualify using the free assessment tool.
Under Tier 1 - Applicants may apply through one of the following categories:
Exceptional Talent
This category of Tier 1 UK Visa is designed to attract talented and skilled individuals to the UK. Judged on a case-by-case basis, applicants must prove that they are recognised as world leaders in their field of expertise. Take the free assessment to find out if you meet these requirements. You may also like to visit UK Work Permit information.
You may want to find out more about this in our Tier 1 Exceptional talent page.
The General category applies to highly skilled candidates wishing to enter the UK in order to seek and undertake employment. The program is now discontinued, however, existing UK Tier 1 Visa holders will still be permitted to renew or extend the visa. Applicants who previously qualified for Tier 1 are now eligible for Tier 2 Visas.
Applicants for the Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa will be investing in the UK economy by starting or assuming control of a business. Candidates must also be involved in the day-to-day running of the enterprise concerned.
The Investor stream of Tier 1 is aimed at individuals making a substantial investment in the UK.
Discontinued programs replaced by Tier 1 Visa UK
Tier 1 of the PBS replaces eight immigration categories from the previous system and replaces them with four new subdivisions. With the exception of the Post-Study Work category, time spent in the UK will count towards the minimum residency requirement of five years for permanent settlement in the UK.
Outgoing UK Immigration Services
- Business persons
- Fresh talent: Working in Scotland Scheme
- Highly Skilled Migrant Programme
- Investors
- International Graduates Scheme
- Innovators
- Self Employed Lawyers
- Writers, Composers and Artists
Tier 1 Visa assessment
As with the previous HSMP, tier 1 visa applications for the UK will be assessed on a range of criteria. In sub-categories of tier 1, candidates will be assessed against a specific group of requirements. However, the following general requirements will apply to all streams:
- English Language Proficiency - The PBS places emphasis on competence in the English Language, especially in tier 1.
- Self - Sufficiency - All migrants in tier 1 must be able to support both themselves and any dependent family members.
Applying for a Tier 1 visa
Unlike the other tiers of the PBS, tier 1 visa applications do not need a sponsor to be in place. The tier 1 visa application will be a single process whether initiated from inside or outside the UK and applicants will need to submit a range of supporting documentation in order to substantiate their application. Candidates may apply for a tier 1 visa either to enter the UK, extend a stay, or switch whilst already in the UK.
Tier 1 spouse immigration and dependent immigration
Since tier 1 immigration is designed for skilled migrants immigrating to the UK for a long-term to permanent stay, a successful applicant may bring their dependants, including their spouse, civil partner, unmarried partner, and/or children with them. However, the main applicant must demonstrate their ability to support and maintain their dependants in the UK.
These dependants will be eligible work, however, if they wish to be in the UK in their own right i.e. rather than as a dependent, they will need to leave the UK in order to apply.
There are five main UK Immigration Visa categories you can apply under:
Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, Tier 4 and Tier 5
How can we help you secure your visa?

SOCUELLAMOS, Spain, Oct 10 (Reuters) ''Living in this thing is no good,'' says Nadezhda, pointing to a wine vat lying abandoned by a litter-strewn patch of waste ground on the plains of central Spain.
Around her, barefoot children scamper between mounds of smouldering rubbish. Flies buzz around their heads.
Nadezhda and about 40 others living in this makeshift camp are ethnic Turks from Bulgaria who came to the vineyards of Socuellamos to pick grapes during the six-week annual harvest.
At night they sleep in 20 or so overturned wine vats -- car-sized concrete barrels dumped on the outskirts of Socuellamos, a farming community in the hot and dusty region of Castilla-La Mancha.
In some of the vats, families of up to seven are crammed onto beds of breeze blocks and foam. Cardboard is used as flooring and a thin flap of fabric over the neck of the vat makes for a front door.
Bulgaria joined the European Union on January 1 but the fact this group travelled across the continent in search of work, and the conditions they live in, is a reminder of the economic gulf between old Europe and some of the bloc's newest citizens.
The filthy camp empties out on a typical weekday, when most of the group go looking for work in the vineyards for around 42 euros a day.
Nadezhda says her husband would earn 5 euros a day at home in Sliven, southern Bulgaria.
Unemployment in their hometown is high and around 10 per cent of Bulgaria's 7.3 million people are seeking work abroad.
''Life here (in Spain) is not good. There's no water, no gas.
We have a proper home in Sliven, but no money,'' shrugs Nadezhda, which means 'hope' in Bulgarian.
She points to bottles used to collect water from a public fountain in the town's central square a few hundred metres away.
The toilet is a hastily constructed shed in a field.
WORLD AWAY The local Bar Madrid is a world away from the Bulgarians' camp just across the field.
Local people have seen the Bulgarians occupy the land for the last four harvests, but rarely mix with the outsiders, says a resident who gave her name just as Magdalena. Most migrant workers lodge in town apartments or buildings supplied by farmers.
''I guess they don't bother us, but I don't like it either,'' she said. ''It's obvious that not all have come to work.'' That fear of immigrant crime is one replayed across Europe.
In Britain, police bosses have asked for more funds to cope with a dramatic rise in arrivals from eastern Europe: last December Italians torched tents prepared for a new gypsy camp in a Milan suburb.
Farmers in the area have other worries. They complain local authorities take up to two months to register workers, yet the immigrants they depend on to harvest 80 per cent of the crop turn up just days before the start of the short picking season.
That means many of the 3,000-4,000 immigrants who work on the local harvest do so illegally, including Romanians and Bulgarians who have no automatic right to work in 13 of the EU's 15 old member states. Madrid has said it will consider opening its market to the new EU entrants from next year.
For Jacinto Trillo, a winegrower and president of a local wine cooperative, the rules are a serious headache.
Growers have to cross their fingers and hope the authorities -- recognising how important wine-growing is for the region -- turn a blind eye to their illegal employment of non-registered Romanians, Bulgarians and others from outside the EU, he said.
If not, they could be fined up to 6,000 euros for each illegal worker.
An unwelcome spotlight fell on the issue last month when, in the space of a week, three workers without valid contracts died of heart or lung problems in the fields around Socuellamos.
Trillo has had enough. Next year he is going to train his ground-hugging vines onto trellises so they can be mechanically harvested, cutting the migrant workforce on his private vineyard from 10 to zero.
