K-1 World Max 2007 Championship Final - Fight report
October 3, 2007
by Jason Nowe (Photos by Stephen Martinez) (firstname.lastname@example.com)
TOKYO, Oct. 3 -- After a night of feverish fisticuffs and knockouts at the Nippon Budokan in central Tokyo, kickboxing's "Elite Eight" field of 155-pound fighters from around the world was whittled down to just two: Dutch Shootboxing veteran Andy Souwer (Pictures) and K-1 MAX Japanese golden boy Masato.
Neither fighter was a stranger to the finals or to each other. In 2003, Masato defeated Albert Krauss to take the championship, and in 2005 Souwer defeated Thai wrecking machine Buakaw Por.Pramuk to take the crown.
This year's championship bout was in fact a rematch of the 2006 K-1 MAX semifinals, in which Souwer defeated Masato before being knocked out by the eventual king, Por.Pramuk.
Masato came out furiously off the opening bell and maintained the aggression throughout. Souwer, traditionally a slow starter, hung back and mostly covered during the first half of the round, scoring vicious low kick counters after Masato's big hand combinations.
Typically in Souwer's bouts, the Dutch ace comes to life in the second round, unleashing pinpoint punching, big combinations and brutal leg kick counters.
Indeed this was the case tonight. After defending a barrage of punches just off the second round's opening bell, Souwer countered with some well-placed fists of his own that had Masato reeling back.
Souwer continued to score with jabs and well-timed counterpunching, eventually scoring three unanswered low kicks to Masato's left leg. At that point the chink in the fiery Japanese kickboxer's armor began to show, as his knee began to buckle upon each subsequent impact.
Sensing that the end was near, Souwer turned up the heat and continued to pound on Masato's left leg. In the closing seconds of the round, Masato was in real trouble, limping from the damage that he sustained and just making it to the bell. If there had been another 10 seconds in the round, a knockout or referee stoppage would have been very likely.
Masato's cornermen sat their fighter down facing the ring post and examined his leg while Souwer stood in his corner. As the referee signaled for the start of the round, Masato remained seated with his back to the ring, talking with his corners. A few seconds later, the Japanese fighter's corner threw in the towel, thus making Andy Souwer (Pictures) the K-1 MAX 2007 Champion.
With this repeat of his 2005 K-1 MAX title, Souwer placed himself alongside fellow two-time champion Buakaw Por.Pramuk as the most dominate 155-pound fighter in K-1.
Souwer's first challenge on his way to the finals was tough Armenian fighter Drago.
As per his usual style, the Dutch fighter started out slow. He circled the ring, mostly covering up and countering his hard-punching opponent.
In the second, Souwer really turned up the heat, knocking his opponent's head back with pinpoint-accurate punching. After some more jousting, a strange sense of deja vu filled the arena as Souwer ended the fight in the exact same way he ended his bout with Danish fighter Ole Laursen (Pictures) in June.
Just as Drago was stepping in for a punch, Souwer connected with a perfectly timed right hook that sent his opponent unconscious to the canvas at the 1:43 mark of the round.
After clearing Drago, "The Battle Of Holland" ensued, as Souwer faced off against 2002 K-1 MAX Champion, fellow Dutchman Albert Krauss.
Krauss, who dispatched Yoshihisa Sato in the quarterfinals, continued to show his boxing prowess in the bout by linking together excellent combinations, especially off his right-hand uppercut on the inside.
This bout was definitely for the boxing fans, with both fighters piling on the leather. Souwer scored the better counters, especially with his low kicks, but Krauss almost never stopped punching, particularly in the third round.
The match was very, very close after three rounds, but Lady Luck was on Souwer's side, and the Dutch fighter took the majority decision to advance to the finals.
On the other side of the bracket, popular Japanese fighter Masato faced off against Buakaw Por.Pramuk in a quarterfinal bout. This was a huge test for the K-1 golden boy against the tough Thai fighter who had thoroughly beaten him in the 2004 K-1 MAX finals.
In that bout three years ago, Por.Pramuk manhandled Masato for all three rounds. However, extremely biased K-1 judges called for an extra round, a move that caused an uproar over K-1 "hometown" judging practices and lead to a subsequent investigation by the company's management. Masato hung on in the extra round, but he still lost the decision.
Masato had three years to think about the loss and now had a chance for revenge.
Despite what some may think about Masato's look outside the ring, nobody can deny his skills. The moment that he stepped into the ring with Por.Pramuk, and all the time thereafter, the K-1 poster boy was absolutely on fire.
Masato came out blazing, connecting furious jabs and hooks to the two-time champion's head. He kept the charge going until he had dropped Por.Pramuk with a big right hand, forcing his opponent to take a standing-eight count. On the restart, Masato continued to punch away, putting the Thai fighter in a place he's almost never seen in the K-1 ring -- trouble -- for the closing seconds of the round.
The second and third rounds saw Masato use his vicious in-close uppercuts, followed by hooks to the head and body, to chip away at a seemingly indomitable Por.Pramuk. The hand speed of the Japanese fighter was awe-inspiring, allowing him to tag his opponent before Por.Pramuk could react.
By the final bell, it was obvious to the fans, the judges and even to Por.Pramuk that Masato had earned a unanimous victory and revenge.
The second hurdle in Masato's road to the finals was Ukrainian kickboxer Artur Kyshenko.
Kyshenko, a relatively new import to the promotion, had scored four wins in four fights since joining the ranks of K-1 MAX. In his quarterfinal match-up against Mike Zambidis, the Eastern European fighter used his considerable reach to keep the hard-hitting Greek at bay. The strategy nullified Zambidis' vicious body shots and allowed Kyshenko to score a decision victory after an extra round.
In the first round of his semifinal bout with Masato, Kyshenko looked very good, again using his reach to upset his opponent's offense and land clean shots.
In the second however, Masato showed why he's a top-tier contender, very quickly turning the tables on his 21-year-old opponent with pinpoint punching off the bell that sent Kyshenko to the mat. The Ukrainian fighter couldn't beat the count, giving Masato the victory and a ticket to the finals.
In the night's reserve bout, IBF middleweight boxing champion turned kickboxer Virgil Kalakoda gave Takayuki Kohiruimaki a boxing lesson. Kalakoda closed the distance and unleashed with tight hooks to the head and body, effectively disabling the somewhat one-dimensional Japanese fighter from using his best weapon, his kicks. In the third round Kalakoda kept up the barrage until he eventually scored the KO victory with a punch combination.
In non-tournament bouts, Korean Su Hwan Lee won a decision over Seido Kaikan fighter Kazuya Yasuhiro (Pictures).
HIROYA also defeated Kwon Eol Zang by unanimous decision.

Spain Law
Need Spanish Law Help? Ask Spanish Law Questions Online.
Hi there
Legally the bank has no obligation to admit the propiety
In spanish law does not exist the chance to give the propiety to the bank in order to pay
your mother could negotiate with the bank
but the are not forced to accept by law
If she is working now, and if she does not pay the bank will seize her salary
When you do not pay, they will demand you in court
They cal sell out the propiety and if the sum gotten do not is enought to pay, then seize your salary
But if she can not pay the best way its from the begining to write the bank asking for the cancelation of the doubt by giving the propiety
Some people is getting it from the bank now, because a lot of people in spain can no pay
The bank has no legal obligation to admit it but sometimes they do
I will be here to answer you if you have more questions
Thank you
If the property has been bought in joint names, would the bank seize half of her salary. The other joint owner is back in England - can they claim money from him ?
Well, the bank could choose who they seize
The two of them have to pay all the sum to the bank
So if he is on england they will demand to pay your mother because its easier for them
They have a little chance to sieze him as long he stay in england
They have the legal chance to seize your mother for the total sum debt
They do not care its on name of both
They can demand only to your mother to pay for all
Is there a legal way out of this situation - she is unable to pay the mortgage and so may have to return to England ?
The legal answer is to negotiate with the bank and if they do not want she could force the situation becuase legaly the seice has some limits
So if she studies with the help of an spanish attorney her chances she can negotiate better
She can stay without problems in spain, the legal problem its th stay with an small part of the salary seized
if you tell me her salary I could tell you the riekes
Her salary is approx 28,000 euro - she is renting an apartment in Valencia to keep her work but is struggling to pay the mortgage on her property in Xativa
one minute
Does she live alone ?
I mean somebody who depend on her ?
If she nodody does the worse frame for your mother its to be seized about 300 euros once she have lost the hause
if somedody depends on her will be less, about 250 euros
So negotiate with the bank and if they do not want forget to pay them
Force the negotiation without pay the bank
In the worse frame, your mother take the risk than once she has lost the haose, no before, to be seized for 300 euros per month
Thats all

Important Update {8/18/11}: According to a recent report released by the USDA...
"the products produced by Zuii Organic were erroneously certified as 'organic' by TOFC (The Organic Food Chain) because the products contain prohibited ingredients and do not contain enough organic ingredients to qualify for the 'organic' designation, which requires the products to contain 95% or more organic ingredients by weight."
To read more, click here.
+ + + + +
A few weeks back Zuii Organic makeup made our Best In Natural Beauty Awards and I'm sure you're curious to know why. In 2008, Zuii Organic launched in Australia after 6 years of R&D, though only recently made it's debut in the U.S. News of the line first hit my radar this past summer but it wasn't until a few months ago that I was able to try the line when Emelyn Rodriguez, Founder of BellaFloria sent me some of the products to try before they launched the line. As far as I know, BellaFloria is the only online retailer to carry the brand in the U.S.
Right off the bat I was impressed to learn that Zuii Organic has achieved what the majority of cosmetic companies cannot or have not:
I'm pretty impressed that they post their certifications right on their website for all to see, on their About page. But cert aside, Zuii Organic makeup feels and looks lovely on the skin - at least the products I tried which included:
Certified Organic Flora Blush
Though the price may seem a little steep at first, let me tell you that this blush is densely pigmented; and by that I mean I use only the smallest amount on my blush brush to achieve great color. In fact, the first time I used it I got a little excited and began to swirl my kabuki brush round and round to ensure I was getting enough of it on my brush. Result: I looked sunburned after application. So next time, I was very careful to try to get the least amount on my brush and when I say a little goes a long way - it's no lie, it really does. You'll have this product for months and months. My guess is six plus months. And here's a tip, to give the illusion that I actually have color in my face, I use this sort of as a bronzer and swirl all over my entire face and neck and go back over my cheeks for a little extra flush. I'm using the color Grapefruit and it's totally perfect for me.
Certified Organic Flora Eyeshadow
I was sent Fudge, a wonderful milk chocolate brown color. It provides great color and long-lasting coverage, it's also very concentrated much like the blush so you'll have this little pot o' pressed powder for quite a long time I'm sure. To my delight it isn't glittery nor matte. I would describe it as a luminescent sheen. The finish is just right.
Certified Organic Mascara
This is a good mascara, thanks in part to the wide brush; though I have to be careful not to touch my eyes when I wear it because it will smudge if I do that. I like that I can layer this meaning I can apply one coat, let it dry and apply another coat for extra volume. I've got to be careful not to use creamy products around my eyes when I wear it because that will also increase the smudge factor. Setting it with a powder & giving it a chance to dry should help with that.
Certified Organic Liquid Foundation
I tried this in the lightest shade, Natural Fair (because I'm quite pale), but as it turned out it was too light for me and I looked quite ghostly so it wasn't really a good test. I recommend ordering samples of this before you pick your perfect color.

Chevrolet Repair Questions? Ask a Chevy Mechanic for Answers ASAP
The estimate is for aXXXXX It is do the job correctly {drop oil pan} and at $69.00 per hour w/ GM parts. You can figure about a 30% decrease {or more}in parts with after market. Also, many shops will not drop the oil pan, but use a thick film of silicone between the pan and cover. I do not reccommend that, it leaks over time.
Now, I would also replace the water pump if it had not been done in a long while and the thermostat. Pump is just parts, no labor. Has to come off anyway.
Finally, if it is a 4x4, drop rate by about 2.3 hours labor. It is less labor for a 4x4 than a 2wd.

Newly relocated apprentice sensation Joseph Talamo registered his first Santa Anita stakes victory aboard talented Try to Fly in Saturday's $83,250 San Pedro for 3-year-olds at 6 1/2 furlongs.
Trained by Doug O'Neill and owned by Mercedes Stable, Try to Fly, a Florida-bred colt by Trippi, broke cleanly from the rail and settled last early in the nine horse field. He split horses late to win in a driving finish by one-half length in 1:15 1/5.
"Oh, what a ride," said O'Neill. "This horse is so gifted. I've heard this rider is unbelievable and he looked unbelievable there."
O'Neill said Try to Fly is ready for a two-turn test next on the Hollywood Park Cushion Track, where the solidly built colt has been training in sharp fashion this year.
Try to Fly broke cleanly and settled in last position early. Idiot Proof, breaking from post position number two, set a fast early pace of :21.52, :43.87 and 1:08.84.
Talamo, who at age 17 was a runaway leading rider this winter at Fair Grounds in New Orleans, was aboard Try to Fly for the first time. "My horse broke good, it was just a matter of time before I had room to get through. I had so much horse around the turn, I was just waiting for a hole to open. This really feels great, winning my first stake here at Santa Anita."
The second choice in the wagering at 7-2, Try to Fly returned $9.80, $4.60 and $3.20. Grade II winner Principal Secret also made a big move on the tiring leaders for jockey Alex Solis but could not pass Try to Fly, returning $5 and $4. Street Lights and Richard Migliore pressed the pace and returned $6.40 to show.
With the winner's share of $48,060, Try to Fly increased his earnings to $84,660. In his only other start on March 3, Time to Fly romped over maidens by 5 1/4 lengths at Santa Anita going six furlongs.
Mr. and Mrs. Samuel H. Rogers Jr. bred the chestnut, who is out of the Kris S. mare Try Your Best and sold for $245,000 as a yearling at Fasig-Tipton Kentucky.
There was a Pick Six carryover coming into Sunday of $574,380 and with the carryover, the total pool was $2,303,246. There were 1,709 winning tickets, returning $898.40. Five winners paid $18.20.
The San Pedro shared feature billing with the $107,200 Pro or Con Handicap for California-bred fillies and mares at one mile on turf. It was won by 1-2 favorite Dancing General, under Garrett Gomez for owner Stan Fulton and trainer Rafael Becerra.
Dancing General was all-out to defeat 18-1 longshot Two Times Won by one-half length. Dancing General returned $3, $2.40 and $2.10. Two Times Won, under Jon Court, paid $9 and $5.80. Del Mar Ticket got the show, paying $2.80.
Dancing General was attentive to the pace through slow fractions of :25.05, :49.80, 1:13.83 and 1:25.61. She got the mile in 1:37.16.
With the winner's purse of $64,320, Dancing General increased her bankroll to $278,720, while winning for the fourth time in 10 starts with five seconds.

From sequencing the human genome to modeling living organisms, biology has gone digital, and WPI's Bioinformatics & Computational Biology (BCB) program is at the forefront of this digital revolution.
Bioinformatics involves the collection, management, and analysis of biological data; Computational Biology is the development of quantitative models of biological systems. While many schools offer BCB as a concentration within a traditional Biology program, WPI's program comprises three academic departments: Biology, Computer Science, and Mathematics.
Our program's diverse environment encourages a collaborative mindset and access to a broad range of resources that promote creative solutions to pressing scientific questions. Undergraduate and graduate students work alongside expert faculty researchers to use cutting-edge, quantitative techniques to increase our understanding of biology and translate this knowledge into meaningful solutions.

A message from Elizabeth F. Ryder
Director, Bioinformatics & Computational Biology
We designed WPI's BCB Program to educate students to feel comfortable in the language, concepts, and techniques of three distinct disciplines: biology, mathematics, and computer science. We also developed courses that overlap two or more of these disciplines, each centered on different aspects of the theories, concepts, techniques, and tools of bioinformatics and computational biology. This interdisciplinary training is exciting and rewarding, and allows students many opportunities to tackle challenging biological problems.
BCB Professor Carolina Ruiz designs data mining algorithms to discover patterns in large collections of data. She is developing computational models for the purpose of advancing the treatment of sleep disorders.
BCB graduate student Alyssa Tsiros won an honorable mention at the Symposium on Biological Data Visualization in Dublin, Ireland, for her biovisualization depicting the evolution of noncoding RNA in the Human accelerated region 1, a recently discovered gene that may be responsible for the accelerated brain development of humans compared to other mammals. Tsoris's project stood out for effectively using color-coded arc diagrams to depict genetic data.
With their robust cross-disciplinary knowledge and hands-on project experiences, BCB graduates are well prepared for rewarding careers across a wide variety of industries. Our graduates assume leadership roles in positions in federal and state government, higher education, research and development, and the pharmaceutical industry. The average starting salary in 2015 was $66,500.

The Dreaded Freshman 15: Fact or Fiction?
So, the time has finally come! You've packed your bags, you've picked out your cute dorm accessories, and you are ready to embark on one of the most exciting journeys of your life – your freshman year in college in finally here! You can't wait for your newfound independence and the friendships you are about to make that will last a lifetime. There's only one problem – the dreaded "freshman 15!" There's no doubt that you have been warned by many that there's nothing you can do to avoid the weight gain of your freshman year – and these stories are passed down throughout the generations like clockwork and are simply accepted as fact. As you approach your freshman year, maybe these stories are beginning to worry you a bit or making you think about how or what you will need to do to keep this from happening to you!
Well, we want you to ask yourself what would change if you found out that everything you have heard about the freshman 15 was a myth! Yes, you heard us correctly, we are suggesting that everything you have heard about the inevitable 15lb weight gain in your freshman year is a simply a myth and there is some strong data to back up what we are saying!
In contrast to popular belief, there is little to no sound evidence behind the theory of the freshman 15. In fact, one recent studies examining the concept of the freshman 15 found it to be a complete myth, with no significant weight gain shown in freshman completing their first year in school (Graham & Jones, 2010)! In addition, a large meta-analysis reviewing many studies on the freshman 15 found that less than 10% of all college students actually gain 15lbs in their first year (Vadeboncoeur, Townsend, & Foster, 2015), which means that over 90% do NOT have this issue we have all been made to fear! In addition, another large meta-analysis of 49 studies exploring weight changes throughout the entire college experience, showed an average of minimal weight gain of only 1.55kg (about 3.5lbs) in all four years of college (Fedewa, Das, Evans, & Dishman, 2014). However, what's even more concerning is that researchers have shown that those students who were worried about the freshman 15 myth were found to have more problematic body image, more worry thoughts about their weight and more likely to think they were overweight than those who were not worried about the freshman 15. As body image experts at the Conscious Coaching Collective, this is particularly concerning for us, as we see the devastating effects that poor body image has on women in our daily practice!
Being overly focused on body image and weight has a definite negative impact in all areas of college life, including ability to focus in school, ability to be present in social relationships, and possibly setting a person up for negative outcomes in romantic relationships, and of course, potentially dangerous to one's health as eating disorders and other such issues sometimes develop out of body image issues! When working with young women, we always challenge them to consider that the way we view our appearance on the outside is very much influenced by the way we feel about ourselves emotionally on the inside. Therefore, if you find yourself not liking what you see on your outer appearance, we challenge you to consider how this might be influenced by the internal uncertainty you are feeling about this new experience in your life.
In addition, if you do notice yourself gaining weight during your freshman year, do not panic – instead, we recommend checking in on some of the following possibilities:
Assess the type of hunger you are experiencing – At the CCC, we like to encourage people to consider hunger in terms of mouth hunger vs. stomach hunger. Ask yourself, are you eating out of "stomach hunger" (ie., you are listening to your body cues and you are having a physical sensation of hunger coming from your stomach, not your mind, that is at about a 7 out of 10 – this is actual physical hunger) vs. "mouth hunger" (i.e., you are craving the taste or the feeling you get from eating a certain thing rather than feeling physically hungry – this is not physical in nature, but rather emotional in nature).
Handle your emotional hunger in emotional ways – When you realize you are trying to solve emotional issues through physical means, such as food, ask yourself what else you need that you are not giving yourself. Are you feeling anxious? Are you feeling scared? When you identify the emotion or thoughts behind the craving, tend to that emotional need directly instead of using food. Try asking for support, taking a break from studying, resting from the "shoulds" in your life, etc.
Practice regular self-care – Recognize that college is a very exciting, yet taxing, time with lots of new stressors to learn how to manage. This means that you are going to experience more stress in reaction to the stressors and therefore, you need to compensate for this by learning to practice regular self-care. Simple things can help with this, such as balancing downtime with academics, talking to family and friend supports about stressors, engaging in moderate physical activity, or just taking a minute to brief deeply in a relaxing environment, etc. The more we practice self-care, the more capable we are to handle the on-going demands of the college environment.
Utilize campus resources – Many colleges have amazing resources available to students and these resources are often under-utilized. If you are feeling overwhelmed and noticing excessive weight gain or other concerning symptoms, we recommend making an appointment with your campus counseling center, health center, and/or dietician services. These resources are there to guide you and can be extremely supportive in making the most of your freshman year!
Finally, if you find yourself becoming overly focused on weight and shape and see that it is impacting your daily living, it may be time to make sure that you are really seeking professional support. Body image concerns can easily morph into eating disorders or disordered eating during stressful times, such as college, and catching those issues early is key to a successful outcome! Remember, you are more than a number on a scale or a grade on a paper – reminding yourself of this can go a long way!

A recent campaign from USA Swimming, which promotes participation at all levels in addition to the Olympic team, attempts to get kids back in the pool.
According to the Sports & Fitness Industry Association, swimming ranked 17th out of 24 sports for participation levels in 2013. The campaign from USA Swimming is an attempt to rekindle interest in the sport, and will be heavily promoted in August as students consider sports for the upcoming school year. Although they are competitors, swimwear brands Speedo, Tyr and Arena have come together as USA Swimming partners for the "SwimToday" campaign.
In one of the campaign spots, called "Cannonball," a girl splashes underwater in slow motion, while asking, via voiceover, "Basketball, softball, cannonball: which sounds the most fun to you?" The spot ends by prompting users to visit swimtoday.org and displaying the #funnestsport hashtag. Another spot, "The Walk," emphasizes the confidence-building aspects of the sport via a slow-motion strut accompanied by a funk soundtrack.
Mike Caguin, chief creative officer of Colle & McVoy, Minneapolis, part of MDC Partners, responsible for creative duties on the campaign, told The New York Times, that "The Walk" was meant to counter the awkward self-consciousness that accompanies swimming for many children. "When kids think about putting on a tight bathing suit and being essentially half-naked, there is a bit of a stigma sometimes," Caguin said. "But we wanted to embrace it and say, hey, this kid is completely 100 percent comfortable in his own skin because swimming has given him that confidence and that swagger."
Matt Farrell, CMO of USA Swimming, was pleased with the tone and direction of the campaign. "This puts swimming more in the game than they've been in the past," he said. "If you want to attract kids, you want to make it cool, and you want to make it fun."
While Farrell acknowledged that emphasizing the fun aspect of swimming may find some giving up on the sport when faced with the most grueling aspects of training, he felt confident those who stick with the sport will find it rewarding. "If a kid joins our sport duped by the campaign thinking it's all cannonballs, laughs and giggles they will find themselves on the soccer field much quicker," he wrote in a May blog post. "But if they give it a shot, hang with it for a few months and experience the culture of the sport, then I like our chances against any sport out there."

Cathepsin S (CTSS), one of the lysosomal proteinases, has many important physiological functions in the nervous system, especially in process of extracellular matrix degradation and endocellular antigen presentation. CTSS is synthesized as inactive precursor of 331 amino acids consisting of a 15-aa signal peptide, a propeptide of 99 aa, and a mature polypeptide of 217 aa. It is activated in the lysosomes by a proteolytic cleavage of the propeptide. Cathepsin S is expressed in the lysosome of antigen presenting cells, primarily dendritic cells, B-cells and macrophages. Compared with other lysosomal cysteine proteases, cathepsin S has displayed some unique characteristics. Cathepsin S is most well known for its critical function in the proteolytic digestion of the invariant chain chaperone molecules, thus controlling antigen presentation to CD4+ T-cells by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules or to NK1.1+ T-cells via CD1 molecules. Cathepsin S also appears to participate in direct processing of exogenous antigens for presentation by MHC class II to CD4+ T-cells, or in cross-presentation by MHC class I molecules to CD8+ T-cells. In addition, although direct evidence is still lacking, in its secreted form cathepsin S is implicated in degradation of the extracellular matrix, which may contribute to the pathology of a number of diseases, including arthritis, atherosclerosis, neurological diseases and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 7/2/2014 (1267 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
We're rooting fervently for our talented Canadian athletes to make it to the podium at the Sochi Olympics, Feb. 7-23.
But, travel-wise, no town in the northeast embodies the spirit of the Winter Olympics like Lake Placid, N.Y., at the heart of the Adirondack Mountains and the only venue in North America to have held two Winter Games, in 1932 and 1980.
Lake Placid radiates Olympic enthusiasm year-round, but the excitement is at its peak this month with Olympic flags flying on Main St. and local businesses holding promotions and contests.
Whiteface Lodge was conceived and built by Olympic luger Joe Barile, and today one of its employees, Chris Madzer, is in Sochi, set to compete in the same sport.
Whiteface Lodge is a handsome, luxurious all-suite resort overlooking downtown Lake Placid. It's not even 10 years old, but it has a classic, sturdy design of timber and fieldstone that recalls the Adirondack Great Camps.
The hotel looks rustic but it's thoroughly modern and fully loaded for vacation life. It has 94 spacious one- two- and three-bedroom suites with designer kitchens, washer-dryers, flat-screen TVs in all the rooms, custom furniture and cabinetry, bathrooms with jet tubs, double vanities and heated floors, and private balconies with mountain views.
Whiteface Lodge is a top-drawer property, with spa life and dining to match. The signature treatment at The Spa at Whiteface Lodge is the Purifying Lodge Retreat featuring a body wrap and hot stone massage. KANU -- it uses all-caps spelling for emphasis -- is a stunning dining room with a magnificent fireplace and hand-hewn decor. The hearty American gastronomy includes pumpkin bisque with maple syrup and chanterelles and braised venison shank with red currant and white bean purée. The more casual KANU Lounge features such gourmet family fare as a cheddar burger and fries with truffle oil and crispy duck bacon.
Because of the home-away-from-home accommodations, Whiteface Lodge is ideal for families. Kids love the indoor-outdoor heated pool and the nighttime family bonfires with s'mores. There are luxury lean-tos I thought would be great hideouts for youngsters, but they're more used by grown-ups as unusual lounges for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres or cigars and cognac.
With competition-calibre facilities still in place for luge, bobsled, biathlon, Nordic skiing and downhill at Whiteface Mountain, visitors can strive to be citius, altius, fortius, (the Olympic motto -- faster, higher, stronger -- in Latin), even if they are only weekend athletes.
One of my favourite excursions is the Ladies' 5-K Nordic trail at Mt. Van Hoevenberg, a pastoral five-kilometre trail through thick woods and up and down hills. I'm considerably more plodding than the world-class competitors whose ski time for five kilometres is an astounding 16 minutes or so, but it's a thrill to ski where champions have raced. Later, you can channel your inner hunter and simulate a biathlon with a coaching session at the target range. You'll be up close and personal with a 22-calibre rifle aiming for a bull's-eye that is 50 metres away.
The Olympic Skating Oval on Lake Placid's Main St. is open to the public and this is a delightful activity that is both exhilarating and social. You can skate laps to music and follow with hot chocolate.
You need a truly adventurous spirit to brave Lake Placid's bobsled ride. A driver and brakeman escort you on the five-passenger sled as you rocket down a narrow, icy track at almost 100 kilometres per hour for an explosive 50 seconds. It is so fast you actually feel a G-force tug, but world champions reach a daunting 140 km/h. You won't catch me bobsledding, thank you very much, but I always love a visit to the Lake Placid Olympic Museum on Main St. That's a lot tamer.
I've saved the best-known for last. Whiteface Mountain Ski Center was an ideal Olympic venue in 1980 because it has the longest vertical drop in eastern North America (1,018 metres), easily fulfilling the 914-metre minimum requirement for some of the ski competitions. (Whiteface wasn't part of the 1932 action because the first Olympic downhill events were the combined men's and women's races at the 1936 Games in Garmisch, Germany.)
At Whiteface you can conquer the steep, mogul trails that were part of the Games 20-plus years ago, but now you'll be gliding up on high-speed lifts. Even with those rugged expert runs, Whiteface maintains a strong folksy, family side. In recent years, it has opened Lookout Mountain and expanded its glades. The hot new trail through the trees is the black-diamond Rand's Last Stand. Whiteface also has added considerable snow-making and grooming systems.

SCHUTZHUND - Schutzhund Training
Tracking Dog Training
A dog is "tracking" when he is following the scent trail or disturbed vegetation scent, left by a person (or other animal) that has traveled along a certain route. Following a track is one of the many useful things dogs can do to help people. Hounds track game, rescue dogs track lost children, police dogs track suspects, well trained pets can find lost items.
At the beginning and end of each tracking training session, it is a good idea to talk about or write in a journal about problems and goals. At the end of a session, discuss or write about the problems the dog had. At the beginning of the next session, remind yourself what changes need to be made. An example of this would be a severe change in weather conditions from what the dog has been used to. If a particular condition has caused the dog to have a problem, then wait until that condition no longer exists. A difficult track on a hot, sunny, windy day for example, might lead you to make sure the next tracking session is in the cool morning or evening, perhaps even after a period of moisture. This doesn't mean you can't go back to hot, dry conditions; it only means you shouldn't repeatedly train in such difficult conditions.
Recognizing tracking problems and solving them is both an art and a science. It is an art because you have to be constantly on the lookout for subtle signals your dog gives. These signals may have more to do with your close personal bond with the dog than anything really obvious to others. It is also a science because you need to apply a rational, well-thought-out strategy to the problem at hand. This involves considering what information you have, considering your options carefully and deciding on a specific course of action. The most important thing in problem-solving is to be flexible, and only continue doing those things that work.
By carefully observing your dog, planning for conditions you expect at a tracking test and learning along with your dog what works (as well as what doesn't), you can minimize the long term effects of most training problems.

About Me
Look at my lists and you'll see what kind of work I want to do!!!!!
Please don't ask me to do nudity or anything that is tasteless or tacky because I am not willing to go there.
I have been modeling off and on since I was 14 years old. I moved to L.A. when I was 19 to pursue modeling but I ended up moving to Vegas soon after. It was important to me to continue my education so I moved back to Utah but still dabbled in modeling as much as i could.
Modeling and the arts are my biggest passions in life. If I could quit my day job and just model I would do it in a heart beat.
I am mostly seeking PAID assignments but I am willing to do tradework as well.
I am willing to do and available for editorial/high-fashion, glamour, promotional, music video, commercial/print, swimsuit, runway, action, and lingere. I am always open to new ideas and looks. I am also willing to travel with expenses paid.
If you wish to contact me you can do so by this site or email me at, firstname.lastname@example.com. If you have any ideas just let me know. Thank you! I look forward to working with you!

Former KTNV-TV, Channel 13 reporter and anchor Melissa McCarty, who left here six years ago to work in the Los Angeles market, has written a book titled "News Girls Don't Cry."
She's now working for Larry King on his new network ORA-TV as a fill-in host on the news-breaking segment.
She's a terrific storyteller, and she dishes some doozies about her demons and her personal life. Her chapter on Las Vegas mentions an unnamed mogul she dated and how she watched him lose $250,000 one night at blackjack.
One night at a Hollywood club, she was swept off her feet by a man she refers to as Mr. Wonderful-the athlete. After an argument-filled courtship, he called it off, saying he needed to focus on his career. He went on to "great success," she said. "In fact he was an overnight sensation."
Other media notes:
■ Stefanie Jay of KVVU-TV, Channel 5, topped six local celebrities to take home the Season 2 title of "DJ-ing with the Las Vegas Stars" competition on Mark &Mercedes in the Morning (KMXB-FM, 94.1). Jay won $5,000 for her charity, National Alliance on Mental Illness. Runner-up was Marcus Deegan from Thunder from Down Under (Excalibur). Third place went to hypnotist Anthony Cools, who performs at Paris Las Vegas.
■ Las Vegas photographer Denise Truscello has been nominated for the 2013 National Entertainment Journalism Awards for her photo essay during the 2013 CinemaCon in Las Vegas. She photographed Morgan Freeman, Chris Pine, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Elizabeth Banks, Aubrey Plaza, Asa Butterfield and director Justin Lin in at-the-movies poses.
■ Anjeanette Damon, political writer at the Las Vegas Sun since 2010, is returning to the Reno Gazette-Journal.
N9ne Steakhouse at the Palms closed Saturday for a five-week remodeling project. Executive chef Barry Dakake said the face-lift includes a new kitchen and "you can kiss the caviar bar goodbye." Dakake added, "It's the first time we've closed since it opened (Nov. 15, 2001)." …

Kistler Vineyards Vine Hill Chardonnay 2009
Chardonnay from Russian River, Sonoma County, California
Winemaker's Notes
Produced since 1991. The vineyard that surrounds the winery. 23 year old dry farmed Chardonnay grown in a deep, sandy subset of the Gold Ridge soil series that seemingly has no bottom. The vines mine the nutrient poor sands to produce a wine of unparalleled energy and verve. One of our perennial favorites due to its resounding natural acids and low pH which strike a perfect balance with the stone fruit body and notes of toasted hazelnut.
Critical Acclaim
International Wine Cellar - "Vivid gold. Lively, mineral-dominated aromas of candied citrus fruits, pear and ginger, with a smoky nuance building with air. Rich and expansive but very dry, offering palate-staining orange and pear skin flavors lifted by vibrant mineral and floral notes. Closes with excellent clarity and cut; there's zero excess fat here."
Vinous / Antonio Galloni - "The 2009 Chardonnay Vine Hill Vineyard comes across a bit inward and less expressive than the other wines in the collection. Scents of lemon, almonds and pastry emerge from the glass. The overall impression is of a small-scaled wine that, while quite pretty, lacks the visceral thrill of the top wines here. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2019. "
Wine Spectator - "One of the most understated and delicate of the new Kistlers, this displays wildflower, subtle peach and mineral flavors that are dialed back without sacrificing depth and persistence. Drink now through 2019."

Kistler Vineyards
Founded in 1978, Kistler Vineyards is a small, family-owned and operated winery specializing in the production of Burgundian style Chardonnay and limited amounts of Pinot Noir. Grapes are estate grown and purchased from vineyards in Sonoma County. In 1992, Kistler Vineyards moved all production to its Vine Hill Road Vineyard in the Russian River Valley. View all Kistler Vineyards Wines
About Russian RiverView a map of Russian River wineries
The Russian River Valley is named as such due to its proximity to the Russian River, the river itself named for the Russian fur traders who came down from Alaska in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The Russian River is agricultural land. While there is a focus on wine, beyond the vineyards are many small, family-owned farms cultivating everything from cattle to Christmas trees.
Notable FactsThe proximity of this cool river and the rolling fogs from the Pacific Ocean make the area amenable to cool-climate grapes like Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. In fact, the region is quite known for its full-bodied, yet elegant Pinot Noir, as well as their ripe, yet lean Chardonnays. Within Russian River Valley lie the smaller appellations of Chalk Hill and Green Valley. Chalk Hill is the warmer of the two and furthest from the ocean, while Green Valley is cooler and closer to the water.
About CaliforniaIt's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country unto itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

.. rn:: 5.5.24-26.0
|Percona Server| 5.5.24-26.0
Percona is glad to announce the release of |Percona Server| 5.5.24-26.0 on June 1st, 2012 (Downloads are available `here `_ and from the `Percona Software Repositories `_).
Based on `MySQL 5.5.24 `_, including all the bug fixes in it, |Percona Server| 5.5.24-26.0 is now the current stable release in the 5.5 series. All of |Percona|'s software is open-source and free, all the details of the release can be found in the `5.5.24-26.0 milestone at Launchpad `_.
* Percona :ref:`pam_plugin` has now been integrated into the |Percona Server|.
* |Percona Server| has implemented variable :variable:`enforce_storage_engine` which can be used for enforcing the use of a specific storage engine.
* New column, TOTAL_CONNECTIONS_SSL, has been added in the CLIENT_STATISTICS, THREAD_STATISTICS and USER_STATISTICS tables in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA database.
Bug Fixes
* A Server acting as a replication slave with the query cache enabled could crash with glibc detected memory corruption. This bug was introduced in MySQL 5.5.18 and Percona Server inherited it from MySQL. Bug fixed :bug:`915814` (*George Ormond Lorch III*).
* Loading LRU dump was preventing shutdown. Bug fixed :bug:`712055` (*George Ormond Lorch III*).
* A crash could leave behind an InnoDB temporary table with temporary indexes resulting in an unbootable server. Bug fixed :bug:`999147` (*Laurynas Biveinis*).
* Since the output file is simply overwritten when dumping the LRU list, we could end up with a partially written dump file in case of a crash, or when making a backup copy of it. Safer approach has been implemente. It now dumps to a temporary file first, and then rename it to the actual dump file. Bug fixed :bug:`686392` (*George Ormond Lorch III*).
* LRU messages are now more verbose for LRU dump. Bug fixed :bug:`713481` (*George Ormond Lorch III*).
* Building Percona Server with the Clang compiler resulted in a compiler error. Bug fixed :bug:`997496` (*Alexey Kopytov*).
* Variable :variable:`thread_statistics` was a reserved word in Percona Server 5.5. As a result, the server variable with that name had to be quoted with backticks when used. Bug fixed :bug:`997036` (*Vladislav Lesin*).

What happened to Nicole Kidman? She used to be so polished and beautiful. Now she looks as skinny as Nicole Richie and almost like a bobble-head in the last photo. She seems to be covering her tummy a lot so maybe she is pregnant and getting ill from morning sickness. She is at some event to honor Rupert Murdoch.

I'm not exactly sure what Google would do, but since it makes 4x as much from iOS than it does from Android, I don't think it could make its services work less well on iOS and still make that kind of money.
Realistically, of course, these are all big businesses which aren't going to throw away billions of dollars in profit because someone on the internet wanted the other "team" to win.

Take The Long Way Home
Source: South Williamsport, Pa.
Date: Sunday, August 22, 2010 ET
The West region champions from Waipio Little League in Waipahu, Hawaii had a long way to go to get to South Williamsport, Pa. In fact, five little leagues in the international bracket had a shorter distance to travel than the representatives of the US West. That leaves just three teams further away than Hawaii's 4,806 travel miles.
But more than just distance affects these Little Leaguers and their families back at home. These kids and their managers haven't been back to The Aloha State since August 4, and they won't be going home soon either, if they can help it.
"We left Honolulu and went to California [for the regional] and we didn't go back," said manager Brian Yoshii. "I didn't get to go home [before coming here]."
After winning their regional tournament in San Bernadino, the team hopped on a flight to Philly and then a bus ride to Williamsport. That was Tuesday, August 17. But will it be a joyful return when they do go back? Do the boys miss their island home?
"No," echoed a chorus of little voices.
Of course not.
EXTRA INNINGS: The next furthest domestic representative at the 2010 Little League World Series is Auburn Little League out of Auburn, Washington (Northwest)… The three teams further from Williamsport than Waipahu, Hawaii are Japan's Edogawa Minami Little League (6,640 miles), the MEA's Arabian American Little League (6,684 miles) and Asia-Pacific's Fu-Hsing Little League (7,894 miles)… Of the 16 teams here, 12 have traveled 1,000 or more miles to get to the 2010 Series… The closest distance for any team from hometown to Williamsport is 234 miles (Toms River, New Jersey)… Fairfield American Little League out of Fairfield, Conn. has just nine miles on the Toms River crew (243 miles).
Silver Anniversary
Greg Steisslinger, who played in the 1985 Little League World Series for Morristown American Little League from Morristown, Tenn., threw out the ceremonial first pitch prior to Sunday's Hawaii-New Jersey game to celebrate the 25th anniversary of his appearance. Morristown lost to a team from Mexicali, Mexico in the semifinals and beat Canada to finish the tournament in third place.
Only one other team from Tennessee has played in the World Series since Steisslinger and his team played here. Another all-star club from Morristown American played in Williamsport in 1987.
Text Me :)
Just as many of the other regional champs have talked with Major League Baseball players from their respective countries, states and towns, the Hawaii Little Leaguers got their own words of encouragement from their resident pro.
Philadelphia Phillies' outfielder Shane Victorino, a native of Wailuku, Hawaii, got in touch with the West champs earlier this week, calling manager Brain Yoshii's cell phone to chat with the kids, give advice and wish them the best.
And just before taking the field in Sunday's game against the Mid-Atlantic, a text message popped up on Yoshii's phone:
"Good luck today. Tell the boys to play fundamental baseball. -Shane"
And don't worry, he was watching the game too, sending a congratulatory text message as soon as the result was final.
Nothing like a major leaguers as your No. 1 fan.
Hip Hip What?
Travelers to South Williamsport may not have much time this week to watch broadcasting from the ESPN family of networks. However, they have obviously done their fair share of viewing before coming to the Little League World Series, as has been evidenced by the cheers coming from two different fan bases.
Jorge Perez of Mexico and Jorge Gutierrez of Texas have enjoyed chants of "Hip Hip, Jorge!" as they come to the plate. The chant became popular when ESPN began airing a commercial featuring the Yankees' Jorge Posada in which ESPN employees chant the catchphrase as he walks down a hallway of offices.
Almost Famous
Speaking of celebrities at the Little League World Series, what the players don't know is that in one short summer, they each have become one.As Toms River Little League manager Paul Deceglie mentioned when talking about all the things he'll remember and take away from this experience, among the unwavering memories was "the celebrity status that [the players] have, that they don't even know they have, when they go back home."

The Alliance for South Asian AIDS Prevention (ASAAP) is committed to providing health promotion, care and support for self-identifying South Asians living with, at risk of, or affected by HIV/AIDS. The Public has been working for some time with the communications working group at ASAAP, who we partnered with to develop this pocket-sized agency brochure. The brochure folds out to reveal the mission, vision and guiding principles of the organization, as well as outline services and programming.
