…I hadn't been in the Soup Bowls parking lot for more than three minutes when a wiry, bald-headed local named Chicken demanded my name in a tone typically preceding violence.
In as friendly a voice manageable, I responded, "I'm Za—"
"F–k you!" he interrupted just as the k sound sputtered from my mouth. "Get the f–k out of here."
I looked around to assess how realistically threatening this situation was. About 30 feet behind me stood an unconcerned group of dreadlocked Rastafarians gulping down rum and playing dominoes in a dirt driveway. I heard the ping of steel drums pulsing through the speakers at Smoky's Shack from a block down the road, and in front of me was Soup Bowls—the wave that I, like so many surfers, had traveled many miles to surf. It was onshore and windblown with just two guys sorting through the mess, but the wave was working. It peeled from directly in front of a lone rock 50 yards east of me to the spiny, urchin-stamped shoreline at my feet. It was a wave worth traveling to—and consequently fighting for.
Chicken took two steps toward me, so I tightened my fists as my heart knocked at my chest.
"Get the f–k out of here," he repeated as he took another step forward.
I was reluctant to believe it, but it appeared the first act I'd accomplish on my first trip to Barbados—a place globally renowned for good vibrations—was get into a fight. I wasn't sure if that was how things work there, so I accepted the surge of adrenalin, lowered my center of gravity an inch or two, and anticipated the first move.
A half-moon smile shot across his face, and he put his hand on my shoulder.
"I'm just messin' with you," he laughed, "but you are one ugly motherf–ker."
And that was how I met Soup Bowls' staple lifeguard, Chicken. A bit shaken, he assured me that he was genuinely glad to meet me and, like one of the crew, he hopped in our parked car and we reassessed the conditions.
"It'll clean up after this squall comes through," Chicken said. "No wind then." The car was silent for a moment aside from the thump-thump of rain drops when Chicken looked over at me and said, "I hope you're a good surfer; otherwise, this wave will make a mess of you."
His cautionary quip coupled with horror stories about Soup Bowls' toothed reef had my mind racing. The fact that I was on the verge of brawling five minutes earlier didn't help either, and just as our crew decided to get in the water, a wounded surfer hobbled across the parking lot.
Dropping into a set wave the day before, the nose of his board had impaled his right leg, which looked like an anatomy class donation: a swollen calf surgically bisected by 60 stitches. After limping to shore and waiting in a blood puddle for three hours, a lifeguard (presumably Chicken) was located and directed him to medical attention.
Pretending none of these things bothered me, I followed TJ, Torrey, and Sterling across the coral heads and into the lineup. The moment we touched water, the sky purged itself, the wind screeched a witch's howl, and I thought to myself, "Welcome to Soup Bowls."

To a traveller lost in the gathering gloom of a mountain evening, it looks positively other-worldly. Peeping out from among the pine trees, curved and pointed tips of glowing glass echo the lines of the snow-capped mountain peaks that loom on the horizon. It could be the palace of the Snow Queen. In fact, it's something almost as marvellous: it's one of Switzerland's finest spas, the Tschuggen Grand Hotel.
Eye-catching architecture is just one of the tools that Europe's top spa hotels are using to compete in the brave new world of wellness. With the Asian spa model spreading around the globe, Europe's grand spa resorts are having to up the ante – and they are rising to the challenge in spectacular fashion.
To be fair, they have had some practice in the art of reinvention. The Tschuggen Grand Hotel, for instance, has been reshaped several times since it was launched in 1888 as an alpine sanatorium. The most recent renovation, in 2005, put the wellness concept firmly at the core of the hotel's offering.
"The aim was not to be a grand hotel with a wellness area but to be a wellness oasis," explains hotel general manager Leo Maissen. "We asked ourselves, how can we best give our guests the chance to unwind? That requires a completely different way of operating the hotel. We have to consider not just what's good for the body but what's good for the soul."
The eye-catching design by architect Mario Botta is certainly soul-nurturing but it is also practical: the glass peaks channel daylight into the Tschuggen's sprawling 5000 square metre spa.
While the design echoes the hotel's mountain setting, however, the therapy menu features treatments from as far afield as India, Hawaii and Sweden. Nevertheless, according to Maissen, the local touch remains.
"Our signature treatments are very opulent," he says. "They're influenced by our surroundings, such as our whey bath and our chocolate massage."
Not to be left behind, other leading spas in Austria and Germany are reinventing their wellness offerings, jettisoning outdated approaches such as regimented treatments – described by one general manager as "summer camp for grown-ups" – while sticking with their traditional strengths, which include those spectacular mountain settings.
"Our basis is in our location, here in the national forest: where we are, the road ends and nature starts," says Nikolai Bloyd, general manager of Schloss Elmau. Like the Tschuggen, this venerable Bavarian retreat, which will celebrate its century in 2014, has long been a year-round destination, drawing alpine hikers in the summer and skiers in the winter.
Since reopening in 2007 after a two-year renovation, however, the spa has been one of its principal drawcards, competing with its Michelin-starred restaurants and its program of world-class musical events.
There has been a very deliberate decision to invest in the spa side of the operation. While €35 million ($44 million) was spent upgrading the hotel, another €30 million was spent solely on the spa – and the results are astonishing. There are four swimming pools, including an outdoor saltwater pool and a natural pool by the river, 14 saunas and steam rooms, and the largest hammam west of Istanbul, covering 500 square metres.
Families have a dedicated spa, with five saunas and steam rooms. Parents can book their littlies in for treatments while they relax with a massage of their own, or they can check them into the hotel's childcare facility, which operates from 9am to 9pm.
Guests can enjoy everything from yoga workshops to hiking programs, tai chi and Feldenkreis to massage techniques from around the world. Internationally renowned therapists feature regularly in the program but Bloyd says his staff are soloists in their own right.
Each has a unique speciality, from Ayurvedic treatments to Thai massage. Bloyd says the Turkish hammam master is a favourite with guests, offering a wide range of treatments and converting many guests who have never been interested in the hammam concept before.
The rejuvenated hotel has won a number of accolades, including Hotel of the Year 2011 from the respected German food, travel and wine magazine Der Feinschmecker. However, in the awards stakes at least, it has been pipped at the post by another newly rejuvenated hotel, the Klosterbrau in Austria.
Shortly after reopening, following a renovation that lasted 3½ years, the Klosterbraeu beat 600 competitors to be awarded "best spa concept" at ITB Berlin, the leading travel industry trade show. At this year's ITB, it made it a quinella, scoring the gong for "best spa team", "which shows we've got the software right", hotel manager Alois Seyrling concludes happily.
He says that getting the wellness offering right in today's market is a challenge.
"Guests have a broad range of expectations," he says. "Some want the medicinal, nutritional approach, others want the relaxation approach, focusing on pools and jacuzzis and spas. You have to be able to cater to guests within the entire spectrum."
The Klosterbrau's approach is unlikely to work anywhere except at this property – the site of a 500-year-old monastery that has been owned by the same family for 200 years. While the spa treatments include such exotic imports as doctor fish – small fish that eat dead skin from your feet – many are based on monastic healing traditions and rituals.
The hand and foot washing ritual that precedes treatments, for example, is inspired by medieval cleansing rituals of the monks, who saw foot washing as a holy act. Other treatments inspired by the property's history include a hay bath – in which the body is oiled, covered lightly with hay and heated – and a bread sauna, which gradually heats the body to 40 degrees.
"It improves circulation and activates your metabolism," Seyrling says, "and we bake a nice sourdough bread at the same time, which you can then enjoy with raw cheese."
But the highlight for many, he says, is the Sinners' Basement, where beer is on tap from pipes that run out of the walls – proof that according to this definition of wellness, feeling good is just as important as being good.

Why not covered calls?
Few days ago I wrote an article Why Writing Covered Calls On Apple Might Be A Bad Idea. I used a methodology of CBOE S&P 500 BuyWrite Index (BXM). This buy-write strategy holds the S&P 500 index and writes a one-month near-the-money covered call on the underlying every month.
Using the 2012 data, I demonstrated that writing covered calls on a volatile stock like Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) would significantly underperform holding the stock only.
The rolling strategy can probably be improved, but it won't change the basic fact that covered calls are much less suited for volatile stocks like AAPL.
Is it really time for a condor?
A few days later, a fellow Seeking Alpha contributor Adam Beaty suggested doing an Iron Condor on AAPL. His thesis was that the IV (Implied Volatility) of AAPL is very high and it cannot "maintain these heightened levels, so we want to be a seller of volatility here."
While I would agree in general that IV of AAPL is very high, who said that it cannot maintain these levels?
Now, before I go into some details about the suggested trade, we need to remember one thing: for every trade we take, there is someone on the other side of the trade. In order to win in the long run, we need to have an edge. As options premium sellers (and Iron Condor trade is about selling premium), we have two long term edges:
- The first edge is the fact that over time, options tend to be overpriced. That means that on average, the IV (Implied Volatility) is slightly higher than the HV (Historical Volatility). If you accept that, then we are in agreement that we are selling an overpriced product and over time, we should be able to make money.
- The second edge is our ability to control the risk and manage the trade. The risk/reward of Iron Condors is usually not good. In the suggested AAPL trade we will risk $4 to make $1. However, we are compensated by high probability of success - we probably will win 80% of the time. The trick is not to lose too much in the 20% of the cases when the trade goes wrong. The rule of thumb is not to lose more than 1.5 times on the losing trades than we make on the winning trades. So if we typically make $100 on a $500 Iron Condor, we should not lose more than $150 on the losing trades.
Where is the edge?
Now lets go back to the AAPL trade.
Do we still have the first edge on a stock like AAPL? I'm not so sure. AAPL's HV has been higher than the IV for extended periods of time. That means that you are not compensated enough for the risk you take by selling those options.
Do we still have the second edge? Again, not sure. Our ability to control the risk and to limit the losses depends on the fact that the underlying behaves "normally", meaning there are no serious gaps. If there is an opening gap, it seriously hurts our ability to control the losses. For a stock that can move $25-30 within few hours, the Iron Condor P/L will fluctuate too much.
The author also suggests using the February options for the trade. AAPL usually reports after January expiration, which means that February options are going to be very expensive. There is no reason to believe that they will be cheaper a month from now (in terms of IV) than they are today.
All this doesn't mean that the trade cannot work. The IC range of $445-660 is wide enough and if the stock remains in the current trading range of $520-580 for the next few weeks, the trade can definitely be profitable. The key is to take profits early like the author suggests and not wait till expiration. However, if the stock breaks out of the current range in the next couple of weeks, the trade will start losing money quickly. It doesn't have to trade near $445 or $660, anything near $500 or $600 in the next couple weeks - and you are looking at a significant loss. This is only $50 points from the current levels, AAPL already proved it can move that much in a matter of 2-3 days.
The point we need to remember is that high IV by itself does not mean that selling volatility is a good move. Not in case of Apple. I have no reason to believe that IV will decrease in the next few weeks.
How do we trade it now?
I recommended the Iron Condor trade to Seeking Alpha readers several times. The Iron Condor from January 10, 2012 produced a 28% gain in 2 weeks. The Iron Condor from March 5, 2012 produced a 18% gain in one week. However, AAPL is a different animal now. The AAPL that we knew does not exist anymore. It is much more dangerous and risky now, and the market doesn't know yet how to handle this new animal.
If you are a long time investor who still believes in the value of the company and doesn't care about daily or monthly fluctuations - just buy the stock and enjoy the ride. Despite growing competition and shrinking margins, the stock probably presents a good long term value at the current levels. However, if you are a trader, the only way to trade AAPL right now is with very short term options trades. This can involve:
- Straddles/strangles if you don't want to bet on direction;
- Bull credit put spreads on any pullback to the $520 area;
- Bear credit call spreads on any strength to the $560 area.
Any trade should include very tight stop losses and be closely followed.
Apple is reporting earnings at the end of January, and I'm going to share few ways to trade earnings with my subscribers and Seeking Alpha readers. Stay tuned.
Please trade responsibly.

As I was totally unaware of this discussion and independantly came up
with the same suggestion, this might indicate that it makes some sort
of sense ;-) I think it's best for the community this way.
>1.2 can be released much quicker this way
Yes, there have been many improvements over 1.1 and this IMHO
qualifies for another milestone, another stable release.
>and we'll have time to work out the issues in 5.3.
I really hope that the 5.x choice is a good one. Other BSD branches
are more known for smaller footprint and hardware efficiency, I'd
appreciate it if one could at least consider another base OS platform.
They are all free and have their similiarities, just because a
possibly unpopular person may lead a branch does not necessarily mean
that this is a bad platform.
>There are a lot of improvements in the 1.2 betas (5.3 not being one
>of them) that we'd like to have released sooner rather than later.
I agree on both issues, IMHO the 5.3 experiment was no success. I
personally cannot see the slightest advantage over 4.10 on m0n0's
primary platform (embedded PCs). Downgrading from 1.2b6 to 1.2b3 today
really opened my eyes, how fast the (https) WebUI was before, how
little CPU and RAM everything used ... yet with almost identical
I am very glad and relieved, that the development returns to old Unix
virtues and (to me) makes much more sense again.
Thank you very much for this highly appreciated feedback, I am quite
sure that other users will read this with relief.
Kind regards Frederick

Did you know?
The hide-out of the infamous Stander Gang robbers is featured on a ghost tour of Johannesburg.
If you had the time, a Johannesburg ghost tour could last for a couple of days. A lot has happened to the people of this relatively young gold mining city, and in Jozi (as the city is affectionately known) the ghosts don't just walk; they shuffle and dance, in keeping with the electric spirit of Africa's urban powerhouse.
There have been murders in Johannesburg to rival gangland Chicago in its heyday. Murders most foul indeed, and the historic Queen of Gore was the eerie-looking Daisy de Melker, who took to poisoning members of her family with strychnine to claim the insurance money on their deaths. They say she's still running around the Supreme Court building where she was sentenced to die by the rope.
The Mystery Ghost Bus Tour takes you to some of the haunted places of Johannesburg, with the guide telling of famous society murders and the 'head in the lake' homicide story which gripped local headlines nearly 40 years ago.
But the first Johannesburg ghost stories came from the miners who arrived here in the late 1880s and began to fight, scrabble and plunder for their share of the rich seam of gold that runs through the area.
Then there are the ghosts of the Anglo-Boer War, in the form of dispossessed women, children and migrant workers. Then the ghosts of the apartheid-era, mostly from Soweto, who are all remembered in various museums across Gauteng.
And now, in the modern era, have come the ghosts of serial killers and their victims . In fact, a developmental plan was devised in 2002 to establish a chilling tourist route and museum to tell their blood-stained stories. But this history is still a little too fresh to be included in a Johannesburg ghost tour.

If you have questions about vocal technique or Breathing Coordination MDH, or if you'd like to make an appointment for a consultation or session, please feel free to contact me at 818-219-8226. You may also find information about Breathing Coordination MDH at www.breathingcoordination.ch.
Thank you for your patience. I'm in the process of rebuilding this site to include the Breathing Coordination MDH work which has become so integral to my own singing as well as to my students and clients.
First introduced to Breathing Coordination in 2011 at a voice lesson in New York with my long-time voice teacher David Jones, I've began receiving training from Robin De Haas and Lynn Martin beginning in 2012, and as I wrap up roughly 350 hours of intensive training, I hope to become the first certified practitioner of their procedures in the United States. The demand for this technique has been staggering to me. What begins with introducing an existing voice student to Breathing Coordination inevitably leads to a chain of referrals of other singers, teachers, and a whole range of people with breathing challenges. These can be high-performance athletes or the very ill suffering with COPD, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Of course the technique serves singers beautifully, and I've often heard the very words I used myself when I made this discovery: "This is the missing piece!"
Although many in the fields of singing, Pilates, athletics, respiratory therapy etc. have long been aware of the challenge of exhaling more fully without locking the ribs, I'm astounded by the level of precision that Lynn and Robin have brought to the techniques of the late Carl Stough.
Carl Stough was a renowned voice teacher and conductor who, when asked to try to help end-stage emphysema patients to breathe more easily, worked instinctively. Through one-on-one sessions with every imaginable kind of client, he developed Breathing Coordination over many decades of private without being able to explain exactly what he was doing and why he achieved such astounding results, including the 1968 U.S. Olympic track team which swept the gold medals in very smoggy, high-altitude Mexico City. But despite requests from the medical profession to train others to do what he was doing, Carl was unable to spread the techniques effectively. All that remained after Carl passed were a handful of enthusiastic clients who had taken sessions with Carl, only a few of whom attempted to duplicate his work.
It was Lynn Martin's thirty years of sessions with Carl Stough combined with her accomplishments in Functional Anatomy and Ideokinesis that have brought about the medical understanding of Breathing Coordination. Everything is rooted firmly in functional anatomy. In my own studies with Lynn, we have focused intensely on every structure in the body, whether muscle, bone, or cartilage, which has any part of or influence on on the breathing cycle. Every rib, the roughly 100 articulations of the ribcage, intercostal muscles, the abdominal muscles, the spinal column and optimal alignment, the psoas, the crura of the diaphragm, etc.. The list is nearly endless, and the process is truly fascinating. Certainly I find it immensely rewarding to help singers to improve their breath control, but the other benefit for singers is much more important, and that's vocal health.
Robin De Haas, a voice teacher in Switzerland who's is renowned all over Europe for his work with repairing damaged voices, has been tremendously informative. I'll write more in time as much is happening!
I'm so excited to see the developments in 2014 and 2015 as we begin to see an explosion of interest of Breathing Coordination according to the principles of Lynn Martin and Robin De Haas. I'm so grateful to David Jones for introducing me to these two extraordinary people.

Triangulations with Circular Arcs
Aichholzer, Oswin and Aigner, Wolfgang and Aurenhammer, Franz and Čech Dobiášová, Kateřina and Jüttler, Bert and Rote, Günter (2012) Triangulations with Circular Arcs. In: Graph Drawing 19th International Symposium, GD 2011, September 21-23, 2011, Eindhoven, The Netherlands , pp. 296-307 (Official URL: http://dx.doi.org/ 10.1007/978-3-642-25878-7_29).

An important objective in the choice of a triangulation is that the smallest angle becomes as large as possible. In the straight-line case, it is known that the Delaunay triangulation is optimal in this respect. We propose and study the concept of a circular arc triangulation— a simple and effective alternative that offers flexibility for additionally enlarging small angles—and discuss its applications in graph drawing.

By Reid Cherner, USA TODAY
MEMPHIS Thirty-six-year-old Brian Davis walks down Beale Street like he owns the place. Which, of course, he doesn't.
So far all he's done is make a down payment to buy the NBA's Memphis Grizzlies. It is unclear whether it is Davis who is drawn to the people here or vice versa.
As he strolls the historic district on a Sunday morning, he's greeted by a minister, a musician, shopkeepers and even the homeless. Servers at the King's Palace Café take his picture as he sips orange juice. Rarecas Bonds shouts to him from across the street, and the two hug.
"Just paying my respects, you know," says Bonds, 25, leader of the Beale Street Flippers, a group of acrobats that's grown from performing on streets to sports arenas.
Who is Davis that, having been to Memphis just a handful of times, he can garner such affection?
Being 6-foot-7 in a tailored black suit certainly brings attention and not just a little charisma. Being an African-American brings another kind of respect. But in the end it seems that few can resist the charm of a dreamer.
College basketball fans remember Davis as a forward on the Duke teams that won NCAA titles in 1991 and 1992. But in this town he is the businessman who has formed a group to buy the Grizzlies while also promising to bring $500 million to $1 billion of development money into the city.
"We want to elevate what is going on downtown," Davis says. "To bring in more hotels ... more retail and residential areas and fill in the dead spots. Regionally, Memphis has the opportunity to be the epicenter of the entertainment world. Hopefully, jobs will go up, pay will go up and that is the full cycle."
The managing partner of Blue Devil Ventures, Davis began in real estate by converting tobacco warehouses in Durham, N.C., into loft apartments, eventually extending his holdings to Pennsylvania.
He and former Duke teammate Christian Laettner will put in $40 million of their own money for the team's purchase. Davis said last week that the rest of the $252 million price tag will be financed by "two major institutions, two individuals" and area investors.
City reminiscent of Durham
The money buys them 70% of the team. The local group that owns the other 30% has the right of first refusal on the team. They have 60 days to match Davis' offer. It is up to Davis to answer any concerns by the group. His wife Marsha, and sons Brian Jr., 5, and Brock, 3, will move here from Washington, D.C.
"It (Memphis) reminded me so much of Durham, and I loved that it already had an incredible infrastructure with its culture and music, its people and Beale Street," he says. "There were so many things that made it a historic city, namely Martin Luther King and the civil rights museum. Being an African-American studies major, that was very important to me."
As a kid in Atlantic City, Davis had been planning his own business monopoly and for more than a decade plotted to own his own team. That was fueled by the 23 months he worked in the NBA offices during the mid-1990s.
"Let's just say I prepared myself for it," Davis says. "I told (NBA Commissioner) David (Stern) I would come back after a few years developing Durham when I would have the financial wherewithal to try to make it happen."
Says Stern: "Brian was a valued employee, a good person of high standards who was determined to make a difference."
So it will be Davis, not Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson or Larry Bird, who becomes the first player to be the lead owner of a team.
"I believe that guys who have the name recognition should start to push the envelope," says Davis, who played one season in the NBA.
Davis told The (Memphis) Commercial Appeal that another partnership plans to buy the operating rights to Major League Soccer's D.C. United for $33 million. "We need to let people see that athletes are more than just guys running around. They have a conscience."
All of which has Davis prepared for his first meeting with other NBA owners. A meeting in which, besides Charlotte Bobcats owner Robert Johnson, he'll be the only African-American.
"I'm figuring that a lot of these guys are not interfacing with a lot of young black guys," Davis says. "I can say 'I can go places you can't go and you can go places I can't go, and this is an opportunity for us to come together.' "
Other owners may see meetings as de rigueur; Davis sees it as "how the world changes." That's his big picture. "Brian Davis in a room with these guys is an acknowledgement that we've grown as a country, that we're making progress and we are going to get there. ... It gives people an opportunity to see what black people are all about. I think we are dynamic, and we're not all the same," he says.
Those who believe that Davis' dreams are too big or too crazy are not those who know him best.
"Brian is different from a lot of people," says his wife, a lawyer who owns a hair products company. "He thinks big and makes his dreams come true. He is not crazy; he just thinks a lot bigger than most people."
Even in the hard times growing up in New Jersey and Washington, D.C., his family watched him hatch career plans.
"He's just someone who had a mission, who went all the way," says his mother, Carol Neal, a social worker. "He has vision, and he had confidence. It seems like he's a natural, but it's because he works so hard to make it look that way."
The harder the task the sweeter the victory, according to Davis.
"Being difficult is the challenge; it is what's fun," Davis says. "And not to have fun would be unimaginable because I'm happy. That begins with your wife and kids, so anything that exists above (after) today is 'and one.' "
Not surprisingly, Davis promises to be an enthusiastic owner, but few may see it outwardly.
Despite saying "I'll probably dress like Pat Riley but feel like Mark Cuban," Davis wants to emulate the Dallas owner's positive drive, not his public demeanor.
"I wouldn't sit on the bench. I'm a cool guy, not a rah-rah guy," he says. "I'm talking about corporate enthusiasm, enthusiasm in the marketing campaign. It would look very laid-back."
Hoping to learn from Jerry West
Still, Davis would be the boss and many decisions will be his alone.
"As they try to become more familiar with this team in particular, they have indicated that this will be a very exciting time for them to come in, take over this team and put their fingerprints on it," Grizzlies President Jerry West said of Davis and Laettner.
But Davis is adamant that he isn't buying a team to play out a real-life fantasy league. West is acknowledged as one of the game's sharpest minds. Davis plans to pick that brain, not try to change it.
"I've developed into a really good listener, and Jerry is a brilliant mind," Davis says. "I would want to suck that up as much as possible."
And who knows where that knowledge will take Davis. Perhaps his mother gives the best clue: "He is one of those who will surprise you only because of how big of something he's working on."

I've hiked/run/jogged the loop several dozen times (I used the loop as my training grounds for my hike up Mauna Loa in the summer of '95) and have enjoyed each occasion. The trailhead begins at the top of Aiea Heights Drive at the Keaiwa Heiau State Recreation Area. You can either do the traditional clockwise route that begins next to a restroom building in the upper lot, or you can begin near the lower campground and hike the loop counterclockwise.
What's more, from the Aiea Loop, you can take trails leading to Kalauao Stream (I know of three routes one can take to the stream). In addition, there's a little-known trail that follows a ridge to basically bisect the loop.
If you do the Aiea Loop, be prepared for muddy sections, particularly on the upper end of the loop near Pu'u Uau (elevation 1,656 feet)--the halfway mark--and on the lower sections near the riverbed. As I mentioned earlier, the route is well-traveled and relatively easy to negotiate, so much so that when I do it, I run about 80% of the distance. And I'd run more if I were willing to risk jogging through mud-filled sections of the trail. Not one to imitate female mud wrestlers, I opt to tread gingerly through these bogs; I'd urge you to do the same.
Just past the upper halfway point, you'll have some nice view into upper Halawa Valley and the still-under-construction H-3 freeway. There's something surreal about being way up in the mountains and suddenly looking down at a brand spanking new tunnel and viaduct springing out of the base of a mountain in a pristine valley. In a few years when H-3 opens, I'll use it to drive to my job at Leeward Community College in Pearl City. On my daily commute, I'm sure I'll gaze mauka and smile knowingly, for I have been there.

Over in the mad world, CIP castigates his fellow countryfolk for promoting torture. AFAIK we're not doing that (except very quietly and discretely, one suspects) so instead we're going for detaining people for implausibly long times. We're currently at an insane 28 days and our glorious leader wants to extend this to a totally barking 56 days. At least thats less than the 90 they wanted at one point.
Unfortunately most of the debate is over how extending 28 would be bad; I don't see anyone saying that even 28 is grossly illiberal.
One silly piece of humour that came out of this was the sad saga of Minister Lord "Simple Sailor" West, who Dared to Disagree, at least briefly. But after Number 10 stomped on him he toed the party line. See grauniad or BBC.
And we still have all the f*ck*ng insane restrictions on plane baggage (not that I care, I'm not flying for the forseeable future and who knows it might put a few people off) and other madness. Still, it beats doing something useful on climate change and may distract the Public for a while. James notes that the friendly Japanese are planning to fingerprint us all; but as I recall the US fingerprinted and retina-photographed me just for transitting through LA. At least our trains are currently sane (I mean, in terms of security, of course), though the govt are working on that.
Oh, and before I go, let me moan at you a bit more… "Tourists visiting the capital often question why there are no litter bins on the London Underground. The simple answer, wearily repeated by staff, is "security". " [bbc]. I suspect that the answer is "Its a lot cheaper and more convenient not to have to bother empty them, and security provides a convenient excuse".

Australia's finest young football talent will eventually head offshore. We should expect and celebrate this, providing their progression makes sense and is properly handled in the best interests of the player and the broader game.
Australia's future star players need to compete regularly in the UEFA Champions League to transmit this experience to our international teams. The impact on the game in Australia of the likes of Harry Kewell, Mark Schwarzer and Tim Cahill competing in the world's most glamorous competitions should never be underestimated.
But we all have a stake in where our best talents go overseas because we have an investment in their careers. It's not only emotional but a very real financial stake that needs a return for the good of the game here and the national team down the track.
FFA owns the A-League and provides loss coverage every season as well as major investments in youth programs at state and national level, much of which is funded by us, the taxpayers, and which goes to developing young players.
Every participant in football, indeed every Australian, has a direct interest in ensuring that our young players are properly managed and supported throughout their careers, most particularly in the early stages when statistics demonstrate clearly the first move abroad is the most risky. It can build, or kill, a promising career.
Some years ago, FFA announced a mentoring program by former Socceroos to guide the youngsters and their parents through the maze that is the world of football, an initiative which was never fully implemented and existed in name only. Many could do with the advice.
It can be daunting, exciting and worrying to be chased by clubs you watched only on television as a boy, to have the media writing of your skills and stellar future, and to have agents chasing your signature with all manner of offers and talk of former stars they have nurtured. Little wonder most youngsters, and their unsuspecting families, do not know which way to turn.
Surely we can organise a better way. Like any business, there are some excellent agents and some not so, but it is clear that leaving a young player's football future entirely to market forces is a poor return on dollar spent. Both that of the government, and the game.
Professional Footballers Australia has the knowledge to steer youngsters in a direction best suited to their talent, mentality and maturity and could do so to the greater benefit of the game. However this would require a greater strategic alliance between the game and the players, something I am hoping David Gallop is motivated and savvy enough to achieve, followed by a greater allocation of resources to an entity which works with, mentors and guides our young players.
We are all complicit in A-League clubs - and not only the Mariners- in pushing youngsters out the door to bring in much-needed capital, because the league is not yet in a strong enough commercial position to hold on to them for longer.
Keeping our best talents at home in their developmental stages is a priority but will take place only when the competition is better managed commercially. This is the challenge faced by Gallop in the next few years.
Competing coaches must be delighted that Graham Arnold is losing his best young players, who are impossible to replace in the short term. But, for the remainder of us, it compromises the integrity of the competition when, for two years running, the standout coach in the league has had his chase for success hijacked to balance the books.
The point of the salary cap is competitive balance but it is abundantly clear the disparity between top and bottom is massive. Not tens of thousands, nor hundreds of thousands, but many millions of dollars.
So, too, are the Mariners' fans being short-changed because they have a right to expect every decision to be geared towards on-field success.
Other clubs have marquee players, Australian marquee players, high-quality foreigners ripping the league up every weekend and under-23 marquee players and Arnold is beating them all on a shoestring but, now, he's shoeless.
We need to implement a system to better guide our young players and place them in the most appropriate environments when they are ready, otherwise our long-term international future will suffer.

In addition, the clock's mechanism underwent renovation.
Although fixing clocks isn't the usual task, there isn't much that the Museum's skilled Restoration staff cannot handle!

As part of a new restaurant trend to engage Millennials, Blimpie, is launching mobile game apps. Blimpie Run, available on Android and iOS operating systems, is part of a new mobile marketing strategy in Blimpie's brand overhaul that also includes new store designs and menu offerings to attract Millennials.
In the game, Blimpie's familiar mascot, Del E. Fresh, runs through different U.S. cities to collect fresh ingredients on his way to the nearest Blimpie sub shop. Del E. Fresh has to outrun skunks, scorpions and other predators while avoiding unique obstacles in different cities. App users have a monthly chance to win free subs for a year and the opportunity to collect app-exclusive offers to redeem at their local Blimpie store. They can also utilize Facebook® and Twitter® to share their high scores or challenge friends to beat their score.
The app is just one facet of Blimpie's brand overhaul as the sub chain prepares to celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2014. The brand refresh includes new store designs and menus, all to appeal to younger customers. Store designs include brighter colors, expansive wall murals of Americana images, and booth seating for a more comfortable atmosphere.

The average American household has about $9,200 in credit card debt. I hope you're in the bottom end of average. I've busted more than this already in 2009 (and it's only February) and I have just slightly more than this left to go before my debt-free goal of July 2009. It's going to be close but I have faith that we can beat it. What then? I think we'll go to Disney Land (but not until we've saved for it).
CNN Money's Get Out of Debt calculator:
Enter your debts (they're optimistic as there's only five lines but an option to add more). Choose from the following options:
1. Fixed Payments (how long 'til I'm debt-free?)
2. Minimum payments (how long will it be and how much will I pay?)
3. Debt-free deadline (what do I have to do to be debt free by my desired date?)
This calculator is anonymous and produced by a reliable source (CNN). It is very, very easy to use. Unfortunately, one thing it fails to mention is that this payoff plan will only work if you put those cards through the shredder!
Living on a Dime:
You don't have to get out all your statements, but you should know what you owe in total and the average interest rate. Plug those in the boxes and you can click "show me the light" which will say how long it will take and what it will cost to be rid of your debt. Another cathartic, though not very useful button is "take it all away" which simply clears the boxes. I realize this is likely so you can re-enter different information and try it again. I put in the same info and "took it all away" several times in lieu of paying a therapist today. I feel better already.
Bankrate.com's Debt Calculator:
Bankrate.com is a Web site for those shopping for credit cards. If you feel like you'll be compelled to try… don't bother, use one of the earlier links. This is a pretty good calculator though. It also shows the interest rates of some other cards. I hope your rates are better than theirs. I know mine are.
What all of these fine organizations fail to do is to remind you to sit down and chop up that card. I'm saving my chopped up card chips for a craft project. Maybe a mobile, or a mosaic or a Christmas Tree ornament. I'm waiting for the inspiration to come to me. (I have strategically tossed some chips from each card in hopes of preventing my relapse into using the cards, but it feels so good to be this close to debt-free that I've never felt compelled to use the cards or order replacements.
Another thing that these sites fail to mention is that if you haven't called in the past three months for a lower rate, you need to do it. Will your card company do a 0% balance transfer from another card? Will they reduce your interest rate for even a short time? I called back in December and got my rates lowered on almost all of my cards. One even told me to call back each month for a lower rate, and would you know, it's working? My credit card interest rate is now between 5%-8% and it is 0% on one card until August.
Take a look at my post earlier about my results with this technique.
Not having any luck with credit card companies lowering their rates? Many people are using Lending Club to consolidate their credit cards into a single lower-rate loan. I'm an investor (yep, I invest in these kinds of consolidation loans!) with Lending Club, and I'm really happy with the company.
Also, if you're looking to consolidate, be sure to get rid of those cards so you don't just start over!

Amsterdam To Bail Out Prostitutes?
Although prostitution is legal in Amsterdam, working girls still have trouble getting banks to give them credit and loans. But officials working on "Project 1012″ are trying to change all that. Under this plan, peeps are talking to banks, trying to get them to cooperate with the ladies of the night. They're hoping that, within the next few months, prostitutes will have more access to the financial support they need. Is it just me, or does this sound a lot like a red-light district bailout?
