After looking around for a decent used longboard for a while, I finally pulled the trigger on a 9'0\" Stewart LSP I found on craigslist. This is my first longboard and I'm looking for some help with the fin.

The board came with the fin shown below. It's 6.5\". It just seems kind of short to me. Is a reasonable fin to use or is it too short for this board? Not sure if I will be using side bites or not, with probably experiment with and without.

If this thing is too short, what would a decent, basic fin be for this board? I know it depends on what I want to do with the board. Mostly I just plan on riding it on smaller days (bought the longboard just to get me out more in the summer). Just trying to figure out what a good base is to try out first, can always change it up down the road.

About me: 6'0\", 175 lbs, 28 y/o, surfing for 2.5 yrs. Boards I usually ride are a SB and a retro fish.

Thanks guys.

Jackson effective in Cubs debut, but bats go cold
Offense manages just two hits in shutout loss to Rodriguez, Pirates
PITTSBURGH -- The Cubs wore face masks and extra layers to cope with the 35-degree cold, and overloaded the lineup with right-handed hitters in an attempt to deal with lefty Wandy Rodriguez.
Rodriguez and the weather won.
Andrew McCutchen hit a RBI double and scored on an error by shortstop Starlin Castro to lead the Pirates to a 3-0 victory Wednesday over the Cubs.
The temperature at game time was 35 degrees, but it felt colder, and Cubs manager Dale Sveum was wearing a battery-operated heated vest. What's the best way to hit in the cold?
"Punt," Sveum said. "I had to do it when I came up with Milwaukee, playing in County Stadium. It's not about the cold sometimes, but how much your eyes water, especially if there's any kind of breeze in your face. That's the most difficult thing. When you're in the batter's box, you don't know it's that cold."
Rodriguez (1-0) was the problem at PNC Park. The lefty limited the Cubs to two hits over 6 2/3 innings to spoil Edwin Jackson's Cubs debut.
"The pitchers are at a disadvantage [in the cold] sometimes, too, trying to get a feel for the ball and all that, but Wandy obviously had a pretty good feel," Sveum said.
Jackson (0-1) struck out the side in the first, effectively fooling the Pirates with his slider, and gave up one hit over the first three innings. Garrett Jones then singled to open the Pirates fourth and scored on McCutchen's double to left. One out later, the Cubs infield was in, and McCutchen tallied on Castro's error when the shortstop muffed an attempt at a backhanded grab of a grounder by Gaby Sanchez.
"When the infield's in, and the ball's hit to your right and they're going on contact, it's kind of a do or die -- you can't really do much setting yourself or anything," Sveum said. "You've got to somehow backhand that and get rid of it, and with McCutchen running, too, there's not a whole lot you're going to do with that."
This was Jackson's first loss to the Pirates in seven career starts, and not how he wanted his first Cubs start to go.
"I felt I made one mistake that inning and that was the double," Jackson said. "I still feel like we had a chance to try to get out of that inning and try to salvage it. That was pretty much my rough inning, and the inning they got two runs. With a team like we have that's capable of doing the things we can, if that's a rough inning and you give up two runs, then I'll take that. It's just a tough one for us tonight."
"Obviously, he has the stuff," Sveum said of the right-hander, who signed a four-year, $52 million contract with the Cubs this offseason. "I think now for him, it's time to take it to another level with that kind of stuff."
With the loss, the Cubs have not opened a season 2-0 since the 1995 team began 4-0. Jackson tried to stay upbeat.
"The main thing is, you want to get the season jump-started in a positive direction," Jackson said. "It wasn't a bad game, it wasn't the best game. You try to keep the team close.
"It's a long season and you can help yourself out, getting ahead of batters a little earlier," he said. "Wandy went out and pitched a good game. Sometimes you just have to tip your hat. He made pitches when he had to."
The Cubs had a chance in the seventh. They loaded the bases with one out when Anthony Rizzo was hit by a pitch, Alfonso Soriano singled and Welington Castillo was plunked. Brent Lillibridge battled Rodriguez in a 10-pitch at-bat, which ended with the Cubs infielder called out on strikes on a curve.
"I couldn't locate my fastball," Rodriguez said. "[Catcher] Russell [Martin] came out and asked me what I wanted to throw, so I said, 'Breaking ball, because I can't locate the fastball.'"
Said Pirates manager Clint Hurdle: "That's a pro's pitch. A kid isn't going to throw that pitch. Maybe for a chase, but not for a strike."
That was Rodriguez's last pitch, and Tony Watson took over and got Alberto Gonzalez to fly out to end the inning.
In two games, Chicago is 0-for-13 with runners in scoring position.
"We've got to get better at that," Sveum said.
Jackson's next start will be the Cubs' home opener Monday against the Brewers at Wrigley Field.
"It should be fun, home opener, especially if we can come off this road trip with a winning road trip," Jackson said. "I'm sure it'll be exciting and there will be a lot of adrenaline."
And, hopefully warmer.

Are you cutting costs left and right but still can't stop your wallet from draining? Put a plug in it by dropping your vices.
Fellow frivolous spenders, this one's for you.
Thanks to "The True Cost of Your Vices," a new eBay Deals interactive quiz, spendthrift consumers can get an idea of how much they can save annually by skipping out on the items that tug at their pockets the most.
The eBay Deals team crunched the numbers and found that the most common vices are alcohol, cigarettes, coffee, fast food, lottery tickets and sodas.
"Across the board, we could each save an average of $1,300-plus a year if we quit these vices," says Katie Valente, senior manager at eBay Deals.
The quiz asks simple questions about whether and how frequently you indulge in the six common vices, and also gives a breakdown of the health risks -- and price tags -- that come with each vice.
I took the quiz and learned I could save a little more than $1,000 a year if I gave up my Starbucks addiction.
"With the average consumer strapped for cash, this extra money could help pay down debt or pad a savings account," Valente says.
You can take the quiz at CostOfYourVices.com.
Which of your vices are you planning to let go?

It's revelatory.
When people are placed in studies in which they play games for money, real cash, the part of the brain stimulated, the area that lights up with colors on monitors, is the same one affected by cocaine use.
As we see in Charles Ferguson's 2010 film, much of the investment-banking crowd on Wall Street was in fact fueled by cocaine — and hookers, of the $1,000-an-hour variety — during the last decade of excesses. The financial "pros" would write off their paid sexual escapades as market or financial research or supply expenses. They'd even write out their own invoices, one madam said.
"They have no problem using a prostitute and going home to their wife," a psychiatrist who treats Wall Street bankers tells the filmmakers.
Wall Streeters took a similarly arrogant and dismissive attitude toward their clients and the American economy. Ferguson shows, in infuriating fashion, that the financial meltdown in 2008, the one from which we are still suffering, was not only predictable, but could have been prevented.
"I finally managed to see the movie," New York Times columnist Paul Krugman wrote recently. "Do see it if you can; it will make your blood boil, and in a good way."
"Inside Job" is not a partisan vehicle. Ferguson's film casts a net of culpability that ensnares Reagan and the Bushes as well as Bill Clinton and Obama, revealing their administrations as foils if not handmaidens for the financial industry.
The film's greatest contribution, however, is not the exposing of the unholy alliance between Pennsylvania Avenue and Wall Street (I'm not going to list all the culprits and their billion-dollar heists) but the dragon-slaying of commonly held opinions in America: The investment community is full of the smartest guys in the room, and our economy depends on them. It's Wall Street as Mount Olympus. We mere mortals can't possibly understand what makes our economy work, or their investments. "Go back to your mutual funds, little people," we are told.
Bull. There's no other way to say it.
Credit default swaps aren't as easy to understand as compound interest, to be sure.
We'd be a better country if all of the people lathered up over gay marriage and collective bargaining by state janitors turned their attention to a basic understanding of our economy. The bankers' arrogance is warranted, in a sense, as the American people, distracted by "Idol" and social issues and "gotcha" stories of a politician offending one demographic or another in YouTube clips, consume the national oxygen, leaving the moneychangers to operate with impunity. We are chasing the wrong villains so much of the time.
Credit default swaps allow speculators to basically bet that people can't pay back loans, to give them a rooting interest in home foreclosures and the like. Billions were invested in these tools — with no regulation and reporting — setting up catastrophe when the housing bubble burst.
These guys aren't Bradley Cooper on that "Limitless" pill. They were playing a rigged game.
The financial sector has 3,000 lobbyists in Washington, D.C. Rating agencies paid by big money houses provided AAA and AA cover to investments that were ridiculously risky. Academics on the payrolls of banking firms rolled out "position papers" arguing for deregulation of lending and investing beginning in the 1980s.
Some investment firms were leveraged at 33 to 1.
And sub-prime loans climbed from $30 billion to $600 billion.
"The low-income buyer can have just a nice a home as anyone else," said President George W. Bush.
President Obama, who sold the nation on a culture of "change," in 2008 went to many of the people who caused the problems in the first place to people his economic team.
In so many ways it is business as usual.
The money men aren't smarter than us. It's a mirage. Too much of America just accepts at face value that the investment community has keys to an exclusive kingdom of knowledge.

A MAN has been cleared of sexually attacking a schoolboy after a trial at Burnley Crown Court.
The jury had heard claims that Kevin O'Connell had asked the alleged victim about his sexual experiences and had allegedly performed an indecent act on the teenager.
But Mr O'Connell said it never happened and, on Friday, was found not guilty.
The defendant, who has no criminal convictions and was represented by Joanna Rodikis, was discharged from the dock by Judge Simon Newell. Mr O'Connell, 65, of Long Causeway, Cliviger, had denied an allegation of indecent assault on a male person, said to have taken place more than a decade ago, during the five-day hearing.
The court had heard how, at the time of the alleged offence, Mr O'Connell had lived in the Burnley area with his two sons.
The hearing was told no complaint was made to the police until November 2012, when the alleged victim came forward and went to the police.
Prosecutor Elizabeth Nicholls had told the jury: "The defendant was only interviewed the following May and during the course of that interview, this defendant denied that he had ever sexually abused the alleged victim as described by him or at all."

CLAY COUNTY, Fla. - Two women arrested Monday in connection with the meth lab raid in which a Clay County deputy was shot and killed in February had a confrontation with Channel 4's Jim Piggott earlier this month.
Jennifer Alder, 38, and Chasity Prescott, 35, both of Middleburg, are now facing first-degree murder charges in the shooting death of Detective David White, among other charges.
They were upset to see Piggott at an Orange Park home April 5, and they shouted profanities at him and his photographer.
Ryan Wilder, 30, of Orange Park, who's also charged with first-degree murder in White's killing, was arrested on charges of possessing and manufacturing methamphetamine the day Piggott showed up.
"They took him. That was my (expletive) brother they took this morning," one of the women said, referring to deputies. "They killed my man" -- "and my uncle," the second woman added.
Ted Tilley, 36, the suspected gunman who investigators said killed White and shot Detective Matt Hanlin, was shot and killed by other deputies the night of the raid.
County Sheriff's Office Detective David White was shot and killed by an armed suspect at a home on Alligator Boulevard in Middleburg, Fla., about 6:25 p.m. Thursday.
Piggott continued to question the women the day he saw them.
"I was (expletive) there last night. How about that one?" one woman said.
Deputies said they followed Wilder back to a home on Fox Valley Drive after watching him buy ingredients used to make meth at several drug stores.
Authorities obtained a long-awaited warrant Monday connecting Wilder to the shootings of the two deputies, charging him with murder.
"We kept pretty close tabs on them the entire time, and it made it fairly easy to locate them when the warrants were actually signed and take them down," Clay County Sheriff Rick Beseler said.
"So you guys were there involved on Alligator (Boulevard)?" Piggott asked the women regarding the meth lab raid and deputy killing.
"Yeah, I was right there," the woman said. "They shot him. He was an unarmed man and they shot him."
Investigators said Alder and Prescott were inside the house the night White was killed. They were arrested Monday.
Prescott's son, 16-year-old Jerry Daniels, and Wilder were already in jail on drug charges. They're also charged with murder.
"He was continuing making meth and buying the listed chemicals to make meth after the incident," Lt. Barry Abromawitz said of Wilder.
It has been a long couple of months for the Clay County Sheriff's Office, family and friends of White, but Beseler said Monday's additional arrests and charges brings some relief.
"Jennifer White (David White's wife) is so appreciative of all the support that has come from the community and the Sheriff's Office and is grateful to know the people who are ultimately responsible for her husband's death are now going to be held accountable," Beseler said.
All four suspects are being held in the Clay County jail without bail.
At least three of them will make their first appearance in court at 8 a.m. Tuesday.

"With our long address, we had to utilize the professional review to get everything on the address label. With their adjustments, everything fits and looks great!"
"the labels turned out pretty, although they do not look like they have a glitter border as in the sample. these labels arrived very quickly in the mail along with other items i ordered. I am pleased with the quality. I will most likely order more items in the future."
"I liked this one quite a bit but it is very delicate looking. Even more so in person with very faint details. I thought the flowers would be a bit more distinguished instead of the outline of petals but it is still VERY PRETTY. Very subtle, pretty and appropriate for spring/summer! Happy to have these as alternate labels!"
"I was so happy to find this on this site and I was even happier when I received it! I couldn't be more pleased with how my invitations looked. This really topped it off by making it more professional and personal. I used my own picture, of course and used majestic purple for the color."
"I ordered these labels to add something to our envelopes for our thank you cards. Everyone loved them! The colors were vibrant in the picture, and the picture came out very clear. It was easy to make and is a great addition. Will be purchasing more."

Brother C & Sister J rock downtown Santa Ana. Photo: David Hall, for OrangeCounty.com
Although it hosted the last of this season's seven preliminary showcases Tuesday night, the historic Yost Theater in downtown Santa Ana provided a backdrop that felt much more like a finale for the OC Music Awards' nearly completed Showcase Series competition.
The venue emits the kind of character that could turn an average show into a great one, and this particular batch provided some very promising examples of regional talent destined for bigger stages.
There would be no limping into things this time, the show kicking off with a feverish set from Brother C & Sister J. While the novelty of a duo is always interesting, the pair belted out their brand of heavy soul, deliberately unpolished and unflinchingly loud.
Guitarist and vocalist Brother C sounded almost ghostly. While the obvious frame of reference is the White Stripes, these two capture a Southern twang that retains real rattle, something that's usually missing from most other garage-rock acts. Finishing out their set by jumping into the crowd and dishing out hand percussion and shakers only reaffirmed that these two are no rookies.
Click here to watch a video of week seven.
The clear hometown favorite, Santa Ana's Electro City, seemingly took cues from the danceable indie-rock craze that struck a chord in the early 2000s, evoking the Maccabees, Foals and Interpol. Guitarist Alex Morr was actually a bit like Johnny Marr, complete with a jingle-jangle style, balanced perfectly with occasional leads that reinforced that this band is no one-trick pony.
The only sore spot for the quartet was the labored, slightly karaoke-esque vocals from Edgar Exciter. While full of potential, Electro City hasn't quite found the exact formula to ensure a total balance between its music and the man on the microphone.
The Kettle Drivers had the unfortunate role of being an instrumental band in the meat of the night's lineup. A trio of musicians' musicians, it was obvious these were the kids in school who were listening to Cream and King Crimson, not Green Day.
Surprisingly, there were no five-minute leads, no funny guitar faces that come requisite for most jam bands; instead, the Kettle Drivers put together detailed songs. Yet, for this crowd, it was a bit like ballet, deserving of appreciation but not very conducive to keeping people engaged.
Easily the most ambitious performers of the night, Time and Energy utilized multi-instrumental loops, warm synth and the occasional saxophone to prove local music can still be interesting. High school seniors who could appreciate the likes of Melt Banana and Clinic, Jorge Rios and Brennan Roach showed instrumental dexterity and crafty songwriting far beyond their youth.
Ironically, the final song they performed before thanking the crowd and their parents for "giving birth to me and all that" was the simplest and strongest: a shoegaze offering backed soley by occasional strum, subtle synth and Rios singing sincerely.
Capping off the night, Long Beach's Decode Radio bombarded the house speakers with a progressive take on pop that was ideal for the big room. Tyler Burns and Eric Stoffel gave the crowd a 30-minute set that suggested if Atticus Ross and Trent Reznor developed a junior varsity team, this might be it. Dynamic bursts of bass layered underneath sweeping vocals provided crescendos that kept the crowd wide-eyed, despite it being after 11 on a rainy weeknight.
The finals take place Feb. 26 at House of Blues Anaheim. Organizers for the OC Music Awards are expected to reveal the five finalists soon on their Facebook page. The winner receives the title best live band, a prize package and a performance slot at the awards ceremony at City National Grove of Anaheim on March 9.
UPDATE: The finalists, as selected by a panel of industry experts, are Nilu, Robert Jon & the Wreck, Fiction Reform, Jeramiah Red and Fan Vote winner Solution.
Also, the 2013 People's Choice nominees are No Doubt, Suburban Legends, the Devious Means, the O.C. Supertones and Whiplash X Band.

ECMC, Kaleida Health to Create Center of Excellence for Behavioral Health Care
|Updated: 2/13/2012
Apply to state for new psychiatric and chemical dependency health facility
Erie County Medical Center and Kaleida Health today announced a joint state application for funding to help consolidate mental health and drug dependency treatment in one $35 million Regional Behavioral Health Center of Excellence at ECMC.
The new center, a physician-driven collaboration between ECMC and Kaleida Health, would create a state-of-the-art, comprehensive psychiatric emergency program and new inpatient facilities to serve mental health patients in the Western New York community.� Dr. Yogesh Bakhai, ECMC Clinical Director of Psychiatry, and Dr. Maria Cartegena, Medical Director, Buffalo General's Department of Inpatient Behavioral Health & Psychiatry at Kaleida Health, will be the physicians leading this initiative.
�The region has needed a Center of Excellence in Behavioral Health for years�, said Dr. Yogesh Bakhai, ECMC Clinical Director of Psychiatry, �Not only do we need to expand our facilities to meet the growing demand, we need to bring together the talents of the region to focus on creating a better model for our patients.�
�This project is solely about the needs of patients. �We recognize that creating exceptional quality care for our patients is not necessarily about a particular location, but about the dedication and expertise of the treatment team",�said Dr. Maria Cartagena, Chief of Psychiatry, Kaleida Health and Medical Director, Buffalo General's Department of Inpatient Behavioral Health & Psychiatry at Kaleida Health. �As a regional�center for psychiatric care, ECMC has the facility and the room to expand our comprehensive services. Additionally, this would allow us to bring the expertise of our physicians and staff together with ECMC's experienced physicians and staff to create a true collaborative effort. The�development of a center of excellence in Psychiatry�would most definitely improve the quality of care for behavioral health patients for generations to come.�
The consolidated model will combine the resources of the ECMC and Buffalo General Medical Center behavioral health programs and will create one 180-bed inpatient psychiatric program, as well as continue ECMC�s current 22 detoxification beds and 20 inpatient chemical dependency rehabilitation beds. The plan also calls for continuing ECMC�s and Kaleida�s Main Street outpatient clinics, along with clinics in Lancaster and North Buffalo. The total cost of the Center, $35 million, would be supported largely by the request to the state for Healthcare Efficiency and Affordability Law-21 funding totaling $25 million. ECMC Corporation and Kaleida Health will fund the remaining $10 million.� The new center, planned to open in March 2014, would expand ECMC�s current emergency behavioral health facilities from 6,500 square feet to 16,000 square feet.
�The vision for this collaboration is driven by a desire to help our patients by creating a Center of Excellence for treatment of the mentally ill and chemically dependent. This is precisely the sort of collaborative thinking that will advance this community,� said ECMC CEO Jody L. Lomeo. �It also provides an opportunity to develop cost-effective, consolidated programs of emergency, outpatient, and inpatient services with one focus: the patients.�� It will be state of the art, and will deliver the care the mentally ill in our community deserve.�
Mental health care in Western New York, like the rest of the state, is fragmented and costly to the state�s Medicaid payment system. In the last 20 years, the Buffalo Psychiatric Center went from 1,200 beds to 160 and the Gowanda Psychiatric and West Seneca Developmental centers closed.� Other inpatient facilities downsized or closed in recent years and while outpatient services exist, there is a lack of coordination among community providers. Psychiatrists are also in short supply throughout the region. It has created a crisis for mental health patients and their families in Western New York.� Mentally ill and chemically dependent patients in crisis are, many times, forced to find care in crowded hospital emergency rooms, which leads to more costly episodic inpatient care and unsafe conditions for clinical staff.
"This important collaboration is a creative solution to delivering care that benefits patients and brings them the very best care,� said Kaleida CEO James Kaskie. �This is yet another tangible example of leveraging the talents, infrastructure, clinical expertise of both ECMC and Kaleida to benefit our community and the patients we serve. �
The integrated model will combine the current outpatient volumes of 44,300 annual visits at ECMC and Kaleida�s 68,829 annual visits with services provided onsite at ECMC and at their community-based locations.
Currently, ECMC has 132 licensed inpatient psychiatric beds with 2,297 annual discharges in 2011 and 57 inpatient rehabilitation/detoxification beds with 1,621 discharges in 2011. Buffalo General Medical Center has 91 licensed inpatient beds with 2,307 annual discharges.
This consolidation represents the third major initiative of Great Lakes Health System of WNY to merge the services of ECMCC and Kaleida Health. The first being the creation of the Gates Vascular Institute on the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus in collaboration with the University at Buffalo and the second being the Regional Center of Excellence for Transplantation & Kidney Care on ECMC�s campus, both HEAL funded initiatives to restructure and right size health care in WNY.

SANDOR EARL has reaffirmed he ''definitely wouldn't say no'' should Quade Cooper ask to fight him, but he is adamant his sole focus is on helping the Canberra Raiders win a premiership.
The winger re-opened his Twitter war of words with the Wallabies playmaker soon after Cooper dispatched Barry Dunnett in his boxing debut on Friday night.
Cooper announced himself on the pro circuit by softening up the car-crash insurance agent with a lightning combination before dropping him with a right in the first round.
However, it clearly did not impress Earl, who watched the highlights after scoring two tries in Canberra's 40-8 trial win against Melbourne. ''Wow really I'd walk through that rite hand! Oh well off to the streets of Brisbane to find ur next bum opponent #embarrassing @QuadeCooper,'' he tweeted.
The message follows the pair's exchange on the social media site last month, when Earl invited Cooper to step into the ring with him should he account for Dunnett. ''Putting it out there if Quade Cooper wins I will throw my hand up to fight him in his next fight!! #watageeup #doitforfree,'' he tweeted.
It would set up a tantalising bout between the two rugby codes with bragging rights up for grabs.
Cooper responded in kind, finishing with, ''Thats ok, I wish you all the best #fringeplayer.''
Earl talked down his playful stoush with Cooper, insisting it was simply tongue in cheek after being egged on by his Twitter followers.
The former Panther stressed he wasn't looking to ''carry on with it'' with Cooper, but said his corner need only call if he wants to arrange a bout.
''I did say I would fight him and I'd highly doubt that would ever come to, but, yeah, I definitely wouldn't say no,'' Earl said.
Sydney Roosters recruit Sonny Bill Williams also fought on the Brisbane card, but his WBA international heavyweight title win over South African Francois Botha is clouded in controversy after the bout ended after 10 rounds, instead of 12 as per WBA rules.
The fact it descended into a circus didn't surprise Earl in the slightest. ''Good on them if they want to set up fights and create something out of football, but I think boxing-wise it was fairly ridiculous,'' he said.
''Each to their own. Sonny Bill is a great athlete and to do well in different sports is a credit to him, but I've got my hands full with rugby league and if you're going to take up boxing, you really have to be doing only one sport, I believe.
''It really lived up to what everybody thought it was going to be like, I think.''

Did you know?
The Cederberg mountain range is named after the endangered Clanwilliam cedar (Widdringtonia cedarbergensis),a tree endemic to the region.
Keen hikers will be itching to take on the challenges of the Cederberg 100 Trail, a new seven day trail that forms part of the Cederberg Heritage Route in the Cederberg Wilderness. Located 300km north of Cape Town, this is one of the most remote regions in South Africa.
This trail features spectacular scenery, colourful flora and welcome hospitality at the scattered Moravian villages along the way. Paths are quite stony, the going involves many uphills and downhills and you may be required to do some wading across waterways.
Thanks to positive hiker feedback, the Cederberg 100 Trail now officially forms part of the portfolio of slackpacking trails offered by the Cederberg Heritage Route, but note that it is only offered in the north-to-south direction and permits are required from Cape Nature.
The trail covers 100km from the summit of Pakhuis Pass in the north to the Driehoek Resort in the central Cederberg. Guides from local communities escort you from one overnight stop to the next.
From the top of the Pakhuis Pass the route leads down via Amon se Vlak, Amon se Poort and Die Toring to Boskloof. On day two the route goes up Krakadouwpoort over Krakadouw Pass to the Moravian village of Heuningvlei for the night.
On the third day the route heads south via the Boontjieskloof Hut and Boontjieskloof to Brugkraal for the night. Day four via Grasvlei takes you past the spectacular waterfalls on the Grasvlei River – pools along the way offer a great way to cool off – and over Middelkopnek to Kleinvlei.
A deviation up Dassieboskloof on day five takes in stunning views of Skerpioensberg and Sneeukop before stopping at Eselbank for the night. Weather permitting on day six you'll head over the mountain to the welcoming village of Langkloof.
The final day takes hikers over Gabriel's Pass, with a deviation to the Wolfberg Arch and Driehoek, where the you'll be met and transported back to Clanwilliam for your final night.

What Will it Take? Reaching People on the Urgency and Solvability of the Climate Crisis
Cathy Zoi, CEO, The Alliance for Climate Protection
Friday, October 19, 2007, 3:30pm
Spanos Auditorium
Quicktime Large (63 MB)
Quicktime Small (46 MB)
This seminar is part of the Jones Seminars on Science, Technology, and Society series and the Abbot Technology Leaders Program
Most scientists agree that climate change is one of the most pressing issues facing the planet. And while public awareness is now high, addressing the climate crisis remains an alarmingly low priority for most people. As CEO of The Alliance for Climate Protection—a new group founded and chaired by Former Vice President Al Gore—Cathy Zoi will discuss The Alliance's 3-year, multi-million dollar campaign to inspire widespread commitment to address global warming. Using an innovative combination of mass media, grassroots organization, and online engagement, The Alliance is building a movement in which individuals take action in their own lives and demand action from their leaders. July's Live Earth global concert was just the beginning. Come hear what else is in store.
About the Speaker
A graduate of Thayer School's M.S. program, Cathy Zoi has spent more than two decades in the energy and environmental sector in both the United States and Australia. She has lead private sector and government organizations in the development of technologies and programs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, including pioneering 'Energy Star' and the world's first national 'Green Power' program. In March 2006 Cathy was profiled in Rolling Stone Magazine as a global warming "Warrior and Hero." She was awarded a Centenary Medal in 2003 by the Australian Government for her contributions to sustainability. In February 2007, she joined the Alliance for Climate Protection as its founding CEO in Palo Alto, California. The Alliance, established and chaired by Former Vice President Al Gore, is spearheading a massive campaign to persuade Americans and people elsewhere in the world of both the urgency and solvability of the climate crisis. Ms. Zoi earned a B.S. in Geology from Duke University and an M.S. in Engineering Sciences from Dartmouth.

to the dude with the ron paul quote on his sig.....
"Ron Paul says he would not have authorized the mission that led to the death of Osama bin Laden, and that President Barack Obama should have worked with the Pakistani government instead of authorizing a raid.
"I think things could have been done somewhat differently," Paul said this week. "I would suggest the way they got Khalid [Sheikh] Mohammed. We went and cooperated with Pakistan. They arrested him, actually, and turned him over to us, and he's been in prison. Why can't we work with the government?"
Until this.....I was really diggin' me some Ron Paul....until he came out & said we had no business blowing away Osama Bin Laden. And work with the Pakis....?! wtf are you living in a dream world ?
Oh, Ronnie ! Sac up boy & let us know when you have some balls. This ain't a global Constitutional gig that's out there, son. If we want to get anywhere as a nation, we just do what we have to do. GW would have approved.

We even blogged about it right here on this website and guess what happened? Hostess products flew off the shelves in record numbers over the weekend with Twinkies going for huge sums on eBay.

For many years, the diesel backup generator has been a symbol of reliability for data centers, providing the emergency power to keep servers online during utility power outages. But the growing focus on using clean energy to power large data centers is prompting some of the industry's largest players to ditch their generators, along with their diesel fuel emissions.
Microsoft is the latest company to announce its intention to reduce its use of diesel generators. The move is part of a broader initiative to make Microsoft's server farms more sustainable and less reliant on the utility grid.
"We are currently exploring alternative backup energy options that would allow us to provide emergency power without the need for diesel generators, which in some cases will mean transitioning to cleaner-burning natural gas and in other cases, eliminating the need for back-up generation altogether," Microsoft Utility Architect Brian Janous wrote in a blog post last week.
The reference to natural gas suggests that Microsoft is preparing to implement fuel cells to replace its generators. That could be good news for Bloom Energy, whose fuel cells will replace generators and UPS units at a new eBay data center in Utah. "Bloom boxes" are also being deployed to provide supplementary power at Apple's iDataCenter in North Carolina.
Committing to Renewable Power
Generators have been associated with several headaches for Microsoft's data center unit in recent years, including an Azure cloud outage in Europe (when multiple generators didn't start during a utility outage) and a public controversy about whether the diesel emissions from Microsoft's generators in Quincy, Washington could cause health problems for local residents (the state EPA says no).
But Microsoft's motivation to find alternatives to diesel generators is rooted in its commitment to become less dependent on the utility grid, and use renewable energy to power its servers wherever possible. The company says its vision for "data plants" will break new ground in integrating electricity and computing, bring together data centers and renewable power generation.
Microsoft has been exploring the potential for a waste-powered data center that will be built on the site of a water treatment plant or landfill. In his blog post, Janous indicated that Microsoft is evaluating this design at a biomass project in Europe. The company is also looking at a "photovoltaic solar project in the Southwestern U.S." Microsoft wouldn't provide additional details, but it's worth noting that the company has previously discussed installing a photovoltaic solar array at its data center in San Antonio.
Designing Around Generators
The most intriguing tidbit in this week's disclosures was Microsoft's plans to reduce its need for generators. Diesel engine exhaust is a regulated pollutant, and can be toxic in high concentrations.
"Given the unreliability of the electric grid and the need for continuous availability of cloud services, Microsoft maintains diesel generator backup at all of our data centers, as is typical across the industry," Janous wrote. "Our policy is to use these backup generators only when necessary to help maintain grid stability or in extraordinary repair, and maintenance situations that require us to take our data centers off the power grid. These generators are inefficient and costly to operate. From both an environmental and a cost standpoint, it makes no sense to run our generators more than we absolutely must."
So how do you eliminate generators? In a traditional configuration, data centers use the utility grid for primary power, with UPS units and backup generators providing emergency power in the event of grid outages. Bloom has advanced a power infrastructure design in which Bloom Energy Servers powered by natural gas serve as the primary power source, with the utility grid used as a backup service.
Such a configuration could alter the historic economics of using fuel cells in data centers. One of the primary barriers to adoption has been the cost of the fuel cells. But if using fuel cells allows data centers to eliminate expenses for UPS units and generators, the cost equation looks very different.
Microsoft is also considering "long term purchases from larger grid-connected installations that would displace some portion of our grid purchases," Janous wrote. Google has embraced a similar strategy, using power purchasing agreements to add more than 200 megawatts of wind power to the local utility grids that support its data centers. These bulk purchases can help guarantee long-term revenue for new renewable power projects, stimulating additional generation of renewable energy.
Towards that end, Microsoft is taking steps to position itself to make bulk power deals. "We have recently signed on as an advisory board member with Altenex, an operator of a network that enables member companies to more efficiently engage with developers of renewable energy projects," Janous said. "We expect this engagement with Altenex to improve our ability to identify and evaluate cost-effective clean energy projects."

Samuel Shethar was the oldest son of Edwin and Agnes Shethar. He was a war hero from World War I. His health never recovered from being gassed during that war, and he died in 1940 at the age of 54. He was married twice, to sisters. From his first marriage, to Pauline Cozzens, he had a son, Sam, born in 1913, who very tragically died at the age of 10, when he ran to catch an elevator and it turned out that the door was open to an empty elevator shaft. His second wife, Ethel Cozzens, married him despite his poor health, saying, according to George J. Davis (my uncle), that she had always loved him and would be happy to nurse and take care of him.
Here is the text for his citation from his service in World War I:
Distinguished Service Cross
Awarded for actions during the World War I
The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress, July 9, 1918, takes pleasure in presenting the Distinguished Service Cross to Captain (Infantry) Samuel Shethar, United States Army, for extraordinary heroism in action while serving with 369th Infantry Regiment, 93d Division, A.E.F., in the Champagne Sector, France, September 26 - 1 October 1918. Acting as operations officer, Captain Shethar on several occasions voluntarily collected small units which had become separated from their organizations, organized them, and led them to their positions through intense machine-gun and shell fire. At another time he spent several hours searching for a wounded battalion commander until he found him and carried him through heavy fire to the rear.
General Orders: War Department, General Orders No. 37 (1919)
Action Date: September 26 - October 1, 1918
Service: Army
Rank: Captain
Regiment: 369th Infantry Regiment
Division: 93d Division, American Expeditionary Forces
Sam Shethar had a prominent obituary in the New York Times, April 26, 1940, page 21, column 6, as follows:
He Fled Hospital to Join His Battalion in Battle -- Hat Manufacturer Dies at 53
Carried Wounded Major Back to Lines Under Heavy Fire -- Ex-Connecticut Legislator
Weston, Conn., April 25 - Samuel Shethar, World War hero, New York hat manufacturer, and former member of the Connecticut Legislature, died today at his home here. He was 53 years old.
Mr. Shethar, who had lived here since 1924, spent his business life as a hat manufacturer, heading a concern of his name. He retired several years ago. He had been first Selectman here, and in 1932 was elected on the Republican ticket to the State Legislature. He served for several terms, and was also chairman of the State Motor Vehicle Department.
Mr. Shethar was born in New York, the son of Edwin Hall Shethar and Agnes Nesmith Shethar, and was a descendant of Captain John Shethar, who was with the Continental Dragoons in the Revolutionary War. General Washington presented Captain Shethar with a sword after the Battle of Brandywine, and Mr. Shethar possessed this sword.
Studied in Germany
He attended the Berkley School, and after study in Munich, Germany, was graduated from New York University in 1906. He was a member of the Phi Gamma Delta Club, Republican Club, and was an enthusiastic yachtsman. He became a thirty-second degree Mason at the age of 24.
As a member of Company K of the Seventh Regiment, N.Y.N.G. (New York National Guard), Mr. Shethar served on the Mexican border, and when the United States entered the World War he received a commission as a second lieutenant in the Fighting Fifteenth Infantry. After nineteen hours of service in France he was ordered to a hospital with influenza. But at midnight, hearing that there was heavy fighting, he eluded his nurses and made his way back to the lines. He reported to his battalion commander and went into action, went through a twelve-hour shrapnel attack and was gassed. For his bravery in this action he was awarded the Croix de Guerre in 1918.
Had Helmet Shot Off
In the action on the Champagne front late in September, he volunteered to search for Major Lorillard Spencer who was lost. Under heavy machine gun fire he found the major, who was badly wounded, and carried him back to the American lines. Mr. Shethar's helmet was shot off on the trip. For this action General Pershing personally bestowed on him the Distinguished Service Cross.
At the end of the war he held the rank of major, and after four citations for valor, possessed the Croix de Guerre with palm and silver star, and was made a member of the Legion of Honor. Besides being gassed, he was twice wounded. At the end of the war, when near death from pneumonia, he was detained in France.
He leaves a widow, Mrs. Ethel Shethar; three sisters, Mrs. Frances B. Beals, Mrs. Beatrice Holdridge, and Mrs. Louis P. Davis, and a brother, John B. Shethar.

In The Minajerie: Nicki Minaj
Gwen Stefani
On writing hits: "I do! Why wouldn't you want that many people listening to the songs that you wrote? There's no way to go back after you have had it. So the intentions of even the solo records were always about trying to write those guilty-pleasure albums that just get in your head and you can't get out. I'm not cool, I'm not into the B-sides. Prince, who is one of my idols, gave me some advice when I worked with him: "Have you ever just tried writing a hit? Like, don't just try writing a song, try and write a hit song." I remember him saying that and me thinking, Yeah, you're right. Why would you write anything else?"
On her marriage to Gavin Rossdale: "The first time we ever kissed was right around Valentine's Day—we were in New Orleans on tour. So, yeah, I always think about that because it's unbelievable that we've been able to stay together. I feel so proud of us—it's one of my biggest achievements."
Gwen Stefani
On performing while pregnant: "It was horrible. Certain songs would make me want to puke. You feel pretty gross when you are first pregnant. You don't feel cute, you feel disgusting. You're getting fat. It was hard. I mean, I'm very vain. That would be my middle name. Of course I am, you know what I mean? I love the visual."
On whether Lady Gaga, Rihanna and Katy Perry have taken a page out of her playbook when it comes to style: "Really? I don't see myself in those girls. I usually put pants on. I see these girls as more going for the sex-symbol thing. I was more, in the band, like a tomboy. Of course, I think every girl is sexy, so there's going to be a little of that. But I see a lot of younger artists going more toward the sexy thing."
On pop music: "When we were growing up, some of the hits were legendary ones that you hear your whole life. But certain songs, I don't know if you'll ever hear them again. Because that's what that music is, like a guilty pleasure, it's right at the moment. It's like fashion—it's now, then it's gone."

Canada's Counter-Terrorism Strategy, Building Resilience Against Terrorism, outlines the first priority of the Government of Canada: to protect Canada and ensure the safety of Canadians at home and abroad.
Canada is not immune to terrorism. A number of international and domestic terrorist groups are present in Canada. Some are engaged in terrorist activity here, while others are active beyond Canada's borders. In the past few decades, several hundred Canadian civilians have been killed or injured in terrorist attacks, from New York City to Bali to Kenya. The global terrorist threat is becoming more diverse and complex. Canada's approach to addressing these threats must be adaptable and forward-looking, so that we can react to emerging threats but also identify and understand emerging trends.
Terrorism is a long-term global challenge. It demands a consistent, comprehensive and coordinated international response based on common goals, values and institutions. It also demands a response that is consistent with our international legal obligations, including international human rights and humanitarian law.
Addressing the Threat: Prevent, Detect, Deny and Respond
Counter-terrorism has a military component, but this cannot solely define international efforts. The multi-pronged fight against terrorism must include diplomacy, intelligence, security and law enforcement, customs and immigration, transportation, justice and finance expertise. All the relevant branches of government must work together to:
- Prevent individuals from engaging in terrorism;
- Detect the activities of individuals and organizations who may pose a terrorist threat;
- Deny terrorists the means and opportunity to carry out their activities; and
- Respond proportionately, rapidly and in an organized manner to terrorist activities and mitigate their effects.
All of our domestic and international efforts must be grounded in the rule of law and support good governance. Our counter-terrorism measures must be consistent with international law, in particular human rights, humanitarian and refugee law.
The Department's Role
Global Affairs Canada is responsible for the conduct of Canada's affairs abroad, including leading Canada's responses to terrorist incidents abroad and providing consular assistance. It uses its broad international network to enable counter-terrorism cooperation with other states and its role within multilateral organizations to ensure that Canadian interests and values are reflected internationally, and to enhance the security of Canadians and Canadian interests. Within Canada, it ensures that domestic policy is informed by the international context and respects international obligations.
International Cooperation
Counter-terrorism requires effective international cooperation and coordination, therefore Canada works to develop legal instruments, best practices and international standards to combat terrorism in the following international fora:
- United Nations Counter-Terrorism Implementation Task Force (UN-CTITF)
- Global Counter-Terrorism Forum (GCTF)
- G7 Roma-Lyon Group
- Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Counter-Terrorism Working Group (CTTF)
- Association of Southeast Asian Nations Regional Forum (ARF)
- Organization of American States (OAS) Inter-American Committee against Terrorism (CICTE)
- Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE)
- North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)
- International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO)
- International Maritime Organization (IMO)
- World Customs Organization (WCO)
Since 1963, the international community has elaborated 19 universal legal instruments and additional amendments to prevent terrorist acts. These UN-sponsored terrorism-related international conventions and protocols address such specific terrorist acts as hostage taking, hijacking, terrorist bombings, and terrorist financing.
Counter-Terrorism Capacity Building Program (CTCBP)
Our security is inextricably linked to that of other states. When they lack resources or expertise to prevent and respond to terrorist activity, the security of Canadians and Canadian interests both at home and abroad is at risk. Canada's Counter-Terrorism Capacity Building Program (CTCBP) assists other states with training, funding, equipment, technical and legal assistance so that they can prevent and respond to terrorist activity, within international counter-terrorism and human rights norms, standards and obligations.
Terrorism Financing
As technology evolves and increasingly integrates trading and financial systems, terrorists' ability to collect and move funds between jurisdictions develops as well, complicating the task of tracing and confiscating their assets. The Criminal Code, the United Nations Afghanistan Regulations (UNAR) and the United Nations Suppression of Terrorism Regulations (UNSTR) provide Canada with strict measures to identify terrorist entities and to freeze their assets.
State Supporters of Terrorism
The Justice for Victims of Terrorism Act (the "Act") allows victims of terrorism to sue perpetrators of terrorism and those who support them, including foreign states whose immunity has been lifted under the State Immunity Act, for loss or damage that has occurred as a result of an act of terrorism committed anywhere in the world.
The Governor in Council has the authority, upon the recommendation of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and in consultation with the Minister of Public Safety, to list foreign states under the State Immunity Act where there are reasonable grounds to believe that the foreign state supported or supports terrorism.
Since September 2012, Canada has listed Iran and Syria as states that support terrorism.
Counter-Terrorism and Transportation
Canadians expect and deserve to travel without fear of terrorist attack or interference. The 9/11 hijackings - followed by the Madrid and London bombings – have served as a reminder of the vulnerability of mass transit systems worldwide. Global Affairs Canada works closely with its domestic and international partners to enhance transportation security and remains active in elaborating new aviation, land and marine transportation security standards. Canada is also very active in the APEC region working with the Counter-Terrorism Task Force to develop common guidelines for member economies with respect to counter-terrorism and security practices in the marine, air and rail modes of transportation.
