This is a matter of Love over reality Braxton although better than he was a an underclassman still does not progress through his reads and does not utilize weapons like Guiton or JT does. There are reasons TE rarely recieved throws and WR looked bad. I think Braxton is a better player than JT but not a better QB. I also think Braxton because of his explosiveness is better for this team because its based of a QB running the ball. Which I personally hate. So I agreeJT is a better passer when given time but Braxton is better for this team especially when the QB is not given time to go through several progression as shown when Ohio State plays teams that can pressure you regularly with or without Blitzing as seen when we play teams close to or equal in talent on the defensive lines.

I don't understand why Rod Smith does not even get the opprotunity to see what he can do. Being in the program 4 years his body is definitely up to the challenge where is these freshman and sophmores may not be. He is a big powerful back and shows in few opprotunities the ability to bust one at any point. You hear how these things happen in practice and they never come to fuition on the feild on game days. I feel Herman is so caught up in his vision of how he wants his offense to look he ignores what is really happening on the feild at times. I think Smith will still be a pro back when its all said and done and will be yet another under utilized player while playing under Urban Meyer.
lol what Saluki2007 said...I am still a lil bitter about that myself...Furthermore if Tavis would stop missing so many tackles and playing so soft when it comes to laying wood to recievers I would take his comments with more than a grain. He is an ok player but he does not play like his size would suggest. If that makes any sense to you guys.
One last thing we will not contend for a championship of any kind with JT Barrett at the helm of this offense that requires you to either be a gifted runner or be able to get that rock to recievers in a hurry. Not to blow down on the kid but he is neither..I would have rather went with Jones who's cannon for an arm and size could possibly give you a Ben Rothlesberger type presence in there. I don't understand what Barrett could have possibly shown in practice that had him surpassing the kid who URBAN said was far ahead and solidly the #2 guy. I'm of the mind set that this was strictly a Herman call cause he recruited the kid and in his mind he envisions it looking better but real life results are totally different. We saw real life last sat.
I don't think it's an arguement about Tressel losing to inferior teams as to why the uproar about Meyer and CO. its the way we are losing Most of the time in the Tressell era , for example when we lost to Purdue, We didn't leave the game feeling like we were outcoached. We usually had the feeling that the other team played the perfect game. Minus the Florida drubbing in the National Championship game. Frankly these last games I have felt like there were adjustment and counter measures that we could have done against our opponents that would have given us a better chance to win. Herman's lack of knowledge of what to do when teams are attacking you the same way over and over again is disturbing. The fact that we only ran one slant, (went for a touchdown), and one screen, (incomplete pass to Wilson), against the furious rush we were getting left a bad taste in everyones mouth and most people who understand that football is not brain surgery would have felt like we got beat by a better team had we at least attempted to do more of these things.
I often wonder are some of you guys just blinded by fandom or just drinking the coffee of what other people and coaches have stated. Yes I agree Lee was in position for several plays and made a few big ones but what I saw most of the day was him missing plays and getting ran over or drug by the Navy running back especially the fullback between the tackles. When that was not happening I have no clue whos responsibility it was to get the far pitch guy. I did not see a change until Cam Williams was inserted into what I think was Lee's position and he simply destroyed the fullback or any lead blocker only after this move at the end of the third quarter, i think, was Ohio States Defense able to stop that option and get off the field regularly. Just my honest input
I Think he stays put at least one year unless he loses his rivalry game and has another bad loss on top og those like what should have happened in the Akron game last year. A bad year and more recruits bailing for other schools especially The Ohio State University in the case of the Weber Kid will be his demise. But all in all i think he has one more good year to make excuses.
I love the Fresh Start attitude lets try to forget about last years defense.....PLEASEEEEE LETS GET IT STARTED SO THE THERAPY CAN BEGIN. UNFORTUNATELY THAT WOULD MEAN THE END OF SUMMER SO I WILL WAIT A LIL LONGER LOL.
I agree also that some of our problems last year was scheme but if every dude losses you in the open field regularly some burden has to be put on the players. There were several moments where Buckeyes players had opprtunities to make plays but they simply wiffed. I pray that the scheme was so bad that it put people on Islands without help and we got burned repeatedly due to it. But I also pray that its just not our talent is simply over hyped due to our fandom. Just a realistic opinion. GO BUCKEYES!!
Let me see he put on more weight and muscle and got faster? Was he faster or stronger before this gain? Because I seem to remember a big tight end from Iowa leaving him in the dust like the Road Runner IJS some of this stuff just makes no sense i know its off season but sheeezzz?????
hurt sorry
Words can desribe How much I love this and how much attention this will grab. Bout time Matta got on board with this. Losing all these games will not hut this schools chances of making the dance unless they are truly garbage which they have proven not to be under his reighn. Should definitely help with recruiting exposure.
lOVE THE PICK UP AND THE GAME GET THAT KID WORKING ON HIS LEFT HAND EXCLUSIVELY IS THE NEXT STEP
My problem is I never know who is actually going to play. Don't get me wrong I love the Job matta has done overall with the program and I am not saying i could do better but I don't think certain huys lack of playing time prepares them for tough games later on. Mich st and even teams like Fentucky play their guys and they get valuable experience and adjust to the speed of the game faster than the Buckeye players to me. the Buckeyes seem to level off and do not increasingly get better like I see with other elite programs. not saying it happens with every program but the Buckeyes are the only one I care about
I totally agree blind hope is all good but i need results
Let me preface I did not read all this article. I saw Tavis Powell and instantly said to myself huh this is a story about bad angles and looking not to have a clue. One play does not a career make
May i ask the question? Why is this tossing the ball around speed so enamored? Last I checked the Alamaba Crimson Tide did not run a spread and they definitely don't throw the ball all willie nillie. They have a power running game eliment and speed at overall positions. So sure it may be exciting to watch Oregon play but last I checked they have not won Jack and can't even seem to consistantly beat a slow foot Stanford team IJS
Some of you guys are so die hard. Dontre did not let him win he got smoked. Just admit it the rumors of his speed have been greatly exxxxxxagerated!! VIVA LA OHIO BORN SPEED!!
Hopefully we can land Turner and lesson the blow of me having to watch Amir any more than I have to. Maybe even the kid from Va Tech as a transfer. Anything but Amir again you cannot win with that kid against real talent that you will face tournament time.
I have to wonder and worry that I am not hearing more about the young guys in the trenches where games are won. We can have all the weapons we want if you don't win the battle up front these guys will be nothing more than wasted talent on both sides.
We can assume nothing due to defiencies in this years team that no doubt will caryy over. You can never assume freshman wi ll do anything until they prove it and as we have seen MATTA has a recent history of not letting them play. Add to that the lack of simple physical strength on the unti as a whole. I am very diappointed at the strenght and conditioning of this team. Far too many frail young men on this team and we are talking guys that are about to be seniors and have been in the program for extended periods of time.
Why are we blaming Amir when somebody on the OSU staff recruited this soory excuse for a center kid
Whats score?
Amir needs to compose himself to explode everytime how is that not fixed three years in. Can't wait til that era is over
what is the score

Brazil Youth National Team Headed to Bradenton for Nike Friendlies
The Brazil Youth National Team (composed of players born in 1990) will provide the U.S. with a formidable challenge during the 2005 Nike Friendlies in Bradenton, Fla.
Well-known as a world power at every competitive age level, this young Brazil team – which will attempt to qualify for the 2007 FIFA U-17 World Championship in the coming year – looks to be cut from the same cloth as those teams that have come before them.
In their first international competition, Brazil overpowered their CONMEBOL counterparts to win the 2nd Campeonato Sudamericano Sub-15 played in Bolivia. The tournament was the first-ever continental tournament in the U-15 age group. Last year, the U.S. U-17 '88 MNT and Mexico competed in the inaugural 10-team tournament in Paraguay when it was a U-16 event, going up against the eight CONMEBOL teams.
During the two-week, eight-team tournament this year, Brazil went undefeated (6-0) and outscored their opponents 22-6. After defeating Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay and Uruguay by a combined score of 13-2 in group play, Brazil's only real close call was a 3-2 victory over host Bolivia in the semifinals.
In the final, Brazil demonstrated why they are proclaimed as possibly the best youth outfit in the world with a demolishing 6-2 victory over Argentina.
Of the 20 players on Brazil's roster in the 2nd Campeonato Sudamericano Sub-15, 15 will be part of the team that ventures to IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla., to meet the U.S. U-17 Men's National Teams during the 2005 Nike Friendlies.
Midfielder Bernardo Vieira de Souza (nickname Bernardo), who led Brazil with six goals during the U-15 tournament, will highlight the team's roster at the Nike Friendlies. Midfielder Alex Teixeira Santos (Alex) and defenders Fabio Pereira da Silva (Fabio) and Rafael Pereira da Silva (Rafael) will also lead the South American power as they take on the Americans.

Payments made easier for caregivers
Hon Paula Bennett
Minister for Social Development
7 July 2014 Media Statement
Payments made easier for caregivers
Social Development Minister Paula Bennett today announced changes to make payments easier for Child, Youth and Family caregivers.
"Currently CYF caregivers are reimbursed for day to day needs including medical prescriptions. From next month they will receive regular lump sum payments to cover costs and won't have to waste time applying for the money.
"We trust caregivers to provide a loving nurturing home and it is ludicrous that we then make them jump through hoops to access funds to support the children in their care.
From 20 August 2014, caregivers will receive:
• A $20 fortnightly payment for small costs to cover things like a birthday present for a child's friend, prescription costs or a cell phone top up.
• A $350 set-up payment to help with items to get ready for their first placement including furniture or bedding.
And from 1 October:
• More frequent clothing allowance payments which will be paid every four weeks rather than quarterly.
• A new reimbursement for some caregivers of $0.77 cents per km who travel over 40km per week to meet the specific needs of a child or young person.
"Child, Youth and Family caregivers do an amazing job in opening their hearts and homes to children who need them. I'm very pleased that we have been able to act on feedback from caregivers and redesign the payment system to be more flexible and responsive to these fantastic people," says Mrs Bennett.

Hewlett Bay Park is a village in Nassau County, New York in the USA, on the South Shore of Long Island. As of the United States 2010 Census, the village population was 404.
The Incorporated Village of Hewlett Bay Park is located within the Town of Hempstead.
Hewlett Bay Park ranks at number 18 on the list of Highest-income places in the United States. This area, like Back/Old Lawrence is unique because its rural affluence is similar in character to the more well known Gold Coast of the North Shore instead of being more urbanized like the rest of the South Shore of Nassau County.
Hewlett is usually included as one of the Five Towns in the southwestern corner of Nassau County. In the context of the Five Towns, "The Hewletts" or "Hewlett" is often used to refer collectively to the hamlet of Hewlett, together with the villages of Hewlett Bay Park, Hewlett Harbor and Hewlett Neck. The Five Towns is usually said to comprise the villages of Lawrence and Cedarhurst, the hamlets of Woodmere and Inwood, and "The Hewletts", along with Woodsburgh.

Outside for IPhone
One of the things that I really like, but take somewhat for granted, about the iPhone OS is its support for push notifications. At first I thought I had little need to be notified when, say, an e-mail or Facebook message arrived. But as the notifications became more a part of my everyday iPhone experience, I came to realize their utility. You're simply told what has arrived, and from who. And you make a quick decision whether to have a look or wait until later. Simple and beautiful.
Weather apps seem like they'd be prime territory for push notifications, which is why I was excited to learn about Outside, a new entry into the crowded weather apps category. In the first line of Outside's iTunes store description, developer Robocat touts "push notifications like you've never seen before."
What a terrific idea, I thought--especially in service of my running habit. A storm's going to roll in later in the afternoon? I'll be notified and plan to run early. A warming trend around the bend? I'll put off that long run until that rolls around. And so on.
Unfortunately, Outside's push notifications are so bare-boned as to be nearly useless. You have a choice to be notified of only four weather events--rain, cold, UV index, and warm "T-shirt weather," in the app's informal parlance. You set your notifications for a specific time of day--and can choose only one time of day to be notified for each event.
On the positive side, you can customize your notifications. For example, I have the app set up to notify me that it's "cold" when the temperature falls below 38 degrees Fahrenheit, and "T-shirt weather" when the mercury tops 50. And my UV notification is set to 6. You can also customize the sound that plays and message that appears on your screen when a notification is warranted. "Brrr. it's cold out," is the default for cold weather, for example, but you can change that to something like "Bundle up today!"
Clearly, this kind of timed notification precludes the kind of warnings that I--and probably most others who want push notifications--are looking for. It's easy to check the weather when you wake up, or at midday--or at any time, without push. It's harder to know when a monsoon has taken a sudden turn toward (or away from) your location, which is why conditions--not preset times--should drive weather push notifications.
In addition to being limited to only four notifications (no snow? no extremes?), the app also limits you to notifications for only one geographic location. Traveling from Miami to Indianapolis via Chicago? You're out of luck, in terms of getting a full picture of your travel weather. The app also limits basic current weather information and forecasts to only one location, unlike a slew of other weather apps, which enable you to bookmark and save many locations.
Outside's subscription model is simple and would seem justifiable if the push notifications were more useful and plentiful. When you purchase the app, you get 30 days of notifications for free. After the 30-day period is over, you can choose to subscribe for another 90 days ($1) or 300 days ($2), or to not subscribe at all. In the latter case, the app still works; you just won't get any notifications..
The app does perform its very limited duties fine, but there are many free and less expensive weather apps for the iPhone that provide much more information and utility.

Visit Florida Racing Fights Forward to Finish Fourth at Road America
Posted by: newsla on Aug 11, 2014 - 06:50 AM
Visit Florida Racing Fights Forward to Finish Fourth at Road America
Visit Florida Racing came from the back of the pack to finish fourth in the Continental Tire Road Race Showcase at Road America on Sunday with drivers Michael Valiante and Richard Westbrook in the No. 90 VISIT FLORIDA Corvette DP.
After scoring a strong run of IMSA finishes stretching back to the team's victory at Watkins Glen in June, the team had podium ambitions on the weekend to score critical points toward the 2014 IMSA TUDOR United SportsCar Championship.
Unfortunately, despite showing impressive speed all weekend with the No. 90 Visit Florida Racing Corvette DP, the pit stop strategy didnât pay dividends for the team as the caution periods played out unfavorably.
Valiante started the race from the end of the nearly 50-car field after a qualifying tech discrepancy invalidated the time set by the team during the qualifying session. But the Canadian was not to be denied as he made the most of the speed with the Visit Florida Corvette DP to move up to fifth before turning the car over to Westbrook to take to the finish.
Westbrook was soon running in third place and looking for more as a yellow flag appeared, making for a go-or-no-go decision from the pits. Electing to stay out to go deeper into the fuel stint, the strategy didnât pay off after a subsequent yellow flag saw the team take to the pits as Westbrook returned to the fray in 13th. But for the second time on the day, the No. 90 Visit Florida machine was once again upwardly mobile as Westbrook charged to take fourth at the finish.
âWe just took a risk with the strategy, and followed the 10 and the 01 on strategy, and in hind sight, that is what cost us the race,â said Valiante. âHad we have stopped, we would have won. At the start, the main thing was to try and stay out of trouble and not lose too much time to the leaders. I was able to get through without any incidents and make up positions, and we came in to the pits in fifth so the race was going really well for us. But, you win some, you lose some and it ended up that we just didn't make the right call with the strategy. On to COTA.â
âThe car was fantastic, we knew that from qualifying and it was the same in the race,â said Westbrook. âIt was really quick. There was a decision to be made to pit with an hour to go and it was a tough call. Unfortunately we chose wrong, and they chose right. At the time I was ahead of (race winner) Barbosa and we had a very quick car. It is always disappointing to not win when youâve got this strong of a car. At this point in the championship, we canât just take comfort in having a quick car. You have to execute on every part of what you are doing. It has been a bad weekend on that front, but we will regroup and get back on it at COTA.â
After a very busy stretch of summer races, IMSA will return to race action at the Circuit of the Americas in just over one month's time.
âYou hate to have strategy take away a chance for making some big ground up in the championship, but you know everyone knows the best strategy after the race is over!â joked team owner Troy Flis. âWe had a very fast car and really hit our marks this weekend, right from the start. But we just didnât get a break with that last yellow coming out and that cost us here. Iâm proud of how we came from the back of the field and were in position to have a big finish, but it just didnât play our way today. Weâve got two big races to go in this championship, and a ton of racing yet to play out so that's our focus all the way to the last lap of the season.â
Round 10 of the IMSA TUDOR United SportsCar will be staged at the Circuit of Americas on September 20.

Diana Csillag engaged students in a discussion about the use of resource and energy efficient building solutions in social housing programs in developing countries.
Diana Csillag engaged students in a discussion about the use of resource and energy efficient building solutions in social housing programs in developing countries.
As part of the Leaders in Sustainable Global Enterprise speaker series, Ms Diana Csillag, program manager for the Brazilian Council for Sustainable Construction, engaged students in a discussion about their Sustainable Urban Social Housing Initiative (SUSHI) Project, a UNEP-financed initiative. Brazil and Thailand are two pilot SUSHI locations where the first phase (2009-2011) of the program was carried out. The second phase of the initiative (2012-2014) will be tested in India and in Bangladesh.
Brazil faces a housing shortage of 5.57 million units, 10% of demand, and lacks an additional 10 million units of adequate housing, homes not connected to infrastructure. Furthermore, Brazil has approximately 11.4 million people or 6% of the population who are slum dwellers. The Brazilian housing sector, sustained by rapid urbanization and demographic growth, is struggling to meet the demands for new housing. As a result, housing prices are on the rise and low-income families find themselves excluded from the housing market.
According to Ms. Csillag, Brazil currently has an even split in its energy matrix of renewable energy and non-renewable energy, while the rest of the world's energy usage comprises of 80% non-renewable and 20% renewable. UNEP reports that, in a city like São Paulo, buildings are responsible for a significant share of global energy use, resource consumption, and waste generation. However, Brazil social housing units can control carbon dioxide, as they provide high efficiency incandescent light, limited use of air-conditioning, and adequate insulation in the homes.
SUSHI was created in order to foster the use of resource and energy efficient building solutions in social housing programs in developing countries. Ms Csillag described the project as having three main components: mapping and local assessment; selection of solutions; and awareness-raising, training and dissemination.
Mapping consists of an assessment of the existing policy structure and the identification of available market solutions for water and energy efficiency that could be employed in social housing. When selecting solutions Ms. Csillag noted that they take a practical approach to evaluating potential solutions and implementation requirements, ranking these solutions based on their efficiency and impacts at social, economic and environmental level. Finally, collaboration with local partners is used to identify gaps in information and training, and to improve the dissemination of existing knowledge.
However, Ms Csillag also showed evidence that the project presents some notable remaining challenges and barriers to its effective implementation: Costs of implementing new technologies are higher than conventional ones; there is a shortage of technical capacity for development and maintenance of the sustainable technologies; there are lost opportunities for improving housing in general such as improved efficiency in energy consumption, thermal comfort, correct use of water, health issues of the built environment and reduction of maintenance costs; and the absence of low-income community users on the project team.
As a pilot experiment, the SUSHI project in Brazil is not flawless. Indeed, the project is still unfolding and many lessons learned from phase 1 can help improve the steps undertaken in phase II.

At Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia-- my undergraduate alma mater-- President James Wagner is in hot water... make that boiling hot lava. He has ignited a furor not likely to die down anytime soon. Faculty, students, and administrators are all screaming at him like...well, to put it frankly, like a bunch of bitches. And when faculty, student, and administrative bitches be trippin', presidential heads are liable soon to be rollin'.
"Oh dear!" you reply, voice resonant with grave concern. "What ever has the man done?? It must be something really beastly... after all, those employed and enrolled at prestigious American universities never lose their heads and throw a collective PC-hissy fit over something utterly stupid and of no real moment and ultimately insubstantial! The president's transgression must be egregious indeed!"
And oh, it is! Wagner's act is in fact so stunningly wicked that before I relate it, you may just want to ready your smelling salts, in case you pass out from the shock. Consider this your "trigger warning," if indeed you are the type of person who cares at all about such things as decency, goodness, justice, and decorum.
Are you ready? Are you sitting down? Is your rectum good and clenched? Have you got a stong father figure by your side whom you can hug and on whose broad, strong shoulders you can cry copious tears of dismay and trauma?
Okay... here's what he did.
This dastardly man... flagrantly used a historical metaphor in a newspaper column in order to make a rhetorical point!
"So what," you ask?
Well, you see, it may not LOOK like a big deal, but it IS. Yea, verily, indeed. After all, the piece in question, which Wagner penned for The Emory Wheel, made reference to the "three-fifths compromise" following the end of the Revolutionary War, in which those pushing for black slaves to count the same as whites for the purposes of constituional representation, settled instead on letting each black vote count for 60 percent, or three-fifths, of the value of a white man's citizenship. Wagner cited this instance as a time when one political faction, believing strongly in the correctness of their cause, nevertheless made concessions for pragmatic purposes.
Here is a summary of the brouhaha, as reported by the Wheel, the student newspaper that once ran a few of my own strident post-adolescent editorials back in the day:
(Note the ample and pungently unfurling scent of relentless butthurt from the various student and faculty groups chiming in to condemn Wagner's oh-so-horrific words. Geez, what a campus of whiners!)
Yes, folks... that's what it takes to ignite a campus controversy these days. It's becoming easier and easier. To bring the militant multicultist mafia down on your head, you used to have to do something really provocative, like fly the "stars and bars" from your dorm room window, or refuse to spell "woman" with a "y," or smirk in the presence of an AIDS quilt.
Now all it takes for a university president-- a president, no less-- to be undone is for him to invoke an ostensibly infelicitous, even if accurate, metaphor relating to antebellum Negro slavery in the midst of an altogether rather bland newspaper column encouraging clashing departments of his college to unite despite their differences for the sake of a greater good.
The American academic gulag metastasizes into an ever-more absurdist caricature all the time. What will be the next overblown kerfuffle to roil the legions of left-liberal brainwashed goosestepping minions? Will the plague of political correctness finally run its terminal course and perish, even as it kills its by now thoroughly spent and useless hosts in the ivory towers it inhabits?

Paddling Across History
Oregon's fastest-growing water-based recreation, flatwater kayaking, enjoys popularity because it is simple to get involved: all you need is a paddle, a PFD (Personal Flotation Device) and a 16-foot kayak to explore the great Oregon outdoors on the water.
But what we call recreation is actually based upon tried-and-true tradition and skills learned through generations over thousands of years. Oregon is blessed with so many different places to enjoy an afternoon paddle adventure; perhaps a favorite pond, lake, estuary or a quiet stretch of slow moving river.
Don Beale and his partner, Joanne Barta, agreed that a paddle is perfect cure for what ails anyone during winter's short days – especially on a rare, sunny December morning.
"Normally at this time of year, it's 70% chance of rain," said Beale as he slid into the comfy confines of his home-built kayak. "But today, it's 70% chance of sunshine! I love it."
Beale is a longtime kayaker who builds his own kayaks, historic boats that are built upon traditional lines and from favored woods like fir, spruce or cedar. He said that the designs are centuries old. "I took it up because it was inexpensive, but more than anything I see more critters. I am closer to the water and closer to the wildlife so what's not to like – no limits that way," he said.
But his real passion is that which moves him – the paddle.
"The paddle is your connection to the water," said Beale. "Every stroke you take, you feel the water. There's a unique connection to the place you're visiting through the paddle and I think that is special and I like that."
Beale can turn a cedar 2-by-4 into something truly special in just a couple hours. In Beale's Forest Grove workshop, his cuts are square and even, but it isn't long before you see the secret in Beale's Paddles: the shape is long and skinny. He said that his "skinny" paddles mean less "bite" in the water when you stroke them, and that means less pressure on the paddler's wrists, arms and shoulders.
"I have always been into woodworking and I became interested in paddles when I realized I could make one better than I could buy it. That's what really set me on this path."
While the idea may seem new and innovative, Beale noted that Native Americans knew this fact hundreds of years ago, and it's reflected in their designs and that was the source for his own ideas about kayaking paddles.
Flatwater kayaking is fun! It's easy to see why it is Oregon's fastest-growing water-based recreation. Not only affordable, but flatwater kayaking is relatively easy to master. With proper safety equipment, a kayak can take you into places that larger boats can't get into.
Harvey Golden is betting more people will have fun paddling across history at his new Lincoln Street Kayak and Canoe Museum in SE Portland. It's a good place to drop in and get grounded in the past.
"There are hundreds of boats in museums," said Golden. "But only about 15 percent of them are on exhibit. It's really hard to visit a museum and see kayaks, so I wanted to provide that opportunity to the public."
Golden spent years traveling the world, visiting museums and researching the oldest original kayak designs on record. Then he built them; 70 of them to date. 40 of those are on display in his new museum.
So is his book, "Kayaks of Greenland," an amazing text that provides photos and drawings of historic kayak designs and describes the history of kayaking — a history that reaches back 500 years. Golden even 'paddles the talk' too. Once summer, he paddled 800 miles of the Columbia River in one of his hand-built historic kayaks.
Beale and Golden agreed that flatwater kayaking opens the door to new adventure that's right at home on Oregon's diverse waterways.
"There's something special about being the captain for your own boat," said Golden. "The paddler can go wherever on Oregon's rivers or bays and lakes and explore. That feeling is incredible!"
It is easy to find incredible places to explore through the Oregon State Marine Board's remarkable Oregon Boating Access Map. The interactive map provides detailed facts and directions and critical boating information to hundreds of ramps, launches and marinas. It is a tool that every boater – no matter the level of marine experience – will find useful.

The year is 2014, Madiba the man is gone but his spirit lives on. In some quarters, there is some level of anxiety as to what happens now, now that the man with the big shoulders is gone.
I have listened to many ANC speakers who were at pains to explain that the principle of non-racialism, no domination of one racial group by another, and South Africa is for all who live in it that Madiba stood for, was not a personal mission of his but rather the mandate of the party, which was articulated as far back as 1957 by AJ Luthuli, former president of the ANC in his letter to prime minister JG Strijdom. We therefore start the year in the safe hands of the ANC.
I must add that it would be naive in the extreme to suggest that there was no Mandela effect. It is instructive to point out that even when a presentation is a team effort, if the presenter is a tired person with no charisma, the whole effort goes to waste.
Therefore, Madiba the person did a sterling job in representing what the ANC stands for.
The question though is whether Madiba's magnanimity was fully understood and reciprocated or perhaps the roots of racism were far deeper than imaginable. Somehow, there is more evidence pointing to the latter.
In about June 1995, during the Rugby World Cup, Madiba moved to unite the nation by wearing the Number 6 jersey as he entered the stadium to congratulate the Springboks. At the time, an overwhelming majority of black people who voted for the ANC were opposed to the Springbok emblem.
By wearing that jersey, Madiba risked his political equity for the sake of fast-tracking the objectives of the Freedom Charter to ensure one nation united in its diversity.
Sadly though, this euphoria was short-lived because in March 1998, just under three years later, the late rugby boss Louis Luyt, may his soul rest in peace, took Madiba to court and accused him of not properly applying his mind in respect of the political decision that he took to establish a commission to look into transformation issues in rugby.
Most rational people were brought to tears; others extremely angered by the ungratefulness of Luyt and his ilk when Mandela said in court, "I would never have imagined that Louis would be so insensitive, ungrateful and disrespectful to say when I gave my affidavit (submitted earlier to the court) I was lying".
After Madiba had languished in jail for 27 years and came out without any bitterness, and in fact in some instances went against his own comrades to forge national unity, why did Luyt and his supporters not give him the benefit of the doubt?
The question is, given the amount of time this ANC government is spending in courts, are Madiba's fears not justified when he expressed some discomfort in going to court for the Luyt matter fearing that this might open floodgates and set a bad precedent resulting in government being undermined?
Notwithstanding the accountability that is required to the South African population, why is it that the good intentions of this ANC government are always distorted, second-guessed and undermined?
Is this not the abuse of the hard-negotiated constitutional democracy? Why is it that when section 15 (3) of the Employment Equity Act is clear and explicit that quotas are excluded, Helen Zille and the DA continue to make false and unfounded allegations that the Employment Equity Act uses racial quotas?
How different is this from the Luyt saga as described earlier, that disappointed Madiba?
Zille and the DA refuse to commit to measurable proportions of black representation that reflect their quantum of economically active population, yet in their recent conference they acknowledged the centrality of race in the redress mechanisms.
This hypocrisy of the DA validates the anxiety reported in the media that under DA rule, apartheid will return.
The toilet saga in the Western Cape where a bucket system is replaced by a "new and improved", wait for it, bucket system, is a real expression of where the DA places the humanity of black people. This is NOT what Madiba spent 27 years in jail for.
US President Barack Obama had this to say in memory of Madiba: "There are too many of us who happily embrace Madiba's legacy of racial reconciliation, but passionately resist even modest reforms that would challenge chronic poverty and growing inequality. And there are too many of us who stand on the sidelines, comfortable in complacency or cynicism when our voices must be heard."
The DA talks about "broadening the opportunities", which in reality simply amounts to an attempt to maintain the status quo by co-opting a few black faces who are "not like the others". Some well-meaning blacks in the DA are unfortunately yoked into this assimilation strategy.
Malcolm X would have said the DA just wants "House niggers". How else does one explain the disproportionality between the DA making a fundamentally progressive point of agreeing with the ANC government's reference to race and the paucity of blacks in top levels, and then be cold-feeted in agreeing to a fair and inclusive quantification system as a remedy? In Xhosa, this is called Lala gusha ndikuchebe. Mr Trollip, please translate this to your fellow members. The truth is that the EE Act which, by the way, came into effect during the Madiba presidency, only makes reference to numeric goals and targets. How else should progress on redress of racially engineered disenfranchisement be measured?
Importantly and contrary to the disinformation campaign of the DA, the targets that companies are monitored on are NOT imposed by the government; these targets are set by the companies themselves.
Furthermore, in the event that the company fails to achieve its own set targets, the director-general review system has a rational process that allows for explanations that are genuine, which may have caused the non-achievement of those targets. Levies are not applied arbitrarily.
There is nothing new and profound about the stimulus approach that the DA is only now 15 years later proposing. Since inception, the Commission for Employment Equity, a creation of the ANC government, which I must add includes members of Business Unity SA (Busa), has always been empowered to carry out recognition awards for companies that are performing well on Employment Equity. It is unfortunate that to date, no company has met the envisaged standards to qualify for the prestigious recognition.
So the strengthening of the enforcement mechanisms could have been avoided if the desired levels of transformation were achieved.
By the way, the ANC government is still lenient in the enforcement measures as approved in the recent Employment Equity Amendment Bill. The government could have simply promulgated section 53(4) of the Employment Equity Act, which would have given it an immediate power to refuse doing business with offenders or stop existing contracts with companies that are not transformed.
The statistics for the Commission for EE makes a startling revelation that almost 75 percent of the skilled workforce in South Africa is black.
However, it would seem that the 25 percent white skilled base is the only resource that companies in South Africa largely use.
Lastly, the DA and their sympathetic economists are always at pains to point out, albeit incorrectly, that economic growth is the only solution to unemployment.
The truth is that owing to the complexities of our economy, which the various inclusive growth plans of the government are trying to deal with, South Africa at some stage (during the GEAR period) in our democracy experienced phenomenal economic growth that was not matched by employment, duped "jobless growth". So, no, economic growth on its own is not a solution to unemployment. No wonder the ANC has coined the term "inclusive growth".
The DA must not oppose ANC government policies just for the sake of opposing them without offering cogent and well-considered alternatives that are genuine and without racist undertones.
At this point it may be useful to point out that the multiracialism of the DA must not be confused with non-racialism.
Zille and the DA must be ashamed of exhibiting Louis Luyt tendencies where well-meant remedies are treated with disdain.
Following their belated admission that race is directly correlatable with disadvantage, which was visited upon our people by apartheid, the Progressive Professionals Forum calls on Zille and the DA, as the remaining larger and recognisable reminder of our racist past, to do the noble thing, seize the moment and apologise for apartheid.
The DA has failed to show any remorse for having been an active participant in the racist system that oppressed black South Africans. Instead, the DA continues to display brazen arrogance as if 20 years of political liberation is enough to reverse more than 300 years of successive forms of colonialism, racism and exploitation.
Manyi is the president of Progressive Professionals Forum.

Superman's Kryptonite Found?
Dr. Chris Stanley was enlisted as an expert when workers in a Serbian mine found a mineral they could not identify as any previously known. The chemical formula, sodium lithium boron silicate hydroxide, was not referenced in the scientific literature, but it was referenced in literature — specifically that of science fiction. A Web search by Dr. Stanley revealed that the new mineral closely matches the chemical composition of kryptonite as described in the latest Superman film…
The chemical formula of the new mineral was written on a case containing kryptonite that Lex Luthor had stolen from a museum in the film Superman returns. The sole difference seems to be that Superman's kryptonite also contains fluorine whereas the new mineral does not.
Most of us are familiar with the story. Superman was sent to Earth just prior to the destruction of his home planet of Krypton. The Earth's sun provided Superman with the source of his powers while the only known object that could injure him was the radioactive material called kryptonite, essentially a piece of his home planet.
According to the comics and films, kryptonite is supposed to be green, glowing and radioactive, however the real mineral is white, powdery and non-radioactive, although Dr. Stanley, a mineralogist at London's Natural History Museum, claims that it does fluoresce a pinkish-orange color when exposed to ultraviolet light. Even if the fluorine were present, as in the kryptonite of lore, the mineral would remain white and non-radioactive.
The new mineral was recently put on display at Belgrade's Museum of Natural Sciences and visitors turned out in large numbers to catch a glimpse of it. Green lighting ensured the mineral took on the green hue of legend, a sight that conjured a world stranger than fiction.
The mineral, discovered by the mining group Rio Tinto, is to be formally named Jardarite after the name of the place where the mine was located in Serbia.
The commercial value of the mineral and its potential usage is not clear until further testing is done and the amount of the mineral deposit is assessed. Both boron and lithium are commercially viable elements used in industry to produce various products such as borosilicate glasses and lithium batteries.

I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer seven and a half years ago. The news was overwhelming. The painting depicts how I began; absorbing the shock and then going through the feelings of loss, bewilderment, and fear of the unknown.
But very quickly the practicalities take over: hospital, chemotherapy, scans. Wherever I went, whichever hospital or clinic, there was nothing but kindness, and this, together with the love and support of my family and friends, made this period not only bearable but illuminating as well.
And then, in time, everyday life (which is beyond the window in this picture) resumes. But it seems that the colors are brighter, the focus is sharper. And I have always kept in mind, like an internal beacon, lines from Robert Frost's poem: "But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep."

The Impact of News in the Dollar/Deutschmark Exchange Rate: Evidence from the 1990s
In this paper I analyze three specifications of spot exchange rate models by using an alternative approach in defining the news variable. In particular, I employ quarterly data of the U.S. dollar/German Mark exchange rate for the period 1991-1998 in order to determine whether the effect of news announcements on the exchange rate is still present in the decade of the 1990s. The empirical evidence suggests that news do not seem to provide explanatory power for justifying deviations from either the efficient markets hypothesis or the uncovered interest rate parity. Nevertheless, newspaper announcements and news about inflation do contribute to significantly explain short run departures from purchasing power parity (PPP) with the expected sign, supporting the view that deviations from PPP will arise from new information available in the market.

Easy Crock-Pot Shrimp Creole
Recipe by love2cook in Weathe
This is a Paula Deen recipe and it is, of course, amazing! I was surprised how easy it was! She served it over rice on her show so I did the same. I just used Minute white rice. The prep time will really depend on if your shrimp is already peeled and deveined. It really doesnt' take that long to do it yourself and the shrimp is usually cheaper that way. This truly was simple and delicios! Hope you enjoy it!

Former prime minister Kevin Rudd has used an address at Oxford University to suggest Scotland's push for independence is flawed because it benefits from being part of the United Kingdom.
Speaking to 300 students at the prestigious Oxford Union, the ex-politician began proceedings by declaring it was good to be back in the United Kingdom "so long as it remains united".
"Scotland enormously enhances Britain's global personality," he said on Saturday night.
"But equally, in terms of Scotland's already strong personality, frankly, it is enhanced further by where it is in the union."
The former Labor leader implored those voting in September to think wisely and clearly "and resolve, instead, in fact, Scotland is better placed where it is".
Mr Rudd jokingly asked students to imagine an independent Scotland where haggis was served at official state banquets.
"It would become a culinary assault on all tastebuds."
The Queenslander's wife, Therese Rein, has Scottish forebears.
Scotland will in September hold a referendum on its future that could result in the breaking up of the 300-year union with the United Kingdom.
Pop veteran David Bowie recently used his Brit award acceptance speech - which was delivered by supermodel Kate Moss - to say "Scotland stay with us".
The two largest political parties in Britain say, if Scotland votes to leave the union, it won't be able to keep the pound as its currency.
European Commission president Jose Manuel Barroso has said it would be "difficult, if not impossible" for an independent Scotland to join the European Union.
But Scottish politicians argue MPs in London shouldn't determine how Scots live their lives.

Chuck Todd reveals that Chris Matthews doesn't stand for anything
Blog ››› ››› ERIC BOEHLERT
Well, not technically. But boy, it sure sounded that way.
It's from a US News & World Report item about Todd discussing why Matthews decided not to run for the U.S. Senate from Pennsylvania (one of the great non-stories of our time):
NBC White House Correspondent Chuck Todd has a theory on why MSNBC's Hardball host Chris Matthews begged off from running for the Pennsylvania Senate seat held by Republican Arlen Specter. "Because [Chris] had a really good friend of his say to him, 'What are you going to do when you get there?' and he couldn't answer the question and he realized that, and that's why he didn't run," says Todd. "It was a childhood dream to be a senator, but he didn't know what he was going to do if he got there." [Emphasis added]
Matthews, who has been inside the Beltway for going on, what, four decades, who once worked on the Hill and has been commenting, non-stop, about politics for countless years, had no idea what he'd do if he were a senator.
We've said it before and we'll say it again here: The Beltway press doesn't do public policy. It doesn't get it, and it has even less interest in it. So no, we're not surprised Matthews couldn't figure out why he'd do, y'know for other people, if he ever got elected.
Meanwhile, take a look at Todd's closing comment:
It was the same for 2008 presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and John McCain, says [Todd] the coauthor of How Barack Obama Won. "They never knew why they wanted to be president."
Oh my. Say what you want about the campaigns of Clinton and McCain, but to suggest those two legislative veterans, who criss-crossed the country for more than a year, participated in dozens of televised debates, answered untold questions from voters and reporters and released all kinds of position papers, didn't know why they wanted to president is complete nonsense. Neither were able to convince enough voters they were the best person for the job, but both Clinton and McCain clearly had a vision and understanding of where they wanted to take the country. They were serious people with serious ideas.
Chris Matthews just likes to hear himself talk. But Chuck Todd will never say so.

The 'Roar' singer has been called out by 7 nutrition watchdogs to stop promoting the popular softdrink.
Being an international pop music superstar has an overreaching influence on young fans that a product endorsement can even put them at the risk of being overweight or obese. This is what "Roar" singer Katy Perry may have realized on Tuesday, October 22, when the Center for Science in the Public Interest and six other consumer health advocacy groups placed a one-page ad on Variety magazine slamming her for promoting the popular soft drink brand.
"Virginia Slims and other tobacco companies used glamorous celebrities and models to position smoking as hip, sexy and rebellious. Today soda companies are using you and other celebrities to convince young people that drinking soda is hip, sexy and rebellious. 'Drink Pepsi and you can be cool like Katy Perry,' is the takeaway message for your young fans. 'Live for now' and worry about the health consequences later," the nutrition watchdogs told the 28-year-old singer.
The open letter also appealed to Perry not to have her popularity be exploited in promoting something that "causes disease in your fans," reminding her that "being popular among children brings with it an enormous responsibility." Meanwhile, Pepsi spokeswoman Andrea Foote reassured everyone that the softdrink maker is "committed to not direct our advertising to audiences comprised predominantly of children under twelve."
With around 45 million Twitter followers, Perry is among the top celebrity endorsers that Pepsi has hired throughout the years, including Beyonce Knowles, Britney Spears and the late King of Pop Michael Jackson.
