SAM Collier has challenged his Shrivenham players to convert Tuesday night's victory over Kidlington into a prolonged run of success as they prepare to face Reading Town tomorrow.
The Barrington Park side won 3-2 in Oxfordshire to win their first game since Collier took over the club following the passing of former manager Dave Turner at the start of February.
Shrivvy face a Reading side sitting 10th in the Hellenic Premier table tomorrow and, while Collier knows it will be a tough clash, the boss is equally confident his side are capable of taking all three points.
"It was a huge relief to get the win and it was important that we got it, it was overdue and the lads deserved it after a really tough couple of months for them," he said.
"It wasn't just a case of us deserving it because it was also a three points we vitally needed given our position in the table and it moves us that little bit away from the bottom four which is really good as well.
"The next challenge is back-to-back wins and we really want to push on, get another win and then get ourselves on a nice, consistent run which can take us up the table, that's the important thing.
"If we can win one then we are capable of winning another, although this weekend's game is another tough one against a decent side with a decent budget.
"We can take all the positives from the other night because Kidlington are probably the best side I've seen us play, they passed it really nicely, but for 20 or 25 minutes they really couldn't live with us.
"If we can produce that again we have a chance against any side I think."
Despite his harsh red card against Ascot last weekend, Collier remains available for tomorrow's fixture as his suspension doesn't kick in until next week. However, it remains to be seen if the player-manager will move from defence back to his regular striking role following the acquisition of Fairford centre-half Nathan Hawkins this week.
"I'm still okay this Saturday which is good and we've also managed to bring in Nathan Hawkins from Fairford this week, he's a good player," he said.
"We'll have to decide whether or not I stay at the back or move back up front but we have a few other players coming back too so there's plenty of decisions to be made."

Silver Linings!
We have neglected this teaching for a long time, and that neglect is haunting us now. The rational arguments for marriage, for example, are founded on the understanding that openness to procreation is naturally built into the marital act. If it is OK for procreation to be excluded from sex, then there is no rational argument against all kinds of sexual variations. Other than the unique relationship to children, sex need not be limited in any particular way. Eliminate the possibility of children, and anything goes! That is just what we see in the debates about same-sex marriage -- it is about preferences, not principles.
Let's propose Jesus Christ -- including His teaching about what God intended for marriage from the beginning: "be fruitful and multiply"! That is what marital love does -- naturally!

It is frustrating that parish priests have avoided open discussion of Church views on contraception. Each time someone states the statistic of "the 98%" of Catholic women using contraception, I want to scream out, "I am the 2%!" As a young married woman who uses Natural Family Planning, I wish there was more dialogue within the Church that shows young women that contraception is not the only way.

The statistic that I've seen says 98%
of Catholic women have at some time
used artificial contraceptives. I
would fall into that category though
for the past 22 years I've followed
the Church's teaching and never
regretted it.
Found a few quotes from Catholic
women that might be of interest:
"The Church's stand on birth control
is the most absolutely spiritual of all her stands and with all of us
being materialists at heart, there
is little wonder that it causes unease." Flannery O'Connor from
"When man takes to himself the right
to use sex as pleasure alone, cutting it away from its creative aspect by artificial birth control,
by perverse practices, he is denying the absolute Supremacy of the Creative Deity." Dorothy Day
"We do believe that there is not only the genocide of war, the genocide that took place in the extermination of Jews but the whole
program--I'm speaking now as a Catholic--of birth control and abortion, is another form of genocide." Dorothy Day from a 1974

I feel exactly the same way! :0( This pic sais it all IMO!!!! We need some Frosta, Glimmer, Angella and Castaspella action!
Good point about the large pack or beast slot taking away from the regular 12 figures and variants slots, they are extra!!! There should be at least 2 POP figures as part of the 12 regular single sub figures as in previous years. POP fans signed up to the sub thinking there would be POP figures as part of the single monthly releases. Shadow weaver is Filmation character, not from the classic pop toyline. So she dosen't count! She is also an exclusive and free and not part of the 12 sub figures. There have been no POP figures revealed for the actual 12 single monthly figure slots as of yet! Hopefully we get 2 releaved, but at the very least one more POP character!

In the wake of speculation over why #wikileaks hadn't become a trending topic after all of the discussion surrounding the organization and its supporters, Twitter went on its blog to explain what it considers a trend and how to get to the top of the trending list.
"Put another way, Twitter favors novelty over popularity," the post says.
Mediaite gathers reaction from a couple of outlets.
And what's on top of the trending list at now? Bernie Sanders and his filibuster.

CONCERNED residents say that the possible closure and relocation of Marlow's Tourist Information Centre (TIC) would be a huge loss to the community.
The information and advice resource moved to a council-leased premises on the corner of High Street and Institute Road in 2009, and has teamed up with the Citizen's Advice Bureau from this month.
Worried readers told the MFP Marlow would be much worse off if the centre were to be shut following a Wycombe District Council review this month.
Marlow resident Samantha Brooks said: "The council I would imagine took a 10 year lease. But the information centre has only occupied this for 4 years. So more money lost or wasted until new tenants found.
"CAB has just been secured there at the information centre.
"Marlow will lose another vital part of the community. I know it's upset a good few Marlow residents."
Marlow's TIC moved from its previous spot at 31 High Street in 2009, with the current office costing WDC £271,500.
Open six days a week, the TIC provides a range of services centring on information for the thousands of leisure visitors to Marlow each month.
It also offers additional services such as help and advice with benefits and council services as well as a facility for paying council tax or parking fines.
WDC confirmed it will review tourism services throughout the district, but cannot reveal the scope of the discussion until the agenda for the meeting is released.
But there is a possibility the office could moved to another location in the town, possibly another council-run building.
Sarah Budd took to Facebook to say: "It's all very well cutting yet more standard amenities that every town should have. But funny how they don't cut the Council tax to reflect that change do they?! Insane. So much for it being a tourist town when it won't even have a Tourist Centre in it!"
But WDC insists it intends to keep a tourist and council services office in the town.
Spokesman Nick Sykes said: "The tourism tervice we provide across the district is about to be reviewed and there are no firm plans yet, but it is certainly our intention to keep an Information Centre in Marlow."
The premises was taken on a 25-year lease in 2009 and is split between the TIC and the Post Office.
A tenant break in 2019 would allow the entire space to be re-let, but if the TIC were to close before that WDC would need to market that section for re-letting.
A decision is expected to be made at the Cabinet meeting on September 22.

Ligonier Valley siblings place at PIAA wrestling tournament
Ligonier Valley High School wrestlers Josh Patrick and Justin Patrick competed in the PIAA AA wrestling state tournament recently.
Senior Josh Patrick finished fifth in the 120-pound weight class, winning three matches and losing two. He ended his season with a record of 27-2.
Junior Justin Patrick finished fourth in the 113-pound weight division, competing in six matches, where he won four and lost two. His record for the season was 34-5.
Josh Patrick won an 11-3 major decision against Colin Edsell from Wyalusing High School. He then scored a pin against Matt Williams from Pen Argyl High School at 2:03. In his third bout, Josh lost a 10-5 decision to defending state champion Darian Cruz from Bethlehem Catholic. He then lost again to Matt Welliver from Benton Area High School 5-3 in overtime. "Josh was a little flat in his match following the loss to Cruz and lost a tough overtime bout to Matt Welliver of Benton," head coach Brian Matson said.
In his final match, Josh Patrick won a 13-3 major decision against Josh Giorgio of Schuylkill Valley High School to take home fifth place.
Justin Patrick won a 9-2 decision against Eric Hunt from Warrior Run High School. He then lost a 3-1 decision to Korbin Myers from Boiling Springs. Justin Patrick won his next three matches, including a 6-3 decision against Stephen Maloney from Bethlehem Catholic and also scored pins against Willis Gruver from Redbank Valley at 0:33 and Josh Brown from Claysburg-Kimmel High School at 3:13. These wins earned Justin Patrick a spot in the third-place match, where he lost again to Korbin Myers in a 4-2 decision.
Matson said the 2013 state champion in the 113-pound class is Mickey Phillippi of Derry Area, whom Justin Patrick beat twice this year.

The National Shooting Sports Foundation, whose offices are located in Newtown, about three miles from Sandy Hook Elementary, just released its response to the, um, workproduct of Tailgunner Joe Biden's Civilian Disarmament Commission. And they're focusing on keeping guns out of the hands of those who shouldn't have 'em by "Fixing NICS" and education program to make sure gun owners lock up their heaters, especially in homes with "children or at-risk individuals." Press release after the jump . . .
All Americans share the goal of wanting to make our communities and children safer by reducing violence in our society, like the tragic incident that occured last month in our community of Newtown, Conn. We are reviewing Vice President Biden's recommendations with an open mind in hopes they will offer real means of achieving our shared goal.
The central issue involved in violence where a firearm is misused is the unauthorized access to the firearm. We believe it is critical to first focus on the unauthorized access to firearms by irresponsible persons and those not legally qualified to possess them.
We support immediate improvements to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) that will bring all appropriate mental health and other records, such as restraining orders, into the NICS system. Fixing NICS must be among the highest priorities in order to help further prevent illegal purchases of firearms from federally licensed retailers.
In order to help prevent unauthorized access to firearms in the home, we have long supported and are initiating an expanded safety campaign to promote the secure and responsible storage of all firearms and ammunition when not in use. We believe the personal responsibility of gun owners, especially if there are children or at-risk individuals in the home, is central to any meaningful discussion of the issues.
The NSSF will continue to lend its expertise to this important national conversation and the accompanying legislative and policy making processes. We do so respecting the various points of views represented in these discussions.
NOTE: The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) is the more than 8,000 member trade association for America's firearms, ammunition, hunting and shooting sports industry.
44 Responses to NSSF Picks NICS Fix in Statement on Biden Commission Recs
Screw the NSSF. We need to fight, not just take another unneeded encroachment on our freedom.
Plus another 1
seriously? Come on…
"National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) that will bring all appropriate mental health and other records, such as restraining orders, into the NICS system."
Thats fine with me. If you dont agree, you're insane. I'm happy with that thats all they're gonna get too. I have no problem with requiring a buyer have a background check. Hers a WIP chart im working on…
Feedback always welcome 🙂
The above would only require that at a gun show a would be buyer be verified prior to purchasing a firearm. Protecting both the seller and the buyer, while providing a reasonable "feel good measure" that isn't much of a big deal. I've passed background checks for employment, the Navy, and firearms. I'm ONLY OK with the above if the serial numbers are not tracked, just the sale.
Yeah, you're okay with it. I'm not. Once you start down the road of requiring private sales to be approved by the government, while at gun shows for now, then we start getting into the question of what constitutes a gun show. And then the gun grabbers will start demanding that all gun transfers be approved by the government. Then they will have the means to know where all guns are in the country. Yeah, just not the serial numbers. Whoopee.
OK, here's a little something for the NICS supporters to think about very carefully:
Once you have all that information collected in a nice, one-stop-shopping database, guess who else is going to want to use it?
Employers. Especially large companies.
There's a whole lot of shopping around that large companies do when they're seeking to vet applicants for jobs. They've tried stalking your Facebook page. They try running credit checks on applicants. They look for DMV violations, court records, etc.
Give NICS all this information and mark my words: Big companies will be lobbying to have access to it. They'll love the idea that they can get a "go/no-go" check from Uncle Sugar (with the details omitted) as to whether or not they want to employ someone.
And at that point, you'll see the likes of the ACLU and others start messing with the NICS system, because the employers won't let their access go. And we'll be right back where we started – or worse.
People should think carefully about what happens to information when it's gathered up into one neat little pile…
Compare this very well-reasoned, open-minded and reasonable postion to the increasingly irrelevant and often batshit crazy positions stated by today's NRA "leadership." We responsible gun owners need to let the NRA know that we need them to join the conversation, not scream wild and crazy accusations, engage in character assasination and perpetuate fringe conspiracy theory crap that just makes all of us look like we're nuts. Or does anyone reading this really believe that the NRA's position on this whole issue wasn't prepared and set in stone well before they sat down in DC?
100% agree. If you're not an nra member right now you're perception is that they are the fringe. The public has yet to hear them say anything about a commitment to reducing gun violence. I would love to hear them say something about how their members are committed to reducing gun violence while protecting the rights of law abiding citizens.
Unfortunately the antis have win the moral high ground, the nra doesn't seen at all interested in winning it back.
These days saying anything about "reduction of gun violence" appears to translate to "no more guns". I can understand people's reluctance to such statements, but on the other hand, if we, the responsible gun owners, use the same terminology, it'll water down.
The way the antis "won" the high ground is by ridiculing. The NRA in my view was very correct in holding back with making a statement and I'm amused by the fact that one of Obama's points is that of the NRA: Armed security in schools. I'm not particularly fond of federally mandated security in schools (because in the long run I expect a TSA-like constitutionally debatable behavior), but the idea of not hoping for the attacker's mercy like a helpless victim is appealing.
Sadly, the NRA made themselves look like a bunch of grumpy old men by yapping over computer games and movies. I'm surprised Marilyn Manson wasn't mentioned.
Gun control legislation is like Sex Panther Cologne. They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time, it works every time.
What about trident control?
You have a friend that killed a man with a trident. In broad daylight nonetheless.
To kill a man with a trident, you need to have some good trident control. Those things are not easy to handle.
LaPierre is a douche.
Really the NRA says it all the time. They are the ones saying enforce the 20,000 gun laws that are already in place. Like the woman that bought the AR for nutjob that shot those fireman. She should have the book thrown at her.
Also I think the NRA knows that something will happen, and are probably OK with NICS checks for all gun buyers but they never want to give an inch for fear of the slippery slope.
Its all about bargaining.
America is no longer on a slope, it is in Free Fall
There is already in place in Utah that collects and files ALL data on US citizens as well as other enemies of Obama. Once OCare kicks in and the Improved NICS we will find that "Rumored Spousal Abuse" "Financial Irresponsibilitys" even Traffic Infractions and visiting certain web sites will be enough to deney a purchase
I like this response a hell of a lot better than the NRAs.
+1, we need to focus on the "keep and bear" part of the second amendment, stopping gun/magazine bans, and expanding where you can carry. NICS (as long as records are destroy on time) doesn't restrict what I can have or where I can carry. Fighting it just because draws attention and effort away from what's important.
This response isn't perfect, but it doesn't have the crotchety-old-man feeling of the NRA's statement. As someone who enjoys video games, I can see how people might be offended by LaPierre's attempt to push focus to the likes of Call of Duty and Grand Theft Auto.
I'm 35 years old and enjoy playing Battlefield or Call of Duty on line with my friends. I am an officer in the US Army, and the vast majority of the men in my office between the ages of 18-35, play these games online as well. It is up to the parents to control access to these games.
I'm sorry, but I don't see anything wrong with the above statement? Can people tell me what they are having a problem with?
It doesn't mention the word "libtard" once.
It doesn't threaten civil war if their demands aren't met
It grants the premise that there is something that gun owners must give up to prevent violence. By granting that premise, it allows for more and more encroachments on our freedoms.
Not even a hundred years ago firearms technology was almost as highly developed as today and anyone could freely buy a machine gun and silencer and sawed off shot gun. There is nothing anyone can do to stop every madman who is intent on homocidal mayhem. But the NSSF agrees that we need even more obstacles to gun ownership, as though this has any impact on madmen. The only people these proposals affect are law abiding people who have a sudden need for firearms and can't get one because of a longer, more stringent process. It also helps create a registry, however much they deny it, of gun owners.
The progressives push and push to the left, while the conservatives never push back to the right, they only try to slow down the movement to the left. It's time to stop that leftward movement and start shoving back towards freedom.
Making sure that existing laws are enforced and educating people about safe storage is giving something up?
Did you notice number 2?
HIPAA was sold to us as protecting our medical privacy, but what it really does is create medical databases for insurance companies to keep people from changing insurance companies with pre-existing conditions. The reality is that HIPAA makes your data freely available to just about everyone except loved ones and others that you might ask to help you.
What #2 does, on its face, is take all this data that Americans believe is supposed to be private and give it all to the government. This is a HUGE change and now the government gains another foothold in having absolute control over your health and thus your life, all under the guise of keeping guns away from loonies.
Does anybody know the number of firearms related
murders and assaults committed with a legally bought
and owned weapon? Oddly enough I can't find
the numbers on this. I'm sure everyone's surprised.
If anyone does actually know, please point me in the
right direction.
Isn't that largely due to the NRA lobbied restrictions on firearms research though?
May or may not be, the problem with such research and the reason it was stopped and supported being stopped by many, was because of the way it was lined up to be used to demonize firearms owners and even threaten to increase insurance or deny them insurance because they own guns.
Look, the antis can play the "we are just doing it for the kids" game all they want, they know it won't pass the muster of history. Gun control is a failed experiment.
I'd still like to have accurate data to base an argument on.
Agreed, but for the antis to insinuate
that all firearms used in a crime are
lawfully possessed is as much a fallacy
as saying firearms are deadlier than
So how can anybody say any of the
new laws or EOs will have any affect
without data to support them?
I definitely not advocating a national
registry, just pointing out that
without data the only thing left is
the emotion card.
This statement is 100 percent in line with the NRA, they are focused on things that will actually protect kids, not things that wont, like gun bans and NOT putting protection in our schools.
On a side note, I think it is time for Wayne to let someone else be the speaker, like Chris Cox, he just doesnt present the image as well.
Oh, come now. How else will he earn that nearly $1m salary and wine and dine congressmen while at the same time refuse to protect our rights in court?
If the NRA issued this statement, some of the commenters here would be labeling them as traitors. People, you can't have it both ways. Either the NRA is too radical or not radical enough — it can't be both. Make up your damn minds.
The NSSF represents the manufacturers. As we know from prior experience, the manufacturers will roll over and p!ss themselves if POTUS looks at them crosseyed. That's what Bill Ruger and S&W did when Clinton stared at them. They sold out. They sold us out. Well, Bill Ruger is dead and S&W has had a change of management, but I don't expect either company — nor their mouthpiece, the NSSF — to do things any differently this time around.
The NRA represents us. They haven't just said "no," they've said "f^ck no." They've taken a hard line and goddammit, they'd better. If they want to keep their base and their membership, they had better be as radical as me, or more.
There is a special place reserved in hell for the manufacturers and NSSF because they will do nothing in this time of moral crisis.
Ralph, me thinks these statements are coming from some 'knew visitors', if ya know what I mean. The ideological statements identify the person and their agenda.
Yes, it does seem to be AstroTurf.
Agreed. And I'm tired of this boiling frog crap. Either keep the temperature where it's at, reduce it, or make them throw the ****ing thing into the fire so everyone can at least see what the real deal is.
**Applause, Applause**
Agree Ralph, and as an FFL and a gun business, I'm among the cohort that could actually apply to join the NSSF as a voting member. Not feeling the urge to do so is what keeps me from sending in an app.
I remember the Ruger roll-over on magazine size and the S&W sellout. S&W, especially, took a really hard hit from gun owners in the aftermath of their ham-handed sellout to the Clinton administration.
In the last decade, the NSSF appears to have learned that gun owners are perfectly willing to go after sellouts and quislings in our ranks, so they tread more carefully now.
There's a reason why liberals demonize the NRA: The NRA wins political battles behind the scenes in DC. The NRA can cause people to lose elected office. The NRA has a lobbying and voter information machine so well oiled, it practically qualifies for designation as an EPA Superfund site.

TOSOS Presents THE PARADE OR APPROACHING THE END OF A SUMMER Reading, 8/25
The Robert Chesley/Jane Chambers Playwrights Project
presents a reading of The Parade or Approaching the End of a Summer by Tennessee Williams, directed by Mark Finley and featuring Paul Caiola, Emily Hartford, Irene Longshore
and Jeremy Lawrence. The reading is set for 7:30pm on Saturday, August 25, 2012.
ART/NY is located at 520 Eighth Avenue, 3rd Floor- Bruce Mitchell Room, New York, NY. Runtime: About 1 hour. Cost: Free!
Completed in 1940 when Williams was 29 years old and revised in the 1960's, this newly rediscovered one act is a surprisingly autobiographical play about first love after the author had "finally come thoroughly out of the closet".
The TOSOS Robert Chesley / Jane Chambers Playwrights Project is a forum for playwrights to have their work read to an invited audience. No staging. No Q and A. Just an opportunity to be heard.
It is named to honor Jane Chambers (1937-83) and Robert Chesley (1943-90), arguably two of the most original and impassioned voices to contribute to the canon of GLBT theatre.
TOSOS ("The Other Side of Silence") is dedicated to preserving the theatrical heritage of the LGBT community through the development of new plays by emerging artists as well as revivals of established works.

Post subject: WIN at ROULETTE!
The intricacies of the "THEORY OF CONVERGING TRENDS" are detailed and tedious, and cannot be fully explained in a such a forum. I am , however, completing a book on the subject. To summarize, the house is dependent on the unbiased randomness of the wheel. Any bias, whether it be a simple consistency in the roll of the croupier, or a sticky slot on the wheel, will be siezed upon by savvy players...or inside cheats. In video play, the house uses a formula which takes a sample of INFINITY! Since the house (or anyone else for that matter) cannot encompass infinity, they rely on a HUGE sample derived from a mathematical formula. Let me just say, for example, that somewhere in the line of infinity, "BLACK 17" COMES IN 400 TIMES IN A ROW. But will you ever see it? Would you expect to see it? The answer is no! Converging trends eliminates practical impossibilities and narrows in on the practical probabilities. Some houses have already picked up on parts of this theory, and have installed software to BIAS AGAINST THE PLAYER! even more than the natural house edge. Put simply, where the ball will land is based on the players BETTING PATTERNS!, and NOT total randomness! This ought to be ILLEGAL! , but the gaming authorities don't flinch, either because they are ignorant, or choose to remain so because of their gold fleeced pockets. Vegas was built on losers, so the whole mindset is that they want you to lose, and regulate who wins. This flys in the face of the innocent and trusting player who thinks he is going mono y mono with a regulated group of casino owners who must play fair! The casinos DO NOT PLAY FAIR. CONVERGING TRENDS also addresses how the house , in it's attempts to further bias the wheel, can end up biting itself in the @#%. with the correct player at the table. Let me know if you would like to hear more. Book available soon.

Hi Luc,
i think every player on the game wants to know more to be able to achieve more
if it is possible!!
i think not.
Else everybody would be doing this and the casino's would have to close theire doors
Also because as you pointed out yourself. that already on advantage that the casino has. think about the fact that when you put on a number you only receive 36 instead of 37 (0) or 38 (0 - 00).
and the same for betting on the corner, lines, street, even outside bets are NOT 50/50 because you have the 0 and 00 next to the red/black, or even/odd.
so statistically the player always loose!
THEN adding extra the software as you mentioned.
would indeed mean that a player can never win.
so you made me curious
about what magic you can come up with
hear you soon ?!

Thanks - I would be interested.
It seams from some of my play and what I've read out there - there does seem to be some sort of "twitchiness" in the online programming.
I always seem to do very well right out of the gate, but as I stay online i go the other way.
I can't help to think "THEY" may be clocking me.
So, I can see if there is some sort of mischief going on , it could certainly
turn around and bite them in the %#*&!
I for one would like to take a big bite out of their bank - especially if they
are playing dirty.
By the way I got some advice recently on this subject stating that you
should log off every half hour and clear your cache and cookies.
Let me know when you have the book ready and if you need any beta testers.

Post subject: Out of the Gate
Casino's , and the bodies that "govern" them are on the take....for your dollars! They will spend MILLIONS trying to expose "CHEATS". If you don't lose, they don't want you there!!!....and they will automatically try to defame you and your brilliance by labeling you a "CHEAT" IF YOU PLAY TO WIN!! Just think about it the next time you visit a casino. Blatantly obvious are the miked security , eyes constantly searching for that one uncomfortable player who is actually winning. Every time I win, there's a whisper to the pit boss and that uncomfortable uneasy feeling that if I win anymore, I will find my legs in a bucket of cement by mid-morning.Then there's the camera's. Millions of your losing dollars invested spying on your every move. Believe me, if they could spy on your every thought, they would do that too. Coked out security personnell, overzealous and fearful pit bosses, hundreds of cameras, camera monitoring personnell, private investigators...and that's just what you see!! Imagine what you DON'T see!! Just how intense is the effort behind the scenes to ensure the casino's bottom line by MAKING SURE YOU LOSE!!??!! Therein lies the UNSEEN MILLIONS spent on developing special software to track your betting patterns, profile players in general to entice them to bet more with no real chance of winning. THIS IS WHERE THE TRUE BEAUTY OF THIS SYSTEM PREVAILS!! IF THERE'S IS ONE THING YOU CAN COUNT ON, IT IS THE CASINO'S DESIRE FOR YOU TO LOSE ALL YOU CAN WHILE YOU'RE THERE. And as with any trend betting system, you need something you can count on to establish the basis of your theory. This is where I began....

Post subject: Theory of Converging Trends...the basics
Well, let's begin!
Trend bettors depend on patterns. Sometimes it is not unlike studying the footsteps of pigeons and trying to discover some secret algorithm (IT'S A BEAUTIFUL MIND, Russell Crowe) ... one that was previously undiscovered and will give you a godlike capacity to understand infinity.
Unknown to most , when trends are studied and theory established, they are often picking up on biases that are both built in, or PLANTED there by software designers . It is important that a wheel, or video play, is studied before it is played. Samples must be taken, and an overstudy done.
Most trend players hope to be lucky enough to have the same trends they studied develop "in the field"....that is, while they are playing. Yes, it happens sometimes. Sometimes.
But have you ever gotten that uncanny feeling that if you play your trend(s) to the bitter end, that some satanic force is hovering close by with a crooked sneer...egging you on. You shrug it off as paranoia...but as your last bet loses, you feel the sharpened tines glance your jugular and pin your neck to the turf.
This is not Satan, but the purveyors of his deeds...the casino conglomerate. I take no greater satisfaction than allow such an entity to brashly deceive me with a smile and a wink...thinking that I am the sucker, and help them with their deception while building a bankroll and winking right back!
Step one is the study. Of course, you must study the field and develop betting trends. But you must also study the casino, the demeanor of it's staff and pit bosses. Step one is to find the crappiest , shiftiest, most untrustable ones. They are the ones that are more likely to look upon you as a sucker and an idiot. This will play into your hands. Let me tell you...you can gain a lot of sublime power over a liar and a cheat...when you know he is lying. I will continue this later....

Post subject: Understanding the deception....
Casino owners believe in artful deception. The believe that they can sucker you in, keep you ever hopeful, and take all your money. They will provide you with enough "coulda ...shoulda...woulda's" to make you want to come back....to lose again.
Slots are a majority of their take. A simple thoughtless game without skill , and requiring no cranial effort. Perfect. Software built right in ...software based on studies of betting impulses and patterns, designed to draw you in and keep you pulling the lever. Mind numbed idiots have built billion dollar hotels along the strip with their losing dollars. Casino owners are not the least bit fearful of these players. They have them in the bag.
However, they have failed to make the distinction between hapless lucky play...and games such as ROULETTE, which can be manipulated. You see, they have tried to apply the sucker slot mentality to a game that can be trended by the mere fact that there are a finite set of numbers.
Let me at last make a distinction between video roulette, and the raw wheel. Video roulette is manipulated by software. Potentially....you could bet on 37 numbers....the software could recognize that....and the ball would land on the 38th number. Unfair , I know...but not beyond them.
When playing raw roulette, the house edge is lessened, but the manipulation is still there. Wheels are changed out, new croupiers every 10 minutes, whispers to the dealer to vary ball speed, hastened play, oh....and free drinks!! Just to name a few.
Upon entering either of the deceptions, you must become the deceiver. Even though I enjoy the calmer atmosphere in video play, I still prefer the real wheel. There is only so much they can do there. In the dark shadows of the video roulette software, they can manipulate in an unbridled capacity. Still, there is room for countermeasure...and room to WIN!!
CONVERGING TRENDS....is a manipulation of patterns. First, develop your trends focusing in on one particular wheel on one particular day. You must first have developed some pre-concieved trends so that your effort is timely. I have about ten that I can keep in my head....and quickly run through before I place my bets. Next time...."The Trends"

BCBGMAXAZRIA Sydnee Knit Maxi Skirt featured in gray (left) and black (right), $44. Click on the images above to shop.
I love maxis for the spring and summer, but did you know that a trend started last year to wear them during the fall? Well I'm happy to report that I just snagged my first one…for the fall, that is. It's a cute little knit skirt…I guess you could consider it to be a sort of sweater maxi. At any rate, it'll be a great addition to my fall wardrobe. I scored it from Marshall's for just $25.
I normally wear my maxi skirts with flat sandals…it's my go-to look for the summer…but with fall being so cool in Georgia, I would look like an idiot wearing sandals. So how should I wear my maxi skirt for the fall? Well being the Budget Shopaholic, I found a few things that might work for me…and they might work for you too.
1. You can always go retro with your maxi by going back to the 80s. You can pair your maxi with a slouchy sweater and a pair of flat, slouchy boots. This will make for a cute and casual look. And it will also make you or your mom (depending on your age) really nostalgic!!
2. Another thought is to go with a more tailored look by pairing your maxi skirt with a blazer, blouse and a nice pair of pumps…or better yet a cute pair of loafer pumps (if loafer pumps are for you). Either way, this would be a great look for the office.
3. I'm a BIG Gossip Girl fan, and this next idea was inspired by the show. Even though I like them all, this New York socialite idea is my favorite. Try pairing your maxi skirt with a fur vest collar, a plain long sleeved tee and lace-up wedge booties or lace-up oxfords. With this outfit, you would be the envy of Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively's character on the show for those of you who don't follow the show)!!
4. Last but certainly not least, you can always go rocker chic if you're into the edgy look. I probably have a little over 25 leather jackets (probably more…). Among them is a buckled motorcycle leather jacket. If I'm going for an edgy look, I'd pair that maxi skirt with my jacket (similar to the one below), a printed top and a pair of buckle high heeled booties. This would be a great club outfit for those cool fall nights.

London – Robin van Persie will be fit to face Real Madrid in next week's Champions League clash, despite picking up a bizarre hip injury during Manchester United's win over Queens Park Rangers.
Van Persie fell into a TV camera pit at Loftus Road after losing his balance while setting up Rafael's thunderbolt opener for United in the 23rd minute.
After receiving lengthy treatment he soldiered on, but his discomfort was such that Sir Alex Ferguson was forced to replace his prolific striker with Danny Welbeck four minutes before the break.
Despite the scare, Van Persie's injury is limited to bruising, so he is only expected to be out of training for two to three days.
It remains to be seen whether Ferguson chooses to keep Van Persie in reserve when United entertain Norwich on Saturday, just three days ahead of the second leg against Real at Old Trafford on March 5.
United are well placed after Welbeck grabbed a precious away goal in the first-leg 1-1 draw in Madrid.
At Loftus Road, United were again indebted to one of football's finest veterans as they moved another step closer to reclaiming the Premier League trophy. Over the years QPR boss Harry Redknapp has relied on a few players in the autumn of their careers, but he has never had a player of Ryan Giggs' class.
And how Redknapp must have wished Giggs had not decided to be a one-club man as he watched the 39-year-old pull the strings for United in the 999th competitive game of his career. Giggs was brilliant, picking out passes with incredible vision and dictating the tempo before sealing United's win with an accurate strike.
He even had a hand in United's opener, stealing the ball off Adel Taarabt to begin the attack which culminated in Rafael's screamer.
"It is getting boring," joked Rafael when asked to sum up Giggs. "He is an unbelievable player. Every game you see him, he works hard, scores, makes assists.
"He is just such a good player. He's the same in training; he just loves the game. He gives us experience, confidence and when you are feeling bad he comes and helps you, especially young players. Sometimes a young player finds it tough and he helps. He pulls the player aside. He spoke to me a lot when I was young. He knows it from playing for 22 years."
A succinct summing up of Giggs' importance to the cause, on and off the field, from a player who had yet to celebrate his first birthday when his teammate made his United debut.
Redknapp celebrates his 66th birthday when QPR next go in search of a vital win which he hopes will spark a remarkable comeback. That game takes place away to his former club Southampton. 'I thought there is no better way to spend my birthday than getting 90 minutes of abuse at Southampton Football Club," quipped the QPR manager.
"They will be calling me scummer for my time at Portsmouth. I thought, 'That's a great way to spend my 66th birthday'."Earplugs would seem to be the perfect present, but Redknapp would doubtless be delighted to unwrap three crucial points. – Daily Mail

Mitsubishi Eclipse, Endeavor To Die In August
Mitsubishi is killing both its Endeavor crossover and Eclipse coupe and convertible due to slow sales, with both vehicles scheduled to die off in August.
The Endeavor never found much love amongst car buyers, but the Eclipse has a long history in the performance car segment, even if its moved further away from its original formula with each generation. Mitsubishi also announced the end of their famous Lancer Evolution sports car, and will eventually trim their model lineup to the Lancer, Outlander, Outlander Sport and Galant. Mitsubishi will also introduce the all electric i in limited numbers in late 2011.

Ask any copilot of a HUD-equipped airplane what a low-visibility approach looks like, and the answer will be the same–no different from any other airplane. But that's not because the HUD doesn't help. It's because traditionally HUDs have been installed only on the captain's side, and their optics require the user to be sitting in front of the screen. Looking sideways at the display doesn't work, with the result that however high-tech the airplane, the copilot's view ahead is really no different from what it would be in a DC-3.
But now copilots have a champion in JetBlue, which has specified HUDs for both the captain and the copilot of the new Embraer 190 regional jet. Launch customer for the Brazilian airliner, the upstart airline has ordered 100 copies (with deliveries beginning later next year) and holds options on 100 more. Currently, JetBlue operates 60 non-HUD-equipped Airbus A320s, with a further 123 on order and options on an additional 50. In terms of numbers of aircraft ordered, JetBlue is Airbus's fourth largest customer, and it may well be the largest customer for the Embraer 190.
JetBlue Embraer 190 program vice president Usto Schulz said "One of the primary benefits of the new HUD system will be that our Embraer 190 flight crews will now be able to fly every approach the same way, in good weather and in bad, from the left seat or the right seat, to ILS-equipped runways or on nonprecision approaches. This will reduce our flight-crew training costs and increase the margins of safety in our operation."
For its new airplanes, JetBlue has not only opted for dual HUDs, but has gone one step further and ordered next-generation systems from Rockwell Collins' Flight Dynamics division. Called Head-up Guidance Systems (HGS), these new units incorporate advanced electronics and replace the traditional CRT projector with LCD technology for crisper presentations, better performance in high ambient light conditions and extended MTBFs (AIN, November 2003, page 102).
Most HUD manufacturers are developing LCD-based HUDs, but Flight Dynamics can claim that its HGS units on board JetBlue's Embraer 190s next year will be the world's first installations of the technology. Flight Dynamics is also aiming for Cat III certification by mid-2006. Alitalia, which has ordered 12 Embraer 190s, has specified Flight Dynamics systems, but just on the captain's side. Flight Dynamics units are also standard options on the smaller Embraer 170.
Despite the fact that its origins go back to the gyro gunsights of World War II, the HUD concept has taken a long time to gain acceptance in the civil marketplace, and only in the last few years have there been significant sales in the airline and high-end corporate communities. One stumbling block has been the equipment's cost–an Embraer spokesman said that the list price for the dual Flight Dynamics HGS installation in the Embraer 190 was $600,000, including the acquisition cost of the equipment and its extensive integration with the onboard avionics.
But the benefits are now being recognized by many operators as greater than the costs– Southwest Airlines' entire fleet of 400+ Boeing 737s is equipped with HGSs, and FedEx announced late last year that it would equip its entire widebody fleet with Honeywell/ Kollsman HUDs, starting in 2007 or 2008 (AIN, July, page 86). These will also embody LCD technology, but, as at Southwest, they will be captain-side installations only, except in the company's Airbus A380 mega-freighters, which will have dual installations when delivered in 2008.
The next step for the HUD/HGS industry is the integration of infrared enhanced vision systems (EVS) into the presentation. At the European Regions Airline Association Conference in November, association director general Mike Ambrose said, "EVS technology potentially offers the next major breakthrough in improving air safety. It's like giving the pilot his eyes back." Here, the corporate aviation community has been the pioneer, with Gulfstream and Bombardier offering EVS options, from Kollsman and CMC Electronics, respectively, for the HUD systems in their top-of-the-line airplanes. The FedEx HUDs will also incorporate Kollsman EVS systems. Flight Dynamics' parent, Rockwell Collins, had earlier stated its intention to offer EVS with the HGS as part of its total integrated flight-deck avionics suite, and at press time was close to announcing its chosen supplier.

Publisher: Digital Reality
Genre: Arcade Racer
Players: 1-8
ESRB: Everyone
Reviewer: Nick Stewart
Overall: 7.5 = Good
For all the many arcade racers available in any given console's online marketplace, the one subgenre that remains ill served is that of aerial combat. Land and even sea have seen their own strong successes, but very few developers have bothered to lift gamers into the sky, giving them the freedom to explore extra dimensions of control while trying to blast away madly at their opponents. It's a void into which SkyDrift comfortably and boisterously strides, bringing it with it a certain swagger along with its imposing vistas, nail-biting speed, and over-the-top powerups. It may not be completely successful in all it attempts to do, but it comes close enough to impress.
Like any good arcade racer, SkyDrift is completely bereft of plot: it's all about doing what it takes to cross the finish line as quickly as possible, and doing whatever it takes to get there. The game throws three different sets of parameters for doing so, however, depending on the mode set for a particular race, and these are split along some pretty familiar lines. In one, you've got access to a decent slate of powerups as you battle a number of other racers to the finish line; in another, you've got none at all, instead zipping through speed hoops dotted throughout the course. There's also Survival mode, otherwise known in other genre offerings as Last Man Standing; in other words, the last-placed racer is eliminated every so often until there's but one flyer left. It's a simple and straightforward set of modes that nevertheless manages to keep things interesting, despite offering nothing new or particularly noteworthy.
What is interesting, of course, is the aerial nature of the game itself. Rather than just having to navigate left and right, SkyDrift players will have to contend with the more complex issues of up, down, and all-around-the-obstacles navigation. This sounds like a simple matter on paper, but once you've got a full head of steam and the surrounding terrain is blurring around you as you tear through the air in a frenzied effort to beat out your competitors, it can be awfully challenging to duck underneath that stone arch, avoid the oil rig support beam, or peel diagonally downwards around an ice structure. Making things even more complicated—or simple, depending on your perspective—is the use of the right stick to seamlessly and quickly slip your plane into the "knife's edge" position, where your wings are along the vertical axis rather than the horizontal. This allows you to slip between some of the extremely tight squeezes present throughout many of the courses, and indeed is quite often required to keep from crashing and losing precious seconds, over and over again. All considered, the controls are certainly a little out of the ordinary for an arcade racer, and fans of this particular subgenre may find a certain exhilaration in being given considerably more room to maneuver, so to speak. There is a dark side to this level of ability, however, and that is a much stronger level of difficulty, as you're duking it out not only against the other players (who have weapons), your own reckless (and admittedly entertaining) sense of speed, but also against the very courses themselves. Without sufficient skill and considerable practice, you're all but guaranteed to repeatedly smash into countless cliff faces and lava flows. For some, this challenge can be entertaining, but for others, the patience required may be too much to ask for.
There is something to be said for those courses, though, which in many ways are the real star of SkyDrift. Surprisingly stunning and often quite beautiful, the racing venues are notable if for nothing else but their sheer visual appeal, even if there are too few of them. From dust-filled quarries to moss-covered jungles, from rivers of lava to powerful waterfalls, there's a pretty decent quantity of eye candy at hand. And even as you endlessly watch yourself explode against its beauty as you fail to adequately navigate that attractive terrain, you can't help but be a least a little entranced. Still, endlessly explode you shall, and all the glorious graphics in the world can't mask courses that sometimes feel a little unfair. The treacherous nature of the courses lends a certain thrill, initially, but eventually that gives way to a sense that maybe it's a bit much, given the inherent challenge of high-speed aerial combat racing. This feels particularly true when you're faced with looming walls that spring out into existence on the flip side of a hairpin turn, for instance. Worse are the situations where it's not at all obvious where the boundaries of the course really are: in many of the open-air courses, you're led to believe you can easily soar above a certain rock ledge, because the game fails to notify you that the boundary of the course lies below it. You'll find yourself being unceremoniously dragged down by an invisible, unavoidable hand flat onto the slab of rock until you explode, and it's a frustrating experience that replicates itself several times across a few of the courses.
Strangely, the powerups often make things easier, not harder. Though relatively simple, this element actually helps to ground the experience somewhat more solidly, levelling the playing field a bit for those who bother to make good use of it. From missiles to machineguns to shields and repair kits, floating powerups allow players to briefly get somewhat of a leg up on their opponents. There's depth here, too: by holding back and stacking the same type of powerup onto one you already hold, you double its power and effectiveness, making you a much more daunting foe. If you prefer, you can instead convert your powerup into boost, something that gives you a bit of a tactical choice as you consider whether trying to down the pack leader or instead blow past him with a well-timed injection of speed. It's a series of decisions that should by all rights make the game even more challenging but instead help to make the experience somewhat more palatable for less-experienced sky captains.
Overall: 7.5/10
Unlike many arcade racers, SkyDrift is not for the faint of heart. For all incredibly beautiful courses and seemingly blast-'em-style approach, the game is remarkably difficult, giving very little leeway to newcomers to the aerial racing scene. The added freedom as a racer actually complicates the experience dramatically, particularly when you factor in the often breakneck speeds, wily AI, and sometimes unforgiving course design. For the first long while, expect to repeatedly explode, often in what little time it takes for your respawn invulnerability to wear off. This isn't to say that the game isn't often capable of providing some incredible flashes of fun, particularly when you've properly timed a volley of missiles against the frontrunner, or chewed up a good spot of boost to take the lead. Still, with a strong sense of challenge, SkyDrift is for a somewhat specific type of gamer who will surely find their own sense of entertainment and glory deep in its iron-fisted aerial discipline.

Attention all people who shave: you are being taken for a costly ride by the shaving product industry. From razors to creams to gels to balms, chances are you are paying too much to cut the hairs on your body.
None for me, thanks.
While I believe the advice I'm going to give you will likely apply to all shaving; I only have experience with these methods in the face and head shaving department. Ladies, if this works well for you, let me know. Otherwise, just share this post with your husbands, boyfriends, fathers, sons, uncles and nephews.
Conventional wisdom these days when it comes to shaving seems to be twofold. First more blades means a better shave. It's almost ridiculous how many blades the high end razors are sporting these days. Five, plus one on the back? Wow. What definitely IS ridiculous is the amount of money these things cost. Stopping by my local grocery store, the most expensive by far was $20.99 for only four cartridges. You know razors have gotten too expensive when they have to be kept behind the cashier for fear of theft.
Can you believe those prices!?
The reason why guys are willing to shell out that kind of cash is that they are looking for a close, comfortable shave. In that quest they will also be willing to spend a bit more for the most advanced gels possible. After all, expensive razors must work best with expensive shaving cream, right? After all, says Conventional Wisdom, you have to use shaving cream.
Well, what if it was all a racket*? What if shaving cream and the crazy-costly blades were completely unnecessary?
I used to dread shaving. No matter what I tried, I would always end up with a scraped, irritated face. I tried the aforementioned gels and fancy blades (never 5 blades though!). The only thing that worked even kind of well was let my facial hair grow for a minimum of two days. I could never shave on back to back days without bleeding all over the place. No more.
Now I know the truth: Shaving cream is for suckers.
Think about it, why do you even use shaving cream (or gel)? It's because that's how you were taught to shave, right? Have you ever tried any alternative? This is conventional wisdom at it's finest – knowledge being passed on and on without ever testing or questioning if it is correct. It's not that your dad or grandfather was trying to trick you – they had been taken by the shaving cream industry also.
Going without shaving cream – just a blade and water – will give you the closest, fastest, safest, and greatest shave you've every had. And to get it you won't have to break the bank on the rolls-royce of razors.
The steps are simple. In order to wean your face from it's dependency on lotions and creams, you shouldn't jump right into shaving with water only. Start with a warm, wet face. Coming right out of the shower and shaving is great, but not necessary. Apply baby oil or mineral oil to your face, and shave as usual. For the first couple of days you might experience more irritation than normal, but that will pass. After five days to a week, you can stop using the oil and start shaving with just warm water.
A great shave makes me happy.
Your razors will last longer. I shaved to get the picture you see here, and I'm using the same razor (Schick 3-blade disposable, 8 for $7.49) today, three days after Father's Day, that I used on Mother's day. I'm tracking to see how long it will last. Today's shave also happens to be one of the best I can ever remember having. Zero razor burn or irritation.
I no longer need any after-shaves or lotions to sooth my face, which saves me further money.
Your shave will be better. Your face will feel better. Your life will be better – you'll spend less time shaving and less money on useless products.
Make the switch today. Reject conventional wisdom. Free yourself from slavery to the cylindrical steel can forever!

Have you ever tried to go cream or gel-less when shaving for any length of time? Are you willing to give it a try? Why or why not? Please share this post with all the men whose face you care about!
