Sergei Shepelev, F
Shepelev stole all the headlines in the final game showdown of the 1981 Canada Cup. The world was watching Canada's 21 year old superstar Wayne Gretzky on a line with Guy Lafleur and Marcel Dionne, and the newly formed Russian top line of Vladimir Krutov, Igor Larionov and Sergei Makarov. But it was the anonymous Shepelev who was the game's hero, scoring three goals en route to Russia's humiliating 8-1 defeat of Team Canada.
It was Shepelev's second hat trick of the tournament. He also scored three times against Czechoslovakia, giving him a team best six tallies for the tourney. Only Canada's Mike Bossy had more.
The 26 year old Shepelev seemingly had come out of nowhere. As a younger player he was a winger with Avtomobilist Sverdlovsk who was criticized by the Russian hockey theorists who felt Shepelev was too aggressive and "too arrogant."
In 1980 he had joined Spartak Moscow where famed coach Boris Kulagin almost immediately turned him into a center. It was a seemingly odd move, given that Shepelev's lack of training as a center often troubled his defensive game and his passing, two must-have traits of centers in the Soviet system. Shepelev was a winger at heart, wanting to rush the puck and cheat offensively looking for quick breaks instead of playing high and springing the wingers.
Despite the unlikeliness of success, Kulagin captured lightning in a bottle. For a couple of years in the early 1980s Shepelev's line with Sergei Kapustin and Viktor Shalimov was as good as any line in the world. In the 1981 Canada Cup that line with unmatchable speed out-performed the KLM Line, the Gretzky-Lafleur-Dionne line and the Trottier-Bossy-Gillies line.
He was an important member of the Soviets 1981, 1982, and 1983 gold medal teams at the world championships.
Shepelev's last year with the national team was 1984, without Kapustin and Shalimov. He participated with the 1984 gold medal winning team at the Sarajevo Olympics. His last appearance with the national team came back at the Canada Cup.
All told Sergei Shepelev played in 46 games with the Soviet national team at the Olympics, Worlds and Canada Cup. He scored 22 goals and 38 points.

This post was originally created in late 2015, but due to problems with Word Press I was unable to publish it til mid-2016.
Earlier this month I made another trip to Taiji, the town in Wakayama Prefecture that has become notorious worldwide for its dolphin hunts, largely by virtue of the 2009 Oscar-winning documentary "The Cove."
Last weekend the Japan Times published a story about that trip, which can be found online here. I am grateful to the JT for giving me ample space for this story, but as always there are details that had to be cut, partly to fit the JT on Sunday format, but also because I was unable to verify the validity of some of them.
I thought I would write down a couple of those omitted points here, but before I do I also wanted to thank the JT readers who took time to comment on the Taiji issue. Almost all of them were not commentary on the story itself, but were from readers who wanted to make their own feelings known about this very controversial issue. Some of the comments provoked some (heated) debate, which is always healthy. But it struck me that one or two of those comments may have benefitted from information that sadly was self-edited from my original draft for the above-mentioned reasons, thus prompting me to write this post.
One of the comments made on the JT online site was: "Why single out dolphins? And why Taiji when several other small communities such as the Faroe Islands practice the same thing?" Another said: "The Faroe Islands should get as much press as Taiji, but because of ulterior and suspect motives Taiji gets all the attention."
Indeed, Taiji is not the only place that caries out dolphin drives. In fact, even within Japan there are other places that take or have taken a far more significant number of cetaceans in their drives, but do so far out to sea where they are less conspicuous and easy to scrutinize. The hunts in the Faroes date back far longer than those in Taiji, but if former dolphin trainer-turned activist Ric O'Barry is to believed that is all about to end.
According to O'Barry, the Faroes has agreed to end its dolphin culls in exchange for $30,000 per annum. He should know: the person who apparently brokered that deal is his son. But there's a hitch: "All we need to do is find that money," says O'Barry.
As mentioned in the JT story, some people in Taiji believe that activist groups (especially Sea Shepherd) are motivated by nothing else but money, and that by emphasizing what they see as the bloody/cruel/barbaric nature of the dolphin drives, they can play the sympathy card far more effectively and attract more funding. "Look at the people who support (the activists)" said one employee at a whale processing company who I interviewed. "There's Hollywood stars and others with the financial clout to keep these protests going for a long time. The way to their wallets is blood, blood, blood."
And it's not just the activists. Simon Wearne, a former Sea Shepherd cinematographer-turned Taiji researcher, says he was surprised during his time filming the TV series "Whale Wars" to learn of the time and resources expended on issues such as whaling and dolphin hunting when the "real issue" – melting ice caps — was being pretty much ignored.
Unrelated to this is a comment that was made by a friend who questioned my lack of a voice from the Taiji government in the JT story. I did interview an official at the town offices (and in a way regret not reinstating this into the story), but the information that was forthcoming from that quarter was sadly lacking in any real substance.
Which was not unexpected, but nonetheless frustrating. I had written up a letter in Japanese explaining my purpose for researching the JT story, and had it vetted and stamped by the editors at the paper, but it made little difference with this official. Ignoring my first question, his first comment related to the use of the phrase "iruka-ryo" ("dolphin fishing") in the letter when there was an "officially recognized" term ("oikomi-ryo") for the hunts that take place from September each year. I replied that perhaps rather than splitting hairs over semantics it would be more fruitful to look at the wider intention of the letter and therefore the purpose of my proposed research (to try and offer readers of the JT a more balanced perspective that took in the opinions of residents and officials in Taiji). He replied that it was semantics that had caused misunderstandings about Taiji in the first place.
And in one sense, he is not wrong. Semantics, and individual's interpretations of letters, emails (and as some JT readers will know, comments posted about stories), can lead to misunderstandings, even if they are unintentional and/or not even the key issue at hand.
Yet, the town official and other people I spoke with there are never afraid of using those same semantics when they serve their own purposes. The best known of these is the statement often put forward that the dolphin hunters are doing nothing illegal and that the methods employed are in line with Japan's fisheries laws. Better still is a sentiment (also voiced by prime minister Shinzo Abe) that Japan has a long tradition of dolphin hunting. This is simply not true.
There is also the view that the method employed to kill the dolphins is short and swift and well within the internationally accepted standards for immediacy to prevent suffering (a claim that was disputed by a group of international researchers in 2013).
Activists, such as Yukari Sugisaka of Help Animals argue that if all of this is in fact true, then why do the fishermen insist on hiding the culls from view by stretching tens of meters of tarpaulin over so-called "killer Cove"? (One official told me that the purpose of the tarpaulin was to stop the animals from bashing themselves on the cove's rocks when they writhe around.)
I suspect that the real purpose of this official speak is to deflect attention/avoid answering the difficult/unwanted questions in favour of towing the official line. I am not sure that it is a coincidence that the person who has gained a modicum of cooperation in Taiji recently is a female film director who recently released what could only roughly be termed a "documentary" titled "Behind the Cove" — a riposte to the 2009 Oscar-winning "The Cove," in which O'Barry played a lead role. Few who have seen it would deny that "The Cove" has some problematic points, but Keiko Yagi's supposedly "more balanced" (her words) view in "Behind the Cove" stinks of a sympathetic bias.
Even when I interviewed her (which I did via Skype from Taiji) those biases were clear. Despite admitting that she had never actually witnessed the culls herself, she was happy to echo the Taiji fishermen's line that the culling method used in recent years does not cause any suffering to the dolphins and certainly did not induce the massacre-like bloody mess of years gone by. "There is no blood," she told me, claiming that photographers photoshopped their images to change the colour of the water in "Killer Cove" and that Youtube videos claiming to show the slaughters at Taiji are in fact showing footage from the Faroes (in one case this is/was true).
I received some criticism regarding the JT article for not delving deeper into Yagi's motivations, which one person I interviewed described as being a sad reflection of the "near nationalistic" feelings that the dolphin issue stirs in some Japanese. However, I felt the comments from Yagi that were included in the story were more than sufficient to establish her stance.
I should add that at the point when I interviewed Yagi I had not seen her film (only a short preview), though it was not for want of trying. Yogi had promised to send me a copy of the film to preview, but delayed delivery until just before story deadline she sent me a terse email rescinding her original promise:
"The other day it was my intention to send you a DVD, but after reviewing a number of related articles previously published by your company (sic) we* have concluded it would be inappropriate to send the DVD.")
I hope that this additional information will add a degree of clarity. I will update and complete this post shortly.

While down in Southern California I had the opportunity to capture this little family. We met out in the Chino Hills during the most perfect weather. Grandpa brought the infamous truck...
Lief Family | O'Neill Regional Park Family Session
Oh the silly voices and schenanigans that went on with this sweet family. While I'm not ashamed of it, I am glad that not everyone gets to see the lengths I'll go to in order to get a child to smile. It's straight up ridiculous. Thankfully Ami and Doug helped A TON (and didn't judge!).
Thanks to stuffed elephants, kissy noises and acting like a goober, we got some adorable shots of little CeCe. Not to mention great shots of this special little family. But truly, even when she's not smiling, cares nothing about the camera or the goofing around, she's still just as precious. A huge thank you to Ami and Doug for being flexible with their schedule so we could get together. I cannot wait to see the beautiful human that CeCe turns into because of your amazing parenting. XOXO.
Leavitt Family | Laguna Beach Family Session
Brooke + Richard | Charming Estacada Wedding
As I sat next to Brooke in a tiny coffee shop listening to her and Richard's story, I knew I wanted them to choose us to document their wedding. Brooke has a way of lighting up a room with not only her smile, but the glow that leaks out of her eyes. But when she talks about Richard it goes to an entirely new level.
ADVENTURE | Stuck Under the Milky Way
Cheyanne + Tanner | Colorful Rockabilly Wedding | Part 2
When you first see the way Cheyanne and Tanner interact, there's an interesting dynamic. On the one hand, it kind of seems like it may be a new relationship. "Young Love" or something similar. The googley eyed way they look at each other. An infatuation that is untouched by the reality of day to day life.
Cheyanne + Tanner | Colorful Rockabilly Wedding | Part 1
Ariel + Michael | Rustic Summer Wedding
Anna + Patrick | Fort Worden Wedding
Amid over cast skies and a light drizzle, Adam and I drove up north to the beautiful setting that is Fort Worden in Port Townsend, Washington. We talked about our plan in the event that everything had to be indoors...
Jessica + Kyle | Intimate Las Vegas Wedding
Well it's been awhile since I've blogged a wedding so please forgive me if I gush a little bit. It took me quite a bit to narrow down some favorites, and I even narrowed down those!
When I was first asked if I'd be willing to travel to Las Vegas to shoot a small wedding, it was a resounding yes. Firstly, I love shooting destination weddings. Secondly, I knew the bride had a heart of gold. Case in point, throughout the wedding day her concern was that everyone (including me) was having a great time. Even as she was having her hair and makeup done she would reach out to those nearby to make sure they were comfortable and enjoying themselves. Well I'll tell ya, everyone was having a blast! All the little comments I overheard from her friends and family were all so supportive and full of love.
So here's the thing, this being a destination wedding, I didn't really have the opportunity to connect with both the bride and groom. I hadn't seen them interact. And it's always interesting to see how two people act in front of the camera. Well they killed it. The love they have for each other is so evident I couldn't help but grin the whole time. Jessica looks at her husband like he's the only man in the universe and Kyle looks at her like he can't believe it. Not only that, but to look around at friends and family and see them looking at the couple with tears in their eyes and smiles on their faces was enough to get anyone choked up a bit.
Okay, enough of that! The day started at New York New York, where both the bride and groom got ready. Then it was off to tie the knot. Afterwards they had a relaxed reception at Battista's Hole in the Wall with the people that care the most about them. From there it was back to the hotel for family pictures and just enough day light for some portraits of the two of them. We ended up at The Cosmopolitan for a couple quick shots and then it was time for the two of them to enjoy being husband and wife with their friends and family.
So in conclusion, congratulations Jess and Kyle! I'm so honored to have been able to capture your wedding celebration! Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness and googly eyed mushy romance <3

About the Book
The Experimentation book was created to to explore my curiosity with letterforms and enabled me to discover and analyse the fine details of type. To create this book I had to create type. In doing so, I discovered that there are many right and wrong ways of doing things but there is certainly not only one way to create type.

Saddened but not surprised that top-ranked Pete Sampras has refused to anchor the United States Davis Cup team for its first-round clash against Russia at Stone Mountain Park, Ga., Tom Gullikson confirmed yesterday that Andre Agassi is now the prime focus of his recruiting efforts.
Although Stone Mountain was the site of Agassi's gold-medal victory at the Atlanta Olympics in 1996, Gullikson confirmed that Agassi has not yet agreed to play the April 3-5 event there. The United States expects to find a daunting opponent in Russia's Yevgeny Kafelnikov, a top 10 player in singles and doubles.
''I spoke to Andre yesterday and he's strongly considering playing, but he didn't commit 100 percent,'' said Gullikson, who said he had the impression that Agassi feels the Davis Cup competition, played on hardcourts in early April, might be an impediment to his preparation for the French Open, which is played on red clay in late May.
Now in his fifth year as captain, Gullikson is still bedeviled by the reluctance of American players to sign up for duty. So far, Todd Martin, ranked 70th, is the only veteran who has volunteered for the coming round. ''I'm not going to beg people to play,'' Gullikson said. ROBIN FINNContinue reading the main story

UK PRODUCTION: Nissan builds a third of 2013's 1.5m tally
Although its output - of Juke, Note, Qashqai and Leaf models - dipped 1.7% year on year in 2013, Nissan's Sunderland plant in north east England once again dominated UK car production, building 501,756 of the 1,509,762 cars (up 3.1%) made here. That was the highest volume since 2007, according to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT).

Heyo guys! It's Tecku! So, after the longest time, Lost City part 1 is finally here. And I gotta say..... I'm impressed. This level took a lot of chances, but unlike Big Wave Beach, it knew how to make the ideas work.
Let's start with the concept. While we're not given an exact year or location, Lost City's zombies gives off an excellent 1800's feel. The idea with the sun tiles is also a very good one. Since they allow defenses to be built early, the action comes on hard and quick, creating a very fast-paced battle. In my opinion, this is one the most perfect ways they could have gone. It feels more intense and challenging than Frostbite Caves, but I never found myself raging at any difficulty spikes. The whole sequence is very intense, but (gasp!), it still manages to be fun.
But as I stated in my BWB review, good concepts mean nothing if the zombies and plants are junk. So, how do these sections hold up? Honestly, I'm astounded. It feels like they took what was wrong with the Dark Ages and BWB and said, "Hey, you know what? The fanbase deseverse better. Let's take another crack at these guys." Let's start with the plants:
- Red Stinger is a shooter that can also be used as a defensive plant, akin to Pea-Nut. However, with Red Stinger, I found myself having a much better time. In my Premiums and Gemiums review, I stated that Pea-Nut works best as an anti-ambush plant, and Red Stinger just does it so much better. The health bonus stops the ambushes from doing too much damage, while its powerful versions finish them off. RS's mechanic allows for a vast multitude of strategies, each tempered by split-second descisions. Do I use the leftmost column for Sun-Shrooms, or RS? Each descision makes the game more vast, more intense, and more fun.
- A.K.E.E., in my opinion, is Bowling Bulb done right. The bouncing effect makes it unique from other pult plants, but it doesn't rely on zombies not being in its lane to work. Yes, Laser Bean is still probably better in most situations, but I really like this guy.
- Lava Guava seems to be a very close relative of Ghost Pepper. Fun, enjoyable, and great for both crowd control and tough zombies. His mechanic is very well balanced, and he's a lot of fun to use, especially in the fast-paced action of Lost City.
- Endurian is... really great against Parasol Zombie. I know that's really specific, but I can't really think of anything else to say. Endurain works with almost any strategy, is a better offensive/defensive comba than Pea-Nut, and is just really solid.
Now for the zombies:
- Lost Pilot Zombie may seem like a generic ambusher zombie to most people, but to me, he's more. To me, "Parachute Rain!" is "Low Tide!" done right. There's no way to stop it from coming, but the damage done can be dampened. Red Stinger and Endurain are great at preventing losses. Furthermore, since he can't move right away (and never packs helmets, sufboards, or stinkin' octopi) you don't have to worry about him eating up too much stuff. However, if you make the risky descision to put sun producing plants on middle column gold tiles, he'll gobble them up. Great stuff.
- Excavator Zombie is both Surfboard Zombie and Fisherman Zombie done right. His shovel will mess up your plant array is you let him, but he has set weaknesses. He doesn't have a lot of health and has to reach your plants to do anything, so a lot of plants will tear through him before he messes everything up (unlike Fisherman Zombie). If you have enough sun you can replace the plants shoveled. And if you get him with an instant, he won't leave surfboards or octopi behind.
- Parasol Zombie is Jester Zombie done right. I mean.... yeah. The parasol blocks a certain type of attack (a type you'll almost certainly be using), but it doesn't punish you for using it. What else can I really say here?
- Bug Zombie is.... really intersting. On the one hand, if you have Blover, they're all cinches, perhaps even a wee bit too much so. On the other hand, without Blover, these guys can really pack a punch. They're not too bad, though, as Lava Guava and a good defense will deal with them for the most part.
However, I much I enjoy the plants and zombies, what really stole the show for me was the level design. These levels are fantastic. Each one feels different, and handles great. How about that Locked and Loaded meets "don't let the zombies trample the flowers" level? Or the one with the whole slew of gold tiles with a sun production goal? The gold tiles leave a lot of room for unique levels, and the developers took advantage of all of them. What's interesting, though, is how many risks were done in the level design. For the most part, new plants are immediately followed by zombies that counter them, instead of zombies they counter. For example, right after you get A.K.E.E., Parasol Zombie shows up. That's a big risk for the game to take, and is reminiscent of King Zombie vs. Manget Shroom. But since the game gives you a variety of options and keeps the levels fun, I... didn't really mind.
So is there anything I didn't like? Well, besides Bug Zombie being unmemorable, I am just a bit disappointed about the lack of both a Last Stand level and a Brain Buster level. However, as I said, the levels are so much fun, you won't care. I didn't even realize they were missing until I started writing this. Oh, and Sun Shrooms are almost mandatory for these levels.
All in all, Lost City Part 1 is another great series of levels from Popcap. It's really nice to see them make challenging fun, and I hope Lost City Part 2 is just as good!
-P.S. The ultimate battle theme for this world is the best one yet. It's got a lot of varying instruments, and really boosts the intense feel of the levels.

text: What do you guys think will happen later in one piece. I mean any ideas are good. Like will Zoro get better swords or what types of islands or enemies wil lthey find or what will be everyones final bounties stuff like that. What therories do you have about one piece im just interested in what people have to say. Like some of my opinions/ideas is that the final battle will be between strawhats pirates and bb pirates but thats obvious i think but i also think the bb pirates would have defeated the red hair pirates. But after the sh pirates beat the bb pirates they will have a friendly battle with the red hair pirates so luffy can prove he is finally a better pirate than shanks. Also another one is that luffy will defeat most if not all the yonko and after he does some one will need o fill their spots i think that when these yonko are defeated the ones most likley to fill there positions will be pirates like law, drake, kidd, croodile, and marco also maybe hawkins but not so sure on him. In my opinion kidd or law will replace big mom drake will replace kaido crocodile would take shanks place if he ever died and marco would replace black beard. well thats just some of mine what are all your opinion/theories on what will happen?

Back in the NPOTA days - seems so long ago, doesn't it - there were times (particularly on SSB) that I was wishing for a bit more power from my KX2. Its 10 watts are fine when conditions are good and when the QRM/QRN levels accomodate that power level, but the other 99% of the time would have been more enjoyable without all the repeats those 10 watts were often requiring.
My new kit arrived from China only 8 days after ordering. A tracking number was sent to me within an hour of the order.
Only the circuit board and parts are included - no documentation whatsoever and none to download either. I knew this before ordering and chalk it up to the low price. It should be easy enough to build directly from the photos on the eBay order page but I will have to do a bit of research regarding the number of turns on the inductors.
Spectrum analysis images show it to be a very clean amp but that is more a function of the low pass filters in use - none of those are included in the kit. I plan to use filters from another project and will then test the combo on a spectrum analyzer and post the pics at a later date.
A few surface mounts components are used in the kit and, although I don't really enjoy working with them, they are so few in number that I'm almost sure I'll be able to cope without resorting to too much colorful language employed during the build.
With any luck I'll start the build this Saturday.

Dear Melbourne Night Life Enthusiasts,
It's that time of the week again, yep it's Friday Night!
"Dim lighting, classy. Waiters flitting around in their black suits taking drinks orders at tables. Think long to very long bar on one side, sandstone, lit up in blue.
Dark cushioned seating in cosy alcove style down the middle of the room, dividers of the black iron lattice type.
Now picture curtains around most of the Long Room's walls. Look really closely and you notice the holes. All around are hidden alcoves (for about 15 people each) with more great couches and cushions. There's even a second, smaller bar in one area.
Eye catching and interesting objects make up the rest of the room - strange statues, moose antlers, bubble lamps, you name it.
The location's just right, too, being part of the Georges complex. The Long Room is an upmarket bar that will suit many just nicely"
We have a reserved area for the evening. Happy Hour from 4pm to 9pm:
$5 Basic Spirits
$5 Beer of the week
$5 House Wine
$10 Cocktails

Okay, I am 47 yr old married, professional white male. I've been married for about 20 years - but I have always been 'curious' about other guys and what it would be like. My wife is out of town for at least a month to go help take care of some very ill relatives. That leaves me at home alone.. and I decide to take a few days off from work for some 'me' time - do what I want to do, watch what I want to watch and go where I want to go - this opportunity does not happen very often.
It's early Monday morning around 7:30 - I get up and turn on my computer just to check a few emails then I was out of the house for the rest of the day. My computer would not connect to the internet - so I turned on my tv - guess what cable was completely out. I called the cable company and they said they would send a repairmen out shortly. I went about my business - feeding the dog, eating breakfast etc... then the doorbell rang. When I opened the door - I could not help myself I starred at this most good looking guy I have ever seen - blue eyes, dark hair and a 5 o'clock shadow beard. He appears to be in his early 30's - he does have on a wedding ring - (as do I). Our eyes meet and we both look at each other a little longer than what is normal. I showed him where the computer and tv were located. We did small talk and I found out that his name was Cody. I told him that I needed to go take a shower and if he needed anything - I would leave the door ajar to the bathroom - just come give me a yell.
I get in the shower thinking about this good looking guy that was in the family room and immediately my 7 inch cut man tool sprang to life! While I was lost in the 'bliss' suddenly I hear him in the bathroom. He said - 'Mr. Smith, I am sorry to intrude, but I have tried to talk to you in the other room and you can't hear me with the shower going. I have found out what is going on with your cable - but I am going to have to go back to the shop and get the needed materials.' I turned the water off and grabbed a towel - meanwhile, our eyes meet again and I catch him looking at my raised appendage - in turn he had a bulge that was growing in his tan shorts - he caught me looking... we keep looking at each other - my clothes are on the other side of the room where he is standing - he keeps looking.. I reach around him to get my clothes and I brush up against him ever so lightly - our eyes meet yet again - and he said - I've never done anything like this before, but man you have got me so horney that I am about to explode. I said 'same here'. He makes a move closer to kiss me and I move closer to him. Man could this guy kiss.... I've never experienced anything like it ever before in my life. My towel drops to the floor and he grabs ahold of my dick... In turn, I start ripping his clothes off. We ended up in bed and did a 69 - then I told him I wanted him to fuck me. He said- 'gladly'. He had 8 inches to play with! I laid on my back - he moistened his fingers and begand to finger me - he loved the smell and then buried his face in my ass and began to eat me out - man, I thought I was going to explode. He slowly mounted me and began very gentle - then the moment came when I realized that he was all the way in... he just sit there for a few minutes then began to pump me slowly then he upped the pace and began to wear me out. I was not even touching my dick and I began to shoot load after load - it went past my head and hit the wall... and then he got to the point of no return and filled me with his sweet cum. WOW!!
Needless to say - he made several stops by my house over the next month!

I absolutely LOVE Dr. Pedre!! He is caring, knowledgeable and accurate. His office staff is friendly and courteous. I rarely wait longer than 15 minutes and when I need an appointment for an acute condition, he sees me immediately. I started with Dr. Pedre when he was on Park Avenue and though the new office is more than a mile away, I had no problem transferring with him. Dr. Pedre is so calm and comforting, and the office decor adds to his demeanor. I have referred many co-workers to his office and they have been as pleased as I have been.

the best general practitioner I've had in many years
Dr. Pedre is pretty young (as far as doctors go), but he is also extremely intelligent and has enough years of experience under his belt to ease any fears of his being *too* young. Since I was getting a doctor for the long haul, having one that wasn't going to retire in a few years was important to me.The office is clean, nice, and kinda has a suburban-zen-like vibe. The staff has always been very nice and helpful. Waits have never been very bad. In and out is usually less than an hour all-told.The nurses and Dr. Pedre all carry computers, which they use throughout the process of an appointment. I think this helps them keep everything organized and with relatively little paper, and as everything has always felt very fast and efficient, I credit this in part to technology they employ.During an appointment, he listens to everything you tell him, asks thoughtful questions, then evaluates the situation. I like that he is very keen on the idea of holistic care. He doesn't just reach right for a Rx pad for every single thing you throw at him. Often the solution is a prescription of course, but he may just suggest modifying your diet, habits, or even getting acupuncture or some other alternative-type solution. I'm not one for the unproven quackery of much of the alternative medicine scene, but with Dr. Pedre I trust him to distinguish between nonsense and something that, while less orthodox, has been effective for many of his patients in the past. And he's always clear in laying out the pros and cons of any sort of care, so it's always up to you to decide what you want to do.I've been seeing him for a couple of years now, and am very satisfied. I look forward to sticking with Dr. Pedre for decades to come.

High UK energy costs have been forcing Meadowhall-based Chesterfield Special Cylinders to send its hi-tech cylinders to Italy for heat treatment, says chairman John Hayward.

Bushcraft Medic has a point; we SHOULD be a little less intolerant. But merely accepting every shitty pasta that comes along, despite his protestations, WOULD be horrible. This wiki is about QUALITY content, and removing the no-spinoffs rule entirely would open the floodgates of crap, drowning us in subpar Slenderman and Jeff The Killer knockoffs.
So, I've come up with a compromise, which comes in two parts:
- Instead of being blocked for posting on the forbidden subjects for the first time, the author will receive a warning and the story will be removed. The 1-day block will only apply if the author re-uploads it (re-uploading pages is an offense.)
- Spinoff Appeal. If Cleric approves of the idea, it'll be a system similar to Deletion Appeal in which the author posts a link to their OC spinoff/prequel/sequel which they posted offsite and get it reviewed by admins to see if it's good enough to be added to the wiki.
So, what do you think?
EDIT: it's ready!

Spartak snap up Stranzl
By Lewis Rutledge
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Spartak Moscow have completed the signing of Martin Stranzl from Stuttgart.
Spartak Moscow have completed the signing of Martin Stranzl from Stuttgart.
The Austrian defender has agreed a four-year contract with Spartak, the Russian side confirmed, although no transfer details were disclosed. The media has speculated that the fee could be around é¼3 million (£2.1 million).
The 25-year-old is the second major signing for the club in the Russian off-season, following the capture of Quincy Owusu-Abeyie from Arsenal in January.
"Spartak have an extremely strong team and have built a great environment," Stranzl told the Austrian press.
The Russian league season kicks off on Friday, and Spartak will be hoping to go one better than their second place finish last year.

Back in the day, dad mowed the grass on Saturday afternoons, mum ironed in front of the telly and the kids got pocket money for washing the dog.
Fast forward to 2014, and it's a very different picture for many Aussie households. Hectic work schedules and higher disposable incomes have resulted in more of us shelling out sizeable sums to get chores done in and around the home.
Brisbane IT executive and former law partner Maree Adshead, 41, and her husband Mats Dahlstedt, a telecoms engineer, plead guilty to their fair share of domestic outsourcing. Dahlstedt travels interstate for work every fortnight while Adshead juggles her role as general manager of an IT consultancy with a high-profile gig chairing the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Queensland's Technology Council.
For the past two years, they've employed a series of Swedish au pairs whose duties include the after-school runaround with children Sophia, 10, and Mattias, 11.
The couple do their own laundry, cooking and light cleaning but pay $50 a week for a cleaner to do the rough - a snip compared with southern rates, Adshead believes - and $200 every three months for window washing.
Bathing and grooming of the family pet, a Maltese cross dog, costs $55 every six to eight weeks.
In the past, gardening bills came in at $50 to $80 a fortnight but the family is spared that expense in their current home, which has a low maintenance, paved yard.
Adshead says she's more reliant on external assistance than many of her friends but believes it's about priorities - devoting her scant free time to her children, not spending it bleaching toilets and pruning hedges.
"I've always been a big outsourcer, ever since I moved out of home at 21," she says. "If it's affordable, then do it … I've always been a believer, if you've got limited time at home, you want to relax and make it special."
Australians' collective spend on home services is rising - from $2.5 billion in 2009-10 to a predicted $3.1 billion in this financial year, according to Ibisworld. Gardening is expected to account for $1.3 billion of the latest bill and cleaning and housekeeping $820 million.
Households with incomes in the top 20 per cent account for almost half the cleaning spend, but only 24 per cent of garden services, which likely reflects many well-heeled folks' preference for luxury apartments, or large houses on small blocks - not the existence of a cohort of cashed-up green thumbs, Ibisworld industry analyst Alen Allday believes. ''The data for housekeeping and cleaning services appears more intuitive. The highest income households spend a lot more," he says.
Those who are time-poor view the help as more necessity than luxury, he adds.
Emma Isaacs, the founder of the women's networking group Business Chicks, agrees. She says home services prevent a descent into chaos for those attempting to juggle business and babies.
"I work full time in my business, which is rapidly growing, and travel each week, plus I have three children aged four and under," Isaacs says.
"Around our place we have cleaners, a gardener, a pool guy and our nanny - we couldn't live without them all.
"I don't understand why people wouldn't outsource as much as they could - there's no benefit in being a martyr. Even if it means losing out financially, what you gain - time with family - is worth much more."
Conversely, bringing the chores back in-house is a relatively painless way to trim the family budget, for those with hours and elbow grease to spare. Sydney mother Karyn Watson, 32, has already recouped the $99 she dropped on an electric lawn mower earlier this year, after concluding she'd prefer to pocket the $40 she'd previously paid to a gardener every three weeks.
A navy wife whose husband Adam spends long stretches at sea, she is becoming increasingly competent with the garden tools in his absence.
"I've mowed two or three times now - it's fun and interesting," she says. "It's a learning curve. I'm getting there."
A sense of satisfaction comes with the savings, she adds: "I was very proud of myself when I started and I'll keep on going."
Price of labour
What does it cost to get the house cleaned and grass cut? Depends on your address and how much elbow grease is required, says Andrew Kelly, marketing manager at franchised home services chain Jim's Group. An average lawn costs $45 in Victoria and $50 in NSW. For Queenslanders, it's $45 on the Gold Coast and $60 in Brisbane.
Cleaning prices vary widely, depending on the task list. Most franchisees quote up for the nasty jobs, Kelly says. ''[Cleaning] an oven is more labour intensive than vacuuming.'' And expect to pay more in good neighbourhoods: ''Socio-economic environments also have an impact, with some franchisees enjoying a higher hourly rate than others.''
Odd jobs online
Lawn mowing, cleaning and unusual errands are shaping up to be a nice little earner for Tim Fung, 30, whose online odd jobs bureau, Airtasker, turned two in March. Fung says the idea for the venture came to him during a frustrating session with the Allen key, moving apartments in2011.
To date, the site has handled $2 million worth of tasks, ranging from cleaning and handyman gigs, to queuing outside the Apple store for the latest iPhone and flying to the United States to collect an engagement ring.
Jobs are free to post and successful applicants, known as runners, pay a 15 per cent cut to Airtasker. The average assignment pays $80 to $100 and yields around $25 an hour. The site has 100,000 registered runners.
Typical users are time-poor professional men, Fung says.

text: Culture 5 June 2008 Anxious objects Sue Hubbard ponders the perennial question of how to decide boundaries of art Sign up for our weekly email * The big question in art is: "Is it art?" Is an outsized Brillo box or a pickled shark art? Ever since 1917, when Marcel Duchamp's porcelain urinal, scrawled with the pseudonym "R Mutt", was submitted to the Society for Independent Artists in New York (and rejected) for exhibition as Fountain, the cognoscenti have considered such objects as art. The critic Harold Rosenberg called such works "anxious objects". What artists made mattered less than what they thought. They now approach the condition of philosophers (I think, rather than paint, sculpt or draw: therefore, I am). Artists see it as their job to refute what has gone before - especially as it is now impossible to say "avant-garde" before new examples become absorbed into the voracious maw of the mainstream and lose their power to shock. In 1994 the racing fan and Turner Prize nominee Mark Wallinger bought and named a racehorse A Real Work of Art, with a view to entering it in races and causing his "art" to be piped into bookies up and down the country. This may not be the accepted "Royal Academy Summer Exhibition" view of art, but that it challenged perceptions was a large part of the point. Recently, millions signed a petition calling for the Costa Rican artist Guillermo "Habacuc" Vargas not to be included in this year's Bienal Centroamericana Honduras 2008. The reason? Well, Habacuc, as he likes to be known, also used an animal in his artwork Eres lo que lees ("You are what you read"), but this time it raised complex moral issues. The artist paid street children to catch a stray dog that was then named Natividad ("nativity"), chained up in the Códice Gallery in Nicaragua and, reputedly, left to starve to death. Even if the dog did escape, as gallery and artist contend, there was nothing to indicate that this would be the case to the viewers, for the dog appeared ill, thin and dehydrated. But the point - if point there can be to pointless suffering - was that although a few visitors to the gallery requested that the dog be fed, they were banned from doing so, and no one actually intervened to release the suffering animal. Animal rights campaigners went ballistic; and who, in their right mind, would want to see an animal suffer? The event smacked of bread and circuses and the decadence of throwing Christians to the lions as entertainment. It is also not hard to think of the Stanford Prison Experiment, in which psychologists designated students as either guards or prisoners, only to have to stop the exercise when the guards started living out their role with too much enthusiasm. In the case of poor Natividad, did people not intervene because he had the authority and status of art? And what did the event say about that same audience, which every day passed by not only starving dogs but also children in the streets? Cowardly, self-serving, distasteful and immoral it may have been, but if it is the business of art to ask questions, this certainly raised a few. Subscribe from just £1 per issue More

Istanbul Underground Cistern Excursion Reviews
Interesting from a historical point of view. Not much to actually see. Size is amazing.
The Cisterns were interesting, but again, not a place I would return to. It is always interesting to see how those of the past lived.
We actually did this on our own. We were able able take the public rail to see the Blue Mosque first, then the Hagia Sofia, then Underground Cistern, the Grand Bazaar, and Spice Market without taking any formal tour. We walked our way back to the ship from the Blue Mosque and again saw all the sights we wanted without taking a ship tour with significant savings.

Question: Weinstein McDermott and Roediger 2010 report that students who were
Weinstein, McDermott, and Roediger (2010) report that students who were given questions to be answered while studying new material had better scores when tested on the material compared to students who were simply given an opportunity to reread the material. In a similar study, an instructor in a large psychology class gave one group of students questions to be answered while studying for the final exam. The overall average for the exam was µ = 73.4, but the n = 16 students who answered questions had a mean of µ = 78.3 with a standard deviation of σ = 8.4. For this study, did answering questions while studying produce significantly higher exam scores? Use a one-tailed test with a = .01.
