Dave Mock bought his L88 Corvette new back in 1969 and drove it on the street for a couple of years. "If you've ever owned or driven a Corvette, you're familiar with their psychological impact," starts the Car Craft magazine story about Mock's Vette. "You have an urge to 'play' a little on the street."
Mock had the urge, all right. On the very first weekend he owned the car, he took it to a slalom race at Fremont Raceway, near his Oakland, California, home. From there he moved up to autocross, and then took the big leap into SCCA A/Production road racing.
When Car Craft wrote about Mock's race car in the January 1975 issue, he had never finished lower than Second place in three years of West Coast SCCA racing. He also held the A/Production track record at Laguna Seca at 1:52.85.
Mock got all that speed from the Vette's born-with L88, which was fitted with a stock Chevy ZL1 camshaft, ported heads, and Venolia pistons on stock rods. A Holley 850-cfm carburetor flowed air and fuel through a Chevy high-rise aluminum manifold. The 427 was joined to its Muncie M22 Rockcrusher through a Schiefer clutch and aluminum flywheel, and there were 4.11 gears in the rearend.
The Corvette's fiberglass body was augmented by factory road-race wheelwells, an aluminum dashboard, and an alloy firewall behind the driver seat. Mock also made use of Chevy racing suspension parts, an adjustable front sway bar, and Moog adjustable ball joints. The gummy Goodyears were mounted on 15x9.5-inch Minilite wheels.
"Mock estimated the car's total cost at $25,000," said the article. "Its best timed top speed has been 180 mph, and the car turned mid-12 e.t.'s in street trim three or four years ago." After CC's Don Green shot these photos, the Mocko Vette was about to take its "play" to the next level, as Mock was entering the car in the SCCA's new Professional Trans-Am Series. From what we can gather looking at '70s race results, Mock continued to terrorize West Coast tracks, logging a number of top-10 finishes.

Hey Splashers it's been awhile but I've been busy with my Facebook page & radio show: Hardcore Wrestling Radio. This past week I had the honor of interviewing an ECW Original: Jason Knight! Jason has worked with the likes of Mikey Whipwreck, The Sandman, Mick Foley, The Undertaker, and more! If you want to listen to that exclusive interview head on over to www.facebook.com/hardcorewrestlingradio
Welcome back Splashers! Sorry I have been away with busy things, but I couldn't miss the Road to WrestleMania. I've been reading a lot of blogs regarding The Rumble, Elimination Chamber, WrestleMania, and how it's all going to play out. Needless to say I have to put in my 2 & ½ cents, so without any further a due let's get to it.
In this blog my only 2 main concerns is
Welcome Back Splashers! I've been busy for the past week putting up Hardcore Wrestling Radio's new Facebook page. There you can listen to previous shows, find out what we are going to talk about in up and coming shows, and much more! alright enough of the plugging and on with the splashing!
Final resolution opens up with Cowboy James Storm walking to the ring. He Stated that he was not
Welcome back Splashers! I was having a discussion with a couple of friends of mine, and the topic of Tag-Teams came up. Some of us mentioned how the WWE Tag-Team Division has really improved over the past couple of months. Then there were a few others who thought that some of these "throw-together" teams like Hell-No and Rhode Scholars, will not last more than a few months.
What's up Splashers! I've noticed a couple of people have been writing about RAW, and how they feel about the 3 hour lineup that started on the 1000th episode. To be honest with you I'm still not sold the idea myself. I've been watching RAW each week, and I'm trying to find out what exactly does

'"A lot of it is obviously confidence," he said in First Niagara Center. "I'm just trying to focus on playing the game hard, get pucks deep and keep grinding it out. I'm sure [confidence is down], especially when you're not winning. Like I said, you try and just work hard, get to the net, get rebounds and tips, and try to find your game again."'

No, actually the opposit. Because one does not remember, illusion comes into being again and again.
Also we can see that when our mind established in the present moment, he dont know nothning, he is pure of memory, experiance, he is no more conditioned by past experiance and future wishes based on pasts experiance.

Hanzze wrote:Dear whynotme,
its not really helpful to squash Buddhas way into a construct out of "science, psychology, different traditions". Its much better to give away one and addopt the new.
There was an occation where a follower of another sect wanted to join the Sangha. Buddha refused and told him to get free of his old ideas first. Its better to empty the way of thoughts from trash and incomplete things first and only after that take the new perceptions which are required to walk the way. Riding on two vehicles at the same time might be hurtful and risky.
You need always support
To give away the old intelectual possession is sometimes the most difficult "letting go".

Experts and Staff, Energy Central
Nightmare on Main Street
PERHAPS THE MOST IMPORTANT energy story of the summer deserves revisiting.
India suffered through massive blackouts that spilled across regions with a combined population about twice that of the United States.
The televised images of that outage were easily compartmentalized and dismissed. Here was a far-off undeveloped country.
It can't happen here.
Thinking about the Indian power calamity, I recalled admonitions from grid and cyber security experts in the United States that it is only a matter of time before terrorists, criminals or a hostile state disrupts the power grid in this country.
World War III, should it come, or the next 9/11, is likely to be a massive digital invasion that will be unprecedented in its ability to disrupt the normal lives of tens of millions of Americans far removed from any physical battlefield.
Picture a twin assault on our power grid that would be both physical and cyber.
Transmission experts have told me that small explosions that bring down remote, unprotected pylons could cause cascading mayhem on the power grid affecting distant cities and regions.
Couple that with a coordinated cyber attack on the power supply system, and America's strategic and economic strength in the world fade to darkness.
The consequences can barely be fathomed. What if we had to spend days, or weeks, without email, cell phone service, electronic banking, heat in the winter or air conditioning in the summer, clean water, transportation - and light?
Much is being done by utilities and government to try to put in place protections that would ward off cyber attacks. New smart grid technologies are providing powerful tools to monitor and quickly repair the transmission and distribution system, sometimes seamlessly with little or no human intervention.
But a serious question needs to be asked. Perhaps, given the magnitude of the risks we are exposed to, we need to dramatically alter the way we produce and transport the electricity we need to run American society. What would be the equivalent of a bomb shelter for this looming, existential threat?
Perhaps we should view distributed generation and energy storage in a new light. Perhaps we need to marshal our resources to speed development and deployment of these technologies as a matter of national security.
If our homes, factories, office buildings, government facilities, water treatment facilities, hospitals and cell towers all had the ability to generate their own electricity - or call on stored supplies of power - we would be vastly more secure than we are today. It is doable.
This summer I spent an afternoon visiting the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colo. The main building on the campus is a net zero energy consumer. It produces what energy it needs - and is designed to use very little. Dan Arvizu, the lab director, told me he discussed the energy profile of that building with the head of Xcel Energy, which is in the business of selling electricity. That executive readily conceded to Arvizu that net zero energy building has to be the way of the future.
Although it may take time to realize, utilities ultimately may have no choice but to evolve their business models.
Despite Al Gore's best efforts, the threat of climate change has not ignited a "moon shot-like" effort to transform our energy grid to meet the needs of a new era.
Perhaps we need to start seeing solar panels and small-scale wind turbines on our roofs, along with New Age skylights that drastically reduce lighting needs, as our bomb shelters of the future.

Topic: Chemo beginning
I will begin chemotherapy on thursday. I will be getting Cisplatin/Gemzar.
My SIRT radiation did not show any shrinkage of my CC. I was also denied a referral to get a consultation with Mayo Clinic from my healthcare insurance. I was able to go on vacation before starting the chemo & had a wonderful 10 days feeling good the entire time. I still have not had any symptoms except for bad taste in my mouth. My anxiety is causing me more symptoms!! Now I just hope & pray the chemo will help shrink this dang alien in my liver!!
Todays scripture from Isaiah 54:10
Though the mountains be shaken & the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed, says the LORD, who has compassion on you.

Post Op Hospital Stay Following Double Amputa
what time period can be expected for post op hospital care
The post operative recovery can vary greatly from patient to patient depending on the patient's physical and medical status prior to surgery and the level of the amputation. The ultimate goal is to get the patient functioning at the highest level possible post op. The healthier the patient and the lower the amputation level, the quicker that patient will recover to a baseline status. Most patients with bilateral amputations are sicker and usually older and recover very slowly. They will usually be in the hospital 5 to 6 days and will then need to go to a rehab facility for days to weeks. The important thing is to be realistic about the rehab potential and the ultimate goals. Bilateral amputees, unless they are young, do not become walkers. They can transfer and get around some at home but usually require a wheelchair for "out of home" travel.

I spotted this Pumpkin Brownie ($3) at Fat Witch Bakery inside Chelsea Market one afternoon. Unlike most their brownies, this seasonal creation features only a sliver of the bakery's signature buttery chocolate brownie under a thick layer of pumpkin cake. The sweet and soft cake is cinnamony and moist, gently spiced. It's more akin to a pumpkin cake with only a whisper of chocolate, than it is to our general understanding of a brownie. Regardless, it's certainly a sweet that's easy to love. Take note, 5:00-7:00pm on weekdays are "witching hours"—half off all unwrapped brownies!

The Rose Bowl is something a new Boiler coach will shoot for. Danny Hope's shot is over.
Burke announced Sunday evening that Hope is out after a four-year record of 22-27, 13-19 in the Big Ten and 15-13 at Ross-Ade Stadium. Saturday's 56-35 Oaken Bucket win over rival Indiana wasn't enough to save his job. Neither was a three-game winning streak that made Purdue bowl eligible with a 6-6 record.
"We wanted to move up a rung on the ladder, win more games and be more consistent," Burke said during Sunday's press conference. "It didn't happen."
Money also was a factor in Hope's dismissal. Attendance had plunged to 37,000 this season from 54,000 in 2007. Burke noticed.
"We've lost a third of our fan base," he said.
And then: "If you lose $3 million a year in revenue opportunities, it's a big deal."
And then: "We haven't excited the fan base. I felt like a change in leadership was the right thing to do."
Burke said Purdue is "an offensive-minded program and I don't see that changing." He said that the Boilers tradition of quarterback excellence would be a factor in hiring the new coach. He also said he won't look for a dramatically different style of play, such as Michigan experienced when it hired spread offense guru Rich Rodriguez.
"We built this team to play a certain kind of football," Burke said, "and we've seen other institutions who have made a coaching change, change their style of play, and it took two or three years to adjust. We're not going to do that. We've got talent in this program."
Hope added he wouldn't hire a consulting firm, but would get help from Indianapolis Colts general manager Ryan Grigson, Houston Texans' general manager Rick Smith and former Colts president Bill Polian.
Burke said there wasn't a timetable to name a new coach. He said "head coaching experience was a plus, but not a must." He added that having a Purdue connection would be a positive, but not a necessity. He said the university is prepared to pay competitive salaries for the new coach and for assistant coaches. Indications are that could range from $4 to $5 million annually.
Potential replacements include Ball State's Pete Lembo, Cincinnati's Butch Jones, Louisiana Tech's Sonny Dykes, Northern Illinois' Dave Doeren, Kent State's Darrell Hazell and Illinois State's Brock Spack.
Spack was the former Boilers' defensive coordinator who was passed over for Hope when Joe Tiller retired. Illinois State is 8-2 and ranked No. 15 in FCS this season.
The Boilers also could go with a NFL coach, perhaps an offensive coordinator as Penn State did with former New England Patriots offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien.
Receivers coach Patrick Higgins will serve as interim head coach for the upcoming bowl game. Burke said Purdue should know about its bowl bid by next week. The likely bowls are Dec.28 in Houston or Jan. 1 in Dallas.
Hope, whose contract was good through the 2016 season, will receive a $600,000 buyout. He made a Big Ten-low $950,000 this season. Hope said that salary was competitive for entry level work in the Big Ten.
"Under Coach Hope's leadership we did make significant progress as a program," Burke said. "We're seeing the fruits of that. Danny Hope is a good man who did good work. The winning streak is a credit to Coach Hope and his staff."
Higgins will continue to handle offensive coordinator duties because of offensive coordinator Gary Nord's severe back injury as well as recruiting and head coach responsibilities. Nord will be an adviser to Higgins.
"We want the next month to be a life lesson for players to handle adversity," Higgins said.
"Kids are resilient. They love Danny, but they're committed to doing the best job they can over the next month."
Burke said he sent a letter to the 12 committed Purdue recruits in an effort to keep them. They are led by four-star quarterback Danny Etling of Terre Haute. Nothing is official until February's signing period.

Matheny challenges players to pick up pace
Monday's lopsided affair vs. Tigers makes two straight blowout losses
JUPITER, Fla. -- The Cardinals, off to a 2-6-2 record in Grapefruit League play, had their manager none too happy on Monday afternoon following a 17-5 loss to the Tigers.
A second straight blowout loss saw the Cards outscored, 28-6, over the past two days.
"That's ugly no matter wherever it is," skipper Mike Matheny said. "The backyard with your kid, you don't like to have games like that. I'd like to say you get them out of your system, but there's nothing saying that they're gone after you have a couple of them. To have two of them in a row like that is not acceptable, and these guys know that."
The Cardinals faced top-tier pitchers -- Stephen Strasburg of the Nationals on Sunday, Max Scherzer on Monday -- in both games, but that doesn't serve as an excuse for allowing 28 runs on 37 hits and 12 walks in 17 innings. On Monday, 10 of those hits went for extra bases. The Tigers hit three balls out of Roger Dean Stadium.
"Today, we got bombed with balls hit hard all over the place," Matheny said. "Shelby [Miller] was really about one pitch away from having a pretty good day in a situation where we weren't even going to give that guy [Miguel Cabrera] anything to hit right there. Next thing you know, it's two runs later."
Matheny tried to point out a few positives from the loss -- Stephen Piscotty's three-run homer, a 2-for-2 day for Peter Bourjos, drawn out at-bats by Matt Carpenter and strong defensive play from Jon Jay. But he also issued a challenge for better.
"Even though we're in Spring Training, we're still talking about an urgency, we're still talking about a level of expectation of how we want to play the game," Matheny said. "There are positives through individuals, but when you have such an ugly beating, it's hard to focus on them very long."

Panther Computers now offers the Panther Pounce Tuneup. In response to customer requests, we are now offering this alternative to the full Panther Tuneup (regularly $150) with this faster turn around time to quickly get you back up an running. This is a quick hit tuneup that simply removes the most obvious virus and malware infections for $75 that allows you to continue using your existing protections and antivirus software.
I'm here today to make you aware of a scam that I believe is happening with nearly all international call centers, but especially those in India. Based on dozens of conversations with my customers over the last three years, it is my belief that call center employees that answer calls for US based businesses like AT&T, Amazon, and other high profile companies are transferring calls out of the legitimate call center to illegitimate businesses that try to scam money from you.
Panther Computers now sells items on Amazon. We have over one hundred items available locally at our Milton location or you can order online and have it shipped. Eventually we will have all of our new inventory online at Amazon so you can see what we have in stock. Used items and parts will not be listed, so come by or call if you need these or special order items.
CoinBase is a virtual currency exchange for BitCoin that has become licensed in the US to exchange BitCoin for Dollars. Here is an article from PCWorld with the details:
Do to the increased number of ransomeware viruses being seen on computers being brought into Panther Computers, we are adding a new utility called Crypto Prevent to the software installed on computers during our Panther Tuneup. You can read the article below on CryptoWall for more details on ransomeware viruses and their effects. We will install the free edition, free to homeowners and businesses alike, but you may consider the paid premium version for automatic updates.
Over the last several years there have been several ransomeware viruses that will encrypt your data in a fashion that will cause you to loose the data or have to pay to get your files back. CryptoLocker, CryptoDefense, CTB Locker, and now CryptoWall. It is now more important than ever to ensure you have backups of all your important personal and business files as you could be infected from any number of sources.
Panther Computers has invested in an enhanced system to provide better tracking and histories of our clients, their computers, and the work performed. We now have the ability to provide you email and SMS (aka texting) updates as we begin and proceed with the work on your computer. You can also click on the Status link under services to log into your tickets online for a current status. We are continually looking for ways to improve the service we provide our clients.
Panther Computers now offers our remote access service, Panther Rescue Remote, to our customers. Panther Rescue Remote can allow a Panther Computers technician provide you local support from our offices saving you travel time and expense. All you need is a working high speed internet access for the computer and we can provide instruction, configuration, and technical support.
The support is by appointment and first come first serve, but we will expand availabilty and offerings as demand increases. Stay tuned for pricing and other details as we fully deploy Panther Rescue Remote. Whether in the store or by remote we'll make your computer PuRR like a kitten.
We are bumping this article back to the top as there has been a recent increase of these calls in the NW Florida area. We have one computer in the shop now that has been completely locked and is in danger of having had tax documents tampered with or "stolen. We've had a second customer relate that they have had no less than five phone calls trying to coerce them into letting the Indian sounding caller take control of their computer. Watch videos and more on our Facebook page on this an other computer scams.
You may have noticed one or more commercials on TV that claims that they can remotely connect to your computer and make it "work", however be sure they don't charge you if they can't. Most problems today are spyware and virus related and there is absolutely no way this can be cleaned remotely, even if your Internet is working. If your system is just bogged down from normal use, be sure you pay no more than you could at a local shop for a service that is hyped late night alongside the vacuum cleaners, kitchen gizmos, and colon cleansers.

Sandy Allen shot the low gross score over the two-day Tuscan Ridge GC Women's Golf Club Championship Tournament to retain her title. Allen posted a two-day score of 187, just slightly over the score of 184 she shot last year to take the championship away from the 2010 titleholder, Ann Gullick.
The club championship tournament and the annual turkey shoot venue were combined into one tournament this year because of weather and the annual aerating of the golf course.
In the championship division, the net winners in the first flight were, 1, Joyce O'Connell (151); 2, Pat Teel (152); 3, Phyllis Kotyluk (162); Second flight, 1, Joan Bolles (150); 2, Norma Payne (157); 3, Betty LeRoy (160); Third flight, 1, Linda Mowell (142); 2, Aileen Moller (148); 3, Sue Blizman (164). Sherry Cole took the closest to the pin award. In the turkey shoot portion of the tournament the winners in each of the four flights, and I presume taking home a turkey, were Allen (69), LeRoy (70), Cole (65) and Moller (70).
It was pro-points time for the Paradise Pines GC Women's Golf Club last week. Joy Chin topped the field for first place. Sandy Allen and Shelby Bell tied for the second spot. Sherry Cole finished third. Carrol Grimes and Doris Hopper tied for fourth place.
Sherri McGhee shot a great round of 85, her best career round, to take low gross over the field in the Table Mountain GC Women's Golf Club weekly venue. Elaine Thomas won the net category with a 68. First flight, 1, Pam Weichert (74); 2 (via card-off), Janett Ott (74); 3, Sue Snow (79); Second flight, 1, Kris McGee (69); 2, Linda Lindberg (70); 3, Janet Mares (71); Third flight, 1, Sybil Janke (70); 2, Jane Sherwood (71); Jody Thompson (73).
Irma Jenkins obviously has her game honed these days. She followed up her first place in the Butte Creek CC Women's Golf Club tournament the previous week to win the first flight of the club's turkey shoot contest this week with a net score of 70. Karla Dreiss and Sherian Hornbeak tied for second place at 71. Second flight, 1, Joye Smith (63); 2, Joan Bequette (64); 3, Jeannie Stone (68); Third flight, 1, Sandy Fortino (69); 2, tie, Afra Vugrenes and Jackie Heal (75).
The team of Dave Foreman, Marty Coil, Bob McCormick and Jim Moon shot 21 under par to win the Canyon Oaks CC monthly senior sweeps tournament. Scott Borges, Jim Moon, McCormick and 91-year-old Wendell Summers were closest to the pin winners in that order. The senior men's club also honored Max Newman for his many years of dedicated work organizing countless tournaments and home-and-home events.
Spectacular shots
The tequila and champagne flowed freely after Dave Foreman hit a perfect 196-yard, rescue club into the cup for a "hoyo-en-uno." Foreman and his playing companions, Greg Foutz, Kent Rasmussen and Jim Serrao, were playing the Punta Mita Club de Golf Pacifico in Punta Mita, Mexico, when they witnessed his ace on the No. 6 hole. Hey, in Mexico it's not called a "hole-in-one."
The Elsie McLean Memorial Scholarship was established through the efforts of the Bidwell Park GC Women's Golf Club and is awarded to a deserving Chico State women's golf team member. Last year's recipient of the $1,000 scholarship was Heather Fegley. This program is a fitting tribute to McLean's lifelong passion for golf. Anyone wishing to contribute to the program should mail their check to UF-Elsie McLean Women's Golf Memorial Scholarship, Bidwell Women's Golf Club (Elsie), 3199 Golf Course Road, Chico, CA 95973. McLean would have turned 108 on Nov. 24, and as Tennessee Ernie Ford would have said, "Bless her ever love'n pea-pick'n heart."

- How to Read a Study Record
The objectives of this study are to estimate the efficacy and safety of the daily administration for 6 months of 5 mg versus 10 mg. A 6 month follow-up of subjects is carried out to estimate how the effects of mifepristone are kept in time.
The hypothesis of this study is that both mifepristone doses reduce the volume of the myoma up to 50% in six months treatment.
|Uterine Fibroids
|Drug: Mifepristone
|Phase 2 Phase 3

Student volunteers go all out for Pennsylvania's registration deadline
With Pennsylvania's voter registration deadline less than a week away, the Drexel University team in Philadelphia is preparing to make the most of this weekend.
"I'm absolutely going to be out there all weekend registering voters. Voting is an important part of what makes our country great, and I want as many people as possible to be able to participate. Registering voters is also a lot of fun. It's allowed me to meet a bunch of new people around campus who are as passionate about this election as I am."
"I'm a freshman at Drexel this year and I started volunteering the day after I moved in. It's important to me to register voters because I think it's everyone's duty to vote. When the election could come down to your state, you have to make sure you stand up for who you believe in. I believe in President Obama, and that's why I'll be out there this weekend."
Join Chris, Elizabeth, and hundreds of other volunteers across the country by reminding your friends to register.

Great Old Broads for Wilderness laugh and learn
It's a brilliant Sunday morning in southeast Utah, and a hag mask hangs on the fence before me. Gray hair askew, she gapes at red cliffs through dripping fake blood. The vandal who mounted the mask has also locked the gate to our campsite. No one can get in or out -- a dangerous prospect, since most of the 50 or so folks here are senior citizens.
I'm about to photograph the scene, documenting what to me seems a gruesome tableau, when a voice pipes up: "She's kind of pretty, actually."
"Yeah, she looks wise," adds another.
"Like us!"
"Will you take my picture with her?"
Rose Chilcoat, the rosy-cheeked, energetic 54-year-old associate director of the Great Old Broads for Wilderness, mugs next to the mask as I snap away.
I'm startled by the Broads' calm response to this outrageous threat. The mask comes with an ominous note: "Get out of San Juan County. This is your last warning." But Chilcoat, whose group educates elders about public-lands issues in hopes of making them active stewards, seems unfazed.
Later on, in a more serious moment, she muses: "I never thought little old ladies in tennis shoes would be seen as such a threat." But such extreme reactions to their activism have only encouraged Chilcoat and the Broads to hold fast to what might be called an essential tenet of "Broad-ness": Humor is more powerful than fear.
In a roundabout way, Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, inspired the creation of the Broads in 1989. New Mexican Susan Tixier and some of her backpacking buddies in their 50s heard how Hatch had argued against wilderness designation, saying that prohibiting motorized access excludes the elderly from the backcountry. "We thought, 'Jeez, we are all old and we still hike!' " recalls Tixier. "So, what better than to have old people, particularly old women, stand up for wilderness?"
"We didn't really want to be 'ladies,' and 'women' seemed like kind of a weak noun," she adds, so Great Old Broads it became. The brash name is a selling point to women of a particular type, notes Chilcoat. Broads enjoy joking as they protest; when they picketed against snowmobiles in Yellowstone, one wore a Winnie the Pooh costume with a sign reading, "I can't 'bear' the noise and pollution." "When you get to a certain age, who cares?" she says.
By 2030, there will be about 30 million more senior citizens in the U.S. than there are now. But their growing numbers aren't the only reason to get them interested in public lands, says Chilcoat. Many are retired and have the time to get involved. And, "There's a certain credibility when elders speak, even in this day and age."
The fast-growing advocacy group has about 4,000 members and has opened 22 chapters, known as Broadbands, across the West and in places as far away as Florida. And while the group is unabashedly pro-wilderness, each Broadband has considerable latitude to choose what it works on. As former executive director Veronica Egan puts it: The Broads are "not anti-anything except poor land management."
Spending time with the group in Colorado and Utah, I met grandmothers who could hold forth in intimate detail on grazing policy and octogenarians who volunteer for the Bureau of Land Management, providing informed critiques of federal land-use plans and studies. How, I wondered, do the Broads transform their members from graying retirees into GPS-wielding, public-comment-making dynamos?

SIXTEEN pairs competed for the Hackin Smith Salvers on a balmy Sunday afternoon. This is a Mixed Greensome Foursomes competition. There was stiff competition for places but in the end the husband and wife partnership of Steve and Diane Warlow stormed to victory with a score of 66.8.
It was extremely close for second place with Liam and Cheryl Eva narrowly beating Andrew Smith and Ivy Jenkins who finished third.
The twos pot was shared by Aaron Byrne and Karen Lewis, John and Jackie Skelhorn and Keri and Leigh Broome. Each two was worth £12 in the pro shop.
Friday Evening Roll Up
THERE was a strong entry for the nine-hole roll up and some good scoring. Phil Davies was rampant with a spellbinding 23 points leaving Peter Taylor and Gwyn Scale wallowing in his wake with second place scores of 21 points.
There were two twos by Chris Oliver and Josh Lewis.
July Monthly Medal
THE July Monthly Medal was sponsored by Steve Arnold of Port Engineering Steve has been a regular supporter of the monthly medal over the years. His continued support is much valued.
The presentation was carried out on behalf of Port Engineering by Andrew Arnold who was also among the prize winners. Although there were some late withdrawals because of the damp conditions the weather didn't put a dampener on the scoring.
Early starter Andrew Miles and experienced Gareth Fairburn both returned highly impressive scores of 66 nett with Andrew sneaking first place on count back.
This was also a qualifying competition for the Welsh Individual Handicap Championship to be held at Llandrindod Wells in September, Gareth and Andrew will now have their results submitted for qualification for the 0-12 and 13-28 categories respectively.
On another day the returns of 67 nett made by Andrew Arnold and Tristan Carlson might well have been good enough to win, but their fine scores only brought them 3rd and 4th places, Chris Oliver was in 5th place with a good 68 nett showing a welcome return to form.
The prize for the best gross went to Gareth Fairburn with a splendid one under gross 70. The high scoring meant that the standard scratch was 70 on the day.
There were 11 twos worth £6 each as follows:- Nathan Day x2, Jimmy Howells, Dean Matthews, John Roberts, Paul Thomas, Jeff Button, Alan Dennison, Jack Jenkins, Emlyn Williams and Andrew Windsor.
The impressive scoring meant Dai Humphreys had a field day with the handicaps. His victims were: - Liam Eva 3-2, Tony Hughes 27-26, Andrew Miles 25-24, Chris Oliver 14-13 and Stuart Owen 28-27.
The current standings in the Brian Bebb Order of Merit are as follows:-
1, Tom Hughes 40 pts

Last Thursday, Milford seniors entertained Newport seniors to their annual match at Milford. Milford seniors ran out victors with a landslide of eight and half matches to a half. The Newport captain thanked Milford for an entertaining afternoon and complemented the ground staff on the excellent condition of the course and also thanked Barry and catering staff on an excellent meal.
Ladies Section
Last Tuesday, sixteen ladies played in their weekly tournament in lovely golfing weather. The winner was Lady Captain, Pat Evans with 37 points, and the runner-up was Pauline Summons also with 37 points, but losing out on count back. The course must have been playing easy for some as there were three twos recorded - Denise Kimber and Jackie Skelhorn on hole 4 and Keri Broome on hole 8 - so they shared the kitty.
The next golfing activities for the ladies will be when they take part in the Club Captain's Day this Saturday, and the club wishes Gwyn Scale a very successful day.
Friday Twilight Golf
THIS is a new regular event played every Friday evening at the club. It's a fun nine-hole stableford competition, open to all members and their guests.

WARRINGTON Wolves leaped over Widnes Vikings into Super League's fifth spot after turning in their best display of the season so far.
They rarely looked in trouble against a Vikings side enjoying its best start to a Super League campaign.
Wolves, beaten twice by Vikings last year, led 24-0 at the break having dominated all aspects of the game despite missing Ben Westwood, Simon Grix, Paul Wood and Richie Myler as well as making six team changes from last week's home loss to Hull KR.
Was it any coincidence that the sun was shining bright on The Halliwell Jones Stadium?
Wolves' players, who keep saying they have been crying out for dry pitches, were scoring at a rate of a point a minute in the opening 18 minutes producing a whirlwind start that has not previously been seen by Tony Smith's men this season.
And in the first half they scored more points than in any other home game this season, before ending the clash with two more points than they had amassed in their entire previous four home appearances added together.
In contrast, Vikings have now leaked 86 points in successive games and only crossed in this game five minutes from time.
At the heart of it all for Warrington was Michael Monaghan, dominating around the ruck on the back of marauding forward play from Chris Hill, Roy Asotasi, Ben Harrison and James Laithwaite, giving half backs Gareth O'Brien and Stefan Ratchford the chance to shine.
O'Brien, replacing the injured Myler, was instrumental in the opening three tries and kicked on again in the second half, with his tactical kicking gaining repeat sets and piling pressure on Denis Betts' side.
He scored the opener himself after three minutes.
He angled a run to the line from first receiver after Ratchford's weaving run had left the Vikings defence scrambling.
Chris Bridge's conversion gave Warrington a perfect start.
Vikings, who had welcomed back Cameron Phelps, Alex Gerrard, Danny Galea and Willie Isa, then enjoyed some territorial dominance thanks to their long kicking game.
But conceding successive penalties for lying on at the play-the-ball allowed Warrington to strike again.
O'Brien trickled a kick to the corner for Joel Monaghan and the Australian winger was able to pounce for his seventh try of the season before the ball ran dead.
Bridge added the touchline conversion for 12-0 in as many minutes.
Then O'Brien delivered the play that allowed Wolves to launch another raid.
His high kick caused Rhys Hanbury problems in the sun and after he knocked on attempting to play the ball Wolves got over again three tackles after the scrum.
A powerful Hill run took some stopping and Michael Monaghan spotted a hole to plough over from dummy half from a few strides out. Bridge's extras moved Wolves 18-0 ahead after 18 minutes.
Kevin Brown threw a pass intended for Jack Owens straight into touch as Vikings threatened to hit back after 22 minutes.
A penalty earned by Hanbury when Ryan Atkins held him down in the tackle too long provided Betts' men with an opportunity.
They came close when Paddy Flynn hunted down Brown's kick under pressure from Matty Russell and Rhys Evans but the winger knocked on inches from the dead-ball line.
Wolves thought they had extended the lead moments later when Russell fed Rhys Evans over by the corner flag but video referee Ian Smith called an obstruction on a defender by Trent Waterhouse in the build-up.
After Hanbury was held up short in a strong defensive set on Wolves' own line, Smith's side counter-attacked spectacularly.
Micky Higham, continuing Michael Monaghan's good work, ducked two tackles and darted away from his own 40 metre line before handing on to Bridge in support.
The centre had defenders closing in but his decision to dummy and go it alone proved correct as he just had the legs to get to the line before Jack Owens could get to him.
Bridge made it four from four to convert his own try and put Wolves in the clear ascendancy at 24-0.
Danny Craven's kick straight into touch at the end of the second half's first set paved the way for Wolves to extend their advantage in the 43rd minute.
After O'Brien's grubber kick forced a drop out, he accepted a Ratchford feed to the left and although his long pass was not perfect it bounced and sat up nicely for Rhys Evans to dive over in the corner, with Bridge unable to improve on this occasion to leave Warrington 28-0 in front.
Hill was tackled on his back over the try line in the 55th minute as Wolves attempted to add to their total.
The next score was not long in coming though, with Ben Currie, having switched to right centre in place of Bridge, touching down his own grubber kick after Owens had mysteriously failed to attempt to clear the danger.
Ratchford took over the goal-kicking and potted a beauty from wide out to push his side 34-0 clear.
It started to look too easy as Ryan Atkins kept the ball alive from a destructive run, allowing Waterhouse to send unmarked Rhys Evans in with a walkover and make it 38-0 after 61 minutes.
Vikings finally got on the scoreboard in the 78th minute, squeezing over in the right corner after Hanbury had broken free down the middle before being caught on the left by Russell. Danny Tickle converted.
The Monaghans almost contrived another Warrington try in the closing stages, Michael chipping down the middle for Joel to chase but the ball beat him to the dead-ball line.
From the next set though, Ben Evans stole the ball in the tackle and offloaded for Atkins to cross with the last act of the game. Ratchford's conversion brought up the 44 points and sent the majority of the 10,750 crowd home very happy.
Wolves: Matty Russell; Joel Monaghan, Chris Bridge, Ryan Atkins, Rhys Evans; Gareth O'Brien, Stefan Ratchford; Chris Hill, Michael Monaghan, Roy Asotasi, Trent Waterhouse, James Laithwaite, Ben Harrison. Subs: Micky Higham, Ben Currie, Glenn Riley, Ben Evans.

Ship Weight:0.20 Dosage:4 Drop(s) Flower Essence Services - Healing Herbs Sweet Chestnut (Castanea sativa {green f./yellow m.}) - 0.25 oz. (7.5ml)Flower Essence Services Healing Herbs Sweet Chestnut Flower Essence is a herbal infusion or decoction, made from the flowering part of the plant, which uniquely address emotional and mental aspects of wellness. The first 38 flower remedies were formulated by a British physician, Dr. Edward Bach, in the 1930's, although new remedies from other plant species are now available. Positive qualities: Spiritual depth, faith derived from encountering adversity; solitude rooted in spiritual communion Patterns of imbalance: Pronounced despair and agony; feeling of aloneness or abandonment due to a "dark night of the soul" Frquently Asked Questions What are flower essences?Flower essences are herbal infusions or decoctions, made from the flowering part of the plant, which uniquely address emotional and mental aspects of wellness. The first 38 flower remedies were formulated by a British physician, Dr. Edward Bach, in the 1930's, although new remedies from other plant species are now available. How do flower essences work?To understand how flower essences work requires a recognition that the human being is more than a physical body, but also incorporates a "body" of life energy, a "body" of sensitivity and feelings, and a spiritual essence or Self. Flower essences are energetic imprints of the life force of plants which interact with these subtle bodies of the human being, and evoke specific qualities within us. We can say that they work in a similar way to inspirational music or art, which carry meaning through the vehicle of sound or light, while the flower essences work through the medium of water. Modern physics has known for nearly a century that matter and consciousness are intertwined. However, medical science still generally works with a nineteenth century model of the human being as a mechanism in a world of machines. We expect that in the coming century medical science will develop ways of studying the impact of consciousness on health, and we will learn more about the ways in which flower essences work. However, empirical research, which consists of the collection of case studies and practitioner reports, will remain the primary source of knowledge about how flower essences work. How do I use flower essences?They are typically taken orally from a dropper bottle; the standard dosage is four drops four times daily. You can take the drops directly from stock bottles available in stores; mix them in a glass of water; or make a dosage bottle by mixing several drops with water and brandy (typically 1/4 ounce) in a one ounce dropper bottle. When mixing in a dosage bottle or glass of water, take two drops from each essence selected. There are many others ways of using them, such as in misting sprayers, in a cream base, or in baths. Can I use more than one essence at a time?Several flower essences can be taken together, mixed in a dosage bottle or glass of water. In making a combination, it is important to consider how the essences work together, as well as the appropriateness of each essence in the combination. It is best to limit the number of essences taken at any one time to three to five unless you are working with a skilled practitioner. How do I choose flower essences? How do I decide which mental or emotional issues are most in need of assistance?The best way to get involved in choosing flower essences is to read some basic literature on the topic. The next step is to decide which mental and emotional issues are most important for your health and growth. Based on your choice, you then select the essence or essences which correspond with these issues. You may also wish to talk with a friend or counselor, or to use an ssessment questionnaire or repertory to help you sort through the many possible choices for flower essences. If you are just getting started, choose your most basic and obvious priorities. What if I don't notice any changes at all? Is every flower remedy equally effective for me?Flower essences work by a principle of resonance. They will be most effective and noticeable when they actually match the core mental or emotional challenges you face. If you are addressing only surface symptoms or fleeting feelings, you may not notice much impact from the flower essences. Will flower essences make me feel better?In the long run, working with flower essences will help you to feel more alive and in touch with your goals, values, and creativity. However, the essences do not create euphoria, nor do they banish pain and conflict. They work by stimulating awareness of our conflicts and challenges, and they strengthen our ability to work through the obstacles to our health and growth. Thus, taking flower essences may at times stimulate some discomfort and awareness of pain or conflict. This is a normal part of the journey towards wellness, and can lead to a much more complete state of health than the suppression of pain, or artificial stimulation of feelings through bio-chemical intervention. Do flower essences have physical effects? Can they cure physical illness?Flower essences do not work bio-chemically like aspirin does for a headache, but they can affect our experience of our bodies. For example, essences which help release emotional stress may result in less physical tension. Someone who overworks may discover just how tired he or she really is. Flower essences can help people who suffer from physical illness by addressing the emotional responses to the illness, and by working with the underlying conflicts and tensions that may have contributed to the onset of the illness. However, flower essences are not cures for any specific illness, and are chosen on the basis of mental and emotional issues, rather than specific physical ailments. What if my condition is really serious?If you have a serious mental or emotional condition, or a known physical medical problem, you should seek the care or advice of a qualified health practitioner. Many health practitioners now include the flower essences in their health programs, or work with other practitioners who do. Are there any harmful effects from flower essences? Can I overdose?Flower essences contain only minute traces of actual physical substance; they are primarily vibrational in nature, as are homeopathic remedies. This means that they are non-toxic and one cannot overdose on them, unless one were to drink a huge quantity of them and be effected by the alcohol which is used as a preservative. Do I need to be on a special diet, or to be meditating to use flower essences?Flower essences work best when one is sensitive and open to their effects. However, there are no special requirements to use flower essences other than a willingness to try them. People from a wide range of backgrounds and lifestyles have excellent results with flower essences. Many people using flower essences report that they become more aware of their diet and develop a desire for a quiet time of meditation or contemplation as a result of using the essences. Can I take flower essences if I am on medication? Can I use them to get off my medication?Flower essences can be very helpful for people who are taking prescribed medication for both physical and emotional ailments. To the extent that the medication dulls consciousness, the essences may take longer to take effect, or for their effects to be noticed. Many people taking psychiatric drugs are able to taper down or gradually eliminate their medications by using flower essences. It is important for anyone taking prescribed medications to have their condition professionally monitored, and not to attempt the discontinue medication without medical supervision. How can I use flower essences if I am alcohol sensitive?Flower essences are usually sold at the stock level. The stock contains brandy as a preservative, but this stock is typically diluted into a dosage bottle before taken orally. Dilution methods insure that any alcohol ingested is chemically and physiologically insignificant, approximately one part in 600 when diluted in a one-ounce (30 ml) dosage bottle, or one part in 4,800 in a eight-ounce glass of water. This is less than one hundredth of one percent. Greater amounts of alcohol naturally occur in the human bloodstream through the process of digestion and fermentation of food. Many recovering alcoholics and other alcohol-sensitive persons have benefited greatly from the use of flower essences. All of the following methods have been reported to be effective strategies for alcohol-sensitive persons: Add two to four drops of stock in a large glass of fresh water, stir and sip slowly. Add stock essences to a one-ounce dosage bottle, but fill it 1/3 full of apple cider vinegar as preservative, instead of brandy. Add stock essences in a one ounce dosage bottle, filled 1/2 full with vegetable glycerin. Vegetable glycerin is a derivative of coconut oil; it has a sweet taste and is used extensively to preserve herbal preparations. Add stock essences to a dosage bottle and use no preservative if it is refrigerated, or used in a short period of time (several days to a week). The flower essences are very beneficial when applied topically from the stock bottle in a variety of non-oral ways, including misting around the body, direct application to pulse points or energy centers on the body, mixed in creams or added to baths. How will I know if they are working?Unlike chemical drugs which suppress symptoms, flower essences are catalysts for emotional change, and work by stimulating awareness. Many people report general but discernible differences with essences. They may feel clearer, calmer, or better able to cope. However, in order to note really specific changes with flower essences you will need some way of objectively observing your emotional and mental states. You may wish to keep a journal, discuss your issues regularly with a friend or counselor, or take note of your dreams and other inner events. Often it is the comments of others close to us which first alerts us to changes taking place. Becoming aware of inner changes may take some practice. With physical experiences, we know how to focus our awareness on a problem or pain. For example, the pain is not just in my leg, but mostly in my foot, or precisely in my left foot; it's a throbbing pain that is worse at night or in cold weather. In a similar way, we can learn to be more precisely aware of our emotions and thoughts by a conscious program of self-observation and reflection. When can I expect to note such changes? How long do essences last?A one-ounce (30 ml) dosage bottle is generally used at the rate of four drops, four times daily, and lasts about one month. This is a typical cycle for emotional change, and it is recommended that you use an essence for at least this period of time to fully experience its impact. The remedies often have a subtle beginning, which gradually becomes more obvious. However, a month is only a general suggestion; many people use flower essences for longer or shorter periods of time than this, with good results. An essence or combination should be discontinued when you feel you have completely absorbed or consciously recognized the benefits which were intended from it. How are flower essences different from homeopathic or herbal products?Rather than determining the physical symptoms, flower essences are best chosen by understanding the specific mental or emotional challenges which face you. These remedies are uniquely suited to address this part of your wellness program. How do you know that flower essences have the effects that are claimed for them?Flower essence properties are first developed through a thorough study of the plants from which essences are made. This study includes the plant's structure and form, growth pattern, color, relationship to the environment, chemical properties, herbal uses, as well as energetic properties which are perceived in the plant. These qualities are then correlated with specific human emotional patterns. These preliminary indications are then tested in clinical settings by health practitioners. Through their reports our knowledge of the properties of the essences can be revised, expanded, or verified. This clinical study of the use of essences is called "empirical" research, or research based on experience. It is also the method by which homeopathic remedies have been verified during the last two centuries. Not all flower essences companies thoroughly research the properties of their flower essences. Therefore customers and stores need to investigate the standards and procedures used to verify the indications of essences they purchase. How do store my flower essences?The potency and efficacy of FES flower essences at the stock level are easy to maintain, when they are stored and used properly. To insure their longevity, please consider the following guidelines: Store essences out of direct sunlight, in a moderate or cool environment. DO NOT store flower essences in close proximity to essential oils, incense or other products with strong aromas. Essential oils and other such products have extremely potent vapors that can gradually penetrate through the dropper tops of the bottles hence causing a "scented" taste and compromising the quality of the essences. [Please note that flower essences can also be beneficially combined with essential oils. However, the flower essences then become united with these other substances and no longer have distinct vibrational patterns.] When ingesting flower essences, do not touch the dropper to your mouth and do not place the dropper on an unclean surface. If in doubt, rinse the dropper in water before replacing it on the bottle. When dispensing from stock bottles of essences, have all the components for your formulation well-organized before you open the bottle, so that that actual time you have the stock bottle open is kept to a minimum. If your long-term storage area for the essences tends to be on the warm side (70 degrees or more for prolonged periods of time) it is advisable to store your flower essences upright. In warmer conditions, the alcohol may interact with the rubber dropper, creating a rubber taste in the stock bottle of the flower essence. If stock essences are left open for a considerable length of time or if the cap is not screwed shut properly, the alcohol which acts as a preservative may evaporate. In this condition, flower essences can deteriorate due to microbial contamination. This will be clearly noted in the product—it will smell stale and there may be visible contamination. In adherence with legal regulations, FES is mandated to stamp a lot number and "best by" date on each stock bottle of flower essences. These regulations do not allow more than 10 years from the date of manufacture for such product. However, if the flower essences are used properly, the 10-year shelf life is only a very conservative estimate. If stored and used properly, it is our personal experience—and that of other qualified practitioners throughout the world—that FES flower essences can remain potent for decades.

The drunk worn off and it was like 4 in the morning, and we were just talking on her bed about shit going on in our lives since we barely see each other anymore.

This girl is my best friend that I've maintained a complicated friends with benefits relationship with for years, and she replied saying "I love you too, and I feel like you're the only person who loves me. I don't know what I would do without you in my life." And looked me in the eyes with the most despair.
I didn't know what to say back because that's some heavy shit.... and usually when a girl says the word "love" to me, I ignore her and back away from her life.
But this time, I just fuckin' couldn't. I just hugged her tightly said "I would never leave you, even if it meant losing everything." And she started crying. Instead of trying to fuck, I just comforted her and we slept.
We woke up, and I took her out for breakfast. She said none of her exes ever brought her out or bought her anything, and that made me realize she's been treated like shit by every guy she's dated and I'm the only nice guy in her life.
So tonight, I'm asking her to be my girlfriend. That single sentence she said literally overshadowed EVERY sexual experience I've had with EVERY girl I've been with. That alien feeling of love I've chosen not to feel finally became existent in my life, and it's honestly the best feeling I've had in years.

Pandemic Flu
H1N1 Vaccine
Is the H1N1 vaccine stop you from getting the swine flu or is it like the seasonal flu shot that you still might get it but just not a bad?
The purpose of the H1N1 swine flu vaccine is to stop you from getting the H1N1 swine flu. However, like the seasonal flu shot, it is not 100% effective. If you still get the H1N1 swine flu, hopefully it will not be as bad.

Downing vows to fight for place
Stewart Downing has vowed to fight for his Liverpool place despite West Ham United's interest in signing him.
The winger's first-team future at Anfield is under the spotlight following the arrivals of Iago Aspas and Luis Alberto, both of whom can play in his position.
Hammers manager Sam Allardyce is considering Downing, 28, as an option as he shapes his squad for next season, although he has not yet made a bid.
Downing has had a difficult time at Liverpool since arriving from Aston Villa for £20 million in 2011, although his form improved over the second half of last season.
He was played out of position at left-back during the early stages of the campaign and his attitude was questioned publicly by manager Brendan Rodgers, but he fought back to regain a regular spot on the wing.
He is determined to hang on to that place, telling Liverpool's official website: "At every club, you need at least two or three players in every position to keep people on their toes, but especially at a club like this.
"We're fighting on many fronts – cup competitions and the league – so you have to be strong in every department. But competition brings the best out of players, and hopefully it will in me.
"My targets will be similar to when I got back into the team – enjoy it, work hard and play some good football like we did at the end of last season. If we play like that again as a team, we've got a real chance of success. I've just got to keep going."
Meanwhile, Liverpool back-up striker Michael Ngoo has joined Championship side Yeovil on a season-long loan.
The 20-year-old, who has yet to make a first-team appearance for Liverpool since arriving from Southend in 2009, spent the second half of last season at Hearts.

The Texas Rangers and second baseman Ian Kinsler have discussed the possibility of a position change, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
In order to free up second base for rookie infielder Jurickson Profar, Kinsler potentially would move to first base.
"My feeling is whatever I need to help this team win," Kinsler told the newspaper. "I signed a long-term extension (last April) to win a championship here, and if they think me at first is going to help win a championship, I'm all for it."
Even after trading DH/infielder Michael Young to the Philadelphia Phillies earlier this week and losing catcher/first baseman/DH Mike Napoli in free agency, the Rangers still have a logjam in the infield. In addition to Profar, Texas also is trying to find playing time for third base prospect Mike Olt, who is blocked at the hot corner by Adrian Beltre. And if Kinsler moves to first, it will bump first baseman Mitch Moreland to either the bench, DH or the outfield.
"We're just trying to figure out how many winning players we can get on the field together," general manager Jon Daniels told the Star-Telegram. "Nothing's set in stone, but we wanted Ian to have the chance to digest it and prepare if we ultimately go that way."
Aside from one game at third base, Kinsler has played every game of his seven-season major league career at second base.

Of course. that's a moot point now, and at least one of those high schoolers has already received his mission call. Nick Emery, the high-scoring guard from Lone Peak High, has been called to the Frankfurt, Germany, mission. Emery will begin his mission on May 1. The younger brother of Jackson Emery, former BYU great, is averaging 18.6 points a game for Lone Peak, ranked as the No. 1 prep team in the nation last week by Maxpreps.com before a loss in in a tournament's championship game in Florida. Eleven of BYU's 12 or 13 football games for the 2013 season have been scheduled, but now it appears a scheduled opponent for the 2014 and 2015 seasons wants to get out of a pair of games with BYU. Southern Mississippi apparently wants out, according to an email which was obtained through a GRAMA request by Deadspin.com. The Golden Eagles want a more lucrative payout than the one they can get with BYU. However, if the contract is upheld, Southern Miss will have to pay BYU some $1 million in damages if it cancels.

This week a few blogs have mentioned Denon's ridiculously priced $499 Ethernet cable. In fact one of my favorite cartoon strips User Friendly did a take on the subject: click here to read it Don't we all know by now not to pay large sums of money for cables?
Made from high purity copper wire and high performance connection parts, the AK-DL1 will bring out all the nuances in digital audio reproduction from any of our Denon DVD players with the Denon Link feature. – www.usa.denon.com
This reminds me of the recent test at audioholics.com which pit a $60 Monster 1000 Cable vs a coat hanger. Guess which won?
The test was conducted. After 5 tests, none could determine which was the Monster 1000 cable or the coat hanger wire. Further, when music was played through the coat hanger wire, we were asked if what we heard sounded good to us. All agreed that what was heard sounded excellent, however, when A-B tests occured, it was impossible to determine which sounded best the majority of the time and which wire was in use. – audioholics.com
If you really want to improve your sound check out Machina Dynamica's Brilliant Pebbles. These cost $129 but actually do make a real difference in your audio quality. You can see what they look like in the top photo of this post. Highly recommended.

Prize Recipient
Claudio Pellegrini
University of California, Los Angeles
"For his pioneering work in the analysis of instabilities in electron storage rings, and his seminal and comprehensive development of the theory of free electron lasers."Background:
Claudio Pellegrini received the "Laurea" in 1958 and the "Libera Docenza" in 1965 from the University of Rome. In 1958-1978 he was at the Frascati National Laboratory. In 1978 he joined Brookhaven, where he was Associate Chairman of the Light Source and Co-chairman of the Center for Accelerator Physics. He moved to UCLA in 1989, as a Professor of Physics. He had many visiting appointments and has been a Fulbright Fellow in 1997. He is a Fellow of APS, and has been Chair of the APS Division of Physics of Beams. He has been awarded the International Free-electron Laser (FEL) Prize in 1999.
He has published more than 200 papers, has been the editor of several books, and is a co-author of a textbook on Analytic Mechanics. His work on electron-positron colliders led to the discovery and explanations of a new collective instability in electron beams, the Head-Tail Effect, which can strongly limit the beam intensity and the collider luminosity. His later studies of FELs in the high gain regime as a collective instability, have given a new insight into FELs, and have led to the development of IV Generation Light Sources.

Dictaphone Parcel from Lauri Warsta on Vimeo.
This short titled Dictaphone Parcel won the Passion Pictures Prize in London, in February 2010. What does your package hear as it travels from source to destination?
"Dictaphone Parcel is an animation based on a sound recorded with a dictaphone travelling secretly inside a parcel. As the hidden recorder travels through the global mail system, from London to Helsinki, it captures the unexpected. We hear a mixture of abstract sounds, various types of transport and even discussions between the mail workers. The animation visualizes this journey by creating an imaginary documentary." – Lauri Warsta

A judge denied former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez bail on Thursday. Hernandez, charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of Odin Lloyd, will remain in jail until his trial.
During the bail appeal hearing in Fall River (Mass.) Superior Court, Judge Renee Dupuis described the evidence presented against Hernandez as a "very strong circumstantial case."
The prosecution, led by Bristol County (Mass.) Assistant District Attorney William McCauley, made the successful argument that the evidence against Hernandez was "overwhelming." Because of the player's resources, McCauley argued, Hernandez was too much of a flight risk.

Hernandez attorney James Sultan cited Hernandez's lack of criminal record and argued that Hernandez would not flee because he has a young daughter. He also brought up the fact Hernandez needed medical treatment because he's recovering from shoulder surgery and a back injury that had not been revealed by the Patriots.
Dupuis agreed with Judge Daniel J. O'Shea, who ruled during Hernandez's arraignment on Wednesday in Attleboro (Mass.) District Court that he should be held without bail. Hernandez also faces five other firearm-related charges.
MORE: Photo of Hernandez holding a gun a problem
Prosecutors called Lloyd's killing an execution-style shooting orchestrated by Hernandez because his friend talked to the wrong people at a nightclub.
Hernandez pleaded not guilty to all charges. He could face life in prison, if convicted.
The Patriots cut Hernandez less than two hours after he was arrested and led from his North Attleborough home in handcuffs, and nine days after Lloyd's body was discovered.
Hernandez signed a five-year contract last summer with the Patriots worth $40 million.
Another man, Carlos Ortiz, 27, was arrested Wednesday in Hernandez's hometown of Bristol, Conn., as part of the murder investigation, New Britain State's Attorney Brian Preleski said Thursday. Ortiz was charged as a fugitive from justice and waived extradition to Massachusetts. Prison records show he is being held on $1.5 million bail at a Hartford jail.
Ortiz's public defender, Alfonzo Sirica, declined to comment about the case.
In the meantime, police have been searching a third-floor unit in a condo complex in Franklin, Mass., that Hernandez had visited in recent weeks, according to the unit's next-door neighbor.
Condo resident Carol Bailey said that starting Wednesday and continuing Thursday, police removed items from the modest, two-bedroom rental unit and asked her questions about its occupants. She said a new tenant told her in May that he was moving in with his cousin, and she realized later that the second man he had referred to that way was Hernandez.
"I thought, 'This is Aaron Hernandez. He's renting a place here so he can have some peace and quiet,' " Bailey said Thursday.

Seattle Sounders star midfielder Steve Zakuani says his right leg is OK despite a big scare this week.
He was forced out of Wednesday's CONCACAF Champions League game against Honduras' CD Marathon after he took a hit on his right leg. It was the same leg he broke in a vicious hit in April 2011 that cost him to miss 16 months of action.
"People were like, 'Not again ... ,' " Zakuani told reporters on Friday. "I really didn't mean to (worry them), so I sent out a tweet just saying, 'I'm not injured. Don't be concerned.' I know I'm fine. I'm totally fine. It would take a lot for me to reinjure it. There's no concern." Zakuani, a 24-year-old native of the Congo, has started five matches since returning to action full-time on Aug. 25. He has one goal and one assist in seven MLS games this season.
"He's accomplished so much this year — everything that he's had to come through, that he's had to work through at the beginning of the season," Seattle coach Sigi Schmid told reporters. "He had to take care of a lot in the offseason, so I don't disagree with what he said and I said at the very beginning — that his best soccer is going to be in 2013. But he has really surprised me in what he's been able to do. ... He's doing well enough where he's going to be a part of our playoff activity, for sure. Then, when he has this offseason now to work on getting ready for the season in 2013, I think Steve can get back to where he was."
Seattle (15-7-11) closes out its regular season Sunday at the L.A. Galaxy (15-12-6). The Sounders will enter the MLS playoffs either as the No. 2 or No. 3 seed in the Western Conference.
