Today I fly to Germany to perform two live shows this weekend. Friday night I play at Triebwerk in Dresden. Dresden is probably the only German city I have not been to. I land early Friday morning so I'm looking forward to checking out the city. During World War II it was mostly destroyed and later the city was re-built to look almost like it was never bombed. I'm playing with a friend of mine Swedish techno producer Johan Afterglow. I met Johan in New York City in the late 90s and one night he saved my life (long story!). It's true that if someone does save your life you never forget it. Last year when I was living in Berlin I put some vocals on a few of his songs. My favorite of the bunch was one we did called Incinerate (iTunes).
There is one nightclub I performed at more than any other. It's called Club Prag and I must have dropped a bucked of sweat there about twenty times over the past decade. This Stuttgart club fit my music persona perfectly. The walls are red, the ceiling is low with speakers shooting at you right above ear level. It's the right size, when you stand on stage you can see and scream at everyone in the place.
This weekend they close the doors forever. Club Prag will open on Friday night and stay open until Sunday evening. My set time is 11:00 AM Sunday. There's no doubt it's going to be a lunatic asylum and I'm more than happy to provide the soundtrack. I've met some of my best friends in that small place. The owner Alex and the different promoters who booked me year after year have always been generous with my fee, great hotels and unlimited booze. Club Prag is already a legendary place and I am so pleased to have been part of it.

Angelina Jolie got in touch with the evil side of her "Maleficent" role while filming, which included pranking her co-stars.
Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson caught up with actor Sharlto Copley at the "Elysium" junket where he dished on working with Angelina in the Disney big screen story of the "Sleeping Beauty" villain.
"It was amazing. We pranked each other like crazy," the actor, who plays Stefan, in the Disney movie said.

"She is a very serious prankster," he continued, but stopped short of saying just how the star messed with the South African actor, who audiences might best know from "District 9."
"It is so intense and so controversial that I probably can't [reveal what she did]," she told Shaun. "That's how intense it was.

"The gloves were off. We had an amazing time, two crazy people, doing crazy pranks. We got on super well and had a great time," the actor recalled. "I was like, 'Oh my God, she went there?! OK, that opens the door for me to go there!"
Shooting on the pair's Disney movie is over, however, the pranks might not be.
"I don't know if the pranking is over yet, but I think she'll admit that I won," he said with a smile.
Catch Sharlto in "Elysium," with Matt Damon and Jodie Foster, on August 9.

PSC I Street Receives DPSC Child Birth Delivery Award
June 15, 2012 - The Fairfax County Department of Public Safety Communications (the 9-1-1 Center) presented the DPSC Specific Event Recognition Award for Child Birth Delivery to Public Safety Communicator I Christine Street for her outstanding performance on May 29, 2012.
On May 29, PSC I Christine Street received a call from a woman stating that she was going into labor. It was obvious to PSC Street that this was to be an imminent birth when she had gotten the information that the patient felt the "urge to push". She reacted appropriately by giving the mother of the patient Emergency Medical Dispatch (EMD) child birth instructions while quickly entering an Advanced Life Support (ALS) event using the correct initial remarks. The patient was screaming very loudly during the entire call. PSC Street overcame that obstacle and continued with instructions until the child was born. Upon being told, by the caller, that the baby was not crying, PSC Street supplemented the information and instructed the caller to rub the baby's back and tap his feet. The baby was reported to be breathing. Fire and rescue arrived on scene to take over the efforts. PSC Street was very patient during a phone call that rendered tremendous background noise. She also was quick thinking and provided instructions that helped stimulate the baby to cry and breathe. For her efforts, PSC Street is more than deserving of the DPSC Child Birth Delivery Award.

June 12, 2012 - The Fairfax County Department of Public Safety Communications (the 9-1-1 Center) presented the DPSC Specific Event Recognition Award for Lifesaving to Public Safety Communicator II Lee Fair for her outstanding performance on May 28, 2012.
On May 28, 2012 at 17:14 PSC II Lee Fair answered a call from an employee at 1011 Gelston Circle reporting a 81 year old male had stopped breathing. PSC Fair calmly and professionally obtained all pertinent information to properly process the call. She kept the caller calm during this time of crisis. Her professional training and years of experience helped her maintain control of the call. PSC Fair reiterated that help was on the way all the while performing several cycles of compressions. At one point during the call the patient was heard to be breathing again ..then, however, went back to unconsciousness. After a review with EMS402 (the first medic on scene) who stated by the time units arrived the patient was in fact breathing due to the efforts of the call taker, PSC Fair. The patient was then transported to Fairfax Hospital where he was admitted in stable condition. The actions of PSC Fair directly effected the outcome of this call. She is very deserving of the DPSC Life Saving Award.

DPSC Recognizes 8-year-old Citizen Caller
June 6, 2012 - The Fairfax County Department of Public Safety Communications (the 9-1-1 Center) visited Stratford Landing Elementary School in Alexandria to present 8 year-old Katie Lee with the DPSC 9-1-1 Citizen Lifesaver Award. This award recognizes a Fairfax County resident who called 9-1-1 for assistance, and during the call, became an integral part of the communication with the 9-1-1 call taker. Katie is only the third recipient of this award.
On Monday, May 14, 2012 at 1:49 PM, a 9-1-1 call was made to the Fairfax County, Virginia Department of Public Safety Communications (DPSC) also known as the 9-1-1 Center. The caller was eight-year-old Katie Lee, who resides with her family in Fairfax County. Katie called 9-1-1 because her mother, Mrs. Lee, had fallen down the stairs and was hurt and bleeding. Mrs. Lee could be heard in the background providing Katie information that was needed by the DPSC 9-1-1 call taker, PSC III Carolyn Kellam.
Although Katie was clearly frightened, she calmly provided PSC Kellam her name, address and phone number, and exactly what the emergency was. When PSC Kellam asked her for additional information, Katie bravely took charge, relaying questions and answers between PSC Kellam and her mother. All this while emergency medical services (EMS) units were being dispatched to the Lee residence. Throughout the call, Katie informed PSC Kellam what was happening the entire time…..never missing a thing. Katie smartly suggested to put the call on speakerphone so that there could be direct communication between PSC Kellam and Mrs. Lee.
While communicating Emergency Medical Dispatch (EMD) instructions to her mother, Katie tended to her younger brother, and made sure the front door was unlocked and the family dogs were safely put away allowing access for EMS units who were now in route. Katie stayed completely focused until the EMS units arrived. Toward the end of the call, Katie informed PSC Kellam that she learned to properly call 9-1-1 at school.
Eight-year-old Katie showed remarkable presence and composure. Her actions and perseverance demonstrated great courage and heroism. DPSC is very proud of Katie and recognizes that heroes come at any age. DPSC believes Katie's action are extraordinary for such a young person and recognizes her with the DPSC Citizen Lifesaver Award.

Out of the superstorm, valuable lessons for healthcare providers
New Jersey healthcare officials and providers are professionally prepared for disasters, but the scale and intensity of Hurricane Sandy should provide lessons in emergency response for years to come.
That's the overall consensus of a roundtable briefing held at Jersey Shore Medical Center in Neptune on Thursday.
"I see this as another opportunity for learning and seeing how we can prepare best for next year's season, or even the rest of this winter," said state Health Commissioner Mary E. O'Dowd, who attended the session.
High on the list of post-Sandy concerns are coordination and communication. That's critical when dealing with an army of professional and volunteer first responders, many from out of state. In fact, a related issue had to do with when to call in outside assistance.
An equally essential communication challenge is keeping hurricane victims apprised of available services, whether that's a meal, a mobile emergency room, or mental health counseling. What's more, counseling shouldn't be thought of as something solely for victims; healthcare providers out in the storm had their own stresses to deal with.
A basic question, without easy answers, is how do health providers communicate with victims when phones and Internet service are out? Even more down to earth: did state officials underestimate the staggering impact of Sandy?
Perhaps the most surprising lesson, however, had to do with the volunteers themselves, who found that helping victims was a life-affirming experience.
Listing the Lessons
O'Dowd was not alone when she said that she was keeping a running list of lessons that the storm response was teaching state officials. Public health officials across New Jersey have been compiling their own lists, as they prepare for post-event debriefings.
For O'Dowd, the scale of communication required by the storm -- particularly in coordinating food and shelter available to residents -- was unique.
The commissioner has emphasized in her public statements that residents should be better aware of the resources the state has to offer, including separate phone lines dedicated to providing information about water and home safety and mental health support.
She said to hospital officials, "as much as you can echo that those resources exist and are out there to support, we think that that will bring people quicker, faster and more effectively to routine business."
Emergency response experts said the storm raised a large number of issues, ranging from the ability of healthcare providers to deal with crises of a massive scale to the need for outside support when local providers are facing their own challenges.
Dr. Robert L. Sweeney, emergency department chairman at Jersey Shore Medical Center, said he was concerned with the communication problems that became evident when the power went out.
"Nobody had any way to communicate with anybody," Sweeney said. "They had no electric, so they had no Internet, they had no TV."
According to Sweeney, it's important to think of other ways to spread news to the public.
Dr. Joseph Feldman, chairman of the emergency department at St. Barnabas Medical Center, had a more specific concern. He said that the New Jersey Department of Health needs to further embed the state's Mobile Satellite Emergency Department (MSED) into its early response.
The MSED includes an emergency room on wheels, carried on a semi trailer. It was deployed in Somerset and Ocean counties during the storm.
"What this storm shows is that the state needs a unified and coordinated response," that includes the mobile department, Feldman said.
Minimizing Trauma
Dr. Nicole Lurie, assistant director of U.S. Health and Human Services, emphasized that health officials and employers can better prepare for the traumatic events, reducing the need for those under emotional stress to seek emergency aid.
"There are a lot of resources that go under a label of psychological first aid that employers can learn, that teachers can learn, that anybody touching the public in any way can learn, that can take the lid off enough so that nobody will come to the emergency room," who doesn't have to, Lurie said.
A system of integrating lessons learned through post-disaster briefings has become a part of state hospitals' regular emergency process, as a result of the September 11 attacks, according to New Jersey Hospital Association spokeswoman Kerry McKean Kelly.
"Hospitals have always had emergency plans in place, by their very nature -- it's what they do," McKean Kelly said. But after September 11, the state saw the "the start of a new, more mature, more sophisticated time in emergency planning."
That lesson continues to resonate, reflected in the comments of Lurie, who oversees preparedness and response.
"From our perspective, in every one of these events, we seek to do better than the time before," Lurie said. "I always say that organisms -- and institutions -- that don't evolve become extinct, and we need to continue to evolve with our evolving world and God only knows what we have to be ready for next."
Underestimating Sandy?
Dr. Jane Webber, an associate professor of counseling at New Jersey City University, said the biggest lesson is "never underestimate the power of a natural disaster."
Webber edited a book for mental health counselors about how to respond to terrorism and trauma after chairing the American Counseling Association Foundation following September 11. Webber said that many providers were overwhelmed by a storm that they had underestimated.
Having grown up by the Shore, "we had hurricanes, and they were terrible, but they were never of this power," she commented.
With so many providers dealing with lost or damaged homes, the state showed a need for more out-of-state mental-health professionals, she said.
"Many of us were living as survivors and contemporaneously we trying to help everyone else," said Webber, who volunteered in her community of Bernardsville and late last week was recruiting counselors for the state's Mental Health Helpline.
Webber said the state will benefit from drills that consider a broader scope for natural disasters, and must review how to respond to the needs of elderly residents.
Webber said that Sandy could also teach some positive lessons, citing studies indicating 12 percent to 15 percent of those who undergo crises may experience post-traumatic stress, while 75 percent have "post-traumatic growth" by helping others.
"That is a lesson that we have to use. You see people go out of their way to help each other, reflect on their life, be glad that they're alive," she said.
Drew A. Harris, director of the health policy program at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, said the final step of the post-event process is incorporating the lessons learned into future plans.
Healthcare officials should concentrate on the experience of local providers, said Harris, former assistant director of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey's Center for Public Health Preparedness.
"Talk to the folks at the ground level," Harris said, asking "What would they have liked to have been different?"
Harris said it's also possible to learn from issues that weren't a problem, both what went well and where there were "near misses."
It's important to ask what kept residents in their homes after evacuation orders were issued, from those who were concerned about the welfare of their pets to those who didn't receive the urgent communication.
"So often you're so happy when the disaster is over, you just want to move on from that," Harris said.
Still, Harris said, "I think everyone has been heartened as a result of this. They realize that they do have resilience"
He added, "If you can survive this, you can survive anything."

text: The "Detached House" bears its peculiar characteristic on its front; it stands alone, and nothing more can be said about it; but with the "semi-detached house" there is a subtle mystery, much to be marvelled at. Semi-detached! Have the party-walls between two houses shrunk, or is there a bridge connecting the two, as in Mr. Beckford's house in Landsdown Crescent, Bath? A semi-detached house may be a house with a field on one side and a bone-boiling factory on the other. Semi-detached may mean half-tumbling to pieces. I must inquire into it.

Football fans of the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers leaving south Louisiana after Super Bowl XLVII packed New Orleans airports and spilled over into Baton Rouge on Monday.
Officials at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport in Kenner projected that roughly 42,000 passengers would come through the airport on Sunday and Monday.
Michelle Wilcut, the airport's deputy director of customer service, said some employees began showing up at the airport at halftime of the Super Bowl, and the bulk of them arrived at 2 a.m. Monday to start preparing for the crush.
Airport officials urged travelers to leave their hotels at least five hours before their scheduled flights because of the lines, Wilcut said.
Due to the large crowds, the Transportation Security Administration doubled the number of security checkpoint lanes available and brought in additional baggage screening equipment, she said.
Checkpoints and airport concessions opened at their normal times Sunday but remained open around the clock at certain locations until Monday night, Wilcut said. Despite the extra measures, lines were still long Monday morning at certain checkpoints and ticket counters.
In Baton Rouge, however, there were virtually no lines, but Metro Airport officials said departing flights were at capacity.
"Our flights are totally full," airport spokesman Jim Caldwell said. "There's not a seat to be booked."
Normally, about 1,400 passengers depart the airport on a busy day, Caldwell said. "We probably have about 1,600 to 1,700 outbound passengers leaving today," he said.
Joe and Beth Pagane, 49ers fans who traveled to New Orleans from Orlando, Fla., said they flew through Baton Rouge because they bought frequent-flyer tickets.
"U.S. Airways frequent flyers took us here," Beth Pagane said. The couple stayed in New Orleans, she said.
The couple said they appreciated the short lines at Baton Rouge's airport.
Ravens fans Luke Monaldo and Stephanie Goldberg, of Silver Springs, Md., flew into New Orleans on Saturday and were departing from Baton Rouge because there were no available seats on flights from New Orleans, Goldberg said.
"Everybody's been so nice," Goldberg said.
The Super Bowl also meant heavy traffic at facilities that cater to private airplanes.
At Lakefront Airport in New Orleans, the crowds weren't as dense as those at Armstrong, but they were still much larger than usual.
Addie Fanguy, the general manager of the Lakefront airport, said the facility will likely have handled about 600 chartered and private flights during Super Bowl weekend.
Landmark Aviation, which runs the airport, brought in roughly 70 additional staff members from facilities across the country to help with the increased usage, and they were augmented by Super Bowl volunteers.
"We probably did six weeks' worth of flights in three days," Fanguy noted.
The story was similar at Louisiana Aircraft, the largest such facility for charter and private planes at Baton Rouge Metro Airport.
"We ended up with about 70 aircraft overall. That's just the ones that stayed overnight," said Landon Petty, general manager of Louisiana Aircraft. "Another 25 or so came and went."
A normal weekend in February might bring anywhere from 5 to 10 jets, so the extra traffic was welcome, Petty said.
"It's really abnormal for this time of year," he said. "This is a nice little jolt."
While the number of private planes was fewer than for some other events — last year's LSU-Alabama football game in Baton Rouge drew 147 private planes — the planes for the Super Bowl were bigger, including some large business jets, Petty said.

I just joined and wanted to say Hi and ask a question.
I've been playing recreationally for about 5 years, and I tend to score about 10-15 over par on the average course (counting every hole as a 3 par).
I haven't really gotten any better in the past couple of years, and I'm wondering what I need to do to get really good. One guy who seems really good told me to hang a blanket up and just throw disc after disc into it every day, and that will help the most. That, and getting a basket and a big back yard to practice putting.
The big back yard and basket are in the works. I'm wondering about the whole blanket thing. Does that sound like the right drill to improve my drive? I need more distance and more accuracy.

Pupils at St Laurence School in Bradford on Avon hope to be as successful as old boy and Olympic gold medal winning Ed McKeever, but with bats rather than a paddle.
Two new outdoor table tennis tables were installed at the school, for use at break and lunchtimes, with others at Christ Church and Fitzmaurice Primary Schools. They were paid for by Sport England and the area board from the proceeds of the Community Sports Festivals held in Bradford on Avon in 2011 and 2012.
Karen Butler, schools cluster co-ordinator for the town, said: "Who knows, the next table tennis Olympian could come from Bradford." She thanked Isobel Martindale, who led the festivals committee.

Viterbo University is truly a home away from home! There is such a sense of community and welcome; I could feel it even while just visiting, but now that I…
Viterbo University is a great university for anyone looking to pursue any type of career. They really prepare you for you career interests and get you out into the field…
Perfect for that home away from home feel. The professors and staff are all so welcoming. The size of campus is just an extra plus. …
awesome atmosphere. everyone is so nice and helpful. small class room size!…
good school in a small community. staff has student's interest at heart. small class sizes for easier interaction with professors.…
The Viterbo University community prepares students for faithful service and ethical leadership.
there is usually lots of activities going on. vu after dark is a program where there are activities, games, and movies for anyone to go to on friday and saturday nights but it's mostly aimed towards freshman and sophomores. there tons of clubs, many based on common majors, like the viterbo student nursing association and others. if you want to create a club you do it! this year there are several new clubs on campus. i really enjoyed most of the teachers i had this past semester. my classes were smaller, as most are at viterbo, and if you participate in class and ask questions you'll enjoy the class more and the teacher will get to know you better as well.Read More
I love how compact the campus is. Viterbo is like a mini city/community inside a large city. It is not like UW-Madison, UW-Oshkosh, or UW- Stout that covers many blocks. Viterbo has very great values too. Since they were founded by the Franciscan Sisters, Viterbo University tries to integrate some of the Franciscan values into the way the teachers teach and how the students learn.Read More

Investigating officer Pc Martyn McHale, from Witney police station, yesterday appealed for anyone with information to call 101.

Police have described the missing woman as white, about 5ft 4in tall, with curly brown hair and glasses. She was wearing a purple coat.
Police yesterday said the missing woman was 54 but this morning corrected themselves and said she was 61.

In the 1990s, I started studying the stock market so I could devise an investment strategy to use when investing my own money. I then realized that there was no need for me to create my own investment strategy, because a number of others, who had more experience than I would ever have, had already done so. They studied the market, tested their ideas in the real world, tweaked them when necessary and came up with strategies that proved themselves over time.
Once I realized this, I decided to take these proven strategies (these investors had described their strategies in detail in books they wrote or others had written about their strategies), automate them to use for my own account. When these adaptations of their strategies proved effective, I created, in 2003, a website, Validea.com, so others could use these strategies for themselves. These are the strategies I use to choose stocks in the column I write here each week.
I automated the strategies of such well-known investors as Peter Lynch, Ken Fisher, David Dreman and Warren Buffett. With the exception of the father of investing, Benjamin Graham, who died in 1974, all of these men (and they were all men) were alive and still investing.
I am sorry to report that one of these great investors just died at the relatively young age of 70: Martin Zweig. Zweig was a very sophisticated, colorful investor who was in the front lines of Wall Street for decades, and he proved himself time and again. Zweig was an interesting mix of Wall Street-style street-fighter and academic.
He was known to flaunt his wealth, of which he had plenty. Bloomberg reports that he owned the sequined dress Marilyn Monroe wore when she sang "Happy Birthday" to President John F. Kennedy. He also is widely credited with calling the 1987 Wall Street crash. CNBC wrote in its obituary of Zweig: "Noted as much for his opulent lifestyle as well as his stock market prognostications, Zweig leaves a legacy marked by many years of success that extended well beyond the crash call."
In addition to being colorful, he held an undergraduate degree from Wharton and a Ph.D. in finance from Michigan State University. He could be flamboyant, but he also knew what he was talking about.
With Zweig's death, this is a good time to look at his approach to investing. Like many, he was a student of the price-to-earnings ratio, but unlike most, he put a floor under what is an acceptable P/E. He would not buy a stock whose P/E was less than 5, because he thought that companies with lower P/E ratios were probably weak. He was pretty liberal about how high he would go when it came to P/E ratios, but he had his limits, namely no more than three times the market average (the market average today is about 15) or no more than 43, whichever was lower.
He also focused on earnings per share. He did not just want a company's earnings to be increasing, he wanted to see an accelerating rate of increase. This helped assure that the investor was not getting into the stock after growth was slowing down. He also believed that for earnings growth to continue over the long haul, it must be driven by sales growth.
His approach works. Since I started following his strategy on Validea.com in July 2003, it has produced a total return of 116.5%, more than double the S&P 500's return of 53.0% for the same period. So far this year, my Zweig-based strategy is up 13.2%, compared with the S&P's 7.3% gain.
If you want to take advantage of Zweig's investment prowess, my adaptation of his strategy currently gives high marks to:
lululemon athletica (LULU)
Questcor Pharmaceuticals (QCOR)
Oracle (ORCL)
RIP, Martin Zweig.

No, that was maybe 60 or 70%. There is a tournament at the course I was throwing at(trophy lakes in charleston, SC) this weekend and it was very busy the day I was trying to film. There are only a few holes I would feel comfortable giving it everything(there is a lot of water on this course) and I didnt want to clog up the pace by throwing a handful of discs and then having to go find them if I shanked one. Just a straight shot with a little fade at the end.
I see what you mean about the momentum in hips and shoulders, and I have been experimenting with a longer reach back(Will Schusterick's new drive video), but I haven't really gotten used to the torque yet and I turn the disc over a lot. As far as the core tightness, that was just laziness on my part I guess, usually my pre throw routine checklist has a few "JR" requisites that I try to focus on before my throw(run up line, core tightness, staying on balls of feet).
It seems like my snap is a bit forced, do u think that is just a timing issue? My right leg and hips seem to be opening too soon.
Anyways, I looked at some of my videos from last summer and I can definitely tell I have come a long way, so thanks again to all of you who take free time out of your day to help a fellow disc golfer get better!

COLUMBUS – Americans for Prosperity – Ohio issued the following statement today on the proposed rules submitted by President Obama's Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to regulate carbon emissions. Last week, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce released a study indicating that these rules would kill nearly 32,000 jobs in the region and cost the regional economy $7.4 billion annually.
"Ohio consumers and business owners along with the hard working men and women in the coal industry will all be hurt by these job-killing regulations," said Eli Miller, Americans for Prosperity Ohio State Director. "Unfortunately Ohio consumers and business owners not only have to contend with these new unrealistic regulations from the federal government, but here at home, politicians like Ed Fitzgerald are trying to increase electricity rates by forcing even more unrealistic green energy requirements on Ohio consumers. Thankfully the Ohio legislature passed SB 310, which will protect Ohio's consumers and business owners from some of the higher energy prices. We hope Ohio's representatives in Congress will have the same prudence and foresight as their counterparts in Columbus and oppose these new EPA regulations."

Good morning, masters!

TC: You snuck in on me. Nice power hour!
Must be a sleep in day?
Last night's track workout was good misting rain kept the temp's down 82 but it's 100% humitity. We did a 3 mile warm up then 5 X 5 mins with 2 mins of easy jogging between 1st two were @ 7:10 per mile or 1:47 per 400, #3 was 7:00 or 1:45 per 400 and last two were @ 6:50 around 1:42 per 400 then 3 X 150 strides @ 90% but under control, 1 mile cooldown and ended with 30 mins of plyometrics.
I ran early this morning legs not did like the early run after last night's workout 6 miles easy on trails and y legs felt great at the end, did not want to play at the start! Will hit the gym tonight for upper body and core and doing a open water swim in the morning early!
Upsman: Nice 9
EIB: Nice job on your double and 5, add weights that a big day!

George: Nice 5.1
TC: Nice work!
E: Morning
Good morning! 8 miles EZer, 9:07 pace.
Off to work, have a great day!
Really busy day today as I accompanied a 14-member from UAE high-level government delegation to a couple site visits in the morning and with them at lunch as well. Embarrassed myself not once but twice when a greeted one of the women with an extended arm to greet and shake hands only for her to pull back and not shake hands with me. Kind of caught me off guard the first time but after lunch I was saying my good-bye pleasantries and "safe trip back to the emirates" and totally forgot and extended my hand again only for her to pull back and apologize and tell me that she doesn't shake hands with males and for me not to be offended. I wasn't but was a bit embarrassed...what makes it even more complicated as the other woman (wearing Western style dress) from Lebanon had no qualms about about shaking my hand. Oh the ins and outs of cross-cultural communication to keep one on their toes. Fun stuff ~
REST day otherwise and will hit the KS tomorrow morning for some run on the TM...
Have a good day Masters!
Good morning elizabeth! Wednesday: 8 miles 1:15:15 - 9:28 avg. pace - easy+form drills / strides. I had nothing. Due to my lackluster run I bagged my recovery run last night. Slept through my alarm again. Looks like I'll be dodging rain today. Have a great day Masters!
10 miles 1:37:50 - 9:47 avg. pace - recovery
Hi there,
I had bootcamp class this morning - still stupid humid here, so another sweat-fest. 3 miles planned for after work.
Teresa, keeping busy as always, huh? :-)
gotta go, have a great day everyone,
Morning masters. XT yesterday (dead lift, pull up, dip, press) and planning a run of UDL after work today. The 1 AM thing is a little skewed since I work 1pm to 1 am right now.
DAW: Burpees are good stuff. Painful but.......
Pudov: International relations certainly can get tricky. I wouldn't sweat it too much. I'm sure it's not the first time it's happened.
Check in later.
Good afternoon Masters! I ran 12.1 miles this morning. It was raining and as I got out of my car it stopped. I was bummed as I would have preferred the rain to keep it cooler.
BOSNPM: Super track workout! You have to love a good mist this time of year!
Upsman: Your easy pace is my trucking it pace.
Gregory: LOL. For me the tough part is that some of the ladies I know expect you to hug them and others expect a handshake. The trick is remembering which is which. I was at a social function and went to hug one of the ladies who gave me the business once for shaking her hand saying "We were better friends than a hand shake." This time her hubby was there and she gave me the look like I really screwed up.
Moth: Nice ten!
Elizabeth: Nice job on bootcamp! Have a great after work run!
n8: Those are some tough hours man!!
Hey all. No run this morning, as expected. Very late night last night helping DD#1 and DW driving back from Williamsburg, VA. plus needed to get DD#3 to her internship this morning. Probably won't run tonight and will save it for tomorrow AM.
Fittest - funny story yesterday. Hope you are feeling better. I was on the track two weeks ago doing an easy run with strides and a couple of lacrosse players were playing "stay with the runner", but they stopped after 2 miles or so. That is one reason I do not like the track during the warm seasons.
Liz -thanks for starting us off.
Moth - sounds like you are going through one of those tired running periods. Smart to drop last night's run. EDIT - nice recovery 10.
Hey Kona. I was reading your post from last night thinking, where does she get the energy from?! Ha, ha. I thought there was only 5 zones. Have fun tonight.
Tony - Nice 14 yesterday. EDIT - Nice 12.1 today. I can imagine that your humidity is as bad as ours right now (maybe worse). Should we start talking about winter? Funny story you told Pudov. Guys...we can NEVER get it right.
BOS - Great times on your workout, in the heat, last night. I was wondering if the coach was going to push you in the heat. Guess that answers my question. Way to follow it with 6 this morning. My legs felt like that yesterday AM after Tuesday night's run.
Ups - Nice 8. similar
Pudov - Like you story. Guess that makes you a big shot also. I appreciate people, like yourself, who can consistently put themselves in different situations with new people and spend time with them communicating. Definitely takes skills that many people (including myself) do not have. Waiting for you to run for Prime Minister of Canada. Maybe you can bring the Cup back.
Simmons - Always wanted to run at 1AM. Hope you get something in tonight/tomorrow.
George - nice 5.1. Your paces have been very consistent.
Warming up on the great west coast.......all runs the rest of the week will be top down since it is already in the 80's by 7am and I will get a good chance this weekend to knock out some triple digit 10 milers.
mysol: It's definitely humid here! I much prefer the cold weather running.
tww: Nice running! Your workout is my 10K/HM race pace.
nightbefore: A shout out to you my brother!
Good afternoon, masters.
Eight mile ladder style GA run on tm at 7:30 avg pace, plus 225 more push ups. I ended up with 250 yesterday and will probably do another 25 today. I'm looking forward to a weekend break, but then I move on to burpees as the exercise of the month for July. The combination of push-ups and cardio this week seems to have drained my muscle glycogen reserves. It has been a struggle to walk up the six flights of steps to my desk. I typically take the steps three times per day, but today I took the elevator on what would have been my third trek up the steps.
bosn - MOS school for DS will be in 29 Palms, CA. Can be up to one year of schooling depending on how well he does. Nice work in the heat and humidity for you.
TC - nice to see you checking in. 120 rpm is flying.
Tony - I remember your 1000 sit up days. Did PT tell you it was counterproductive, or just want you to spend more time on other things?
pudov - I'm sure it has happened many times. Not much interfacing with that part of the world for me.
moth - how were the legs today?
elizabeth - I have been avoiding outdoor workouts this week. I'm off next week, so won't have a choice.
N8 - 1 pm to 1 am, sound like tough hours on top of a long day. How many days do you have to do that?
mysol - sounds like your dd's are keeping you moving.
TWW - triple digit temps! I would say good luck, but I know you handle the temps without a problem.
george - so are you maintaining normal pace in the heat by reducing distance? Nice 5.1 yesterday.
moth - how were the legs today?
Better but not up for anything up tempo so I just ran super easy and got some miles in.
Good Evening Masters,
7.1 miles this warm summer evening in 58:57 @ 8:19 pace.
DAW - squeezing a run in whenever I can. Busy with work/family no complaints and just enjoying the runs in between. Good way to get it done everyday with the walk up the stairs. Nice GA run on the TM.

Amarillo, Texas — Hastings Entertainment reported that net income was approximately $1.2 million, or 15 cents per diluted share, for the fourth quarter ended Jan. 31, compared with a net loss of approximately $8.4 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, for the same period last year. Net loss was approximately $9.3 million, or $1.14 per diluted share, for the fiscal year ended Jan. 31, compared with a net loss of $17.6 million, or $2.05 per diluted share, for the fiscal year ended Jan. 31, 2012.
"Our revenues continue to be negatively impacted by the increasing popularity of digital delivery, rental kiosks and subscription-based services, as well as the longevity of the current video game console cycle" said John Marmaduke, CEO and chairman. "In spite of lower revenues, our pre-tax profit for the fourth quarter increased over the fourth quarter of the prior year. Further, we reduced our pre-tax loss for the fiscal year by $3.7 million, or 29%, compared to the prior year.
"As of the end of the fiscal year, we have introduced our new product categories in forty-four of our 137 superstores. These categories include consumer electronics, music electronics and accessories, hobby, recreation and lifestyle, vinyl and tablets and were the primary driver in increases in comparable revenues of 15.1% and 12.9% for the quarter and full fiscal year, respectively, in our electronics department. We are dedicating approximately 600 linear feet per store to these categories and also increasing linear footage for trends including apparel, kids and seasonal categories along with a reduction in footprint dedicated to rental, music and books. We are encouraged by the results of this change to our business model and look forward to a full year's performance. Additionally, we plan on expanding these categories to an additional sixty-one stores in fiscal 2013."
Total revenues for the fourth quarter decreased approximately $11.5 million, or 7.5%, to $141.6 million compared with $153.1 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011.
Total revenues for the fiscal year ended Jan. 31, 2013 decreased approximately $33.9 million, or 6.8%, to $462.5 million compared to $496.4 million for the fiscal year ended Jan. 31, 2012.
As of Jan. 31, 2013, the company operated three fewer Hastings superstores, as compared to Jan. 31, 2012.

Hot air balloon rides shatter the stork community's monopoly on carrying humans in baskets. Democratize the skies with this Groupon.
$179 for a Hot Air Balloon Ride with Champagne Toast ($235 Value)
This Groupon is valid for a ride for one person. Rides are shared with multiple passengers.
After watching the hot air balloon's inflation and soaring over the Sonoma Valley and Hidden Valley amid early morning views of vineyards, rivers, and distant mountains, passengers—who must be 6 years old or older to ride and 21 or older to drink—clink glasses for a toast with their host and pilot, who describes the rich history of hot air balloon flight. The full balloon ride experience lasts from three -four hours and includes balloon set-up, a nearly hour-long flight, and deflation, followed by a champagne toast.
Sonoma Valley Balloons
With its sprawling, emerald vineyards, slate-colored lakes, and winding rivers, the Sonoma Valley seems unfairly intended for birds. However, Sonoma Valley Balloons' FAA-certified balloon pilots with more than 30 years of experience rebelling against gravity of Mother Nature, lifting their hot air crafts from the ground and navigating them along the morning sky's gentle air currents with little sensation of motion and wind. Because of this, passengers have commented that they didn't realize the balloon had lifted off the ground, and that they had no perception of height as there is nothing connecting them to the ground.
As the aerostat soars over the picturesque valley and Russian River with the sight of the Pacific coast to San Francisco Bay, geysers, and giant redwood trees in the distance on clear days, passengers can merely gaze in awe at the views or finally retrieve their long-lost frisbees. All pilots are fully insured and licensed by the California Public Utilities Commission and United States Department of Transportation, ensuring a safe, professional flight.

Plane with four on board still missing in WyomingOct 11, 2012 The Associated Press
CHEYENNE -- A search is continuing in southeast Wyoming for a single-engine plane carrying four people from Texas.
Albany County sheriff's spokesman Lt. Brian Fritzen said Thursday the search is focusing on Laramie Peak north of Laramie because that is where radar operators lost contact.
Jeanne Stone-Hunter of the Wyoming Civil Air Patrol says the Piper PA-32 aircraft was reported missing after it failed to land as scheduled Tuesday evening at Casper/Natrona County International Airport.
She says the flight originated from Harrison County Airport in Marshall, Texas, and stopped in Dodge City, Kan., to refuel.

Police cite Duck recruit for physical harassment
EUGENE, Ore. - A Duck football recruit faces a misdemeanor charge of physical harassment after slapping a woman's bottom in an attempt to get her to leave a house at 3 a.m. Sunday, Eugene Police said.
Tyree Robinson got in a dispute with the woman while trying to get her to leave a house in the 1400 block of Orchard Street, according to police.
The woman did not require medical attention, police said.
Robinson was cited to appear in municipal court July 30.
The University of Oregon football program said any discipline related to the incident would "be handled internally."
"We are aware of the situation and will continue to gather information regarding all of the surrounding circumstances," head football coach Mark Helfrich said in a statement. "We expect - and our student-athletes are committed to - the highest level of conduct as members of this University community and team. We will continue to educate all of our student-athletes in all matters of behavior consistent with these standards. Once all the facts are in and in accordance with team policy, disciplinary action will be handled internally."
Robinson and his twin brother Tyrell committed to Oregon before coach Chip Kelly left. The brothers reopened their recruitment and looked at Washington and Ohio State before recommitting to Oregon.

The Australian dollar is hovering around 93 US cents as investors await the release of local unemployment figures.
At 1700 AEST on Wednesday, the local currency was trading at 93.14 US cents, down from 93.34 cents on Tuesday.
Australia's unemployment rate is expected to remain steady at six per cent when labour force figures for July are released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics on Thursday.
The Aussie dollar was treading water near 93 US cents ahead of the release, FXCM market analyst David de Ferranti said.
"Traders are likely treading cautiously ahead of tomorrow's local employment figures," Mr de Ferranti said.
"An upside surprise to the headline jobs added figure could spark a slight recovery for the currency.
"However, follow-through could prove limited given the Reserve Bank is unlikely to change its tune until more consistent progress is made in the labour market."
At 1700 AEST, one Australian dollar was buying 69.71 euro cents, up from 69.54 euro cents on Tuesday, and 95.51 Japanese yen, down from 95.73 yen.
Australian bond futures prices were lower ahead of the jobs figures, said JP Morgan interest rate strategist Sally Auld.
"Some of the leading indicators for the labour market have been better lately and some people might be thinking that could show up in tomorrow's figures," Ms Auld said.
At 1630 AEST on Wednesday, the September 2014 10-year bond futures contract was trading at 96.485 (implying a yield of 3.515 per cent), down from 96.530 (3.470 per cent) on Tuesday.
The September 2014 three-year bond futures contract was at 97.260 (2.740 per cent), down from 97.290 (2.710 per cent).

I constantly harp on my kids about skill and technique in everything they do. There is no detail too small, no skill too basic or trivial. You can imagine how they enjoy hearing it.
Unfortunately my kids play soccer. Now I love to watch good soccer as
much as anyone (reference: Spain embarrassing Germany) but youth soccer
is mostly random booting, pinball played on a big, grassy field. If
I'm going to be forced to watch them play they're going to do it with
skill and technique.
To that end we host Brazilian coaches every summer. Brazilians are
widely known as the masters of soccer. They all came out of the
Brazilian youth academies and are on scholarship here. The coaches
spend the summer here in Rochester coaching local youth teams and
hanging out at our house. It's crazy but we love it, they've become
So if you're going to learn soccer get yourself some Brazilians. If you want to be a better developer come to dW and read our articles, participate in our communities, blogs, forums, wikis etc etc.

Detectives: Roseburg man was dealing heroin near school
ROSEBURG, Ore. -- A Roseburg man is behind bars after detectives with the Douglas Interangency Narcotics Team found him allegedly dealing heroin.

DINT officials say they found five grams of heroin hidden in a prescription bottle in the residence.
Baker is currently being held at the Douglas County Jail, with his bail set at $512,500.
His charges include unlawful possession of heroin and unlawful distribution of heroin within 1,000 feet of a school.

Did you or that technician take the time to figure out why the coupling went out in the first place? Sometimes we do but most of the time we are in a hurry and want to get the system fixed. Then move on to another job. There is an inner desire in all of us to make the customer happy by restoring there hydronic system. Restore it so comfort or temperature control can be realized once again. Going back to the basics can help us from making that return call to make another repair.

FERNDALE -- Both head coaches looked emotionally exhausted after it ended.
In a game that started soggy and ended suspenseful, Ferndale scored with 12 seconds remaining to rally past St. Bernard's 20-13 in a North Coast Section Division 5 playoff semifinal.
The winning touchdown -- quarterback Kyle Chambers' one-yard sneak -- gave Ferndale its only lead of the game.
"We deserved to win that one," said St. Bernard's head coach Jason White. "There's no doubt they (Crusaders) did everything they could."
The drama unfolded in the final minute, with St. Bernard's leading 13-12 and Ferndale -- with no timeouts -- in a first-and-goal at the one-yard line.
The stout Crusaders' D stopped the Wildcats' surge on first down and, after no official indicated a touchdown, the Wildcats hustled to line up and run another play.
This time, Chambers pushed through the left side. With muddy players piled on the ground and the clock ticking down, the officials again delayed their call. With anxiety building on both sidelines, one official then raised both his arms, signaling a touchdown.
"We kept fighting and it turned out well at the end," said Ferndale head coach Kim Jorgensen, whose team added a two-point conversion for the final points.
With the victory, the Wildcats (11-1) advance to the North Coast Section Division 5 championship game next Saturday at 1 p.m. at Humboldt State's Redwood Bowl. Their opponent will be St. Vincent (10-2), who picked up a 13-12 road win at California School for the Deaf on Saturday.
The loss ended a fine season for St. Bernard's (7-5) and its 16 seniors.
Less than 30 minutes before the game kicked off, dark skies opened up and an almost-horizontal soaking rain created mucky conditions on the grass at Coach Carlson Field.
As a result of the sloppy footing, the first half ended scoreless, as the Little 4 rivals combined for nine punts and just four first downs.
The second half's initial play gave an indication that things would change.
St. Bernard's special teams unit sparkled, with Sierra Domingo taking the opening kickoff and returning it 56 yards deep into Ferndale territory.
But the Cats' D stiffened, forcing the Crusaders into a fourth-and-nine situation on the Ferndale 15-yard line.
Making good things happen for St. B's, QB Christian Mello then rolled left out of the pocket and threw a strike to Shed Bean in the end zone for the first points of the contest. Bean kicked the point after and the visitors led 7-0.
Just over two minutes later, St. B's tacked on six more points after Ferndale misfired in punt formation.
The snap bounced at punter Dakota Ward's feet and, before he could grab the loose pigskin it skidded away. Domingo alertly picked up the ball and rumbled into the end zone from nine yards out for the scoop-and-score. The point-after try was unsuccessful.
With his team trailing the Crusaders 13-0, in the rain on a muddy field, was Jorgensen concerned?
"Yes, I was concerned, no matter what the conditions were," he said.
On Ferndale's ensuing drive, Chambers gave his team momentum when he connected with receiver Wyatt Standley on a 29-yard pass play down to the St. B's 38-yard line.
The Wildcats then got a dose of good fortune, as Chambers threw downfield to Jacoby Hughes, who was double-covered by Patrick Allen and Mello. Allen tipped away the pass but Hughes caught the ball behind the defenders and took it to the house for Ferndale's first points. The home team decided to go for two points, but St. B's broke up the pass.
In the fourth quarter, Ferndale manufactured a 12-play, 77-yard drive, kept alive by two St. B's penalties -- including a helmet-to-helmet hit on Chambers. Justin Lang ended the drive with 17- and 12-yard runs, the latter reaching the south end zone with 4:23 left in the game. The Cats elected to go for two to take the lead, but the Crusaders stopped the run.
St. Bernard's nursed a 13-12 lead but stalled on its subsequent drive, and was forced to punt.
Punter Rolo Olivares did a good job escaping the rush to get off a long line drive, but a holding penalty cost the Crusaders 10 yards and forced a re-kick. On the next play, as Olivares crouched to grab the low snap, officials whistled the play dead, ruling that the punter's knee had touched the ground.
The result?
Ferndale took over on downs at the St. Bernard's 15-yard line, setting the stage for the final drama.
Logan Bongio finished with 62 yards on 11 carries, including bursts of 15 and 20 yards, to lead the Crusaders' ground attack.
On defense, Ben Kortus made multiple good tackles, Mana Tanuvasa recorded a sack, and Bean smacked Lang out of bounds to negate the Wildcats' flea-flicker that would have given them a first down inside the 10-yard line.
Lang carried the rock 17 times for 63 yards to pace the Wildcats, and Standley added an 18-yard run on a reverse.
The Wildcats got a pair of key first-half plays, the first being Dakota Ward's 45-yard punt out of his end zone, and the other Ike Townsend's interception after Briceland Franklin blitzed and hit Mello just as he threw the ball.
