Vern Eastleywrote a review of Ultimate Direction Fastdraw Plus Water Bottle - 20oz on July 11, 2011
My favorite handheld bottle
This is my favorite trail running handheld out of the three I've tried, the others being from Amphipod and Nathan.
The bottle felt comfortable and natural in my hand after only a few seconds of running. The shallow indentations on the bottle under your thumb and first two fingers help maintain an easy grip. It feels less slippery than the Amphipod when my hands are sweaty. It's also effortless to switch hands with this bottle, while the Amphipod bottle seems to resist taking my hand out.
I also REALLY like the kicker valve. Apparently everyone who tries one either loves it or hates it. I find it very easy and natural to drink from. Just pull up on the valve, very lightly bite down, and squeeze with the bottle. It sounds complicated but I find it very intuitive while running. It's a refreshing change after the sadistically stiff valve on the Amphipod.
As for the bottle itself, the valve has never leaked, and the plastic didn't have a nasty industrial smell. The Nathans I've used suffered from both faults.
At first I was puzzled by the plastic loop on the lid, but it proved handy when I needed both hands to fiddle with something--I just slipped my little finger into the loop for a moment. Cool little feature. It's almost as if the bottle's designers actually went running with it or something.
I had my doubts before ordering this bottle, since for some reason it's not sold many places and I'd heard strange things about the valve. But having used it on some serious runs, this is now far and away my favorite. Give it a shot.

This Friday through Monday, Nov. 8-11 will be the annual Sheepdog Trials, beginning each day at 10 a.m. at the UC Hopland Field Station, 4070 University Rd., in Hopland. Turn right at University Road and continue for 1.8 miles to driveway on right. Turn at driveway to barn for parking.
What is a Sheepdog Trial?
Events vary with different courses throughout the world, but the key element at any event is the control of three to six sheep by one or two highly trained dogs under the control of a single handler.
Both time and obedience play a part, as competitors are penalized if a sheep strays from the prescribed course. This is more difficult than it sounds and takes much training for both handler and dog.
The exact layout of the trial field can vary significantly. Most experienced handlers agree that there are certain elements that are important to ensure that the challenge to the dog and handler is a fair and complete? test. These elements include:
? The dog must leave the handler and fetch sheep that are some distance away;
? The dog must take control of the sheep and bring them to the handler;
? It is against the dog's instinct to drive the sheep away from the handler so an? away drive? is a good test and should be included;
? The dog and handler should be able to combine to move the sheep into a confined space, typically a pen.
Other popular test elements that are often added include:
? The dog must separate the group into two groups in a controlled way in accordance with the instructions from the judge. This is known as shedding.
? Most trials include a cross drive where the dog is required to move the sheep in a controlled way in a straight line from one side of the field to the other in front of the handler but some distance away from them.
In most competitions the dog will be required to do the fetching and driving tests on their own. During these test elements the handler must remain at a stake positioned during the layout of the trial course. During the shedding and penning the handler usually leaves the stake and works with the dog to achieve the task.
The most popular scoring system works as follows:
? A judge watches each run and assigns a score based on their judgment.
? Each test element is assigned a maximum score. For example there may be 10 points for the cast (outrun) and so on.
? Each competitor is assigned the full amount for each element before they start.
? As they negotiate each test element a judge deducts points for each fault. For example during a drive the judge may deduct points when the sheep move off line. During each element they can only lose as many points as are assigned to that element.
? They must negotiate each element in sequence before proceeding to the next.
? A set amount of time for the whole course is decided on before the start of the trial.
? There is no advantage in completing the course in a short amount of time but if the competitor runs out of time then they will lose all the points for the element they were in the process of completing and all those that they have yet to attempt.
? The competitor's score is the sum of their score for all completed elements.
For most elements the judge focuses on the behavior of the sheep not the dog or handler. Dogs are judged on the efficiency of their work and on qualities of good stockmanship. A dog that needlessly harasses or hurries the sheep will penalized and a dog that bites a sheep may be disqualified.

A dog therapy group in Sudbury is having to turn people away because they do not have enough volunteers.
Magical Paws is a volunteer-run, non-profit pet therapy group that provides the service of therapy dogs to nursing homes, retirement homes and schools.
However, the popular service is having trouble meeting the demand due to a lack of volunteers and dogs.
The coordinator of Magical Paws says it can be difficult work for the animals.
"Dogs are like sponges, they absorb emotion," said Annette Lumbis.
"You're walking down the hall, and there's people there who are depressed. People who have anxiety. There are people who are excited, happy. They pick it up, even if they don't go in their room."
Lumbis said the shortage of volunteers and dogs is largely in part because many people think their pet isn't cut out for the job .But she says that a pet therapy dog doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to have a lot of love to give.
"Some people will say to me, 'Oh I don't know. He's really hyper. He jumps, he does this and that.' And we say, you know, there's no cost to try it out."
Currently the group has 60 dogs and handlers and do 21 visits per month to seniors homes and care facilities.

" Address: 59 Castle Road, Portsmouth, United Kingdom "
The Mint Tea Rooms are a relatively recent addition to Southsea's Castle Road. The first time I paid a visit I was about to go and have lunch with friends somewhere else so could only sample the coffee, which was very good. I was with my son, who ordered a carrot, walnut and hummus wrap which he enjoyed very much. I was also impressed by the fact that he was served loose leaf tea in a traditional teapot with a porcelain cup and saucer. I vowed to go back one day for lunch.
That day came one Saturday in January. It was about 1pm, and the place was about half full. It is a tiny tearoom with about ten tables; there is a counter at the back and a dresser to one side where homemade cakes are displayed along with teapots and other ornaments. Bunting hangs above the counter, and underneath is a banner with the advice "Keep calm and have a cupcake." The Mint Tea Rooms are a place where it is easy to get away from life's stresses and relax in a calm atmosphere. Music plays at a volume that could not disturb conversation.
As well as serving a huge variety of teas in traditional teapots and porcelain cups, they offer coffee, hot chocolate and soft drinks. The menu consists of breakfasts, jacket potatoes, sandwiches, soup, quiche and frittata. Sandwiches can take the form of a wrap or a traditional sandwich on white or brown bread. Smaller size sandwiches are offered for children. Tuna and mackerel are among the sandwich fillings, but there are no red meat or chicken options. Vegetarian choices are plentiful. Locally sourced and organic products are used as far as possible.
The Mint Tea Rooms are owned and run by a couple who had the help of one of their mums on that particular day. They are very friendly and polite and genuinely interested in offering healthy, homemade food. My son wanted to order a pot of organic green tea and I decided I would share it with him. Unfortunately they had run out, so we ordered ginger tea instead. To eat I chose the special of the day, chick peas with cumin, spinach and couscous. My son went for a grilled haloumi and salad wrap.
The tea came in a large white porcelain teapot; on this occasion it was made with teabags. A small jug of milk was brought, which we didn't use, and a porcelain bowl of sugar with a delightful pair of silver tongs. The cups and saucers were, of course, porcelain with a rose design. I decided to try the tea without sugar and it was delicious.
The food arrived very soon after that. My couscous was served in a small bowl, and the chick peas came in a covered ceramic pot, both on a large plate. I decided to spoon the couscous into the chick peas little by little. There was just the right amount of sauce, and the dish was spicy without being overly so. I didn't regret my choice at all, and my son was equally happy with his haloumi wrap.
Neither of us was completely full so we decided to try a piece of tempting homemade cake. On my previous visit I had spotted chocolate and Guinness cake, but that day the choice was from apple and ginger, lemon drizzle or banana loaf. They all looked gorgeous, but we both decided that apple and ginger would go well with our pot of ginger tea which had been topped up with hot water. It turned out to be an excellent choice. There was just a sprinkling of sugar on top, and the cake was a beautiful consistency; the small pieces of ginger inside gave plenty of extra flavour.
Our bill came to £12.90 which was extremely reasonable. Of course we added a tip, as service was first rate; every so often we would be asked if everything was to our liking, and it certainly was. The only disadvantage is that payment has to be made in cash, but that didn't pose a problem for us.
The Mint Tea Rooms are open from 10am to 5pm every day except Sunday. There is on-street parking and disabled access. It is possible to hire the Mint Tea Rooms for private events such as baby showers or children's parties.
I sincerely hope that the Mint Tea Rooms will survive. They are situated a stone's throw from Southsea common and about five minutes' walk from Palmerston Road shopping precinct, but there is plenty of competition in the area. I don't think, however, that any other establishment nearby tries to confine themselves to local, organic products. For anyone who is interested in eating healthily in a quiet, welcoming environment, it is worth going a little out of the way of the shops to visit the treasure that is the Mint Tea Rooms.

I've had my DL4 for a few years now, never had any problems with it but I have recently started becoming interested in the Strymon Timeline. High price tag, but it sounds really damn nice. If I sold my DL4, would the Timeline be able to do everything that the DL4 can but better? Would I be better off holding onto my DL4?
Oh and I play music that sounds kind of like Snowmine and Bravestation. A good amount of post-rock type stuff too.

Mark is set to return to Northwestern next year.
Northwestern running back Venric Mark was expected to be one of the Big Ten's top running backs in 2013, but an ankle injury sidelined him for most of the season.
But the Wildcats received some good news for 2014 this week, as Mark was granted a fifth-year of eligibility, and the Texas native will return to Northwestern next year.
Mark rushed for 1,366 yards and 12 touchdowns and caught 20 passes for 104 yards in 2012.
He was also a huge factor on special teams in 2012, averaging 18.7 yards per punt return and taking two back for scores.
Considering Mark is listed at 5-foot-8 and 175 pounds, he isn't a player that can handle 300 carries. However, having the senior back in the lineup is a huge plus for Northwestern's offense. Mark should be in the mix for All-Big Ten honors in 2014.
After a conference season to forget, Northwestern gets great news for '14 - Venric Mark granted an extra year http://t.co/DmDLOrh0r9— Jeremy Fowler (@JFowlerCBS) January 22, 2014
This just in: #Northwestern RB Venric Mark granted fifth year of eligibility. Great news.— Brent Yarina (@BTNBrentYarina) January 21, 2014

Rubin "Hurricane" Carter, the boxer whose wrongful murder conviction became an international symbol of racial injustice, has died at 76.
John Artis, a longtime friend and caregiver, said Carter died in his sleep Sunday. Carter had been stricken with prostate cancer in Toronto, the New Jersey native's adopted home.
Carter spent 19 years in prison for three murders at a tavern in Paterson, New Jersey, in 1966. He was convicted alongside Artis in 1967 and again in a new trial in 1976. (AP)

In an OHL season dominated by the London Knights, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise that the London Knights not only dominated the league's all-star teams but that Dale Hunter was named coach of the year.
Hunter will receive the Matt Leyden Trophy for the second year in succession after leading the Knights to an OHL-record 59-7-2-0 record.
London opened the season by setting a Canadian Hockey League record of 31 games without a loss.
The team set numerous other records, including most wins and points, becoming the first in the OHL to record back-to-back seasons with at least 50 wins and 100 points.
Hunter was first-team all-star coach and was joined on that team by three of his players -- forwards Dylan Hunter and Corey Perry and defenceman Danny Syvret.
Also on the first all-star team are Jeff Carter, a centre from London with the Soo Greyhounds; Kitchener Rangers defenceman Andrew Benoit, and Mississauga IceDogs goalie Michael Ouzas.
The Knights placed both their goalies on all-star teams -- Adam Dennis on the second team and Gerald Coleman on the third.
Dale Hunter, who isn't keen on being in the spotlight when it comes to awards, would prefer to credit the team's success to others.
"It's always special. It's so tough to win," he said. "But it takes the great team that we have. It takes everyone involved. From the players to the scouts doing the drafting.
"They pound the bushes to get us good players. We wind up with good players and it makes it easier for the coaches.
"When you win the coach's award, it's really a team thing."
Hunter was thrilled for his players who made the all-star team.
"I think it's awesome," he said. "We had so many good players on our team. It's a credit to Corey, Dylan, Danny, Adam, Gerald.
"When you look at it we could have had even more. (Bryan Rodney) had a great year, so did (Rob Schremp) and David (Bolland). It was tough, really tough. We have a good team and we play as a team. That's what I'm most proud of. We aren't individuals. We play as a team."
Perry is making his second straight appearance on the first all-star team. Carter and Benoit were second teamers and Dylan Hunter was on the third team last year.
Ballots were cast by OHL general managers.
Ouzas was also selected goaltender of the year, beating out Dennis and Coleman.
Coleman has had one of the most successful seasons for a goaltender in OHL history. Yet despite having lost only two games all year he continues to be overlooked when it comes to awards. He was passed over when it came to getting a chance to play in the all-star game this season.
Knights goalie coach Dave Rook is amazed. He was voted by coaches as the second-most underrated player in the league.
"Gerald is focused on winning the Memorial Cup and making it to the NHL," Rook said. "I guess when he's playing in the NHL, he'll be the one who has the last laugh."

Robinson out to spoil Williams party
Teenager Harry Robinson is ready to "expect the unexpected" from one of Wales's greatest players when he makes his Test debut on Saturday.
While Cardiff Blues prospect Robinson arrives on the international scene, 35-year-old Shane Williams will bow out after an immense career highlighted by him scoring a Wales record 58 tries. Williams wears the Barbarians' famous black and white hoops this weekend.
"I am glad I got to play against him for the Blues against the Ospreys earlier this season, but I think playing against him on the international stage I will be a bit petrified!" Robinson said. "I kind of know what to expect from Shane - you expect the unexpected. It's going to be a great test for me."
He added: "I try to almost play like Shane, stepping away from tackles and such, so he has been a big inspiration to the way I play.
"He is an incredible player, and he is finishing his career off on such a high note, but I am going to try to spoil the party!
"I don't know if it is written in the stars that he's meant to score a try against Wales, but I will be doing everything I can to try to stop him."

Let's get one thing out of the way: I l-l-l-l-love Project Runway. Every Wednesday from 10-11 p.m. is sort of a mini-weekend at Casa Slezak, except for no one is allowed to speak, and also the phone gets turned off. Plus, there aren't as many mojitos. That said, if I might make one teeny suggestion to the show's producers — aside from "Bring back Kors!" We've had enough of the Kors Lite, no? — it's this: Let's call a moratorium on Project Runway's group challenges. I know you're with me, folks; a lot of you have been making the very same plea on our TV Watch message boards today — and with good reason.
For one thing, group challenges punish the designers with the most innovative sketches. It's simple math, really: Last night, there were 12 competitors, four of their designs were produced, and two of 'em landed in the bottom two, with one going home. In other words, become a team leader, and get a 25 percent chance of being the next evictee. Wouldn't it almost make more sense to cough up a lame drawing, and guarantee safe passage to the next round? (Or no sketch at all, as Angela did during the Miss Universe gown competition?) Worse still, viewers get punished during group challenges, too. Last night, instead of experiencing the joy of watching 12 distinct outfits float down the runway, we only got to see four. Booo!
Okay then, rant over. I now return to my Project Runway happy place, wrapped in one of Laura's faux-fur dreams, with lots of sequins and bugle beads courtesy of Kayne. Robert and Michael and Alison are there, too, 'cause they're all awfully adorable. Are you with me, PopWatchers?

There is much confusion on what datum is assumed and what datum transformations are used inside GPS processing software. This presentation addresses the confusion within the 3 main GPS enabled workflows in the National Park Service.
1. The reliable, trusted Garmin PND, usually the first location aware device on the scene.
2. The mapping grade submeter GPS suite. Represented by the Trimble mapping devices providing not only submeter solutions, but tieing mapping and surveying projects together in a common National Spatial Reference frame.
3. Lastly, the ArcPad software workflows, often found in a plane, or on an ATV providing instant GIS layer creation where ever you are.
We will explore shifters between WGS84 and NAD83 reference datums popular in the software today, and will hopefully guide you thru an often confusing, array of translators taking you back and forth. As this title slide shows, we hope you won't get run over by the GPS crew this summer who THINKS they are in one reference frame, while you as a GIS manager ASSUMES they are in another reference frame.
This confusion causes pain and suffering when metadata is not passed between the field and office.
Spatial-Ed provides you with the resources, support and online community to help you plan and complete a geospatial project that meets your project goals.

At first glance it looks amazing, and when I saw a friend trialling it it appeared that this was indeed an alternative to night vision.
Having raved about it my girlfriend bought me one, which was a nice surprise!
Costing around £300 I couldn't personally justify it myself so that would be my first criticism.

Just a follow up on my own review - the above still stands, but having tried various LED and Halide lamps I can confirm the ND3 is still the best lamp on the market! There is absoultely no diffusion of light which makes the image really crisp in your scope. Stuck it on a mates .243 a while ago and foxing at 200+ yards was easy :)
The other lamps I've tried have all been at least 3 times the size and a lot heavier. Having used it all spring and summer (with good quality batteries) I've had no issues with the temperature - I'm sure the winter will affect it again but on balance I can live with this!
If you can live with the cost I'd reccomend you go out and get yourself one!
Written on: 21/12/2011
OK so I've tried it in the winter - it doesn't work!!! I refuse to use elastic bands and handwarmers like BSA suggest... so I've just re-comissioned my LED Ray and will be using that until it's a little warmer!
I still rate ND3's as the best lamp on the market, but in hindsight I'd rather have had the "SUb-Zero" version which doesn't suffer the cold problems!

An 18-year-old man was held without bail Monday during an arraignment charging him with the fatalDorchester parade shootingof a 26-year-old woman who investigators describe as an innocent bystander.
Keith Williams hid from view at Dorchester Municipal Court Monday afternoon, where his defense attorney did not object to the prosecution's request to hold the murder suspect without bail.
At about 8:17 a.m. Saturday, police responded to the sound of gunshots near Blue Hill Avenue and Charlotte Street and found Dawnn Jaffier on the ground with a life-threatening gunshot to the head. She was taken to Boston Medical Center were she was pronounced dead. She had been attending theJouvert Parade--part of the annual Caribbean Carnival celebration.
Prosecutors said police later caught up with three individuals they saw running from the scene. Two of them were interviewed and released, while Williams, who police said attempted to hide a 357 revolver in a private resident's yard, was arrested and initially charged with unlawful possession of a firearm and unlawful possession of ammunition. His charges were later upgraded to murder.
Investigators said a second woman, 20-year-old Leila Fulton, who was blocks away from where the shots were fired, suffered a minor injury when her leg was grazed by a bullet.
Jaffier's family sat in the front row as Williams was arraigned Monday, wearing sunglasses and appearing distraught. They offered no remarks following the court appearance.
Jaffier was a community partner at the Tobin School in Roxbury and the Hennigan School in Jamaica Plain.
Following her death, Boston Public Schools released a statement saying students called her "Coach Dawnn."
"They looked up to her, and so did we. Dawnn was a loving, generous young woman who made it her mission to improve the lives of others," the statement said.

I was out running errands and happened to be by 96th St. around lunch time. I love Thai food and generally like Jasmine Thai, so I ventured there for their lunch specials. They are located at 96th St. between Allisonville Rd. and Keystone Ave. (closer to Allisonville) at 4825 E. 96th St. in the River Ridge Crossing strip mall:
Here's the restaurant front:
Pleasant, you'll see some of the typical Thai restaurant hanging fabric art and the cat with the waving paw. Not exceptional, not terrible. It was clean and tidy, and I'm happy with that for a strip mall restaurant.
Pretty fast, attentive service. I've been to Jasmine Thai probably 10 times and service has never been an issue. All the waiters and waitresses are pretty good. Drinks are refilled quickly and they seem to accommodating, but then, I've never had any really odd requests beyond, "Can I have some salt?"
The lunch menu is a smaller version of their evening menu and all entrees come with a side of your choice of spring roll, salad, or soup (Thom Yum). The lunch entrees are priced at $6.99-$7.99 and feature the more popular Thai dishes (such as the curry dishes, the popular noodle dishes like Pad Thai, and others such as Pad Kra Prow). I am a pretty light eater, so the lunch portion of the red curry with extra vegetables I ordered is enough for 2 meals. I also had the spring roll (1 is served with a bit of sweet and sour sauce) as the appetizer.
The flavor is very good, not overly sweet like some curries can be. It's not the best red curry I've ever had and I felt it was lacking some essential ingredient that I couldn't put my finger on. It was almost there...but not quite. I ordered medium on their 5 point scale (mild, medium, medium hot, hot, Thai hot). The veggies were cooked to the point of being crisp-tender, and I liked that. As for the spring roll, it was a little rubbery. I wondered if had been pre-cooked and then re-heated. It had some shredded cabbage and carrots in it and was pleasant at best. I'd go with the Thom Yum soup next time.
I ordered a diet Coke with lemon along with my meal and the total was $9.53, $12.00 after tip. I felt that was reasonable for the amount of food I got.
Since I've already told you I've been here about 10 times, you can bet I'll be here again. This is my second favorite Thai restaurant in Indy and it's the closer one to my home (My favorite is Thai Spice across from the Greenwood Mall). I would say it's very good Thai food.

I'm wrapping up my training at an acting conservatory and getting ready to venture out into the "real world." I know that no matter how much training or talent you have, it doesn't mean diddly-squat unless you know people.
Recently, I've been going about making connections by emailing or Facebooking directors and other actors whom I don't know personally, just to forge connections. This doesn't amount to anything except a forced, awkward communication that probably repels them and that disappoints me. I've been noticing that the best connections to be had are the ones that involve friendship, and in some cases even sexual interest. Yet how does a person in my position develop these connections naturally and productively? What avenues are there for me to pursue to ease my way into having a connection without appearing to be an overly ambitious opportunist?
—Friend Requested
New York City
Dear Friend Requested:
I'm hoping I'm misreading you here, but it sounds like, among other things, you're asking my advice on how to sleep your way to an acting career. We give all kinds of advice here at The Working Actor, and it's always our desire to help. But it would be hard for me to advise you on how to pursue this path, for several reasons.
First, I've never known anyone who was involved in such a tryst, so I wouldn't know how to tell you to go about finding the influential partners you seek. Second, I don't think it's a wise path to pursue. I think the cost to one's self-esteem is too high. Third—and perhaps more to the point—I don't think it's generally effective as a method of career advancement. You might find that promised results aren't delivered, or that allegedly "connected" individuals who are interested in bedding you aren't quite as connected as they claimed to be. Even if they are, they're probably not going to put themselves in the vulnerable position of handing you a juicy acting job unless they sincerely like your acting.
Van Badham, a playwright, former university lecturer in theater, and current literary manager of the Finborough Theatre in London, says she "watched several generations of young actors, writers, and directors leave the cozy nest of university and attempt to fly straight into the big time of professional life." And she often found herself advising her students on the very subject of your letter. "Consider what giving yourself away sexually does to your brand," Badham told them. "Where you see someone as a person of influence who can get you ahead, if you sleep with them they see you as desperate, powerless, and manipulable…. Remember, the best way of getting ahead is to hone your talent and work your ass off. Reliable, professional, and talented will always win the job ahead of sexually opportunistic."
Now, I know that your question was also about seeking out nonsexual industry friendships, but as you said—and you're absolutely right—whenever connections are manufactured rather than occurring organically, they feel awkward. If you're making friends with people solely because of what they can do for you, there's a good chance they'll be savvy enough to know they're being schmoozed. And again, here's the problem: It doesn't work. I don't think the person with whom you've created a forced friendship will think, "Wow, what a fine actor. I want to mentor him and support his career." He or she may do you a favor or two, but I think you'd be disappointed overall.
I have some good friends who are in positions to assist me in my career. They include producers, directors, casting people, and even a celebrity or two. But we're able to be friends because I genuinely like them and I'm not asking for anything. I'm really not. On those rare occasions when one of these people connects me with an opportunity, it's always a surprise. Once—and only once—my sister, who's a producer, set up an audition for me. That was the only time that a relationship provided a career advantage. Mostly, my influential friends and I all go out of our way not to cross those lines.
So here's the puzzle—and I think you already see this: How do you make influential friends without doing it for the benefits of their influence?
Well, one answer is to just be friendly to everyone and socialize whenever the opportunities arise. You don't know who leads to whom, so just be a good friend. Be a giver, not a taker. When you meet people, don't look for your earliest chance to hand them your résumé or ask for help finding an agent. Instead, ask them about themselves. Take an interest. Do nice things, and don't ask anything in return. Remember, these people are probably asked for favors a lot. You want to stand out? Behave differently by not asking for anything. People can smell hunger, so put the potential benefits of these friendships completely out of your mind. Focus on the friendship, and benefits may come.
Be a joiner. If there's a cause you believe in, get involved. Do a walk for charity. Volunteer your time. Join clubs and groups—anything that reflects who you are. It makes you more well-rounded and may connect you with business contacts who share your pet causes and interests. Joining theater companies and actor groups is also a good idea, as it broadens your circle.
Another way to make authentic connections is by interning at a casting office, talent agency, or management company. Seeing people every day gives you the opportunity to get to know each other personally and establish a rapport. Or get a job assisting a writer or producer. You'll meet and interact with their contacts in the course of your duties, so you won't need to create reasons to approach them.
Finally, a thought: I disagree with your assertion that talent and training are worthless, and I think you're far too young to be that cynical. Sure, these things aren't guarantees of success, but then again, what is? If I were you, I wouldn't give up so quickly on the idea of plying your trade honestly and seeing what happens. There are many solid careers that developed that way. Talent and training may be exactly the keys to the doors you're trying to open, so don't be so hasty to dismiss them. What's more, moving forward in your career by virtue of your talent feels a hell of a lot better than getting a role because you wormed your way into a false friendship.

Milt Stegall didn't want the ball.
All he wanted was some production.
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers slotback was in a huff in the first half of yesterday's Banjo Bowl against the Saskatchewan Roughriders. The Bombers had some fine field position, but their drives were stalling like a beat-up Pinto.
So when Stegall came off the field in the second quarter, he gave quarterbacks coach Mike Working an earful. Was Stegall pulling a Keyshawn Johnson, saying just give him the damn ball?
"That's not my way," Stegall said. "I knew people would think that because I was complaining coming off the field, but it's more frustrating with the fact that we're not producing. It's not the fact that I'm not getting the ball."
Receivers coach Bob Dyce, seeing his star slotback was upset from his perch in the press box, got Working to put Stegall on the headset and told him to calm down. Stegall had one catch for 10 yards in the first half, but he had six grabs for 100 yards in the second.
EJECTION: They finally caught the culprit. Last week, Bomber DE Tom Canada took a late roughing call for retaliating. Yesterday, he was often seen complaining to officials after plays.
"I was getting raped out there, and it's frustrating," Canada said. "I know the refs can't see everything on the field, but some of the stuff that was happening was a little bit blatant. ... I didn't get the calls I wanted, but karma came around, the guy got thrown out of the game, he's $1,000 in the hole and I'm happy."
Saskatchewan OL Charles Thomas was ejected for rough play late in the match.
PAYING HOMAGE: Stegall is as quick with his feet as he is with his story-telling. Turtle Man was asked how he managed to somehow put his right foot down in bounds on his 13-yard touchdown grab in the third quarter.
"Back in the day I took some tap dancing lessons with Sammy Davis Jr.," Stegall said. "And he said 'When you get that opportunity, don't make me look bad, Milt. I'm gonna be watching from the heavens.'
"So I just remembered when I was up in the air, 'Sammy Davis, Sammy Davis.' So I got the foot down, and I want to give a shout-out to Sammy Davis, because he taught me a lot of things when I was younger."
LATE HITS: Bombers RB Charles Roberts moved past Calgary's Joffrey Reynolds and is now the league's rushing leader with 1,054 yards. It's Roberts' fifth straight 1,000-yard rushing season, which breaks his own club record ... Bombers OL Mike Abou-Mechrek suffered a high-ankle sprain yesterday and could miss a couple weeks.

Hugh Jackman announced on Instagram yesterday that he had skin cancer removed from his nose. He posted the photo below with the caption "Deb said to get the mark on my nose checked. Boy, was she right! I had a basil cell carcinoma. Please don't be foolish like me. Get yourself checked. And USE sunscreen!!!"
Khloe Kardashian definitely can't be happy about this one. TMZ got their hands on a video of Lamar Odom and his sidekick, in what looks to be a drugged out freestyle rap video. He talks about cheating on Khloe and making "the pain go away." The video is pretty eye opening and definitely makes me think that Lamar shouldn't be going back to the NBA, he should be going to rehab to get clean.
TMZ is also reporting that Brooke Hogan has called off her engagement to Dallas Cowboy football player, Phil Costa. The two got engaged back in June but sources says she called off the engagement because things were moving too fast and she wants to focus on her music career.

WITH THE OSCARS' red carpet rolled up for another season, it's apparently time for cartoon-based characters to again rule the box office.
The "300" franchise (based on comics by Frank Miller) and the CGI-animated "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" (based on characters, of course, from the Rocky and Bullwinkle series of the '60s) dominated this weekend's moviegoing, according to studio estimates released Sunday. Final numbers are due Monday.
Seven years after the original "300" slayed all comers at the box office, "300: Rise of an Empire" won the weekend, grossing $45.1-million in its domestic debut. "300" was based on Miller's fictional take on the Battle of Thermopylae in his same-named 1998 graphic novel with Lynn Varley. "Rise of an Empire" has its roots in Miller's yet-to-be-released graphic novel "Xerxes."
The Olney, Md.-born Miller — who has a writing credit on both "300" films — next co-directs the upcoming sequel "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" with Robert Rodriguez.
"Rise of an Empire" also grossed an impressive $87.8 million in foreign markets — and has already reached $132.9-million total. The blood-soaked "300" franchise "translates to virtually every culture. Every country can appreciate the visuals of these movies," Paul Dergarabedian of the box-office tracker Rentrak told the Associated Press.
Warner Bros. exec Jeff Goldstein also cited the "female empowerment" appeal of the new film's Eva Green ("Casino Royale," "The Dreamers"), who will also star in this year's "Sin City" sequel.
Fox's "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" was second for the weekend, grossing $32.5-million in its domestic debut. That's a fair opening for a film that needs to really perform; it reportedly cost $140-million to make. "Mr. Peabody" grossed $65.8-million in overseas markets — for a total take of $98.3-million.
"Mr. Peabody" had to take on another film with strong family-demo appeal: Warner Bros.' "The LEGO Movie" was fourth this weekend with $11 million — and has now grossed $360.6-million worldwide.
[Hokey Smoke! Our Top-15 'Rocky & Bullwinkle' Quotes (*RIP, Alex Anderson)]
* "300: Rise of an Empire" is the second biggest domestic opening ever for a Dark Horse comic, topping Fox's "Alien vs. Predator" ($38.29-million debut), and trailing only its series predecessor: "300" bowed in with a muscular $70.89-million tally.
* "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" had the second-best opening for an animated film adapted from TV, according to BoxOfficeMojo.com (whose stats for this list begin in 1980). Towering in this category is still Fox's "The Simpsons Movie" ($74-million). Depending on Monday's final numbers, however,"Mr. Peabody" could yet dip behind the third-place film: Paramount's "The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie" ($32.01-million).
* "Mr. Peabody" had the fourth-biggest opening ever for a dog flick (dating from 1974) — trailing only "Scooby-Doo," "Marley & Me" and 1996's "101 Dalmatians."
* "Mr. Peabody" also is No. 18 on the list of DreamWorks Animation openings, according to BoxOfficeMojo.com. Tops is "Shrek the Third" ($121.6-million).
The weekend's domestic Top-10, according to Rentrak:
1. "300: Rise of an Empire," $45.1 million;
2. "Mr. Peabody & Sherman," $32.5 million;
3. "Non-Stop," $15.4 million;
4. "The LEGO Movie," $11 million;
5. "Son of God," $10 million;
6. "The Monuments Men," $3.1 million;
7. "3 Days to Kill," $3.1 million;
8. "Frozen," $3 million;
9. "12 Years a Slave," $2.2 million;
10. "Ride Along," $2 million.

Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida
My mom has a life estate and when she passes the deed say that the property becomes mine. Her will says that when she dies her possessions are split among my brothers and I. Which instruction would be carried out first? Is the house mine and THEN all else is split, or is the house and all split?

Does the deed give you title now? It depends on how the deed is worded?

Barry Stein De Cardenas, Freixas, Stein & Zachary
The deed titled as life estate to mom and remainder interest to you is effective upon death. The probate Estate only accepts assets she owns at death and then transfers those as per the will. The house, if titled with remainder interest to you, will pass outside the will and Probate.

Some of you know me, but many of you do not. I have been with Pet talk for a few years now. Slowly I have become more of a lurker then a poster, but I do check the board everyday for new information and updates on all my old friends.
I wanted to share some very exiting news with you guys. A gal at my work offered me an internship with her in Alaska at a Museum of National History. I had to fill out a big application, do some phone interviews with the owners but I am finally 100% excepted into the program!! I'm leaving May 26th and won't be back till late September or, if I'm loving it there, I may not come back till late November! My room and board are all paid for plus I get $75 a week for food from the museum. I am probably going to be getting a small part time job that I only have to work like 20 hours a week at just so I have a little more income.
My mom is going to be watching my dogs and my rabbits while I'm away. While it breaks my heart to leave them and it makes me cry every time I think about the fact that they most likely will not greet me like normal when I get back, I really do feel this is something I need to do. My life has been so blah lately that I'm exited to have this HUGE change come along. I will write more often and try to keep you guys updated on how things go. The museum will have wireless internet so I will be able to log onto Pet talk and say hi.
Wish me luck guys, Im so scared to leave my babies and my home behind for 4 months. I really hope this turns out to be all I expect it to.
PS: Sorry I wrote a book.

Tahoe Power Equipment. Just just like the technology I wrote about inside my solar tower article, lots of this "new" technology is actually old hat. Diesel cars end up being economical inside long run regarding fuel consumption. This includes fire, theft, flooding, power issues, telephone problems, internet connectivity, terrorism and disease etc. Do you would like to become a mobile or other seasonal or on-going go away location for used cooking oils. On the opposite hand, the used generators are really inexpensive.
Connect the energy cord and turnoff the circuit breaker allowing the generator to warm up.

COLUMBUS, Ga. -- You haven't been body slammed by Stonecold Steve Austin -- you just feel that way.
Your legs ache. Your neck, shoulder and arms, they smart a little bit too.
Such, you figure, is the price for a fun afternoon of water skiing. But it doesn't have to be that way.
"People forget that water skiing is an athletic activity," said Joe Kostuch, director of physical therapy at the Human Performance and Rehabilitation Center in the Hughston Sports Medicine Center in Columbus, Ga. "There are things you need to do not only to prevent hurting yourself seriously but also to keep away from smaller problems."
Kostuch said he actually sees more folks who have been banged up after falling off personal watercraft than from water skiing accidents.
"There aren't as many of the serious leg injuries you get with snow skiing because, for one thing, you can lose water skis a lot easier," Kostuch said, "but you still can suffer some lower back pain and have trouble with the shoulders and arms from all the pulling."
To be in good physical shape, of course, is a plus, but whether you are or not, Kostuch advises warming up before you put on skis.
Greg Brannen couldn't agree more.
"I have all my skiers do that," said Brannen, beach manager and ski director at Callaway in Pine Mountain, Ga.
It is one of many tips he gives them.
Another is to be aware of their surroundings, especially if other boats and skiers are in the area.
"Remember, boats don't have brakes," he said. Brannen also tells them to check for damaged skis, frayed ropes and loose screws in bindings.

Is it worth the investment ...( you already know they don't feed reliably ...) ... so no, not in my opinion ..../and the cost is irrelevent to me...
the ultimate in defensive or fighting shotguns ...not in my view .../but then the last thing I'd depend on for defense is a shotgun anyway. Handguns - if you can shoot effectively - are way more versatile ...
I think you need to consider what you need for "Defense" ....vs an all out "gun battle" ... Most of the experts say a Defensive situation is over in a few seconds ....so having more than 3 rounds in a shotgun may not matter...
If you really want a top end Fighting shotgun - look at the Benelli M-4 ...but if you don't like the $1,000 price tag on the Saiga ...you are really not going to like the $ 1,650 or so price tag on the M-4 ....( but sometimes you get what you pay for ). Buying a shotgun, or any gun, that you know will not feed reliably - makes little to no sense to me....
Here is a link to the M-4 / at least check it out ....

PLEASANT HILL — Safeway believes a new layout at its gas station on Contra Costa Boulevard will put an end to the long lines that have vexed motorists.
Safeway plans to add four double-sided gas pumps to the station, bringing the total number to 10. The company's revised circulation plan calls for vehicles to enter the gas station from Contra Costa Boulevard instead of the existing entrance north of the station on Golf Club Road. By removing up to 21 parking spaces, a dozen cars could wait in four orderly lines for a spot at a pump.
"The traffic analysis is still in progress but we believe this solution will eliminate the existing congestion," company spokeswoman Wendy Gutshall wrote in an email.
Long lines have been a hallmark of the gas station since it opened in February 2012. Safeway typically sells gas cheaper than the national oil companies, and customers who participate in Safeway's rewards program can save up to $1 per gallon based on how much they spend at the grocery store.
The city, Safeway and Sunvalley mall have been working to fix the circulation problems before the Sept. 12 opening of Nordstrom Rack, which sits directly across the parking lot from the gas station. Safeway plans to begin construction before the store opens, according to Gutshall.
Currently, the line for gas begins as one lane on Golf Club Road, becomes two informal lines in the parking lot and finally divides into four lanes before cars reach one of six double-sided gas pumps. "Fuel ambassadors" direct traffic and try to keep the procession to the pumps somewhat orderly.
Although Safeway has proposed removing seven parking spaces to create space for vehicles to line up parallel to Contra Costa Boulevard, the city prefers removing 21 spaces to extend the queuing area from 92 feet to 148 feet. Gutshall said Safeway is open to doing so if the traffic study recommends it.
Michael Fenley, Sunvalley mall general manager, believes the new layout will vastly improve the conditions in the parking lot.
"I think that we are managing the issue, but it's clear that significant changes to the entire traffic flow are required to solve the problem," Fenley said. "We're just managing a situation that is not satisfactory."
Rod Wui, Pleasant Hill senior civil engineer, said Safeway's plan is generally what the city was looking for, but he pointed out a potential drawback.
"Typically, when you add filing stations, you will create more demand."

Discussion in 'Android Devices' started by Mastermind278, Feb 7, 2010.
Try long press on the word, choose select text, then press the swype key.
Okay, here's what seems to work - long press after the word to delete, choose "select text" and you get a selection tool for the cursor, then you can slide it to select the word, then pressing the swype key pops up a dialogue asking if you want to delete the word from the dictionary. Seems to work fine, though it can be a little tricky selecting the word you want as you can only select in one direction - although you can also use the d-pad(?) to select. I was hoping that there was a way, double tapping or with a long press option, that it would automatically select the word. Thanks for the input - pun intended
EDIT: After poking around on the Swype beta forums, I learned that you can only remove words from the dictionary that you have added yourself - this wasn't clear, and is why sometimes it seems not to work. So for instance, I will probably never use the word "erl", but it's in the dictionary to stay. Otherwise, the method above should work for any words you have added yourself.
They do seem to read the boards over on the swype site, so you may want to post a suggestion.
Good call, I should make a point of doing that - I think they're doing a great job with this so far ...
I used to dread having to text people with the samsung keyboard. I even tried better keyboard . Swype keyboard has been god send specially on the behold 2 . I was lucky to have jumped on the beta as soon as possible. It deserves to be on the top 5 best android apps and should be standard in 2.1 android and beyond. my iphone buddies dislike that my phone can do what their phone can't
Now all i need is 2.1 android on the behold 2 and i will be more than happy.
you can find the apk online if you missed the beta
Oh k guys i'm kinda new at this so a little recap how to download APK.....
yeah I'm a week in too. But this one is easy. download the file, you'll have to hunt for the one that fits the behold or it'll say wrong screen size. then put it on your phone with the usb cable. Download AppInstaller form the market (free) and when you open it, till recognize the apk as an install file. From there the instructions are on the sites that have the file.
I have been looking all over for the swype app and cant find it. Does anyone know where I can get it from?
Anyone needs swipe?? Look at the bottom.
Note: I will sometimes delay a few hours or a day because of my duties and responsibilities, but you can always count that I will respond.
I do not guarantee that I will be checking this post regular but please send the email and I will send it to you.
The Swype app I have provided was a trial that expired yesterday (20100514). Now if you all want to have a working Swype for BH2 (and I don't ensure that it will work on another platform, please refer to: http://androidforums.com/samsung-behold-2/78910-did-your-swype-expire.html
i love swype, there have been times where i think i might have been totally off and the word comes up im like this is awesome,lol
question though..is there another way to space i thought i seen it on the tut but i cant seem to find it now, so im just hittin the space key, kinda slows things down just a bit.
It automatically adds a space after each word. Or when you use a comma or period, you can just swype the space key after it.
Thanks I really love this keyboard.!!!
megabite could you send me that too? email firstname.lastname@example.com
Thank you very much, mastermind
hey megabiteg, just wondering... what version are you sending out?
Version 22.214.171.12430.t Thats the last one I found for our type of phones that works great. Its multilangage.
ohh okayy. that's the one i'm using now. i found out through my obsession of flashing that there's only a certain amount of times you can install the beta version haha
Well that limit must be more than 50 because that's close to the amount of times i have installed my swype. lol
loll more than 50? ok i know i didnt reinstall it that many times haha, sucks for me i guess
I'm using 5228, but I found an English only version which saves a few megs if space is an issue for you. I think I found it on XDA.
I was one that got their latest version before they closed it down. The one before expired and now I can't live without it
hi megabiteg, could u please send me swype apk to firstname.lastname@example.com thank u. I got the wrong one error not for 32ox480
could you also send me the file please? -> email@example.com thanks

Kid Rock and Sean Penn teamed up for a new short film called "Americans," which finds them making fun at their opposing viewpoints and becoming fast friends over all the things that make this country great.
The movie includes humor, including one scene where Kid Rock buys a Prius. Another shows Penn wearing a NASCAR T-shirt. In the end the point they make is serious: Americans need to end their angry political exchanges before they tear this country apart.
The goal of the film is to tear down the one-dimensional political stereotypes portrayed by the media by confronting them head on. It reminds us that what really matters is that we're all Americans, with diverse thoughts, opinions and stances on issues. We are millions of unique, individual parts, the sum of which comprise a whole that is the shining beacon of freedom throughout the world.
The film reminds us to be proud of our differences, and to never forget that we're all in this together as Americans.

So here's the problem: I have extremely tight budget this summer and a lot of occasions to celebrate within my close family.
My baby sister is graduating from high school with a diploma in nursing (here in Finland we have the opportunity to get a degree in any field to be able to work and not have to go to college after high school). She is still living home with my parents and she plans to move out on her own next year.
My other sister (with her husband and two kids) is going to come visit us from abroad. For their family I would like to give something useful. My sister is a stay-at-home mom and her husband works in sales for a big company. Their kids are ages 4 (a boy) and 7 months (a girl).
My grandparents live abroad as well and are coming to see us this summer. They are a classy couple in their 70's. They have a huge newly renovated house and a love for antiques.
So..since I don't have a lot of money to spend I thought I could make something personal to everyone. Any ideas?
