KAPALUA, Hawaii - The serenity of the moment didn't last long for Vijay Singh.

Staring down the lush green fairway into the Pacific Ocean, on a day so clear it looked as if he could hit the island of Molokai on the horizon, Singh's drive instead ballooned into a big slice. He quickly turned and scolded a photographer whose camera went off too early.
Then his trainer and caddie, Joey Diovisalvi, walked over to another photographer and told him, "No pictures."
Maui is a wonderful place to relax, but there's no time for that now.
Singh is on top of the world, but it's getting crowded at the top.
"The guys closest to me are the biggest threat," Singh said Wednesday. "But I'm not worried about that. I'm more concerned with what I do. Once you start looking back, you doubt your own game."
The season-opening Mercedes Championships at Kapalua offers the most spectacular views on the PGA Tour, a snapshot of the elite in golf also is breathtaking.
A new season has rarely looked this intriguing.
Singh is the undisputed No. 1 player, coming off a season in which he won nine times, added his third major championship and shattered the PGA Tour record with nearly $11 million.
Tiger Woods and Ernie Els are capable of replacing him quickly if the 41-year-old Fijian can't keep up his amazing pace. Masters champion Phil Mickelson and U.S. Open champion Retief Goosen are poised to make a move.
"This year is going to be exciting," Goosen said. "There will probably be a No. 1 player a few times this year."
Joey Sindelar first joined the PGA Tour in 1984, when Jack Nicklaus and Lee Trevino were not done winning majors and Tom Watson was the man to beat. Curtis Strange was on the verge of becoming a dominant player, and Greg Norman was about to make his first big splash in the majors.
Still, he can't remember a time when so many top players were hitting their stride at the same time.
"It would be like having the best of the '70s, the best of the '80s and the best of the '90s all happening at one time," Sindelar said. "We didn't have that many dominators during those years. There were one or two. Now you've just named five or six. And there's probably more."
It all begins to unfold today when the Mercedes Championships get under way on the Plantation Course at Kapalua with an elite 31-man field comprised of only PGA Tour winners from last year. The only one missing is Mickelson, who elected not to play.
Singh still stands the tallest in the field, an imposing figure with a swing he has grooved from countless hours on the practice range. He won six out of the last eight tournaments he played on tour, and he finished out of the top 10 only once over the final three months.
"There is pressure on me to keep performing the way I've been performing," he said. "I'd like to stake my ground and say, 'I'm still here."'
Woods appears to be back, although that will be determined by his results.
He ended his most troublesome year - one PGA Tour victory, not in contention in any of the majors - by winning the Dunlop Phoenix in Japan and his Target World Challenge in December against a 16-man field in the silly season. But he found the swing key he had been working on with coach Hank Haney, and expectations are high.
Asked if it was similar to 1999, when he finally figured out his swing changes, Woods said, "No. It's better."
"I just feel that the swing is better," he said. "It's hard to explain. I worked my tail off this past year, and the results I had toward the end of the season made it so exciting."

The Cuba Domadores showed once again why they are the team to beat in WSB Season VI with a near-flawless Quarter-Final performance against Mexico Guerreros. With the tie standing at 5-0 to the hosts after Thursday's first leg, the match was settled in uncompromising fashion with a second whitewash on Friday night, setting up a mouthwatering Semi-Final against Uzbek Tigers or Russian Boxing Team.
Cuban maestro Yosbany Veitia Soto was the first in the ring for the hosts and he quickly set about his task, dominating the opening two rounds against the less-experienced Jose Rojas with rapid counter-attacks. A superb combination in the third was enough to win the bout and settle the match, but there was still plenty of boxing talent left to come.
Three-time AIBA World Champion Lazaro Alvarez and Lindolfo Delgado put on a masterful show of lightweight skill for the crowd, the Guerreros star surprising Alvarez with some clever work early on. The Cuban hero took control in the final rounds, though, powering through to a unanimous points win.
In the southpaw bout of the day, Cuba's London 2012 Olympic Champion Roniel Iglesias cruised to victory against Mexico's Marvin Cabrera at welterweight, before the home side's other triple World Champion, captain Julio Cesar La Cruz, successfully navigated his way past tricky light heavyweight Rogelio Romero.
The 10-0 victory was completed in style by Leinier Pero, who stopped Mexico's US-based Elvis Garcia in the third round of their super heavyweight bout, meaning that the Domadores reach the Semi-Finals having dropped just three points so far this season. That impressive form is likely to be given a more thorough examination in the next round, however, as the Cubans wait to hear who they face after Saturday night's Quarter-Final second leg between Russian Boxing Team and Uzbek Tigers.

RE:Invention of A Community park
One of the dominant theories of community economic development today is called placemaking.
In general, the theory states that people and wealth are mobile assets that can be retained and attracted by communities. Further, educated young people, creative people and well-financed entrepreneurs can and do choose to live in places that are engaging, welcoming, diverse and offer a wide range of cultural and natural amenities. That is, vibrant communities that offer many options for learning, playing and social engagement are places most of us actually want to live. These are the places that job-creating entrepreneurs, as well as creative and educated workers, will naturally gravitate to. From this perspective, economic development requires a focus on making communities amenity-rich, attractive places.
Without a doubt, some of the most important amenities and key attractions are parks, playgrounds, trails and pathways, heritage landscapes, and recreation programs.
For several years, splash pads and spray grounds have been identified as desired amenities for all types of recreational environments.
Community Enhancement Splash play areas provide a unique way of bringing vitality to communities. They bring families together, provide refreshment on a hot summer day, and have the potential to become a gathering point where bonds are formed.
Healthy Play Parents, citizens, and community leaders have taken on the role of ensuring the health and well-being of children and future generations. While kids flock to splash pads for fun, the pads are ideal venues to help develop and maintain active bodies and minds, especially in the following areas:
• Motor skills and coordination• Aerobic capacity• Muscular strength• Agility and reflexes• Cognitive and sensorial learning.
The concept of "play for all" or "inclusive play" also is inherent in splash pads. Their zero-depth nature and easily maneuverable features make them accessible to people of all abilities and ages. Cross-generational play is achieved through age-appropriate sections or "bays," allowing every member of the family to benefit from quality interactions.
Less time is required to upkeep the system, and the need for trained staff and lifeguards is lessened, therefore reducing labor costs.
The structures are built to be durable and resistant to vandalism, making repairs and parts replacement minimal.
An increasingly popular option to generate revenue from–or to simply cover the costs for–splash pads is the "pay for play" concept. By charging minimal or no fees to residents, and slightly higher fees to non-residents, spray parks can deliver funds to a department. Considering that pools often have entry fees, visitors are typically willing to spend the money for this experience.
Interchangeable anchoring systems, along with careful planning during the design phase, allow a community to add a splash pad that fits within a budget, while having the capability to add new play products at a later date, stretching the overall cost over several years.
The anchoring system is put in place during the construction phase; the necessary piping is installed, and the unused anchor points are covered with spray caps until new features are ready to be installed. This allows communities to enhance and alter a splash pad over the years by interchanging elements within one splash pad, or even switching products from one splash pad to another one in the community. This refreshes the experience of users without additional cost.
Recirculation systems and capture-and-repurposing systems offer advanced technology for water management, and serve as water-conservation options, as opposed to traditional drain-away systems. They allow effluent water to be contained, filtered, disinfected, and redistributed in a closed circuit, or for the water to be collected and transferred to a containment reservoir to be repurposed to irrigation, leach, or replenishment systems.
Certain physical attributes of the play structures can also reduce water usage. Play features are activated by users on demand only; water isn't consumed beyond user interaction. The features can also be sequenced so that water flow from feature to feature is distributed proportionally, as opposed to all at once, and will automatically shut off after a set period of time.
High-efficiency nozzles are available in some water features, which reduce the amount of water being expelled.

Smith grabbed the only goal of the game with nine minutes remaining against St Mirren to ensure a hat-trick of wins over Clydesdale Bank Premier League opposition following victories over Inverness and Hearts in earlier rounds.
And the defender believes a clash with fellow Ayrshire side Killie in the last four of the competition would be the most mouth-watering encounter for the Irn-Bru First Division side yet.
Kilmarnock sealed their own progression with a 2-0 win over the tournament's other giant-killers, East Fife.
Smith said: "The fans would rather have Killie and if we beat them I think there would be a bit of a riot.
"It would be great for the fans and everyone connected with the club to get the chance to put one over on your rivals. But, whoever we get, it's a bonus."
For Smith, this season's impressive cup run has gone some way to making amends for the disappointment suffered earlier in his career when he failed to make the grade as a youngster at boyhood heroes Rangers.
The 23 year-old said: "Being a Rangers fan, I was there for about four years and you think to yourself, 'this is great.' Then the day comes when you have to leave and it's a bit of a reality check.
"I was never one of those boys who felt like I was above anything so I've just gone about things and tried to get my career back and hopefully this will eventually make up for it."
Meanwhile, Kilmarnock manager Kenny Shiels claims his side's progression to the semi-finals is just reward for their high-risk strategy.
Killie were not at their inventive best when beating 10-man East Fife 2-0 at Rugby Park, relying on a goalkeeping misjudgement to make the breakthrough as Mohamadou Sissoko converted after Mark Ridgers fumbled a 73rd-minute corner.
Kilmarnock also faced 10-man opposition in their only other tie in the tournament so far, a 5-0 home victory over Queen of the South.
But Shiels felt Killie deserved more for their overall play in recent SPL draws against Celtic and Motherwell, and he argued that their commitment to an expansive passing game merited rewards.
The Northern Irishman said: "The draw has favoured us to be fair, no disrespect to teams like Queen of the South and East Fife. But I think, if you play a high-risk game, then fortune favours the brave.
"I think the club and the playing staff deserve that. We play a very open game and let crosses come in against us. I know it's risky but it's how I want my team to play. I want them to play with flair and imagination.
"We live dangerously at times but I'm delighted we have got some rewards and the chairman and the club are the beneficiaries of that."
Shiels said he would welcome a semi-final against local rivals Ayr. "I'm delighted for Brian Reid, he comes to bounce games and works ever so hard," Shiels said. "He has done remarkably well for Ayr United.
"If that was to be the draw it would certainly captivate the whole of Ayrshire."
Former Aberdeen manager Mark McGhee has expressed his interest in replacing Derek McInnes at St Johnstone.
St Johnstone had made Paul Cook their No 1 target, but talks broke down with the Sligo Rovers manager.
Saints received permission from the Airtricity League club to speak to the Liverpudlian and had agreed a compensation deal following McInnes' move to Bristol City.
But Cook has rejected the opportunity to take over at McDiarmid Park following discussions.
A St Johnsone statement read: "The club's search for a replacement manager continues today but it does not appear that the successor to Derek McInnes will be Paul Cook.
"The current manager of Sligo Rovers has been in highly-publicised talks with St Johnstone about the vacant post but the two parties have been unable to reach agreement on personal terms and the club therefore moves on to other options.
"Alec Cleland and Jody Morris continue to be in temporary charge of the team as the squad prepares for Saturday's game against St Mirren at McDiarmid Park."
McGhee, 54, threw his hat into the ring while in Musselburgh to make the draw for the third round of the Scottish Cup.
In the Cup draw, Deveronvale's reward for knocking out Third Division Berwick Rangers is a third-round trip to face Morton in Greenock.
The Highland League outfit are one of three non-Scottish Football League sides to face Division One opposition.East of Scotland League leaders Spartans host Partick Thistle, while West junior champions Irvine Meadow are at home to Livingston.
East junior champions Bo'ness United host Division Two leaders Cowdenbeath.
At least one non-league side will progress to the next round, with Junior Cup winners Auchinleck Talbot hosting East of Scotland outfit Vale Of Leithen.
The Scottish Football Association, however, has opened an investigation into claims Spartans fielded an ineligible player in their Scottish Cup second-round tie with Culter.

text: Home > Nation Miriam Santiago's health suffers anew ABS-CBN News Posted at Jan 19 2013 01:01 PM | Updated as of Jan 20 2013 07:23 AM Share Save Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn MANILA, Philippines -- While still recovering from a mild stroke amid a word war with fellow lawmakers, Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago has suffered new health woes. Santiago was diagnosed on Friday with a chronic bone marrow disorder resulting in low red blood cell and hemoglobin count, known as "slow bone marrow," according to the senator's media bureau. Hemoglobin is a protein that enables red blood cells to carry oxygen from the lungs to other parts of the body. With low hemoglobin count, the blood cannot carry an adequate supply of oxygen, causing fatigue, dizziness, shortness of breath and heart palpitations. In extreme cases, bone marrow transplantation from the patient's family may be needed. In a statement, Santiago's media bureau said the senator once defied her bone marrow disorder. "A few years ago, she disobeyed doctors' orders and took a long flight to Europe to deliver a lecture at an international conference," the statement read. "But when she reached Turkey, and reported for the lecture, she suddenly fell down from the stage on her way to the podium, thus breaking her arm and her eyeglasses. She insisted on delivering her lecture, and her efforts received an ovation from the international crowd. The accident was shown on Philippine TV," it added. Santiago's blood tests also showed that she has high cholesterol, triglycerides and LDL or "bad" cholesterol, which could increase the risk of her suffering from atherosclerosis, heart attack and stroke. The senator also suffers from high calcium, uric acid, and blood urea. Quoting a doctor who requested anonymity, the senator's media bureau said with Santiago's stressful lifestyle, she is just endangering herself. "Sen. Santiago is a ticking time bomb. Her lifestyle is ultra stressful, because she is too passionate and intense about her work. She is endangering herself," the doctor said. Santiago, meanwhile, said: "I am quarantined from certain toxic people, and I am sequestered from political news. I may as well be shot. But then again, I will have more time for my four granddaughters, every single one of whom is precocious, beautiful, brilliant, and a potential Olympic champion." Santiago suffered from hypertension and mild stroke after her interview with ANC's morning show Headstart on Wednesday. Blood vessels in her right eye also burst after the interview, where she lambasted Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile whom she accused of personally attacking her. Doctors of Santiago has advised her to "disengage from politics" or else risk another stroke or even a heart attack.

Gun Violence Is a Health Crisis: Physicians' Responsibilities
- 1.5k Downloads
- Citations
If we were told of a preventable condition that kills 30,000 people in our country each year, and that it could be curbed by changing public opinion, we'd think the task was in reach.1 Marketing has turned the tide against smoking, for example.2 Cigarettes' status has fallen from fashionable to toxic. This was a slow process—changes in advertising, education, films, and, eventually, laws, made it clear that smoking kills.
Guns kill—just like smoking, just like substance abuse, just like driving without a seatbelt. However, guns are also an icon of safety and personal freedom for many. Given the epidemic of gun-related injury and death, how do physicians reconcile our duty to reduce morbidity and mortality with Americans' value of individual freedom?
As doctors, our patients and the public depend on us to neither wait for a marketing campaign for a health measure that is warranted nor to be inhibited by marketing that promotes a dangerous product. We are expected to state clearly what is in the best health interest of our patients and the public.
We understand and accept that military personnel and police require guns to protect the public. Whether the public should have guns, especially ones that are designed to kill as many people as possible as quickly as possible, is debatable. What is not debatable are the consequences.3,4 Thousands of Americans die every month from guns used outside of military or police use. By 2015, gun-related deaths are expected to exceed deaths from motor vehicle accidents.5
As physicians, teachers, researchers, and stewards of the public health, what are our responsibilities? In each of these roles, we have opportunities to reduce preventable death and injury due to firearms.
As clinicians, we know that mental health care and counseling are central to helping patients lessen their own and their family's risk of gun-related injury. To reduce acts of individual and mass gun violence, access to mental health services must improve dramatically and rapidly. Access to high-quality comprehensive mental health care is woefully inadequate and needs to be addressed comprehensively and systemically. There is a need for more facilities with wraparound services that address the needs of the mentally ill and access to mental health care should truly have parity to that for other illnesses. The lack of access to psychiatric clinicians is as acute as it is for primary care providers, and analogous adjustments should be made to replenish this clinical area.
Also as clinicians, we oppose government intrusion into the patient-doctor relationship, such as recently imposed in Florida, which restricts discussion with patients and families of firearm safety and health consequences. Muzzling speech by physicians related to gun safety is inappropriate from medical, social, and constitutional perspectives; this has no place in this country.
As educators, to support gun safety, we should educate and train physicians, other health professionals, and the public on the epidemiology of gun violence and risk factors for gun-related injuries and death. We should support physician training in gun violence screening, counseling, and prevention as a sizable portion of the population is at risk.
As researchers into the causes, prevention, and treatment of health impairment, injury and death from gun violence warrant our attention. As with any public health risk, we strongly support federal funding for studies into the sources of gun violence, injury, and death—and strategies to prevent them. Legal restrictions supported by the gun lobby have prevented the National Institutes of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and other agencies from funding such studies and leaves us with inadequate evidence on which to base interventions. We strongly oppose these restrictions on potentially lifesaving research and urge their immediate termination.
As stewards of public health, we recognize that certain guns, and certain individuals when given access to guns, pose inherent risks to public health. In order to have an organized approach to responding to these risks, registration of gun owners—just as for car drivers—is necessary—and tracking of gun ownership should be as good as it is for cars. Moreover, although cars can kill, it is not their primary purpose. Therefore, given that killing or the threat of killing is the primary purpose of a gun, there should be tighter qualifications for ownership. Gun ownership must require universal background checks and should have appropriate restrictions to protect the public health and safety. Also a public health issue is what kind of guns are appropriate for ownership by the general public. Just as armed military tanks have no place on our highways and driveways, there is no place for assault weapons and high capacity ammunition magazines in our society outside of the military. Assault weapons, high-capacity ammunition magazines, armor-piercing bullets, and other such weapons should be banned outside a military or analogous setting.
Physicians, based on their roles as clinicians, educators, stewards of the public's health, and researchers, should support such efforts as the President's proposals for gun safety. We should work in our communities, with the Administration, Congress, and other organizations to implement a comprehensive approach to reducing gun-related injury. The modern Hippocratic Oath for physicians says, "I will remember that I remain a member of society, with special obligations to all my fellow human beings, those sound of mind and body as well as the infirm."6 The role of the physician brings a special obligation to society in the face of the preventable disability and death due to guns. We must take them on as we would for any other health crisis.
Dr. Selker is immediate past President of Society of General Internal Medicine (SGIM) and Dr. Schwartz is Chair of the SGIM Health Policy Committee.

Caudalie is a french brand that specialises in gorgeous skin care, I love their products because they are so affordable, 100% natural and really seem to work well. I had some training on the brand last week and was really eager to try out their contouring concentrate oil [Basically another anti cellulite solution?]. if you have read my previous post on the L'oreal sculpt up gel, then you will know I was quite satisfied with the results. I am, however like most of us beauty addicts always on the look out for something new. This oil is meant to be a 40 day treatment, you basically apply a few pumps of the oil on to your hips, thighs and buttocks and it is supposed to drain, slim and nourish problem areas. It is set to target water retained areas and you can lose up to 3.8 CMs after the 28 days, I think it's one of the very few 100% Natural anti-cellulite products out there! That had me sold straight away. Today was the first day I used the product and although it's an oil/serum consistency it really penetrated into my skin and didn't leave my legs feeling as if I had just applied an oil. For best results you are meant to use it with a scrub twice a week. It is only intended to be used once, daily and best after a bath/shower.
I am going to measure myself and document my 28 days of this product. It has a gauge on the side of the bottle so its marked out as to how much you are meant to use a day. I love that it's a spray/pump oil it just means less mess and trust me I'm messy enough!
It is priced at £25.50, which if you think about it.. is less than a £1 a day!
Caudalie is sold in Space Nk, Some Boots, ASOS and department stores within the UK. In France Caudalie is pretty much available everywhere! [If you are in France I think it's actually a bit cheaper over there!] I am sure you can purchase online if you are elsewhere and interested :)
So ladies.. 28 days from now I will reveal my thoughts but wanted you to know about my next anti cellulite discovery! If I notice any changes weekly I will be sure to let you know
P.S All of the Caudalie range smells AMAZING, as the products are based on vineries - I love the fruity fresh grape smell. Their hand cream is my favourite!!!
P.P.S Sorry about the pictures it proved impossible to take any because of the bottle/lighting etc.. so the first pic is from google images. I really dislike not using my own photos but hey :(
Have any of you used any Caudalie products? What about anti cellulite products? What are you favourites?

An official ribbon-cutting ceremony, with Redwood City Mayor Alicia Aguirre and City Council members, plus tours of the new theater, were opening scenes for the debut production of the new Dragon Theatre in Redwood City on Jan. 25. The drama was the presentation of a sharp satirical play, "After Ashley," by Pulitizer Prize for Drama nominee Gina Gionfriddo.
Founder, artistic and executive director Meredith Hagedorn said in a telephone interview this week that everything went as planned on opening night. "It's a dream come true," she said. about when she cut the ribbon on the new Broadway theater.
"There were no words to express my excitement," she said. She plans to offer a wide variety of plays in the new theater.
"After Ashley" is the story of a father and son who are swept up in a media frenzy after the murder of a family member. Hagedorn likes the play, which focuses on America's fascination with reality TV, crime shows that describe gory murder details, television psychologists, self-help gurus and politically correct jargon.
She says it also is an opportunity to introduce a new playwright.
"The first scene (between the mother, Ashley Hammond, played by Hagedorn, and her son Justin Hammond, played by Sean Gilvary) is brilliantly written," Hagedorn said. She also said that it's a small role, and is the perfect chance for her to play a part in the debut production.
Director Dale Albright (this is his sixth play for Dragon) also played the role of the father, Alden Hammond, and he brought the play to Hagedorn's attention. " I fell in love with the play with the first three pages of the opening scene," he said at the post-performance party.
Seen offering congratulations, sipping champagne and sampling tasty appetizers were Dragon Productions board members Armen Vidian, Dave Sikula, Janette Herceg, Greg Deckrow, Kimberly Wadycki and Barbara Schonborn, along with Eva Chiu and Antonio Lao of Clad Architects, who designed the theater, and contractor Louis Paycheck, with European Enterprises. It was excellent teamwork: construction started in August and Dragon Productions started moving in during December.
Board member Vidian saluted the debut, saying, "Meredith brings high quality productions to the Mid-Peninsula, which is critically important."
The play continues through Feb. 17. For information, go to www.dragonproductions.net.
Benefit for Smuin Ballet
Fun, flash and hot dancing described the scene at "Fly Me to the Moon," the annual fundraiser for San Francisco's Smuin Ballet on Jan. 26. At least 250 guests dressed in elegant gowns and/or "Rat Pack chic" turned out for the event, at San Francisco's Four Seasons Hotel.
Event co-chairman John Konstin said that he and his co-chairmen were pleased that the event raised more than $300,000 for the ballet's 20th anniversary season, in 2014. The proceeds literally guarantee the 16 dancers will have new shoes, beautiful costumes and unique sets.
The highlight of the evening was the Smuin's performance of Tony Award-winning choreographer Michel Smuin's tribute to Frank Sinatra, his "Fly Me to the Moon" ballet. The choreography is described as "a blend of ballet and Broadway."
San Francisco icons former Mayor Willie Brown Jr. and Wilkes Bashford headed the honorary committee that included Anne Moeller Caen, George Gascone, Anette Harris and Mark Loupe and State Sen. Mark Leno.
In the spirit of the Sinatra theme, Brown joined the Smuin dancers in a reprise of the finale kick-line dance number, "New York, New York," that generated lots of applause and photos.
Brown personally auctioned four tickets to a San Francisco Giants game with seats in the special section behind home plate reserved for players' friends and family. The prize included a visit to the booth with stadium announcer Renel Brooks-Moon and television broadcasters Mike Krukow and Duane Kuiper. It sold twice to Dan Taube and Patti Hume.
Bashford also took to the stage, to encourage bidding on his $1,000 personal shopping and lunch prize at John's Grill with Brown. Two bidders each paid $6,000 for the experience.
Leftwich Event Specialists, Inc. transformed the dining room into a 1950s supper club with a black and silver color scheme. Centerpieces were giant martini glasses and square glass vases filled with red tulips on mirrored bases.
Women wearing vintage themed gowns that resembled Ava Gardner chic with bubble skirts and pointy toed shoes danced to the music of Tony DeWayne's Group Elegance with their significant others and husbands, who wore fedoras and dangling ties (a la Sinatra).
Leading the applause was Artistic and Executive Director Celia Fushille, along with Peninsula guests Bill Zappettini with Paula Massoni (she made the winning dessert auction bid of $2,500 for a gluten-free chocolate cake by Tout Sweet Patisserie, the new San Francisco sweet shop owned by Just Desserts winner Yigit Pura). Edie Kirkwood (she is a board member) and husband Bob Kirkwood hosted a table of friends: Susie and Britt Stitt, Hotelier Clement Chen (Holiday Inn) with his daughter Patti Chen, John Northway, Lisa Grote, Smuin dancer Jane Rehm and founding board member Allie Weismann.
Smuin would have had a good time. "When Sinatra sings, you naturally want to dance," he said in an interview when his ballet debuted.

Make Your Motorcycle Ride More Efficient with Givi
The motorcycle is quite an interesting vehicle for most Filipinos. This convenient, smaller, and fuel-efficient ride-on can reach comparable speeds as with cars; can squeeze in tight traffic spaces, and other advantages that could make travelling much easier, provided that the rider has enough discipline to ride this motorcycle.
Even so, there are more ways to make the motorbike a more interesting and useful vehicle for transportation. Several accessories, worn by the rider and installed on the vehicle, are made to make the riding experience safer and more convenient. These cases, holders, and other biking accessories can be provided by multiple brands; but if you are looking for the best option for the device, you should go for the devices provided by Givi.
Givi Completes Your Motorcycle Riding Capability
The Givi brand is one of the top manufacturers and developers of the motorcycle accessories needed and familiar to most riders. This Italian group promises added usage and proficient products that can be equipped to any motorcycle, and allows you to carry the necessary components that you need when you have an emergency, or when your bike accidentally breaks down. The brand also makes the right wearable accessories that the rider should wear in order to protect themselves when riding. With the right mix of accessories for both the rider and the motorcycle, it is no wonder why this group is widely considered as a professional company that produces the right parts for high class and business riders in the world.
Why choose the Givi Accessories?
- The Italian group has one of the most efficient set of accessories that can be added to a motorcycle.
- The brand has a proper selection of items that are good for both rider and bike.
- The group is considered as a great contender in the development of the proper accessories for motorcycles and other vehicle components.
- Motorcycle Helmet: The motorcycle helmet is a much needed accessory for riders, to protect their heads from danger and potential falls on the bike. These helmets also prevent drag and winds to affect the vision of the rider when riding fast on a highway.
- Body Suit: If you are a pro rider or a racer, wearing a proper set of motorcycle gear is needed to protect your body, and make maneuvering less of a hassle. The body suit can compress and expand to suit any wearer.
- Motorcycle gloves: If you are riding on a wet season, or are holding the bike's bars for so long, rain water, or sweat can affect your riding. Prevent this by wearing a pair of biker gloves that also has the proper traction on its palms, allowing you to hold firmly the handle bars and rev your motorcycle easily.
For the Rider
- Rear Cases: Most delivery bikes have this large compartment stationed at the back of the bike. This box carries the necessary items that the rider can and must bring anytime. These won't just hold fast food, but other items that you'll need.
- Side Bags: If you are carrying something, but want it to be more organized, getting a side bag is a great alternative. The smaller compartment that goes at the side, near the back wheel could carry paperwork and other items that the rider would need to be organized and accurate when delivered.
- Windshield and Protection: you can equip a front glass shield on your motorcycle and see the advantages that it can give you, with regards to safety And protection. This can reduce wind drag, and can protect you by acting as a shield against anything that your bike can encounter while riding.

HI twinkletoes, I think it depends on what you find fun!
Dancing - whether dance lessons or closing the curtains and going wild in the lounge - is a great calorie burner. I tend to dance to release stress at home, music on, door firmly shut, and I quite often add light wrist and ankle weights to it just to make sure I'm working those muscles.
Martial arts really is fun, and it isn't just people thumping each other. Find a good club which teaches self-defence as a large part of your training and you'll learn a skill which could save your life at the same time as getting a complete physical and mental workout.
Swimming, cycling, walking/running the dog are all good and fairly inexpensive once you have swim membership/a bike/a dog!
I've never tried it, but zumba is supposed to be excellent.
Hope these help.

After it is refreshed I suspect it will just carry on it's journey home...
Linking to Our World Tuesday and Wild Bird Wednesday
handsome visitor.
This is a wonderful visitor Andrew.
The rumour must be spreading that you run a good hotel :)
Sadly Andrew he will most likely wring it's neck. Look up the number and catch it. Pop it in a box. Phone the owner. Then keep it as a pet. Pigeon racing is worse than greyhound racing or pheasant shooting.
You never know your luck it could be one of our monarchs. She like all pigeon fanciers will only be waiting to clock it in at it's loft. It's supposed to race home...not take the scenic route.
It is an awful sport but not as bad as cock fighting.
It certainly seems to be ruling the roost at your place.
I go along with Adrian, but, it looks good in your garden Andrew.
Beautiful colours!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Good looking bird! Love that eye!
Start feeding it. It may stick around!
It really does have some lovely colors.
I agree with Adrian. Try and keep it there; the owner will only kill it if it returns.
He's either doing an ultra marathon and needs a break or he's lost!!
Cheers - Stewart M - Melbourne
Beautiful! Nice detail in the colors.
Great photos!
...that 3rd one down from the top is my favorite...I love the slight tilt of its head. Pretty bird.
Love the iridescent colours, beautiful shots.
The colors on this pigeon are beautiful. Great shots, Andrew!
Hi 'Drew, I wonder how far this pigeon has travelled to drop by your place? Maybe not far, he might live 'just around the corner' :). Certainly does look quite happy to be there and little wonder with all your goodies in place.
Beautiful and interesting bird. I was curious about the nodules above its beak, if they are part of the beak or what???
Beautiful neck colours!
The neck indeed shows different colors. Great captures.
They are so pretty, I had one that landed in our yard ant though tI was a female pigeon. It kept protecting me from all the members of my family and kept circling me wit a dropped wing and making mating noises. Quite odd.
Great photos of the carrier pigeon, colors are super.
Best wishes, Irma
Beautiful bird with amazing eyes! I guess it is taking a bit of a rest before continuing on its journey.
Love the colour of his eye.
Amazing close up in your pictures!
Great photographs, Andrew!
We lived in Germany many, many years ago and our landlord kept racing pigeons. It was fascinating to learn about the sport and watch the birds return each time.
Good post!
Love how the plumage flashes in the sunlight!
Very beautiful photos and video for SWF,Andrew!Thank you for sharing and have a great weekend!
Wonderful close-ups and such a pretty sheen on its feathers.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Brazilian Arts Foundation, Houston, TX, USA
I moved away less than 2 years ago and I still think of and remember the BAF fondly. They were, they are and they always will be a family to me. It does not matter how long I am gone, I always feel welcomed. I have learned so much from capoeira and from Gringo. I will always remember when Gringo said, "you will get as much out of it as you put in". And so it has been true for capoeira and in life. I have learned amazing lessons that I always carry with me. I would recommend the Foundation in a heart beat for all subjects. The instructors are all professionals.

Review for Brazilian Arts Foundation, Houston, TX, USA
A few years ago, a friend of mine introduced me to Capoiera while we were living in France. We started practicing together just for fun. When I returned to Houston, I learned about the Brazilian Art Foundation and I decided to start training with the a professional instructor. I really enjoy gringo's teaching style and all the references to real life. My favorite quote: "you get out of it what you put in". Same is true for life.
I have made a few new friends and I feel like I am part of a new family. Houston is lucky to have such a wonderful organization and their dedication to the community makes it even more special.

Follow the Interview with a Thank-You Note
The thank-you note is a necessary tool for any job-hunting strategy. But should you send it email or snail mail, handwritten or typed? In this fast-paced computer age, the question baffles even the most sophisticated job hunters. Follow these guidelines to help you through the maze.
Email Thank-You Notes
Snail Mail
If the company you interviewed with is formal and traditional, use snail mail to send your thank-you note.
Should it be handwritten or typed? Typed is the standard reply. Not only will you show that you are business-like, you'll also prove that you know how to put together the salutation, format a letter and sign off. Executives want to know that their administrative assistants know how to do this, since writing letters for your boss could be a big part of your job.
Handwritten notes are appropriate if you'd like to extend your thanks to others in the office who you felt helped you out. For example, if a receptionist, assistant, office manager or another person involved with the interviewing process was especially helpful -- say they took you to lunch or guided you from office to office during the interviewing process -- then a handwritten note is a nice gesture to show your appreciation.
What to Say
What you say and how you say it are even more important than the manner in which you send it. A standard thank-you note should accomplish several things:
- Thank the person for the opportunity to interview with the company.
- Recap some of the conversational highlights.
- Clarify any information you needed to check on for the interviewer.
- And most importantly, plug your skills. Use the last paragraph as a chance to state, "The job is a good fit for me because of XYZ and my past experience in XYZ."

|Isaias Afewerki
Eritrea's president has made an appearance on national TV to dispel rumours he is either dead or ailing."I do not have any kind of sickness," Isaias Afewerki said.
He accused those peddling such rumours of being "sick" themselves and said they were indulging in psychological warfare to "disturb" the people.Mr Isaias, 66, has led Eritrea since its independence in 1993 from Ethiopia - but faces criticism for failing to implement democratic reforms.
The rumours on various opposition websites and on social media noted that the president had not appeared on television for nearly a month, which they believed was unusual.

Our view: Don't scrap UMD bus pass program
Launched in 2000, a program to give free bus passes to students and others at UMD was heralded as the long-sought answer to easing congestion and parking woes on campus while also helping college kids, many of them from out of town, become a vibrant part of the Duluth community.
It worked out well. Quickly the program was "too important to lose," as a UMD vice chancellor announced three years later when it was time to renew the arrangement, which by then had been expanded to other campuses in the city by the Duluth Transit Authority.
Today an estimated 6,200 UMD students and 800 campus employees ride the bus more than half a million times per school year. The "U-Pass" program is wildly popular and successful. It has become a piece of the fabric of campus life in Duluth.
And that'll continue, University of Minnesota Duluth officials insist -- even if they follow through with their proposal to begin charging students $10 per semester for their unlimited-rides passes. The proposal is a start at eating into a $9.4 million budget shortfall.
The charge, called a "transportation fee," will be assessed to student accounts at the same time as other student fees, Lisa Erwin, vice chancellor for student life, explained to the News Tribune Opinion page this week. Paying will be automatic, so it should also be painless. And students won't have a choice about participating, so all the benefits of the program's first 14 years will be preserved.
And really, a new 10-buck fee hardly seems enough to dissuade any student from coming to school at UMD, which costs about $20,000 per year. At the University of Minnesota in the Twin Cities, the "transportation fee" is $20 per semester.
Charging a transportation fee at UMD is expected to raise about $180,000, Erwin said. While that's only a tiny fraction of the $9.4 million deficit, it is a start.
"We are developing a plan to create a discounted transportation program for faculty and staff as well," she said. "They currently ride for free."
Such a plan makes sense. It seems fair. If students are to pay a nominal fee, instructors and other campus employees can expect the same. And it could eat into that deficit just a wee bit more.
When UMD first publicly broached charging students a fee for U-Pass, anxiety could have been expected that the program would become cost-
prohibitive, that its benefits would be lost and the program altogether, eventually, could be scrapped. But that doesn't appear to be the case. UMD officials seem to have come up with a better way to run the program -- and a painless, affordable way to raise revenue, even if only a tiny bit of what's needed overall. Still, only $9.2 million to go.

Alcohol Concentrations and Standard Drinks
The ACT, like other states and territories in Australia, makes it an offence to drive with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.05 or higher. This article will help you understand what that means.
Standard drinks
Counting your drinks might help you avoid reaching a BAC of 0.05, but only if you know how much alcohol is in each drink. As a rough guideline, converting drinks you have consumed to "standard drinks" will help you estimate your BAC.
A standard drink is one that contains 10 grams of pure alcohol. Examples of typical standard drinks are:
- A "middy" (285 ml) of beer
- A "nip" (30 ml) of spirits
- A small glass (100 ml) of wine
- A small glass (60 ml) of sherry
Keep in mind that a "shot" of spirits is about 45 ml, making it about 1.5 standard drinks. Also keep in mind that many wine glasses used in restaurants and wine bars are large. They might be the equivalent of 1.5 or 2 standard drinks.
Factors that determine BAC
How many drinks you have is only one factor that determines your BAC. Also important are:
- Your gender
- Your body weight
- Your body fat
- The length of time that passes between drinks
How recently you ate a meal and the size of the meal
Since so many variables are involved, it is impossible to be certain of your BAC based solely on the number of drinks you have consumed.
Safe drinking guidelines
According to the Australian Federal Police, to avoid exceeding 0.05, you should follow these guidelines:
- For men: no more than 2 standard drinks during the first hour, then no more than 1 per hour
- For women: no more than 1 standard drink during the first hour, then no more than 1 per hour
Drink driving
Remember that you do not need to be drunk or even to feel the effects of alcohol to commit a drink driving offence. Driving with a BAC of 0.05 or above is all that matters.
You can be stopped for a random breath test. Refusing the test is an offence that may result in a more serious penalty than failing the test. In addition, if you take the test and are only slightly above 0.05, it may be possible to challenge the test result. Consult with a lawyer if you want to defend against a drink driving accusation.
Disclaimer : This article is just a summary of the subject matter being discussed and should not be regarded as a comprehensive legal advice for you to defend yourself alone. If you are charged with criminal offences, it is recommended that you seek legal assistance from criminal lawyers.
Whether you're in Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, Perth or even Adelaide we have criminal lawyers that are ready to help you instantly.

Best Boat Grill – Portable Gas Grill Reviews and Top Picks
Have you ever been out on the water and wished you were not stuck eating cold sandwiches?
Having a gas grill on your boat can transform your boating experience into a backyard barbecue.
However, boat grills are sometimes hard to find and the selection is limited.
In this article, we will help you find the very best boat grill on the market and help you select the right one for your needs.
Note: If you are in a hurry, you can read the quick consideration list down below or read our Quick Comparison Table.
Best Boat Grills For Your Consideration
The Cuisinart With Mounting Bracket for Boats is a solid device and seems to have avoided many of the issues found with other models. The product is attractive, durable, and easy to use.
The Grill comes with a solid mounting bracket which works well as long as there is an open rail on which to mount it.
The Magma A10-215 is very sharp in appearance with a mirror finish that stands out. If you want a product that is a bit showy, this may be a good fit. However, what you gain in appearance you lose in reliability due to a few users reporting rusting and ignition problems.
It does not come with a mounting bracket, but an aftermarket bracket can be purchased.
The Magma A10-803 Connoisseur is the most expensive grill that we reviewed, but it has serious advantages versus the other Magma model. It is still attractive but boasts a larger surface area. It also does not have the ignition or rusting issues mentioned previously, and you can purchase a mounting bracket separately.
The Smoke Hollow 205 Portable is the least expensive product that was reviewed in this list. You can tell that the materials used are not quite as sturdy, but it is still a good value. The cooking surface is large and it heats up quickly, but it cannot be mounted on a rail.
The Char-Broil TRU-Infrared is another inexpensive model, but its performance is impressive. Being infrared causes it to heat up quickly without using much propane, yet it still cooks evenly. If performance and value are your priorities and you do not need to mount your grill, this may be a good fit.

Reviews Of The Best Boat Grills
Cuisinart Boat Grill Modified with Arnall's Bracket Set - Editor's Choice
The first product featured in this list is the Cuisinart with Arnall's Bracket Set.
This product is an excellent choice to consider because It is well built, easy to install, and easy to clean. Everybody that has used it has been pleased overall.
Cuisinart is known for quality and ease of use. If those are your priorities, this grill may be a good option.
This product heats quickly and evenly and cooks enough food for half a dozen people. It attaches and detaches quickly so it can be used on the boat or on the shore.
There were some issues with the ignition, but that seems to be a common theme with all propane grills. It does come with mounting brackets that are strong and secure, but they only work on open rails. If the rail is not open on four sides, a quick modification must be made for it to fit properly.
The grill has no major hot spots to speak of. However, it will burn through a full 16 oz. bottle of propane with one use.
It is also not the shiniest or most flashy product we reviewed, but it is still plenty attractive for my taste.
This is the only product that came with mounting brackets of any kind, so it should be mentioned that you can easily spend an additional $40 on aftermarket brackets. Once you have factored in those savings, this model has to be a serious contender.
Things We Liked
- Reliable
- Sturdy Mounting Brackets
- Heats Quickly
- Cooks Evenly
- Easy to Install
Things We Didn't Like
- You have to press the ignition button several times to start the fire
Magma A10-215 Marine Kettle - Best Looking Boat Grill
Of our top choices, this product has a very unique look. If you are looking for a grill that will impress your friends and family by adding to the appearance of your boat, the Magma is a good choice. Overall those that have purchased it, have been satisfied.
That being said, there are a few issues that have been seen. The grill does not come with a mounting bracket, so you have to purchase one separately. It does not have a deflector shield for the vents, so controlling the temperature and avoiding hot spots can be tough.
Magma uses the more inexpensive 304 steel for its products. This particular type of steel is more susceptible to rust from salt water, so this should be noted if you intend to be out to sea. Other grills either paint their surfaces or use the more durable 316 stainless steel. So, if you pick this, you should clean it often, especially if you use it on sea.
Most users found it to be reliable. However, in some cases, the burner and inside shell rusted out and had to be replaced. It also sometimes had ignition issues as with most of the propane grills models available on the market.
The grill is not very portable on its own, but a carrying case can be purchased separately. Of course, this adds quite a bit to the cost.
Things We Liked
- Attractive
- Good Cooking Area
- Heats Quickly
- Cooks Evenly
- Easy to Install
Things We Didn't Like
- Ignition Button needs to be clicked several times to work
- No mounting brackets included
- Some users reported rusting problems over time
Magma A10-803 Connoisseur - Best Grill for Pontoon Boat
This model is a bit more expensive, but Magma seemed to get it right on this model.
This product is still very attractive as are the other Magma models, but there are fewer issues with rusting. It cooks evenly with no hotspots because of the way the venting is designed.
This model also does not come with a mounting bracket, so plan to purchase one separately.
We were pleasantly surprised to find no issues with the ignition and you can cook food for several people with the surface area being large.
However, In furious windy conditions, it did take a long time to heat up, making the cooking time longer.
We also found this grill easy to break down and clean. The grease trap system works well, and when cleaned after each use, it will last a long time.
It is very portable with folding legs and a locking lid. The handle runs the length of the grill, so it is easy to grip and carry on and off of your boat. At 16.9 lbs. it will not wear out your arm either.
Things We Liked
- Good Looking
- Good Cooking Area
- Reliable Ignition
- Cooks Evenly
- Easy to Clean
Things We Didn't Like
- No Mounting Brackets Included
- Heats a Bit Slowly
- A Bit Expensive
- A Few Users Reported Rusting Issues Over Time
Smoke Hollow 205 Stainless Steel - Best Grill for Small Boats
We found this product to be an overall good value. At 305 sq. inches, the cooking area is almost twice that of other grills and It is also priced very competitively.
Smoke Hollow has found a way to regulate the gas flow more effectively, so even a small propane canister should last through several uses. However, a full sized canister will not fit on this grill without an adapter.
It cooks evenly and reaches prime grilling temperature in just a few minutes.
The ignition is faulty right out of the box, just like most of the propane grills but you can make it to work by pressing the button several time or if you want a permanent fix, you can bend the ignition with your hand closer to the flow of gas.
The metal is a little thin and flimsy, but no rusting issues were noticed.
This is a table-top type of unit and it doesn't come with mounting brackets but you can buy an aftermarket set and mount on your boat.
The grill is very portable despite its size with folding legs and a locking lid. You would think the extra surface area would make it heavy, but it is still only about 20 lbs.
Things We Liked
- Cheap Price
- Huge Cooking Area
- Heats Quickly
- Cooks Evenly
Things We Didn't Like
- Ignition Doesn't Work Perfectly for Some Users
- No Mounting Bracket Included
- Cannot Use Large Canister without Adapter
Char-Broil TRU-Infrared - Best Portable Boat Grill
While not one of the prettiest grills we reviewed, there are definitely some positive aspects to this product.
The infrared design allows it to get very hot quickly and cook evenly. However, it does this without burning through much propane and without burning the table it sits upon.
The grill is sturdy and very portable. Everything including the small gas canister fits inside for easy carrying. There are no hot spots and the design should be durable long-term. Even the ignition was reliable.
This product is designed to be table-top only so it cannot be mounted to the boat with any brackets we could find. That being said, because of the price and function we feel this is a model that should be considered.
It was noted that the grill smokes more than expected when first turned on, but the smoke stops after a few minutes. It should not be an ongoing problem.
The lid does lock allowing it to be carried, but the legs do not fold in. A carrying case is available for separate purchase, but you have to pay some extra money for it.
Things We Liked
- Easy to Carry
- Uses Little Gas
- Heats Quickly
- Cheap Price
- Reliable Ignition
Things We Didn't Like
- Not The Best Looking Product
- Cannot Be Mounted
How To Choose The Best Boat Grill
When selecting the best gas grill for your boat, there are several points on which to focus. The right product can turn your boat into a convenient cookout while the wrong one can be an absolute nightmare.
First, we can look at the benefits of having a portable gas grill on your boat:
- A good grill allows you to cook hot food without having to head back to shore.
- The right grill is easy to install on any railing and comes with all the hardware needed.
- It fires up every time and does not burn a large amount of propane.
- It cooks evenly in a short amount of time.
- It attaches to both small and full sized propane tanks.
- It removes easily and is convenient to use separate from the boat.
- It is durable and resists rust and decay.
While there are benefits to have a portable grill on your boat, it can be quickly transformed into a nightmare if you don't consider these pitfalls.
Pitfalls To Avoid When Buying A Portable Gas Grill for Boating
Boat Grills are a niche product and the market does not offer a great deal of selection. This means that there will be huge differences when comparing your top choices.
Here are some common issues you may find:
- As with all gas grills, finding a good ignition is difficult.
- Many products do not come with the mounting bracket or cannot be mounted.
- Many do not attach to full sized propane tanks.
- Several are made of a cheaper steel that will rust over time, especially if exposed to salt water.
- Some of these products either have extreme hot spots making it easy to burn food, or they heat up slowly using more propane.
- Several have a small surface area limiting how much food you can cook at once.
If you take your time and select the unit that completely fits your needs, it can add so much to your boating experience.
Of the five products we reviewed, we find the Cuisinart for Boats to be the best overall value and the best boat grill. This products is attractive, durable, and is the only model that comes with a mounting bracket to mount to the rail of your boat. It is also above average in price, but it is the only grill that delivered in all the areas we found important.
It is definitely more attractive than the Char-Broil and can use a full sized propane tank, unlike the Smoke Hollow.
It will not rust out like the Magma models and cooks more evenly than any of the other four we reviewed.
The only issue we saw was with the ignition and compared to the other factors that seemed minor.
Also, If you are unsure what to pick, you can purchase an Arnall's Bracket Set and use them to mount almost any grill on your boat.
So now it is time to make a purchase. Once your grill is assembled and installed, spend some time cooking with it and see what you think.
We hope you picked the best boat grill and will take the time to provide feedback on this article and on your selection.
Thank you from FuriousGrill.com and Happy Grilling!
