Opening Day
Published by Chickidy in the blog Chickidy's blog. Views: 99
Yesterday was the opening day for pheasants out here in Wisconsin, a sport very few participate in simply because there aren't many good game farms here. Well me and my father went out there to the annual opener, a beautiful day by the way, where they grill up some brats and make up some sweet corn on the cob from the local farms and you get to mingle with some of your fellow hunters. It's pretty nice, especially being amongst like minded individuals who share your sport of hunting and love of nature. You eat, talk, let the dog run around, shoot some traps and poke around the property for some birds, all around a fine afternoon.
Now my game farm is one of the best there it, in my opinion. It has heavy cover, the birds are hidden well and often get out of the cover and move around before you can flush them from where they were put out, and people often miss much of what they had put out for them. Needless to say, it isn't a game farm where the hunting is more like shooting fish in a barrel, it's genuine finde'em and flush'em. My father and I, however, take it one step further, making it even more difficult for ourselves, and even closer to the real thing. We scratch hunt, that is, hunt for the birds everybody else miss. We are the cleanup crew, and every bird we harvest is one someone else put out.
It was a pretty good day, my sister and brother in law came out that day and she took my niece shopping with my mother, so Neil, my brother in law, came out to join us. He's a good guy but not as much of a hunter as us. He doesn't do much more than Whitetails in winter. But, he did surprisingly well when we shot clays, almost better than me. Then I got a chance to shoot this little 22. I won at the DU banquet a while back, now I know why they call them plinkers. It's a sweet little gun, though, and pretty fun to shoot. But before any of that, we got the dog out and walked around looking for birds, not hunting hard though, just mainly checking out the property and giving Hannah a chance to run around. She's getting on in years, but still is an excellent bird dog, and she loves hunting. It's very lucky to find a natural hunter in a dog, and I'm glad Hannah worked out so well.
That was opening day, and we didn't see anything but a good time.

Bantwal: In a curious incident, a cow and a fox were found dead together at an electric fence near the Vinayaka Sadashiva temple in Ammunje in the taluk on Sunday morning.
On account of heavy rainstorm on Saturday night, an overhead high-tension electric cable had snapped, with power flowing in it. A cow, belonging to Vinay, came into contact with it and was electrocuted. The same fate awaited a fox which came in search of food. It too died of electric shock.
Another cow, belonging to Lakshmi, came into contact but it saved itself by retreating in time. Another woman who came by the way also escaped in time.
The MESCOM staff arrived immediately and averted further damage.

Detroit moved into a new ballpark named Navin Field in 1912 and played in that venue for 88 seasons though 1999. In the early twentieth century the team fielded one of the best hitting teams in the game behind stars Ty Cobb and Sam Crawford, both eventually Hall of Famers. Cobb, who later managed the Tigers and played his final game for Detroit in 1926, was regarded by most experts as the greatest player of the first half of the century. The Tigers won pennants in 1907-08-09, though they failed to win the World Series in any of those seasons.
Prior to the 1934 season the team acquired catcher/manager Mickey Cochrane, a significant move in franchise history. Cochrane coalesced a talented team and led them to pennants in each of his first two seasons, winning the team's first World Series title in 1935. That team featured Charlie Gehringer, Hank Greenberg, Goose Goslin, and pitchers Tommy Bridges and Schoolboy Rowe. The team captured a flag again in 1940, though they suffered a disappointing loss in seven games in the Fall Classic.
The 1945 campaign was one of the mos thrilling in Detroit history. Greenberg returned mid-season from service in World War II and hit a pennant-winning grand slam. The veteran team, which was led by pitching ace Hal Newhouser, defeated the Cubs in the World Series for their second championship.
Detroit was the last American League team to install lights, at Briggs Stadium (formerly Navin Field), in 1948. The franchise struggled in the 1950s, rebuilding around younger players but never able to compete with the better teams in the league. The era did produce right fielder Al Kaline, who played for the team for 22 seasons and won a batting title at the young age of 20 in 1955. Kaline became the most popular player in team history.
The Tigers finally integrated in 1958, eleven years after Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier. As a late adopter of black and Latino players, Detroit had to catch up with pther teams in the league. By the mid-1960s they had the core of the team that would challenge for pennants from the late 1960s into the early 1970s. The 1968 Tigers galvanized the city of Detroit one year after riots nearly tore the city apart. The team won 103 games and came from behind to win the World Series in seven games.
After a division title in 1972, the team aged quickly and sunk to the bottom of the standings, while watching the exit of Kaline, and older stars. But a fruitful farm system populated the team with talent by the late 1970s and set the franchise on the course for a great decade in the 1980s. Manager Sparky Anderson arrived in 1979 and guided the team to the best record in baseball in the next decade, winning 90 games three times. In 1984 the team got out to a record 35-5 start and set a franchise mark with 104 victories. They easily dispatched the Royals and Padres in the postseason to win the World Series for the fourth time in team history. Stars on that team included home grown talent Kirk Gibson, Jack Morris, Lance Parrish, Dan Petry, Alan Trammell, and Lou Whitaker. essentially the same group won 98 games and a division title three years later.
The team boasted sluggers like Cecil Fielder and Travis Fryman in the 1990s but could not compete again as the Sparky Anderson years came to a close. A series of managers followed, but Detroit fell on hard times, finishing with a losing record for 12 straight seasons. In 2003, four years after leaving Tiger Stadium for their new home in Comerica Park, they lost 119 games and hit rock bottom. Jim Leyland arrived in 2006 an turned things around, winning an unlikely pennant behind a younger team. For the next decade the Tigers were competitive nearly every season, advancing to the League Championship Series three times and winning two pennants. Pitchers Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer teamed with Miguel Cabrera, Magglio Ordonez, and Pudge Rodriguez to give the team star power in this era of great Detroit baseball. From 2011-14, the team won four straight division titles.

If you love hearty soups, I think you'll really enjoy this dish. High in fiber, folate, protein, and antioxidants, black beans are a great, healthy main ingredient to make a soup a meal.
- 3 cans black beans drained and rinsed
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 14oz can vegetable broth
- 1 1/2 cup canned tomatoes
- 2 tablespoon ketchup
- 2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1/2 tablespoon cumin
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 of lime juice
- handful of fresh cilantro, picked from stems
- greek yogurt, for topping
- cheddar cheese, for topping
- Heat olive oil in a large pot. Add the onions and cook, stirring, about 4 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until you can smell it, about 1 minute. Add the broth, tomatoes, ketchup, Worcestershire, and chili powder. Stir in the beans, turn the heat to high and bring to a boil. Adjust the heat so the soup is bubbling gently and cook 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Chop the cilantro coarsely and stir it into the soup when it has been simmering 10 minutes. Cook until the soup is thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the lime juice. Put half of the soup in a food processor or blender and puree. Mix back together in large pot. Serve with the garnishes.

Film Review: The Eagle Huntress (G) (UK/MONG/USA, 2016) follows an inspiring subject
I have to admit, I don't watch a lot of documentaries, but I've loved the ones I've seen. Some of them haven't felt like documentaries at all, mainly because the stories behind them are a little too one-sided or hard to believe. Films like Super Size Me and Bowling for Columbine have been accused of being false, manipulative as well as misleading. I start off with this because the documentary, The Eagle Huntress, which is released in select cinemas this week, has been accused of being staged, scripted and even acted. But even factoring all of this, does that clench the final verdict that the documentary is a bad viewing experience? In this case, yes and no.... Continue Reading

It's seven p.m., in an indistinguishable neighborhood bar in New York City. There's a man sitting alone with a cup of coffee, his guitar leaning against the wall. A tall, thin, young woman with a slow, elegant gait walks through the door. Without saying a word she approaches him, and sits down next to him. This could be the opening scene of a novel or a French thriller from the 50s, but in reality, it is the start of an extraordinary musical adventure – a first encounter between two musicians destined to fall in love. Magos Herrera, renown Mexican-born jazz singer and resident of New York City, has worked with the best jazz musicians from around the world for many years, combining her Latin roots with the sound of contemporary American jazz, thus, positioning herself among a musical elite. The man sitting in the bar, Javier Limón, is a laureate composer, guitarist and internationally recognized producer, known for his collaboration with Paco de Lucia, Bebo and Chucho Valdes, Avishai Cohen and Wynton Marsalis, among others. He has become an indispensable reference in the genre of Flamenco and future international music.

Skiing is a popular sport and holiday activity in Lebanon. During the winter season, the mountain resorts are not just attracting Lebanese residents, but also visitors from other parts of the Middle East.
Each resort in Lebanon has a different flavor, but Faraya Mzaar (Kfardebian) – the biggest ski area in the Middle East – is a favorite among many, offering good infrastructure and facilities for both tourists and locals, no matter the age. Other popular resorts – the country has six in total – are Laqlouq and Zaarour. The slopes at all resorts are serviced with qualified instructors who teach everyone from first timers to advanced skiers and boarders.

Then there is the Cedars resort, which is ideal for nature getaway seekers, offering a greater challenge for intermediate cross-country skiers at the north end of the Mount Lebanon Range. The resort is no more than a two-hour drive from Beirut, and only an hour from Tripoli. If you are looking for a spectacularly beautiful view on the way up, the Cedars offers one of the most beautiful sceneries of Lebanon.
"Suddenly, all the passengers started moving to one side of the plane and pointing out the windows," said Mrs. Raida Idriss. "I got curious and somewhat concerned, so I looked, only to find the Lebanese mountains covered with snow. It was a breath taking view!" the 55-year old added, recollecting her first experience admiring the view from a plane as a child.
It is little surprise that Lebanon, which is a mountainous country with summits reaching over 10,000 feet, is now being referred to as "The Switzerland of the Middle East."

After a long day of hitting the slopes, it is highly recommended to stop at a restaurant on the way down to refuel and avoid the returning traffic. Many stop for sandwiches and some warm hot drinks and discuss the day's skiing experiences with their family and friends over a hookah, a water pipe also referred to as an arguileh, which brings people together no matter the time, place, or weather.
"Skiing in Lebanon is popular," says the 21-year-old former Lebanese resident Kamal Takieddine, now living in Canada. "But nothing is as popular as the smoking arguileh ritual."
Most people have heard that Lebanon is one of the few countries in the world in which it is possible to go skiing in the morning and go to the beach in the afternoon. The ski season typically runs from mid-December to April, depending on the length and depth of the snowfall. In spring, you sometimes hear of people going skiing in the morning and driving to the coast in the afternoon to water ski. However, the skiing-to-beach concept strictly depends on the time of the year and the weather across the coast. But yes, it is common and there are those that enjoy the rest of the evening relaxing on a boat in the Mediterranean after a long day in the snow.
Everyone in a group of Lebanese skiers that Your Middle East met on the slopes agree that although you can ski for days in other countries, you cannot find the cozy, comfortable, and friendly environment that exists in the Lebanese resorts. Skiing and snowboarding has especially gained popularity with the younger generations here in Lebanon as a sport and hobby, and a way to socialize.
POPULAR STORY – How the Lebanese's dark humor will keep them "sleeping with the fishes"
"I love skiing in Lebanon," 18-year-old Lily Farhat responded. "I have skied in Switzerland before moving to Lebanon, which is very different. But like everyone says, it is the environment and atmosphere of the people around you that changes your experience. The view is amazing and there is a slope for every type of skier, from beginner to professional."

'The Bachelorette' Recap: JoJo Fletcher Sends Two Home Before Hometown Dates
JoJo Fletcher took the men to the countryside in Argentina, where she had three one-on-one dates and a group date with the remaining three guys, resulting in two men being sent home. Get the full recap below of episode seven of this season's "The Bachelorette."
Monday's episode began with the remaining six men leaving Buenos Aires and heading to Argentina's countryside. For the first of her three one-on-one dates, JoJo and Alex went to a ranch, where he learned how to be a gaucho, which is a mix between a cattleman and a cowboy. They first went horseback riding before a gaucho showed them how they spiritually connect to the horses. JoJo and Alex then laid down with a horse and gently stroked it before they themselves kissed.
Over drinks that night, Alex told JoJo he was falling in love with her. But the Bachelorette responded, "I don't feel as excited as I should feel, and that kills me." She explained that she didn't see herself "getting to the point." JoJo then told him she was sending him home. Suffice to say, Alex was not happy, and said "take care" without looking at her, as he got into a car.
Next, the Bachelorette and Jordan took a private jet to a vineyard in Mendoza, where they stomped on grapes with their bare feet and then drank the wine. That was followed by a lot of making out in a hot tub. During dinner later, Jordan said that while he's close with the rest of his family, he doesn't have much of a relationship with his famous brother Aaron, the quarterback of the Green Bay Packers. He then told her, "I am so in love with you," which she acknowledged made her "so happy." The rest of the evening was filled with them kissing. And while there was no rose to be given out, it seemed clear Jordan was safe.
After that, Chase, James Taylor and Robby were slated to go out on a group date, but because of rain, they stayed in a hotel, ordered lots of comfort food, drank lots of booze, and played games, including charades and "Truth Or Dare." During a "dare," Robby stripped down to his underwear, ran down the hotel's hallway, and knocked on guests' doors. Later, while hanging out all together on a bed, James tried to convince JoJo that Robby constantly checks out other women.
When the weather cleared up, Robby and the Bachelorette went outside, where he talked about coming out of a longterm relationship just four months before meeting her. Chase got alone time, too, in a hotel room, where he told JoJo he's "100 percent ready" to bring her home to meet his family because he's in love with her as well. And when James and the Bachelorette were by themselves, he assured her that when she meets his parents, she'll "feel love" because "anyone I love, they love. " At the end of the group date, Robby got the rose.
Following the group date, the Bachelorette and Luke went on the episode's third and final one-on-one date. The date, which involved horseback-riding, was tailor-made for Luke, who grew up on a ranch in Texas and has spent his whole life around horses. They also went skeet shooting. A war veteran, Luke showed off his skills and even helped JoJo take down a clay pigeon. Like the other men, he also told the Bachelorette he saw his future with her.
With Alex already sent home, and a rose in Robby's hands, that left the four remaining men, Chase, James Taylor, Jordan, and Luke, vying for the last three roses. And the stakes were particularly high because the four men who got roses were returning to the U.S. with JoJo for hometown dates, and will introduce her to their families. The first two roses went to Luke and Jordan. Then, JoJo gave Chase the last rose and eliminated James Taylor. She then walked him outside, where they both shed some tears before he graciously thanked her and drove off.

Hello again fellow 'hounds, back with anothercry for help.
So tomorrow I'm investigating a few options for a 1st date. One would be to grab dinner and then head into central park for the Summerstage event going on (Maria Rita is performing, a fabulous jazzy Brazilian musician). My date just recently moved to NY, loves Italian, but has little experience eating here...ie. she thinks Little Italy is good. Unfortunately for me, the UES & UWS are the 2 areas I spend the least amount of time eating. I like 'cesca but it's a bit too expensive/formal for a 1st date. Any suggestions?

Baggies close on Odemwingie
Nigeria striker Peter Odemwingie claims he is close to sealing a move to West Brom.
Last Updated: 17/08/10 6:22pm
Nigeria striker Peter Odemwingie claims he is close to sealing a move to West Brom.
Baggies boss Roberto Di Matteo is believed to have lined up a move for the Lokomotiv Moscow hit-man as he looks to strengthen his attacking options.
Odemwingie has been linked with a move to England for some time and it appears the Baggies are ready to offer the 29-year-old the chance to try his luck in the Premier League.
The former Lille ace claims he has rejected overtures from Panathinaikos to make the move to The Hawthorns.
"Most likely I will join on Tuesday," said Odemwingie. "I've already signed a contract.
"They have been left to negotiate among themselves and then my dream of playing in the English Premier League will come true.
"I opted for West Brom because for a long time I've wanted to play in England. But I thank Panathinaikos for their interest. They are a big club."

3 To B-Oddsmakers
The Future Of The New Top 44
With Las Vegas oddsmaker Vinnie Garibaldi.
After last year's debacle in consulting the tarot cards, this year we decided to consult the experts of experts-Las Vegas oddsmakers. After searching endlessly and utilizing our vast amount of contacts, we finally packed up and drove to Vegas where we found noted oddsmaker Vinnie Garibaldi. Vinnie's odds are highly respected in Vegas, and after checking all the ASP stats, he gave us the following breakdown on how some of the ASP Top 44 will fare this year. (Parenthesis indicate their ASP seed for next season.)
Rob "Mob" Machado (3) 2 to 1-"Now I know this kid ain't Italian-how's he stay so skinny? Anyway, I really love this kid's style. He's creamy smooth like a canoli with the power of a V-8 Cadillac. A real area man for La Familia."
Taj Burrow (6) 3 to 1-"Hey, lemme tell you something-Taj Burrow should be called the Wayne Newton of surfing. I mean, the kid's a real lady-killer, if you know what I'm sayin', and he's just a surfer. It took Wayne tons of Top 40 hits to get his parakeet action. God, I love this sport!"
Andy Irons (16) 4 to 1-"This kid jumps up all the way to sixteenth place and nobody f-kin' realizes it? Gimme a f-kin' break already! If I see the odds climbing on anything, you bet your ass my money's going that way."
Joel Parkinson (37)-5 to 1-"During the '85 NCAA Mens Championship Basketball tournament, the Hubert University Hairhands were 400 to 1 long shots who came out of nowhere to take the title by beating the favored Cornwall State Cornhuskers. Look out for the man called Parko."
Shane Dorian (4) 6 to 1-"This kid looks good. Back in my old neighborhood, all the good-looking guys like Mario 'The Nose' Luciano got all the chicks and all the favors. Add in this guy's big-wave ball sack, and you've got a bonafide winner."
Kalani Robb (9) 8 to 1-"I think it's time for this kid to step up to the plate. I remember when I was a young, just-made wiseguy lookin' for some action with the odds. After being called the next Nicky 'Numbers' Castellano, I finally stepped up with a call on the '69 Mets-the old neighborhood was never the same again."
Sunny Garcia (1) 10 to 1-"Sunny's attitude reminds me of my old cousin Vito "Snapper" Gambino. Vito was a real ball-breaker, if you know what I'm sayin'. He never hesitated to ice stoolies, kinda like what Sunny did to waves all last year. Big earner for La Familia."
Jake "The Snake" Paterson (5)-12 to 1-"Jake obviously took his nickname from my late cousin Snake back in New York City. Extremely deformed, Snake was a weightlifter who only worked on his biceps-he was real strange lookin'. They found him on the bottom of the Hudson with a cement overcoat."
C.J. Hobgood (7)-12 to 1-"Ahh, Florida. Why the hell would this kid leave that place? Someday soon I plan on retiring in Palm Beach with a cooler in one hand and a fine Floridian piece of ass in the other."
Luke Egan (2)-18 to 1-"Back in the day, I used to play poker with an old pal o' mine who we called 'Cool Hand Luke.' You gotta watch him, though-he's got greasy palms."
Cory Lopez (14)-20 to 1-"Cory's like me, a real gambler. I've seen this crazy kid in some of those big tubes-it reminds of all the times I won by letting my money run on long shots at the Foreskin Derby."
Shane Beschen (26)-20 to 1-"Shane's along the same lines as the '74 Reds. Even though they had all-stars like Fred Durgiebull, Stan Stemson, and Pete Moss, they still couldn't get to the playoffs-what a shame."
Mick Campbell (8)-25 to 1-"I tell you what, if this kid takes a punch at me, I'll f-kin' break his goddam legs!"
Damien Hobgood (25)-25 to 1-"I remember the '78 Breeders Cup had these thoroughbreds that were twins sired from the '70 Kentucky winner, Covered In Poo. Those f-kin' horses were so juiced up they ran around the f-kin' track like five times over."
Paulo Moura (43)-25 to 1-"Usually thoroughbreds come from stables in Australia or Hawai'i-never California. One time, though, this horse named'Thong-tha-thong-thong-thong'-a Brazilian horse-came out of nowhere to win the Beastiality Stakes. Watch out for this Paulo kid, he could become a big earner."
Flavio Padaratz (10)-30 to 1-"There used to be this kid in my old neighborhood named Connie. He got so picked on he eventually changed it to Con, which eventually changed to 'The Carnivore.' He breaks a lot of balls these days."
Shea Lopez (11)-40 to 1-"The last time I went to Shea stadium, I ate a bad dog and f-kin' puked all over the A train-not a good sign."
Taylor Knox (28)-40 to 1-"Lately, I've been eating an excessive amount of pasta, and it's definitely showin'. I really wish Taylor would give me one of his workout tapes."
Ben Bourgeois (30)-50 to 1-"Some of the finest college-basketball programs come from North Carolina. Take the North Carolina University Gamecocks-you can tell how they'll do in the tournament by the tightness of their shorts. It never fails."
Pat O'Connell (33)-55 to 1-"This guy's a little too silly for my tastes-always smiling and skipping. What's he so happy about? Did he just get some action, or what?"
Shawn Sutton (32)-60 to 1-"I've never heard of this guy. Maybe he should wear more gold or some shit."
Ross Would Go
The 2001 Quiksilver Eddie Aikau Memorial
If you ever have the chance to watch the "Eddie" live, don't miss it. The invitational event has only been held four times in fourteen years and only when the surf's 25-feet-plus. When the announcement's made that the contest is a go, the invitees scramble from all over the world to make it there in time for the one-day event. In the past, Peter Mel and Flea have both made late-night flights from Santa Cruz and been skunked after the event's coordinator Glen Moncata threatened to hold the contest, but didn't find the conditions up to par with previous year's standards.
This year's 50,000-dollar winner, Avoca Beach, Australia's Ross Clark-Jones, has actually been waiting in Hawai'i every year through the three-month waiting period for his day in the sun. January 13, 2001 was that day-twenty to 25-foot waves with light offshores and slightly overcast conditions made this year's Eddie by far the cleanest in the event's history.
The event format is simple: 24 surfers arranged into six-man heats, each heat lasting one hour, each competitor allowed four waves per heat. Contestants are scored on a scale of one to 100 points, and the two highest scores are combined for the competitor's total score.
Ross Williams caught the first big set wave of the first heat, pulled in behind the boil, but it closed out. The 1999 Eddie Champ Noah Johnson attempted an extraordinarily late drop, but he couldn't pull it off and rag-dolled down the face before he was sent to the beach with a bruised rib. Ross Clarke-Jones also attempted a late drop, but he was successful and rode the shoulder all the way through the bay, scoring a 92. The highlight, however, was definitely the shorebreak closeouts that Shane Dorian and Peter Mel pulled into to light up the crowd through the mid-morning lulls. At the end of the day, the big check belonged to R.C.J-the only non-Hawai'ian to ever win the Eddie.-Matt Patterson
Results of the 2001 Quiksilver Eddie Aikau held at Waimea Bay:
1. Ross Clarke-Jones (Australia)
2. Shane Dorian (Hawai'i)
3. Paul Patterson (Australia)
4. Ross Williams (Hawai'i)
5. Kelly Slater (Florida)

Zen and Science
The empirical core of Zen is zazen, or sitting meditation. The primary article of faith in Zen is that by regularly performing zazen one will eventually experience the same direct understanding and awakening the Buddha experienced when he became enlightened. This is not to say that people who do not practice zazen can get nothing out of Zen, or that other practices cannot have similar effects.
The Buddha emphasized the direct experimental approach, encouraging people to see things for themselves rather than just taking his word for things.

Apostolic Pentecostal Church of the Living God to hold series of revival services
Lately, I've been pondering the story Jesus told of the lost son, or what's more commonly called the parable of the prodigal son.
The son demands his inheritance from his father, which is basically him telling his dad he wishes him dead, and then takes the money and runs far away, squandering his wealth on wild living.
When he ends up broke, he finds a job feeding pigs and finds himself so hungry that he longs to eat the pig food.

The rate of domestic related violence in Kentucky is higher than the national average.
According to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study, in the United States, more than 27 percent of women and 11 percent of men have experienced contact sexual violence, physical violence or stalking by an intimate partner.
In Kentucky, more than 37 percent of women and 31 percent of men are affected by this violence in their lifetime. It is a very real possibility that your neighbor, co-worker or extended family member is in danger right now.
Each fall, just a few weeks before Domestic Violence Awareness Month begins in October, many of the nation's programs that serve those who have been battered or abused take a real-time census of their work over a 24-hour period. By focusing on an otherwise normal day, we can better see the tragic reach of one of society's most enduring problems.

The old political establishment in the cities is fighting back against
the idea of city mayors. They know that a directly elected mayor threatens their traditional power base. As Jill Sherman reports in The Times today,
'In Nottingham, the Labour council has put up posters around the city to demonstrate its opposition while the Labour group has sent newsletters to residents saying that a "Tory
Extra Mayor" will cost £1 million.'
But it is not just Labour councils who are desperately trying to stop yes votes on May 3rd. Lib Dem-run Bristol City Council is also fiercely against the idea of a directly elected
The reason there is so much push-back against the idea of a directly-elected mayor is that these councillors know that the mayoralty will break up the established political order, bringing in a
whole host of new candidates. If voters want both a change and a choice, then they would be well-advised to vote for mayors.

Kellen is an East Michigan-based web developer who builds outstanding, custom websites for charming clients.
The backstory:
I was born in Toronto, then raised in the Metro Detroit area. College at Grand Valley State took me to West Michigan, where I got to know several of my good friends. A few years after marrying my adoring wife and high school sweetheart, we moved to Colorado for a short time, only to trace our roots back home and settle in beautiful Rochester Hills, Michigan.

some pics of blue tpu
Looks nice. I can dig it. I have a black one currently. How much and from where?
I got off ebay for 4 bucks I believe. Found it.
That looks good. How is the fitment? I have a clear tpu case that I got for roughly the same price and it is very snug almost too snug. Also how easy is it to press the power and volume keys? My clear one is a major pain in the rear. I have a smoke one from another seller that has inserts to make it easer to press the buttons (looks like a little cirlular nub on the inside). does this one have those?
Have a few of the blue available:

Do yours have the inserts to make the power button and volume buttons easy to press?

30 Airlines Now Participating in TSAPre✓
11 US-based and international airlines announced today their participation in the TSAPre✓ program. TSAPre✓ is the Transportation Security Administration's trusted traveler program. The program allows travelers who complete a background check and pay a fee to breeze through security at most US airports.
When the program launched, only a handful of airlines based in the United Stated participated in the TSAPre✓ program. For the first few years, the TSA randomly selected passengers that were considered "low-risk" for TSAPre✓. Today, the random selection process is much more limited as the TSA is currently phasing the random selection program out.
Additionally, nearly every US-based airline participates in the TSAPre✓ program. In the past two years, a few major international carriers also announced their participation in the TSAPre✓ program. This allowed passengers on those international airlines to use TSAPre✓ lanes at select US airports.
11 New Airlines, International, and Domestic
Today the TSA and the individual airlines announced this massive expansion. Eleven (11) airlines across the globe announced their participation in the popular "known traveler" program.
The eleven new additions to the TSAPre✓ program are; Aruba Airlines, Avianca, Boutique Airlines, Emirates, Key Lime Air, Miami Air International, Southern Airways Express, Spirit Airlines, Sunwing, Virgin Atlantic, and Xtra Airways
Here's the full list of TSAPre✓ Participants
|American Airlines
|Delta Air Lines
|United Airlines
|Frontier Airlines
|Allegiant Airlines
|Southwest Airlines
|JetBlue Airways
|Virgin America
|Etihad Airways
|Hawaiian Airlines
|Alaska Airlines
|Air Canada
|New Addition
|Virgin Atlantic
|New Addition
|Aruba Airlines
|New Addition
|New Addition
|Key Lime Air
|New Addition
|Sunwing Airlines
|New Addition
|Xtra Airways
|New Addition
|Southern Airways Express
|New Addition
|Spirit Airlines
|New Addition
|Miami Air International
|New Addition
|Boutique Airlines
|New Addition
|Seaborne Airlines
|Sun Country Airlines
When booking a ticket on all thirty TSAPre✓ participants, including the 11 recent additions, TSAPre✓ members will enter their Known Traveler Number. When the passenger checks in, TSAPre✓ should appear on their boarding pass.
TSAPre✓ allows frequent flyers who meet certain security standards to keep their shoes, light jackets, and belts on, their liquids and laptop in their bag, and pass through a dedicated express lane. The TSAPre✓ program should allow passengers to pass through security checkpoints within minutes, even are major airports.
This is fantastic for the TSAPre✓ program. One concern I've always had with the TSAPre✓ program is the lack of international participation. This would mean that, even though I'm a TSAPre✓ member, if I flew on select international airlines I'd still have to go through traditional security screening. With 30 total airlines, many of which are international airlines, this makes TSAPre✓ even more appealing.
What airlines do you want to see as part of the TSAPre✓ program?

Hey @PaigeTurner
Can you please ask your buddies over at Fox Sports why there isn't a Test in Review highlights package (that's the whole 5 days condensed into 2 hours) for the West Indies v Pakistan matches? There wasn't one for the 1st match and I see nothing in the guide for one on the 2nd match.
Hey there @leighz,
I trust all is well in your world.
FOX SPORTS have advised they only ever tend to do reviews for Australian games (as a rule), thus because Australia didn't feature in the matches you mentioned, a highlights package was not put together.
At least your question has made them aware of your interest.
Many thanks for your feedback,

Thanks @PaigeTurner for your quick reply!
Ironically, at least for me, I am willing to devote the time to watch the daily highlights of the Australian matches, so the Test In Review isn't really useful to me. I imagine that's not the case for others though.
However, I don't have the time to devote to a daily highlights of all non-Australian tests, but a 2 hour version is great to be able to see the key highlights and get a feel for how the match progressed. I would think others would definately be in this boat as well.
There is a precident for Test In Review highlights being shown for non-Australian matches. I can remember at least the England v Pakistan, India v New Zealand, India v England and South Africa v Sri Lanka series being shown "In review" over the last summer.
So thanks for following up, and definately registering my vote for non-Australian Tests In Review.
FOX SPORTS showed "highlights" of the 3rd Test last night but I wonder why they bothered.
It was hopeless!
They showed less than half of the wickets that fell during the test, they showed nothing from Day 2 and they showed nothing from the final 4 hours of the match.
Pakistan won with only 7 balls remaining but we saw nothing after the West Indies lost their 6th wicket in the second innings.
Who ever edited the program clearly knows nothing about cricket.
Are FOX SPORTS incompetent, lazy or both?
@zz2015 It appears the version they showed on Thursday was affected by other programming (possible live) and was edited live to be less than 2 hours.
The version they played on Friday was the complete review highlights. It is also scheduled to be replayed again tomorrow (Monday) at 10am.

Adam Morrison might not be the No. 1 pick in next week's NBA Draft, but he seems to be at the top of the heap in the eyes of sports marketers.
The 6-foot-8 forward has already racked up endorsement deals with the likes of Topps, adidas and Electronic Arts, and is on the cusp of signing a Diabetes-related contract that might top the others in value.
Sources told ESPN.com that Morrison's multi-year, seven-figure deal with adidas was signed this week. With the deal, Morrison will join the ranks of the company's other NBA endorsers, which include Houston Rockets forward Tracy McGrady, Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kevin Garnett and San Antonio Spurs center Tim Duncan.
Morrison's deal with Electronic Arts will allow the company to use him in its marketing campaigns, including a commercial that the company shot earlier this month in Los Angeles with the former Gonzaga star. His contract with Topps is an exclusive autograph and memorabilia trading card deal. The company plans to use Morrison on product packaging and in national advertising.
Morrison was clearly helped along by embracing the spotlight in his final season at Gonzaga. He bested Duke's J.J. Redick to become the Division I scoring champ, averaging 28.1 points per game.
Morrison's marketing agent Rob Lefko said that his client's recognition factor certainly didn't hurt when presenting him to companies.
"We started with a huge advantage in that everyone was aware of Adam," said Lefko of Priority Sports, which represents more than 100 players, including this year's draftees Nik Caner-Medley, James Augustine and Shannon Brown. "They knew what he could do and the passion that he plays with."
Some in the media have suggested that Morrison might be the next Larry Bird, a comparison largely fueled by his race. Since the 1992-93 season, only two Caucasian Americans -- Keith Van Horn and Tom Gugliotta -- have been in the top 20 in the NBA in scoring. This past year, only one white American -- the Celtics' Wally Szczerbiak -- ranked in the top 50 in league scoring and only one white American -- David Lee -- was selected in the first round of the NBA Draft (he was picked last by the Knicks).
But Lefko said that Morrison's race was never part of the discussion with potential sponsors and sports marketing pundits don't necessarily think anyone needs a great white hope.
"What the public is craving are great basketball players," said Bob Dorfman, executive vice president and creative director at Pickett Advertising. "It doesn't matter whether they [are] black or white. Look at the top of the list of who is making money off-the-court and you see Dwyane Wade, LeBron and Shaq."
Of the teams that are likely to draft Morrison, most do not play in large media markets. Aside from Chicago at No. 2, Toronto, Charlotte, Portland and Atlanta round out the top 5 picks in Wednesday's draft.
"I think people feel like a bigger market can help, but it's not necessary," Lefko said. "Any company he is aligned with knows that he will be on a team that will give him a lot of minutes early on his career and he will be a scorer, so he'll get a lot of attention."
One of Morrison's biggest endorsement deals is soon to come. At the age of 14, Morrison found out he had diabetes and has an insulin pump hooked into his body to regulate his blood sugar. He obviously takes it out for games, but frequently checks his blood sugar during timeouts.
Given his client's prominence, Lefko says he has had significant conversations with four pharmaceutical companies who are interested in using Morrison as a spokesperson. Morrison is also expected to play a big part in an educational campaign. Lefko said that all the companies that have thus far signed deals with Morrison are planning to donate a portion of his pay to Diabetes-related causes.

It showers. It pours. Mist obscures islands, boats, and cormorants diving for fish. My feet couldn't possibly be more wet, because – once again – I fail at "proper footwear." Crows and gulls pause their duels during the heaviest rain, but are back at odds as soon as the sky clears.

Live in North Island NZ but visit family in Dunedin once a year. Love the hotel as close to the city and very comfortable. Excellent service and all amenities. Love full range of Sky TV -was able to have family over to relax and watch the Rugby. The best place to stay .will come back every time ( even if the city build a new hotel in front of it as planned)
we had an extremely pleasant stay here. The room was spacious and had a good view. Small enough hotel to be really friendly without compromising on a feeling of privacy.Location can't be better....absolutely great.
Enjoyed my stay at this hotel. Beds were comfy, rooms clean and tidy and staff friendly. Good value for money and great location just a short walk to the Octagon.Room had a balcony and a view over the city so it felt roomy. Bathroom was pretty new and it was nice to have your own Sky box if you fancied blobbing out. Would definitely recommend.

WTF: Michael Caine Cast in 'Journey 2: The Mysterious Island'
by Alex Billington
September 7, 2010
Source: Heat Vision
I really didn't want to ever write about this movie, but damnit, Michael Caine went and got himself cast in it and now I have to write about it! Heat Vision reports that the legendary 77-year-old actor will be starring in the Journey to the Center of the Earth sequel being directed by Brad Peyton (Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore). Caine will be co-starring with Dwayne Johnson and Josh Hutcherson, who is reprising his role from the original. The script for Journey 2: The Mysterious Island, loosely based on Jules Verne's "The Mysterious Island," sees Hutcherson travel to a mythical island to find his missing grandfather (Caine).
Apparently his role is not just a cameo either. "The role will see the actor in action mode, engaging in several chase sequences, including one involving giant bees." You know, this news along with Liam Neeson joining Battleship makes me feel like some legendary actors are really scraping the bottom of a barrel with terrible gigs these days, but maybe I'm just being a bit too harsh on these guys (they've got to make a living, right?). Shooting is supposed to start this October in Hawaii and later North Carolina. Beau Flynn and Tripp Vinson of Contrafilm are producing. Warner Bros has scheduled a September 23rd, 2011 release late next year.
I know a lot of people enjoy fun 3D adventures like this, but I personally thought Journey to the Center of the Earth was the absolute bottom-of-the-barrel kind of bullshit 3D movie that should not have even been promoted as a feature film. That kind of insanely gimmicky, poorly produced, 3D adventure is meant to be seen at theme parks and shopping mall carnivals, not in our movie theaters. I stayed as far away from it as I could when it was being released and I'm going to do to the same with the sequel, but because I love Michael Caine so much, I just had to mention this anyway (and voice my opinion about how terrible it all sounds).

On display at the Detroit Auto Show is an all-wheel-drive Cadillac plug-in concept - the XTS Platinum - that is seen to influence its upcoming flagship sedan. The concept has touch screens on the instrument panel and rear-seat entertainment connections.
In a statement, Bryan Nesbitt, Cadillac's general manager, said that this concept is envisioned as an "automotive personal headquarters, using advanced technology to enable new levels of connectivity and luxury."
Cadillac's DTS and STS sedans are expected to be replaced with the XTS by the 2012 model year. However, it remains unsure if the name will be kept. The new flagship will share a vehicle platform with the 2010 Buick LaCrosse but is about 6 inches longer and 2 inches wider than the LaCrosse. Rather than traditional gauges and screens, the concept's interior uses organic light-emitting diode displays.
In an effort to minimize buttons and switches, the designers used touch screens blended into the instrument panel, which appears black until the car is running. Connectivity and infotainment features can be accessed by the passengers in the back seat as well.
For the interior, there are layers of cream, tan and brown that include laser-etched suede on the center console and door trim. The car rides on 20-inch wheels with custom-made Bridgestone tires. A small rear spoiler mounted on the trunk lid incorporates a centered brake light.
Powering the XTS Platinum is a 3.6-liter, V-6 direct-injection engine. The car can run on the electric motor, gasoline engine or both. Recharging can be completed in five hours. This Cadillac concept has been given the ultraluxury Platinum Edition distinction, which has also been attached to certain Escalade, STS and DTS models.

The β Family of Inequality Measures
This paper introduces and analyses, both normatively and statistically, a new class of inequality measures. This class generalizes and comprises different well-known families of inequality measures as particular cases. The elements of this new class are obtained by weighting local inequality evaluated through the Bonferroni curve. The weights are the density functions of the beta distributions over [0,1]. Therefore, the weights are not necessarily monotonic. This allows us to choose the inequality measures that are more or less sensitive to changes that could take place in any part of the distribution. As a consequence of the different weighting schemes attached to the indexes, the elements of the class introduce very dissimilar value judgements in the measurement of inequality and welfare. The possibility of choosing the index that focuses on a specific percentile, and not necessarily on the extremes of the distribution, is one of the advantages of our proposal.
