Puppycino, anyone? Make no bones about it, Brisbane's café scene is waking up to the notion of four-legged dining companions, with savvy operators providing not just permission to have a dog secured in the outdoor dining area but water bowls, dedicated spaces for dogs and owners and even in a couple of cases, puppycinos and one, a doggie food menu.
For those who'd rather not leave their loyal buddies home alone, here are some of the dog friendliest cafés we've found, where owners go the extra mile in canine hospitality:
Java Lounge – Paddington
This bright bustling café fronting the Paddington Antique Centre has a couple of dedicated dog bowls sitting permanently on the footpath and some conveniently placed poles and street furniture to secure the dogs. And no matter how busy it gets Java Lounge can pretty much be relied upon for efficient affable service and to churn out great café nosh.
Brown Dog Café – Woolloongabba
In case of any doubt the name really does say it all – this rustic little café just out of the antique precinct action of Woolloongabba is a welcome spot for man's best friend. Even the menu is a dog-heavy zone with meals such as the Dog's Breakfast, a tasty melee of sour dough, haloumi, spinach, tomato, avo and lemon.With barely enough room to swing a cat inside, most of the seating is outside and plenty of tether opportunities provided for dogs as well as the odd water bowl.
Bean on Dean – Toowong
New kid on the Dean St block is not only a funky spot for a terrific Campos coffee, a side of stencil art and gourmet light meals but has plenty of outdoor seating and tether spots under the wide awning and a tap for filling up dog water bowls.
Our Haus – Hawthorne
Dogs are welcome in this cute little Hawthorne café, with a dedicated pavilion outside where they can sit under the table. The human menu ain't half bad either, with good Merlo coffee, delish baked treats, an extensive breakfast and lunch menu all served with panache and a smile from the friendly owners.
Idea Caffe – Wooloowin
Nestled next door to a vet surgery and only a km or so from the fabulous Kedron Brook dog offleash zone is this little off the beaten track Italian-inspired café which does a good coffee and some great breakfast dishes such as the popular poached egg, kransky and muffin. Out front is plenty of space for dog leashing and permanent bowls of water.
Saabi on Manson – Hendra
With a café that's named after the owner's dog it comes as no surprise that pooches are welcome guests here. And dog or no dog, this is a fantastic gem of a place in an old converted shop in a leafy Hendra street. The owners have created a home away from home, with a cosy dining area inside and an outdoor deck to one side, near which dogs may be secured with a welcome bowl of water. Food is freshly prepared on site with quality (and where possible organic) ingredients, with breakfast and lunch available.
Vanilla Pod – Ascot
A gorgeous little white shop and Ascotian institution, Vanilla Pod is part gourmet providore, part cake and sweet shop, part café. And where it leads, most other Ascot cafes tend to follow, with an outstanding range of sweet treats making it a great drop-in for coffee or tea and cake. Outside under the historic street awning dogs can be tied up in view from inside the shop with a water bowl on hand.
L'Arte Gallery – Hawthorne
This little known treasure of a café come art gallery has a dedicated water bowl and handy awning posts for dogs to be secured while owners keep an eye out from the couches inside while feasting on the German inspired menu. Cakes including the house-baked tarts and rolls that come with a side of rosti are a real treat as is the Vivo coffee and chai tea.
Desmond and Molly Jones – Woolloongabba
This one's about as urban as it gets for city slicker dogs, on busy Stanley St with the Mater hospital around the corner. Yet welcome they are in this funky joint in the heritage listed shop, with the owners providing a bowl of water and plenty of outdoor seating to keep the dog friend company. Food is terrific here too, Greek-influenced and with a signature home made sausage roll.
Milk Bar – Ashgrove
A busy shopping centre coup here at this old world milk bar style café, which is not only a great place to indulge in a bit of nostalgia with malted milks, spider drinks and the like but actually owns the outdoor space adjacent so dogs are most welcome here although water bowl is BYO.
Café La Mer – Manly
By any stretch this café occupies one of the most picturesque waterfront settings to be had, directly on Manly Boat Harbour, with seating on decks over the water and under a shady fig tree. aAnd of course the big bonus is that dogs are totally welcome to join their owners on the deck, with the café providing water bowls too.
Canine Comfort – Gumdale
Taking dog friendly to a whole new level – dog rule – here's a café that is more about the dog than the owners. On the footpath outside dogs are not leashed but contained in makeshift pens, served giant bowls of puppycino, offered a help-yourself trolley of dog treats and given a menu with items such as meatloaf stack and meatballs. And on a regular basis doggie dinners are held where owners bring their dogs out to dine on a three course meal.

No other words to describe the holiday decorations at Disneyland. Unbelievable, gorgeous . . . . magical!
No other words to describe the holiday decorations at Disneyland. Unbelievable, gorgeous . . . . magical!
Spent the day before Thanksgiving at Disneyland we had a fantastic time. Parking was a bit of an issue. Our longest wait was 45 min which was not too bad. Ate at the Rainforest Cafe at downtown disney overall it was a magical day
This is truly the happiest place on earth. I am sure I had a permanent smile while we were there. It is important to choose the time of year not only for the various themes Disneyland has through out the year but also when it comes to wait times. The busier it is the longer the lines. Also expect to... More
It is, literally, painful for me to write this review, and only give Disneyland an average rating. I grew up going to Disneyland, my husband and I are HUGE Disney nerds! We visit Disneyland and Disney World once a year! We planned our annual Disneyland/California Adventure trip for the Monday and Tuesday following Thanksgiving. We don't have kids, and we... More
We always have a special time there, from our daughter getting married at Paradise Pier to now getting to spend time with our grandchildren. We have never had a annual passport so we decided this year to get one so we could spend more time with the kids who always have one and we've had a blast. We don't know... More
Had great two days a Disney on the hopper pass, was extremely busy on one day, our longest wait was one hour but we weren't doing the kiddie rides. Dinner was a bit of an issue on Saturday as everything was fully booked and we hadn't realised it was better to pre book a table so we ended up leaving... More
We had a fantastic time this weekend when we took the "Holiday Time at Disneyland Tour." Our tour guide's name was Austin and he made our experience absolutely delightful. His pacing was perfect and his knowledge of the park and its attractions was vast. A few weeks prior, we had taken the "Walk in Walt's Footsteps Tour." It was also... More
This trip was magical! We took our 5 year old son to Disneyland and Disney's California Adventure for the first time on Thanksgiving Day and the day after. Our son suffers with anxiety and sensory processing disorder, so I was worried about how he would handle the crowds, the lines and all of the new experiences. We visited City Hall... More
Loved everything about it (my last visit was back in 2010..but Trip Advisor won't let me put this..??). We went on "The Pirates of Caribbean" several times, same with "Space Mountain" and "Splash Mountain" That last drop gets my stomach every time lol. There is just a magical feel to Disneyland.... the night fireworks are beautiful and the parades are... More
What needs to be said. Disney is clean and does things right. When it began to sprinkle while waiting in line for breakfast under an awning to the Plaza Inn, they brought us all (about 20 of us) complimentary hot chocolate while they expedited getting us in. If you want to do it right, with or without kids and are... More

3 - 3 Fears:( i also tell'd you about ky fear of scorpions so i will tell another three)
1. Fear of Evil Spirits: My faith is strong, but i fear for others, and sometimes for myself when i'm feeling weak, depressed… Yeah i believe in them, i also believe in holy spirits, and thats what keep my faith, but im talking about others, have you ever think of have to "fight" your friend, or your family trying to kill you?
2. Fear of Conspiracy and Lies: I hate, but mostly i fear of people lying about me, it happened many times, and people i loved steped away from be because of this lies ( i tried to take vegeance on them, but the person who they lied for wouldnt tell me to protect the "liar") many times i lost people i love because of lies, and im terrifyied about that. Everytime someone stop talking to me i think that someone lied to them…
3. Fear of being helpless: i allways try to help people, mostly the loved ones, everytime i feel helpless i begin a battle with myself, i start to be depressed because of it,because i feel weak, impotent.
5 - My best friend
All my friends are my best friends but there is one that is closer to me, he is a japanese, we met in high school and we are friends since then, i call him "Japa" its nickname for japanese here in brazil
10 - how many tatoos/piercings i have
i dont have tattoos, neither piercings :( my father hate it, and i respect him as long i live under his roof, but i want to do a tattoo as soon as possible, and when i make it i plan to put two earrings, one in each ear (no homo) i just find stylish
20 - 3 things that makes me happy
1. Go to somewhere with my closest friends, dont matter where, anywhere its good, their mood its like contagious, if im depressed, quickly i feel happy.
2. Music. When i hear good music, with good lyrics, just makes me smile, i like hearing Classic Jazz and Eletronic music.
3. When random people say good things about me, it just, moods me up hahaha
Se quiserem as respostas das asks em portugues é só por br no final da ask,
29- forbidden and public places really turn me on, skirts, boobs, massages and a sexy face, put all of them together and i can say: By your powers combined, i am captain horny
30- beige pantys and bra, nothing turns me off more than beige cloths
2- My first kiss was a shame for my clan, but good thing is, i didn't even had to ask for it, our teeth keep hitting each others lol it was horrorible, but the great new is that my second one was 100x better (my point of view)
12- I have plenty of "worst dreams" most of them i dream that someone close to me is dying… There was this dream that i was in a huuge ship, it was like those ships on the movie 2012, but mine had like shopping mall, school, parks in it and even houses.it was huge. But at 22pm, all containers begin to close, and whoever was in it gets trapped untill the morning.. Me and my mom, wee fight a lot in real life, and in this dream i fought really bad with her, i said some rude words and strong words… And when i was roaming on the ship thinking about it she called me, saying that she was going to suicide, thanks to me and i became desperate, i started to run for my house but the doors was begining to shut down, then i was running like hell, and trapped, i cried a lot and screamed, trying to break down the doors… Then i woke up, crying like a little baby hahaha, and called her, to tell that i loved her, but she thinked that i was drunk, anyways, i love her.
36- well, all of my guilty pleasures, many of them, are from the deep darkness of hell lol, i hate children, i only like some of them, but i love to see the ones i hate cry, kinda makes me happy to see them suffer, i'm not proud of it. And vegeance, i literally will go to the bottomless pit of hell just to avenge myself from someone, and i will go too, to avenge one of my friends.

My GTO
By Mark Melrose
As most authors of the Goat-of-the- Month start out talking about their first car, I won't vary from the pattern. At age 17 I needed a car in order to make the 20+ mile commute from Buffalo to school at Niagara University. So my first car was a 1965 Ford Falcon Futura, 4-door, 200ci straight-6, with an automatic transmission.

Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger is reportedly planning to set up his own music event in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. It is expected to be along similar lines as Britain's popular Glastonbury Festival.
Entertainment | Music
Mick Jagger to create own music fest?
The event is said to be in line to replace the annual Rock In Rio festival held in September
- Image Credit: AFP
- Mick Jagger is the frontman of the rock band Rolling Stones.
"Mick has put some feelers out in Brazil to put on a big show," femalefirst.co.uk quoted a source as saying.
"The plans are ambitious, but if he pulls it off, it will be huge. The whole vibe of the event is very much 'flower power' and the same hippy values that Glastonbury prides itself on. The publicity drive will begin in the next six months or so, but there's no doubt there will be big names on the bill," the source added.
The event, which is tentatively set for November 2014, is said to be in line to replace the annual Rock In Rio festival held each September.
The legendary rocker might be entering the unknown, but he is doing his research by looking at videos of four years of Glastonbury headliners to prepare for their debut.
"Festivals are great to be at but not always the easiest to play," Jagger said.
"You've got to really work at that bit, but I think it's going to be a lot fun. We're really looking forward to it and I'm thinking about the set list for that day and how we're going to deal with it," he added.

In a lot of ways, Jane by Design is an 80s movie transplanted into the year 2012. I mean, let's be real; the concept is Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead by way of Ugly Betty (and, to a lesser extent, The Devil Wears Prada) and the first half of the first season was as light, fluffy, and innocent as you'd expect from a show like this. Jane may have faced challenges and expectations from her new role at Donovan Decker, but it seemed that she always managed to pull out a victory or come up with a miraculous idea to save an account right before the credits would (theoretically) roll. Cue a wistful, topical pop song about surviving the challenge laying before you and never giving up and boom, movie from 1984 that you'll watch on cable every single time it comes on.
Earlier in the season, there was a decidedly Ferris Bueller-esque chase sequence and now, Jane by Design looked toward Sixteen Candles for its 80s reference du jour. In "The Surprise", it's Jane Quimby's birthday, a time for the young lady to celebrate all that she's accomplished with the ones she loves and take a day to reflect rather than constantly be on the go. But this is Jane by Design and you know it won't quite be that easy, particularly when Ben gets revved up and puts on like he forgot Jane's birthday in order to surprise her later. Cut to all types of misunderstandings, some hurt feelings, and a birthday party that may have ruined Jane's birthday and the relationships of at least two of the show's couples. I tend to get a little nervous when the show amps up the cutesy factor, only because it's such a fine line between being charmingly goofy and being gimmicky and saccharine, but the show really pulled it off this time. Yes, it was a tad cheesy, but it gave the characters a good excuse to gather in two big groups and honestly, it was just fun to watch. Plus, it side stepped the cliche of having Jane going back and forth between the two parties, changing clothes each time before getting caught wearing one outfit at another party, which is another fine example of the show's writing taking a step forward. They managed to make the double parties have the feel-good, delightfully doofy energy that the show has without taking the easy way out.
The thing is, though, with all the storylines going around, there's bound to be a dud in the box. And it looks like that dud might be Nick's, as a scout takes a shine to him and the young pitcher accidentally tweaked his shoulder trying to impress him. I like the actor that plays Nick and I like getting to see Ben in "mother hen" mode, taking pride in his occupation and the accomplishments of one of his players, but I don't feel like we know Nick well enough to really care if he gets into the majors. And what we've seen of him thus far has been fairly inoffensive and non-distinct, so he's not a background player that has gotten the call up to the big time; he's an okay cog in the Jane by Design machine whose major contribution to the show has been kissing Lulu (who has been reduced to one shrill note) and getting broken up with by Jane. Not nothing, but not enough for me to feel invested in his future and injured throwing arm, especially since he's not been that involved in the season to date. He's had one awkward, stilted interaction with Jane and we haven't even seen that much of his baseball life to begin with, which isn't enough to leap into a storyline like this. Given a couple of episodes, it could have felt more natural, but it just didn't do anything for me.
India's little blackmail scheme, meanwhile, still leaves me feeling a bit unsure. I'm glad that they already have Jeremy confessing, both for the sake of his character and the show itself. Have this threat hanging over him for too long, the danger goes away and Jeremy looks spineless not doing something about it, but they managed to get it out into the open. Having it out there could speed the plotline along and keep it from dragging into monotony, though India doesn't seem to have the will to pull the trigger anyway. You could look at that in two ways; either the writers have given the character enough vulnerability and humanity that her inability to ruin a former lover's career exemplifies or they've made the "villain" of Jane by Design inept and toothless. At this point, I don't think it's an either/or case, but if we're going to believe that India is this dastardly presence meant to bring down Donovan Decker, it'd be nice to see her in action again. She had moments of (minor) sabotage earlier in the season, but upon her return, it's been all talk.
Allowing India to become less outwardly evil may have reduced the "danger" that Jane's in, but it's a good sign that the writers have been trying to deepen the characters in the world of Jane by Design. "The Surprise" had three distinct examples of character moments that highlight, arguably, the thesis of the show itself – there's more to people than meets the eye and if you spend enough time with 'em, it'll eventually come to the surface. For example, Ben's palpable hurt in talking about his mother after receiving a card from her puts more emotion into the situation that he and Jane have found themselves in; he's such a happy-go-lucky type of person that something shaking him that much has to have roots deep down in his psyche. The show had previously alluded to the abandonment that the two siblings had went through, but with neither of them ever (really) opening up, it didn't have as much resonance as it could have (or should have). With their mother stopping by, Ben will be opening up emotional wounds long thought healed and that can only ground his character, making him a more relatable presence in addition to a lovable goofball.
The other "surprise" in the episode was that Zoe isn't the oddball bad girl of Billy's dreams. In reality, she comes from a (very, very) wealthy family, not exactly the type of person that Billy was looking for after his time with Lulu. (I figured it out after the look she gave him once he talked about "people like us".) Not only is it telling that Billy fell for another girl with a double-life, it could be the thing that pushes him away from pretty much everybody for good. After coming home from juvie, Billy was already at a distance from the rest of the world, so finding out that the one person he's found solace in (and that accepts him for who he is) isn't who she says she is should be a major, major blow to come later in the season. You want Billy to be happy and to have someone in his life that isn't Jane to rely on, but I actually liked the Zoe reveal, as it too goes along with the "thesis" of the show and gives her a little more shading than previously. Before, she was a pretty charming yet fairly innocuous good-girl-in-bad-girl-uniform, consulting with Rita about transcripts yet dating the school pariah. Now there'll another little wrinkle in her interaction with Billy and there's untapped backstory that they could explore through said interaction. Why did she rebel so hard against her background? What made her decide to not claim her family? And, for that matter, who is her family?
Thoughts, Quotes, & Observations:
-"I wouldn't want things to get to awkward for me."
-"No, that was just small talk. Which I'll avoid using in the future."
-"Don't care. Don't care. This one's okay. Still don't care."
-"Oh, no. She's going to think I got all dressed up for her."
-"Literally? So you've tried every single wing on the planet?"
-Clothing of the Night: I died over India's white trench. Died. I am reviewing this from beyond the grave. You're welcome.
-There was a character named Amanda Clark introduced tonight. Emily VanCamp is getting all the roles right now, apparently.
-I may really, really like Eli and I didn't expect that. If they take Eli/Jane slowly, I may be on board their little love train after all. Their "fake date" was the type of sunny, summery vibe that the show can utilize so well when it needs to, balloon gift and all.
-We never got to see Billy's present to Jane, you guys. What do you think it was? My guess is a piece of jewelry with something engraved on it.
-Team Rita. You?
-I didn't mind the "you're lying about your age, Jane" fake out, if only because it's a birthday episode. Don't push it, though.
-The dad from Smart Guy and Grayson's baby mama from Cougar Town were on the same episode. Awesome.
-Next week on Jane by Design: Jane searches for answers from her mom and Billy wonders about Zoe's sudden change in demeanor.

Boiler room explosion rattles Calif. school
SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — An explosion Tuesday in the boiler room of a high school gymnasium was so powerful it lifted the building's roof and caused heavy damage inside but no serious injuries.
The blast around 7:30 a.m. at Valley High School in Santa Ana was in a girls' locker room and happened before classes began, although some students already were on campus.
Security camera video shows the fiery explosion lift the building's roof as at least a half-dozen people ran from the area. The blast blew doors off their hinges and sent smoke billowing from the building, which houses the gym, locker rooms and offices.
No students or staff were inside, said Deidra Powell, a spokeswoman for the Santa Ana Unified School District.
Four students sitting on a bench with their backs to the boiler room were taken to hospital for injuries described as minor.
"They were more just shook up," Orange County Fire Authority spokesman Capt. Jon Muir said.
Muir said the explosion ripped off a door and blew it about 75 feet, tore at least three other doors from their hinges, knocked down ceiling tiles, and lifted the roof 4 to 5 inches off its load-bearing wall.
"It was a very big deal," he said. "It's fortunate there were no kids inside. It was a big explosion."
The cause is under investigation, though Muir said fire investigators believe a mechanical or gas-related problem may have prompted the explosion since the force of the blast went up and not out.
The campus was reopened around 8:30 a.m. and students attended regular classes. Some courses held near the blast site were moved to a different location.
The school, which opened in 1959, has about 1,800 students.

Why am I flooded with the feeling of sadness and depression every time I go on Facebook?
I can't help but think I got the short end of the stick considering I am 28 years old, hate my job where I do not get paid enough, unmarried, post menopausal (due to Premature Ovarian Failure), can't have children, and just really confused about multiple diagnosis from my doctors? I feel really horrible and want to cry at first. Sometimes even wishing I were dead. Then, It slowly goes away in the next few days. I feel bad for feeling bad whenever good things happen to my friends, but don't know how to change it. Sorry if it sounds like a pity party, it isn't, I swear!

Led by half-civilized mountain man Broken Leg Fitzhugh, the plan is to establish a trading post on the edge of the land he knows--if they can survive the harsh wilderness, competing traders, and brutal winter.

Even though they have all but been immortalized for their gold medal victories in the Olympics, 11 time Olympic medal winner Ryan Lochte and Misty May-Treanor, three-time Olympic gold medalist, said they were reminded of how precious life was when they heard the news of the Boston Marathon bombing on April 15, which killed three and injured more than 140.
"My heart went out to the victims," Treanor said to the audience gathered inside the Ferguson Auditorium on April 16. Treanor and Lochte came to speak as part of the William L. Mayo Prestigious Speakers Series at Texas A&M University-Commerce. "It was a senseless act. Our world is turning into a crazy, crazy place."
Lochte echoed her sentiment, and added he was confused as to why someone would want to bomb such an event.
"Why, why would someone want to hurt people?" He said. "It's a tragedy that people would go that low."
Having competed on the biggest stage in the world multiple times, both athletes said it not only took hard work and dedication, but a mentor to look to for guidance that helped them toward their goals.
For Lochte it was his dad, who he said was his first swimming coach and has been there for him his entire life; and watching Pablo Morales swim in the 1992 Olympics.
"Just watching him being such a good sportsmanship," he said.
Treanor said she was reminded of her dad always telling her that there were a lot of people who would love to have the chance to not only play volleyball, but also to walk or do other daily tasks that are taken for granted.
"My dad told me to play for those who can't," she said. "Look on the bright side and keep moving."
Missing out on prom, saying no to movie nights with friends constantly and having no spring breaks were the norm for the two athletes because of their rigorous training growing up.

Proof the Australian teams aren't firing in Super Rugby

Wing legend and Roar expert David Campese made an interesting point yesterday when he posed the question – why aren't Australian teams scoring tries?
After 17 Super Rugby rounds, the five Australian teams have scored the least tries (161), and given up the most with 202.
The five Kiwi sides are exactly the opposite with the most tries (209), and the least scored against them with 168.
Waratahs expect wide rugby attack from Reds
The South African quintet rests comfortably in between by scoring 178 tries, and having 176 scored against them.
That obviously translates to the New Zealand sides having greater attacking skills, with the tightest defence – the perfect mix.
And answering Campo's question, the Australians, along with South Africa, both lack try-scoring ability and leak far too many five-pointers.
In the breakdown to individual teams, the seven-times champion Crusaders show the way with a points differential for-and-against of plus-128, from the Stormers plus-91, and the Chiefs plus-89.
The Hurricanes have comprehensively scored the most tries (55), from the Bulls (46), and the Chiefs with 44. But the Hurricanes probably won't make the play-offs, the Bulls probably will.
The Chiefs have already qualified.
The Stormers have given up the least tries (18), from the Chiefs (27) and Brumbies 28. The Stormers and Chiefs have already qualified by topping their Conferences, and the Brumbies should follow suit on Saturday by heading the Australian Conference.
The critical 18th and final round clashes.
Let's see if the aggregation of results from the previous 17 rounds means anything:
Hurricanes (53 points) and Chiefs (63) at Wellington.
Hurricanes (55 for-36 against) could cause an upset over the Chiefs (44-27) – Hurricanes 4 points.
Brumbies (58) and Blues (28) at Canberra.
Brumbies (40-28) should spank the defenceless Blues (31-49) – Brumbies 5 points.
Crusaders (56) and Force (27) at Christchurch.
Crusaders (43-31) to have far too much firepower for the Force (27-45) with no David Pocock – Crusaders 5 points.
Reds (53) and Waratahs (35) at Suncorp.
Reds (33-34) will have to work to grab a try-bonus win over the Waratahs (31-38) – Reds 4 points.
Stormers (62) and Rebels (30) at Newlands.
Stormers (26-18) have the lowest tries scored, the lowest against, and not scored four tries in any game, but have won the most games of any team (13), and too good for the Rebels (34-57) – Stormers 4 points.
Sharks (54) and Cheetahs (38) at Durban.
Sharks (43-31) should clean up the Cheetahs (35-43) – Sharks 5 points.
With the Bulls (54) and Lions (25) at Loftus.
Bulls (46-36) to crush the lowly Lions (28-48) – Bulls 5 points.
The final table could look like this:
Stormers – 66.
Chiefs – 63.
Brumbies – 63.
Crusaders – 61.
Sharks – 59.
Bulls – 59.
Hurricanes – 57.
Reds – 56.
While in statistical mode, 2,307,256 spectators have watched 113 games, averaging 20,418 a game.
And there have been 552 tries scored in the 17 rounds, averaging 4.88 a game.

Like the cricket term catches win matches, sam in rugby forwards win matches not backs. So maybe we just lack forwad depth coz aussy rugby right now has some exciting backs, but we are bit thin in the forwards not top heavy.

The Werewolf said | July 12th 2012 @ 6:07am | Report commentI think you just need to look at all the aussie teams for and against. All but the brumbies are in the negative. Wheras there are only 2 NZ and 2 SA sides in the negative.
But lets also remember that with 5 franchises our talent has been spread and this is a good thing for the wallabies.
Historically, pre Bulls winning super 14 the south africans always did poorly at super rugby but were always ultra competitive at the tri-nations.
July 12th 2012 @ 7:45am
formeropenside said | July 12th 2012 @ 7:45am | Report comment"talent has been spread and this is a good thing for the wallabies"
Yes, because we introduced a 4th and 5th side, and diluted the talent produced by Queensland, and to a lesser extent, NSW, the Wallaby performances have improved. Post 2005, things have been peachy!
This statement is demonstrably wrong, and is only supportable by reference to the "long-term benefit " argument (where long-term is defined in excess of the 7 years of Force we have had already).

Jutsie said | July 12th 2012 @ 9:55am | Report commenthow was aus rugby in the 2003-2006 period prior to expansion?
You may not like the argument but long term gain is the reason and is required, short term thinking is what has got us in this mess in the first place.-
July 12th 2012 @ 10:19am
formeropenside said | July 12th 2012 @ 10:19am | Report commentMade a RWC final in 2003, beat the defending world champions in 2004 home and away. Even drew a series against the AB's in 04 (which we did not do again, and have not since, until Connolly in 07).
Then there was 2005, which was ruined by Eddie Jones, who then went on to ruin the Reds in 2007.
And the pre-expansion period was until 2005, and the mid-season defections cruelled the Reds that year, so its 2004 is probably the last year "pre-expansion", rather than "2006″ when we in fact had the Force in action.
July 12th 2012 @ 10:36am
Jutsie said | July 12th 2012 @ 10:36am | Report commentWe may have made the final in 2003 but it was a hardly convincing year for the wallabies, just like we may have made the semis last year but it was hardly a convincing performance.
We lost by huge margins to both poms and AB's at home prior to the world cup in 2003 and also lost the bledisloe for the first time since 97.
Also we drew a series with the AB's last year. Think the bigger issue regarding bledisloes is the ARU chasing the mighty dollar and organising 4 bledisloe's in a calendar year making it nearly impossible for the wb's to regain it as that would require beating the best team in rugby 3 tests to 1.
Anyway whether results are better or worse aus has a problem with player depth so I am all for short term pain at the super level for long term gain at the test level.-

Lorry said | July 12th 2012 @ 5:06pm | Report commentJutsie,
but the point is we still got there!!!
The French didn't deserve to be there, but we did..
Anyway, that's the beauty of (real and competitive) World Cups. Look at the soccer world cup, not many different teams win, but a wide variety get to the final rounds!
After the soccer world cup, rugby's is the closest. Leagues is obviouslt a joke, cricket and hockey's are ok, basketball's and baseball's would be more prestigious but are rendered a bit of a joke as the US doesn't *really* make an effort to send their best teams…
On another note:
The Wallabies are currently (and usually) between 2nd and 4th or 5th best team in the world. Fans should get used to that. The only real problem is that union has lost popularity to league and aussie rules here – partly to do with the super teams in Aust, and the wallabies, but also just because league has recovered and AFL is just so dominant outside of NSW and QLD – these are things we as rugby fans can do very little about, unfortunately.As my mate who works at Norths rugby club said, who would attend the ARC rugby championship if it was resurrected? There's just not enough support for the game to watch the 3rd tier…
I do think the Super teams should get out of their home grounds more, especially with the extended season i.e. games in Adelaide, rural areas, Darwin, Hobart etc…
Then, later, we can think about ARCs etc

AndyS said | July 12th 2012 @ 12:07pm | Report commentNo question about that mania, but I also agree with El Gamba – you need backs that have better ball passing, handling and running skills than forwards. The Force don't have it, and the Wallabies don't seem much better – the backs simply grab the ball and run at the nearest player like an undersized forward. If we are going to do that, we might as well pick two packs.
July 12th 2012 @ 12:12pm
mania said | July 12th 2012 @ 12:12pm | Report commentEl Gamba & AndyS – its not a hard fast rule, but as an example, all force need are some decent backs, starting from 10 onwards, then they'll be a better all round team. as opposed to rebels who have a decent backline but cant hold onto the ball because they didnt invest in enough quality forwards.
learning to play in the forwards is much more technical than playing in the backs, which is why imho they're worth more. but thats just an opinion-

Wilson said | July 12th 2012 @ 1:16pm | Report commentThe long term injury list also includes (minor injuries not noted): Gene Fairbanks (Season ending Neck Injury), Justin Turner (2nd back to back knee recon), Napolioni Nalaga (many niggles all season), Cameron Shepperd (his usual self before season ending wrist), James Stannard (Season ending Knee), Patrick Dellit (Season ending leg)
If we look at the backs we have had: Richard Brown (coming back from double shoulder recons), Kieran Longbottom (Season ending neck), Salesi Ma'afu (Season ending broken arm), Ben McCalman (Season ending Shoulder nerve damage), Sam Wykes (Shoulder then season ending knee).
With no academy and reduced community funding WA is in serious need of concessions from the ARU. One additional international is good but a little token given the seriousness of the situation. Too little, too late.

Xiedazhou said | July 12th 2012 @ 4:16pm | Report commentWell KPM their coach didnt leave so much as he was pushed, after announcing he was going to the Reds next year. I thought at the time the more mature response from the Force would have been to express disappointment, but to knuckle down and rely on the professionalism of the players and the coach to continue to seasons end. The Force should surely have seen that dismissing the coach mid season would be more disruptive and detrimental than continuing with him.
July 12th 2012 @ 11:53pm
Blue Blood said | July 12th 2012 @ 11:53pm | Report commentX from what I heard the player were rather put off by the statements made in the media by Graham during his announcement, more than the announcement itself. He was also already deeply involved in the recruitment of players for 2013 which was a direct conflict of interest. The icing was that a number of senior players had also recently been contacted by the Reds to leave the Force for 2013. The players understandably would feel that this was far from ideal and more than enough reason to give him an early release from duties. Tough decision but one I support
July 12th 2012 @ 12:27pm
Jutsie said | July 12th 2012 @ 12:27pm | Report commentgood point Mania, u rarely see the force getting blown of the park like the rebels have because their pack will generally grind a game out.
The rebels have the same issue that has plague most aus teams, poor set pieces and inconsistent performances at the breakdown. When the pack is on song the rebels look a million dollars (see crusaders, bulls games) but when they dont turn up theres not much the stars in the backline can due like in the hurricanes game.
I think the rebels have got really good 2nd row stocks and their depth in no 6 and 8 is quite good too but they desperately need some decent front rowers and a pilfering style openside now that lipman is retiring.-
July 12th 2012 @ 12:36pm
mania said | July 12th 2012 @ 12:36pm | Report commentyeah jutsie, front row is where it starts. if the front row are completing their roles then the locks can do higher level (a bit looser) stuff. if all the tight5 are performing then the loosies can solely concentrate on tackling, turn overs and linking.
if the tight5 arent cleaning out and securing rucks then the loosies have to pitch in meaning they dont have time to do the higher level dynamic visable stuff. team work and everyone has to do their roles but for me it starts with the front row
July 12th 2012 @ 12:37pm
AndyS said | July 12th 2012 @ 12:37pm | Report commentCertainly agree with that too, mania. The Rebels seem to be following the Force trajectory to some extent, albeit with a bit more success – starting with a bunch of star backs, then finding out that'll only get you so far. The pendulum now seems to have swung to the other extreme for the Force, with equally poor results. As you say though, it ought to be easier to find backs (assuming they can keep the forwards intact in the process), although 9/10 is always a bit of a challenge in Australia.
July 12th 2012 @ 12:42pm
mania said | July 12th 2012 @ 12:42pm | Report commentlol andyS. i started as forward then moved to the backs. when asked why i told them "minimum work, maximum glory". backs are a dime a dozen, just get some league players or some islanders and they're half decent backs. finding decent forwards tho is diffilcult.

The fact they will not make the play-off means they would not advance had they made it. The Highlander last week looked far better than them. They should have beaten the Reds, but were chasing four tries, and it backfired.
The Brumbies are playing winning rugby. They are playing the way test rugby is played, and i think that will carry them further into the finals. The Reds might have beaten the Brumbies twice, but there was not much in it. They won at Suncrop when Ayop awarded a try despite Higginbottom being out, and they won at Canberra when Holmes missed a penalty in the final minutes. So both games could have gone either way. At the moment, i think the Brumbies are a better team than the Reds.

Lock said | July 12th 2012 @ 10:08am | Report commentTotally agree the Reds would have gone further than the Brumbies. It may sound incongruent to make such a statement but sport isn't a science. The Brumbies whilst technically and statistically superior this year to the Reds, I fear in Finals rugby they will not have the on-field, match-day poise to win games. The Reds on the other hand lost in South Africa with many top-shelf players absent, and then lost to the Force. This loss in Perth was surely the match that cost them the season. I believe if the Reds had made the Finals then, with the team now essentially back to strength (except Horwill), they would be able to mix it with the big guns from NZ and South Africa. Its not just the Finals experience they have, but the experience the individual players possess at the highest levels (that the Brumbies don't have). There's no logic to this belief based on performances, its just one of those things that you know to be true in sport.
July 12th 2012 @ 4:11pm
Xiedazhou said | July 12th 2012 @ 4:11pm | Report commentYes the loss to the Force looks like it will cost the Reds (following a disasterous tour to SA) but so will the loss to the Crusaders. The Crusaders were there for the taking. Any season is full of what ifs, and this one is no exception. If the Reds fail to progress, it will be disappointing for Reds fans (me included) however we will have to take solace wherever we can find it. The Reds this year have not been anywhere near as consistent as they were last year, however their performances against the NZ sides this year shows that they could have been a factor at the business end of the season. Congrats to the Brumbies for their performances this year, however I doubt they will have the other teams too worried should they make the finals. The Reds beat them twice this year, despite being well below their best. While there is life there is hope, and I'm still hopeful the Reds might make the finals and then give them a real shake. The odds are stacked against them however.

I received a call a day later to say a sample via email was being sent for me to preview. Their names were added per my request. I received my order 6 days after it was placed. 4 days sooner than expected. I am VERY happy with the card. I would recommend this site to everyone."

Porsche to unveil plug-in hybrid car
Updated On: Apr 05 2013 06:36:27 AM CDT
Porsche will unveil a new plug-in hybrid version of its Panamera four-door car at the Shanghai Motor Show in China later this month. It will be Porsche's first plug-in hybrid car.
Prices for the Panamera e-Hybrid will start at $99,000. The German automaker currently has two hybrid models already in production, versions of the Panamera and Cayenne SUV, but this will be the first that can be plugged in to charge its batteries from an external power source in addition to using energy generated by a gasoline engine.
The Panamera e-Hybrid is part of an expansion of the Panamera line-up which will now also includes larger extended-wheelbase versions of the car which are almost six inches longer than the base model. While the extended wheelbase models were created primarily for the Chinese market, Porsche spokesman Calvin Kim said they will be available for customers in the U.S.
With a 95 horsepower electric motor in addition to 3.0-liter V6 gasoline engine, the Panamera E-Hybrid will have a maximum power output of 415 horsepower. It will have an all-electric driving range of about 20 miles on a full charge, which will power it for about two-and-a-half hours, according to Porsche. It will be able to drive at speeds up 84 miles per hour in all-electric mode. Using all available power, it will be able to go from zero to 60 miles per hour in 5.2 seconds with a top speed of 167 mph. Fuel economy figures are not yet available.
Prices for the 2014 Panamera will range from $78,000 for the base model to $161,000 for the Panamera Turbo Executive, a high-performance extended-wheelbase car.
Porsche has another plug-in hybid in development, the Porsche 918 Spyder high-performance sports car. Customer deliveries of that car, which sells for prices starting at around $850,000, are expected to begin by the end of this year. Deliveries of the Pananera E-Hybrid are expected to begin before then. Porsche is part of Germany's Volkswagen Group.

Channing & Matthew McConaughey look crazy sexy in the first official trailer for 'Magic Mike.' We can't wait to see it! Channing Tatum isn't shy about his pre-Hollywood life as a stripper. In fact, he's proud of it! And he's showing off the skills that made him a sexy sensation in his new movie Magic Mike, which also stars Matthew McConaughey and Alex Pettyfer as -- what else -- strippers! Also starring Olivia Munn and Cody Horn, the movie tells the story of a stripper who learns there's more to life than being -- as Zoolander put it so eloquently -- "really, really ridiculously good looking." Our only complaint about the first official trailer is that it fails to showcase some of the other guys we're excited about, including True Blood's Joe Manganiello and White Collar's Matt Bomer. We'd take either one of them over 1,000 Alex Pettyfers any day. »
