Gear Review
Not to shaby
Member since
Hey this is a great bag with very little flaws, very durable but at a price. The bag is a little heavy, but is great for those who want to get away from external storage and just use the bag to pack everything in it plenty of room with two good access points. It's missing the bottom access area which most people like to have for quick access to the sleeping gear. Over all great bag have used for many over night trips. I would suggest getting a rain fly for the bag those wish it came with the bag.

I am a Milton Keynes based photographer, but much of my photography is taken outside the area (especially in Kent).
I do not specialize in one genre, although my passion is with wildlife photography. I have found a talent for lifestyle portraits but I don't include that work here as it is of a much more personal nature to the person/people being photographed.
Please enjoy my work, and if you like what you see why not purchase one for your own home, or as a gift for someone special.
I'm not a pro photographer, but I do know quite a bit about the field as I run a global photography resource: http://www.fatphotographer.net Pop by and see if we have something you like, from tutoials to news stories, reviews to links to thousands of photography websites from all over the world (all seperated into geographical regions). We aim to be the number 1 photography resource one day.
Other work of mine can be found on Flickr or a number of stock photography sites as well as featured on sites like www.fatbirder.com, www.surfbirds.com and many more. As well as a few published photos in local magazines and leaflets.

Help please: second Dr. C visit... BAD CM... any ideas?
Hi there - I'm reading this thread completely exhausted after a long day, but if one of the questions is if you can pay Cooper/Check without any insurance involvement, the answer is yes. I did this for my recent IVF. I had been getting b/w monitoring covered because it was not IVF coded and didn't want to jeopardize this coverage so specifically went into the billing office at Cooper before my IVF and told the women there that I didn't want any part of my IVF run through insurance, to which they agreed. Hope this is helpful and also Repro Labs does not actually accept insurance (at least for u/s) so they may be a good bet too. I monitor in Manhattan on east 30th and like the women there very much. GL.
Also, the post-coital test is the only test I have ever passed in this whole IF journey/battle, so it's one of my favorites

Progressive Insurance...
Progressive Insurance.
Who are they?
PROGRESSIVE INSURANCE is owned by Peter Lewis: Who is he? Read this...
You've seen and probably smiled at the clever Progressive Insurance TV commercials.
Well, as Paul Harvey would say, "You're about to learn the rest of the story".
You know their TV commercials, the ones featuring the ditsy actress all dressed in white.
What you might not know is that the Chairman of Progressive is Peter Lewis,
one of the major funders of leftist causes in America .
Between 2001 and 2003, Lewis funneled $15 million to the ACLU,
the group most responsible for destroying what's left of Americas Judeo-Christian heritage.
Lewis also gave $12.5 million to MoveOn.org and America Coming Together, two key propaganda arms of the socialist left.
His funding for these groups was conditional on matching contributions from George Soros, the America-hating socialist who is the chief financier of the Obama political machine.
Lewis made a fortune as a result of capitalism, but now finances a progressive movement that threatens to destroy the American free enterprise system that is targeting television shows on Fox News.
Lewis is making a fortune off of conservative Americans (who buy his
auto insurance) that he then applies to dismantle the very system that
made him wealthy. He's banking on no one finding out who he is, so STOP buying Progressive Insurance and pass this information on to all your friends.
Chairman Lewis' gift helps the ACLU promote their anti-Christmas agenda such as:
· Removing nativity scenes from public property
· Banning songs such as Silent Night from schools
· Refusing to allow students to write about the Christian aspect of Christmas in school projects
· Renaming Christmas break Winter break
· Refusing to allow a city sponsored Christmas parade to be called a Christmas parade
· Not allowing a Christmas tree in a public school
· Renaming a Christmas tree displayed on public property a Holiday tree
In addition to their war on Christmas, the ACLU uses gifts like that from Chairman Lewis to:
· Sue states to force them to legalize homosexual marriage
· Force libraries to remove porn filters from their computers
· Sue the Boy Scouts to force them to accept homosexuals as scout leaders
· Help legalize child pornography
· Legalize live sex acts in bars in Oregon
· Protect the North American Man Boy Love Association whose motto is "sex by eight or it is too late"
· Censor student led prayer at graduation
· Remove "under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance
· Remove "In God We Trust" on our currency
Verify at: http://www.snopes.com/politics/business/peterlewis.asp
or: http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/a/aclu-lewis.htm
All of a sudden I don't care for their "funny commercials".

Gracie - Proud Conservative 2012/07/03 02:44:16+4I found out that Progressive Insurance is progressive and I've never even tried to do business with them. I don't fund my union so I surely won't fund these creeps!

While we were away we stopped off at a lovely lake in the Forest of Dean call Mallard's Pike. We have been there many times before albeit better weather. There were planty of Mallard's on hand and this single Mandarin. The weather was none too kind, being wet, overcast and misty as well as cold. We only stayed for a short while, just enough time to feed the Ducks and take a couple of snaps. I hope you like him. Mandarin's always remind me of Emperor's in their golden silk robes with ornate designs.
Thanks for all the C&C's on my Robin, all are very much appreciated.
Have a good week and let's hope the weather improves.

KATHMANDU: World Health Organisation (WHO) – South East Asia Region today urged governments to prioritise prevention and control of non-communicable diseases (NCD).
A press statement issued by the WHO regional office mentioned that they had issued 'Jakarta Call for Action' to combat the rising burden of NCD.
NCD are the leading cause of death in the 11-member states of Southeast Asia Region, accounting for 54 per cent of all deaths.
The rapidly rising trend of NCD has threatened poverty alleviation efforts and economic growth in the region, mentioned the statement. It also pointed out that NCD have a considerable economic impact as working-age adults, accounting for a large proportion of NCD burden in the region. It will reduce the Gross Domestic Product by an estimated one to five per cent in low and middle-income countries experiencing rapid economic growth, said WHO.
However, NCD prevention and control programmes have remained a low priority and are not included in the Millennium Development Goals. As a developmental and societal issue, NCD deserve to be given priority within official development assistance, mentioned the statement. WHO has called for investment in primary health care to address NCD, particularly focusing on health promotion and primary prevention. The primary health care approach is one of the most important strategies for combating NCD, read the statement.
WHO also said action plan by health ministries alone will not be adequate to reverse the NCD epidemic as the role of other sectors will be vital for creating environments to promote healthy lifestyles.
NCD are largely preventable by effective and feasible public health interventions that tackle major modifiable risk factors - tobacco use, improper diet, physical inactivity, and harmful use of alcohol.
However, poverty, low levels of literacy and limited access to health care are important social determinants and an additional challenge for NCD prevention and control efforts in the region, said WHO.

Camacho Triple Maduro Robusto Reviews [view details]
Give us YOUR review!Showing 1 through 1 of 1 reviews
"Complete Fail !!"
Terrible cigar ! Be prepared to relight every quarter inch ! To much maduro leaf thickness is my guess as to why this cigar is a burn fail. All 5 sampled performed horrible. Trayed everyone for another dependable stick. "It stinks" because the concept of all maduro is needed and camacho really did not deliver on this one. The flavor is not great at all anyway. It is all full bodied charcoal burnt chocolate french roast coffee on the burner for to long cigar. The appearance is the only thing going for this pitch black stick. Save your cash....

Aromatic application involves inhaling either a fine mist of the oil or a vapors that have evaporated from the oil. Inhalation of the oil, or aroma can be a powerful way to affect memory, hormones or emotions.
Here are some ways to use essential oils aromatically.
Diffusion: There is a whole science behind the oxygen and molecules affecting the oils that I won't get into with how diffusers work. Basically, a diffuser does just that, diffuses the essential oil into the air which remains there for several hours to freshen and improve the quality of air. Essential oils, when diffused, have been found to reduce the amount of airborne chemicals. Beware: Diffusers with an intense heat source may alter the chemical makeup of the oil.
Direct Inhalation: Obviously, this is the simplest way to inhale the aroma directly from the bottle. You may also apply 1-2 drops of oil onto your hands, cup over your mouth and nose and inhale.
Cloth or Tissue: Put 1-3 drops of oil on a paper towel, cotton ball, tissue, towel etc. and hold it close to your face and inhale.
Hot Water Vapor: Put 1-3 drops of oil into hot water and inhale. Heat may reduce some of the benefits.
Vaporizer or Humidifier: The cool mist types are best, since heat as we know reduces the benefits.
Fan or Vent: Put oil on a cotton ball and attach to ceiling fans or air vents. This can also work well in a vehicle since the area is so small.
Perfume or Cologne: Apply 1-2 drops of oil to the wrists or neck, or create a simple perfume or cologne by dissolving 10-15 drops of oil in 20 drops alcohol and combining this mixture with 1 teaspoon distilled water. Apply or mist on wrists or neck.
I personally like the aromatic benefits of doTERRA's Elevation Blend. I inhale this in the morning to get me perked up for the day. Recently I applied it topically by putting 1 drop behind each ear and I felt more rejuvenated.
This information was taken from the book, "Modern Essentials – A Contemporary Guide to the Therapeutic Use of Essential Oils, Pages 31-32."

please dumb things down as much as possible. Electronics is not my forte by any means.
I have a few of these cheap ebay lights that are functional and bright, but not very reliable. the LED is an cree xml. i cut the wires when the switch completely stopped working. all i would get is a dim mode. no on off function. it was either "on dim" when plugged in or "off" when unplugged.
To my knowledge the led is still in good shape. The battery packs are fine. I assume what i need to replace is the switch/chip? can someone give me some guidance what i can buy to replace it.

18 September 2012 Aston University
The European Bioenergy Research Institute (EBRI) at Aston University in Birmingham has been shortlisted for two prestigious national energy awards. EBRI is through to the final stage of both the Energy Institute Awards and the Green Gown Awards for its Pyroformer™ technology - an innovative sustainable energy solution developed by EBRI researchers – that could dramatically reduce the world's reliance on fossil fuels.
The Pyroformer™ offers the solution to many of the problems other renewable energy solutions have generated. The EBRI Pyroformer™ uses a patented heat transfer mechanism to pyrolyse and chemically process waste material in a single step using a coaxial Archimedes screw system and an externally heated jacket. Tests show that unlike other bioenergy solutions, the Pyroformer™ has no negative environmental or food security impacts. Its use of multiple feedstocks means it does not require the destruction of rainforests or the use of agricultural land for the growth of specialist biocrops. The process is emission free and the Pyroformer™ is capable of processing up to 100 kg/h of biomass feed and when coupled with a Gasifier it will have an output of 400 kWeI – the equivalent to providing power for 800 homes.
EBRI has been shortlisted in the 'Technology' category of the Energy Institute Awards 2012. These Awards recognise individuals and organisations in the global energy industry who are setting new standards of excellence and innovation and who are developing the technologies and initiatives world economies need to succeed. The winners will be announced at an Awards Ceremony hosted by Colin Jackson CBE (former World, European and Commonwealth 110m hurdles champion) in London on 15 November.
The EBRI Pyroformer™ has also been shortlisted in the 'Research and Development' category of the Green Gown Awards 2012. Now in their eighth year, the Green Gown Awards, run by the Environmental Association for Universities and Colleges (EAUC), are recognised as the most prestigious recognition of sustainability excellence within the further and higher education sector. The 'Research and Development' category celebrates research-based and knowledge-transfer activities within universities and colleges which have had tangible effects on sustainability. The winners of the Green Gown Awards 2012 will also be announced in November.
Professor Andreas Hornung, Director of EBRI at Aston University, believes EBRI's work offers more than just energy solutions: "We believe the Pyroformer™ will be a key stimulator of growth and jobs and the reaction of the business community so far has been extremely enthusiastic. Being shortlisted for these awards has confirmed EBRI's importance in delivering real-life solutions for tackling biomass residues and waste, with both environmental and financial benefits for households, businesses and local authorities. If you are looking for a clean energy source that ensures energy security and market growth without damaging people or planet, EBRI already has the solution."
The Pyroformer™ offers the solution to many of the problems other renewable energy solutions have generated

China's authoritarian regime shared many of the same characteristics and challenges as the Arab autocracies, so why did an 'Arab Spring' never materialize in Beijing?, asks a leading political scientist.
The collapse of regimes like Hosni Mubarak's in Egypt, which many considered "an exemplar of…durable authoritarianism" was a salient reminder to many that such revolutions are "inherently unpredictable," writes Stephen Hess, a specialist on contentious politics in authoritarian regimes.
Before long some began to speculate that the protest movements might spread to authoritarian states outside the Arab world, including China. Indeed, the Chinese government was among those that feared the unrest would spread to China because, as one observer noted, China faced the same kind of "social and political tensions caused by rising inequality, injustice, and corruption" that plagued much of the Arab world on the eve of the uprisings.
One set of explanations has centered on social and economic drivers. According to this reasoning, unrest in the region was driven by a highly discontented and mobilized society. Youth unemployment and official corruption enraged Arab citizens and the diffusion of new communications technologies, particularly social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter, enabled individuals to channel these grievances into effective anti-regime collective action.
One shortcoming of this explanation is that the same sources of discontent and social media websites are available throughout the developing world, but successful revolutions are rare.
So why have Chinese citizens trended towards localized protests rather than the national protest movements seen in the Arab spring? As discussed in an important body of research, one source of this difference is linked to the structure of the state itself. In China, unlike most autocracies, the state is highly decentralized. Local governments are given a substantial level of autonomy over development policies as well as social management – decisions related to dealing with popular challengers through repression or alternatively, the extension of concessions.
Since local authorities make decisions over the carrots and sticks used to address the demands of citizens with a high degree of autonomy, these officials rather than the national leadership or regime are the primary target of most protest actions. In fact, it is a common phenomenon in China that aggrieved locals will appeal to central authorities for assistance against corrupt local officials. Thus, the struggles faced by everyday Chinese are often directed at particular local officials and local issues, limiting the desire of protestors to take the dangerous leap of coordinating their actions across local communities to challenge the regime itself.
As a consequence, much like the Middle East, the years 2011 and 2012 have been ones characterized by very high levels of protest activities in China. However, because of the decentralized nature of the Chinese state, these battles have been ones won and lost by claimants contesting local officials rather than challenging the regime itself.
Steve Hess is an Assistant Professor of Political Science and East Asian & Pacific Rim Studies at the University of Bridgeport's College of Public and International Affairs. He is the author, most recently, of the forthcoming article in the International Political Science Review, "From the Arab Spring to the Chinese Winter," from which this piece in The Diplomat was adapted.

However, in a letter to "Houston Sky," MUFON spokesman Tom Deuley writes, "The statement is incorrect and has misled some people to think that the UFO groups are suddenly rich."
Deuley's letter continues: "We have not become suddenly rich, and there is no million dollars. What has happened, however, is that at the end of several sets of discussion, major donors have agreed to assist MUFON, CUFOS and FUFOR in supporting specific projects that the three UFO groups unanimously agree is [sic] worthwhile. In terms of new research money this is it, nothing more.
"As we go into the future, and as we find worthy projects to support, we may well total a million dollars someday. The hope would be that as we find success we will also find additional contributions to the cause."
In a second letter to Michael Lindemann, Mr. Deuley says, "in...situations that I am aware of, donors of significant amounts of money just do not want to have their names brought into the public eye. In one situation it has caused a donor to back away, and has likely cost us some opportunities."
Deuley also notes that "there are a number of rather nasty rumors running around out there regarding what is going on with this 'getting together' of these three [UFO] groups...We have been accused of being very secretive, yet few have even bothered to contact us." Here Deuley is referring to the fact that the three groups have been running ads in a number of publications, inviting people to submit research proposals worthy of funding support. "Tell anyone they are free to contact us for either grant proposal forms, or for information concerning us," Deuley says.
CNI News recognizes that some donors of UFO research funds desire anonymity. The name Robert Bigelow, however, is well known and has been associated with major UFO projects for a number of years. CNI News assumes Mr. Bigelow does not object to his name being mentioned in this regard, but we do apologize if our previously published information was inaccurate.

Thursday - 26 August 2010
No. 153/2010
School operation in upper secondary schools in 2009-2010
The total number of teaching days and examination days in upper secondary schools in 2009-2010 was between 161 and 184, depending on the school. The average number of days was 175.2, which is a half day more than in the previous school year.
Teaching days can be divided into full-time and other teaching days. There were between 142 and 179 full-time teaching days during the school year. The difference in number is caused by various arrangements in the schools' operation. The average number of full-time teaching days was 149.1, which is an increase of almost 2 days from the previous school year. On average there were 3.8 more full-time teaching days in the spring than in the autumn semester. In addition, there were on average 2.2 other teaching days.
Between 0 and 32 days were used for examination and assessment in the upper secondary schools. Most schools have specific examination periods while in other schools exams and assessments take place during teaching days. On average 24 days were used for examinations and assessment, which is one day less than during the previous school year. Figure 1 shows the average number of students' days in 2001-2010. Students' days consist of full-time teaching days, other teaching days and examination/assessment days.
Teachers' wage contracts presume a total of 175 teaching and examination days during the school year, and 4 additional working days annually. The total number of teachers' working days in 2009-2010 was between 171 and 197. The average number of teachers' working days was 181.1, a decrease of 0.2 days from last year.
Special education departments are operating in 21 schools
The data collection indicates that 21 upper secondary schools have a special education department, an unchanged number from the previous school year.
According to information from the schools 27 schools have a credit-unit system and 6 schools operate according to a grade system.
About the data
Information on the number of teaching days, examination days and other teachers' working days was obtained from 35 upper secondary schools. Two schools, Menntaskólinn Hraðbraut and Snyrtiskólinn operate according to a three semester system and are not included in the data above. Last school year one new school started operating; Framhaldsskólinn í Mosfellsbæ. This school takes part in an experiment with the Ministry of Education, Science and Culture, which results in a longer school year and fewer examination and assessment days than in most other upper secondary schools.

Venetian glass may be traced back until the 13th Century. From early on colors have always been one of the main features of it. Thanks to the use of the blow pipe, the local production there has evolved in such a way to become a world leading center, not only for the great variety of colors but also for the techniques.
The blowpipe was already used in the 1st Century B.C by the Phoenicians along the Syro-Palestinian coast, travelling through the Roman Empire to Europe. The first glassblowing workshops were established in Rome, the heart of the Empire and then later in other provinces of Italy, like Campania, Morgantina and Aquileia.
In the 13th Century, after the Fourth Crusade in 1204, they were also established in Venice by some of the fleeing artisans from Constantinople and then further reinforced in the 15th Century, after the Ottomans took Constantinople in 1453, with the arrival of more glassworkers.
Around the same year Angelo Barovier, belonging to the Barovier & Toso dynasty among the oldest glass masters since 1295, invented "cristallo" glass, a totally clear glass, without the slight yellow or greenish color originating from iron oxide impurities, thanks to small additions of manganese oxide.
On one hand Venetian glass has gained its position in the world thanks to the many colors and techniques, on the other the crystal clear glass invention of the Barovier family allowed it to become a valid alternative to crystal.
Crystal has always been considered more precious than glass because of its higher index of refraction. The beauty of crystal is its sparkle, thanks to the specular reflection and the range of angles of total internal reflection which are increased. When crystal contains up to 35% lead then it has the most sparkle.
Countries which are specialized in lead crystal production, among which drinking glasses, decanters, chandeliers are France, England, The Netherlands, Hungary, The United States, Ireland, Canada, Taiwan, Austria and the Czech Republic.
Many do not know that Bohemian crystal, which is world famous, is a non-lead crystal. It contains potash and chalk, which combination creates a clear colorless glass. Furthermore it is quite rich in limestone and silica.
Venetian glass or Murano glass is a blend of silica, melting agents called flux, sodium oxide (to slow down the solidification process allowing more time to shape the item), sodium (to make the glass surface opaque), nitrate, arsenic (to eliminate bubbles) and coloring or other substances (to obtain mat glass).
The coloring agents are mainly metallic oxides which determine the glass color. The beauty of Venetian glass is to be found in its unlimited colors, such as for example:
-aquamarine when cupric oxide is added to the blend,
-red when cuprous oxide is added to the blend,
-blue when cobalt oxide is added to the blend,
-green when iron oxide and chrome oxide are added to the blend,
-violet when manganese dioxide is added to the blend (depending on the quantity),
-black when manganese dioxide is added to the blend (depending on the quantity),
-brown when iron is added to the blend (depending on the quantity),
-antimony yellow when iron is added to the blend (depending on the quantity),
-ruby when a small percentage of gold or limited amount of copper is added.
There are many other colors and each furnace has secret recipes that are jealously kept in order to come up with something new and special. To make opaque glass the blends are basically the same as the transparent ones, however with the addition of white opal glass as a base.
If you have a chance to go to Murano, take your time to visit the Glass Museum in order to admire the hundreds of beautiful colored Venetian glass items from early ages until now.

Architect's report to be presented at board's Dec. 3 meeting
In July, Owensville officials and owners of the former OES 3-5 Center toured the site after the property was offered to the city.Aldermen sought a professional evaluation of the site to help them decide if the city should accept the offer. That report is expected to be delivered later this week and aldermen are scheduled to discuss the issue when they convene at 7 p.m. Monday at City Hall.
Ward 2 Alderman John Kamler is asking for community input on the issue prior to the meeting. Kamler submitted a letter this week to "the citizens of Owensville" which begins:
As many of you may, or may not be aware, the City of Owensville has been offered a most generous gift of the former 3-5 Center and acreage from Don Lenauer and Jim Decker. Before we, as aldermen, accept, or decline, this generous offer we felt we needed to do our due diligence and see what kind of cost factors may, or may not be, involved in maintenance and upkeep, potential re-models, asbestos abatement, partial demolition or full demolition (etcetera). We, therefore, procured an architectural firm to give us these cost analysis."
Aldermen in September unanimously approved spending up to $5,600 for a report to be completed by Jacquelyn Rogers of J. Rogers Architecture, Inc., out of St. James. Rogers had initially quoted the project for $4,800 but aldermen asked for additional estimates for asbestos abatement and cost options should the city accept the building and decide to demolish a portion of, or all of the structure. Rogers quoted the additional $800 for these estimates. Her proposal was approved by ordinance (No. 1128) on Sept. 4.
"I, along with my fellow aldermen, are asking you citizens to come to this meeting and see what is presented," Kamler wrote. "I would also ask that we receive input/ideas on what could be utilized with this building and grounds.
"We have tossed around many ideas — a recreation/youth center, government building, office complex, satellite college school, re-locate city hall and police department, holding cells for sheriffs department, law offices, satellite offices for Gasconade County, and many other ideas.
"We welcome any and all input. If you can not attend this meeting please let your aldermen know what you think. Any and all ideas are encouraged. Before we make our final decision we would appreciate input from the community. I believe that most of us will agree that we are in desperate need of a youth/recreation center and many other facilities that I feel could come to fruition with the acceptance of this gift. It will take a lot of ingenuity, creativity, and perseverance to make any thing like this happen and I feel we are up to the task provided the costs are feasible. Please plan to attend on Monday. Thank you for your time and consideration."
Decker and Lenauer purchased the site for $200,000 from the Gasconade County R-2 School District through a public bidding process when the building was declared surplus after the new elementary school was finished and open in 2007. The school district retained the use of the bus barn through a rental agreement until a new facility was constructed on the district's Highway 19 North campus.
That piece of property has since been sold off by the Owensville businessmen. The Dec. 3 meeting is open to the public.

Chris "The Nightmare" Arreola faces another Mexican-American heavyweight, Eric Molina, who's looking to bump the Riversider from a possible date for the WBC title.
Arreola (34-2, 29 KOs) will be fighting Molina (18-1, 14 KOs) in his home state of Texas on Saturday. Though both are fighting for a national title much more is at stake. Showtime will televise the fight card from Corpus Christi.
It's been almost two and a half years since Arreola fought Vitali Klitschko for the WBC heavyweight title and lost. A win over Molina could score a showdown with WBA, IBF and WBO titleholder Wladimir Klitschko in the summer. That's the goal.
"There's a lot on the line," said Henry Ramirez, who trains Arreola. "There's a good chance Chris gets Klitschko next if he wins."
A year ago Arreola arrived at a robust 249 pounds to fight Joey Abell. And though he dispensed with the Minnesota heavyweight in 2:18 of the first round, few put a star over his name. The excess weight seemed to sap interest in the Riverside resident who looked fleshy to television viewers and was criticized.
Since that time Arreola has stripped off 15 pounds and looks to prove his that talent. Wins over Nagy Aguilera, Kendrick Releford, Friday Ahunanya and Raphael Butler took place in 2011 and showed many that Arreola has the necessary desire.
Molina lives in Raymondville and has stirred up interest in the Lone Star state as a potential money-maker. A win on Saturday could topple a title bid for Arreola and put Molina in the championship derby.
"Molina is a dangerous fighter because a win over Chris could put him in position to fight Klitschko," Ramirez said.
The Texan is slightly taller with a leaner body frame than Arreola but he's yet to face someone of Arreola's talent. Molina's only loss came in his pro debut when he was stopped in one round by Ashanti Jordan.
No one accuses Arreola of being void of talent and though he's been ranked in the top 10 for the last three years he's yearned for another title opportunity and the large purse that comes with it.
Emanuel Steward, who trains Wladimir Klitschko, said that Arreola has the tools and X-factor needed to produce an exciting fight.
"People love knockouts," said Steward while in California recently. "Chris Arreola has that style that people love because he's not trying to out-box you, he's trying to knock you out. Fans love his style. I love his style."
The younger Klitschko has run through the ranks of the heavyweight contenders and needs Arreola to step past Molina to set up a heavyweight collision with the Riverside prizefighter.
The Main Event
Former welterweight and junior middleweight world champion Paul "The Punisher" Williams (40-2, 27 KOs) returns to face Japan's Nobuhiro Ishida (24-6-2, 9 KOs) in a 12-round match on the Goossen-Tutor Promotions fight card in Texas.
Williams last fought in July 2011 against Cuba's Erislandy Lara and won a controversial decision that led to the suspension of three judges. Most but not all observers thought Williams should have lost the decision.
"I thought that was (ridiculous)," said Williams about the suspension of three judges for their scores. "It's not like the judges were off by more than one point. It was one point."
The lean southpaw fights Ishida, whose biggest win came against heavy-hitting James Kirkland. He floored Kirkland three times en route to a first-round knockout and shocking win. After the fight Ishida ran up and down the aisles of the massive MGM Grand with a Japanese flag rejoicing in victory. It was quite a sight. Will
"I didn't expect to get a knockout against Kirkland. You never really expect that. I'm not sure about a knockout against Paul Williams, but I think I will get the win," said Ishida during a conference call. "I'm going to make it a very long night for Paul Williams."

I have a bit of a random suggestion for you - but it's something I've heard from a lot of moms who have kids with ADHD. Could you get a small indoor trampoline? Then let Little Dude jump for, say 10 minutes. Then do a bit of math. Then more jumping. It will help him get some of the energy out and then he'll be more able to sit still and focus when he has to.
Heck, I've even heard of some moms who put their kid on the trampoline and then do oral math drills. They're having a blast and it gets the lesson in.
We don't have a trampoline here but we do "get the wiggles out" time. When math gets a bit frustrating, we stop both get up and wiggle wiggle wiggle. It helps burn off some of the energy and the general silliness of it tends to improve my mood.
You'll find what works for you. :) - August 9, 2012 at 1:09 AM
- Laura said...
Kim, finding what works is the exact struggle. When Little Dude is active, rather than getting his wiggles out, it hypes him up and it's more difficult than ever to get him to focus. It's as if he reaches a certain point of movement and he can't come back from it (unless I turn on the TV!)He is also a bit oppositional on some days. I try to get him to do yoga poses with me, and that really helps when he will. But many days, he can't even focus enough for that. I get so frustrated and I so do not want to yell at him and have him feel bad and stupid, but so many times, that's where we end up. I knew going in that this would be difficult, but this really is where he needs to be. So, we keep trying, and I will find what works for us, even if it takes a bit of time.
Thanks so much for the encouragement! I REALLY need it and appreciate it soooo much! - August 9, 2012 at 8:39 AM

My kids went to public school thru 1st and 3rd grades (they are in 5th and 7th now) and I remember those early days of adjustment! It does get easier, I promise.
My daughter has ADD (without the H) and one thing that helps us is stretching and breathing, to start the day and mid-day. I think the more you stick with the yoga poses, the more your "little cowboy" will be able to participate. We also do soothing background music and as a special treat, we have a vanilla candle and a coconut candle. You'd be amazed how motivating it can be to let the kids choose which candle to light! :-)
I love your back to school photos! Your kids are just darling! I want to do some official photos this year, but my kids are in desperate need of haircuts first!
Have a great year learning together!

Don't give up. Starting out is the hardest part because you are still adjusting! :) You can do it!

Horton wants to take advantage of the Jets' 'ills'
Arizona Cardinals defensive coordinator Ray Horton talked about some of the issues the Jets are facing.
"They have been hurt, they lost their best receiver, their line has been struggling a little bit, and I saw their offensive line coach complaining about who makes the decision on who plays," Horton said.
Including a quarterback controversy, head coach Rex Ryan fighting for his job and their unofficial mascot "Fireman Ed" stepping down from his position, the list of woes goes on and on for the Jets.
"We want to take advantage of their ills," Horton said.
The Cardinals have lost seven straight games and are looking for all the help they can get to stop their disappointing losing skid.
"We hope there is a little confusion, disarray, uncertainty there where we can maybe take advantage of everything that has been going on," Horton said.
However as many issues as the Jets have dealt with this season, the Cardinals situation isn't a whole lot better.
"It is kind of a mirror image of us," Horton said. "We have struggled a little bit."

EUR/USD SQ9(Price) - Fibs - APF
EUR/USD SQ9(Price) - Fibs - APF
The attached 4-hour EUR/USD is a continuance of the last posted chart, with SQ9(Price). We've added an Andrew's Pitchfork (APF) using plot:
Handle = Apr 9th 00:00 low 1.30315 Upper corner = Apr 12th 16:00 high 1.32116 Lower corner = Apr 16th 04:00 low 1.29937 The SELL ZONE is marked by the red line at the 161.8% extension (same as 225-degree) 1.3281 and the last peak on Apr 26th 04:00 high 1.3262. Chart 2 zooms in on 1-hour time-frame. During the Apr 27th 12:00 candle period, we can see price probe above the previous high and bounce off the APF's middle fork. The market respected 1.3275 area first. That is a resistance level on the MurreyMath1.0. Any trade off the SELL ZONE, saw profit to 1.3235 near week's close. Conservative exit at 1.3240 neighborhood during 13:00 period. Another attempt at the 1.3281 area may be forthcoming next week. |
On Apr 22nd, we detailed a Bullish Butterfly on USD/CAD 4-hour.
The attached uses a retrace plot based on: High = Apr 17th 04:00 1.00104 Low = Apr 17th 12:00 .98639 Price retraced to the 78.6% level during the Apr 23rd 08:00 candle period. This confirms plot and activity should conform to the other levels, going forward. We also added the HAMA_T3 for trend and S&R. Price dropped below the T3 after its 78.6% retrace, for a trend trade SELL entry.. The Gann Activator Bars (Chart 2) became red for a strong move to the downside. The pair barely paused at the Low .98639, before extending to the 138.2% .98078. A bounce up ensued, and we had a set-up for a SELL trade, anticipating a possible hit to T3 resistance, which is also near the Low. The ZUP generated a trend line labeled _0Reaction1_0 and this was also at the point of resistance. The Apr 26th 20:00 candle period met all of the resistance, and the ZUP tells us its a 38.2% retrace from the Apr 23rd high. The next candle was a Doji (Chart 1), and also conformed to resistance. Price then proceeded to decline back to the 138.2 fib. |

EUR/USD SQ9(Price)
EUR/USD SQ9(Price)
We rejoin last assessment of EUR/USD that had resistance and SELL ZONE at 1.3261-81.
The attached split-screen has on the left, a 30-min chart with session colors, MurreyMath1.0 (MML), and fibo fan. The chart on the right is a continuance of the last 4-hour chart posted, with APF and fib extension levels (green). The orange horizontal line marks previous high of 1.3161. We mentioned the 1st visit to the SELL ZONE. This morning, during 06:00 GMT period, price came into the SELL ZONE again ahead of some Euro Zone data. Despite better than expected data, concerns about Spain lingers and we saw pair make a decline. The fibo fan used Friday's Low and today's high as its plot. The decline was to the 61.8%. On the right, we also added SQ9(Price), with StartPrice 1.31561 (Friday's Low) and direction up. This plot places the 90-degree near the Apr 27th/30th peaks. This is another resistance level that creates the "cluster of resistance". Price declined to the SQ9 45-degree. This means that there is acluster of support, with the 45-degree, 61.8 fibo fan, 5/8th MML, and even the 50% retracement of Friday's Low/High (not shown). S/L placement just above 1.3281. Entry = 1.3260 S/L = 1.3285 TP = 1.3218 R/R = 42/25 and ratio of 1.7:1 |
Eur/usd 5-1
Eur/usd 5-1
Surprise AUD/USD rate reduction 04:30 and better than expected U.S. data at 14:00.
Here is EUR/USD plunging off the 161.8 resistance 1.3281 and SELL ZONE posted earlier. Declined to SQ9 45-degree 1.3213 and 78.6% fibo fan support. |
The 2nd chart includes the initial breach into the SELL ZONE 07:00, If trading from the 90-degree (1.3271) to the 67.5-degree (1.3242) , net gain about 20 pips. S/L just above the 161.8 (1.3281).
Continuance of AUD/USD 1-hour with HAMA_T3, MUrreyMath1.0, and SQ9.
To the left, we had marked a 61.8% pullback and 138.2% extension to 1.0314 on Apr 19th. For this example, we have the SQ9(Price) with StartPrice = 1.04734 (Apr 27th High). The large May 1st red candle was reaction to a surprise interest rate cut by Australia's central bank. Our fib plot (aqua blue) used the "event". The Royal Bank of Australia (Australian Central Bank) rate decision was announced at 04:30. The high during that candle (use 30-min chart) was 1.04134. The Low for the plot was May 1st 10:00 pivot, which was in the same neighborhood as the Apr 19th pivot. This is also near the yellow SQ9 135-degree and the red 2/8th MML support levels. The white trendline and arrow points to the pullback during the May 1st 14:00 period. As previously discussed, we can wait for the pullback at the bottom of the HAMA_T3 candles. The S/L would then be placed on the opposite end of the T3 candle of entry, or the next fib up. This pullback to 1.03478 was 38.2%, and to the 3/8th MML and SQ9 113-degree. When we look at the data window, the Value 2 price of 1.0347 is the low of that 14:00 candle. The high of that candle is the first number 1.0364 (Value 1), for S/L. The pullback was also at the same level as the Apr 18th pivot low on our previous post. So we had 5 items that made up this resistance cluster. As more data was released today, cross-pair EUR/USD made a dramatic move to the downside during the 07:30 period. The 07:55 and 08:00 data was worse than consensus. When day trading with small S/L, advocate staying on the sideline during high impact data releases. This opportunity in AUD/USD saw a more muted reaction, since data does not directly impact this pair. However, there usually is cross-pair correlation, and in this case AUD/USD was dragged in a downward direction. This is an example of how we can participate in movement reacting to surprise data, but shelter ourselves somewhat from larger whipsaws. If the surprise was toward the opposite end (up), wider spreads and slippage can trigger stop-out and even drag S/L. As long as the trader did not trail the S/L too soon, a decent gain was achieved, to the Low or the 158-degree (1.02951) and 1/8th MML (1.02844) support cluster. S/L = 1.0370 Entry = 1.0345 TP1 = 1.0310 Net R/R = 35/25 and ratio 1.4:1 The R/R can be calculated in advance when using the above tools and technique. TP1 at the Low (plus spread/cushion) is the most conservative option. Last edited by fxbaja; 05-02-2012 at 05:02 PM. Reason: we had 5 items that made up this resistance cluster (pullback) |
Let's now examine price movement and S&R by EUR/USD. The attached split-screen has to the left, 30-min with session colors and Murreymath1.0 (MML). Fib plot uses Apr 27th Low to May 1st High.
Today's bottom (thus far), after surprise data early European session, was at the 127.2%t extension level 1.31215, and same as the 2/8th MML. The chart on the right is a continuance of our 1-hour with Andrew's Pitchfork (APF) and SELL ZONE at the 161.8 area. We aligned the fib channel (FC) tool to the APF's middle and lower fork to generate diagonal expansion levels to the downside. Price pivot at the 61.8 during the 12:00 period, when medium-impact U.S. data was released (12:15). The bounce up has been contained by the FC 31.4 channel fib thus far, which is intersected by the SQ9 135-degree. The bounce opportunity came during 13:45 when price met the Low 1.3156 and bounced down a gross 20 pips. Again, medium-impact U.S data released 14:00, would affect participation. If trader remained in a short from the 161.8 area 1.3280, then the equity from this entry would have been sufficient going through data periods. Trialing by using pivot highs would protect some profit. The May 1st pivot high of 1.3243 was the obvious choice. Once European data came in, driving pair down past the APF's lower fork, trader can move S/L again. Use of SQ9 levels, MML, or HAMA_T3 are trail options. The FC expansion levels also contribute to S&R recognition. |

Today's Non-Farm Payrolls data, released at 12:30 came out worse than expected. The attached 3-chart split-screen shows price action based on certain tools applied.
The first chart to the left is a 15-min with session colors, MurreyMath1.0 (MML), and fib plot based on today's High/Low prior to data. We can see whipsaw candles 12:15-12:45, and rise to the 138.2% extension level of 1.3178. Price was rejected there, which was yesterday's high, and a strong reserve took place. Price bounced at the 178.6% extension to the downside 1.30861. The middle chart is a continuance of previously posted 1-hour with APF, SQ9(Price), and fib channel (FC) expansion. We added HAMA_T3 to show May 2nd opportunity to rejoin downtrend. Today's 13:00 candle closed at the SQ9 135-degree resistance, which is intersected by the FC 50%. The chart on the right is a daily with SQ9 22.5 Factor 56 version of indicator. StartPrice = 1.26229 (Jan 13th Low). Horizontal fib plot (yellow) based on Apr 2nd high and Apr 16th low. price just bounced off the 23.6% fib 1.30847 as the decline is pausing or ready to reverse. We also have a fib time zone plot in green, which used the 2 lows of Mar 15th and Apr 16th. We showed the 161.8% expansion ratio. On the bottom is AstroIndicator4 (A4), with settings on Moon & Mercury (planets 1 & 2) and natal date 01.01.1999. The 2 "time" indicators have a turn planned for the next trading day, which is next Sun/Mon. Since the RSI(4-Period) is oversold, the turn would thus be anticipated going up. Can use lower time-frame tools for entry. Bear in mind, it will be a new week and often news/developments over the weekend will end up impacting trading.
