Wed 17 Apr 2013 in Norwich:
In the car park of a company called Proserv based in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, UK.
Looking at the hashpoints for Wednesday this looks really easy and only a mile or two from my work place. It's in a car park on an industrial estate so "getting lost" will be the excuse for driving there.
- Gates locked. Re try later. -- Sourcerer (talk) @52.5893,1.7055 07:45, 17 April 2013 (GMT+01:00)
At 07:45, it was still too early in the morning and the gates were locked. The hashpoint was only 20 metres away behind a tall fence and the gate.
- Arrived. -- Sourcerer (talk) @52.5891,1.7054 16:16, 17 April 2013 (GMT+01:00)
In the afternoon, the gates were open and it was possible to drive right to the hashpoint where a new photo was taken and a message sent to the Wiki.
Although it took two attempts, this was a really easy expedition and I got to see a new part of industrial Britain's oil and gas industries.

The Cabinet approved sanctions Friday against Iran based on a U.N. Security Council resolution passed in December demanding that Tehran halt its suspected quest for nuclear arms.
North Korea is also a nuclear-weapons concern. The six-party talks involving Japan, China, the United States, Russia and the two Koreas agreed Tuesday on a deal that will denuclearize North Korea.
"We will urge Iran to carry out U.N. Resolution 1737 and return to negotiations as well as to cooperate with the international community to solve the nuclear issues peacefully," Shiozaki said.
The U.N. Security Council on Dec. 23 unanimously adopted the resolution to impose economic sanctions on Iran.

LeBron James scored more points, but it was Dwyane Wade and the Heat who earned the win.
Glenn James/Getty Images
Jason Terry dropped in 24 of his 29 points after intermission as the Mavs erased a 29-point deficit.
MIAMI -- Maybe there's something to Pat Riley's text messages to Dwyane Wade. After games like this, it's not too much of a stretch to call him the best in the world.
That's Riley's description/objective for Wade, which he sent him with cryptic messages reading BIW. While I find the concept of Riley texting acronyms to people hilarious, it's easy to imagine what he'd send to Wade after the Heat beat the Cavaliers 104-95 Tuesday night: "OMG Dwyane you were so awesome. You totally pwned LeBron! That's why you're my BFF. TTYL. -- Riles : )"
LeBron James got the points (38 of them), but Wade had the edge in every other major category -- assists, rebounds and most importantly the W. On this night he was the BIW. Quite simply, Wade means more to his team. He didn't get a Mo Williams to change the dynamic of the squad the way James and the Cavaliers did.
Miami isn't at the same elite level as Cleveland, even though the Heat beat the Cavaliers and the Lakers at home in the past two weeks. The Cavaliers are still a better all-around team and still have a better chance at the championship, which is why James is deservedly ahead of Wade in the MVP debate.
But every so often Wade, who happens to be the league's leading scorer, makes you stop to reconsider the pecking order in the NBA. None of the other NBA young guns (30 and under, a group that includes LeBron, Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony, Tracy McGrady and Dwight Howard) has single-handedly led his team to a championship the way Wade did with the Heat in 2006. And the fact that he has this year's squad -- with a rookie point guard and a rookie sixth man and a rookie coach -- at 17-13 and in the Eastern Conference playoff picture might be his greatest accomplishment yet.
"Dwyane has set the tone for this whole team since training camp," Miami coach Erik Spoelstra said. "We wouldn't be able to do what we're doing defensively if he didn't come in with a total commitment. The first day of training camp he was the first one in each drill. Never misses a turn. He hasn't missed a practice yet...
"He's paving the way for everybody. 'Here's how we do it at the Miami Heat.' He does it hard at practice."
Wade confessed that he might show up for every practice, but he isn't always on the court.
"Certain times I make sure I sit out and become a coach on the sideline," said Wade, whose body hasn't lasted past 51 games in each of the past two seasons, while spending his summers occupied with Team USA.
But he'll also cop to a different approach to this season, a more vocal leadership role, and a determination to make his imprint felt on this team.
"Having a year like last year," he said, "going through the season that we went through, knowing that when things go wrong, when things go good, I'm going to be the one that's going to take a hit either way. If I can take it when it's going well, I can take it when it's going bad. But I'm going to make sure we come out, make sure I help the young guys become better players, give them more confidence.
"It comes with growth, as well. It comes with being around guys on the Olympic team and their leadership and seeing the things they do, and it makes you want to do it."
Udonis Haslem, in his sixth season with the Heat, has seen veterans such as Alonzo Mourning, Shaquille O'Neal, Gary Payton and Steve Smith come and go through the locker room, and watched Wade take a little bit from each. He has seen the way Wade shows confidence in and gives confidence to his young players like Mario Chalmers, the rookie point, or Daequan Cook, the second-year guard. Tuesday night those two combined to hit 11 of 14 3-pointers, helping Wade to his total of 12 assists.
"I've also seen him have a tremendous trust in his teammates down the stretch," Haslem said. "When he was younger maybe he'd try to take it all on his shoulders."
It was telling that the Heat took a 17-11 lead in the first quarter without a point from Wade and scored 30 in the fourth quarter to hold off the Cavs without a point from Wade. He found ways to help throughout, be it stealing the ball from James or starting a fast break with a behind-the-back save.
"It takes more than just putting up points to be The Guy in this league," said Wade , who managed to score 21 on 7-for-23 shooting in between. "A lot of people say if they get the shots they can be this or that. But it takes more than that. It's on a day-to-day thing. I've got some young guys on this team. Sometimes it feels like I'm carrying my sons around, I swear. But they make it all worthwhile coming in here every day."
Now it's true that no player inspires as much awe, even among NBA peers, as LeBron James. Before the game, Cleveland teammates Ben Wallace and Delonte West were transfixed on a television showing NBA TV's "24 Hours of LeBron" in honor of James' birthday Tuesday.
Over in the other locker room, Heat players were marveling at James' attempt at a block while watching video of the teams' game on Sunday.
"You see where that [expletive] jumped from?" Mark Blount said.
Chris Quinn walked to the media center at the front of the room and hit the rewind button to watch the play again.
"That is an ath-lete," Joel Anthony said.
"That's a tight end in the NFL," Blount said.
But LeBron is now 0-3 in NBA games played on his birthday. Maybe that's a sign his birth certificate is fraudulent, that he really wasn't born Dec. 30, 1984. As anyone who's played against him can tell you, no way the dude's in his early 20s. Another sign he's older than he claims: He could not only liken Heat rookie Michael Beasley to Derrick Coleman, as was common around draft time, but he also could accurately describe the young Coleman's style of play. Coleman entered the league in 1987.
On Tuesday, LeBron had his flurries and his nightly highlight dunk, but Wade was the one who kept making the plays both big, small and instructional.
Michael Beasley, the No. 2 pick in the draft, should just sit out a game and watch how Wade does it. After Beasley rolled into the lane and picked up an easy-to-call-charge, Wade faced a similar play and deftly slowed as he entered the paint, sized up the situation and passed out to an open man.
He's also mastered the best change-of-direction move since Eric Metcalf. (I bet LeBron gets that reference, too.)
Little things like that make a guy the BIW. Wade finally gets the concept -- and the acronym Riles sent him.
"I didn't know what he was talking about at first," Wade said. "He told me. I said, 'Coach, you're just biased. You're supposed to say that. If you text me and say LeBron is the best in the world, then we've got a problem.'
But is it really what Wade wants?
"Best in the world?" he said. "Be the best I can be. I'm not really worried about being the best in the world, I'm just trying to get the best out of my ability."
And trying to get the best out of his teammates, through example and words ... although he claims the conversations can go both ways.
"I feel that anybody can say something to me," Wade said. "I don't feel like I'm above anyone."
So has anyone spoken up to him?
"There hasn't really been a need yet," Wade said.

DALLAS -- Revenge?
That might be stretching it.
Hard to see how any one regular-season game, no matter how unfathomably sweet it played out for Dwane Casey, can make up for getting fired.
However ...
You can safely presume that Tuesday's wild scenes at American Airlines Center -- who could have imagined a scenario in which Kevin McHale would be coaching against Casey when the season started? -- were sweeter for the winning coach than he chose to say.
"Fate works in weird ways," Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle said on Casey's behalf.
With Casey stepping in for the ejected Carlisle, Dallas allowed a 16-point deficit to the Minnesota Timberwolves to balloon to a 29-point deficit before uncorking the biggest comeback in franchise history, eventually sending the Mavs to a crazy 107-100 triumph ... and putting the worst single-game collapse in Wolves history on McHale's résumé next to all of his other missteps.
Among the many McHale moves that get second-guessed is the decision to fire Casey halfway through Kevin Garnett's final season in 'Sota with the Wolves sitting at 20-20. It doesn't help McHale that Randy Wittman went 38-105 as Casey's replacement before McHale was asked to move downstairs by owner Glen Taylor and surrender his front-office supremacy on Dec. 8. Neither Wittman's tenure as coach nor the Wolves' stunning capitulation Tuesday night from a seemingly invincible position will be easily forgotten.
The Mavs actually don't have a firm succession plan to implement for nights that Carlisle gets ejected. Not with two recent former head coaches -- Casey and Terry Stotts -- working as Carlisle's top two assistants. Next time figures to be Stotts' turn, but Casey was always going to get this opportunity, on the occasion of Carlisle's first-ever Mavs ejection, given the team Dallas was hosting and who was working the sideline at the other end of the floor.
The problem? It didn't look like much of a bargain with the sleepy hosts already down 46-30 in the second quarter when Carlisle got tossed, having earned two quick techs for complaining about a few early hits absorbed by Dirk Nowitzki that didn't draw a whistle. The Mavs' deficit under Casey reached 22 points by halftime and was up to a whopping 70-41 within 94 seconds of the third quarter.
"We had the game in hand," McHale said. "We came out in the third quarter and made a few hoops and I thought, 'OK, we're going to continue to go.'"
He wasn't alone. There wasn't a shred of evidence to suggest that the Mavs, looking so lethargic, could dig out of the hole. But then they suddenly turned up their defensive pressure, finally got a couple 3s to go down and found some overdue emotion after Minnesota's Craig Smith swung hard with his left arm on a Nowitzki drive and caught the former MVP in the face, knocking Nowitzki to the floor and giving him a bloody nose. The building was buzzing after the flagrant foul as the Mavs kept slicing into the lead ... with McHale helping the Mavs out by settling for only one timeout and declining to make any substitutions for nearly six minutes, until the 29-point cushion was down to nine.
With Jason Terry scoring 24 of his 29 points in the second half and Jason Kidd causing copious havoc at both ends to finish with 14 points, 16 assists, seven rebounds and four steals, Dallas had the deficit down to 86-80 with 10:03 to go, by which point you could see that this was going to end badly for the Wolves.
"Probably should have burned a couple more timeouts," McHale conceded, saying that he gambled on the belief that his young team could push back Dallas' rally if it kept pushing the pace.
The Mavs wound up treating a sellout of 20,624 to a resurrection which eclipsed the erasing of a 25-point deficit against Denver in 1994, thanks to a full group of five playing well: Terry and Kidd were flanked by Josh Howard (23 points), Erick Dampier (12 rebounds) and Nowitzki (24 points, 13 boards and gauze inserted to plug up his nose, in his first game back from a one-game suspension). The Wolves, meanwhile, simply wilted. They were unable to score in the fourth quarter, unless Al Jefferson (21 points) got the ball, and convinced McHale that they ultimately got tired after an OT win Monday night over Memphis.
"Once this place erupted, it felt like '05-06 all over again," Terry claimed, referring to the Mavs' run to the NBA Finals.
You have to believe that Casey enjoyed his own internal eruption of glee, but he masked it well.
And while Casey and McHale waved simultaneously to each other as both were walking off the floor -- customary post-game procedure for coaches -- that was the extent of their interaction.
"Didn't think about that at all," McHale insisted when asked about their history.
Tracked down later in the Mavs' locker room, Casey said: "I'm happy, sure. But I'm really happier for our guys to be able to come all the way back and get a win like this."
A couple of those players, mind you, did quietly confess that Casey thanked them heartily for the rally.
"I'm happy for Case," Carlisle said. "These things happen in weird ways [when] you meet with a former team."
Not as powerful as revenge or vengeance, but weird was a fitting word for this night, too.

Steve Blake, Blazers: Playing against the defending champions without All-Star Brandon Roy, Blake stepped up, scoring 21 points as Portland handed Boston its third loss in four games.
Minnesota Timberwolves: Leading 70-41 early in the third quarter, the Wolves couldn't hold on to the big lead, allowing the Mavericks to complete the largest comeback in franchise history.
"I'll take that 10 times out of 10."
-- Spurs guard Roger Mason on Tim Duncan's missed layup with 3.8 seconds left that sealed a 100-98 loss to the Bucks
Remember when ex-NFL offensive lineman Tony Mandarich was all the rage coming out of Michigan State about 20 years ago? He was so beastly that observers starting charting his "pancake blocks" -- the number of times he plowed over an opposing lineman. For all of its cutesy-ness, the stat wasn't entirely without value. If pass-rushers are awarded sacks, shouldn't offensive linemen be statistically credited, too?
Derrick Rose's freakish driving layup at the 8:42 mark in the fourth quarter Tuesday night against the Nets, on a crucial possession to keep the Bulls close, was aided tremendously by a high screen from Joakim Noah. For all of Chris Paul's wizardry, his patented dribble-drive is often the result of a nasty screen by Tyson Chandler ... provided Chandler isn't sitting on the pine with three fouls early in the second quarter. Shaquille O'Neal might not think much of Erick Dampier, but the Mavericks' center has carved out a place for himself as one of the game's best big men on the pick-and-roll. And I hope Steve Blake picked up something nice for Joel Przybilla this year, because the Blazers' work horse makes life a whole lot easier for his point guard.
Effective high screens that give a penetrator like Chris Paul the daylight and/or mismatch to get to the rim are as important to a team's offense as the assists we so diligently track when approximating a player's offensive value. Yet we award a dime to the person who -- often by happenstance -- makes the pass that leads immediately to a made shot. Meanwhile, all the pick man gets on a successful dribble-drive is a kind word from Hubie Brown or Doug Collins. Analysts like to deliver the old, "It doesn't show up in a box score" trope, but why can't it? If seems that if we can make stats and box scores more perfect entities, we should.

Detroit had its second strong outing without Richard Hamilton on Monday, beating Orlando two nights after securing a road win in Milwaukee, and Pistons observers are noticing that the defense has been much tidier with Detroit playing a traditional big lineup during the past two games.
This has some pondering whether Hamilton should come off the bench once he returns, playing behind Allen Iverson and Rodney Stuckey. It's a reasonable question -- Hamilton has struggled offensively this season, and having both Stuckey and Iverson together in the backcourt means that neither is forced to be a full-time point guard. Meanwhile, the return of Antonio McDyess has allowed Detroit to go big without turning to the likes of Kwame Brown.
One also has to think it might be a better way of getting Hamilton the volume of shots he's accustomed to, albeit compressed into a shorter time period. The Pistons likely still have another game or two to contemplate this before Hamilton returns, but it's a move they should seriously consider.

To say that the Kings and the Clippers struggled to the finish line in Tuesday's game might qualify as the last great understatement of 2008. Jason Thompson's dunk with 4:26 remaining that gave the Kings a 90-88 lead was the last field goal of the game, and after that, each team scored only two points. Baron Davis made two foul shots with 3:01 to play to tie the score, and Brad Miller's two freebies with 45 seconds remaining stood up as the decisive points in the Kings' 92-90 victory.
It was the first time this season that two NBA teams have combined to score as few as four points over the final four minutes of a game.
• The Hawks' 110-104 win over the Pacers in Indianapolis lifted Atlanta's won-loss record to 21-10 and represented the most games over .500 that the Hawks have been since the end of the lockout-shortened, 50-game 1998-99 season, when the Hawks finished at 31-19.
• David Lee had a game-high 16 rebounds as the Knicks closed out 2008 with a 93-89 victory in Charlotte, lifting his December average to 13 rebounds per game in 14 games this month. It's the highest rebound average by a Knicks player appearing in at least 10 games in a month since February 1995, when Patrick Ewing averaged 13.8 rebounds in 12 games.
• Shaquille O'Neal made 8 of 10 free-throw attempts in the Suns' comeback win at Memphis. Tuesday's game was the 532nd in his NBA career in which he has taken at least 10 foul shots, but it was only the 21st of those games -- and the first in nearly six years -- in which he has made at least 80 percent of his free-throw attempts. The last time that Shaq shot at least 80 percent from the line (minimum: 10 attempts) was March 20, 2003, when, playing for the Lakers at Sacramento, he knocked down 10 of 12 from the line. Shaq's best one-game performance from the line? He went 13-for-13 -- really, it's true -- for the Lakers against Denver on April 17, 2001.
• Chris Paul had 16 assists as part of a triple-double in the Hornets' win over the reeling Wizards. In 13 games during December, Paul averaged 11.5 assists and 3.1 steals per game. Over the last 13 seasons, only one NBA player averaged at least 11 assists and three steals per game in a month of at least 10 games. That was Paul himself, who had 11.6 assists and 3.3 steals in February of this year. Before that, the last player to do it was John Stockton in March 1995.

Another game, another record for Chris Paul. The point guard tallied 15 points, 16 assists and 10 rebounds to tie the franchise record with his seventh career triple-double as the Hornets took care of the Wizards, 97-85.

- KENTUCKY [2-2/0-1] 24, Florida [2-2/0-1] 17 [JP].
- 21-24; Kentucky somehow blows the fourth-quarter lead, extending Florida's streak to 17 games in the series.
- ALABAMA [2-2/1-0] 27, Arkansas [3-0/0-0] 14 [CBS].
- 31-34, double OT. Arkansas pulls off the road win in Tuscaloosa, not the easiest thing to do.
- AUBURN [1-2/1-0] 35, Western Kentucky [3-0] 17.
- 48-3; Auburn has now put together two impressive performances against lower-calibre teams after some early disappointments. We'll see if that lasts this week…
- VANDERBILT [1-3/0-1] 17, Georgia Tech [1-3/0-2] 14 [PPV].
- 17-24, OT. Vandy has come oh-so-far, but not-so-far-enough.
- TENNESSEE [3-0/1-0] 31, South Carolina [3-1/0-1] 17 [ESPN].
- 23-20, OT. The Gamecocks put up a good fight at Rocky Top.
- Louisiana State [4-0/1-0] 45, MISSISSIPPI STATE [0-3/0-0] 7 [ESPN2].
- 41-6. Really nothing to say about this one, folks; it was just sad.
- OLE MISS [2-1/1-0] 38, Texas Tech [2-1] 21 [Webcast only].
- 45-49. As-billed, a big shootout. The Rebel secondary continues to get burned for big plays; however, the killer was the lack of red-zone offense that led to 18 of the Rebels' 45 points coming from field goals.
Where does this put everyone in the standings? UT holds the lead in the SEC East at 2-0, with Florida and Georgia tied at 1-1, while everyone eligible for the conference title in the West (except Mississippi State) is undefeated in SEC play. That, however, won't last long. Realistically, the East is down to UT and Georgia already (with Florida with an outside shot if UT collapses down the stretch), while it's still anyone's ticket to Atlanta in the West.
Only four games this week, all of which are East versus West showdowns, three of which are on TV. Starting at the JP game and working later in the schedule:
- FLORIDA [3-2/1-1] 27, Ole Miss [2-2/1-0] 18 [JP/GamePlan]
- Unless the Rebels' red zone offense drastically improves or the secondary figures out how to limit big plays, Chris Leak will look like the second coming of Johnny Unitas in the Swamp on Saturday. A must-win for both coaches (and for either team to have a shot at the SEC title game).
- Vanderbilt [1-4/0-2] 21, MISSISSIPPI STATE [0-4/0-1] 10
- Two SEC losing streaks are on the line here in Starkville. I see absolutely no evidence of life out of the Bulldogs, so I have to favor Vandy by default.
- GEORGIA [3-1/1-1] 35, Alabama [2-3/1-1] 14 [CBS].
- Bama's been all over the map this season. Georgia hasn't. 'Nuff said.
- Tennessee [4-0/2-0] 31, AUBURN [2-2/1-0] 17 [ESPN].
- Auburn has yet to prove it can win a game against decent opposition. UT, er, actually has won games against decent opposition.
Till next time…
By the way, Pete Holiday has a preview of the UT-Auburn matchup at the SEC Fanblog as well.

Machito Biography
Francisco Raúl Grillo, 16 February 1912, Tampa, Florida, USA, d. 15 April 1984, London, England. Raised in Cuba, Machito became a singer and maracas player, working with many of the best-known bands on the island. After arriving in New York, USA, in the late 30s, he became similarly well known as an accomplished player in various Latin-American dance bands. In 1941 he formed his own unit, the Afro-Cubans, and the following year his brother-in-law, Mario Bauza, until then lead trumpeter with Chick Webb, joined him. Under Bauzas watchful eye, the Afro-Cubans became one of the leading exponents of their particular form of Latin-American music. In the late 40s, and throughout the 50s, Machitos band regularly teamed up with leading jazz musicians, especially beboppers, for recording sessions, some of the earliest of which were produced by Norman Granz. These artists included Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Flip Phillips, Buddy Rich, and Howard McGhee. His music appealed greatly to Stan Kenton, helping to prompt Kentons long-lasting love affair with Latin rhythms. Machito played percussion instruments on some of Kentons recordings, including the original version of The Peanut Vendor. Machito had a number of successful records during the mambo craze of the 60s, but it was the increasing popularity of salsa that helped to keep him in the front rank of popular entertainment until his death in April 1984, which occurred during an engagement in London.

The sight of Kennen, Ziggs, Amumu, Teemo and Corki in one team was too much for our bemused opposition. I think I could hear the opposition Nasus' brain melting through his ears when 3 of us dived and killed him in around 0.5 of a second.

great flip flops
By Annie
from Surrey
The only flip flops I will wear - I have plantar fasciatis and if I walk in flip flops any length of time, I have pain - but, not with these sandals - I never have any pain -
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
By Heather
from abbotsford b.c.
I can't wear regular flip flops or sandals that have a plastic toe post.....these tide sandals have a cloth toe post and were comfortable right from the first time I put them on, they are not stiff, there is a nice bend in the sole when walking, I am surprised that they were so comfy right off the bat..nice color as well I got the raspberry tan. I usually wear a size 8 in shoes, and the 8's in the sandal fit perfectly.....the straps are a bit tighter than the south beach sandals I got last year but I knew that when I ordered the Tide style
By Maureen
from Aylmer
Usually sandals have a rather thin sole for summer but not these. Full substantial sole very comfortable and flip floppy at the same time. Love them and happy with my purchase.
Excellent for my feet
By Redgal
from White Rock,BC
I was recently told that I have "supination" my foot rolls to the outside. although these and orthoheels are designed for pronation, they are fantastic. Started wearing them as slippers around house, and now wear them outside as well. I had no adjustment period, and they felt great the minute I put them on!! I would definitely recommend these sandals.
By Debbie the walker
from Windsor, Ontario
First of all my normal shoe size is a 8.5 so I ordered the 8 as suggested on the website. When I received the first pair (Pewter) I was happy with the appearance but they were too small. My foot is a little on the wide side so if you have a wider foot and you are a half size then I would definitely go half size up. I returned first pair with no issues. Service was great. They didn't have original colour in stock in a size 9 so I reordered but chose Raspberry this time. The colour is nice, not too pink or red. It's subtle. The quality of the shoe is very good. I have heel spurs so I am not supposed to wear flip flops but these ones I can wear without feeling pain later. I did find that I had to get used to them though. They weren't super comfortable right off the start but I'm really getting used to them now and I know that I won't have the usual pain that I would get after wearing my regular flip flops that night and next morning. Overall a very good choice.

Incorrect Picture of Coral/Tan Sandal
By CAL
from Southwestern Ontario
I just received my order this morning for these sandals. I ordered both the coral/tan and the raspberry/tan as I wasn't sure if the pictures on the website were correct. As expected the blue colour showing on the website as the coral/tan is incorrect. The coral/tan is actually a coral colour. Slightly lighter than the raspberry. Wanted to share that for anyone ordering. Just tried them on and they are super comfy!

Great shoe, wrong color
By Gina
from Calgary, AB
I have nothing bad to say about the shoe as it seems to be quite comfy when I tried it on and built well and is attractive in person. However I am returning my pair for the 2nd time because both times I have been sent the wrong color even though I called and advised TSC that the graphics are incorrect for the blue color it has not been corrected and I was once again sent coral instead of the blue. This is why I am only giving 3 stars, great shoe but if you want blue you will be sent a coral/pink color instead. Very frustrating.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
By Ginger
from St. Albert (Alberta)
I own 3 pair of Orthaheel so was very disappointed in these. At first thought they were great wearing around the house. But the first time I wore them out I had blisters on the top of my feet from the straps. The straps are very hard. I would have sent them back, but I stupidly threw out the box.

Forced Labor and Slavery: The Other Side of Trafficking
February 8
9:00 am - 5:00 pm
Forced Labor is the modern day equivalent to Slavery. About 600,000 to 800,000 people are trafficked around the world, and millions are forced into labor in their own countries. This full-day event will focus on Labor Trafficking in the US and abroad. We will explore how Labor Trafficking differs from Sex Trafficking and the challenges faced in this field. Discussion will focus around the causes of this forced labor, common scenarios of slavery, the consequences victims face, and what is being done to combat this slavery. Also, since Labor Trafficking can occur anywhere, even right here in our neighborhood, we will host a practical session on what rights domestic workers, often victims of labor slavery, have and how students can help victims of Labor Trafficking in their own communities

Dropbox had released their latest update 2.0 for the iOS with a fresh new look and new User Interface (UI). Their boast? They refined photo experience in the iOS.
For those who are not familiar what Dropbox is, here is a brief summary. Dropbox is a file hosting service operated by Dropbox, Inc. that offers cloud storage, file synchronization and client software (ref: Wikipedia). This service was highly appreciated among mobile users especially that you can store not only your documents but also your photos and just anything else. This works by downloading the app on your iPhone, installing the app in your Mac or PC or access to Dropbox website so you can upload the file from any of the apps. It will then be synchronized to all your devices that use the same account.
The latest update of Dropbox gave the both the iPhone and iPad a massive change in the way thet they upload, organize and display photos that are better. Focusing in photos is their priority in the new interface giving a smooth and powerful gallery browsing so you will not have problem flipping to hundreds of photographs. In the past 2 updates, they have introduced also the automatic uploading to your Dropbox app after you took a photograph so you can have a back up anywhere you go. Of course, internet connection is required to use this service.
Here's the official statement from Dropbox released in their blog:
"Now all of your photos are right at your fingertips with the brand new Photos tab. With just a tap, you'll be able to scroll through a timeline of all the photos you've automatically uploaded (including the pocket-dialed ones too). And since Dropbox is a one stop shop for all your memories, you can also check out the photos you've uploaded from everywhere else!
Also, when you select a photo, you'll be able to view it in full-screen glory with nary a button in sight. This means you can get maximum real estate when you're flipping through puppy photos, or those pics of your bare feet. And to make things even better, our new speedy scroller will help you navigate all the way back to time immemorial (or your earliest photos) in seconds. Even if you have "Billions and Billions" of them."
Have you tried using Dropbox? You really have to check it out if you haven't. I can't have my iPhone without.

About apple juice and arsenic
The debate over whether apple juice is safe to drink continues this week.
The Dr. Oz Show has tested three dozen samples of juice from five different brands in three different cities in the U.S. and compared the levels of arsenic in the juices to the standards of arsenic allowed in drinking water. Today's program will report 10 juice samples had more arsenic than the 10 parts per billion allowed in drinking water.
The Food and Drug Administration has responded by saying it has "every confidence in the safety of apple juice" and warned the producers of the program their findings are misleading.
Arsenic is present naturally in the environment, and organic arsenic is essentially harmless, but long-term or high exposure to inorganic arsenic is considered a health risk.
Small amounts of arsenic are in certain foods — including fruit juices — and the FDA says it does annual tests of baby food and apple juice for the presence of the inorganic form of arsenic for safety. Apple juice is also targeted under another program testing for harmful substances in food and beverages, the agency says.
Why isn't there a safe level for arsenic in apple juice when there's a safe level for arsenic in drinking water? The two can't be compared, according to Henry Kim, supervisory chemist at the FDA's Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition: The form of arsenic that mostly turns up in foods is the organic kind and the form of arsenic that turns up in drinking water is the inorganic kind.
Anyway, remember apple juice is a sugary beverage (that also misses all the fiber you'd get from eating an apple) and too many sugary beverages help boost childhood obesity and dental problems. When kids are thirsty between meals, consider giving them a drink of water instead.

Washington - A suspension of United States sanctions against Myanmar, rather than a full removal of the penalties, would keep pressure on the government to stay on track with political reforms, opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi said on Tuesday.
"I'm not against the suspension of sanctions as long as the people of the United States feel that this is the right thing to do at the moment," she said in a video conference to a gathering in Washington.
"I believe sanctions have been effective in persuading the government to go for change," said Suu Kyi.
Suu Kyi and 42 other members of her National League for Democracy party took their seats in parliament this month following a historic by-election in a year of dramatic reforms in the former British colony also known as Burma.
Suspending sanctions imposed over the past two decades in response to harsh military rule, as has been done by the European Union, "is a way of sending a strong message" of support for nascent reforms while retaining leverage, she said.
"People are too optimistic about the scene in Burma," Suu Kyi warned an audience gathered to mark former president George W. Bush's "Freedom Collection" of papers and artifacts from famous dissidents and democracy movements around the world.
Myanmar's reforms are "not irreversible" until the country's military leaders "solidly and officially" commit to democratisation, said the Nobel Peace laureate, who spent most of the past 20 years under house arrest.
While the government had released hundreds of political prisoners since last year, 271 prisoners from a list her NLD party gave Myanmar's home minister remain in jail, said Suu Kyi.
"There should be no political prisoners in Burma if they really aim for democratisation," she said.
Washington has gradually lifted some of the economic sanctions imposed on Myanmar from 1990-2008, allowing technical assistance by international financial institutions and authorising financial transactions for non-profit projects. - Reuters

Nice little chicken shop, variety of different chicken products, I like the cordon bleu. They usually have food to taste at the counter so you can try before you buy. Very clean shop and very friendly.
This Lenard's store is one of the best I have shopped at, the staff are all very nice and the food is always fresh. I love Lenards, they have so many different things for dinner that all of the family love (which isn't easy with my fussy family) and their chicken breasts are always fresh and nicely priced.
Lenards provides great quality, range and healthy eating options for chicken lovers. This store is always well kept, clean and sanitary. A family member does work at this store so I speak from experience when I say that the staff are well trained in food preparation, all food is prepared as per the most strict requirements. All staff are trained in customer service and can tell you how to cook a particular menu item. The staff are also required to sample product so they can give the customer a first hand opinion of what the food tastes like. I am quite picky with my food and I find that I like most menu items. My favourites are the tendergold breast fillets, pinwheels and schnitzels. You can buy readymade stir-frys, satay dishes, enchiladas, sausage rolls and many other items that are great for fussy kids. The staff are always professional and are very good at what they do. Party packs are very well priced and a variety of combinations are available.

I'm busy trying to re-write all the shit my evil computer destroyed this week, and also attempting to have some kind of life, so my writing time today is even more limited than usual. However, earlier this month I completely lost my fucking mind and signed up for this stupid NaBloPoMo thing, so I've got to write something because I WILL NOT LET NABLOPOMO BEAT ME. I asked my friend Em to help me come up with a topic but all she gave me was, "Why don't you write about how you can eat those gross disgusting medicine tablets?" and I was all, "WTF?" and she pointed to a box of Alka Seltzer cold medicine on my desk, and I was all, "You DO know you don't actually EAT those, right?" and she tried to backtrack and pretend that she knew that all along but really we both know she didn't. Not only did she not know, but I have a sneaking suspicion that she's actually tried to eat one before. She's such a dumbass so silly.
Since Em didn't help me at all I'm just going to give it to you raw. A series of totally bizarre random thoughts that have been running through my mind today.
Let me just say in advance — I'm sorry. I'll be better tomorrow. I hope.
- Random Thought #1: Hair extensions are weird. They're all about presenting an illusion that you have longer or more hair than you do, but anyone who saw you yesterday will obviously know that you didn't sprout five inches of growth overnight. (That's what she said.) Doesn't that sort of destroy the illusion?
- Random Thought #2: There is not one single flavor of Jelly Belly that DOESN'T taste delicious in combination with the buttered popcorn flavor. Even flavors that I don't really like taste delicious when they're combined with buttered popcorn. It's kind of like magic. I once thought the magic might translate to real-life buttered popcorn, but after a couple of bad experiences, I've given up on that theory.
- Random Thought #3: Lesson of the Day: Jelly Bellies for breakfast will give you a Jelly Belly ache.
- Random Thought #4: A haiku:
I love Matt Damon
I love love love love love him.
Matt, give me a call.
Random Thought #5: Why do so many people make such a big deal about making their beds every day? What's the point? You're just going to mess it up again that night. Isn't it just a pointless exercise in futility? Are you people all nuts? Am I the only sane one left in the world? Or is it the other way around? Wait. Don't answer that.
- Random Thought #6: Hobos always have the best dogs. I saw a hobo on a bicycle the other day and his dog was riding on the back, holding onto his back. That was one seriously smart (and strong) dog.
I can't get my dog to stop eating cat shit.
- Random Thought #7: Sometimes I wish I was a hobo.
- Random Thought #8: I have never forgiven Russell Crowe for showing up to his wedding looking like a hobo.
- Random Thought #9: I'm a robot sexist. For some reason I always think of androids as girl robots. I think of boy robots as cyborgs. I think this might be unfair to the boy robots, because cyborg definitely has a more negative connotation to it. Unless there's some other difference that I'm unaware of: Androids want to help you. Cyborgs just want to blow you up.
- Random Thought #10: I'm pretty sure the oddly expressionless guy in our web services department is a cyborg.
- Random Thought #11: As much as I hate that evil red demon Elmo (and trust me, I hate him A LOT), I actually hate Big Bird MORE.
Elmo is just annoying. Big Bird is an asshole. A big, yellow, whiny asshole.
- Random Thought #12: When I was a kid I my grandmother cross-stitched a pillow for me with the face of Oscar the Grouch on it. I loved it because my grandma made it for me, but deep down inside I always wished it was Miss Piggy's face instead.
- Random Thought #13: Given the way this week has gone, I think 13 is a very appropriate number to end on.

Corn futures were narrowly mixed Wednesday night as traders await USDA reports today. Those start with the weekly Export Sales number early in the morning. However, traders may not react significantly to those data unless they are quite surprising, since the release of the quarterly Grain Stocks and annual Prospective Plantings reports come later in the morning (11:00 CDT). Prices could move dramatically from that point. May corn was unchanged at $7.3525/bushel early Thursday morning, while the December contract edged 0.5 cent lower $5.705.
After rising moderately Wednesday, soybean futures set back early Thursday morning. There was little significant news concerning the legume market Wednesday night; a palm oil decline to weekly lows apparently dragged soil oil values downward, which may also explain the concurrent soybean slippage and modest gains in soymeal prices. Of course, the situation could change rather drastically after the various USDA reports (i.e. weekly Export Sales, quarterly Grain Stocks and annual Prospective Plantings) are released later this morning. May soybeans slipped 1.25 cent to $14.525/bushel in pre-dawn Thursday trading, while May soyoil dipped 0.20 cents to 50.62 cents/pound, and May meal added $0.7 to $423.8/ton.
The international wheat markets seemed surprisingly active Wednesday night, which may be a big reason U.S. futures rose modestly early Thursday morning. Technically inclined traders may also be buying despite the uncertainty associated with looming USDA reports, because the benchmark May CBOT contract easily topped chart resistance associated with its 40-day moving average Wednesday. May CBOT wheat futures rose 2.5 cents to $7.3925/bushel early Thursday morning, while May KCBT wheat gained 3.5 cents to $7.775 and May MGE futures moved up 3.25 cents to $8.1625.
After rallying Wednesday in response to firm cash news, cattle futures proved narrowly mixed early Thursday morning. Bullish hopes for stronger cash prices later this week and in April supported the nearby contract, but the other 2013 contracts declined modestly. Traders probably worry that the surprising weakness in beef demand experienced through much of the first quarter will persist for the foreseeable future. April cattle lifted 0.27 cents to 127.62 cents/pound in early Thursday morning action, while August skidded 0.20 cents to 123.82. Meanwhile, April feeder cattle futures added 0.15 cents to 140.55 cents/pound, and August gained 0.25 cents to 149.50.
CME lean hog futures moved generally lower Wednesday and proved rather weak again Thursday morning. The expiring April contract set back from its Wednesday advance overnight, which probably reflected surprisingly weak cash quotes late yesterday. Late news of wholesale weakness very likely weighed upon prices as well. We do not expect much hog market volatility today, since the USDA will release its quarterly Hogs & Pigs report at 2:00 PM CDT this afternoon. April hogs slipped 0.22 cents to 79.85 cents/pound in early Thursday morning electronic activity, while June set back 0.05 cents to 90.62.
Although Chinese government officials reportedly plan to increase their sales of high quality cotton in April, cotton traders are apparently more concerned with Chinese promises to again buy and hold a larger percentage of its domestic cotton crop next fall. That could keep the global situation relatively tight despite indications of improved production from drought-reduced totals posted last year. Thus, cotton futures rose slightly Wednesday night despite the looming release of the weekly Export Sales and annual Prospective Plantings reports. May cotton advanced 0.18 cents to 88.71 cents/pound early Thursday morning, while December climbed 0.11 cents to 87.36.

For engaged couples that already have well-established homes, the wedding registry can sometimes feel like an unnecessary indulgence. Which is why the trend of charitable wedding registries has taken off in such a big way.
Atlanta-based radio disc jockey, Cindy Simmons and her fiance have been fanning the flame of this hot trend with a registry that is 100% devoted to supporting two amazing charities. The couple gives well-wishers two options.
The first is a straightforward monetary donation to the Young Survival Coalition. (a fabulous resource for young women facing breast cancer) And the second is a Target Club Wedd registry that lets friends and family purchase actual gifts to support the Wellspring Living residential home for girls who are victims of sexual abuse and human trafficking.
Would you consider a charitable wedding registry? Share with us your creative ideas for making a charitable registry fun and meaningful for your wedding guests and well-wishers!

Family: Married to Charles Jenkins, Jr. ; 3 sons: Charles III, Colton, Caleb
Occupation: Current Teacher with experience in Putnam Schools beginning in 1992
Education: Bachelor of Arts in Education, University of North Florida; Associate of Arts, St. John's River Community College; Certifications with the Florida Department of Education (Science, Physical Education) and Florida Association of Christian Colleges and Schools (Elementary and Secondary Education); Certifies Teacher Trainer
Political Experience: None
What do you see as the top three issues in this race?
- Healthy Schools; I will support the continued improvements and remodeling of our schools; not only for cosmetics, but because our students and employees deserve to enter our buildings free of health concerns. As we upgrade we must plan for today's technological advances as well as for those in the future. We must find a way to move our children being housed in portables into safer, healthier brick and mortar structures. We must build the perceived value of our schools by offering parents and students what they need; including additional vocational certifications, magnet schools, mentoring programs, college readiness courses. We also need to develop a plan to facilitate community/neighborhood schools again, giving the community a feeling of ownership in the success of the school; thus developing a sense of community pride in the school. We must develop a strong discipline policy that addresses the needs of the child yet considers the loss of educational time suffered by other children when that child decides to "shut down" the classroom. We need to establish a comprehensive and far reaching teacher recruitment and retention policy to ensure that we hire only the highest quality teachers.
- Healthy Students; Making sure our students are both physically and mentally healthy. At the most basic level we must offer a safe place for those at risk and food for those that are hungry. Our lunch program has made changes for the better, yet it still offers items such as pizza and tater tots as menu items far too often. We need to work on this and see to it that our kids are not being "carbed" up to the point they are getting addicted to these types of foods. I am also an advocate for a strong community and school based physical and recreational activity program. I am a strong believer in recreational activities to include sports, arts, and music. We must provide children with the programs that interest them. It is a proven fact that graduation rates will increase if students place a high value/interest on/in their time on campus. We must set high expectations and demand the best from our children. It is my sincere belief that lowering our expectations gives our children a false sense of success, a substandard education, and a set of work skills they can't use, thus leading to their dependence on the "system." One of my chief goals in office will be to work as part of the team that breaks this cycle of dependence.
- Healthy Communities; We must give hope to our children, parents, community, teachers, staff, and business. We can increase the faith in our system of both parents and students by making sure our schools have role models each student can relate to. Students need to see future images of themselves and what they can be. We need to ensure more positive images are being seen and not just those of drug dealers hanging out on our streets. I will advocate for increasing stronger partnerships with mentoring programs such as Boyz II Men, Boy's and Girl's club, Girl Scouts, Communities in Schools, R.O.P.I., Police Athletic League, Putnam Recreational, and other civic and community organizations to reach this end. We have a lot of capacity and we need to explore exactly what we can do with it.
I will support the continued expansion and development of the Cambridge Program and other college readiness programs for those students and parents who are interested in a post-secondary education. I will advocate for a true collaborative relationship between the schools and businesses that facilitates a working vocational education program guaranteeing students a much better chance of securing employment after leaving school.
Saying yes to standards, but NO to Common Core. We must protect our teachers and students from "big government." Education must remain a local decision so that we can provide our children the skills/knowledge most needed by them and the local economy. Most importantly, we must overcome the old system of electing friends and elect someone who is highly qualified and has a belief system based on the strong morals and ethics that have made our country great. Putnam County needs someone who understands the needs of today's children, teachers, staff, business, and community.
Why should people vote for you?
There has been a lot of discussion about what qualifies a person to be on the board. Those that have no educational experience say it is their lack of experience that makes them the better candidate. Others say that it is their business background or parenting experience. My position is that I would never go to the gas station to have a heart transplant or to the heart center for an oil change. I would want a professional in the field who has the knowledge and skills necessary to complete a successful surgery. This statement holds true for a candidate for the school board also. I have over 20 years of experience in education. I have worked with students from pre-k to 12th grade. I have worked in inner city, rural, and wealthy schools. I have certifications from both the FL Department of Education and Florida Association of Christian Colleges and Schools. I am currently a teacher and understand the motivations of today's children. I meet with and talk to those closest to the field every day (parents, business/community members, students, staff, and teachers) about our issues. This gives me insight into the needs within the district and not some ivory tower ideas that have no basis of support. A study completed in 2000 by the Iowa Association of School Boards resulted in acknowledging that school districts with the highest achievement have people on the board "knowledgeable about teaching and learning issues, including school improvement goals, curriculum, instruction, assessment, and staff development..."
My experience sets me above the others because I also have the business and current parenting experience. I had a role in the operations of our family businesses. After we sold the businesses, I ran my own Mary Kay cosmetic business (which I made inactive to dedicate more time to my children and the children that I teach). I am also a parent of young children who live in a world full of cell phones, xboxes, etc. I have coached many sports and can usually be found at a local public field watching one of my children. I do understand all of their issues.
Most importantly I am ethical and moral. I will be the example of what a role model should be. My decision to run is truly to improve the system. Of all the candidates, I am the one with the most to lose if this system doesn't turn itself around. My love for my children, your children, and for Putnam County gives me much more motivation than any other candidate.
What do you hope to be remembered for after you leave office?
I would love to be remembered as an unwavering advocate for children who constantly searched for ways to improve the educational system in Putnam County.

Cayucas, 'Bigfoot' – Album Review
Music fandom has many peculiar aspects, but the the desire to lay claim to a band or an artist is among the most ridiculous. Rarely can one single source rightfully claim to have discovered a new artist, and many times, it's not the discovery that people want credit for, but rather the long-term backing they've given bands, even before they were cool.
Still, we tend to credit certain critics or websites for bringing bands to light. For instance, Gorilla Vs. Bear helped to increase Grimes' public profile, and in 2011, You Ain't No Picasso named 'High School Lover' by Oregon Bike Trails — then the solo project of Zach Yudin — as their favorite song of the year. After catching the attention of the respected blog, Yudin drew a bit of flak by annoucning that he would change his name to Cayucas for the recording of this, his (and his assembled band's) debut LP for Secretly Canadian.
'Bigfoot' arrives with the a vague sense of familiarity, regardless of one's experience with Oregon Bike Trails, though fans of that project will be happy to see that a number of its strongest songs have made the transition to this new outfit. Tracks like 'Cayucos' and 'A Summer Thing' sound refreshed. Principally, they're the same songs, but Yudin has added an unaffected, almost hypnotized attitude that generally gets simplified as "laid back."
Some will bemoan the increased production quality, but the shift seems in the best interest of the songs, and Yudin's vision for his originals has not been compromised. And once listeners get a sense of the direction of the records, they stand a chance of looking past the fusion of influences that is easy to get caught up on. Cauycas, you might say, sound like Animal Collective jamming with the Police in a '60s beach-party movie or on the island where 'Weekend at Bernie's' takes place.
Yudin's melodies are generally hard to predict, and he seemingly treats the extensive histories of reggae and beach rock more as obstacles to avoid than as tools to use. He's constantly on guard to not repeat what other artists have done, and his obsession with originality can actually be a detriment. 'East Coast Girl' has a strong enough chorus and vocal harmony hooks to survive on, but the song's verses are aimless and too self-aware. On 'Ayawa 'kya,' Yudin releases a sung rap that only Beck could really make work.
Ultimately, 'Bigfoot' is slight, and its best purpose might be uniting gatherings in feelgood vibes. But writing it off for these reasons is not fair, and 'Will "The Thrill"' is worth the price of admission alone. With the weather getting warmer, 'Bigfoot' just might join the recent album from the So So Glos on the heavy summer rotation. Maybe we all owe You Ain't No Picasso a tip of the hat.

Anderson made it to the quarterfinals of the ATP Masters in Toronto last week, where Bulgarian seventh-seed Grigor Dimitrov defeated him 5-7, 7-5, 7-6 (8/6).
The South African previously achieved a ranking of 17 in July, after reaching the fourth round of Wimbledon. – Sapa

Durban - Orlando Pirates defeated Thanda Royal Zulu 3-1 via a penalty shootout as the Nedbank Cup match at the uMhlathuze Sports Complex ended in a 3-3 draw after extra-time on Saturday afternoon.
The Sea Robbers were the first to comeback in the encounter, cancelling out a two-goal deficit to force the match into extra time, but Mhlengi Cele's goal in the 120th minute forced the six-goal thriller to be decided on spot-kicks.
Pirates were looking to avoid the disappointment they sustained last season when they were embarrassingly eliminated at this stage of the competition to Maluti College.
But this time the lightning struck the same place twice and it saw Pirates going a goal behind from the first kick of the whistle. Thanda worked their way into the box, but both Ayanda Gcaba and Lucky Lekgwathi failed to clear, and it allowed for Andile Fikizolo to slice a low drive into the back of net.
Ten minutes later the home side created another through Mhlengi Cele, who struck an effort which forced the Pirates' goalkeeper to dip down and make the save at the near post.
Boy Gumede tried an effort from range 15 minutes in, but he was never in control of it and he saw his shot sail high and wide over the goal frame.
The KwaZulu Natal outfit was sensing that it was the right time to play Pirates and they were doing well to test the Bucs in the opening stages of the game.
Pirates had started to gain the majority of the possession by the half hour mark, but they still looked far from scoring when Helder Pelembe fire over Daine Klate's free-kick straight over the goals.
It proved costly for the away team as Thanda went 2-0 up in the 37th minute through Fikizolo. Pirates failed to clear their lines and it saw the goal scorer strike an unstoppable pile-driver from 25-yards out to get his goal of the afternoon.
Kermit Erasmus was brought on in place of Tlou Segolela at the restart, but it was Pelembe who tested Siya Mngoma for the first time in the game with his snap-shot in at the near post.
Gcaba was lucky to walk away with just a yellow card after he was caught launching his foot into the lower stomach of an opposition player- it probably should've been an instant dismissal.
The crossbar then denied Pelembe of his glancing header midway through the second half, before Erasmus drew a save from Mngoma which the 'keeper nearly made a hash of.
An exciting end to the game was lined-up when Gcaba's header beat the opposition's 'keeper to halve the deficit in the first minute of stoppage time.
Thanda's lead was completely cancelled out in the final minute of additional time after Pelembe made it 2-2 with his tap in at the near post to send the game into an extra 30 minutes of playing time.
Erasmus thought he had sealed the victory 11 minutes from full time of extra-time when he turned on the ball and beat Mngoma, but Cele's tap-in the 120th minute at the near post meant the game ended in a penalty shoot-out.
Oupa Manyisa, Erasmus and Makola all converted their spot-kicks for the away side as Pirates claimed a 3-1 win on penalties to progress into the last 16 of the Nedbank Cup.
Thanda Royal Zulu (2) (2) 3 (Fikizolo 1', 37', Cele 120')
Orlando Pirates: (0) (2) 3 (Gcaba 91' Pelembe 94', Erasmus 109')
Thanda Royal Zulu: Mngoma, Sekete, Khanyilen( Zitha 74'), Maselwa, Luthuli (Vilane 92'), Komane, Cele, Spandiel, Bhengu, Fikizolo (Mashishi 84'), Gumede
Orlando Pirates: Meyiwa, Nyauza, Lekgwathi, Matlaba, Gcaba, Pelembe, Segolela (Erasmus 46'), Manyisa, Myeni, Klate (Malongoane 71'), Ntshumayelo (Makola 57')
Penalty shoot-out: Komane (Miss), Manyisa (Goal), Cele (Goal), Erasmus (Goal), Mashishi (Miss), Makola (Goal), Spandiel (Miss)
