Music Publisher Goes for Victory in Trailblazing Piracy Trial
A verdict will likely come soon in a landmark case examining the responsibilities of Internet service providers with regards to piracy. BMG Rights Management, which is pursuing Cox Communications for the alleged copyright violations of its users, is demanding judgment sooner rather than later.
Last month, a federal judge let the case go to trial with an eye-opening decision that denied safe harbor to Cox because of its failure to reasonably implement a repeat-infringer policy.
With the case now proceeding in Virginia, BMG filed a motion on Monday seeking a judgment as a matter of law, telling a judge that Cox has "wholly failed to present evidence sufficient to establish any defense in this action."
The music publisher, which controls rights to works by David Bowie, Bruno Mars, Frank Ocean and many other artists, states that it has shown that its agent Rightscorp detected 1.847 million instances of infringement and collected more than 150,000 copies of copyrighted works downloaded directly from Cox subscribers.
BMG is pushing for a verdict that would find Cox liable for direct, contributory and vicarious copyright infringement. The publisher asserts that Cox had actual knowledge of subscribers' infringement, provided sites and facilities for which the infringement occurred, had the right and ability to supervise the infringing activity and obtained a direct financial benefit from the infringements.
Cox could be facing hundreds of millions of dollars in damages.
BMG argues that Cox cannot qualify as an "innocent" infringer, with reduced statutory damages of $200 per work, because of the notice given to the ISP from Rightscorp. BMG also says no reasonable juror can conclude it failed to mitigate damages by taking actions such as suing torrent indexing sites.
The motion (read here) also attempts to rebut certain defenses that Cox initially raised in the lawsuit including copyright misuse (BMG says there's no evidence it committed anticompetitive behavior), statute of limitations or subject matter jurisdiction.
Cox will soon oppose the motion and in the meantime, the Internet service provider is eyeing jury instructions.
Although Cox lost the safe-harbor battle in last month's summary judgment opinion, it did win one aspect of the undercard by getting a judge to nix an attempt to have "making available" included as part of a copyright owner's distribution rights. The judge wrote that distribution is not interchangeable with publication.
Cox looks to preserve that victory and tells a judge that BMG is attempting to revive the "making available" argument in jury instructions by arguing that the Napster case decided that uploading file titles to an index constitutes distribution. Cox says instead that BMG must show an "actual dissemination of a copyright work" for purposes of direct infringement.
The issue could be meaningful, or at least figures to be the centerpiece of Cox's closing arguments over what BMG has failed to prove.
Elsewhere in its legal brief (see here), Cox writes, "Plaintiffs have not submitted any evidence of an actual upload by a user of the Cox Internet service to another Internet user. The only evidence of actual distributions of plaintiffs' works are the downloads performed by plaintiffs' own agent Rightscorp or its expert Barbara Frederiksen-Cross."
As for contributory infringement, Cox is also urging the jury not to be instructed on willful blindness. It argues, "Cox believes that neither any court in the Fourth Circuit nor the Supreme Court has ever held that willful blindness is considered to be knowledge in copyright law, and Plaintiffs cite no such authority."

text: Tesla's battery is a great innovation. The other day when I was passing by a farmer's field and saw the pollutants coming out of his tractor, I said that the Tesla battery could power that tractor/combine easily. Would save the farmer a heck of a lot of money. Once the gigafactory is built, and battery supply is not a constraint for making its cars, I wonder if Tesla will explore other uses for its batteries. Of course John Deere, Catapillar , would have to want their future models to be electric. (Telsa would just supply the battery pack/inverter). Could be a win-win for everyone. Until then, enjoy driving your Tesla !

I'd nearly given up on Alan Yau restaurants. Wagamama I love, Busaba is ok as long as you order the right thing, Hakkasan is decent enough as long as I'm not paying, Cha Cha Moon is not and Sake No Hana is, well, a disaster.
So allow me to have been a sceptic when my flatmate Neil kept going on and on about how good Yauatcha was. And allow me to be completely and entirely wrong. Yauatcha should be renamed Yumatcha. I loved everything.
We went for Neil's birthday as a surprise, and even from walking in and seeing the very delicious looking mini desserts in the waiting area, we all started to get excited. The modern decor, vibrant blues and wicked exotic fish tank in reception were all witness to one of the best meals I've had so far this year.
The menu is immense. So much to choose from that we had a difficult time even knowing where to start. First on the list though was the Char Siu Bun:
Fluffy, slightly sweet puffs filled with tender, savoury pork. Normally Char Siu, though almost always tasty, tends to be sticky and difficult to eat, but these were perfect.
The Soft Shell Crab and Salted Egg Croquette were a favourite of mine. The crunchy crab offset by silky egg was served on top of a citrus sweet chilli sauce. There was a lot going on here, but it worked.
The Spicy Szechuan Dumpling was little gloopy for my taste. I found it a tad overwhelming, but it was a hit with the table.
Jasmine Tea Smoked Ribs were tender and delicious, only slightly accented (not overpowered) by hints of floral.
The Crispy Duck Rolls came out piping hot, nearly bursting full of proper duck meat, not just a few slivers like most places. The hoison was rich and plummy, and my only complaint is that they took it off the table too soon!
The Sticky Rice in Lotus Leaf was incredibly aromatic for what is essential rice and chicken. The rice had the noticeable sweetness that comes with being drizzled with mirin, which was a nice balance for the largely soy and ginger-based chicken.
The Sweet Potato Mei-si Roll was a surprise. Similar in taste and texture to a bird's nest, the crispy bits on the outside were a crunchy, salty bit of fun, while the inside was silky smooth. Utterly delicious.
I could go on and on, but I'll stop the love-in. Bad reviews are more fun to write (and read) than good ones anyway. I can't wait to go back to Yauatcha though. It's maybe not an everyday kind of place – the dim sum plates range from about £5-£15 and for three of us with drinks, we were out for under £100 – but for the special occasion or birthday meal, it's perfect. I can't wait to go back.

First there were two....
...then there were 4....yay..
I am really loving the way this quilt is looking already, which is inspiring me to get it together.
My friend Alison called in to use our tables to pin baste her gorgeous Zealandia quilt which was the last BOM that Quilt Works ran. It was an exclusive to us quilt and was made from New Zealand fabrics but it is still available through Quilt Works in Lower Hutt. It looks so good Alison...
And then we have the heart quilt....today I finished row 4...whoopee only 2 left to go. Fighting off a sore throat and a few aches and pains that are beginning to develop, but the quilting must go on!
This is my new favourite ruler on my longarm machine. It is called a Deloa's Boomerang ruler and is designed for curved cross hatching. I have found it great to use going around the tiny little pieces of applique.
Today I had a lovely morning tea with about 20 church friends at one of our local cafes. It was Gale's idea, and what a good idea it was. I have to say the noise level of 20 plus females talking was fairly substantial...lol.
Tomorrow I have a lunch date with Sally up at the Church, so another little escape from the building!!! It is quite good to have these breaks mind you, as staring at black background for hours is rather hard.
Ok you are now updated. Kerry has cooked dinner (again) and it smells yummy....chops and veges...just delicious.
Keep on quilting and talk to you again soon.

Bonus Stages in Super Street Fighter IV confirmed by Famitsu
Aditya from the Shoryuken forums just posted some scans from the latest Famitsu magazine and it reveals the return of bonus stages in SSFIV! Not only that but the scans also give insight to some of the new online features.
Thanks to the keen eye of those at iplaywinner, these new details regarding Super Street Fighter IV have come to our attention. As of right now the scans show Ryu fighting a car, just like the good ol' days. There is also a screenshot of the classic room of barrels for some wood kicking action.
According to Kajiki from SRK, there are three new online modes in Super Street Fighter IV:
Pretty cool. It seems like 8 players is the max they think they will be able to support online, which is more than enough imo.
So now we have:
Endless Battle : Basically a lobby system. Hopefully like quarter match, and im hoping that spectators will not contribute to lag issues. (8 players max)
Team Battle : Ranging from 2v2 to 4v4. (Guessing that it is based of a points system.)
Replay Channel : Watch match replays with other players online. Voice chat enabled.
This is definitely exciting and despite the game not releasing until sometime next year, there is already so much hype for SSFIV. If you want to view the scans, definitely check out the link below from iplaywinner.
Details are still being translated by the awesome people at SRK, so as more information becomes available, we'll keep you updated.

Apple launched the world's most awaited gadget, the iPhone 5. It is made of glass and aluminium and is taller, leaner, lighter, shinier and packs in much more punch than ever. It comes in two colours – slate (black) and silver, with aluminium finish, but no white.
iPhone 5 will cost the same as its predecessor – $199, $299 and $399 for 16, 32 and 64GB versions respectively.
The new iPhone 5 is 7.66mm thick, almost 18% thinner than its predecessor iPhone 4S, weighs just 112 gram, that is 20% lighter than 4S. It has Retina display with 326 pixels per inch, 1136 x 640 pixel resolution and 16:9 aspect ratio for full-screen movie playback.
The iPhone 5 runs on a new dual-core Cortex A6 processor based on A-15 chips from ARM, which makes the device twice as fast as its predecessor without being quad-core and uses a common chip for voice as well as data, along with a single radio chip.
Apple reworked the battery of iPhone 5 with 225 hours of standby time. This includes 8 hours of 3G and 4G LTE browsing, 8 hours of 3G talk time, 10 hours of Wifi browsing, 10 hours of video playback and 40 hours of music play.
The phone sports an 8MP HD rear camera with panorama mode (at 28MP), backside illumination, hybrid IR filter, five element lens, and f/24 aperture.It is 25% smaller than the snapper on iPhone 4S and includes dynamic low light mode, sapphire crystal and precision lens alignment, all of which is enough for iPhone 5 to be taken seriously for its camera.
The front camera in iPhone 5 for FaceTime will now support HD videos at 720p. It has an aluminium rear sensor and features three microphones – one each at the bottom, top and rear. For further audio enhancement during FaceTime calls, iPhone 5 features a new beamforming, directional microphone system, with background noise cancellation technology.
The iOS6 users can now share pictures via iCloud's Shared Photo Streams using the iPhone 5.
iPhone 5 will have LTE 4G functionality that can transfer data at much faster rate. The phone will be able to switch between antennae in order to support the network.
Apple said the iPhone 5 will not be compatible with existing sim cards. This means iPhone 5 users will have to move to new nano sim cards to be issued by the operators around the world in sync with the phone's launch.

Baku. 16 June. REPORT.AZ/ The US-based Hill newspaper has published an article on economic development of Azerbaijan headlined "Azerbaijan, oil and the 21st century."
Report informs, written by Raoul Lowery Contreras the article says:" In 2015, oil means energy, natural gas means energy; oil and natural gas mean money, power and entry into the 21st century.
We find that to be true in Azerbaijan in the South Caucasus Mountains, bordering Iran to the south, Turkey and Armenia to the west, with Georgia and Russia to the north. History has been made here since the days of the Silk Road.
I visited a Muslim mosque constructed 800 years ago and the touched walls of Baku's "Old City," a walled fortress from which Azerbaijanis battled Persians and Russians for hundreds of years. Baku, Azerbaijan's capital city, surrounds the historical fortress with hotels, office buildings and a totally modern city.
Baku had been a world leader in oil production since the 1880s; without that oil, in World War II the Soviets could not have resisted the Germans in for months, maybe even weeks. In fact, Azerbaijan produced 80 percent of all the oil and gas used by the Soviet army throughout the entire war.
Azerbaijan stumbled as an independent country to begin with; it only had two years (1918-1920) of democratic experience in its entire history.
Armenian invaders attacked Azerbaijan, claiming thousands of square miles of its territory, focusing on Armenian-populated Nagorno-Karabakh (Karabakh means "black garden"). Armenians still occupy almost one-fifth of Azerbaijan in 2015. The U.N. Security Council has issued several resolutions condemning Armenia for its invasion of Azerbaijan, which Armenia ignores.
Nonetheless, the 80 percent of Azerbaijan that Armenia doesn't occupy has become a modern country bursting with vision, construction and energy unrivaled in the part of the world so few know about.
Outside the walled 13th-century Old City, the eyes are exhausted from seeing the new construction occurring in all parts of the city.
Gleaming high-rise buildings are everywhere.
More important than buildings are the people. Azerbaijan is a 90-percent Muslim country. Yet it is the most diverse country this writer has ever experienced outside the U.S.
In a single day, I visited two mosques; a Roman Catholic Church with a Czech-born priest who answers directly to the Pope; a Russian Orthodox Church and a working and thriving Jewish synagogue in downtown Baku.
Besides the ubiquitous new construction, the most instant example of an energetic country is in being the site of the first-ever European Games — starting today, June 12 — in which 6,000 athletes will compete in new facilities, including a stadium holding 68,000. The European Games' paid-staff numbers 2,000, of which 25 percent are Azeris. Three-thousand officials will man the Games, as will 10,000 volunteers.
Even Armenia will participate in the Games, despite a state of war existing between both countries interrupted by a 20-year-long cease-fire.
Azerbaijan is a vital energetic, proudly multicultural country built on ancient history, religious tolerance and secularism, hydrocarbons and an educated people bursting with energy, vision and optimism. They deeply desire to be part of a modern secular Western world; they very work hard at it.

The Hatelistings.Com is closing :(. In my opinion it's a shame that TH.org has never given credit to TH.Com when everybody knows that they were the ones who put the idea into practice. TH.Com didn't allow "personal hate": it was like a "light" version of hatelistings; anyway I find it right that TH.org has a place for less "politically correct" hatelistings, but it's a real pity that they never mention TH.com. The most pathetic part about it is that so many people promoted the rivalry between TH.org and TH.com. I personally would like to open a hatelisting for such a rivalry 😯 .
My War Hatelisting, oficially approved by TH.com (the original one) will remain online, so feel free to keep aplying and visiting it from time to time. I know there's another War Hatelisting approved by TH.org, but oh well… I hate any kind of wars, so of course I will tell you that you are free to apply in both, I don't really mind if you have
a link up to my site or not, as long as you try to promote a war-free vision of the world ❗
My best wishes to Rob and Tara… Hey guys, if you are reading this, remember you can count on me: I really think you are talented people and you shouldn't get upset by a couple of dorks out there :dead: Lots of love and long life to those hatelisting which started in the TH.Com Network :luv:

Hounding Fox
Today's column for the Daily Banter takes a look at a big and somewhat surprising milestone for MSNBC, one that could signal a shift in cable news viewing habits -- or could just be a hiccup.
Here's the opening shot:
"Several years ago, when I was still working at CNN, there was a morning where I walked into anchor Carol Costello's office to find her buried in the overnight numbers. I plunked myself down in the comfortable chair in front of her desk and waited for her to finish going through the not-so-rosy details and, sure enough, after a minute or two she dropped the paperwork, rolled her eyes in exasperation and sighed, 'I don't get it — how does Fox do it?' I chuckled a little, then answered, 'Because Fox News is a brand, not a product.'"

I wonder if CNN Worldwide President
Jim Walton resigning, may yet be
another signal of a shift in
cable news?
I've always been interested in what 'the other side' has to say, but I can't find anything that isn't completely shit-house-rat crazy.
Liberals and conservatives can't have serious conversations in the current political climate. And that is really very unfortunate.

I love this question about questions!
"I have a 25 month old. When he was 18 months he didn't ask 'What's that?" but I also never said that phrase to him. Instead I just pointed out words and said them to him. If he pointed to a word he didn't know as if asking a question I would tell him the word. Now he has asked me "Why?" once and asks "Where" questions but not what. Should I start asking him "What's that?" I did it this morning and he can answer the question but he didn't ask me what's that in return."
Yes you should! A toddler has to hear EVERYTHING, that's every single word FIRST, in order to learn how to say it.
Books are a fantastic way to teach kids to ask, "What's that?" Just point to a picture he knows and excitedly ask, "What's that?" You'll get lots of practice with this during one activity.
Do the same thing with his bathtub toys. As you're about to put them in the tub, hold them up and excitedly ask, "What's that?"
Every time he points to something new, say "Oh… you want to know what's that?" It sounds a little odd to use this phrase until you practice saying it a few times, but it's how I teach a child to ask this question in therapy. It's also how I recommend to parents teach it at home and it really works!
He may not ask you the question himself in the next few days, but my guess is you'll start to hear him ask "What's that?" in the next few weeks.
Since he's already asking other kinds of questions, he obviously understands how to ask questions.
For a child who isn't asking any questions, take a look at how he's 'asking' for other things. Does he say, "Cookie?" when he's asking if he can have another cookie or "Ball?" to mean… where is my ball?
Before a child begins to use a real wh- question word (such as what, where, who, or why) at the beginning of a phrase, he will use a rise in intonation at the end of a word or phrase to ask you something. If a toddler is not doing this already, be sure you are using an exaggerated question inflection/tone as you speak to him when you're asking questions.
Talking in a monotone voice or a voice with a 'glottal fry' is fairly common these days. I hear it more and more in my work with young families. Sometimes parents who don't use lots of inflection changes in their voices when they speak can teach their kids to begin asking questions just by paying attention to how many questions they model and how they use their voices to 'teach' this concept.
Hope these ideas help!!
Learning to answer questions is HARD too for toddlers with language delays. Read more about questions – both answering and asking – in this post.

The bonus was there were LOTS of birds actively feeding and finding roosting sites (wasn't formally counting but estimate 30+ species in 45 minutes from Beach Road to the Bird Hide along the coast and back along Lake Borrie).
The downside was clouds came in making it prematurely dark so photography was difficult.
The highlight was this pair of Cape Barren Geese aggressively defending a small mound (just north of the bridge over the Lake Borrie outlet) from gulls, pelicans, ravens and even a Willie Wagtail.

TangoMan | Brooklyn, NY | 11/04/2005
(4 out of 5 stars)
"When I was little my favorite thing about the holidays was the TV specials -- Rudolph, Charlie Brown and Frosty the Snowman.
This new movie is a sweet and funny follow-up to the original Frosty.
"Legend of Frosty" is great because it's a tribute to the classic holiday stories, but it also has fun with the genre.
Just like the old specials, it's hosted by a celebrity narrator. But instead of Jimmy Durante or Burle Ives, we get Burt Reynolds -- ha! Perfect choice.
The town of Evergreen is a picture-perfect place. Fans of "The Iron Giant" will love the story of a 1950s town that needs to be shaken up by a larger-than-life character. (Adding to that retro-look, the villain is a dead-ringer for Adelai Stevenson and Sgt. Bilko!) Frosty challenges the rules and conformity of the adults simply by teaching kids to play. That might sound corny or over-simple, but it's true.
The plot/characters relate back to the original Frosty. I don't want to give anything away here, because one of my favorite things about the movie is the way they reveal the story. It's rare that a family film explores how cycles play out over generations.
One of the nice surprises of "Legend" is the relationship between a father and a son. It's surprisingly touching for a cartoon. (again, it reminds me of "The Iron Giant")
This is definitely a great movie for parents and kids to watch together. And the voices include actors from Spongebob!
I'm giving it 4 out of 5 stars because the DVD extras weren't all that exciting. But don't buy it for the extras - get it for the movie. Makes an excellent double-feature with the original Frosty.
The Legend of Frosty
Augustus Lyons | 11/07/2005
(4 out of 5 stars)
"My family and I enjoyed this movie, especially our 8 year old son. It portrays Frosty and his magic in the background of a surburban fiefdom. The voice of Burt Reynolds navigates us into the lives of several children yearning for some magic and fun amoungst the rigidness of societal norms. By the end we remember the fun of snowball fights, sledding, ice skating and appropriately breaking the rules. I recommend this movie to young families."
An instant classic!
JScott | Burlington, VT | 11/08/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)
"Legend of Frosty is a warm, endearing movie that is true to the original while being original in its own right. The story, characters, and animation were on par with my favorite holiday specials, and Burt Reynolds was perfect as the narrator. More importantly, the toughest critics of all, my kids, loved it more than I did. It's a great movie to watch with the whole family."
JScott | 12/06/2005
(4 out of 5 stars)
"I watched the DVD with my 7 year old daughter and I must say that I never thought I would enjoy it so much. And not only was the movie great, but so were the games. She just wanted to play them over and over again. I highly recommend this movie to everyone as it reminded me of my childhood."

Starting November 2012, all the tyres sold in Europe are obliged to have an explanatory label* on the following criteria:
- Fuel consumption
- Breaking distance on wet surface
- Sound produced by the tyre
This label should influence the buyer in his purchasing decision towards the best possible tyre for his/her needs.
For our client, we have to produce short animation films that will be used on their website and will be shared via social media.
- Content of the animation
- Fuel consumption – a short animation film (max 1 min) that explains fuel consumption based on the tyre model. With tyre A you can drive 1000km. With tyre G you can drive 925 km. Also show all the driving distances from the models in between A & G.
- Breaking distance on a wet surface – a short animation film (max 1 min) that explains the breaking distance based on the tyre model. The breaking distance with tyres type A will be 25 m, the breaking distance with tyre types G will be 45 m. Also show all the breaking distances from the models in between A & G.
- Sound produced by the tyre – a short animation film (max 45") where people can hear the difference between different tyre sounds. A tyre labeled B will produce 72dB. A tyre labeled G will produce 83dB
- Style of the animation
Think http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skb2gKR7rOk">Lalinea simple lines, self explanatory and understandable for a worldwide audience.

Tour Highlights
The day begins with by a ascending to Cairngorm's finest and much overlooked N. ridge. The views across the plateau to Ben Macdui and beyond are stunning – a real mountain wilderness.
We are off to Strathspey Badger Hide to see and learn about the nocturnal habits of these very striking animals.
1050m of steady ascent involving gentle and moderate gradients. 10 miles (16km) of walking on some footpaths but mainly on moderately rough terrain (boulders set in gravel). Approx walking time excluding breaks: 6:30
starts with a steady climb into the dramatic "Corrie of the Snows", Corrie an t-Sneachda. Before getting hemmed in by foreboding cliffs and precipitous slopes we exit left to climb more steeply to gain the plateau rim. From here, with a feeling of elevation and stunning views back down into the corries, the route eases as it takes in the more gentle undulations of the plateau. Amongst typical high Cairngorm splendour of Scotland's highest peaks and with an ever increasing sense of wilderness we make our approach to Ben Macdui's mysterious summit and the legend of its Big Grey Man!
Our return leg takes us high above the huge defile of the Lairig Ghru with spectacular views onto the huge cliffs and peaks of Britain's 3rd 4th and 5th highest peaks. We then make a long gentle drop back down to our starting point to complete this very enjoyable circuit.
880m of ascent involving gentle and moderate gradients. 10 miles (16km) of walking on footpaths and moderately rough terrain (boulders set in gravel) plus the odd boulder field. Approx walking time excluding breaks: 6:00
We asked our guests what sets Scot Mountain Holidays apart, why they return year after year:
"the social aspect" – "the camaraderie, food and conversation" –
"the company of the hosts" – "so warm and welcoming" –
"a profound sense of belonging" – "the welcome of Rebecca's home cooked meal" – "Andy's skills as a guide, naturalist and leader" – "stewardship, sustainability and a small footprint" – "in harmony with the land" – "a slice of rural Scottish life"
Scot Mountain Holidays is the ONLY adventure tour operator in Highlands of Scotland with a combined home and guest lodge. We strive to be more than just an tour. We aim to provide you with a 'home away from home' on your adventures. We thought of no better way of doing this than to welcome you into our own home.
We have owned and operated Fraoch Lodge as our home base and business since 1999. In that time, we have come to embrace our guests as members of our extended Highland family.
We source our meals from locally produced and home grown ingredients to provide you with the most delicious flavours and traditions the area has to offer (while minimising our impact on the environment, too). Our dining room and lounge are shared spaces where we gather with guests and friends to share in the holiday and offer you extensive knowledge of your tour.
No matter the season, the Cairngorms and Fraoch Lodge is a place to relax and explore all its beauty and comforts, and we hope to make you feel as at home as we are.
We have achieved Gold Star Awards from the world's most highly respected green accreditation scheme, Green Tourism, and were awarded Highly Commended in their Green Star Awards 2013 for both Scot Mountain Holidays and Fraoch Lodge. We offer a Green Travel Discount of £15 to any guests who travel to us by public transport. Our primary aim is to minimise the carbon footprint of our holidays, and to this end we donate 1% of the price of our tours to the RSPB's Abernethy Reforestation project.
It is a holistic approach we have to the care of the environment. Andy your adventure guide has a passion for the natural world – whether it's the flora, fauna or fungi. He has a background in geology and a lifelong interest in natural history, as well as being a keen gardener. He knows a Golden Plover from a Dotterel, a Green Shank and a Dunlin. He also makes no apologies to being very excitable upon spying a Golden Eagle!

"Life has no remotes, so wake up and change it" ~ Sushil Singh
I found this quote while searching for inspiration to resurrect this blog.
Imagine a giant Life remote control. Pause. Play. Fast Forward. Rewind… hmm…rewind."If i could turn back time.." (Cher singing in background) Wouldn't it be great to say, "hey i didn't like the way that worked out, lets start over." Rewind.
New Years Eve comes filled with that hope. Filled with dreams of doing things differently, or more, or better. It comes with this delusion that at 11:59:59 you can wipe away all that you have done, all your bad habits and start over. You wake up on January 1st, a new person, a new life. But how do you make it last? How do you change your life?
How am I going to change MY life? this year.
These are things i think about while driving to work, while running, and while writing this blog. I want to change. I want to evolve. I want new things and new experiences and new friends. (I do still love my old ones) I don't want to change my life, i want to enhance my life. I want to add to my life. Not that i am missing anything. I just want more life.
I'm setting specific goals this year. Goals for MY life. Im putting them in writing. I'm putting them here. Some are physical, some are for my health, some are for my home, and some are for my mental well being.
- Six marathons in 2017. 1 will be a PR. 5 will be for fun.
- Join CREW! Yes, iv'e wanted to row a boat forever. Now is my forever.
- Mt. Rushmore. Seriously..i still have not made it there.
- Complete an Ultra
- Save money. Stop self soothing with shopping.
- Drop the sugar. Be aware of my intakes and cut back.
- Be aware of others emotions. Recognize projection and prevent your reaction.
- Create a compassionate dementia program at work. Educate.
- Breath, stay calm, apply the 24 hour rule and believe in myself.
- Live a Life.
Now, i've put it into the universe. Now i need to find the faith in myself to reach these 10 goals. I realize they may not all happen immediately. They will evolve and progress and maybe change slightly. But i'm setting the path. I'm saying it out loud.
Today. These are the goals for my Life.
"Year's end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can still instill in us" – Hal Borland
Happy 2017.

A 2 or 3 board press is performed in the same manner as a standard bench press.
Have a spotter place a 2 or 3 board thickness on your chest, comfortably within the downward pressing plane so that you do not roll the barbell off the boards upon lowering the bar. Lower the bar until it touches the boards, and then press the bar up until your arms are locked.
As the 2 or 3 board press is used to improve bench press lockout strength from varying heights, many lifters will bounce the barbell slightly off the boards to gain momentum. This is not advised unless you are an experienced lifter.

Below is the final publication design, 'Sexual Objection, The How NOT To' Guide, which is created in the style of Riot Grrrl zines.
This publication has been very difficult to make, a lot more difficult than originally thought, due to the style, because as a designer this isn't a style I have ever created work in before, however it had to be made in this particular style as a tribute and follow on from the Riot Grrrl zines. Of course it is different from the Riot Grrrl zines, as it is more up to date - it uses coloured ink instead of coloured stock and won't be printed through photocopying, and it will have a real cover on to protect, as I wanted the publication to stand out and be kept pristine by the advertisers who in theory would receive a copy.

Govan Community Council Conference
deprivation and development in working class communities
Pearce Institute, Govan, Glasgow
The Pearce Institute
Community participation and urban regeneration
Dr Charles Collins, School of Social Sciences, Paisley University
John McAllion's discussion of the experience of Whitfield under the New Life for Urban Scotland programme will have reminded many of us of the dark days of the late 1980s - when a right wing government with an ideologically driven hostility to municipal housing was promoting stock transfer on the false basis that it would empower tenants; was forcing local authorities to 'buy into' so-called 'regeneration initiatives' about which they had serious reservations; was talking about tackling poverty at the same time as increasing inequality; and was trying to sell the idea that a 'spirit of enterprise' was what was needed to transform the experience of areas of poverty and deprivation.
Unfortunately, as anyone who is even modestly abreast of the current situation will know, this is by and large what still confronts us today. For the fact is that while the New Life for Urban Scotland programme failed to get even remotely close to achieving the kinds of objectives trumpeted for it in 1988, it has been worryingly successful in another respect. It has been crucial in helping to establish what is seen by politicians, civil servants and people working in the various agencies, local government and the voluntary sector as 'the right basis' - indeed the only basis - on which to develop work towards 'urban regeneration'.
A new consensus has emerged about 'working in partnership', and in reality this means a lot more than it seems to on the surface. It does not just mean that departments, organizations, agencies and communities should all work together to try to bring about the best possible impact on problems. No-one is, or could be, opposed to that - at least in principle (though when one studies relationships at the highest level of government one wonders about what right the current incumbents have to lecture anyone about 'joined-up government' or 'partnership working').
What it means in practical terms is stock transfer, reducing the role of the public sector, promoting 'flexible labour markets' (meaning temporary, non-union labour on poverty wages), and a wholly unrealistic expectation about what the private sector and the 'spirit of enterprise' is ever likely to contribute. In short, it means continuing with all the same themes and ideas which, since 1988, have failed to deliver on stated regeneration objectives. Indeed, at this moment we are in the process of constructing yet another generation of partnerships to work to this agenda - the Community Planning Partnerships which have been made statutory by recent legislation from the Scottish Parliament.
Just how significant the history of failure behind all this has been has become more apparent over the past 5 years or so. The New Life programme established 'partnerships' in 4 areas - Whitfield, Wester Hailes, Castlemilk and Ferguslie Park. They were to have a 10 year life-span and were to transform the areas as a demonstration of the virtues of the 'partnership approach'. The final evaluation of their implementation was published in 1999. Unfortunately, New Labour gave a ringing endorsement to the New Life model a year in advance of the evaluation - and so made the 'partnership approach' the basis of their social inclusion programme and the SIPs. What the evaluation subsequently showed, when one read beyond the very carefully worded, and somewhat misleading, executive summary, was the extent of the failure of the New Life partnerships.
There was £485 million worth of expenditure in just these 4 areas. This, of course, brought housing and environmental improvements - though at the expense of other areas that were starved of investment to pay for it - but by no means on the comprehensive scale that had been envisaged. Labour market participation fell in two of the four areas, and did not seem to impact on the original populations. Beyond housing, the research could turn up no significant improvements in the quality of life on the estates, and in several respects things seemed to get worse. 'Partnership working' amounted to much too little in practice, and local participation on the whole seemed to prove to be a disempowering experience for community groups, and was in some areas disastrous. Yet this 'partnership approach' was what the SIPs were meant to take forward - and with far less in the way of resources to fund them.
Little wonder then that they seem also to have failed. This is made clear in research that was carried out for Communities Scotland to inform the current move to community planning - and the integration of the SIPs into that framework. The difference is that in this report there is no attempt made to mask the reality of the failure. The twist comes in terms of the blame. There is nothing wrong with the basic 'partnership' model, it is claimed. The problem is with the implementers. In future, implementers will have to do better, and will have to be held accountable where they do not. It is time, the report concludes for a "ruthless recognition" of weaknesses in implementation. Of course, where in the New Life programme it was the government themselves who were the lead implementers, now it is local authorities who are to be charged with that responsibility. The irony that we recognise implementation weaknesses at this stage will not be lost on people here today.
Thus the scenario for the coming phase of regeneration policy in Scotland is one that should cause real concern. Local authorities will have a statutory responsibility to lead Community Planning Partnerships which, among other things, will have to 'close the gap' between the poorest communities and the rest of the country. They will be obliged to work on the basis of the 'partnership' approach that has not worked in the past and is not likely to start working now. They will then be held accountable, and blamed, for it not working. They will become even more the target for the frustrations and resentments of local community groups. Indeed they will be expected to facilitate their meaningful participation, despite the fact that they are saddled with an approach which has been shown to have led to the exact opposite of that when central government were themselves in the driving seat. It is a situation in which localities can only lose, and in which we are likely to see further centralisation of power in Edinburgh.
It is, in other words, a situation that cries out for change. We have heard this morning a number of suggestions for change in key areas, and in the coming workshops we will have the opportunity to discuss these and make suggestions.
Mike Dailly highlighted the need for change in housing policy. What we have had for the past 25 years has been more of a tenure than a housing policy - and the earlier priority given to concerns about the quantity and quality of affordable housing has been at best secondary to that. We need to think about how housing policy must change if we are to have stable and balanced communities within rented housing. What are the implications in terms of rents and housing finance? Who is going to provide this housing? Mike Dailly also pointed to problems in the planning system, and to the need to give much greater priority for planning for such stable and balanced communities. What are the changes that are required here?
But in thinking about housing and planning we also come up against some of the broader assumptions of current government thinking that were mentioned by Mike Danson. For the government's broader economic strategies, as expressed in Smart Successful Scotland and the Framework for Economic Development that underpins it, seem to presume not just the continuation of housing and planning policy along current lines, but their intensificiation - more stock transfers to access private capital, a loosening of democratic controls on planning, to say nothing of the continuing emphases on the supply side, flexible labour markets and entrepreneurship that have in the past failed to deliver for areas in need of regeneration. Just how is it that we might conceive a framework for economic development in Scotland that works for local communities seeking regeneration, rather than against them?
And of course John McAllion and myself have talked about some of the specifics and some of the generalities in what is called 'community regeneration' at the moment. Here too there seems to be a clear need for change. This is likely to require that at least some in the local authorities are willing to break away from the 'group think' identified by Baillie Flanagan - according to which anyone who dissents from the prevailing consensus about 'the right' approach is deemed to be a bit mad. What needs to be made clear is that the irrationality in this discussion lies among those who continue to adhere to a model which has been shown to fail over such a protracted period. So, how might community groups develop their own assessment of the failures of the 'partnership' model, and how might they seek to develop an alternative? What would that alternative model look like? How might communities build a coalition which could project that alternative as a serious contender in public debate? In the current context we should be aware that at least some local authorities could be brought into this. The move to community planning seems to hold real dangers for them, and if they can be made aware of this then perhaps community groups and local authorities might begin to rebuild relations and raise critical questions about the 'partnership' approach to regeneration.
These are just a few of the areas and issues that have arisen today. The proposal is that now we should break into two groups and try to identify the 3 key policy changes that we think are required if we are to bring about meaningful and sustainable improvements in the lives of working class communities in Scotland today. Groups should then feed back their suggestions when we reconvene.

Following its much anticipated opening, the Stepping Stone Discovery Collection of homes by Shea has nearly sold out of its first release. Pricing, innovative designs, and location are attracting buyers to this outstanding new community in Parker, Colorado. Twenty-one of the twenty-four initial homesites released have been purchased. Come see for yourself what the buzz is all about. With another lot release in the near future, you will want to have your name added to the priority list.
Step into a new-home evolution
Base priced from the upper $200s – mid $400s, and ranging in size from 1,863 – 3,100 square feet, the SPACES Discovery Collection at Stepping Stone is a new collection of homes that are smart and practical – just the way you live your life. From the character of the exterior elevations to the clean lines and interior finishes, these ten plans integrate traditional and modern influences inside and out. The flexibility of SPACES allows you to express yourself in how you define your surroundings. Forget compartmentalized rooms. A SPACES home grants you the freedom to create the areas you desire most.
In offering SPACES, Shea Homes invites buyers to step into the future of new homes. In addition to minimalist design, SPACES homes are affordable and energy efficient with an irresistible 'cool' factor. Complementing these cutting-edge homes is a lingo to match. Instead of the traditional labels of bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens and great rooms, SPACES cleverly labels these living spaces as dreams and sleeps, splashes and washes, cooks, watches, eats, and chats. These unconventional plans offer three to six sleeps, options for covered outdoor living spaces, and unfinished basements with crawl spaces. Can you guess what non-traditional label "park" represents? Hint: six of the Discovery Collection plans have 2-car parks with electric car charging stations and the remaining plans have 3-car parks. SPACES – a new kind of home for all kinds of lifestyles, from first-time homebuyers to active adults.
Step away from the Ho-hum
Life is about connecting one amazing experience to another – like stepping stones – until they form a direction that is entirely, uniquely your own. This is the philosophy behind the newest community by Shea Homes in Parker, Colorado. Stepping Stone is a place that invites you to explore, discover, and delight in redefining "home" while finding the perfect fit for your family.
Shea Homes has an excellent reputation for well-designed, award-winning communities and homes.

Great Recommendation with the pasteurized eggs. With all these recent egg recalls, you can never be to sure. I have used shelled pasteurized eggs for a few years now. I mean I am concerned with what I eat,and also look at those who I´m cooking for. With the holiday season in full bloom, making cookies, eggnog, and other egg products are common in my kitchen at home. I know that I have a safe product and that the finished food will be safe for all who I am cooking for. Thanks for that initial recommendation I personally think its great.
Happy holidays,

It has been a long time since posting, it feels like almost a life time ago. We got a bit slack and never really gave the blog the finish it deserved. Left you all lingering in Switzerland.
It was a bit of a non eventful finish, with a few brief stop offs in the rest of the countries we traveled through on the way back to the UK arriving in time for Christmas and New Years with friends and family.
We traveled home to Oz after New Years with a quick stop in Malaysia to see some of my family.
Like is back to normal now, and we are locked into the every day rat race with a mortgage, full time jobs and two dogs to care for.
We even sold the troopy!!! but bought another more offroad capable 80 series Cruiser, so get out bush and have a bit of fun when we can.
After hooking up with Nic that we met in Kazakhstan back here in OZ I thought it was time I out together some of our footage and made a video of probably one of the highlights, the Pamir Highway.

My current location is thousands of kilometers from Ubuntu's main server and I am obliged to use one of its mirrors in my country of domicile.
Do the owners of Ubuntu implement measures to periodically check their files (eg. ISOs, updates, security patches) at their mirror sites have not been tampered and/or malware/trojans have not been introduced by hackers?
My personal experience with installing and updating Ubuntu from the main server took at least two hours whereas the same process took just 10 to 15 minutes when I used Ubuntu mirror site available in my country.

Welcome to the Kickstarter for The Center of Somewhere vol. 2: All Over But the Shouting. This 112-page, full-color graphic novel collects the final two years of The Center of Somewhere, my all-ages comedy webcomic. The Center of Somewhere stars a gang of humans, talking animals, and ghosts having somewhat surreal fun in small-town middle America.
The stories in this comic are pretty standalone, so if you haven't read volume 1, never fear, you won't be lost (and if you do want to read volume 1, too, don't worry. We took care of you in the rewards section).
This book is ideal for folks of all ages. Yes, there are jokes for the kids and it's a good book to give to a kid, but that doesn't mean it's only for children. There are plenty of jokes to entertain people of all ages.
The book collects every strip from Jan. 31, 2014 to Jan. 29, 2016. Production is DONE. The strips are all drawn, the pages have been laid out and proofed, and the cover has been colored and assembled.
I am asking for just $2,000, which will go exclusively to production costs. The bulk of that will cover printing, with some of it going to paying the cover colorist. If we get beyond that I have some stretch goals in mind to make the book even bigger and better, but that would be the only case where I would need to do extra work before sending it to the printer.
If you like what you see, please tell your friends. The Center of Somewhere was legitimately fun to write and draw and I hope as many people as possible would like to read it. And with your support, that dream can happen. So thank you very much, and please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
Risks and challenges
There are very few risks to backing this project. All of the pages are drawn, colored, proofed, and laid out, and the cover has been colored, so all that remains once I'm funded is to send it to the printer. It usually takes about a month to get the books back, and once I do I'll be able to sign them, sketch in them, and send them off. For people getting just the sketch cards, all I need to do is draw them and mail them out. I don't foresee any delays in getting things out, so barring any issues with the post office, you'll have your reward as soon as promised. If anything does come up, I guarantee I'll let you know as soon as I do.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

I got these gorgeous pictures of Gillian and her fashion from the HBO website... I higly recommend watching the slideshow in full size. What a dream of decadent fabrics, colours and details... *sigh*

Welcome to one of the professions that has a very high depression rate. I'm sure someone can bring up the statistics, but I know I've read many studies/articles that show the legal profession has a comparatively high rate of depression. It will not get better. I wish I had some nice words to say but that's just reality. Best of luck. It's not too late to drop everything and join the peace corps.
Yes it will. OP might still be depressed next year, but life does get unimaginably easier after 1L ends. 2L is a different (and better) kind of thing entirely.
OP: If you can survive 1L, know that at least the law school part of your life will get more tolerable.

So I am working on a scrapbook of our Grand Canyon and Tombstone road trip and needed a really rustic flower . . . something not flowery, you know? This is what I came up with:
I started by die cutting two medium sized flowers out of canvas with my sizzix machine (flower die #654982). I used some Ranger distress inks (walnut and vintage photo) to "dirty" up the canvas a bit. I then edged it using a brown permanent marker. I used the ink a little heavier on the bottom flower for depth. I then used a cream colored paper flower and glimmer misted it with a yellow/gold glimmer mist that I mixed myself (Tim Holtz has a great tutorial for this). Then I used my Ranger distress inks again (patting it on the non-stick mat and then misting with water so I could use a paint brush to apply). I used walnut, vintage photo and black soot (just the edges with the black soot).
Once I had it the look I wanted it didn't seem to be "enough" so I ran it through the Sizzix machine in a Tim Holtz embossing folder (I used the patchwork folder that came in the "Bingo and Patchwork" set) to give it some texture.
The last item was a plastic button I probably pulled off of an old shirt. I used a little Ranger alcohol ink to give it a little color and then I glued them all together and called it FINISHED!

In the eight years that I was a vegetarian, I often found that my veggie-centric preferences were the afterthought of the party. More often than not, menus offered one item either heavy in carbs or lacking in sustenance, and rarely anything wildly exciting. As a catering chef, I've guiltily and silently watched and assisted as my chef would arrange random side dishes and vegetables on a plate for the couple who RSVP'd vegetarian. Although I now refer to myself as a "reformed vegan" (I'll eat anything), I've learned that a meal can be plant-based, balanced, flavorful, and filling. Here are 10 meatless recipes that are worthy of entrée status and taste great.
Aloo Gobi recipe and photo from Chowhound
This simple vegetable stew with vibrant Mexican flavors takes inspiration from pipíans, Mexico's mole-like sauces, thickened with seeds. Here, a combination of almonds and sesame seeds gives the sauce body and richness. Get our Mexican Vegetable Stew recipe.
2. Mushroom and Lentil Pot Pies with Gouda Biscuit Topping
Pot pie reminds me of my mom and my childhood. This variation on the classic comfort dish pairs sautéed mushrooms with sage, thyme, and clove to create an earthy, meaty flavor. Lentils provide protein, and the warm Gouda buttermilk biscuit topping completes this hearty meal that's perfect for a cool night.

3. Smoky Leek and Hazelnut Tart
This rich tart features creamy cooked leeks baked in a flaky crust with milk and cheese, then topped with hazelnuts.
Photo and recipe from Vegetarian Society
3. Cauliflower Purée and Spinach Lasagna
The cauliflower purée, similar to a creamy béchamel sauce, is layered between no-boil noodles and topped with wilted spinach and cheese. With just a handful of ingredients, this recipe is both easy and filling.

4. Vegan Shepherd's Pie
This meat-free, dairy-free hot dish still has all of the flavor that makes a traditional shepherd's pie so irresistible and indulgent. Onions, carrots, celery, and cloves are sautéed with chickpeas and lentils for an ample base. Then, the casserole is topped with a mash of rich root vegetables and seasoned breadcrumbs for a crisp finish.

5. Quinoa Veggie Burger with Roasted Red Pepper Relish
Quinoa is a grain high in protein, and when cooked, it has a nutty crunch and flavor. This "burger" mashes cannellini beans with baby arugula and quinoa, and is seasoned with the traditional binders of egg and breadcrumbs. Last but not least, it's topped with a bright red pepper and cumin relish.

6. Green Risotto
This recipe takes Italian risotto and lacquers it with a creamy spinach and basil pesto. After topping the risotto with Parmesan cheese and pine nuts, you'll find it is quite easy to be green.
Photo and recipe from EatingWell
Peanut butter is a great source of protein, and when blended with soy sauce, ginger, and garlic, it makes for a rich Asian-inspired sauce to go over noodles. English cucumbers add a cool, refreshing layer to this easy sweet-and-spicy dish.

8. Spicy Seitan Lettuce Wraps
Made from gluten flour, seitan has a chewy texture similar to meat; it's supereasy to cook with, and is incredibly versatile to season for any dish. These lettuce wraps make for a filling lunch or a light dinner, and the avocado radish salad and ginger-pickled cucumbers make the meal memorable.
Photo and recipe from Ripe Cuisine
9. Tofu "Chorizo"
This technique for cooking tofu gives it the texture of ground meat. Seasoned with chili powder, cumin, cinnamon, and garlic, it is a whole new way to view tofu.

Coupon Tip: Dealing with cashiers
I have had a lot of run-ins with cashiers who think they shouldn't accept coupons, some of them are mean, some are confused and some are honestly trying to help out their employer by stopping what they think are unauthorized coupons. There are a couple of ways to handle this. First and foremost, remain calm and try not to get excited or worked up. If this happens to you at particular stores, carry a copy of the coupon policy with you to try and fix these situations easily. Make sure you are familiar with the coupon and the T&Cs printed on it in small print so you can point that out if need be. If the cashier still refuses to help you or take the coupon and you feel you are within the bounds of the coupon policy and the coupon fine print, politely ask to talk to a Manager. This happened to me recently and it reminded me that when you are new to couponing, this can be your worst nightmare and sometimes you assume the cashier knows what they are talking about and back down, without defending your coupon. There is a way to handle it and I highly recommend going up each level as needed to deal with this, until you feel you have a satisfactory response. Several times, I have had to go above the store manager level and have gotten a really great response. Remember to treat everyone politely and be confident in your right to use coupons (as long as you are using them correctly and not trying to trick the system)!

With one final rock-hard right, Lowie Cudillo left little doubt in his coach's mind that he and his twin brother Lester are ready for nationals.
The Red Deer boxers defended their titles on Sunday at the 2014 Alberta Provincial Boxing Championships at the Harvest Centre in Red Deer, completing two years of Alberta domination.
Lowie dropped Dustin Amdo of the Beverly Bronx Boxing Club out of Edmonton, with eight seconds to go in the third round to win the 60 kilogram youth title. He was also later named the top youth boxer at the tournament.
"It's a relief for me (to knock him down) because I know for sure that I'm ahead," said Cudillo.
He took a closely contended first round, dominated the second and then finished a hard-fought third round with a late flurry to take the unanimous decision.
Lester Cudillo also won by unanimous decision, but took a completely different approach against Mitchell Kubrek from the Avenue Boxing Club out of Edmonton to take the 54kg junior title. Cudillo had already beat Kubrek the previous two times they had a fought so knew his competitor well. Instead of forcing the issue, he was more tactical, waiting out Kubrek and looking for his openings.
"My game plan was to keep my distance because he knows how to brawl and he's a good close fighter," said Lester.
Winning is nothing new for either twin, but it is a feeling that doesn't get old.
"It feels good, it feels perfect, I am the champion," said Lester.
They both have already won provincial Golden Gloves and Diamond Gloves titles and both struck gold in the Alberta Winter Games in February in Banff and Canmore, with each winning twice by technical knockout.
Red Deer and District Boxing Club coach Dennis Ejack was impressed by the showing of the twins on Sunday and believes they are ready for a run at nationals later this summer in Ontario. Going to nationals is the first big step in qualifying for Olympic, Commonwealth and Pan-Am Games.
It has been a quick ascent for the Philippine nationals, who have only been boxing for two years. Their dedication to the sport has played a big part in their early success, working with Ejack at the club and their father Leo Cudillo at home in their basement.
They also scour the province looking for top level boxers to train against to raise their level.
"These guys are sparring with national champions and bigger 25-year-old guys and they had to do well and their technique came out through sparring," said Ejack.
The weekend did not go quite as well for the local club's other provincial champ, Cole Farwell, 17.
The Red Deer boxer entered the open category due to having 10 fights on his record already, unfortunately, he drew an older boxer with 60 more fights under his belt. This put Farwell as the big underdog, but he managed to hang and push the bout to a decision, that went in favour of his opponent.
Still, his willingness to step up and take on the challenge told Ejack everything he needed to know about his pupil. The club's motto is AAA — which stands for Anybody, Anywhere, Anytime — and Farwell took that to heart.
"When Cole considered that yesterday, that's why he fought," said Ejack. "We realized with Cole, he can learn much more from a loss than he can a win."
Up next for the club is the Western Canadian Championships, also in Red Deer, from June 7 and 8. The club will have its work cut out to top this past weekend after setting new records for attendance — a packed house on both Saturday and Sunday — and participants with 84 boxers over the two days.
Other results from Sunday include: Fort McMurray's Blake McPhee in an unanimous decision over Peace River's Jordan Ledger in 64 Kg senior; Medicine Hat's Ewan Smith over Cody Gautier at 46 Kg junior in a unanimous decision; Fort McMurray's Sam Brown unanimously over Daithi Duignah of the Panther Boxing Club in Edmonton at 81 Kg senior novice; Slave Lake's Carl Knight unanimously over South Side Edmonton's Tyrell Wilson at 35 Kg junior B; BBB's Tethlmach Chuoi in a split over Bajram Feraj of South Side Legion Boxing Club in Edmonton in 75 Kg Jr. B; Wabaska's Garrity Thompson with a TKO of Ethan Hetke out of Edmonton's Cougar Boxing Club in 64 Kg junior; Jackie Baker out of Calgary's Legacy Boxing Club TKO'd Kayenna Cardinal out of the Kamikaze Punishment Headquarters in Edmonton in 54 Kg Sr. women's; BBB's Kelly Turner won by knockout due to injury over Legacy's Megan Massini at 69 KG Sr. women's; Legacy's Jordan McNaughton unanimously beat Bonnyville's Mark Fieger at 69 Kg Sr. novice; Legacy's Mario Rovanet unanimously beat Avenue's Ming Houang at 75 Kg Sr. novice; Panther's Ben Alvarez unanimously beat Bonnyville's Isiah Hayden in 81 Kg senior open; West Edmonton Knights Boxing Club's Mireille Ares unanimously beat Legion's Shakira Jamerson in 75Kg Sr. Women's novice; and Knight's Austin Jack won a split decision with BBB's Joseph Morrison in 45 Kg Jr. A.
