There is a Light That Never Dies
There could hardly be a light as bright as that of Pam Runnells. She was a woman radiant with life-force. Everything about her gleamed! Her eyes, her heart, her spirit…illuminated everything and everyone around her! Those in her sphere were all like moths to the flame…drawn to the succulent radiance of her unique spirit. I know I was! I met Pam on a dance floor in Lufkin, TX, back in 1995. She and Mechelle Sieg teamed up to bring Nia to our small town community. They were pioneers! YES! Pioneers of Joy, pleasure, and community. These were the early days of Nia…the days of "Medicine Woman" and "Leap of Faith"…and these two soul mates were on a mission to turn folks ON to fully living in, sensing, and loving their bodies. It was MAGIC that was created…in our own community…and in others as we caravanned near and far to experience more Nia with more people and communities!
What I remember most of Pam is her voracity for life, devouring the richness of each moment, relishing in the pleasures of being in and loving her body and life. She loved to move…she was a magnet for community…she loved deeply…and she could throw a party like no other! There was a book released in the mid-nineties, by Sark, called, "The Succulent Wild Woman"…and I'd say it is the perfect metaphor for describing Pam. She truly IS the epitome of "Succulent Wild Woman"…the mother of soaking in and relishing in the juice of life and living.
A poem, by Mary Ann Radmacher, shared at Pam's Living Memorial Service, as a beautiful reflection of her and her life:
She danced.
She sang.
She took. She gave.
She loved.
She created.
She dissented.
She enlivened.
She saw. She grew.
She sweated. She changed.
She learned. She laughed.
She shed her skin.
She bled on the pages of her days.
She walked through walls.
She lived with intention.
There have been so many of us who have been touched by Pam's 'succulent' magic! From her family and friends, to us Nians, who have trained with her, danced in sacred spaces throughout Texas, Arkansas, Portland, OR, and many spaces in between. Her light lives on through us…the people lucky enough to have encountered her enigmatic brilliance…people like Mechelle Sieg, Holly Curtis, Anita Stark, Randy Miller, Lori Donahoe, and many, many more! Her legacy lives on in me. She is wrapped in my Nia story that I have the pleasure of telling every time I present the Nia White Belt Training. I am proud to be in her heritage and comforted to know that her spirit is always accessible through every 'telling'…and in some way, I get to share a little bit of that magic from my time with Pam in Lufkin, with my trainees…the light and the life lives on.
Friends who would like to honor Pam through donations, may submit donations in her name to Potter's House, 2703 N Drake St, Fayetteville, AR 72703 or The Breast Center, 55 W Sunbridge Dr, Fayetteville, AR 72703.

Matteo Delpodio's season literally took off at last week's Credit Suisse, where he was given the chance to indulge the other passion in his life: flying.
The aviation fanatic was taken to a hang gliding school in Interlaken, Switzerland, to film a flying feature for the Challenge Series, the magazine show on Sky Sports dedicated to the Challenge Tour.
Once there, the Italian was given a brief safety lesson before being kitted out for his maiden voyage on a hang glider. After being strapped to his instructor, the pair took a running jump off the nearest cliff, and took to the skies.
Delpodio said: "Aviation is one of my biggest passions, so I'm really interest in anything that flies. It was a fantastic experience, and I can't wait to do it again. I wasn't expecting to run off a cliff, but that's exactly what we did – it was like a dream. We were maybe 30 or 40 metres from the edge, and my instructor just told me to start running and don't stop – so that's what I did!
"We were approximately 1,000 metres above sea level, and it took us about 15 minutes to get to the bottom. If it's sunny you can use the thermals to fly, which means you can stay in the air for longer, but unfortunately it was a bit cloudy when we went up, which was a shame because I wanted to stay up there for longer. But we managed to do some acrobatic tricks for the camera, so that was a lot of fun.
"The landing was also a lot of fun, because you have to get in position like superman. The instructor flew us in just over the top of some high grass, and I could feel it touching my feet. Then he took us down in the field, using the wheels to land and the friction between the ground and our legs to slow us down.
"It was a bit more exciting than playing golf, that's for sure! A round of golf lasts for about five hours whereas this is over in 15 minutes, so it's a bit difficult to compare the two. Also because golf is our careers, sometimes we don't enjoy it as much as a hobby. But if I was a hang gliding instructor and golf was my hobby, maybe I might get more excited about a round of golf than a flight!"
Delpodio's long-standing passion for all things aeronautical led him, as an 18 year old, to seriously consider joining a military academy back home in Italy, before golf won the battle as the safer, and potentially more lucrative, career.
But once he has hung up his clubs, Delpodio is determined to gain his pilot's licence and take to the skies on a more regular basis.
He said: "I've been interested in flying since the age of around 14. I haven't taken lessons to get my licence because it's very expensive – and because it takes up a lot of time which I have to dedicate to golf. Because it's such a passion, I want to do it properly or not at all. So when I've finished with golf, I'm definitely going to get my licence. Maybe I will earn enough money from golf to be able to buy my own plane!"
If he is to fulfil his lofty ambitions, Delpodio will have to make some improvements after struggling to make the step up to the Challenge Tour from the satellite Alps Tour, where he won three times last year en route to topping the Order of Merit.
Delpodio currently sits in 98th place in the Challenge Tour Rankings, but after comfortably making the cut in his last three events – with a tie for 14th place at the Hydro Scottish Challenge his best finish – the Italian's form is undoubtedly on an upward trajectory.
He said: "It's been a tough season so far. I didn't get off to the best of starts, but I feel like my game is slowly coming together now and my results are getting more consistent. I probably expected more from myself this season, after winning the Alps Tour Order of Merit last year. But it's a big step up to the Challenge Tour, so if I can just keep my card for next season I'll be quite happy, and even happier if I can get my main Tour card through the Qualifying School.
"But you never know what can happen on the Challenge Tour. You only need a second place in one of the bigger events – and suddenly you're up challenging for the top 20. But it's better to keep your results consistent and keep improving week on week, because if you win one week but then miss the next three cuts, you're probably going to struggle even if you get onto the main Tour. So my aim is to keep finishing higher and higher, and hopefully I can reach the top soon."

Ever since up-and-coming actress Megan Draper (Jessica Pare) donned the same T-shirt that Sharon Tate wore in a 1967 photo shoot, "Mad Men" conspiracy theorists have been writing the character's obituary, believing she'll meet a tragic end along the same lines as the fate that befell the '60s sex symbol. The logic (and we use the word loosely) is that the show hasn't skimped on showing the social upheaval prevalent in 1968 New York, what with all the wailing police sirens, the riots and Peggy stabbing (albeit accidentally) her then boyfriend Abe with a makeshift bayonet.
So when The Envelope hosted a round table with "Mad Men" creator Matthew Weiner and the show's lead actresses the other day for a conversation, we couldn't help but inquire about the general health of everyone's characters going forward.
"I don't want to spoil anything for people, but after Lane ..." Weiner began, referring to the late, great Lane Pryce, who was the ad agency's financial officer until he hanged himself at the end of last season.
PHOTOS: The women of 'Mad Men'
"They're barking up the wrong tree," Elisabeth Moss, who plays Peggy, added.
Weiner: "It's just not part of the show. No one's going to die."
At this point, Pare exhaled loudly and sang out: "Thank God!"
"This season," Weiner interjected, laughing. "I didn't say never!"
So what was with the T-shirt? And why was young Sally Draper, Megan's stepdaughter, seen reading "Rosemary's Baby," Ira Levin's bestselling horror novel that Roman Polanski, Tate's husband, adapted for film? (That is a lot of hints," Moss said, eyeing Weiner.)
"Yes, Sharon Tate wore that T-shirt, but that was just my costume designer Janie Bryant and I solving an argument," Weiner said. "Women's T-shirts had not come into fashion. I always wanted Megan in a Disneyland T-shirt and Janie kept saying, 'They're not around yet.' So I said, 'There's got to be a women's T-shirt,' and Janie brought [the photo of Tate] in and asked, 'Is this OK?' And I said, 'Yes. I want that exact T-shirt.' Little did I know ..."
As for "Rosemary's Baby," the book and movie were huge in 1968. In fact, we may not have seen the last of it this season. To learn more, you'll just have to watch the season's final two episodes. We got to the bottom of the whole Megan murder mystery. We can't do everything.

A simple and sweet story of love lost and found, Delicacy has all the charm you'd expect from a French romantic comedy staring Audrey Tautou.
Based on the novel by David Foenkinos, who also co-directed with his brother Stephane, it's a gentle story with a kooky sense of humour, based on the observation that you can't always control who you fall in love with.
Tautou is the perfect French woman; beautiful, petite and smart, it's easy to see why all the men in this film swoon over her. Francois (Pio Marmai), her equally beautiful husband, is the first, but is quickly dispatched in a tragic accident - there's no room for perfect Parisian couples here.
Drowning in her grief, Natalie retreats from the world, pouring all her energy into her job. Her smitten boss (Bruno Todeschini) tries hard to seduce her, but she rejects his advances. Then, in the film's one and only unpredictable act, a gangly, plain, Swedish giant with a lovely sense of humour and a heart of gold catches her eye. Much to the amazement of their colleagues and friends the two strike up a friendship, and Natalie gradually begins to live her life again.
Tautou is adorable, alluring and a touch dreamy, but it's Francois Damiens as Markus the Swede who makes this comedy interesting. It's an unlikely romance, and Damiens does a lovely and understated job of convincing both Natalie and us that Markus isn't out of her league.
Though Delicacy has some moments of great sadness and genuine sweetness, it offers few surprises. It delivers the familiar whimsical tone of French romantic comedy and the considerable charm of its leading lady. For many of us that will be just enough.
Stars: 3/5
Cast: Audrey Tautou, Francois Damiens
Director: David and Stephane Foenkinos
Running time: 110 mins
Rating: M (Contains offensive language)
Verdict: A light, sweet French rom-com

A group of students at Carroll High School in Ozark have noticed a slimy substance in their tea.
At first they thought it was just preservatives, but when they emptied the bottle, they realized the substance was too thick and could be a type of mold.
This goo is what students at Carroll High School see popping up in their tea bottles.
"Oh my God, dude, ew, ya we need to show somebody. This is going to the Smithsonian somebody's going to drink this. I almost drank this, somebody has drank this before, you and I had this before. If this in everybody's think about people who don't look in their teas" Carroll High Students said as they looked at their tea,
The students, who want to remain anonymous, say since the beginning of May, they continued to see the substance in the tea. They say as the month went on, it got thicker.
Last week, the students showed the drink to school officials. They say the teacher they originally reported it to seemed uninterested and said "I don't want to see it".
A CHS student sent us this statement of what happened next:
"Luckily another teacher that overheard came to our table when lunch was over and told us to tell the teacher who is in charge of the lunch, we went into the lunchroom and asked the first lunch lady we saw where she is. She said she isn't in today. She asked what we need so we told her in a respectful way that the teas need to be looked at. We showed her the dark colored spot stuck to the inside of the bottle which she replied 'that's gross; I'll tell the truck driver'. However they were still available to buy the next day. "
The students said the teacher believed it was mold in the bottles, and seemed concerned, so they thought the problem would be solved.
The next day, the students bought another bottle of tea and discovered the Jello-like substance was still there.
We called the principal of Carroll High School Patrick Brannan.
He says he was never informed of a problem with the teas, and said he would be taking steps Monday to fix the issue.
We spoke with the student at lunch time.
He confirmed school officials are no longer allowing the tea to be sold.

Douglas high school graduate Shawn Estes was cut by the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday. It's a move that may spell the end of his 12-year career.
Estes was a non-roster invitee to the Dodgers Spring Training camp. He was one of a handful of pitchers in competition for the fifth starter spot in the Dodgers' rotation.
He had an unremarkable spring, finishing with a 8.44 ERA in five exhibition games. He allowed 19 hits in 10 2/3 innings pitched, surrendering a .380 opponents batting average.
Estes was offered a spot to pitch for the Dodgers' AAA team in Albuquerque, but he's considering his options.
He announced at the beginning of camp that he would retire if he did not make the major league team. But he's softened that stance a bit. Even at 36 years old, he says that his arm is feeling better than it has in years. He's hoping to catch on with another major league team.
Estes is a 12-year MLB veteran who won 15 games as recently as 2004 with the Rockies. He also won a career-high 19 games with the San Francisco Giants back in 1997. He's racked up a 101-93 major league record, with 1210 career strikeouts and a 4.71 career ERA.
Estes was a 1991 graduate of Douglas high school in Minden, Nevada. He hurled four no-hitters at the high school level and earned Nevada High School Player of the Year honors as a senior.

I never met Joe Dressner, but I knew a lot of the wines that he imported into the U.S. They were fresh, different, sometimes quirky, but always engaging. These are wines that demand your attention.
A year ago this week, I was in the Loire Valley visiting producers as harvest was in full swing. On the morning of September 17, 2011, I was on my way to meet with one of Dressner's producers, François Cazin in Cour-Cheverny, but decided to take a detour to stop by Jean-Marie and Thierry Puzelat's Clos de Tue Boef (another member of the Dressner portfolio). In front of the small, unadorned winery, there was an old 1950s/60s blue Ford Tractor with one of its headlights dangling from the socket. I whipped out my camera to take a few pictures. Out walked Jean-Marie Puzelat – a round, jolly man wearing overalls. He was laughing, amused that I wanted to take pictures of his "crappy tractor" (cleanest translation I could muster for what he actually said). We chatted, and he apologized for not being able to do a formal tasting, but asked if I wanted to taste through a few wines in tank. I happily accepted the invitation.

Knowledge Base
Online fundraising generally refers to using the Internet to raise money for your organization. Web sites, blogs, email marketing, search engine optimization, Facebook, tweets, etc. are just some ways to do this.
Video Using Social Media for Development: Flash in the Pan or Wave of the Future? »
If you do plan to raise funds online, you need to know about the Charleston Principles, which are non-binding guidelines that the National Association of State Charity Officials created to help states develop their own regulations for online fundraising. The Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) summarizes them as follows:
Organizations located outside of a particular state must register if they use their website to specifically target people in that state, or receive contributions from the state on a repeated and ongoing basis or a substantial basis through its website. The Principles don't specifically define "ongoing" or "substantial" -- that's left up to each individual state. Organizations should note that email solicitations automatically trigger registration requirements, just as a letter or fax would. What happens next with the Charleston Principles is currently unclear. States have not shown any special urgency to address this issue, but may begin to in the next couple of years.
The AFP also created Internet Transaction Guidelines to provide basic guidance for members and others who might use the services of an online or similar service provider.

Bryan Colangelo interview during Raptors/Clippers broadcast transcript
Transcript: Colangelo talks struggling Raptors
December 9, 2012
president and general manager Bryan Colangelo joined Jack Armstrong and Matt Devlin during the first quarter of the broadcast of the
game against the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday afternoon. After a 32-point blowout loss to the Utah Jazz on Friday night and the team sitting at 4-16 coming into the contest against the Clippers, Colangelo talked disappointments, trade rumours and what he thinks the team's biggest issues are. Hint: He doesn't think the issue is a lack of talent.
Here's some of what Colangelo had to say
Bryan Colangelo: Well obviously we're very disappointed and the performance has been unacceptable. I think yesterday, just talking to some media members; we wanted to make sure people knew where our thoughts were. I do not believe that it's a talent issue right now; I do believe that it's about a team coming together. We're very young, we've had some injury issues, we've got the schedule, but we're not making excuses, we know there are some things that are broken and need to be fixed right now, but again, it's a lack of focus and a lack of attention to detail, I think more than anything right now.
Question: Defensively, what's been the issue right now?
Bryan Colangelo: There's been some slippage, clearly. One of the things you've got to point to obviously is you've got a 20-year-old starting centre that's come in and he's learning the nuances of what we're doing from a system standpoint, but also learning the game at the same time. It's been difficult to integrate some new faces, but there has been, again, a lack of focus with respect to the defensive progress that we made last year.
Question: DeMar DeRozan, he mentioned that the team meeting was good, he was very positive about that talked about defence.
Bryan Colangelo: There's no doubt that the defence is what created a lot of our forward progress last year and it will create opportunities for us to get out and run offensively which is something we needed to do. But we're not moving the ball that much on offence; we're not running as much as we should. We do at times, and we look good and we score easy baskets. Unfortunately again, staying in that system, sometimes when a team scores against you, you drop your shoulders and you stop your forward progress. There's a lot of things that we need to be working on but it does begin with defence. But we've really got to improve on both sides of the ball right now.
Question: Andrea Bargnani, how does he get his consistency back?
Bryan Colangelo: It was an immediate connection with coach Casey last year, it looked like he was putting up all-star numbers obviously for the first 15-18 games. He has not gotten back to that level. It looked that way early in preseason that he was coming back ready to become and perform at that level. But unfortunately we have not seen that consistency. I do think though it's related to some of what's happening with the rest of the team right now. I don't think anyone is performing at all levels. Kyle started out great this year, got hurt, has now had to play himself back into condition. DeMar has shaken off the early pressures of the contract signing and he's been more or less very good, but there's been some days where he's been off. We've had flighty performances from almost everybody. Again, it's about finding consistency, finding the focus, getting back that attention to detail.
Question: Trade rumors swirling all around. You hear names, Andrea Bargnani, Jose
with respect to trade rumors--
Bryan Colangelo: That's a moving screen.
Bryan Colangelo: You know when a team struggles like we have people start to focus on teams as potentially opportunistic and I would say to you that we're not sitting back either. We were talking to a lot of teams, what we always do, and it's a means of pursing avenues to improve your basketball team so if a deal comes along that makes sense, that is right and fits within the plan of this building process that we've been going through, we'll certainly take a look at it. If it can accelerate that process and if it fits then we'll look to address something. But nothing specific about any player right now. There's been a lot of speculation, a lot of rumors. Again, we're continuing to look at opportunities.
Question: What would you say your arena of greatest need would be right now?
Bryan Colangelo: Focus. Again, I'm not going to say it's a talent issue. I will argue that point right now. I think that we've made strides in this building process. We've brought some good pieces in. I think if there is a point of weakness, it's youth and inexperience right now and those are two things that are probably a big part of us losing the close games, not knowing how to finish those games. It was mind-numbing to be honest with you, how early in the season a couple of these games slipped through our fingers. And you get one or two of those back, we're not talking about this as much right now, but having said that, that inexperience is probably the issue.
Question: Two really talented youngsters on your team in Jonas Valanciunas and Terrence Ross, they both have a chance to be really nice players. Talk about how blending them in and at the same time getting them experience every night
Bryan Colangelo: Once again, we've been going through this process, we've been trying to make good long-term strategic decisions. I will fault the coaching staff for one thing: We probably won too many games last year in terms of part of this process. It's not that we were trying to lose, we were trying to establish a culture and that was a success. But at the same time, the draft process probably played itself out differently. We love Terrence Ross, we think he's a great talent and a number of the people I've talked to around the league think he's a great talent to have. But he hasn't had a lot of playing time early. I would have hoped he played more in the preseason to get more of that acclimation time in if you will. But that's happening now, he's been the recipient of some extra minutes because of some injuries. That's a good thing that will help us in the long run. Jonas is only 20 years old and really represents the future of this basketball team. I couldn't be more thrilled with that decision, now almost a year and a half ago.
Question: What has been the key for Ed Davis taking the next step?
Bryan Colangelo: You know, we talked a lot about him getting off to a slow start because he didn't have the kind of development early that he needed early due to an injury and then also due to the lockout, but he had a great summer. And I think that summer of work, that body of work is helping him right now. But it really with him comes down to a focus on his effort level night in and night out. When he brings it and he's active he's very effective, but there's other times where he tends to float from the game. And that's something that happens with young players. He's only 23-years-old, he's part of that young core we always talk about, but he's got a great nose for the ball, he's got good instincts. And again once he applies himself on a nightly basis with that effort, he's going to be a very solid player in this league.
Question: What are some of the things that will lead to focus/defence improvement?
Bryan Colangelo: It's a shame that we missed so many opportunities early, but those were psychological blows to a young team and it takes time to recover from that. Again, building experience and building momentum in this league are things that happen rather quickly. We had a team in Phoenix that started 0-13. We did make a trade mid-season for Jason Kidd but he [Kidd] got hurt quickly, missed about two to three more weeks and at the end of the day we end up winning 40 games to go 40-42 overall and make the playoffs. I'm not saying that's going to happen here, but momentum is a funny thing in this business and I do think that we need to work on some of the things, again I think we've got a lot of young players, I think we've got a team that likes each other, but right now they're not playing harmoniously. They're not playing like they like each other and I think that's the thing that right now is holding us back.
Question: Utah serve as an opportunity to get this thing turned around?
Bryan Colangelo: Sometimes it is a game that changes things. Sometimes it's an injury. I actually thought that the Mickael Pietrus piece being added was an opportunity to shake up the locker room a little bit and he's going to help us. Unfortunately he's not playing today because of an injury. I thought again, that could be the kind of thing that implements change. But you can't script this stuff. You got to play.

Forfar too good for Pars
Two second-half goal in 15 minutes gave Forfar a 2-0 win over Dunfermline.
Dunfermline's Gozie Ugwu missed a good chance from close-range inside 10 minutes and Forfar's Chris Templeman struck from six-yards, forcing goalkeeper Ryan Scully into pulling off a fine save.
The Loons took the lead shortly before the hour-mark through Dale Hilson, who found space in the box, sending a tidy finish across goal and past Scully.
Forfar doubled their lead on 73 minutes after Darren Dods headed home James Dale's free-kick.
Faissal El Bakhtaoui went close to pulling one back for the visitors twice in two minutes. Strikes inside the box saw goalkeeper Rab Douglas brilliantly tip the ball past the post before holding onto the next.
The Pars' Michael Moffat hit the post three minutes from time and the Sky Blues continued to hold on for a clean sheet and their first win of the season after drawing at Stranraer on the opening day.

I couldn't find this in the files, but it seems to be somewhat common.
If you apply the logic even handily, any football club in debt is utilising money it doesn't have.
So, if there are rules, how about having them written down somewhere and applying them even-handily, with equal emphasis applied to their correct application by those weilding the power, as to correct adherance by the rest of us mere mortals.
[they] were double-handily polishing off the tray of soft-shelled crabs
Klaxons are known to bring a party atmosphere to their live appearances and have triple-handily re-popularized the slacker look
Her mother also told me her daughter was entirely left handed, to the point she'd alternate her knife and fork left handily when eating.
(That one is interesting, with "left handed" so close in the context. The next is a rather different meaning.)
I am not going to make a big issue of that, I understand what he meant, we all say things a little left-handily.
Some examples of right handily are probably this error, but I don't have time to sift through the legit examples to find them. Similarly for other possibilities as well. Back handily, side handily, black handily, … I wonder if anyone thinks of it as (single) handle-ly?
*If the human mind were simple enough for us to understand,
we would be too simple-minded to understand it* .

He should be wary, or at least less unawary. BTW, how do you pronounce "unabomber"?

At least take especial care before you aim your shafts at Calvinism, that you know what Calvinism is, and what it is not, that in the mass of doctrine which it is of late become the fashion to abuse under the name of Calvinism, you can distinguish with certainty between that part of it which is nothing better than Calvinism and that which belongs to our common Christianity, and the general faith of the reformed Churches, lest when you mean to fall foul of Calvinism, you should uniwarily attack something more sacred and of a higher origin.

If you spot David and Mady Rohn riding their bicycles down Captiva Drive, chances are they're on duty.
David is a retired environmental reporter, editorial-writer and columnist for an Indianapolis newspaper, but he still does some online journalism teaching for the Indiana University School of Journalism.
Mady has a PhD in clinical social work and was in private practice for many years, in addition to teaching at Indiana University.
Article Photos
Captiva residents David and Mady Rohn are pictured here with one of the many objects they've harvested from Captiva's coastal waters during their kayak trips, a weathered bar stool.
The couple have been coming to Captiva for over 30 years and have made it their part time home -the rest of their time spent in Vancouver, Canada- for the past 12 years.
While most islanders love to do their part in keeping Captiva beautiful, whether by donating to or volunteering for island conservation and protection organizations, the Rohns take their love for Captiva one step further.
If you see them on their bicycles, they're probably not going to the grocery store, as the plastic bags attached to their handlebars might suggest.
"When we go to Publix or Bailey's or Jerry's we save the grocery bags and the plastic ones are great because they have handles that fit right on the bike," said Mady.
"Almost every day we go out to the north end here at South Seas and about three or four times a week we go out on Captiva Drive, mainly just to ride our bikes, and along the way we pick up whatever trash we find," David explained.
"We like to bicycle but Captiva Drive has always been impossible," said David, adding that he was glad to see construction on the new safety shoulder begin early last year.
The Rohns, who spend part of the year in Vancouver, were looking forward to coming back to Captiva last October and try out the newly finished safety shoulder, only to find, much to their dismay, the path was overgrown with plants and covered in sand, glass and trash.
"It was unusable. My wife accuses me of being a treehugger, but I really believe in bike paths, and Captiva has been the most bicycle-unfriendly place but this was a big improvement, yet it was unusable.
David and Mady postulate that most of the trash they pick up comes from construction sites or is blown away from resident trash cans, though they both agree that shattered beer bottles pose the biggest threat.
On one occasion, David strapped a broomstick to his bicycle to take care of sand that had blown over the path and more importantly, to sweep up dangerous broken glass.
"I've had two flats, one down on Sanibel and one here. People ride and they don't see the glass until they're on it and they have a flat tire," said David.
But the Rohns are not simply terrestrial environmentalists.
They spend a lot of time kayaking and have some rather wild stories about the items they've plucked out of the mangroves.
Throughout the course of their sea-faring adventures, Mady and David have removed fishing line and hooks, plastic chairs covered in barnacles, lifejackets and even a bar stool.
But their most impressive find was a large three-seater porch swing that they suspects was detached and blew away during Hurricane Charley.
David pulled the porch swing, still fairly intact, out of the water and balanced it on the front of the kayak so they could move it to the side of the road for South Seas to depose of.
"It was unreal to be kayaking with that monstrous thing balanced on the front of the kayak," Mady said.
But if that sounds over the top, David and Mady say that during their biking excursions, they can collect up to four completely full bags of trash in just one trip.
David said that in the stretch between their home at South Seas and 'Tween Waters Inn, they collect one full grocery bag of trash. By the time they reach Blind Pass, they fill another bag.
On their way back to 'Tween Waters they fill one more bag and by the time they reach home again, they've filled a fourth bag.
"It really depends. Some days we don't get much," Mady said, noting that if she and David continue to bike to the North End of South Seas, they fill at least another two bags.
"If we make four trips a week times the five months we live here, then you're talking around 400 bags of trash, not to mention all the stuff we get in the kayak," David said.
David said that he and Mady feel privileged to live on such a beautiful island, and their regular trash duty is a way for them to give back to the place they love so much.
"It's important to us," said Mady
"A lot of people on this island do different things. There are people involved in the CCA or they're on the panel or they contribute to BIG ARTS or C.R.O.W. I guess this is just the thing we do," David said.

Editor's note: This is an update to an earlier Reporter-Herald story.
FORT COLLINS -- An executive from a developer that recently chose Loveland for a major project and another whose company is considering Fort Collins for its new headquarters talked Wednesday about what makes Northern Colorado special.
The two were among the speakers at the annual meeting of the Northern Colorado Economic Development Corp., which works to attract and strengthen businesses in Larimer County. The event drew 450 business and government leaders to the Fort Collins Hilton.
Bill Murphree, vice president of development for Cumberland & Western Resources, explained how his Kentucky-based company made its decision to buy and develop the former Agilent Technologies campus in Loveland into the Rocky Mountain Center for Innovation and Technology.
It all came down to relationships, Murphree said.
Executives at the company, which has extensive property holdings across the country, saw a landscape full of investment opportunities after the 2008 real estate collapse, he said.
They set some priorities and came up with five areas of the country on which to focus. One of the factors was, "Is this an area we'd enjoy visiting, or living there?"
Murphree said the company tried to anticipate trends, looking for areas with emerging economic activity, rather than "former great places."
Colorado's Front Range made the short list.
The company was aware that the city of Loveland was looking for a developer of the Agilent property, so when a Cumberland & Western official was traveling in Wyoming, he called Murphree and offered to swing down to Loveland to take a look at the site.
Murphree said he called Loveland economic development director Betsey Hale on a Saturday and asked if she could arrange a spur-of-the-moment visit.
"She immediately said, 'Sure, I'd be glad to meet your people there,'" he said, and even picked them up at the airport.
"She told such a compelling story of Loveland and the Front Range," he said, "that we were about half sold after that first visit."
He said company officials' positive impression of Loveland was strengthened as they started working through the city processes. "It was just an incredibly welcoming, supportive environment," he said.
"Good relationships make business tremendously easier to accomplish," Murphree said. "That becomes, by far, the most important criterion that we consider when making a selection."
Rocky Scott, director of corporate affairs at Woodward, gave an overview of the industrial controls manufacturer's position in the global economy.
The company employs 1,300 people at its Fort Collins and Loveland facilities and 7,000 worldwide and is projecting annual revenue growth of 10 percent over the next 20 years, Scott said.
Woodward, which relocated its headquarters from Illinois to its existing Fort Collins facility in 2005, now is looking for a place to build a new headquarters.
It has narrowed its search from 20 sites in four states to one -- the Link-N-Greens golf course at Lemay Avenue and Mulberry Street southeast of downtown Fort Collins.
Two major factors the company is researching are the affordability of building and operating its new facility and the quality of life in Fort Collins.
Factors such as the presence of Colorado State University, the abundance of craft breweries and the new Fort Collins Museum of Discovery all play a role in attracting and retaining quality employees, Scott said.
NCEDC CEO Walt Elish, finishing his first year in the position, also spoke at the event, as did Tom Clark, CEO of the Metro Denver Economic Development Corp., whose keynote address emphasized Colorado's positive economic standing and how it has arrived there.
The organization awarded its Regional Economic Development Excellence Award to Steve Stiesmeyer, longtime general manager of the Hewlett-Packard facility in Fort Collins who retired from the company at the end of August.

Here is a test concerning NVIDIA SLI on Linux (in this case, OpenSUSE 10.0 OSS). "With our previous article that we published moments ago, demonstrating the performance of the GeForce 7800GTX 256MB under Linux with the 1.0-8174 Rel80 drivers that were finally released today, there's no disputing that the Windows XP NVIDIA ForceWare users can generally see a significantly higher frame-rate with the same hardware components, in addition to other features that aren't yet supported by the proprietary NVIDIA Linux drivers. However, how do NVIDIA's initial Rel80 Linux drivers (1.0-8174) fair in the world of Scalable Link Interface?"

Cluttons in Bahrain hotel lease deal
Manama, September 27, 2013
Property expert Cluttons said it has won a contract to accommodate the staff of Domain, a new five-star luxury hotel in Bahrain, which is part of the Chic & Unique Hotels Group.
The hotel had recently launched the ground breaking 'hotel-club concept' in the Diplomatic Area, with views of the island's coastal landscape, reported the Gulf Daily News, our sister publication.
Cluttons leased all units in the brand new Silver Tower in Juffair to Domain Hotel, to accommodate 180 new employees.
The building consists of 16 one-bedroom flats and 30 two-bedroom fully furnished flats, with access to a pool and a gym.
"We feel strongly that this is a great indication of an upturn in Bahrain's economy," Cluttons Bahrain country head Harry Goodson-Wickes said.
"The opening of a luxury hotel has not only encouraged people to come here for work, but also shows a confidence that tourism is on the increase again," he stated.
Silver Tower was chosen by the Domain's managing director Patrick De Groot and his team because it is a modern building that reflects the boutique hotel concept that they are creating.
Domain's slogan and ethos is "Stay, Work, Play," so it was important that the staff had clean and well-equipped accommodation, which was in close proximity to work.
De Groot praised Cluttons' senior leasing and sales executives Francine Williamson and Jennifer Perry for the speed with which they conducted their search.
With the professional assistance of the Cluttons team, the commercial negotiation, the legal paperwork and the subsequent handshake only took about two weeks," he said.-TradeArabia News Service

As one of the last eleven people in the country with a job I look forward to buying one!
As one of the last eleven people in the country with a job I look forward to buying one!
They'll be built in the bay area [dailyfinance.com], employing thousands of people. This announcement is what jobs recovery is all about.
"flagging economy"
"more affordable"
"sell for $49,900"
one of these things is not like the others... ?
You left off labor costs in California in general and the Bay Area in particular.
Wait for the announcement that they're moving production somewhere else with lower labor costs.
>>>Expect to take a pay cut, and a lifestyle cut.
I already cut cable TV during the last recession (2000) and my cellphone from $30 downto the $5 plan. There's not much left to cut, unless I convert my home from 2 stories to 1 story (to cut heating cost). Or demolish it completely and build a PassivHaus (virtually no heating needed).
>>>including Tesla.
Well, they now have Toyota's money. I hope this partnership is as profitable as the Toyota-Ford Hybrid partnership turned out to be, an
That won't reduce the cost. When Toyota sold Rav4 EVs, which were made in a foreign country with cheap labor, the thing still cost $45000 to purchase..... about double the cost of the gasoline version. The high cost comes from the battery which is 4x larger than the one in a hybrid, and of course 4x as much money.
The Rav4 EV was also costly to maintain. The battery required replacement every 100,000 miles - that's a cost equal to replacing an engine in a normal car, but about 3 times more frequently.
You missed the part where "more affordable" is a relative measure, and they're comparing it to their roadster with a 6-figure price tag.
no no, I understand this point, but in 49 states of this country, people are still much more likely to say "screw it, i'll buy a comparable regular car for $20,00 - $30,000 less"
I suppose it's ironic that they're basing the plant in the one state that people WILL buy with idealism instead of sense.

Yes, those fall into two categories...
(1) The people who dont have the extra $20K-$30K
(2) The people who DO have the extra money, but cant do math (or dont care about saving money in the long run)
This is an excellent start. For a couple reasons:
One, other car companies will soon no longer be able to play the (erroneous) "electric cars cant get decent mileage - buy ours that only gets 50-120 miles on a charge and takes all night to recharge"
And two, as more get produced, (ie: getting towards mass pro
While "Big Government" is willing to either give away (like for the EV1 projects) or loan (recent bailout) millions or billions of dollars to the big automakers, they seemed to have no real interest in helping Tesla...
What? You think the $465 million [wired.com] government loan Tesla got doesn't count as help?
Not really. AC Propulsion's electric sedans still sell for a high pricepoint, even though they are about 10 years old.
Of course it's always possible the idea will flop, and Tesla dealers will sell new cars for dirt cheap. I was able to get my Honda Insight for only $12,000 since the dealer had 20 of them collecting dust in his garage. The demand simply wasn't there in 2001.
I suspect that this tradeoff will be a lot more attractive in areas of the world where gasoline/petrol is $7 ($us) a gallon, but here where the price is about 1/3 to 1/2 of that, I'm guessing that the loss of freedom and spontanity is not worth meager price savings.
a lot of people say that "once the US catches up with the rest of the world in gas prices, the demand for hybrid, synthetic (e85), and electric vehicles will shoot up". This is true, the demand will shoot up... but not the means to afford them. g
Yes people don't seem to understand how BIG the U.S. is. If I order from amazon.com, it has to travel 2000 miles from California, and there's not much in-between. By car it's a 3 day journey. First the steam engine and now gasoline/diesel-fueled vehicles are what keeps this country connected.
If the cost doubles, it will have a major impact on our goods, our food, and our business travel. The EU has an advantage, as most of their goods can be shipped via water (for example from Poland to Spain) which i

I suspect that the average cost of a gallon of gas here in the US over the next 10 years (the lifetime of a car) will be more like $5/gallon. That would be $25,000 of gasoline for a car that gets 30 mpg and last 150,000 miles.

I disagree. It will also be attractive to those who have decent length commutes. First, the Teslas (fully outfitted) can go 300 miles a charge. That is a lack of spontaneity for very very few people (those who do cross country road trips or very long road trips - it's 5 hours of driving without stopping). Secondly (on the gas price bit), per Scientific American, it costs about 75 cents per gallon equivalent of gas. Even at $3 a gallon in the US, that's a massive savings. I used to drive 40,000 miles a year
I think you're the one missing something.
An $80,000 nissan GT-R is an absolute bargain of a steal -compared- to $300,000 lamborghinis and ferraris... but only when compared to those cars. Your average consumer, especially the ones who are looking for a "more affordable" car in a "flagging economy" are going to laugh at the $80,000 price tag and pick up something else.
It's the same deal with a $50,000 tesla toyota. Even if it's a bargain compared to a $100,000 tesla, it is NOT a bargain compared to even the
Answering the "is-a-new-tesla-greener-than-an-existing-hummer?" in the header:
Yes, collectively in the long term. Every new electric car put on the road will contribute via networking effects to the development of an infrastructure to support electrics, and every gas-burning car taken off the road will contribute to the dismantling of the infrastructure that drills (and spills) for oil underwater, ships (and slicks) it in tankers around the world, etc. A new car is only manufactured once; it will continue to interact as a part of our environment for years (possibly decades) to come.
Answering the "is-a-new-tesla-greener-than-an-existing-hummer?" in the header: Yes...
Can anyone think of a vehicle that is NOT greener than an existing hummer?
Apparently even a 100 year old Model T has a better mpg rating [wanttoknow.info] and they seem to last forever.
Yes but...
Didn't I read somewhere that 75% of a car's lifetime energy consumption is during manufacture? So wouldn't it make more sense to rehabilitate existing autos? (And in a perverse way hasn't Cuba been doing that for decades?)
And TopGear looked into a Prius Vs. a BMW M3 and found:
for a given speed (highway) the M3 had better milage.
The M3 cost less (energy) to manufacture.
The M3 batteries were greener to manufacture.
The Prius NiMh batteries were:
* Mined in Canada at a dirty mine
* ore was shipped to China to be smelted
* raw metal was shipped to Europe to be "foamed"
* Foamed nickel plates were shipped to Japan to be built into batteries
* Batteries were shipped to the US for assembly into
Penn and Teller taught me that the only material that actually makes economic and environmental sense to recycle is aluminum, and the rest (plastic, paper, et al) is all feel-good BS and attempts to create jobs. A good idea that is flawed in practice and doesn't work out as well as one might hope... Just like hybrids.
Because that post deserves it. What a load of BS.
First off Top Gear isn't a source of factual information, they are an entertainment program. They have a massive anti-EV, anti-Hybrid bias. Do you remember Tesla story where they had to push the Tesla off because it ran out of power? Well it didn't actually run out of power, they just did that for dramatic effect. I love watching Top Gear as entertainment, but they are not credible source of anything.
So who knows what the actual facts of the M3 run where, but still you are just making the information up, because even top gear didn't make those claims.
They raced a Prius around a track at it's absolute limit, pedal to the metal 100% of the time, and followed it in a M3 which could match the Prius easily at part throttle and under those circumstances and claimed the M3 got better gas mileage. That is possible but given it is Top gear, in no way guaranteed.
But even Top gear didn't claim that an M3 got better highway MPG.
The rest of the post is just a reiteration of the debunked Hummer is better than a Prius FUD.
Pure FUD, no facts. If there isn't a mod for that, there should be.
That was a horrible Top Gear. The tests where all favored the BMW.
You don't drive a Prius like you do a BMW.
Why don't the hook a trailer to the Prius and compare it to a big rig? The Prius would loose there as well.
They always make excuses for the big engine. I could easily come up with latest where the Prius beats the fell out of a BMW. say traveling S. on the 605 from City of industry into hunting beach at about 5PM.
Not even lose to accurate. Manufacture of a car is about 50,000 miles worth of gasoline for the average vehicle. So if a car lasts 300,000 miles (500,000 for diesels) then we're looking at just 14% of total energy expenditure, not 75%.
Of course this is why the Cash for Clunkers idea was ridiculous. If people had been required to upgrade to 40mpg or higher, then it would have been good, but going from 20 to 25mpg is nothing. The increased fuel efficiency does NOT make up for the ~50,000 miles worth of manufacturing energy wasted to destroy a perfectly working vehicle.
It's the equivalent of me going round smashing windows in order to try to boost the economy. (Or starting a war.) It's destruction not production
It's the other way around, actually. 80 - 90% of a vehicle's lifetime energy use is in driving it around. You can google many versions of this calculation, but here's one from Slate [slate.com].
You might be remembering the report from a few years ago that claimed a Hummer was more efficient than a Prius, but that's been pretty thoroughly debunked [thecarconnection.com] many times now.
You might be remembering the report from a few years ago that claimed a Hummer was more efficient than a Prius, but that's been pretty thoroughly debunked many times now.
Unfortunately, it's not actually well-debunked by your link, which claims that the report was well-debunked, but then goes on to quote only that report when giving any lifetime per-mile energy consumption figures. Do you have any useful links with which to debunk the report?
Tesla, to me, seems to be the same old inefficient car bodies with a bunch of batteries squeezed into it. Batteries where the elements come from strip mining and other nasty things, so the environmental impact is just shifted and reduced a bit, but not a lot.
OTOH, Aptera, to me, represents a new way of thinking.
(...and running, and running, and running, without stopping...)
Nissan LEAF has been announced at a price point that makes it cost-competitive with the Prius, which nobody expected. Toyota is now terrified because they bet the farm on hybrids, which have shitty mileage! Yes, I said it, their mileage is shit. You get the same effective mileage or better with a small TDI. In the really real world, 1.8 TDI Golfs get better mileage than any Prius. And that doesn't even get into the Lupo with 1.6 BlueTec diesel... which we can't have here because it won't pass federal crash test requirements.
Parallel hybrids are a really dumb idea and nobody has brought us a plug-in series hybrid yet. Enter: Nissan LEAF, to actually change the game. Nobody will take people like Aptera seriously without EVs gaining more market traction. Thanks, Ghosn.
And that doesn't even get into the Lupo with 1.6 BlueTec diesel... which we can't have here because it won't pass federal crash test requirements.
Cars with small diesel engines aren't exactly a rarity in Europe. You've used the Lupo as an example but every manufacturer has a couple of other cars of similar size which generally get similar mileage.
Though much of Europe probably pays twice or three times what you pay in the US for fuel...
The important part is that now the foucs is on fuel efficienty and not on maximum power.
And i am still suprised there are no diesel hybrids yet from anyone. Maybe the extra diesel noise would give a strange driving expierence?
There is one small detail:
One can buy a running toyta prius 5 years ago, but a nissan leaf is not yet for sale. You cannot compare a previous generation car with a future generations car. Well actually you can because parent poster did just that.
In the really real world, 1.8 TDI Golfs get better mileage than any Prius.
If you used the same kind of engine and drive system on a Golf-sized vehicle and a Prius-sized vehicle (whether both TDI or both hybrid), with similar performance, you'd expect the Golf sized vehicle to get better gas mileage, because the Golf is a smaller car with less passenger and payload capacity.
Its like claiming TDI's are crap because the original Honda Insight hybrid got much better gas mileage than the Golf, and wrong for exa
I like it! First, I've been around Tesla; involved as a third-party with drivetrain development. They are a GREAT group of engineer's with entreuprenurial spirit... Everyone I worked with took ownership with the goal of designing/engineering top quality. Those of you who are not in the automotive world don't have any concept of what goes into building a passenger vehicle nor the cost associated with development of new technologies for this market. Yes with a decent bank-roll I'm guessing that 80% of the

A) It's a luxury sports sedan. Not a compact, not an econocar, not a even just a luxury car. It's equivalent to an Audi A6 or a BMW 3 series. Both of which run into the $40,000s similarly equipped.
B) Fuel savings for the average driver are estimated to be at around $4000 per year. That means if you keep this puppy for as little as 3 years you've come out ahead compared to similarly equipped vehicles.
C) "Affordable" in this case is a relative term, relative to the cost of the original Tesla roadster $
The challenge is bringing the ability to self-charge vehicles to more people.
Apartment people are not going to be able to charge their own electric car anytime soon, so they are out of the self-charge market (they'll have to go to a station). At least until there is some portable battery pack...
Few people in America have Garages to charge their electric cars.
More have Street parking in front of their townhouse or single family house.

Typical myopia of a city-dweller. Try looking at numbers before talking. Cities in the US haven't changed appreciably in population since the '50s. Nearly all the population migration in the past half century was into suburbs. Where a whopping 52% [pbs.org] of the country now lives. One of the major distinguishing factors of suburbs vs. urban areas is the high availabil
I was trying to figure out what Toyota gets out of this. They have everything they need to build their own EVs. The Prius has electrical components for everything, it is nearly an EV already and they have had the Rav4 EV, and the FCHV test bed platforms. There is nothing in technology that they really need Tesla for.
But I think I know what they get out of this: ZEV credits in California. 50 Million is pocket change compared to the cost of bringing their own new EV to market. This lets them cover their ZEV requirements in California on the cheap if they don't really believe a full EV is practical (money making) for them at this time.
The actual California State pages on ZEV program seem to be down for me right now, but this is what I am talking about:
http://articles.latimes.com/2008/mar/28/business/fi-zev28 [latimes.com]
"Under the new standards, passed unanimously, the board will require the largest companies selling cars in the state to produce 7,500 electric and hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles for sale, lease or loan in California from 2012 to 2014 -- down from the 25,000 required in the period under the previous rules.
In addition, carmakers will be called upon to make about 58,000 plug-in hybrid electric vehicles in the same period. The previous regulation, passed in 2003, made no provisions for plug-in hybrids because they were not considered viable at the time."
Combining Toyota's "Can't Stop!" technology, to solve Tesla's limited range problems is pure genius!
Information is the inverse of entropy.

South Florida now has more in common with New Orleans than a knack for hosting hurricanes: a new breed of restaurants that blend Cajun spices and entrees with traditional barbecue. Enter VooDoo BBQ and Grill, a Louisiana-based chain of quick-food eateries making a push in South Florida with the launch of a restaurant in Pembroke Pines and, coming soon, a location in Kendall.
Given all the mediocre barbecue joints that litter South Florida, it's safe to say VooDoo brings much-needed jazz to the party. You're going to find some quality meats at the price, and delicious, Cajun-inspired rubs.
The small, casual restaurant hams up its New Orleans roots with a soundtrack on the overhead speakers straight out of Mardi Gras, a festive purple and yellow palette and a menu with "bur-gahs," "voodoo chicken" and "N'awlins shrimp tater" (translation: a burger, a loaded bacon chicken sandwich and a baked potato with shrimp on top). Orders are taken at the front counter. Someone will bring out your food, and occasionally come by to check on your table.
Now, telling folks what sort of barbecue sauce they should eat is akin to talking religion and politics. However, it's safe to say that the sauces here are polarizing. If you like highly punchy, tangy sauces, you'll be satisfied with the three offered at VooDoo BBQ: "cane sugar tangy," "mango crystal spicy" and an also-tangy "mojo sauce" (calm down, Cubanitos, it's not the garlicky stuff). VooDoo offers none of the earthy, brown sauces you find in other barbecue restaurants, which may alienate some fans of the cuisine. But the rubs are so outstanding, you'll be tempted, as our group was, to skip the sauce altogether and let the meat stand on its own merits.
Of the appetizers we sampled, we'd go right back for the Big Easy chili fries ($4.99): Cajun-spiced fries topped with a delicious, hearty chili made with meat trimmings. We also loved the NOLA soup sampler ($7.99), with three soups: that same chili, an enjoyable crawfish bisque and some nice, poignant chicken and sausage gumbo. Better left alone are the barbecue nachos ($7.49), which came with cold chips and a too-pungent sauce.
The acid test for any barbecue place is the beloved pulled-pork sandwich, and VooDoo passed with flying colors ($4.49 regular, $5.99 regular). This is the tastiest pulled-pork sandwiches I've had in a long time. We loved the tender meat and the spiced rub.
Jerk chicken ($3.99 for a quarter-pound, $6.49 for a half-pound and $11.99 for a pound) isn't what you'd expect, but give it a chance. This version is all white meat and neatly sliced. But once again, the Cajun rub won us over, resulting in a fragrant piece of chicken that we picked clean.
The barbecue shrimp ($9.99) is a high-on-value platter of jumbo shrimp simmered in a Worcestershire and herb-butter sauce that had our tongues celebrating. It's easy to miss on the back of the menu, so take a look.
We sampled a spicy HooDoo burger ($4.49 for a quarter-pound, $6.49 for a half) with pepper Jack cheese and pikliz, a delicious Haitian coleslaw, but the kitchen burnt the flavor out of what was not an impressive meat patty to begin with, so we'd pass next time. Baby-back ribs ($9.99 for a half-rack, $17.99 for a full) were promising, with those same outstanding rubs at play, but it seems as if these would be a better bet at lunchtime, since the ribs on our nighttime visit had the too-soft exterior typical of end-of-the-day barbecue.
We enjoyed all the side dishes ($1.99 for a small portion, $2.79 for a regular). The baked beans are just how I love them: thick and saucy without being soupy, a hearty amount of brown sugar and just the right amount of tanginess to make them interesting. Sweet-potato soufflé was also a hit, especially at the price, so we cajoled ourselves into ordering another round, despite being bloated by the end of the meal. Fries here have a nice Cajun seasoning, and the mac and cheese is perfectly gooey.
Dessert is mostly a miss here, though it didn't offend for a barbecue place. The warm brownie ($2.99) was tough. The bananas Foster ($4.99) was undercooked. White-chocolate bread pudding ($3.49) looked delicious in the photos, but wasn't rich or gooey enough.
All told, we found an excitingly different barbecue experience for South Florida in VooDoo BBQ. The variety of accessible Cajun dishes, delicious meat rubs, upbeat atmosphere and quality meat means we'll be back for a little more New Orleans-barbecue magic soon.

A&T Drops Road Game at Radford
RADFORD, Va. – The North Carolina A&T men's basketball wasn't able to withstand Radford's offense which caused it to suffer a 72-52 setback, Saturday evening at the Dedmon Center.
"We got outworked tonight," head coach Cy Alexander said. "I give credit to Radford they played exceptionally well but I'm very disappointed in our effort. It was like night and day between Thursday and Saturday, it was two different teams. We as the coaching staff have to keep coaching and grinding as the schedule gets even harder. Hopefully this month will make us better and ready for January."
The Aggies who have found it hard to win on the road fell to 3-6 overall as the Highlanders improved to 6-2 overall. Senior guard Richaud Pack recorded his ninth double-figures scoring game with a team-leading 13 points. Sophomore Bruce Beckford who has missed the Aggies' last two games finished with 11 points and six rebounds.
RU's scoring attack was led by junior guard R.J. Price who finished with a game-high 22 points and six rebounds on 6-for-7 shooting from 3-point range. Junior forward Javonte Green added 15 on 5-for-9 shooting from the field.
Radford set the tone early in the game and got out to a 15-2 lead just four minutes into the game. The Aggies found it difficult to guard the Highlanders behind the arc as they hit seven 3-pointers in the first half, five coming from Price. The Highlanders coasted to a comfortable 40-24 advantage at the half.
Jerome Simmons' two free throws got the Aggies to within 13 at 45-32 with 15:24 to play. But the Highlanders scored the next nine points to all but put the game away over the final 12 1/2 minutes of the contest. The Highlanders took advantage of A&T's 16 turnovers which led to 24 points in their favor.
The Highlanders were 24-for-53 (45.3 percent) from the field and 10-for-19 (52.6 percent) from the 3-point range during the game.
The Aggies head back on the road for their next game on Saturday, Dec. 14 when its visits East Carolina. Tip-off is set for 5 p.m.

Dick slips go in the porn forum, not Hot Topics!
So here's a nip slip instead.
Recently I heard a 'wise guy' story that I had a party at my home for twenty-five men. It's an interesting story, but I don't know twenty-five men I'd want to invite to a party. ~Joan Crawford
Well it isn't going to be much of a thread since the http://www.dickslipsblog.com/archive pretty much covers all the ground there is to cover.
One note on the archive though. It has a lot of intentional peek a boo dicks and balls.
I don't think they really qualify as 'slips'.
I would say though that in university, we had one guy that always went commando in shorts and had his junk hanging out unintentionally about half the time. It became a running gag.

CLEVELAND (AP) — The leader of Ohio's largest county has submitted a proposal to the county council to assert its home-rule powers and mail unsolicited, absentee-ballot applications to registered voters there.
The move by Cuyahoga County Executive Ed FitzGerald comes in response to a new state law that bars county elections boards and other public officials from mailing such ballots.
Absentee ballots allow Ohio voters to cast an early ballot by mail or in person.
FitzGerald is a Democrat and is running for governor. His Republican rival, Gov. John Kasich, recently signed a bill allowing the secretary of state to send the applications for general elections, only if the Legislature directs the money for it. Other officials are banned.
FitzGerald's proposal is expected to be considered at the council's meeting March 11.

Shark Reef
series: Saving The Ocean
air date: 3/30/13 12:59 AM
In the first episode, host Carl Safina travels to Glover's Reef Marine Reserve, a coral atoll in the central American country of Belize. Accompanied by a team of U.S. researchers, who've been studying the reserve for eight years, Carl catches, tags and releases a wide variety of sharks. He scuba dives to check out the shark-counting instruments that the researchers have placed around the atoll, and he also visits the shark fin trader in Belize City's fish market. The fin trade now threatens sharks worldwide, but the sharks in Glover's Reef Reserve are safe and thriving.
