The following is an extract from the clubs Golden Jubilee publication in 1974. Some of the records may no longer be current.
1924 – 1926
The Club was formed at a meeting of interested cyclists held on February 18th 1924 at the United Services Club 143,Sidwell Street, Exeter.
Officers elected were Mr.J.A.Steer – Chairman;
Mr.J.W.Moore – Hon:Secretary; Mr.S.Chambers -Hon: Treasurer; Mr.D.Steer – Runs Captain: Mr.J.Westcott – Sub Captain.
Membership was open to Ladies and Gents and it was three shillings for the Annual Subscription. Mr.W.A.Steer, now a vice-President, was among some half dozen who became members at that date.
Mr.Fred Wood and Mr.Frank Chick accepted the positions of President and Vice-President. At the end of the year the membership numbered 49. Mr Arthur Elston and Mr.Cyril Penn joined on the 7th May and Mr.Frank Middleton on the 8th August.
The Hon:Secretary and Hon:Treasurer resigned after a few months and Mr.W.J.Elston took over both positions and held them until 1934.
The first Time Trial was a 10 mile event held in August 1924 and won by C.Deane in 29-34.
The first 25 mile Time Trial was held in the following season for the President's Medals with D.H.Steer winning in 1-17-11 and he won the event again in 1926 in 1-16-50.
During this period there were two Open events run on the Copplestone course, a '25' and a '50' both promoted by the Plymouth C.C..Members of the Exeter Wheelers met with some success – A.Elston 2nd H'cap in the 1924 Open '50', W.Hoddinott and A.Elston 2nd and 3rd H'cap in the 1926 Open '50', D.Steer and W.Hoddinott 2nd and 3rd H'cap in the 1926 Open '25'.
1927 – 1939
In 1927 the Club promoted its first Open event, a '25' at Copplestone and 1st H'cap was won by one of our own members, Harold Fricker, in 1-12-14 and he was the 3rd fastest overall.
The President presented the first "Wood" Cup in 1927 for the Exeter-Highbridge and back Time Trial – 98½ miles – won by A.Elston in 5-55-37 followed
by W.Hoddinott in 1928 in 5-32-0. The Trophy was won outright by Dick Youlden in 1934 – the course had now been correctly measured and extended to a
100 miles. Dick's winning times were 1932: 5-14-8, 1933 5-9-45 and 1934:4-56-31.
In the following year the '100' was made into an Open event and the record now stands at 4-11-12 by Pete Harris of Plymouth in 1968.
On the social side from its inception until the start of the war in 1939, the Club held Wednesday evening and Sunday runs from March to October.
In 1925 a Speed or Hardriders Section came into being under the Captaincy of Arthur Elston and its programme included longer runs to parts of Dorset Somerset and Cornwall.
The early 1930s produced another Club Champion in Dick Roberts who won a number of track races in the N.C.U. Devon and Cornwall Centre Championships also the C1ub's '25' in 1932 and 1933, and with a time of 1-6-55 he also won the 1933 Plymouth Open '25'. During this period we had Maurice Hayman and George Partridge performing well on the track.
In 1934 our present Chairman Steve Kelly joined the Club and won the Club's '10' in 1935 in 26-17, and again in 1936 in 27-3, the '25' in 1-7-20 and the "Wood" Cup '100' in 5-0-24.
1935 was a vintage year for the Club with Steve Kelly, Dick Youlden, Harry Gray, Ken Hurvid, Albert Porter and brothers Len and Ed Chislett. Between them they entered 11 Open events at '25', '50' and '100', one 12 hour event, and won the Team Award in each case.
1933 – 1950
In November 1933 Arthur Elston and Len Chislett riding Tandem and Dick Youlden and Len Banting on Singles, represented the Club at the first meeting of the Western Counties Road Record Association in Bridgewater. Club members broke W.C.R.R.A. records in the following years:
1935 Dick Youlden Plymouth-Exeter and back 4-13-0:
1936 Steve Kelly Bristol-Exeter and back 7-40-0:
1937 Cecil Davey and "Johhny" Johnson – on Tandem Plymouth-Exeter and back 3-51-0:
1949 Cyril Boundy Bristol-Exeter and back 7-0-30; and the Plymouth-Exeter and back 3-38-8.
Race Hon: Secretaries read – 1925-26 A.Elston: 1927-28 C.Penn: 1929-39 A. Elston. Arthur Elston also took over the Hon: General Secretary's task on the resignation of his father Mr.W.J.Elston in 1934. During his period of office he revived and ran the Whit-Monday Sports Meetings in Exeter – in 1934 and 1935 on grass at St.James' Park, and in 1936-7-8-9 at the County Ground, where, thanks to the kind patronage of the late Mr. Reg Oliver, the asphalt banked track of ¼ mile was resurfaced.
Steve Kelly did well at these meetings, so did Len Chislett who won the 5 miles Scratch event at St.James Park in 1939 beating the then 5 mile National Grass Champion W.W.Maxfield.
The post war period gave the Club the trio of Harvey Alford, Tony Bunt and Cyril Boundy. During 1948-51 they won the Team Award in the Belle Vue (West London) Club's Jubilee Open '50' as well as many other Open and Team Races. In 1949 the same trio won the S.W.T.T.A. '25', '50' and '100' events between them and they took the Team Championship.
In 1949 Cyril Boundy came 8th in the National B.A.R.Competition and in 1950 Harvey Alford came 6th winning the Somerset Road Club's Open '50' in 2-1-11 as a qualifying event, whilst Cyril Boundy set up new figures for the S.W.T.T.A. '100' With a ride of 4-31-41.
1953 – 1961
1953 produced a surprise winner of the Club's Open '100' in Danny Hilliard with a 4-31-41 ride and, backed up by Tony Bunt and Nicky Sanders, he completed the trio to win the Team Award.
The middle fifties brought another Club name to the fore in Mike England who won all the Club events and he did well in both Trials and Massed Start events. In 1954 he finished 2nd in the National 94mile Folkestone-London Road Race and in 1955 was nominated as 1st Reserve in the Tour of the Saar race, an 115 mile event run at Saarbrucken. In 1956 he won the National Road Race Championship of the B.L.R.C.
In the late fifties a strong rider emerged in Derek Andrews who won many Club Time Trials and did well in Road Races. He won the Mannin Veg event in the 1958 Isle of Man Cycling Week.
Mike Barrett was another Club member who came to the fore at this time in both Time Trials and Road Races, winning the 1959 Isca Road Race and, backed by Derek Andrews and Ed Davison, the trio took the Team Award.
It was in 1959 that 15 year old Mike Hardy in a ride of 1-5-17 succeeded in winning the 25 mile Devon and Cornwall Junior Championship. In the same year the Club won the Team Award in the S.W.T.T.A. 12 hour event with Ian Davies, Pete Martin and Mike Horsman.
1960 gave Derek Andrews another success when he won the 1st Chard Wheelers Two Counties Road Race, the Club also took the Team Award.
1961 Ian Davies did well in distance events becoming the Devon and Cornwall 12 hour Champion with a ride of 242 miles. He also beat the Exeter – Bristol and back Tricycle record with a time of 7-14-0 and for this ride he was awarded the Western Counties R.R.A. Rose Bowl – for the most meritorious ride of the year.
1968 – 1972
1968 we had Mike Bond coming along winning the Club '10' and '25' events, with Tony Keyte taking tht '50' and '100' events and Senior B.A.R.Shield and in 1970 Mike Bond won all the Club events and the Senior B.A.R.Shield.
During the 1960s another stalwart was Ken Ham, for as well as being Club Treasurer, he organised the Isca and Tom Hawkins Road Races.
July 1968 saw the resignation of Tony Keyte as Hon: Secretary and Dick Bond took over, continuing in office until the family left Exeter in 1971. During his four years Dick proved himself to he a very efficient and hard working official and when he left it was a big loss to the Club.
Our current Club Champion is Roger Dean. He won the Club '10', '50' and '100' events in 1972, the '10' '25' and '100 in 1973, and all Club events for 1974, including the Senior B.A.R. Shield for the third time. Roger won the Club's Open '100' in 1974 in the good time of 4-36-31.
Mention must be made of Jim Beed. He has been a great worker for the Club, has competed in Time Trials, was Hon:R.T.T.Secretary for many years and is a past holder of the Senior B.A.R.Shield.
Pete and Jean Luxton too deserve mention. Pete supporting the Club events and doing a spell as R.T.T. Hon: Secretary during his twenty years of nembehip. Jean has competed in Ladies events with success, including a good ride of 190 miles in n S.W.T.T.A. 12 hour event. She has for the past eight years organised the Club's Open '100'.
Fred Thorp who joined us in late 1971 took on the Time Trials Secretary's job and has been very successful in boosting both the interest and the entries in Road events in the area.
On the social side Mr.W.A.Steer was Hon:Social Secretary from 1933 – 1937 and during that period he organised several successful dances.
The Club has provided many of the officials for the governing bodies over the years:
Bill French, Bill Webber, Maurice(Tiny) Webber and Frank Middleton as N.C.U.Judges; Arthur Elston as N.C.U.General Councillor, Handicapper and Judge for the Devon and Cornwall Centre; Jim Beed as Hon: Secretary South West R.T.T.C.-a position now held by Fred Thorp; Arthur Elston, Steve Kelly and Fred Thorp as R.T.T.C.Timekeepers;
The present Chairman of the S.W.R.T.T.C. is Arthur Elston who is also the Senior Timekeeper – a post he has held since the 1930s.
Roger Dean is the current Hon: Treasurer for the S.W.Division of the B.C.F.
During the post war period the Club owes much to the Lady members including Mrs.G.Kelly, Mrs.J. Pile, Mrs.J.Luxton, Mrs.M.Elston, Mrs.A.Bond and Mrs.W.Steer, for running Jumble Sales and a number of other functions to augment the Club's finances.
The Club's thanks are also due to the late Ern Pile who from the early days of the Club until 30 years later was the unpaid trainer and coach to the racing boys.
The Club has had only three Presidents in its 50 years –
|*the late Fred Wood
|1924 – 1935
|*the late Ernest Head
|1936 – 1953
|*Arthur Elston

American Made
American Made
American Made is one of the greatest movie of 2017. Do you ever stay at home with nothing better to do than watch tv, and think, "I need a really high quality movie for this evening", but you can't think of a single good hq movie to watch? I don't watch many movies online in action category, but this one was amazing. Now why this movie falls in the category of one of the greatest of all time online? It is a movie that truly knows what it is and wastes not even a second in conveying what that is. I've been searching for more films online like this since watching and researching it, vainly... IMDb is the most popular movie site with user polls and reviews, but people know nothing, if I were god, I would move this movie to position 1. The action, special effects, characters and score are all perfect to me. You don't need to be a action fan to enjoy it. The main reason this website is better than 123movies is that it has almost every movie ever released even hindi, chinese and korean movies. What's even better, here is almost any high quality film online, and almost every one of them is in 1080p or 720p HD. That's what I like the most. I haven't found this full movie anywhere else so I uploaded it here on lavamovies, and many other movies available on the homepage, so now this movie will be available online for free for all. There was another site with this movie online - 123movies, but it got deleted. I offer this free movie with subtitles. Choose between openload, megavideo, entervideo, videowood and many other mirrors. Summarizing, I just want to tell you that I announce the end of people asking Google "Where can I watch American Made online for free?" or "Where can I download American Made online for free?", because well. It's all here. I wish I could be born again to not know this movie and watch it like first time again...

FAIRMOUNT PARK (WPVI) --Even though the Philadelphia Museum of Art was closed, it was still packed with people.
Dozens of them decided to go sledding down the museum steps on Saturday.
And some were even able to make it down on snowboards.
It's always a favorite spot for winter fun in the city.

Well… if you've missed the why behind this Bullet Journal 101 series, make sure to check out my intro post from yesterday here. I'll recap in a nutshell that I'm teaching a Bullet Journal 101 class to some high school students. And this post is all about what and how I prepared for that!
Where does one start to prepare for something like this? Well let me tell you.. from the creator himself.
The Research
Take a look at the video over at www.bulletjournal.com and watch, creator, Ryder Carroll explain the bullet journal process in just over 4 minutes.
This was where I started, because honestly if you follow my Instagram you'll know that my Bullet Journal is not exactly "simple". So I wanted to make sure to get back to the basics to be able to explain how this system works at it's core. From there, I started a basic list of all the things I wanted to cover. And what a better place to capture that than in my BULLET JOURNAL!
I even started a list of page spread ideas that would be useful for students.
From there… ENTER PINTEREST. I started a board specific to this class and started pinning away anything that I thought would be useful to teach these students. This board has a range of things, from bullet journal basics, spread ideas to even study tips and class schedules. Then along the same lines, I hit up YOUTUBE and watched several videos under the search Bullet Journaling for Students. Although a college student, Ricardo over at Bujo Boosted, has some great videos about bullet journaling as a student. I'm especially drawn to his study log, even to the point where I was slightly sad that I'm not a student and would have no use for it.
The Supplies
Then I took to the stores to find the supplies to get these students started. Now if this were a perfect world and I was $500 richer I would have loved to purchase Leuchtturm1917 dot grid journals for all 6 students who are signed up for this class… but I opted for the journal I actually use as my prayer journal.
Just a basic lined journal from Wal-Mart ringing in at just over $3.50. This is a great journal for several reasons. It's a hard bound journal with an elastic closing strap, it has a ribbon bookmark, and it lays flat for easy writing. It even comes in three colors, black, pink and green.
I'll also be providing each student with a Pilot B2P 0.7 gel pen. This is a great starter pen, although I am partial to my new Lamy LX rose gold fountain pen. But lets get back to the Pilot pen. It does smear if you are too quick to rub your hand against something you've just written. But it writes smoothly, and has a cool environmentally friendly feature; it is actually a recycled plastic water bottle.
And last, but certainly not least, I've created some washi tape sample cards. I just cut and laminated some patterned paper (about the size of a business card) and added a variety of washi to each card. It's an easy way to introduce the students to washi tape, and how easy it is to decorate your bullet journal with.
Planning the Class
The next thing I started to do was plan out the structure of the class. I headed back into my own BuJo and started listing out the things that I felt I would want to cover, and tried to allot them to one of the two days of the class. I'll be typing this up and rearranging some of the information for better flow.
I'll touch more on this in my next two posts and I go over the specifics.
Gathering the Artsy Supplies
The last thing I did was gather all my artsy like supplies that the students can use as they set up their journals.
This is the best $20 I've ever spent. This caddy is wonderful. I'm able to hold so much stuff in it. I've got pens and pencils, markers, sticky notes and flags, scissors, tape runners, white out, pencil sharpeners, rulers, stencils, fountain pens, exra ink and some washi tape.
I wanted to bring even more washi tape, because I like to line my monthly spreads with a strip of washi on the edge of the page so I can easily flip to that page. I knew what I had given each student on their card wouldn't be enough to do this for more than one or two months, plus provide them with some to decorate their pages with. All this washi is the Scotch Expression brand (my favorite kind of washi). I have the washi all strung onto a cross stitch hoop and it fits neatly into that caddy!
I bought his pen roll up bag in addition to the caddy for about $9.00. It has 4 zippered triangle pockets. I've got bic cristal pens, papermate ink joy pens, papermate flairs, frixion erasable markers, staedtler triplus fineliners and some cheap brush style markers I purchased from Michaels. It all rolls up and fits nicely into the caddy.
I wanted the students to have a variety of products that I've used and that are popular in the bujo world to see and test out before they decide to purchase for themselves.
Stay tuned for tomorrow's post where I'll share about the first class and as always stay addicted Bullet Journal-Aholics.

Martin, Paul Edgar Philippe, Jr.
Paul Edgar Philippe Martin, Jr., 1938–, Canadian politician, prime minister (2003–6) of Canada, b. Windsor, Ont. The scion of a politically active family (his father served in parliament and ran unsuccessfully for Liberal party leader three times), Martin became a lawyer (1966) and president of Canada Steamship Lines (1974), which he later purchased. Elected as a Liberal to parliament in 1988, he made an unsuccessful bid for the party leadership post two years later. In 1993, Martin became finance minister under Prime Minister Jean Chrétien, and by the late 1990s had brought the federal budget out of deficit, making a name for himself as a fiscal conservative. By 2001, Martin was actively maneuvering to succeed Chétien, a situation that led the prime minister to fire the more popular Martin as finance minister in 2002. In Oct., 2002, Chrétien announced he would not seek a fourth term, and Martin began campaigning openly for the leadership post, which he won in Nov., 2003. He succeeded Chrétien as prime minister the following month. Elections in June, 2004, returned Martin and his party to power, albeit as a minority government forced to contend with fallout from financial improprieties that occurred under Chrétien. His government fell in Nov., 2005, forcing him to call an election, which the Liberals lost (Jan., 2006), and Martin resigned as party leader.

Plate Reverb
We have featured two of the most beloved plate reverbs ever manufactured, the EMT 140 and the Lawson plate. Many different settings all in 96/24! There are 26 different files in this set, with a good deal of variety for application, whether vocals, brass, etc. There's just nothing like a great sounding plate to make a vocal shine and pierce through the mix. While there's nothing like the real deal, we've come really close and you don't have to pay a hefty price in an anologue studio to get it. One of the problems that many run into when using a real plate, and paying good money for the studio time, is wondering if the plate is tuned correctly. So even when a studio has a plate, does it really sound as good as you'd expect? With too little tension on the plate, you get a muddy bottom end, and not having even tension across the plate will render a decay that does not envelop that decay smoothness that is coveted by those who love those old plate reverbs. You don't dont have to wonder here. Place these files in your favorite DAW or convolution engine and you'll be glad you purchased this set.

This is not a library set you buy and don't get much out of, you really get what you pay for here.
Great-sounding plates really help me out. This is what I refer to as a great-sounding impulses at a decent price. Both the EMT and the Lawson are faithful reproductions and for the money, is hard to beat!
These files are definitely by all means, professional, but they are also sharp and really stand out in the production world.

Log Cabin & Overnight Husky Safari 16.12.-22.12.
Luxurious cabin in Nellim, far out in the wilderness with a sledge dog safari, snowmobiling to a reindeer farm, snowshoeing and an aurora camp.
Aurora Borelis is a natural phenomenon with the highest propability to occur in September-October and again in February-March. The northern part of Lapland belongs to the auroral zone. You can see auroras there throughout the winter on three out of four nights, even though you cannot see them if the weather is cloudy. You need a clear and dark night. The best time of the day is plus minus 2 hours from the midnight.
Nellim wilderness hotel is located by the 3rd biggest lake of Finland, lake Inari. The Nellim village is in the south-eastern end of the lake, 45 kilometres east of Ivalo. Nellim has ten aurora bubbles, glass igloos, which offer a unique way to watch at the northern lights safe and warm through the night from your bed.
Polar night takes place from the first week of December to the second week of January. The coldest month is January. After that the days are getting longer fast and the sun shines more and more warming the days and daytime activities. For families we recommend the early season from mid-November to late December and again from mid-February to mid-April.
Activities included in the package:
1) Snowshoeing tour (4h) takes you to the snowy forest. After a while you will arrive at campfire where you wilderness guide will prepare lunch for you. Snowshoeing is easy but gives you a good deal of exercise. Alternatively you may choose cross-country skiing by easy back-country skies.
2) Snowmobiling to a reindeer farm (5h), where you will hea wbout reindeer herding and can feed reindeers. On the way back you can see, how winter fishing takes plase by nets and can try ice-fishing.
Cross country skiing 2h is a fun activity taking place at the hotel. Your skiing instructor will give you easy back-country skies to start with. You wil learn the basic techniques and will make a short skiing tour in the hotel neighborhood.
Aurora tour 2,5h is worth taking on one night at least. There are several types of aurora safaris available: by car, snowshoes or pulled by a snowmobile. By car you can get to the famous Paatsjoki bridge and have campfire, by snowshoes you have to work out yourself in order to get to campfire and in third option you are pulled to campfire by snowmobiles and you can look at the sky without having to drive.
3. Overnight husky safari takes you over the Arctic landscape, rivers and lakes to a wilderness cabin. Each participants including the 14-year old has his/her own team of huskies. When arriving to the wilderness cabin, you will first take care of the dogs, then yourselves.
The Alaskan huskies are friendly, social and active dogs, which are very eager to run and pull the sledge. They like working! Sled-dog ride is a great way to experience the Lappish nature in winter. In mid-winter, when it is dark outside and you are using headlamps, it is really exciting. In spring, when it is really bright and white outside, it is really enjoyable. For the overnight safari you'll get your own sledge pulled by 4-5 huskies, which means you get to mush your team the whole time and train your skills in mushing in many ways. in many kinds of terrains.

Michael Smith has cooked in the most prestigious venues in the world. Now he serves up home-cooking lessons with a dash of tough love.
As chef Michael Smith cooks for at-home audiences on his wildly popular show "Chef at Home," he demystifies the alchemy of the kitchen. With every quick dice and handy tip, he exudes a quietly whimsical sensibility that makes him instantly relatable. Off-screen, as a food activist and educator, he minces no words when it comes to the importance of uncomplicated, nutritious home cooking.
It's hard to believe that for six years, this man was head chef at one of the best known restaurants in Canada, plating up delicate little creations such as "lemon risotto with spring asparagus salad, Parmesan crisp, crème fraîche and lemon froth." The Culinary Institute of America graduate cooked alongside luminaries like David Bouley in New York, and Albert Roux in London.
Then, in 2002, something happened that demolished his view of cooking as high art.
"When my son was born, it forced a rethink in my world on what food is in reality," Smith said in an interview with Taste of Life.
His conclusion? "I didn't know a damn thing about food."
Spurred by this realisation and a "slow epiphany" that took place over several years, he set about figuring out how to rebuild a career based on understanding the challenges of the kitchen for ordinary people.
He and his wife, Chastity, bought The Inn at Bay Fortune on Prince Edward Island, where his career had begun years earlier, and remodeled it after the image of the cook that he has become.
The Inn, which opened under its new management this summer, is an extension of this reinvigorated mission. The crème fraîche and frothy lemon are no more. Instead, guests "feast" at 7 p.m. sharp, side-by-side at a banquet table, food served family-style, all of it prepared in a "25-foot, brick-lined, wood-burning, fire-breathing beast." Chives, spuds, and a battery of other vegetables that accompany the wood-roasted meats are all harvested and foraged locally. The Inn employs three full-time farmers.
"We're not doing fine dining in the slightest bit," Smith declares. He found fine dining to be too much of a niche. "The Inn stood for that intricately plated fine dining for many years; we threw out that failed model. Frankly, the world has moved on. We started from scratch: fire, farm, feast. They're the three words that define what we do."
Smith has become one of the most popular cookbook authors in Canada, in part by producing cookbooks for people who don't cook.
The need for this is acute: health crises stalk the developed world as people feed themselves and their families processed and sugary foods. Nearly 60 percent of the Canadian population is obese or overweight, according to a 2005 parliamentary report; obesity costs the Canadian economy up to $7 billion a year, according to an academic study in "Obesity Reviews."
"We've lost several generations of cooks in North America, with an increasing reliance on convenience food," Smith said. "Somewhere after World War II, we believed we had a God-given right to convenience, along with life, liberty, and happiness. But unfortunately, it's killing us."
Smith's new book, Make Ahead Meals, presents a range of strategies for busy people tackling their kitchen duties. The slow cooker features heavily, as well as techniques such as when to do prep, or how to efficiently make two lasagnes instead of one.

As my adversary has failed to define the necessary words, so I'll do it
Technology: machinery and equipment developed from the application of scientific knowledge.
Control: to influence or direct people's behavior or the course of events.
Con's(Against): No, we aren't letting technology control us
Pro's(For) Stand: Yes, we are letting technology control us
First off, here's an advice. Punctuation is very important. There are many occurences where your punctuations made me re-read the whole sentence, as it is very, very confusing.
Also, from your previous argument, you did not clarify anything about whether technology is controlling us or not. You're just presenting the pros and cons of technology, instead of whether we are letting technology control us. Even so, I'll still present why I believe we are indeed letting technology control us.
From the definition above, technology is indeed influencing and directing our behavior. Every time humanity discovers and invent new technology, our behavior also evolves. This is natural, as we are just trying to adap to new discoveries. As the saying goes, "When in Rome, do what the Romans do." Similarly, in the future, adapt to it.
Here are some examples how human has changed. Back then, when humans need knowledge, they would seek advice from a wise man, or a sage. When books were discovered, man would head off to the library for knowledge. When the internet was discovered, man changed his behavior and started his search for knowledge on the PC. Note how humans have changed. Their goal remained the same; to seek knowledge, but their methodology evolved as technology evolved.
One of the major technnology that has influenced us a lot is the internet. Instead of reading physical books, we have changed to reading texts online. From watching movies in cinema, we now watch online. From how we used to send letters, we can know Facebook or e-mail our friends. The internet had indeed influenced and change how our lives were.
To end, I'm not saying that technology is bad or good. I'm saying that it has indeed controlled, or influenced how we live greatly. So, in short, technology has indeed influenced and direct our lives, and we are fine to let it control and lead us on towards the future. Thank you.

>Reported vote: stschiffman// Mod action: Removed<
3 points to Pro (Arguments). Reasons for voting decision: Con's argument confused me. First, he talked about technology laying off librarians, then he talked about student's saving gas not having to go to the library. Con should have taken a side and stuck with it, he/she shouldn't have been going back and forth.
[*Reason for removal*] The voter is required to assess specific arguments made by both sides and not merely assess one side's points.

Sourav, RP Singh to get match practice against New Zealand AOctober 2nd, 2008 - 4:54 pm ICT by IANS
Chennai, Oct 2 (IANS) The last minute inclusion of Sourav Ganguly and Rudra Pratap Singh has lent a different perspective to the second four-day match between India A and New Zealand A commencing at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium here Friday.Ganguly and R.P. Singh, included in the Indian senior team for the four-Test series against Australia starting in Bangalore next week, have been drafted into the "A" team to gain match practice.
The two experienced campaigners has further strengthened the Suresh Raina-led India A team that won the first match by 129 runs Wednesday. While the composition of the Indian playing XI is still to be finalised, Ganguly and R.P. Singh are expected to be in the middle.
The presence of the two senior India players will make New Zealand's task doubly difficult as they hope to square the series.
The Kiwis were all but outplayed in the first Test that saw a fine century by Raina, whose turbo-charged innings of 146 off 130 balls effectively clinched the game for the hosts.
Despite the victory, the Indian batting did not exactly show up in good light and it was mainly due to the efforts of Raina and Murali Vijay (45 and 57) that helped the hosts to stay in front.
It was the Indian bowling that eventually did the trick as paceman Ashok Dinda took a five wicket haul in the second innings while leg-spinner Amit Mishra, included in the Indian Test side, and off-spinner Mohnish Parmar picked up wickets at crucial stages to scuttle the Kiwis.
New Zealand, in contrast, had their moments, but failed to press home the advantage, especially in the first innings when replying to India's 248, they collapsed from 179 for three to 189 for eight and were eventually all out for 230 thanks to some big hitting by the tail-enders.
From India's perspective, there are indications that promising batsman Cheteshwar Pujara, surprisingly kept out of the first game, might make it to the playing eleven.
The 20-year old Rajkot-born Pujara was the leading run scorer at the Under-19 World Cup and has to his credit a triple century in the under-14 category and also a double hundred against England Under-19 side.
The Indian squad, much less the playing eleven, would be finalised late Thursday night or Friday, it was announced.

"I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading!"
-Jane Austen
December 16th marked the 240th birthday anniversary of the beloved author Jane Austen! If you haven't already noticed I kind of have a little obsession with Jane Austen. I fell in love with her, her books, oh and the movies not only because she was a great writer but also because of her irony, wit, and wisdom.
Sunday I got to go to a birthday celebration in honor of her with the Austin Texas JASNA group. I wore my white dotted swiss gown and a teal bonnet that I recently made.
"There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature."
-Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

Ryan Reynolds' attempt to relieve himself while on a motorcycle excursion ended with the actor standing in a horse carcass.
One of the Deadpool actor's hobbies is taking long cross-country motorbike rides, and on one trip from Utah to Wyoming he decided to stop by the side of the road for a toilet break.
He hopped into a ravine so he could pee in private and found himself standing knee deep in a dead horse.
"There was this God awful stench," Ryan told late night host James Corden, "I realized as soon as I jumped in there, I jumped into a dead horse, like, up to my knees. I didn't even want to get rid of my pants, I wanted to go to a hospital and have my legs cut off!"
And he never did get to relieve himself: "I didn't pee!" he recalled. "You just suck it up and you step out. That changes you."

Intensive short-duration periods of grazing, interspersed with long recovery periods, are typical in natural grasslands throughout the world. These are ecosystems that co-evolved with migrations of bison, wildebeest, caribou and other herding ungulate species.
Natural grasslands, with their diversity of deep-rooted native plant species perpetuated by grazing and other periodic natural disturbance events, foster increased soil organic carbon content and enhanced water infiltration.
By emulating the migrational grazing pattern of ungulate wildlife in natural grasslands, ranchers are implementing Adaptive Multi-Paddock (AMP) grazing on their cattle ranches. These regimes are being studied by AES and its partners to determine the levels of soil carbon sequestration accrued from this strategy.
AMP grazing regimes emulate the high intensity, short-duration grazing and long recovery periods of native ungulates in natural grasslands. With this in mind, a pilot study, using peer-reviewed methods, was undertaken in Alberta, Canada, comparing AMP paddocks to heavily stocked and lightly stocked continuously grazed paddocks.
This pilot project was funded by Shell GameChanger through a grant to Arizona State University. The study is a collaborative effort between ASU, AES, Texas A&M, CarbonNation and Shell Oil Co.
In this study, scientists measured whether AMP improves: (1) soil organic carbon stored, (2) water infiltration rates, and (3) the diversity of vegetation in the paddocks – when compared to the two continuous grazing regimes.
In Alberta, as also was found in northern Texas by one of the study's principal investigators, AMP grazing contributed statistically significant increases of soil organic carbon and increased water infiltration rates.
Throughout the world, more and more research is being devoted toward finding ways of enriching carbon-depleted soils that, in turn, builds resiliency to increased prevalence and severity of drought in rangelands.
Encouraged by the findings of this pilot study, the researchers recommend future expanded AMP grazing studies encompassing a wider diversity of soils, climates, and grazing history.

text: A common side effect we hear a lot about is in regards to anabolic steroids possible negative effect on the liver. While this can be a problem its important to understand why and what you can do to prevent it. While steroids side effects surrounding the liver are very real, in-short the largest cause for this problem is the use of oral anabolic steroids; in general, injectable steroids will not cause a problem. Further, this does not mean we cannot use oral anabolic steroids but abuse of orals is a higher risk than with injectables. By keeping our oral steroid use to one oral at a time, using orals for shorter durations as well as taking an herbal liver support supplement will greatly ease any negative steroids side effects you may incur with steroid use.

First, the good news: those tropical storms you've been hearing about aren't really real. They are – according to Rush Limbaugh, at least – the overhyped product of the liberal media, which is hell-bent to convince us that the climate is changing when actually it is not.
So Hurricane/Tropical Storm Harvey, far from a record-setting rainfall event, was a mere scattered shower that gave Texas some much-needed irrigation, and those 70-plus people who died in it were exaggerating their minor injuries. Hurricane Irma, far from the most powerful Atlantic storm in history as it heads toward Florida, is just a figment of your imagination. Climate change? Fake news! Nothing to see here, move along…
Meanwhile, Triad's inimitable Tony May posits that Ronald Reagan wasn't thinking about natural disasters and other crises when he said, "The most frightening nine words in the English language are: "I'm from the government and I'm here to help."
President Trump, having an increasingly difficult time being pals with congressional Republicans, thought he'd try to cozy up to the folks on the other side of the aisle. And we kid you not, it worked! Trump and his new BFFs agreed to a three-month bill to fund the government and extend the federal debt limit, along with an initial aid package for Hurricane Harvey (we presume the "aid" will consist of fake money for the fake damage caused by the fake storm). The Washington Post wondered how things might be different today if the president had tried such a triangulation gambit from the get-go.
The president also decided to end protection for immigrants who as children were brought to the U.S. illegally. Pennsylvania joined 14 other states and the District of Columbia in suing the administration over ending the "Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals" program.
In Harrisburg, a merry band of your more conservative House members unveiled their plan to balance the state budget by utilizing money that's just sitting around in various accounts doing nothing and won't be missed by anyone.
Or, depending on who you talk to, it's an illegal diversion of funds designated for specific important purposes such as transportation. PennDOT Secretary Leslie Richards said the proposed $357 million diversion from the Pennsylvania Public Transit Fund would punch a 35 percent hole in the operating budgets of the state's 37 fixed-route public transportation agencies, translating into severe service cuts and fare increases affecting, you know, lots of people.
Moderate Republican state Rep. Eugene DiGirolamo called for an increase in the state's personal income tax from 3.07 percent to 3.32 percent as the main plug in a $2.2 billion budget hole. There was no word at press time as to whether House Republican leadership would permit the proposal to be discussed.
Another budget-friendly idea, put forth by Auditor General Eugene DePasquale, would be to legalize and regulate marijuana, which he estimates would generate at least $200 million in annual tax revenue.
The PA Department of Environmental Protection reported that climate-damaging methane emissions and volatile organic compounds from Pennsylvania's shale gas industry are on the rise, suggesting that carbon-free nuclear power might be worth keeping around for a while.
On a related note, Lancaster County's two Republican commissioners passed a resolution urging state lawmakers to pursue "fiscally responsible policies" to preserve the state's nuclear facilities.
President Trump nominated Republican Congressman Tom Marino to head the Office of National Drug Control Policy. If confirmed by the U.S. Senate, it will set the wheels in motion to select candidates to replace Marino, a complicated process for Republicans, not so much for the Democrats.
Moderate Republican Congressman Charlie Dent announced that he'll hang up his cleats after his current term. As the leader of the moderate "Tuesday Group, he was critical of the "disruptive outside influences that profit from increased polarization and ideological rigidity that leads to dysfunction, disorder and chaos."
Amazon says it will spend $5 billion to build an additional North American headquarters that would house as many as 50,000 employees. Philly Mayor Jim Kenney and Pittsburgh Mayor Bill Peduto say they'd be more than happy to play host to such a facility.
Our Shameless Client Plug this week goes to Lyft, which announced that it will soon begin offering ride-sharing customers in San Francisco the option of cruising around in autonomous vehicles. Man, ain't tetnology sumpin.'
For our We Can't Make This Up feature, we take you 100 miles or so east, where tomorrow marks the ninth annual Philly Naked Bike Ride, promoting cycling, bike safety and positive body image. Along with clothing, neither registration nor money is required.

This means that a single one-carat diamond will cost you more than three diamonds set in a ring that add up to one carat. As the taste and choice of men vary, even intricate and elaborate designed rings are preferred. These gold rings can be of white or yellow gold.
The most fought for of all the gems, diamonds, have a long romancing history. There are hairpins, office pins, safety pins, costume jewelry pins, push pins, clotter pins, bobby pins, lapel pins and clevis pins, to name a few. Pins used for office jobs are comparatively lightweight and simple, whereas those used for costume jewelry are ornate and heavier.
Cleaning Diamond Jewelry The daily use of diamond jewelry makes its luster dim. Fashion design schools play a major role in shaping and honing the next Betsy Johnson and Tom Ford of the fashion industry.

Not everyone wants a big ol' diamond rock.

Your choice of jewelry style will subtly affect others perceptions, so what guidelines are there to help you select the most flattering jewelry.
Shine & sparkle with diamonds & gemstones. It's actually a straight halter top with a very deep neckline that's held together by a gold ring at the center. Finding the best combination of style, price and value is not always easy, but handbags are among the most important of all fashion accessories.
Commonly used for imitations are glass and other types of crystals, which can be polished and cut in such a way to resemble a real diamond. Precious jewels are associated with special occasions like weddings, parties, balls, ceremonies etc. Artificial jewelry is more comfy and pleasurable to wear.
If many diamonds are used in the piece, the label on the jewelry will give the CTW or Carat Total Weight. My question is related to a black tie wedding I'll be attending in Venice, Italy. Leroy Fong Mens Fashion Tips | Guide on Men's Fashion | Fashion Advice for Men The benefits of mechanical watches are tenfold for a watch enthusiast, as there is nothing quite like exploring and watching the movements inside of a mechanical watch.
And when you do find diamonds that you re interested in don t just stop there and automatically buy them. Well, any cat lover would love these earrings, and enjoy wearing them all of the time. The eyes of this cat will give away that you love siamese cats as well when you wear these earrings.
Look in the right places and you ll be able to find cheap diamond wedding rings and cheap diamond engagement rings. Other parts of the world wear the wedding ring on the right hand (eg. The wedding ring signifies commitment and loyalty to a marital partner and is more commonly women who wear this symbol, but due to the rise in popularity of alternative metals for wedding rings, men are now fast approaching acceptance of wearing a ring also.
First mined in India and derived from the term Adamas by Pliny, the diamond holds several references, among them matrimonial union and even royalty. While men generally are not as enthusiastic about jewelry as women, they do have a liking for good watches. For many men, a watch serves as the only jewelry piece they truly like.
Both methods require that a bed of metal be made flat to allow the diamond to sit carefully down. Who would have ever thought that men from biblical times may have been the ones to give rise to the industry of fashionable handbags. These shorts are great to keep the hip joints warm and make quite a fashion statement.
This is probably not best done by the jeweler you are buying the diamond from because they are often biased and may appraise the diamond at a slightly higher value than what it's actually worth in order to receive more income from the sale of the diamond. This is because the Internet not only provides a wide selection, but also offers some of the best deals on platinum jewelry due to the fierce competition among jewelers online. Shopping for Platinum Jewelry Online Before going to the Web sites of different jewelers, it would also be a good idea for you to do some research on the type of jewelry that you want.
Perhaps you have a specific diamond you want to have professionally appraised by an independent organization. Given this, a person who may want to buy platinum jewelry can expect to pay more than what he would be paying for if he wanted to buy other types of jewelry such as gold jewelry. However, if you really want to buy platinum jewelry, a good source of some of the best prices is the Internet.
To the trained eye, one can find that there are no two diamonds that are precisely the same. Mens Rings is affiliated with Anniversary Flowers. Men's rings are rings that are intended to be worn by men; they are usually wider and thicker in size than rings that are for women.
Most diamonds we find today are at least 900 million years old. Men's silver rings are available in shops in a variety of traditional designs, as well as modern and unique styles. There are men's silver rings which are handcrafted by the world's best artisans; these rings are much more expensive ones.
Comparing Diamonds of Different Size When diamonds of different sizes are compared, the difference in size can make grading more difficult because the large stone shows the color saturation more clearly. However, buying the perfect wedding ring does not mean buying the most expensive one, as there are "money-saving" steps that couples can take in buying the right wedding ring, even if it is made out of platinum. Non-piercing body jewelry is jewelry which looks exactly like piercing body jewelry, but does not actually make any type of hole in the skin.
You could also opt to purchase an imitation or synthetic diamond. However, buying the right wedding ring for his bride may be a bit of a challenge as men are not as meticulous and as patient when it comes to the art of shopping. This can lead to a situation where a man could buy a certain type of ring that cost twice as much because he did not bother to look in the store next door, which sells it for half the price.
Welcome to the exciting world of diamonds. Costume jewelry pins come in various shapes, featuring the forms of animals, birds, fish, flags, angels, flowers and insects. Pink or rose tinted pearl earrings are popular because the tint is deemed very feminine and desirable.
They are less expensive than natural pink diamonds. Pure silver is too soft to be used in jewelry. The most commonly used silver alloy in jewelry is Sterling silver.
When the weight of a diamond is in decimals, this figure is accurate to the last decimal point. Luckily, this piece of jewelry can be cleaned easily by following simple steps. Once the jewelry is brushed with the cleanser, this should be dried afterwards using the proper cloth.

Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman John Fogerty issued a statement in defense of his fellow musician Bruce Springsteen's decision to perform his anti-war anthem "Fortunate Son" for U.S. military members at the Valor Concert earlier this week.
In a written statement, via Rolling Stone, Fogerty explained that he wrote the song more than 45-years-ago, at a time when an "ultraconservative administration" called anyone who questioned their policies "un-American."
He wrote:
That same administration shamefully ignored and mistreated the soldiers returning from Vietnam. As a man who was drafted and served his country during those times, I have ultimate respect for the men and women who protect us today and demand that they receive the respect that they deserve.
As an American and a songwriter, I am proud that the song still has resonance. I do believe that its meaning gets misinterpreted and even usurped by various factions wishing to make their own case. What a great country we have that a song like this can be performed in a setting like Concert for Valor.
President Obama was unable to attend the Veteran's Day concert on Tuesday due to a scheduling conflict, as he was on a trip to China. He did salute the troops via a pre-recorded video tape.

Staying connected in the professional world can be difficult while you're still in college. Using LinkedIn is a great way to establish professional connections and highlight notable accomplishments while working toward your degree. In fact, many professionals would argue the social networking platform is, essentially, becoming the new resume.
"Maintaining a proper LinkedIn page is slowly becoming a requirement," says Hussein Yahfoufi, vice president of technology and corporate services for OneRoof Energy Inc. He says one of the first things he does when considering a job applicant is look up his or her LinkedIn profile. "If the candidate does not have [one], it is sometimes a red flag in itself," he adds.
We connected with professionals spanning several industries and locations to identify some handy tips and tricks on leveraging this resource. Keep reading to find out how to improve your LinkedIn profile and catch the eye of enticing employers.
9 expert tips to improve your LinkedIn profile
4. Make connections
"Connections are the heart of LinkedIn," says Bob Berchtold, founder of Cubicle Sherpa. "What value is a well-written profile if nobody ever sees it?"
While reaching that '500+' mark can be a notable goal, it is also important to make sure you have a healthy network of relevant connections. "When employers take a closer look at your profile, they will want to see industry movers and shakers, or at least industry-relevant contacts among those you connect with," suggests Terach. This will reflect your ability to network within your industry, as well as your drive to stay up-to-date on industry news and information.
8. Make sure your profile matches your resume
Many of our experts agree that this one is critical. "As an employer, one of the first things I do is compare a candidate's LinkedIn profile to their resume," says Alexa D'Agostino, vice president of digital for Black Rhino Solutions, Inc. "You would be shocked at how often they do not match!"
D'Agostino insists you triple-check the dates you have listed under previous employment and the details concerning degrees you've earned, because employers will look to see if they match—you don't want a simple typo to be interpreted as a lie!

Archive:Vantage April 2010
|Old Trip
|This is the sign up and organization page for an old trip. It already happened. Please do not sign up for it.
At least once a year, a group of VOCers head down to Vantage, Washington to climb in Frenchman Coulee, a gorge located in the Columbia River Plateau. There are hundreds of routes, sport and traditional, on a variety of rock ranging from 30m basalt column column cracks to sporty 5.12 jug-fests.
This trip is beginner friendly, but is not meant to be introductory. Most climbs in Vantage are not top-rope accessible, so skills like lead belaying and anchor cleaning are essential (or a friend who can do these for you). You will probably be able to find someone to teach you these skills while on the trip, but it's not being organized by me.
