R.I.C.E Stopped By P.O.L.I.C.E
July 26th, 2019
Tokyo Physio now adds to our list of services for the English speaking community in Japan and beyond with the launch of a triathlon coaching service. Tokyo Physio's co-founders Bevan and Vanessa Colless have a combined 10+ years of successful triathlon training and racing in distances including Olympic, half ironman and ironman. This personal experience, combined with a combined 15 years of sports science and physiotherapy tertiary education gives an excellent platform to provide a triathlon coaching service for those wanting to lift their performances to another level.
Through Tokyo Physio we have developed extensive experience in assisting endurance athletes get to the start line of all types of events, from local 5k races, through to Hawaii Ironman World Championships and Olympic games marathons, we bring a unique skill-set geared to helping you meet your triathlon goals.
Tokyo Physio's triathlon coaching philosophy is to keep it simple to ensure you enjoy your training and races. We maximise the efficiency of your sessions to leave you enough time for your home and work life to flourish as well as your performance.
We subscribe to the reverse periodisation method of training that we have found reduces the incidence of injury, decreases the time needed to train and brings back the fun into training!
The traditional 'periodisation' model used by endurance coaches is to have an athlete build a base in the early stages of the season by doing a lot of long slow distance (LSD) sets to develop endurance. As the race approaches athletes would then work on speed to try a get faster. Following the philosophy of pioneering triathlon coach Brett Sutton; many of today's top pros have flipped that around and found that reverse periodisation is a more effective way to prepare for a triathlon.
In the early stages of the season or a race build we work on getting fast first by developing the correct techniques, strength and skills you require to improve. Only in the last phase of a training build do we work on the long sessions. It has been shown that endurance can be built much more quickly than speed and technique. This also decreases the chance of injury (which we regularly see in Tokyo Physio) which is very common in early season training if an athlete tries to go long before their body is ready for it. It is also perfect method of training for busy age group athletes as the time spent training is reduced.
Consistently following a well structured training program is the cornerstone of triathlon success.
If you're tired of following generic, Zone-based training plans, or suffering through the mind-numbing fatigue of massive volume-based training; this is not what you will get with Tokyo Physio Triathlon Coaching. We like to keep it simple and have our athletes follow a precisely structured training plan that allows each to follow our training philosophies:
C.I.T: Consistency in training. Success in triathlon and endurance sport is not gained overnight, but a consistent – drip, drip, drip approach of consistent effective work outs – each with their own goal.
Progressive Overload: Our training zones are easy, moderate and hard – no heart rate monitor or power meters are required! As long as 'hards' are done hard, 'moderates' are done moderate and 'easies' are done easy, consistent improvement in technique, speed and endurance (and hence race results) WILL happen.
Tokyo Physio is involved in the management and running of a number of training camps in the Niseko region
Bevan has Bachelor degrees in Sports Science (University of Technology Sydney) and Physiotherapy (University of Sydney) and has a long history of competing in endurance sports. Having been a national level cross-country runner in high school, Bevan played soccer and rugby for 15 years before returning to endurance sports in his 30's to focus on triathlons.
Vanessa comes from a gymnastics and springboard diving background, having been nationally ranked in both sports in her teens. She took up triathlons in 2005 and experienced success soon after. Having specialised in women's health in her physiotherapy career Vanessa has a special interest in the specific demands triathlon places on the female body and how to maximise the performance of females.

New cracks found below Devil's Den have some fearful the cave is yet again in danger of collapsing, and have prompted the Historical Commission to take matters into its own hands.
New cracks found below Devil's Den have some fearful the cave is yet again in danger of collapsing, and have prompted the Historical Commission to take matters into its own hands.
Field Study Committee member Mark Juitt told the School Committee on Thursday that workers at the field complex construction site recently found deep cracks beneath the cave, from blasting.
"Unfortunately the rock underneath…does not look like it's supportive enough to support that area," Juitt said.
Devil's Den is a rock structure some claim is historic, located near the athletic field construction site, on a hill behind the high school. Damage to the cave earlier this year during construction infuriated some residents and prompted the town to modify construction plans to save the cave.
Assistant Town Manager Mark Purple yesterday said there are cracks below the cave, but it is too early to guess whether they might endanger the den until a geotechnical engineer studies the area.
"It may look fractured but it may be stable," he said.
Purple said workers have excavated to ground level but still need to dig down another nine feet to install pipes and electrical wires.
Field Study Committee Chairman Dave Barrett said the committee will meet on Wednesday night before Town Meeting, but won't make decisions about the cave until they get a report from the geotechnical engineer.
"It'll be up to the geotech to decide what impact these cracks have," Barrett said.
The Historical Commission, meanwhile, is working to hire its own geotechnical engineer to study the site, said chairwoman Julie Nardone, which Barrett said his committee will allow.
In addition, the Open Space Committee has formally requested a seat at the table when all decisions about the cave's future are made.
Juitt last night said he does not think the cave should be taken down, but said plans will likely have to be modified since the rock below the cave is crumbling.
"I see no value in tearing the den down, in light of everything that's going on," Juitt said.
Meanwhile, others in town are upset the cave may once again be in peril. Many concerned residents have become regulars at the public construction meetings held weekly at the high school.
"Other towns preserve their geological icons and Native American sites," said Historical Commission Chairwoman Julie Nardone. "In Ashland, we treat them like unwanted piles of rock to fracture and split."
Nardone said she is working on finding a geotechnical engineer to give a second opinion. She estimated it would cost about $200, which she said the commission will ask the town to pay.
"If they're paying for one they should pay for two," she said.
But Juitt last night said those residents have been disruptive and stalled the meetings with concerns about the cave. He said they were reprimanded at this week's meeting.
"They've been somewhat accusatory at meetings," he said last night.
Open Space Committee Chairwoman Roberta Soolman yesterday said she sent an email Thursday requesting Open Space and Historical Commission representatives be allowed to weigh in on what is best for the cave.
Soolman said the email went to selectmen, Town Manager John Petrin, School Committee Chairwoman Marcia Reni, Barrett, Juitt, Purple and Nardone.
"Because Devil's Den is a town asset that belongs to everyone, it has historical value, it has architectural value, it just has intrinsic value to people in town," she said. "I think the decision on what to do with it needs to be undertaken by more than just the site committee."
Soolman said construction officials seem to think seeing the cave is enough, but others want access to the den, which now might be out of the question because of the cracks.
That misunderstanding is "why people continue to be upset about the preservation of the den," Soolman said.
She said Barrett told her no decisions have been made, but she said she's not sure that's true.
"I think it's moving a long perhaps more quickly than that," she said, adding that citizens don't want to stall construction, just make sure no hasty decisions are made without their input.
"We want to be there when those decisions happen," she said.
Juitt last night invited the School Committee on Wednesday morning to attend the 9 a.m. construction meeting and site visit at the high school.

Who's got a lady to celebrate?! Maybe you're gearing up for Mother's Day, maybe you have a wedding shower to go to, or maybe your BFF just needs a lift. Whatever the case may be, we've got free printable cards for Mother's Day (or any day).
When spring comes I can't help but get inspired by the happy, colorful blooms that pop up all over town (and the internet, duh). We have a couple of local flower farms that had a gorgeous rainbow of spring ranunculus, and so I stopped by Wild Blooms Flower Farm to pick some up. (We'll have more from that little field trip soon!) I brought them home not really knowing exactly what the plan was yet. But while I was brainstorming, I just kept wishing I could send each one of my readers some flowers because they were just so lovely. They were begging to be shared. So finally I thought, maybe I can send flowers to you all — in a printable form! So we did some fun floral arranging and made them into these cards to share.
Free Printable Cards for Mother's Day (Or Any Day)
- free printable cards (Yay or Exclamation Point)
- computer and inkjet printer
- white cardstock
- scissors or paper cutter
- envelopes (optional)
Make Time: 15 Minutes
First, choose the card you'd like to print. We have the "Yay" card, or the "Exclamation Point" card. Download your favorite, or use them both.
Once they're downloaded, load your home inkjet printer with a sheet of white cardstock. Select the best printer settings to ensure a high quality print. Print your desired card.
After the card is printed, use scissors or a paper cutter to trim around the edge guidelines. Then fold on the center line and use the handles of your scissors to smooth and press the fold until nice and flat.
Write a message inside the card, pop it in an envelope (or just tie a ribbon around it like this) and give to your favorite person!
Hope these little beauties make their way to someone you love sometime soon! Bonus points if you present them with some fresh flowers — I'm thinking that would totally take it to the next level. And don't forget to pin or bookmark these free printable cards for Mother's Day (or any day) so you can find them whenever you need them. Happy making! xoxo

Ubud is the mature sister of Kuta. The souvenir shops look like little boutiques, the restaurants are more fancy and there are lots of small bars playing Balinese or lounge music. This city became known amongst the big crowd because of the book and film Eat, Pray, Love. Locals call it the cultural heart of Bali and you don't have to get bored here, that's for sure. Ubud is the first city we visited on Bali. And the difference with the islands of Java and Sumatra is immense. First of all the temples on every corner is in Hindu style instead of the many mosques, also the roundabouts are decorated with 4 meter high krishna statues. Ubud and Bali have a different atmosphere, and we find it no surprise that Bali is one of the most popular holiday spots on earth.
We've been to Ubud several times during our stay in Bali. It is easy to reach from any other place on the island. Taxi's are quite expensive so it is cheaper to take the Perama bus which connect the main points of interest of Bali for a reasonable price. Better book a day before to ensure a place in this bus.
Ubud has plenty of restaurants, and you can get almost everything you want. We really enjoyed the tapas at restaurant Barcelona, where they serve great patatas bravas. You'll feel like you're in Spain. The excellent (and not even that expensive) steak at Cafe des Artistes is something you have to try! It is a really nice restaurant with a great atmosphere where they serve fantastisch food. For good Indonesian good, just visit one of the Warung. Their food is always good. And for a nice breakfast you have to go to Poopy, especially the panini's are really tasteful.
We stayed at Pande Permai at Jalal Monkey Forest and really liked it here. We payed 225.000 Rupian for a standard room with fan. The room is spacious, clean (they clean your room everyday) with a nice bathroom with hot shower. Breakfast is included and they have 2 pools which are a real treat after a day walking around and sweating like a pig. The location is quite nice to. Close to the shops, restaurants and the Monkey Forest. You don't even have to go to the monkeys because they will come by and pay you a visit in the morning when they return to the 'forest' coming back from their midnight stroll.
** You can find them on booking.com
The market in Ubud is not only a great place to do some shopping for souvenirs and clothing, but also a nice place to visit early in the morning. From 5 am till about 8 am the locals come here do their shopping. They buy flowers for the offerings, fruits & vegetables, fish & chickens, all fresh! When the morning market is about to end, the sweepers clean the place and the tourists take over. When you want to buy souvenirs, go and buy them early. Balinese are very superstitious and believe that their first sale will bring them luck. You will be able to do some good bargaining!
Visiting the monkey Forest can be hilarious. Marije knew from last time not to buy bananas because as soon as the monkeys see you buying them, they will jump on you and won't leave you alone until you are out of bananas. Knowing this, it is great fun to sit down for a while and watch people getting harassed by the monkeys. We thought we were being smart by not bringing a backpack, but just hold a bottle of water in our hand and put the camera on our neck, because you never know how smart they are and what they try to steel. And we found out that the greedy ones aren't only after bananas, they steel your water to! We didn't put up a fight for it and let the monkey have it. It was quite funny to see how he knew to remove the cap and drink from the bottle. Besides watching the monkeys, the 'forest' itself is nice to see as well. It is worth the 40.000 Rupiah entrance fee.
What else is there to do? Well Ubud is famous for it's beautiful rice terraces. Near Tegallalang there is a beautiful green stairway which is free to enter. It can be a bit busy so it is best to go here early in the morning. There are some nice temples close by you can visit like Pura Tirta Empul or go for a walk at the Ridge Walk. The signs tell you that the walk is 2 kilometers one way, you can drink something at the cafe and walk the same way back. Or you can continue your walk and walk 6 kilometers more to end up in Ubud again. The nearby Goa Gajah temple did not make a big impression on us.

RESIDENTS and community groups across the Southside joined forces to tackle 'The Beast from The East' and Storm Emma last week.
South Dublin County Council deployed their full fleet of gritters and ploughs to clear the roads for residents. Over 80 tonnes of salt and grit were applied over 700km of road space within a 24-hour period, according to their Facebook page.
Gardaí from Crumlin and Sundrive Road delivered 220 meals to the elderly in Dublin 12 and appealed to locals to check in on the elderly and vulnerable in the community.
In Palmerstown, the Order of Malta-Palmerstown Unit put their community support plan into action. Their premises on Manor Road remained open during the storm for those in need.
One of the biggest concerns during the snowstorm was the risk it posed to the lives of the homeless. Cherry Orchard FC provided an emergency overnight shelter for those in need of a roof over their heads.
The Peter McVerry Trust had 106 beds allocated at their Extreme Cold Weather Service in their South Dublin inner city sports centre on February 28. However, 30 people refused beds on one of the coldest nights of the storm.
"The Housing First Street Intake Team managed to encourage a number of people sleeping rough to come in off the streets," the charity said in a statement.
"However, 16 people in the city centre and 14 in the Dublin region were engaged and supported but declined to come into the emergency shelter."
The DSPCA warned pet owners to care for their animals in the cold weather, advising to keep all dogs indoors. Tallaght residents were outraged after a dog was found lying dead in the snow, according to Dublin Live.
Meanwhile, My Lovely Horse Rescue travelled across South Dublin to deliver hay to horses in the area. They braced the cold to deliver supplies in Bluebell, Ballyfermot, Clondalkin and Rathfarnham.
The owner of Fitzpatrick Castle Hotel, Killiney, Eithne Fitzpatrick, praised her team as they took up residence at the hotel to ensure it remained open for business.
Staff across the hotel stayed at the castle in order to welcome guests and maintain facilities.
Ms Fitzpatrick said: "We had guests staying and it was vital for us to maintain a full service. We would like to take this opportunity to thank our staff for their support."
The Dublin Midlands Hospital Group which represents Tallaght Hospital, St James's Hospital, St Luke's Radiation Oncology Network and the Coombe Women & Infants University Hospital, among others, said they had cancelled electives and outpatient appointments last week.
"Hospitals will be in touch with patients to reschedule the appointments as soon as possible," they stated.
"Emergency services and all essential planned services for cancer, renal and antenatal care are continuing and staff have been presenting to work to care for patients despite the extraordinary conditions."
The hospital group also acknowledged the support of the Defence Forces and Civil Defence in assisting with emergency transportation of patients and staff when requested.
However, there was local anger after a series of incidents in Tallaght that included the burning out of a number of cars.
Cllr Charlie O'Connor (FF) said that the incidents which took place in the Dublin South West area were not indicative of the good people of Tallaght and must be condemned.
Gardai have launched an investigation in relation to criminal damage to several vehicles that had been abandoned by their owners at the height of the storm.
According to one report, locals witnessed a gang of people drive the cars through the snow before lighting them on fire and fleeing the scene.
"This mindless criminality were the actions of a group but what is most important to recognise in the face of such crime, is the response from our community in the hours that followed," Cllr O'Connor said.
"Whether it was families bringing tea to gardaí on patrol for the remainder of the night or young people calling in on fearful elderly neighbours who live alone, let there be no doubt that this behaviour is not indicative of the honourable, hard working people I know living in our area."
Meanwhile, the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection advised that a Jobs Week Careers & Education Fair scheduled to take place at Tallaght Stadium on Tuesday, March 6, has been postponed.
It will be rescheduled for a later date.

David Goldblatt and the Image of South Africa (2005)
(an excerpt)
Intersections is what might be termed David Goldblatt's soul-reckoning with post-apartheid South Africa, his native country. Building on more than five decades of demanding documentary initiatives, the project is both a culmination and a new direction for Goldblatt, particularly in the embrace of color and digital printing technologies. Both as a statement about the initial aftermath of the apartheid era, and as a prognosis about the future of a country whose social history is profoundly traumatized, the work is a compendium of markings and indices, some small and some monumental, some narrow and some sweeping. This compendium includes densely layered urban vistas, panoramas of remote countrysides, plaques, tablets, plaster and tin, glass and fiber, walls, rooftops and thresholds, signs and directives, words in granite, words in paint and ink, dirt and stone and headstones and tombstones, piles and strewn configurements, and in the midst: municipal workers held in the grip of their own new and transfixing authority. I could go on for some time with this kind of recombinant list—and it would be just as close and just as poor a claim on the photographs as whatever fully-formed sentences I might write, with their subjects and predicates and action words.
The premise of Intersections is a certain preoccupation with the fragment: what happens, Goldblatt asks, when informationally dense observations are allowed to search one another in controlled ways? What sorts of narratives emerge when differential attention to territories, persons, structures and ruins are overlaid into a single phenomenon—the photograph? What is it then to combine these image into the larger modulated events of a book and an exhibition? What is their status as social evidence? How to understand the resulting clarities and opacities, specificities and ambiguities as testimony?
As his title suggests, Intersections conceives of photographs as sites of inter-crossing meanings—communal, national, ecological and occasionally personal. In a fundamental sense, the photograph for Goldblatt is a constant exchange between what an image manifests and what it points to outside of itself, its exergue. Something like Paul Strand, with whom he shares an attitudinal affinity, Goldblatt's document trades on the ways that social insight through pictures is at the same time fast and restless, a matter of the low-grade frictiveness that exists between photographs' arrestedness and the change to which arrestedness constantly refers. Like Strand, Goldblatt operates through what rhetoricians call paralipsis, or speaking through discerning withdrawals and omissions in information. The outer, nameable content of Goldblatt's vision defers steadfastly to a contemplative purposiveness, a type of attentive receptivity whose best analogue is silence—silence met, and silence practiced. Acting with a quiet proneness to the evidentiary potential of all things, including absence, Goldblatt's challenge is to control the associative consequences of what we call "the observable."
Or to put the point somewhat differently, Goldblatt's pictures do not cooperate very well with theories of what picture-testimony is meant to look like. His vision treats photographs not as revelations or annunciations but as valences, encounters with the things of the world in various states of bond-formation. As such, the pictures are taciturn and at the same time driven, exclamatory and also reticent, restless and heavy, questing and introverted. They appropriate for documentary purposes a strategy usually associated with abstraction, namely to move the audience to the limits of language, and to ask simultaneously what the verbal "sees" and what the non-verbal "says" from that position. For Goldblatt this does not mean making documentary pictures that abandon narrative—on the contrary, the stories that emerge from the pictures and the captioning information are critical to his project, particularly in the book form (published by Prestel in 2005). Goldblatt's problem—and his achievement—is to fold narrative into a pictorial communicativeness, perhaps a wholeness, that admits both incisive and inchoate names for South Africa's present, and the not-fully-formed imaginations for its future.

Top judge snubs Shilpa's plea
Read more below
- Published 13.01.07
|Shilpa Shetty
New Delhi, Jan. 13: Outgoing Chief Justice Y.K. Sabharwal today confirmed that actress Shilpa Shetty had written to him requesting guidelines to curb motivated obscenity cases against artistes, but clarified that only those without the means to approach the court could seek relief through letters.
Sabharwal, who demits office tomorrow, also talked about other issues he has dealt with in his career and rated his decision on Delhi's sealing drive as the most "difficult".
Shilpa had written to the Chief Justice saying she was being unnecessarily harassed because a lawyer had filed an obscenity case in connection with pictures published in a Tamil eveninger. A Madurai court had issued arrest warrants after she failed to appear before it following summons. She later got the warrant stayed by the high court.
The actress also wrote to the National Commission for Women to help her deal with such frivolous cases.
Sabharwal, who was interacting with reporters at his residence, said only the poor who cannot afford the cost of litigation could knock on the doors of the Supreme Court through letters, not the rich who can fight their cases by "hiring lawyers".
Shilpa, he added, can file a petition.
In a 1984 judgment, the apex court had said that when it was for the rights of the poor, disabled or the ignorant, even a letter could be treated as a petition. Any public-spirited person could highlight violation of rights of such disadvantaged sections in a letter, including postcards and telegrams, addressed to the court, the order said.
After the judgment, a PIL cell was set up to scrutinise all letters addressed to the court or individual judges. The cell would forward the ones it thinks are important to the Chief Justice, who would decide whether they need to be entertained or not.
Talking about his sealing order, Sabharwal said it was a "difficult" ruling, not because of law but because he knew the "suffering" of the people of Delhi.
"I was portrayed as if I have no compassion…I do no believe in humanitarian grounds," said the judge who withstood all pressures, including from the government, to stand firm on sealing residential premises that were being used for unauthorised commercial purposes. "If there is a law it has to be implemented," he added.

You are calling out for 9 wireless access points along with 1 switch. Do you have a preferred reseller that you'd like to receive a quote through? March 24, 2017

Are you open to alternatives to Dell and D-Link? Is the school adding onto an existing network of those manufacturers? How many devices connect to the network and are there specific features that the firewall and switches must have? March 30, 2016

Swiss Army Knife of Apps – Is there a place for mobile apps that deliver diverse business functionality?
In mobile apps, there is no right or wrong when it comes to having one app that covers many functions or smaller separate apps. Each app opportunity needs to be assessed from the user perspective to understand what the user is trying to achieve (their gains) and what their current challenges are (their pains). Using the 5 Key Success Factors (KSF) for mobile apps, the UX / UI factor needs to be assessed to determine what functions the app should include to drive adoption and engagement and whether the user journeys make sense to have all functions in one app.
Generally speaking, smaller apps that deliver one to four specific functions mean the user journey is very clear and intuitive to the user, creating an enhanced UX. By focusing on specific key journeys the information displayed is relevant and contextual to what the user is trying to achieve and not diluted by information/feature overload. Bigger apps are at risk of doing too many functions that confuse the user. Examples of successful companies that have smaller more specific apps rather than one large app include –
- Aviva – deliver a suite of apps for a range of different business functions such as life insurance, health insurance, fitness trackers and more.
- Google- also has a suite of apps such as calendar, mail, maps, docs, translate and more.
In recent years, changes to the iOS and Android designs have seen a best practice emerge of a tabbed navigation bar at the bottom of the app. This generally indicates that an app should have a smaller number of core functions that are always accessible from any screen, rather than the older 'side' menus where lots of information can be stored. Ideally only secondary information should be made available from a 'more' option on the bottom tab bar.
It is also important to remember that apps are not websites and they should not recreate all of the features a website has. Apps are better used to ease users into particular journeys.
From the view of the technology KSF, larger apps are likely to create more QA effort – for every update that is made, more regression testing is required.
Most often developing smaller, more specific apps will help deliver value to end users over monolithic apps that perform many functions. Where required, a suite of apps can be created, where two or more apps, each performing defined functions, can be integrated together. Fundamental to making any decision on monolithic vs more task specific apps, is looking at the end user and intended use case to weigh up trade offs to decide on the best approach. Inevitably, the best user experience will be the driver behind adoption and delivering returns for the business; so make sure you start there.

West Lothian gents suffered a shock horror start to their Premier League campaign with the seven times previous champions crashing to a 13 shot defeat (84-71) on home territory to newly promoted West of Scotland.
The new boys on the block could well have been overawed by entering the lion's den to face the high profile gladiators that populate the Inveralmond Stadium but it was them that did the mauling and fully deserved to bask in the glory of a winners applause.
West Lothian did fire on two of their four cylinders with winning performances served up by the rinks skipped by Craig Moss and James Speirs but flat batteries on the rinks skipped by Neil Speirs and Mark Allison were severely punished. Even so the stuttering home team were still in a winnable position entering the third and final phase and just four shots adrift but the expected charge to victory failed to materialise with the saddened home support forced to witness a further nine shot capitulation. The phase scorings being; 25-23; 23-29; 23-32 while the end count was 46/38 in favour of the visitors.
The visitors landed a major blow to the morale of the home side with their rink skipped by S O'Donnell dishing out 25-12 pasting of icon figure Neil Speirs and his front-three of Bryan Cooper, Connor McKendrick, and Des Hagart. The home rinks 9-1 collapse when the chips were down on the final phase doesn't make good reading for a rink expected to deliver wins on their home carpet.
Mark Allison and his rink of Ian Drysdale, Raymond Logan, and Cameron Greer also suffered an uncomfortable time of it having only managed to register shots on six of the 21- ends en-route to a damaging 28-12 defeat from Grier McDougall.
Craig Moss delivered a heads up performance to skip George Sneddon, Blair Mackie, and Jamie Aitken to a 25-16 win over Jonathan Ross and that result was supported by a 22-15 win for Richard Mark, Jamie Edwards, Gary Orr, and James Speirs over B Glynne. The other results in the A Division were, Elgin 85 Lanarkshire 87; Falkirk 89 Aberdeen 60.
WL get an immediate chance to atone in front of their depressed support this Saturday as they have home environment advantage against albeit stronger formline opposition in the shape of Falkirk. Selectors Bryan Cooper and Neil Speirs bring in Dougie Mitchell for Blair Mackie and have tinkered with the make up of all four rinks. Rink 1. George Sneddon, Dougie Mitchell, Jamie Aitken, Craig Moss (skip). Rink 2. Richard Mark, Connor McKendrick, Gary Orr, James Speirs (skip). Rink 3. Jamie Edwards, Ian Drysdale (cpt), Cameron Greer, Mark Allison (skip). Rink4. Bryan Cooper, Raymond Logan, Des Hagart, Neil Speirs (skip).
Balbardie gents hit the ground running in their home match against Headwell in Division 1 North with wins all four rinks delivering a terrific 67 shot victory (117-50). The rink scores were, Walter McDougall 37 C Watson 13; Mark Bonar 30 JJ Watson 9; Jim Speirs 26 G Martin 12; Ewan Shearer 24 H Delaney 12. Other results; Coatbridge 63 Cumbernauld 89; Fraserburgh 93 Dundee 71. No team has been posted as yet for this weekends visit to Coatbridge.
West Lothian ladies lost 68-51 on their tough visit to East Fine in the East Premier League however their Balbardie counterparts notched up a valuable 65-55 away win over Headwell in Division 1 East. It was a heroic winning performance from the rink of Catherine Lochran, Nan Mitchell, Delia Flannigan and skip Sharon Leitch that tipped the scales with Margo Duff and Kim Ross both suffering minor setbacks. Balbardie entertain Bainfield this weekend while it is an idle one for West Lothian.
West Lothian seniors celebrated a strong away win (74-49) in last weeks visit to Teviotdale in the East B League while Balbardie found it hard going in a 96-40 defeat at East Lothian.

At least 15 monks and five other people were injured in a violent crackdown on striking workers Thursday, after a special military unit was called in to deal with demonstrators outside a Phnom Penh factory. The clash, between demonstrators and troops from Special Command Unit 911, took place after protesters began throwing rocks at soldiers. The soldiers were seen brandishing metal pipes, knives, AK-47 rifles, slingshots and batons, according to rights workers. At least 10 people, including four monks, were subsequently arrested. Rights groups said the deployment of Unit 911 was unprecedented "and signals a disturbing new tactic by authorities to quash what have been largely peaceful protests."

Tens of thousands of workers protested in front of the Ministry of Labor on Monday, after negotiations between labor leaders and the government failed to find a resolution to demands of higher wages in the face of a rising cost of living. (Kong Sothanaith, Phnom Penh)

HOW TO BUILD AN AUTHENTIC BUT SUCCESSFUL Social Media?
The pressure to make it on social media is huge. All today's teenagers want to be is 'famous', business owners are seeking the tools to go viral, automated systems are taking care of your daily tweets, follow-for-follow tricks expand your follower list. But do you need to be someone else to succeed on social media? Would you be the same person if we meet in real life? Would you tell me face-to-face what you posted on Facebook the other day?
In this workshop I tell you how to stand out from the social media cluster, how to use the main social media platforms to build an engaging community not just an anonym follower list, how to enhance your business accounts with your personal ones, and how not to fall into the trap of echoing everyone, automating everything and losing your greatest USP (unique selling point), and that is your authenticity. The workshop also covers some of the most essential tips & tricks to give true power to your Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, G+, LinkedIn and beBee accounts.
WHAT IS PERSONAL BRANDING AND WHY You SHOULD CARE ABOUT YOURS?
My motto when it comes to personal branding is unless you have never made an email account, you either take care of what Google brings up of you, or someone else will.
Today 75% of recruiters are required to search candidates' online presence. Among the 1,000 alike resumés your chances to stand out is getting slimmer and slimmer. And not using social media as your branding tool, and your chance to get noticed, is a terrible mistake and a missed opportunity.
This workshop is literally for anybody and everybody. Whether you want to get THAT job, or planning a career change, or dreaming about opening that cozy coffee shop by the corner, or perhaps already have a business that just needs a little push – without a strong online presence you're cutting your chances. I'll teach you the core of personal branding: how to define your personal brand, how to plan your online strategy, how to think like a brand, how to position yourself in your niche, and will show you how a strong personal brand can lead you to anywhere you want.
Did you know that 90% of people aged between 18-29 sleep with their smartphones? With a 3-second spanning time, with Facebook being the primary source of news for Millennials, with the periodical alerts on the death of newspapers, and with the emerging power of blogging, community journalism, digital storytelling, and social media, understanding the main differences between traditional media and new media is one of the basic needs for anyone who wants to convey a message to an audience.
This 60-min workshop is perfect for University students majoring in Communications, Media or PR, but also for any audience that wants to grasp a better picture of the evolution of media, the traditional and new features of media, the evolving traits of journalism, the power of social media, and the impacts of all these buzz around us.
It never occurred to me that there are people who don't enjoy being under the reflector light. I only started to see that when I stopped dancing and entered the business world. I remember how my colleagues would get more nervous before the Board Meetings and how I was just so excited about them. We both were thinking about the same action item of these meetings: presentations.
Some of us might be more introvert than others, but with a great mindset and some tricks and techniques, you too can join those who are eager to stand up and entertain, educate or inform a group of people without sweaty hands and rushing heartbeats.
What is the first rule? 'They're just cabbage heads.' Expect a workshop filled with practicalities, personal feedback, and actual doing (you can leave your laptop at home), while touching upon such essentials as the importance of non-verbal communications, whether to use a PPT or not, what to do if you get a blackout in the middle of your speech, how to know your speaking points but don't sound like a robot. You'll leave empowered, waiting for your chance to show what you've got.
It's been almost ten years that I decided to leave my well-known and predestined career path behind and start with a blank page again. I was lost and terrified and without much help or guidance. By today, don't believe that we have one calling in life – I have at least 5 that I know of today.
While mainstream HR still cheers for a linear career path (us, women are already starting from the 2nd row), and a resumé without gaps, curves and star education, I am more confident than ever (and I know I am not alone) that this is not sustainable any longer. But changing a career takes guts – and sometimes it's not the right thing to do – but with clear action plans, you can save some sleepless nights to yourself.
During this workshop, I'll tell you how NOT to change a career, why NOT to change a career, and when NOT change a career. I'll teach you some life-saver methods on how to figure out what you want, what are your five main options, how to map your action items, and how not to fall apart in midway.

I happened to end up reading the Confederate Constitution today (yep, I was avoiding real work). In any case, I thought I'd pull some information from it on the Confederate Presidency. Not surprisingly, this bears a lot of similarity to the US Constitution, but I noticed a few fun little points, like the fact that the Confederate President has a 6 year term and wasn't eligible to run again after his term. Here is Article 2 on the office of President:
Section I. (I) The executive power shall be vested in a President of the Confederate States of America. He and the Vice President shall hold their offices for the term of six years; but the President shall not be reeligible. The President and Vice President shall be elected as follows:
(2) Each State shall appoint, in such manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a number of electors equal to the whole number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress; but no Senator or Representative or person holding an office of trust or profit under the Confederate States shall be appointed an elector.
(3) The electors shall meet in their respective States and vote by ballot for President and Vice President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same State with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice President, and they shall make distinct lists of all persons voted for as President, and of all persons voted for as Vice President, and of the number of votes for each, which lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit, sealed, to the seat of the Government of. the Confederate States, directed to the President of the Senate; the President of the Senate shall,in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates, and the votes shall then be counted; the person having the greatest number of votes for President shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of electors appointed; and if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers, not exceeding three, on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President. But in choosing the President the votes shall be taken by States, the representation from each State having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the States, and a majority of all the States shall be necessary to a choice. And if the House of Representatives shall not choose a President, whenever the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the 4th day of March next following, then the Vice President shall act as President, as in case of the death, or other constitutional disability of the President.
(4) The person having the greatest number of votes as Vice President shall be the Vice President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of electors appointed; and if no person have a majority, then, from the two highest numbers on the list, the Senate shall choose the Vice President; a quorum for the purpose shall consist of two-thirds of the whole number of Senators, and a majority of the whole number shall be necessary to a choice.
(5) But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice President of the Confederate States.
(6) The Congress may determine the time of choosing the electors, and the day on which they shall give their votes; which day shall be the same throughout the Confederate States.
(7) No person except a natural-born citizen of the Confederate; States, or a citizen thereof at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, or a citizen thereof born in the United States prior to the 20th of December, 1860, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained the age of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a resident within the limits of the Confederate States, as they may exist at the time of his election.
(8) In case of the removal of the President from office, or of his death, resignation, or inability to discharge the powers and duties of said office, the same shall devolve on the Vice President; and the Congress may, by law, provide for the case of removal, death, resignation, or inability, both of the President and Vice President, declaring what officer shall then act as President; and such officer shall act accordingly until the disability be removed or a President shall be elected.
(9) The President shall, at stated times, receive for his services a compensation, which shall neither be increased nor diminished during the period for which he shall have been elected; and he shall not receive within that period any other emolument from the Confederate States, or any of them.
(10) Before he enters on the execution of his office he shall take the following oath or affirmation:
Sec. 2. (I) The President shall be Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy of the Confederate States, and of the militia of the several States, when called into the actual service of the Confederate States; he may require the opinion, in writing, of the principal officer in each of the Executive Departments, upon any subject relating to the duties of their respective offices; and he shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the Confederate States, except in cases of impeachment.
(2) He shall have power, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to make treaties; provided two-thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the advice and consent of the Senate shall appoint, ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls, judges of the Supreme Court, and all other officers of the Confederate States whose appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by law; but the Congress may, by law, vest the appointment of such inferior officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the courts of law, or in the heads of departments.
(3) The principal officer in each of the Executive Departments, and all persons connected with the diplomatic service, may be removed from office at the pleasure of the President. All other civil officers of the Executive Departments may be removed at any time by the President, or other appointing power, when their services are unnecessary, or for dishonesty, incapacity. inefficiency, misconduct, or neglect of duty; and when so removed, the removal shall be reported to the Senate, together with the reasons therefor.
(4) The President shall have power to fill all vacancies that may happen during the recess of the Senate, by granting commissions which shall expire at the end of their next session; but no person rejected by the Senate shall be reappointed to the same office during their ensuing recess.
Sec. 3. (I) The President shall, from time to time, give to the Congress information of the state of the Confederacy, and recommend to their consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient; he may, on extraordinary occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them; and in case of disagreement between them, with respect to the time of adjournment, he may adjourn them to such time as he shall think proper; he shall receive ambassadors and other public ministers; he shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed, and shall commission all the officers of the Confederate States.
Sec. 4. (I) The President, Vice President, and all civil officers of the Confederate States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for and conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.

The Empire Strikes Back
Widely considered the darkest and most intriguing of the central Star Wars trilogy, The Empire Strikes Back deepens the exploration of mythic themes first essayed in A New Hope.
From its opening amid a besieged Rebel stronghold on the ice planet Hoth to its finale on Bespin, the floating city run by gambler Lando Calrissian, Empire charts Luke Skywalker's travails on the arduous path to becoming a Jedi Knight - a journey that culminates in a punishing face-off with Imperial warlord Darth Vader, and Luke's realisation of the dreadful truth about the fate which befell his father Anakin.
Derived from George Lucas's original story, the screenplay was composed by Leigh Brackett (veteran writer for Howard Hawks and Robert Altman) and Lawrence Kasdan (who soon afterwards established himself as a director with Body Heat and The Big Chill). Together, they produced a psychologically complex piece of epic storytelling, treasurably enhanced by the verbal jousting - and the affecting romance - between Han Solo and Princess Leia.

Reviewer: Phil Pickin
ANYONE who loves the outdoors knows how much the right clothing enhances the experience of being outside observing wildlife and this was part of the thinking behind Country Innovation, a UK-based company that began in 1996.
The founder, Maria Chilvers, began developing the range made from Ventile® 100% cotton fabric developed during the war for RAF crews.
Since then the range of products sold has expanded with many being developed as a result of input from some famous naturalists like Simon King and Bill Oddie. The result is a range of products that are very practical but also help anyone who is looking to observe wildlife and enjoy the outdoor lifestyle, all while remaining as unobtrusive as possible.
With the market place awash with clothing ideal for walkers etc, you find many items are brightly coloured, something that is not ideal when watching wildlife. So it's good to find a range that is aimed at those who want to be less conspicuous without wanting to don camo clothing.
We looked at a couple of the items from the range including the Venture trousers which are made from very soft lightweight fabric, making them ideal for travelling. They are quick drying (something I can vouch for) and easy to wash, ideal qualities for boaters. They feature eight pockets and a side elasticated waist. Articulated knees and a webbing belt are also included.
All of these features are noted by Country Innovation and, having tried these trousers out in the field, I have to agree that these are a cut above others in the price range. The Venture trousers are priced at £55.
We also looked at the Microfleece top which would be ideal as part of layered clothing as it's lightweight, breathable and has flat lock seams. It's wickable and is quick drying after a machine wash and is fitted with a good quality zip which tucks away at the top of the collar. A nice touch that shows Country Innovation's attention to detail.
As with the trousers you have a choice of colours as long as you like green! In keeping with the company's focus on providing clothing to those who spend time in the outdoors, the range is produced in colours that make you as unobtrusive as possible. The Microfleece is priced at £35.
In keeping with their obvious affinity with the natural world, and their aim of helping customers enjoy wildlife and the environment, some items within their range help provide an income to a wildlife charity. A donation is made to the Simon King Wildlife Charity when any Linnet jacket is purchased – an innovative way of supporting a worthy cause while purchasing very well made and effective outdoor clothing.
For more information about any of the items mentioned please visit https://www.countryinnovation.com

I never got the chance to go to a Jewish summer camp. Perhaps I would have liked it. Ah, those summer days… Learning to canoe, meeting new Jewish friends, dodging careening pick-up trucks and paintball fire.
Wait, what?
Two adults and three minors were charged yesterday for three instances of terrorizing kids at Camp Bonim in Pennsylvania over the last month.
Tyler Spencer, 18, was charged with trying to mow down campers with his Ford-350 pickup. His accomplice Mark Trail, 21, is quoted as yelling to campers: "I'm gonna kill you, you fucking Jews." Derogatory, but highly unoriginal. He was also quoted screaming "Go back to where the fuck you came from you goddamn Jews. We don't want you here." While these Jews are from Pennsylvania and Mr. Spencer is from Tennessee, I suppose that's probably not what he meant.
Spencer and Trail were caught only after a hit-and-run in which Spencer broke a camp counselor's leg. No word yet on if their girlfriend, the other adult charged, was caught in the same incident.
Kudos to the police for tracking down the gang. But kudos are also in order for the campers, who were attacked in three separate incidents. If I had been there, I would have called someone to come pick me up after incident number one.

A novelty horn that comes with strings attached
A rare instrument found a new home with Claire Doherty, 11, at the National Folk Festival at the weekend.
On Sunday, the year 6 student from the Blue Mountains entertained passers by with a Stroh violin, which looks like a traditional violin but with a large metal horn attached.
Her father Kerry Doherty said he and Claire spotted the Stroh in the maker's tent at EPIC on Saturday and he paid $1250 for it.
''When [Claire] busks she usually plays an electric violin, but we saw that there and it was so rare, we couldn't resist it, we had to buy it,'' he said.
Simon Daley of The Violin Shop in Curtin, who was working at the festival and sold the Stroh to Mr Doherty and Claire, said he understood the instruments were a novelty item in the 1920s and 1930s.
Instead of the vibrating wooden sound box of an ordinary violin, Stroh violins have an aluminium disk that moves in and out to create sound, and they make a much louder noise than the wooden varieties.
Mr Daley said they were sometimes played in jazz bands or in folk music, but never in classical concerts.
''It's got a very different sound, it's very strident and loud and a little bit harsh,'' he said.
Mr Daley bought the Stroh from an elderly man in Orange a few months ago, who told him the instrument had belonged to an uncle who had played with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, ''but for some reason also had this bizarre mechanical contraption''.
He said he was glad to see Claire become the Stroh's next owner.
''She played so well and she does lot of busking anyway, and they are just such visually appealing instruments,'' he said. ''They asked if I could do a better price and I did, because I just wanted it to go to her.''

Even more beautiful than the cherry blossoms gracing the National Mall are the 4,000 credit union faces attending the 2012 GAC, CUNA Chairman Harriet May said during the CUNA Annual General Meeting on Monday.
"The words you share with legislators can't be overshadowed by bankers' ads," she said. "Be the ones [Congress] can't say 'no' to."
During her final appearance as CUNA chairman, May praised the leadership of CUNA President Bill Cheney and lauded CUNA for:
• Promoting financial reform. CUNA's advocacy efforts helped to ensure that only three credit unions fall under the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's (CFPB) jurisdiction. "And the agency knows we're the ones protecting consumers," she said.
• Convincing Congress credit unions weren't the cause of the nation's financial crisis—but they can be the solution to it.
|Former CUNA Chairman Tom Dorety presents outgoing CUNA Chairman Harriet May with a lapel pin in honor of her service.
• Cultivating strong relationships with members of Congress. For the first time, credit unions were called to testify on a banker's bill, she said. "We now have members of Congress who stand up for credit unions."
• Maintaining credit unions' tax exemption.
• Leading the charge on the interchange fee debate. "The grassroots outpouring was so significant that we were designated as a force to be reckoned with," May said. "We showed that we were watching."
Credit unions are rising, and their future is bright, Cheney added. But challenges remain, including the crushing regulatory burden and the need to improve credit unions' operating environment.
"The current regulatory burden isn't sustainable," he said. "How can credit unions focus on members when they spend so much time and money on compliance? We have to reduce this burden—and we will."
Cheney urged credit unions to attend NCUA's listening sessions and share their concerns directly with NCUA Chairman Debbie Matz.
Although May retired from GECU of El Paso, she's not quitting credit unions. "I'll be back. And when I am, I'll want to see that you've remained diligent on member financial education and that everyone knows why we do what we do. Go forth and fight for credit unions."

Game Review: Rock Of The Dead
After seeing trailers and gameplay at E3 this year, I was really excited for Rock of the Dead. It's a rails shooter with a twist. Instead of a gun, players use plastic instruments to fight monsters. Each monster has a set of notes over their heads that when played defeats them. Larger monsters will pop up with a highway of notes more akin to a classic music game like Rock Band or Guitar Hero. The better you play, the more damage is done. Bosses and mini bosses have a combination of highway and random note patterns, depending on if you need to attack or block.
The game starts out with a kid performing for his grandpa in a cemetery when a meteor shower hits. These aren't your ordinary meteors though! They're everywhere and they seem to be bringing the dead back to life, both humans and animals alike. The kid soon realizes that playing his guitar (or drums) makes the zombies explode and sets off to save the day.
The music is probably my favorite part of the game and it fits the game well. It features heavy metal versions of classical music as well as some hard rock favorites. However, unless you're fighting one of the larger monsters, the music seems to have no correlation to what notes are played. This makes it a little difficult to focus on the correct notes.
Also adding to the difficulty of getting notes right, there were times when I was attacking one zombie and I'd hit a wrong note. Suddenly I had to switch to a different zombie and finish it off before I could start over on the first zombie as the game assumed I was fighting the second one instead. On the other hand, the drums were a little easier. If you are fast enough on all the small monsters you can just hit every drum pad as fast as you can. This will basically kill everything very very fast. When dealing with the highway, you still need to hit them in a certain order, but extra hits on the drum pads will not hurt you.
The game does feature two-person multiplayer, which one would think should help. Unfortunately, there appears to be a number of bugs with this. Probably the most prominent came up when fighting the larger monsters with highways. When playing with a second person, the guitar is no longer detected properly. The game seems to need to be recalibrated. Other problems encountered were minor in comparison. The notes over the zombies are color coded for each player, so as to not get confused on who's attacking which monster. However, that didn't stop the guitar from being able to play the drum notes and vice versa. This caused for more confusion when wrong notes were hit.
Overall, Rock of the Dead was rather disappointing. It did have some good points, though. Which is why I have to give the game a "Rent It." As long as you stick with single player, the game is worth at least trying, even if it's for nothing else than the humorous storyline.

Project Spotlight: Harper Creek Permeability Study
Host organization: Peterborough GreenUp
Student: Emily Amon (Environmental Sciences & Studies)
The project: Harper Creek is an ecologically sensitive area in the south end of Peterborough, and the environmental stress it faces is likely to increase as development projects like the nearby Shorelines Casino go ahead. One issue associated with this new development is the increased rainwater runoff the creek will have to accommodate as more land gets built on or paved over.
Emily's project studied this issue by focusing on water runoff patterns in the Harper Creek subwatershed. She integrated numerous data sets to map the watershed, taking into account parameters like elevation, slope, and soil permeability to determine what areas of the watershed most needed to be protected from development, or have rain gardens installed to increase permeability and reduce runoff.
Research questions: What areas of the Harper Creek subwatershed most need soil permeability projects (rain gardens) installed in order to reduce the levels of stormwater entering Harper Creek?
Methods: Emily analyzed various GIS datasets describing the Harper Creek subwatershed. She obtained these datasets from Trent's mapping data centre, the South Central Ontario Orthographic Project, the City of Peterborough's mapping department, and the Otonabee Region Conservation Authority.
Results: Emily's research identified a number of stormwater hotspots. She also used the data she collected to suggest six locations within the watershed which need permeability projects or other infrastructure to address high levels of stormwater runoff. Her results are captured in the maps on the right, which she created.
Impacts: Emily's research is timely and important, though it is too early to say what impact it might have on the ecological health of Harper Creek in the long term.
In February 2017 Emily presented to Peterborough City Council on the progress of her research.
In March, Emily's project won the Academic Achievement in a Community Setting Award at our Celebration of Community Research. Congratulations, Emily!

didn't mean it how it sounded! :( i just think that it could become annoying in multiplayer (like when people constantly use grip/push on nar shadar streets etc), but if you wanna do it then go for it, forget what i think! could be good in sp, if you had lots of enemys i guess its possible, i don't know how to do it. maybe need a mod that sets peoples maximum health to the lowest damage that the lightsaber can do? or the other way, increase the attacking power of the lightsaber?[INDENT][COLOR=Red]Marker0077 EDIT:[/COLOR] Edited due to profanity which is prohibited in most of GamingForums. If you want to be a potty mouth, take it to The Melee where profanity is permitted.
READ THE GAMINGFORUM RULES, they're there for a reason.[/INDENT]
I mostly think of the duels, that they would get a lot more intense that way, that you'd have to be VERY good to last just a few rounds. I mostly only play with bots since I don't like playing on the internet, and, well, the bots are very, very bad fighters(mostly) and it would definately make it more entertaining that way...
But, you're right, it would probably be boring in the long run, or after awhile...But, then again it might be very addictive! I mainly just wanna find out...
your right, it would be more challenging, go for it! can't be too bad to edit how much health you start with and permanently enable dismemberment!
Well, I don't know what tool to use, do you?
not sure, i'm really only just understanding skininng and modeling!
I'm not sure wat u cud use but i have an idea :) u need a mod that in duels, u start with only 1 health and dismemberment at 100. Although if u got 1 health and u got pushed off and fell below, thus hurting yourself, u would die which would be the most pathetic thing in the world!!! :uhm: Perhaps a saber touch-sudden death mod? :confused:
I just found out how to do it: Simply use JediPLUS 3.3 and editing the damage the lightsaber does. The only problem is that the bots act like they used to before, so it's pretty boring...
