D. KROGH (California) on October 22, 2010
We purchased these jackets for our horse club year end awards and everyone loved them. They are easy to embroidery, warm and dry. We will definitely purchase them again in the future.
R. BOONE (Virginia) on January 13, 2010
Excellent - I got a new one to replace one I've had for years.
R. KILDUFF (Connecticut) on March 27, 2013
Nice jacket,great price,fast shipping. Only problem is that it is a little short in the sleeves so if you're not sure between med. and lg. then go with lg.
L. O'CONNOR (New York) on September 10, 2011
This is my 3rd Preformer jacket I have purchased for my husband and I. I love these jackets...they are very comfortable and pratical. The only problem I have with this order is that I got the same sizes I always have and the fit is a little snug. Mine isn't that bad (bc my old jackets are a little big on me) but my husbands jacket is a little short in the sleeves and slighty tight in the body. Not sure if I had gone a size up that they would have been a better fit but didn't think I had to because the previous jackets were fine.

Please note that we cannot guarentee these dates as we use Royal Mail as a guide and cannot take responsibility for any delays which occur as a result of circumstances beyond our control.
Do your chocolates contain nuts?
Many of our chocolates contain nuts. Because we are a mixed-production facility everything that we make may contain traces of nuts. We cannot guarantee that anything we produce is nut-free.
Do your chocolates contain dairy products such as milk, cream or butter?
Milk and White chocolate both contain milk solids. Our truffles are all made using fresh cream. Some of our products contain butter. Because we are a mixed production facility we cannot guarantee that any of our chocolates do not contain traces of any dairy products.
Do your products contain soya?
We use an emulsifier called soya lecithin, which is derived from soya beans, in our chocolates.
Do your products contain Wheat?
We have now phased out the biscuit that sat atop our Amaretto, the new style is made with white chocolate and chopped hazelnuts. Lessiter's is now a gluten free factory.
Do your products contain Egg?
We currently have only one chocolate which contains egg - the zabajone truffle.
At present we have only one chocolate which is not suitable - the coffee cream. This chocolate uses shellac in the production of the coffee bean which sits on top of it. The coffee cream appears in some of our chocolate assortments. All of our other products are suitable for vegetarians.
Unfortunately, we are not currently recruiting
Unfortunately, we are not equipped to deal with requests such as this for online orders and so we are not able to create bespoke gift boxes for individuals.

If you are able to visit our shop, however, we are able to fill a small box or bag with your own choice of chocolates from our deli counter. Unfortunately, this only applies to the fresh deli counter and customers who take the goods on the spot.
Unfortunately, we do not offer tours of our factory owing to Health and Safety regulations.
Lessiter's has a nominated charity policy. Although this no longer means that we are able to help such wide range of local charities and community groups, it does mean that we are able to provide better support to the people that we are helping. We endeavor to support either a local charity, or a local branch of a major charity.
If you would like to be considered as a nominated charity at our next review then please contact us with details of your charity and the contact information for the relevant person.

a burning desire to be with someone who you find very attractive and extremely special. My heart broke when I found out my crush was seeing another person.
Jun 4, 2003
add a video
2. | Crush | ||
a painful experience, very common amoung middle schoolers (and high schooler's and even adults to a lesser degree) that involves being obsessed with a member of the opposite sex (or the same sex, if u prefer), being attracted to them physically (most common), or emotionally- also called 'puppy love'
also: the object of this affection Verb: crushing He has a huge crush on her.
Her crush is hot, but unworthy of her affections. I'm totally crushing on him. |
3. | crush | ||
1. the act of falling hard for someone even though it isn't love yet
2. a precursor to love 3. an amazing thing that gives you feelings of nerves and excitement whenever you see them 1. i am so crushing on that new guy in my french class.
2. before we went out, i had a crush on him for almost a year! 3. i can't concentrate in that class. my crush is too powerful. |
4. | Crush | ||
A kick-ass bottled soda pop made in orange, grape, and strawberry flavors. Comes in six-packs. I drank nine bottles of Crush today.
5. | crush | ||
a very sad feeling, falling inlove with someone who will never love u :'( I feel crushed, by my crush.
6. | crush | ||
When you have a crush on someone it means you have developed a strong desire for another person. Eventually it may grow into true love or your feelings might wear away so don't jump into conclusions and mistake a silly crush for love. A crush might make you get butterflies in your stomach, shy, and blushful. Your crush can also cause you to do silly things like stalking him,figuring out his/her sceduled classes, looking at his/her myspace a million times a day (even reading all his/her comments), collecting every piece of information you can on him/her, and other obsessive things. There is a reason why a crush is called a crush though. It might hurt to find out your crush is taken--OUCH! But if you are truely still into this person DON'T let that stop you. There is still hope for the future. Until your desired lover is single again try developing a frienship! That way you'll always be an option. Good luck! ( :
Ps-Don't go OD on the stalker thing. Not only is it a turnoff--it's also pretty darn creppy... Sometimes in school when you see you're crush walking down the hall the sounds of noisey fuckers come to a silence and everyone one fades away from your sight. Now all your see and hear is your crush glowing with a aurora like a beautiful god/godess.
7. | Crush | ||
A person you find to be attractive (physically, mentally, whatever). Also known as 'puppy love'. Saki: What's with the flamethrower, Vega?
Vega: My crush is dating another woman. So I went home and I got my flamethrower. Now where's that bitch Brianna? |

High school hockey: Mayfield loses Baron Cup III, 4-3 (with video)
Mayfield had seen this all before, locked in overtime at Brooklyn with the Baron Cup III championship on the line.
Sunday, however, this story did not have the same punctuation it did in 2011 in that scenario for the Wildcats.
Alex Zielke's goal with 59 seconds left in overtime gave North Canton Hoover a 4-3 victory and denied Mayfield's bid for a third Baron Cup III title in four years in a well-played final.
Two years ago, the Wildcats (21-10-2) generated a 3-on-1 break in the extra session to defeat Orange and hoist the hardware on Greater Cleveland's most hallowed ice.
This time, they were not as fortunate.
"It stinks — there are no other words to describe it," Mayfield coach Steve Bogas said. "We worked our tails off and just didn't get the bounces tonight. I don't know what else to say."
Barely into the final minute of overtime, Zielke got his stick down on a loose puck at the left faceoff circle. The Vikings (24-7) displayed a propensity throughout to try their luck top shelf, and that's exactly where the sophomore went, going to the top right corner with a wrister.
"I didn't really see the initial pass to (Zielke)," Wildcats standout senior and first-team all-Blue Division defenseman Dom Horvath said. "They just got a lucky bounce in our defensive zone, they capitalized on it, and that's the only way you're going to win in overtime."
Mayfield, looking to become the ninth Greater Cleveland program to win three Baron Cups, went into the third period down, 3-2. With 5 minutes, 7 seconds to go in the second period, Hoover's Zach Lawson created a breakaway opportunity through the heart of the neutral zone, skated in, went to the backhand and finished a look five-hole. Continued...
The Wildcats improved in the defensive zone as the third wore on, including a couple timely saves from sophomore goaltender Danny Wilson to keep his team within striking distance.
Midway through the period, Mayfield went on the power play after a Vikings too-many-men-on-the-ice penalty. Senior Alex Baele skated into his offensive zone from the left side, did well with a deke between the circles but was forced off the puck. Horvath took care of the rest, getting his stick down in front to tie it at 3.
"I wasn't really looking to score there," Horvath said. "I was just trying to get the puck into the zone. We were just trying to get something going. We couldn't get that much offense going in the third period, so to get one late was a huge momentum swing.
"Unfortunately, we just couldn't keep it going in overtime."
Shots were even at 11 apiece in OT, but Hoover generated more quality looks, starting with a Brad Harcourt wrister 90 seconds in and punctuated by Zielke's tally.
The Wildcats were proud to make it to Baron Cup Sunday once more, despite the fact this extra session didn't end as well as the last one in a Baron Cup III final on this ice.
"We had a great team this year, a very close team," Horvath said. "We had a great season — first place in the Blue East, top seed in the Baron Cup. Obviously, winning the Baron Cup would have been just as good, but we can't be too upset about our season. We had a great season."

Since that time, the old school field at 2 Bulldog Drive has seen dozens of volunteers come to help the farm, which grows seafood and vegetables together for maximum nutrition and efficiency, to get up and running and to establish a name for itself in the community.
In just five months, Inner-City Aquaponics and its owner, Ryan Cox, have already partnered with numerous schools in and around the Rossville area and are now in the process of adding a new $80,000 installation.
Students from Ridgeland High School's Future Farmers of America club got out of classes for the afternoon to help celebrate at the farm, where many will be working and volunteering over the course of the year. Cox has established programs with Ridgeland High and other area schools to grow worms, vegetables and produce in a cooperative effort, which he hopes will provide job training for students' future careers in agriculture.
"You'll have a premiere aquaculture program unlike any other in the country," Cox told the students.
The high-schoolers toured the site of a future 5,000-gallon catfish hatchery, which Cox pledged to start excavating the very next day. The 250-foot-by-20-foot tank will be used exclusively for the breeding of catfish and will be seeded with 36 breeding pairs.
Students from partner schools will use the catfish eggs and hatchlings in their own academic and aquaponic programs. The more mature fish will be gathered by the students and enjoyed for supper, or returned to the farm to grow out in one of the aquaponic vegetable-producing tanks.
"This time next year, they will have already been harvested," Cox said of the hundreds of catfish he expects the hatchery to produce. He also has plans to expand and add tanks for prawns and shrimp next summer, once the catfish are well-established. Five to ten new jobs are expected to be created by the expansion, most of which will likely be held by students in the cooperative programs.
The catfish hatchery is an$80,000 investment for Cox, who is fronting the entire bill for the project with no aid from local city or county governments.
Cox seems most excited about the opportunity to work with the next generation's potential leaders in the local food industry. He hopes to inspire them to be passionate about aquaculture and agriculture, and to have a hands-on experience with the source of their own nutrition.
Cox echoed 16-century French philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau by stating to the assembled local leaders, teachers, students and families, "It is not our job to teach our children the sciences. It is our job to give them a taste of them."

This week's Limited Time Magic celebration includes an extra-limited time component, with a football-themed pre-parade running before the Celebrate a Dream Come True Parade from last Friday through yesterday, featuring Football Star Goofy, cheerleaders, Referees Chip and Dale, and local youth football champions. Today, there will be a special ticker-tape parade down Main Street, U.S.A. featuring Joe Flacco of the Super Bowl XLVII Champion Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens held on in a blackout-delayed game to defeat the San Francisco 49ers 34 to 31.
The remaining portion of the celebration is "Souper Bowls" of bisque representing the two teams, being offered February 1–9 at Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe. San Francisco is represented by Tomato Basil Bisque, while Baltimore is represented by Lobster Bisque.

Disney has announced details for one of the previously announced Limited Time Magic events. True Love Week, which takes place February 11–17 at Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resorts. The event extends the celebration of Valentine's Day to a whole week of romance-themed events, meals, merchandise, and more.
Cinderella Castle's evening color lighting in pink, red, lavender, and blue will be themed and synced to a musical medley. "True Love" banners, heart-shaped signage, and sweetheart- themed decorations will fill the Magic Kingdom.
Special photo locations will be set up, including Cinderella's glass coach by the new Castle Courtyard wall, hearts and flowers decorating Cinderella's wishing well, and special decor in the Rose Garden. Disney princes will join their princesses at character greeting locations, including Prince Phillip, Flynn Rider, and Prince Naveen. Even Bert joins Mary Poppins.
Artist Point, The Wave…of American Flavors, Hollywood Brown Derby, and Yachtsman Steakhouse are offering specially created prix fix dinner menus for two.
Limited-edition Valentine-themed pins, plushes, new apparel, and Vinylmations will be available in select locations.
Disney is also using the week to promote many of its services, including the Disney Florist; Senses, a Disney Spa at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort; and Disney Weddings.
Similar in-park offerings will appear at Disneyland Park the same week for their Limited Time Magic of the week.
As always, you can find out the latest Limited Time Magic promotions on the Disney Parks Blog, at the Limited Time Magic website, via Twitter hashtag #LimitedTimeMagic, or here in the weekly Update.

Last week, we reported about a letter to Walt Disney Company Chairman and CEO Robert Iger from Congressman Edward Markey (D–Massachusetts) related to privacy concerns with Disney's MyMagic+ program. We took a quick look at Disney's policies online, analyzed them in relation to Markey's questions, and noted that "while the Senator's concerns are certainly reasonable and relevant, Disney has already put restrictions in place to keep the system safe and secure."
Iger, however, took a more combative stance in his response to Markey. In a letter last Monday, Iger was indignant. "We are offended by the ludicrous and utterly ill-informed assertion in your letter dated January 24, 2013, that we would in any way haphazardly or recklessly introduce a program that manipulates children, or wantonly puts their safety at risk."
Iger continued: "It is truly unfortunate and extremely disappointing that you chose to publicly attack us before taking the time to review our policies and/or contact us for information, which would have obviated the need for your letter. Had you or your staff made the slightest effort, you would have found most of the answers to your questions already existing and were publicly available online at http://corporate.disney.go.com/corporate/pp.html and https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/faq/my-disney-experience/privacy-policy/."
While the response may seem a little out of character for Iger, it should be noted that Disney's Executive Vice President and Chief Communications Officer is Zenia Mucha, former communications director for both former Sen. Alfonse D'Amato (R-NY) and former New York Governor George Pataki. Mucha is well-versed in the back-and-forth posturing of politicians and likely determined that it was the most appropriate response for the company.
We'll have to wait to see whether there's any follow-up on either side or if the matter is put to rest.

"Hang on to them hats and glasses, 'cause this here's the wildest ride in … prime time"?
Disney's ABC television network has given the go-ahead for production on a pilot for a series called Big Thunder Mountain, based on the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad theme park attraction. The pilot will be written by Jason Fuchs (Ice Age: Continental Drift) and executive produced by Chris Morgan (The Troop).
The quick pitch for the show goes: "When a brilliant, late 19th century New York doctor and his family are given a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to relocate to a frontier mining town run by a powerful, but mysterious tycoon, they quickly realize that not everything in Big Thunder is as it seems." While the Disneyland Paris version of the iconic attraction has a backstory featuring mining mogul Henry Ravenswood, the series will more likely be related to the new interactive theming being installed at Walt Disney World, featuring Barnabas T. Bullion.
What will the show actually be like? We'll have to wait to see if and when the pilot is actually completed.

Last Friday, Senior Vice President of Creative Development at Walt Disney Imagineering Tony Baxter announced his retirement after a 47-year career with Disney. While most closely associated with Disneyland Park, Baxter has had his impact on Walt Disney World as well. While working with Marc Davis on redesigning Thunder Mesa for Walt Disney World, Baxter's runaway mine train was selected as the only portion to move forward, which became Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. He was behind the creation of Splash Mountain, and—uniquely to Walt Disney World—Baxter was one of the creative forces behind the original Journey Into Imagination pavilion.
Baxter's letter of resignation is a classy exit for the longtime Imagineer, giving a close look at his philosophy of Imagineering and mapping his transition to an ad hoc consulting role. "No company is perfect, and like any other corporation Disney has its own politics and challenges," writes Baxter. "We are artists, engineers, managers, filmmakers and musicians. But our company is unique; there is no place like it on earth. We are lucky. At the end of the day, it is my hope that this letter will add to the special culture that I have been privileged to grow in."
We here at MousePlanet thank him for all he's done at Walt Disney Imagineering and wish him much happiness in the next phase of his life.
While the interactive elements of the queue are not yet operational, new props and signage have been added to the upstairs queue, transforming its appearance. Photo by J. Jeff Kober.

These signs suggest many ways in which Barnabas T. Bullion is going to give his employees the raw end of the deal—or in this case, perhaps the dynamite stick. Bullion's portrait (which bears a striking resemblance to newly-retired Imagineer Tony Baxter) has not yet been hung in the queue. Photo by J. Jeff Kober.

There is nothing more heartbreaking than a baby who is born too soon having medical complications that leave them with medical difficulties for life, or worse, that never let them leave the hospital alive. On April 28, I will once again walk to raise money for the March of Dimes. The March of Dimes mission is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality.
MousePlanet readers and MouseStation listeners have helped me to raise nearly $25,000 for this worthy cause over the last seven years. This year, my goal is to raise another $4,000. This year, I am again issuing a special challenge: I will match, dollar-for-dollar, every donation that comes in by the end of February from any MouseStation listener or MousePlanet reader. If it's in by February 28, I'll match it.
You can also walk with me, either in person or virtually, by joining Team MousePlanet and getting your friends and family to contribute! You can go to my fundraising page to sponsor me, or the Team MousePlanet page to join in and walk yourself! Help us to provide a better chance to prevent prematurity and to help those babies that are born prematurely!

…Will you be at Walt Disney World for Princess Half Marathon weekend, February 22–24? If so, please join us for a Team MousePlanet meet-up on Saturday Feb 23 at 6 p.m. in the outside seating area of Pollo Campero at Downtown Disney. Grab some food then eat with us, or just come to say hi. We'll have some MousePlanet goodies to give out, too. The meet is open to Princess Half and 5K participants as well as supporters! Attendees are expected to include Stephanie Wien, Adrienne Vincent-Phoenix, and Lani Teshima.
…The Downtown Disney Marketplace bus station is closed for repaving, making the only stop near Planet Hollywood at Downtown Disney. The Marketplace stop should be back in business on February 25.
…Disney Transportation is beginning a transition to a new bus design and color scheme. The buses sport reflective vinyl patterns to be more visible at night. For a look at the design in both day and night, take a look at the photo tweeted by Disney's Gary Buchanan.
…Today is the third day in the last four that Typhoon Lagoon is closed due to low temperatures.
…If you'd like to try all three flavors of the new "Doofenslurper" drink at Epcot, you won't be able to get all three in the same spot. The three drinks named for Dr. Doofenshmirtz from Phineas and Ferb, topped with passion fruit sorbet foam and served in a souvenir plastic beaker (actually, if you want to be accurate, it's an Erlenmeyer flask) are available in three locations. The frozen blue raspberry drink is only available at Fife and Drum at the American Adventure, frozen strawberry is available at both Fife and Drum and Cool Post at the Africa Outpost area, and frozen lemonade is available at both Cool Post and Promenade Refreshment. If the $8.99 price tag is too high but the beverage sounds interesting, you can get just the slushy drink for $3.99, but in a plain cup and without the passion fruit sorbet foam.
…Long-time Walt Disney World exec George Aguel has been named President and CEO of the Visit Orlando tourism marketing organization. Aguel, a 35-year Disney veteran, has served as senior vice president of Worldwide Sales and Services for Walt Disney Parks and Resorts and senior vice president of Global Corporate Alliances and Operating Participants. He's been frequently honored for his skill and accomplishments at promoting travel and convention services. In his Disney role, he served as chairman of Visit Orlando in 2009 and 2010.

The Royal Family 5K is 93 percent full, the post-5K breakfast is 98 percent full, and the runDisney Kids Races are 91 percent full (dashes sold out, Mickey Mile 72 percent full). ChEAR Squad is 91 percent full overall, with ChEAR Squad Gold 89 percent full and Silver 79 percent full.
…Registration is now open for the 2013 Expedition Everest Challenge. The Challenge is now 85 percent full.

Boston Red Sox manager John Farrell told reporters Monday that Mike Napoli is expected to make his spring training debut Friday and he will play first base.
Napoli ran the bases during the weekend and reported no issues with his hips.
Napoli has a medical condition called avascular necrosis, which can lead to bone death and degeneration. Both of his hips are affected by it.
A former catcher, Napoli has made a fulltime move to first base because of his condition. His three-year, $39 million contract that was agreed to in December was later scaled down to a one-year deal with $5 million guaranteed after his diagnosis was known.
---Texas Rangers right-hander Kyle McClellan had a setback in coming back from shoulder soreness, according to ESPN Dallas.
McClellan, who is competing for the Rangers' No. 5 spot in the rotation, was shut down on Sunday before he could finish warm-ups. He had been out for a week.
McClellan believes his injury is only minor and affects one of his muscles.
---The 2009 World Series ring that the cousin of New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez is selling is a replica, ESPN New York reported Monday.
Yuri Sucart, whom Rodriguez named as helping him use performance-enhancing drugs when he made his admission in 2009, sold the championship ring that Rodriguez gave him as a gift to auctioneer Ken Goldin for an undisclosed amount.
---First baseman Lars Anderson was claimed off waivers from the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday.

We are aware of these users, but unfortunately, IP banning is not the best solution.. it's quite easy to alternate an IP address using proxy servers. The best, and more sustainable long term solution would be to enforce karma points on opening new questions and replying to others. The current software package we are using does not currently support this feature, so we will need to spend some time to develop it and test it before launching it. Please be patient with us! |

Carney added, "When he goes to Camp David, he goes to spend time with his family and friends and relax, not to produce photographs."
Carney said on Wednesday that he had no reaction to Blackburn's comments.
Reporters are not typically permitted to cover Obama's personal activities at the secluded retreat.
The release comes as Obama is advancing a slate of measures he says will prevent gun violence, including reinstituting an assault weapons ban, limiting the size of gun magazines, and requiring background checks on all gun sales. He also signed a series of executive actions relating to gun violence.
While the assault weapons ban has its proponents on Capitol Hill, some members of Congress are skeptical it will pass, considering Republican opposition and wary Democrats who represent conservative districts and states.
Vice President Joe Biden led Obama's gun violence task force convened after the December 14 shooting at an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut.
He acknowledged to reporters after a Thursday meeting with Democrats on Capitol Hill that "Nothing we are going to do is fundamentally going to alter or eliminate the possibility of another mass shooting or guarantee that we will bring gun deaths down." Obama had made similar comments earlier in the month.
The president will take his gun-related platform on the road to Minnesota on Monday.

It is after all difficult, if not impossible, for a man to make considered decisions about clothing while accompanied by a loved one who is convinced that she knows better than he what looks good on him, and which places he should patronize. For nothing can come of that but black suits, or worse.
Always shop alone.


text: I love to run. I am not very fast, but I can go the distance. Just easing back into a nice pace and taking off is the best way to enjoy the miles. I am working to improve my times, but I also make enjoying the running a priority. Besides the obvious health benefits, the best thing about my running expereince has been all of the AMAZING people from all over the world that I have met through my sport. My next four races will take me to three states: Dylan's Dinosaur Stomp 5K in NJ, The Hope for Cope 5K in PA, The Baltimore 10 mi in MD, and the Chicago Half Marathon in IL. It's going to be a great season of road races!!!

Volleyball: Flower Mound eliminated by Colleyville Heritage (web exclusive)
By Justin Thomas, email@example.com
IRVING � Already in the midst of its deepest playoff run in program history, Flower Mound�s volleyball team came oh so close to taking it one step further Monday night before eventually falling short against Colleyville Heritage in the UIL Region I quarterfinals (27-29, 25-22, 25-16, 25-27, 15-10).
The win propels the Lady Panthers to the semifinals where they will face the winner between Southlake Carroll and Lubbock Coronado at 6 p.m. Friday at the Glen Rose ISD Tiger Arena.
In a game full of momentum swings, one of the largest came midway through the second set when Heritage erased a 19-13 margin to win the game.
But in the fifth set, the Lady Panthers claimed the first six points and carried the early lead to the win.

Post subject: Bought a new freestyle board
Living in Bellingham, where we get a lot of 15-20 stuff in the summer. Got pretty bored with kiting, so last summer I started trying to learn vulcans. And willy skippers. Going to beat my head against that again this summer. With the right board I might have a chance, so I just ordered a 2012 fanatic skate 109 from Kevin at sunset sailboards. After quite a bit of virtual demos, I took the plunge. If anybody is interested, I'll blog on my progress. Don't be alarmed if I go six months without any improvement to report. But according to the hype these boards are so Vulcan friendly you can't miss. We'll see about that.

I was waiting to see if I got at least one response to the post, "I bought a freestyle board", presumably posted only in the Pacific Northwest. If absolutely no one was going to read my posts, I figured I would just post in my head.
The board has seen a lot of water, but it's all been in the form of rain, in the back of my truck.
I might have more to say in the spring. At the moment the Nooksack River is emptying into Bellingham Bay at our local shallow flat-water launch. Causing me not to want to do anything that could cause me to fall in. 38-degree water, I'd guess. Tricks I'll attempt in February are limited to basic reaching, conservative gybing, and super cautious stock airs.
Here is a pic of the board. They've taken a 94-liter FSW and added an inch and a half of height to it to get the liters desired. It is 66.5 wide, so it's wide, but my 2002 JP Freestyle 109 was 70 wide.

Great lookin board! Can you tell me more about your sailing spot @ Nooksack River? (wind strength, reliability, forecasting, water conditions - flat?).
I'm a striving freesylist (during the warmer times - I'll still sail winter) & interested in learning of good spots. You got my attention when you said flat and shallow. Squamish, Canada can produce flat conditions, or is can be quite choppy...

Bellingham is a pretty decent town for shallow flat water freestyle. We've got the north end of Bellingham bay that gets a good number of morning southerlies. But it's light. Ill need every bit of my 6m2 and 109 liters for that. Shallow for miles.
On really sunny days we have a spot that blows north and is 4.7-6.0. Also shallow. The sun heats up the mud in the morning so when the tide comes back in it will often be 80-degree water.
All of this is tragically unreliable, in terms of driving more than about 20 minutes. Hard to forecast, high skunk factor. More the merrier though!

Thanks for the info. Kind of what I thought (hard to forecast & a bit on the light side). Nonetheless, If I'm down in the area, I'll have to be sure to pack some gear just in case.

So are you up in bc somewhere? You responded to this post, so perhaps you have freestyle ambitions you'd care to share...
What gear or locations or instruction may be working for you, etc.
I'm chomping at the bit to try some vulcans on the new board. Every time I walk by it I hold up my hand with my hand and make the Vulcan sign

Yep, up in BC. Bellingham (with no border wait) could be closer than Squamish. But Squamish has highly predictable winds & typically stronger winds. So, yes - happy to share. By last September I had a few (not very consistent) that I sailed out of but blew when trying to get my feet out of the straps (lesson learned - I should have been previoulsy working on sailing swtich stance in the straps shlogging).
Near 2 years ago I sprained my ankle shortly after getting a 98L JP freestyle (not using this board or trying anything unusual). This delayed by plans but but late summer, I was making attempts, though working through some tentativeness. The next year (2012) I was actively working on Vulcans, particularly when flat water conditions developed. It seems I'm going to be one of those that will need 1000 attempts to get it down.
Here's some of the things I've learned:
- a freestyle board with good pop helps
- I've been told big footstraps so foot can rotate in a crash without twisting ankles or knees - it's ALL crashing when you're learning
- flatter the water the better. Those that are consistent with Vulcans seems to go ok in chop but as a newbie to this, I've found it hard to get the pop timing in chop (it's a "pop" with weight forard not a typical jump with weight back)
- having some buddies that already have the skills or are working on something new is a big help for tips and motivation
- get your weight forward and over the board. This is very anti-intuitive but a requirement to getting the rotation and slide
- try and try again - find the patterns of where you mess up then talk about it &/or reasearch it (lots of vulcan tutorials on line). Often it's that step before where you mess up that needs work.
So best of luck & stick with it - I was frustrated from time to time especially when some days I seemed to regress! It's a cheap thrill but getting that first (though rare) long slide that goes on and on is amazing. I sail year round but the winter conditions don't suit learning vulcans so I'm looking forward to my next opportunities.

LUTE OLSON AWARD "PLAYER OF THE WEEK" HONORS March 4, 2013 BOSTON (MA) -- Duke's Ryan Kelly and Creighton's Doug McDermott share the Lute Olson award national player of the week honors. Kelly played for the first time since Jan. 8. The 6-foot-11 senior helped lead the Blue Devils to a 79-76 win over No. 5 Miami, scoring a career-high 36 points on 10-of-14 shooting from the field, including 7-of-9 from three-point range, and 9-of-12 from the free throw line. He also added seven rebounds. McDermott helped lead Creighton to its first outright regular season Missouri Valley title since 2001. The 6-foot-8 junior had 32 points and 11 rebounds in Wednesday's 80-62 win at Bradley, making 12-of-17 shots and all seven free-throw attempts. On Saturday, in front of the second-largest crowd in Creighton history (18,613), McDermott had with 41 points, six rebounds and three assists in a 91-79 win over Wichita State. McDermott made 15-of-18 shots from the floor and 5-of-8 from long-range. The Lute Olson Award is presented annually to the nation's top Division I player who has played at least two seasons with his respective team. Freshmen and first-year transfers can be named to the All-America team, but are not eligible to receive the Player of the Year honors.

Join this wild 4-D adventure as grizzly bears emerge from their winter dens in the Alaskan mountains and forage for whatever food they can find. They travel up the west coast of North America to feast on the great salmon run, one of nature's most amazing events. The salmon is on its annual journey upstream to the mountain streams in which they were born. Their passage is fraught with danger – from raging rapids and waterfalls to hungry grizzly bears. Other predators join the feast, including orcas, Steller sea lions, salmon sharks and the bald eagle. Presented in high definition 3D plus in-theater special effects, this captivating 12-minute show provides insight into the forces of nature, which drive a chain reaction culminating in a spectacular wildlife event. For some animals, it's a window of opportunity, but for others, it's the most dangerous time of their lives.

In case anyone is interested, John Beilein is on Jim Rome today. I know a lot of people hate Jim, but I don't. Listen at your leisure.
i find this extremely interesting
can get me to watch Jim Rome
Whatcha gonna do, little brother?
Say what you want about Jim Rome being a hack, but he is a great interviewer.
We're not teaching them about sports, we're teaching them about life!
Rome is arrogant, opinionated, and aggressive. What's not to like about him?
He is the best sports talk show host out there. ESPN Radio is garbage, and just remember, when you start to hate Jim Rome, think about Colin Cowherd, and remember that Cowherd is a thousand times worse IMO.
Only issue I have with Rome is that he'll tend to repeat stuff or go 10 minutes rambling on one topic / playing the same sound clip over and over.
I know a lot of people hate Jim Rome, but I love his radio show. His tv shows have always sucked, but his radio shows are great. Looking forward to hearing Coach B on Rome today.
Chuck Norris wears Brady Hoke pajamas.
Jim Rome also claims people (e.g., Tiger) don't like him because he said something about them and they won't get over it. But maybe people just don't like Jim Rome because they find him obnoxious and uninteresting.
RIP my avatar, June 14, 1998 - October 26, 2012.
Rome is hit or miss for me. When he stays on topic about sports, he can be pretty funny on the radio. But half of the time if I tune in in the middle of a segment I don't know what he's even talking about as he often gets off-topic from sports.
We're not teaching them about sports, we're teaching them about life!
I don't dislike Rome, necessarily, but a lot of his "takes" are generally obvious or not all that thought-provoking or analytical. My favorite was tuning in to a "Rome is Burning" about five years ago and Rome using his final burn on the Kansas City Royals for, well, being the Kansas City Royals. Really going out on a ledge there and taking chances, Jim, calling out the Kansas City Royals for being terrible.
"Nowhere is there a better university, in any way, than this Michigan of ours."
Rome is the best !!! I used to hate his show but grew to like him. He's always on point and is a straight-shooter
Janeane Garofalo (Film Actors Guild): "As actors it is our responsibility to read the newspaper, and then say what we read on television like it's our opinion"
This belongs here.
that's great. I also like how you got the <b> tag stuck somewhere and turned all the comments below you bold.
Man ball. Formerly, somebody else.
you like the Hawks.
Man ball. Formerly, somebody else.
If I ever want to listen to the rustle of papers over otherwise long periods of dead air I'll tune into Jim Rome's radio show.
"The difference between a man and a boy is, a boy wants to grow up to be a fireman, but a man wants to grow up to be a giant monster fireman."
- Jack Handey
Anyone that regularly trashes the worlds most popular sport as being stupid has no business being paid to discuss his sports opinions.
but it was a good interview. Beilien talked about the normal stuff: how mature Trey is, how tough the big ten is. In addition, they touched on how Beilen has never been an assistant, and whether that has helped him as a coach.
I had to take a call and missed the end, because ya know, I work, but it was still a solid interview. Say what you want about Rome (whenever I see him I think of the parody of him in Any Given Sunday played by John C. McGinely): his enunciation is annoying and he can be a troll- but the guy is a pretty fantastic interviewer.
Ok, it's monday, I have TPS reports to do.
Can't stand Rome. I'm shocked people can stand to listen to him ramble to himself. "How great was that interview? Best interview ever. That was Money. Classic! I'm Jim Rome" He talks more about how great an interview was then anything else. I'll take SVP or Dan Patrick anyday .

3 Arsenic removal technology - Arsenic removal using manganese oxide | |||

1. Product outline Fig. 1 Filter media for removal of arseni 2. Characteristics of lightweight Color Cutter G Table 1 Physical and chemical characteristics of filter media Table 2 Sample components of filter media The abrasion rate of the filter media is low, thus it cannot be easily broken even if various particles collide with the filter components during backwashing. Backwashing is finished by discharging the captured turbidity in the filter media. In addition, the large porosity results in some difficulties in increasing the differential pressure. Table 3 Conditions of the experimental comparison of filter media
4. Mechanism of arsenic adsorption
The adsorption property of manganese oxide to arsenic has been reported for many years. As regards the mechanism of activated alumina, arsenite ion is likely to be adsorbed in the negative sorption sites. In like manner, arsenic is probably adsorbed in the asperity of manganese dioxide. Some arsenic ions are also coated by the flock of aluminum hydroxide hydrolyzed by injecting the coagulant, PAC, and then removed. 5.

I don't mind the taysolation when he drives to the basket for that hookshot. I have a problem with it when it results in what you described or a desparation 2pt heave from just inside the 3pt line.
I prefer the taysolation that ends with the ball being kicked out to Brandon Knight standing at halfcourt with 2 sec left on the shotclock.
Haha, Yep. Tay may be one of the worst leaders in term of body language I have ever seen. One of the main reasons I have wondered why he has been kept along so long. Doesn't seem to be much of a leader, outspoken, or mentor. Except for the negative body language. But of course, this is all my own observations form 5k miles away.
Zach Lowe on the Taysolation Source: Can the Indiana Pacers contend for the NBA title this season? - Grantland
Tay's post game was never in question here, was it? It's how he initially broke into the starting lineup in the playoffs in '03. It's the 3-point line palming routine that he does that is tough to watch. However out of whack the defense is at that point, they have a good 5 seconds to regroup while he goes through his pre-pass checklist.
No, no. Sorry, I wasn't posting it as an argumentative thing. I just saw it in a Grantland article and though members here would be interested.
