Skip to comments.ZOGBY: MCCAIN MOVES INTO LEAD 48-47 IN ONE DAY POLLING
Posted on 11/01/2008 11:58:05 AM PDT by Smogger
ZOGBY SATURDAY: Republican John McCain has pulled back within the margin of error... The three-day average holds steady, but McCain outpolled Obama 48% to 47% in Friday, one day, polling. He is beginning to cut into Obama's lead among independents, is now leading among blue collar voters, has strengthened his lead among investors and among men, and is walloping Obama among NASCAR voters. Joe the Plumber may get his license after all...
10TH posting since last night.
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Now look at *this* over here.
The media is trying to drive us all insane!
Please post when McCain is up by 2 or more.
First I've seen it.
Sometimes "dupes" are the only ones I catch because the board moves so fast....:)
It does not say this at Zogby.
Looks like a ploy by partisan Zogby to jigger the Dem electorate to encourage turnout?
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
I got polled twice today.
Polled on my cell phone by WSJ. They weren't interested after learning that I had a landline. It was a cell only poll.
Then, later, surveyed at home by (I think) NBC on the landline. I generally expressed my horror at the concept of uhbama's election, and the survey girl was laughing, saying that she had heard many times the same sentiments.
Not that it matters, but I've never been called once before in my life. And today twice. And I live in Chicago in Rahm Emmanuel's district, turbin and uhbama are my senators, hardly a battleground.
I pray that McCain pulls this out.
I don't think the election will be decided Tuesday night or Wednesday.
We might see a repeat of 2000
I hope not. I hope we have a resounding McCain/Palin victory.
Once again, Obama "didn't know" about something he should have (his Aunt), and he gets a free pass from the MSM
This guy's ignorance or flat- out lies (take your pick, maybe both) are dangerous.
I cant believe Im losing to this idiot. —Sen. John Kerry
10TH posting since last night."
And why would that be a problem? Do you think this news shouldn't be repeated, repeated and repeated again?
The trick is whether you know how to take advantage of it.
Remains to be seen whether McCain can do that. He has the opportunity now. Will he do it?
this early voting favors Obama 2 to 1 and is clearly loaded with fraudulant illegitimate votes that will NEVER be verified or questioned.
this new "early voting" system is the new "count ALL the votes until we win" voting system
In fact, one could argue that the board "moves so fast" because no one searches before posting anymore.
I always use the "forum" link, not "breaking news".
I'll give it a try.
Not only that, but the last comment on that thread was about 20 minutes ago, so even if you are on the Latest Comments page instead of the Latest Articles page, you probably would've seen it.
Before the whole There's-an-Election-around-the-corner-so-I-must-post-every-thought-I-have-as-a-vanity thing started, I could run though 24 hours worth of threads in about 30 minutes. What I do is make a note of the headline of a thread where I want to respond and come back to it after the "scan." Once I've responded the comment is "logged" in My Replies.
It's really not that difficult, but it requires a little discipline.
I've replaced my shortcut.
All is well now....:)
2:1? That does not match the data from Florida or California. Where did you see that number?
Yes, but Tuesday's numbers are a one day poll. McCain up on that is all that matters.
that's because it's old news... yesterday's news...
it's just that it's old news... new numbers have come out...

Skip to comments.Nate Silver Ups The Ante On Historic Wager Offer With Joe Scarborough (Who will win the elections?)
Posted on 11/01/2012 8:32:50 AM PDT by SeekAndFind
Punditry vs. numbers!
Old school journalists vs. data-driven wonks! Scouts vs. Moneyball!
Nate Silver (who has become increasingly embattled for his confident assessments of Obama's chances) just offered Joe Scarborough a wager that will redefine the future of journalism.
(Excerpt) Read more at businessinsider.com ...
Nate Silver is going to eat the biggest plate of crow on November 7th that he's ever seen.
"Redefine the future of journalism"?
Lol. Ok.
What's the big deal? Why don't they make it $100,000? That would be more impressive.
Joe Scarborough is a piece of crap as well, I think he will vote for Obama,,,He is a POS period
Donate money to the Red Cross? Why not just set fire to it?
How about donating to the Salvation Army instead?
There's your proof: Nate Silver is not an objective pollster, he's an Obama activist. Compare with Scott Rasmussen, one of the few bona fide objective pollsters, who when asked by Hannity last night who is going to win the election he diplomatically stated something like (paraphrased) "I don't know, and people who think they do are either delusional or self-promoting." I actually sensed that was a shot across the bow at Dick Morris, who was on BOR just earlier. My emotions about this election are tied to Rasmussen's data, for better or worse.
He really is a pos.
Is there any record of this guy Silver being any good at poker? Not that aggregating other people's polls has anything to do with poker, of course.
5 day to go before Fundamental Restoration returns to America!
The Trunaround of 2012
Here's my three Romney win scenarios.
Worst Case Romney Win:
Likely Case Romney Win:
Best Case Romney Win:
I am with you on the worst case. But, really, that is my more likely. CO polling consistently with Romney ahead, and that means something for a state that is perenially democratic. Wisconsin tied, which probably means that Romney is actually ahead. Iowa is tougher. Iowa will be a hard stated to garner. Still have hopes for Ohio, but am afraid of voting irregularities. Slim hope for Minn, and PA.
only what he claims. He stated that he got into political prediction because after selling his baseball formula work he earned a humble living playing online poker. After it was made illegal he started trying to figure out the odds of the "b@$-—ds that voted for it would be kicked out"
Take that bet, Joe! The Red Cross needs the money!
"Nate Silver is going to eat the biggest plate of crow on November 7th that hes ever seen."
Nat Silver will make excuses while his boss, the New York Times, states how proud they are of him and what a valuable asset he is to journalism and how he was probably right but Republicans stole it in Ohio.
Not good enough. Silver should offer odds based on his "model's" prediction. If he has Obama at 75%, that's 3:1 odds he needs to offer.
BTW, notice how Scarborough says it could go either way and Silver insists he bet on Romney. Heh!
Actually... today Silver has the odds at 80%. So, the bet should be 4:1! :-)
RE: Nate Silver is going to eat the biggest plate of crow on November 7th that hes ever seen.
Look at the bright side, either way, the Red Cross gets $1000.
Exactly. In poker, you get a bad bluff, time to flush the weasel. Push it out of Silver's comfort zone.
I've seen a couple of posters mention something along these lines...what's wrong with the Red Cross?
Red Cross = scumbags that steal a good share of every dollar donated.
I wouldn't pi$$ in their ear if their head was on fire.
Am afraid S E Cupp is close to reaching that same status...Chris Cristie whom I never liked, surpassed that status last few days
He already had that status in my book because of his hateful attacks on Gov Palin
Joe Scarborough (pos) said prior to Romney selecting Ryan as his running mate said this.....
"if Romney picks Ryan I will be more excited about voting Republican than I have been in more than 20 years" That was word for word basically what he said.
He only said it because at the time...It looked clearly to him that Romney would NOT pick Ryan, that was the only reason he said it...
He is currently hiding his excitement, he was sure hiding it well when he was on the rope line with Obama the other day...SARC
One minor quibble with your worst-case scenario: My gut feeling is that Ohio would go red before Wisconsin. That's just my intuition, though.
I'll take a grand if he offers 3-1 like his model says. I'll give a grand to the Red Cross if Obama wins and he can give 3 grand to Priests for Life if Romney wins.
We'll know five days from now by this time.
Here's an Uninstall Obama App, we are going to apply on Novemebr 6th, and it cannot be hacked.
Pass it around!
That we shall.
Heres an Uninstall Obama App, we are going to apply on Novemebr 6th, and it cannot be hacked.
I figured he was malware.

In the "GPS snapshots" I've shown in the last couple posts, you can see how far apart each swimmer is (6 of them, anyway) in terms of distance. Four hours into the race, for example, Erica Rose was 455m ahead of Ollie Wilkinson, who was in turn 135m ahead of John Van Wisse.
Another way to model the race is to look at when each swimmer passes a given landmark. This shows how far apart each swimmer is on a different dimension – time. Using the GPS tracks provided by NYC Swim, we can actually calculate "split times" for each swimmer between any landmark we choose. And, using those split times, we can calculate each swimmer's speed (including current) for each segment.
For the purposes of this study, I chose 11 landmarks – three in the East River (Pier 11, Queensboro Bridge, and the Randall Island footbridge), two in the Harlem (Macombs Dam Bridge and Spuyten Duyvil), and six in the Hudson (GW Bridge, Riverbank Park, 79th St, 34th St, Pier 40, and the finish at South Cove). Hopefully they're all fairly obvious reference points. Here they are on a map:
So, here's what happened in the East River:
As you may recall, Erica Rose was about 85m ahead of Ollie Wilkinson and me at Pier 11. However, the GPS tracks were taken at 1-minute intervals – so I was only able to calculate splits to about half a minute of precision. That's why Erica, Ollie, and I have the same split for the Start-to-Pier 11 segment.
In any case, everything here pretty much corresponds to what we'd expect. From the start to Pier 11 we were swimming through mostly slack water – thus slower overall speed (probably 1 mph net current). The first part of the East River was fast (up to 6 mph average speed). In the latter part of the East River (along Roosevelt Island), the current slowed by about a knot.
Erica pretty much dominated the East River.
What about the Harlem?
Some thoughts:
- According to these splits, the field was pretty evenly matched in the Harlem. Erica gained a minute on John (and 2 minutes on Ollie) between the Footbridge and Yankee Stadium, but then gave back 30 seconds to John (and 90 seconds to Ollie) in the upper Harlem.
- This isn't necessarily because Erica was swimming less well. It's possible that the trailing swimmers gained some relative advantage by swimming in the Harlem during a faster part of the tide cycle. Erica entered the Harlem River at 11:32am – 5 minutes ahead of 2nd place Ollie and 7.5 minutes ahead of 6th place Miguel S. Those may have been crucial minutes. Based on the slow speeds of all the swimmers in the lower Harlem (just under 30 minutes per mile), we were probably swimming into a head current at first.
- The current really picked up in the upper Harlem. Again, the trailing swimmers were relatively advantaged by this, as they spent more time in the faster current. This may explain Erica's surprisingly slow split in the upper Harlem.
- I had a terrible 1st half of the Harlem; but, I already knew that.
Here's the order of the top 6 swimmers as they passed under the Spuyten Duyvil railroad bridge and into the mighty Hudson:
- Erica R. – 2:08pm
- Oliver W. – 2:13:30
- John V.W. – 2:14
- Miguel S. – 2:15
- Miguel A. – 2:16
- Evan M. – 2:17:30
Are you ready?

Shannon plays part with killer focus
The Columbus Dispatch - May 17, 2013 10:39 AM
Few serial killers operated with the cold precision of Richard Kuklinski. The mob hit man is brought to life by the dynamic performance of Michael Shannon, a gifted actor with a tremendous range, in The Iceman.
Shannon is recognized for his portrayal of a man gripped by paranoid schizophrenia in Take Shelter , his best supporting actor Oscar nod for his part in Revolutionary Road as well as his turn as the religious former Federal Prohibition agent Nelson van Alden in the HBO series Boardwalk Empire. He also demonstrated his comic chops recently reading a vicious viral letter from a sorority sister on the website Funny or Die (warning: this video contains adult language and is completely not-safe-for-work). Shannon displays expansive talent in his latest role playing the New Jersey contract killer.
His work is complemented by the performances of Ray Liotta and Winona Ryder, and put into place by director Ariel Vroman. Similarities to performances in other movies help put The Iceman into perspective.
"The Iceman is best compared to GoodFellas, and it isn't a coincidence that here Liotta has his best screen role since the earlier film," Roger Moore said in his revue. "He comes off as paranoid and ruthless."

Thank you!
Thank you so much for posting the picture of my Father's grave (Vance Fluharty.) He was out of my life very early on and this is probably the only picture I'll ever have of him (or, as close as I can get anyway.) :-) I appreciate your taking time to do this! Bonnie Konz

Felten/Felton Famil Ties
Hi Shelva,
Today was the first time I have looked at your Find A Grave
entries and was a little surprised at some of our coincidences. My GGGF Conrad Felten immigrated on JUl 20, 1846 from Hessen Darmstadt, Germany He was born approx 1816. He arrived in New York and moved to Cumberland, MD for a few years, and then on to Somerset County, PA where he died. Yours is the first fellow Hessen Darm tie I have found. I wonder if your George
(1816) could be a cousin or even a brother?
Do you know which ship or date of arrival for Your George? I have not found which town in Hessen-Darmstadt my ancestors are from. How about you?
Would your ancestors be Lutherans or Catholics?

northview vs greenlawn
I noticed you posted the greenlawn entrance for the northview pic's on your listings. Greenlawn is the oldest flat bronze marker cemetery in the US. Northview is the granit markers. Just thought you might want to change it for those who save it wrong.

As founder and creative director of the AERIN beauty line that she launched this fall, Aerin Lauder, 42, the glamorous granddaughter of the late cosmetics dynamo Estée Lauder, learned her business through 20 years of serving in product development, advertising and creative services at the family's New York headquarters. Retaining the title of creative consultant as well as style and image director for Estée Lauder, she will sell her AERIN essentials alongside theirs. The elegantly edited collection includes compact makeup, bronze illuminating powder, lip conditioner, color for lips and cheeks, eye shadow and body creme. Down the road, she will add fashion accessories and home decor. Lauder talks to PBI about her work, family and love of Palm Beach, which she has been visiting since her childhood.
PBI: Why did you decide to start your own company?
LAUDER: I am fortunate to have learned so much from a lifetime in beauty. I have taken those lessons and reinterpreted them, pursuing my own vision from my own perspective.
What is your creative concept and inspiration behind AERIN?
The line is all about effortless beauty. I know how important beauty is in a woman's life and also how hard it can be sometimes to look beautiful and stylish. I am inspired by my everyday life. Flowers, which make me smile, travel, art, the beach, fashion, fabric, even my children's toys. Anything I find interesting helps to inspire me.
Describe what you mean by simplicity in your products.
I believe you don't need dozens of products or a complicated beauty routine to look beautiful. Like most women, I only have a limited amount of time to devote to getting ready, but I also want to look my best. My AERIN line takes the same approach to beauty.
Of the products you've developed, do you have a favorite?
I love the AERIN Pretty Bronze Illuminating Powder. It is one of my secret weapons to looking pulled together.
Who are the AERIN clientele?
Women who live multifaceted lives yet want to look natural, feel refreshed and be on trend.
How do you balance being a mom and wife with your work?
It's very hard to balance everything; it's one of my biggest challenges. I do feel that one should always try to take time for yourself. If you are happy, everyone around you will be happy.
What did you learn at Estée Lauder that you will apply to your new product line?
I learned many things at Estée Lauder—the importance of passion and hard work with a talented team as well as understanding who the consumer is. I have taken these lessons and applied them to my new venture.
How often do you come to Palm Beach?
I have been going to Palm Beach for many years. It has a very special place in my heart. We would spend time as a family there enjoying the beach, the ocean, friends and Worth Avenue. Some of my favorite parts of Palm Beach are the beaches. I also love the Tropical Smoothie Café for fresh smoothies and Testa's for stone crabs. Church Mouse is great for vintage fashion items and il Sandalo for custom sandals.
Tell us about your fun family time.
I like to spend time with my husband (Eric Zinterhofer) and our children, either in New York City or on Long Island. With two young boys, my leisure time is very sporty.
What secrets did you learn from your grandmother Estée about running a beauty empire?
My grandmother always said, "You only have one face; take care of it." In terms of work, her secrets were: "Whatever you do, do it well" and, "Work hard and love what you do."

As part of our creative partnership with Coachella, we commissioned several artistic collaborations between some of today's foremost musical and creative talents.
Their task was to conceive of new audiovisual experiences to enhance and re-imagine musical performance, creating new ways of interacting with and enjoying the musical art form. In addition to working with bands like Interpol for the project, we've teamed up with J. Spaceman of beloved UK-based "space rock" band Spiritualized and UK filmmaker Jonathan Glazer on a major new interactive installation that was unveiled on the Coachella festival grounds. The duo created a physical manifestation of the Spiritualized track "Ladies and Gentlemen, We Are Floating in Space," produced by Juliette Larthe with creative and technical support from One of Us. In a cathedral-like space, designed by Undisclosable, isolated pools of light appeared, each containing a different component of the original track. Watch Part 2 of our documentary on Glazer and Spiritualized's creative process above, and Part 1 below.

Bill Clinton Tells CNN, He Eat's Only "G" Now To Heal Himself
Contributing Monkie G Monkie
Topics of Interest bill clinton, Vegan

Section Fitness/Diet, G/Videos, GreenChef Foodie Talk, Pop Culture / Celebrities
Comment 1
Why do people decided to add more plants to their diets or go completely vegan? Theres really many different reasons but a big one always seems to be, sickness. As soon as people actually feel what they have been doing to their body for years, they sometimes wake up and change everything. This is what President Bill Clinton is doing right now. No more dead cows… now its all about the nut milk, hmmmmm.
"I'm trying to be one of those experimenters," said Clinton. "Since 1986, several hundred people who have tried essentially a plant-based diet, not ingesting any cholesterol from any source, has seen their bodies start to heal themselves — break up the arterial blockage, break up the calcium deposits around the heart. 82 percent of the people who have done this have had this result, so I want to see if I can be one of them."
Clinton decided to adopt the diet in the early part of May 2010. While he does occasionally eat fish, the former president otherwise follows a strict vegan diet.
What made him go vegan? According to our source, Clinton has read many books on the topic, including books by T. Colin Campbell, Caldwell Esselstyn and Dr. Dean Ornish. Although losing weight was a benefit of the dietary change, the choice to go vegan was about more than just losing weight.

Skip to comments."If I wanted America to fail"
Posted on 04/23/2012 8:25:58 PM PDT by mamelukesabre
This is the video that got the maker's twitter account banned. It is very good.
This is the 5th or 6th thread on this.
>"This is the 5th or 6th thread on this"<
Yep, it's that good...
Needs more exposure with a thread or two a day!
I have never seen it before and I am here ALL the time.
I think the production values were excellent.
yeah, I guess I screwed up. I saw the michelle malkin article posted but when I clicked on the link provided, there was no youtube vid in the article or a link to it. I had to find the vid on youtube myself. That's why I posted the link in that thread as a comment and then decided to make a new thread with the link only. But now when I go back to the michelle malkin thread, the link to the article has an imbedded youtube vid in it. I don't know what happened. Maybe my computer hiccuped there momentarily.
I never saw the other threads.
If I wanted America to fail, I'd sit out this election because my candidate didn't win the primary, and claim there is no difference between the two choices.
He left out the most important line, even though it was implied. His last line should have been, "If I wanted America to fail, I would vote for Barack Obama."
The RNC should air this on the MSM channels
Go Alinsky on his own narrah ass!
Vote Down Ballot AND Fight!
If I wanted America to fail, Id sit out this election because my candidate didnt win the primary, and claim there is no difference between the two choices.
If I wanted america to fail.. I'd nominate someone from the opposition party as our presidential candidate!
And there is a difference. One is only half white.
I enjoyed that. Thank you for posting.
You have a good four months to repeat that until Tampa. Then you become part of the problem.
There is a search engine for that very purpose.
>This is the 5th or 6th thread on this<
Yep, its that good...
If I wanted America to fail, I'd sit back and play this rigged political game, pretending that which pre-selected candidate slithers into office matters, instead of steeling my nerve and preparing for what must be done.
Both sides are headed toward the NWO. One side's just faster.
But they can't because their candidate is as in the tank on global warming as Obama is.
I dont speak for the scientific community, of course, Romney said. But I believe the worlds getting warmer. I cant prove that, but I believe based on what I read that the world is getting warmer. And number two, I believe that humans contribute to that so I think its important for us to reduce our emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases that may well be significant contributors to the climate change and the global warming that youre seeing.
It is good.
That thing doesn't work more often than it does work.
It's good enough merit a few duplicates I s'pose.
If I wanted America to fail, I would vote for a socialist/Marxist, big government twit, regardless of political party...
Dear Dan,
I wonder if you could articulate for us the differences between Barak Obama and Mitt Romney on the Global Warming issue?
Michelle Malkin article on the video:
If I wanted America to fail video goes viral, but Twitter suspends groups account; Update: Account restored
Choose yer poison.
No sir. I am NOT the problem. I did not vote Romney in my states caucus.
The problem is NOT me. It is who DID vote for Romney in the primary.
I will accept NO BLAME for the nomination of Romney or his failure to beat Obama. I supported Santorum with my vote and my money. I now support Newt.
50% of the nation view Romney as unfavorable. That is HIGHER than Obama. Your fooling yourself if you think Romney is going to beat Obama. I won't be alone in November in voting 3rd party of NOTA at the top of the ticket.
I won't give the liberal posing as a republican one penny to run against my views.
I will simply give that extra money to candidates down ticket that I can support.
Obama is going to beat Romney like a fully insured rental car. I suspect Reagan/Mondale type beating.
Yes, you are right.
Or, just generally, I wouldn't get involved and would pride myself on being "above the fray".
I DO think I finally got through to a friend of mine about that attitude.
Thank you, I hadn't seen this before. Every voters needs to see this everyday until it sinks in or they can remain status quo and do nothing.
You didn't read what you responded to. He clearly said IN FOUR MONTHS and in the general. NOt now. not last month. Not in february. Not in the primaries.
Given a choice between Romney and Obama, that is a good analogy. With regret for the primary loss but without a moment's hestitation, I will vote for the one that gets there slower. There's less of a difference than I would like, but there IS a difference.
Check it out. Really well done.
There is NO Romney love on this site, but who are you kidding?
Powerful! Sending to my peeps.
"If I wanted America to fail...I'd just keep doing what I'm doing." WOW!!!
and in FOUR MONTHS my stand will NOT change. I still WILL NOT support Romney.
So blame me now and get it over with.
No Romney for me. I am DONE with Liberals running as republicans. I voted for the old fart liberal and Sarah last time. I saw what they did to her during and after the election and how that old fart ran and hid and did NOTHING for her.
I am not about to vote for that again.
And what does it matter? I am in MINNESOTA. If you think this state would go Obama by 1 vote your nuts.
Fox, Drudge, Beck, Rush etc...
Perhaps now that Twitter banned the video, it will get more attention.
Hopefully it goes viral.
It is precisely part of the Obama agenda. Many do not recognize it. This vid articulates concisely the outcome and is tastefully done with little direct incrimination.
This is but one of the agendas.
OH sure. Romney will keep eric holder as AG. In fact, he'll keep obama's entire staff and cabinet and all his czars too. Everyone knows that. He'll nominate clones of elana kagan until the cows come home./s
Sadly, ole mitt is way too much like obama than any rebublican should be. He may be so close to him it ruins any chance he has in the debates which will cost him the election. Maybe. But clearly he is not identical to obama.
It will if some one sends it to Breitbart
Geez! So what is your point! Many threads are on FR about the same subject. Many don't have the luxury to be on here 24/7 to monitor how many posts are made. How are the folks going to know to go to the other threads?
I back the nominee at this point, and I say we vote down ballot to hold the eventual nominees feet to the fire.
That's all we have.
Talk of voting for Sarah palin and such is like voting for pat paulson.
A petulant protest vote that benefits Obama.
What part of Mitt Romney is a self-avowed progressive socialist don't you get?

All students must simultaneously attend Yeshiva College or Syms School of Business.
Our Yeshiva aims to provide a positive learning environment where each student can reach his full potential in Torah study. We provide varied learning programs, reflecting the diverse interests and skills of our students, along with an outstanding array of Roshei Yeshiva, Rebbeim, faculty, mashgichim and administrators who are concerned about the Torah growth and personal welfare of each student. Our faculty and administration alike are accessible to students to discuss their individual needs and concerns.
Progress in Torah learning is achieved through consistent effort, patience, a modicum of struggle, and keeping to a set schedule. In fact, the word "Yeshiva" means to sit—in a beit midrash or a classroom; without disciplined regularity there cannot be growth. To that end, we have formulated an attendance policy to further these aims and to be of assistance to students who are having difficulty meeting these expectations.
1. Talmidim are expected to attend all shiurim and seder and to be present on time.
2. Three weeks into the semester the UTS office reviews attendance lists. Talmidim missing more than one day of seder/shiur per week or missing cumulatively four days will be contacted by the office.
3. Attendance is then reviewed two to three weeks later.
4. If the talmid's attendance has not improved since the initial correspondence, he must meet with a UTS administrator.
5. If the problem persists and talmid accrues the equivalent of 15 total absent days (forty-five total periods including shiur and seder), withstanding specific mitigating factors, he will be placed on probation the following semester. Extenuating circumstances are taken into consideration when the number of absences is reviewed.
6. Ten minutes late is the equivalent to ½ absent, twenty minutes late is the equivalent to absent.
7. Students are expected to give their full attention to the class. Students that are texting or surfing the web during class will be marked absent.
8. Probation, as stated in the catalog, requires the talmid to take shiur for credit and limited to 13.5 total college credits.
9. If a student is absent more than 50% of the time, an automatic grade of "G" is recorded for the course.
10. Two semesters in a row of probation are grounds for possible dismissal from the university.
We expect students to maintain a passing grade average in order to continue in the program.
The attendance record may be taken into account when determining a student's status in the University. Continued unexcused absences will result in the student being dropped from the course with a grade of G. This can lead to probation or academic dismissal from the college.
Midterm and final examinations are required in each course.

i think both of you fine peeps have touched on a very important point. athletes and actors/musicians should not be heros or role models. teachers, firemen, policemen, even doctors should be. but they are not, why? because they don't get paid gobs of money for what may appear as a thankless job. but there are tons of innersity kids playing roundball in the alleyways, practicing their basketball hoping to make it big (big money, that is). i don't think kids are willing to go through what it takes (years and years of schooling) to accomplish what is neccessary to get a decent job. for some, its all about the quick strike of tons of money without having to pay your dues.
i don't make tons of money. but i have a modest house in a nice suburb. i've done fairly well for myself with what i have. and know what?...i'm happy. i have lived within my means to make a life for myself. would it be great if i sold a ton of records and became a millionaire...sure. so while i'm waiting for that to happen, i'm going to go on doing what i do, which is be realistic...and plan for my future with what i have.
and while its all fine and dandy for young-uns to admire athletes and celebs, its important for parents to teach their kids what is really important...like a harem of buxom redheads

Like many Americans, my family and I began the year gripped to our seats as we watched events unfold in North Africa and the Middle East. When Colonel Qadhafi threatened to hunt down Libyan opposition activists street-by-street, house-by-house, there was no doubt in my mind that he would follow through on that promise. His regime's efforts to beat down the opposition showed some of the worst aspects of humanity. And then, Qadhafi fled and the people could begin building the free and democratic system of government that they deserve. It is an understatement to say that I am proud of those Libyans who earned their freedoms.
This Thanksgiving, I feel extremely thankful for the opportunity to witness the birth of a new Libya in 2011. I thought you might like to know what Libyans are thankful for this holiday. Here's what a few of my Libyan colleagues had to share:
Magdi, Public Affairs Office -- "I've felt as though I've been on a roller coaster ride since the 17th of February, the day Libya decided to win back its freedom. The ups and downs of the eight-month struggle were finally rewarded with the overthrow of Qadhafi's regime that ruled Libya with an iron fist for four decades. This year, I am thankful for the Libyan people who sacrificed their lives for the sake of a Free Libya, their sacrifice is acknowledged and appreciated by people all over the world and makes me proud to say that I am Libyan. I am also grateful for our global friends that supported Libya with 'any means necessary' to achieve the ultimate goal, which was getting rid of a tyrannical regime who was willing to set Libya ablaze just to stay in power. Things are finally looking great for Libya and that makes me say that this year's Thanksgiving will be the most memorable one ever."Manal, Executive Office -- "I am thankful for the Revolution and the struggle to throw off the tyrants. I am also thankful for the support given to us by the embassy during the seven month crisis. The embassy gave me a sense of belonging, when my whole world had fallen apart; especially so, the phone calls by our Deputy Chief of Mission, Joan, just to check on me. I was moved and comforted by her calls in equal measures."Mohamed, Foreign Commercial Service -- "I'm thankful to God for so many things that have happened to me during my 60 years. I have a great wife, and two lovely children who fill my life with joy. I'm thankful for my family's health and that is a gift of All-Mighty. Above all else this year, I'm so thankful for my country's freedom, and for the people of Libya. She is free, and we are flying with joy. As Mr. King said and I am 'Free at Last.' That's why I'm thankful this year."
Kimberly J. in Virginia writes:
After 42 years of tyranny under Gaddafi and his thugs, Libyans deserve all the assistance the US and others can provide to help them develop a free democratic nation that considers Libyan customs and Islamic faith.

@ Amb. Cretz,
You did us all proud as Ambassador sir, and I thank you for your efforts.
The posts I'm putting on this thread are your's for review.
My mom thinks I have "second-sight" but if I called it right, it was just a good "audible" yelled out from the stands in the hopes the coach would send in the play.
You never know who reads these things.
Eric in New Mexico writes:
Crater a few military runways and tell the Lybian airforce to go home and take care of their mothers?
There's an idea...get you a "no-fly" zone for about a month that way, easy. If there's anything left for them to fly after that, more precicely.
The question is will their mothers let them back in the house after bombing the people?
I think it's all but a moot point, Ghadaffi will likely endure the same fate as Mussolini at the hands of his people, for his crimes committed upon them.
And he'll have only himself to blame if he be hung on a meathook like a side of beef.
Maybe once a terrorist, always a terrorist?
Like serial killers I guess, sometimes they take a break for a few years and then go back at it.
Well I remember telling a fellow dipnote blogger awhile back that there was a lot of mental illness on the world stage.
I guess I don't need anyone to second that opinion as it's patently obvious that the criminally insane are doing their thing.
@ PJ Crowley, Assist Sec. of State- Public Affairs
How about we just put a screeching halt to it PJ? Talkin's not doing, and the other guy ain't listening, so let's all get busy as democracies on this planet and tap dance on Ghaddafi's head...might wake the boy up.
Or we could simply have him for batting practice at spring training this year courtesy of the entire RED SOX NATION.
I mean with all due respect for life, limb and property and all...words alone, I don't think will cut it when you need a scalple to perform the lobotomy.
See, this is a another real good example of why the world can no longer afford to put up with tyrants and dictators for another second.
And I would suggest to you without speculation sir, that "the war on terror" has actually entered a new universal understanding thereby.
Looks like the people are winning, but at a very high price.

Eric in New Mexico writes:
Pres. Obama, Sec. of State, Sec. of Defense, and those concerned,
I honestly don't know what the international community is thinking as it sits on it's hands while Ghaddafi remains in power to unleash unlimited war on his people.
You can treat the symptoms, provide a little aid and comfort, maybe some transport to refugees to get back home from the conflict.
But folks arn't doing a damn thing to stop the slaughter and watching passively while this divolves into a protracted civil war, while NATO and our Sec. of Defense think of every reason possible not to take direct military action to remove Ghaddafi by force to protect populations.
Wake up folks! A WMD has been unleashed. It has a name. It has sons that do his bidding.
Supposedly these parameters justified the removal of Saddam after the fact, so let's make it stick in this case.
Ghaddafi unleashed war on his people and they've taken up arms to defend themselves, the least we can do is level the playing field and create the peace from scratch, by eliminating Ghaddafi's ability to make war...forget a no-fly zone, and get real.
If politicians and governments are going to concoct more lame excuses to not do anything about the "unacceptable", then you might as well declare failure of moral certitude and resign , accepting the unacceptable as the status quo while the rest of this planet goes strait to hell, for lack of tryin' to get your act together and create a better world.
You did alright about half the way there, and now it looks to me like you'all have set yourselves up rather neatly to fall flat on your collective faces in response to this nightmare.
Well, let me just say that there is an alternative to political stupidity, but it involves a kinetic solution and the supporting diplomacy...and a little courage.
That's if you think saving several hundred thousand lives over the next year to 18 months is in everyone's national interests.
How do we pay for it? one asks,...well take that 30 bil in frozen assets and put it to good use for the Lybian people, as we shouldn't have to pay a dime in US taxdollars to liberate them.
I know folks @ State will just love me for saying this, but you know folks, there's a time for talkin' and a time to pull out the "can o' whup-ass" on ethical infants.
Now is one of those times and it's in your face...so put a screeching halt to criminal stupidity already.
Simple policy directive..."you use it, you lose it." and since Ghaddafi has, it's time to take his toys away and send him to prison...so let's serve the warrant without delay!
Just how long do you folks want to put up with this?
Till your policy is declared a failure by the people who count on us to be the beacon of hope and freedom around the world?
Clock's ticking....good luck with it,

...and we don't need to invade Lybia to liberate the people. The taliban were removed from power with 310 spec/opps and cia personel helping the Northern Alliance with targeting.
Weve done this before and we have the capacity right now to do it again to any tin-horn dictator anywhere in the world for about 20 billion.
Our job is simple, strait forward; eliminate Ghaddafi's capacxity to make war...period. We don't have to worry about breaking something and then owning it because it's already broke as a system of government and society, Ghaddafi saw to that already.
When there is nothing left to fight with, then there will be peace from scrtatch. So basicly we do what we do rather well, demolition of intent and taking out hardware.
Worry about nation-building when he's gone and the bullets have stopped flying.
I give it about two sustained weeks for the US to turn his armor, etc. to smoking ruin, and the world can be witness again to a US sponsored turkey-shoot on CNN.
Then the people can do for themselves what they need to.
And USAID can follow-up and do its thing.
If not, then all those nice words about human rights don't mean squat. It's just another con-job governments are pulling on the people to make themselves look good and self important while supposedly dealing with a crisis.
Looks to me like there is a distinct lack of follow through on the rhetoric by this Admin.. If you want Ghaddafdi gone, then just give him a shove, and do what it takes.
Personally I don't like my analysis, but it is accurate and describes the very limited choices left for the President to make good on his words.

Amb. Cretz,
The therapy starts as the people rejoice in their newly aquired freedoms.

(from State's daily briefing 3/9/2011)
QUESTION: When the United Nations ambassador says that the United States is going to take actions – i.e., the application of pressure – until a foreign head of state leaves office and there is a new head of state, that is a
policy of regime change, is it not?
MR. TONER: James, you certainly enjoy the political – discussion of political philosophy and terminology. Again, what's clear here is that we want to see Colonel Qadhafi step down, leave Libya, and for the violence to end, the bloodshed to end. We believe that's the best way for that to happen. And this is not the U.S. acting alone; this is the U.S. acting in concert with the international community. We've been quite clear, and it's been quite apparent throughout, that we have been in lockstep with both our process at the UN and at NATO in building international consensus on any actions that we're taking.
QUESTION: Driving toward a change of the regime, correct?
MR. TONER: Driving towards a resolution of the current conflict and trying to, through that resolution, create an opportunity for a democratic government to emerge, or a better government to emerge in Libya.
QUESTION: Via regime change?
MR. TONER: Call it what you will, James.
@ Mark Toner,
Your job is to discus the political philosophy underpinning US foreign policy and defining the lexicon used to accurately describe the processes of policy as they are implemented by the US State Dept, among other duties as a spokesperson in furthering public diplomacy and diseminating information for the public's consumption and awareness.
As such, you should enjoy the question James asked of you, not try and belittle him in any way for asking it.
I don't "enjoy" the effort I've been engaged in trying to change the nature of the conversation the world is having nor am I engaged in a academic semantic excercise to simply define terms accurately decriptive of US policy intent. It has real world implications.
I do so out of neccessity because folks @ State obviously need all the help you can get, especially when you are all far too concerned with not being defined by the last adninistration's lexicon regarding confict resolution measures taken to remove governments posing an existential threat to the US, allies and the general peace of
"Regime replacement therapy" is a better way to defime exactly what it is the US intends as policy in Lybia or elswwhere.
If you need to get direction from "on high" as to whether you can define our policy in this manner "officially" as "regime replacement therapy" then I would urge you to do so.
The whole world is evolving Mark, and so there's an evolutionary process in defining the things that we do in the world we live in as it changes around us. Whether that be as individuals or nations.
More pointedly, you are allowing others to define policy rather than being pro-active about doing so to brook no debate or confusion.
It's like you threw up your hands and gave up..."call it what you will."
Well he probably will because you left him still confused as to what the deal is here Mark.
Now I'm trying to help you help the American public wrap its head around this Administration's apparently "foggy" policy and help you folks in "foggy bottom" shine a bright spotlight on what it is we do asa a nation based upon the values policy is defined by.
A certainly you could not protest that this world is not long due for a lot of therapy in large international measure, and regime replacement has been called for in notable cases and folks call that progress towards a better world sans terrorism and tyrants.
Now just what do you think James would have written if you had told him simply, "No, it's not regime change, it's more a process of regime replacement therapy."
And let him figure that out?
You would have helped this administration accurately descibe the rationale behind calling for Ghaddafi to "leave", the humanitarian response by USAID, the democracy programs helping folks raise institutions of governance in places where we've already removed abysmal forms of government or the people have themselves on their own, and projected consistancy as a US policy package of mutiple aspects and programs in three simple words that define a process of the change we seek in the world generally, and in notable cases of international crisis specificly.
Now if my logic here has any holes in it, you are certainly welcome to come on this blog and state your case, officialy or otherwise as an individual.
I'm sure other's will regardless.
Think of this as a friendly public challenge to be the best spokesperson you can be.
Best regards,
Posted on Thu Mar 10, 2011

- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 16 corn tortillas, warmed
- Chipotle Mayonnaise, recipe follows
- Sour Orange, Red Cabbage and Jicama Slaw, recipe follows
- Fresh cilantro leaves, for serving
- Chipotle Mayonnaise:
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons pureed chipotles en adobo
- Juice of 1/2 lime
- Sour Orange, Red Cabbage and Jicama Slaw:
- 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 jicama, grated on large holes of box grater
- 1/2 small red onion, grated on large holes of box grater
- 1/4 head red cabbage, grated on large holes of box grater
- 1 large carrot, grated on large holes of box grater
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
DirectionsWatch how to make this recipe. Guava Glazed Pulled Pork:
Special equipment: roaster box with probe thermometer, such as La Caja China; sufficient charcoal to cook pork butt for 4 to 5 hours (about 30 pounds)
For the pork: Using a paring knife, make small slits over the entire surface of the pork. Put the pork in a large roasting pan or bowl. Combine the oil, oregano, garlic and a big pinch of salt in a blender and blend until smooth. Rub into the slashes. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours.
Whisk together the guava jelly, mustard, orange and lime juices in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
Prepare the roaster box according to manufacturer's instructions.
Sprinkle the pork liberally with salt and pepper and put fat-side up on the rack over the roasting pan in the roaster box. Cook for 1 hour, flip, and cook another 2 hours. Glaze the top with the guava mixture, flip, glaze again, cover the box and cook another 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork is about 195 degrees F. You can check the meat occasionally to make sure the glaze on the top of the meat isn't burning, so you can add sufficient charcoal to keep the box hot without burning the glaze. Total cooking time will be between 4 and 5 hours. Remove the pork, tent lightly with foil and let rest 15 minutes. Pull the pork into bite-size pieces and toss with more of the guava glaze.
Lay the warm tortillas on a flat surface. Smear some Chipotle Mayonnaise on each one. Fill the center with some of the pork, some of the Sour Orange, Red Cabbage and Jicama Slaw and top each with some cilantro leaves. Fold over and eat.
Whisk together the orange juice, lime juice, honey and sugar in a large bowl. Add the jicama, onions, cabbage, carrots and cilantro and season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld.

Skeptics say they're making constructive criticisms of what they see as blind faith in new financial markets.government's own expert panel also found that it had "greatly undervalued" what it was proposing to sell.) Writing recently in The Guardian, columnist and land rights activist George Monbiot denounced PES schemes as "another transfer of power to corporations and the very rich." Also writing in The Guardian, Tony Juniper, a conservationist and corporate consultant, replied in effect that Monbiot and other critics should shut up, on the grounds that campaigning against payment for ecosystem services "could inadvertently strengthen the hand of those who believe nature has little or no value, moral, economic or otherwise."
Making the economic case for ecosystem services often 'has more resonance' with decision makers, one researcher says.fire, drought, disease, or flood. Finally, Redford and Adams point out, the effects of climate change, "always the joker in the pack," could toss carefully constructed economic schemes — and natural habitats — into disarray.
Critics are uncomfortable with viewing nature 'as a service provider fit to be incorporated into the global capital markets.'someone to create another somewhere else." When governments and PES proponents talk about employing marketplace solutions instead of traditional regulatory approaches, he says, "what they are really talking about is shrinking democracy, shrinking public involvement in decision making, shrinking transparency and accountability. By handing it over to the market you are in effect handing it over to corporations and the very rich," and to "a very plutocratic" decision-making process.

Kristen at 4:11 - More footage of her at the OTR roundtable
Via | Via
She's sooo pretty even when she's dressed down and does not have too much makeup on.ReplyDelete
yeah... i think that the natural look is the best for her,too!!!!
she can show her natural beauty when she doesn't wear that much make-up...
she really has natural beauty..she's so cuteReplyDelete
I saw OTR thumb up for Kristen as Marylou👍👍👍
aww...you're so luckyDelete
yeah,i saw it ,too...she was just AMAZING.. i think she deserves to get nominated!
She talks very intellectually for a 22 yr old girl.I like listening to her interview ,i don't mind her stuttering a little bit,because she always gives an interesting and insightful answer.She don't make light of what she do ,she takes it very seriously.Kristen just need one very challenging role that will bring out the artist in her,i know she's got it in her,the kind of role that will make her the Scarlett O Hara of her generation,she's the only actress right now who's got the striking beauty that can pull off the same kind of role.It will be a waste not to see Kristens face in cinema every year.
yes, i agree with you very much. it is always interesting to hear her interviws for any movie she makes..
I love to listen to or read what she has to say! She is a very intelligent young ladyDelete

Healthy dining out is getting easier thanks to the changes these restaurants have made.
You may have noticed some new healthy dining options at the fast-food drive-thru recently. Concern about bleak statistics�like the 25.8 million children and adults who have diabetes in the United States�and the fact that, according to the Centers for Disease Control, one-third of the American adults are obese, is finally translating into real change. This year, we�ve seen remarkable steps in the right direction from big-name food companies like Red Lobster, McDonald�s and Boston Market, who are all making significant improvements to their offerings and messaging to the public. Here are five menu makeovers that made healthy dining easier in 2012.
1.�Red Lobster�
Menu Makeover:�The seafood chain has added more non-seafood options like chicken and salads and some lighter (under 510-calorie) dishes to its menu. Chain restaurants typically operate with extreme portion sizes�a serving tends to be two to three times larger than the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)-recommended portion. So items like the more calorie-conscious Island Grilled Mahi-Mahi and Shrimp and Roasted Vegetarian Skewers are welcome changes for healthy dining. �Restaurants like Red Lobster that are now offering lower-calorie options are attacking the portion distortion issue of our obese nation�it is up to us to select those healthier items, or else take some food home,� says registered dietitian Ilana Katz, of Optimal Nutrition for Life (www.onforlife.com).
RELATED: Fast Food Gets Healthy�
2. McDonald�s
Menu Makeover: The iconic chain is displaying calorie counts front-and-center on its menu, and offering more healthy dining choices like fruit and veggie side dishes, egg-white McMuffins and grilled chicken in kids� Happy Meals. �With McDonald�s publically revealing the calories of every item on their menu, it allows the weight-conscious to permit themselves to have the occasional fast-food treats without jeopardizing their consistent efforts at positively changing body composition, and makes those people not so in-the-know more aware as to what needs to be worked off to avoid consistent fat gain,� Katz says.
3. Applebee�s and Chick-fil-A
Menu Makeover: Both chains joined the Kids LiveWell program through the National Restaurant Association, which encourages more healthful children�s menu options of fruit and vegetables, lean protein, whole grains and low-fat dairy products. To join the program, restaurants have to agree to offer and promote a selection of items that meet the USDA�s Dietary Guidelines standards for healthy dining. �Children need the most help in becoming aware of their health and their options from their role models, such as parents, teachers and coaches,� says Katz. �This program not only makes children more responsible for their own health, but presents awareness to the adults around them.�
RELATED: Six Diet-Conscious Tips for Eating Out�
4. Burger King
Menu Makeover: The King of burgers is now offering a new menu with more salads, snack wraps and fruit smoothies. �Although the calorie count for some of the healthier options may still need some work to get even lower, I applaud the chain making an effort to offer a wider range of healthy dining options. It is still up to us as individuals to be aware of calories taken in, though,� advises Katz.
5. Boston Market
Menu Makeover: The fast-casual chain has not only moved salt shakers off the tables at its 476 locations, but it also plans to lower the sodium level of menu items across the board by 15 percent by the end of 2014, according to Nation�s Restaurant News. The company has already reduced sodium in several items, including its original chicken recipe by 20 percent and turkey gravy by about 50 percent. �Sodium is the greatest contributor to hypertension, increasing heart attacks and strokes. To remain within the ranges of the recommended daily allowance for sodium (about 1700 mg) is in fact very difficult, and that is even without any added sodium,� says Katz. �Cutting back anywhere�helps.�

SHOPWORN - Starting Out - D-Pawn Attacks
The Colle-Zukertort, Barry and 150 AttacksProduct Code: SWB0036EM
Publisher: Everyman Chess
Author: Richard Palliser
Year of Publication: 2008

Book Description The Colle-Zukertort, Barry and 150 Attacks - Are you looking to attack with 1 d4? Then look no further...
In this book Richard Palliser provides in-depth coverage of three of the most dangerous attacking set-ups available to White: the Colle-Zukertort, the Barry, and the 150 attacks. In recent years these three opening weapons have considerably gained in popularity, especially at club level, and it's easy to see why. They are fun to learn, and easy to play; they take Black away from the comfort zone of established theory; and they can all lead to devastating mating attacks against the black king. What more can you ask from an opening? Whether you are playing the White or Black side, this book tells all you need to know.
The Everyman Chess Starting Out series has firmly established itself as the leading guide to studying openings for up-and-coming players. These books are distinguished by their easy-to-read layout, the lucid explanations of the fundamentals, and the abundance of notes, tips and warnings to help the reader absorb vital ideas. Starting Out opening books are ideal for enthusiastic chess players who have little experience of the openings in question and who wish to appreciate the essential principles behind them.
* An essential guide to d4 attacks
* All the main lines are covered
* Ideal for improvers, club players and tournament players

Topic: Is Rails a good place to start?
I read that Steve Huffman, who is teaching CS253 at Udacity, said that it would be better for a beginner to start with a simpler framework, than rails (or Django etc.). He uses webapp2 in the course.
I know a little bit of python, and I've gone through some very simple rails tutorials (teamtreehouse). I have just started the Michael Hartl tutorial on rails. But after reading the comment from Steve Huffman, I'm unsure if I should start there instead and then move to rails later on.
I know that this forum is probably biased towards rails. But would I be better of in the long term starting with something simpler?
I want to learn webdevelopment/programming to create my own start-up and make a MVP. So while rails has more features, would it be faster/easier to get something going on GAE and webapp2 (and possible also better for understanding the technologies?)?

Norma, other than a few I burnt, I agree that the pizza from the BS is very good - certainly much better than a home oven, with a steel plate, IMHO.
Barry,I certainly agree that the BS is the best thing to come along for any pizza makers. My home oven no matter what is used is crap compared to the BS. Norma
OUTSTANDING pies young lady, and I agree, haven't used the kitchen oven since I got my BS, one the best buys ever!!!jon
Those pies are awesome Norma. You guys should get a commission from Blackstone. I am so tempted.jb
I've paid WAY more for stuff that was WAY bad, this seemed like a no brainer for the 370ish bucks
Go for it Jr. It's great. It's improved my pizzas so much. Not to mention not having to turn the oven on for an hour ahead of time and heating up the house in the middle of summer. Many benefits! Regards, TinRoof
Ha, my toyota t100 is just at that 200,000mi point and my corolla has 130,000, rosie's POS volkswagon beetle 2001year has 44000 and she want a new one, she don't like it anymore . Funny I told if she bought that pos she'll have to deal with it. Didn't speak to her for three monthhs REALLY, she went with her sister behind my back and bought it. House turned to ice for awhile jon
You have experience on your side Norma...I'll bet you do just fine. btw, do you know the exact size of the BS bottom stone?
16.5" diameter (at least mine is).Jim

general flyfishing question...
I have been reading the Orvis fly fishing guide and while it has lots of information regarding the general techniques of fly fishing, I did not see anything regarding what is done after the line is cast.
Do I immediately pull the fly in and cast again, let it drift with current?
I hiked up little river trail this last weekend, about 2 miles up, and I tried both ways, the results were both the same, nothing, but it was a nice hike anyways. I guess that day I should have hiked up a bit further. :-/
Re: general flyfishing question...
Well, There are several different methods but generally speaking, if you fish dries upstream you will mend the line i.e. throw slack or throw line downstream in an arch in order to avoid drag on the fly.When the fly comes down towards you in upstream dry fly fishing you begin to take home line so you will have line control in case a fish takes and also so you will be able to throw your line in a new cast instead of having to do a lot of false casting. If you fish downstream with dries you have to constantly throw slack and or mend in order to avoid drag. Remember if you have drag on the fly, i.e. if the fly is skittering you won't catch anything 98% of the time. There are exceptions but they are rare. If you are nymphing you would do the same if you nymph upstream. If you are nymphing downstream with the old wet fly techniques you would slowly take home line as you let the nymph come float downstream to avoid drag. When the nymph comes to the end of the drift you can start slowly taking it home and you will probably get a strike if you didn't get one on the swing at the end. Hope this makes sense. If you are fishing close and are using what we call high sticking you basically only use the leader and maybe a foot or two of line. You are holding the rod high and following the line as it drifts downstream. Be ready for a quick strike and lift your rod immediately. These are some ways to fly fish others can tell you about more advanced techniques such as shooting the line and double haul.
Re: general flyfishing question...
Don't worry about not catching any fish yet. I fished for about a year and only caught a few little bitty dinks. These fish were so small that i didn't know they were on until i started false casting and something felt wrong. Then I'd look at my fly thinking that i had some moss or something on it and low and behold there is a little bitty fish looking scared to death.
Re: general flyfishing question...
Generally you are going to let your fly drift with the current. That's what natural insects do and that's what the fish will be looking for. Look for the seams where fast water meets slow water and cast upstream along those seams. Strip in slackline as the fly drifts back to you. I'm simplifying things a bit here but it's a good place to start.
Your best bet would be to get an experienced angler to go fishing with you. He or she could shorten your learning curve quite a bit. Good luck!
Re: general flyfishing question...
Wow! I am begining to think this fly fishing stuff may be more compicated than bullhead fishing the little lakes in Nebraska.

This is Sound Fiction, a chance to enter the world of a short story or novel as read by the author.
Lydia Millet writes some books aimed at adults, and others for teens. Her characters are often smart but world-weary, their enthusiasm for life sliced thin by disappointment and tempered with dry humor.
In the young adult novel Pills & Starships Millet imagines a future world devastated by environmental disaster and pharmaceutical addiction.
The narrator, a teenager named Nat, has to endure a vacation retreat with her family that will culminate in her parents' own carefully planned, state-approved suicides.
To escape, Nat writes a journal, telling an imaginary future reader how it is that human beings came to have planned obsolescence, much like machines...

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (33 votes).
In short: Will get better over time...In full: First off the race itself was very good (apart from the windy conditions but you can't really blame anyone for that) with good PB potential. I would definitely recommend this for beginners as the course is flat and friendly with no nasty surprises.Now for the complaints...I appreciate that this was the organiser's first race but marshalling really wasn't very good. Runners had to turn up and work a lot of it out for themselves. Parking was difficult. Start line organisation was a bit of a shambles. I would suggest that marshalls be arranged more effectively. Also, the timings at the end of the race were a bit confused as the times stated in the provisional results section of the website did not match up with the time on the stopclock in the race photos. Anyone who can explain this...Date of review: March 8, 2010
In short: very busy course route, bikers, pedestrians and toddlers to negotiateIn full: Great route although very windy so quite difficult on the way back. A lot of obstacles to negotiate by inconsiderate walkers.Date of review: March 8, 2010
In short: Nice and Flat for a potential PB, shame about the obscene head wind in final 5kDate of review: March 8, 2010
In short: Windy!Date of review: March 8, 2010
In full: NICE RUN AND DONE WELL ON MY TIME FOR 43 YEARS OLD. HOWEVER, WHEN I GET HOME MY 6 YEARS OLD LOVES TO LOOK AT MY MUG, T SHIRT OR MEDAL. NOT IN THE CASE OF THIS RACE. WE GOT A CHEAP BAG FULL OF PAPER NOTHING MORE. QUESTIONS WHERE ALL THE MONEY WENT ? THIS LET DOWN THE DAY. I WILL DO THE SALISBURY 10 MILE NEXT YEAR. PITY REALLY. Date of review: March 8, 2010
In short: Quick flat course, lovely scenary, jolly good show!In full: All in all a lovely race; just a shame about the very windy conditions on the return leg ruining any chance of a new PB. Without the wind it would have been ideal. Pedestrians and slow 5k runners did need to be negotiated at times. Very friendly and encouraging atmosphere; will be back next year.Date of review: March 8, 2010
In short: Good out and back raceIn full: Good fast (out) and slower (back) race due to wind direction. More challenging and fun for it :) Windy enough for the kite surfers to have blast on the sea! Very friendly atmosphere, good marshaling. Great effort for the organizers first event. Nice to see youth and family events offered. Definite PB potential. Recommended and fun for all. Date of review: March 8, 2010
In short: Enjoyable morning, course is out and back on prom with a lot of public in way!In full: Well organised race, a cold but sunny morning meant a lot of public walking on the course especially at the turn point. Would be a PB course but a strong cold easterly on the way back spoilt any chance. But a good event building up to sopme tougher challenges later in year.Date of review: March 7, 2010
In short: For a first time race well organised and definate pb raceDate of review: March 7, 2010
In full: NICE RACE EXCELLENT VIEWS.WELL ORGANISED FOR FIRST RACE.BUT NEEDS SOME WORK WITH MIXING 5K RUNNERS IN WITH 10K AT 5K TURN ROUND AND FEW MARSHALLS ALONG PROM TO KEEP WALKERS DOGS ETC OUT THE WAY APART FROM THAT WELL DONE ALL!!!Date of review: March 7, 2010
