As near as I can tell, it was deleted after a couple people pointed out that being a racist misogynist wasn't a great way to debate (and in fairness, they were called out by D/W fans as well). I'll see if I can find it. Or, you know, not and pretend that it doesn't exist. I think Carmen and this SD might be their greatest 1-2 punch since the Olympics if not ever, and I'd be sad if it didn't win in London, though. I really wish I could rewrite history a bit here (and make the completely healthy the post-Olympic season, which I have no doubt they would've won given the way their programs were more immediately successful and the ability to hit levels was quite remarkable all things considered). Because I suspect we're gonna see a thematic/technical retreat next year (a program more easily digestible for audiences; a program that they can peak with earlier and longer) I really want the sheer audacity of this FD rewarded. As for the lead/control debate.... honestly, anyone who chooses to frame the debate this way is projecting a little bit. I think Scott definitely takes the lead in interviews and media presence, but I think Tessa's also very adept and interesting in engaging with the media (the Team Orange interviews from TEB 2011 provided terrific insights to how they operate and are being ignored thoroughly by those who prefer to see it as something else). I think Tessa's got a bit of a lead when it comes to music choices, but I doubt they've skated to anything neither has wanted to. I don't know how you can watch their Olympic OD and not see them as anything but equals (the way Tessa says "Ready Freddy" as if to challenge Scott; his full throttled excitement after they finished. Amazing... and I totally need to go watch this dance right now. Twice. Okay back now). You know, knowing that Tessa was in pain throughout the Olympic season that they were able to nail this program so entirely really reaffirms just how tough and competitive they were (again, belying anyone who thinks they were bluffing at 4CC).
I find the notion that they're both being steam-rolled and controlled by each other ridiculous. Partnerships are about compromise, so if maybe Scott wasn't 100% sold on FF (which I have not heard before BTW), he probably realized how much it meant to Tessa and agreed because he trusts and respects her ... like good partners do. Sheesh, some people are so ridiculous. I won't even talk about it anymore because that's probably what they want in the first place and we know these allegations are false so there's no use defending it any further. On a more positive note, thanks for all the pics and links, guys! I love seeing Scott and Tessa goofing off/having fun. Sometimes it's really hard to believe they're only 23/25.
How long have these two skated together? There is no way they are together that long if one exercises complete control. Just because Tessa is nice doesn't mean she is a pushover. Just because Scott is protective of Tessa doesn't mean he makes all of the decisions. Honestly some folks just want to stir the pot.
Aw, thanks Carmen I, too, am surprised at the things I often see about P&B and their bronze last year and agree that there should be less of a gap between them and the top 2 teams. They are capable of getting their levels, have complex choreography and such solid skating skills. just look at their edges. It is also apparent to me that they really dance. Though I prefer W&P (personal preference--I just love them so much) and think B&S have wonderful material and have made significant improvements to their skating, I still think there is quite a gap between P&B and the teams below them. I really wish they were getting more credit for the difficulty of their programs along with their many other fine qualities. I share your concerns re: their absence at Euros, and am just hoping they will be able to bounce back in time for Worlds. They always peak at the right time, imo, and I hope this injury doesn't throw them off. I should add that I recognize the importance of quality in the area of transitions, so I know that polish is important, but at 4CC, V&M's SD looked incredibly polished so I do not understand why/how they were outscored in that category along with a few other PCS categories (though I know that the differences were smalll so the panel was not unanimous in their decision). I am not sure what to make of the FD marks b/c I do suspect, as professordeb noted, that their PCS suffered from the interruption, and I am fine with that for the most part (still puzzled about the transition mark). Bahahahaha! Well said, both of you. I am sick of seeing some people take such a patronizing tone when discussing Tessa. Though, as VarBar reminded us, one troll did take pity on Scott for being bullied by Tessa, lol. and iNap, you crack me up
I agree. You can say they weren't deducted for the stop, that it's 'not allowed' to affect the mark but lets be honest how could it not? In the back of the judges minds they had to be thinking if they give them the marks for the win how would that be perceived? Geez they gave them good enough marks as it was and it's still being questioned. All this crap/rumours about V/M is beyond vile. I realize there is hate for those that are successful but some of the stuff I've just read here is just beyond. Grow the F*#$ up! What the hell did these 2 ever do to deserve this hateful garbage? Is it any wonder they avoid social media? Also don't recall Scott ever saying he would skate with another partener. Only saw it ever suggested by some on here. I got the impression if Tessa was goin' out he was goin' with her. The way they speak about the injury it's just the impression they leave. Anyway really looking forward to seeing the way Worlds is gonna shape up in dance. Not only with V/M D/W but with the return (hopefully) of P/B and W/P. It'll be interesting to see if they lose any ground with the injuries. I hope not cause I love both those teams but I think it's gonna be tough with the Russian teams and Sochi on the horizon.
(BKF) caaaalm. One word: education. If you find yourself lucky enough to be a part of a circle of people who are thoughtful, critical thinkers, curious, and exposed to many different types of learning, encounters with bigoted misogynistic racists will and should be a massively repulsive jolt. These horrid encounters just reinforce my own world view, and then I remind myself that I have the power to not make the same choices as them. Online hate? It's way too macro a scope to really do anything about. So try to let it go? And just do your own thang...hope that your voice can get "out there" and helps represent an alternative, and join with others' with like voices so that together you can be louder.
Thank, Jess. great advice. Honestly, I am involved in anti-oppression work, so I am aware of how pervasive racism and misogyny are, yet it never ceases to shock me when people invoke racist tropes like this. Anyways, I edited my previous post as I realize it is best not to give that comment even more power by reiterating it.
One more Tessa photo from banquete http://sphotos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/285784_10152528537170517_160774811_n.jpg
pani, you're a treasure! I may not always understand what you are saying, but sometimes you come out with some gems ... and then there's the links to photos. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this post. You weren't rambling at all. I agree with everything you said regarding how PCS/judging is being presently marked and the impact (for the worse, IMO) on future programs. You hit upon pretty much everything that's bugged me about the scoring. There is so much that V/M and P/B (like Carmen Ovsiannikov said, thank you for including P/B in your assessment) do that's either a lot more difficult or a lot more refined than what D/W do, but it's not taken into consideration or ignored in the marks. Once upon a time, all of these things that V/M and P/B do better were highly valued and considered necessary to make it to the top. These days, it seems like rather than being rewarded for fantastic basic skating, line, unison, extension, difficult transitions, skating close together, truly dancing together, etc. etc. etc., the teams that bother tend to end up taking a hit in their scores instead... They're penalized in a way, IMO, for doing the things they should be. I still think there are a lot of politics behind the scoring right now, but if you just look at the message behind how the programs are getting marked, the only things that count are the elements (and not even really how well you do them) and how fast you can race from one to the other. That's not what I was taught and had drummed into my head for years about what good ice dancing is. Good ice dancing is what V/M and P/B do, and it's just not getting rewarded and/or valued right now. Consequently, other teams are going to look at this, and design their programs accordingly. It's such a shame as there are some teams out there (I/K immediately springs to mind) who have the talent and ability to do the kinds of things V/M and P/B do. Ice dance is so frustrating to me right now. I feel like everything I was taught over the years to be important is no longer so.
ITA. But recently, I've just resigned myself to accepting that this is the current trend and it won't change until at least after Sochi.
Was this January 18 press release ever posted here? Tessa Virtue, Scott Moir and Patrick Chan join RBC Olympians Program
what happened at this years 4cc reminded me so much of this http://youtu.be/o2dj8VBEicc this is why i dont understand the people who are saying that they only stopped at the middle of the program because they know they couldnt beat d/w or some shit like that some people are incorrigible
Just when you thought you couldn't love him/them anymore. Even though what happened at 4CC was very unfortunate, I think it goes to show what an amazing partnership that they have together and what amazing fans they have. I'm proud of us collectively for focusing on the positive rather than the negative (for the most part ) and I'm sure Tessa and Scott would be overwhelmed with all the support we give, even if she'll never hear it firsthand. Here's hoping they find a big fat bubble to stay in together til worlds where no one can touch them
sigh Love that serpentine lift! I wish we could've seen those programs in a year where Tessa wasn't recovering from surgery.
yea, please guys, don't add "sorry for rambling", "sorry for the rant" so often, for in the 99,999% of cases ( ) there's nothing to apologize for! we shouldn't be afraid to not say "the right thing", whatever this means. And this thread is currently "The" ice dance thread of FSU and this thanks also to your long analysis and observations. I finally got the chance to watch both teams at 4CC (I have no speed internet where I'm staying) and, regarding the difference between the top 3 couples, which is reflected in their skating, I think it's basically a difference of cultural background. D/W, as someone pointed out in the past, are not "dancing" as V-M do. Actually I think Team DW has invented a new kind of skating, which is not "dancing" in the traditional sense, but neither pair skating or "double single skating". It's something that somewhat combine the 3 of them and plus, adds a typical American type of show which is the musical. Their programs are all very theatrical, with the only exception of the Tango FD. But theatrical in the sense of the musical, that was born in 20th century thus has all the typical features of this age. It's a rather artificial form of art, influenced by cinema, vaudeville, popular music etc, that takes elements of the tradition and see them through a modern or post-modern filter. Evident case in DW, the Bollywood OD, indian dance and culture seen from a Western point of view. Think also of "West side story", which could be an other good theme for them. It's Romeo and Juliet seen from a modern American point of view, isn't it? Other than this syncretism, the musical is based on "colorfoul" entertainement with simple storylines and simple, sometimes stereotypical characters. I think all that I said can be applied to Davis and White's style. In some way, they even embody the American style of single skating, which is explosive, athletic, extrovert, often theatrical. You can see this even in Gymnastic (the opposition between American and Russian school). In DW case, what you see is what you get. In their FD's, besides, they tend to express emotional outbursts (i.e., pop music), more than feelings (classical music). one of the reasons why Davis and White are so loved in their country, is that they embody American culture, so the audience unconsciously see the reflection of their background in them. Culture is everything! I don't think I'm offending Davis and White if I say that Tessa and Scott's skating has more depth, in the sense that you feel there's something beyond their movements, something that misteriously reach our intellectual sphere and aechstetic perception. Needless to say, they are more "European", a certain vein of European culture, the nostalgic and contemplative elegance, the loyalty to tradition. All this comes from Zoueva's influence, of course, but mainly from their own personalities I think, and especially from Tessa, whom I consider "the second choreographer" of the team. the mark of her exquisite taste and brilliant intelligence is evident in each of their programs. I want to add, after watching Carmen at 4cc, that she is not only an extraordinary beautiful and smart woman, she's also one of the bravest and strongest athlete I've ever known. Pechalat-Bourzat, well, they're French if you see some movies from France or take a look at some dress shops in Paris, you'll understand why they are so original, sharp, sometimes bizzarre in chosing their themes. It's part of their background too. Throughout the 20th century, France was avant-garde in many branches of culture and arts. the French have a special tendency of seeing reality from a sharp, sarcastic, non-romantic and often pessimistic point of view. I know I've simplified much and maybe in the future I'll add more precise remarks about this subject
Thanks for this. I hate that you can tell that Tessa had been crying earlier at the beginning of video (and I wonder what Scott was saying to her). BTW the commentators sure had a lot to say, what were they saying? Also I concur there's no rambling that I see here, just interesting conversations. So everybody continue "rambling."

Even people who generally have no problem with fighting in hockey are panning what the Philadelphia Flyers did on Friday night, instigating a line brawl while losing to the Washington Capitals 7-0.
To refresh your memory, this one drew extra attention because it featured a goalie fight between the Flyers' Ray Emery and the Capitals' Braden Holtby, in which only Emery wanted to fight. "I basically said, 'Protect yourself,'" Emery said. "He didn't really have much of a choice."
CBSSports.com's Chris Peters summed it up this way:
"It's not the Capitals' fault that the Flyers are a veritable dumpster on fire rolling down a hill with a tire factory at the end of it. It's because the Caps players on the ice were there, wearing different colored jerseys and the Flyers needed a spark. Since they certainly weren't going to be able to get that spark by playing actual hockey, they used the only method they had left."
At the Flyers blog "Broad Street Hockey," a collection of photos was captioned succinctly: "You know every stereotype you've ever heard about the Flyers? Bunch of goons who can't play? Well, it's all true."

Subject | [jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1590) Stored-only fields automatically enable norms and tf when added to document |
Date | Wed, 08 Apr 2009 14:01:14 GMT |
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1590?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12697024#action_12697024 ] Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-1590: --------------------------------------- {quote} Patch looks good! All tests pass. That was trickier than I expected; thanks Uwe. I plan to commit in a day or two. {quote} The only tricky part was the FieldsReader. The original bug was fixed in a few lines (FieldInfo ctor and update()). {quote} It's a good catch, all the places in FieldsReader where we fail to carryover OTFAP from FieldInfo --> Field instance on the document. It's yet another example of how having the loaded Document "seem like" the indexed document causes problems. {quote} I am still not happy with the new FieldReader because it cannot replicate all indexing infos (but now does almost everything). I know, it does not affect functionality (as only the stored contents can be retrieved). In principle the Field instances should have *no* indexing options. Luke would the display nothing anymore, but for this case it would really be better to make the Field infos "public", so somebody could enumerate all fields and test then, which options were used during indexing. Mixing this with retrieval of stored fields is not good. One case is now not implemented correctly in FieldsReader: A binary stored field have a special if-clause in FieldsReader. The binary field is loaded as stored only, currently only omitTf and omitNorms are set (I added this). But e.g. INDEX is always false and so on. In principle for completeness, all options from FieldInfo should be replicated here. FieldsReader would be better to have a central method like copyFieldOptions(FieldInfo, Fieldable), that copies all options from FieldInfo to the Fieldable (without looking at the stored contents). The other if-cases should only initialize the stored parts and type. I think, I give it a try. The whole info is now more important: If somebody in the past had stored the string contents compressed, he must now use a binary field and compress himself. In this case, Luke would not display any indexing options anymore. This is not bad, but inconsistent. So the better case is to make the Field properties public not on the document level, but on the IndexReader level. > Stored-only fields automatically enable norms and tf when added to document > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-1590 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1590 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Index > Affects Versions: 2.4, 2.4.1, 2.9 > Reporter: Uwe Schindler > Assignee: Michael McCandless > Fix For: 2.9 > > Attachments: LUCENE-1590.patch, LUCENE-1590.patch, LUCENE-1590.patch > > > During updating my internal components to the new TrieAPI, I have seen the following: > I index a lot of numeric fields with trie encoding omitting norms and term frequency. This works great. Luke shows that both is omitted. > As I sometimes also want to have the components of the field stored and want to use the same field name for it. So I add additionally the field again to the document, but stored only (as the Field c'tor using a TokenStream cannot additionally store the field). As it is stored only, I thought, that I can left out explicit setting of omitNorms and omitTermFreqAndPositions. After adding the stored-only-without-omits field, Luke shows all fields with norms enabled. I am not sure, if the norms/tf were really added to the index, but Luke shows a value for the norms and FieldInfo has it enabled. > In my opinion, this is not intuitive, o.a.l.document.Field should switch both omit* options on when storing fields only (and also disable other indexing-only options). Alternatively the internal FieldInfo.update(boolean isIndexed, boolean storeTermVector, boolean storePositionWithTermVector, boolean storeOffsetWithTermVector, boolean omitNorms, boolean storePayloads, boolean omitTermFreqAndPositions) should only change the omit* and other options, if the isIndexed parameter (not this.isIndexed) is also true, elsewhere leave it as it is. > In principle, when adding a stored-only field, any indexing-specific options should not be changed in FieldInfo. If the field was indexed with norms before, norms should stay enabled (but this would be the default as it is). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: email@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com | |

Coco Thai Bistro is a cute little thai joint in downtown Narberth. They have a decent lunch deal where you get a soup or appetizer and an entree. It's not as good of a deal as some of the other joints (I'm thinking of you, Chiangmai in Conshy), but it's still pretty solid. It's a typical small, family-run joint, decorated with, well, as you could have guessed, lots of elephants
The coconut soup… with coconut milk, veggies, chicken, lemon grass, you know the drill. If you like coconut milk, good for you. If you don't, like me, then stay away!
I wasn't feeling soup that day so I went with the veggie dumplings. Aren't these adorable? They tasted great too. They look a little weird though, but don't let that dissuade you. They're delish and served with a sweet chili sauce. I loved the pickled cucumbers too.
The thai basil with tofu and a bunch of veggies. You know this is good.
I love me some drunken noodles so of course, that's what I got. I got it with chicken and I scarfed this all down!
This was the coconut tart, the dessert special of the day. It had a flaky bottom, raisins, walnuts, brown sugar, and coconut shavings, and was apparently very good and delicious. They definitely get points for presentation. We're pretty sure a family runs this place. It was sad that we were the only people in the dining room during our visit because the food is quite great and so is the service. If ever in Narberth, stop by for some delicious thai!

i've never seen vegetable dumplings like that before. very interesting :-) glad they were good.

dj's 58 sedan delivery
I recently purchased a 58 Chevy Sedan Delivery with a LT1 TPI 350 engine. While driving it home, I noticed that the fuel gauge did not work. After filling it up, still no difference. Today,while wiggling under the dash, I noticed no wires are connected to the two terminals on the back of the gauge--duh. I found two female connector, one blue and one red-- I hooked each one, turned on the key and when turning on the key, the needle would just flicker, so I reversed the wires and now it pegs out to the full reading..Any help would be appreciated.
Welcome DJBoen,
By any chance was the fuel tank full of fuel? Are you positive one of the two leads you found run to the connector to the tank fuel sender? Check for continuity to be sure. If the tank wasn't full possible the fuel sender in the tank is bad. Oh, I think a '58 Chevy sedan delivery would be very cool. Enjoy retirement. |
dj's 58 sedan delivery
No, I know that the tank is not full--i have driven roughly 100 miles. I will check the sender--thanks for your help. Yes, the 58 is really a cool ride, I have always wanted a Sedan Delivery, found this one over in Hesparia, CA and couldn't live without it--ha ha.
Remember...On a Chevy the sender housing has to be grounded, otherwise it will go past full and stay there. Could be your problem.
If that doesnt fix it, post a question in the electrical forum. This forum is for introductions only. |

Peace of Longjumeau
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Peace of Longjumeau (also known as the Treaty of Longjumeau or the Edict of Longjumeau) was signed on March 23, 1568 by Charles IX of France and Catherine de' Medici. This accord officially ended the second phase of the French Wars of Religion. Overall, the treaty confirmed the Edict of Amboise, which granted significant religious privileges and freedoms to the Huguenots. The treaty expired in August 1568.

CHICAGO — A string of armed robberies and burglaries in the Lakeview neighborhood have a lot of folks looking over their shoulders.
However, one woman is fighting back, CBS 2's Chris Martinez reports.
Kate Webster is an expert in self-defense.
Her mission right now is to keep people in Lakeview safe.
She's offering her self-defense lessons for free as a solution to the rise in crime in her neighborhood.
Her workshop filled up in just a few days.
Crime statistics show robberies in Lakeview are among the highest in the city.
"When they start to hear about robberies during the day or in their exact location they're like, 'Oh, that could be me,' " said Webster.
It's led to changes in security at Lakeview businesses, including the Lax Shop, 1216 W. Belmont, a lacrosse equipment shop owned by Shane Banner.
He's keeping the doors locked and buzzing in customers.
There was such a demand for Webster's free self-defense class that she offered a second night at the Thousand Wave Martial Arts center,

ROELAND PARK, Kan. — Roeland Park has become the second city in Kansas to ban discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
The city's mayor on Monday night broke the council's 4-4 tie. It was the second time the council had considered the anti-discrimination issue this summer.
Residents demanded a revote after a councilwoman was absent from the original vote in July. The law prohibits discrimination in employment, housing and public service.
Lawrence is the only other city in Kansas that includes sexual orientation and gender identity in its anti-discrimination ordinance. Kansas City, Missouri, has a similar ordinance.
Opponents of the ordinance say they will petition the city to put the issue to a citywide vote in November.

text: Pool Painting Painted pools account for approximately 20% of the pools in the area. Painted pools are much more common in the southern states. Millennium Pool services paints roughly 5 to 10 pools per year. We provide free estimates for painting pools. Before Painting After Painting Epoxy coatings are the most popular coating that we apply. Epoxy paint is the longest lasting and can be used on concrete, plaster, gunite, and fiberglass. Epoxy provides a hard, tough, durable coating, epoxies offer excellent stain, and abrasion protection. Epoxy paint can be applied thick enough to assist with smoothing rough surfaces. Epoxy paint requires 3 days to dry and the surface must be dry when applied. Epoxy paint will usually last 3 to 5 years and is available in many different colors. Another paint option that we can offer is water based acrylic paint. We can apply this paint on any type of surface, the cost savings by using acrylic is minimal. We often use this type of pool paint on commercial pools that are painted yearly. It may only last 1 year. Successful paint applications are dependent on numerous conditions. Sandblasting is highly recommended to remove existing paint. Proper mixing and application are a must to insure a smooth surface that cures properly. Basic Painting Procedures We Use We will determine the condition and type of paint was used last time on the pool. Drain and clean pool. Remove hydrostatic all relief plugs. Scrape old, loose paint. We will suggest owner consider sandblasting the surface if existing paint is in very poor condition. Additional charge will apply if required. Cracks in the pool shell will be cut with saw or grinder. Chip any soft or loose areas and fill with cement. Caulk cracks and patch any areas that are rough enough to accept cement with hydraulic cement. Additional charge will apply if required. Acid Wash the pool with a 30% water, 70% acid solution. We will then clean pool with a soap solution to neutralize the acid We allow surface to dry and begin the application. We use electric mixer to mix paint. We will use a paint with roller and sprinkle sandy nonskid material on steps. Owner must wait 3 days, then fill the pool. Owner may want to remove standing water if it rains after paint is applied. Use a sponge or leaf blower to dry pool. Pool Paint Color Chart Some Problems with Painted Pools Painted pools may fade over time, a light acid wash may help. Acid can remove dirt and chalking. Chalking results over time and causes a white powdery residue that can rub off. To avoid this, water chemistry is the key. The total alkalinity 150 PPM to 200 PPM. When alkalinity is too low the paint will rub off. Shock treatments can also cause the pool paint to chalk. If pool is filled too soon (before three days) causes fading or chalking. Super-chlorinated water can cause "bleached-out" look. The "shock" of calcium hypochlorite can cause a whitish deposit. Iron in water may leave deposits or stain the film. Epoxies will chalk to some degree due U.V. rays from the sun. Servicing areas: Virginia Pool Paint Maryland Pool Paint DC Pool Paint

The editor of the Egyptian government daily Al-Gumhouriyya, Muhammad 'Ali Ibrahim, who is also an Egyptian MP, wrote a series for the paper titled "Hamas, Damascus, Iran – The New Axis of Evil." In the series, he criticized Hamas, Syria, and Iran for their position vis-à-vis Gaza and the opening of the Rafah crossing. Ibrahim stated that Iran and Syria had conspired to keep the Palestinian problem unresolved and to take advantage of it to promote their interests in the region, and argued that Hamas was a tyrannical religious movement which was, like the Nazis in mid-20th-century Europe, pushing its people towards catastrophe by preferring Syria's and Iran's interests to those of the Palestinians. Also in his articles, Ibrahim came out against Qatar, accusing it of sympathizing with the Iran-Syria axis and of airing anti-Egyptian programs on the Qatari TV channel Al-Jazeera. A few days later, the editor of the Egyptian weekly Roz Al-Yousef, 'Abdallah Kamal, wrote in a similar vein. Both editors called Qatar hypocritical for criticizing Egyptian policy while at the same time attempting to forge ties with Israel and the U.S. Following are excerpts from the series by Muhammad 'Ali Ibrahim, and from the article by 'Abdallah Kamal: Al-Gumhouriyya Editor: Hamas, Syria, and Iran Are Trying to Distort Egypt's Image In the first article of his series, published December 22, 2008, Ibrahim wrote: "Since Damascus, Teheran, and Hamas are criticizing Egypt and accusing it of treason, [1] feel compelled to offer some clarification, in order to [help] the public understand the facts… which the Persians and the Syrians have been trying to distort… "[When it was mediating the negotiations for a calm (tahdia)], Egypt believed that the tahdia was the top interest of the Gaza [residents]… However, [Hamas leaders, including] Khaled Mash'al, Isma'il Haniya, and other Hamas members, did not understand the [nature of the] tahdia that Egypt was working for… These heroes believed that the innocuous missiles that they were firing at Sderot would compel Israel [to agree to a tahdia]… "When the [Palestinian national] dialogue failed, Egypt halted its mediation [between the Palestinian factions, thereby] destroying the hope of intra-Palestinian conciliation and exposing the political support that Hamas was getting [from Iran and Syria. However,] despite all Iran's and Syria's support [for Hamas], everyone must know that in Hamas's [conflict] with Israel, it was Egypt that was providing it with the strongest political [leverage]. Therefore, when Cairo halted [its mediation,] the main political buttress for the tahdia was shaken – and as a result, [the tahdia] was never attained… "One reason for the failure to achieve a hudna [ceasefire] was Hamas's refusal to make peace with Fatah and its rejection of the two-state solution [to the Palestinian problem] for which the entire world had been hoping…" [1] Syria and Iran Have Conspired to Exploit the Palestinian Cause for Their Own Interests Ibrahim's second article of the series, published December 23, 2008, stated: "When, in late January and early February 2008, Hamas began urging the Gaza residents to breach [the Egyptian border], it became clear that [Hamas] was hoping to establish an Islamic Emirate in Sinai… Hamas is well aware that Egypt would never agree to take it upon itself to govern Gaza – which is what Israel is trying to do; however, if Egypt is subjected to Arab and Islamic pressure to accommodate Hamas in the Sinai for humanitarian reasons – [that is,] in order to save [it] from starvation, siege, and repeated attacks – the international agreements [in control of the border crossing will be invalidated]… "[The latter scenario was devised] jointly by Damascus and Teheran, for a number of reasons. Firstly, [they wanted] Egypt to be preoccupied with its national security. In this case, the Palestinian problem would not be resolved as desired by the largest Arab country [Egypt] and the international community – that is, by establishing two states, each with its own capital. "Secondly, [Damascus and Teheran wanted] the Palestinian problem to be gradually removed from the hands of the Egyptian negotiator – who had become familiar with its minute details and whose reputation inspired Arab, regional, and international [circles] with respectful admiration – so that it would become a bargaining chip for Damascus and Teheran. At the same time, [Damascus] was trying to make [the Palestinian problem] part of a Golan Heights deal, meaning that the Palestinian people would be dependent not only on Lebanon's wishes but on Syria's as well. [The outcome] would be that Syria would bring the Palestinian problem back to its starting point…" Ibrahim further stated: "It is in Iran's interest to keep the Palestinian problem unresolved until the Iranian nuclear crisis is over, because Iran believes… that it can trade Hamas for political gain, while at the same time significantly improving its own image … We have before us a well-planned conspiracy, as well as an agenda, devised by Damascus and Teheran to pin the Palestinian problem to Iran's and Syria's interests, and for this purpose they have been using Hizbullah and Hamas to great effect…" [2] "Religious Movements [Such As Hamas and Hizbullah] Contain Elements Similar to Nazism – As Do Many Tyrannical Parties That Brought Disaster Upon Their Respective Nations In his third article, published December 24, 2008, Ibrahim wrote: "Hamas believes, as do the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, Hizbullah, and other religious organizations, that everything it does is always right… Hamas, like any other ideological movement, believes that because it was elected by the people, the people no longer have a say, and that because it won the election, it can treat the people [as it sees fit]. Religious movements contain elements similar to Nazism, as do many tyrannical parties that brought disaster upon their respective nations… "Hamas's [statements] and actions are [characteristics of a group that is] trying to bring destruction upon its people… Egypt is concerned about the Palestinians, while Hamas is not – not one bit. Hamas is holding the entire Palestinian people hostage, saying: 'We will live together, or die together.' Hamas is imposing suicide [ideology] on the Palestinians, because it sees itself as their legitimate ruler. "For Hamas, it doesn't matter that balance of forces is completely against them – they remain arrogant. The Palestinians did indeed elect [Hamas]; however, [Hamas] did not make Palestinian wellbeing [its top priority], but rather chose to join the axis that is opposed to the moderate Arab [countries] – the Syria-Iran axis, which is against Egypt and Saudi Arabia. "Hamas's position and Egypt's position are diametrically opposed. Cairo believes that it is imperative to rescue the Palestinians from the catastrophe, while Hamas holds that there would be nothing wrong if [all] the Palestinians perished, because then they will be martyrs and enter Paradise. [Hamas also believes] that it is more important to strengthen the Syria-Iran axis of evil, which sponsors the religious movements in Iraq, Lebanon, and Palestine… "Hamas is pushing Gaza towards a massacre, while all the while shouting that the Arabs or the Egyptians have failed to come to their aid. The Palestinians must realize the truth – that [Hamas's] actions are pushing [Gaza] towards a massacre… "This shows that Hamas is part of Tel Aviv's plan to eliminate the [Palestinian] problem. Hamas may not be aware of this; or possibly it is, but it considers Syria's and Iran's interests a hundred times more important than the interests of those who voted it [into power]." [3] The Iranian-Syrian Axis Will Not Drag Egypt Into War with Israel In a January 1, 2009 article in Al-Gumhouriyya, Ibrahim wrote: "[Opening] the [Rafah] crossing is [only] one of the many objectives of this Iranian-Syrian conspiracy against Egypt. The Iranian-Syrian axis aims to rapidly drag Egypt into a confrontation with Israel. However, they [i.e. Iran and Syria] forget that Egypt long ago decided to embrace peace. Egypt has fought enough, and it will never [sacrifice] its life to defend others… "If Hizbullah leader [Hassan Nasrallah] thinks that Egypt should join the front [against Israel], then we must ask [him]: Where are the funds that you are accumulating? Where are the Shihab 1, Shihab 2 and Shihab 5 missiles, and all the other missiles that Tehran test-fired in order to frighten the enemy of Allah and your enemy? Do you wage war only in front of the television cameras? Are Tehran's missiles [only] for show? [While] the Israeli war machine attacks Gaza, you attack Egypt. Your heroes [sit] trembling in your hideouts -[yet] you ask, 'Where is Egypt?'… "[Hamas leader Khaled] Mash'al, in his folly, considers himself a hero, issuing orders from his hideout in Damascus or Tehran to his counterparts in Gaza to kill themselves. "No resistance [movement] has its decisions made by others. Khaled Mash'al is not a free [agent], [for] his decisions are controlled by Tehran. He is not murdering the Palestinians to liberate Palestine – which he is completely incapable of doing [i.e. liberating Palestine] – but to prevent [Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud] 'Abbas from negotiating with Israel. Can there be greater folly than this?… "Egypt will never [let itself] be dragged into confrontation with Israel while Iran sits quietly [far away], issuing orders that are carried out by its lackeys. Our armed forces will never fight to defend Syria, whose army, as far as I know, has not fired a single bullet since 1973… "Hamas has no future in Palestine. What it has done to the Palestinians, not even Israel has done. [The Hamas government] is the first [Muslim] government in the world to prevent its citizens from making the Hajj, and it the third [Arab] regime to massacre its own people, after Saddam Hussein's and Hafez Al-Assad's. Must the Egyptian army defend it? Must we defend lunatics who have butchered their own people, held the wounded hostage, prevented [their citizens] from making the Hajj, and, worse yet, murdered one of our sons [i.e. the Egyptian officer killed in a clash with Hamas at the Rafah crossing]?…" Ibrahim also criticized Qatar, calling it hypocritical for attacking Arab countries while itself striving to establish relations with Israel and the U.S.: "Washington once had one protectorate in the Middle East – Israel – but now it has two: Doha and Tel-Aviv… Qatar is the Arab country with the most intensive trade relations with Israel… Qatar was the first country to sell Israel more [natural] gas than Egypt, and at lower prices – and nobody opposed this. Qatar's prime minister and foreign minister, Hamad bin Jasim bin Jaber Aal Thani, is friendly with Israel's foreign minister, Tsipi Livni. The letters and gifts he sent her on her birthday indicate a belated adolescent [crush on her]. He [even] preferred to buy a summer house in Nahariya to vacation with his Israeli friends, whom he likes more than the British… "The U.S. military operations base [in the Middle East] is in Doha – and it is the largest U.S. military base outside the U.S. It was from there that [the U.S.] launched its artillery attack on Iraq prior to its 2003 invasion, and there that it conducted maneuvers in preparation for this [operation]… Qatar built this base for the Americans at its own expense… True, Qatar is occupied by the U.S. – but this is by [Qatar's] its own consent and by the demand of [Qatar's] masses. [This occupation] pleases [Qatar], and is based on its mutual interests [with the U.S.]… [Now] this occupied country is acting to convene an Arab summit, and is calling upon the large Arab countries to attend it. Sometimes it even goes so far as to think it can issue orders…" [4] Roz Al-Yousef Editor: Iran, Syria, and Qatar Strive for Regional Hegemony – At Egypt's Expense In a January 3, 2009 article, the editor of the Egyptian daily Roz Al-Yousef, 'Abdallah Kamal, likewise attacked the Syrian-Iranian-Qatari axis: "Several years ago, and its longstanding alliance with Iran notwithstanding, Syria became the third member of the troika, that comprises the leading Arab [countries] and was formed in the wake of the Second Gulf War… "The first member of this troika was Egypt; the second was Saudi Arabia. However, [since then], Syria has slowly… fallen into the embrace of Iran – whose [policies are blatantly] at odds with Arab interests because of its Persian ethnicity, its Shi'ite faith, and its political agenda – which is completely opposed to that of the Arabs. "The main impediment to Iran's influence in the region is Egypt's political prominence. [This is why Iran] has been trying to remove Egypt from the arena for the past quarter century or more… [it is attempting] to push it into a military confrontation with Israel that will undermine its economic and political stability for the next 25 years at least, and will trap it into a no-exit security situation (by pushing the Palestinians into Sinai and making them a demographic time bomb for Egypt)… "Iran is even trying to topple the Egyptian regime, or at least to [challenge its] moral [legitimacy], so as to exert every [possible] pressure on it, making it lose its political influence in the region… The optimal arena for accomplishing this goal has been Gaza… "Iran has helped Hamas manufacture rockets, [for example] by smuggling warheads and [missile] guidance systems into Gaza – made in China, Korea, or wherever. Hamas manufactures the rockets with the gunpowder, pipes, and tail sections it receives. "[Iran] also supplies $40 million a month in funds ($25 million for Hamas and $15 million for [Palestinian Islamic] Jihad)…" [5] [1] Al-Gumhouriyya (Egypt), December 22, 2008.

Electronic System-Level (ESL) Design
Keysight provides the most accurate communications system design tools which accelerate PHY development and verification time by reducing cross domain iterations. With Keysight, you'll be able bring real-world effects higher in the design validation process.
ESL Design Challenges
- Analog/RF and baseband/DSP/embedded teams often work in relative isolation in the design or HW validation phases, increasing the risk of time consuming and expensive iterations.
- Traditional single domain "point tools" have poor to no interaction with the real world and rely on mathematical models to capture real-world effects.
- Validating hardware after systems achieve hardware integration may mask critical design flaws and require complicated physical test benches for verification of final designs.
What's New
- How to Design Phased Array Systems
- Keysight 5G Trial System Design and Validation Solution Demo
- Learn about 5G technologies "everything everywhere and always connected"

Prior to race day I perhaps, begrudgingly, sent out best wishes to other competitors. I wanted nothing, but the best for all those participating, and felt selfish about how I was feeling internally. Race day was upon me before I knew it, and because I love our sport I wanted to watch and cheer on each person who was writing the final chapter of their remarkable journey. I also followed the race throughout the day because I had volunteered to help moderate live coverage on irunfar.com. I didn't want to go into my shift blind, but psychologically it was challenging to stay engaged. With this said, I began to wonder how other athletes cope with the mental aspects of being sidelined.
To help gain some insight I turned to ultra runners Ellie Greenwood and Cassie Scallon. Both elite ladies have dealt with major and minor injuries which have taken them from the top of their game to extended periods off the trail.
I wanted to start with how being injured may impact a runner and their sense of self/identity. When I asked Ellie Greenwood whether or not she feels as if she has lost part of her identity when she is sidelined she shared that "Running is very central in my day-to-day life and so without it I feel lacking in purpose and generally a little lost. Yes, I have other things in life but a key focus on my day to day life is gone when I am injured." To add to this, Cassie Scallon shared that she isn't the same person when she can't run and feels crabbier, lazy and blah. She continued with "I feel a little empty without having my time on the trails to think things through and dream up ideas." Personally I can relate to both ladies and find myself feeling disoriented and agitated.
Identities seem to be in flux when sidelined and we have the choice at what level to stay connected with the sport. When sidelined, Ellie seems to stay involved at various levels. In 2013, I was amazed and in awe to see her at Western States despite not being able to toe the line. She shared the following with me when I asked her about last year: "I made sure I had things to do, like tweet for iRunFar, as having a purpose and keeping busy distracted me from being disappointed with not being able to race. I'm not much of one for hanging out at the sidelines. I do try to keep involved, maybe volunteer at races when injured but it can be mentally hard to do that as you surround your self with runners and all you want to do is run! It's hard to hang out with runners who are talking and doing the one thing you really want to do but can't."
Personally I know that I withdraw extensively from the running world when I am hurt. I rely a lot on my husband, doctors and physical therapists, but where does top runner Cassie Scallon turn when injured? "I turn, definitely, to family. They are more concerned about my injuries and me damaging myself than even I am. My running friends have been hugely supportive -- most have gone through something like this themselves and know how much it sucks. We have gone on walks, had dinners, played board games and gone for ice cream. It's also been a good time to spend a little more time with non-running friends."
I personally have come to learn that there will be ups and downs during an illness or injury just like training for a race. We can take each obstacle in stride or let it overpower us. Reach out to those you are comfortable with and share what you are feeling physically and emotionally. Utilize your resources from doctors and physical therapists to nutrionalists and psychologists. I will leave you with quotes from Cassie and Ellie as they both sum it up well in a sentence.
"Injury sucks, but I've been through it before, so I know there is hope!" –Cassie Scallon
"I try to remind myself that I didn't get injured overnight and so nor will I recover overnight!" – Ellie Greenwood

Helen Rochfort, Cute bag alert
This week I went along to a press day for Eskimo PR, and in amongst drooling over some gorgeous shoes and light spring knitwear I spied what is going to be either the hottest Christmas present for grown ups this year or become a staple part of the bloggers wardrobe.
I am a HUGE fan of Helen Rochfort bags and the brand in general, but the bag that is going to be hitting the website TOMMORROW is absolutely gorgeous.
According to Helen, the bag will be on the site Monday so get in there fast as it is definitely going to be a BIG seller and it is Limited Edition so HURRY!
Plus it's only £29!!!!
You can order yours on http://www.helenrochfort.com
What do you think? Is it not the most gorgeous bag ever?
Let me know what you think and if you are going to be ordering one.
I think I will be.

We consider a classic "paradox" where a simple inductive proof seems to clash with intuition. Though the proof makes clear that the naive intuition is wrong, it's hard to pinpoint exactly where the intuition's logical error is. After discussing the paradox at some length with my family, we came up with an angle of attack that gives an intuitive framework that matches the math and makes clearer why the naive intuition is wrong.
The situation is as follows. Dragons are a perfectly honest and rational species with color vision and either red or blue eyes. One hundred red-eyed dragons are on an island and are sworn to a two-part pact:
- they will not communicate with each other, look at reflections, or otherwise directly find out what color eyes they have, and
- if they can logically deduce some day that they have red eyes, then they will leave the island that night.
The dragons live for years on the island, each of them seeing ninety-nine red-eyed dragons but none of them able to logically deduce that they too have red eyes. One day, a perfectly honest visitor comes to the island, announces that at least one of the dragons has red eyes, and leaves.
If you haven't heard this before, try to figure out before continuing: what happens?

The next day we had hoped to explore the town some more but it was freezing. We both decided to hit the road and head back but not before taking a few more pictures of the hotel and springs. Another idea that we had for the trip back was to detour up to Black Canyon of the Gunnison, but we decided to save this for a future trip (and blog post) of it's own.

Dear Donors, The entire community of Mubiza and I would like to thank everyone who has given to this worthy cause. It has been a long, and at times taxing, process, but in the end we have succeeded in getting the new building block at Mubiza built! I congraluate all donors, as it is as much an accomplishment for you as it is for the community. At the start of the 2010 school year, there will be 2 new classrooms for grades 5 and 6. These classrooms will greatly improve the level of education they will receive - a place where they can focus properly, not be distracted by things such as rainstorms or even wandering chickens. In addition, they will have a brand new computer lab which will open their eyes to new horizons. The school staff, the students, and the community at large are very excited for this new era at Mubiza. You as donors have done so much to drastically change the course of education and knowledge in this village, and I cannot express how thankful we all are for your concern, commitment, and patience for the project. Without you, we never have accomplished such a great feat. I thank you all once more. Sincerely, Griffin Vanze
Update: Hello from the Caprivi Strip! After months of waiting for approval, we finally have the go-ahead from the central government in Windhoek! This week we will be contacting the contractors to begin construction as soon as possible. By mid-August, the foundation of the building should be complete. After each period of 30 days, the Education Planner from the regional office in Katima will review progress and pay accordingly – the more work that is completed, the higher the percentage of the total cost that is paid.
It's about time as well! In this current term, students in Grades 5-7 have been completing collage projects on various topics including "body language" and "essentials versus luxuries." Once the building is complete, the walls will be ideal places to put up their hard work, reassured that the elements will not tear them down.
However, we want to hear what you as donors think about the progress of the building. Frustrated that it has taken so long? Excited that it is finally starting? Thoughts or perspectives to share about development work? Please give feedback! I always appreciate words of encouragement, as well as constructive criticism that may help me improve my method of motivating progress with the project.
Thanks so much to all who have given and supported this project. The snowball that is our vision is picking up momentum and is starting to be realized. Though it may not seem like it, 90% of the work to complete the whole process has been done. Stay tuned for more updates!
From Mubiza, Griffin Vanze
As you may recall, the project includes building a new classroom facility. The Namibian Government has agreed to build it if we contribute half of the construction costs. We have almost raised enough money to fulfill this commitment. We are so close that we have asked the Namibian Government to start and have pledged the needed funds. The funding request, which lapsed while we raised our half of the construction cost, is in the process of being reapproved by the Namibian Government, so we are anticipating starting construction soon. Griffin has 15 computers ready to go in the computer lab once the construction is complete. We are hoping to be posting pictures of a completed school building within the next 6 months.

For a complete schedule of events, visit the Field of Honor website.
A new 5k run inspired by Jenny's warning cry to her childhood friend -- "Run Forrest Run!" -- will kick off Murrieta's Field of Honor festivities, a week-long series of events that culminates in the city's annual Veterans Day parade on Nov. 11 and the Patriots Ball on Nov. 12.
Money raised by the Run Forrest Run 5k, which could end up totaling around $5,000, will be donated to "Forrest Gump" star Gary Sinise's charitable foundation, which builds homes for veterans, like his Lt. Dan character, who who have lost limbs during their service.
The race was organized by Jim Yanoschik, a dentist and runner who has served as president of the local Rotary Club, to help boost turnout for the Field of Honor's opening ceremony, which starts at 10:15 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 5.
"My direction was to get people to the field," he said Thursday.
About 200 people have already signed up to run and Yanoschik said he's expecting maybe 20 or 30 will sign up on race day.
The 9 a.m. race will start near the senior center in downtown Murrieta. The route sends runners south on Adams Avenue to Guava Street, where they'll turn around, and brings them back to the finish line in Town Square Park.
Registration -- $25 or $20 for military members and their families -- opens at 7:30 a.m.
Yanoschik has picked up dog tag medals for participants and he's stuffed around 250 goodie bags, which he's hoping will be enough.
"I was having a nightmare where I threw a 5k and nobody showed," he said. "Now the nightmare is I'm being zombie attacked and all these people are coming in."
U.S. Marine Cpl. Juan Dominguez, a Temecula resident who was given a home that was built with the help of Sinise's foundation, is scheduled to appear to talk about the foundation's efforts and hand out the awards.
Yanoschik said runners are encouraged to wear red, white and blue kits or Forrest Gump costumes and there will be special awards given out for festive attire.
Another new wrinkle for this year's Field -- which is presented by the Rotary Club, the city of Murrieta and a host of sponsors that includes the Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians -- is a Military Resource and Services Expo.
The expo, which runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 5, will feature around 40 different organizations and companies that offer services or programs for veterans.
"It's pretty exciting," said Dee Fether, president of the Women's Council of Realtors, Southwest Riverside County, which is organizing the expo. "Everyone is exited to see how this turns out; hopefully it brings out the community."
Some of the expo tables will be set up in a huge tent that will be erected on Town Square Park. Others will be located nearby, including vendors serving up free hot dogs, popcorn and chips.

First cycle results
First cycle results
Just finished my first cycle of any kind. It looked liek this
Wk 1-2: trans 1-test- 250mg ED, trans 4-ad- 500mg ED
Wk 1-8: 1-test cyp- 200mg EOD, 4-ad cyp- 360mg EOD
Wk 8-10: M-Dien- 10mg ED
diet: I consumed 4500+ calories throughout the cycle, usually around 5k on training days and as high as 5,500 on training days for the last 3 weeks.
training: i followed a DFHT high frequency split, splitting my upper and lower body into am and pm sessions, for 8 total sessions spread out over 4 days each week. I loaded for 3 weeks and followed up with a deloading period every 4th week with less volume and a 10% load reduction.
Started at 6'0", 203 lbs
Finished at 228 lbs
strength gains: (those with weeks listed were discontinued 2/3 through cycle)
bench press: start: 275x5, end: 335x5
deadlift: start: 505x1, end: 585x1
low incline bench-- start: 280x1, Week 7: 290x3
barbell rows-- start: 225x8, end: 295x5
seated military-- start: 155x5, end: 195x5
full squats-- start: 350x1, end: 405x1
stiff leg deadlifts-- start: 335x8, end: 375x8
decline db press-- start: 105s x8, week 7: 130s x9
only noticeable sides was some occasional lethargy which would occur between my workout sessions, after my big post workout meals. A nap would fix this. Some light acne breakouts on upper body with no noticeable facial breakouts. Found the occasional hair here and there but I have long hair and so it may be more prone to coming out. I never found more than 2 or 3 on my pillow the next morning so the shedding was definitely under control if it occurred at all.
I am obviously very pleased with this first cycle and my strength and size increases. I will begin PCT tomorrow with nolva and 7-oh and will cut back the volume in my training by 30-40%. I noticed little bloating from the 4-ad so if I can stay up over 220 through PCT I'll be satisfied.
I still have some of the 'pain-free orals' left and plan to run the 1-test cyp w/ clen/eca, and mohn for a cutter in a few months. After that it'll be time to gradute to the big boy supplements. - 01-01-2005, 09:32 PM

Kellys Buy 7-Figure Colt at Magic Millions
Prominent U.S.-based owners Jon and Sarah Kelly secured a Redoute's Choice colt in the first seven-figure transaction of this year's Magic Millions Gold Coast yearling sale Jan. 10 in Queensland.
Coincidentally, in making their first purchase at the sale, the newcomers from Rancho Santa Fe, Calif. bought the colt for $1 million ($894,814 in U.S. dollars) from John and Sarah Kelly of Australian consignor Newhaven Park.
Seated next to Jon Kelly, trainer Gai Waterhouse and bloodstock agent John Harron outbid Damion Flower and Gerald Ryan to secure the handsome bay colt out of the winning Encosta de Lago mare Hades. He is the second foal out of his dam, who is a daughter of 2003 Australian champion 2-year-old filly Hasna.
Current plans call for the session-topping colt to remain in Australia to race with Waterhouse.
"He is probably the nicest young colt in the sale," said Jon Kelly, a retired television and radio executive who, with his wife, has campaigned a number of stakes winners including grade I winners Borrego, whom they bred and campaigned as majority owners in a partnership, and Vacare.
"He has a great shoulder and hip on him. He might go as far as a mile. He needs to grow a little bit, but he has all the goods," Kelly said. "He is from a beautiful mare, so he is very well bred and he meets the criteria that I set up for acquisitions, so I am very pleased to buy him."
Magic Millions managing director Vin Cox and the Kelly family have been friends for many years.
"It gave me great personal satisfaction with the sale of the colt to Jon and Sarah," Cox said. "You could say I was even a little emotional."
Also on the sale's third day, Coolmore's Tom Magnier went to the session's second-highest price of $700,000 ($628,648) for a Fastnet Rock colt out of Headway, Australia's champion 2-year-old filly of 2008-2009.
The colt was consigned by Milburn Creek, agent for Tony and Deslee Santic's Makybe.
Redoute's Choice and Fastnet Rock dominated the five highest prices on the day, with Arrowfield Stud's Redoute's Choice filly out of Luna Bella selling for the third-highest price of $500,000 ($448,921) to Harron.
Trainer Chris Waller went to $460,000 ($413,023) to land Newgate Farm's Fastnet Rock filly out of group I-placed Fleur De'Here.
Waterhouse and Harron teamed again to buy Newgate Farm's Fastnet Rock filly out of I Promise for the co-fifth highest price of $400,000 ($359,263).
Baramul Stud's Street Cry colt out of Kakakakatie sold for the same price to Medallion Thoroughbreds as did Coolmore's Encosta de Lago colt out of Melito, who sold to Katsumi Yoshida of Japan.
"It's been a remarkable few days and the spirited bidding continues," Cox said at the conclusion of the third day of trading.
"It's great to see the clearance rate still over 88%; that is a phenomenal result and a credit to our team for selecting a catalog of horses that so appealed to buyers."
There have been 455 horses to sell thus far for a cumulative aggregate of $63,447,500 ($56,969,082), a gain of 13.7% compared with the first three days at last year's sale.
The cumulative average price of $139,445 ($125,239) is up 4.2% and the cumulative median $120,000 ($107,770) is 14.3% higher.
The Magic Millions Gold Coast yearling sale continues Jan. 11, starting at 6 p.m. local time.
