BOONEVILLE – The way Blue Mountain coach David Mason sees it. that's one down and hopefully a bunch more to go.
Mason's Cougars won their 26th game Monday night, beating Pine Grove 78-44 in the opening round of the Division 1-1A Tournament at Booneville High School.
Blue Mountain's immediate goal is to win the division tourney championship. The ultimate goal is the same as everybody's this time of year – reach Jackson.
"We were starting out 0-0 tonight," Mason said. "The record (26-3) is great. Winning the Tippah County Tournament was great, but we have bigger goals in mind.
Blue Mountain advanced toThursday's 4 p.m. semifinals, where it will play today's Thrasher-Falkner winner. A win there and the Cougars are hoping for a rematch against Biggersville.
The Lions (21-6), the tournament's top seed, play a 5:30 Thursday semifinal againstWheeler or Jumpertown.
Biggersville has handed Blue Mountain two of its three losses – 87-83 and 63-61.
"We don't mention the other team (Biggersville)," Mason said."We're focused
on the task at hand. That was step one tonight."
Blue Mountain's big guns – guards Ismael Ruedas and Jacob Girley – scored 17 points apiece.
Girley scored all of his in the first half with nine of them coming on 3-pointers. He helped fuel a 15-0
run in the second quarter that broke open the game. Ruedas scored 15 of his points in the first half. He had two layups in the scoring surge and capped the half with a 3-pointer to give the Cougars a 50-21 lead.
Pine Grove got 14 points from Jordan Staggs and 10 from Kane Tigrett.
MOUNTAIN 34: Bryana Davis scored 24 points and Anna Fryar added 11 to lead the Lady Panthers (24-7).
Pine Grove plays tonight's Biggersville- Jumpertown winner at 8:30 p.m. in Thursday's semifinals.

Where I stayed
This has been another great day.We came from Richfield Ut. to Leadville Co. and had the most wondeful drive. Hwy 70 has the best interstate scenery, overall, of any that we have been on. We had good weather, it was warm & cold in places, a little rain, and I just looked out the window of the motel and it is snowing now.
Leadville is a neat little old mining town (Gold & Silver) that boast of the highest elevation for any incorporated town in USA, 11,000'+-. Also Doc Holiday stayed hear for several yrs. At one time it had 108 Saloons. Most of the orignal buildings have been perserved and restored and in use. This town has one of those Narrow Guage R R, 2 1/2 hr ride. This is a good place to put on your to see list.
No wild life but Ralph showed up again but did not stay with us long, I think it is mating season for crows.
On to Pikes Peak next & wishing for a clear day.

Streamlined, ultra-light support.
Not unlike a certain British espionage organization, the saddle craftsmen at Fizik save 00 distinctions for their most trusted saddles. A focus on lightness and flexibility led Fizik to the creation of the Arione 00 Saddle, made for gram-counting racers and the most discerning cyclists who aren't prepared to sacrifice weight, comfort, or performance in a saddle. The saddle's secret to shaving considerable weight lies within its Composite Carbon 00 shell, minimal padding, and one-piece Mobius Carbon Braided rails.
The Mobius Carbon braided rails use a texturized carbon cloth wrap for secure clamping, which enhances their durability, and they deliver a considerable reduction in weight to the saddle overall compared to other rail materials. During racing and training rides, the rails will absorb road vibrations and offer a stiff, rigid platform for the carbon Wingflex shell to sit atop. The Wingflex shell itself uses a foam layer sandwiched between two carbon layers to achieve its own balance of stiffness with some flex, adding subtle suppleness to the saddle without taking away from its responsiveness. Fizik further shows its close attention to detail with the Arione 00 by flattening the clamping zones' shape to achieve higher levels of vertical compliance.
Twin Flex technology allows the saddle to flex downward where your inner thighs rest to distribute pressure evenly. Furthermore, the Wingflex shell facilitates downward flex along the outside of the saddle to accommodate pedaling movement without irritation. Fizik finishes the Arione 00 with a smooth Microtex 00 Cover to protect it from the elements, keeping its weight impressively low — just 140g — by not adding heavy cushioning. According to Fizik, the saddle's lack of significant padding suits it to riders who have flexible spines, termed "Snake" riders within Fizik's Spine Concept, Fizik's saddle-fitting tool.

But the loot specialisation is not necessarily the spec I'm playing.
I don't care that I got the resto item, I just found it curious as their comments were ambiguous.
They could easily have meant the spec you were playing, rather than not the spec you're playing, but the spec you've opted to receive loot for. That way, as I was for example playing as a feral, they would figure I was most likely to be wanting to level/play as feral and give me the feral weapon first, then any subsequent ones are randomised.

Beretta A400 I have in camo with 26" barrel very fast, light and reliable. It doesn't have a raised rib so lines up for me better.
Beretta A400 I have in camo with 26" barrel very fast, light and reliable. It doesn't have a raised rib so lines up for me better.
A400 here too, great gun really softens the kick of the 3 1/2" shells
all of them are great guns. Pick the one that fits and feels the best. I dont mean shouldering them in a tee shirt. Take the clothing in that you wear duck hunting and see wich feels the best. I almost bouth a shotguna few years ago that was fantastic at shouldding until I put on my jacket, and it went form OMG to WTF in .2 sec. And if you can fire them even better.
X 3 gets my vote.... I'm getting ready to buy a backup as mine is showing its age... Stills performs flawlessly!

Beretta a400 extreme go to youtube and watch the videos its awesome. Sold my SBE to get this one and love it!
I've had a SBE for about 3 duck seasons now and I love it. Only had it not fire once and that was this year hunting a sandy river bank. It was snowing the temp was about -5 with about a -25 windchill. No ones gun worked consistently that day. Everything from my gun to my buddies beretta and 870.
Benelli are hard to beat.
I agree with 43x, buy the one that fits. I personally own the Benelli as my main gun but have a Beretta as a back up or for days when I looking for a little less recoil. I prefer where the safety is on the Beretta because I do not have to alter my hand position to take safety off(I'm 6'3" tall) but my Hunting Partner is 5'4" and has trouble taking the safety off. My wife runs the Maxus 3" version and loves it. No problems with any of the guns but when time to clean them thoroughly, prefer Benelli hands down!

Hi Girls.
I've been readng your travelog. I just wanted to say thanks for posting such an insightful commetary on the impact of the genocide in Rwanda. I think travelpod can be used for more than simple 'where we went' stories, and yours is one of the best.
Thanks for taking the time to open my eyes.
If you find yourself in my neck of the woods (Pretoria and around - see my pod off_road_clara), there's some grub and floor space waiting. Or at least I will try!
Have fun and safe travels,
Genocide reminders and colobus monkeys

We managed to cross over into Rwanda with no problems (except for having to part with $60 cash for the visa...grrrrr).
We tried in vain to catch a lift with private cars heading to Kigali - so took the boring option of a minibus. We sat waiting for the bus to fill up as we snacked on local food and spoke with the locals. First impressions were good, very good in fact. The locals were extremely friendly and welcoming, and there weren't any other tourists about. The bus left before long and we had a most enjoyable trip as we sped towards Kigali. The landscape was stunning - tea plantations in the valleys and farmer plots in the rolling hills. More enjoyable than the scenery however were the passengers on our bus who most unexpectantly broke into song, which they continued the entire way to Kigali.
Kigali was also an unexpected surprise. It's a small city built on several rolling hills, so as we arrived and drove through the city at dusk, all we could see around us were zillions of fairy lights - houses above us in the hill overlooking ours, and below us in the valleys. It was lovely. Kirsty and I both took an instant liking to the city.
Up bright and early the next morning we started to assess our options. We trekked into town to check out the shops (awesome cheap souvenirs!!) and the tourist office before heading down to the main Genocide Museum. The museum was completed only a year ago, to coincide when the UN first recognized that the atrocities which happened in Rwanda were in fact, genocide. The museum is free, and in a lovely location in one of the valleys of the city.
The main section taking up all of the downstairs area, is about the genocide in Rwanda. I didn't know a lot about what had happened in Rwanda or the background behind the killings until quite recently (thanks to 'Hotel Rwanda'). The museum filled in the gaps, tastfully. There is quite a lot to tell about the genocide, so those wanting to know more, please read the section at the end of this page!
The museum consisted of a section downstairs of the Rwanda genocide. The display was visually stunning and extremely informative. In between panels were silent video displays showing some of the atrocities. Through four different videos we were also able to follow the stories of 5 different Tutsi of about our age, and their experiences (and how they survived) during the genocide. The last room was a large room filled to the brim with photos donated by relatives, of those who had died. I walked into the room with tears pouring down my cheeks.
Upstairs, there was a display of all the other genocides committed in the 20th century - the Jews during WW2, the Albanians and a Namibian tribe at the beginning of the century, Cambodia, Yugoslavia.... how do we keep allowing this to happen??!?
The last room was dedicated to the children who died in Rwanda. Larger-than-life last photos of a child was shown with a short profile, something along the lines of:
Name: Francine Ingabire
Age: 12
Favourite Sport: Swimming
Favourite Food: Eggs and chips
Best friend: her elder sister Claudette
Last words: Save me mumma
Cause of Death: Hacked by machete
The museum then lead to an outdoor garden area, covered with large concrete slabs hiding in amongst the flowers. These slabs are infact the mass burial site of the remains of 250,000 Rwandans killed in Kigali...
Feeling quite stunned by the horror the world still lives in, we walked with deflated hearts back into the city, and caught a minibus to the west of the country.
Colobus Monkeys
After a good night sleep, the next morning we headed across country to track down the elusive colobus monkey. We travelled on several minibuses (only getting ripped off on one occassion) deep into the Nyungwe National Park. We were dropped off at the park headquarters, a small office building next to a canteen. The place was of a much smaller scale than we expected. We were the only people about and the only food for miles about was a can of tuna and water. We ate what we could and with heavy hearts forked out $50 to enter the park and track the monkeys.
We were not warned how hard the trek would be. We headed right down the side of the mountain, deep into the valley below. After 1 hour, we were lead off the track into even trickier terrain. We stumbled and whined for the next 2 hours and nearly gave up completely on several occassions. Miles harder than gorilla tracking!
Eventually though, 400m directly down the mountain, our scouts lead us to the tail end of 600 colobus monkeys making their way through the forest. We sat on the slope (exhausted) and watched them for an hour or so, jumping (and occassionally falling) from tree to tree. Delightful wee things! Needing to leave the park before it got too dark, we decided to head back. After much puffing and grunting and pushing and pulling, we eventually arrived back at HQ, and sat on the side of the road waiting for transport to take us back to Kigali.
We waited and waited. No minibuses or buses of any form went past and it was already getting dark. So we decided to take the next vehicle heading our way, no matter where its destination would be. 5 minutes later we flagged down a car - a business man and his driver who were heading west (to the border with Congo) who would be DELIGHTED to give us a lift. We bundled in and chatted about wheelbarrows (his business) all the way to Cyangugu.
Congo (nearly)
The countryside on the way to Cyangugu was breathtakingly beautiful. Rwanda is, as they say, made up of a thousand hills, but I suspect its more like 10,000 hills. The entire country looks just like hobbit-ville! The scenery got richer and richer as we approached the border with Congo.
The small border town of Cyangugu was spectacular. It was set on the bottom edge of the lake and the land all around was lush and beautiful. Kirsty and I couldn't believe our eyes - one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to. (The photo here just does not do the place credit, but believe us, it is stunningly beautiful!)
We checked into a posh hotel and had room service on our balcony overlooking Congo. We briefly flirted with the idea of trying to enter Congo, but quickly realised that without our backpacks (stored at our hotel in Kigali) we wouldn't get very far and so gave up (reluctantly) on that!
We headed back to Kigali the next day, via the National Museum in Butare. The museum was interesting, but what caught my attention was the handicrafts being sold at ridiculously cheap prices. I could resist the temptation and bought several largish statues, and had to carry them around for the next few days.
We arrived back in Kigali at 11pm to find our hotel full - no rooms left for us. In true Hannah and Kirsty style, we sweet-talked the receptionist into giving up his locker space, put down our sleeping mats, and slept on the hotel reception floor! A very cozy sleep!
Wanting to see the most of Rwanda we could in the limited time we had, we headed far north the next day to see the volcanos. Cheapskates we were we didn't want to pay money to go into the national park itself, and instead spent a couple of hours wandering around the small town of Ruhengeri before heading back again to Kigali.
Hotel Rwanda
It being our last night in Rwanda, we decided to splash. We headed into town to MilleCollins Hotel (otherwise known as Hotel Rwanda) where we paid ridiculous international hotel prices for very 2nd rate (microwaved pizza) food while listening to 80s live music. A bit of an anticlimax, but at least we can say we went to Hotel Rwanda!
Onward bound - destination: TANZANIA
The next morning we headed to Tanzania, enjoying the luxury of travelling by minibus and the company we met. We met not only the cutest kid in the entire world and a soccer team of young fit men, but also a lovely girl called Vestoo who lost her entire family in the genocide. She is lonely and wanting a mzungu (white) boyfriend... any takers? Please contact me and i'll give you her contact details!
Genocide in Rwanda (as told by Hannah!)
The Germans came into Rwanda in the beginning of 20th century as the main 5 world powers (and one bizarre individual, the King of Belgium who bought Congo (Zaire) for himself!!) started to carve up Africa how they pleased amongst themselves. After World War 2, Rwanda was ceeded to the Belgiums. Until the Belgiums came along, Rwanda was, for the most part, one large race. The Tutsi/Hutu differences were only of a social economic nature. The Belgiums decided to make the differences more of an racial divide, spliting the entire nation into either Tutsi or Hutu and putting their new 'race' on their identity cards. Hotel Rwanda explains that this was done by choosing the more "European-Looking" Rwandas (based on nose size and skin colour) as Tutsi, and the others, as Hutu. The museum explained the segration based on how many cows one owned - more than 10 cows made one (and their children to follow) a Tutsi. Less than 10 cows, a Hutu. The Belgiums chose only those from Tutsi race (about 17% of the population) to help them run the country, thus leading to a greater racial divide.
As independence in Africa become commonplace in the 60s, the Belgiums started to pull back, and tried to reverse the damage they had done by trying to bring more Hutu into administrative control. The most dangerous act was to make the army close to 100% Hutu dominated.
The Belgiums pulled out of the country, granting independence, but as was commonplace in all of Africa, without having educated or taught the population the necessary skills to be able to run their own country. The Hutus took control, and slowly began a campaign to rid the country of the Tutsi. Machetes were stock piled and boys were recruited into the "killing camps" where they learnt the necessary skills to kill all the Tutsi 'cockroaches'. Slowly, and very obviously, the population were brainwashed into believing that the Tutsi were a threat to the future of the country.
The West had some idea of what was happening (a high-up Hutu army officer reported on the killing camps and then mystically disappeared), but as Rwanda doesn't have any valuable natural resources for us to plunder, the UN (including Kofi Annan himself) chose to ignore all the warning signs.
In April 1994, a Hutu leader and his Tanzanian counterpart were shot down in their airplane coming back from peace talks. This was all that was necessary to trigger the genocide. The killing started in Kigali and quickly spread through-out the nation. The museum made clear that the genocide was both planned and systematic. Within hours of the plane crash, road blocks were set up and individual Tutsi were being targetted and killed.
The genocide took 100 days, in which time more than 1 million Tutsi were (for the large part) hacked to death while the west chose to ignore what was happening. The genocide only stopped when rebel Tutsi forced fought back, driving the Hutu back.
It is absolutely disgusting that we can allow such atrocities to happen in this day and age - this only happened 10 years ago! I felt the shame of the west on my shoulders... will we never learn?

When served in restaurants, this half-lemonade, half-iced tea beverage is often called an "Arnold Palmer." We've included this recipe in many of our books, and it's always been a winner!
During a heat wave at the U.S. 1904 World's Fair, a tea plantation owner didn't want his hot tea samples to go to waste. He dumped ice into his brewed tea, and iced tea was born!
Mint and lemon slices are ideal garnishes. But you can really dress up this refreshing iced tea by serving it with a sprig of lemon balm, a fresh herb combining the fragrances of lemon and mint.

In order for Tupelo's Lady Wave to have a shot at becoming the state's No. 1 team, they first have to beat the nation's top team, Madison Central, on Saturday.
Tupelo (12-2-1), a Class 6A state finalist last season, plays at rival Madison Central (19-1-2) in the MHSAA soccer quarterfinals at 1 p.m.
"It's always a great game," Tupelo junior midfielder Abbie Banko said. "When we play them it feels like a state championship game.
"If we want to get back to the state championship (match), we've got to go through them."
The Lady Wave won its first-round match at home, 4-0 against Warren Central. The Lady Jaguars, rated the nation's best by MaxPreps, defeated Southaven 9-0.
Tupelo defeated Madison Central 1-0 in last year's state semifinals, then lost 1-0 to Brandon in the championship game at Clinton High School stadium.
"It's going to be fun," Tupelo sophomore forward Katie Taylor said. "They are definitely one of the top teams. We'll have to play our best."
Tupelo coach Shelley Miller was pleased with her team's offensive effort against Warren Central. The Lady Wave attempted 25-plus shots.
"We looked good," she said. "We were knocking the ball around and doing things we've worked on in practice."
getting defensive
The coach was pleased with her defense, too. Banko, keeper Kat Stratton and defenders Lexie Wise, Margaret Burleson, Maddie Russell and Liza Wise.
"This group of defenders picks up the slack for each other," Miller said.
Stratton, an Alabama commitment, has recorded 10 shutouts and allowed only four goals this season. She has 26 shutouts over the last two seasons.
Madison Central returns two of its top players in forward Marion Crowder and midfielder Hailey Brobaugh.
Crowder, a Georgia commitment, has 27 goals and 13 assists. Brobaugh has committed to Alabama.

NY Assembly Approves Min. Wage Hike
ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - New York's Assembly has voted to increase the minimum wage to $9 an hour with automatic increases tied to inflation, putting pressure on Senate's Republicans who are seeking business tax cuts in a potential legislative deal.
The Assembly passed the bill 101-44 after four hours of debate Tuesday night. The bill now goes to the Senate.
Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Senate majority leaders are negotiating behind closed doors.
The minimum wage is currently $7.25 an hour. Among the proposals being floated by legislative leaders is raising the wage to $8.50, then $8.75, then $9 over two or three years.
Cuomo had proposed an $8.75 wage but said he's open to negotiation.

Laurier Toronto
Becca Carroll named Dean of Students for Lauriers Brantford campus
Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
Mar 18/11
Wilfrid Laurier University has appointed Becca Carroll to the new position of Dean of Students for the Brantford campus, effective July 1, 2011.
Carroll has 15 years of progressive experience in residence life and student affairs. For the past two years, she has served as Assistant Director, Leadership, Learning and Programs, at The University of Western Ontario.
The new role of Dean of Students, Laurier Brantford is part of a strategic change within Laurier Student Affairs. The change is designed to enhance the universitys innovative approach to student-centred education. Dedicating one Dean of Students to the fast-growing Brantford campus and another to the Waterloo campus enables each dean to focus more directly on students and the student-life needs of each campus.
Carroll will report to David McMurray, Lauriers Vice-President: Student Affairs, and to Lesley Cooper, Acting Principal/Vice-President of Laurier Brantford. Leanne Holland Brown, Dean of Students at Lauriers Waterloo campus, also reports to McMurray. This co-reporting structure creates a direct line to senior leadership on both campuses and supports a strong multi-campus operational model.
"I am very pleased, in company with Dr. Cooper, to announce the appointment of Becca Carroll as Laurier Brantford's first Dean of Students, McMurray said. Becca has the perfect combination of skills and experience to pioneer this important new role to advance student engagement and success at Laurier Brantford. She has earned a strong reputation at UWO for her outstanding ability to mentor students, build and nurture strong relationships, and focus on purposeful student leadership and support. We are very excited to welcome such a personal and dynamic student affairs leader to the Laurier Brantford community."
Lauriers Brantford campus has grown rapidly in size and popularity since it first opened in 1999 with 39 students and one building. Today, the campus has more than 2,300 students and 18 buildings.
Becca is warmly welcomed by Laurier Brantford Student Affairs, our students, faculty and staff, Cooper said. She will be a great asset given her extensive background in student life.
Carroll earned a BA in kinesiology from The University of Western Ontario and an MA in leadership and training from Royal Roads University. As an undergraduate, she played varsity rugby and was named team MVP in 1994 and team captain in 1998. As a student affairs professional, she has held a variety of positions at UWO, from Residence Manager to her present role as Assistant Director, Leadership, Learning and Programs. Her current duties include designing and delivering leadership, learning and programming initiatives to 130 student staff, 200 residents council leaders, and more than 4,300 undergraduate students living in residence.
Carroll has also been active in the broader university community, leading alternative spring break trips to such locations as Peru and Florida, and serving as a facilitator for initiatives such as UWOs Leaders Forum for Academic and Administrative Leaders. As well, she has volunteered outside the university with a number of organizations.
"Laurier has a solid reputation for academic excellence and is a leader in student engagement, Carroll said. I am thrilled to join the leadership of the student union, students, staff and faculty to passionately contribute to Laurier's commitment to inspiring lives of leadership and purpose. As the Dean of Students, cultivating capacity in students matters. This includes their academic, leadership, and discovery of self-experiences while at Laurier Brantford. I look forward to developing meaningful relationships both on campus and within the Brantford community in order to positively influence the campus culture."

Not sure if there any fans of the series on here, but figured I would pass it on anyway. Especially after the huge problem with the Time Life releases, I figured that these would never see a quick release on DVD on again. But it seems they are, and unlike the limitedly available Time Life release, this one will include the entire first and second season. As well as some great extras like Audio Commentary. Hopefully these will also be uncut, unlike the episodes that aired on Nick and were on the original DVD's. I guess we'll find out when these come out on Oct. 12th!! Hopefully the price will reasonable, which I have faith it will be. Here's the news from TVShowsonDVD.com!!
http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=1902Ren and Stimpy Show, The - Stimpy, you eediot!
They're putting us back on DVD! 2 whole seasons!
Posted by David Lambert - 7/16/2004
Happy Happy, Joy Joy! Ren and Stimpy fans who missed out on last year's Time-Life offerings can rejoice! Paramount has quietly let retailers know that Ren and Stimpy - The Complete 1st & 2nd Seasons will be available to sell in-stores on October 12!
Over 30 episodes will be present on this release: "Stimpy's Big Day", "The Big Shot", "Stimpy's Storybook Land: Robin Hoek", "Nurse Stimpy", "Space Madness", "The Boy Who Cried 'Rat!'", "Fire Dogs", "Stimpy's Storybook Land: The Littlest Giant", "Marooned", "Untamed World", "Black Hole", "Stimpy's Invention", "In the Army", "Powdered Toastman", "Ren's Toothache", "Big House Blues", "Out West", "Rubber Nipple Salesmen", "Sven Hoek", "Mad Dog Hoek", "Haunted House", "Big Baby Scam", "Dog Show", "Son of Stimpy", "Monkey See, Monkey Don't", "Fake Dad", "The Great Outdoors", "The Cat That Laid The Golden Hairball", "Stimpy's Fan Club", "A Visit to Anthony", and "The Royal Canadian Kilted Yaksmen".
For those of us who managed to get the short-lived direct sale offering before Time-Life's rights (quickly) expired, there's still good reason to also get the new set. Besides 10 episodes that weren't on the old discs ("Mad Dog Hoek", "Haunted House", "Big Baby Scam", "Son of Stimpy", "Monkey See, Monkey Don't", "Fake Dad", "The Cat That Laid The Golden Hairball", "Stimpy's Fan Club", "A Visit to Anthony", and "The Royal Canadian Kilted Yaksmen"), Paramount's release will also have these extras:
Audio Commentary
Image Gallery
Neat add-ons that make it worth adding this to your collection, eh? Something else that would make it worthwhile is if these turn out to be the completely unedited versions of each short. As an example, in the episode "Powdered Toastman", a document is burned in the fireplace, making a joke out of the ignorance of "PTM" when he unwittingly shoves it in. Originally the paper was identifiable as the U.S. Constitution by the words "We The People" at the top, but on the Time-Life DVDs it is only a blank piece of paper. This is just one example of the edits this show has seen, both for broadcast and on the old DVDs. C'mon, Paramount...give us the unedited, original versions of each cartoon!
The running time is listed at 418 minutes, and pricing info isn't yet available. Nor is cover art, but we expect to have that reasonably soon. Stay tuned for more! In the meantime, recite the oath: "I do hereby promise only to watch the Ren & Stimpy Show..."
MTFBWY and HH!!

My lab would not heel for nothing. I put on a pinch collar and in 5 min. she was walking at heel. I used it for a week, then transitioned to a lead.
2nd the pinch collar. It cleaned a lot of things up pretty quick. My dog has his collar his ecollar and a pinch collar when I did formal OB in the yard. Started with him on the pinch then worked to where I put the lead on his normal collar and then took off the pinch and then off with the regular collar. He was walking good at heel in about 10 days. Between taking the pinch off and the regular I did the CC to heel kind how Chris does it in DDB. It worked well for me.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
RE:Freedom to Fish Act
The biggest problem for hunters and wildlife is the development of thousands of acres a year with trophy homes. 4000 sq. ft. for a family of 3.5. There will be no hunting soon at that rate. Fishing is a bit safer since you can't bulldoze ponds or rivers.
And who's gonna tell a property owner they can't build? You get down to basic liberties and stuff. Messy. This state will be paved from P-Town to Pittsfield.
RE:Freedom to Fish Act
A few more thoughts, greatly appreciated.
My intention was not to have this viewed as a political issue but as a sportsmans issue.
I disagree that this will never happen to recreatoinal fishermen. It is happening every day to public hunting land as a result of the well organized animal rights groups which base their arguments on emotions rather than scientific findings.
I'd like to see if anyone else has any concerns.
RE:Freedom to Fish Act
Thanks for the further information on the practical effects of the executive order. I must admit to not having done any research on the matter and all I know is what is posted here. Perhaps the effect of the order is positive and it certainly appears that the effect is minimal on the recreational fisherman.
This discussion inspired me to do a little research on executive orders and Ill pass on a little of what I learned. First of all the slippery slope theory is quite possible and aside from potential political fallout there is nothing to stop a President from issuing an order that does affect our backyard. Second, a good number of executive orders merely revoke or amend previous orders. So, given that history there is a very real chance that this EO could be revoked.
And finally you asked when I would approve of EOs. First of all I should say that I was wrong when I said the power has been abused over the last 8 years Clinton is right in the neighborhood with other modern presidents with somewhere around 170 per term. The fact is that the power exists to be used and the fact that the limits are vague makes any claim of abuse poorly founded. My point is better made not as an abuse of power but an abuse of intent. I do not believe it to be the intent that the powers of the federal government be consolidated in the interest of efficiency, but rather that they be separated in the interest of democracy. I think EOs are properly made in cases of foreign policy and crisis such as: E.O. 12370 which was issued to create an emergency board to investigate a railroad dispute, Bushs blocking Iraqi Government property and prohibiting transactions with Iraq, and Clintons prohibiting Transactions With Terrorists Who Threaten To Disrupt the Middle East Peace Process. I dont think an EO is appropriate when the president merely thinks it is a good idea and it would just be too difficult to usher that idea through congress.

RE:Freedom to Fish Act
Hi Steve,
You are right about the Hawaii thing. Most of that reserve is for the northern Sandwich Islands where the public is already not allowed because of how fragile these islands are.
When I lived on Maui a few years back the commercial and sport fishermen were very concerned about the waters off Maui becoming a whale sancuary. They thought that it would keep them from fishing and it proved false as fishing was able to continue with little interference.
Out here in Washington State we have many areas in the sound that are marine sancuarys. They seem to be doing well in giving our depleted bottom fish a chance to recover and spread out over more area as they populate.
As for W. if he does anything for us sportsmen I would look into it a little deeper you may find it's just a cover for the land rights issues or for timber, mining,etc. I say this because I had to deal with the, "we are doing this for the sportsmen" durring the Reagan years and the gov went in and clear cut 18 million board feet of timber behind my home. The Goverment went to press to let sportsmen know that they would have a new road into the back country because of this cut. What the sportsmen ended up with was no elk left and some mighty fine little trout streams full of silt. I wish there were some republicans who really wanted a strong healthy enviroment, I might just vote for them!
Better to have the land locked away than to be destroyed.
RE:Freedom to Fish Act
I agree with Steve on his points. I'm always leary of arguments that say the sky will fall unless xyz happens. I'm still waiting for the NRA claim that liberals in Mass. are going to take away every single gun. They've been claiming that for decades. So the argument that ZERO waters should be closed for conservation purposes strikes me as the same thing. The world is crowded and can not sustain endless expansion and population. That is why we have the National and State park systems.
OTOH if the act is unreasonable and not measured it should be fought. But in crusing the websites listed above I didn't get that impression, unless I missed something?
RE:Freedom to Fish Act
Two voices heard.
At over 100,000 hits per week I wonder what the other folks reading this have to say.
Speak up before it's too late.

RE:Freedom to Fish Act
I don't see it as a very big deal. The Executive Order closes 4 million acres of water that includes the Midway Islands that are already a national park. The recreational fishing outfits (I believe there are currently two there) will continue to be allowed to operate. It caps recreational fishing effort at current levels in the remaining 76 million acres and allows continued native subsistence fishing. If you look at the areas that are affected you'll see they are very remote and are basically impossible to reach for all but the largest boats (very few if any recreational boats). In addtion, the areas covered have been heavily overfished by commerical long-liners, and there's still a lot of ocean that is left unprotected and completely open around Hawaii.
Now, I understand the "slippery slope" theories and the fear that this could happen in our own backards, but the reality is it never will. The Dry Tortugas is also fairly remote (albeit it is reachable by smaller boats from Key West) but the effort to make this area a reserve has come under a lot of scrutiny.
As for George "Dumb-ya" overturning the Executive Order, It could happen but I think he's got enough to worry about already.
BTW: Under what circumstances do you approve of Executive Orders being used?
Remember: President Clinton also signed the Executive Order that shut-off the Selective Availability (dithering) on the civilian GPS system.
RE:Freedom to Fish Act
The executive order power has been seriously abused over the last eight years. There certainly is a place for it but there are a number of very good reasons we have three branches to our government not the least of which is to prevent monarchy like law creation. The one bit of good news regarding executive orders we don't like is that they can be overturned the minute W. takes the oath of office. Perhaps some letters are in order?
Freedom to Fish Act
This months Florida Sportsman featured an article by Editor Karl Wickstrom noting a subversive challenge by the government to ignore our rights as recreational fishermen and ignore the success of fisheries management techniques by creating No-Fishing Zones.
On 12/04/00 President Clinton issued an executive order banning recreational fishing from over 4 million acres in Hawaii.
See: http://www.asafishing.org/newsroom/pressreleases/hawaiiban.htm
The Dry Tortugas off of Florida are now being targeted, see:
The American Sportfishing Association has had a bill called the "Freedom to Fish Act" introduced by Senator Breaux see:
http://thomas.loc.gov and search for the STATUS of bill s. 3234 for more info.
So what do you think?
We've just had a major slap in the face regarding the striper keeper size - hey who cares if were killing fish in the prime of their breeding life?
How long do you think it will be before something like this happens to the inshore fishermen? It doesn't matter where it starts, now that it has - it's heading our way.
Fire away but most importantly, let's use this forum to find a way to be heard.

By Scott Reed
Last week I had knee surgery. It seemed like a good topic for a financial column. I have had a number of minor surgeries, but only two major ones. Both major surgeries have been elective – elective in that I wasn't at some critical point where I had to have surgery to live or to maintain a decent standard of living.
When I was 26, I had gall bladder surgery. I had gall stones and they didn't have a good way to get rid of them other than surgery.
The physicians said, "You should have it now while you are healthy instead of waiting until you're not healthy to have the surgery. Your body will recover faster."
So, I did.
This recent surgery was a partial knee replacement. Not many people are good candidates for this particular surgery. It is less invasive than a full knee replacement and has shown great results for the right patient.
I thought about waiting until my knee was a little worse before going under the knife. But the more I read and the more I talked to my surgeon, I found that people who postponed their surgery until their knee got worse didn't have as good a response to the surgery as those who went ahead and had surgery while their leg was still fairly strong.
It makes sense to me that, if you have a choice, invasive surgery is better managed by a strong body than a weak one. That is not just a fact in medicine; it is a fact in investing as well.
Too many times I have seen parents start a college fund when their children are 15 years old or start saving for retirement when they are 50. There is always going to be pain in investing for future events, but the pain is much more manageable and the chance of success is much more probable if you begin the process when you are financially healthy enough to stand the pain.
We in America seem to be better at dealing with crisis situations than at hurting people before we have no other choice.
Just look at Social Security. There isn't much of a secret to what we are going to have to do to fix it. There isn't much argument about the fact that the sooner we get started fixing Social Security, the less total pain will be inflicted.
So what is stopping us? What is stopping us with the Social Security situation is that if we start right now, we will have to choose who feels the pain. If we wait long enough, there will be no choice – everyone will feel the pain. That way no one has to take the blame for the choices made. It's a lousy reason to wait.
We are going to have a lot of people run out of money before they run out of life in the coming decades. It doesn't have to be that way. Don't let one of them be you.

Serves 25 to 30
Yields 4 to 6 lb. bacon
You won't believe how much better the flavor and texture of homemade bacon are compared to its store-bought counterpart. The process is simple: you brine a fresh pork belly to season it inside and out, then smoke it gently on your grill. You can experiment with different flavors (see the variations below), or play around with the type of hardwood sawdust you use to smoke the bacon; apple and hickory are two favorites, but feel free to use whatever wood you like best.
Pour 1 gallon of cold water into a 12-quart nonreactive container, such as a plastic storage tub or stainless-steel pot or bowl. Add the salt and sugar and stir until dissolved.
Put the pork pieces in the brine, weighting them down with a plate if necessary to keep them completely submerged. Cover the container and refrigerate for 24 hours.
Remove the pork from the brine, stir the brine a few times, and then return the pork to the brine. Refrigerate for another 24 hours.
Drain the pork and discard the brine. Rinse the pork in cold water and pat dry. If using the black pepper, evenly sprinkle it all over the pork.
If using a charcoal grill, open all the vents. Remove the grill grate and put a 4x8-inch disposable foil loaf pan on the charcoal grate. Put 5 cups of the sawdust in the loaf pan. If using a gas grill, disconnect the propane and put the pan on a back corner of the grill grate. (You won't be lighting the burners—you're essentially using the grill as a smoker.)
Light 5 charcoal briquettes in a chimney starter. When the briquettes are glowing and completely covered with gray ash, transfer them with tongs to the sawdust, spacing them evenly in the pan. If using a charcoal grill, replace the grill grate.
When the sawdust begins to smolder, arrange the pork pieces fat side up on the grill grate to the side of the loaf pan. Space the pieces at least 1 inch apart to allow the smoke to circulate around them. Cover the grill and insert a metal instant-read thermometer into a vent hole in the lid or lay it on the grate to monitor the grill temperature—it should be between 80°F and 120°F. If the temperature rises above 120°F, remove 1 or more briquettes or partially uncover the grill until the temperature falls.
Stir the sawdust with tongs every 1-1/2 hours to ignite any that's unburned, and add more sawdust, 1 cup at a time, to the loaf pan as the sawdust turns to ash. You want a good amount of smoke rising out of the vents.
After 3 hours, rotate the position of the pork to ensure even smoking. As long as you monitor the sawdust and the day is not too humid or wet, you probably won't need to add more briquettes. If your sawdust does stop burning, however, light more briquettes in the chimney on a flameproof surface and reignite the sawdust.
The total smoking time will be 5 to 6 hours. Depending on the breed of pork and the duration of smoking, the bacon may become a brownish-yellow color. It will still be raw, however. The bacon will look dry on the meaty side, and the fat may be glistening with moisture. Pat the moisture off with paper towels and cool the bacon completely at room temperature. Refrigerate until firm before slicing.
You can store the bacon either in slices or large pieces (slabs). To store sliced bacon, shingle the slices in small, individually wrapped batches. Tightly wrapped in plastic, bacon will keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 2 months. If you've frozen the bacon in slabs, let it defrost in the refrigerator for a couple of hours until it's soft enough to slice with a sharp knife. (It's easier to slice thinly when partially frozen.) Slice off what you need and then refreeze the rest, tightly wrapped. Either way, thaw completely before cooking.
If cooking no more than 8 slices of bacon, fry them in a 12-inch skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium heat, turning frequently, until browned and as crisp as you like.
If cooking more than 8 slices, arrange the bacon in a single layer on a wire rack set over a large rimmed baking sheet and bake in a 350°F oven, turning once with tongs, until done to your liking.
Either way, drain the bacon on paper towels and serve hot.
Bourbon variation
Barley malt syrup and bourbon add an earthy sweetness to this twist on the master recipe: Substitute 2/3 cup (6 oz.) packed dark brown sugar for the light brown
sugar. Add 1 cup barley malt syrup and 1 cup bourbon (such as Maker's
Mark) once the salt and sugar are dissolved. Add the pork belly and
brine as instructed above. Try smoking this bacon over oak sawdust because bourbon is aged in oak barrels, so the flavors go well together.Maple variation Fenugreek enhances the flavor of the maple sugar and syrup in this brine: Substitute 1 cup (about 6 oz.) maple sugar for the brown sugar. Add 1
cup maple syrup, 2 tsp. pure vanilla extract, and 2 tsp. ground
fenugreek once the salt and maple sugar are dissolved. Add the pork
belly and brine as instructed above. Maple sawdust is a natural fit here, but cherry would work, too.

Anime-Planet users recommend these anime for fans of Naruto. All available to watch right here, right now!
Fifteen-year-old Ichigo Kurosaki is a typical teen with fighting skills, two caring sisters and a special trait: he can see ghosts. However, when Ichigo and his family find themselves under attack by a huge beast, Ichigo discovers that there's more to the supernatural world than the everyday specter. Vengeful spirits known as Hollows roam the world in...

Hardcore fights for everyone! Though with a story, enjoy! :D What I mean to say is that Bleach has everything Naruto has, and more. It's already a fact that everyone that watches one of these also watches the other, so don't be left out.
Do you like anime that contain some nice fighting scenes? Do you hate it when the fighting seems to become a purpose in itself, like in for instance DBZ? Do you like anime with well fleshed-out characters with plenty of personality? Do you like it when the physical fights are a reflection of the emotional and ideological struggles of said characters? If you found yourself answering "Yes" to most of these questions, then you're likely to enjoy both "Bleach" and "Naruto".
HIGH intense action, massive magical powers and wonderful art (most of the time...) both these series are masterful succesors to the Dragonball Z formula. Though these two series are extremely more intelligent and better written than DBZ. If you cant see a resemblance between Naruto and Ichigo... I give up.
Long ago the infamous Gol D. Roger was the strongest and most powerful pirate on the seas. As he was about to be executed he revealed that he hid all of his wealth, including the legendary treasure known as One Piece, on an island at the end of the Grand Line - a treacherous and truly unpredictable sea. Monkey D. Luffy is a spirited, energetic and somewhat...

If you liked the amount of action in One Piece, you'll enjoy this series. There's plenty of stealth ninja stuff (woo!) fighting and all that. Plus, it has plenty of comical scenes.
Ah yes, the bliss of enjoyable 100+ episode shounen. One piece and Luffy go hand in hand in terms of a boy realizing his dreams. While One Piece doesn't take itself too seriously most of the time Naruto is a bit more serious but doesn't pretend to be something it's not. You like Naruto? Then you like OP, it's as simple as that folks.
Both animes are mostly comedy and action. There are moments of darkness in each at points. The both feature DBZ-like hugely extended fight scenes and battles. And finally Naruto and Luffy have a lot in common.
Lucy is a seventeen-year-old mage with the power to summon stellar spirits, but what she really wants to do is join a guild - and not just any guild. She has her eyes set on Fairy Tail, a notoriously reckless and outrageous group of magic users who are likely to be drunk or destroying buildings and towns in the process of completing a job! While in town one...

Both shows are focused on group of friends, taking dangerous missions for the sake of the organisation they work for. Thx to their special powers they can fight with criminals or rival organisations in order to complete the assignment.
Both stoies are battle oriented, and the plot is there as a way, to get into new battles.
The main difference is that in Naruto we have ninja and ninja villages, and in Fairy Tail there are mages and mage guilds. If you like one of the shows you should like the other as well.
Naruto and Fairy Tail have very simalar plot styles. (instead of ninjas its mages) Fairy tail's animation style is a bit more comedic. With styleized expressions that look more like the manga. If you like one you'll like the other!
Naruto is very similar to Fairy Tail with action and adventure but Fairy tail has a lot less fillers than naruto

By John L. Pitts/NEMS Daily Journal
The question cropped up on my radar a few weeks ago, as I studied some of the computer models that, incidentally,figure into the BCS formula.
Half of you are going to think I've lost my mind when I ask this, but here goes:
Would Ole Miss beat Mississippi State if the teams played today?
Note that I'm not asking if Ole Miss is a better team. I'm asking if Ole Miss would win a game played today against Mississippi State.
I'm not sure the answer is so obvious.
Yes, I know MSU is 7-1 and Ole Miss is 5-3. I know that the Bulldogs are ranked in every national poll and the Rebels got 3 votes this week in the coaches' poll, probably a No. 23 cast by some bleary-eyed assistant coach in Corvallis or some such.
The teams have two opponents in common – and that's a rather interesting piece of evidence in the Rebels' favor:
Auburn: MSU beat the awful Tigers 28-10 in Starkville, while Ole Miss won 41-20 in Oxford.
Alabama: Ole Miss put up an interesting fight for a while – even leading for a few seconds – before losing 31-14. Mississippi State got whipped, 38-7.
To my eye, this at least suggests that the teams aren't that far apart.
Jeff Sagarin, my former USA Today colleague, turns his computer formula loose on this question and declares that Ole Miss, playing at home, is a couple points better than Mississippi State.
Is that accurate? Well, last week Jeff's formula said Ole Miss would win by 2 at Arkansas (won by 3) and that Alabama would win by 27 (won by 31).
Spend some time looking at the "SEC only" stats, and it tends to reinforce the impression that the teams are rather similar. One surprise – Ole Miss is No. 1 in league games on offensive efficiency inside the 20, a perfect 15-for-15 on scoring when down there. (MSU is 12 of 16.)
I posed this question Sunday on Twitter and Bulldogs fans gave the same sort of general response – "You've got to be joking!" – they gave when Las Vegas set Alabama as a four-touchdown favorite for last weekend's game.
I don't know the answer myself.
Don't look ahead
But neither team can afford to worry about that right now. State is facing two very lose-able games – home against Texas A&M today and at LSU next week – before closing with Arkansas and Ole Miss.
With trips to Georgia today and LSU ahead, the Rebels' best chance to become bowl eligible is to beat Vanderbilt next week. But that has been a tricky series in recent years.
Both teams have a lot of business to tend to before meeting on Nov. 24 in Oxford. And it starts today.

Actually it was a very nice vacation. Actually I may say the best ever. Being with my beloved girl friend was soo great. And after seeing the different parts of Holland, I must say that I like the country soo far. Actually in many ways it resemples Denmark, so I advoided a culture shock.
With regard to hacking I haven't done a single thing. My girlfriend has taken up all my time, and I must say I *really* like that way. I never believed that I could love one soo much as I love her. I am really soo sad that I had to return back to Denmark. Now I just got to find time to visit her soon. If I do not - I have no idea of what I should do about my self. I am soo deply in love, and it feels so wonderful. Mijn Hannahtje, I really love you!!!!!!

Day 2 - Chipa time
It was a typically hot and sticky day which we started off by making bread, but not just any bread, Chipa!
Years back, Fabiola had sent us a letter saying that there were making the "Chipa" for Easter. Ever since we've been dying to know what Chipa was.
Not only did we now know what it was but we knew how to make it! Chipa & Sopa Paraguay are two local breads which are very popular
We all gathered in Fabiola's yard and began the long process of making Chipa.
First we broke up the hard Paraguayan cheese into small bits. Then we mixed in all of the ingredients into a large plastic tub. Then came the hard part, kneading the tough dough. The process took several hours and Anna, a local Plan employee did a good job helping us as we attempted to knead the big tub of dough.
When it was finally ready we balled the dough into small pieced and placed them on small pieces of palm leaves which where cut out from long green palm leaves.
The kids helped out but mostly they bounced around us singing "Chipa! Chipa! Chipa!" as they let loose their energy.
The cooking process was an interesting one. In a small 3 foot high traditional oven there had been a fire burning for a few hours.
The oven was a small, hollow mound of bricks which formed a rounded half pod with a small opening on the ground. It was rarely used these days do to it's long cooking process.
Once the oven was hot enough, the fire within it was extinguished and the coals where removed from it
In went the Chipa where it sat for a while after closing the opening by stuffing it with fresh green leaves.
When it was all done, the small but heavy, breads where ready to eat.
To be honest they were little dry and too hard for my liking but considering the conditions and tools we had to cook it with, they weren't so bad!
The great Paraguayan horse race
When you think horse race, what you think of is a little different that what we experienced in Paraguay.
The horse track, 3 small dirt paths next to Fabiola's home, was buzzing with locals, and we were ready to see a show.
We'd walked out to the middle of the track and before I could finish paying for a beer which we'd bought for Fabiola's mother, two horses had already started roaring down the track
In the span of 10 seconds, the race was over!
"It'll take a few hours before the next horses are ready, we should go home" Augusto suggested.
What? A few hours? We had just arrived!
Augusto explained that the way it worked was that the locals would bring their horses to the track and just lounge around. Eventually, two Paraguayans would taunt each other enough to "pick a fight" as it were.
Not a real fight but, a race. Then the two would race while the locals bet on the winners.
It would end in a few seconds and the process would start over again.
Waiting in the heat for a few hours to see a 10 second race didn't sound that appealing so we packed up and headed back home.

Coordinating breathing with movement involves using the muscles of your chest wall, shoulders, diaphragm, and abdomen. Wilson demonstrates several breathing exercises that can be performed while sitting in a chair or at the edge of your bed, or while walking down the hall.

During spring break 2014 Princeton students in the class "Gardens in China and Japan" experienced firsthand the beauty and design of gardens and temples in Kyoto, Japan. Above: Rising seniors Amber Stewart and Henrique De Freitas take a moment to watch the koi fish in a garden pond.

Featured Story
Video feature: 'Gardens in China and Japan'
Posted August 11, 2014; 12:00 p.m.
To allow students to immerse themselves firsthand in the design, aesthetics, sights and sounds of Asian gardens, a recent Princeton class incorporated a spring break trip to Kyoto, Japan.
"Trying to study architecture from a photograph or a slide is a little bit like trying to understand a movie by reading about it. … You really have to be there. You really have to experience it," said Jerome Silbergeld, the P.Y. and Kinmay W. Tang Professor in Chinese Art.
In spring 2014, Silbergeld co-taught the class "Gardens in China and Japan" with Thomas Hare, the William Sauter LaPorte '28 Professor in Regional Studies. The course examined private gardens and public parks as sites for social activity, private retreats and the material embodiment of a wide range of fundamental values of the cultures in which they appear. Interest in the course — which was cross-listed with the Department of Art and Archaeology, the Department of Comparative Literature and the Department of East Asian Studies — was so high that students had to be interviewed to be admitted.
This video captures the group's experiences in Japan through photographs taken by several of the students and interviews with the professors and rising seniors Henrique De Freitas and Phway Aye.
"Every rock, every shape of a pond, every plant, asks a question from you and you're trying to find the answer … that's what I enjoyed most about being able to actually walk through these gardens as opposed to just talking about them or looking at pictures," said De Freitas, a concentrator in operations research and financial engineering.

On April 19, 2011 The University of Kansas Hospital recently held its first orientation session for area teachers participating in the A Change of Heart® teacher pilot program. A Change of Heart® is a program created by women, for women, to raise awareness about women's heart disease.
The partnership began in 2010 when the hospital joined with KCPT to inform the greater Kansas City viewing area about heart disease via A Change of Heart®.
In December, KCPT held a live pledge drive featuring a heart health awareness program by national speaker Dr. Lori Mosca, The Three Keys to Heart Health. Hospital nursing staff answered phones and discussed heart health with callers, and Dr. Ashley Simmons, A Change of Heart® medical director, was interviewed.
Following the pledge drive, the hospital and KCPT chose to partner together to provide assessments for 40 area teachers, inspiring them to take a look at their own heart health. We hope to educate the greater Kansas City area through this outreach effort.
Each teacher who attended the orientation will have an individual 90-minute heart health assessment. It will check their risk factors and include a one-on-one meeting with a hospital cardiac nurse practitioner.
The program culminates when these teachers head back to their schools in the fall, passing along stories of their own assessment and educational experience, and developing an interactive lesson to inspire their students to live heart-healthy lives.
Additional teacher participants may sign up for the program by calling Ally Bittner, The University of Kansas Hospital, at (913) 945-5248.

Watch GLORY 3 Rome LIVE on LiverKick Nov. 3rd
- Written by Dave Walsh
We are as excited as you are about watching the GLORY World Series event on November 3rd, GLORY 3 Rome, and it is gearing up to be one of the better shows of the year so far featuring the Final 8 of their 70kg tournament. Just as we have been doing for past events, we will be streaming the event live to you here on LiverKick. If you are in the US and your PPV provider doesn't carry it, or if Hurricane Sandy has displaced you and you just have your computer. Hell, or if you just like watching stuff on your computer.
We'll be offering the same awesome streaming service that Glory has offered for a while now in HD quality without any of that pesky lag or buffering. So join us this weekend and support LiverKick and Glory by purchasing the event through us.
