|Ocean Flyfishing for Salmon Perhaps the most under-rated fishery in the world
|Topic Review (Newest First)
There stiill out there...
I am always a bit leary of conditions described by anglers that include phrases of plentitudes (is that a word) but the only adjective that I can find to adequately describe the "Body of Fish" that is laying off of Cape Flattery is VAST.
Using sinking lines and clousers you will have a hard time counting how many fish you encounter. If you go to dry line and poppers or sliders you will catch just too many. Awhile back Topwater called it nuts out there It still is all that and I would gather a bit more.
The fish are a bit smaller than what I am used to in the Gulf of Alaska but I have seldom seen numbers like this before. Several of my friends who have fished out of Sitka with me have been out at Neah Bay all week and were all sportinging speed tape on there fingers to try and hold them together from all the nicks and scrapes from releaseing "Fish too numerous too count". I may have given them an out yesterday as I showed them how easy it was too cut the "production" in half or better by using poppers and bringing the cohos to the surface.
One of them drove from Neah Bay all the way to Port Angeles to shop at Waters West for a dry line and matrrials to rig up some top water stuff. (They needed more beer too).
I am looking forward to these fish moving into the straits later this fall and hope that they put on a few more pounds. Pray for rain the rivers are in need of water if this bounty is to be successful in spawning.
There appear to be some 15' fiberglass kickers for rent in Neah Bay. I did not inquire but it looked like Big Salmon Resort might be the vendor.

Thinks I'm scary. Which must be GennGreymane slang for the beautiful in all the land. So thank you.
I've seen around a lot. Seems like a pretty cool guy. Only one I know that has around the same amount of posts as -Apathy-
Did we mention he likes borders?
Is a shark that wears boots, and works at a hotel! He's also older than me, likes the wilderness (like any sane person would), and doesn't think of himself as an interesting person.
Saw a while ago when I stopped frequenting MMO-Champ, then when I returned was a Mod. Seems like a cool enough guy. Even if he's neutral.
Apparently likes
Seen around here and there but I honestly don't know anything about you.
Cave Cave Deus Videt
First I've seen of this guy. Maybe a member of that evil Koreaboo brigade!?
Thinks koreaboos are evil!

Steamboat Springs Yampa Valley Data Partners' July release of Fast Facts states that Routt County's unemployment rate dropped to 6.6 percent for June.
The drop in Routt's unemployment rate likely is because of seasonal job openings, according to Data Partners. Moffat County's unemployment rate edged up slightly for June to 6.7 percent compared with 6.2 percent for May.
"The 12 month average unemployment rate in both counties continues to decline, indicating gradual improvement in the labor market," the report states.
Real estate inventory in both counties was at a year-to-date high for June, according to Yampa Valley Data Partners. Average listing prices in Moffat were up 2 percent for the month compared with June 2012, and prices in Routt were down 15 percent compared with last year.
The report states that this indicates a slight softening of the market compared with earlier in the year.

A member of the OCLUG board of directors stepped down, due to time constraints. I have been appointed as a replacement until the election next April. I have been very impressed with the board's actions and initiatives in the past, so I'm looking forward to working with them.
After taking the summer off, I'm now working (my first job out of university). At the moment, I'm on a 3 month contract (with a possible extension) doing basic XML work. It's not what I want to do as a career but it feels wonderful to be working again, especially now that fall is here.

Seems to me what we need is more people writing docs, instead of just bitching about it.
Seems to me what we need is more people writing docs, instead of just bitching about it.
Just when I was getting happy about the AT&T cable service, they started changing IP's. Hope this is a one-time thing (it might, as they've been setting up a different subnet and submask, not just re-assigning IP's inside of the subnet).
Played a bit with traffic shaping over the weekend. I'm on a cable modem, and without shaping frames go out of my computer at 10Mbit/s and get buffered into the cable modem before they get to the 128Kbit/s uplink, which results in very bad lag whenever I upload anything.
I had never played with this before, and I was amazed how much it helps. Now my telnets never get lagged at all, and the reduced latency also seems to help when I do some downloads. If people are interested, I would recommand them to use:
"tbf" for the basic shaping - making sure we do not overfill the modem's internal buffers. I did that with "tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: tbf rate 120kbit burst 2000 mpu 128 limit 100000". I would recommend people to use the tbf patch from http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/qos.htm - it allows you to put additional shaping disciplines "inside" of the tbf shaper. (I dont know if its still required if you run 2.4 - I'm still running a 2.2 kernel)
"prio" works good enough to do the prioritization, based on the Type Of Service field of the IP headers. Most linux applications set it correctly, so you dont have to scratch your head too hard to prioritize your packets. If I was doing a gateway for windows machines I guess my life would be harder though. For now, I just did "tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:1 handle 2: prio". interactive traffic (telnet, ssh) is prioritized over control traffic (dns, ping, netscape apparently ends up there too), and the lowest priority is bulk data (wget, scp, ftp, fetchmail, ...)
"sfq" tries to make the shaping more fair - so that if in the same priority band you transfer files to different places at the same time, they will get roughly equivalent amounts of bandwidth, even if one is far away with more ping delay and stuff. So I added it in all three priority bands: "tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 2:1 handle 10: sfq perturb 600", "tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 2:2 handle 20: sfq perturb 600" and "tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 2:3 handle 30: sfq perturb 600". The perturb parameter is there to work around some limitations in the sfq algorithm, I found out that lower values (10 or so) tend to slow down the transfers a bit as they make packets appear out of order at times and that confuses the TCP bandwidth management algorithms.
Now the funny thing is, that I was only doing this to get me started - my longer term project was to set up shaping on downloads, which seems to be harder to do with the current linux code. AT&T cable had that very nasty capping to 1.5 mbit/s, which was done with a 1-second granularity: you could download 160KB or so, which for a close server took about half a second, then things would freeze for half a second, then it would start again, etc... that was pretty bad if you had connections to a remote server at the same time - these would usualy timeout because of loosing half of their packets. So, I was just getting ready to fight that by doing shaping on my end at a lower speed, say 1.4 mbit/s or so - but, AT&T beat me to it, and they fixed the problems on their end ! Incredible, they made me a happy guy. So, now I get smooth transfers in both directions and no delays. I guess I never liked cable so much before :)
Lots of updates since last time.
I worked for a while putting together a new liba52 release (well two actually), and moved the project to sourceforge. The newer code has better downmix, is 2-3 times faster, and has a few added features too.
I also did some work on libmpeg2 - Well not as much as I should (vektor is waiting for a new release), but I wrote asm code for altivec (about a 2.6x speedup) and I'm starting to write some VIS (ultrasparc) code too. We'll see how it goes.
I broke up with my girlfriend. About 3 monthes ago - well, we first did it 3 monthes ago, but then we've been together on and off again. Weird.
I've been pretty depressed too - like, for some time I couldnt sleep normally, and I had very persistent dark thoughts, and everything seemed to suck - the job, my life, everything. So now I'm taking some light antidepressants, and well, it seems to work quite well on me. I'm even starting to get a life :) This evening I'm going to some friends place for dinner, and then to a stanford students party. And I had to refuse some other invitation too. Like, that never happened before. I hope it keeps going that way for me.
Been inactive for some time: looked for a new place, started with my new job (which I find quite interesting), etc. Got my cable modem today. Should get active again soon. Hopefully.
Took two weeks of vacation in france and switzerland at my girlfriend's place. Yay :)
Flied back to california monday and started working at vmware tuesday. Yay ! I'm having a lot of fun already.
Still a bit jet-lagged though.
The mpeg2dec side is on standby for now, I've just been too busy last few weeks. I should be able to start again in one or two weeks I guess.
Busy switching jobs.
At the office I've spent last two days writing docs for the stuff I had written lately. Things are pretty polished now, so I think they will be able to use these after I leave.
Going to france for two weeks for vacation time. Well, I'll probably spend more time in switzerland with my GF anyway :) taking plane tomorrow in the evening, and coming back on the 19th.
Not found an appartment yet, so I will have to do this when I come back from vacation. This will be a huge mess, but oh well.
I have not done much on mpeg2dec last 10 days, and I dont expect to do much next 3 weeks either. I think things should get a bit better after that though. Crossing fingers.
Resigned today. I will start working at VmWare in 4 weeks. Yay !

It's the biggest, most widely used bond index out there. And suddenly it's in the red. And that's causing more and more bond investors to bag the "Agg", as the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is commonly called, and look for investments benchmarked to something else, particularly when the Dow and S&P 500 hit record highs. Carolyn Cui and Patrick McGee report in today's Wall Street Journal on the ramifications of the index's 0.12% first-quarter loss after years as a bastion of stability:
A prime reason for the Agg's changing fortunes is that U.S. Treasurys and government-backed mortgage debt have gained a larger share of the index, following several years of record U.S. debt issuance….
Roughly $4 trillion is invested into strategies pegged to the Agg, which tracks high-quality U.S. bonds such as Treasurys, highly rated company debt and mortgage-backed securities. But large investors over the past five years have pulled $171 billion away from securities that track the index, according to eVestment, a data provider on institutional investment…
Funds devoted to buying only the riskiest noninvestment-grade, or junk, bonds are up nearly 3% [this year] and the Dow Jones Industrial Average has advanced nearly 12%. If interest rates climb, bond investments linked to the Agg could be hurt, given that Treasurys now account for 37% of the index, up from 21% a decade ago.
"It makes our clients less and less interested in being benchmarked to the Agg," says James Sarni, a managing principal at Payden & Rygel, which manages $84 billion in assets, mostly in fixed income.

Actually, there was a segmentation fault bug already. It took some time, but I got it fixed. Freebirth segfaults if initial sample files don't have full path in the source (freebirth.c). Debian-patched Freebirth has it that way. There's a patch available. This will also be included in the next revision of the package.
Oh, I should write that review of Koodi vapaaksi (Free the Code) by Tere Vadén and Richard Stallman. The book is in Finnish and so will be the review.

PLHS students learn from money management course
What's in it for me? How does it relate to my life?
As an economics teacher at Pequot Lakes High School, I am often asked these questions by my students. Perhaps one of the easiest topics in which to show practicality concerns that of personal finance.
Throughout this year, Pequot Lakes High School has worked in conjunction with Central Lakes College in offering a Personal Finance and Money Management course within our high school economics class.
Students participated in a 15-hour mini course on personal finance. Some students may earn one general credit from Central Lakes College if they have qualifying GPAs and test scores. There was no cost to the student, or the high school, for this credit.
The overall aim of this course is to familiarize seniors to money management and college access. In the 15-hour class given at the high school, students were exposed to such topics as credit cards, savings options, checkbook balancing, student loans/financial aid options, auto loans/leases, rent/mortgages, insurance and a plethora of terms associated with these topics.
The ultimate goal is for students to develop a sense of financial literacy.
Students were expected to hypothetically buy an automobile, purchase a house, compare credit card offers and complete an exam at the end of the unit. Students also started completing FAFSAs in order to be eligible for federal financial aid.
Moreover, guest speakers from the community also explained topics ranging from credit to the auto buying process.
This class, and credit, was funded by a grant through the Higher Education Opportunity Act. This same grant also helped alleviate costs of our school's Reality Store life seminar held this past winter.
This mini-course is made possible by the following parties:
• The U.S. Department of Education funds the Higher Education Opportunity Act; it is administered through the Minnesota Office of Higher Education.
• Mid-Minnesota Federal Credit Union.
• Dotty Auto Company.
• Central Lakes College.
A sincere "thank you" to those people who helped contribute to this class.
(Dan Moddes is an economics teacher at Pequot Lakes High School.)

Post Explains "Wing Nuts" Label
June 21, 2005
Washington Post ombudsman Michael Getler used his June 19 column to respond to FAIR's June 14 Action Alert regarding Post reporter Dana Milbank's use of the term "wing nuts" to describe activists pressing the media to take the Downing Street memos more seriously.
The relevant portion of Getler's column is below, followed by FAIR's response.
The Washington Post
June 19, 2005 Sunday
HEADLINE: Memos, 'Wing Nuts' and 'Hit Lists'
BYLINE: Michael Getler
The bulk of the mail last week, by far, was focused once again on the "Downing Street Memo." This is the memo produced by a national security aide to British Prime Minister Tony Blair, based on notes taken in a meeting with Blair and his top advisers on July 23, 2002, eight months before the invasion of Iraq. It is marked "Secret and strictly personal--UK eyes only" but was leaked to the Sunday Times of London and published May 1.
Included in the note-taker's account was an assessment by the chief of British intelligence, after returning from a visit to Washington, that: "Military action was now seen as inevitable. Bush wanted to remove Saddam, through military action, justified by the conjunction of terrorism and WMD. But the intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy."
The memo, and the coverage and interpretation of it, continue to generate contention, especially among critics of the war and Bush administration policy. The overwhelming majority of e-mails I received last week seemed to have been prompted by a write-in campaign sponsored mostly by Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR), a liberal, self-described media watchdog organization.
Their target this time was a column by Post staff writer Dana Milbank on June 8 in which the term "wing nuts" was used. Many of the e-mailers said the reference disparaged the real concerns of many people that the administration misrepresented the situation that led the country to war.
Milbank is one of the paper's most talented and observant reporters. On the other hand, for the past several months he has also been serving as a columnist, frequently writing observations that go beyond straight reporting in a column labeled "Washington Sketch" that appears in the news pages of the A-section. On Friday, for example, The Post covered an unofficial antiwar hearing on Capitol Hill only in a Milbank column. Several readers found this inappropriate.
Unfortunately, it has never been announced or explained to Post readers that reporter Milbank is also now columnist Milbank. The reference to "wing nuts," as in left-wing nuts and right-wing nuts, appeared in the June 8 column, not a "news story," as many e-mailers wrongly stated. This is also understandable because FAIR neglected to tell its subscribers that this was clearly marked as a "Washington Sketch" and not a news story.
Milbank's column was about the June 7 Bush-Blair news conference in Washington and it reported that "Democrats.com, a group of left-wing activists" had sent e-mails offering a "reward" for anyone who could get an answer from Bush about the report that intelligence had been "fixed" around Iraq policy. Later in the column, Milbank wrote that a reporter who did ask such a question, and who had no idea of the activists' e-mails, "wasn't trying to satisfy the wing nuts."
Post Assistant Managing Editor Liz Spayd said "the term referred to one specific group" and not everyone who was questioning coverage of the memo. As for the term "wing nuts," she said "that word is probably sharper than it should have been." I agree. It was a needless red flag that undoubtedly would be read as disparaging beyond the group that Milbank was referring to. But columnists do get more leeway and the term has infiltrated political discussion in these heated times.
Here's Milbank's view: "While you have been within your rights as ombudsman over the past five years to attempt to excise any trace of colorful or provocative writing from the Post, you are out of bounds in asserting that a columnist cannot identify as 'wingnuts' a group whose followers have long been harassing this and other reporters and their families with hateful, obscene and sometimes anti-Semitic speech."
Much of the mail criticizing Milbank was also directed at op-ed columnist Michael Kinsley, who, in a June 12 column, said leftist activists' continued focus on the memo showed an ability to develop "a paranoid theory." Later in the week, The Post's editorial page also weighed in on the Downing Street memos (another has been leaked), saying: "They add nothing to what was publicly known in July 2002." That also brought mail.
I have a different view. The July 23 memo is important because it is an official document produced at the highest level of government of the most important U.S. ally. Its authenticity has not been disputed. Whatever some people said or wrote three years ago, there has never been--except for this memo--any official, authoritative claim or confirmation that "the intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy." Blair denied that at the news conference. But could the secret minutes of such a meeting be wrong? Maybe there's a different interpretation, or maybe "fixed" means something different in British-speak.
Or maybe Blair could produce the former intelligence chief, and the note-taker, for a news conference or open parliamentary session and let reporters or legislators ask for an elaboration on the assessments in the memo.
FAIR continues to be puzzled by Getler's persistent references to FAIR as a "self-described media watchdog organization," which seems to be an attempt to marginalize FAIR's work. One could just as easily call Post reporters "self-described" journalists working for a "self-described" newspaper.
Getler's attempt to rationalize Milbank's choice of words is also peculiar. Getler stressed that Milbank has a special status at the paper as a "columnist, frequently writing observations that go beyond straight reporting in a column labeled 'Washington Sketch' that appears in the news pages of the A-section." This could present problems, according to Getler: "Unfortunately, it has never been announced or explained to Post readers that reporter Milbank is also now columnist Milbank."
Indeed, the Post could do a much better job of explaining Milbank's status. It's worth noting that you get to Milbank's pieces through the "News" section of the Washington Post's website, not through the "Opinion" section. Milbank's latest piece (6/18/05) has a line at the end noting, "Staff writer Lila de Tantillo contributed to this report"--an odd thing for the Post to add to an opinion column.
Still, despite the Post's lack of clarity, the ombudsman blames FAIR for any confusion:
"The reference to 'wing nuts,' as in left-wing nuts and right-wing nuts, appeared in the June 8 column, not a 'news story,' as many e-mailers wrongly stated. This is also understandable because FAIR neglected to tell its subscribers that this was clearly marked as a 'Washington Sketch' and not a news story."
This comment suggests that "Washington Sketch" is a well-known category of opinion journalism, and not a name that the Post invented to label some of Milbank's writings starting in March. Similar labels are often put on "news analysis" pieces, such as Elizabeth Bumiller's "White House Letter" in the New York Times.
In the end, however, what category the Post thinks Milbank's writing should be placed in is beside the point. Whatever you want to call it, his piece used the slur "wing nuts" to describe people calling for coverage of a patently newsworthy controversy that was largely ignored by mainstream media--in other words, people calling on the media to do their jobs.
Getler notes that the term "wing nuts" "undoubtedly would be read as disparaging beyond the group that Milbank was referring to." But even the use of the term to refer only to Democrats.com is problematic. In back-and-forth emails posted on the Democrats.com website ( http://www.democrats.com/milbank ), Milbank provides no evidence that the group was responsible for any "hateful, obscene [or] anti-Semitic speech."
It is not unusual for people who work in the public eye to receive criticism, some of it intemperate, angry and abusive. FAIR receives such emails and calls on a daily basis, sometimes including anti-Semitic taunts and death threats. But to respond in kind to such hostility in one's journalism is a mistake-- in a news article or a "Washington Sketch" column. In the "wing nuts" piece, Milbank refers to another journalist as a "consummate professional." Milbank's use of name-calling removes him from that category.
Indeed, Milbank's displeasure with Downing Street Memo activists seems to be unprofessionally twisting his coverage of the issue. When Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.) convened a panel to discuss the issue, Milbank ridiculed the event in what Getler correctly notes was the Post's only coverage of the event (6/17/05):
"In the Capitol basement yesterday, long-suffering House Democrats took a trip to the land of make-believe. They pretended a small conference room was the Judiciary Committee hearing room, draping white linens over folding tables to make them look like witness tables and bringing in cardboard name tags and extra flags to make the whole thing look official."
Milbank dragged Democrats.com into the story, misleadingly referring to the group as "the event organizer"; After Downing Street, a coalition of some 60 groups including Democrats.com, put together an off-site closed-circuit viewing of the panel for the overflow crowd, though the way Milbank refers to the "organizers" of the actual panel two paragraphs later a reader could easily conclude that Democrats.com were responsible for the panel itself. Milbank harped on stickers, T-shirts and leaflets seen at the overflow viewing; needless to say, the Washington Post does not usually cover congressional hearings by talking about the material distributed by random individuals on the Capitol steps.
Conyers wrote a letter in response to Milbank's article, noting that the meeting was held in a basement room for a reason: "Despite the fact that a number of other suitable rooms were available in the Capitol and House office buildings, Republicans declined my request for each and every one of them."
Milbank went to great lengths to mock the event, turning a Republican effort to block an investigation of a significant document into evidence of Democratic delusions. One can't help but wonder whether Milbank has allowed a personal grievance to slant his coverage of a major topic.

Left I on the News analyzes Milbank's response here
The fact that the Post -- its ombudsman and reporters -- have BECOME part of the story in this case (and so many like it) says it all, I believe.
The writing is on the wall: The Washington Post and other mainstream news outlets are on their way out as the source for real news.
Perhaps internet news sources like "after Downing street" should just forget about the Post and SIMPLY FOCUS ON GETTING THE INFORMATION OUT TO THE PUBLIC THROUGH THE INTERNET. (After all, most people have internet access and those who think that everything they read in the Washington Post is gospel truth are certainly not going to believe ANYTHING that they read on a website sponsored by a bunch of "wing-nuts" ("wing-dings", "ding-bats", etc), or however organizations like the Washington Post choose to characterize them.
We are quickly approaching the point (if we have not already passed it) where it NO LONGER MATTERS what (or even whether) newspapers like the Post report on important issues.

University-wide events calendar is launched on Web site, May 15
Posted May 14, 2002; 07:43 p.m.
Princeton's first University-wide, Web-based events calendar is now available, as a prototype, online and will be tested throughout the summer.
The calendar, which has been much anticipated, will serve as a one-stop public events resource for students, faculty, staff and alumni. It was created to allow community members to search for events by date and category, and to make it easier for event planners to avoid scheduling conflicts.
Users may reach the main "Public Events at Princeton" calendar by clicking the new " Public Events Calendar " link in the center of the University home page.
This main calendar is a compendium of several calendars that are administered by various University groups and departments. Calendar administrators are able to maintain departmental events listings, with events of public interest "rolling up" onto the main calendar.
The system is being introduced to the campus in three phases. The current version is the first phase, which is a prototype that includes events from calendars created by a pilot group of University departments. The second phase includes adding more calendars as organizations and departments request them. The third phase will expand the calendar's capabilities and features in response to user needs and interests.
As use increases, the Public Events calendar should become the most up-to-date source for learning about current events on campus.
This system also will change how events are submitted to the printed Princeton Weekly Bulletin calendar. When items are submitted to the online calendar, there is an option on the form that also allows and encourages submission to the Weekly Bulletin. After an initial overlap phase, the traditional Weekly Bulletin calendar submission forms on the Web site will be removed.
Along with staff members from departments that participated in the calendar's testing phase, the project was built by a team in the Web services department of the Office of Information Technology, with input from the Office of Communications.
John Wagner and Hannah Kaufman, of Web Services, worked this winter and spring to adapt the WebEvent software to the University's specific needs, under the oversight of Betty Leydon, vice president for information technology, and Robert Durkee, vice president for public affairs. The current team's work represents the continuation of efforts begun by the Administrative Process Team led by Eric Hamblin and Lorene Lavora.
To view the main calendar, click here . To request a new calendar, click on the "Help" button of the task bar and choose Request a Calendar . For content issues related to the main calendar, please email Evelyn Tu , Communications Web manager.

Wingnut rocker Ted Nugent compares himself/gun owners to the iconic Rosa Parks:
"But there will come a time when the gun owners of America, the law-abiding gun owners of America, will be the Rosa Parks and we will sit down on the front seat of the bus, case closed."
Think Progress:
Since the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in December, the NRA and pro-gun advocates have tried to argue that gun owners are the true victims. Comparisons of President Obama to the totalitarian regimes of Hitler, Stalin, and Chavez are flying around the conservative blogosphere. Nugent, a reliable conspiracy theorist, is actually more moderate to advocate peaceful resistance and faith in law enforcement. In comparison, former NRA president Marion Hammer recently urged armed insurrection against the Obama administration, which she claimed was preparing to take away guns to "control the masses."
Realistically, as Media Matters notes, any executive order would likely focus on background checks or existing regulations.

I was watching "From SW to Jedi" again and while I do really enjoy it, I feel it is too focused on RotJ.
I have the Apple Jacks Making of SW vid, and that's pretty neat, but I feel more needs to be out there regarding the making of ESB.
Can anyone point me in the right direction, if one exists?

Hey Guys,
I'm new here. Just found this site, through another hunting site I frequent.
I'm From BC Canada, do quite a bit of hunting, birds and big game. After really getting addicted to ducks last year, I have decided to finally take on the huge responsibility of a dog. Problem is I am allergic to labs and most dogs. That left me with about 5ish choices of retrieving dogs as far as I could see (with limited shedding). I Wanted something that was a real hunter too, not a show dog. I looked at poodles, Portuguese water dogs, Wire hair griffons, GWP's, and then found something called a Pudelpointer. As there isn't a lot of information on them, and most people initially think of labradoodle, I have included some information on them as they are a breed of their own, and not a mutt. This is the dog I will most likely end up with.
Breed: Pudelpointer
Type: Pointer
Hunting Style
The Pudelpointer is a versatile hunter bred for a combination of a very good nose plus speed, endurance and hunting desire. They will exhibit natural pointing and hunting instincts and will enthusiastically retrieve on land and water.General Appearance
The Pudelpointer is a large breed with a dense, wiry coat that is known for very limited shedding. Color should be liver or chestnut but black is also seen on occasion. Tails are generally docked to roughly 2/3 of the original full length.Size
Height usually ranges from 21 to 26 inches from the ground to the highest point of the shoulders and weight usually ranges between 44 and 66 pounds.Disposition
While not a popular breed in the United States, the Pudelpointer is becoming more widely recognized due to its combination of hunting ability and disposition. The breed is generally viewed as an excellent companion in a home environment and is easily trained.
and so that leaves me with a few questions. I am hoping to start with Bill Hillmann's puppy video, to start the training. Is this a good idea, even though this isn't a lab? He says its good for any type of retrieving dog. Is there any better video more suited for training a pointer? I am hoping to make this more of a duck dog, as thats what I do more of.
Here are some hunts from the past season

Betty was born June 27, 1943, in Princeton to Arnold and Opal (Searl) Pinter. She was united in holy matrimony to Billy Linker on Sept. 6, 1964, in St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church on the Hill in rural Princeton.
She was a graduate of Berlin Center School and Malden High School. A life-long member of St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church ("The Church on the Hill") of rural Princeton, Betty was active in many of the parish's ministries, notably Women of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the parish's quilting ministry and served as a Sunday school teacher. In the 1960s and 1970s, she worked at Bureau Service Co. in Princeton for more than a decade.
A devoted farm wife, Betty was a homemaker and enjoyed tending a large vegetable and flower garden.
Betty is survived by her husband, Bill of rural Princeton; two sons, John (Molly) Linker of Lexington, Ky., and Will (Jolene) Linker of rural Malden; three grandchildren, Haleigh, Lila and Ella; a brother, Merrill Pinter of Kewanee; a sister-in-law, Carolyn Cloues of Birmingham, Ala.; nine nieces and nephews, cousins and countless friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents, one brother and one sister-in-law.
Services will be at 11 a.m. Friday at St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church on the Hill with the Rev. Kim-Lee Brown officiating. Burial will follow in the St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church on the Hill Cemetery.

Beige storage-like units line the 17th Street lot where The Cabin recording studio is located. Behind its metal garage door sits a studio filled with equipment, musical talent and artists' dreams. Christian Land, a bass player for the band Gray State, runs the studio. He found the space when he was looking for a place to play.
"This place was wall-to-wall full of recording gear, six different drum sets, it was packed," Land says.
Land wanted to preserve the dying aspect of music.
"If this was torn down 35 years of Sarasota Heritage would have been lost," he said.
The wood-paneled recording studio was built in 1977, for The Allman Brothers, who recorded their second and third albums there. Metallica, The Smashing Pumpkins, Black Crowes, Cher and hundreds of local bands have all come through this studio.
"There is a web that runs through the Sarasota music scene," Land says. "It is all connected, and everyone plays with each other and helps each other. "It's a close-knit community of musicians."
Land believes that Sarasota is on the verge of becoming the music scene it was when the Allman Brothers were here.
Land has been playing in bands since he was 16 years old. He moved 10 years ago to Florida, from Minnesota for the warm weather. When Land isn't working with musicians at the studio he works at Siesta Sports Rentals. He hopes to keep the studio going and rock 'n' roll alive in Sarasota.

VIDEO: Vandals fall to Utah St.
MOSCOW, Idaho – University of Idaho men's basketball couldn't get stops early on one side and didn't maintain any offensive rhythm in a 77-67 home loss to Utah State on Thursday at the Cowan Spectrum.
Idaho falls to 8-12 overall and 4-6 in the Western Athletic Conference, while Utah State moves to 15-5 overall and 6-4 in the WAC.VIDEO: Vandals fall to Utah St.
Despite falling into a deep early hole at 18-3 six minutes in, Idaho climbed back within two with a 15-2 scoring run of its own. After going into the half down 31-25, Idaho kept USU's lead within two possessions for the first portion of the second half until a crucial stretch.
Vandal senior guard Mansa Habeeb hit a contested 3-pointer – just his second of the season – to pull Idaho within two, 46-44, with 10:55 to play. The Vandals would not make another field goal for the next seven minutes and 16 seconds of game time. Meanwhile, USU's TeNale Roland notched back-to-back 3-pointers to spur a 17-3 Aggie scoring run that extended the lead to 63-47 with 3:46 to play.
"We make two defensive errors in a row – we go under two-consecutive ball screens – and give him (Roland) wide-open threes," Idaho head coach Don Verlin said. "Then we turned it over a couple unforced times and it snowballed on us."
Idaho extended the game by fouling for the final three-plus minutes, but could pull no closer than 10 after Utah State extended its lead to a game-high 17 points at the 3:27 mark.
The Vandals, which had out-rebounded their last six opponents, were held to a season-low 16 rebounds and a season-worst negative-11 rebounding margin. It was just the fourth time this season that Idaho has been out-rebounded. The team entered the game ranked 25th in the NCAA with a plus-7.0 rebounding margin.
"When we were able to get the stops, it seemed like they'd get the offensive rebounds," Verlin said. "They missed 19 shots and they get eight of them back. It's hard to beat a team when they get that. We weren't quick enough in our rotations and they just physically dominated us in the paint."
USU's Jarred Shaw led all players with 27 points on 12-of-15 shooting, along with nine rebounds. Guard Marcel Davis added 16 points and Spencer Butterfield posted a double-double with 11 points and 10 boards.
Sophomore guard Connor Hill and junior guard Stephen Madison tied for the Idaho lead with 14 points apiece, while junior guard Robert Harris added 13 points and senior center Kyle Barone scored 11 points and grabbed seven rebounds while dealing with foul trouble a large portion of the game.
As a team, Idaho shot 25-of-47 (.532) overall and 10-of-19 (.526) from 3-point range. The 10 made 3-pointers were a team season high for the season. The Vandals entered the game shooting a WAC-best .775 from the free throw line, but went just 7-of-13 (.538) on Thursday.
Utah State went 28-of-47 (.596) from the floor – an Idaho opponent season high this season – and added a 6-of-13 (.462) clip from long range. The Aggies converted 15 of their 19 free throws for a 78.9 percentage.
Idaho will wrap up the home stand on Saturday, when the Vandals host San Jose State at 7:05 p.m. at the Cowan Spectrum. The Spartans are 9-12 overall and 3-7 in the WAC after a 56-48 road loss at Seattle U on Thursday. Idaho will be looking for a season sweep after its 64-55 road win at SJSU on Jan. 3.
"They're very good defensively," Verlin said of the Spartans. "I've seen in the stats that they're a very good defensive team. They've got some good size, they're a very good rebounding team and they play with a lot of heart."

Apr 15, 2013I'm happy to say that this turned out just as awesome as you'd expect from a project like this. Considering the album's extensive roster, II'm happy to say that this turned out just as awesome as you'd expect from a project like this. Considering the album's extensive roster, I think a track-by-track analysis is the best way to go about this review. Opening track Heaven and All (basically Black Rebel Motorcycle Club with Grohl on drums) is a heavy, driving riff-rocker that really starts the album off with a bang. Time Slowing Down (feat Masters of Reality's Chris Goss & the rhythm section of Rage Against the Machine) seamlessly trades off between dreamy & almost psychedelic verses & a Foo Fighters-esque chorus/guitar lead. You Can't Fix This (feat Stevie Nicks, Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins & Wallflowers keyboardist Rami Jaffee) has all the makings of a great Rumours-era Fleetwood Mac song; incredibly catchy melodies, poetic lyrics centered around betrayal & the end of relationships, guitar leads that are both jangly & twangy, and Nicks' distinct raspy vocals in top form. The Man That Never Was (basically Foo Fighters fronted by Rick Springfield) is an angsty hard rock song with a multitude of awesome riffs, and finds Springfield in a much more edgy mode than we ever saw on Jessie's Girl. Your Wife Is Calling (feat Hawkins, Fear frontman Lee Ving, Queens of the Stone Age bassist Alain Johannes & Foo Fighters/Germs/Nirvana guitarist Pat Smear) is admittedly a song that took a while to grow on me. It has a hardcore punk-like feel, goofy & repetitive lyrics, and throughout it rides a very odd groove that I can barely tell the time signature of. It's an oddball of a track but by the 3rd listen I was hooked. From Can to Can't (feat Slipknot/Stone Sour frontman Corey Taylor, Cheap Trick guitarist Rick Nielsen & Kyuss/The Obsessed bassist Scott Reeder) is a dark moody epic about what I'm interpreting as being told from the point of view of a man who's questioning his faith in a higher power after a loved one dies. It does a great job of building throughout too, with the instrument getting heavier & Taylor's vocals getting more emotionally-driven over the course of its 5-minute length. Centipede (feat QOTSA frontman Josh Homme, Johannes & Goss) is a much more acoustic-based track than the other ones here, being driven throughout by a quickly-picked guitar riff & switching into rock mode about halfway in. Honestly though this is probably the only song I have a gripe with; while it's in general very well-written, to me the acoustic first half runs about a minute too long & eventually loses my interest until the 2nd half. Still, it's overall a very good track. A Trick with No Sleeve (feat Homme & Johannes) is another solid rock track, even if there aren't really any compliments I can give it I haven't already given to other ones here. Cut Me Some Slack (feat Smear, Nirvana bassist Krist Noveselic & Paul McCartney) was the first impression we got of the album and man, was it a good one. It features a killer riff/groove & Sir Paul wailing his geriatric butt off over his heaviest song since Helter Skelter. If I Were Me (feat Jaffee, former Jayhawks violinist Jessy Greene & renowned session drummer Jim Keltner) is the first of Grohl's 2 lead vocal performances on the album, though neither this nor Mantra (feat. Homme & Nine Inch Nails'/How to Destroy Angels' Trent Reznor) sound like the average Foo Fighters song. The former is a beautifully reflective ballad driven by a steady vocal delivery & harmonic-tinged acoustic guitar riff. The latter is an ambitious sprawling 8-minute alt-rock track that keeps a nice groove throughout driven by spot-on drumming & a very catchy bassline by Homme, and it features both Grohl & Reznor on lead vocals in various points throughout the song, a duet I'm pretty sure many a rock fan has been waiting for for about a decade now. Like From Can to Can't, Mantra does a great job at building, only here it's done a lot more gradually and subtly, and as a result it creates a lot of tension & leads to a fantastic climax. It's overall a great ending to a great album, which you'd expect with such an alt-rock dream trio collaborating on a track. Overall this is a very impressive album, which I frankly wasn't surprised by considering the people Grohl managed to get together for this. It's easily a contender for Album of the Year in my book. Top 5 tracks: You Can't Fix This, Mantra, Cut Me Some Slack, From Can to Can't, Man That Never Was. Score: 91/100… Expand

For what amounts to a collection of jam sessions, most ofI am not sure what the "critics" were expecting here and frankly, I do not care. For what amounts to a collection of jam sessions, most of these songs are better than what a lot of bands put out today as singles. I would not label any of the tracks as true duds, even if there are a few I will probably skip during further listening but I think the key here is that this does warrant further listening. It had the potential to be a throw-away soundtrack but shines like a lost Foo Fighters album with powerful help from other artists. The beautiful thing about that is what is missing the annoying songs that are instantly pop-crafted radio-friendly hits. It seems like every Foo album has a song or two that I really do not like at all and they happen to be the ones that are overplayed on the radio. It definitely warrants a listen to the casual fan, but if you really enjoy the deeper cuts where Dave lets his rock n roll spirit go wild, you will thoroughly enjoy this album.… Expand

There are only 2 tracks on here I gladly skip (Time Slowing Down and From Can to Can't) but the remaining 8 songs I enjoy and don't skip, I enjoy because they're effectively Foo Fighters songs with a couple of high profile friends chipping in. For example, The Man That Never Was just sounds like a Wasting Light b-side. Now that's not a bad thing by any means, but I feel that for this project, Grohl and co. should've tried to create a different sound from the one he's made signature with the Foo Fighters. But I guess that's expected with getting Taylor Hawkins, Pat Smear and Nate Mendel to work on this. (The lack of Chris Shiflett on this surprised me a little.) It comes as no surprise that, any tracks with the magnificent Alain Johannes involved, are among the strongest on the album. All in all, I would recommend this album as I enjoyed it immensely (bar Time Slowing Down and From Can to Can't). Just don't expect anything more than a Foo Fighters' b-sides record.… Collapse

Romantic short films about the sacrifices and struggles we all endure for love. Includes a spectacular new short by Spike Jonze.
How far would you go for love? Would you drive five hours on a bus full of strangers if a court made your relationship legal? Would you leave the comfort of your little fishbowl and cling to a moving truck with all your tentacles? Would you disassemble your own mainframe? The people, robots, and myriad creatures in this program are questing for love. They are willing to make bizarre sacrifices, overcome obscure obstacles, and literally open their guts and hearts to the most seductive of emotions.
This is a program that shows the power (and the dangers) of love. These are films that approach romance from an unusual perspective-passionate, devoted, but skewed. With this show, the lonely will be amused, the disheartened will be inspired, and everyone will be desperate for love.

|Bonefish, Tarpon, and other Obsessions Turquoise water, silver demons on the fly
|Topic Review (Newest First)
Great memories of DIY for big bones around Islamorada particularly Matecumbe and Bahia Honda but back in the 90's and most likely because I had an annual event in Miami from which I could extend days and fish - and gather intelligence over time.
Most influential to my success was Bonefish Bob (RIP) who took a special interest in my success, the big-hearted guy that he was, because I got spooked by hooking a big cuda in a downpour way out on a flat and came into his shop like a drowned cat who had seen a ghost. He laughed, and said hold on until I finish with these customers... then told me exactly what to do, where to stand, what tide phase, which fly etc etc... and I hooked and landed an 8 # bone per his instructions.
I can see how it would be a bust though as Jr Spey says it's no Bahamas or Puerto Rico when it comes to DIY bones or tarpon. Thanks for sharing the report, and Jr Spey, I am again envious of your life
I just got back from two weeks fishing tarpon in Islamorada. I almost answered your initial post by saying do not bother if it is DIY. Fishing there has been tough this year due to weather and low water temps. However, when the weather cooperates the fishing can be superb. For instance, on Monday, May 6 we hooked fifteen tarpon, all by sight fighting on the flats. That was a superb day weather wise and the water temp was in the eighties very early in the morning. You may have had a great time in Key West, but DIY is even tougher there, especially if you do not have access to a yak. I never recommend anyone attempt the Keys DIY. Many do it anyway, but the few locations that have accessible water are usually crowded, with fisherman, swimmers, and the like. You really need to use a guide to be successful. Also, bonefishing has been tough around there the last few years, but there are fish around and we saw several the one day we did not pursue tarpon. They are tough to catch, in many ways as tough as permit, but what you do catch averages considerably more weight than those caught most everywhere else. I have done tarpon there almost every year since 1986. Trust me when I tell you I would have given up a long time ago if there were no fish around.
Aftermath of the trip
There are no Bonefish or Tarpon in Islamorada. We talked to locals and guides and no one has seen or caught Bonefish there in a long while. Several years since consistent bones have been caught.
Tarpon in Islamorada are a tease. We saw plenty of skiffs lined up and waiting for Tarpon, did not see a single hook up the whole time. Very few fish were even rolling at the surface. We saw plenty in Robbies Marina getting fed by tourists. The only hits we got were around 7:30 pm at night on a falling tide about 100 yds from Robbies in the channel as the fish were leaving there easy feeding grounds for the day and heading back to sea or deeper into the channels.
All we saw and caught consistently were barracuda and small bonet head and black tip reef sharks. We managed to catch a few larger mangrove snapper and a 10-12lb Jack.
Islamorada was a joke of a fishing spot, especaially for the fly fisher. Should have gone to Key West.
Suggestions for Locating Bonefish and Tarpon near Islamorada
Some buddies and I are heading to Islamorada this weekend and staying on lower Matecumbe. We have a condo and a boat for the week. We are looking for any good suggestions on where to go to have some descent shots at Bonefish and Tarpon. We have fished the Bahamas several times on different islands, but never the keys. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Gokhan Saki Wants to Fight Melvin Manhoef in Strikeforce
- Written by Dave Walsh
That headline will read as downright odd to anybody who follows kickboxing. Gokhan Saki is known as being one of the most exciting high level kickboxers in the world, who has overcome the odds over and over again. He is one of the few fighters who is always undersized going into his bouts, but always puts his all into every fight, leaving nothing to question.
Well, according to Saki's Twitter account, he wants to fight in Strikeforce.
My arm is oke I hope to fight at glory and in the summer for strike force!
If you are like me, you don't even know what to read into this. It is good that his arm is doing better now, and is perfectly logical that he wishes to fight for Golden Glory's next show, which is coming up in a few months. The surprise is that he wants to fight in Strikeforce. This, coming off some rather substantial rumors that It's Showtime is looking to break into the United States market next year and that their relationship with Scott Coker is "healthy" makes one wonder if maybe there is a chance of seeing some of the best kickboxers in the world fight in the US, regardless of the banner in 2011.
Of course, the kicker was him taking a pot shot at rival Melvin Manhoef.
Yes I like to fight manhoef at mma fight I win for sure by submussion heheheeheh!!!
Gokhan by armbar, somebody book this.
UPDATE: We've received word that this wasn't just a one-off joke post by Saki, there is some weight to this. Saki is in talks with Strikeforce.

Michel NischanGrowing up on a farm instilled in Michel Nischan a deep appreciation for sustainable agriculture and those who work the land. Today, as chef/owner of Dressing Room: A Homegrown Restaurant and regular guest on The Victory Garden, Nischan starts a new chapter in his ongoing story about the love of food and the people who produce it.
It was through his advocacy for a more healthful, organic and sustainable food future that Michel came to know Paul Newman's daughter, Nell Newman. Nell introduced Michel to Mr. Newman when she learned of her father's plans to become involved in a restaurant. Paul and Michel found their beliefs on food, family and community to be remarkably aligned, and Dressing Room evolved as the place where their shared values could have a common home and expression.
In keeping with their altruistic natures, a portion of Dressing Room's proceeds are used to support the adjacent Westport Country Playhouse, the establishment of culinary scholarships and apprentice programs for inner-city children, as well as a community-based edible mentorship program. In addition, Newman and Nischan are the impetus for the Westport Farmers Market at the Westport Country Playhouse, which is the town's first greenmarket (open Thursdays, June through October). Newman's and Nischan appeared on the Friday, Nov. 24 broadcast of ABC World News With Charles Gibson, and were named "Persons of the Week" for their community outreach efforts with Dressing Room and other planned activities.
Michel Nischan is credited with creating a cuisine of well-being, focused on a respect for pure, local, organic ingredients and their intense flavors – without the use of highly processed, overly indulgent ingredients. The inspiration to explore cooking for well-being came in 1994 when his 5-year- old son Chris was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes. "Chris's illness made me realize that floating on foie gras and bathing in butter might not be in the best interests of my customers," says Michel.
In 1997, Michel introduced his groundbreaking new cuisine at Heartbeat restaurant at the W Hotel, located in midtown Manhattan, and was immediately propelled to the forefront of New York's culinary scene.
Since then, he has continued to raise the bar for delicious and healthful cooking and is continually lauded for his dedication to organics, sustainability and cultural food preservation. After years of focusing on healthy, sustainable and culturally significant cooking causes, Michel decided to put his methods down on paper, writing two well-received cookbooks, Homegrown Pure and Simple: Great Healthy Food from Garden to Table (Chronicle Books, 2005) and Taste Pure and Simple: Irresistible Recipes for Good Food and Good Health (Chronicle Books, 2003). Taste was listed as a best-seller in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, and won a 2004 James Beard Foundation Cookbook Award (award winners are selected by industry peers, and more than 600 culinary professionals are involved in the voting process). Michel resides in Fairfield, Conn. with his wife, Lori, and their five children.

Low-density parity-check code - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaLow-density parity-check code - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "In information theory, a low-density parity-check (LDPC) code is a linear error correcting code, a method of transmitting a message over a noisy transmission channel,[1][2] and is constructed using a sparse bipartite graph.[3] LDPC codes are capacity-approaching codes, which means that practical constructions exist that allow the noise threshold to be set very close (or even arbitrarily close on the BEC) to the theoretical maximum (the Shannon limit) for a symmetric memory-less channel. The noise threshold defines an upper bound for the channel noise, up to which the probability of lost information can be made as small as desired. Using iterative belief propagation techniques, LDPC codes can be decoded in time linear to their block length."

In G&G, Matthew Epler restages photos taken half a century ago to tell the life-long love story of his grandparents. The text is minimal and consists of bits of memory as told by the grandparents themselves. Used sparingly, these quoted remarks have much more impact than they would if they were lost in a large body of text.
To view the book full-screen, click on the little square next to the Blurb logo. You might have to squint to read the text, but it's worth doing.
- Bring new life to old snapshots by restaging them in the present. Presenting the two together gives the viewer a reason to really look at them.
- A good, pithy quote can tell a lot more than it says. It engages the reader in a way that a thousand words of third-person explanation doesn't.

I shot a CVA Hawken for years. Moved on to a Knight Wolverine and now have a CVA Optima topped with a Leupold 3X9X40. I love ML hunting about as much as bow hunting. Looking forward to the next segment in Tn. It's usually peak rut in our area but it seems to be earlier this year around here.
