The only difference a rejection makes is it can be resubmitted to another derby (assuming it fits the theme) without being rejected as a resub.

hmmm......I'm not a designer, so I don't pretend to know about these things......but it would seem to me that if woot rejects the design, that they would also be rejecting the rights to that design.
I understand a contract is signed beforehand, so that's not reality. Just too bad for the artist.

I don't see the problem with this shirt. It's been done very well and i could wear it any day of the year . My only quibble is that it woulda been cool to see some little things being sucked into the black hole, but it is still an extremely artistically cool shirt. GMV and congratulations.

So imagine the look on our faces when the roads were still jammed up with cars when we were out looking for food at 6.30pm after work.
We ditched all plans about trying to drive to Chinatown and decided to try our luck at South Melbourne, being the neighbouring suburb. A quick search on Urbanspoon and we found Garmerica, a small cosy place that serves Indonesian cuisine. Something tells me that we will definitely be regulars here after having dined here twice in the one month we have been in Melbourne.
The food is simple and non pretentious. The cuisine is somewhat similar to our Malay cuisine in terms of dishes and flavour profile.

Rays have some All-Star candidates
Rays have some worthy All-Star candidates
The competition in the Devil Rays' clubhouse for that spot is going to be close.
Asked about candidates from his team, manager Lou Piniella listed catcher Toby Hall, outfielder Carl Crawford and infielder Jorge Cantu.
"Toby's been very consistent, Cantu is really hitting the ball and C.C. is coming on," said Piniella. "But Toby, from the start of the season to now, he's been very consistent. He's been hitting around .300 all year, and he's done a real nice job with our pitchers."
Crawford leads the team in RBIs, and Cantu is the team's home run leader with nine.
Fans can vote online or at Tropicana Field until June 26.

FHP wants to raise awareness about hit-and-runs

ORLANDO, Fla. — The Florida Highway Patrol is trying to raise awareness about hit-and-run crashes.
According to FHP, law enforcement officers statewide investigated nearly 77,000 hit-and-run crashes last year. Officials say those crashes injured 17,000 people and killed 168.
At a news conference Monday in Orlando, representatives from FHP, law enforcement officials and families of victims involved in hit-and-run crashes will launch a campaign to raise awareness about the consequences of these kinds of traffic accidents.

I have a real weakness for cupcakes. They're just the perfect portion of cake for me.

Parents can plan ahead, model healthful habits... and not stress out
By MELANIE PLENDA
Special to the Union Leader | May 21. 2013 4:49PM
Burton's Grill, a restaurant chain with a location at Nashua's Pheasant Lane Mall, has developed a "B Choosy" menu that allows parents to have kids' food prepared in healthier ways. (COURTESY)
That intersection doesn't lend itself to eating healthfully for adults or kids, but that doesn't mean it's impossible. While there is absolutely nothing wrong with a splurge or treat here and there, it is important to instill the idea that healthful eating can happen anytime and anywhere.
One of the biggest problems with eating out is the giant portion sizes many restaurants serve, Warner said. A very simple way to combat this is for mom or dad to order an entrée and share it with a kiddo. That way, everyone is getting what they like, they are getting plenty of it, and they are not overdoing it.

i like this a lot. i like the colours, the shape of the 'canvas', the posture of the characters, the characters themselves (including scars, harpoons, and crutch), and it has me wondering whether this scene is on land, or under water (maybe the whaler developed gills? maybe it's captain Ahab? etc.)

E.T. the game was released for the Atari 2600 in 1982. The game proved to be the greatest financial flop in the history of gaming. Supposedly the extra game inventory was driven out to the desert and buried, hopefully to be found by confused future historians.

let me just nip this in the bud right now. I didn't steal this idea from the far side. only after reading these comments I did a google search on the comic in question which is this:
Previous to working on my design I searched as well and never came across this far side comic. So I thought the idea was fresh and funny and just like the Simpsons, its been done before. But this is not a direct lift as you stated tarmawolf as you can see from the original comic. As to it being done as a tee design, I can asure it has not.
Thank you to everyone else who has supported this design and dig it.
I saw that Mario Bros (the arcade game) came out in 83 and jumped at the chance to mash-up two of my favorite things. While Return of the Jedi did come out in '83 kawaiirosalia is apparently right. Goombas weren't around until 85 when Super Mario Bros was released.

UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND, Va. - The University of Richmond Spiders baseball team will play host to their Atlantic 10-conference rival Xavier this weekend for three games this weekend at Pitt Field. The set gets underway on Friday with the first pitch scheduled for 3 p.m.
Fans will be able to purchase a live, SpiderTV broadcast of all three games this weekend at Pitt Field. Live stats will also be available at RichmondSpiders.com.
Scouting the Spiders
The Richmond Spiders come in to this weekend's series with the Xavier Musketeers with an overall record of 15-11 and an Atlantic 10 conference record of 2-1. This past weekend, Richmond opened up league play at La Salle, taking two of three from the Explorers. This past Tuesday, the Spiders dropped a road midweek game at VMI, 4-3.
Leading the way for the Spiders offense this season has been sophomore Mike Small and senior Phil Ruzbarsky. Small leads the team with a batting average of .392, while Ruzbarsky is hitting .359 with eight home runs and seven doubles. Senior Chris Cowell leads the conference and is tied for the national lead with 12 homers on the year.
On the mound, junior Jacob Mayers and freshman Andrew Blum have paced the Richmond staff. Blum has posted a record of 4-1 on the season with a team-best ERA of 3.31. Mayers is 4-2 on the year with 42 strikeouts in 44.1 innings pitched. Senior closer Alex Maffett has tallied a pair of saves to go with a 3.68 ERA.
Scouting the
The Xavier Musketeers come to Richmond this weekend with an overall record of 11-17 on the season and an A-10 conference mark of 2-1. Last weekend, the Musketeers took two of three from Charlotte at home before dropping a midweek contest to Wright State, 5-2.
Headlining the Xavier offense this season has been a pair of sophomores - Selby Chidemo and Brian Bruening. Chidemo leads the team with a .340 batting average, while Bruening has hit a team-best two home runs and driven in 18 RBIs. As a team, the Musketeers are hitting .263 on the year with four homers and 112 RBIs.
The pitching staff has been the strength of the Musketeer ball club in 2012, led by junior closer Seth Willoughby. Willoughby has tallied five saves while posting a minuscule ERA of just 0.55. Redshirt-sophomore Vinny Nittoli leads Xavier with three wins on the season, while junior Jon Richard has struck out a team-high 27 batters in 41.1 innings pitched.
The Series
In the series history between Richmond and Xavier dating back to the 2006, the Spiders hold an 8-6 record over the Musketeers. Last season, Richmond took three of four meetings against XU, including a 5-4 win in the Atlantic 10 Tournament.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Here's a chart. Rear End Widths Note the S-10 7.5 rr is not on there, it's 56" and suitable for only low-hp...but common. Most of the narrower factory rears that can support power (Maverick or Mustang II 8", Mopar A-body 8 3/4) have been picked or scrapped years ago so happy hunting. Btw all are measured from the wheel-mounting flanges.
where is that measurement coming from.. inside backing plate or to front of drum ??? i have a '67 mustang on my bucket, and i'm thinking its around 54" to the backing plates. the pre '67's have a reduced axle housing.. meaning at the diff it's 3" and drops to 2" at the backing plate... '67 is straight 3". my numbers may be off but u get my point..thats an 8" too..
model A parts swap
Be aware . Different years used different parts usually the 5 lug maverick is an 8 inch, Read up on the Wiki here on hotrodders on how to identify rear ends. My Roadster was built over 20 years ago, never completed . It has several things I don't like and plan on changing. The Maverick 8 in rear was installed with coil springs. NOT coilovers. the home made 4 bars used toyota tie rods. about the size of my pinky finger. the front has a 40's axle with more toyota parts. welds to the axle and various places on the frame. I have another frame I plan on using and will use different parts. and will sell the rolling chassis for a rat rod, My choices, I have a stock front axle, a 40's car front susp complete and a 46 lincoln front suspension with the good big drum brakes. Buick finn brakes in a box. and 40 spindles with 65 Mustang 4 piston disc conversions. For the rear I have a mustang 8 out of a 70, about 2 inch too wide, a 5.0 mustang "posi rear with 5 bolt disc conversions, I have located a 65 mustang K car in a wrecking yard with the 9 in rear, the owner just hasn't said what he wants for it. You can buy the various conversions pieces, just have to decide if rear coil overs or a leaf, Welder series sells a weld it yourself hot rod parts. I usually build all my own parts.,,, I have a mill, lathe , plasma, pattern cutter, etc.
what rearend will fit under a model A
Anyone know what rearend will fit under a model-a I think it measures 56.50 inches,and I think a maverick rearend will fit. I am going to remove the tork tube and run a open rearend. All help is appreciated

Click any word in a definition or example to find the entry for that word
the activity of talking on a mobile phone in an animated and deliberately audible manner, especially in order to impress people
'He may engage in what researcher Sadie Plant, author of the Motorola report, refers to as "stage-phoning", in which the caller is effectively performing for innocent bystanders … In extreme cases, performance may, in fact, be the entire point of the call.'The Chicago Tribune 17th July 2002
'At just the wrong moment, "his phone rings and interrupts him in mid-sentence, and his fictional deal is exposed." Plant lumps him in with other "stage-phoners" – people who use their cell phones as props.'www.horizonzero.ca November 2002
We've probably all had the slightly annoying experience of sitting on the train or bus next to somebody who is talking on their mobile phone so loudly that we can't quite concentrate on anything else but listening to them! Mobile phones, love them or hate them, have become an integral part of our daily lives, where we all regularly observe examples of rather obtrusive mobile phone use. Now we have a term which fills a gap in the lexicon for describing this phenomenon – stage phoning.
one of the few parts of the world which is not, quite literally, a stage, for these people, is the so-called 'quiet carriage' now designated on many trains
A person who engages in stage-phoning is someone who talks loudly on their mobile in a deliberate attempt to attract the interest and attention of people around them. Such individuals appear to be behaving as if they were giving a performance, with the mobile as a theatrical prop, hence the use of the word stage. The derived noun stage-phoner has been coined to describe these types, who in American English are sometimes also referred to by the rather derogatory term cell (phone) jerk. We meet stage-phoners at every street corner, waiting room or café. One of the few parts of the world which is not, quite literally, a stage, for these people, is the so-called 'quiet carriage' now designated on many trains!
The word stage-phoning was coined in 2001 by Dr Sadie Plant of the Centre for Cybernetic Culture, based at the University of Warwick in the United Kingdom. The term was introduced in a groundbreaking study commissioned by Motorola, entitled On the Mobile: The Effects of Mobile Telephones on Social and Individual Life (October, 2001), which took researchers to nine cities worldwide, from New York to London. The study identified a variety of behaviours that demonstrate the dramatic impact mobile phones are having on the way that people interact. Dr Plant proposes a division of mobile phone users into two types, which she refers to as innies and outies (not to be confused with informal ways of describing the shape of a person's belly button!). An innie is someone who uses their mobile phone discreetly and unobtrusively, often finding a quiet and private place to continue a phone call. An outie, by contrast, is someone who will have their mobile phone out in the open and openly receive calls in any location, often maintaining the mobile phone conversation alongside whatever dialogue they were engaged in at the time of the call.

Time to skate
Snow pile serves as ad for Durham skating rink
By GRETYL MACALASTER
Union Leader Correspondent | October 29. 2013 8:30PM
A large pile of snow appeared in Durham last week, coinciding with the opening of the Churchill Rink at Jackson's Landing. Rink employee Kirk Sim said he thought it would help get people in the spirit of the skating season and draw attention to the rink's opening, and it has, with about 80 people participating in the public skate on Sunday. The rink is open to the public daily for the remainder of the season. (KIMBERLEY HOUGHTON PHOTO)
It has drawn many curious residents and visitors who have stopped to take photos of the foliage-surrounded pile of white near the entrance to the Churchill Rink at Jackson's Landing.
The public skating rink opened for the season last Monday, and Sim said he wanted to do something to entice people to come skate, even though it may not yet be at the forefront of their minds.
"The week before was quite warm … so you see the snow and start thinking about the changing season and about using the rink," Sim said.
The rink was originally completely open to the elements and had a sand bottom and no boards, and has continued to evolve since then.
Public skate times are offered daily in addition to drop-in hockey games, rental availability, hockey games and other events.
As Durham resident Patty Farrell skated around the rink with friend Ryan Parker on Tuesday, their two children, Dax Farrell, 2, and Zachary Parker, 4, sat on the sidelines playing cell phone games after their first day on the ice.
She said she and the kids love the snow pile adorning the entrance.

LP party Abortion matter of personal choiceDrugs should be legal personal choiceNo control over monopoly because of unfettered capitalismfree trade accross borders no border controlJust to name a few. No LP is not traditional conservative and advocates anarchy not small government.
Jesus would have been a libertarian if He was around today. Wasn't it God Himself who gave us freedom of choice? Just like charity should be a personal choice and has been distorted by socialists to make it seem that charity should be administered by the government, individual liberty is bening subverted by so called conservatives who say that our choices should also be administered by the government. They say that marijuana is evil and should be kept illegal ye thty eignore that it was their God who actually made marijuana and all the other plants in the Garden of Eden. There was only one plant that we were not allowed to touch or eat of it's fruit and I don't think it was marijuana. So to advocate one or more plants that God made and said in Genesis "it is good and for your use" is to say that God made a mistake. That He wasn't wise because He didn't know what we would do might be evil. Yet we also ignore Jesus too when He said "it's not what goes into a man that defiles him but what comes out". We also ignore Paul when he said "happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he does".I wonder what some people think "libertarian" really means?
Does Santorum (or any one else for that matter) have a plan to pay off the national debt ($16 trillion) in the next 20 or 30 years?If not how can they be called "conservative?"
Okay, Olddad, you can bash libertarians if you like, but if you're a conservative as you claim to be, how could you possibly vote for Santorum with such an extreme record of supporting unions (who I know you don't like)? And here's a list that's not even complete:Voting to RAISE the debt ceiling five times;Voting with Ted Kennedy on multiple occasions to support the Big Labor Unions agenda;Supporting raising taxes on oil companies, which directly costs Americans more money out of their pockets at the gas pump;Urging more federal involvement in housing with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac;Voting to create a brand new, unfunded entitlement, Medicare Part D, the largest expansion of entitlement spending since President Lyndon Johnson - creating $16 TRILLION in unfunded liabilities;Endorsing liberal Big Government RINOs like Arlen Specter over conservatives. Of course, Specter became a Democrat and worked hand-in-glove with President Obama to pass his radical agenda;Voting for Sarbanes-Oxley, which imposed dramatic new job-killing accounting regulations on businesses;Voting for gun control;Voting to give Social Security benefits to illegal aliens, while voting against an additional 1,000 border patrol agents;Voting to send hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to Planned Parenthood - the nation's largest provider of abortion – and to hand out hundreds of billions of dollars in foreign aid to enemies of Israel.He OPPOSED the right to work act and instead voted to give unions more control and hurt non-unionized workersRick Santorum is NOT a conservative. With the exception of talking like a social conservative, he's a bigger liberal than Romney. He might as well be Barack Santorum!
Ron Paul is the only one who has proposed major cuts. $1 Trillion in the first year alone.
Quote from: tennman on February 10, 2012, 12:53:13 PMRon Paul is the only one who has proposed major cuts. $1 Trillion in the first year alone. Hows he going to do that? He will have no support in Congress from either party. He's never been anything but an anti-gadfly, and has never shown the ability to build a legislative coalition or persuade other MOC's to his points of view.Even if Paul was elected, he cannot unilaterally deliver on any of his big political promises.
John, you are right. "Unnamed Republican" polls better against Obama than Paul does.
Can you read? Again I ask, when/where did I say I supported Santorum?

Does anyone have the direct links to either the torrent or the executable, because the Google url shorting that they are using keeps timing out for me.
This dropbox is the official torrent. https://www.dropbox.com/s/scm563fl6z...064%5D.torrent
There ya go. Though Im not sure why you made a whole new thread for this. Way to be a vet of ONRPG :P. (Im just pulling your leg, but the torrent is real.)
Yea that torrent was also posted on their facebook by one of the staff . Also if anyone already downloaded it and installed , when you start the launcher do you get could not connect to server ? Is that cause the beta didn't start or am i having some problems here with the launcher ...
Beta is starting the 24th. And it its one of those time framed beta's where you can only play at certain times. Though the 24 is the stress test day so it /should/ be up all day.

By BARBARA TAORMINA
Sunday News Correspondent | July 20. 2013 8:00PM
Giovanna Roy of Bedford, also known as Mermaid Giovanna, welcomes kids to have their photos taken with a mermaid. (BARBARA TAORMINA/Union Leader Correspondent)
Coordinated by Denise-Marie McIntosh with the help of dozens of businesses and nonprofit organizations, the festival brings fairy tales to life through story-telling, dance, games, and other activities.
Mermaid Giovanna, aka Giovanna Roy, of Bedford, was a natural to help open an Oceans of Discovery Fairy Fest. Roy, a student at Colby Sawyer College, runs Mermaid Crowns. The company designs sea-themed sculptured headdresses for specialty boutiques.
Roy, a 2011 graduate of Bedford High School, has Asperger's syndrome and is a well-known voice in Southern New Hampshire for raising awareness about autism.
Marissa Bowdin, 9, and her sister, Jaelyn, 6, said they come to the festival every year dressed as fairies. This year, Marissa came as Ariel from Disney's "Little Mermaid," while Jaelyn opted to dress as Belle from "Beauty and the Beast."
Olivia Jackson, 3, of Manchester came as a music fairy with wings made of sheet music.
The mission of Summerfun events is to provide free family entertainment for families who live in and around Nashua.

VBAC Concerns
Jay sent the following question through and asked for help. Can you help Jay?I'm 39+2 today, I was going to try a VBAC but with no induction, sweeps etc I asked if I could have a C Section booked on stand by incase needed. I was given a date 15 days after my due date apparently they had my due date wrong? Now I'm having anxiety attacks as I know going over increases still birth. All I want us my baby here safe. I don't care how she gets here, I'm doubting having a VBAC not because of pain but I'm worried about been left. Some trusts only leave VBAC ladies 7 days overdue is it really safe to go further over?
I don't see a Doctor until I'm 40+3 so got a full week of worry. There's no-one else I can talk to. Thanks.
24th June 2011 11:02 PM #2
Dear Jay - Stillbirth rates at 40 weeks are extremely low. Babies are ment to be born around full term (i.e. 37 to 42 weeks). Are you able to contact your midwife or doctor an talk about your anxiety? Can I suggest reading about Vaginal Birth after Caesarean. There are lots of wonderful websites and articles that might help.

you might have to go with the kuryakyn side mount like Mr T has, it mounts further toward the back tire on the swing arm. He has a good pic of it in his gallery.
I checked out the site, the pictures there were a big help, made me think about a few things being able to see how the look there, idea of clearances, etc. I am wondering about them clearing the big ugly nut there under the passenger peg because that thing sticks out a bit further then i thought. But I like the ones they have.on a different note, I have 5 buddies I go on a trip with once or twice a year depending on our work schedules.A couple of them I jokingly say are gambling addicts, they bet on anything....so we always go once a year to Charles Town WV for the horse track and casino there. How close is that place to you?We usually make a long weekend of it, ride skyline drive while there...ride during day, gamble & drink at night....thank god for the casino shuttles to get us back to our rooms safely every night..

Remember the name Serge Gnabry - because the young forward is certainly one to watch.
The Germany youth international enjoyed an excellent first season at Arsenal after joining the Club as a first-year scholar from Stuttgart last summer.
Being one of the younger members of Steve Bould's Under-18s set-up certainly did not phase the 16-year-old and he quickly made the step up to the reserves.
It was just reward for an exciting year on the wing for the Under-18s, for whom Serge scored six goals. His scorching debut effort against Crystal Palace was a sign of things to come, with superb strikes against the likes of Leicester and Charlton also catching the eye.
A consistent season in the second string is the next step for the youngster, who could earn himself a place in Arsène Wenger's Carling Cup squad sooner rather than later if he continues to sparkle.
"I am enjoying it very much, it's a big club and a big opportunity for me. Arsenal give young players in the first team, also the reserves is a good level so I am developing myself. I hope to get a chance in the first team. It was a big move for me to come here but it is a dream for every kid to play for Arsenal. You can be proud of yourself if you come here."
Depite having only just turned 16, it didn't take Serge long to make an impact in Steve Bould's Under-18s. Turning his man 30 yards from goal, the young German drove forward before planting an unstoppable drive past the Crystal Palace goalkeeper. Quite the entrance.

Canisius College head men's basketball coach Jim Baron was one of six Division I head coaches to be inducted into the New England Basketball Hall of Fame when the Class of 2013 was officially recognized June 22, at the DCU Center in Worcester, Mass. Baron's oldest son Jimmy, who played collegiately at the University of Rhode Island from 2006-09, was also honored as part of the 2013 induction class.
Jim Baron was honored for his 11-year career as the University of Rhode Island head coach. During that time, the Brooklyn, N.Y., native led the Rams to 184 wins, six postseason appearances (all 20-win campaigns) and a four-week stint in the national rankings during the 2007-08 season. In 2009-10, Baron's Rhode Island team won 26 games and made a trip to the NIT Final Four in Madison Square Garden, the program's first NIT semifinal appearance since 1946.
The other coaches that were inducted June 22 along with Baron were Kentucky head coach John Calipari (for his time at UMass), former Holy Cross head coach Jack Donahue, Drexel head coach Brusier Flint (for his time at UMass), former Maine head coach Brian McCall and former Holy Cross head coach Ralph Willard, who is now an assistant coach at Louisville.
The New England Basketball Hall of Fame inducted its first class in 2002. Other classes have been inducted in 2003, 2004, 2006 and 2009. There are 30 categories for players, coaches and teams in each class. Awards are given to inductees in 12 special categories such as: administrator, contributor, media, military, the hearing impaired, disabled and Special Olympics Basketball.
In his 26-year career, Baron has complied a total of 409 wins, and he's led 12 teams to the postseason, including the 2012-13 Canisius team, which went 20-14 overall and advanced to the quarterfinal round of the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament. The 2012-13 season was Baron's first at Canisius, where he helped guide the Golden Griffins to their first 20-win season since 2000-01, and the team's 15-game win differential between 2011-12 and 2012-13 was the third largest single-season turnaround at the Division I level.Baron, a four-time Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year honoree, was named the 23rd head coach in school history April 2, 2012. He is the only coach in program history to win 20 games in his first year at the helm of the program and under his leadership, the Blue and Gold set new program records for total points scored in a season (2,499), 3-point field goals made (313) and 3-point field goals attempted (818). A finalist for the 2012-13 Hugh Durham Award, presented annually to the nation's top mid-major head coach, Baron led the Griffs to wins over all three local rivals (Buffalo, Niagara and St. Bonaventure), the first time Canisius accomplished that feat since the 2000-01 campaign.

GREENSBORO, N.C. -- North Carolina placed five Tar Heels on the 2013 ACC All-Academic Team on Monday, led by two-time honorees Benton Moss and Chris Munnelly.
Moss and Munnelly were joined on the team by freshman Trent Thornton, sophomore Michael Russell and junior Kent Emanuel.
To be eligible for consideration, a student-athlete must have earned a 3.00 grade point average for the previous semester and maintained a 3.00 cumulative average during his academic career.
Emanuel earned ACC Pitcher of the Year honors for his junior campaign as the Woodstock, Ga., native posted an 11-5 record in a league-leading 132.1 innings of work.
Moss was 8-1 in his sophomore season with a 3.77 ERA in 19 appearances and 16 starts as Carolina's Saturday starter. Moss recently claimed top academic honors for the Tar Heels at the College World Series.
Munnelly appeared in 22 games with eight starts and turned in a career-low 2.39 ERA. The Winston-Salem, N.C., native recently graduated from UNC with a degree in management.
Russell anchored the second-best fielding percentage team in school history in 2013 as the sophomore shortstop appeared in 70 games and posted a .298 average with 18 stolen bases.
Thornton played a variety of roles for the Tar Heels in 2013 en route to a team-best 1.37 ERA in 91.2 innings of work. The Charlotte, N.C., native also set the school record for wins by a freshman with a 12-1 mark.

"Helping people that listen, play and produce music with a new generation of revolutionary instruments, powerful and easy to use." – IK Multimedia
IK Multimedia have been producing music software products since 1996 and are directly operating in Italy, Japan, the US and UK. Taking advantage of the progressive market of personal computing and mobile gadgets, IK Multimedia aimed to revolutionise the way in which we create and play music.
One of the company's more recent releases is the AmpliTube iRig, which was developed with one of IK's referenced partners, Apple. Created using specially designed music software, the iRig enables its user to simply plug a guitar into an iPhone//iPod Touch/iPad and basically have a jam session, anytime, anywhere with a selection of guitar and bass tones. IK Multimedia are creating items that are simply "made" for musicians, those of us who eat, sleep and breathe music, making it easy for us to do what we love, whenever we hear the call.
Producer, songwriter and guitarist Geo Slam has worked with the likes of Lady Gaga, Enrique Iglesias and U2, alongside the Grammy-winning production team Red One, that brought us hits like Gaga's 'Poker Face' and Akon's 'Against the Grain'.
The Red One "sound" is currently dominating the charts from artists like Pixie Lott and Sean Kingston and the recent release of Jason Derulo's 'Fight for You' was produced by the Red One team, who handled backing vocals, instrumentation, programming and the track also features Geo Slam on guitar.
What did Geo have to say about the IK Multimedia AmpliTube iRig?
"Easy to plug in and you are ready to record in seconds. The sound is amazing and extremely accurate, the converter is brilliant! This is a definite favorite and a friend on the road!"

AW heck! they were probably just trailer trash anyway, livin on welfare , screwin up ar American Kuntry! To Bad sombud didn't spike the door shut with them init! What do you want to bet they didn't have any insurance? Probably couldn't afford any of that stuff either! Would that make it doubly sad? Capitalism at it's worst - if you can't afford it / do without!
QuoteWhat would Jesus do?render unto Caersar.....?
render unto Caersar.....?Ah Religion, .... if I remember right .... Jesus was talking about (wait for it) TAXES ..... paraphrasing...he asked the man who's likeness was on the coin used to pay taxes! When the reply was ' Caesar ' Jesus said ' render unto the Lord what is the Lords and render unto Caesar what is Caesars' I take it as Jesus saying: Pay your taxes! Another statement out of the Bible: It is harder for a rich man to get to heaven than getting a Camel through the eye of a needle! :devilbanana:

Discussion in 'Off The Beaten Track' started by ilovepaydays, Mar 11, 2013.
Is it the general sentiment here that having children when you're young is a bad thing?
Most people don't reach their potential.
Oh, but the Duggar girls don't even have a chance.
Neither do most people.
On the scale of "People Who Don't Make The Most of Themselves Because Their Parents Totally Screwed Them Up," the Duggar girls are doing pretty well.
I realize that in an ideal world, everyone's lives would reflect the values of the majority here--that life is all about getting a formal education, seeking self-fulfillment, and preferably living without religion at all--but it's not an ideal world . Isn't it for them to decide for themselves what self-fulfillment means? What is the difference between their parents telling them "This is how you should live in order to lead a good life" and everyone else telling them "This is how you should live in order to lead a good life"?
None of us create ourselves, no matter how much we like to think we do.
I don't think being religious precludes pursuing dreams and aspirations, developing a career or getting married at an older age if you so choose. I know religious women who have done all these things, or some of these things, rather than staying at home to look after their siblings while their mother has another baby that they will have to care for. The point most people here seem to be getting at is that the Duggar girls were never given a choice; they didn't choose their life, it was chosen for them. That's not to say they would have chosen college-career-marriage if they had other options, just that the decision doesn't appear to have even a been possibility for them.
Unless their parents have locked the children in the house every moment that they're not on TV, I don't think the girls have had any fewer choices than any child raised by strict parents, no matter what their religion. And in any case, none of the Duggar girls are married yet, are they? How do we know what they'll choose? And even if they do choose home, family, etc, who's to say it isn't their choice?
This is FSU. You know there is no such thing as a "general sentiment."
As some of you know, I have no problem with religion. Nor do I have any problem with childbearing in one's twenties (I had hoped to do it myself, only it didn't work out). But while I appreciate Prancer's point of view and think she expressed it well, I do think there are some spiritually abusive philosophies and practices that are part of the belief systems that the Duggars are associated with. When I say "spiritually abusive," I'm referring to things like coercion, degradation, and emotional blackmail -- to treating women and children as inferior and a means to an end. And as with most forms of abuse, while it's possible to walk away from them, it's not always easy.
(For those who want to learn more on the subject, Hillary MacFarland's book "Quivering Daughters" is a good place to start.
Yes. And that book is a very good place to start. As is Katheryn Joyce's Quiverfull: Inside the Christian Patriarchy Movement
I would also suggest reading about Michael and Debi Pearl's "No Greater Joy" ministries which is linked and recommended on the Duggar family's website. Their child discipline materials have been linked to abusive deaths of very young children. The Duggars use their "blanket training" method and who knows what else from their very abusive philosophies that include corporal punishment even for infants. I'm sorry, but child abuse is not a topic that I will say "live and let live" about.
And you know this how?
From the horse's mouth:
Scroll to the bottom of this article where there is a screen cap of the Duggar family website's links to materials by the Pearls:
On their current site this page links Vision Forum, ATI, The Botkin sisters' materials on "Stay at Home Daughters" and a number of other patriarchy organizations.
It has been a good while since we had the relativity discussion but I thought we had come to a consensus that it is a zero sum game to say we shouldn't be judgmental, or that we shouldn't advocate a particular viewpoint ...since that is also judgmental, or advocating a particular viewpoint. There is no way to pull yourself out of the equation and not be taking a position of proper behavior - even if you are advocating no position at all, that is still a position.
I don't know dippy doo about the Duggars but I think patriarchy sucks. And I am happy to say it.
Not exactly. Who are Lily and Ellie?
Whatever genuine exposure the Duggar children may have had to the world outside/beliefs other than their own, is likely under tightly controlled conditions; which makes the idea of real "choice" in the the matter, questionable.
You are very invested in these people being paragons of virtue, aren't you? Here is Michelle explaining how she does it:
Note that the first link quotes an interview with Michelle. Do you need her to come to your house and show you her "To Train Up a Child" book? It has great material in it about hitting kids with piping. Or there is the Botkin sisters' book and site recommended on the Duggars' own website which teaches young women to strive to serve their fathers, think like their fathers and perhaps come to the Vision Forum daddy daughter retreat where they can shave their fathers as an act of servitude. Or Debi Pearl's book "Created to Be His Helpmeet" which explains to women that if their husband abuses them it is because they are not submissive enough.
Not at all. I wouldn't choose that lifestyle and think it's not a good way to raise children.
Of course it's a possibility. A probability? Maybe not. But it's not impossible.
What did your parents tell you to do with your life?
On FSU? I don't think that's ever happened.
And that's great of you and all; now tell me why the Duggars should agree with you.
PDilemma, thanks for detailing why I doubt that "choice" exists for/in families who practice this belief system.
I've never liked the way the Duggar parents force their four oldest daughters to act as unpaid full-time servants. Sure, it's common for kids to have chores, but this is far beyond that.
Essentially, you are asking me to make an argument for my position - perfectly fine. I believe gender equality is a superior position to patriarchy -
1) Based on an assumed a moral truth that women and men are equally free, and therefore should have equal ability to make their own choices about education, career and family. To restrict the choices of females to wife and mother, ruled by father or husband, denies any moral truth that women are created equal to men, and are created equally free, free to pursue options as they desire. Similarly, to limit the choices of males to bread winner and authoritarian denies their full agency.
2) Because promoting gender equality can promote economic growth, increased GDP, and improved social welfare. http://econ.worldbank.org/WBSITE/EX...theSitePK:7778063~contentMDK:22851055,00.html http://www.economonitor.com/blog/2013/03/gender-equality-pays-off-in-brazil/
3) Diversity in leadership improves creativity, problem solving, morale, productivity, etc.
Do I think that would change the minds of the Duggars? No, but that is only partly the point. Advocating for your ideas helps ensure those ideas won't die. Religions know evangelism works. They have been doing it for millennia.
They did not tell me to do anything other than to make sure I leave myself a variety of options (=do well enough in school). Other than that, I made my own choices and if I ever wanted their advice, I asked for it. Certainly they never imposed their beliefs on me.
I was asking directly, not essentialyl, or so I thought.
And those are all good arguments, although they address the issue from a standpoint irrelevant to the Duggars.
So perhaps more to the point--in what way does it matter to any of your arguments that this one family does what they do--or even that people in their entire movement do what they do? All of your arguments (except the first one) were about society overall.
There aren't enough of these people to make any difference to society. There is no chance that their way of life will become dominant or will be imposed on the rest of us. There is no indication that their movement is becoming widespread.
So society will continue to develop as it will without the Duggars or their input.
As for your moral argument, one must assume that it is true in order to agree with it. Let us say that most of us assume that it is true. Do we have the right to impose that particular belief on everyone?
I'll bet the Duggar girls would say the same of their parents. Because your parents impose their beliefs on your every single day of your life with them--whether you realize it or not. There is no way to avoid it. I impose my beliefs on my children by living in the way that I think I should and raising them as I believe they should be raised. That's what parents do. You are your beliefs. It can't be any other way. If I believe that my children should make their own choices about their adult lives, then I am going to raise them that way--and impose upon them the responsiblity of making choices rather than choosing for them.
I've said enough about my childhood on FSU for you to know that my parents didn't say much of anything about what I should do with my life. My father molested me so, if he were to have put it into words, I guess he would have told me to sleep with him because my mother was a frigid whore and we were in lurve. Or something mentally twisted like that. My mother did her best but her life was falling apart and she was saving herself. So she was doing things like taking me to bars when I was 16 and taking me to hash parties when I was older so she could pretend that she wasn't abusing drugs and alcohol. Then again, a rising tide raises all boats, so I won't discount the boost her efforts to right her own life made in helping me escape from my childhood situation.
I told myself to get an education and get the f*ck out of there. My mother wasn't so far gone that she put any obstacles in my way and even helped me as much as she was able. My father continued to use us as pawns in his fight with my mother and his own sicknesses and contributed a grand total of $3000 towards my upbringing between the ages of 14 and 21 (and nothing after that, not even birthday presents) and tried his damnedest to ensnare me at every opportunity without much success.
So, yes, people can "get out" of all sorts of situations and throw off all sorts of upbringings but my sisters did not fair nearly as well as I did given the same situations and the same upbringing.
I think the key as to whether you can get out is two-fold... it's easier to get out of a neglectful situation than it is one where there is a lot of control and your environment is carefully filtered. I spent most of my childhood both reading anything I could get my hands on and watching anything I could watch. That opened me up to many ideas and expanded my world considerably. Knowing that other people didn't live like we did helped me get through many bad times and gave me the tools to escape. The other thing that helps is personality. I am driven and I am stubborn and I have supreme confidence in my own judgment. All of those things help someone break from authority. In fact, they make breaking from a situation like the Duggars inevitable. But not everyone is like that.
And speaking of having supreme confidence in my own judgment, to answer your other question:
The Duggars should agree with me because I am right and they are wrong.
I would be surprised if they would say that. I think they would say something like their parents told them to make sure their life was open to God's Will or something like that. Being open to options -- all options -- doesn't seem to be valued in that belief system. What is valued is being submissive. Guys are submissive to God directly and gals are submissive via their menfolk.
I honestly don't remember you saying a lot about your childhood. Your adulthood, children and husband -yes. But not your childhood.
Of course, one's values are definitely influenced by one's upbringing (whether it be prescribing to your parents' values with some variation or rejection of it due to your reaction to it). However, aren't there degrees in which one's "free will" (if it exists) is severely limited or even oppressed?
I would be because it would be most unusual for them to feel that any of it was forced on them or that they had been told to believe X and so that's what they did. It would also be most unusual for them to have not questioned the lives they lead or to have simply accepted that everything their parents say is true. I know that most of you operate on the assumption that this is the case, but I think it is highly unlikely. No matter how sheltered they are, they still know that they do not live like other people and it would be weird for them to not wonder why.
Their perception of what their lives are like and your perception of what their lives are like are likely two very different things.
Sure. And where are we going to say that line should be drawn?
Last point first, I am not sure anyone said we have a right to impose something on someone. People are just complaining.
To the rest, my initial post specifically said I don't know anything about the Duggars but I dislike patriarchy. And you asked me to argue my posiition, so I did. But as to why the Duggars matter, I think being on television indicates they are fine having the discussion - they likely even want it. So I am all for having the discussion on the topic. I realize some are all bent out of shape by people complaining about reality TV stars, but I don't feel your pain.
But I didn't say they felt forced. I said that the way Zemgirl looked at life "They did not tell me to do anything other than to make sure I leave myself a variety of options (=do well enough in school)" was foreign to their way of thinking. The idea that you try to do well in school so that you have a full palette of options open to you because "you can be/do anything if you set your mind to it" is just not the focus of that way of life, as you well know.
It's not about your will and your choices and maneuvering yourself into a position where you can take your pick from the smorgasbord of life. It's about listening to the minutia so you can see secret messages from the Big Guy telling you what He wants you do to and having the humility to do it even if it's not what you want to do.
I think, if they were asked this question, they would say something like "My parents taught me to make good choices so that I would have an easier time finding the right guy to provide for me" (i.e., staying pure) instead of "My parents wanted me to go well in school so I could go to any college I wanted and get a good job when I got out." And instead of saying "My parents wanted me have a lot of options" they would say "My parents wanted me to have the humility to submit to God's Will and not grow up to be arrogant and Godless."
I haven't actually got a perception of their lives as I have read nothing about them and never watched their show. (I'm not the one who wanted them to have a nose piercing or a mohawk. Though I think piercings and mohawks can be cool so I'd be on board with them getting some.)
I just don't get why the Duggars inspire so much dislike. How different are they really from the Amish or the Mormons (who have had TV shows about their lifestyles) or Hadasic Jews or Shakers or Muslims when it comes to passing their beliefs on to their children and attemtping to live those beliefs?
Unlike some posters here, I have watched the Duggars show and I find their lifestyle interesting from the point of organization and family dynamics. I find myself watching them the way I'd watch a National Georgraphic series on the Lost Tribes of Borneo or Animal Planets' Meercat Manor. I also know that I'd rather watch the Duggars and their parade of babies than the Kardashians or Lindsey Lohan or the Jersey Shore nutjobs.
Somehow I think if people in this thread were enrolled in Prancer's writing courses, they'd mostly flunk

HI guys.
Im trying to find a thread which was posted here a few weeks ago by a guy called Gino (if I remember correctly) of his white prepro painted helmet.
The thread had a few really nice pictures of this awesome bucket.
Trouble is I've used the advanced search tool and manually gone through all thread pages as far back as May and I just cant find it.
Can anyone here possibly find the link?


text: I am looking for an Imperial Guard Helmet, and I was wondering if anyone on the TDH has one for sale? I would take it in pretty much any condition. I have Looked on ebay, but did not find one. In addition, if anyone knows where I can find templates that I could use to make one. I would totally be up for manufacturing one similar to my Fett bucket. Please post here if you have any info, or PM me if you have one for sale. Thanxs

text: DD, the problem isn't the coach. This roster does not have enough talent to become winners. Q didn't break the team down. The team is 26-51. Q certainly has some work to do on his communication skills. Perhaps his rotations need some work. But, you will get your wish. Q will undoubtedly be gone in a couple of weeks. Do you then think this same roster will be on its way to the promised land with some special coach?

While traditional business literature has identified an aching for leadership qualities in business and government positions, we've all come together to exchange ideas in the last few years- likely making traditional leadership qualities more obtainable than ever before.
Ask any MPA or MBA student about the staple literature for every organizational management course they've taken and you'll likely see their eyes grow dull as they recall Abraham Zaleznik's 1992 Harvard Business Review article, Managers and Leaders: Are They Different? They will grumble the opening words, "What is the ideal way to develop leadership?…" If you haven't read the article, it outlines mutually exclusive and contrasting qualities of leaders and managers. And if you haven't taken a class in which the article was highlighted, the first question seemingly every professor asks is, "Which one are you? A manager or a leader?"
Here's the answer: Thanks in part to the social revolution, we are (increasingly) both.
Here's how managers and leaders measure up, according to Zaleznik's famous article:
And here's how social media and current trends are melding us into leaders:
1) Leaders change what's possible- and thanks to new technologies, we all have an opportunity to do this. Zaleznik draws a strict differentiation between a manager and a leader's attitude toward goals. For managers, goals arise out of necessities, not desires. Leaders, however, "change how people think about what's desirable and possible." Social technologies are increasingly altering the way we communicate, and– in many cases– the ways to use social technologies have not yet been perfected. This provides an incredible avenue for potential leadership, especially for tech-savvy and still-unproven members of Generation Y. Things are changing. Social networks are now hitting more than 50% of the online audience- and there's a rush to get your online strategy figured out by 2014, when social technologies are projected to capture 165 million users. There's a need to be filled. Go leaders (everyone), go!
2) Leaders take a personal, active outlook- like you are taking right now as you read this post. Did you know that there are well over 133,000,000 blogs on the web and more than 346,000,000 people read blog globally? That's a lot of people putting their thoughts into the world- and most of them are not blogging for money. Like leaders, these bloggers are taking a personal, active outlook on their industry or interests. The 346 million blog readers are also taking a personal, active outlook as they subscribe to sites and form their own opinions about what they read. Crowdsourcing (that's a Wikipedia link; I figured it was only appropriate) is growing increasingly common and it is dependent upon people exerting time, energy, and willpower to a problem or cause. Utilizing all of these active leaders on the web has even been championed as a way for organizations to make better decisions.
3) Leaders develop fresh approaches, and we are now armed with more information than ever before. Another quality of leaders– in which managers are again lacking, according to Zaleznik– is that leaders have the rare ability to come at obstacles with fresh perspectives and an ability to increase options. Yes, we are undergoing a social media revolution, but this is occurring in the midst of (or perhaps as a subset of) the much-larger information revolution. Especially in the last 20 years, finding fresh methods to increase options to tackle business problems has become significantly easier. Just hop online and conduct a Google search to discover academic articles and blog posts about techniques being used in any industry. Moreover, not only are lessons regarding your industry of focus shared, but lessons can be easily gathered from other industries allowing folks to gather more information and create these fresh perspectives. Utilizing this technology comes at little cost and, on a similar note, some of the greatest businesses in history were born out of recessions or times of resourcefulness.
4) Leaders make transparency a value. Consumers love social media because doing it well requires brand transparency (and the web is full of tips for marketers about how to do this); whether it's an organizational brand or a personal brand. Truth be told, Zaleznik doesn't use the word "transparency" to describe leaders. He uses "passionate" and "personal." He describes managers, on the other hand, as being apathetic, coercive, detached, and frequently using ambiguous words and gestures to avoid blame. When using social media, those characteristics just won't fly. What does fly is honesty, sincere relationships, and adding value- qualities that align more with leaders in 2010 than with Zaleznik's managerial qualities. In order to successfully utilize social media, you must have at least some of Zaleznik's leadership qualities or you're organization will only have one Facebook fan (Good thing your mom just figured out how to "like" organizations on Facebook).
5) Leaders do not tie their identity to an organization. Leaders and managers possess a very different sense of self, Zaleznik argues. Leaders feel that they are separate from the organizations that employ them while managers feel their organization is tied to individual identity or purpose. Right now, we are experiencing a trend toward organizational separateness. In fact, for members of Generation Y, the line between work and life is so thin that the idea of previous generations feeling intrinsically tied to an organization could be considered extreme to them (well, to us). This is also a generation of multi-taskers with their own ongoing side-gigs that allow them the ability to intertwine work and life by doing the things they love. But Generation Y most certainly isn't the only generation with side projects and developing their own leadership identities! In fact, Peter Drucker's (awesome) Harvard Business Review article, Managing Oneself, is not generally considered an HBR leadership favorite for nothing. Social media helps us bridge the gap between work and life and our professional and personal ventures.
Leaders are traditionally thought to be rare and hard to come by. But it has never been easier to be a leader than it is right now. Times are changing and perhaps we'll even find ourselves in the opposite position in 2042 than we were in in 1992: aching for more analytic managers than awe-inspiring leaders. Or the entire idea of a manager will become irrelevant as organizations become more organic and self-governing… or leaders will evolve to be people who can walk the line between do-er and thinker… or something else will happen as our business practices evolve. Either way, the clear-cut line between the contrasting characteristics of managers and leaders is blurring. Not only are we called upon to demonstrate both skill sets on a day-to-day basis, but we simply must be both managers and leaders in order to compete with our similarly talented peers.

My son was sick today, and we've watched Episode II twice now. I don't know how I missed it before, but it's right there. They show the helmet getting dented. And not in an Expanded Universe kind of way.
I am now convinced Boba takes Jango's helmet for his own. The helemt clearly gets dented in the arena when the three horned beast bowls him over!
I don't know if this has been discussed before, but I was sure excited noticing it for the first time!

'It was Polisseni, Paychex's senior vice president of marketing, who dragged Golisano to at least one NHL game a season, even though Golisano wasn't a fan. It was Polisseni who helped establish youth and adult hockey programs in Rochester. And it was Polisseni who likely would've made a bid to buy the Sabres instead of Golisano.'

Hello all.
I just wanted to start this thread as a show-off and progress thread.
I received my MoW Jet Pack way back in October. Unfortunately, I was a little nervous about painting it myself. I didn't know if I could do it justice.
Well, I finally got the inspiration when Michelle (Mrs. Slave1pilot) called me Rambo.
Heck, if I can kick the dookie out of Brian Dennehy and David Caruso in under an hour and a half, I can tackle a flippin' ROTJ paint job. Am I right?
Well, I cleaned it up, had to use very little bondo and it sanded it down. Got right to work painting the rocket portion, as you can see in the pictures.
Here are some pictures from when I was test fitting it. This was the last thing I had to do before I could start painting. Thanks to fettswatcop for his help here.
Also, when test fitting, you MUST wear ALL of your gear. Even the boots.
It's just cooler that way.
Ok. Following slave1pilot's tutorials for Rattle can ROTJ paint jobs, seen HERE (I did some things in a different order and used a different red...), I was able to get a complete list of colors I needed.
Then I went gung-ho. Working off DarthMiller and the Gang's C4 Reference CD and some of Nate's previous jet packs (which are the print offs seen in the picture), I began.
Please keep in mind that NONE of this is airbrushed... I don't have an airbrush. Only rattlecans and acrylics for me.
Will make another post in a few minutes... stay tuned!

My name is Tara-Jane and I am 31 years of age. I was wondering if you could give me some advice on Teaching English abroad. I have recently done a weekend TEFL course and then went on further to do a CELTA course. I have no degree but do have experience of Teaching English as I have worked in a voluntary position for over a year as a Teaching Assistant to an ESOL qualified Teacher.
I would very much like to Teach in Asia, most likely India and was wondering would I be able to do so without a degree. I would also be willing to learn how to speak the language to help my chances of landing a job in this country and also do you know any websites that would be of any help to me.

I just had some artwork done for this years Imperial Funland Event Logo. A comic book artist by the name of Robbie Musso did this for me. keep in mind that this is only the black and white version. He is working on coloring this artwork and should be done sometime this weekend.
If anyone on here can use this image to create an official logo, it would be greatly appreciated. The logo should have the above image, and should have the title "Imperial Funland Event" somewhere on top. I would also like the date of the event on the bottom of the logo. The date of the event will be November 2, 2008. I know we have several intelligent artists on this forum that can do something with this image. If anyone wants to take on this project, I would be greatly in your debt. I would like to see some examples by the end of this weekend if that is at all possible. I would like to start getting some flyers made up to pass out to the local businesses so I can start collecting donations. I would like to say "Thanks" in advance to anyone who can help with this.

I haven't found a thread on them and only a few reviews. However I went into my local shop to grab some wind duk decoys and 3 guys, seperately, told me " all I need is this wind whacker". It is almost the same price as the wind duk decoys, $54.99 and once I hunt with one of these I will never look back. The other 2 guys basically said the same thing be a use I was YouTube and googling the wind whacker and they told me, don't waste your battery, just buy it. Trust me.
Well I bought it but I am wondering what's y'all's opinion. Here is the YouTube link. Let me know. I KEPT THE RECEIPT and still bought 2 wind duk. $176 later lol

Theo Walcott says he is happy with his current form but he insists there is plenty more to come from him.
The England international only turned 23 a week ago, but he is already well attuned to the highs and lows of top-flight football - with last month's 5-2 victory over Spurs providing a perfect example.
On that day, he banished memories of a difficult first half by scoring two goals that sealed a famous win for the Gunners.
"In the first half of that game it wasn't quite happening for me, but I was still trying - perhaps too hard, really - and I wasn't hiding," Walcott told the Official Matchday Programme.
"Although we came back to 2-2, part of me wanted the first half to end because of how things had been going for me. You can tell when people aren't happy, and it's not nice. But getting those goals was great for me and for the fans - and hopefully I can show a bit more of that than I have lately.
"I've only just turned 23 and people sometimes forget that - players often aren't breaking into the team until around this age, and I've played a lot of games. There's a lot more to come from me."
His all-round game is certainly developing, as Arsène Wenger acknowledged after the win against Newcastle, stating that Walcott had produced his best performance for Arsenal in terms of mixing attacking and defensive duties. The player agrees.
"That night I think my performance had everything it needed in terms of defensive and positional play," he said. "It's important to remember that as a winger you need to work hard defensively and maintain the right position while getting up and down the pitch.
"I got two assists as well - yes, I'll take the second one! - and everything seemed to work out."
