Originally known as Treasure Mountains Resort, Park City Mountain Resort has been operating since 1963. The last surviving mining company in Park City turned to skiing with help from a federal loan to revive the economically depressed area. The mining company built a gondola, base and summit lodges, chairlifts and a nine-hole golf course.
In 1965 skiers would hop aboard the Skier's Subway, a modified mining trolley that traveled two and a half miles through the pitch black Spiro Tunnel to Thayne's Hoist. Then skiers would board the mine elevator and be lifted 1,750 feet to the surface.

Hello, New People to the Treeleaf Sangha,
Please post a little introduction here. Welcome and make yourself at home!
Gassho, Jundo
Hello, New People to the Treeleaf Sangha,
Please post a little introduction here. Welcome and make yourself at home!
Gassho, Jundo
Hi everyone!
My name is Dave and I am very happy to be joining you all. Many thanks to krid for pointing me in this direction
My first exposure to Buddhism came through the writings of Neil Gunn while I was living in Scotland. For many years afterwards, my dharma practice centered around the Thai forest tradition, which I appreciated for its simplicity and its use of the natural world as a teaching tool for many of our experiences (I'm an environmental educator).
Since moving to Canada a few years ago, I have had much more exposure to Zen and Suzuki's writing in particular, but have had very little opportunity to practice with a community. I am very thankful to have been introduced to this sangha and am looking forward to learning, sitting, and sharing with all of you.
Hi Dave and all the new folks (including those from February ... there are some who joined right at the end of the month and did not get their fair share of "welcomes!") So, Welcome!
Gassho, Jundo
Welcome Dave.
Hi Dave,
Welcome. Jump right in, the water is fine.
Hello Everyone
a liitle about myself:
- 45 year old male, happily married with 2 children
- I work in our local hospital
- I live in the South West of England
- I have been practicing for 5 years or so, sitting most days for 30 minutes in the morning.
- I am a keen runner, reader of fiction & watcher of films
I look forward to being an active member of this community.
Best wishes
Hi Jools, and welcome!
Welcome Jools,
Welcome Dave and Jools! I'm a newbie myself here too!
Hi Dave and Jools.
Welcome to Treeleaf.
-- Janice
Hello to everyone in the Treeleaf Zendo!
I'm Clare and I'm just writing to introduce myself.
I learnt of the treeleaf sangha through my husband Kev who has been registered for a while.
I have been practising zazen for about 2 years and am part of a local group were I live in the UK, that is under the guidance of the Soto Zen Abbey at Throssel Hole in Northumberland. However, things have slipped a little recently as I had a baby in December and as you can imagine, it's been great but hectic. Life is beginning to calm down now and I have decided to join treeleaf zendo as I have been impressed by the ethos of the community and feel it would provide good focus for my practice.
I look forward to getting involved, when I can grab a spare moment!
Hello and welcome Jools and Clare!
Hello and happy Easter to all,
My name is Greg and I'm happy to be joining this unique sangha here at Treeleaf. I have been interested in Buddhism and Taoism for many years, joining the Milwaukee Zen Center in 2004. Sadly, I haven't visited that sangha in over a year but hopefully I shall once again. They're a very knowledgeable and inviting organization.
But, happily, we have this Treeleaf group. I want to thank Jundo, very much, for putting forth the time and effort required for such an endeavor. It is truly an act of kindness and compassion on the part of all who give their time and expertise to this site.
I look forward to contemplating the words and insights of all who enter here. Thanks.
Hi, my name is Alan. I live in deep east Texas where the nearest Buddhist "place" is about an hour drive away (if I hurry, which seems oxymoronic), so I am glad to find this "place" right here at my fingertips. I've been practicing for about 4 years now, but even when I lived where a sangha was close I rarely attended, but now I feel I am ripe enough to attend here. I am lucky enough to have a right profession by being a college professor teaching rehabilitation. Well, technically I am still an instructor until I defend my dissertation in a couple of weeks. This will be a big accomplishment, but I am trying to be equanimous about it and realize it is not-me that is going through the process of no-outcome.
Clare, Alan and Greg --
Hello and welcome!
Hi Alan & Greg, welcome! When you have all of Treeleaf at your fingertips 24/7 there's no excuse not to sit, it's kind of a drag
Welcome Clare, Greg and Alan!
The more the merrier.
Alan, good luck on your dissertation defense.
hiya and welcome Alan, Greg and Clare!
Hello, my name is Alef (or Gaijin if you prefer calling me that) and I'm from Stockholm, Sweden.
I've been interested in Buddhism for several years, but I didn't start practicing zazen (shikantaza) until about two months ago, when I figured out what Zen was all about. Actually, I have no idea why I'm doing it, but somehow something makes me
I haven't had any opportunity to sit with a group or anything yet, there is still to find something appropriate.
Other than that, I enjoy doing whatever, whether it's doing the dishes, listening to music, writing or just sitting.
I look forward to getting involved in this community.
Greg, Alan, Clare and Alef,
Hi Greg, Alan and Alef, and welcome.
Hope you find it a great place to be.
My name is Glenn. I've had an interest in Buddhism for some time. I've read books, visited websites, lurked forums, and finally decided to put all that down and do something about it. So now it's time to sit.
I live two hours from Minneapolis, so sitting with a group isn't easy for me, especially since I have three daughters that I need to help take care of.
I'm looking forward to participating and learning here.
HI Alef and Glenn,
Welcome. It is an exciting place these days. Feel free to leap right in.
Welcome Alef, Glen, Clare & Alan
I am new here myself - the natives seem friendly
Best wishes
I'm Louise and I've just started sitting regularly (I hope) after 'thinking' about it for 25 years (better late than never!) so I'm really pleased to have found this place. I think it is such a good idea to have a virtual community to sit with. It's really helped me get to the cushion and stay there. Thanks!
Hi Louise, Hi Rex, Welcome!!
Thanks for the link Rex, but the only Finnish word I know is "sisu" and it wasn't anywhere in that book. Well that's not true, I know a few other Finnish words, but they shouldn't be posted where children might see them
a big warm welcome to Dave Jools Clare, Alan, Alef the foreigner, Glen, Louise and Sakari-Rex.
Alan, in Texas an hour away is practically next door. :wink: There are a fair number of Lone Star Tree Leaves, myself, ChicanoBuddhista, and Tracy to name a few.
Jools, I already had the pleasure of interacting online via your family post, glad to hear all is well.
Glen, with three daughters, you are already living in the moment.
Look forward to sitting with you all.
Glenn, Louise, and Rex,
Welcome to Treeleaf! I am glad you are here!
Glenn, I have three sons and find it challenging to make it to a zendo for regular sitting. Not only is the Treeleaf community close to your fingertips, you actually communicate more with people than I think you would in weekly sitting in person....
Louise, I too have spent a long time with books and thinking about Buddhism and it has been wonderful to just sit!
Rex, I am interested to learn more about Zen in Finland - I travel to Norway frequently and there are a few active Rinzai and Soto groups in Oslo.
Welcome to everyone who joined during March.
Gassho, Jundo
Hi,Originally Posted by rex54
Just a note to observe that the Helsinki Zen Center appears to be in the "Sambokyodan" lineage, not Soto Zen. As folks know who have heard this mentioned by me many times before, that is only important as Sambokyodan has traditionally been a lineage with an extremely hard focus on "Koan" centered Zen to attain "Kensho" experiences (as described in the book "Three Pillars of Zen"). That is quite different (same but different) from the "Just Sitting" Shikantaza Zazen of traditional Soto. It would mean, for example, that some of the ways of teaching and phrasing the teachings from that lineage would be very different (same but different) from what you might hear from me or another Soto teacher of "Just Sitting".
I do not Rev. Laitinen's background and teachings, however, so I cannot be specific as to his emphasis.We practice zen according to the lineage that was established by the Japanese master, Sogaku Harada Roshi and that was brought to the west by Roshi Philip Kapleau. You find more about zen, our teachers and our lineage at the home pages of Rochester Zen Center and Stockholm Zen Center.

By Chris Toronyi
The words "transfer" and "ambition" are required terms in all Arsenal posts that discuss this summer's activities. So, since I've already included them, I can write freely about... who am I kidding? Of course we must discuss these terms.
They have now become synonymous with each other. One cannot live without the other. Hey, we're all ambitious, we all want to win. It's how the word is used that's confusing me.
Ambition used to be a mindset. A bit of ego, but not in an arrogant way. It was not settling for anything less than someone's best, not leaving anything on the field of play. The drive to succeed and to win. The want to win.
It's something Arsenal try to deliver game by game, season over season. The results may not always directly reflect the thought, but that thought and mindset have never swayed. This is something that I can say without a doubt that we have in our Arsenal DNA. It's the Arsenal way. It's Arsenal's ambition.
But now the word ambition has become a part of the transfer discussion. Some have used transfers to define ambition. I have to admit I don't see it. Are you telling me if we spend more than £30 million or even £40 million we are showing ambition?
To me, I see it as just transfer spending. Improving the squad. It's more like a compliment to the word ambition, as ambition presents itself it other forms as well. What about individual players' will to win?
An individual's personal ambition isn't a transfer fee, but it's a huge asset. Ambition could also include the element of skill improvement by a player. Or maybe the experience they provide to the team as well. What I'm driving at is that I see the word "ambition" as a word closer to meaning value rather than something that has a monetary figure or brand/player name associated with it. Using a fee to describe ambition is easy, but in the end very weak. So many other elements make up the term.
Look, we were able to sign three incredible talents this summer. Cazorla will give us direction in the midfield, Giroud will make us stronger in the box and air, and Poldi gives a great attacking option on the wing or up top. And each provides their own wants and intelligence to the current squad's ambition that will no doubt deliver a better team on the pitch.
Additionally, we have players from last season who have had a solid summer to develop chemistry, build off the success of last season. And we have players returning from injury too. I'm getting giddy just thinking about the line-ups. Exciting times at the Club.
In the end we're Arsenal. We will be forever ambitious. Game by game and every season. It's called Arsenal ambition.

Pac West tops West Seattle for 10-11 title
By Gerardo Bolong
Superb pitching owned the night for Pac West in a 4-2 if-necessary championship game victory at the 2014 Washington District VII Little League 10-11 age All Star tournament held at the Pac West complex in Sea Tac. This completed a comeback through the loser-out bracket.
"We had great pitching," Pac West manager Mitch Stone said. "We were confident all day long."
Following two complete scoreless innings, which included a bases loaded scenario for Pac West in the second inning, the Pac West stars broke through in the third inning. From his leadoff spot, Tyler Gilpatrick legged out an infield single on a hit deep into the shortstop area.
Teammate Ryder Leahy then reached first on a fielder's choice ground out that was misplayed. One out later, Zeek Pastana singled to right field. The throw home sailed over the catcher's head, allowing a run to score.
Pac West kept the pressure on with a fourth inning scoring surge. River Garza opened the frame by singling through the left side. A beautifully laid down bunt in front of home plate by Emma Peterson turned into an infield single as PW posted runners on second and third. An infield error loaded the bases for Gilpatrick to hammer home two runs on his ensuing single to left field.
In the fifth inning, Hunter Hillyard stroked a one-out single for Pac West and later advanced to second base on a wild pitch. Garza laced an RBI single that stretched the lead to 4-0.
West Seattle scored an unearned run in the bottom of the frame to ruin the shutout and raise its hopes. Reese McAllister opened up by drawing a base on balls before running to second base on a wild pitch. Two strikeouts later, an infield fielding error allowed WS to tally a run.
Left hander Garza pitched a gem of a game for Pac West, allowing only the unearned run on one hit while carving out the West Siders to the tune of 12 strikeouts through five full innings before being forced to retire from the mound after throwing 87 pitches.
"I used fastballs and remembered to follow through completely on my pitching motion," he said.
West Seattle took advantage of the Pac West relief pitcher's control problems and some fielding issues to force some late drama in the bottom of the sixth inning. Gabe Palmer singled and moved up one base on an outfield error. Peter Nelson walked before JP Dufour loaded the bases on a fielder's choice ground out that was misplayed. McAllister worked the count to 2-0 and right hander Michael Snyder was summoned to put the fire out. After McAllister walked to make the score 4-2, Snyder reached back and earned a swinging strikeout before catching the next two batters looking at third strikes to hold the fort for the precious save that sent Pac West into the state tournament for a 9 a.m. game on Sat., July 19, at Stan Hedwall Park in Chehalis.
Despite furiously battling in the championship round, West Seattle was unable to summon up enough fire power against solid Pac West mound mastery.
"I was thankful that I could throw strikes," Snyder said. "I didn't want to let the team down. It was my four-seam fastball that I used."
Players for Pac West include Brandon Corner, River Garza, Tyler Gilpatrick, Alex Lucero, Jaden Macias, Zeke Pastana, Michael Snyder, Max Volle, Alex Whitman, Jacob Sagmoen, Hunter Hillyard, Ryder Leahy and Emma Peterson.
Manager Mitch Stone is assisted by coaches Jon Moormeier and Sam Whitman. Stone also serves as league president. Tournament director was Shawna Williams.

Which Scope???
I've lived in the city for the last 13 years, and during that time I've only shot my bow enough to keep my skills up good enough to bow hunt. I finally relocated back to the country and now I can shoot in my back yard
I'm trying to decide on which scope to get. I've got a Tropy Ridge sight that I hunt with, but I would like to switch back to a scope for target shooting and possibly 3D shoots. I've got an old 2x scope that I used 10+ years ago, but it's not very clear at all, and I would like a 4X. I would like something that gives me a good clear view of the target. I looked at the Sure Lock page, and there's no way I can justify $200+ for just the lens. For that price, I'll put the bow back on the shelf, and continue practicing with my 45 and my AR. Are there any reasonably priced 4x scopes out there that aren't blurry? For the lens and houseing I'd like to spend around $100 or less. If I had to, I could probably fabricate the housing on a lathe, but I'd rather buy it and save the effort.
Not sure about good priced scopes
I have an 8 year old Bullseye 2X scope. I like to shoot with hunting pins more so I have not checked into any scopes. But you may check the classifieds on here. I you can not find anything there post WTB and see what happens maybe someone on here has one they would like to sell and then upgrade their own scope. Whatever you decide I hope you find what you want. Good luck.
Think you are out of luck, even the HHA lens kit is $75 and thats after the initial 100-120 sight purchace. Just remember its only money and they will always make more.I cut things up and split them down!

affordable scope
I just purchased a Viper Archery scope with a 3x lens and fiber optic up-pin for 115$. They also offer a drilled through lens with fiber optic pin. They offer lens magnifications up to 8x as well. For the money, you can't beat it. for about 130$ you get the scope, lens, sun shade and lens cover. It's a pretty good deal. You can check it out on the web at: www.obsessionarchery.com

Thanks for the feedback folks! I'd like to clarify a little bit more. I plan on purchasing a Toxonics sight to mount the scope to, but I'm not locked into the Toxonics. I'm just figuring another $100 or so ontop of the scope price for the sights. Obviously I'd be glad to spend less, but that's pretty much how my budget is set up.
My main goal is to have a scope that is clear. The old one that I have now is only 2x and it's always been VERY blurry. How clear are the HHA lenses and the Viper lenses?
Anyone tried the Trophy Ridge lens kit? That would fit my existing sight, but I would rather go to a smaller sight. I have 80 yards in my back yard, and with my Trophy Ridge, I start hitting the sight with the vanes at around 50 yards.
I'll post on the classifieds section also.
Thanks for all the advice! More is always welcome.

Geneen Roth
Geneen Roth's pioneering books were among the first to link compulsive eating and perpetual dieting with deeply personal and spiritual issues that go far beyond food, weight, and body image. Roth believes that we eat the way we live, and that our relationship to food, money, and love is an exact reflection of our deepest held beliefs about ourselves, and the amount of joy, abundance, pain, and scarcity we believe we have (or are allowed) to have in our lives.
For more than 30 years, Roth has taught hundreds of thousands of people meditation, inquiry, and a set of seven eating guidelines that are the foundation of natural eating. Roth helps people see that their actions and beliefs make exquisite sense, and that the way to transform their relationship with food is to be open, curious, and kind with themselves, instead of punishing, impatient, and harsh.
Geneen Roth is the author of nine books, including the New York Times best-sellers When Food is Love and Women Food and God. She has appeared on many national television shows, including the Oprah Winfrey Show, 20/20, NBC Nightly News, the View, and Good Morning America, and her work has been featured in numerous publications, including O: The Oprah Magazine, Cosmopolitan, Time, Elle, the New York Times, the Chicago Tribune, and the Philadelphia Inquirer.

T-Systems hosted its 2012 analyst and sourcing advisor event recently. To be sure, T-Systems remains one of the most advanced true ICT providers in the European market. But T-Systems ought to demonstrate more clearly how it can support and enhance business process for its customers and improve the customer experience for its customers' customers. Of course T-Systems is not alone. The ICT industry needs to emphasize proven capabilities in delivering enterprise-grade ICT solutions ranging from co-management of infrastructure resources to full outsourcing.
T-Systems, like many of its competitors, is busy making sure that it does not bleed too much in what T-Systems calls the red ocean, i.e., the highly competitive market segment of legacy services. That's a good start. At the event, T-Systems communicated very clearly the progress at its internal production factory. This aspect is critical for streamlining and standardizing the portfolio, boosting margins, and developing products and services that the revamped sales team then can actually sell. One tangible outcome of this effort shows through in the high customer satisfaction level and deal wins like BAT, OMG, and Georg Fischer. Importantly, T-Systems also has put in place a rigorous certification framework for ensuring quality of service with suppliers.
However, T-Systems still needs to convince in areas of the blue ocean, i.e., the emerging innovative market segment. Like many of its competitors, T-Systems is not finding this easy. Why? Because T-Systems continues to prop up its legacy business: selling technology solutions.

CNN's Johns, NPR's Rudin flatly declare Dem candidate's ad on Foley scandal to be false
CNN's Joe Johns and National Public Radio's Ken Rudin declared that portions of a political ad by Minnesota Democratic congressional candidate Patty Wetterling, claiming that "[c]ongressional leaders have admitted covering up the predatory behavior of a congressman who used the Internet to molest children," were false. But neither Rudin nor Johns noted that admitted actions by members of the House Republican leadership arguably had the result of a "cover-up."
While discussing Minnesota Democratic congressional candidate Patty Wetterling's recent campaign advertisement criticizing the Republican leadership's response to allegations that Rep. Mark Foley (R-FL) engaged in sexually graphic exchanges with underage congressional pages, CNN congressional correspondent Joe Johns and National Public Radio (NPR) political editor Ken Rudin simply declared that portions of the ad were false. The advertisement states that "[c]ongressional leaders have admitted covering up the predatory behavior of a congressman who used the Internet to molest children." On the October 6 edition [1] of NPR's Morning Edition, Rudin asserted that the Republicans have "absolutely not" admitted "to a cover-up ... of course, that's not the case." Likewise, in a segment that aired on both the October 4 edition [2] of CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 and the October 5 edition [3] of CNN's American Morning, Johns stated that there has been no "admission of a cover-up." Yet, neither Rudin nor Johns noted that members of the House Republican leadership have admitted to knowing about the emails as early as late 2005; to informing only the Republican chair of the House Page Board and the then-Clerk of the House of the allegations; to not calling for an investigation into the matter by the House or the FBI; and to not informing any Democrats about the emails. While some Republicans have denied [4] a "cover-up," their admitted actions arguably had that result.
Additionally, Johns asserted that Wetterling's advertisement contained "[u]nproven allegations" because "no evidence made public so far suggests a molestation charge." In fact, the Wetterling ad did not say that Foley has been "charge[d]" with a violation of laws prohibiting molestation or that he will be. The ad says only that he "used the Internet to molest children." Merriam-Webster's online dictionary defines [5] "molest" as "to make annoying sexual advances to," and Foley's alleged instant message conversations with teenage former pages indeed contained "sexual advances."
In flatly declaring false Wetterling's advertisement's claim that "[c]ongressional leaders have admitted covering up" Foley's alleged actions, both Rudin and Johns ignore statements by congressional leaders acknowledging their own actions:
- Fall 2005: According to House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert's (R-IL) September 30 statement [6] on the matter, the chief of staff for Rep. Rodney Alexander (R-LA), the congressional sponsor of the underage page, placed a "a telephone call" to Hastert's staff assistant Tim Kennedy and "expressed that he and Congressman Alexander were concerned about" an email exchange allegedly between Foley and the page. Hastert's deputy chief of staff Mike Stokke "called the Clerk and asked him to come to the Speaker's Office so that he could put him together with Congressman Alexander's Chief of Staff. The Clerk and Congressman Alexander's Chief of Staff then went to the Clerk's Office to discuss the matter." According to Hastert, "[t]he Clerk then contacted Congressman [John] Shimkus [R-IL], the Chairman of the Page Board to request an immediate meeting," but the clerk did not inform the full House Page Board.
- Late 2005: Shimkus stated [7]: "[I]n late 2005, I was notified...about an email exchange between Congressman Foley and a former House Page. I took immediate action to investigate the matter." Shimkus asserted that he approached Foley about the matter and "ordered Congressman Foley to cease all contact with this former House Page." Shimkus did not inform the other two members of the board, Rep. Dale Kildee (D-MI) and Rep. Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), of the incident. Shimkus defended his decision to not inform other Page Board members, stating, "I'm the chairman of the page board. ... The Clerk and I addressed this issue."
- Spring 2006: Both National Republican Congressional Committee chairman Tom Reynolds (R-NY) and House Majority Leader John A. Boehner (R-OH) were informed of the alleged email exchanges. Reynolds claimed [8] that "Alexander brought to my attention the existence of emails between Mark Foley and a former page," and subsequently, Reynolds "told the Speaker [Hastert] of the conversation Mr. Alexander had with me." Boehner initially claimed [9], upon learning of the incident, that "I talked to the speaker and he told me it had been taken care of. ... My position is it's in his corner, it's his responsibility." Boehner has since made conflicting statements as to whether he informed Hastert, as Media Matters for America has noted [10].
At no point has any Republican leader indicated that he informed a single Democratic member of Congress or law enforcement official about the situation involving Foley's alleged communications with an underage page. Indeed, an October 2 Washington Post article [11] by staff writers Charles Babington and Jonathan Weisman quoted an anonymous aide in the Republican leadership saying that the GOP had "erred in not notifying the three-member, bipartisan panel that oversees the page system" after Hastert reportedly learned of the email communications in late 2005.
From the October 4 edition of CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 (the segment also aired on the October 5 edition of American Morning):
JOHNS: For the Democrats, right now, some say the danger is the campaign ads. Democrat Patty Wetterling is running for the House in Minnesota.
NARRATOR [video clip]: It shocks the conscience. Congressional leaders have admitted covering up the predatory behavior of a congressman who used the Internet to molest children.
JOHNS: Unproven allegations; no evidence made public so far suggests a molestation charge. Nor has there been any admission of a cover-up. And even some Democratic strategists warn that if the party is seen to be politicizing something this serious, it could backfire.
From the October 6 edition [1] of NPR's All Things Considered:
RUDIN: I mean, Patty Wetterling is an interesting case. Sixteen years ago, her 11-year-old son was abducted and has still not and never been found -- and that issue is certainly resonating. The issue of sexual predators and preying on young children plays in that Minnesota district. It's almost like -- it's almost like the Republicans wish that we could talk about Iraq again.
STEVE INSKEEP (host): Can -- can we truth-squad that ad very briefly? Have Republican leaders admitted covering up?
RUDIN: No, absolutely not, and as a matter a fact, the Democrats all around -- a lot of Democrats around the country are saying that the Republicans are part of this cover-up, admitting to a cover-up, but, of course, that's not the case.
INSKEEP: You know, for both of you, Lanny -- Lanny Davis, former adviser to President Clinton, has said a number of things about this. One of them is, the Democrats can go too far. They could blow this political opportunity by trying to exploit it too nakedly. What do you think?
MARA LIASSON (NPR national political correspondent): Well, sure, that's the -- that's the case with any kind of negative or attack ad that you're going to run, but don't forget, the Democrats aren't running a national campaign around the Foley scandal. These are happening in specific districts, each -- each member is going to -- each challenger is going to make the decision on what kind of ads to run. But don't forget, we are in the final stretch here. These attack ads are running fast and furious from both sides, and there's not a whole time for people -- a whole lot of time for people to step -- step back and parse every one of them.

Lawrence Wilkerson, a Republican who served as chief of staff for then Secretary of State Colin Powell, admitted that many men presently in Guantanamo are innocent and the only crime they ever committed was to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. In his discussions with military officials, they admitted they knew some of the men were innocent, but they had a plan. "It did not matter if the detainee was innocent. Indeed, because he lived in Afghanistan and was captured on or near the battle area, he must know something of importance"was the assumption of men raised in the United States of America which has a Constitution based on innocence until proven guilty!! Wilkerson, says "US leadership became aware of this lack of proper vetting very early on and thus, of the reality that many of the detainees were innocent of any substantial wrongdoing, had little intelligence value, and should be immediately released.
Wilkerson claims Vice President Dick Cheney and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld know of this but refused to do anything because it would damage the Republican presidency. Wilkerson says at present we can not try those who are guilty because they were tortured and the evidence will not stand up in a court of law.

At Indiana Dev 29 7PM tv: WDIV 2nd game of the set being played in Indiana.
A home and home against a division rival. It will be difficult to take both these games, however, the Pistons could win them both. I look for a split, each team winning at home.
Tend to agree with you on this esp we do not play well on Saturdays. Hope we are wrong and keep the winning streak in tact.
jz, I took a quick look at the schedule--oddly enough, the Pistons have played only one game on a Saturday so far this season. They won by 16 in Milwaukee back on Dec. 1st.
What bout last season?
I just hope that Flip continues with strategy of giving bench minutes and keeping starters off the floor as he has done as of late.
I think Flipper likes his job so I am not too worried about him having an attack of recidivism. recidivism: Definition, Synonyms and Much More from Answers.com
I think indiana will respond better in the second game. Let us see what game adjustments would Flip make (especially during the game), to counter respond. the second quarter of the first game was a explosion of Javis who had been sloppy for a while, let us see if he would have another good game as well. Still see a win, but the question is: is it going to be another blow out? Go Pistons
We are favored again tonight but not by near as much as the Belacheats are.
Plate of the Day Food Blog - The Burger Joint - Sliders Food Reviews Info HOOPSWORLD | NBA News, Rumors and Information
Chat is open! http://www.pistonsforum.com/misc.php?do=flashchat I'll be a little late, have some stuff to take care of first.
A lot tighter first half this time around. Indy keeps scoring in the 2nd quarter.
I don't think Flipper knows how to defend his own play book.
Pistons had an unusual thing of late, a close game...they closed it out 98-92 over the Pacers after being up only 1 with about 2 minutes left. Some good clutch D, CB going to the hole for a big layup, and Rip hitting a clutch 3 were enough to overcome a desperation Indy 3 and a bad Pistons turnover in the final minute. Rip and CB led the way with 24 and 17 points. Dice and Sheed threw up a lot of bricks, but they played good D down the stretch on Jermaine. JMax had a big 12 points, Jarvis stayed hot with 9 points and actually outrebounded Tay (Hayes had 6 boards in 17 minutes), and Stuckey made a big impact in the 2nd half in particular, leading a big run near the end of the 3rd quarter to give the Pistons a 6 point lead going into the 4th. AA got lost in the shuffle with only 4 minutes in the first half...it probably would have been better to get him back in there for Rip near the end of the first half. Rip had a great game but played almost 39 minutes. But the good sign of Stuckey's impact on the rotation is that in a game that was close all the way, CB played only 34.5 minutes.
Saunders has the Pistons playing as good as any team in the league right now.
8 in a row for the boys from motown. A close one all the way until the Pistons defense stepped up and the Pacers missed about 7 buckets in a row down the stretch. 28 points from the bench as Flip went to an 8.25 man rotation with Alf getting 4 mins and Max, Hayes and Stuckey getting 16 mins plus. Difference in the points were at the ft line where the Pistons shot 28-34 to the Pacers 21-26. The rest of the shooting stats were almost even. This was the type of game that we were losing to Cavs last post season. Good win as Pistons continue their dominance over the eastern conference and the Pacers fall 2 games back in two quick days.
I know we won, but this game was awful. Flip's rotations were way off. We got killed by quicker players that Afflalo was handling but inexpicably got taken out, and never put back in. I get the whole wanting to have Stuckey out there with a vet which was fine even though Rip is not exactly the 2nd ball handler you should be going to, but then when Billups came back in, Rip stayed in. Indiana made adjustments. Yes, they gave a better effort, but they did alot of things we had no answer for. And the 4th quarter play-calling wasn't good. Shades of the ECF of the last 2 years. I'm probably being harsh, but the only other game i can recall this season in a tight 4th quarter was BOS, and we almost choked that one away. Flip still has yet to prove he can coach in a tight game.
What? How did you get there. O"Brien has Flipper's play book. How many points did we give up against the Pacers (over 96.5 game) in two games vs all the other teams (in the low 80s) during our win streak? So I repeat myself: Indy averages about 15 points more a game against us than the other teams that we have beaten during the winning streak, therefore, I maintain that Flipper doesn't know how to defend his own play book which O'Brien at Indy is using.
Flip hasn't had that much practice this year in close ones as they are beating their opponents handily, but he is 2-1 in games decided by 3 points or less.
I think that tonight is a game that AJ could have played. Dyess should not be getting 37 plus minutes in the second game of a back to back. So AJ should have played 5 - 7 minutes tonight. This however, is not putting him in the regular rotation but only using him in special situations, besides garbage time.

Section Navigation
Noise Glossary
Massport's Primer on noise monitoring terms and their common abbreviations
Abatement: The method of reducing the degree of intensity of noise and the use of such a method.
Air Carriers: Airlines holding a certificate of public convenience and necessity that operate aircraft designed to have a maximum seating capacity of more than 60 seats or a maximum payload capacity of more than 18,000 pounds or conduct international operations. There are four different types of air carriers: majors, nationals, medium regionals and large regionals.
Air Taxi: Non-scheduled passenger aircraft with 50 or fewer seats.
ANMS: The Airport Noise Monitoring System (ANMS) is a sophisticated, acoustical system which monitors noise impacts by time of day, season and on an annual basis. ANMS also monitors noise levels generated by a variety of outside aircraft activities and obtains accurate data of aircraft flight tracks and fleet mix. Massport's NMS (Noise Monitoring System) uses ENOMS (Environmental Noise and Operations System) to collect and process the same information in a similar manner as ANMS. The NMS has 29 locations in the Logan area and 6 locations at Hanscom.
dB: The Decibel (dB) is the unit used to measure the magnitude or intensity of sound. Decibel means 1/10 of Bel (named after Alexander Graham Bell). The decibel uses a logarithmic scale to cover the very large range of sound pressures that can be heard by the human ear. Under the decibel unit of measure, a 10 dB increase will be perceived by most people to be a doubling in loudness, i.e., 80 dB seems twice as loud as 70 dB.
dBA: The A-weighted Decibel (dBA) is the most common unit used for measuring environmental sound levels. It adjusts, or weights, the frequency components of sound to conform with the normal response of the human ear at conversational levels. dBA is an international metric that is used for assessing environmental noise exposure of all noise sources.
dBC: The C-weighted Decibel (dBC) is the method of measuring sound which takes into account the low frequency components of noise sources, such as aircraft operations, and reflects their contribution to the environment.
Commuter Aircraft: Scheduled passenger aircraft with fewer than 50 seats.
Commercial Aviation: The sum total of air carrier and air taxi flights.
EPNdB: The Effective Perceived Noise Level (EPNdB) is another unit of measure for aircraft noise. It is based on how people judge the annoyance of sounds they hear with corrections for the duration of the event and for pure tones. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) uses EPNdB in the certification of large transport planes for Federal Noise Regulations (FAR Part 36).
General Aviation: Non-commercial airline aviation - primarily business aircraft and individuals traveling in private aircraft, including those making connections to commercial flights.
Hertz (Hz): The Hertz is a unit of measurement of frequency, numerically equal to cycles per second of the measure of the rate of the vibration of the sound. High frequencies can be thought of as having a high pitch; like a whistle; low frequency sounds are more like a rumble of a truck or airplane.
Huskkitted Aircraft: Hushkitted Stage III aircraft are previously Stage II aircraft that have been adapted to meet Stage III requirements.
IFR: Instrument Flight Rules govern flight procedures during limited visibility or other operational constraints. Under IFR, pilots must file a flight plan and fly under the guidance of radar.
Intensity: The sound energy flow through a unit area in a unit time.
ILS: An Instrument Landing System (ILS) is a precise landing aid consisting of several components giving the pilot vertical and horizontal electronic guidance. Elements usually include: 1. an outer marker, a radio beam 4 to 6 miles from the touchdown point where the electronic signal begins; 2. an approach lighting system at the runway end; 3. a localizer radio beam which provides the horizontal guide; and 4. a glide slope which provides vertical guidance on the angle of descent for landing.
INM: The Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA), Office of Environment and Energy (AEE-100) has developed the Integrated Noise Model (INM) for evaluating aircraft noise impacts in the vicinity of airports. The INM has been the FAA's standard tool since 1978 for determining the predicted noise impact in the vicinity of airports. The FAA requires airports use the INM in assessing environmental impacts for soundproofing, evaluating physical improvements to the airfield, analyzing changes to existing or new procedures and in assessing land use compatibility.
The INM Model utilizes flight track information, aircraft fleet mix, standard and user defined aircraft profiles and terrain as inputs. The INM model produces noise exposure contours that are used for land use compatibility maps. The INM program includes built in tools for comparing contours and utilities that facilitate easy export to commercial Geographic Information Systems. The model also calculates predicted noise at specific sites such as hospitals, schools or other sensitive locations.
The INM model used by Massport for Logan Airport has been updated to reflect local topographical conditions such as water and hills.
Ldn: The Day-night Average Sound Level (Ldn) is the level of noise expressed (in decibels) as a 24-hour average. Nighttime noise, between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. is weighted; that is, given an additional 10 decibels to compensate for sleep interference and other disruptions caused by nighttime noise. An annual average of DNLs is used by the Federal Aviation Administration to describe airport noise exposure. Areas with noise impacts less than 65 dB DNL are considered "compatible" with residential use; areas at or above 65 dB DNL are designated "incompatible" with residential use.
Ldn is used by all Federal agencies (EPA, HUD, DOE, DOD, etc.) and internationally in the assessment of potential noise impacts. It is used interchangeably with DNL.
Lmax: The Maximum Instantaneous Noise Level (Lmax) is the maximum level of noise measured during a given measurement period.
Logan Noise Rules: The principal aim of Logan's noise rules is to keep cumulative noise at or below the 1986 level, regardless of fluctuations in the number of passengers and operations. The rules entirely eliminated the oldest and noisiest Stage I aircraft in 1988, and of Stage II aircraft in 2000. Noise rules limit the time period (Midnight to 7 AM) during which engine maintenance "run-ups" can occur. Airlines have the option of complying with two standards: either a Stage III percentage or a Noise Per Seat Index (NPSI). These standards are determined by Massport each July for the upcoming year.
Noise: 1. Unwanted sound. 2. Any sound not occurring in the natural environment, such as sounds emanating from aircraft, highways, industrial, commercial and residential sources. 3. An erratic, intermittent, or statistically random oscillation.
Noise Abatement: A procedure or technique used by aircraft at an airport to minimize the impact of noise on the communities surrounding an airport.
Noise Level: For airborne sound , unless specified to the contrary, it is the A-weighted sound level.
Noise-sensitive Receptor: A location where noise can interrupt on-going activities which can result in community annoyance, especially in residential areas. Examples of noise-sensitive receptors include schools, libraries, hospitals, residences, retirement communities and nursing homes.
Noise Study: Investigation of existing noise conditions, flight patterns and land use surrounding an airport
Noise Event: A Noise Event is the measured sound produced by a single source of noise over a particular period of time. An aircraft noise event begins when the sound level of an overflight exceeds a noise threshold and ends when the level drops down below that threshold.
Noise Contour: A Noise Contour is a line on a map that represents equal levels of noise exposure. Massport uses the FAA computer model, the Integrated Noise Model, to calculate noise contours in intervals of 5 DBA from 65 to 80 Ldn.
Noise Models: "Noise models" are computer models used to predict the impacts of aircraft noise over a geographic area. Such models are used to develop the noise exposure contours and noise exposure maps submitted to the Federal Aviation Administration and other government agencies (state and local). The Integrated Noise Model (INM) is the most commonly applied aviation noise model. Massport uses INM adjusted for Logan-specific topography.
NPSI: The Noise Per Seat Index (NPSI) is an index value used in the Massport Noise Rules to represent total noise emissions per seat for commercial turbojet aircraft operations at Logan. It is based on the total EPNdB for takeoff and landing, as certified by the FAA, divided by (on an energy basis) the number of seats in the aircraft.
NR: The Noise Reduction (NR) between two areas is the numerical difference, in dBA, of the average sound levels in those areas. NR is a measure of the complete construction (including all of the elements, such as window and wall).
NRC: The Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) is the measure of the acoustical absorption performance of a material, calculated by averaging its sound absorption coefficients at 250, 500, 1000 and 2000 Hz, expressed to the nearest multiple of 0.05. NRC is used in calculating soundproofing benefits.
Peak Level (in DB): The Peak Level is the highest level of sound pressure measured during a noise event.
PRAS: Preferential Runway Advisory System (PRAS) is a computer program that recommends to the FAA air traffic controllers runway configuration options that both will meet weather and demand requirements and will provide an equitable distribution of the airport's noise impacts on surrounding airports. Its primary objectives are to distribute the noise in accordance with (annual) runway utilization goals and to provide short-term relief from continuous operations over the same neighborhoods located at the ends of runways.
Preferential Runway Use: Taking off or landing on specified runways during certain hours to avoid residential areas.
ROI: The Region of Influence (ROI) for noise impacts includes areas near Logan International Airport and its operations. This includes surrounding communities, the inner harbor and the routes that would be used by trucks hauling cargo.
RMS: Remote noise monitoring sites (locations).
Run-ups: An aircraft maintenance procedure; a "revving" of the engine.
SEL: The Sound Exposure Level (in dB) is computed by converting the total noise energy measured during a noise event to an equivalent dBA level for a single event that would only be one second in duration. The SEL accounts for both the magnitude and the duration of the noise event; noise analysts use SEL to calculate the day-night average noise level.
Stage 2 and Stage 3 Aircraft: Commercial jet engines currently meet either Stage 2 or Stage 3 noise standards. Stage 2 engines are older and noisier than Stage 3 engines. Stage 3 aircraft incorporate the latest technology for suppressing jet-engine noise and, in general, are 10 dB quieter than Stage 2 aircraft. This represents a halving of perceived noise; however, actual noise reduction varies by aircraft. All aircraft greater than 75,000 lbs had to meet Stage 3 noise standards as of January 1, 2000. Aircraft less than 75,000 lbs that are Stage 2 aircraft are not allowed to arrive or depart from Logan between the 11:00 pm and 7:00 am.
Time Above: The Time Above is a measure identifying the number of minutes in a day which exceed a certain noise level. For example, a location may experience 10 minutes a day when the noise level exceeds 65 dBA.
VFR: Visual Flight Rules (VFR) are air traffic rules allowing pilots to land by sight without relying solely on instruments. VFR conditions require good weather and visibility.

I found some public land that I am going to hunt this season for wood duck and mallard but the area surrounding the ponds on this public land consist of relatively short grass that will provide no form of cover. Permanent blinds are not allowed so I will have to pack one in and out each day if I bring a blind in, which isn't a problem.
Is the best way to hunt these ponds by setting a blind on the bank of the water or should I be doing something else? If a blind on the bank is the best choice are there any companies who make portable duck blinds?

Hi! :)
I'm a 26 year old girl from Norway, currently building an ANH Stormtrooper (AP). When I'm finished and approved (only a few days away now), I'd like to start building a Boba Fett. I know it's rather expensive, so I'll build it piece by piece and enjoy the process while trooping in my shiny white armour.
I've been reading a little bit, and can't wait to get to know you all better!
Best regards,

I've been interested in getting my motorcycle licence for some time and have finally decided to do something about it. I've started the learning process. In the meantime I've spent some time reading here and learned a lot of beginner tips. I'm not here to show off or even have the desire to race. I just want something to go for a ride on a nice day or even take on a road trip. After taking the advice of many I started looking at older bikes as starters. I came to realize I actually prefer the vintage style and that's what I've been looking for. Well I finalized the deal this morning and picked up my new toy. 1971 Honda CB500 Four and it's in pretty rough shape. All the necessary stuff is there and other than a couple dents in the tank this thing is pretty solid. It just looks like hell. I will have to go over every single piece of the bike but that's ok. I've made road worthy a car I bought out of a ditch before. This should be ok. I have no plans on modding other than paint scheme and no restoration plans are in the immediate future either. I want to make it presentable and driveable for the spring and that's it for now.
Enough talk, here some pics.
When I went to go look at it earlier this week.
Gotta love the old Canadian speedo in only miles.
Here we are picking it up this morning. Big thanks to my roommate pictured.
First thing I did when I got home was remove that ugly ass cowel in the front.
And me and my ugly mug taking a seat for fun.
I've been doing some searching and found this photo. I see that the rear has been lowered and the wheel is much smaller. I love the look of this one compared to the stock one under it. Can anyone give me any info on what was done to that bike?
And here I am taking my first lesson last week on my roommate's dual sport.
So, can anyone point me in the direction of a helpful specific forum or a source for new and/or used parts?
Anyone with mod ideas feel free to chime in. I like to see what ideas are out there for the hell of it.
Thanks for looking.

Post some pictures for us to see.
And give us a range report when you can.
Well I just picked up my P22 on Thursday. Hopefully headed to the range sometime this week. I picked up a 550 box of federals and a few of the 50 round boxes of thunderbolts at Wally World. It's all they had so hopefully the gun shoots ok, I've heard they can be very picky what you feed them.
Also are ther any tricks to fielding stripping the gun? Well more so placing the recoil spring back in place during reassembly? What a chore! I can field strip and reassemble my 24/7 or XD9 in a matter of seconds, but this thing was a pain in the ass! Vey stupid design IMO.
Post some pictures for us to see.
And give us a range report when you can.
I just picked up one this past Wed. I just haven't had time to strip and clean it. Hopefully I'll get to shoot sometime this week.
Jim, you are soooo right...the spring is a pain in the arse on reassembly. I hate breaking it down compared to my HK just because it is so difficult to set the spring. I've found it requires one hand to pull back the spring and then placing the rod thru the guide hole works best...but then how do you pull out your hand from the spring to work the slide?!? I'm open to someone sharing the magic of reassembly because I have not found it yet.
I've been experiencing a lot of problems feeding and ejecting most ammo. I had failure on nearly half the rounds of the Winchester you bought (sorry). I've tried Federal Spitfire (fail), Aguila (fail), but have had success with CCI Mini Mag and Stinger, but I can't find CCI anywhere. This week I shot Remington Golden Bullet and they worked fine. I picked up a 525 box and hope I don't have failure going forward. I placed a call to S&W and they suggested CCI Mini Mag, but, again, I can't find CCI anywhere in town.
Good luck...not everyone has had the problems I have had, but what a pain. Between the reassembly and the failures I have not grown attached to this gun...but I will say when it fires properly it is a fun little pistol. I hope the Golden Bullet solves my failure problems. I'm disappointed...I did not expect this gun to be so finicky...then again, I didn't do alot of research on the forums b/c I was guided by a friend who had one. If I had done my research I'd have been more informed prior to making the purchase.
Thanks Bruce!
He makes it look so easy...when I back the slide for reassembly the spring bends such that it does not guide easily onto the rod...almost like the spring is too long. I'm sure with more practice the process will become easier.

Man accused of faking home invasion in central Fla
Published: Friday, May 17, 2013 at 9:39 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, May 17, 2013 at 9:39 a.m.
DELTONA — A central Florida man is in jail after deputies say he wore a disguise while slashing his wife's face, then made up a story about a home invasion to cover up his actions.
But Volusia County Sheriff's investigators say 29-year-old Timorthy Hunter confessed after they confronted him with inconsistencies in his story. He remained in the Volusia County Jail without bond on Friday.
The Daytona Beach News-Journal (http://bit.ly/15StmpM ) reports deputies found Kristin Sottosanti with multiple cuts on her face after she called 911 Wednesday night. She told them a masked man had come into her house and slashed her face.
During the call, Hunter was heard coming into the house and expressing surprise at his wife's injuries.
Hunter is charged with aggravated battery and tampering with evidence.

Michael Sandel:
Why we shouldn't trust markets with our civic life
In the past three decades, says Michael Sandel, the US has drifted from a market economy to a market society; it's fair to say that an American's experience of shared civic life depends on how much money they have. (Three key examples: access to education, access to justice, political influence.) In a talk and audience discussion, Sandel asks us to think honestly on this question: In our current democracy, is too much for sale?

God Bless (I've just offended people who don't beleve in God :roll:)
don't you have to be over 60 to know what woodstock was ?
With all due respect (and I did say with all due respect),that was one crazy, rambling, poorly spelled, disjointed post Beemaster. Just a little free advice, don't hit the crack pipe before you log on to the puter'. God Bless (I've just offended people who don't beleve in God :roll:)
Hey Captain are you ever going to tell us your location? ...JP
Actually I'm a woman. That might explain why "I'm too in touch with my feminine side" (an incredibly offensive, sexist comment that I suppose is the fault of the lymes disease) . With a masters degree in psychology I'm very familiar with the concept of conforming to the group. It makes people feel safe,accepted,like they belong, unfortunately it doesn't foster growth. Your site needs an "unregister" option God Bless To respond to your ever growing post, it's my opinion that the reason you didn't ban me was because you wouldn't have had an excuse to contribute all that nonsense. I was going to quote your more colorful insults, but I see that they have been removed. I realize that speaking to someone in that manner probably is an attempt on your part to feel "whole". I'll pray for your soul.
yet your posts contain the most vulgar,base and disgusting comments
and as a woman I can't help but to be feminine.

It definitely appears the Reds took one of their biggest strengths and made it a glaring weakness. This offense is simply brutal to watch right now, which makes the big trade look more and more questionable. There are simply too many outs in the lineup as it stands currently
The Reds need to add some type of dynamic offensive player via trade or free agency in the offseason. Who would have ever thought that with all of the pitching questions the Reds have had over the past several seasons?

Oops, our bad (cont'd).
Sage Wisdom. Daily Brickbats (2011-06-17):
A Broward County, Florida, sheriff's deputy spotted Robin Brown when she was bird watching one day. He thought that the sage she had with her was marijuana, and a field test seemed to confirm that. He didn't arrest her then, but confiscated the sage and sent it to the crime...
Want to guess how much compensation she might be able to get from police and state prosecutors to make up for the harassment, arrest, abduction, sexual assault, torture, and confinement that they inflicted on her, a completely innocent bird-watcher, based on nothing more than belligerent ignorance, a fraudulent "field kit," and pure, callous negligence?
Ha, ha, it's a trick question. Even if she does win her lawsuit (which will be hard; the system overwhelmingly favors immunity for government violence), the police and prosecutors will never pay anything for the damages she's awarded. Government police and state prosecutors never pay for what they do to innocent people; you pay for their crimes instead, when they send the tax bill on to you.

text: Hi, I'm new to this, so just following the rule to post something within two weeks of registering. I have been keeping bees for about 4 years now. However, I've only had two successful years of harvesting honey. I live in the south and it gets dry here so a lot of the time there's not much bloom except for the farmers crops and I don't know if that's really good for the bees as so many of the crops have pest resistant seeds now. Anyway, it seems as though I constantly have to feed my bees and I have lost my hives a couple of times to pests, and have come to the conclusion that if I lose them again, I'm giving up since they are quite expensive to replace. Look forward to information from this board, maybe it'll give me new insight and help to know what I might be doing wrong. Thanks!

Five players are currently away from Arsenal on loan.
Defender Kerrea Gilbert will spend the entire season at Cardiff
while Fabrice Muamba and Nicklas Bendtner do likewise at
Birmingham. Elsewhere, Arturo Lupoli will spend the rest of
the campaign at Derby while Joe O'Cearuill is with League One
side Brighton and Hove Albion.
Keep up-to-date with the fortunes of all our loan stars in our regular Loan Watch...
Nicklas Bendtner, Fabrice Muamba
Hull City 2-0 Birmingham City, February 24
Nicklas Bendtner played the entire second half as Birmingham slipped to defeat at Hull. The hosts took the lead 10 minutes in when former Arsenal midfielder Ray Parlour crossed for Dean Windass to sweep home. The Blues then had defender Radhi Jaidi dismissed for bringing down Stuart Elliot and had to play nearly an hour with 10 men. Journeyman striker Windass completed the scoring from the spot on 57 minutes after Nicky Forster was fouled by Martin Taylor. Arsenal's other loanee Fabrice Muamba did not feature.
Alexandre Song
Charlton Athletic 4-0 West Ham United, February 24
Alexandre Song played 85 minutes as Charlton Athletic recorded an emphatic 4-0 win over fellow relegation strugglers West Ham United. The victory saw Charlton boss Alan Pardew get one over on his former club and heap further misery on Alan Curbishley, his successor at Upton Park. Darren Ambrose opened the scoring on 24 minutes before further strikes from Jerome Thomas and Darren Bent gave the hosts a 3-0 half-time lead. Former Arsenal winger Thomas then completed the scoring on 80 minutes, beating keeper Robert Green in style. The win sees Charlton leapfrog the Hammers into 18th place, however Wigan's 1-0 victory over Newcastle means Pardew's side remain seven points from safety.
Joe O'Cearuill
Brighton and Hove Albion 0-2 Bristol City, February 24
Joe O'Cearuill played a full 90 minutes as Brighton's three-game winning streak was halted by Bristol City. A brace from Phil Jevons put paid to the Seagulls' recent purple patch, the striker scoring on 43 and 84 minutes after replacing Wayne Andrews. The first was a fine volley and the second a penalty after Dean Hammond had fouled Brian Wilson. To add insult to injury Brighton finished the game with 10 men after Tommy Fraser received his marching orders for a foul on City keeper Adriano Basso.
Kerrea Gilbert
Cardiff City 4-1 Preston North End, February 23
Kerrea Gilbert did not feature as Cardiff City moved back into the play-off places with a comprehensive victory over Preston North End. Midfielder Peter Whittingham put the Bluebirds ahead on the stroke of half time before three goals in two second-half minutes decided the game. Michael Chopra and Graham Alexander hit a penalty for each side before Roger Johnson headed the hosts into a 3-1 lead. Chopra converted a Whittingham cross with 23 minutes remaining to complete the scoring.
Arturo Lupoli
Sunderland 2-1 Derby County, February 24
Arturo Lupoli did not feature as Sunderland inflicted a third successive defeat on promotion hopefuls Derby County. Liam Miller struck a late winner for Roy Keane's side to move the Black Cats to within three points of their opponents and league leaders West Bromwich Albion. David Connolly had given the visitors the lead from the spot on 27 minutes after he was fouled by Marc Edworthy. Giles Barnes pulled Derby level with a superb solo strike on the hour mark before Miller's dramatic last-minute strike stole all three points.

Welcome to Golden Goals - a FREE video series on USA.Arsenal.com which showcases some of the finest goals in Arsenal's history.
Each of our weekly clips will feature footage of a classic goal plus expert analysis from former Gunner Stewart Robson and Arsenal.com editor Richard Clarke.
Our series continues with Ian Wright's impudent finish against Everton in 1993.
Read on for the story of his goal and click the PLAY button above to watch our FREE video clip.
Wright v Everton (H) 08-28-1993
On the last day of the 1991/92 season, Ian Wright sent off the old North Bank terrace in style: a hat-trick against Southampton. And the striker didn't take long to impress the fans in its all-seater replacement at the start of the 1993/94 campaign.
While a hat-trick at Highbury by Coventry's Mickey Quinn on the opening day of that season got the new era off to an inauspicious start, Wrighty made his mark in the third home game.
With winners at Tottenham and Sheffield Wednesday, the England man was in top form. And in this game against Everton, he was already on the scoresheet when David Seaman launched a long punt down-field.
It just cleared the head of Gary Ablett and the ever alert Wright raced to the ball.
After one bounce, the striker juggled it one way and then the other to leave Matt Jackson floundering. With the defender turned every which way, Wright lifted a cheeky lob over the imposing figure of Neville Southall in the Everton goal.
He immediately ran to the new North Bank Stand and embraced the adoring fans in the front row.
It was a scene that would be repeated many times in the months and years to come.
