Discussion in 'Off The Beaten Track' started by Aceon6, May 22, 2014.
Premier night is Wednesday, May 28 on Fox. 8 Eastern, 7 Central.
Anyone have any audition spoilers?
No, but my husband was in the Fox Theatre planning a photo shoot with Alvin Ailey when SYTYCD was filming in Atlanta. He said they were rehearsing the "spontaneous" things a lot. He watched them "interviewing" and filming kids meant to be off the cuff, but they of course rehearsed and shot it many times. He was there among them for several hours. He said it was very planned and scripted. But we all knew that, right? He loved it! He can't wait for it to start. Probably no one cares anyway if it isn't "real."
Not sure I want to watch this year, but of course I probably will.
Oh, Fabrice!!! I hate the auditions usually but now I have to watch....... Fabrice! He's an unbelievably hot ballet dancer with the Joffrey. And I'm very glad Irina is getting to be a guest judge. She's doing Starz "Flesh & Bone" series filming now. How fun, Copeland & Billy Porter - awesome!
As usual, mjsbigblog has the best spoilers. And amazingly accurate.
Ugh. Justin Bieber. Why do they have to mess around with something that already works and why have this little twit on a dance show?
Reputation rehab? Nothing on TV is as clean as SYTYCD. Nigel might have gotten him for free.
Bumping up for tonight.
Irina Dvorovenko and Misty Copeland?
I almost got teary watching the opening. I love this show so much.
Thanks for the reminder. I just set it up to tape.
I cannot believe the amount of time spent on the dad's dancing.
or this one dying
and then someone i have never seen will end up making the cut because we made time for all this
Not bad so far- loved Megan (the trailer park girl).
Haven't watched yet, but isn't there always a trailer park girl named Megan?
Is she blonde?
It turns out that she's not -- and she was very good, not like she should be dancing in a gentlemen's club -- so she didn't fit the cliche.
Actually, I watched all but the last 10 minutes tonight and don't remember her at all, so maybe not wow? I was largely bored tonight. Really enjoyed a few ballroom dancers. Felt terrible for the guy from last year whose dad passed away, but the extended drama was ridiculous. Nice kid, agreed with him not being sent on after doing choreo, had a sinking feeling when he showed up again, ignored his second dance when he said he had come back with a dance all about his grieving. I mean, +3 GOE for figuring out what rings Nigel's bell, but I don't even know if he was given a ticket to Vegas (I know they're in LA this time, but to me it's always a ticket to Vegas...)
The chick with the 11 siblings ... the way Nigel was talking to her about her dad "providing services" to her mother I couldn't help but see it thrugh the lens of a very young adult applying for a job, and the hiring manager making lewd comments about her parents' sex lives. WTF.
Did the dishes during the Biebs part. I liked America's Best Dance Crew a ton but I don't have any interest in bringing that into SYTYCD. It's bad enough they have split the win into "Favorite Guy" and "Favorite Girl" instead of just having a winner.
Turned the tv off when Mary and Dharma got lapdances.
It was really uncomfortable to watch, I FF the dvr.
It's as if Nigel can't decide who is watching. Last night was for dance grammas and dance dads. Tweet @dizzyfeet if you're disappointed.
The first girl (the one whose dad danced) -- could she have been any more generic contemporary? What did I miss that made them rave about her?
I saw her dance but have no memory of her performance. What a disappointing beginning to the season. I stuck with the show for an hour, then turned the channel to watch a rerun of Criminal Minds. Gee, too bad I missed Bieber.
I was flipping back and forth between this, tennis and hockey. So I missed stuff. Saw trailer park girl, and grieving guy and the lap dances. Plus a few others here and there. Nothing stood out for me. Trailer park girl was very pretty but she mostly just lifted her leg a lot. Very meh first show.
The hockey game was the most exciting part of my night!
I was impressed by Travis (will he be able to partner?) and Megan.
She was pretty. Nigel likes pretty.
Missed the first part of the show but tuned in late and still saw some good dancers, looks like it's going to be a great season! I'm excited
I thought the standard was pretty good, for a premiere.
I ignore the cringeworthy/trashy auditions.
I watched some of it but then discovered the premier of "Big Ballet" on Ovation & decided to give it a try. It was interesting,a new concept to cast a ballet (Swan Lake) using plus size would be ballet dancers. Not a comedy btw.
I liked the couple towards the end - the black guy & white girl. I can't say too much about the guy because he's so young (18) & it would be creepy but I really liked him. I didn't watch her too much so I don't remember much about her. I liked the guy with the scar & his friend, the latin ballroom dancer. And I also liked the girl from Utah with 11 siblings & the girl who was on her own since age 12. Although I also wondered who paid for her dance lessons.
You would never make it as a judge on this show.

CARY, N.C. - University of North Carolina sophomore Esben Hess-Olesen became the first Tar Heel in three years to win the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Carolinas Regional singles championship as he defeated Cameron Silverman in straight sets at the Cary Tennis Center.
Hess-Olesen, a native of Viby, Denmark entered the tournament at the #9 seed but played excellent six matches since Thursday, including five in straight sets. He defeated Silverman for the title Monday afternoon by a 6-2, 7-5 score. Hess-Olesen was the first Tar Heel to win the championship since Clay Donato defeated South Carolina's Diego Cubas 6-4, 6-7, 6-4 on October 19, 2009.
Hess-Olesen now advances to the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Individual Indoor Championship to be played in New York, N.Y., from November 8-11, 2012.
"Esben played great tennis this weekend," said UNC head coach Sam Paul. "He was consistent day after day which is what you have to be when you have to win six matches in five days. He came in as the No. 9 seed and worked his way through a bracket with a lot of very talented players amongst the top seeds. This is a great moment for Esben and I look forward to him getting to play in New York City in a couple of weeks."
Hess-Olesen bolted to a 5-1 lead in the first set en route to winning it 6-2. The second set was a back-and-forth encounter with seven breaks of service in the 12 games. Hess-Olesen was up 5-3 before Silverman won two straight games. Hess-Olesen kept his composure, however, and broke Silverman in the 11th game and then served out successfully for the win at 7-5.

Hey guys, I'm coming really close to having a troopable PP2 suit ready. However, I'm trying to figure out the Gauntlet still. Like, how are the two rear hoses connected? I haven't found any picture yet that shows what connects the hoses there.
also, where do i connect the other ends of the hoses? I can't even see in any picture where the yellow gauntlet hoses connect on the flightsuit side. and the red gauntlet seems to be connected behind the flack vest...is that correct? Thanks for any help you guys can give me. I'm pretty excited. I'll also be updating my original progress thread with pictures and info...it's been a long time coming.

As the NRA feared, once elect that weak liberal Barack Obama and honest decent Americans will not be allowed to go around carrying a weapon to protect themselves against terrorists. Four American contractors who work for the company formerly known as Blackwater are accused of illegally having weapons in their possession when they opened fire on Afghans and killed one and wounded others. The men insist their employer issued weapons to them which apparently is a breach of the contract between the company and the military. However, according to Col. Chris Kubik, "by the terms of the contract, they were not authorized to carry weapons."
Just wait until the NRA learns God-fearing Americans can't go around with their rifles and assault weapons in Afghanistan, but must adhere to a no-gun policy. Didn't the US military ever hear about the 2nd Amendment!! David Callahan, a lawyer for the company argues the men had stopped when they were approached by a car so they took out their weapons and fired. Hey, NRA, let's get Congress to pass laws saying American rights to their gun supersede any damn law by some foreign government. It's in the Constitution!

There are many different specifications of artificial grass to choose from to suit your budget and the various sports you want to play, including football and rugby.
We have over twenty years' experience as astro turf contractors in Powys LD1 6 in the sports surfacing industry and pride ourselves on assisting a diverse range of clients across the UK. We can help you understand what surfacing is best for your institution and strive to provide you with the best value product for your requirements, always at the highest standard possible.
Deciding which artificial sports surface is right for you takes time and consideration. As expert astroturf contractors we can help make this decision much easier.

As reliable Astro Turf Contractors, we ensure that all our sporting surfaces are 100% usable in every weather condition. Our turf has a permeable finish which allows water to pass through both the artificial grass layer and the foundations beneath so that the ground is truly all purpose. Our surfaces are built using reduced fine angular stones for a durable quality that still allows water to pass through effectively. Head to our surfacing page for further info on the features of our different pitch surfacing options.
If you need to have something varied to organic grass we provide a manufactured 3G turf flooring. By setting up a 3G sports surface your facility will fulfill UK certifications of regulating bodies like FIFA, FA, IRB, RFU and also RFL. The 3rd generation man made grass varies when it comes to fibre length ranging from thirty two millimeters (hockey) to sixty millimeters (rugby).
Whichever turf you opt for, it is important that you give your sports surface regular, proactive maintenance that will prevent any issues arising with the pitch's porous design. The best way to do this is to ensure that all contaminations are dealt with by brushing and deep cleaning the artificial grass fibres. The infill also needs to be maintained and topped-up appropriately to prevent flooding.
Should any damage occur to your surfacing, reactive maintenance may also be required on occasion to ensure the lifespan of our product; this may include seam repairs, infill rejuvenation or full resurfacing.
With the various different turf carpets and specifications we offer comes the different types of astroturf constructions carried out. We ensure that our clients have a great deal of freedom to choose exactly the right turf and construction means for their sports facility; we will customise your quote to fit with your pitch needs and budget, always ensuring that we can still deliver the highest quality product http://www.astroturfcontractors.co.uk/construction/powys/ As astro turf contractors we offer a number of additional pitch features should you need them too. We can install different fencing options – with a selection of heights to choose from – as well as floodlighting – which ensures your pitch is suitable for use all year round, even when it gets dark early. As experienced astroturf contractors in Powys LD1 6 we have found floodlighting to be an extremely popular addition for private and public leisure centres across the country.
Forty millimeter Third generation artificial grass is typically intended for soccer which are often set up over a shockpad to make the surfacing more comfy for the participants.When the existing turf or flooring has been extracted we fit a permeable sub base below the facility. We specify two unique variations of sub base which can be put in place for a 3rd generation surface; these are engineered and dynamic bases. The engineered sub base is made from compacted natural stone with macadam at the top that will produce a firm base for a shockpad. The 3G surfacing is installed with rubberized pellets and silica sand. This allows the surfacing excellent performance attributes.
The infill is built to decrease the effect on the bones of athletes that are using the facility, this massively cuts down on the hazards of serious damage being suffered. This infill is also built to maintain the structure of the fibre length, this really makes the facility comfortable under foot and will boost the performance experience for the participants.A variety of elements can adjust the cost to install the surface; some components range from the measurements of the surface, location, etc. Third generation surfacing is definitely an all-weather product making it great for volatile environments including the United kingdom.
3G synthetic grass may be used for competitive matches, as games aren't required to be cancelled resulting from terrible weather since the synthetic grass generates an all-weather flooring http://www.astroturfcontractors.co.uk/surfacing/3g/powys/ Furthermore, educational institutions and colleges generally use 3rd generation grass for PE and sporting games. because of the porosity of the facility, the facility won't be flooded after a heavy problem of bad weather allowing for institutions like educational institutions to gain. Because the facilities can be employed throughout any conditions, sports activities clubs and leisure facilities won't lose earnings.
In fact, many facilities can obtain extra income through renting the pitch out after hours. Floodlighting and additional features could also be incorporated to make the pitch more beneficial since lighting permits the facility to be played with during the night. There exists a wide variety of suppliers that we could buy the fake turf from for instance Playrite, Lano Sports as well as Rhino Turf. Each of our providers have requirements that meet up with many soccer and rugby governing body certifications; consequently we be sure that you get terrific value for your excellent 3G facility.
We offer these construction and maintenance services for many clients including schools and local sports clubs. The work can be fully customised to suit a range of design options and dimensions. Feel free to discuss your budget with us and we'll provide a quote which is affordable for you.

Washington >>
Few towns know how to throw a party like this one. It happened again Saturday night.
For the last 128 years, journalists and politicos have gathered to break bread and satirically skewer each other, all in good humor, sort of, and for a good cause to raise money in support of journalism education. It is called the Gridiron Club dinner, and Saturday it attracted the biggest names in town, from President Barack Obama and members of his Cabinet and inner circle (Janet Napalitano, Susan Rice), to media personalities like David Gregory and Wolf Blitzer.
So, what's an ink-stained hayseed from Utah, who mixes his metaphors, doing here? Toasting The Salt Lake Tribune's Thomas Burr, one of our two Washington, D.C., reporters. Burr has the rare distinction of being invited to join the Gridiron Club, and Saturday night it became official.
Burr's Gridiron colleagues include such journalists as Susan Page of USA Today, Bob Schieffer of CBS News and Washington bureau chiefs from newsrooms around the country. Membership is limited to 65, and the appointment is for life.
At age 33, Burr is the youngest of the group. He may be the youngest ever. For the record, he's not the first Salt Lake Tribune reporter to have "Gridiron Club" on his résumé. That distinction belongs to a gentleman by the name of William Edwards Annin, who joined in 1890 and was president in 1896.
Tribune readers know Burr's byline, especially in the last year as he led our coverage of Mitt Romney's presidential campaign, as well as the short-lived run by Jon Huntsman. He and Matt Canham are The Tribune's D.C. team, covering Utah's congressional delegation and the federal agencies that loom large in the state, such as the Department of Interior.
The fact that Burr's abilities and commitment to good journalism are being recognized by his high-profile peers confirms what we already know. He's very good at covering the issues, the personalities and the circus that is Washington.
What's more, Burr is establishing himself as a leader among the Washington press corps, serving as president of a group of regional reporters who cover D.C. and as chairman of two other organizations, including the National Press Club's Board of Governors.
Now, back to the party. While Gridiron is getting younger with Burr's appointment, it is still rooted in its 19th-century beginnings. Guests dress as if extras in an episode of "Downton Abbey," with men in white tie and tails.
Saturday night, both Democrats and Republicans had their say, with Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar representing the Dems, and Louisiana governor and possible 2016 presidential candidate Bobby Jindal speaking for the GOP. Both proved to have potential in stand-up comedy if their political fortunes fade.
Broadway-style musical skits fired sharp barbs at sequestration, gun control, D.C. gridlock and the conflict that is politics. A sample: "I'm in the Mood for Love," with a singer impersonating House Majority Leader Eric Cantor crooning to House Speaker John Boehner.
``Funny, John, when you're near me, I'm in the mood for blood;
Treason is in my heart, I am ready to plunder
Oh, is it any wonder: You're ready for a shove.''
Few left unscathed from the evening's parody. Not even Obama, whose reputation for being less than friendly to the press was an obvious target.
"As we were walking in," said Gridiron President Charles Lewis, "I thought I heard the president say, 'So many newspaper reporters. So many interviews to turn down.' "
Of course, the commander in chief got the last word, announcing that he would take a single question Saturday night. The question: Will he be taking questions? The answer: No. Big Obama smile and laughs from the audience.
At the very end, though, the president's words didn't elicit laughs.
"I believe that a free press, one that watches us, one that gets under our skin, is essential in a democracy."
That got a standing ovation.

Arsène Wenger says that Marouane Chamakh's late intervention at Anfield showed why he will be a Premier League success.
The Arsenal striker was well-marshalled for much of his competitive debut but showed great courage to challenge for a 50:50 ball with Pepe Reina when Tomas Rosicky swung a cross into the Liverpool box in stoppage time.
Chamakh's presence made all the difference: he was first to the ball, diverting it against the post before watching the rebound spill out of Reina's hands and into the net for a late equaliser.
Arsenal will score far prettier goals this season but, according to Wenger, the nature of Sunday's strike bodes well.
"Chamakh showed with the goal that he is not frightened to put his head and body in," said the manager.
"That is exactly what the League is all about and that is what we love here."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

URBANA, ILL. - North Carolina's men's tennis team utilized victories at the No. 1 through No. 4 singles positions Friday to score a come-from-behind 4-3 victory over Tulsa. The 18th-ranked Tar Heels defeated the 24th-ranked Golden Hurricane in the first semifinal match of the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Kick-Off Weekend being hosted by the University of Illinois.
Carolina improved to 3-0 on the season while Tulsa fell to 0-3. UNC advances to the championship match of the weekend event and will play either No. 16 Illinois of No. 19 Tennessee Saturday at 8 p.m. EDT at the Atkins Tennis Center. The Fighting Illini and the Volunteers face off at 7 p.m. tonight. The winner of tomorrow's match will advance to the ITA Team Indoor Nationals in Seattle, Wash., slated for Feb. 15-18.
This marks the second straight year the Tar Heels faced off in early-season dual match play and the results have been eerily similar both times. A year ago, Carolina beat the Golden Hurricane in Tulsa by a 5-2 margin in a match where the Tar Heels swept all four of the top-flighted singles matches, just as they did Friday in Urbana.
The difference was that this time UNC lost the doubles point as victories by Tulsa at No. 3 and No. 1 had the Golden Hurricane on top 1-0 in less than an hour's time. Tulsa had also won the doubles point against both Washington and Texas last weekend but in each case saw its opponents rally to win four of six singles matches.
Ironically, the Tar Heels pulled off the same result Friday. Key to the comeback was the decisive victory by senior co-captain William Parker at No. 4 singles. Ranked 102nd by the ITA, he whipped 69th-ranked Alejandro Espejo 6-1, 6-2 to even the match at 1-1. After Carlos Bautista regained the lead for the Hurricane with a straight set win over Oystein Steiro at No. 5, UNC won two matches in a row to go up 3-2.
Sophomore Eseben Hess-Olesen continued his stellar singles play in the 2012-13 season as the No. 18 Dane defeated 34th-ranked Japie De Klerk 6-3, 6-2 at the top spot in the lineup. Next off the court was Brett Clark, ranked 57th, as the Tar Heel freshman beat Grant Ive in straight sets at No. 3 singles.
Tristan Jackson's win over Taylor Meyer would even the match a final time at 3-3 before junior Nelson Vick provided the Tar Heels with the winning point at No. 2 singles. The transfer from Ohio State and nation's No. 58 player in the ITA standings won the first set 6-3 against Clifford Marsland before being spanked 6-1 in the second set. Vick kept his composure, however, and dominated the third set, winning handily at 6-2 to provide the ultimate difference.
Carolina has now won its semifinal match on ITA Kick-Off Weekend four successive years. The last loss in a semifinal at this event came to VCU in 2009 in Chapel Hill.
"William Parker our senior really led the way for us today," said UNC head coach Sam Paul. "He played great in both doubles and singles. Give our kids credit. They came back and they fought so we are very pleased with that. It was a very good win for us against a very good program."

About the Book
Be prepared for scenes of great action & heroics
"I had a word with Sergeant Nolan, so I did, and said you weren't entirely bad unless you were crossed, and then you
were a proper devil. And I told him you had an Irish father, which might be true, might it not?"
"So I'm one of you now, am I?" Sharpe asked, amused.
"Oh no, sir, you're not handsome enough."
Richard Sharpe
Soldier, hero, rogue—the man you always want on your side. Born in poverty, he joined the army to escape jail and climbed the ranks by sheer brutal courage. He knows no other family than the regiment of the 95th Rifles, whose green jacket he proudly wears.

I've got a big swamp located just off one of the rivers here, that I don't think has any duck weed growing in it currently. I thought about trying to transplant some duck weed from another pond into this swamp and get some started to hopefully attract ducks.
Has anyone done this and had success? What kind of steps/pointers can I get for doing it? The pond with the established duck weed is a long distance from the "new" pond. My thought was just to dip a few buckets of duckweed and water out of the other pond and transport it to the new. How long would the duckweed be in buckets before getting dumped into the new pond?

Bill Gates Describes Microsoft's Early Smartphone Efforts as "Clearly a Mistake"
Jason Mick

Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
The Windows Mobile era took a heavy toll on Microsoft's mobile efforts
In a new candid interview with CBS Corp.'s (
) titular station, Microsoft Corp. (
) co-founder and
famed philanthropist
Bill Gates discusses his
former company's
struggles in the mobile era
. Microsoft today accounts for less than 5 percent of the smartphone market, according to most estimates.
For a time, Microsoft
held nearly a quarter
of the fledgling smartphone market (circa 2004). But it failed to keep up with rivals like Google Inc. (
) and Apple, Inc. (
), sticking for years with the increasingly dated Windows Mobile platform. In November 2010, Microsoft launched
a new operating system
, Windows Phone, which was ambitious but lacked strong third-party hardware support. Today Microsoft is still struggling to sell the market on its latest mobile OS --
Windows Phone 8
Bill Gates in the interview calls Microsoft's former cellphone strategy "clearly a mistake", remarking, "There's a lot of things like cellphones where we didn't get out in the lead early. We didn't miss cellphones, but the way that we went about it didn't allow us to get the leadership."
The tech icon says that both he and current CEO (
and close friend
) Steve Ballmer are both incredibly "self-critical". He comments, "He [Ballmer] and I are not satisfied that in terms of breakthrough things that we're doing everything possible."
Steve Ballmer's company has struggled in the mobile era, since Mr. Gates' retirement.

Mr. Gates expressed confidence, though, that it's not too late for Microsoft to claw its way to a significant mobile market share. He's
a big fan of Windows 8 and Microsoft's Surface tablet
Microsoft is reportedly aiming to
unify the Windows and Windows Phone platforms
under one consistent set of mostly overlapping APIs and user interface themes, to allow users to feel more comfortable with both form factors, and to help developers save time deploying cross-platform apps. The first unified release, Windows Blue, may land late this summer.
The revisions are also accompanied with some big leadership change. Windows President Steven Sinofsky was
driven out
new rising stars are taking his place
at the company. Some investors have
called on CEO Ballmer to step down
, but for now Mr. Ballmer is
hanging tight
in the top spot,
vocal as ever
"I mean, if you wanna break down someone's door, why don't you start with AT&T, for God sakes? They make your amazing phone unusable as a phone!" -- Jon Stewart on Apple and the iPhone

'The Oilers had their eye on Martin Biron early in the season and were dangling defenseman Steve Staios. The Sabres first wanted to see how Ryan Miller stood up to NHL competition and later were forced to keep Biron after Miller broke his thumb. Edmonton eventually lost patience, backed off Biron and swapped a first-round pick for Roloson before the NHL trade deadline. The Sabres traded away Mika Noronen for a second-round pick and failed to pick up a defenseman.'

They are tournament lel and are extremely good, in my experience. See te dates on the boxes, the newer ones never have any dimples on em. They cost $45 - the 25%, you paying $34. Awesome stuff for that price.

Two local fields use Diablo Heat as their field paint, so I've had a lot of time to use it. It has a thick shell and bright yellow fill. I've never had one chop on me or seen one swell or clump at the local fields, but this could be due to a good rotation of fresh stock.
Ive heard good things about the Diablo Heat. 42 a case
I have two basic problems with the paint. The first is that a good number of shots seem to bounce, especially off markers, hands, forearms, and angled flat surfaces. The second is that, after breaking, the shots seem to be powdery or chalky and do not leave a good mark on clothing or especially skin. I've found it's sometimes hard to distinguish a bounce from a hit on open skin because the paint doesn't leave a good mark. Comparison paints like Valken Infinity and DXS Field leave an obvious, waxy glob that you have to peel off.

Newly elected Prime Minister Kevin Rudd announced that Canberra some time next year will be the scene of the first gay union in Australia. The ACT Civil Partnership Bill which allows for formal ceremonies in which same-sex couples make a legal pledge to each other before an official is likely to be passed by the Assembly early next year. A spokesperson for the Gay lobby said, "It certainly is a landmark not only for the ACT but for the entire nation." He assumed other states in Australia would shortly feel comfortable in allowing such same sex unions. However, some conservative groups expressed anger at the Rudd decision to support gay rights. The Reverend Fred Nile said this action cements Canberra's reputation as a "place of vice" and called for a national tourist boycott under the slogan, "Nobody Have A Holiday In Canberra." Reverend Nile commented, "I think it's shocking, we should be proud of our capital. It should be a place of virtue, not of vice."
Decency and vice certainly reside in the eye of the beholder. One can only wonder if tourists to Canberra will be walking the streets searching to discover if they could see two men or two women holding hands or if they actually went to the capital for good time. Men like the good reverend Nile make a great deal of noise concerning vice and decency, and we can assume he leads a virtuous life at all times. Unfortunately, here in America we simply have too many recent cases of preachers of virtue who turn out to inhabit the dens of iniquity not only with women, but with those of the same male sex.

Robin van Persie believes Arsenal and Manchester City have both fallen foul of fixture scheduling in recent days.
The clubs will meet in the Quarter-Finals of the Carling Cup at Emirates Stadium this evening on the back of disappointing draws in the Premier League.
Arsenal were held by Fulham on Saturday and City dropped points for only the second time this season when they drew 1-1 at Liverpool.
Van Persie understands that fixture congestion is always a factor for successful clubs but he thinks the past week has been especially harsh on Arsenal and their next opponents.
"Saturday's game was our third in seven days, and that's a lot of football," he told the Official Matchday Programme.
"We had a tough game at Norwich in which we had to fight until the very last minute, while four days later we had an intense game against a very fit Borussia Dortmund side that kept us occupied right until the end.
"Recovery time between Wednesday and Saturday was our shortest for a while; it's not an excuse, but if you play Saturday-Wednesday-Saturday you do perhaps feel five or ten per cent different than you would if you had an extra 24 hours.
"We still had our chances to win against Fulham, but I think everyone sensed that there was a little bit of fatigue somewhere.
"Manchester City have a similar situation this evening, to be fair – even worse, because they had a really tough game at Liverpool only two days ago. I know it's hard to get the fixtures right for every single team, but I don't really understand the scheduling for either us or City.
"These are big games, screened everywhere on TV, and people expect everyone to be fit and put in an amazing performance. At some point, that's not realistic - if you're playing four games in nine days, you'll suffer in the end. Sometimes I feel the fixtures could be decided a little more sensibly."

Each object or group of objects is accompanied by a brief description of its art historical significance or surprising or little-known aspects of its history. 192-page paperback book with 138 color and 3 black-and-white illustrations.

Wednesday 2nd May 2012
Saturday was a thoroughly enjoyable day all around for our travelling party. An easy journey, plenty of banter and pre-match refreshment made it the perfect build-up.
We couldn't help but reflect on the journey home, however. It was arguably a penalty decision away from being the ideal away day experience.
Since their return to the top flight, Stoke have proved time and time again that trips to the Potteries are nothing less than difficult when looking to come away with three points.
The players are well aware of that too I believe and it was no coincidence that we started the game extremely brightly and could have taken the lead but for a fine save from an early RVP header.
The one and only time we found ourselves stretched for pretty much the the whole of the first half, we were punished in the hardest way possible. It was the perfect cross for a striker of such immense height and we were seriously unlucky to go behind.
Shortly after of course, with fine work from both Yossi and Tommy R in the build-up, our captain slotted home to bring us level.
In a difficult remainder of the match where our hosts defended admirably, we continued to probe for that all-important opening and a chance to take the three points.
A number of half chances came and went before Yossi burst into the box onto RVP's pass. In the away section we probably had the best view of all and it was clear that he had no reason to go down. It looked to us like Yossi was pushed over but on this occasion the decision, crucially, didn't go our way.
Bac made a fine defensive clearance in the dying moments, unsurprisingly from a long throw but to be honest, offensively this was pretty much all Stoke offered on the day threat-wise.
It was another point to add to our total as we headed home with thoughts turning to Norwich on Saturday.
Other news since my last thoughts include the announcement that Lukas Podolski will be a Gooner next season. It is a move that has been rumoured for a little while now and for me it is fantastic news that a player approaching the prime of his career has been confirmed as arriving before the transfer 'silly season' has even commenced. He has already achieved over 90 international caps for one of the world's strongest football nations. Welcome to the family Lukas.
A point away at the Britannia is not a bad result in any season and hopefully it will prove a crucial one. It means no matter what happens elsewhere we are two wins from that all-important third place.
Norwich stand in the way for the first three points after a fine first season back in the top flight.
Let's do our bit to make it a noisy and positive final home game of the season.
Come on you mighty reds.

The Canisius softball team pounded out a season-high 21 hits and twice came back from a two-run deficit to record a 9-7 win over Rider in the second game of a MAAC doubleheader Saturday afternoon in Lawrenceville, N.J. The Golden Griffins lost the first game by a score of 5-0 and the team moved to 14-13 overall and 1-1 in MAAC play with Saturday's results. The Broncs are now 6-27 overall and 2-2 in conference games.
Canisius led 1-0 through three innings and then took a 2-0 lead in the top half of the fourth on an RBI-double by sophomore Michelle DelPrince. The host Broncs took their first lead of the game in the bottom of the fourth with a four-run scoring burst. After the first two batters that inning reached base safely, freshman Emily Cottrell ripped a three-run home run to left to put the Broncs up 3-2. Rider added a run to take a 4-2 hold and had the bases loaded with two outs, but Canisius reliever Corrine Schaus got out of danger by getting a line-drive out to end the inning.
Canisius retook the lead with three runs in the fifth, highlighted by a RBI-base hits by senior Stephanie Pfentner, senior Katie Medina and freshman Tori Nappo. Rider charged back with three runs in the home half of the fifth to take a 7-5 lead, but the Blue and Gold's bats were again up to the task, as the Griffs scored three times in the sixth to regain the lead at 8-7.
In the sixth, sophomore Robin Kennery drove in teammate Meghan Cuda with a base hit up the middle and Medina knocked in a pair with a double to center that allowed Kennery and freshman Alexis Roman to score. Roman added an insurance run for Canisius in the seventh with an RBI-single that pushed DelPrince across the plate. DelPrince reached earlier in the inning with a triple to center, her fourth triple of the season.
Canisius junior Jen Consaul came on in relief of Schaus in the fifth and earned the win, her 10th win in the circle this season. She did not allow a hit or a run in her 2.2 innings of work, and she fanned three and walked one. Canisius senior Amanda Baun started for the Griffs and went 3.2 innings where she allowed four runs on five hits while walking three and striking out two. She went through the game's first three innings without giving up a hit.
Six Canisius hitters had multi-hit days in the game two win, as the team tallied its season-high 21 hits in the victory. Medina went 4-for-4 with two doubles and three RBIs, while Cuda, Roman, Kennery, and DelPrince all had three hits in the winning effort. Kennery added two RBIs to her team-leading total of 22, and Cuda scored twice to give her 21 runs scored this season. Junior Valorie Nappo also had a hit, a double, and a run scored in the win for Canisius.
In the first game, Rider snapped a seven-game losing streak to Canisius with a 5-0 win. The Griffs had just three hits in the loss, with Pfentner, Cuda and Valorie Nappo all reaching base. Consaul took the loss after she went five innings and allowed five runs, four earned, on nine hits.
After playing its first 27 games away from Buffalo, Canisius will host St. Bonaventure Tuesday, April 9, at 3 p.m., in a non-league doubleheader. First pitch is set for 3 p.m.Game Notes: This was the 37th and 38th all-time meeting between Canisius and Rider in softball, with the Griffs holding a 24-14 lead in the series… The win in game two over Rider was the program's 317th all-time regular season MAAC victory… Canisius is now hitting .301 as a team for the season… Of Canisius' 223 hits this season, 61 have been for extra bases and 44 of those 61 have been doubles… Eight Griffs have scored 10 or more runs this season, led by Cuda and DelPrince, who have crossed the plate 21 times apiece… Medina's four hits in game two are a new career high for the senior… Consaul's 10 wins in the circle this season are a new career high for the junior pitcher.

NEW CASTLE, Ind. (AP) — An Indiana prosecutor says a Pennsylvania couple charged with felony neglect after police found five children riding unrestrained in the back of an unheated rental truck in November have agreed to plead guilty as part of a plea deal.
Henry County Prosecutor Joseph Bergacs tells The Courier-Times reported the agreement calls for David Detjen, 41, and his wife, Rebecca, 40, of Fairmont City, to plead guilty to neglect and receive an 11.5 year suspended sentence, and instead be played on probation.
Messages seeking comment from the Detjens' attorneys were left Saturday at the Henry County public defender's office.
A sentencing hearing is scheduled for May 30.
David Detjen told police at the time he was unemployed and moving his family to California to look for work.

A project of
The Face of Immigration Today: Diaspora (MLS 691)
Course Length: 8 weeks
Interested students may apply credits toward a Master of Arts in Liberal Studies degree from Excelsior College.
Course Overview
The dispersion of a people is often precipitated by war, ethnic conflict, or economic difficulties and that dispersion results in the creation of a diaspora: a group of persons now separated from their roots. This course provides historical and contemporary data and case studies on the phenomenon of diaspora in the United States.
Perhaps not surprisingly, members of a diaspora often define themselves by their ethnicity or family affiliations. Many frequently maintain ties—financial, cultural, and emotional—to their homeland. In addition to providing historical and contemporary perspectives, this course addresses the impacts of globalization, the effects of conflict in one's homeland, and the psychological and sociological consequences of migration and of events leading up to it.
The course also provides insight into issues confronted by individuals, family, and groups who have migrated to a new land, not the least complex of which is their development of a sense of identity and belonging. The important cultural contributions of diaspora will also be emphasized. Individuals living or working among immigrants will be encouraged to use course assignments to explore ways to enhance the experience for all parties.
New Populations and the Community: Diaspora (MLS 692)
Course Length: 8 weeks
Course Overview
Diaspora is an important and unique force in world culture. This course exams diasporic populations and their impact on local communities.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by Rocastle, Dec 17, 2011.
At the CG (colliding guard) position.
With CV out the first 4 games, I'd guess Daye will play PF behind JJ, and SF behind Tay. Maxiell will also get a lot of minutes. So, Tay, Daye, JJ, Monroe and Maxiell will be our front court for awhile. That means for the first 4 games, we'll see a Bynum and Knight at the point, and Stuckey and Gordon at the 2.
Which, IMO, is the way it should be. Who cares about CV, does he really ADD anything? Cripes.
Daye is way too soft to play PF. He is closer to SG than PF.
And CV is harder? Like I said, CV is useless. I hope Max gets those minutes at PF, because moving Daye to play PF is absurd, and I hope Frank knows this. We are so thin, it's not even funny.
Should Vernon Macklin get some of those minutes?
Jake Voshukl shoulda got some of those minutes..........
Chuck Hayes, 4 years 23.something million. Little more money than Max, but I'd personally take Hayes over Max any day. http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/7...huck-hayes-agrees-deal-sacramento-kings-again
If that's true - that's depressing.
Well, I am truly happy they signed Stuckey. Anyone who makes their living crashing to the basket to score is a guy we need in Piston land. And as a backup point, behind Knight - perfect. I loved the way the new coach tried a starting backcourt of Knight and Daye in the 2nd preseason game. And despite some problems during the game, he stuck with these two in crunch time and we won with them. Gordon, trade the guy fast. Don't let another season be ruined by trying to shoehorn a guy into the rotation. Between Daye, Knight, and Stuckey, they can easily cover the minutes at guard. Macklin, the anti - CV. Macklin only plays around the basket. Good. From what I can see, in limited minutes I must say though, is good enough defense and rebounding alone to let him play. I believe we will see plenty of offense from him too, all from under the basket. We'll see. But man, what a huge amount the money the Pistons can save if Macklin pans out and they can lose the large contract of CV. (and most importantly, we just need to lose his soft play.) Finally, JJ needs to be our backup small forward to Tay. His first year, he ended up being a darn good fill in while Tay was out with injury, but then, for no good reason of any sort, they never let him be Tay's backup after Tay returned. A rotation: Knight, Daye, JJ, JMAX, Monroe 2nd unit: Stuckey (with Daye or Knight taking turns playing with the 2nd unit), Tay, Ben Wallace, Macklin. This is changed up a bit from a previous rotation I posted before using the same nine players. For one, it leaves Stuckey, Ben Wallace, and Tay grouped together so as to give some continuity from last year. It pairs JMAX and JJ, so that JMAX can just do the fighting under the basket while JJ collects the rebounds - letting each do what they do best. Knight, Daye, and Monroe, the core of our future team is grouped together. (no change from last rotation there) Tay is in the 2nd unit, so that when you have Stuckey paired with Daye in the backcourt, you got Tay to help with the ball handling chores. Now here is a another rotation: Knight, Daye, Tay, Monroe, Macklin 2nd unit: Stuckey, Knight or Daye take turns with the 2nd unit, JJ, JMAX, Wallace This rotation puts nothing but fairly capable offensive players in the starting unit, while relying on a ton of length on the defensive end. The 2nd unit would contrast greatly with first unit, a much more physical set of up front defenders. JJ again compliments JMAX well enough, and if JJ can knock down a consistent outside shot - something he has shown promise of - it might just not be too crowded around the basket for Stuckey to drive to the basket. PS, that other rotation I posted in another thread, just for reference was Knight, Daye, Tay, Ben Wallace, Monroe starting with Stuckey, (Knight or Daye), JJ, JMAX, Macklin for the 2nd unit.
I agree Lee. There has to be a few teams looking for an undersized shooting guard, who can't play defense and is best suited coming off the bench who makes about 12 million per year. Get on it Joe.
This year is different. The schedule is incredibly compact, and the Pistons aren't going to challenge for anything meaningful, aside from a ton of ping pong balls - and that's perfect. The thing about the compact schedule is that everyone on the roster is going to get signficant playing time. We can totally use the time to evaluate Gordon this season - even though I agree with the sentiment that Gordon should be moved - while still giving Stuckey, Knight, Bynum and Daye plenty of PT at the guard position. So Gordon getting a lot of PT is not the problem it would have been in a normal year. That said, I do think it would be better to trade Gordon for a big defensive center - if we can't attract a good FA big guy. If Bengo doesn't work out into a top sixth man again, we can use the amnesty clause next season, and nobody on our roster this season will lose development time from his play this year.
They have to play Gordon a lot early and see if he can do anything. If he doesn't bounce back to his Bulls' days where he was putting up 21 ppg, then use the amnesty on him right away and move on.
That makes sense. He should have a chance to see what he can do with Rip and Kuester gone. He has no trade value so the amnesty would work.
Can't use amnesty until next season. Optimally, gordon gets his value around the league built back up, and we trade him for something good.
You are correct. You have to use the amnesty before the season begins.
Shooting guard.
I think Gordon would return to form simply by getting him out of Detroit. I don't think the Pistons will ever play a style that will suit him.
Funny, I can't help but believe in my heart of hearts that Ben Gordon is better than James Harden and Jason Terry. Is it possible that Ben's biggest issue as to why he hasn't developed here is because the aforementioned play with and off of Dirk and Kevin Durant and BG plays with and off of..............Tayshaun Prince?

Health Story: I've Been Given My Life Back
What is lumbar fusion?
Lumbar fusion is the surgical joining of two vertebrae in the lumbar spine, or lower back. Your vertebrae are the bones that make up your spine (backbone). Lumbar fusion permanently stops movement between two vertebrae. It is a treatment for a variety of diseases and conditions of your spine.
Most spinal fusions use a bone graft to fuse or join two vertebrae. Your doctor may also use screws, rods or plates to hold your vertebrae in place. Lumbar fusion can potentially help decrease pain and maintain function in a damaged or diseased lumbar spine.
Lumbar fusion is a common, somewhat controversial surgery with serious risks and potential complications. You may have less invasive treatment options. Consider getting a second opinion about all your treatment choices before having a lumbar fusion.
Types of lumbar fusion
Lumbar fusion procedures generally use bone graft material. This involves placing bone graft material in strips along your vertebrae, in pieces between your vertebrae, or packed into a special cage that goes between your vertebrae. Your body heals the bone around the graft over a period of several months.
Spinal fusion is not immediate with surgery. It takes time for your body to form enough bone around the graft to permanently fuse your vertebrae.
The types of lumbar fusion procedures include:
Allograft fusion uses a piece of cadaver bone for the bone graft. Allografts come from a bone bank. Allograft fusions require only one incision and cause less pain than an autograft fusion. However, bone fusion and healing is less predictable with an allograft.
Autograft fusion uses a piece of your own bone for the bone graft. Your doctor will usually take bone from your pelvis. This type of lumbar fusion was the only option available in the past. However, an autograft requires an additional incision, lengthens surgery time, and causes more post-operative pain.
Synthetic, or artificial graft fusion uses synthetic (totally man-made) materials and modified natural bone. Some artificial bone graft materials are used alone and others are combined with an allograft or autograft.
Other procedures that may be performed
Your doctor may perform other procedures in addition to lumbar fusion. These procedures are usually done first and include:
Discectomy is the surgical removal of part or all of a spinal disc. A discectomy treats degenerated, herniated or ruptured spinal discs.
Foraminotomy is the widening of the opening where the nerve roots leave the spinal canal. Your doctor may use this procedure when the opening (foramina) is narrowed causing pressure on the spinal nerves.
Laminectomy is the removal of a bony area called the lamina. The lamina is the back part of each vertebra of your spine. A laminectomy makes your spinal canal larger. This reduces pressure in your spinal canal and your spinal nerves.

I don't normally post off topic things but I thought I would give a review of a workout I am about to finish. T25....I pretend the T is for the T-visor.
First some back ground: I did a round of P90X about 5 years ago and got great results, but the workouts were a bit too long for a husband and father of 3. I really liked the simple aspect of P90X of just doing good workouts each day.
I did a round of Insanity earlier this year but did not finish due to a back injury. I liked Insanity also but again the length of the workouts became a bit of a problem. In the second phase of Insanity the workouts stretch out to about 50 to 60 minutes
So about 12 weeks ago I saw a commercial for T25. Basically it is done by the same guy who does Insanity and it is a cardio driven/plyo/resistance style workout. I decided to try it out. I am now in week 9 of 10 so I have made up my mind on the program.
I really have like this workout. Each workout is 25 minutes long with no real warm-up there is about a 3 minute cool down after each day so your total time is about 30 minutes. I have been able to stay with the program and fit in the workouts each day. The workouts are well done and easy to follow. It does require a bit of coordination but that will build with the program. The program is split into Alpha and Beta phases with the moves getting more difficult in Beta. There is also a Gamma workout that you can buy additionally but I haven't done that yet.
So if you are looking for a decent workout I would recommend this. PLUS the T on the back wall reminds me that I need to be in shape to properly troop Jango.
And just for some personal data. I am about 5-10, I started at about 196 and close to 20% body fat. Today I am at 188 with 13.9% body fat.
Also for full disclosure, I still did about 3 gym workouts per week for additional resistance training.
Anyways, just thought I would throw this out there for the community in case anyone else is looking for a workout and would like a review from a unpaid user of the product.

We love it here at RWU and we think you will, too. But you don't have to take our word for it. Check out the video clips below to hear what our current students have to say.
He loved the waterfront campus but it was the people at RWU that sold Bobby '13.

Hello everyone,
My name is Erlon and I'm 29 years old. I live in Brazil and I'm joining you to share experiences and to know about working away from Brazil. I'm really exciting to work abroad to improve the idiom, english of course and I think that the only and easier way to do that is becoming an engineer. I Guess that it took me a bit time still but there are a plenty of opportunities for this area. What do you think? Thanks and I'm glad to participate this group.

|The SVT was not the first one with traction control there were some early models with the Advance Trac system that had traction control and rear disc brakes. These are actually pretty rare and I've only seen one in person.
Yeah, for reliable better look for Focus with Duratec engine. But generally consider that most parts are shared between SVT and regular Focus, and the SVT needs more maintenance simply because it's driven more aggressive by the owner.
What I love about my SVT is fun factor. It's not made for drag racing, or to compete with GTs on the highway, but as a daily driver it's extremely fun. Aaaaand I like how everyone underestimates it on the road, thinking it's just another slowboat Focus... and then comes the surprise :P
@ Snow performance - SVT is the only first generation model with Traction Control.
|If you have kids I highly recommend a 4dr sedan (05-07 ST would be the desirable model) or a ZX5. I have both a ZX3 and ZX5 and right now I'm missing having the extra doors (I need a clutch for the SVT and it's pricey so I have to wait for that). It's a pain getting the kids in and out the back with the 2dr. I have 3 kids 2 in booster seats and one in a rear facing car seat. So much easier getting them in and buckled with the extra rear doors.
|Good points.. I should have figured parts would be but forgot about the insurance aspect... like I mentioned, I drive like a slug anyway and have 2 kids, maybe Svt isnt the way to go, really like the styling though. Had someone tell me they are horrible in the snow, any experience there? Oh sorry to be a pain but also any specific things I should check for when i'm looking at the car or Qatar to ask. Thanks again for those who replied.
|A t-belt kit is roughly 70 bucks if ordered from Rockauto. It should be less than 300 for any mechanic to change it, for 600-800 they better be changing the clutch out for that price. I suggest if your broke to not get the SVT. While it is a very fun and entertaining car to drive they can give you a headache once in a while. A normal focus with the zetec or duratec (preferably the 2.3L) are the work mules of the model. You can puts lots of miles on them without much care where's as a SVT needs some attention from time to time. I have both and while I do enjoy driving the SVT a lot the other focus has been my DD for years. SVT parts tend to be more expensive, and if you get one that hasn't been taken care of be prepared to do some maintenance. If you doing everything your self it's really not that much money but if you have to pay someone then it can rack up quickly, of course this is with any car though.
My '05 ST has the 2.3 Duratec, which I have read is very reliable, and it certainly has lots of very useable torque. Perhaps a ZX3 or ZX5 with the 2.3 and a 5 speed would be similarly quick and responsive, without the onus of higher maintenance (and insurance) costs. Another thing to consider is that Ford no longer fully supports the SVT with replacement parts, so you may be reduced to haunting salvage yards, or worse, ebay.de or ebay.co.uk, when Tousley can no longer get spares.
There is always the issue of the prior owner(s), and how well they maintained the car, and even if they scrupulously adhered to the factory maintenance schedule, they may have had their oil changes done, as I did once, by a shop that didn't realize the difference between an SVT, and a regular Ztec, and used the wrong weight oil!
Remember too, that two kids can require lots of time, and money. I speak from experience on that score.
All of this is simply to give you information on which to make your own, informed choices, not to discourage you from getting yourself a fun daily driver.
BTW, that $200 figure for the t-belt replacement is DIY, which, as you may have read, is a very finicky procedure. I would budget $600 to $800 to have a competent mechanic do the job.
Good luck.
|Thanks for the input... any opinions whether to go svt? Defined. Would be more fun.. but higher risk it was abused. On the other hand I read that the motor is better material?
Read these two threads.
IMO, if you never drive an SVT, you probably won't regret not buying one, BUT I highly recommend that you do drive one, you will love it. I bought an '04 after seeing it in the BST on FJ. I love it.
There isn't much about the SVT, or Foci in general, that you can't find here, or on FJ. For instance, there is a fix for the leaky SVT thermostat housing (I just ordered one for my '04. $115. shipped from Tousley Ford in MN., an FJ sponsor)
As was said above, the timing belt and attendant pulleys are priority one for these cars, and there will be a constant need for attention to something or other, so if you are going to be short of cash, this could become an issue with your wife. On the other hand, you deserve to enjoy your drive to and from work, so if you can find some twisties on Cape Ann, between home and work, you will usually have a smile on your face when you arrive. Good luck.
|Let me just say that even tho my car was mechanically in terrible shape already, it never left me stranded. And I pushed my luck on that driving it for 6 months this way. Now it's in my garage and I hope to have it back on the road by new year. If you run into a trouble with SVT it will 95% of a time be cooling system or accessory belt, never heard about stock SVT engine just breaking on the road. I did hear tho about people with modified camshafts or cases where timing belt snapped and sent engine to hell, cause SVT is an interference engine, so better don't mess with timing and change belt every 80k miles and you will be allright.
haha okay, funny you say that because I carry certain emergency stuff in my truck.. certain tools, extra oil, ect.
I dont mind small jobs, I am pretty handy, have air tools, and enjoy to work on my vehicles... but I commute a long way and really do not want to get stranded... and I def. keep up with maintenance, you just never know about previous owners though.

Headphones item created by , May 5, 2010
Pros - Cheap, you can put them on your neck and use them as small speakers
Cons - Below average audio quality, might as well be open cans since they leak A LOT of outside noise
I don't remember much about these other than I used to put them on my neck and put the audio volume to 100 on my iPod to use them as speakers on my neck. The audio wasn't very detailed and the bass was harsh. Also, even though these were closed headphones they leaked A LOT of outside noise, which is why I ended up purchasing Shure's for the noise cancellation (The SRH115)
