Do You Know the Best Diets of 2017?
Organic Liaison is Kirstie Alley's weight loss system that is the only certified organic weight loss system. No stranger to the battle of losing the bulge, only to gain it back and then try and lose it again, Kirstie is using her own experience to help individuals who are desperate to lose weight receive all the support they need to reach their weight goals and keep it off.
While *Organic Liaison launched in 2010 with a broad product line, the company was purchased in 2014 and reduced to only a single product -- Organic Liaison Rescue Me. It's billed as an "organic energy elixir" that Kirstie Alley swears by.
The brand also originated with a membership and community program, but those have been done away with, too.PRO
- Created by someone who has firsthand experience of dieting difficulties
Promotes organic and nutritious foods
Meal plans and recipes cater to a variety of dietary preferences and weight loss needs
- Promotion of Organic Liaison supplements has a sales feel to it
- May only appeal to those who need to lose a significant amount of weight
- Doesn't offer a clear-cut exercise plan
Organic Liaison is the first ever certified organic weight loss program. It once offered a host of diet and nutrition support to help you reach your weight loss goals, but after a purchase by Jenny Craig in 2014, only one single product remains in the brand's offerings. Organic Liaison can now only be purchased through the Jenny Craig website as a complement to that program.
It's an odd fit, considering Jenny Craig's diet is not organic, nor does it comply with the principles on which Organic Liaison was founded.
Try this recipe for Kirstie Alley's Green Soup, enough for you and to share with, what she calls, your Chubby Buddy.EXERCISE
There is no fitness plan.CONCLUSION
Kirstie Alley's Organic Liaison is the first ever USDA certified organic weight loss program.
Other things to be aware of are that the program's promotion of its proprietary weight loss products may produce side effects and/or may not produce the intended effects and its lack of a fitness component leaves the onus on you to devise a regular exercise routine.Common Misspellings

I started Organic Liason about 2 1/2 weeks ago, I love this stuff! The taste is not all that bad. I like it straight (w/water of course), I freeze it like Kirstie suggests. Like some of the others, I do want to drink it all at once, but I am now trying to spread it out during my day. So far, I have lost almost 10 pounds and I am so excited! My energy level is up, it's not jittery and I am never "slammed" like a sugar high. My appetite is great! I don't crave.I have gone back to my Zumba class....loving it! It's Zumba! I've ordered that kit too! Woo-hoo! Who knows with this combo, I just might become a Zumba instructor! LOL!
I say to all those who have just tried it for the first 2 weeks....give it another chance, use the tools on their site, mix it with your favorite drink, I know you will love it too.
Need A Coupon For Organic Liaison; WHERE DO I FIND IT ??? For Kristie Ally's Diet Kit~~I NEED THE COUPON FOR ORDERING~~ WHERE DO I FIND IT~~( Or ), WHAT IS THE CODE WORD ?
So far, I have lost 15 lbs with Organic Liasion. I feel great and have TONS of energy!! I can't wait to lose more and more! Thanks @Kirstie Alley
The L-Tryptophane and teh calcium magnesium are the best sleep aids I've ever had. Wake up feeling great.
Rescue me is also very helpful. I am ale to go to the company kitchen and no longer have the urge to grab a handful of candy or a cookie.
Down 17 pounds and counting!!
I lost 25 pounds in 1 month being on Organic Liaison. Everything is great. I love my Rescue Me. The Rescue Me has been a G-d�??s send.
I really like the product. The elixir has a very cranberry like taste and did curb my cravings for sugary foods.
The ltriptophane also works but it does not taste very good. I usually take it like a shot of medicine with water right after.
I have lost 13 pounds though.
From the first day I used my Rescue Me kit I stepped into an amazing journey. What I love about Organic Liaison besides the great products, the opportunity to eat organic healthy foods, and the tools provided is the authenticity behind it. Kirstie Alley's vision to create this healthy product, share with others as she goes, and her courage to shine in her progress are like none other. Its real, its inspiring, and its so easy to jump in and see results.
The Rescue Me is excellent. It tastes great, is totally good for you, and I can bring it to work and boost my energy throughout the day. It's not just a "weight loss" product - the Organic Liaison life style offers an invitation to make real life changes that inspire even greater changes as you continue. Organic Liaison is full of the tools, support, and resources to achieve longterm results. It works because it makes sense...the information is amazing and everything is broken down in a way that shows you not just how to get results but why you can achieve them. What it offers you is real and practical. You can build a blueprint for the rest of your life! The products work, taste great and influence positive habits throughout the day. The guidance available and the tools you receive can help restructure your habits and maximize your results.
In just the first month I dropped 2 sizes and beyond the weight loss I totally shifted my eating habits and perspective. Starting my day with rescue me gives me the energy to get through even the crazy days.I feel centered and in alignment with creating what honors me within and around me. The knowledge I gain daily from the online site is beyond words. I have no regrets and would recommend these products to anyone!
I agree with Ginger, it is very suspicious that a ton of positive reviews were all posted around the same time and are very similar.
Does it not seem suspicious that most of the positive reviews are posted just a couple of minutes apart and are always written in the same style? It's unfortunate that comment reviews can be used by marketers.
Organic Liaison is a fantastic life changing program.. it's more than a "diet" it is a life style change. When you become more aware of what you are eating, how you are eating, what is in that food you are eating coupled with the Organic Liaison products helping stem your cravings, appetite control, increase in energy, body revitalization -- the whole system is a 24/7 way to feed/fuel/ care for your entire body!!
I have TREMENDOUS energy and I FEEL GREAT! If you have never hit rock bottom with your weight/health/energy, you can't possibly know how it feels when you finally begin to feel RIGHT and GOOD!
I believe in Organic Liaison. I believe in an organic way of living. It has worked and is working for me....
Organic Liaison to me is more than a diet- It is a way of life.
As a child I was over weight- When I was 17 I lost 58lbs, and it was the hardest thing I've ever done, but the greatest thing I could have ever done for myself- Then, I did not have Organic Liaison-- But how I wish I did!! I used to have so many cravings and wants for toxic foods..- Until Organic Liaison I didn't know half of what I was putting into my body.
OL has taught me not only the correct way to eat, but how to love my body again. As with anyone who has had weight struggles in their life, you will find that liking ourselves when we look in the mirror is tough-- With this plan (OL) I have no regrets on the things I eat! EVER!
Rescue me is such a great tasting drink, it fulfills my appetite, and I feel great-- Without all the junk food, that I was eating. I function so much better in work, life, and my relationships(FOOD IS NO LONGER THE CENTER OF MY LIFE!). I was a sugar high maniac before this diet, now I'm just an regular happy eater. Thank you Organic Liaison. Your products have changed my life in such a great way!
I really encourage anyone who is thinking of a "diet plan" to reconsider-- Dieting isn't a quick fix take a chance and try Organic Liaison and you will see that it is a lifestyle change! You have to know how to properly take care of your body! This plan not only tells you meal plans, calorie counting, but it also has help and advice from nutritionist, how can you go wrong with a team of experts in your corner that actually care about you and your success! Finally a company sees that the success of their consumer is their success!
I have tried so many programs, weight watches, nutrisystem, south beach, quick trim... You name it I've done it!! -- They work great for a bit yes! But long term this is the program! GET WITH IT!! Better yourself by taking action and accountability for your body! Give it the nutrients it deserves! Be a better person and enjoy life!!
The plan is designed for busy working people, (at least for me-- a busy working person) I find it incredibly easy and fun!
Organic Liaison works! TRY IT!!
This product is amazing! I no longer have serious cravings for sugar and sweets. The online calorie counter is easy and pretty too.
This is the first weight loss product I've tried that actually tastes good. I really like that it's organic and not a bunch of crap. I'm down 21 pounds and had to buy a new belt!
I tried this Diet and it DOES NOT WORK. Also, I was a bit creeped out to find that it is created and manned by Scientologists.
Thanks to Organic Liaison, I've lost 25 pounds and have totally changed my eating habits. I hit my target weight and am having no difficulty maintaining it. The bulges on the sides of my legs are gone! I'm eating healthy, exercising daily and feeling great.
I've lost 48 lbs over the last 5 months on Organic Liaison. I've been overweight my whole life and tried many fad diets only to lose some weight over a few months and inevitably "fall of the wagon" and regain the weight. Now it's sticking!!
I love the Rescue Me! I started out at 309 and following the program on-line and then I got my product about a week later. I am now at 281. I have lost 28 pounds in about 3 weeks and I feel great and energetic. Don�??t stop me now! The program is so easy it really fits in with my crazy life!
Thanks to the Rescue Me I don�??t have anymore sugar cravings. I lost 18 pounds and feel cleaner.
With OL I�??m getting smaller, I can�??t keep up with my new clothes. I keep getting a size then need a smaller size 2 weeks later! Good problem to have. My friends are telling me my pants are too big!
Tell you what - I'm on Organic Liaison. Yesterday I biked 15 miles and I walked 15 miles and I still have energy. This is unbelievable. I know it has to do with the OL products and this program.

We ALL Love the Warm Weather, But...
Before You Know it, You're Livin' Amongst the Flies!
You NEED The Bug Zapping Racket - It's Like an Electric Chair for Flies!
Not Only is it EFFECTIVE - It's a TON of Fun!
Swing - Connect - ZAP! No Guts, No Mess!
Awesome Racket Sends a Jolt of Electricity Through ANY Bug on Impact!
This is a MUST-HAVE Item For EVERYONE!
You Don't Have to Live Amongst the Bugs Ever Again!
Don't Let the BUGS Take Over!
There's nothing as satisfying as sitting on your couch and zappin' flies with an electronic tennis racket! Seriously!
While this thing looks like an ordinary tennis racket, it's anything but! This baby is a bug zapper! Just turn this bad boy on and swat yourself a fly, mosquito, ect, and ZAP!!! It's dead!
SOOOOO much more fun than a stupid old fly swatter - and man, that little "CRRRAAACKK" you hear when insect meets highly-charged metal is VERY satisfying!
OK, sure, it sounds like I'm maybe enjoying myself at a level that is just a bit south of healthy, but I just can't STAND all the spring and summer bugs that get into the house - I gotta get those kids to close the doors! Oh, and the flies! Don't they just drive you insane? Always buzzin' around your food, your kitchen, head, kids, dog, crawling on your TV set - it's misery!
Give 'em The SHOCK Treatment!
With this little racket in hand, you'll get an evil grin each time one of those little critters invades your close personal space! In fact, you may even start looking forward to those little buggers getting inside! A quick swing and POW! Flyin' into your house was their last mistake!
Plus, these are much cleaner to use than a regular swatter or some nasty bug spray!
Think about it - no more squished fly guts smeared all over your kitchen counter (window, screen, arm, face)! This ZAPS 'em dead - a much cleaner method if you ask me (and did I mention it was a LOT more fun?)
Simple & Safe to Use - Amazing Results!
How do they work? Just pop in a couple AA batteries, and press and hold the button at the side.
In a matter of seconds, it builds up a surprisingly high-voltage charge (don't touch the grate if you're pressing the button - trust me on that one)! Swat the bug and POP!! He's (literally) toast!
Fun and joking aside, these ARE safe to keep around the house: they lose their charge after you turn them off, so you don't have to worry about anyone accidentally getting a little shock.
I personally had a set of these last year and you'd be surprised how many people absolutely LOVED 'em! Without exception, every friend and family member that came over asked what it was, then went off hunting. So, these are either REALLY cool or I hang out with LOTS of bizarre people! Either way, you won't know till you try!
One CHEAP & Fun Way to Keep the Bugs at Bay!
Your price for all this bug-bustin' bliss? Just $12.97 and US Shipping is FREE! Hey, you just can't buy this much fun for that kind of money anymore! Grab yourself one - you'll LOVE it!
PS - These are a super popular item, and we expect the stock to dry up fast - don't wait around, order yours before they're gone!

Wall Street was the worry. It opened almost 100 points lower following bearish trading statements from Nokia and Lucent Technologies. A revival of accounting concerns also put the boot in. Both Qwest Communications and WorldCom admitted that the Securities and Exchange Commission is investigating their accounting methods.
Mobile phone giant Nokia fell at the first fence after warning that its struggling networks unit had been hit by weaker than expected markets for second-generation equipment in China and Europe.
US telecom equipment group Lucent then came crashing down after warning about second-quarter revenues because of sharperthanexpected declines in fixedline orders in recent weeks.
The highly-sensitive sector needed the warnings like a hole in the head. Colt Telecom bolted south and closed 6p down at 63p. Filtronic fell 45p to 377 1/2p, while Spirent lost 11p to 143p. mmO2 shed 3p to 65 1/4p, Cable & Wireless 9p to 228p and Vodafone 1 1/4p to 139p.
Britain's biggest electricity seller Innogy sparkled at 250p, up 4p. German utility giant RWE, which already owns Thames Water, refused to comment on reports in the German press that it may bid 260p a share. Sterling fell back to $1.4145.
Evidence in the latest British Retail Consortium survey that clothing had an excellent month in February helped trendy fashion retailer Next rise 7p to 965p. Ahead of next week's annual results, WestLB Panmure's Emily Shamma upgraded to buy and lifted her target price from 970p to 1050p.
Further consideration of the proposed sale of its First Sport chain to rival JD Sports (unchanged at 267 1/2p), helped Blacks Leisure jump 12p to 216 1/2p. There was gossip that a third party may launch a bid for Blacks.
Property group Chelsfield gained 11p to 297 1/2p after Merrill Lynch said buy, following the government's clearance of the proposed White City shopping extension.
Wembley, the track-based gaming company, rose 9p to 690p after selling Keith Prowse, the corporate hospitality business, to its management for £5.55m cash.
Buoyed by encouraging results and its decision to exit from dry cargo and port activities and reposition itself as a provider of marine services, James Fisher steamed 11 1/2p ahead to 120p. Chief executive Richard Buchanan bought 10,000 at 115p.
Aim-listed security systems group Screen eased 1p to 43p following a placing of 7.5m shares at 40p with institutional and other investors at 40p.
The £2.89m raised will provide working capital for Joyce-Loebl, the supplier of transport and defence technology solutions acquired in December.
ITIS Holdings, which sells traffic information and car navigation systems, accelerated 1 1/2p to 11 3/4p.
Altium Capital advised clients to buy after hearing it has won a deal to broadcast traffic information to the new BMW 7 series. Both the 5 and 3 series should be ITIS-enabled by September.
Harry Potter has worked his magic at Argonaut Games. Ten weeks of sales of the Harry Potter PlayStation game brought in royalty revenues of £5.4m, increasing group pretax profits to £4m in the six months to January, compared to losses of £3.1m last year.
Argonaut has started work for distributor Electronic Arts on a second Harry Potter game due out later this year. It advanced 4p to 55p.
Umbrella frame maker Chapelthorpe held at 6 3/4p. Chairman Charles Goodwin bought 100,000 shares and chief executive Brian Lecke 150,000 at 6 3/4p.
Telecoms tiddler Intelliplus buzzed 3/4p higher to 2 1/2p after ending a £50,000-per-month service contract which will save it £2m-plus over the next four years.

this is NOT at all meant to be a debate whatsoever. not in the least. not in the slightest. not in any way at all. i just want to know your reasoning for NOT circumcising. if you want a debate, use the search feature to the right and search for someone else's thread. i'm just looking for some feedback. consider this a school project.
if you want background, here it is. i thought my husband and i were on the same page about circumcising, but found out a week or so ago that we're not. we are team green, so while we've discussed before (and like i said, i thought we were on the same page), we have not had to make this decision.
my understanding through my research is that the trend in the US is moving towards not circumcising. one of us believes this is because parents are finding it harder to afford the procedure, while the other believes it is more of a cultural/personal preference push.
i want to ask you gals because you are the most diverse group of women i know who happen to be having babies at the same time as i am, so you would offer me the most reliable results, in my opinion. asking my friends is inappropriate (it's not my business what their sons' penises look like), so i'm not about to ask them.
so, would you mind taking this little poll? if your answer is "other", could you explain either via PM or in this thread if you don't mind? i don't want anyone to be uncomfortable with sharing their situation, but would like to be able to present him with this information. if i missed an obvious option, i'm sorry.

Have you heard about overtime??
This is not about Hot Rods but we've been watching this bill that the Bush administration is tryin to push through congress. Acording to this bill if you have certain professional certifactions or licences your emploryer will no longer have to pay overtime. I know we are very concered about this thing and I think everyone else should too!!
Now we've been following it but we've not seen very much in the press about it only a couple of times has a story been in the papers about it.
Any of you other folks know about this or have heard about it??
I am one of those on the bubble. If your base salary is over $65,000 per year, like me, you may no longer be entitled to the time and a half for overtime. I'll research the bill and get back to you.
First I've heard of it, and I'm probably just as aggrevated about it as you were when you first heard it. What a crock!!!
it's a major issue here where i live. its b/s there's millions of people who depend on overtime just to be able to pay there bills. far as i'm concerned bush is nothing more than a commie and the faster we get rid of him the better. he's killing us
he also wants to tell people what they can and can't listen to on the radio. oh and lets not forget how he got in to the national gaurd and did or didn't do his service but lands on a aircraft carrier running around in a flight suit like he just won world war 3.
i have as much respect for our presidents as the next guy but this guy is off kilter in a big way we need to get him out as soon as possible before he does something that no one can fix. the guy is just plain scary kerry has my vote.........
Ummmm!!!!....you want to get Bush out so we can have a Democrat in office....>???????????
(trying not to show my choice in politics)!!!!!
It's like Weimer saying he is upset no one is posting stuff about cars lately while he forgets what HR.com was like while puppypoop was around!!!!

Just for the record I did 17 months.
Anyone thinking of voting for this clown needs to consider the following. I did two tours with the 3rd Marine Division in Vietnam and nobody I ever heard of picked up hardware like this in four months. Maybe our friends in the press can apply some of the same nausea they are applying to 'W' and dig into this 'hero's' record.

Subject: John Kerry...You decide
Sent to me by an old shipmate....
I was in the Delta shortly after he left. I know that area well. I
know the operations he was involved in well. I know the tactics and
the doctrine used. I know the equipment. Although I was attached to
CTF-116 (PBRs) I spent a fair amount of time with CTF-115 (swift
boats), Kerry's command.
Here are my problems and suspicions:
(1) Kerry was in-country less than four months and collected, a Bronze
Star, a Silver Star and three purple hearts. I never heard of anybody
with any outfit I worked with (including SEAL One, the Sea Wolves,
Riverines and the River Patrol Force) collecting that much hardware so
fast, and for such pedestrian actions. The Swifts did a commendable
job. But that duty wasn't the worst you could draw. They operated only
along the coast and in the major rivers (Bassac and Mekong). The
rough stuff in the hot areas was mainly handled by the smaller, faster
(2) Three Purple Hearts but no limp. All injuries so minor that no
time lost from duty. Amazing luck. Or he was putting himself in for
medals every time he bumped his head on the wheel house hatch? Combat
on the boats was almost always at close range. You didn't have minor
wounds. At least not often. Not three times in a row. Then he used
the three purple hearts to request a trip home eight months before the
end of his tour. Fishy.
(3) The details of the event for which he was given the Silver Star
make no sense at all. Supposedly, a B-40 was fired at the boat and
missed. Charlie jumps up with the launcher in his hand, the bow
gunner knocks him down with the twin .50, Kerry beaches the boat,
jumps off, shoots Charlie, and retreives the launcher. If true, he
did everything wrong.
(a) Standard procedure when you took rocket fire was to put your
stern to the action and go balls to the wall. A B-40 has the
ballistic integrity of a frisbie after about 25 yards, so you put 50
yards or so between you and the beach and begin raking it with your
(b) Did you ever see anybody get knocked down with a .50 caliber
round and get up? The guy was dead or dying. The rocket launcher was
empty. There was no reason to go after him (except if you knew he was
no danger to you just flopping around in the dust during his last few
seconds on earth, and you wanted some derring do in your after-action
report). And we didn't shoot wounded people. We had rules against
that, too.
(c) Kerry got off the boat. This was a major breach of standing
procedures. Nobody on a boat crew ever got off a boat in a hot area.
EVER! The reason was simple. If you had somebody on the beach your
boat was defenseless. It coudn't run and it couldn' t return fire. It
was stupid and it put his crew in danger. He should have been
relieved and reprimanded. I never heard of any boat crewman ever
leaving a boat during or after a firefight.
Something is fishy.
Here we have a JFK wannabe (the guy Halsey wanted to court martial for
carelessly losing his boat and getting a couple people killed by
running across the bow of a Jap destroyer) who is hardly in Vietnam
long enough to get good tan, collects medals faster than Audie Murphy
in a job where lots of medals weren't common, gets sent home eight
months early, requests separation from active duty a few months after
that so he can run for Congress, finds out war heros don't sell well
in Massachsetts in 1970 so reinvents himself as Jane Fonda, throws his
ribbons in the dirt with the cameras running to jump start his
political career, gets Stillborn Pell to invite him to address
Congress and Bobby Kennedy's speechwriter to do the heavy lifting,
winds up in the Senate himself a few years later, votes against every
major defense bill, says the CIA is irrelevant after the Wall came
down, votes against the Gulf War, a big mistake since that turned out
well, decides not to make the same mistake twice so votes for invading
Iraq, but oops, that didn't turn out so well so he now says he really
didn't mean for Bush to go to war when he voted to allow him to go to
I'm real glad you or I never had this guy covering out flanks in
Vietnam. I sure don't want him as Commander in Chief. I hope that
somebody from CTF-115 shows up with some facts challenging Kerry's
Vietnam record. I know in my gut it's wildy inflated. And fishy.
Keep smiling,
I've worked as a staff engineer for 35 years, put in average 10hr days the entire time (often without a lunch break), been on call to go to the field 24/7 and never got any overtime. I don't think Bush's law will have much impact!
Companies have the ability to make any position salaried, with no OT. Why make it a law? Seems a little overboard, what's the economic crisis that this law will solve? Talk about micromanaging.
OK, talking about the elections is not what I had in mind for this, that will be seen at a later time.
I know allot of jobs can be salaried but Willys I have to disagree with the impact. There are allot of people that do depend on a certain amount of over time in each check. No I'm not one of them. Now I can see some flack coming from this but I'm going to use it as an example, I work a 24 on/24 off shift, now with travel time, shift changes, late calls and so on we figure we spend about 52% of our lives away from our families. Now during our brush fire season we can be called back and work for what ever time is needed so that can be added in also. If I work one shift over time thats two regular shifts and one over time (72 hours total at work). I make in pocket right at $396.00. Now is it right to ask me or anyone else to give up more time from wife and kids and loose the extra money too?? Sorry I just don't think its right.
I would LOVE to supervise the living arrangements for our governments officials for one year at the wage I make $24,000.00 this year IF I'M LUCKY, and I have been third shift 6 nights a week for 12 years and 1 month now.
My job is in the scope of the companywide 2% reduction and the most cost effective way my company has made it know it can do this without losing any personnel is to drop our sixth night which is overtime.
I am already losing the overtime EVERY time I use personal, FMLA, vacation, jury duty, or other paid time off.
I DO NOT like my job but I don't really mind the work, at one time I was asked to do other duties outside the main scope of my position and did them as my regular work was able to be rearranged to finish everything.
Now I only do the things listed on the two page job position description, and NOTHING else as I won't get paid level 6 pay for a level 6 job as long as my total time for the year does not equal 51% to demand the higher pay. I get paid at the level 2 grade out of 7, the only ones lower are part time and seasonal employees, And I am qualified for a level 6 position with paperwork to prove it.
Thanks boss. Thanks Mr. President.

I think everyone should look at the actual bill, before jumping to conclusions. OT pay would cover MORE workers than it does now! It would not be mandated in a very few high paying white collar jobs. A large number of jobs that do not qualify for OT presently,would now get OT benefits. Some types of farm work and other entry type jobs would now include OT pay. Collective bargaining agreements will not be affected. Just one more lie from John F(onda) Kerry to flim flam the lemmings.
Does poor John Kerry pay OT to his servants at the mansion? How 'bout the deck hands on his yacht????? The Boston Hearld had an article about how he was berating and screaming at the deckhands on his yacht on Martha's Vineyard........i wonder who they will vote for?
BT74 , exactly, your right
She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid. I've made a lot of special modifications myself.
Han Solo
I better just keep my mouth shut
This is El Crapo!
Kerry is on both sides of every issue. How can you believe anything he says?

Demon Jetting
I just built a 383 sroker motor with the following:
383 stroker from Eagle
10.5:1 compression
AFR-195 CNC ported heads with severe duty valves
Comp roller cam (Adv.282*/288*) 230*/236* @ .050", 544/555 lift w/1.6
roller rockers, 110* l/s
Hooker Ceramic Coated Super Comp headers
Eldebrock RPM Air-Gap Intake
Demon 750 carb (vac secondaries)
TCI-700R4 transmission
It is rich at idle and fouls the plugs
I I fashioned this motor after one of the magazine build-ups and they used 81/88 jets.
I down to 73 on the primary side and it still runs rich (black sooty plugs)
The carb came stock was with 76 on the primary side
I've replaced the power valve with no improvements.
If I keep "leaning" it out, I feel that something else is wrong
Any advice?
the idle circuit is controlled
by idle mixture screws and air bleeds not you
jets, there are 3 circuits primary, secondary,
and idle. the best way to tune your carb is
with an air fuel mixture gauge wich requires
an 02 sensore, weld in exaust bung, and gauge.
then you would first adjust your idle screws
(either 2 or 4 depending on carb) (adjust them
evenly), then you would hold open your primarys
(part throttle) to get a reading on the primary
circuit mixture-then you would adjust accordingly
finaly you holdsecondarys open-this is probably
best done on the freeway- get a reading and adjust
the cheap way to do this is with spark plug
readings (less accurate)
do a reading for each circuit (3 sets of plugs)
dont let the vehicle run on the circuits you
not testing in other words for idle circuit-
let it idle for a long time, turn it off and check the plugs - for primarys hold part throttle for a long time then check plugs - then wot for secondarys.
one trick I use is to hook a vacuum gauge to
manifold vacuum and start one screw at a time
i woul start them all @ 2-2.5 turns out, then
,starting with one screw lean it out till
vacuum just starts to drop then back it back off
1/4 turn, notice about where the screw is(how many
turns out) then do the same vacuum adjustment at all
four screws (demon carbs have a 4 corner idle
circuit (i think) ) the other 3 screws should be real close to the first one you set.
i believe demon carbs have screw in air bleeds-
don't touch them unless you cant get the idle
to lean out- if that is the case start stepping
up the air bleed size ( i wouln't mess with
them if you can help it)
try the vacuum adjustment then do a spark plug
reading on the idle circuit then adjust more
if necessary.

EPD warning residents about 'Door-to-Door' Solicitation
From the Eureka Police Department:
Due to a recent increase in complaints regarding aggressive and/or suspicious door-to-door peddling and solicitation, the Eureka Police Department would like to offer the following safety tips:
1. Ask to see a City of Eureka business license. The City of Eureka Municipal Code requires all peddlers and solicitors to have a city business license that is approved by the Eureka Police Department. The license allows peddlers and solicitors to work between the hours of 8:00am and 8:00pm.
2. Protect Yourself. Do not let anyone into your home. Do not give out personal information. Research the company before signing up for any service(s) or providing any monies, checks, or credit card information.
3. Call Eureka Police (707)441-4060. If a door-to-door peddler or solicitor is suspicious, aggressive, or does not have a business license, get a good description of the person and their vehicle (if applicable) and call the Eureka Police Department.

We are in shock after discovering our beloved Hunter passed away sometime this evening. My husband went out to feed Hunter and Chance and discovered Hunter in his dog igloo. He did not respond and Ed found he had gone to the Rainbow Bridge. He was almost 14 years old and has been a wonderful dog for the 13 years we were blessed with him. I am still not totally with it at this time as we did not see this coming. I thank the Lord for the wonderful life Hunter had and for the love and joy he has brought to us. I hope he knows how much he was and is loved. We will miss this precious boy more than I can tell you.
To Hunter ~ Mommy will love you forever, precious one. My heart is hurting now but I pray to smile and laugh when I think of all the fun we have had and the joy we have shared. Love NEVER dies.
Today is my 9th birthday! Oh boy. I know that it means extra loves and treats for me today.
Pippin and Petey sent me a yummy ice cream cone. They said, "Happy Birthday Hunter!! Wishing you one of the Best Birthdays Ever!! We hope you have a furtastic time and enjoy your very own special day. Enjoy this ice cream too! Happy Birthday, my friend!! Love and Pug Hugs, Pippin and Petey"
I received a pmail from Crystal with a purrty picture in it. She said, "We are sending this cake your way to help brighten up your special day. Happy Birthday."
Happy Birthday
Thank you for thinking of me on my 9th birthday. I am off to chase a ball or, at least, keep one from Duff.
Holy Cow! What in the world? I am DOTD! How did that happen? I am so shocked and surprised to learn about my pawsome honor. I am thrilled beyond words and for me that is hard to believe. Thank you Dogster HQ! I will be a good DOTD for you.
It seems that my mom gives so much time to my kitty siblings that often we (the doggies) get put on the back burner. We told mom that it was okay because she can't chew gum and walk at the same time. So balancing Catster and Dogster can be a real challenge for her. BOL.
River sent me a beautifur furever diamond. She said, "Hunter!! Congratulations on being chosen Dog of the Day!!! Yipppeeee!!! xoxo River"
Pippin and Petey sent me a cool baseball. They said, "Congratulations Hunter, for your Dog of the Day Honor!! You look furtastic on the main page of Dogster and deserve this reward. I hope you have a Great Day and have someone play ball with you!! Congratulations again. Love, Pippin and Petey" Petey is a new member of the furmily. Welcome to Petey.
Rocky and Sarge sent me a fun beachball. They said, "Hi Hunter, Congratulations on Dog of the Day! We think you are very handsome and are sending you a fun beach ball to play with! Rocky and Sarge "
Millie sent me a delicious steak. She said, "Congratulations Hunter! DOTD...you're pawsome! This honor deserves a nice, juicy steak...don't you agree? Enjoy your special day! Hugs, Millie"
Walker and his pawsome doggie and kitty furmily sent me a fun beachball. They said, "Congrat's Hunter on being Dog of the Day ! We all hope you have a great day ! Love & Wag's & Purr's, Walker & Family"
Abby sent me a delicious grape drink. She said, "Congrats, Hunter, on being Dog of the Day! You look like a fantastic pup!! Smooches, Abby"
Yoshi sent me a Forever Play Ball! He said, "Hi, Hunter! My name is Yoshi and I'm a Welsh Corgi of the Pembroke variety. I think that you are simply adorable! I'm sending you this tennis ball because you like tennis balls and to celebrate your being named Dogster Dog of the Day! Yay!"
Biskit and her pawsome doggie and kitty furmily sent me a pawsome blue ribbon. They said, "Hi, Hunter!Congratulations on being chosen as Dog ot the Day! Woo hoo! What an exciting and pawsome honor! You go, boy! We're very proud of you and we love you, buddy."
Angel Tippi and her furmily sent me a Forever Play Ball! They said, "Congrats on being DOTD Hunter!! Woofs and Slobbers to you."
I received a Golden Bone from Hunter. He said, "Congrats Hunter! On being Dogster's Dog of the Day! Hope you have a great day! Woofs, Hunter" Now, don't you think that he has a PAWSOME name?
Izzie and her furmily sent me a fun beachball. They said, "Hunter, congratulations on being dog of the day! Iz, Hammer and Sophie from Louisiana"
My pawrents have had a plateful lately. Hooch, my kitty brofur was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in February. His dianosis was complicated by pancreatitis and IBD and he finally became well enough to go to T4Paws for iodine treatment. Well, he got to come home yesterday after my pawrents went with my human brofur to get his biopsy at the hospital. My pawrents had to leave for my brofur's home at 5 AM today to have him back at the hospital by 8 AM. His procedure went well and the results are expected back soon. The doctor does expect that it is cancer but is hoping that it will be operable after treatment with chemo. The doctor is very hopeful and so are we. Next week my human brofur gets a PET scan and meets with his doctors the day afterwards to find out what treatment, if any, he will receive. The doctor told my pawrents that my brofur's tumor is 5 x 7 centimeters and that he suspects it will be a 2b or 3a class. If the chemo shrinks the tumor, then he will have to have his right lung removed.
My pawrents sadly learned last night that one of their dearest furiends was killed in a traffic accident yesterday. It seems that she was killed on the same road my pawrents traveled on to pick up my brofur Jim to take him to the hospital for his biopsy. It happened about 11 AM and, while she did not die instantly, she died at the hospital before her husband could reach her. Her name is Cecelia Pearce and she will be dearly missed. She was one of the sweetest persons you could ever meet and gave so much of herself to so many in need. In fact, she just got back from a week at the beach where she cooks each year for special needs children at a camp to which they go in the summer. And she was on her way to help relieve her sister from caring for their mother who had suffered a stroke about a month ago. My pawrents are just devastated over the loss of their friend.
Quincy and his pawsome furmily sent me a hot dog. They said, "Hot Dawg, you're Dog of the Day, Hunter! Congrats! We're glad we didn't miss it because we don't check on Dogster enough. Hope this honor cheers up your family! Love, Quincy and gang"
Scooter and his furmily sent me a yummy steak. They said, "Congrats on being Dogsters Dog of the Day."
Huntington sent me a nice blue ribbon. He said,"Hi!! Congrats on DOTD!! I'm so excited for you!! =^_^= Yay!! Hunter!! YAY!!"
Montana and Bailey sent me a beautifur furever rainbow star. They said, "Congrats Hunter on being DOTD!! You are a star today!! Hugs, Montana and Bailey"
Thank you to all the pawsome doggies and kitties who have helped make this a really special day for me with the pmails, rosettes and helped me celebrate this pawsome honor as Dogster's DOTD!

If you long for the days when you pumped quarters into a genuine faux-wood cabinet that housed your favorite video game, then here's a product from Martijn Koch that you are going to want in your living room. These are updated versions of those vintage cabinets that look a bit more space age in bright yellow or silver and house 27-inch 1920 × 1200 LCD screens.
They've also got two Sanwa 8-way joysticks, arcade buttons, a 6cm Sanwa arcade trackball and a single analog joystick. In addition, they have Canton speakers and a stereo T-amp, but they don't actually come with a computer. The folks that make them can take care of that problem by custom fitting it for a Raspberry Pi or Mac Mini at an additional cost.
See more pictures after the break…
Check out more of Martijn Koch's work here.

The Dreamcatcher: Gegard Mousasi
-The Dreamcatcher-
Gegard Mousasi(26-2-1), known for running through Dream's Middleweight GP, (hence the name The Dreamcatcher), is personally one of my favorite fighters. Mousasi fights so naturally, he is his own weapon. What he is able to do to opponents is like an art in its self. His fight style allows him to have a highlight reel of knockouts and submissions that you have never seen before.
The young fighter (only age 24), is one of the biggest prospects Mixed Martial Arts has seen in a while. And yes I did say prospect, Mousasi has another 8-10 years left in the sport. I think four years from now you will be able to see how much he has improved and how good he really will be. A fighter of his caliber with the experience he has had in fighting, as well as the fact that his MMA career has just begun, is quite frankly, a little scary.
Mousasi started hit Mixed Martial Arts training at a young age, doing Judo and Boxing. He then transfered over to Kickboxing which eventually lead him to MMA. Gegard was the 2006 Cage Warriors Middleweight Champion, The 2008 Dream Middleweight Champion, The 2008 Dream Middleweight GP Champion(not a typo, two different belts) and he is Currently the 2009 Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champion.
Be sure to watch out for Mousasi in the next few years. Maybe he will eventually be offered a UFC contract so he can be thrown in with the rest of the great 205 fighters that their organization has to offer.

One of my top 3 favourite fighters for sure. Not well known for his skill level, most of his opponents under estimate him... big mistake
My thoughts are pretty obvious on this one... {see sig}
anyone who can choke out babalu gets my respect

CFL light sockets
Sorry if this not worded correctly as I have no electrical background-The balcony light fixture in my condo was changed to take one of those 2 pin CFL lightbulbs. This has created a problem for me at CHristmas time because I used to use that fixture to conect my Christmas lights. How and is it even possible to change this fixture back to take an incandescent bulb.?
The two pin socket indicates this isn't a self-ballasted lamp (the screw-in type spiral ones are self ballasted), meaning that the power first goes to a ballast, and converts it to a much higher voltage to drive that 2-pin lamp. In other words, there's no way to use that for your christmas lights.
So, I guess to answer your question, it is possible to change the fixture back to accept an incandecent bulb, you just have to change to whole fixture!

Rusty Zinn: Chillen the Blues
While Rusty Zinn may be on the fast-track to blues stardom, it is his veneration for traditional Chicago blues that is his stock in trade. And with good reason. While still in his twenties Zinn had already toured and/or recorded with the likes of blues legend Jimmy Rogers, Windy City harp master Snooky Pryor, West Coast blues harmonicat Mark Hummel, and most notably Thunderbirds frontman Kim Wilson, who personally got Zinn his first record deal. That association led to Zinn's 1996 Black Top release Sittin' & Waitin', and his 1999 follow-up Confessin'.
Zinn's latest effort, The Chill, on new label Alligator, continues his fleet-fingered guitar stylings, while showcasing the now 30-year-old artist's growing songwriting skills. Guitar.com recently sat down with Zinn backstage at Buddy Guy's Legends in Chicago to discuss the blues, the guitar, and The Chill.
Guitar.com: How did somebody who grew up in Santa Cruz, California, in the age of MTV become interested in the blues?
Rusty Zinn: My brother. I already had a taste for rootsy music through my parents. My mom had a lot of 45s left over from when she was kid and the one's that I really remember I liked a lot were by Fats Domino and Elvis Presley. Then they used to play the Wolfman Jack radio show. My ears were perking up to rootsy music, do-wop, R&B, soul. When I was about 15, my brother brought home a Muddy Waters record, which pretty much flipped me out right then and there.
Guitar.com: What point did you start playing guitar?
Zinn: About a year-and-a-half later.
Guitar.com: And you got right into the blues stuff?
Zinn: Yeah, just jumped right on in.
Guitar.com: What were some of the first things you learned?
Zinn: 'Hideaway' by Freddie King. I used to sit down with that, and I really loved Buddy Guy. I used to sit down and kind flail away at that. I think I had some of his Chess stuff. I really liked his slow blues: Stone Crazy and 'Brokenhearted Blues? and stuff like that. I just sat there with the tape recorder in my room with the door shut so I wouldn't drive my parents up the wall. I found the notes and that's how I taught myself.
Guitar.com: You were strictly self-taught? You didn't take lessons?
Zinn: I tried to take a lesson from a local guitar player that was supposed to be a real hot shot. I was really enamored with the sound of Jimmy Rogers and Robert Junior Lockwood. That was what I really liked where the guitar was playing behind the harmonica. A lot of times there would be two guitars behind the harmonica and those guitars would be interweaving and snaking in and out around each other. That stuff really messed my head up. I really liked that. It was real subtle but I really dug it. I took some recordings of some Little Walter and Sonny Boy [Williams] stuff to this guitar teacher, paid him whatever was the hourly rate, and I ended up showing him stuff. It was useless. I got home and I was really frustrated. I thought this guy would unlock some secrets for me 'cause he was supposed to be a blues guitar master. He didn't show me nothing. So I had to go home and I said, 'Well, I'm just gonna buckle down and start trying to figure this stuff out for myself.'
Twelve years later, whenever I'm still trying to hear some of those things right, there's certain things that you hear different every time you listen to it and as your ears develop over the years, you might hear something a little differently. A lot of that has to do with the way those records were recorded too. Sometimes the fidelity is not the greatest. In a way that's kind of cool because I'm interpreting these styles. You get guys like Little Charlie [ed. note: Zinn is referring to blues guitar master Charlie Baty of Little Charlie and the Nightcats ? see Guitar.com's feature and video lessons with Little Charlie in our archives] and whoever else is influenced by the same kind of stuff. I think everyone of us has our own different spin or twist on a Robert Jr. Lockwood style or Louis Myers style, or Jimmy Rogers, because we all hear it differently. That's the beauty of it.
Guitar.com: Pick a few records in that style that you're talking about that you would recommend.
Zinn: One of the first blues records I ever had was called Chicago Bound by Jimmy Rogers. That's got loads of beautiful guitar from Jimmy and Muddy Waters. A lot of those recordings of Jimmy were recorded at the end of a Muddy Waters session, when Jimmy would take the forefront. Any Little Walter record is gonna have wonderful guitar, with The Best of Little Walter being the one to get if you wanna just go pick one up. Confessin' The Blues, that's a great Little Walter CD. Any kind of Sonny Boy Williamson, the second Sonny Boy Williamson: Rice Miller always does some real beautiful stuff, with Robert Jr. Lockwood and Luther Tucker. There's plenty more, but I think that's a good start.
Guitar.com: Can you give us an example, say for instance on a Little Walter record, the kind of guitar lines that are used. You mentioned weaving in and out behind the harmonica?
Zinn: A lot of these guys slide ninth cords around. There's endless variations on how to play beyond the harp and I think it would be kind of ludicrous of me to say that I've mastered it, but I've played with so many great harmonica players, old and young generation cats, that I've got a pretty good grasp on how to play all the different backup harmonica styles, and turnarounds too. I'm actually going to be co-authoring a book on turnarounds with Dave Rubin. I don't know when that is coming out.
Guitar.com: What are some of your favorites?
Zinn: I really like to sit at home and play the style people associated with Robert Johnson. There's so many, I can go on all day with that. When you're playing behind the harmonica, the turnaround is usually the bomb of the verse for the guitar because normally you should be pretty much staying in the background. But when it comes to the turnaround, a lot of times a lot of harp players won't even play the turn around. They just leave it to the guitar player to fill that hole ? except for Little Walter. He always had amazing turnarounds.
Guitar.com: How much of your set is more intricate fingerpicking, as opposed to more rocking flat-picked material?
Zinn: It used to be more like [intricate], but now we're in more of a contemporary bag on the live shows, depending on the room. If it's more of a concert type setting, where people are just sitting and listening, then I'd be more apt to play a few more of those kinds of blues, whereas if it's a dancing and drinking crowd, we're gonna keep the dance floor filled, so I'd probably use a straight pick all night, kind of stinging the guitar a little more.
Guitar.com: As you've traveled around the country doing your own music and things you've done in the past with Kim Wilson and some of the other people you've worked with, what's your favorite kind of gig or favorite kind of crowd?
Zinn: I really love playing for a listener, who will appreciate. An audience that's there to listen in a concert type setting. It seems like you can play a little quieter and a little deeper. But I also like playing for the more rowdy, dancing crowd. It needs to be both to keep my soul pleased. But I wish there was more of the concert type setting. It seems like you can relax and be more yourself on the guitar. You don't have to razzle-dazzle the audience quite as much, so it's a little more therapeutic for the soul.
Guitar.com: So as a front man beyond just a guitar player, do you have to mentally prepare differently to get out there on stage and be the frontman in the club?
Zinn: No, I know what to do. I'm ready to go. I would play in this room differently than in, say, there's this club in Seattle called the Jazz Alley and it's more of a jazz listening audience. They're sitting down at tables, eating dinner, real quiet, and they applaud after the solos. [In some places] you have to worry so much about keeping the dancers on the floor, that's where we would go more in a traditional bag and that's where I come from anyway. You don't have to worry about if we do too many slow blues, we're going to drive them all out. You just get up and play.

Wetland dispute continues after governor's veto
Doug Smith, Star Tribune
June 13, 2004 DOUG13
To conservation groups and the Department of Natural Resources, the 24-year controversial battle over the little wetland in Nicollet County is a righteous one, worth fighting to protect the state's vanishing wetlands and to uphold a law preventing their drainage.
But to the land-owning farm family and their supporters -- including several state legislators -- the DNR's actions are misguided, unfair and an attack on their property rights.
Two things are certain: The bitter dispute shows no sign of resolution. And there appears to be no middle ground.
The latest chapter in the saga was written earlier this month when Gov. Tim Pawlenty vetoed a claim approved by the Legislature that would have ended the dispute. Landowners Judy and Linda Bode would have received $27,000 for damages stemming from the DNR's destruction of a tile drainage system at the wetland a decade ago -- action taken under a court order to restore the wetland.
It was the second time in two years that Pawlenty has vetoed a settlement of the case OK'd by the House-Senate Claims Subcommittee, comprised of three Republicans and three DFLers. The governor said the courts have consistently ruled in favor of the state on the case and to pay the claim would be setting a "troubling precedent."
The Nicollet Conservation Club and the Fish and Wildlife Legislative Alliance agreed, saying it would encourage others to drain protected wetlands, which provide key wildlife habitat.
But the subcommittee's continued support for the Bodes' position -- three different subcommittees have approved their claim unanimously three times -- is bipartisan and based on an objective study of the case, say Rep. Bruce Anderson, R-Buffalo, and Sen. Wes Skoglund, DFL-Minneapolis, both subcommittee members.
They support the Bodes' contention that the wetland isn't large enough to fall under state jurisdiction and thus a state law prohibiting its drainage. And they say Pawlenty apparently doesn't understand the complex case and is getting bad advice from the DNR, which has opposed the Bodes' claims.
"We feel it's a total injustice what has been done to them," said Anderson. "We're fighting for what we think is right. The governor is only seeing one side of the issue."
Said Skoglund: "I don't believe in draining wetlands. If it was up to me, there would be no drainage allowed. Zero. But that's not the law. I think the DNR made a big mistake, and they have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars trying to cover up their mistake."
But Mark Holsten, DNR deputy commissioner and former legislator, said he has reviewed the long history of the case -- including numerous court rulings in favor of the DNR -- and is satisfied with the agency's position. The DNR is simply trying to comply with the law, he said.
Said Kent Lokkesmoe of the DNR's Waters Division: "We believe this is a properly identified wetland."
Complex case
The heart of the dispute is whether the Bode's wetland exceeds 10 acres. If so, it is protected from drainage by state law. There are two potholes in the disputed area, one on the Bodes' land and another on an adjacent farmer's property. The DNR, since 1980, has insisted both comprise one wetland of about 25 acres.
But the Bodes and a hydrologist they hired say there are two distinct wetlands separated by a strip of land. And the Bodes' is less than 10 acres, meaning they should be able to legally drain it. The family installed drain tile in 1981 while the issue was still in court; the DNR has twice gone in to disable it but says the wetland was never completely restored.
In recent years, it has been dry.
A key ruling came in 1986 when a District Court judge ruled that the wetland clearly exceeded 10 acres, but the judge didn't address whether the Bode portion should be considered separate, saying that issue "must yet be addressed and resolved."
Though there have been numerous court decisions over the years -- the case has gone all the way to the state Supreme Court -- that key issue has never been decided by a court.
"Despite many years of litigation over technicalities, the Bodes have never received a trial on the merits," said Ron Peterson, a hydrologist from Mendota Heights who owns an environmental consulting firm and was hired by the Bodes in 1994.
He determined that the DNR had erroneously designated the Bode wetland as exceeding 10 acres because it based its decision on an aerial photo taken in 1968 -- the second wettest on record for Nicollet County. Under normal conditions, the Bode wetland would comprise about 6.7 acres, he said.
But Lokkesmoe insists the DNR looked at other evidence, and that there is only one wetland. And it should be protected.
Though Peterson hasn't worked for the Bodes since 1997, he has continued to send letters of support to legislators and the governor. "I feel strongly that they [Bodes] have been unfairly treated," he said.
Legislators on the claims subcommittee have examined the issue and several have visited the disputed land, Peterson noted.
"A group of objective legislators saw it with their own eyes and made a decision, and [it] was vetoed by a governor who wouldn't even come out and look at it," he said. "It's pretty frustrating."
Compromise rejected
Last year, the Legislature's claims bill included the Bode claim, which would have paid them $26,000 from DNR funds and declared their wetland smaller than 10 acres, essentially giving them total victory.
Pawlenty, at the DNR's urging, vetoed it.
This year, the subcommittee tried to make the claim more palatable to Pawlenty and the DNR. Payment was to come from the state's general fund, rather than the DNR. And, as part of the deal, the case was to go before an administrative law judge to determine, once and for all, whether the Bodes' land should be included in the wetland designation.
The DNR again opposed the claim. One concern, Lokkesmoe said, was whether the judge would look at today's dry conditions or determine wetland status based on the historical perspective.
"I think they were afraid a neutral party would show they were wrong," said Skoglund.
Both sides expect the Bode claim to resurface next year. Lokkesmoe said the DNR has no immediate plans to go in and restore the wetland.
Meanwhile, the Bodes weren't talking last week about the governor's latest veto of their claim. But last year Judy Bode expressed the sisters' sentiments:
"We continue this fight because my family was served a great injustice."

I spoke with the service manager again. He assured me that it's normal operations for the car to stall under heavy braking and be really jerky in stop and go traffic. He's supposed to call Ford and let me know Monday, if he doesn't then I'm calling the customer support line. Apparently if you call the service line without discussing it with the dealer they can't do anything for you. So I want to make sure I've followed all the steps.
I took a co-worker for a ride yesterday to get lunch and I had never mentioned my car issues to him. We got caught in traffic and I had to progress slowly till we cleared the accident. The car jerked and bucked the entire time and my co-worker asked me if the car was supposed to do that. At least I'm not imagining things with the way the car is.

Why wouldn't you worry about it? A brand new car stalling is something you should be worried about.

Bobby McMahon and Eoin O'Callaghan preview the first four games of the Champions League round of 16.
BRAVO enjoyed it very much great insight.Michelle needs to get a credit.I don't know what it would take but if you could get Nick Webster in the future that would be great.if it works for you Bobby it would be great for future big matches and other important matches.two thumbs up!
[…] This post was mentioned on Twitter by Ogo Sylla, bobbysoccerrep. bobbysoccerrep said: http://tiny.cc/d3v7x Soccer Report Extra – The First Podcast – preview of the Champions League round of 16 – next week's games […]
Great podcast! I love it, why has it taken so long for you to only now think of this! Is this going to be available on Itunes for subscription? Bobby & Eoin, no striking duo better than the two of you in all of Europe. It's just a shame it's only 30mins long 😀
Any chance you can give the listener an option to save an mp3 format via RSS?
Love Michelle's intro (she's aces!) but let's try to refrain from guests who only bring cliches to the table (i.e Trecker or Webster). And perhaps a low volume CL theme song playing under you guys talking would make it a bit more "busy".
PS In Nesta and Silva, Milan have a very good CB pairing. IMO, Silva is the best all around young CB in the game and Seedorf should have enough in the tank to fill the link position.
As I said earlier, this is a good test to see what Dawson and Crouch are really made of. I wouldn't be surprised to see Arry start Pav with VdV behind him for the second leg.
I enjoyed it.
I think that 30 minutes is about right (podcasts that are much longer than that always feel like they are taking out a big piece of my day!).
I also like the new website format which makes it easier to track back to articles.
Yay, I've been waiting for a podcast with you Bobby. Thanks for the insight as always!
Nicely done gents, thanks!
YAY! In love with the podcast! Thank you thank you thank you for your insights.
Been watching Arsenal all season, and I have to say they have zero chance vs. Barcelona on Wednesday. Technically, I'll be able to watch, but do I really want to witness the slaughter? Probably not.
Great stuff Bobby… I enjoyed the podcast and excellent analysis from you and Eoin… It was crisp, clear, and the sound was very authentic. Expecting more to come…
Top class. This is by far the best podcast I've listened to. I'm normally not one for podcast, due to many being short on substance & lacking a professional quality, making the product hard to listen to i.e. boring. Not so with your work here. I was impressed with the presentation & content. I will continue to be a regular listener.
Well done Bobby, Eoin , Michelle & Luke
Ahoy there,
I queue up several podcasts and listen to them on my long commute and don't have much time in front of my computer. Having an iTunes download or even just downloading the podcast as an MP3 file would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much.
I was trying to access the podcast and was unsuccessful. I've never heard a podcast but have only heard of them. My computer is down at the moment and am using my iPhone. Any suggestions for the technologically challenged folk out there like myself?
Well done! Is the idea to do this once a week if the feedback is positive? Also, do you have a word or two to say about Richard Hastings' retirement. I am sure you have touched on it during the show, but I wasn't able to tune in. I didn't understand he was struggling with injuries, just that he was out of contract. Could he have helped, say, a new MLS team from his home province of BC?
Football Weekly.
Football Weekly extraaaa.
James Richardson.
Barry Glendenning.
Eat your hearts out!
Doesn't sound like you though Bobby.
Or maybe it's just my comp(?).
…and I like what Eoin has to say.
Might have a bit of competition there Bobby!
Bobby has a podcast! Now please put this on iTunes. I need to add this to all my other soccer podcasts that I listen to while exercising my dog at the offleash park.

Surprise! LoL I hate buying a car unseen, and that is why. I am the only mechanic I trust, and I wouldn't even trust me if I were someone else. The OEM water pump will last about 100,000 miles, you can go with one of those. I hope by "The good ish" you mean the BMW certified fluids. Castrol TWS is the only oil that's up to the task for that 3.2L. You may want to have the Sub Frame checked out... As far as the SMG, you'll need to do a soft reset when you first drive the car since the previous owner (from hereout referred to as dipshit) was running larger rims on it. Also you will want to get in touch with someone who has the GT1 software so you can get a complete scan of all the vehicles modules. You can even have the software upgrades done.
Congrats on your first ///M. Hopefully dipshit didn't mess it up too bad on you. Have a safe trip home and enjoy your car. Hit me up if you ever run into any SMG issues.

73 Commandments
Benedict of Nursia (480-550) spent his life building and reforming monasteries and developing a manual, known as a Rule, which would stabilize the life of monks. Yet, although his "Rule" was intended for monks, the sixth chapter gives instructions on how to live a godly life which would apply to all Christians. [Some are directed to those living in the middle ages, such as 17, when not everyone received this, while others are beautiful brief statements of wisdom, such as 50.]
From chapter 6 of 73 chapters of the Rule of St. Benedict: "(1) In the first place to love the Lord God with the whole heart, the whole soul, the whole strength. (2) Then, one's neighbor as one's self. (3) Then, not to kill. (4) Not to commit adultery. (5) Not to steal. (6) Not to covet. (7) Not to bear false witness. (8) To honor all people. (9) And what one would not have done to himself, not to do to another. (10) To deny one's self in order to follow Christ. (11) To chastise the body. (12) Not to seek after pleasures. (13) To love fasting. (14) To relieve the poor. (15) To clothe the naked. (16) To visit the sick. (17) To bury the dead. (18) To help those in trouble. (19) To console the sorrowing. (20) To hold one's self aloof from world ways. (21) To prefer nothing to the love of Christ. (22) Not to give way to anger. (23) Not to foster a desire for revenge. (24) Not to entertain deceit in the heart. (25) Not to make a false peace. (26) Not to forsake charity. (27) Not to swear, lest one swear falsely. (28) To speak the truth with heart and tongue. (29) Not to return evil for evil. (30) To do no injury, even more, to bear patiently the injury done to us. (31) To love one's enemies. (32) Not to curse them that curse us, but rather to bless them. (33) To bear persecution for justice sake. (34) Not to be proud. (35) Not to be given to wine. (36) Not to be a great eater. (37) Not to be drowsy. (38) Not to be slothful. (39) Not to be a murmurer. (40) Not to be a detractor. (41) To put one's trust in God. (42) To refer what good one sees in himself, not to self, but to God. (43) But as to any evil in himself, let him be convinced that it is his own and charge it to himself. (44) To fear the day of judgment. (45) To be in dread of hell. (46) To desire eternal life with all spiritual longing. (47) To keep death before one's eyes daily. (48) To keep a constant watch over the actions of our life. (49) To hold as certain that God sees us everywhere. (50) To dash at once against Christ the evil thoughts which rise in one's heart. (51) And to disclose them to our spiritual father. (52) To guard one's tongue against bad and wicked speech. (53) Not to love much speaking. (54) Not to speak useless words and such as provoke laughter. (55) Not to love much or boisterous laughter. (56) To listen willingly to holy reading. (57) To apply one's self often to prayer. (58) To confess one's past sins to God daily in prayer with sighs and tears, and to amend them for the future. (59) Not to fulfill the desires of the flesh. (60) To hate one's own will. (61) To obey the commands of the Abbot [the leader of the monks] in all matters, even though he himself (which Heaven forbid) act otherwise, mindful of that precept of the Lord: 'What they say, do; what they do, do not do' (Mat 23:3). (62) Not to desire to be called holy before one is; but to be holy first, that one may be truly so called. (63) To fulfill daily the commandments of God by works. (64) To love chastity. (65) To hate no one. (66) Not to be jealous; not to entertain envy. (67) Not to love strive. (68) Not to love pride. (69) To honor the aged. (70) To love the younger. (71) To pray for one's enemies in the love of Christ. (72) To make peace with an adversary before the setting of the sun. (73) And never to despair of God's mercy."

The great Doyle Brunson once remarked how No-Limit Hold'em was the "Cadillac of poker". The reference was that this game was tougher than any other in which to play. What Doyle actually meant was that "deep stacked No-Limit Hold'em was the Cadillac of poker". Back in Doyle's day, very few players played shallow or bought in for the minimum like they do now. However, deep stacked play is still relevant today and is still causing novices huge problems… but why is that?
Well in my opinion there are essentially two reasons as to why novices really struggle with deep stacked play.
The first reason is because No-Limit Hold'em is only a two card game unlike Omaha where you start with four cards. The natural follow on from this is that it is common knowledge that making a strong hand post flop is much more difficult than it is in Omaha. This means that everyone knows that big bluffs can take down a pot at any moment and any two cards can win on any one individual hand. So this makes it terribly easy for even novice players to attempt to bluff at pots that if they had more experience… they would see that they were better to fold.
There is a greater propensity to get yourself into trouble in a game with only two starting cards where it is common knowledge that you likely haven't got a pair in your hand and flopping a pair is only done around one time in three. Big hands are hard to make and so bluffs work more often. However, bluffing is a skill and when you bluff, you are risking a significant sum of money which in turn means that your success ratio needs to be high and this is where the skill part comes in… however it is skill that is something that novices don't yet have.
The second reason as to why novices get themselves into trouble in deep stacked No-Limit Hold'em is because one mistake can be all it takes to lose your entire stack. Imagine an hypothetical situation where you won 49 pots where each pot was $2. This totals $98 but yet what if the 50th pot was a huge loss that cost you $120? You are behind by $22 after 50 pots despite winning 49/50 of them for a strike rate of pots won to pots lost of 98%.
The previous hypothetical example highlights just why No-Limit Hold'em, when played with a deep stack, is so tough to handle for novice players. One moment of madness, indiscipline or lack of knowledge is all it takes to wipe out hours of work. The bottom line is that if you lack experience, then you need to treat the "Cadillac of poker" with the utmost respect. If you don't, then it will almost certainly come back and bite you in the place where you least want to be bit and that's in your pocket.


text: Season 2006/2007 Record 40-42 Team's season left dual impression. On one hand the team finally made it to the playoffs. However, if you look at making the playoffs as the stepping stone to the future, Magic has disappointed. After showing its best and collecting wins quickly before the New Year, Brian Hill's team became to show weaknesses. Howard showed his offensive one-sidedness. Turkoglu was playing as an independent contractor. And Jameer Nelson never became that dreaded point guard that Orlando fans had dreamed about. They got swept in the first round by Pistons. Offseason Draft Nothing really to talk about here as Magic traded their first-round pick to Pistons. One of the past team draftees is still in Europe and doesn't look like he's every going to join the roster. Key Trades Signed: Rashard Lewis. Orlando signed this tall and thin (read injury-prone) sniper, paying incredible, even by NBA's liberal standards money. Will the team get the return on the investment? Left: Grant Hill and Darko Milicic Offseason grade: C Season 2007/2008 Last season, well at least in the first half, the team played pretty decent half-court offensive scheme (thanks to Grant Hill) and played organized defensively (third best opponents shooting percentage). Now without Grant and Darko team loses a lot on the defensive end. Shorter guards like Nelson, Arroyo, and Dooling are going to be struggling against Smush Parker/J-Will duo. And their division also has players like Gilbert Arenas and Joe Johnson. What will be effective this year with the addition of Lewis? No matter how you look at it, Magic's success will primarily depend on how Rashard will fit in with his teammates. Orlando does not have many stars and Lewis will have to produce in order for team to win. He is tall and quick with an excellent jump shot and should benefit from Howard's play down low. However, Howard would have to see the game and react quicker to the double-teams. He struggled with turnovers all year long. And in order for Howard to be more effective, Lewis has to produce and attract more defensive efforts from the opponent leaving Howard to operate under the basket. Now more on Howard. He is shooting 60% from the field. Lets look at how does he arrive at that high rate of success and if there is something that is a cause for concern. He attempts shots from the mid-range distance about 17% of the time (in comparison Duncan and Boozer get half of their points from there; Garnett, Jermaine O'Neal, and Elton Brand – 2/3) and he hits them at 28% clip. Every sixth his shot attempt is blocked because he can't shoot jumpers and doesn't get high off the ground. Everything else is dunks, offensive rebounds, and layups. That's why his field goal percentage looks so high. His strongest and the only one-on-one move in his offensive arsenal at this time is a turn move where he dribbles with his left hand and uses right to ward off the defender. Like so: Once the defender is behind Howard throws the ball through the hoop. This is an effective move, but not against everyone because it is all so redundant You are going to hear a question posed by many basketball fans – "How about Shaq? Didn't he reach success without a shot?" When he was 21, O'Neal averaged 30 points per game and he did it several times a season against the likes of David Robinson, Patrick Ewing, and Hakeem Olajuwon. Howard, being the same age, averages 17 points and he has to go against the likes of Brandon Haywood and Nenad Krstic. I don't think Howard will ever be like O'Neal. He doesn't have that size and that type of strength. As one Russian sports forum member rightly noticed: players like O'Neal only come around once every 100 years, and players like Howard once every 10 years. Dwight needs some type of a shot to be successful. Magic also lost one its starters to the season ending surgery. Battie is out and the team is going to struggle to replace him. This leaves Orlando even smaller all around. Note of importance Stan VanGundy the new coach. He left his last job under quite unpleasant circumstances – he was just told to get out of the way as not to prevent Pat Riley from doing the job. How much did it hurt his self-esteem? What can he get out of Orlando's team this season? Who will be coach's favorite and lead the team? I guess we'll get all the answers in the next 10 months. Bottom Line 6th-9th place in the conference look about right. Playoffs – maybe Championship - no

In Polemics, there are withering critiques and witty demolitions of the so-called war on terror, the invasion of Iraq, the bombardment of Serbia and the pantomime of parliamentary democracy, using the example of the French presidential elections of 2002. There is a delightful Swiftian satire on the Islamic headscarf affair and a denunciation of the racism that led to the riots in the banlieues late in 2005: 'We have the riots we deserve.' Badiou sees France as a politically 'sick' and 'disproportionately abject country' whose political reality is located not in the endlessly invoked republican ideal of the Revolution, but in the reaction against it. For Badiou, France is the country of Adolphe Thiers's massacre of the Communards, Pétain's collaboration with the Nazis and De Gaulle's colonial wars. In this context, the victory of Sarkozy is an affirmation of Pétainism and Le Penism, and a continuation of France's long war against the enemy within.
