Apparently to blame for the troubles of everyone else. Expected to stand there and take abuse from everyone else because he deserves it for starting slavery and apparently everything else that's bad. Let's review some history here kiddies. Anglo-saxon whites are almost exclusively responsible for everthing that all the other whites get blamed for by minorites. Anglo-saxon whites and western europeans were the vast majority involved in slavery and colonization not to mention the Spanish(who seem to receive no hate for it...hmmm) and they have caused ignorant people to blame all white people for the things some did. There is another huge fucking chunk of the "white man" in europe that has been through its own private stuggles its own vicious slaveries, and we do not generalize the blame. Nor do we blame everyone for our own fucking problems. DEAL WITH IT.
A black guy in an all-white school becomes the local celebrity. A white man in an all black school becomes the local shooting range. Explain that. Check out the names of all the biggest "evil" politicians, they are mostly western-european.
My ancestors and those of many others had nothing to do with slavery, they don't control the government and oppress all minorities. They died in concentration camps and fighting communists. They live in poverty. They have balls they don't blame others for the past and for their own problems. |
2. | white man | ||
A man who is white.
To the liberal, a white man is useful for only one thing: Paying taxes to support everyone else. To the liberal, a white man is the source of all racism, sexism, and religious trouble. No white man with any sense would ever vote for a liberal. Liberals offer no entitlements for white men.
3. | white man | ||
Well well well, its sad to think that ethnic minorities will constantly abuse the ordinary white man, yet pathetically brag on about Racism whenever he says something to retort. In fact, if it wasnt for the white man, there wouldnt even BE a united states of America, so i dont see where the logic is that it should be owned by black people. Why cant you all just shut up and let other people get on with their fucking lives. Its not "gangsta" or "cool" in anyway to be racist, so stop being stupid hipocrites and let the world be. White man. Why does the term even exist? why cant we all be human?? Twats.
4. | white man | ||
Me. I am a white man, I goto work, I got many friends of different ethinicities. Oh I forgot I am caucasian. I guess I am a white man! I am a white man, not an evil person... you want an evil man go blame someone who you know has done something wrong!
5. | white man | ||
The little guy who has watched his own race cause chaos and death across the world for the past 500 years and has gained nothing but shit off everyone.
Not every white guy wants to kill every black, chinese, asian, (native) american or australasiain on the planet, it's just the greedy assholes in command and a low-intellect army who follow anything for money who invade, murder and conquer. The white man is the guy who watches this bullshit and sits there, able to do nothing and recieves hate. That white man is me. I have never harmed anyone because they are a different race, insulted them because they are a different race or done anything which could be considered racist. Then I read some of these defenitions. The simplicity of the whole thing is this: You get assholes in every race, religion or nationality, but you get an unusually large number of assholes who are white. Please remember that not all of us took part in the slave trade, the massacre of the jews, the start of the war on the gaza strip. It is key individuals who are to blame for these monstrosities, don't blame all of the white people, blame those key individuals. 'It ain't about black or white cuz we human,
I hope we see the light before it ruined' -Tupac Shakur The greatest and most influentual soul who graced his presence on this earth |
6. | White Man | ||
Stand up guy...pillar of society, hated and patronized by many (mostly african americans) because of his integrity and loyalty to doing doing what is right... that guy whom I loaned money to just paid me back, he could have easily ripped me off, but he decided to be a white man about it...
7. | White man | ||
The White Man is a super hero who has the most powerful jizz in the world. His sperm count is so massive and full of power that if he gives even the slightest glance at a woman, they will become impregnated. His name cums from how much jizz he really has. He has so much jizz that he himself is walking around pale as a ghost due to his large jizz content. Boy: "Hey did you hear Becky is pregnant?" Other boy: "Yeah I'm pretty sure that The White Man looked at her."

Happiness is a state of mind or feeling characterized by contentment, satisfaction, pleasure, or joy. Happiness comes from deep within, and not from people, situations, or circumstances. According to Researchers from Harvard Medical School and the University of California, San Diego: "When an individual becomes happy, the network effect can be measured up to three degrees. One person's happiness triggers a chain reaction that benefits not only his friends, but his friends' friends, and his frien …

Find out how to "sell yourself" on the interview. Career advisors can provide valuable advice and tips on how to prepare for and communicate your skills during a job interview, how to dress for interviews and what questions may be asked during an interview. Attend an interview seminar and schedule a mock interview to learn more.
Prepare for Your InterviewsAssess Your Strong Points
Market YourselfAfter completing the above steps, match your strengths with those needed for the position you are seeking. The qualifications and qualities desired are the ones you must stress that you possess during your interview.
Show Or Explain How You Have Demonstrated These Skills An interviewer will ask questions that will require you to give examples of how you have used certain skills and displayed certain qualities. Be prepared with short descriptions of each experience. Just stating that you possess desired qualities is not enough! Regardless of whether or not you are asked, give specific, clear and concise examples of your performance. Some qualities they may be interested in are leadership, decision making, organizational skills, problem solving, interpersonal skills, etc. This style of interviewing, "Behavioral Interviewing" is commonly used today. The premise is that your past behavior is the best indication of your future behavior. Your answers will be based on fact, not speculation.
Research The Organization It is not enough to just read the information given to you. You must study and analyze it. Keep in mind during this process that you must ask how you can be an asset to the company. Information about the company may be available at the University Career Services, on the Internet, in the library, through people you know, or alumni of St. John's who are employed at the firm.
Prepare A Variety Of Questions That You Would Like To Ask After researching the company, check to see if there are any areas that you would like clarified. The questions you ask should be original. They should be about a variety of areas. The questions you ask must not be answered in the recruitment literature that you are expected to know beforehand.
Be Enthusiastic Demonstrate to the interviewer that you are interested in the job and in the company. Explain how you have prepared for the position desired. Always accentuate the positive about yourself, your education, and your experiences. Maintain good eye contact and appropriate body language. Look at the interviewer, but do not stare the interviewer down. Sit in a relaxed but interested manner. Let your body language communicate that you are truly interested.
Practice Your Presentation While spontaneity and honesty are important to all interviewing, direct answers presented in a logical manner are valued. Communication skills are valued by recruiters, therefore, make sure that you demonstrate your ability to communicate clearly, logically, and with self assurance. Schedule a videotaped Mock Interview through the University Career Services to 'see' and 'hear' how you interview, before the real interview.
Act Relaxed And Prepared Although it is normal to be somewhat apprehensive about any interview, it is important that you appear calm and collected. Companies desire people who can handle stress effectively. If you appear nervous and afraid this may work against you. Take deep breaths and exhale slowly, and try to recall something positive or relaxing.
Thank The Interviewer At the end of the interview shake the person's hand and thank him or her for spending this time with you. Ask for a business card and write a thank-you letter that same day. Remember good etiquette is highly valued. There are many other comments which can be made about the interviewing process, but, like all interaction between two people there are not set rules or procedures which will guarantee a successful outcome. The best advice anyone can offer is . . . "Be yourself, but know yourself."

In full disclosure, I opened one flap of the box and saw that the bedding was mocha... not "taupe" and closed it back it. The box is labeled Mushroom and the manufacturer only makes this in 2 colors: lavendar and mushroom. So, I guess that means that mushroom should really be taupe. And their version of taupe is really more like mocha (light brown).
We love this, but returned it because the color wasn't right with our paint.
I think this comforter set is super classy and fabulous for this price point. I am really loving the purple for my bedroom, it looks great with grey. It is very warm also! I have a full matress and it fits juts fine on it. The bedskirt is also nice and stays in one place. The three extra pillows are of great quality and look very nice with the comforter.
This set arrived and I immedialty put it on our bed. It is gorgeous! I kept going in my bedroom and staring at it and my husband was just as impressed. He stills says how much he loves it. It also fits with room to spare on our King sized bed. I got a great deal thanks to Overstock and their coupons!
I am very happy with this comforter. The color is great. And has a nice heavy feel to it. Matches wonderful with my bedroom colors. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase
My friend came in the room and loved it. I think it is a beutiful bedset but it feels cheap for some reason. Also the tufts come apart if you get on your bed and your knee puts pressure on it. My croscill bedset feels like a better quality than this blanket and I have had it for over 10 years.
The picture looks better than the actual comforter. I think the comforter is rather on the cheap side. I think I may return it.
I wondered if this set would be a little to purple for me, but it is a rich shade of plum and perfect with my silver and gray guest room. The accent pillows made the perfect finishing addition. True to color and true to expectations.
Very pretty and I actually kept it when I should have sent it back. It was obvious that someone else had owned it before me and then had sent it back. It didn't take me too long to figure out why. All of the stitching comes out every time you make the bed. My mom spent 5 hours reinforcing all of the stitches or I would have sent it back. It is very pretty though and I get lots of compliments on it.
We order this comforter set due it's elegance. However, the tufts were not secured well and they began to "pop" even when I was gently making the bed for the first time. Additionally, the material is not soft and is itchy. I wanted to love this set but I will be returning it.

Stocks Mixed; Dow Closes Above 14,000
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Major U.S. stock averages traded mixed Tuesday as Apple(AAPL) shares tumbled after CEO Tim Cook spoke at a technology conference and investors awaited President Barack Obama's State of the Union address Tuesday night.
Apple fell 2.5% after Cook, speaking at the Goldman Sachs Technology and Internet Conference in San Francisco, dismissed hedge fund manager David Einhorn's lawsuit against the tech giant as a "silly sideshow."
Apple's plans for its $137 billion cash hoard came under attack last week by Einhorn, who's been asking shareholders to fight against the company.
In addressing questions about the company's product features, Cook said the only thing Apple will never do is make a "crappy" product.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed up 47 points, or 0.3%, to 14,019. The blue-chip index reclaimed its position above 14,000 for the first time since Feb. 1.
Breadth was positive, with winners outnumbering losers 23 to seven. Top advancers included Bank of America(BAC) , Home Depot(HD) , Alcoa(AA) and Hewlett-Packard(HPQ) .
The biggest percentage blue-chip laggards were Coca-Cola(KO) , Cisco(CSCO) and Pfizer(PFE) .
Coca-Cola posted fourth-quarter earnings of 45 cents a share, topping estimates by a penny. Revenue came in light at $11.46 billion, below the average analyst estimate of $11.54 billion. Volumes fell in Europe, reflecting the ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty and weak consumer confidence across the region. Shares fell 2.7%.
The S&P 500 was up 2 points, or 0.2%, to 1,519. The Nasdaq was down 6 points, or 0.2%, to 3,186 as Apple shares skidded.
Most sectors in the broader market were in the green, led by capital goods, financials, conglomerates and consumer cyclical shares. Only the technology sector closed in the red.
Volumes totaled 3.38 billion shares on the New York Stock Exchange and 1.78 billion shares on the Nasdaq. Advancers outpaced decliners by a ratio of 1.8-to-1 on the Big Board and 1.6-to-1 on the Nasdaq.

Each year, over 500 THOUSAND kids in the US are born without a Dad's name on their birth certificate. Learn more and how to help them
Research shows 4 out of 10, an estimated 24,000,000, U.S. children are growing up in father-absent homes. Children from fatherless homes are more likely to live in poverty, drop out of school, use/abuse drugs and alcohol, become teen parents commit crimes and become incarcerated.
41% of the 4,100,000 kids born annually are born out of wedlock. An estimated 570,000 of those babies do not have a father's name on their birth certificate. That is more than one per minute, every minute of the year. For the record, just because a dad's name is on the birth certificate, doesn't ensure he will provide financially or be present physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Father absence cuts across all ethnic and socioeconomic groups and is prevalent in urban, suburban, and rural areas. Contrary to popular belief, there are more white children growing up in father absent homes across America than any other group.
Father absence isn't someone else's problem, it's everyone's problem. When kids don't reach their full potential they become dependent on government programs, which translates into higher taxes and a variety of other social problems.
TEAMDAD, a social business venture, was created to inspire and equip men to be great Dads. Honor your father with a Great Dads Coin and support kids without dads. Check out the video below that explains the coin, and get one here.

An Anderson County councilman has settled a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the family of a woman who was killed when several cars ran over her in November 2010.
Councilman Eddie Moore has not commented on the settlement.
An autopsy found that Elizabeth Walsh was killed by the first of several vehicles that struck her along a four-lane stretch of Highway 81 near Masters Drive. Walsh was walking home from grocery shopping and was about 100 yards from her home when she was killed.
An autopsy found that Walsh was killed by the first of several vehicles that struck her on a four-lane stretch of South Murray Avenue. Jessie Lee Oliver Sr., who was 64 at the time, was driving the first car that hit Walsh. He pleaded guilty to driving under the influence.
DUI prosecutor Jennings Byford said if a driver who is under the influence is involved in an accident in which they are not at fault, they are only charged with regular DUI.
Byford told WYFF News 4 Walsh was in the middle of the road when she was hit and wearing dark-colored clothes.
The Highway Patrol said Moore was driving his SUV behind Oliver's car. Moore said he didn't see Walsh get hit, and by the time he saw her in the road, he could not avoid hitting her.
A third and fourth car also hit Walsh.
The insurance companies of the first and second drivers settled with Walsh's family before a $5 million wrongful death claim was filed against Moore. No claim was filed against the fourth driver.
The Walsh family's attorney, Tom Dunaway, told News 4 that Moore committed fraud by "trying to cover up evidence."

International Bridges Impact Local Economy
By Marco Grajeda
Las Cruces, NM – On a daily basis, an average of almost forty-thousand vehicles enters the United States, using one of the four international bridges in the El Paso, Texas area. Recently, wait times at these bridges have hit two to three hours for travelers during peak periods--surpassing the San Ysidro port, south of San Diego, which gets more traffic and has fewer lanes. As KRWG's Marco Grajeda reports, some border experts say the long lines are taking a toll on the local economy.

Will I hit their planned obsolescense "feature" with my 2010 copy this year? (having trouble finding mention of that on Quicken's site) I've read some pretty bad reviews about the 2013 version on Amazon and elsewhere, though those seem to be reviews of an early release that had lots of bugs. |

First, it's a step in some challenge found on the Internet, where we get an application and a file. The application must be feed with that file and a password (the password is the flag for the challenge).
So, after reversing the application, I found that the algo used is RC4 with a small change in the "S" array, which was not initialized to the identity but initialized to S[i]= 0xFF -i .
The information I get from the challenge is that the file once decrypted has the INTEL HEX FORMAT which has a quiet regular format (like the : at each line).
At this point, I get some information about the keystream (i.e a partial keystream). My question is there some relation between the element of the keystream, and is it possible to reconstruct the total keystream from my partiel keystream?
All what I found on the RC4 was for attaking WEP, based on the fact that it use the same (IV+key) to encrypt multiple packets, and I don't think it's possible to use this in my case.
thank's for your help.

Soul Men/I Thank You (plus bonus tracks)
CD (Item 603908) Stax/Edsel (UK), 1967/1968 — Condition: New Copy
Two classics from this legendary team – packaged here with bonus tracks too! First up is the self-titled Sam & Dave album – one of the best ever albums by this incredible soul duo! Sam & Dave may have been one of the bigger names on the 60s scene, but they also had a sheer raw soul approach that blew away most of their contemporaries – a way of trading vocal lines then combining them that infused their songs with a tremendous amount of power – and which gets past any easy cliches you may have about Atlantic or Stax soul of the time! The album's virtually a blueprint for countless other acts that cropped up to steal the duo's style in years to come – but it's still one of the best of the bunch, and almost without equal. Titles include "Soul Man", "May I Baby", "Hold It Baby", "I'm With You", and "Rich Kind Of Poverty". I Thank You is a killer by Sam & Dave – recorded in Memphis with crack work by the team of Isaac Hayes and David Porter, and unfortunately a record that was recorded by Stax, but stolen by Atlantic in their 1968 takeover of the label! Sam & Dave are at the height of their powers here – hitting on all burners with that tight funked-up southern soul style that made them one of the most popular acts of their generation – and although the pair may be familiar, they've got an energy that never fails to amaze us on a record like this! Titles include "I Thank You", "Don't Turn Your Heater On", "Love Is After Me", "Talk To The Man", "Don't Waste That Love", "Wrap It Up", and "You Don't Know What You Mean To Me". 2CD package features 9 bonus tracks – including "I Can't Stand Up For Falling Down", "Soothe Me (live)", "This Is Your World", "Can't You Find Another Way Of Doing It", "Still Is The Night", "Soul Sister Brown Sugar", "Come On In", "Born Again", and "Get It". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

"Ergonomic shape and angle for ease of telling time." – Denis Guidone
TOWARDS is as unique in construction as it is in style. The 40mm case is tilted toward the wearer at an angle making Towards a true ergonomic timepiece with both large numbers and an easy to view date box. To emphasize the re-orientation, the number twelve is printed on the glass, the crown placed below it on the case, and the date calendar placed at the 4 o'clock position.
This unique and contemporary timepiece from Italian designer, Denis Guidone has a seamless band that connects to the body of the watch with no visible lugs or connections. Characterized by this slanted case is a 20 degree shift in the position of the number twelve. The face is simple and elegant. Even during the flurry of fingering a keyboard, time is visible at a glance making the need to twist the wrist a thing of the past!
Towards' unique features include the number "12″ painted on the underside of the lens, the indices painted and attached on the dial and the crown (that which adjusts the time) off center making Towards true "architecture that you can wear".
Towards measures 40mm in diameter (1.57″) and 10.0mm (0.39″) high at the lowest point of the case (remember the case is angled like a ramp!) and 14.79mm (0.58″) high at the highest point. The IP plated stainless steel case is complemented by a 20mm leather band with black buckle.

What Are ANSI Lumens?
An ANSI lumen in a particular unit of measurement for the light output of a projector. A lumen (lm) is a unit for measuring luminous flux, or the perceived output of a light source. ANSI is an acronym for the American National Standards Institute. As such, an ANSI lumen is a lumen measured in the specific method defined by the American National Standards Institute.
In 1992, ANSI defined a method for measuring the lumen output of projectors (both film and video). The method involves adjustments of brightness and contrast, measurements of a white field at nine designated spots on the screen, and the averaging of the measurements multiplied by the screen area.
The ANSI method for measuring lumens is very accurate and is therefore used in the marketing of projectors. Manufacturers almost always list the ANSI lumen output of their projectors as a point of comparison.
The lumen is defined as 1 lm = 1 cd·sr = 1 lx·m2 ("cd" is candela, "sr" is steradian, "lx" is lux and "m" is meter).
In the marketing of home theatre projectors, ANSI lumens can be somewhat misleading. The ANSI lumen measurement represents the optimum potential of the projector and does not reflect variables such as screen size, screen material, ambient light and viewer eye fatigue. Some projectors feature video optimization technology which can skew the ANSI lumen rating.
Lumens measure luminous flux, or light that is perceived by the human eye. This is not to be confused with radiant flux, which measures the total power of emitted light. The human eye is more sensitive to certain wavelengths of light.

Abstract | Since the publication of W.E.B. Du Bois' (1996 [1899]) The Philadelphia Negro, scholars have conducted neighborhood studies to examine a range of social issues including crime, homelessness, and concentrated poverty. The present ethnographic study continues this sociological tradition in order to examine how cultural heterogeneity—the multiplicity of cultural beliefs, behaviors, and practices—affects the educational outcomes of male teenagers in a low-income neighborhood. The purpose of this study is to examine cultural heterogeneity vis-à-vis the sources and influences of neighborhood social and cultural capital. In other words, when teenagers are not in school, where, with whom, and for what purpose do they spend their time, and how do the exchanges influence educational outcomes? The author's argument is twofold: First, the neighborhood houses vast amounts of cultural heterogeneity that explain inequitable educational outcomes among teenagers. Second, a teenager's access to and practice of dominant social and cultural capital will increase his likelihood for positive academic outcomes and the development of a college-going identity, defined as an individual's ability and willingness to navigate diverse social worlds. ❧ The author's goal is to illustrate the manifold pathways to and away from postsecondary education that African American and Latino teenagers encounter as a result of growing up in a low-income neighborhood. The study, using a surplus perspective, emphasizes the diverse forms of capital teenagers possess, limited forms of capital the educational system values, and the cultural mismatch that occurs as a result. The study tests and refines a theoretical framework that better accounts for and explains cultural heterogeneity in the 21st century. |

REGINA -- The Saskatchewan Roughriders may not know yet where Tearrius George will line up on their defence during the 2013 season, but that may be a good thing for the CFL team.
The versatility of the veteran import defensive lineman is one reason why the Roughriders re-signed George, a move the team announced Tuesday. The product of Fayetteville, N.C., was eligible to become a free agent Feb. 15.
Defensive end Odell Willis also can hit the free-agent market next month and he reportedly has garnered some interest from the NFL. With Willis' future in Saskatchewan up in the air, getting George back in the fold was important to the Roughriders.
"Tearrius is an interesting piece to the puzzle on our defensive line," general manager Brendan Taman said Tuesday during a media conference at Mosaic Stadium. "He can play inside, he can play outside, he's very tough, he's very strong and he was a nice signing for us because he can bring some flexibility.
"To lose both (George and Willis) wouldn't have been good, let alone one of them. To have (George) back is a nice stability factor."
The 6-foot-4, 277-pounder is preparing for his third season with the Roughriders. In 18 regular-season games in 2012, he recorded 18 defensive tackles and one fumble recovery, and also tied Willis for the team lead with six sacks.
George turned 30 on Dec. 3, but the Roughriders believe he still has tread left on the tires.
"You always worry about it when they get to that point (30 years of age), but the way he's playing, he's actually probably coming off one of his best years that he has played in a long time," Taman said. "He hasn't shown any tailoff yet."
George couldn't be reached for comment.
In addition to announcing they had re-signed George, the Roughriders also revealed they had released import safety James Patrick, non-import kicker Sandro DeAngelis and non-import receiver Clay Cooke.
Patrick spent five seasons with the Roughriders, accumulating 227 defensive tackles, 46 special-teams stops and 18 interceptions.
Last season, he had 40 defensive tackles and eight tackles on special teams, but he didn't have an interception. Just two seasons earlier, he led the CFL with nine picks.
"Nobody can really explain it, but he didn't seem to be the same player in our opinion that he used to be," Taman said. "When you get the expectation level and obviously the salary level that we were paying him, you expect a level of play that just wasn't met ...
"It wasn't an easy decision by any means, but in the cap world we live in, it's something we had to do."
Non-import Craig Butler, who as a rookie in 2011 made his first start at safety after Patrick was injured, has the inside track on being the Roughriders' starting safety in 2013.
DeAngelis joined the Roughriders in time for their sixth regular-season game last season after Chris Milo got off to a slow start with his placements.
DeAngelis went 30-for-39 on field-goal attempts and averaged 56.5 yards on 46 kickoffs. After Milo suffered a sprained ankle Oct. 8 in Toronto, DeAngelis took over as the Roughriders' punter and he punted 31 times for a 36.7-yard average to complete the regular season.
Taman said the Roughriders likely will bring in some younger kickers to join Milo and import punter Ricky Schmitt at training camp for a competition. That said, Taman noted the team expects Milo "to bounce back and have a good year for us."
"When we got Sandro to come in and kick as well as he did, that was a nice transition," Taman said. "But ultimately, Chris was going to get a chance to kick again, whether it was last year or this year.
"We've reached the off-season now where he can get six months to rehab his ankle and start from fresh. Chris was pretty darn good two years ago and we fully expect him to get back to that level."
Cooke spent most of the 2012 season on the Roughriders' practice roster, working out with them while also continuing his junior career with the PFC's Regina Thunder. He didn't dress for a CFL game.

2013 America's Cup
Sail-World.com : 68th Rolex Sydney Hobart Race - NOR and Application for Entry online
68th Rolex Sydney Hobart Race - NOR and Application for Entry online
'Wild Oats XI punches her way to Hobart - Rolex Sydney Hobart 2011'
© Rolex/Daniel Forster
The Cruising Yacht Club of Australia, the organising authority for the 68th edition of the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race, and Rolex SA of Geneva, the race's naming rights sponsor, have announced the release of the Notice of Race and now invite Applications for Entry.
Leading the battle for line honours will be Bob Oatley's Wild Oats XI, the race record holder, which has claimed line honours in five of the last seven Hobart races, including four consecutive victories from 2005 when it broke the record, to 2008.
To beat their own race record, Wild Oats XI needs an average speed of 14.7 knots and 'that's easily achievable in the right conditions,' Wild Oats XI's skipper, Mark Richards said today.
'We've made some minor modifications to improve the yacht's light weather speed with other minor tweaks still being considered,' he added.
Wild Oats XI will go back in the water later this month in the lead up to the Audi Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race, where Richards is aiming to break that race record too.
'We need an average of 14 knots to break the Gold Coast race record and that's not too difficult to achieve over the distance. It'll be a warm-up for what's to come in December,' he added.
Last year's overall winner, Stephen Ainsworth, declared that he would bring his super sleek Reichel/Pugh 63 Loki back to defend her title when he was presented with the stunning sterling silver Tattersall's Cup and Rolex yacht master timepiece on Constitution Dock.
When asked about his race win, Ainsworth said 'It is a fantastic feeling; a huge thrill to win this race. Having done 14 Hobart's, I know how hard it is to win. I've been trying for a long time, but so many things have to go right for you. We were lucky too that the wind gods were with us.
'The only thing that could better last year's win would be to win the race again this year. Loki's in great shape and the crew are itching to get racing again after a quiet couple of months.'
The CYCA is predicting an international fleet of around 90 yachts will make the start line on Boxing Day, December 26 at 1pm AEDT, for the tough annual 628 nautical mile offshore slog to Hobart in Tasmania.
The start of the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race will be broadcast live on the Seven Network throughout Australia, webcast live to a global audience on Yahoo!7 and the Australia Network throughout the Asia Pacific Region.
Applications for Entry in the Rolex Sydney Hobart 2012 close on Thursday 1 November 2012 at 1700hrs AEDT.
The Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race 2012 Notice of Race is now online at:
with applications for entry being accepted online.

More than two years have passed since the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami which devastated so many lives, but as we learnt after the Great Hanshin Earthquake in 1995, we are in this for the long haul. That means that the animals rescued at that time who are still with us, have to be cared for as long as it takes. After the Kobe quake, owners regularly came to visit at first but as time passed, they came infrequently and in the end stopped coming. Some of those animals were with us for 10 years and passed away at ARK.

Our priority now is on housing the remaining 16 dogs from the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami, many of whom have owners, but who are unable to take them back. The area (land) where the Earthquake dogs are now housed, has been rented for many years but now due to changing circumstances of the owners, is due to be returned to them. That means there is some urgency in building new kennels for them in Sasayama. Your continuing support is appreciated. | |||

His Democratic challenger, Albert Gore Jr., is campaigning on saving Social Security, protecting veterans' benefits and upholding the federal health care law that President Barack Obama signed in 2010.
Another candidate in the Senate race, the Constitution Party's Thomas Cramer, says he wants to limit the role of government.
They're on the ballot next Tuesday, along with the Reform Party's Shawn O'Hara.
Wicker, Gore and Cramer were among the politicians speaking Wednesday at the Mississippi Economic Council's annual Hobnob.
Several hundred business people and government officials attended the social gathering under a big white circus tent at the state agriculture museum in Jackson.
