Club competitions
National team competitions
Nationality: UKRBorn : 09.09.1975Place of birth: Kurakhovo (UKR) Height: 2.07mPosition: C
Career: Shakhtyor Donetsk (Ukraine-Superleague, 1996-2002), Azovmash Mariupol (Ukraine-Superleague, 2002-05).
At 30 years old, Volodymyr Gurtovyy will be the elder statesman on the national team. More surprising, he will make his grand debut on the European scene as he has never played in a major international tournament before... After playing most of his career with Shakhtyor Donetsk, Gurtovyy moved to Mariupol in 2002. Right away, he became a very productive inside player in the FIBA Europe League averaging 15.8 points and 9.2 rebounds and captured back-to-back championship Superleague titles. With his new squad he established himself as one of the best, if not the best, domestic center in the league... During the preparation games, while Ukraine was still waiting for his stars playing abroad, Gurtovyy was the leader of the national team, displaying a great array of post moves.

Why can't our political leaders work together as threats loom and problems mount? Why do people so readily assume the worst about the motives of their fellow citizens?
In The Righteous Mind, social psychologist Jonathan Haidt explores the origins of our divisions and points the way forward to mutual understanding. His starting point is moral intuition - the nearly instantaneous perceptions we all have about other people and the things they do. These intuitions feel like self-evident truths, making us righteously certain that those who see things differently are wrong.
Haidt shows us how these intuitions differ across cultures, including the cultures of the political left and right. He blends his own research findings with those of anthropologists, historians, and other psychologists to draw a map of the moral domain, and he explains why conservatives can navigate that map more skillfully than can liberals. He then examines the origins of morality, overturning the view that evolution made us fundamentally selfish creatures.
But rather than arguing that we are innately altruistic, he makes a more subtle claim - that we are fundamentally groupish. It is our groupishness, he explains, that leads to our greatest joys, our religious divisions, and our political affiliations. In a stunning final chapter on ideology and civility, Haidt shows what each side is right about, and why we need the insights of liberals, conservatives, and libertarians to flourish as a nation.

©2012 Jonathan Haidt (P)2012 Gildan Media LLC
"Haidt is looking for more than victory. He's looking for wisdom. That's what makes The Righteous Mind well worth reading…. a landmark contribution to humanity's understanding of itself." (The New York Times Book Review)
"Why Good People Are Divided - Good for whom?"
By and large, I think this is a good and even an important book. In it, Haidt very clearly lays out the research that supports the view that human beings have been endowed by evolution with 6 moral intuitions, or foundations. The moral intuitions are innate, which Haidt clearly explains does not mean fixed and immutable, but, rather, arranged in advance of experience. We don't all have a fixed set of moral intuitions, but there is a limited palate from which experience may paint the picture of how we perceive the world.
The most important part of Haidt's research and the argument of this book is that liberal and conservatives share these moral intuitions but tend to emphasize them very differently, and it is the different emphases that cause the divisions among us. In brief, liberals tend to assign moral weight to issues of justice (is it fair - does everyone have an equal chance) and harm/care (does it cause harm to another - bad; or does it help another - good). Conservatives share these intuitions, but their take on justice is different. For a conservative, justice is determined by proportionality. Each according to his/ her contribution, not his/ her need. In addition, everyone, but conservatives to a much greater extent than liberals, also feel that questions of loyalty (to one's group/family/country), authority (obedience), and purity/ sanctity (as in not mixing this with that) are moral issues. A sixth intuition concerns liberty. Here again, however, liberals and conservatives differ in how they think about liberty. Liberals wish to be free of constraints applied by other members of the group, while conservatives think of liberty as freedom from government.
As a framework for parsing arguments between liberals and conservatives, I think this is extraordinarily helpful. What Haidt and colleagues argue is that when we disagree with our ideological counterparts, the disagreements arise from differences in the weight we apply to these moral intuitions. For liberals, there really are just two primary moral issues, fairness and harm/care, while conservatives also value authority, loyalty, purity and liberty to a great extent.
Importantly, Haidt argues that each of the moral intuitions has been vital to the evolution of human culture. While those among us who are liberals care more about justice and care, without the other intuitions, we would never have achieved the groupishness and hence the culture that separates humans from other animals. It is primarily the conservative intuitions that have been responsible for providing the glue that held groups together over our evolutionary history, and it is as groups that human beings have generated a culture that has distanced us from our primitive ape cousins.
Not much to take issue with there.
Ultimately, however, Haidt explains that his study of morality produced in him a sort of conversion from liberal to moderately conservative, having discovered the value of groupish moral intuitions. He also cites research showing that conservatives are better able to take the view of a liberal into account that vice versa, and invites liberals to try to broaden their view to include these other intuitions. His suggestion in this book and elsewhere is that more conservative voices should be added to the intellectual debate over the role of moral intuitions in society.
So here's my problem with that. 1) I am liberal and have a hard time, as he says, understanding how the groupish intuitions might continue to retain their value as moral intuitions in the modern world. It seems to me that many of our greatest problems today have to do with the oversized role of these moral intuitions in buttressing parochial concerns (issues of importance to my group only), leading to inter-group conflict.
2) I am a member of a group (gays) that has been and still is legally disenfranchised in this country, and that disenfranchisement is largely justified by referral to the moral intuition purity. I can't marry my partner, because too many people in this country believe that to allow me to do so would somehow violate the purity/sanctity of heterosexual marriage. So, I can't get behind it. Of course, that is my parochial concern, but I can point to similar concerns that would affect nearly everyone. Purity/Sanctity, in my view, is a moral intuition that has outlived its useful life.
3) Too much of Haidt's argument has the flavor of a naturalistic fallacy. One is committing the naturalistic fallacy when one deems something to be good on the basis of it being natural. Another way it is expressed is when a person assumes that something ought or should be a certain way solely on the basis that it is that way in nature. Haidt's argument is more subtle than saying that because people are endowed with six moral intuitions, therefore all six ought to be valued equally. But, for may taste, his argument still relies mostly on the argument that because these six moral foundations were all critical for the development of what we consider to be civilized society, that they are all to be consulted in policy- and decision-making now. Much of our civilization consists of norms and rules for curbing natural instincts. The instincts that continually reify parochial groupishness, ie, the conservative moral intuitions, are among the natural instincts that I believe must be curbed. An alternative take is that the moral foundations are fine as is, but the groups to which they are applied must be continually enlarged to include everyone, and then perhaps everything. Clearly, this circle-enlarging has been occurring and will likely continue. That's great. But, shouldn't we also work to limit the sway of the intuitions that, while historically vital, are presently harmful or at best of dubious value for large swathes (i.e., anyone not in the majority) of our society today?
"Insightful and thought-provoking book!"
I really enjoyed this book! Haidt has a wonderful ability to make research ideas and results gripping and easy to understand. And when it comes to how the human mind works, there are quite a few surprises in this book even for a seasoned psychologist :)
Haidt's ideas on why religions are useful and existed in every society throughout the human evolution are riveting!
For anybody who enjoyed Haidt's The Happiness Hypothesis, you will love this book as well.
I found the first half of the book much more fast-paced and engaging than the second half but I still couldn't stop listening to it until the very end and it was well worth it. By "couldn't stop listening to it", I meant that I didn't switch to some other book or podcast like I normally do when the pace gets slower. I do not listen to anything in one sitting - I only listen to books when driving, doing chores around the house, cooking, etc. But then, with this book, it really pays off to have some time between ideas to absorb and process them.
"Exploring Emotion and Reason"
This is a good audiobook.
I have enjoyed thinking about how some people are unable to grasp things not because they are stupid, but because they have already formed an idea about them.
The author is rare for being a good performer as well. Given the divisiveness the topic could engender in some, the open, thoughtful voice of the author lends an even tone that allows everyone to enjoy and learn.
The importance of emotion to reason.
"This book opened my eyes"
I heard about this book on a podcast I was listening to. In this book Jonathan Haidt does a great job explaining why we think the way we do and why we're shaped to think the way we do. Here is a book that if you listen/read it all the way through will explain to you why we vote the way we do and think the way we do. I used to not understand people who practice strict religious teachings. Now I understand it (read the book to find out why). It also explains why people are Republicans and others are Democrats. It explains why their not understanding each other or the world. This has been a real eye opener for me and has already been helpful since I began to apply the principles in my life. I've been recommending this book to everyone I hear say something about Republicans or Democrats. It is a must read for anyone!
"Hopefully the start of a more productive dialogue"
The thing that saddens me when I read books on moral psychology is that it makes it clear that we as a species have come to a good understanding about how it is we think, yet that understanding doesn't filter down to the individual level. Like Michael Shermer's The Believing Brain, or Carol Tavris and Elliot Aronson's Mistakes Were Made (But Not By Me), this book has within it much that could help keep in check the more extravagant of cognitive pitfalls, yet how does it make that tricky journey from the psychology journals and out into the public? This book, as good as any other on the topic I have read, has me hoping it will be able to make a little headway.
Since I'm not a psychologist, I can't comment on the quality of the research, except to say that I found the presentation of the ideas was clear and very illustrative. Haidt's writing style is very accessible, and whether or not you agree with him by the end, anyone who carefully listens should at least appreciate where he was coming from. By the end, there's perhaps a means to appreciate where other people are coming from.
One major problem was that in his efforts to give a descriptive moral psychology, he ignored the prescriptive aspect. The question of whether or not people see morality a particular way doesn't make that way warranted. Of course Jonathan Haidt knows this, but neglects to mention this until near the end of the penultimate chapter, and even then does little more than shrug at the prospect. That's fair enough as he's not a moral philosopher, but for several chapters preceding that brief mention he focused on trying to understand morality from a neurological perspective - even going so far as to ridicule those current prescriptive theories as being inadequate and possibly the result of Aspergers' syndrome. As the reader this was quite jarring, as he was seeming to make the same mistake Sam Harris did in The Moral Landscape by descending into neurobabble.
For example, much is made of Western Educated Industrial Rich and Democratic (WEIRD) phenomenon of moral psychology where the educated products of enlightenment thinking see the role of moral thought in a very different way from all other societies (and even the poor in their own society). While he makes an interesting case for why moral psychology as a discipline has misfired by focusing on the WEIRD, be doesn't address the inverse case - why some of us are WEIRD? After all, being weird is the anomaly.
If you keep in mind that his account of morality is descriptive rather than normative, then the book reads much better. It's a good account of how to think about how other people think on moral issues, and that is a vital part of having an understanding of where other people are coming from. For that, the book is good. And as far as the presentation goes, Haidt's willingness to describe the diagrams was useful, and him breaking out in song was an unexpected joy.
"Wow! Great insight."
Absolutely. It helps Dems and Repubs see their differences more scientifically.
Brain Rules by John Medina because it is a very scientific look at how the brain reacts.
All of it. Couldn't put it down.
We can get along if we understand the other side.
"Thought-provoking analysis on moral psychology"
Haidt builds a compelling case for his moral foundation theory and makes a convincing argument for why conservatives actually have a more balanced moral matrix than liberals, and just in case you're wondering, I am a life-long liberal. (So is he, apparently.) But this is only one small part of his thesis.
He is a good writer and a good reader and his book has practical applications for promoting greater civility and a more productive cross-party dialogue in American politics.
"Life Changing Book"
Insight into how your own mind and morals really work, not just how we think they should work. Helps you gain insights into not only your own values, but those of the people around. Helps Democrats understand why Republicans do what they do and visa versa. Would recommend this book to all my friends, especially the ministers, the President of the United States, and the whole of the US Congress.
"Bridging the liberal / conservative chasm"
Most "readers" will appreciate the superb delivery of the audio version. Those of us (myself included) who discover that his worldview and ideas reshape our own will either want to listen to the audio twice or also purchase the print version -- to enable note taking and marking up of the most important pages.
Because the ideas are so unsettling for social and political liberals (like myself!), the author's tone and personal story vignettes are absolutely vital to keep me from becoming defensive (and thus no longer really listening). Yet, by the time he concludes, I feel fully affirmed -- as the need today is not for liberals to go conservative, but for liberals to become morally fuller by maintaining our existing commitments while opening to searching for solutions that are no longer win-lose but win-win. In fact, I recall watching online a spring 2012 interview that Bill Moyers conducted with the author, and Bill's curiosity and open delight in this larger worldview are a treasure to watch. Morality becomes all encompassing.
The author is the audio narrator -- and he is superb! Personal stories he tells are especially powerful this way, and his best stories are those that reveal the pivotal experiences in his own life that led him from social/political liberal to a wider embrace of the full spectrum of moral and ethical appreciation.
It is way too long to listen to in one setting -- but very compelling to use as bedtime listening on consecutive nights or for a very long road trip.
I learn so much these days online via short videos, newsclips, blogs, op-ed pieces, etc. that I tend to become stingy about my time reading a traditional book. Books are often not time-efficient enough for me anymore. But The Righteous Mind exemplifies deep respect for the reader/listener's time via its organization, writing, storytelling, and editing. It actually restores my faith in learning via books. As I reflect on my experience, I see that what took the author a lifetime to achieve in worldview expansion, I actually got in a week of evening listening.
I love Audiobooks. I listen to roughly 50-100 hours a month. It's a good thing I work for Audible!
"This changed the way I think about politics"
In terms of books on politics, philosophy and cognitive science, its one of the best.
The book tackles very sensitive topics - people's most closely held beliefs, and explains the WHY in a way that is sensible and non-controversial. Haidt provides a compelling case for why morality may have a genetic basis.
The chapter on Moral Foundations Theory. I laughed, I cried, it was better than Cats.
Its not really that kind of book, but the part describing group selection theory was good.
The most boring movie that ever changed your life.
Regardless of your political or religious persuasion, you should listen to this book.

By Brenden Vaughan and Andrew Brandt
This week, our support and advanced malware removal (AMR) team did not have a lot of new data to report about rogue security products. The most commonly encountered infection continues to be one of the rogues we reported about last week.
While we may refer to it as XP Total Security, it actually chooses one of a series of names at random, based on the operating system on the victim's computer. Last week's post contains a more comprehensive list of these names. As previously reported, you can remove the rogue by scanning (with our product, not theirs) while the computer is in Safe Mode.
Its main executable has a random, three-character filename, and gets installed into a random, three-character folder inside the Application Data folder for the user who is currently logged on at the time of the infection. The rogue's install location is:
%UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application Data\<random>\<random>.exe
AMR reported seeing another rogue called Antivirus IS. While this is the first time they have mentioned it, Brenden believes it is a bit older, and has been floating around since late last year. Its logo is a blue shield with a single red diagonal stripe; its tagline, "Innovative protection for your PC," is utter nonsense.

Party Profile
Alegria Pride
Sunday Jun 30, 2013
New York , New York
Every year, NYC party producer Ric Sena presents the party that is the culmination, in every sense of the word, of New York Pride. New York boasts the oldest Pride, the one that started it all, so it's understandable why people flock here from all over the world. Take that million-plus crowd, distill it down to the hottest men, put them into a mega-club for 12-plus hours of driving music, and you have the Pride celebration that tops them all. Each year, Ric tries to outdo himself with a brand-new theme, set of decorations, equally decorated ultra-muscular go-go dancers, and a party that keeps people talking for months afterward. This is one party of NYC Pride weekend that you simply cannot miss. Word to the wise: Buy your tickets early, because this party is guaranteed to sell out fast. You'll meet men from the four corners of the planet on the dance floor, but don't worry if you can't talk to each other: Our form of body language is universal.

style snapshot: Long Hair with Bangs
Even though I'd love to have Jean Seberg's haircut in theory, it's another 60's inspired 'do that actually works better with my face and hair texture: long hair and bangs. I think I just might keep wearing variations of it until I am old and grey.
From top to bottom: Brigitte Bardot via Paula Roid, Jane Birkin via William Gibson Board, France Gall via The Fashion Set, Marianne Faithfull via The Stylish Underground, Cher via MSoftmix, Francoise Hardy via The Thinking Tank
p.s. an old college classmate, Sarah Scoville Nielsen, was nice enough to ask me to do a little "tutorial" about letter writing on her blog. You can see it here.

The Section of Research Oncology has as a central albeit non-exclusive theme of the pathobiology of breast cancer. Substantial activity surrounds cellular, genetic and proteomic studies on patient breast tumour samples, as well as exploitation of the derived data in the form of basic biological insights and (immuno) therapies. Additional areas of research strength are in novel imaging techniques, pathophysiology of lymphoedema, cancer outcomes and global oncopolicy.
Work of the Section includes:
Andrew Tutt is a Consultant Clinical Oncologist and Director of the Breakthrough Breast Cancer Research Unit and a Professor of Oncology at King's College London. After training at the Royal Marsden Hospital, he worked with Professor Alan Ashworth at the Institute of Cancer Research, where he described the DNA repair functions of the BRCA2 breast cancer predisposition gene. He practises clinical oncology at Guy's Hospital and has developed a translational clinical trial programme focusing on cancers associated with functional deficiencies in BRCA1 and BRCA2. His interests involve the discovery of novel therapies in BRCA1/BRCA2-associated cancers and ER/HER2-negative/basal-like breast cancers—including the identification of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) as an exciting new target for therapy in these areas. He is chief investigator for the international BRCA and Triple Negative Breast Cancer Trials (TNT) and the phase II ICEBERG proof of concept trials of PARP inhibition with Olaparib in BRCA1 and BRCA2 carriers. He leads a neo-adjuvant trial initiative for Triple Negative Breast Cancer in Breast International Group Neo-BIG program. Dr Tutt's laboratory research interests focus on the identification and validation of potential treatment targets and biomarkers for women with Triple Negative Breast Cancer.
The Mammary stem cell biology group focuses on characterization of normal and malignant mammary stem cells in order to elucidate their role in cancer initiation and progression.
Developing an experimental framework appropriate for the study of stem cells of human origin is one of the priorities of the group and an ongoing effort. Novel experimental systems are employed to understand the molecular mechanisms that govern cell fate decisions and to identify defects in these mechanisms that can lead to transformation. The ultimate goal of these studies is to develop clinical applications based on stem cell biology concepts and to explore their translational potential in cancer diagnosis, prognostication, therapy and
The CAR mechanics lab is focussed upon development of novel genetic strategies to target T-cell specificity against diverse malignancies. The approach we use entails the construction of cDNAs that encode for fusions known as Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs). These molecules couple the ability to target native tumour antigens to delivery of a tailored T-cell activating signal. Delivery to polyclonal peripheral blood T-cells is achieved using retroviral or lentiviral vectors. In a parallel theme, we are developing systems to target other lymphoid cell populations against cancer, including natural killer and gamma delta T-cells. Our first clinical trial of CAR-based immunotherapy is scheduled for 2012 and will involve the treatment of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck.

Well nothing bad to say, but still nothing spectacular either. Customer service in the lobby was great though! Breakfast is quite minimal and the beds are not what you would expect, but Copenhagen is pretty expensive city so for 100€ a night I guess this was quite cheap room on excellent location, 50m from the Central railway station's main entry.

Under 8s - Rangers
Manager | Andy Vickers | Mob: 07805769692 firstname.lastname@example.com |
Match Reports
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Cov Jag
5th May 2012 at Away
Result: Lost
Scorers: Louie, Ewan 2
Man of the Match: Kavan & George & Louis
The final fixture of the season was against Cov Jag.
With lots of subs to rotate the organisation of the team suffered a little, but it was good to see everyone available and playing with a smile on their face.
FF did lead briefly against a team a year older an certainly weren't far off matching their opponents overall. A superb 1st time finish from Louie go us off to a great start. Kavan also made some heroic saves in goal. George ran his socks off again in the midfield.
In the end a loss, but over the season we were very competitive within the Whittle league.
Louis deserved his long overdue MotM award in the additional shortened match played afterwards.
The team have been a credit to the firefighters club.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Pinley
28th Apr 2012 at Away
Result: Won
Scorers: Ewan 4, Kavan 3, Cameron
Man of the Match: Will
In midst of a drought, most games this weekend were called off due to waterlogged pitches. However, the Pinley pitch was in remarkably good condition.
But playing into the wind and rain in the first half, Pinley had the majority of the play. Will showed a much improved focus on the game, getting his challenges in and making passes to his team mates. Finn made a good couple of saves to keep FF in touch at half time. George had a good run out in midfield making some timely interceptions.
With 2nd half conditions now in their favour, FF took control of the game. Ewan running at the opposition at every opportunity. Kavan, a real handful up front. Daniel grew in confidence, dribbling past two players at one point.
Cameron notched up his first FF goal, taking up a clever far post position from a corner to finish well, then showing off the biggest of smiles running back for the restart.
Pinley still looked dangerous however, a cute finish to chip the goalkeeper the only one conceded in the second half. Will commanded his area well to intercept Pinley attacks and make good clearances out of his hands.
A terrific performance and a thoroughly enjoyable match, which helped distract everyone from the cold, at least for a while, well done!
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Mount Nod
21st Apr 2012 at Away
Result: Lost
Man of the Match: Daniel
The impressive Mount Nod, filled with Academy level players were too strong for FF.
They battled on bravely throughout but it wasn't enough this time. The manager kept to an ambitious attacking formation which did leave space for the MD attacks, but at least this mean't FF managed a few attempts on goal.
Still, this shows the level we can aspire too, as I think this opposition must be the strongest U7 team in the city.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Mount Nod Blue
7th Apr 2012 at Home
Result: Won
Scorers: Kavan 2, Ewan 1, Louis 1, Stephan 1
Man of the Match: Joe
FF played some beautiful football in the first half. Retaining possession and being confident on the ball to find that right pass.
Stephan bagged his first FF goal and showed great confidence on the ball. Louie played a valuable team role to link the team together. Ewan showed his determination to run at the opposition and create opportunities for others. Joe positioned himself well in defence, not let the attackers get in behind him ,alongside mr consistent, Cameron. Louis continued to impress and notched up another goal.
Perhaps the manager gave them too much praise as the second half was completely different to the first. Mount Nod to their credit never gave up and got themselves back in the game down to honest hard work. Bradley made a good save to keep FF in front.
Kavan never touched the ball in goal in the first half but got right involved in the second with two cool finishes.
FF ran out worthy winners in the in end with an impressive display.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Ernesford Dynamos
24th Mar 2012 at Home
Result: Lost
Scorers: Louie
Man of the Match: Louie
Firefighters started well to match a strong ED team.
Ewans cross picked out Louie whose first time shot was unstoppable.
Kavan stood up strong to save a firmly struck penalty.
FF were on the back foot as the team struggled to adapt to the changes made at half time. Louie ward was superb in defence, constantly coming to the rescue to keep out he ED onslaught.
Joe worked hard in midfield to break up the opposition attacks. Stephan in goal for the second half, was alert to quickly come off his line to clear the danger. Bradley showed bursts of speed up front, but we still need to work out how to get him on the ball more.
Almost enough for a result but a bit more fire and fight needed next time!
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Coundon Court
17th Mar 2012 at Home
Result: Lost
Scorers: Kavan, Ewan
Man of the Match: Stephan
Firefighters weren't quite at it today and paid the price. A couple of CCB goals were certainly a little fortunate but FF didn't do enough to win.
A little more effort to work their team mates and passing to them at the right moment, might have made the difference to get a result.
Stephan was bright in midfield and Ewan scored a great solo goal but there was certainly some things to work on in training.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Leamington Hibs Shamrocks
3rd Mar 2012 at Away
Result: Won
Scorers: Kavan, Louis 3
Man of the Match: Bradley
Firefighters maintained their unbeaten away record against leamington hibs shamrocks.
Even after conceding an early goal against the run of play, they confidently played their way back into the game.
Kavan got us back in the match with a good strike.
Louis kept looking for space in the box, being in the right place to complete a hat-trick, I think his family may be reminded of that a few times over the weekend.
Daniel was flying into the tackles and Bradley struck a superb shot which needed a good save onto the post. Finn nearly burst the ball with his power driven shot which rattled the bar.
Great industry from Louie, Stephen and Ewan linked the team up well throughout. Cameron was dependable in defence but also showed confidence on the ball.
2 wondrous goals from leam hibs, but it was a deserved win for FF.
Well done boys
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Pro Santos
25th Feb 2012 at Home
Result: Lost
Man of the Match: None chosen
Pro Santos were far brighter in opening exchanges and raced into the lead.
The discipline of recent weeks was lacking and the defence was often exposed on the break, when the midfield were found out of position.
A rare highlight was Stephans shot which was unlucky to come back off the post.
At half time the troops were regrouped and a much improved display followed. Pro Santos chances were restricted to a couple of half chances as FF kept to their individual roles for the team. Louie was excellent in defence even though he didn't believe it.
Cameron had a run out up front and when brought down in the box took the responsibility himself, only to see his spot kick go just wide. (If Gerrard(s) can miss, so could anyone!)
Bradley was excellent in goal which included some huge clearances out of his hands. Finn was his usual tenacious self and contributed well throughout.
An even second half to FF's credit and some defensive skills to work on for this weeks training.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Southam Colts
18th Feb 2012 at Away
Result: Won
Scorers: Louie 3, Ewan, Kavan
Man of the Match: Louie
A terrific game was played out at windswept Southam. The team started well but failed to take some early chances and then fell behind against the run of play.
But to their credit, they kept their heads up and deservedly got themselves back into the game. Louie was playing with great confidence and got a superb hat-trick. Stephan was unfortunate to see the ref pull the game back for a free kick, just as he was about to run in on goal. Super sub Daniel came off the bench and really got stuck in, which was great to see.
Ewan showed tremendous energy to run at the Southam defence and good discipline to quickly return to his defensive position.
The good team play continued into the second half as FF threatened to run away with the game. But Southam took advantage of FF not keeping to their defensive positions to put the result back in the balance.
With time running out Kavan pounced to fire the ball into the roof of the net to seal a great win.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Santos
28th Jan 2012 at Away
Result: Won
Scorers: Louie, Kavan 3, Ewan 5
Man of the Match: Kavan
FF continued to make strides forward with a great team display against Santos. They are now getting into good habits of looking to pass at the right moment. Louis and Daniel both set up shooting chances with clever through balls.
Cameron, Joe and Finn were tenacious in defence, snuffing out lots of opposition attacks. Will positioned himself well in goal, being in the right place to deflect several shots wide of the goal.
Louie reminded us what a sweet left foot he has with another to his goal tally. Kavan was full of energy marauding forward and bagged himself a deserved hat-trick. Ewan also had his shooting boots on again.
Confidence should be very high to take into their next game.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Brinklow
21st Jan 2012 at Away
Result: Won
Scorers: Ewan 3
Man of the Match: Ewan
FF switched to an ambitious 2-2-2 formation as they looked to go on the attack. But the first half was one of survival as driving rain left a quite a few players looking cold, wet an miserable by half time.
With Joe and George battling bravely on after receiving smashed balls to the face and Cameron and Will getting knocks the FF's were walking wounded by full time.
As second half weather conditions improved, so did the performance as the team linked up some nice passing moves. Ewan was in top form with all left foot hat-trick, who combined well with the ever impressive stephan in midfield. George and Bradley got stuck in and showed good confidence on the ball. Finn may have suffering frost bite after being in goal in the first half, but got well involved and managed some strong strikes on goal.
Cameron was very close to notching up his first FF goal when his shot from the edge of the box hit the bar.
Well done boys, a good performance, especially considering several players were missing through sickness.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Mount Nod Blue
3rd Dec 2011 at Away
Result: Draw
Scorers: Ewan, o.g.
Man of the Match: Stephan
The boys weren't at the races today, several appeared to be suffering from coughs and colds. Louie made several good 1st half saves in goal and in the outfield in the second half, linked the team up well with some unselfish passes.
Stephan earned his MoTM award with his determination to work for his team mates and always kept himself in intelligent positions.
The manager holds his hands up for the first goal but we still want to encourage the players to be confident in possession and bring the all out from the back.
FF briefly lead after another unselfish pass gave Ewan time and space to finish. A lapse in concentration let Mount Nod right back in, but a draw was the right result on the day but we can hope for a fully fit FF team next time.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Mount Nod
26th Nov 2011 at Home
Result: Lost
Man of the Match: Louie
FF struggled against a good mount nod Team.
The effort was there, but the team work was not. With FF not passing to each other very much, the Mount Nod team were able to hunt down the possession in packs and dominate the game.
Some lessons to be learn't about passing and moving in order to be more competitive against good teams like this.
With little in the way of chances provided by the team Louie did very well up front to create some shooting opportunities against a defender we have seen play well a number of times now.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Coundon Court
19th Nov 2011 at Away
Result: Won
Scorers: Louie 2, louis, Kavan, Ewan
Man of the Match: Finn
FF rattled up plenty of goals in a entertaining encounter with coundon court.
Louis made a great debut in midfield and Joe stepped up a gear in his new boots. Louie put in a real shift in midfield and was a constant goal threat when up front.
Daniels confidence is growing all the time and Bradley showed glimses of great pace. Kavan showed good responsibility to track all the way back after his marauding runs forward.
With the result in the balance until the latter stages, FF kept their cool and took their chances to pull clear.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Leamington Hibs U7
12th Nov 2011 at Home
Result: Won
Scorers: Finn, Ewan
Man of the Match: Cameron
After a few last minute discussions it was decided the Leam Hibs U7 should play the FF U7 rather than what the Listed fixture may have said. Leaving the two U8 teams to fight it out on the adjacent pitch.
Both teams looked solid at the back in a first half of few chances. Finn got the first goal by managing to block a clearance which flew into the net.
Ewan then broke forward from his defensive role to fire his shot into the top of the net. Hibs then hit back straight away to put the result back in the balance.
After half time FF had several chances to score more goals were reluctant to give that final pass or standing too close to receive the ball in space.
But you couldn't fault the effort, epitomised by Stephan who worked tirelessly and must have run Cameron very close for Man of the Match.
Well done boys, but plenty to work on in training.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Leamington Hibs U8
29th Oct 2011 at Home
Result: Lost
Scorers: Kavan 1
Man of the Match: None chosen
This was a bridge too far for the U7's.
Playing a team a year older, filled with academy players and FF having one or two absent, a lesson in football was duly taught.
Fair play to boys they kept trying right to the end and at least we know the standard we can aim to be in a years time.
Fixture: Under 8s - Rangers vs. Dunlop
15th Oct 2011 at Away
Result: Won
Scorers: Ewan 4, Louie 3
Man of the Match: None chosen
Playing their first fixture as a purely under 7 team, the boys did remarkably well against Dunlop. They worked hard for each other through out and showed glimpses of great passing sequences which is promising for the future.
The Debutants of Daniel, George, Finn and Bradley fitted well into the team and all acquitted themselves well.
The game itself was a feast of goals, which was hard to keep up with the scoring. So if any goal scorers are incorrect, please let the manager know. Louie and Ewan deserve a mention not just for their hat tricks but their passing really linked the team together.
Stephen showed great energy on the wing and was unlucky to see his goal bound long range shot blocked. Finn was decisive in defence, making some good clearances, alongside was Cameron who was his usual wall, thou shall not pass.
Kavan showed how adaptable he was, being in goal for the first half and equally effective up front for the second. Joe showed great endeavour to clear his lines in the first half and his willingness to be a team player by offering to go in goal for the second.
Well done lads, and we look forward to welcoming more debutants next week.

Choose Your Weapon Poster
Ready? Fight!
- Poster for all you Super Smash Bros Fans
- 18 inches by 24 inches of awesome Nintendo symbolism
- Original Artwork by Dylan Miller on 100lb paper
- Read more...
Ready? Fight!
Masahiro Sakurai was bored with traditional fighting games. The legendary Nintendo developer grew tired of watching double-jointed mutants demolish their friends in arcades - not because of their skill in the fighting games of the day, but because of their mastery of the unstoppable finger-breaking button-mashing combos. He wanted easier controls, more freedom to explore the fighting arena. Also, he wanted to see a fight between Pikachu and Samus.
The resulting game, Super Smash Bros, knocked the gaming world for a loop. Not only could Mario kick Luigis little green ass, but they could also knock each other off the platform entirely, move in two magical directions and not just one, but they can collect random powerups to help them defeat their opponent and survive to the next round.
Now, it's your turn to pick up the controller and play. Which character will you choose? Will you choose Mario and his devastating Coin-Punch Combo and fireball attack, or will you try Kirby on for size, and swallow your opponents' powers? Each have their benefits and their weaknesses, so which will you choose?
Make your choice now! Choose your weapon!
- Symbols from the Nintendo 64 hit Super Smash Bros
- 18 x 24 inch poster on 100 pound matte paper
- Original artwork by Dylan Miller
- Poster suitable for hanging or framing
- A great gift for the retro gamer

We really are doing this thing...
We arrived in Hervey Bay on Sunday after a marathon packing effort and a 15 hour road trip.
It was a surreal feeling waking up on Monday – we're not on holidays, we don't have jobs to go to – we really are doing this thing!
Even though we finished work over a week ago we hadn't had a chance to think about the business. Moving is always hell, but we decided to add to the degree of difficulty by packing up the apartment ourselves and driving our stuff to Wagga – a good 5 hour trip from Sydney (just couldn't say no to free storage). We then rushed back up to Sydney to clean the apartment. Needless to say everything took longer than expected and collapsing into bed at 2:30am and waking at 7am became the norm for a couple of days.
Thinking about what exciting adventures lay ahead for us was just too exhausting – we simply just needed to put one foot in front of the other until the move was complete.
However, I do recall cleaning the apartment at about 1am one day last week and saying to D, that we deserved to take a few days off once we got to Hervey Bay and just relax. He looked at me shocked and said 'no way, I'm looking forward to getting into programing first thing Monday morning'.
The excitement and passion for what we are doing did return to me once the road trip ended AND then we were into it, with our first planning meeting at 8:30 yesterday morning.
P.S. check out this week's daily gift ideas which are inspired by our road trip.

Horizons AlphaPro 60 Equal Weight Index opened for trading on July 14.
Each stock started off at less than 1.7 per cent of the total fund, and the portfolio is rebalanced every three months to restore the equal weightings. This strategy reduces stock-specific risk and also tends to lessen concentration in the heavily weighted financial services and resources sectors.

The WFDC Research Subcommittee is looking for faculty members who are interested in mentoring a postdoctoral fellow on campus, to provide advice in addition to the support the postdoc receives from his/her primary advisor(s). Such a program that connected postdocs with faculty members has existed before, and with the help of the Postdoctoral Society we would like to reinstate the program. Previously, postdocs seemed to have a need for advice regarding career choices, setting and meeting goals, and communication skills. Based on personal preference, advice may be given one-on-one, or faculty members may form mentoring teams to serve the needs of particular post-docs. We ask that mentors have once been a postdoc, and preferably have an active research program. This is a great opportunity for junior faculty members to serve as mentor. Please email Emily Freeman at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Lauren and Jon - Married - Westin Charlotte
Lauren and Jon are very dear friends to us. So dear, in fact, that Jon asked Geoff to be his best man. Since he would be out of commission for wedding day, my friend and fabulous photographer Amy Martin stepped in to fill Geoff's shoes by shooting with me. Thanks, Amy!!!
Lauren and I started the beautiful, rain-free day together at Alan Daniel's Salon with coffee. I just love spending time with Lauren - she's funny, thoughtful, patient, trustworthy, and so full of joy - generally just a great friend that everyone wants to be around. And on her wedding day - although a tad sick - she was so very happy.
When we arrived back at Lauren's parents house, we were received by one of my favorite dogs in the world - Beau, the Pomeranian. Kymm of Who's the Fairest did Lauren's makeup and is as obsessed with him as I am. :) Here she is with him below.
I loved Lauren's dress - compliments of Mecklenburg Bridal.
I should not allow myself to shoot friend's weddings anymore, as I was a total wreck as I attempted to shoot Lauren and her dad coming down the aisle and the look on Jon's face as he saw her for the first time. A WRECK, I tell you. Lauren and Jon were married at St. Patricks in Dilworth.
After the ceremony and family pictures, Amy and I met up with the bridal party uptown at the Green for pictures before heading over the their reception at The Westin. SO glad for the weather we had that day.
Before being announced into their reception I snagged them for a couple more shots inside The Westin.
Split Second Sound provided the DJ services for the evening.
The father daughter dance was probably the best I've ever seen - everyone was definitely entertained!
I love this shot of Jon and his mom dancing. :)
Hey now! Who's this hot guy?!
Congratulations, Lauren and Jon! Geoff and I love you both to pieces and are so-incredibly-from-the-bottom-of-our-hearts happy for you.

That's so cool that you just did a friend's wedding where your hubby was the best man. :) I was just in that situation too! My hubby was the best man in the wedding I photographed for our closest friends on Saturday. :)

Setup and ready to go for maximum playability, the Les Paul Traditional lets you create your own musical history!Gibson Les Paul Traditional Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
Classic design for big sound Taking design and visual cues from early Les Pauls, the Les Paul Traditional starts with an un-chambered mahogany body with no weight-relief. We're talking solid mahogany here. The body is capped with a carved AA figured maple top and the hand fitted neck tenon sports a '50s rounded neck shape. The Gibson Les Paul Traditional hearkens back to the early days of the Les Paul in design and sound.

You won't believe how well this guitar plays! '57 Classic pickups give you powerful, punchy tones Two of Gibson's best-loved humbuckers - a '57 Classic in the neck position, and a '57 Classic Plus in the bridge - give the Les Paul Traditional the power, punch, and clarity of Gibson's legendary PAF pickups. Other traditional appointments include vintage-style Gibson speed knobs, classic Kluson-style tuners by TonePros, which offer period-correct looks with a higher tuning ratio, and a chrome Nashville Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar.

I absolutely love this guitar !! I had a 93 Les Paul Standard which regretfully I sold. When I got to a place where I could get another, I couldn't find anything like the 93 that I had. I knew I wante... read more [+]d a Les Paul that had some weight to it because that's where you get all the tone. Gibson offers so many different models of Pauls, I didn't know which way to go. So I did some research and with the help of Patrick, of Sweetwater Customer Service, I got lucky and narrowed it down to the Traditional. My whole experience from choosing the right guitar, the purchasing process and finally the day when my guitar arrived, was nothing short of awesome !! Thanks again Sweetwater !! close [-]
