Founded in 1882, The SPR was the first society to conduct organised scholarly research into human experiences that challenge contemporary scientific models.

The science delusion is the belief that science already understands the nature of reality, in principle. The fundamental questions are answered, leaving only the details to be filled in. The impressive achievements of science seemed to support this confident attitude. But recent research has revealed unexpected problems at the heart of physics, cosmology, biology, medicine and psychology. In his new book, Dr Rupert Sheldrake shows how the sciences are being constricted by assumptions that have hardened into dogmas. Should science be a belief-system, or a realm of enquiry? In the sceptical spirit of true scientific enquiry, Sheldrake turns the ten fundamental dogmas of science into questions, opening up startling new possibilities. For example, the "laws of nature" may be habits that change and evolve. The Gravitational Constant may not be constant. Minds may extend far beyond brains. The total amount of matter and energy may be increasing. Memories may not be stored as traces in our brains. Sheldrake argues that science would be better off without its dogmas: freer, more interesting and more fun.

The head of the U.S. Small Business Administration won't be staying for President Obama's second term.
SBA Administrator Karen Mills announced her plans to resign in an e-mail to agency staff, one that officials released Monday. The federal agency would not say why Mills is leaving her post, noting only that she will be returning to her home state of Maine.
The White House did not immediately name a successor. In what was largely a symbolic move to show the importance of entrepreneurship in the economic recovery, President Obama made the SBA chief a cabinet-level position last year.
The SBA's primary purpose is to help small businesses get access to funding via government-backed loans from private banks. That task became extraordinarily difficult during the recession, as banks reeled back from their normal lending practices. Mills assumed her post as chief in April 2009 and led the SBA while businesses scrambled for loans.
During her tenure, the SBA took part in loans worth more than $106 billion to at least 193,000 businesses.
The agency is also charged with helping small business land federal contracts. In her note to SBA employees, Mills boasted about the agency's work, noting that federal contracting to small businesses also increased during her years there. She said businesses secured $286.3 billion in federal contracts in the last three years, $32 billion more than the previous three.
"Together, we got capital into the hands of small business owners and entrepreneurs when they needed it most," Mills wrote.
Various surveys and studies, such as those conducted by the National Federation of Independent Businesses, have tracked the improving economic environment for the country's 28 million small businesses.
But while the credit conditions have vastly improved, they're still not at pre-recession levels, according to the NFIB's economic trends report.
In Mills' tenure, Washington annually missed its goal to award 23% of all federal contract dollars to small businesses, continuing a trend that began in 2005.

God knows it took me long enough to get finished, 1 year later i textured it hahaha.
Last edited by DMz; 6th Jan 11 at 12:19 PM.
can you post some Data for this vehicle pls?
it look nice btw
but isnt it a Su 76?
and no Tiger I "late" or Panther Ausf. G on the list?
(if anybody interested to create a late Tiger I model try this:
75mm Gun Motor Carriage M3 or '75mm SP, Autocar'
This is an SU-76
aha thx dmz
but waht is this release at the soviets at the 1. post? ???
T48 SU-57 Used by us and lend leased to russians totally differant design.
Any updates on the P3? xD
Looks awesome. Why Relic dont made a action variant of the game, and one for the one which like historical correctly(grammar isnt correct, i think xD)
Looking pretty good! Get with me on Steam at some point and we can discuss the details of it, I should be able to get it up and running this weekend if it's done on your end.
The only Panzer III's in use by COH's time line were Ausf. N's, which were only used in training platoons. This is probably why Relic didn't make a Panzer III. I had originally thought they were still in combat use, but I was mistaken. A Panzerbeobachtungswagen III is on the list, so if Aidas finishes his Panzer III and makes a PzBeow III state, then I can bundle them all together for those that want to use the PzKpfw III.
Although the general profile is the same, you are confusing the 75mm GMC M3 with the 57mm GMC T48 (aka SU-57). They are both M3-based with a modified anti-tank gun built in. As for my minor projects, I have decided to include them in the list.
Hey Eli - I noticed you didn't have the Daimler Dingo on the projects list.
Do we still have aspirations of getting that textured? I have an animated version of the UV mapped version all ready to go

It's pretty much done, but I'm not really satisfied with the wreck model.
Ahh - those tricky wrecks
I'll send you a PM over the weekend to get sync'ed up with what I can help with
Actually, having just woken up, I misread that as Daimler Armoured Car. I don't remember if the Dingo I have is UV mapped, but it is otherwise animated and ready to go. It is missing a wreck, though.
Yeah - I think we have the same versions for both (and go figure we animated them both too ).
Beef UV mapped the Dingo. So we are in the same boat more or less with those two (except I don't have the wreck or textures for the Daimler AC, but that's neither here nor there since in the end you're looking to put it out here).
Hey eli,
I saw you fixed the m36 misfire for the sherman hull variant. I don't want to sound greedy or something, but is there also a m36 with m10 hull without misfire bug?
It would be great if you could get that one fixed too.
Ahh Thank you... but the PIII, will it have more that PIII(normal) and PzBeow states? I mean different "ausf./ausfuehrung"-en?@TrooperHevy

tankdestroyer did not give me permission to release the M36 "fix", so please ask in his thread for a fix.
Yes. But it all depends on whether or not we get a Panzer III.
TD's thread has been locked a long time ago eli.
who will make the skins for these models?
btw: i like Gnigruhs skins)
HT's and TD's Factory is the one I was referring to.
Ill Do a wreck for the daimler and dingo i think theyre are both on the ftp right Eli ? .
Atm im working on the stuart recce texture.
Also if you have the finished white scout car Eli you could send it for skinning.
Ill try be on steam later tonight or tommorrow night.
I think everybody admires GnigruH's skins, but he was banned a long with Geo, for bitchfighting with each other again and again. He also left CoH completely, so no more skins from him unfortunately, but lets NOT get into that shit again here. If you want to know more you can PM me about it.
I don't think they are on the FTP at the moment, but I can upload them right quick. I'm not sure if I was ever given a White Scout Car, so not sure what you mean?
Still WIP, but thought I'd show the first relatively significant Allied vehicle we have released in a while:
This Autocar 75mm SP mounts the antiquated 75mm Gun M1897A4.
Last edited by eliw00d; 7th Jan 11 at 8:46 PM.
The Autocar model looks good, Eli, from your latest pic, i assume your animating it so that the barrel will be able to elevate right up so we have the option of using it like indirect-fire arty?
Antiquated 1897 gun or not it could still knock a hole in 3 inches of armour at 500 yards. Plus it made an excellant support fire weapon.
@Lethal Dosage
I use real traverse and elevation data on all the models I've worked on, so it should be capable of indirect fire.
Is a Longtom Artillerygun on your list?
Nope. In my opinion, long range artillery can wait, since it can be handled off-map for the most part. Our focus for the short-term is to get more useful models into the game, such as tanks, tank destroyers, armored/scout cars, self-propelled AA mounts, etc.

offtopic- also eliwood your inbox is full
A jagdpanther has a litter of 33 hetzers. 17 hetzers are eaten by at guns. What percentage of hetzers were blown to bits by at guns?
teaming up with eliwood to bring this beast to life, the M1/M2 90mm AA/AT gun
almost finished modeling it
some more Details would be cool
or sccesoirs to make it look more "alive"
it looks quite nice indeed, but it definately could use more detail.
the Gun will also have states that will toggle between the M1 version and the M2 version, and a state to toggle between a wheeled carriage or the one that is shown in the preview.
i will add more details, though i plan to put a lot of the details with textures, since putting to much little objects in and stuff makes UV mapping a big pain
that looks quite high poly... whats your tri count?
The M2 version is pictured, where-as the M1 version lacks the gunshield and could not be depressed to aim at targets lower than 0 degrees. The M1 was still used as an anti-tank gun in Italy, but the inability to aim downwards made it limited in where it could be sited. The M2 was standardized and used in Western Europe.
Was also used as substitute artillery in Italy, but nearly everything was, including tank-destroyer units of M10 Wolverines and M5 3" guns!
Also another interesting factoid.
The M3 75mm half-tracks (The vehicle pictured above) deployed in Italy for use by the 1st Special Service Force also mounted an 81mm mortar in the back. Shell it directly or mortar it indirectly.
Why does it need more detail, the skin can do that, tbh it looks good, so dont clutter it up with a load of unecessarry tris like is being suggested.
As it is id say its 3000 plus, and for a field\AA gun thats plenty.
I agree. Unless there's a detail that protrudes more than a couple inches from a surface, there's no reason to model it into the mesh. Almost all of the handles, bars, rivets, notches, indents, tools, slits, and other details of Relic CoH models are just part of the skin rather than the mesh.
removed some unnecessary parts and made the holster a bit more historically accurate
The thing is, it's only boxes and cilinders right now, like the end of the gun is just a box. I think it would be good searching for some more reference.
Looks fine to me. Perhaps you need to do the searching yourself?
yes the 90mm was a bit, blocky
of course a few things will be off or missing, but thats to reduce the polygon count and to keep things simpler
also, version with the carriage and the m1 version, trying to also keep they poly count lower
60 more tris on top of the recoil mechanism/main block and your done, to match the top of the slide to the one in the picture. Carriage is fine so is gun traverse plate/platform. Make sure theres no faces on it and the underside of the cross mount & platform, that should give you most of those tris back. Apart from those finishing touches (which you knew about anyway) i think its fine. Oh & stabalising plates on the carriage version legs.
also wondering if anyone knows the answer to this. since i havent found any videos of the 90mm firing (which is kinda odd), does anyone one know which part of the barrel recoils
would only the barrel recoild
or was the barrel attached to this thing and the whole thing would recoil
From the composition of the model I would say only the barrel recoiled and the main body would vibrate.
Here's a large picture of 3 of them in Korea. The middle one has its breach retracted a lot further back than the other two that just fired, but this might just mean the breach is slid back when its reloaded, rather than it actually recoiling when fired.
I like your models robotnik!
keep up the great work
also, that AT/AA is a great counterpart to the Flak 36

By: Katie Kirk-The Kirk Holton Team
So often buyers call to tell me that it is time to buy and that they want me to send them information on short sales and foreclosure properties. At this point, I begin by asking why it is that they want to look only at these types of properties? The answer of course is because they think they will get a "deal." It is important that we then begin the discussion about what they define as a deal.
Short sales and foreclosures have grown to comprise roughly 30% of the homes sold in today's market. Buyers need to know that it is not always these types of properties that offer the best discount.
Keep in mind that when dealing with a foreclosure or short sale you are dealing with banks that are trying to recoup as close to possible the current fair market value of the homes they are trying to sell. These properties are often already priced to sell. A traditional seller may price higher than market value to see if they can get someone to bite. Banks want these properties off the books sooner, than later. Therefore list price is usually priced to sell. Some banks even have a rule of rejecting offers more than 10% below the list price.
So let's take a look at a different category of sellers that might be more motivated, and in the end leave a buyer feeling like they got a "deal." Who are the motivated sellers out there? Often times they are people who need to sell…moving out of state for a new job, new addition to the family on the way…people who are emotionally invested to sell. Banks as sellers lack the emotional component. Combine this with a house that has a history of being on the market for several months (high DOM-days on market) and you add to the level of motivation.
In the end, buyers should NOT limit themselves to just foreclosures/short sales. Find the motivated seller, who is emotionally invested to sell where the home has been on the market for a while. Chances are with a good Buyer's Agent you can negotiate a sale and feel great about your purchase. Good luck!!!

What happens to a bullet fired on the moon? | |
First, we know that the bullet has the same initial velocity on the moon as it does on the Earth--that is, it exits the gun at the same speed. But as soon as it leaves the gun, it's a different story. First, the moon bullet doesn't have to contend with air resistance--with so little friction, it can maintain its speed longer than the Earth bullet can (it's analogous to shooting a hockey puck across ice, which has very little friction, and shooting a puck across sand, which has a lot of friction. The puck will travel a lot farther on the ice!) Now, there is the issue of gravity. Assuming your bullet doesn't hit anything (a pretty safe bet on the moon, but don't try this on Earth!) and forgetting about air resistance, the time it takes for the bullet to fall to the ground depends on its initial velocity, the angle at which you shoot it, and the force of gravity. There are several formulas to calculate how long it would take for the moons gravity to bring a bullet to the ground (and we may visit them in a later 4-H Shooting Sports Science Blast!). The simple answer is Neglecting air resistance, the bullet will go about 6 times farther on the moon than on Earth! You might also ask, if the bullet were fired straight up, could it actually escape the moon's gravitational pull and fly off into space? To answer this, we have to compare the moon's "escape velocity" (the minimum velocity (speed) an object needs to escape the moon's gravity) to the bullet's initial velocity. The moon's escape velocity is about 2.38 km/s (about 5300 miles per hour), but a bullet typically travels at only 1 km/s (about 2200 miles per hour). So take cover--even in this case, what goes up must come down! Something to think about!! |

to stray from a group of friends while raging and take the rage elsewhere, usually with a couple other friends. If one decides to travel great distances it is known as an epic rover adventure and should be done so carefully. NEVER GO ROVER ALONE Friend A- "Dude, what happened to you guys last night? One minute you were there the next minute you were gone."
Friend B- "I don't even remember. All I know is me and Bob went rover and ended up at a party all the way across town." Friend A- "Wow, that was an epic rover!" |

Rover with a capital R is a prestigeous make of car in the UK going back to the 1920's and still manufacturing fine cars today. Formaly owned by British Leyland, Honda and BMW they are now independant after a management buy-out. Rover of course gave Land Rover and Range Rover to the world many years ago which are still the benchmark off-roaders. HRH Queen Elizabeth II has always favoured Rover cars for her own private use.

A now defunct British Car maker. Once part of the mighty British Leyland Automotive Corporation, responsible for some of the best British Cars ever made:
The Rover 75, Rover 600, SD1, P4, P5, P6. And some of the Worst: CityRover, 'Streetwise.' Once quoted as "The British equivilent of BMW" in 1994 buy non other than the then Chairman of BMW himself: Bernd Pischetsrieder. A Car Company ultimately undeserving of its tragic demise, but aided by imcompetent, greedy management: Kevin Howe, the 'Phoenix Four', BMW. "I'm gonna run Kevin Howe over in my Rover!"

That white oversized beach-balloon thing off of the cult 1960s psychological British spy TV-show "The Prisoner" (the one with Patrick McGoohan). Rover acts as the disciplinary force in a disguised detention centre for spies ("the village"). Upon finding an escapee, rover pounces on them and knocks them out, then carries/drags them back. Patrick McGoohan almost escaped in the first episode of "The Prisoner", but then Rover caught him and foiled his escape :/

Abilene Reactions to Pope Francis
By: Liz Gonzales
Updated: March 14, 2013
"Great news for all of us: Hispanics, Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, South American. All of us, we're very elated," says Primitive Antonio Hernandez.
The 76-year-old is the first Latin American to be elected pope. Given that 46% of all Catholics are Hispanics, his ethnicity is already creating a special bond.
"I had a lot of calls from my parish saying 'wow, we have a pope of our own," says Father Morugudi.
Pope Francis chose his name in honor of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint for the poor, ecology and animals. His selection has this community very excited.
"I was very happy. Because of Saint Francis, yes. And I started crying, I said 'thank you Pope, thank you, thank you, thank you," says Mary Tovar.
For this church, the spirit of Saint Francis is always all around them.
"He didn't live for himself, he lived for others. And not just in things, his whole life he gave himself to the poor," says Father Morugudi.
Pope Francis has also lived a servant life, always a man of the people.
"He did wash the feet of 12 aids patients and till yesterday, he lived among the poor," says Father Morugudi.
This way of life is what the Catholic Church thinks will take them into the future.
"There's going to be a great change. He's going to open the doors," says Father Morugudi.
As Pope Francis begins his role, his followers eagerly await a brighter tomorrow.

NGE >> History and Archaeology >> Progressive Era to World War II, 1900-1945 >> Events >> World War II in Georgia |
World War II in Georgia Southern states were critical to the war effort during World War II (1941-45) and none more so than Georgia. Some 320,000 Georgians served in the U.S. Armed Forces during World War II,
Economy and the War Effort In 1938 U.S. president Franklin D. Roosevelt called the South "the nation's number one economic problem" and
Whereas other regions experienced high rates of urbanization during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the South remained predominantly rural. A majority of southerners lived and worked on farms, and agricultural employment in the region exceeded national averages by 73 percent. Incomes lagged well behind national norms, and poverty was a common and enduring feature of southern life. The distinctive system of racial segregation circumscribed the freedoms of the region's large black population and distinguished the South as the most "regional" of American regions. As historian Morton Sosna concludes, prior to World War II, the "South was considerably poorer, blacker, and more rural than any other part of the United States." Although they failed to improve southern economic conditions significantly, Roosevelt's New Deal programs nevertheless established a federal commitment to the region's welfare that continued through World War II. As the nation mobilized for war abroad, federal defense dollars flooded southern states in the form of military installations and defense contractors. Nowhere
Defense contractors meanwhile relocated throughout Georgia, providing employment, aiding the state's economic recovery, and allowing civilians to make valuable contributions to the war effort. Marietta's Bell Aircraft plant (also known as Bell Bomber), for example, at its peak put some 28,000 Georgians to work building B-29 bombers, causing the town's population to swell from a modest 8,667 residents in 1940 to 20,687 by the end of the decade. Macon and Milledgeville also welcomed the arrival of new ordnance plants. Georgia's largest civilian contribution to the war effort came from the coastal region, where laborers
In coastal shipyards and at other installations throughout the state, women especially were among the beneficiaries of the wartime employment bonanza. With enlisted men deployed overseas, large numbers of women entered the workforce for the first time to meet increased wartime production needs. Nationwide, the percentage of women in the workforce jumped from 24 percent at the beginning of the war to 36 percent at the war's end. Many found employment in traditionally male-dominated fields, working in such environments as munitions factories and industrial plants. Of the more than 28,000 people employed at the Bell Aircraft plant in Marietta, for instance, 37 percent were women. However, women's wartime employment occurred in a controlled environment that reinforced gender norms even as it allowed women to assume responsibilities ordinarily reserved for men. Black women were often excluded from higher paying jobs altogether. Following the war's conclusion, large numbers of women retired from the workplace and resumed their prewar domestic routines.
Black workers also benefited from the nation's wartime labor shortage and increased production needs, earning higher wages and enjoying greater opportunity for employment, albeit in a segregated labor system. Due to the labor shortage, workers of both races organized in unprecedented numbers, and defense industry workplaces were frequently the sites of negotiations that anticipated the civil rights debates of the 1950s and 1960s. Black workers in Georgia and elsewhere generally adopted conservative goals, lobbying for increased wages and skilled employment rather than mounting an attack on segregation outright, and their efforts often met with mixed results. In Savannah, for instance, black workers at the Southeastern shipyard encountered stiff opposition from management, local political organizations, and the American Federation of Labor, which defended white privilege in the shipbuilding trades. As a consequence, black workers in Savannah failed to organize effectively and were denied access to higher paying skilled positions. In Brunswick, however, black workers at the J. A. Jones Shipyard successfully aligned themselves with the Industrial Union of Marine and Shipbuilding Workers of America, thereby securing some access to skilled labor positions. Even those black workers excluded from skilled positions nonetheless benefited from defense industry employment because federal guidelines mandated higher wages than were otherwise available locally. At the Bell Aircraft plant in Marietta, for example, unskilled laborers commanded higher wages than had previously been available to black
Following the cessation of hostilities in Europe and the Pacific, Georgia's booming urban centers continued to thrive, effectively parlaying their wartime recovery into postwar prosperity. Between 1946 and 1955 some 500 new factories began production throughout the state, opening doors of opportunity and dramatically altering Georgia's economic landscape. At the same time, the mechanization of the state's agriculture diminished the need for farm laborers, precipitating an urban migration that depopulated much of Georgia's countryside. As a consequence, more Georgians were employed in manufacturing than farming by 1950. The rural exodus that attended the state's economic development disrupted the stability and cohesion of community life for those Georgians who were forced to find employment in urban locales. However, while many expressed regret at the passing of the old order, most Georgians welcomed the perks of postwar prosperity. Over the course of the next two decades, wages continued to rise, in part because the federal War Labor Board buoyed regional wages during World War II, and Georgians enjoyed ever-increasing standards of living. By 1960 the state's per capita income had reached 73 percent of the national average, whereas in 1940 it stood at a meager 57 percent. Rates of homeownership increased, as did the percentage of citizens who enjoyed indoor plumbing, electricity, and air conditioning. Politics and Civil Rights Prior to World War II, Georgia's politics were profoundly undemocratic and incompatible with social progress. The white primary, which barred black participation in Democratic primaries, effectively disfranchised African Americans until its abolition in 1946. At the same time, the county unit system enabled sparsely populated rural counties to exercise undue influence in statewide primaries by limiting the electoral significance of Georgia's expanding metropolitan areas. When combined with an antiprogressive tenor in Georgia's politics more generally, the white primary and the county unit system allowed county seat oligarchs to dominate state politics until the middle of the twentieth century. Perhaps more than any other figure in state government, Eugene Talmadge personified the demagoguery and corruption of Georgia's politics during this period.
After becoming embroiled in the notorious Cocking Affair during his third term, however, Talmadge was defeated in the 1942 Democratic primary by reform candidate Ellis Arnall. Talmadge's defeat was likely aided by his well-known enmity against President Roosevelt, and by the desire of voters to maintain good relations with Washington, D.C., during wartime. Arnall recognized the need for warm relations with Roosevelt and quickly passed a resolution supporting the president's conduct of the war. During his four years (1943-47) as governor, Arnall, who was the first governor to serve a four-year term, amassed an impressive record of reform by increasing education spending, managing the state's economic recovery, and balancing the state's budget for the first time in more than a century. Despite his accomplishments, Arnall could not convince the legislature to change an amendment prohibiting gubernatorial succession and was thus barred from seeking reelection in 1946. In any case, his unwillingness to fight a 1946 judicial ruling mandating the end of the white primary would have likely hampered his reelection chances. Talmadge, however, was not similarly inclined and vowed to restore the white primary during his successful 1946 gubernatorial campaign. His subsequent death following the election, and the notorious "three governors controversy" that ensued, suggested that Georgia's politics might remain corrupt but colorful during the postwar period, and the election of Talmadge's son, Herman, as governor two years later confirmed the worst fears of many observers. As the state's chief executive, Herman Talmadge followed in his father's footsteps as a defender of the "southern way of life," thereby precluding any meaningful civil rights reform. In other respects, however, the younger Talmadge proved to be an able administrator, promoting economic development, increasing the state revenues, building infrastructure, and establishing a statewide public school system. Nevertheless, his dependence on patronage and machine politics did little to alter the fundamental tenets of the old political order, and his staunch defense of segregation did even less to accommodate racial progress. However, while the pace of change was slow, Georgia's politics eventually modernized during the postwar period. As wealth became increasingly concentrated in the state's urban centers, middle-class reformers challenged the leadership of county-seat elites and ultimately reshaped Georgia's political economy. The state's veterans were at the vanguard of this movement. Having left home, in many cases for the first time, to defend freedom abroad, soldiers often returned with a renewed commitment to political freedom and a critical perspective on local politics. Although they did not always speak with a common voice, politically active veterans did demonstrate a general inclination toward progressive policies, good government, economic development, and racial moderation. While significant civil rights reform would require federal intervention, the modernizing reforms of the postwar period and the abolition of the county unit system in 1962 represented important changes in Georgia's politics. Black Georgians were well represented among those veterans who turned to politics after the war. In Georgia and elsewhere, prominent African American spokesmen linked the sacrifices made by black servicemen to the conditions that awaited them upon their return to southern states. If these soldiers fought to promote democracy and freedom abroad, the argument went, they surely deserved the same at home. In Georgia the 1946 abolishment of the white primary contributed to reform efforts by opening the doors to large-scale black participation in statewide politics for the first time since Reconstruction. Voter leagues flourished throughout the state, and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and other civil rights organizations dramatically increased their memberships. By the time of the 1946 gubernatorial contest, more than 100,000 black Georgians were registered to vote. In many cases, however, Georgia's black voters encountered stiff resistance when heading to the polls. Because large numbers of black Georgians relocated to urban areas to find employment during and after the war, the county unit system limited black electoral influence by conferring undue weight to rural votes. Moreover, such groups as the neofascist Columbians and the Ku Klux Klan discouraged black voting with the threat of violence. Despite these obstacles, however, large numbers of black Georgians persisted in their efforts to vote. Because the county unit system limited their influence in statewide elections, black voters made their greatest impact in municipal contests, particularly in Atlanta, where black leaders A. T. Walden and John Wesley Dobbs formed the Atlanta Negro Voters League in 1949. Their efforts consolidated the city's black votes into a powerful voting bloc capable of determining the outcomes of municipal elections. Suggested Reading Numan V.

Can Leinster become the first club in the eighteen-year history of the Heineken Cup to claim a hat-trick of titles? Why not?!
Last season, the Irish giants became the first team since Leicester - ten years ago - to defend their European crown, but three consecutive titles would raise the bar significantly higher. A fourth title in five years would lift them alongside Toulouse as Europe's must successful club.
Joe Schmidt's team have lost just once in this competition in their last 18 matches. Significantly, that loss came against Clermont Auvergne, against whom they have been drawn once again.
Most of the pre-tournament talk has, unfortunately, revolved around the crisis sparked by the English TV rights deal and the need for a revamp of how teams qualify. Whatever the outcome of the prolonged negotiations, it's certain that Europe's biggest competition will have a new look in 2014.
The need for change is clear to all who are willing to see it. While Leinster's army of Irish internationals have played a game or two since returning from holiday, Morgan Parra was on the field for every minute of Clermont's first seven games this season while Vincent Clerc was only a few minutes short of doing the same for Toulouse.
Of course part of the blame must lie with the French for having two extra teams in their domestic league - and thus a ridiculously long season - but the disparity in resources and effort required to compete for silverware in the Top 14 or the Premiership compared to the Pro12 is obvious.
Harlequins and Biarritz won't be complaining too much though because being grouped with Zebre and Connacht means they really would have no excuse for not making it through to the last eight.
No such luck for Leicester and Toulouse however. The 'Group of Death,' which includes Pro12 champions Ospreys and the ever-improving Treviso, is sure to see at least one of the big guns miss out on a quarter-final spot.
The usual suspects make up the list of title contenders - Leinster, Toulouse, Clermont - with the notable addition of Toulon, Harlequins and last year's finalists Ulster, who many feel are now Ireland's strongest club. After two poor European seasons, Munster must now be considered outsiders along with the likes of Leicester, Northampton and Saracens.
With an all-star squad that features internationals in almost every position, including the bench, Toulon are many pundits' pick to wrestle the trophy away from Dublin. Bernard Laporte's team had one weakness last year, the scrum. The solution? Import Andrew Sheridan and Genith Jenkins, add Bakkies Botha and Simon Shaw in the second row to lend a hand...problem solved!
Most importantly, the mix of big names is starting to gel with long-server squad members like Jonny Wilkinson and Joe van Nierkerk providing the glue. They've lost just once in eight games in the Top 14 - with a below-strength team away to Toulouse - so everything suggests they have all the tools required to get the job done.
The English challenge is likely to come from Quins. The Premiership champions showed they had the beating of Europe's best with a victory in Toulouse last year but undid all their good work by running out of steam against Connacht. With a settled squad and the confidence gained from their maiden domestic title, they represent the best bet to bring the Cup back to England for the first time since 2007. Given their draw, Chris Robshaw and co. will be gunning to be one of the top seeds after the pool stages.
All that said, it's only October and predictions in this tournament are seldom worth much. A long season lies ahead, it should be fascinating.

In one of his comedy routines, Eddie Izzard remarks, regarding the pilgrim voyage to America: "They sailed from Plymouth and landed in Plymouth – how lucky is that?" As always, Izzard brings the laughs, but it is kind of cool to stand on the place the pilgrims left from waaaay back in 1620. And you can, of course, do just such a unique activity while meandering through the boats and docks in the swarthy sea town of Plymouth, England. Sure, Plymouth is touristy, with markets and family-friendly Pavilions where you can ice skate and buy a fisherman magnet, but what's most fun about Plymouth is wandering around and meeting some of the locals, who are a hardy and friendly bunch, at the local pubs in the evening. But totally walk around the Smeaton Lighthouse and the Barbican area, where you can take in historic architecture as you stroll toward the Plymouth Hoe (a name that prompted many giggles from my group of friends; yes, we were that mature:)) and watch the sprays of water surge from the wild Plymouth Sound. Check out the Royal William Yard if you're into the history of the Royal Navy (or the Maritime Museum might do ya), and wilderness lovers can get some nature on the cheap at the expansive moor-like (Plymouth is near the moors – try to spot a moor pony!) Mount Edgcumbe Country Park, which overlooks the River Tamar. You can get some of the most delicious fish and chips in Plymouth, and let a local buy you a beer and have a chat – Plymouth is an enjoyable, laid-back town with a sailor's swagger and plenty for any traveler to enjoy.

Isaac's slowness delays clearing of debris, increases flooding risk

Isaac thrashed East Baton Rouge and surrounding parishes Wednesday with hurricane-force winds and torrential rains, downing dozens of trees, leaving tens of thousands without power and posing a threat of serious flooding for some areas in the days to come.
The slow-moving storm, which first made landfall late Tuesday in Plaquemines Parish, moved back out over the Gulf and shifted west before coming ashore as a hurricane around 3:15 a.m. near Port Fouchon. It then began its slow march north, wreaking havoc along its path.
Due to Isaac's slow speed, East Baton Rouge Parish Department of Public Works ordered most of its crews to "shelter in place" rather than dispatching them to assess damage and remove debris, DPW interim Director David Guillory said Wednesday night.
DPW had "four or five" crews out Wednesday night to deal with emergencies, Guillory said.
Some of the crews were traveling with utility company personnel in case they encountered downed power lines, he said.
"We won't be able to do a good damage assessment until tomorrow," Guillory said Wednesday.
Guillory said he expects Isaac to leave significant damage in its wake.
He said the storm brought wind gusts of 60 mph in Baton Rouge and carried sustained winds of 45 mph.
"Considering the wind's been blowing this hard for this long, we are going to have widespread damage," Guillory said.
No significant flooding in East Baton Rouge Parish had been reported as of Wednesday night, but more than 120 trees were reported down, Guillory said.
Isaac was downgraded from a hurricane to a tropical storm around 2 p.m., but high winds and heavy rain were expected to remain in the area overnight.
Mayor-President Kip Holden declared a 6 p.m. until 6 a.m. curfew in effect for Wednesday night and Thursday morning.
Officials said they would consider Thursday whether to extend the curfew through Thursday night, he said.
As of 8:30 Wednesday night, more than 650,000 Entergy customer statewide were without power, including 82,000 in East Baton Rouge Parish, according to spokeswoman Sheila Pounders.
One of two Entergy electrical feeds that power Baton Rouge General Medical Center Mid City failed on Wednesday, but that feed was being replaced by power from generators, said Nicole Kleinpeter, a spokeswoman for Baton Rouge General Medical Center.
Hospital officials are waiting for a part from out of state called a "relay switch" that is needed to balance the two electrical feeds into the hospital, Kleinpeter said. She said late Wednesday that the part should be arriving "anytime now."
The power failure of one of the two Entergy feeds did not cause any disruption in service to patients, Kleinpeter said. She said the hospital was still treating and accepting emergency patients Wednesday night.
Entergy crews were aware of the problem and were working to restore power to the hospital, said Sheila Pounders, an Entergy spokeswoman.
Livingston Parish
Extended rains and additional storm surge could lead to extensive flooding across much of southern Livingston Parish, according to fire department officials.
The National Weather Service issued flood warnings Wednesday for the Amite River at Bayou Manchac Point and Denham Springs.
The Bayou Manchac warning was from late Wednesday until further notice while the Denham Springs warning was from late Thursday night to Sunday evening.
The Amite River at Bayou Manchac is expected to rise above flood stage Thursday morning and will continue to rise to a stage near 13 feet on Sunday afternoon.
The Amite at Denham Springs is expected to rise above flood stage by Friday morning and will continue to rise to near 32.5 feet by Saturday morning. The river will fall below flood stage by Sunday afternoon.
A noontime check of a Killian water gauge on the Tickfaw River showed the river up 4.1 feet and Livingston Parish District 2 Fire Chief Brian Drury said he expected to see another few feet before the day was over.
Anything above 5 to 5.5 feet would cause extensive flooding in the area, he said.
The King's Point subdivision already was seeing flooding early Wednesday afternoon, with Cypress Drive, which parallels the river, completely submerged.
The Amite River also was on the rise Wednesday, with waters coming up onto the banks near the Clio Bridge on La. 22. The water was expected to overtake at least part of the highway on the west side of the bridge by 5 p.m., said Mark Harrell, Livingston Parish director of emergency preparedness.
Drury was particularly concerned about those projections, which could mean splitting of his fire district in half.
If La. 22 becomes impassable, District 2 firefighters will have to split up between Springfield and Killian — with no way to come to each other's aid at the two ends, he said.
Serving flooded areas like King's Point could also prove difficult for a district that doesn't yet have a boat from which to fight fires or rescue residents.
"If the water comes up as predicted, we'll have a hundred homes we can't access by fire truck," Drury said.
The district has bought a boat for just such a purpose, but it is not yet equipped with a motor and pumper, Drury said. Outfitting the rig will cost $30,000-$40,000, and grants for such projects have been few and far between, he said.
Ascension Parish
Ascension Parish President Tommy Martinez said East Ascension drainage workers pumped down the level of water in area bayous to create storage capacity.
Parish officials believe Isaac will be a "huge rain event," but parish employees are manning the pumps 24 hours per day, Martinez said.
He also expressed some concern about 8-foot tides expected in Lake Maurepas as Hurricane Isaac draws closer and said the water levels would be monitored.
He noted that Hurricane Gustav in 2008 came within three feet of over-topping the critical Marvin J. Braud Pumping Station in the McElroy Swamp.
The station drains 76 square miles of East Ascension. Overtopping would shut down the station's five 1,000-cubic-feet-per-second pumps and result in major flooding west all the way toward Airline Highway, Martinez said.
Bill Roux, East Ascension Drainage director, said 8-foot tides on Lake Maurepas mean likely 4- to 6-foot tides at the pumping station because swamp and marsh between the lake and the station hold a lot of that water.
Roux said his concern is the tides will rise in the coming days; the tides can act like a dam, blocking rainfall draining from the upper Amite River Basin and forcing the rain runoff to back up into tributaries in Ascension Parish.
Tangipahoa Parish
Tangipahoa Parish President Gordon Burgess said storm surge has pushed water from Lake Ponchartrain over the railroad tracks at Manchac.
"I'm really worried about the homes and business there," Burgess said Wednesday night. "Right now is the worst I've seen all day in terms of rain and wind."
Advocate staff writers David Mitchell, Heidi Kinchen and Bob Anderson contributed to this report.

A large number of people may wish to perform an energy price comparison to find a better deal if they feel their current supplier does not care about them.
According to a survey conducted by energyhelpline.com, 88 per cent of Brits believe their energy supplier is not interested in their needs or concerns.
Director of the independent price comparison site Mark Todd said: "There is a widespread public perception that the privatised energy market is not working for consumers and that suppliers sadly seem to prioritise profits over customers."
He added that while steps have been taken to simplify energy tariffs and eliminate confusing jargon, there is still a long way to go before gas and electricity providers can restore the faith of the public.
Recently British Gas announced plans to boost customer confidence by allowing direct debit users to take greater control over their bill payments.

I love the chairs however I am only 5' 4" and when I sit, my feet are almost off the floor! I am not certain how long I could sit with only my toes on the floor.I cannot think of any chairs I had before where my feet were almost off the floor so I find that rather odd. I can sit forward though. Thanks again. Everyone who has seen my new table and chairs loves them. :)

On 28-29 August 2009 in Manchester, activist geographers from around the world will share experiences, insights and methods in relation to defending people's 'right to stay put' and resisting gentrification, displacement and privatisation as part of urban regeneration schemes.
'Third time lucky' was Lammas' motto as they resubmitted their planning application in November 2008. Despite being beleaguered by Byzantine bureaucratic bungling the group remain committed to developing nine eco-smallholdings and a community hub building on their first site in Pembs, Wales and the land purchase is going ahead.
A new book on Low Impact Development has just been published. Edited by Jenny Pickerill and Larch Maxey, with contributions from Simon Fairlie, Tony Wrench, Simon Dale and many more, Low Impact Development: The Future in our Hands explores the radical form of sustainable housing and livelihood in tune with the natural environment and offering innovative solutions for the environmental, social and economic challenges of the 21st century.
Engaging Geography is a seminar series (funded by the Economic and Social Research Council) that aims to explore and respond to key challenges facing geography in 2008 and beyond. Our first seminar will be held on Friday and Saturday January 23rd and 24th, 2009 at the Star and Shadow Cinema in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK (see www.starandshadow.org.uk ): 'How did that happen?' The creation of time and space for public geographies.
University of Leeds, Rupert Beckett Lecture Theatre, 6-8pm.
The teach-in will examine the origins of the credit crisis and why it has become so severe; the policies now being pursued nationally and internationally; and the long-term economic and political implications, particularly in relation to financial regulation and global governance.
The Permaculture Association (Britain) is a small education and research charity that supports individuals and groups to learn more about the theory and practice of permaculture. It is currently advertising two vacancies for a Project Coordinator and Finance Clerk at its Leeds office. Closing date: 27 June 2008. More information can be downloaded from its website
A former PhD student and current employee Nottingham University faces deportation to Algeria on 1 June following his unjust arrest under the Terrorism Act 2000 after he printed an Al Qaeda manual as a favour for a research student. Read on and see the Free Hicham Yezza campaign.
A new book has been published bringing together the diverse stories about many of the UK's social centres, along with thoughts on their effectiveness, the problems they encounter, and the political ideas they encapsulate. What's this place? has been written by activists involved in social centres with support from the Autonomous Geographies project.
