If you are looking for a casual black earring to wear with everything, look no further. These earrings are the perfect size, not too big, not too small. They're light and comfortable. Have worn them non stop since receiving them.

I love these! Avoided buying clip ons even though my ear holes are messed up so that I can't wear regular earrings because I thought that they would look bad and hurt. These are great looking and very comfortable for clip ons. They still do pinch a little, but definitely not bad and the mechanism feels high quality. Glad I treated myself!

Nice looking and goes with many outfits. I have thick lobes and often clip earrings pinch. The clasps on these are a bit weak so I worry if they will fall off. However, after maybe 10 wearings they haven't so maybe not a problem. If you have thick lobes, these may not stay on as well.

Stormers aim to smother Steyn
10 Jun 2011
JON CARDINELLI chats to Robbie Fleck about the Stormers' plans to neutralise Morne Steyn.
The Bulls have racked up some monumental victories over the past few seasons, and Steyn has so often been the difference in the matches that matter. He kicked a difficult penalty to win the 2009 Currie Cup semi-final at Newlands. When the Bulls hosted the Stormers in the 2010 Super 14 final in Soweto, Steyn and Fourie du Preez produced a tactical kicking masterclass to compromise the Cape side's defence.
But Steyn was well contained when the Stomers visited Loftus Versfeld earlier this season. The home pack was bullied, and so the Bulls' halfbacks struggled to impose themselves without front-foot possession.
It's for this reason that Fleck isn't too worried about the Steyn factor ahead of Saturday's game. It's a massive fixture in terms of what's at stake for the Bulls and Stormers, but the formula for success will be much the same.
'The Bulls tend to be more adventurous in the early stages, they like to try a few different things at the start of a game. But it shouldn't take them too long to revert to what they do best. They have a game plan that has won trophies, and when they execute it, like they did in that game against the Sharks, they are hard to stop,' Fleck told keo.co.za.
'Their forwards really come at you and they try to put even more pressure on you with their fantastic kicking game. But we have to back ourselves to stand up to that challenge. We have managed to nullify the effect of their kicking game in the past, so it's by no means a daunting prospect. It all starts with fronting up physically, that will go a long way to negating the impact of their kickers.'
The Stormers have opted to bench their best tactical kicker in Dewaldt Duvenage, and not much is known of Kurt Coleman's ability with the boot. The 21-year-old flyhalf did well in front of goal last week, kicking five from six, but wasn't asked to kick much out of hand.
Fleck believes Coleman has the full range of skills to be a success, and added that he should receive the necessary platform from his forwards.
'He was nervous in that Brumbies game, you could see it in the way he played. On occasion, he sat too deep in the pocket instead of taking the ball flat and getting involved.
'We told him that we wanted him to take more control in the next match against the Rebels, and his response was incredible. He bought into the change of mindset and really exceeded everybody's expectations.
'Obviously a Stormers vs Bulls game is a very different prospect, but he's made an improvement in all departments, so there's good reason to feel encouraged.'
On Wednesday, Schalk Burger highlighted the Bulls' experience and ability to win tight matches as a real threat to the Stormers' chances. Fleck agreed that the Bulls shouldn't be taken lightly, but pointed to the growth of this Stormers team over the course of their 2011 campaign. If they fall short this weekend, it won't be for a lack of unity.
'We matured as a group on that tour to Australasia. It goes to show how a tour can bring people closer together.
'By the end, we were in a really good head space and were playing some decent rugga too. There were some difficult times and we were honest with ourselves after the match against the Chiefs, but that only made us tighter as group.'

10 Jun 2011, 21:26 pm@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-300: LOL. Yeah man, go ahead.
10 Jun 2011, 21:28 pmOnly problem is the finishing of the Bokkies. They try to many things instead of doing the basics.
10 Jun 2011, 21:30 pmTwo for Botha, two for Venter.
10 Jun 2011, 21:36 pmWhere is everyone on the eve of the big clash?
10 Jun 2011, 21:41 pmBulls have the momentum behind them.. to all intents and purposes the forces of equilibrium should be with the Bully Brekers in the Nuweland Cauldron tomorrow.
However there remain some unnerving negating factors to their surmised superiority
It all hinges around these… can Schalk Burger get out of the shadow of his volk messiah like status and deliver for once when it truly counts? Big If.
Will Stormers be adequately covered to withstand the immeasurable force of a total Bully Breker cohesive onslaught through tight five for total duration of 80 mins? Big If.
Backs won't come much into play unless from breakdown or broken play scenarios its gonna be a gain line and breakdown trench war of mammoth megatons of muscle and bone crunch exploitative explosiveness.
Januarie and Coleman don't phase or worry me, but front row, full back, tight five, captaincy credibility, and particularly Schalk Burger's aptitude for the boneshaker occasion and his mental ability to contain the momentum and meet the megalithic onslaught with quiet steady unflinching resolve and fortitude do.
10 Jun 2011, 21:43 pmJy's Mnr Johan Fourie van uit die VSA … jawohl?
10 Jun 2011, 21:46 pm@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-305: We all know it will be a close game, but Stormers will take it. You can sleep in peace today.
Stormers have a clear advantage in the mid-field, and I think they will shade the breakdown area. Frontrows are well matched.
10 Jun 2011, 21:47 pm@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-306: LOL. Nope. Why don't you give me 10 names and I'll break it down to 3.
10 Jun 2011, 21:47 pm@TheAgent(TheAgent)-308: If I'm in that 10.
10 Jun 2011, 21:49 pmPedantic little French cnut
10 Jun 2011, 21:50 pmSecond half disappointing.
10 Jun 2011, 21:51 pmBully Brekers know just how much of a life line their mascot Pro die Lagoete gave them last week… more than just a 4 point win… he actually handed them a gilt edged plate of fortuitous favoritism by which to actually go the whole entire hog for one last ditch effort at another bid for their hallowed legacy of brekery supremacy
They know what a gift of manna from out of heaven that was, and now they wanna try capitalize on the favor, one little nonchalant excuse of a megalithic mistake by a partisan non professional official and it practically turned their fortunes from a never never land hopeless extrication from nowhere into a fully fledged opportunity to once again aim for the crown.
Stormers better stop the steam train right there in its tracks or there's no knowing where it could end up next.
10 Jun 2011, 21:53 pmA bit of balls from the Scots, but sooooo many handling errors.
10 Jun 2011, 21:53 pm@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-312: You have a way with words. What do you think of the talent in this Baby Bok side?
10 Jun 2011, 21:55 pmI think your guys were just out muscled. You can see that some of our guys eat red meat while still in the womb.
Hard luck on this one, Jock.
But we stand side by side tomorrow.
10 Jun 2011, 21:55 pm@JockBok(JockBok)-313: Scots kept on trying, but clearly not up to it. Respect the way they play.
Bokkies too many handling errors as you say. They did well in the first 40, but as with all the SA teams they lose concentration when they are so far ahead.
10 Jun 2011, 21:56 pm@JockBok(JockBok)-313: Are you Scottish?
10 Jun 2011, 21:57 pmSleep well guys, if you can. Tomorrow is a massive game. May the best team win.
10 Jun 2011, 22:00 pm@I am a stormer(I am a stormer)-315:
How about that TH who came on second half? He's the size of a f.cking hippo
The Boks missed Goosen when he went off, second half was a bit disjointed and just far too many handling errors by the young Jockies to allow a build up of momentum.
But the second string front row steadied up the scrum a bit and stopped the Boks using it as an attacking platform. Bring on the Poms
10 Jun 2011, 22:00 pmcouldn't see the baby boks was it on S1 or where?
how did lock Etsebeth and center Jordaan do, if they played?
10 Jun 2011, 22:01 pm@JockBok(JockBok)-319: What was the England/Ireland score?
10 Jun 2011, 22:02 pmYes. I live in SA but the heart takes over when the fun starts
10 Jun 2011, 22:03 pm@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-320:
Both had big games as did the no.8. Was on S1.
Good luck to the little Jocks for the rest of the tourney.
10 Jun 2011, 22:08 pm@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-320:
It was on SS1.
Boks were a class above but it turned out quite a scrappy game. Scots played with heart but that didn't hide the lack of skill they had. Boks were far and away the better side but handling errors stopped any kind of spectacle for the Boks, and any kind of momentum from the Jocks.

Jock, you missed your chance to say"Och Aye in the Noo"…..bet a Scot has never said that on Keo!!
10 Jun 2011, 22:11 pm@I am a stormer(I am a stormer)-323:
TAOK da big bruiser up tomorrow.. its all been psyched up already, now just to watch the cookie unfold and crumble either this a way or that… its already a done deal where the cards are long dealt, now just a case of waiting for the hands to show what they got and what they been dealt. Aces high wins out at the lottery stakes.
10 Jun 2011, 22:13 pm@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-327:
Hi Skop, you will have your hands full with Grant, JustRugby and Robzim…..especially if the Stormers win.It could get very nosiy!!
10 Jun 2011, 22:13 pm@I am a stormer(I am a stormer)-323:
The number 8 Botha is quite a prospect. He had a great game. Is he with the Bulls?
But no denying the boy for the future and the big time is Johan Goosen. Maybe I've heard too much about him, but man he's got the goods to make it huge. The whole tempo of the game changed when he went off.
10 Jun 2011, 22:14 pm@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-327:
I am going to phone Robzim to get a bit of 'atmosphere' !!!Hoping to call when Bulls pull into the lead!!
10 Jun 2011, 22:16 pm@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-327:
Are at Newlands tom? If so, I want to hear you.
The Stormpies can do it.
10 Jun 2011, 22:17 pmHoots mon!!! It's a braw bicht moonlicht nicht the nicht!!!
10 Jun 2011, 22:19 pmHe's a good prospect. First time I've seen him play. He's got a good step, quick hands, not afraid to take it up. Definitely one to watch.
10 Jun 2011, 22:20 pmLol. So how did you go in your bru pick? I hope you've picked the Bulls so i can overtake you
10 Jun 2011, 22:20 pmExpect a "missed call".
10 Jun 2011, 22:23 pmMaybe you know me a little already maybe you don't… but back at the ranch in spite of all my hallelujah chorusing for Stormers to do the deed and demolish the Flou Nulle in hulle glory in, I'm actually quite a pragmatic sod, I take swings and roundabouts how they are ordained,
I know enough at my debilitated old age to realize rugby games are neither matters of life and death nor are they even matters of stringent urgency in relation to who rules what. In short if the gods so wish that Matfield or Burger come out victorious tomorrow, its already decided in the realms where such stuff transpires and all the little earthlings go wee wee whizzing around in circles of glee or else in abject misery at the inevitable outcome, which has by virtue of force of action and reaction long already been played out in the fields of where such dreams manifest and materialize from.
10 Jun 2011, 22:26 pmyip hands full I guess it shall be.. so better it be a happy full of hands and not a miserable set.
@I am a stormer(I am a stormer)-331:
I reckon we gonna do it, in spite of the marauding monstrous momentum from the north.
10 Jun 2011, 22:32 pm@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-336:
Whether it has been decided or not before a ball has been kicked, we mere mortals have no idea of the result and this is where the fun comes in. But for me, it's 80 minutes of random happenings and far too many variables to calculate who the victor will be. And there lies the beauty of the spectacle that will be played out at 6pm SA time tomorrow afternoon.
Win or lose, it means nothing in the grand scale of things other than making the evening, and maybe a day or two afterwards, much more enjoyable and keo.co.za a bit more fun for a while.
10 Jun 2011, 22:54 pmyip that about sums it up, a random cause and effect escapade of give and take exhibit of trial and effort endeavor, men pitting and flexing their muscles in attempt at showcasing their masculinity and bravery, skills and dexterity. And for this we enjoy the spectacle come either the victory or vanquish the only thing that ultimately gets bruised at end of the exercise if anything is the pitifully frail ego of falsely acclaimed identity.
But Stormers to fok these brekers op come what may, any which way the mercy killing spree goes, unless of course destiny wills it otherwise.
10 Jun 2011, 22:58 pmYou should try ice hockey as an exercise in random ricocheting reactionary cause and effect mayhem, pinball don't even come vaguely close.. and rugby pales into a melodramatic drone of slow ***-for-tat do unto others as ye would have done unto you sowing and reaping showboating affair in comparison. I heard ice hockey remains the mega mayhem sport of all mega mayhem sports devised by the neanderthal race called man.
11 Jun 2011, 01:17 amSteyn does not need any help to be neutralized.

11 Jun 2011, 08:51 amSkop
I'm guessing you've never been to an ice-hockey match then ? It's an absolutely thrilling Luve spectator sport of incredible skill executed at high pace. Neither does it pander to the PC BS that rugby has succumbed to whereby players can sort out nonsense between themselves without spending the next few weeks on the sidelines. And it's major sport for far more countries than rugby can even aspire to.
11 Jun 2011, 09:37 amyeah that's what I'm saying BP ice hockey remains the ultimate mega mayhem sport devised by man. less PC interest and fewer rules and less structured interference and influence by refs.
The puck can ricochet and travel any which way at lightening speed where there is absolutely no foregone conclusion as to who has the inside lane advantage. The fastest team sport on the planet and none of the preconditioned precursors to preordained supremacy.
Though I never been to an ice hockey game I believe it to be the ultimate in absolute thrill per second mayhem and my point was all this predicting bull dust becomes even less significant due to that puck almost developing a will of its own being guided and directed by the sticks of the players and traveling at speeds and trajectorys at lightening velocity which renders the notion of cause and effect in almost the ultimate reactionary condition to be the primary mover and motivation in play.
Saying sport is the vehicle where action and reaction gets played out and witnessed on a field of activity and where allegiances and boasting rights are a consequence of occurrence outside of the passionately persuasive supporters direct influence, and ice hockey shows that up at its ultimate non influenced reality.
11 Jun 2011, 09:46 amthis won't be a tight game.
stormers will take it comfortably.
not only are the stormers backs much better than the bulls……….
but the forwards are better too.
11 Jun 2011, 09:58 amthat's quite a statement to make at this juncture charo boetie lets hope you spot on the money.
I lie, I have been to a live ice hockey game albeit a subdued local saffa version at far reduced skills levels and speeds to those exhibited by their north american or canadian or russian or swedish counterparts.

@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-346:You missed the Finnish, who of course won the World Championship last month beating Sweden. I feel obliged to mention it as I'm working with Finns for the last couple of years
Last months WC was like our RWC to them obviously. Luckily it was on French satellite tv so they got to watch some of the games, but usually they get some guy in Finland to point his web cam at the tv and crowd round a skype connection when the games are on.
I used to go and watch the UK league stuff probably 20 years ago when it was full of Yanks and Canooks in their off season. It's difficult to explain just how fast and edge of the seat stuff it really is.

12 Jun 2011, 03:51 am@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-344:
OK then, fella, I got you wrong there. I thought you were veering towards a 'skittle sticks' analogy – heh heh.
Ice Hockey was the last major sport I had on my list of 'Must See's'. Caught a NY Rangers game at MSG a couple of years ago – AWESOME ! It was very blue-collar, truckies and mullets/'hockey-hair' everywhere. I knew I was in the right place when the 2 x 6/7-yr old girls beside me were on their feet in the 1st 10mins shouting "fight fight fight !!!" as a couple of players laid in to each other – brilliant ! It was also noticeable how expensive all the merchandise was compared to rugby or football – team shirts were USD350+ compared to a ManU shirt (for eg) at about £45 (ie USD40) – which seemed at odds with it clearly being a working mans sport.
Absolutely brilliant game tho – Im hooked and now try and catch every game i can.
spot on, again, there Charo……catch a wave, bruv !

Is there a pattern you would like for Bernat to design?
I would like to have a good simple pattern for a basic cardigan that buttons. Something I could grab on my way out the door, that would work well with most of my wardrobe. I want it to have the option of a lapel collar that I could wrap around my neck on chilly days....and buttons and buttonholes would need to be all the way up through the collar. I would also like for the cardigan to have comfy pockets. It would be nice to have two different versions: one in worsted weight, and one in chunky weight.
What about your pattern ideas?

Who Do You Think Should Run for Kerry's Seat?
After President Obama's selection of John Kerry as Secretary of State, there's a lot of interest in the senior senator's seat.
With U.S. Senator John Kerry as President Barack Obama's pick for Secretary of State, it's anyone's guess who will run for the seat in a special election next summer. Kerry was nominated by Obama on Dec. 21. If Kerry is appointed, Governor Deval Patrick will appoint an interim senator, who will be named to the position before the special election. Names have already been dropped locally and from afar. Names include actor and Cambridge native Ben Affleck, but he has already said he's not interested in running for the seat Kerry has held since 1985. Earlier in December, U.S. Representative Edward Markey told reporters at Malden City Hall, he would "seriously consider" running for Kerry's seat in the U.S. Senate. On Thursday, he made it …

Daniel out, Potgieter in
22 Aug 2012
Willem Alberts will start at No 8 against Argentina in Mendoza with Jacques Potgieter at blindside flank.
Keegan Daniel was the Bok eighthman at Newlands but was substituted shortly after half-time and has been relegated to the bench. Adriaan Strauss, as expected, replaces the injured Bismarck du Plessis at hooker, while Tiaan Liebenberg has beaten Craig Burden to jersey No 16.
'It was a difficult decision between Jacques and Keegan, but we have gone with horses for courses this time,' said Bok coach Heyneke Meyer. 'We're expecting it will be very physical early in the game and it might open up later, which perfectly suits the strongpoints of both Jacques and Keegan.
'The Pumas also mauled quite well in Cape Town and we were not happy with the defence of their mauls, so with the extra weight Jacques brings, we will have to ensure we stop their drives.'
Bryan Habana injured his left ankle against Argentina in Cape Town and passed a fitness test on Wednesday morning.
'Having Bryan is obviously a big boost as we've lost a number of players with lots of experience after JP Pietersen, Pierre Spies and Bismarck du Plessis already had to withdraw from our squad,' said Meyer.
South Africa – 15 Zane Kirchner, 14 Bryan Habana, 13 Jean de Villiers (c), 12 Frans Steyn, 11 Lwazi Mvovo, 10 Morné Steyn, 9 Francois Hougaard, 8 Willem Alberts, 7 Jacques Potgieter, 6 Marcell Coetzee, 5 Andries Bekker, 4 Eben Etzebeth, 3 Jannie du Plessis, 2 Adriaan Strauss, 1 Beast Mtawarira.
Subs: 16 Tiaan Liebenberg, 17 Pat Cilliers, 18 Flip van der Merwe, 19 Keegan Daniel, 20 Ruan Pienaar, 21 Pat Lambie, 22 JJ Engelbrecht.

23 Aug 2012, 13:35 pm@Sasuke-399: The WP loose forwards this weekend are by far better than those playing for the Boks
23 Aug 2012, 13:40 pm@garth-401: As a combination yes.
Sharks have a nice mix going on there with lots of depth also.
Cant wait till Elstadt comes back for WP. He must go to no.4 lock and Armand can be flank cover or start at 7.
I would have Elstadt specialise at lock now. He will be great back up to Bekker and Eben next year.
23 Aug 2012, 13:48 pm@Sasuke-402: Yes, they need to build there lock stocks.
23 Aug 2012, 14:12 pm@Skeppie-393: Agree, would be awesome with F Steyn at 12
23 Aug 2012, 14:15 pm@Skeppie-398: Mouth watering prospect. If only Meyer would agree
23 Aug 2012, 14:28 pm@Skeppie-398:
Won't happened by the current selection policy, however, several injuries Basson's type may force things as early as Sunday
Pienaar, Lambie, Houg, FS, JdV, JPP and Ludik would be a better choice, remember; someone needs to do some tackles and high ball challanges at 15. -
23 Aug 2012, 14:34 pm@Hondo-406: I still reckon Taute over Ludik and although Pienaar would be my second choice I still reckon Fourie du Preez has a part to play in bok rugby…especially if we bring some new youngsters in
23 Aug 2012, 14:37 pm@Skeppie-407: If only we could teach taute to pull his socks up when playing. It must be one the most irritating things to see on a rugby field.
23 Aug 2012, 14:40 pm@TooMuchRugby-408: Oh hell yes! Same goes for Chadwick
23 Aug 2012, 14:58 pm@TooMuchRugby-408: @Skeppie-409: you two fuddy duddies need to watch the sport for entertainment not for how kwaai the uniform looks…who remembers that being irritated by chris latham's socks over his exploits on a rugby field…
james o'connor with his socks down is a talented player period.
23 Aug 2012, 15:00 pm@Skeppie-409: Chadwick is a complete chop, would almost blame him for the loses the sharks suffered in the S15. Missed crucial tackles that led to losing some important early games for the Sharks. Beast was like miracle when he came back.
23 Aug 2012, 15:01 pmOk, maybe I should prove read, jykes.
23 Aug 2012, 17:14 pmGents, do yourself a favour and have a look at this article and comments…especially from form All Black assistant coach, Wayne Smith http://www.therugbysite.com/blog_posts/236-south-africa-and-argentina-haunted-by-fear-by-wayne-smith
Of particular note is in the comments section where he responds after other users discussed the merits of Morne Steyn standing deep or shallow.
"…I wanted to say it is hard to attack off 9 if the backs are not coming forward across the field. You can't force defenders to make decisions if it is obvious who the ball carriers are. By bringing the whole attack line forward, you force defenders to mark up, come forward and you can generate an element of fatigue in the defence. It also avoids gang tackles on ball runners as there is more than one threat attacking the line."
Why do we persist with this game plan when a former All Black assistant coach knows exactly what we are going to do…and is telling the whole world? Why are our Bok coaches so blind to this when most of us can see it and we also have a World Cup winning coach saying similar things. Its actually unacceptable…full stop! The Argies looked good defending because they knew what we were going to do.
23 Aug 2012, 17:24 pm@Smallzm-413: you think Graham Henry didn't tell the Argies to gang-tackle one of runners and stiffle our ball?
but this is not rocket science, the argies defence was solid and resolute against the all blacks too (even though they were mostly infringing)
in the 65th minute of last year's quarter final the score was All Blacks 18 – Argies 10 (all the all blacks points coming from Piri Weepu's boot), point is, let's not under estimate the Pumas but yeah our attack is predictable.
23 Aug 2012, 17:25 pm@Transformation-414: one-off.
23 Aug 2012, 17:26 pm@Smallzm-413: be careful though, you will be shat on for posting Techno's comments
23 Aug 2012, 17:46 pm@Transformation-414: Did not mean to diss the Argies but lets face it, a little variation in attack could have gone a long way to securing that bonus point!
And you right, its not rocket science…which is a really bad statement on our current tactics from the coaches.
Its really weird the way the Boks try and attack (run over opposition) because I cannot understand why they seemingly do not enjoy outwitting defenders as a team. Whats the thrill for our professional coaches and players when they step out onto that pitch these days? The attackers standing around the 9 for the Boks are not arranged to create doubt in defenders. They are battering rams with other forwards pushing them into the contact often. What the coaches are doing with Alberts and Coetzee is gonna make them have frequent injuries and also a bit dom through habit. There has to be a better way and I think the coaches have not thought through playing the spaces next to number 9 at all aside from running in at pace and ramming.
23 Aug 2012, 17:47 pm@Transformation-416: Who's Techno?
23 Aug 2012, 18:33 pm@Smallzm-418: justin marshall calls wayne smith "techno" as his mond works like a computer gobbling up stats, reinterpreting them & forming patterns out of them.
23 Aug 2012, 18:35 pm@Transformation-419: mind…
23 Aug 2012, 20:04 pmAll time irritating socks down player Chris Latham.
23 Aug 2012, 20:05 pm@Smallzm-417:
Remember how Gregan used to pick out forwards running different lines in the opponents 25? -
23 Aug 2012, 20:09 pm@gunther-421: But what a player.
Only started playing when 18.
23 Aug 2012, 20:19 pmAgreed Willie.
The socks down thing with him irritated our boys no end.
Skinner in particular hated it!
24 Aug 2012, 07:38 am@David-422: Exactly! Either Hougaard is really terrible at finding runners or everybody is playing how they have been told to.
The dissapointing part is that running lines are not something that cannot be learnt or devised before the game. Its a timing issue of a couple of runners being able to arrive at slightly different times on the gainline ready for the pass. Creating doubt every we get good ball at 9. Whats happening now is the opposition (and I mean almost every other rugby playing nation) know exactly where our ball is going and our good ball is being negated by fierce defenders who have no fear of SA physicality any more. So good ball then becomes bad ball when our runners are picked and iced. The Stormers defence also pick runners and make opposition ball bad (gang tackling) but they came undone when the Sharks loosies started offloading in the tackle, getting more ball to players like JPP at crucial times (who can create doubt in any defender) and using the kick chase method effectively when the time was right. These variations kept the Stormers guessing and their defence could not keep up in the semi final. We need these game variations in the Bok team like yesterday.
24 Aug 2012, 07:47 am@Smallzm-425:
Ruan is much better at player selection than Hougaard, which is quite noticable when he comes on. Gregan had a number of options of forwards running different angles, something I noticed Eddie Jones appeared to bring to the Boks at the RWC, which has since disappeared. -
24 Aug 2012, 10:34 am@David-426: I agree with you on Ruan and I would also started with him on Sat.
What I don't get though is why our coaches don't get this facet of play where defenders are kept guessing. Most teams playing SA in Superrugby and tests are adopting a specific tackling style against our runners. Either they literally lie on the deck and our runner (in trying to flatten the defender) just trips over them (ie. Potgieters ridiculous kamikaze style) or they aim higher to dislodge the ball from runners with body positions too upright (also prevents the offload). After the Bulls loss against the Saders Dan Carter mentioned this as a tactic. With the opposition freely giving their tactics out to us, we still don't adapt? I thought an supposedly astute coach like Heyneke could work on these things but I have seen nothing yet which suggests he has evolved this facet of play. Seems he just wants guys to hit the gainline harder, win more collisions…well guess what…we not winning as many collisions as we used to as opposition have figured out exactly where to apply their defensive hit!

Writer Nora Ephron Passes Away
Nora Ephron, the Oscar-nominated screenwriter who brought us "When Harry Met Sally," "Sleepless in Seattle," and "You've Got Mail," has died at the age of 71.
The acclaimed writer passed away in New York, after a bout with leukemia. A statement from her publisher Alfred A. Knopf said: "It is with great sadness that we report that Nora Ephron has died… She brought an awful lot of people a tremendous amount of joy. She will be sorely missed."
Her son, Jacob Bernstein, a freelance reporter of The New York Times, said that Ms. Ephron died of pneumonia brought about by acute myeloid leukemia, in a report on the Times.
Nora Ephron was born on May 19, 1941, in New York City. Her screenwriter-parents raised her in Beverly Hills, and she worked for a while as an intern at the White House.
Nora Ephron's career began in journalism, but she eventually went into movies, a career that began while she was married to her second husband, Carl Bernstein, the investigative reporter of The Washington Post who reported on the Watergate scandal.
She is credited with more than a dozen films that usually featured strong female characters, where she either served as writer, producer or director. Her work on the movies "When Harry Met Sally," "Sleepless in Seattle," and the Meryl Streep drama "Silkwood," where Ms. Streep played an anti-nucleaer activitist, earned Ms. Ephron three Academy Award nominations.
Her last film was 2009's "Julie and Julia," where Meryl Streep played celebrity cook Julia Child.

Viet Nam ready to become Latin America's major partner
Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung and heads of delegations to the Forum on Viet Nam-Latin America Trade and Investment, Hanoi, July 5, 2012 - Photo: VGP |
The forum, scheduled from July 5-6, drew the participation of ministerial and local leaders and representatives from over 200 Latin American and Vietnamese corporations.
With the theme of "Viet Nam-Latin America: Trade and Investment Partners for Development", the forum focuses on three main themes including business investment, transport, logistics, telecommunication and service connectivity, and partnership in agriculture and energy between the two sides.
Vast opportunities
Addressing the event, PM Dung highly spoke of the first forum which is expected to churn out numerous opportunities for the two sides to uphold the traditional ties.
With abundant resources and a population of 570 million, Latin American countries are important economic partners of Vietnam, said PM Dung.
So far, Viet Nam has trade ties with over 30 markets in the Latin America. The two-way trade turnover between Viet Nam and Latin American countries has surged 17 times over the last ten years and hit over US$5 billion in 2011.
Viet Nam chiefly ships footwear, garment and textiles, electronic goods, household utensils, rubber, rice, coffee and coal to the Latin America.
In return, the Southeast Asian country mainly imports raw materials such as sawn timber, pulp, leather, fish paste, copper, steel and cotton from the Latin American region.
In addition, the Government chief believed that trans-regional cooperation framework like APEC and FEALAC would open up more cooperation chances for more exchanges between two Pacific sides.
The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) has emerged as a promising multilateral mechanism in which Viet Nam and Latin American countries like Chile, Peru and even Mexico are pursuing, he added.
Delegates to the first Forum on Viet Nam-Latin America Trade and Investment from July 5-6, 2012 - Photo: VGP |
Viet Nam hopes to boost the bilateral cooperation in such fields as petroleum, energy, production of consumption goods, aquaculture and import of raw materials from Latin America.
PM Dung called on Latin American friends to participate in and become an important part in Viet Nam's national development cause. Meanwhile, Viet Nam is ready to join the growth process in Latin America.
The Vietnamese Government chief urged representatives of ministries, agencies, localities and businesses to discuss ways to formulate specific cooperative ideas, mechanisms and policies between the two sides.
On behalf of the Latin American delegations, a Colombian Deputy Minister of Foreign Trade said that this is a good time for Latin American countries and Viet Nam to set up a legal foundation. The forum would help foster mutual understanding and linkages between the two sides.

Hey Life! You're a crazy son of a bastard, aint you?!
You like playing with love, dont ya?

Metal has no laws. Metal is the law.
so I am back, had a quite interesting day(te), and can finally tell: YES! this IS the girl I want - and NOBODY ELSE! :)
i mean, we talked the whole day, walking through the inner city of Munich, finding out more and more about each other, while finding out, too, how equally we are, and how we are not.
i only can tell: I havent met anyone yet, that had this combination of some brains, philosophics, liking sex, and all. ah, i know, this sounds like cliché, but IT IS that way...
... the first girl i ever dreamed off during me sleeping.

Gotcha! :-P
Well, congratulations and all the best wishes for the two of you! And you're gonna get a wet-warm handshake from me personally on Friday.
The transport question may have been solved as well, as none of us has been able to find a flight for Martin. The only realistic option was an € 59.- offer Berlin->Zürich, valid from February 01. Bah!
As a compensation we've decided that the next NAO meeting shall take place at Berlin, where we could all sleep at his place, use his TV and drink his beer. :-P

And this is an invitation! (besides the beer, cause there is none! :) )
After decades of construction my website is finally up an running: www.kkds.de
it seems as some mentally handicapped characters abusing NAO dont think so ;D
... i do, of course. i still can NOT understand people who arent able to speak openly about that topic. *shakes his head*
coming back to the point: there are enough ppl walking on earth who are very prude, or at least somewhat shy, so if it comes to sex, they seem to get into trouble. interesting point: many of those 'oh-i'm-sooo-fetish' folks in the so-called goth scene are IRL quite conservative when it comes to sex :)
another thing is: talking about sex is one thing, posing around with like how much lovers you had, how often you made her/him orgasms and other arrogant shit like that is another. last one i dont like, thats a niveau one hasnt to sink to. but that's also what those conservative craving people I shortly talked about think of "talking about sex".
sick world. :)

ReallyCoolDude *** (7) throws in his two cents...
I don't know what is the big deal about it. I think it was not the subject that caused those mediocre ratings, but the contents. There was nothing that was so nice or excellent about the posts, so why get surprised when someone gives a mediocre ratings to it? I have seen posts on NAO on sex which have got beautiful ratings. It is how you put your point that matters and not what you talk about, at least that's what I believe. So, I am sure if you share something about the same subject but by opening up a door for further conversation, or something nice and interesting that will make people think, smile or laugh, it is going to be received positively.
Just my 2 cents.
Love is blind, but marriage is a real eye opener.

Nearly 700 residents attended and more than 200 volunteers rolled up their sleeves and planted trees, cleaned up the park and participated in environmental and earth-friendly activities. The event was developed by Discovery Bay General Manager Rick Howard based on a similar event he developed in Mission Viejo.
"This was a great event that showed the community how to be energy efficient, conserve natural resources and do it in a fun way," said Howard. "We can't wait until next year's festival."
Participants also enjoyed entertainment, food from local restaurants, informational displays and a family photo booth. Kite flying was available for the young – and young at heart – and also featured bounce houses, games, crafts and flowerpot planting.
Also present were local eco-friendly vendors such as the local garbage and recycling company County Vector Control; Contra Costa Storm Water; Pacific Coast Farmers' Market; a hybrid car display; Veolia Water; and local landscaping companies.
Earth Day was founded in 1970 and reflected the nation's growing concern for the environment. U.S. Sen. Gaylord Nelson rallied the public, media and Congress to create a day each year to put the environment at center stage.
The first Earth Day led to the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency and the passage of the Clean Air, Clean Water and Endangered Species acts. Now, 41 years later, Earth Day is celebrated every year on April 22 by millions around the world.

Canned Funk
CD (Item 545100) CTI/Wounded Bird, 1975 — Condition: New Copy
Nothing canned here – as the sound, style, and groove of the record is as fresh and freaky as the classic image on the cover! The riffing rhythms get going right from the start – some amazing lines from a rhythm combo that includes Joe Beck on guitar, Herb Bushler on bass, Jim Madison on drums, and the mighty Ray Mantilla on percussion – adding in these extra changes and fills that really get the tunes moving wonderfully – providing a perfect platform for Joe Farrell's wonderful work on tenor, soprano, baritone, and flute! The sax lines are as angular as the rhythms – tight, choppy, and completely funky – no wonder the record's a CTI classic that folks have dug for years! Tracks are all nice and long – and titles include "Canned Funk", "Animal", and "Spoken Silence". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

In an old hangar at the Santa Monica Airport, Louise Anne Marler, a graphic designer who specializes in pop art-style imagery of vintage manual typewriters, is showing off her next subject - a Bing No. 2 compact portable.
This relic of 1920s German ingenuity was a gift from her father.
"He has a cellar and a barn full of these things," says Marler, recalling how her dad's collection would spill over into different rooms of the house and become part of the d cor as she was growing up. But that was before the word processor and personal computer brought an end to the typewriter.
In fact, of all the machines destined for the history books the manual typewriter should probably top the list. But like vinyl records
Call it a push back against technology.
"The typewriter does one thing and it does it well: It types," says filmmaker Gary Nicholson, who documents the trend in "The Typewriter (in the 21st Century)." It opens in select theaters and film festivals starting in September, including a screening at 4 p.m. Sept. 1 at Beyond Baroque Literary/Arts Center, 681 Venice Blvd., Venice - beyondbaroque.org.
The film, directed by Christopher Lockett, explores the trend from the viewpoint of typewriter repairmen, high-end collectors, teachers, journalists and students.
"A lot of people think it's just the hipsters using typewriters but what I found is it's a lot of tech people," Nicholson says. "We feature one programmer who talks about how the power went off one day while he was in the middle of writing code, trying to figure out a function, so he just started typing up code on his typewriter."
The film also showcases bloggers who type their posts the old-fashioned way, scan the page into the computer and upload it to their blog, authors who
"There's this level of thought that writers are returning to the manual typewriter because they can focus on the flow of their story without the distractions of the computer," says Marler, who is featured in "The Typewriter" movie and behind a type-in at Beyond Baroque on Sept. 23, starting at 1 p.m.
As part of the event, she'll showcase her TypoWriters and AlphaBits series of fine art prints, starting at $45, that she creates and sells online from her L.A. Marler design studio - lamarler.com or 310-449-4477 - in Santa Monica, where she can be found on any
given day.Her ever-growing TypoWriters collection features graphically altered images of such typewriter brands as Corona, Royal Bar-Lock and Underwood.
They come from her parents' rural Midwest house.
When she visits, Marler entertains herself with her digital camera, photographing the working-class typewriters that her father - a second-generation office equipment salesman who's now retired - continues to amass.
She Photoshops each image, eliminates the background and plays with the color. She comes up with brief captions like "Here's my story," "Ghost Writer" and "Love Letters" to accompany each piece.
In her AlphaBits series, she zeroes in on the keys as pop fonts that can be arranged to spell
words.Marler caters to writers but she's seeing her audience grow as new generations discover the typewriter.
"A girl came in with her mom and wanted `You are my type' as her graduation gift," she says. "I said, `Are you a writer?' She said, `No!' She just liked it. Because the kids don't know what these are they're really fascinated by them."
Antique and secondhand stores, eBay and online retailers are also feeding the demand with actual typewriters - especially pre-1960s Ernest Hemingway styles and sleek, ultraportable models that sell from $25 to $200, depending on their condition.
"I had a couple buy one last weekend for a 50th anniversary party so people could write messages on a typewriter," says Rick Johnson, who co-owns the Sherman Oaks Antique Mall - soantiquemall.com - where interest in vintage manual typewriters is gaining momentum, especially among the young.
And so the store, which also supplies Hollywood set decorators with props, makes it a rule to keep these machines in stock to meet the demand.
"A trend is happening but it's not why I'm doing this," says Marler, who chuckles at the response her art used to get from friends just five years ago.
"Really, Marler: Typewriters?"

A knack for fixing things comes in handy
Dan Yee, owner of Handy Works said fixing things and assembling things has always been very natural to him. | Jackie Pilossoph~For Sun-Times Media
Dan's tips for home improvement:
1. Always check showers for caulking issues because water damage is expensive to fix
2. Check your sump pump once a year to make sure it's functioning properly
3. Change smoke alarm batteries throughout the home once a year and replace the actual alarm every 5-8 years
4. Dryer vents need to be cleaned out once a year
(847) 677-0559
Updated: February 4, 2013 6:13AM
SKOKIE — Fixing and assembling things has always come very natural to Dan Yee.
The 38-year-old said he took one computer class, and afterward went out and bought all the parts and built his own computer.
"I've always had a knack for figuring out how things work and then fixing them or putting them together," said Yee, whose Skokie based company, HandyWorks, does repairs, maintenance, upgrades, and home improvements in homes all over the North Shore.
Yee, who worked for a few different contractors for 15 years before starting HandyWorks in 2004 takes on jobs that include plumbing, electrical issues, carpentry, repairs, installations, tiling, crown molding installation, cabinetry, pressure washing, sump pump repair and appliance assembly.
"I take the smaller jobs that a lot of contractors turn down because they feel like there isn't enough profit margin in it, but it's really the small jobs that are profitable, and I enjoy them," said Yee, who lives in Skokie with his wife and three children.
Nancy Katz is a professional organizer in Evanston, and has hired Yee for client jobs for 10 years.
"When I'm preparing a home for sale, he comes in and does all the repairs," said Katz. "He's reliable, knowledgeable and honest. He'll tell you, 'I can fix it,' or 'I can't fix it,' or 'It's not worth fixing.' "
Before every job, Yee always explains to his customer what's wrong and how he is going to fix it. Often times, if the job is easy, Yee gives the customer the option of showing them how to fix it themselves, but said they almost always decline.
"Most of my customers are people who don't have the time, they're working professionals and they're not confident to do it themselves and they're not experienced," said Yee. "They don't even attempt the simplest things because they're just too busy and they don't want to."
In addition to his services, Yee also has a specialty in installing high end locks.
"Contractors and builders call me a lot for these jobs because it's difficult and takes a lot of precision," said Yee, "The cliché is 'Measure twice and cut once.' I say, 'Measure four times.' "
"Dan is really the only guy we give out as a referral to our customers," said Mike Kozil, owner of Decorator Hardware & Bath in Lincolnwood. "We give them his card and they call him and he does great work. People go out of their way to call us and thank us for giving them his name."
Yee is also known for wearing white shoe covers in every home he services, a courtesy he said people are constantly thanking him for.
"I'm surprised by how many customers tell me that other service people don't wear them," he said.
"The fact that he wears shoe covers shows a lot of respect," said Katz.
"He's considerate and people are thrilled by that," Kozil said.
HandyWorks charges $65 per hour, but for some jobs, such as high end lock installations, fixture installations and door installations Yee quotes a flat fee.
"It's hard to find someone who is fair and does good work and cleans up after himself," said Kozil. "Dan is all of those things."
"This is not a boring job," said Yee. "One day I'm doing something like electrical work or carpentry, and the next day I'm installing crown molding, and I finish it and it's just beautiful."

PINEVILLE —The challenges for the Pineville Mountain Lions are obvious. They're one of the smallest school in the state to field a football team each year and they're locked in a district with defending state champion Hazard.
"We're always going to be a place where numbers hurt us. We're probably the only school in the nation that can get one out of three boys to come out and play football, but still only have 27 on the roster," Lion coach Bart Elam said with a laugh Tuesday. "But we take pride in that, we like that at Pineville. The kids know they've got to play everything and be tough and fight through things that other teams don't."
Coming off a 4-7 season, there is plenty of reason for optimism with most of the starting skill players back as seniors. In that aspect the team is similar to the 2010 squad that went 8-4 and won the school's first playoff game in 30 years. Running back Andrew Douglas rushed for over 1700 yards and scored 14 touchdowns as a junior in 2011. Jamie Roan is back for his second year at quarterback, Byron Asher is healthy going in to the season and returns as Pineville's leading receiver. The Mountain Lions also got a boost over the summer when Tanner Mike transferred from Middlesboro to give the team another play-making threat at either receiver or running back.
"We do have experienced skill players. We've got our quarterback back, Byron is playing his natural position at receiver. We've got Connor Ford who was a great player for us last year back and Dougie was almost a 2,000-yard rusher," Elam said. "The addition of Tanner Mike helps a lot, obviously. We've got a lot of things to be thankful for."
The coach added that the team is anxious to scrimmage against Middlesboro Friday as part of the SEKC Grid-O-Rama at Bell County.
"We've been practicing hard and things are going smooth, but this point you really don't know what you need to work on or where you need to improve because we haven't had any scrimmages," said Elam. "We're looking forward to Friday night — I know we won't get a whole lot of work in, but just to get in a few series and see what we've got and what we don't."
He said there haven't been a lot of surprises during preseason workouts since most of the skill players bring plenty of experience.
"We pretty much knew what we had going in to this year. We've had a real good freshman class come up and get competitive so we've got some kids there who can give us minutes," he said. "We're happy about where we are."
Pineville kicks off the regular season on Aug. 17 with the Laurel Bowl at home against 5A North Laurel.

DJ Spinna takes on P&P Records – and the results are sublime! Spinna's one of the most soulful talents to ever hit the decks – an artist we can always rely on for his crucial ear for older sounds – a really unique sense of taste that always has Spinna picking some of the best cuts from rare records – and finding a way to put them together that turns us on all over again to great music! Given that P&P is a treasure trove of rare grooves, Spinna's got plenty to work with here – and manages to dig into the label with effortless ease – coming up with a wicked blend of funky soul, soulful funk, underground club, and even a bit of hip hop too! This CD version features a full mix of 24 tracks – 80 minutes of music that's tweaked and touched-up here and there with some work on the decks. Titles include "Take Me I'm Yours" by Mary Clark, "I'm Gonna Fool You" by Ella Hamilton, "Game Of Life" by Lavaba & E Mallison, "Big Foot Boogie" by Brisko The Kidd, "Did You Notice" by Louise Murray, "Dust To Dust" by Cloud One, "Determination" by Eddie Owen, "New York's Movin" by Ahzz, "Feel The Spirit" by Foster Jackson Group, "Got You Dancing" by Karisma, and lots lots more! © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

Hallucinating Reality
My Very Own Paranoid Delusions and 'Imaginary' Conversations
Observing, Assessing and Evaluating Crazy Me: One of Those "Cries for 'Help'"
Even More 'Fun'
I thought it might be even more 'fun' for the locals to get right into my personal space in a way that would not be possible for them to do just by pushing and shoving their way in, and then passing all they can get along as interpretive gossip. (not that any of them DO that of course!) So, bearing in mind that I have been told by experts that none of my personal experience of reality, as I perceive it, is 'real,' I thought that I would share my erroneous perceptions and reactions ('affects', which are not feelings like you have) right here on this page, with all of you. This way, you who are not 'sick' can enjoy observing and assessing someone who is told she is sick, but who will not accept it.
Now remember I am going to write this "AS IF" this were reality so that those of you who know you are not brain disordered as I am, can really see what it is like to be at the mercy of one's poor sick brain and yet believe that people actually DO behave this way and that it is in fact very common. To complete my disclaimer here then:
On this page, Any resemblance to any actual persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental or another sign of my inherently defective personality. Therefore, please do not worry that anyone else is ever going to be held in any way accountable for any of it.
My Paranoid Stories of life in my city will appear here below so do get involved in this educational experience...Don't worry, (not that you would) as no real names will be used here since none of these people are really guilty of anything anyway...so how could they be?
Let's Try and Oldie but a Goodie
This one too was originally stated to the psychiatric hospital staff having them some 'fun' while observing and listening to my reactions to them. I can easily expand it though to include all of the locals everywhere who have involved themselves in what they believe is a 'covert' operation;
"That which you are observing is observing you."
If you did not need to justify yourselves by needing me to be 'less than,' you would already know that. It is perfectly obvious.

The USDE will honor approximately 219 public and 50 private schools at a recognition ceremony on Nov. 12-13 in Washington, D.C. In its 30-year history, the National Blue Ribbon Schools Program has bestowed this coveted award on nearly 7,000 of America's schools.
The Alabama schools honored, included:
Daphne High School, Baldwin County
Forest Hills School, Florence City
Liberty Middle School, Madison City
Piedmont High School, Piedmont City
Spencer Elementary School, Mobile County
The National Blue Ribbon Schools award honors public and private elementary, middle, and high schools where students perform at very high levels or where significant improvements are being made in students' levels of achievement.
The program recognizes schools in one of two performance categories. The first category is "Exemplary High Performing," in which schools are recognized among their state's highest performing schools, as measured by state assessments or nationally-normed tests. The second category is "Exemplary Improving," in which schools that have at least 40 percent of their students from disadvantaged backgrounds demonstrate the most progress in improving student achievement levels as measured by state assessments or nationally-normed tests.
A list of the 2012 National Blue Ribbon Schools is available at http://www.ed.gov/nationalblueribbonschools. Nominated schools from some states will be included at a later date following final certification by the state's chief state school officer.

Rochester, N.Y. --- Folks on Hamilton Street tell 13WHAM News that they're fed up with the deteriorating condition of one property and they can't understand why it's been allowed to get so bad over so many years.
This week a Rochester City Hall Spokesman informed 13WHAM News that the city is taking serious action and that a demolition order has been secured. After levying more than $20,000 in code violation fines the city is prepared to move forward with the demolition process if the owner does not come into compliance soon.
The property stands in stark contrast to many others on Hamilton Street in the South Wedge, a neighborhood that's experienced a significant turnaround over the last decade.
"Oh yeah, a lot of really good things have been sprouting up, up and down South Avenue businesses and people are trying to take care of their houses and make things a little nicer," Jim Fricon a Hamilton Street resident said.
But the ire of neighbors is focused on 293 Hamilton Street. Richard Knowlton bought the property in 1993 and most neighbors say they've seen no noticeable upgrades to the property over the last two decades.
"It just gets worse and worse and this is what our tenants, this is their view out their living room window this is what they get to look at," Kevin Henry who owns and maintains the property next door to 293 said. "I feel bad for our neighbors who live here and they're fixing up their properties and this is their view and it's pretty unsightly."
Complaints about a property's appearance are one thing but with broken windows and a crumbling exterior, neighbor's feel they have a genuine public safety concerns.
"The obvious is that things fall off the house and hurt people," Kitty Henry said. "Somebody might break in, people who you don't want in your neighborhood (sic) be there in the house and you certainly don't want them near your tenants or yourself."
"The chimney's crumbling, the windows," Fricon added. "We got open windows now, there are like squirrels crawling in it."
The city spokesman said asbestos abatement has been put out to bid on the property and that process should be completed within the next sixty days. After that the city could move forward with the demolition process. Some neighbors feel that needs to happen.
"I would just like some sort of resolution," Fricon said. "Either you fix it up or you knock it down one or the two but do something with it."
The Property Owner Responds
To the credit of Richard Knowlton, he wasted no time fielding 13WHAM News' phone call and meeting our news crew at his property to explain his side of this story. Also to his credit, of the more than $20,000 in code violation fines he's been assessed a city spokesman said he's paid all of them but the most recent one issued on May 31st.

A Carroll High School graduate will be competing at the Miss America Pageant as Miss Oregon.
Fort Wayne native Rachel Berry was crowned Miss Oregon on Saturday night, the official preliminary to the Jan. 12 Miss America competition in Las Vegas. The 2006 Carroll graduate is the daughter of Jim and Beth Berry.
Berry competed as Miss Willamette Valley and showcased her tap dancing talent.
"It's been a huge assistance to finishing my degree and now hopefully going on to get my master's," she was quoted in The Daily Astorian. "But also," she added, "I want to be Miss America!"
While living in Fort Wayne, she danced at her mother's dance studio, Steppin' Out Studio of Dance, and danced for Carroll's Electric Blue Dance Team.
In high school, she also served as captain of the track and cross country teams, spent 3 years as class president, and graduated 11th in her class of 400, her mother wrote. Her love for competing in pageants began when she was crowned Miss Allen County in 2006, Betty Berry wrote.
After graduation, Rachel Berry attended Chapman University in Orange, Calif., where she was a member of the women's NCAA cross country team and cheer squad, in addition to serving on the Chancellor's Student Advisory Board as one of seven student leaders.
She hopes to earn a master's degree in psychology, work as a national news correspondent, and eventually become the first female to host "The Tonight Show."
To get help in learning the trade, she interned for Fox News, "Access Hollywood," CBS, The Tennis Channel, and "Ellen Degeneres." She was awarded the Outstanding Broadcast Journalist Award, and as a finalist in a nationwide MTVu competition spent a week covering the 2010 Oscar events and interviewing celebrities including George Clooney, Meryl Streep and Sandra Bullock on the red carpet.
She is writing an inspirational, faith-based book entitled "Persevering Dreams."
For now, Berry will be working to succeed Miss America 2012 Laura Kaeppeler of Kenosha, Wis., and promote Girls Inc., a nonprofit that encourages girls to take risks and master physical, intellectual and emotional challenges, according to its website, as her platform. Indiana will be represented at the pageant by Miss Duneland MerrieBeth Cox, whose platform will be "overcoming challenges" and will showcase her talent of baton twirling.

Councils' plans will hit charity shops hard, Scope warns
16 April 2012
Scope has called on councils to re-think plans to take away textile bank sites, because of the impact it would have on charity shops, the shoppers that visit them and above all the vital work that is funded by donated clothes.
Charity Retail Association (CRA) has launched a campaign to make councils think twice, which has now got the backing of the Sunday Mirror.
Richard Hawkes, in a comment piece for Sunday paper, wrote: "This will hurt us and the people we help… shops that rely on those donations," and "shoppers on the high street".
There are hundreds of clothes banks across London, where people donate their clothes to charity.
A group of councils in London are looking into scheme that will hand over sites currently being used by charities to private companies.
The plan under discussion would see companies collect the public's donated clothes and sell them for a profit and give a cut or a fee to the councils. The plan is being discussed by London Councils, an umbrella group representing London's local authorities.
The move follows Northumberland and Hertfordshire County Councils selling their sites to private companies in 2011. Hertfordshire is now promoting the scheme to other councils.
In London alone, Scope's 163 banks represent more than £1.5 million worth of support for the charity's work with disabled people.
According to the CRA, there are over 400 textile banks operated by charities on local authority sites in the capital. Charities collect over 2,000 tonnes every year from these banks, feeding over 160 shops in London.
The CRA estimates that over 400 jobs and nearly 6,000 volunteering roles could also be lost if these proposals go ahead. The CRA is calling on councils to think twice before they consider selling off the sites.
Commenting further on the issue Richard Hawkes, chief executive of disability charity Scope, said:
"When you drop clothes in a textile bank charities like Scope empty them and take them to our shops. We sort them and, hopefully find items that the many bargain hunters that visit our shops will like. If we don't sell an item in one shop, we pass it on to another. If all else fails we sell it to a recycler. All the money we make goes to support disabled people.
"At least that was the case. Councils are starting to evict charities from clothes banks sites and flog them off to private companies, who in turn sell on your clothes for a profit, and give a cut to the council.
"Make no mistake; this scheme will hurt charity shops that rely on the donations, the number of people charities like ours can work with, and shoppers on the high street.
"Bromley and other councils in London appear set to join Hertfordshire and Northumberland in adopting this scheme.
"With the Charity Retail Association, we are calling on them to not to go down that path.
"We understand that all councils have to make tough spending decisions, but the real value of donated clothes to charity and society is when they are re-sold in shops."
"When you donate clothes do you want them to line wealthy businessmen's pockets?"
