Dancing With the Stars - Season 13
Posted 18 October 2011 - 02:30 PM
I wish that Tristan MacManus had been paired with Chelsea Kane last year.

I was at the movies last night watching the Rolling Stones Some Girls concert feature so I missed the results show. In any event, Carson and Anna were eliminated.
He was certainly entertaining but he was also a terrible dancer. After five weeks, he wasn't making any improvement at all. So, it was his time to go.
Here's who's left: David Arquette, Chaz Bono, Nancy Grace, Rob Kardashian, Rikki Lake, JR Martinez and Hope Solo
I suspect JR and Rikki (thanks to Derek) are locks for the Final 3. Sadly, I can actually envision Chaz, Nancy or Rob slotting into the "Marie Osmond" position in the Final 3.
Posted 20 October 2011 - 12:32 PM
I think JR is going to win. The combination of personality, sob story/real American hero-ness, and good-enough dance abilities should do it, I think. Karina is actually a good teacher for students with some ability. She's not great with hopeless cases like Kym or Cheryl, but if there's a nugget of talent there, she can usually do something very good with it, and it's showing with JR. The one thing I can see derailing this train is if JR's body can't deal with the physical demands of the show over the next couple of months, but he's seemed okay so far.
I can't blame Derek on this one. None of these celebs can handle continuous foxtrot. Foxtrot is the hardest dance out of the 10 standard ballroom and latin dances. Most of the foxtrots on DWTS have two or three 8s of foxtrot interspersed in a minute and half of mindless filler. There actually was some content in this foxtrot, despite the terrible music choice.
Total aside, but Cheryl looks really out-of-shape and her technique is starting to look really ragged again. She really needs to take the off-season to get back into training herself. Her Latin looks almost as bad as Kym's, and Kym was never a Latin specialist.
I feel for Tristan just because Nancy seems like she has no sense of movement, no athletic ability, and seems like she would be no fun to teach (as opposed to Carson who at least seems like he would be fun to work with and would give it a sincere effort). But somehow Tristan seems to pull out at least basic beginner routines, and that seems like a real accomplishment.
I'm not a huge fan of Buddy's teaching style. One of my former coaches used to call Buddy's students "Schwimmerites" because it was so obvious from performance style who had studied with him. (Seriously, they all had the same performance tricks and tics to go with the impeccable technique). But I can see how Buddy's emphasis on performance really helped Chaz by giving him something to fall back on during the show.
I think lack of practice time is part of it, but this just seems to be a bad teacher-student pairing. I think that Hope really needs someone who can build her a technical foundation first, and then build the performance on top of it. Maks is not helping her by telling her to be "sexy." "Sexy" as a concept clearly confuses her, and saying it over and over again is just frustrating her. She needs someone to teach her the technique of "sexy" first, e.g. holding back the hip, straightening the legs, dragging the shoe, etc., and then let the sexy come from the confidence that builds. She needs someone like a Jonathan Roberts, or (if he weren't too short for her), Louis van Amstel.
What's interesting with Hope is she actually does much better with some of the solid technical requirements than with the frou-frou filler choreography that Maks gives her. Hope blew me away with some of the foxtrot walks she did last week. Blew me away! They were as good as I've seen from a celeb on several seasons of the show. The ability is there, but Maks is not the right person to pull it out from her.
Anna usually frustrates me with her inability to teach celebs, and yet she and Carson have been so much fun this year. I will miss this daffy pairing.
Kym's Latin technique made my eyes bleed on the results show. It was only somewhat saved by Louis and Karina's appearance which looked pretty thrown-together. But slapdash Louis and Karina is still always worth watching.

I know they're going for Good TV (whatever that means), but I find it horrible when the judges are going after the pros in a back-handed way: the celebs are trusting these people, and here the judges are telling them that the pros are incompetent. (Only a few talk back, like Ballas and Kane last season.) The celebs might get some input into what they feel comfortable with or suggesting what they might try, but their main choices are 1. try to do what the pro asks them to do or 2. not try to do what the pro asks them to do.
For example: when Hope Solo said she wasn't going to waste time on rhumba walks because they were a small percentage of the routine, she was doomed: it was like saying, I'm not going to waste any time on tendu
sidwich, on 20 October 2011 - 12:32 PM, said:
I get the impression that Solo would have been fine with a more "Hoosiers"-like drill approach: these are the pieces, and this is how they all go together. (If they're going to bring in Buddy Schwimmer, maybe they can coax Gene Hackman out of retirement.)
She looks devastated trying to get the "sexy" and missing it. Or at least one definition of "sexy". Of course she would respond to the three members of the troupe, but as soon as she was back with him, and he was on her case, she would revert. Hasn't he done this for a bazillion seasons? Has he learned nothing about fear in his time? I have no doubt that he cares, but I'm wondering how smart he is. He so reminds me of a Jewish mother, wanting the best for her kids, but making their heads explode.
Of course, all of these opinions are based on edited slices, and maybe the pros do bring in other people to help. I would have loved to see her with van Amstel, and he's been around to perform and choreograph. (Even with their heights, maybe they could have been a Suzanne Farrell and Ib Andersen pairing.)
sidwich, on 20 October 2011 - 12:32 PM, said:
The costume people must hate her, because they could hardly have made her look worse, and unless she had an injury of some kind or couldn't practice in heels, those boots could not have sabotaged her more, except maybe the very bad poncho.
Posted 25 October 2011 - 04:19 PM
The hardest part for her was wearing a dress. It took four weeks, and the show made a big deal about it, but she did it, and she looked great in it.
Could this have translated to ballroom? With van Amstel? If not, is there a pro this season that might have been better for Solo?

Yes and no. There's some leeway based on technique, particularly on the Latin side (and of course, as Pelletier says, lifts and aerials are all about the technique and physics involved). Sometimes you will see very successful Latin couples with a very tall man and a very short woman like the Cutlers of England who were World Amateur champions several years ago. You lose something on the visual lines, but on the other side, if the technique is good, you can get some very interesting effects that you can't without the size difference.
But it's much harder to overcome a significant height difference on the Ballroom side of things because of leg swing and alignment issues. At some point no matter how good the technique is, you can't compensate for lack of length in the legs, and the difference in the leg swings will become apparent. (Ballroom is like crew... at some point, tall always wins.) Even if you can compensate for the leg swings, it's very hard to get good alignment if you have a significant difference in height. For good positioning, the pelvises need to be aligned with the lady straddling the man's thigh and maintaining contact all through the sternum (roughly). Obviously, this is very difficult if you have a major difference in height. Not impossible, but very difficult, especially for a beginner like Hope.
I'm 5'2 (almost exactly the same height at Cheryl who claims 5'4, but that's another story...) which translates into 5'5 or so when I'm wearing my shoes, and generally, a comfortable partner for me is someone in the 5'7 to 5'10 range (Louis, Mark). Men who are 5'10 to 6'1 (Tristan, Derek) can still work, but it will take some compensation on both sides. Anything taller is challenging to get quality ballroom partnering to work.
And Hope is very tall. I actually ran into her getting coffee a few days ago, and felt like a positive midget next to her. I think she's actually taller than Louis (who I used to see on the practice floor regularly when I still lived in NY), and would probably tower over him in shoes. (Hope is absolutely stunning in person, by the way. A gorgeous young lady).
Which is a shame because I think Louis would actually be good for her. He's very used to coaching top athletes, and I think his mind-and-body Yoda approach would be very positive for her.
More realistic height-wise although neither are on the show this year, Jonathan Roberts and Nick Kosovich probably would have done well with Hope. Both are very experienced coaches who I think would have given her a good combination of drill-sergeant/supportive therapist that I think she needs.
Posted 26 October 2011 - 12:06 AM
I've always thought Hope Solo was beautiful, and it's great to know how much so she is in person.
I fell in love with Nick Kosovich when he performed a standard dance with a pro -- maybe his wife -- either a season he was on or maybe the season following his last appearance, and he pointed the toe of the foot of his outstretched leg. That was it: I became an instant uber.
Posted 26 October 2011 - 04:06 AM
Last Two Under the Red Lights of Doom: Chaz/Lacey and Hope/Maks
Eliminated: Chaz/Lacey
Chaz proved his point by doing the show so, from that standpoint, the experience was a success for him. In terms of dancing, though, he was hopeless from Week 1. Also, he has none of his famous parents' charisma and looked like he was miserable from the get-go. So, it was his time to go.
We have six stars left: David, Nancy, Rob, Ricki, JR and Hope
I continue to believe that Ricki and JR are locks for the Final 3 but have no clue who will take the final spot.
Posted 26 October 2011 - 08:49 PM
I think Tristan and Derek are both in the 5'10 or 5'11 range (mind you, both were still in the UK when I was dancing a lot, so they're two pros that I haven't seen in person), which is still probably shorter than ideal for Hope, but probably still doable height-wise, although Tristan might have a slighter frame than ideal also.
Unfortunately,from a height and build perspective, Maks probably really is the best physical match for Hope. Tony might have worked as well. I'm not a fan of Tony's teaching or choreography, but I think Hope might have at least had a fun experience with him.
Posted 03 November 2011 - 04:35 PM
Results - Week 7:
Bottom Two: David/Kym and Nancy/Tristan
Eliminated: David/Kym
No way should David have left over Nancy but that's the way things are going this season. David didn't make it to the Final 3 but I do think the competition was a success for him in that he rehabilitated his image after his recent tabloid travails. So, his was a personal success story (if not a dance success story.)
In other news, the performance show fell to the lowest rating ever (for a performance show) in the 18-49 demo -- a 2.8! (Weirdly, the results show, which is usually lower-rated, got the same rating.) I'm sure ABC can't wait to be done with this disastrous season.
Posted 03 November 2011 - 07:08 PM
Odd that the ratings for the results show were so low in the 18-49 demo, considering that Justin Bieber was the performer. I (who am still a part of that demo, at least for another 10 years), decided to watch a Frontline documentary on Meth, since I do not have Bieber Fever.
Of the remaining "stars", I am most entertained by Rob / Cheryl's dancing and rooting for them to make the finals.

The Not Necessarily Bottom Two Bottom Two: Nancy/Tristan and Hope/Maks
Eliminated: Nancy/Tristan
Nancy was past her sell-by date so this was a fair elimination. She certainly lasted a lot longer than I thought she would given her modest ability and her polarizing public persona.
I do hope Tristan is back next season as he is one of the best new pros to come along in quite some time. (And the DanceCenter skit with him was hilarious.)
I enjoyed seeing Kenny Mayne and Jerry Rice again last night. I thought DanceCenter was unusually pointed with its humor.
Ratings for the performance show crossed the 3.0 mark this week which must have come as a relief to ABC.
The Final Four now consists of Rob, Ricki, JR and Hope which, to my mind, is one of the weakest Final Fours ever. I would be shocked if JR doesn't win but . . . you never know.

Salaam! is it true that all new born babies are muslim from the time of previous prophets untill the time of Prophet Mohammad S.W.S. |
Salam, Rasulallah said that every new born child is born on Fitra, then he is affected by his parents' religion... There are some scholars who said that new born children are definitly muslims as they said being muslim is the meaning of Fitra. On the other hand, most scholars said that Fitra means born with a pure heart that is ready to accept the truth and right beliefs. They said that every child would be a muslim unless there isn't bad influence while growing.... Also, some scholars said that nonmuslim dead baby, his destiny is known by what would he do if he didn't die (Allah knows his destiny).. And some scholars said that nonmuslim dead baby is in the hell according to their parents.. And some scholars(the true opinion) said that muslims and nonmuslims dead babies are in the heaven. Allah knows best |
Wa Alaikum.. Bro,Prophet Muhammad {P.b.u.h} Said: Every baby is Born as a Muslim,it is his/her Parents who makes them jew,christian,etc.. Hope the Answer of The Question. |
Babies are atheists- they are without beliefs, it is their parents/guardians and the environment to into which they are born that dictate what bronze-age fairy tales they will adopt. |
If babies are born muslim, then the spirit is Christians. And when the spirit is Christianity then the body is the same, so you can not go around saying these stupid things... Or then Christians have to say the spirit and the babies is christians to say against... This is just stupid, the spirit is Christian and that makes the body the same... |
@ Only Here is the answer for your question. First of all, Muslim means "a person who submits to the will of God" .And all the babies when born, they have not committed any sin and GOD doesn't create any one as a non-believer, GOD doesn't create any one a sinner. Following is the detail why every new born is born as a Muslim. The Prophet Muhammad said, "No babe is born but upon Fitra (as a Muslim). It is his parents who make him a Jew or a Christian or a Polytheist." (Sahih Muslim, Book 033, Number 6426) Islam is the religion of all Prophets, Adam to Muhammad. Children are not born out of any sin, original, inherited or derived. They are born on the religion of their nature, i.e., Islam. The question which arises here is, "How can all people be expected to believe in Allah given their varying- backgrounds, societies and cultures? For people to be responsible for worshipping Allah they all have to have access to knowledge of Allah. The final revelation teaches that all mankind have the recognition of Allah imprinted on their souls, a part of their very nature with which they are created. In Soorah Al-A'raaf, Verses 172-173; Allah explained that when He created Adam, He caused all of Adam's descendants to come into existence and took a pledge from them saying, Am I not your Lord? To which they all replied, " Yes, we testify to It:' Allah then explained why He had all of mankind bear witness that He is their creator and only true God worthy of worship. He said, "That was In case you (mankind) should say on the day of Resurrection, "Verily we were unaware of all this." That is to say, we had no idea that You Allah, were our God. No one told us that we were only supposed to worship You alone. Allah went on to explain That it was also In case you should say, "Certainly It was our ancestors who made partners (With Allah) and we are only their descendants; will You then destroy us for what those liars did?" Thus, every child is born with a natural belief in Allah and an inborn inclination to worship Him alone called in Arabic the "Fitrah". If the child were left alone, he would worship Allah in his own way, but all children are affected by those things around them, seen or unseen. The Prophet (PBUH) reported that Allah said, "I created my servants in the right religion but devils made them go astray". The Prophet (PBUH) also said, "Each child is born in a state of "Fitrah", then his parents make him a Jew, Christian or a Zoroastrian, the way an animal gives birth to a normal offspring. Have you noticed any that were born mutilated?" (Collected by Al-Bukhaaree and Muslim). So, just as the child submits to the physical laws which Allah has put in nature, his soul also submits naturally to the fact that Allah is his Lord and Creator. But, his parents try to make him follow their own way and the child is not strong enough in the early stages of his life to resist or oppose the will of his parents. The religion which the child follows at this stage is one of custom and upbringing and Allah does not hold him to account or punish him for this religion. (By Abu Ameena Bilal Phillips ) |

Antique maps > world and polar regions > Antique map of World from Mer des Hystoires
[Holy Land] - Mer des Hystoires, 1491-1517.
Size: 32 x 42cm (12.5 x 16.4 inches)
Verso text: French
Condition: Age-toned, bottom margin trimmed to neat line.
Condition Rating: B
References: Shirley (World), 17.
From: Mer des Hystoires. Paris, c. 1544.
Circular woodcut map printed from 2 woodblocks on 2 sheets joined. First published in 1488 (Shirley 15). In 1491, new slightly reduced woodblocks were cut in Lyons for the "Mer des Hystoires", a French translation of the "Rudimentum Novitiorum". Later published in Paris from 1517 until 1555. Very rare.
The Rudimentum Novitiorum, a popular illustrated world history, was first published at Lübeck in 1475 and later became more widely known through its French translation under the title Mer des Hystoires. Among numerous fine woodcut illustrations and genealogical tables are two double-page maps: one of Palestine and one of the world. These are the first printed maps to try and show land forms and countries in topographical relation to each other. The world map derives from a Christianised medieval tradition without any reference to either Ptolemaic or portolan sources, and is a vivid piece of early cartographical design.
The world map is circular in form, oriented with east at the top and Jerusalem in the centre. The rough outline of Europe and the Mediterranean lands can be made out with the names of individual countries marked on clusters of hills. The Pope is prominent in the walled city of Rome. The Asian and Afrian countries are all represented by hills surrounded by water. Numerous towns, throned kings, and mythical animals are depicted, and extend to Taprobana (beyond Persia and India), Ethiopia (beyond Egypt) and to Tartary and the Sea of Amazons to the north. The pillars of Hercules bar the way westwards at the bottom of the map. At its head - instead of the traditional Adam and Eve - are two priestly figures in a walled orchard holding what may be olive branches. These may be the Master and his novice, source of rivers and all knowledge; alternatively according to H. Winter (Imago Mundi IX, 1952) they may represent ". . . two men of marvellous wisdom, Jew and Christian . . . united in love of God in one law and one road to wisdom", (Shirley)

Help Guinness Give Back by Painting the Town Black in Honor of the Country's Bravest this St. Patrick's Day
NORWALK, Conn., Feb. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/-- This St. Patrick's Day season, Guinness & Co. is teaming up with the Leary Firefighters Foundation (LFF) to invite all legal drinking age adults to responsibly raise a pint of the black stuff in support of firefighters across the country. Guinness will encourage consumers to get involved through the brand's "$100,000 Pour," a live GUINNESS® pint mosaic that will be comprised of consumer pledges, each of which represents $1 of the $100,000 donation that Guinness has committed to the LFF. Together with the LFF, Guinness will help provide the necessary equipment, technology and training to America's bravest.
"Firefighters demonstrate a selfless commitment to protecting the lives of the American people day in and day out," said Doug Campbell, GUINNESS® Brand Director. "These men and women are undoubtedly made of more and we're excited to celebrate them with a beer that is made of more. We hope that this St. Patrick's Day, people will take a moment to salute their service by pledging to paint the town black responsibly."
To support the LFF and be a part of the $100,000 Pour, adult GUINNESS® fans can pledge by texting "GUINNESS" to 878787. In response to their text, fans will receive a link to an image of a personalized pint glass and a confirmation number. Fans can enter their confirmation number at www.GuinnessGivesBack.com and find the pint they "poured" within the 100,000 pint mosaic. Progress toward completion of the mosaic will also be tracked in real-time on a billboard in New York City's Times Square.
The Leary Firefighters Foundation was founded in 2000 by actor Denis Leary after a tragic fire in Worcester, Mass. claimed the lives of his cousin, childhood friend, and four other firefighters. The Foundation's mission is to provide funding and resources to fire departments across the country to ensure they are able to obtain the best available equipment, technology and training. Since its inception in 2000, the LFF has raised over $10 million that has been utilized to provide critical resources, including a state-of-the-art high rise training facility for the Fire Department of New York (FDNY).
"Guinness' support of the Foundation is the largest sustained partnership we've seen in our thirteen-year history," says Leary, who is active in the day-to-day operations of the Foundation. "Thanks to the support of the brand and its loyal fans, firefighters across the country will receive critical resources, training, and education that will help maintain the highest level of safety for the heroes serving within our communities across the US."
Join Guinness in supporting the Leary Firefighters Foundation this St. Patrick's Day, and remember that the best way to paint the town black is to do so responsibly.

NewsCity Welcomes Northern Municipal Leaders
Wednesday, August 8, 2012 - 4:27 PM The city played host a few weeks ago to elected leaders from urban, rural, and first nations communities across Northwestern Alberta. Mayor Bill Given says the meetings, which are held every three months and rotated across the region, give the leaders the opportunity to discuss issues of common concern. He adds this latest session saw a lot of discussion surrounding ambulance services. "The impact of the closure of the Edmonton City Centre Airport, as well as some of the training opportunities that Alberta Health Services EMS would like to bring forward. So it was really good to share that information broadly to all of those folks that share the same concerns as the city of Grande Prairie does."
The conference also gave the Regional EMS Foundation the opportunity to solicit support from other northern municipalities for their Human Patient Simulation Unit. Most Viewed Stories More Local

This simple and handy list of financial aid information websites and tools from Andrea Aronson, a NJ-based college admissions counselor, is a "must keep" for any student who is interested in applying for financial aid.
(PRWEB) December 13, 2012
In her latest blog post on the GreatCollegeAdvice.com website, Andrea Aronson, a college admissions specialist based in Westfield, New Jersey, gives readers her list of preferred websites that students and their families can use when trying to understand the world of financial aid.
Her recommendations are timely since financial aid application season is about to be in full swing. The Free Application for Financial Student Assistance (FAFSA), which must be filled out by all students who are seeking federal governmental aid, will become available on January 1, 2013, while the CSS Profile, an additional form required by selected colleges who provide institutional aid, became available on October 1, 2012. Ms. Aronson wrote a previous blog post in which she provided information about the CSS Profile and some of its confusing aspects.
"The Web is filled with lots of information about financial aid. Unfortunately, having too much information can also be overwhelming, and students and their families don't necessarily know the best sources to look to for their particular questions and needs," stated Ms. Aronson. "I've tried to provide them with a list of what I consider to be the most helpful and trusted sites."
In her article, My Top Websites for Financial Aid Information, Ms. Aronson, a Senior Associate with Montgomery Educational Consulting, provides lists of sites in three main areas: successful completion of the FAFSA and CSS Profile, discussion of the general financial aid landscape, and international student issues.
In addition to just informational sites, she also provides links to some excellent tools, including some that help students forecast their potential debt and the time required to repay what they might borrow. "I find that interactive tools, such as some of those that I've suggested, really help students to get a clearer picture of their financial situation. And besides, those sites are more fun to visit!" Ms. Aronson remarked.
Worrying about how you're going to fund your education is stressful to begin with, and trying to sort through the mountain of information that is out there can add to the stress. Having a simple list of useful sites and links that can answer a student's questions can make the process much less of a hassle.
From offices in Colorado and New Jersey, Montgomery Educational Consulting offers comprehensive, personalized educational counseling services to students locally, around the country, and around the world. These college admissions experts guide students every step of the way as they navigate the university search and application process. Then, they help students get admitted to the college that is right for them.

McKenna campaign begins fundraising for legal efforts in governor's race
By BRIAN KELLY
Bainbridge Island Review Editor
November 7, 2012 · 10:55 AM
Rob McKenna's campaign for governor issued an urgent plea early this morning to supporters for donations to help with "legal and vote-chasing efforts."
The request for money came in the wake of early vote returns that show Democrat Jay Inslee with a slim lead in the race.
Inslee collected 51.3 percent of the vote in the Election Night tally, while McKenna, a Republican, had 48.6 percent.
With more than 1.9 million votes counted in the race, Inslee leads by 50,209 votes.
Randy Pepple, McKenna's campaign manager, sent an email at 12:14 a.m. Wednesday to supporters asking for donations of $5.
"Team – I need to make this brief," Pepple said in the email. "The first returns are in, and the election is too close to call – so we need to chase votes in order to win this election. And we need to be prepared for whatever legal roadblocks that the other side has prepared for us.
"We have come too far to give up now. I had hoped that the time for fundraising would have passed, but now we are going into overtime - can you please give $5 to fund our legal and vote chasing efforts?"
Pepple noted that the campaign needs to go door to door to contact voters who have not had their ballots counted in the contest.
"Over 20,000 ballots have already been rejected by county election officials," Pepple wrote. "We need to ensure the voices of these voters are heard, by first finding these voters and then having them verify their ballot.
"It is going to require us to go door to door until we find everyone and make sure these ballots are counted.
"We knew this was going to be close and we knew this was not going to be easy. We have just a little more work until we win this. Thank you for your help," he wrote.

The 3-hole-punched paper is the best price we could find. The new packaging, however, does not hold up well in transit -- some of the glue comes loose and the seams have split open by the time we get the shipment.

The first trail run will take place at 7.00am on Saturday 22 November, 2008 in the Montacute Conservation Park and Cudlee Creek Forest area with a climb to the top of what we hope to not be aptly named "Mt Misery" (Great name for a first up run!). Assemble at the end of Valley Rd, Montacute, which runs off Corkscrew Rd at 6.45 for trail briefing and 7.00am start everyone most welcome (you don't need to be a SARRC member) no need to say you are coming, just turn up!
Generally we will try and organize these regular informal trail runs not too far from the city and as loop runs to avoid car pooling; offer a variety of distances so that runners (and walkers too perhaps) of all abilities can participate at the level/pace/distance that best suits them; will get people into some of the most beautiful areas of the Adelaide hills that are not so commonly accessed; choose the second or third Saturday each month that conflicts least with any other events; and make sure that the finish is not too far from a coffee shop and/or bakery!
Maps and trail instructions will be sent out by email in advance so that runners can print them off to carry with them on the run. Runners need to also bring all their own supplies water, food, first aid etc.
If you would like to go on the trail run email distribution list to receive regular updates about these runs PM me (I am away from computer from Tuesday to Friday just prior to the first run) or do so through the SARRC website SARRC website which should have an email contact up and running in next few days.
Happy to answer any questions via this forum

Comments about Aqua Converts Standard LP Hose to fit Sea Quest Air Source & Zeagle Octo+ BCD Connector (A138):
This allowed me to use a greater range of hose lengths for my Air Source. Also allows me to switch from Air Source to BC hose or other Octo without having to have separate hoses/detach hoses from my first stage every time. The down sides are that it is a bit bulkier and Heavier than the standard Connector, and sometimes it won't seal to the Air Source nipple correctly unless it is pressurized before attaching it. But that's a simple thing to deal with, just open your tank before attaching it.

SEC's Schapiro will move on
Supporters says she kept the Securities and Exchange Commission alive and rebuilt its image as tough cop. Critics say the SEC still isn't aggressive enough.
There are two schools of thought about Mary Schapiro's tenure as chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Schapiro announced she will leave the job on Dec. 14, and President Obama named Elisse Walter to succeed her. He may name a permanent chairman later.
- Schapiro did much to restore the SEC's credibility after what is said to be eight wasted years in during the George W. Bush administration.
- She was a pansy for Wall Street.
There's no question the SEC had an image problem when Schapiro came on board in early 2009.
The commission regulated with the lightest of hands during the Bush years. A result was the forced merger of Bear Stearns into JPMorgan Chase (JPM) in March 2008 and the Lehman Brothers collapse six months later, key contributors to the 2008-09 financial crash.
The commission also totally missed the signs that Bernard Madoff was bilking investors of millions of dollars.
Schapiro did beef up the SEC's enforcement efforts. The SEC filed dozens of enforcement actions related to the financial crisis. The SEC sued Goldman Sachs (GS) in 2010, accusing it of fraud when it sold investors a mortgage security without disclosing that hedge fund Paulson & Co. helped pick the loans and bet against them. Goldman paid a record $550 million fine.
It did force the prosecution and conviction of hedge-fund manager Raj Rajaratnam on inside-trading charges. Former Countrywide Financial CEO Angelo Mozilo was penalized $22.5 million to settle SEC charges that he and two other former Countrywide executives misled investors as the subprime mortgage crisis emerged. Mozilo also agreed to disgorge $45 million in stock profits. Countrywide is now part of Bank of America (BAC).
There was talk after the financial crisis about abolishing the SEC. No more.
And yet critics say Schapiro didn't make the most of the bully pulpit of the agency. The SEC extracted large settlements from the likes of Bank of America, Goldman and Citigroup, but the commission chose not to -- or was unable to -- obtain admissions of wrongdoing from top executives personally.
Bank of America also agreed in 2010 to a $150 million settlement of charges it lied to shareholders about its financial condition and its prospects after agreeing to buy Merrill Lynch. But federal Judge Jed Rakoff refused to approve the first suggestion of a $33 million penalty and thought the $150 million settlement too small. In his opinion, Rakoff wrote, "While better than nothing, this is half-baked justice at best."
At the same time, the SEC struggled to show it has a grasp on an increasingly fragmented market dominated by electronic and high-speed trading. Schapiro supervised adjustments of trading practices and set the stage for a future computer surveillance system after a computer program employed by one firm sparked a 20-minute plunge in stock prices, temporarily erasing $862 billion of market value.
Schapiro was also unable to get a majority of the five-member SEC to back tightened rules for money-market funds. The $2.6 trillion piece of the mutual-fund industry is believed by many to pose a large risk to the nation's financial system.
While Walter is the chairman for the foreseeable future, there is apparently talk that Obama will name a permanent chairman. It could be Walter.
Names also being floated include Mary Miller, a senior Treasury Department official; Financial Industry Regulatory Authority Chairman Richard Ketchum; former SEC commissioner Harvey Goldschmid and William Brodsky, chairman and CEO of the CBOE Holdings (CBOE), operator of the Chicago Board Options Exchange.
The New York Times said that Sallie Krawcheck, the former head of global wealth management at Merrill Lynch and a top executive at Citigroup (C) is in the running as well.
One last note: After Schapiro leaves, the commission will have four members. Two will be Democrats and two Republicans. Yes, that means gridlock is a real possibility.

text: The Show Catwalk Fashion Shows Spring/Summer 2009 Ready-To-Wear Nicole Farhi 16 September 2008 Dolly Jones ONE of the most stalwart labels on the London Fashion Week schedule, Nicole Farhi's show in the Royal Opera House this morning was just that: solid, reliable and perfectly wearable. Smudged indigo floral prints on pinafore dresses had an innocent elegance – calling to mind the demure Southern American women Nicole said she had been inspired by for the season. One gorgeous lemon yellow belted coat is bound to spawn a waiting list by the morning and sweet court shoes lined on the outside with satin to match the sundresses above them were pretty and easy to wear. Less convincing were the baggy chiffon leggings that came under several looks – but despite the slightly off-centre styling, linen sun dresses, fine Fair Isle knits, one peach, coral and yellow waffly ruched sundress (which perfectly illustrated the Fujiya & Miyagi single Knickerbocker, which has been the star player on several soundtracks so far), delicate English grasses embroidered on to white linen and pretty coloured glass necklaces will keep plenty of Farhi's loyal fans looking their best next summer. However, in a season when London is fighting to be recognised as the birthplace of the big ideas, we were left wishing we had seen more of them here. With ex-Browns boss Niki Scordi recently having been installed in the driving seat of this business - co-owned by Farhi's ex-husband and French Connection boss Stephen Marks – the label is due a new energy next season – watch this space.

Cycling in Melbourne Australia
Tags: Bike, Main, Trail, Yarra, paths
From BV In The Loop Member news 10 March 2011:
10 March 2011. The year-long closure of the Main Yarra Trail at Burnley is to get worse with the diversion now extended until at least July, causing massive disruption to the thousands of riders on the route each day.
Riders are at the end of their tether as the reopening of the trail is now a year later than originally promised.
Various re-opening dates have been announced, only to be abandoned, leaving riders to continue negotiating the circuitous and poorly executed detour around the Monash Freeway strengthening works.
The latest delay is due to asbestos being found buried under the freeway.
There can be few other minor public works projects that have gone so far beyond schedule than this project.
Bike riders have been treated with contemptuous disregard.
No doubt embarrassed by the debacle, the M1 Alliance which is responsible for the project, is considering a list of possible improvements to the trail submitted by Bicycle Victoria.
We have asked that they offset the inconvenience caused by investing in improvements to the trail.
Please write to M1 Alliance and politely request that they repay the goodwill shown to them by the bike riding community as we have suffered from their mismanagement."
And CItyLink website says:
CityLink apologises for the inconvenience, but to ensure the safety of pedestrians, cyclists, and our construction workers the prolonged closure is necessary.
CityLink is working hard to complete the strengthening works in the shortest possible timeframe and will reopen the trail prior to July if possible.
We thank you for your patience.
You can download a detour route for motorists or detour route for bicyclists."
I still vote that the photographed poster is an April fool's prank...... ;P
Yep, definite pisstake, good job too. If only they would use their talents for good instead of evil ie:
rewrite it to read that the M1 will be closed for two years for the up grade of the bicycle path!
Apologies for going OT, but don't understand this bit
Riders are at the end of their tether
I'm not a freaking horse.
I was waiting for the photo of the sign. That looks about as realistic as a Greens media release saying if they were in government they would have trams running everywhere.
You could buy some traffic cones from Bunnings (I believe I have seen them there), cordon off the left lane of the Monash and put up some bike lane signs (which you can order online). Something along the lines of the 2 left lanes of the Westgate being cordoned off for bikes for Around The Bay In A Day.
Some cyclists are shaving up to a second off their journey by riding on the wrong side of the road to avoid the roundabout at Coppin and Barkly Streets corner, on the M1 diversion.
Obviously this is only partly-dangerous for the rider and any perceptions, by other road users or park users, about the legitimacy of cycling is fleeting.
I'll hunt through my helmet-cam video footage if you like, can show you dozens of motorists around Clayton and Oakleigh who either drive straight over the top of roundabouts or turn right by going anti-clockwise around them. Pretty damn terrifying when they do it head-on at you. Some people do it on bikes too.
Some people are idiots, some on foot, some in cars, some on bikes. They'll keep on doing it while the chances of being penalised are minimal.
CityLink advises that there are no additional works being done and we are committed to completing the works which impact the Yarra trail by July 2011. Changes to these signs were not made by CityLink and have now been removed.

The NABO Project Management System was created by David Bruce at the School of GeoSciences, University of Edinburgh and is based on the Geographical Information Projects Registry (GIPR). As part of his MSc in GIS he reviewed and enhanced the already existing GIPR system to create a self-sustaining user-driven service. The purpose of the GIPR is to provide a service via which members of the Scottish GI community and beyond can share knowledge about their projects and initiatives and create new partnerships. Many thanks to David for all his work.
The NABO webpages are hosted by the School of GeoSciences at the University of Edinburgh.

Fuels Tax - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
As a supplier, can I take the .005 percent discount on fuel delivered to stations owned by my company?
- No. Virginia law does not allow the discount for intra-company transactions.
When can my supplier draft my account for the fuels taxes that I owe?
- If you are a licensed distributor or an importer, you are not required to pay the supplier until the day the supplier is required to pay the tax to DMV. Therefore, your account cannot be drafted until that day. The accounts of other persons would be drafted in accordance with their agreements with the suppliers.
Can I make my tax payments to DMV electronically?
- DMV accepts electronic payments through the Automated Clearinghouse (ACH) credit and debit formats. You can choose either of these efficient cash management tools that ensure payments are made on time. For more information on electronic payment options, see Paying Fuels Tax.
Why do exporters need registered agents?
- Virginia law requires exporters and others to have a Virginia registered agent. The agent acts as a representative of the business should DMV be required to serve legal notice to the business.
Why does DMV give the federal government different exemptions than state or local governments?
- The fuel tax exemptions for federal, state, and local governments are the same. Purchases by state and local government are subject to the Virginia Petroleum Storage Fee (Tank Fee).
Why do some licensees have to file tax security with DMV and some don't?
- The purpose of filing tax security is to assure that DMV receives the tax owed to Virginia should there be a default in payment. Licensees who pay tax directly to DMV, who receive the One Percent Discount, or who defer tax payment are required to file tax security.
Can an aviation consumer sell fuel to another aviation consumer tax free?
- No. Aviation consumers can receive tax free fuel only from a supplier or a licensed distributor.
Can I receive credit for unpaid taxes?
- If you are a licensed distributor or an importer, you can NOT receive credit from DMV for taxes that customers fail to pay after December 31, 2000. Collection of the tax is strictly a business arrangement between you and your customer. Suppliers can be given a credit for taxes that a licensed distributor or an importer fails to pay. Providers of alternative fuel can receive credit for taxes that a bonded bulk user of alternative fuel or a bonded retailer of alternative fuel fails to pay.
How do I get the credit for the unpaid taxes?
- If you are a supplier or a provider of alternative fuel, you must: a). notify DMV of the default by submitting a Notice of Tax Payment Default form (FT214) within 10 business days from the date you were required to pay the taxes to DMV, and b). provide the default information on your NEXT monthly report. Note: You may deduct those tax payments that were not remitted by a licensed distributor or importer from your next monthly report.

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. and#8212; Fourth of July fireworks are no fun for dogs. Historically, Washoe County Regional Animal Services is flooded with calls from pet owners searching for dogs that became lost while trying to flee from the loud noise of the fireworks.
On July 4 and 5 of 2011, Regional Animal Services retrieved 73 lost dogs over a 24-hour period.
and#8220;Most lost dog reports involve dogs that were left out in the yard during the fireworks,and#8221; said Regional Animal Services Manager Barry Brode. and#8220;But we have had reports of dogs taking more extreme measures, such as jumping through open windows, in their effort to escape the noise.
and#8220;These dogs are often found many miles from home and weand#8217;ve heard stories of dogs hiding under decks or sheds for days after the fireworks.and#8221;
Regional Animal Services offers the following safety tips to pet owners for the Fourth of July holiday:
and#8226; Before the fireworks start, bring and keep your dog inside.
and#8226; Keep windows and doors closed.
and#8226; Leave a radio, television, fan, or air conditioner on as these will help to lower the noise from outside.
and#8226; If you know your dog does experience extreme anxieties to loud noises, it may be worthwhile to contact your veterinarian to see what recommendations they have.
and#8226; The best way for everyone to get the most enjoyment from a firework display, is to leave your pets at home.
Regional Animal Services staff also encourages dog owners to make sure all pets have identification tags and microchips just in case they do get lost. This will expedite getting pets and their families reunited.
and#8220;Our goal is to help all members of your family enjoy a happy and safe Fourth of July celebration,and#8221; Brode said.
For more information, contact Washoe County Regional Animal Services at 775-322-3647 or visit ww.co.washoe.nv.us/animal.

-Represent. We would like you to most of the time.
-This is an adult guild. There will be perverted talking, hell I will probably be one of the worst. It will be graded, but be civil about it and not just disgusting and crude.

1. | minnesota nice | ||
To be "Minnesota nice" is to be passive aggressive. I'm Minnesota nice. When I'm angry at someone, I don't let them know. I just smile pleasantly to his or her face and then proceed to talk about them behind their back. I will most likely hold a grudge too.
2. | minnesota nice | ||
Minnesota Nice is what you would call someone from minnesota who goes out of their way to be too nice. Even in a situation where they could be justified in being angry and upset they will still remain pleasant. Usually used in a sentence cynically to describe someone who was the exact opposite. "... wow, he isn't exactly 'minnesota nice'. He shouldn't be so rude."
3. | minnesota nice | ||
1.Typically confused with being extremely caring, helpful and pleasant. Being from the area, I know it REALLY means that a Minnesotan won't slam you to your face - they do it behind your back so as to APPEAR nice.
2. Back stabbing Describing your girlfriend as a slut to one of your best friends is considered Minnesota nice.
4. | minnesota nice | ||
Used to really mean genuinely nice, open, thoughtful and caring. Politically progressive, socially aware, doing for others, wanting to learn about other people and cultures. I came to Minnesota 30 years ago, from New York City, where I grew up. New Yorkers aren't rude, we are just honest and efficient. I had had problems with passive aggressive people from other places who were "nice" to your face and back stabbing. So I was naturally leery of these Minnesota people. But no, they were really nice. But things have been changing, even here. It is very sad to an aging peace/love hippie idealist. Still lots of cool folks though. Cool, like the weather. When my new neighbor asked about my ethnic background, I thought she was prejudiced, but she was just being Minnesota nice and wanted to learn more about me.
I think a lot of Minnesota nice originated with the Scandanavian social customs and the need to pull together to survive the harsh winters during pioneer times. Our late Senator Paul Wellstone was being Minnesota nice when he said "We all do better when we all do better." |
5. | Minnesota Nice | ||
A used by rude, "me first", and backstabbing people to convince others how nice they're supposed to be.
Someone who's generally the opposite of what they're trying to sell themselves as. A phony. "What's wrong with you, can't you see how Minnesota NICE we are?"
That cunt slipped her way to the front of the line, in true Minnesota Nice fashion. |

text: Lancaster (WBEN) -- Michael Ettipio has pleaded guilty to 1st degree vehicular manslaughter in the May 3 hit-and-run death of teenage bicyclist Bryce Buchholz. The Erie County District Attorney's office on Thursday announced the guilty plea. The office says it's the highest charge for which the defendant could've been convicted had he gone to trial. The D.A.'s office says Ettipio had a blood-alcohol (BAC) level of .24 percent -- three times the legal limit -- while driving along Lake Avenue in the town of Lancaster. Ettipio then struck and killed Buchholz, 14, from behind as the teenager rode his bike. The defendant then fled the scene. Several people witnessed the fatal crash, the office says. One of the witnesses, Benny Kirkland, followed the defendant to his home, seized Ettipio, brought him back to the crime scene, and surrendered Ettipio to the Lancaster Police. The defendant faces a maximum prison sentence of five to 15 when years when he's sentenced on September 13 at 9:30 a.m.

Customers Please Note: Although our offices are located in Canada, most of our merchandise is shipped directly from our U.S. Warehouse. Due to the fact that 90% of our customers are U.S. Residents, and to better serve our customers, we found that it would be better to ship directly from our U.S. Warehouse. Canadian and International Customers are responsible for custom duties, taxes and fees that would normally be charged for products purchased in the US. Please check with your country's customs department for more information. We do ship International Orders through the Postal Service as they charge only a fraction of the Duties and Customs fees that Courier Companies charge for International Shipments. The customer is responsible for customs clearance, import duties, and any other storage or custom related fees. We recommend that non-U.S. Bikers' Den customers contact their local customs office for details on how these charges are assessed and supplied. Refused shipments will incur a 10% restocking fee. We are sorry, but we are unable to refund the shipping charges on refused shipments. Please feel free to Contact Us if you have any further questions about shipping and custom duties.
We want you to be totally satisfied with your purchase and that is why we offer this simple 30 Day Product Exchange / Money Back Guarantee.

Please note that we are unable to refund or exchange products that have been used and/or display visible signs of use. Additionally, all shipping charges incurred to exchange an item(s), are the customers responsibility. When we have received your returned products, we will issue a credit to your credit card equaling the cost of the item. ** Clearance items will receive store credit only. ** Original shipping charges and shipping costs for returns and exchanges are non-refundable. Also note, when returning an item that was originally a free shipping promotion, the original shipping charges will be deducted from the refunded amount or store credit.

Updated Jan 17, 2013 - 6:43 pm
Report: Bevell gets new contract from Seahawks
Darrell Bevell will return to the Seahawks as the team's offensive coordinator after interviewing for two head-coaching positions.
Bevell was in Tempe, Ariz. Wednesday meeting with the Cardinals. ESPN reports he withdrew his name from consideration when the Seahawks gave him a new contract. ESPN and other outlets are reporting the Cardinals will hire Colts offensive coordinator Bruce Arians. The Cardinals have the league's lone remaining head-coaching vacancy.
Bevell also interviewed with the Bears, who instead hired former CFL coach Marc Trestman. The Jaguars had requested and received permission to interview Bevell. Jacksonville hired Seahawks defensive coordinator Gus Bradley Thursday.
Bevell's return maintains continuity on the Seahawks' offensive coaching staff and spares team from having to replace both coordinators. Seattle could lose defensive line coach Todd Wash should he join his close friend Bradley in Jacksonville.
