The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
I know they exist somewhere but I haven't been able to find the ratings for discs that show the numbers to the tenth... what i mean is that the Vulcan, for instance, says 13 speed, -4 turn, 2 fade on it, but it's actually 13.5 speed, -4.1 turn, etc....
Anyone know of where these exacting numbers might be?

Yeah i like there ratings system too, althogh all it is is Innova's standards but used on all makes and models
Sorry, you are looking for information which does not exist from any source. More exacting flight rating numbers will give you no better insight into how a disc will fly.
It is easier to assume that every run of every disc is a little (or a lot) different from every other run. Even within runs, different weighs and colors will create more variance.
Drivers will vary more than Mids or Putters. Big rimmed drivers will vary more than smaller rimmed drivers. Drivers in different plastic blends are almost guaranteed to vary from one another.
If a flight rating broken down to a tenth of a point gives you some illusory satisfaction then feel free to add even more numbers. How about a speed rating of 13.536? The only thing a high speed rating really tells you is that the disc has a wide rim.
If you want to know how a disc flies, throw it. If you want a disc just like the one you love then get another of the same mold from the same run in the same color in the same weight, with the same degree of wear. Or just do what the rest of us do: take any flight rating as a general guideline then learn and adapt to your new disc when you get it.
Once you find a mold which works for you, future runs will probably work, too, maybe even better. Slight variations are useful to players with enough skill to recognize the differences and adjust to them.
That's pretty disappointing information, Mark. To think that even the top disc golf manufacturers have a wide enough range of errors to make different flights from the same weight and model is kind of unsettling, really. Hopefully as the sport progresses, they'll be able to improve on that.
Different colors on the same-weighted disc types affect the flight pattern??? Really??? How so? The tackiness of the plastic, maybe? I mean, if they're measured at the same weight, what does that matter?
Molding a disc is part science, part art and part voodoo.
Bulk plastics come in little beads which the disc manufacturers blend with different kinds of plastics in varying percentages, weighting agents, hardening agents and coloring agents to make a disc. All that stuff gets melted together then squirted into a mold where it pops out and cools.
Plastics available in the market are constantly changing and none of them are specifically designed for discs. Whatever plastic you loved a couple years ago in your favorite driver no longer is made, an "upgraded" version has replaced it, which may be better or worse but certainly is different.
The $10 to $20 you pay for a disc would be much greater if the manufacturers created controlled environments (like a medical laboratory) with constant temperatures and humidity, as those factors change how discs come out. In ball golf a new driver costs hundreds of dollars. This kind of "progress" may not be what you want in your sport.
It takes only a tiny change in a disc to affect how it flies. Two discs which look identical to the naked eye-even a trained naked eye-can fly differently. As a disc cools coming out of the mold it dries. While it dries the dome may raise or lower. The height of the dome can drastically affect stability, even in tiny changes you would need a micrometer to notice. If the blue coloring agents dry differently than the red coloring agents then the stability of the disc is different.
Think of a disc as coming from a mold (what the melted plastic gets squirted into). Change the ingredients and you get a different product. A cake also comes from the mold. How much salt does it take to change the taste? Change the settings on the oven or the conditions in the kitchen and you get a different product.
For a beginning player the changes in runs don't matter since they cannot throw consistently enough to notice them. As players develop skill and consistency they learn to memorize the discs in their bags and the flight patterns generated by their throwing styles and power levels. Discs, especially in candy plastics ( Z, Champ) or candy blends ( ESP, X, FLX, Star) are remarkably durable and retain their flight characteristics for a long time, allowing players to learn them precisely, even as conditions on the course change.
By the time you love a disc and use it for years it may be impossible to exactly replace it, as that disc has broken in. But since you have learned to adapt you apply that skill to the next disc and learn it.
+2 thumbs up.. Thanks Mr Ellis for opening another mind..

If you could, what kind of superpower would you choose?
I suppose many of us would like to have some superpowers making us even more special than what we are now. Do you want to be invisible, do you want to speak 500 languages fluently, what would you like to know? Be creative!!
Apr 3 2013: G'day Tibor
I already have it, it's called life!!!
Apr 3 2013: The power of life! I agree with that one Mathew:>)
Included in life, is Love, which is also very powerful:>)
Apr 4 2013: a little kid would respond"everbody has that power...iwant somethin special"...nah..i thumbed ur comment up there. twas very beautiful. thank you.
Apr 4 2013: Thanks Nathan. Perhaps we could listen to, and learn from kids more often:>)Apr 16 2013: Hmm idk, I see what everyone is saying with the power of life, but when talking about superpowers, i feel that means something above and beyond what we are already in the present. Superpowers are things that the great majority of us or even all of us cant do in our present lifetime. In earlier history using fire, mirrors, and smoke would cause the belief in magic or superpowers by unknowing viewers. As we gained knowledge about how our world works and the inner workings of molecules and elements we gain more and more "superpowers." In all honesty is it wrong to say that at some point in time ben franklin and nicholas tesla had superpowers? That of electricity? Now all of us have their very same ability if not more (or at least the knowledge of how this "power" works) So for the anwser of life, i feel that shames humans as dreamers, believers, inovators. Its almost like were just settling with life. We need to go above and beyond and question and dream about where we could go next, with such a question. Push our boundries and expand them. But enough about that, for me personally, since were talking about superpowers im taking into consideration all superheroes, abilities, movies, syfi & fiction products. In that, i come to the conclusion of being a very very powerful jedi knight. (yes yes a bit nerdy but wait) Think about it, you can read and control minds, control and move objects, (inanimate & organic) produce lighting, heightened physical capabilities, (spped, agility, jumping, flight etc) even possibly becoming powerful enough to control life itself, see the future. Really being a powerful jedi enables you to pretty much do whatever you want! So thats what i would be! Also just a sidenote-on the superhereo topic, if youve seen any of the ironman movies, or the avengers, tony starks digital computer tech that he has everywhere-well we have that, if you havent seen or heard anything about it i encourage you to do so, but look up sixth sense technology!

Apr 4 2013: I would like to extend education and culture over large tracts of people, like the ink stains the water, with only one touch. No education, no future. At least, no good future.Apr 4 2013: Tibor, Thanks, however I would opt out. I believe myself to be honest, ethical, and moral but the temptations that would come from posession of a unrestricted power would corrupt even the best of "humans".

We saw this in the comedy .. Bruce Almighty .. given powers in a small area he disrupted nature, his life and the lives of others even when his intentions were good. A funny look at "power".
I often wish I had the power to prevent, cure, or relieve suffering ... even this small "gift" would disrupt the natural selection and the balance that is required.
I wish you well. Bob.
Apr 4 2013: Dear Robert,
I perceive being honest, ethical and moral to be powerful and special, in that everything that contributes to the whole in a beneficial way is special and has power:>)
I just got the same notice when trying to give you thumbs up Bob...."users sharing the same internet connection cannot rate each other's comments!!! Must be a technical challenge with TED's system.
Apr 5 2013: I got that message earlier today as well.
Apr 15 2013: I notified Morton Bast. She said they were working on this problem at TEDApr 15 2013: I notified Morton Bast. She said they were working on this problem at TED
Apr 15 2013: Hi Bob,
I notified them when it was happening, and it was fixed right away....a couple weeks ago....for me anyway.....is it still happening for you?Apr 16 2013: Nope, I sent you a T U just now and it works ... thanks. Bob.

When ya first get the super power (like flying) ya have to learn how to use it. If ya live through you're first several crashes, landings, etc. ya just might have enough strength to do some good with it.
So you're flying through the air & see a crime in progress. You fly down to save the day and the criminal ducts & U slam into the wall. So much for saving the day! When ya wake up from hitting the wall (if U survive) you find yourself in jail or on a slab to be bisected. Need I go on or do ya get the picture?
The above applies to other super powers too but in different way.
Humans do have great powers now, it is getting folks to use them in the right ways is the hard part.
Apr 3 2013: Dear Gale,
I think I get the picture, and although it ain't pretty at times, on the other side, it can be very beautiful?
One thing that comes to mind for me, is....if it doesn't kill us, it makes us stronger!
We have super power....we need to learn to use it appropriately........yes?....I agree:>)

that. with great power comes great.......nah jk id take it out on a
materialist and be like here's some particle matter for you...nah juss
playin I wouldn't think of such a thing.Apr 3 2013: I agree with Seamu McGrenery:we already have superpowers,but wiser we need to know how to use them in balance.Apr 3 2013: Personally I believe that we already have superpowers.
The theory of evolution tells us that we are a species of ape, yet we can do things that are far beyond the capabilities of our bodies. We can; lift great weights, fly, talk to people on the other side of the planet. We are super apes.
As for what new super powers there are lots that I would choose: To travel through space, to live a healthy engaged life beyond one hundred.
The great thing about being a super ape is that, if enough of us want something, we can make it happen. We can create new super powers.
Apr 3 2013: super ape! thats a unique one!

Apr 3 2013: You already have it my friend:>)
I wish to elaborate Yusuf.
We recently shared a conversation in which we agreed with some things and did not agree with some elements, and the discussion flowed with respect and understanding....in my humble perception. That is why I perceive you to have the power to understand anything. When we are open minded, open hearted, and willing to genuinely observe, explore and assimilate the thoughts, feelings and ideas of others, we DO have the power to understand in many different ways. I appreciate your understanding, which is powerful:>)
Yusuf Khan
Apr 4 2013: Thank you Colleen. I feel that you are wise in many ways and that true appreciation can come from understanding things better! If we don't get challenged on our thoughts as well as the way we see things, how would we learn and thus progress in life?
- +1
As you may notice, I'm still kind of young, so I may not yet know alot, but I do aspire to get better. With people like you, there's always place for thought and development, thank you Colleen.
By the way! What super power would you want to have?
Apr 4 2013: Thank you too Yusuf:>)
When we started conversing, I read your profile, as I often do, and one thing that touched me is your statement..."The way things fit together and work has always intruiged me as the revelation of understanding is one of the most understated feelings".
I also like to discover "the way things fit together", and the exploration of human behaviors and communication has always fascinated me.
I believe with an open heart and mind, conversing with respect and kindness can open so many doors that we may think/feel are not possible. I believe this to be powerful:>) I agree that this can be challenging, and I also agree that we have the opportunity to learn and progress in life when we embrace this practice.
You may be young, and I also perceive you as very wise:>) To me, the first "wisdom" we may be aware of, is being open hearted/open minded. From there, we may discover the "superpower" we are seeking.
There is nothing I "want", because I feel that I have everything I need in this life adventure. As indicated in my conversation with Gale, on this thread, I believe that as humans, we have a great deal of strength, courage and power, and part of the life journey is to discover how to use it to the best of our ability in an appropriate way.....that is......a way that we can learn, grow and evolve as individuals, while at the same time contributing to the whole. Thanks for asking:>)Apr 3 2013: If I could identify what is importent and needs to be done, to be able to tell that to people and get it done - Just like what never happens now when I have a good idea.
GodspeedApr 15 2013: Hi Everybody,
thanks for the very good discussion, I really enjoyed reading all your comments, although sometimes I was wondering if you are being honest or not. I know that all of us are special, we are who we are and we have to appreciate that we live, et cetera...
Somebody mentioned that we have the superpower of imagination. I understand that this is a super power (wrote separately), but so many of us have it. It is special and I am glad that I have it, but what is the thing, guys, what you would like to excel in? If there was ONE thing that only YOU COULD DO!
So.. if we have the super power of imagination - let's use it! Only one day left!Apr 4 2013: Apart from the superpower of imagination that I already have, you mean?
Apr 4 2013: Good point Pabitra! I tried to give your comment a thumbs up, and I got a notice that says... users sharing the same internet connection cannot rate each other's comments! What's up???
Apr 4 2013: :) :D Awww. We are sharing more than same internet connection my friend, haha! May be TED thinks you like me too much and thumb me up too often?
It does not matter anyway Colleen, honestly. You simply can write that you liked my comment.
Apr 4 2013: OK.....I LIKE YOUR COMMENT.....and......I believe imagination is very special and powerful. In my humble perception and experience, everything starts with a dream....and/or imagination:>)Apr 4 2013: Thumbs Up Colleen!! :)Apr 4 2013: id be like syler an eat peoples brains.....NO NO NO.JK JK JK! Hancocks pretty tight....actually if you watch the first episode of rainbow bright she has some seroous powers. shes part of a race of super evolved star people and shes pretty much given her sector of the universe to hold down .....come to think of it, green lantern stole there concept from rainbow bright! craaazy!..........i never thought a that..Apr 4 2013: omnipotenceApr 4 2013: The power to share wisdom.Apr 3 2013: Okay, fair enough, but I think you guys are too modest. :)
I feel very good and I'm a confident person and I know I don't need any superpowers to achieve great things in life, but I still thing that being able to fly or turn invisible or to have extraordinary strength would be awesome.
Or I could list so many things here - reading thoughts, knowing languages, communicate perfectly, etc..
Imagine having one of those and using them intelligently, for nice reasons, to help people...
Millions of people are in need, don't you think a superpower of creating water would help them?

Bluetick Coonhound puppies for sale
Bluetick Coonhound puppies for saleLooking at the Bluetick Coonhound dogs puppies for sale conjures up images of the country life; the hillbilly's faithful companion; a boy walking with his squirrel rifle down a country dirt road; a hound with his head out the passenger window of his owner's old pickup truck; all these are sights that are happening every day in the homeland of this breed.

This is the Tennessee raw export of the breed. The breed of today was refined though attentive to selective breeding of Louisiana breeders. Today's version is a heavier and colder nose version of the original.
Make no mistake the Bluetick Coonhound puppies do hunt. The cold nose allows them to pick up on older scents, rather than those possible by the original version of the breed. They are heavier bodied than the first Bluetick Coonhounds. The Louisianna breeders proved that the slow and steadier version were preferred over the speedy hot nosed predecessor.

They may stand twenty to twenty -seven inches tall and weigh up to eighty pounds. The short smooth coarse coat is where they get their names.

Training should be consistent and firm, starting at an early age, avoids in problems later on in life. The dogs will assert themselves as pack leader if you don't establish this as your role at an early age. The dogs are very scent oriented so they should never be off the leash, when in an unsecured environment. The bay of the Bluetick Coonhound is all hound.
The breed is a hunting breed and is bred to hunt in packs. It is never a good idea to leave the Bluetick Coonhound unsupervised around small pets. Early socialization will tend to do away with any dog-aggressive issues, but the hunt is in its blood. Small animals should never be exposed to the Blue tick Coonhound.
The Bluetick Coonhound dogs puppies for sale are a wonderful companion. They are genuinely friendly and devoted. They will protect their people and their pack. They are obedient and relatively inactive inside. They can be wonderful house dogs if they receive adequate mental and physical exercise.

Explore the Science of Monsterology
A fun, safe place to trick or treat for the whole family
Sunday, October 31, 12:00 - 4:00 p.m.
Orlando, FL - October 22, 2010 - Are you looking for a safe place to take your children during the spookiest time of the year? Kick off Halloween with a fun filled family event at the Orlando Science Center's Seventh Annual Spooktacular Science Extravaganza. On Sunday, October 31, from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., come join us for a whole days' worth of activities and events that provides a safe environment for little phantoms to explore the science of Monsterology.
Experience the true essence of Halloween by coming to the Orlando Science Center dressed up in your scariest, creepiest and most ghoulish costume. Listen to Halloween music throughout the building as you learn how to make "Ghost Goop", have an educational team demonstration about snakes and scorpions, witness a Gator creature feeding, learn all about blood, scabs and bruising and let out your inner spooky scientist as you watch experiments about dry ice and liquid nitrogen.
The multiple floors at the Science Center will provide an abundant opportunity for children to discover the secrets behind some of the most famous mythological and mysterious monsters. The youngest ghosts and goblins will be welcomed into KidsTown, where they will hear the truth behind "fairy tales" such as Little Red Riding Hood, The Three Little Pigs, and Peter and the Wolf while also enjoying face painting and animal activities.
The DinoDigs exhibit on level floor will showcase a session for children on creepy crawly critters like snakes and scorpions. Activities will also include a sand dig activity where the little ones dig for gold coins, spider rings, and hourglasses. Children will explore hieroglyphics - one of the oldest recorded forms of writing - as well as learning the historical importance of the Rosetta Stone. Other activities include a bloody bingo competition and the chance to sport a fake bruise or scab by a local makeup expert.
Since the Spooktacular Science Extravaganza is held inside the Orlando Science Center, little spectres enjoy trick or treating and themed activities rain or shine. The event is included with general admission, which is $12.00 for kids (ages 3-11), $17.00 for adults and free for children 2 & under. Admission is also free to Science Center members. For more information, please call 407.514.2000.

Training Tips for Kids
There are plenty of reasons kids get into running: exposure to your training, watching the Olympics (hey, dream big!), idolizing an older sibling, etc. And there are plenty of reasons kids should run, especially in our current culture of skyrocketing screen-and-sofa time with little to no physical activity.
But before your child starts any kind of structured running, make sure it's cleared by the pediatrician. Kids don't generally develop a mature running gait until around age 5, so for the sake of injury prevention, wait at least until kindergarten. And upgrade those Disney sneaks to the pint-sized version of your adult trainers; growing feet need cushioning, stability and a quality fit.
To keep little ones psyched about the sport and make it something they'll enjoy for the rest of their lives, running should be:
Fun. If your kid files running in the same mental category as unloading the dishwasher or taking out the trash, it's probably not going to develop into a long-lasting love. It should never feel like a drag or a punishment, and it should (mostly) be self-led. Don't cattle-prod your child out the door. Offer tons of encouragement. Come up with exciting incentives, like handing out a bracelet for each lap around the track. Make it a game or a relay. Let your child pretend he's the Flash or Lightning McQueen.
Simple. Kids don't need complicated training plans with Tempo Tuesdays and Fartlek Fridays and Long Run Sundays. If they're getting out and running/walking for 30 to 60 minutes several times a week, they're doing awesome.
Safe. Keep an eye not only on your child's actual activity, but on recovery as well. Loads of sleep, adequate hydration and good, nutritious foods are especially important. And try to relegate the running to parks, tracks, trails and fields – even your backyard – to avoid both cars and excessive pounding on hard surfaces. If anything hurts, stay away from over-the-counter pain medications. Ice, rest, and see a doctor if it's a persistent ache.
Low volume, low intensity. When it comes to kids' running, it's all about participation and having a good time. Speed should be a non-issue, and walking should be encouraged. A half-hour to an hour three to four times a week, even as part of playing games, is the perfect amount of exercise to keep your child engaged, active and healthy while avoiding burnout.

Photojournalist Bruce Davidson's stunning black-and-white images documented scenes from the 1960s civil rights movement led by Martin Luther King Jr. — from freedom marches and sit-ins to dilapidated schoolhouses and segregated movie theaters. (Many of those scenes are now highlighted at the Martin Luther King Jr. memorial in the nation's capital.)
In the video above, listen to Davidson recall the movement, his work and its impact as you view pictures from his 2002 book of photographs, Time of Change. Davidson's work recalls a period of turmoil, anger, uncertainty and inequality as racial issues took center stage in America.

Our Freeflex Pro System focusses on a new level of performance: Due to reduced stand height the gliding band is much closer to the ski boot and our free-gliding heel allows the ski to flex unimpeded.
This ensures consistent release values, reduced risk of injury and even more power and precision steering your skis.
Freeflex Pro
The reduced stand height corresponds to the FIS regulations. This gave us the opportunity to redesign the heel track, making it 1mm higher and 8mm wider for even more stability and direct power transmission.
Moreover, increased size of the gliding inserts reduces friction and provides even smoother and more consistent release performance in all skiing situations and conditions.
Full Diagonal Toes feature 180° release action from horizontally to vertically.
Maximum safety in backward twisting-fall situations.
Race Diagonal Toes are tuned for racing purposes. Due to higher release force vertically than horizontally, it holds up to the high backward lean forces occuring in racing.
Optimal performance in all skiing situations and conditions.
The Light Diagonal Heel has been redesigned for even better performance.
150° release action provides even more safety. Whether in backwards or forwards twisting falls, the load on knees and ligaments is lowered and the risk of injury is reduced.
CONVENIENCE & PERFORMANCE: Convenience Cleverly designed Diagonal release cam for easy step in. Performance perfectly balanced heel retention in all directions enables high levels of power transmission without unwanted releasing.
SAFETY: Release without any friction significantly reduces strain on ligaments in
forward twisting falls. Perfect release regardless of temperature, boot-wear, icingup, or dirt on the binding.
CONVENIENCE: Self-cleaning design and maintenance-free.
PERFORMANCE: Best results in independent safety testing and awarded with the TÜV high quality mark.
SAFETY: The HEAD 4-Roller Pincer System remains flexible at all times, absorbing short impact peaks on ligaments and automatically recentering the boot. Perfect 180° release action allows up to 30 % higher retention force without compromising on safety.
CONVENIENCE: Easy entry and perfect centering of the boot, no snow- or dirtclogging.
PERFORMANCE: Positive power transmission, perfect power link between boot and binding (30 % better centering accuracy than conventional cams).

Every Drop Matters (2013) addresses the issue of water scarcity exacerbated by climate change in Arab states. This documentary features a number of water governance pilots that the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)'s Regional Bureau for Arab States (RBAS) has been supporting in the Arab region. It presents the experiences of communities from 5 countries (Jordan, Palestine, Lebanon, Egypt, and Tunisia), who talk about the impact of water scarcity on their daily lives and how community-based solutions have changed their lives. The documentary also emphasizes the need to link to policy-making initiatives at the national level with efforts at the regional and global levels.

Rush In Mumbai
As of now, there are 24 International Rush Clubs and each one has made progress under the Rush banner. However, Mumbai Rush seems to be setting the pace. Located in the heart of Mumbai among 21 million habitants, the third largest city in the world, C.E.O. Dennis Fernandez is making an massive impact in the bustling city. He recently started a league creating eight Rush Clubs at the ages U10, U12 and U14. The venues of play are four "centers" where he brokered a deal with the private catholic schools.
"My goal for the league is to expand to the U16 and U18 divisions, then to the girls. He would then like to create a lower division for promotion/relegation purposes." Dennis says, "Mumbai has 10.5 million children between the ages of 5-18. We have the numbers and we have the resources. The potential is unlimited."
Mumbai Rush has an academy, as well. Here, he gathers the best players at St. Andrews, the main center of excellence. The players receive special training, topics are chosen, a curriculum is followed…the much needed club culture is being created.
Dennis is the master mind behind the scenes. He is ambitious, creative and tenacious. Above all, his ethics are impeccable, truly representing the Rush down to the core. "I am working on an exchange program to move the kids of Mumbai to the U.S. for short stays. My aim is to give the players a taste of another culture and perhaps provide an avenue to college or the professional ranks," Dennis continues. "Rush is the perfect fit us. The vision, goals and core values align perfectly with objectives and beliefs."

Burning Question: Is a star's vacation really all that different from ours. They swim and shop just like everyone else, right?
Sweetie, no. No, stars do not vacate like the rest of us. Not even a little bit. Not unless you, too, get access to VIP tunnels and passages at your local airport; fly via private planes; enjoy door-to-door transport from your airport via Escalade; employ assistants who do your packing for you; and routinely field special discounts and upgrades just for being you.
How do I know all this? I asked around on your behalf and got the scoop. The result, this Burning Q&A, co-starring celebrity travel agent Lyndsey Green and Robert Garcia, director of resort sales at the exclusive Mexican resort community Villas Del Mar, which has hosted George Clooney, Robert De Niro, Kate Beckinsale, Ben Stiller, Chris Pine, and other stars.

Another trip to Lake Como, George? (FameFlynet)
Depends on how smart their agents and managers are. Ill-prepared stars can get trapped and papped inside airport security. But better-connected ones know about services such as Airport Assistance Worldwide, which meets clients curbside, whisks them through security and — depending on the airline or gate — escorts them through little-known tunnels or passages to avoid prying eyes.
And, "yes," Green tells me, there are such tunnels and hallways at LAX. Those conspiracy-theorist friends of yours are correct. Other airports have more comprehensive VIP services, such as the personal lounge and limo service at London's Heathrow.
All that said, most stars who arrive at luxe destinations arrive via private plane, Garcia tells me.
Do they do their own packing?
Sometimes, Green tells me. Other times, the assistant does it.
Do they pay the same airfare and hotel rates as the rest of us?
No. Celebrities routinely get perks just for being famous.
"Those discounts might be 20 to 30 percent off," Green tells me. Free amenities might include, early check in, late check out, daily breakfast for two, a $100 food or beverage credit, or sometimes $100 spa credit." As for privately owned rental villas, like the ones at Villas Del Mar, it depends on the homeowner, who helps set the rental rate, Garcia says.

Denise Richards smiles for the paparazzi as usual. (Splash News)
Do stars travel using their real names?
Oftentimes not. "I'd say about 60 percent use a fake name," Garcia tells me.
Beckinsale has employed the less-than-covert name Sigourney Beaver. "It was a spur of the moment thing," she told the Daily Telegraph. "When I was first asked my name it just came out. I guess it was because I admire the American actress Sigourney Weaver." Another reason she likes the name? Becksinsale says her husband, director Len Wiseman, hates it when staff refers to him as Mr. Beaver.
"Friends" star Matthew Perry blew Justin Bieber's cover on "Ellen" by revealing the pop star's pseudonym was, yes, Chandler Bing. (Despite the fact that the show went off the air when the Biebs was 10.)
Will Ferrell keeps it classy. (Splash News)
Johnny Depp has registered under the names Mr. Stench, Mr. Drip Noolde and Mr. Donkey A--. "You'd start your day off with a smile, just to get that wake-up call at 6 in the morning, saying, 'It's time to wake up, Mr. Stench,'" he told "Extra." "And when you hear it in foreign accents as well, it makes it sound even better. Monsieur Stench – and I've also been Monsieur Poopy."
As for Clooney? "I always used to check in under the name 'Arnold Schwarzenegger', which to me is the funniest idea in the world," he told Entertainment Weekly. "Because they know I'm not Arnold Schwarzenegger, and I know I'm not, but they'll go: 'Uh, Mr Schwarzenegger, um, would you like turndown service?' 'Yes, I would!'"
How else do stars protect their privacy?
You're assuming they want privacy. Before one visit, a reality star and her NBA-player husband tried to get the folks at Villas Del Mar to sign non-disclosure agreements, presumably to protect the couples privacy. The couple then proceeded to Tweet their entire vacation.
Then again, other stars really do want privacy, and they get it...often by simply staying put behind multiple gates. At Villas Del Mar, the rental fees cover butler and chef service, a golf cart for transport around the community, plus access to a private beach club. So, no need for stars to venture out among the wee people unless they want to.
Are there special hotels or beaches that only celebrities know about?
This may be one answer that gives you comfort: No. There is no secret handbook of the stars filled with such occult knowledge of secret places.
They do prefer exclusive resorts and exotic locales where they're less likely to run into autograph hounds. Some current favorite destinations include the Maldives, Anguilla, Los Cabos and Nevis. Some will charter a yacht and park it off shore, out of the range of paparazzi long lenses. Hawaii, Europe and Costa Rica are always popular, too.
"Nothing," however, says Green, "that's not available to the public."

Sanchez has a 55 percent completion percentage but yet gets an 83 accuracy
Henne has a 61 percent completion percentage but gets a 79 accuracy
they say this about Sanchez:
Quarterback analysis: Mark Sanchez has an overall score of 82. His awareness came in at 74, but you otherwise won't find numbers that indicate he throws too many interceptions. His throwing accuracy is an 83.
It's cute (and complete BS) that they rated Sanchez over Henne. Even though EVERY indcation last year would have been to the contrary...
Wrong forum.
2015 Goals:

4 (8 ounce)
pork chops
lime, juiced
4 cloves
garlic, minced
1/4 cup
chopped fresh basil
salt and black pepper to taste
FANTASTIC! I just made this for dinner tonight, and wow was it tasty! I like a little extra lime flavor, so I juiced 2 limes instead of one. I mixed the lime juice, garlic, basil, salt, and pepper together all at once, then put them in a ziplock type freezer bag. I trimmed the pork, then added it to the marinade. I let it marinade for about 5-6 hours.
What a tasty dinner! Thank you for posting it!
Basil Garlic Pork Chop Haiku: "Not my favorite. I'd have preferred cilantro, over the basil." I followed the recipe exactly, (marinated for about 4 hrs.) and wasn't blown away by the grilled results. I noticed that several of the reviewers said that they replaced the lime juice w/ lemon, which, maybe it something that I would've liked better. (Either that, or swapping basil for cilantro.) But as the recipe's written, I just didn't feel that the lime jived w/ the basil for my tastebuds.

My daughter and I made these the other night. We added 1/4 C of oil and let them marinate for two days. They were delicious!!!
I can't wait to try this since we grill pork chops a lot. The one thing I can add is that I never grill chops over direct heat. It can make them tough. I always turn on the gas grill and heat it up but when I put the chops on the grill I turn off the burners on the side where I place the meat. Just keep the lid closed and the internal temp will cook the chops without making the meat dry or tough. It will take a bit longer but it's well worth the wait.
Made this recipe for dinner last night and it was really good. I didn't have a lime so I used a lemon and it was still the acidity that was needed. I grilled on gas BBQ and my husband loved it. He doesn't usually like basil but I went for it and he really liked it. Yeah! A new staple for my household. Thank you!
Wow! This was great. Had a lemon, so I used that instead of the lime. Marinated three hours in a ziplock bag. I turned the bag every half an hour or so. My family just kept moaning while they ate! Maybe next time I will use a lime. Maybe I'll try this marinade with chicken breasts.
I had my doubts as I was putting it together but it was DELICIOUS. Thank you for a 5-star keeper.
I marinated overnight and really enjoyed this, although it's difficult to keep the pork from getting a little tough. I wasn't sure about basil with pork, but was pleasantly surprised.

I'm not much of a letter writer. As the sheriff here, I'm used to writing incident reports, not chatty letters. But my daughter, Megan—who'll be making me a grandfather soon—told me I had to do this. So here goes.
I'll tell you straight out that I'd hoped to marry Faith Beckwith (my onetime high school girlfriend) but she ended the relationship last month, even though we're both widowed and available.
Mother-to-be Mary Jo Wyse arrives in Cedar Cove on Christmas Eve, searching for her baby's father. David Rhodes had said he'd be in town. But he isn't. Which leaves Mary Jo stranded, pregnant and alone. And there's no room at the local inn.…

Dear Reader,
I have something to confide in you. I think my husband, Dave, might be having an affair. I found an earring in his pocket, and it's not mine. I'm also worried because some jewelry was recently stolen from an old woman—and Dave used to visit her a lot. You see, he's a pastor. And a good man. I can't believe he's guilty of anything, but why won't he tell me where he's been when he comes home so late?

Time to fight back! Give 'em a taste of the whack-bonk!
Using a foam pool noodle and a wooden dowel it's time to give a little comeuppance to bad drivers. Add insult to injury by inscribing messages on the noddle, then giving the offending vehicle acouppla whacks to let them know they did you wrong.
Enough talk, let's whack-bonk!
*this Instructable is for novelty purposes only.
*not responsible for any injuries suffered from use of this Instructable.
*be safe, and always obey the road rules
Step 1: Tools + materials
I don't know what state you're in, but in California it is specifically legal for motorcyclists to share lanes with cars. By that I mean it's not some unwritten rule, the law goes out of it's way to state that it is permitted.
Also I highly doubt your statistic is true. I encounter bad/unsafe drivers constantly, and by far the majority are on 4 wheels. Also 95% of collisions I see (which is a pretty regular thing in my area) involve cars, and the rest of the time it's freight trucks. Motorcyclists may be irritating, but I would bet my life they are safer drivers. I certainly would be if there was nothing protecting me from getting squashed like a bug.
Sharing a lane with a car is certainly legal in California, but not everywhere else in the US and it is a dangerous practice. Lanes are narrow enough for one vehicle at a time. Riding a motorcycle is an inherently dangerous activity. Bike riders need to be vigilant at all times. Non-motorcycle drivers need to watch out for everything on the road not just bikes. Proportionally, there are probably the same percentage of stupid people driving bikes as there are cars. It just so happens that there are a lot more cars on the road than motorcycles. As long as everyone respects each other and shares the road we will all get where we're going.
The fine difference being, that a stupid motorcyclist will kill themselves, while a stupid car driver can certainly kill a motorcyclist. I don't know of any incidents where a motorcyclist ever killed a driver and walked away.
And it is legal to ride between lanes on a motorcycle in California
Matter-o-fact, I'm thinking of having another sticker made stating: "When I retire I'm moving up north to drive 20mph under the speed limit. I won't mind my own business and then b!tch and moan about how much better life was in Florida....but I'll stay up north anyway so everyone can hear me whine. I'll vote to make the north more like Florida...and then go back to Florida in the winter."
And I'm a proud member of the Ones out of the Fives.
Still mad the south lost I see.
- - On the other hand, magnanimity is more manly than an emotional lack of impulse-control. Read a biography of George Washington, or watch some old episodes of "Kung Fu."
- - One should distinguish the very different tasks of attracting notice for the sake of survival and exacting revenge. The former is prudent, but the latter is self-indulgent, emotional, and primitive, the kind of thing teenage gangs get all worked up about.
- - Our society is already losing civility fast, and contributing to the loss of civility only makes it worse. It can be an affecting gesture to reveal initial anger, but then make a visible transition to magnanimity and forgiveness. Unfortunately, this may often go unnoticed.
By the way i live in a warm climate where riding every day is practical so the miles I put on my many bikes were really extensive.
I will say that many car drivers feel they have some natural right to be stupid or to operate a motor vehicle when they really are no longer qualified.
Death to innocent motorcyclists from car drivers making what they call a "mistake" is all too common. If we ever get real about this issue we will test car drivers on a swoopy race track with numerous corners to see if they can actually drive a car rather than simply go straight down a road like a brain dead sheep on tranquilizers.
If a car opened their door on a motorcyclist, for any reason, they are bound to be in a world of trouble. you may as well be purposely hitting a pedestrian on a crossing!
Only wearing protective gear and now pissed off.
And i can tell you right now there are many more incidents of motor cyclists being endangered by other vehicles than the other way around. Even cars in blind spots people have trouble seeing, so a bike 4x smaller is going to have alot more trouble.
Oh, and if you swerved at a bike to try and put them off the road, aside from being up on serious charges YOU would be the one "escalating a bad situation
The point of this instructable is to be fun / a novelty. The author does not condone hitting another vehicle with anything im sure. But i wouldnt blame him for wanting to in some situations.
If you don't have a Harley, get a muffler thats loud as hell.
People in your neighborhood will be annoyed, but cars around you will know you're there.
I heard somewhere that if you paint eyes on your cycle helmet those magpies in Australia would not attack you. I had a few swoops over me when I was cycling in the outback some years ago.
Then later I heard that if you put picture of eyes over the company cookie jar with the honesty box, the rate of people not paying dropped drastically.
So My theory would be that if you had eyes painted on your riding leather jacket, the car drivers subconsciously behave better? Just a theory.

Today's track comes from Alexander "Skip" Spence, a Canadian musician closely associated with the psychedelic scene of late 1960s San Francisco. Spence got his start as a guitarist in Quicksilver Messenger Service, though he left the group before they put out any recordings. His first credited release is with Jefferson Airplane, drumming on the group's 1966 debut, Takes Off.
After he and manager Matthew Katz were forced out of Jefferson Airplane, Spence came together with drummer Don Stevenson, bassist Bob Mosley, and guitarists Peter Lewis and Jerry Miller to form Moby Grape, with Katz acting as manager of the new band. Moby Grape, which came to be known for the three-guitar assault of Spence, Lewis and Miller, released a self-titled debut in 1967. That year they also played the Monterey Pop festival, though their performance was left out of the famous D.A. Pennebaker film documenting the event (allegedly because Katz demanded $1,000,000 for the rights to the performance).
During the recording of their second album Wow in New York the next year, Spence suffered a psychotic break after taking LSD that led him to be arrested and committed to a mental hospital. As Peter Lewis described it in a 1995 interview:
He tried to chop down the hotel room door with a fire axe to kill Don to save him from himself. He went up to the 52nd floor of the CBS building where they had to wrestle him to the ground. And [producer David] Rubinson pressed charges against him. They took him to the Tombs and that's where he wrote Oar. When he got out of there, he cut that album in Nashville. And that was the end of his career. They shot him full of Thorazine for six months. They just take you out of the game.
As Lewis suggests, Spence recorded Oar immediately following his time in the hospital, where he was diagnosed with schizophrenia. Spence recorded the album, as the sole performer, in Nashville in 1968, and it was released by Columbia in 1969. Rubinson must have forgiven Spence for his axing antics, because he mixed the album. Due to his ongoing mental health problems and struggles with drug addiction, Oar remains Spence's only solo release; he died of lung cancer in 1999. The album today has rightly become a cult classic—this version of "Diana" includes an extended freakout that was cut from the LP version and most subsequent reissues.

Posting will be disabled as of 10pm tonight. Also the URL of the forum will change. It will be in a more logical location (well, for me at least) and I hope it will be the last time the URL changes.
Can't say how long the outage will be for, but expect up to 24 hours...
Sorry about this, the timing is not perfect, but I'll be a lot happier once this has been accomplished.

Ridgway boys basketball used a 17-0 second half run to pull away from the Kane Wolves en route to a 63-43 victory Wednesday night as part of Senior Night.
Kane had kept with the Elkers in the first half and trailed 34-30 entering the third quarter. The Elkers then scored 17 straight points to bulge the lead to 21 past the midpoint of the third quarter.
JOHNSONBURG – The Johnsonburg Ramettes (13-5) were on the wrong end of a 9-0 start Wednesday night before righting the ship in time for a come-from-behind 33-28 win against visiting DuBois Central Catholic (8-10).
The Ramettes used a 10-2 run late in the second quarter to take a 20-17 lead to the locker room. Late game theatrics, however, nearly cost Johnsonburg the game.
JOHNSONBURG – Kane senior Kaila Jamerson wouldn't let the Lady Wolves lose to the Ramettes Monday night.
A series of six straight points by Jamerson would propel the Lady Wolves first into double overtime and then to a lead Kane would not relinquish as the Lady Wolves won 42-37 in double overtime over Johnsonburg Monday night at Johnsonburg Area High School.
Jamerson led all scorers with 15 points for Kane, two points shy of tying Bree Bergman's school record of 1,085 career points.
The Elk County Catholic Lady Crusaders held on for a 38-34 Allegheny Mountain League over the Johnsonburg Ramettes Saturday night at the ECCHS gym.
JOHNSONBURG – The Johnsonburg Rams (15-1) got another big night from junior Cameron Grumley en route to a 60-37 win Friday over visiting Elk County Catholic.
The junior had 21 points on the night while fellow junior Cole Peterson put in 14 points.
A complete effort equaled a complete victory for the Elkers Friday night.
Ridgway took control in the first quarter and would build the lead throughout in a 71-30 victory over AML South foe DuBois Central Catholic Friday night at Ridgway Area High School.
The Bradford Owls outscored the Elk County Catholic Crusaders by a 6-3 margin in overtime Wednesday night to take over sole possession of the District 9 League with a 5-0 record. Bradford won the game 42-39.
The Crusaders led by a 36-34 score with 2:14 left in regulation. Bradford's Tyler Wilber tied the game at 36 with 1:19 left. The Crusaders then held the ball for the last shot but were unable to convert forcing the four minute overtime period.
The weather outside was bitter cold but Ridgway's three-point shooting was anything but against Curwensville.
The Elkers used a barrage of eight three-pointers against the Golden Tide in a 70-31 victory over their AML South counterparts Tuesday night at Ridgway Area High School.
JOHNSONBURG – Junior Cameron Grumley had a career night with 25 points Tuesday night as the Rams (14-1) dominated Sheffield (4-6) in an 82-43 rout.
Grumley, who scored 13 points alone in the first quarter, was joined in double digits by fellow junior Cole Peterson with 14 points, and senior Mitchell Holmberg with 13.
ST. MARYS – St. Marys Area Lady Dutch senior Adair Gennocro became the school's newest 1,000 point scorer on Monday evening as the Lady Dutch picked up a 42-10 victory over the Ridgway Lady Elkers at the SMAHS Dutch Oven. Gennocro entered the game needing just three points to reach the 1,000 mark and achieved that honor near the end of the opening quarter. She was 1-for-2 from the foul line with 2:29 left before the end of the quarter and then sank a field goal to score the final two points with 1:48 remaining.

Latinos are frequently treated differently than whites when renting an apartment, according to a review of portions of the Virginia apartment rental market.
The Equal Rights Center, a national civil rights organization, conducted more than 100 "matched pair" tests at apartment complexes around the state, including in the City of Fairfax.
Matched pair testing uses subjects who are the same in all respects except the one that the study is testing for, in this case ethnicity, said Donald Kahl, executive director of the Equal Rights Center.
For example, a 25-year-old Latina woman would go to a leasing office inquiring about apartments available for rent. Shortly after, a 25-year-old white woman would go to the same office asking about the same apartments. Both subjects would present similar income levels and employment history.
About 55 percent of the time, the Latino subjects experienced what the report describes as "adverse treatment," as compared to their white counterpart.
The rate was even higher in the Northern Virginia tests — about 82 percent of testers in the 33 tests conducted here reported adverse treatment, including all five tests in the city of Fairfax.
"This report certainly identifies that in the commonwealth there remains much to be done to advance fair housing in general and in particular for the Latino community," Kahl said.
In addition to Fairfax, the testing was conducted in Loudoun and Prince William counties locally; areas around Culpeper, Harrisonburg and Charlottesville in northwest Virginia; and in the Richmond and Hampton Roads/Virginia Beach regions.
Events identified as adverse treatment included Latinos being quoted higher rental rates or fees than whites for the same apartments, not being offered the same discounts or specials, being offered later availability dates, being told there were fewer apartments available or being informed of different application requirements, such as a credit check or Social Security card.
Although the study documented differential treatment, it's impossible to draw conclusions about the reasons for the treatment, Kahl said.
"There is a possibility that the individuals representing the properties are not properly trained," he said. "It may be simple error, or it may be something more sinister than that."
The report recommends that housing providers ensure their staff members are trained in fair housing laws and also that they rely on written materials, to ensure that all potential applicants receive the same information.
Another goal of the report is to raise awareness within the Latino immigrant community about fair housing laws, Kahl said.
"Our goal is to highlight that this type of treatment does occur and that it's wrong and that there is something they can do about it," he said.

Lately, I've been a little obsessed with making different kinds of gift boxes. So when I came across these pyramid shaped DIY gift boxes, I knew I had to make some.
These are so simple to make, because Sassafras has generously provided a free printable template.
Print the template onto the inside of an 8.5 by 11 piece of card stock. Cut out the shape and carefully score along the inside lines. (Use the tip of a pair of scissors like a pencil and trace along the lines. Be sure to not cut all the way through the paper). Punch little holes in each triangle. Now fold all of the pieces and use a thin ribbon to tie the pieces together. You don't need to use any glue or tape. The little box holds together perfectly.
These little boxes are easy to open and close, and would be perfect for a little Mother's Day gift like earrings or a necklace. They are easy to reuse and a great thing to have on hand for last minute gifts.

Svindal becomes Lord of the Lake with victory in Super G
Aksel Lund Svindal made it two wins out of two from the World Cup stop in Lake Louise as he won convincingly in the Super G. Svindal, now a four time winner in the Super G in Lake Louise, was in a class of his own and at the last split was over a second ahead of the time set by Adrien Theaux, by the finish it was just under a second but still a very comfortable win. Joachim Puchner edged out Ted Ligety by the closest of margins for the final position on the podium, 0.01seconds.
This was Svindal's 18th World Cup win of his career and the HEAD World Cup rebel described his run afterwards as "Sometimes you are just flying down the hill. Skiing is always fun and on days like this it is unreal!" He added, "If things go well, then you have to enjoy it. This is not natural. I was quick in training, luckily I was also in the race," the two-time overall World Cup winner said after his double victory.
The conditions, albeit cold, were great and this allowed Ted Ligety to take full advantage of an early start to post a super quick time. Ligety remained in the lead until Puchner denied him. With Theaux then grabbing the lead from Puchner, it was left to Svindal to demonstrate just how fast he is in the early season races.
With many of the racers having trained on the hill through the downhill training runs, Ligety had not. Ligety had flown in the night before the race yet felt his run "was definitely better than I thought it would be. I skied really well at the top. The bottom half I just really wasn't looking out for those rolls and was getting thrown all over the place. If the race had ended a little higher I might have done better." This was Ligety's second best career result in Super G on the World Cup.
Many of the racers had watched Svindal's run from the previous day to try and work out how he was so quick. Svindal himself watched the Super G from last year, where he had also won, to learn how to go faster on the hill.
This result lifts Svindal above Ligety as the two take the top two spots in the early race for the Overall Globe. Matthias Mayer made it three HEAD World Cup Rebels in the top six with sixth place to equal his best World Cup result.
1. Aksel Lund Svindal (NOR) HEAD
2. Adrien Theaux (FRA)
3. Joachim Puchner (AUT)
4. Ted Ligety (USA) HEAD
6. Matthias Mayer (AUT) HEAD
13. Johan Clarey (FRA) HEAD
16. Georg Streitberger (AUT) HEAD

28. Dustin Cook (CAN) HEAD

Marlin Stutzman's focus shifted from shutdown to lockdown and back again in less than an hour Thursday afternoon, and although it's uncertain whether there was a connection, he admits the country is as upset by what's happening in Washington as he is.
"The public is very frustrated with Washington and the way it operates, with all the finger-pointing," said Stutzman, R-3rd, who received national attention after telling a reporter Wednesday that Republicans were "not going to be disrespected (in the stalemate over the budget and Obamacare that has resulted in a partial shutdown of the federal government). We have to get something out of this. And I don't even know what that means."
The resulting firestorm caused Stutzman to issue a statement Thursday acknowledging that he had "carelessly misrepresented the ongoing budget debate . . . Despite my remarks it's clear the American people want both parties to come to the table to reopen government, tackle the debt crisis and stop Obamacare's pain."
But the partisan wrangling stopped for about 45 minutes Thursday when a woman with a young child in the car – for reasons still unknown – attempted to drive through a White House gate then led security agents on a chase to the Capitol, where she was shot and killed by police.
"I was in my office and heard shots, very rapid, like firecrackers, and I knew something was wrong," said Stutzman, who went onto the balcony near his office and saw helicopters overhead during the incident. "Then they sounded the alarm for the lockdown."
"I was scared at first. Nobody knew whether others might be involved or whether it was an isolated incident," Stutzman said. "(The woman) was disturbed about something."
Stutzman, meanwhile, is perturbed over what he sees as an unreasonable refusal to compromise among congressional Democrats. The GOP-led House of Representatives has passed several bills that would fund government at current levels, but President Obama and the Democrat-controlled Senate have refused even to negotiate, he said.
The Republicans bills at first sought to defund the "Affordable Care Act" and later tried to delay all or part of it, but Stutzman said GOP-sought delays are simply consistent with the delays already granted by administration concerning certain aspects of the legislation.
Thursday, the House passed a bill supported by Stutzman that would provide continued funding for the National Guard, including the 122nd Fighter Wing in Fort Wayne, some members of which have been furloughed because of the shutdown. The bills still requires approval by the Senate and president.
Although some analysts say Republicans might have been political wiser simply to let Obamacare take effect, thereby avoiding any blame for a shutdown, Stutzman said the bill's potential harm is simply too great to accept.
"It's producing a part-time economy, and premiums are going up. If (Republicans) work for the right policy, it will be the right politics," he said.
Stutzman said his controversial statement wasn't about the search for political gain but about the need for both parties to sit down, talk and to "make it a win for both sides. We have to get spending under control, but Obamacare will increase spending dramatically."
And although Stutzman sees little evidence of compromise right now, he said events may force it.
"Around Oct. 17, we'll hit the debt ceiling. That will force a solution," he said.
