Core Values
Who Plays Rugby?
Everyone! Let's go over a list of athletes and see how they can fit in playing rugby:
Are you a football player? Then you are hungry for a score and you are already hard-wired for impact. Hopefully, you will already have a team mentality and recognize the importance of player positioning. The transition to rugby should be natural, as long as you understand that you are no longer protected by equipment and that you must make some adjustments to the way you tackle. You must also get used to the fact that play does not stop just because someone gets tackled or the ball goes out.
Are you a wrestler? Then you know that in order to win, you must be aggressive and score early. The ability for a team to set the pace of match often ensures them the desirable outcome. The proximity of opposing players and the limitations of gravity ensure that this sport will come naturally to you. Tackling and rucking are all about recognizing your position and playing your strengths.
Are you a soccer or basketball player? Then you know what it is like to sprint back and forth between the goals playing both defense and offense. You may not have experience with the physical contact that is apparent in rugby, but you are already light years ahead of most other new players because you are always focused on the position of the ball and where you need to be to make the next play. Learning to tackle is much less intimidating once you realize that none of the players are protected by equipment and that players are trained in safer tackling techniques.
Are you a swimmer, or in track and field? Then your stamina and endurance will make you instantly successful on a rugby pitch (aka rugby field). Knowledge of the game is important, but after 80 minutes of hard physical activity, your ability to keep going will often lead to multiple scoring opportunities as other players get winded.
Are you a baseball or tennis player? Then your hand-eye coordination is key to your success. You will have more to learn than other new players that already have experience with physical contact. But if a more physical game is what you are looking for, rugby might be what you are missing.
Never played a sport before? It doesn't matter. Rugby might be a perfect start. And rugby has much more to offer than 80 minutes in the game. Rugby will take every bit of energy out of you in under 80 minutes, but it can also give you a lifetime of enjoyment and many lifelong friends to share it with. Rugby players leave it all on the pitch; but when it's all said and done, they get so much more in return in the way of friendship, camaraderie, and personal satisfaction!
Everyone regardless of physical prowess or athletic achievement is invited to learn and play rugby!

Yesterday, AMD released the Radeon R9 290X video card at $549 that was able to outperform the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 in the majority of benchmarks that we ran. We tested at 1920x1080, 2560x1600 and 5760x1080 resolutions over six game titles and two synthetic benchmarks, but our testing didn't feel complete. Many gamers are starting to wonder about 4K gaming, so we got our hands on the Sharp PN-K321 32" 4K Ultra HD Monitor to bring you some 4K testing. We know that not many people are gaming at 4K and have talked about that before on the site, but we wanted to jump aboard the 4K bandwagon before it becomes popular and the norm. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan is likely the first choice for NVIDIA fans to do some 4K testing. We were going to use that card at first, but other sites have already done that comparison and at over $1,000, it doesn't really match up well on the price front. We opted to go with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780! Read on to see how the GeForce GTX 780 and Radeon R9 290X do when it comes to 4K gaming!

Re: AMD Radeon R9 290X vs NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 at 4K Ultra
It seems the amount bof RAM is the bottleneck, when gaming on 4K monitors and you need 6GB or at least 5GB of RAM on a single card on 4K monitors. Nvidia should not skimp on RAM, when selling such an expensive card. I guess 6GB versions will come out as 4K gaming will get more popular (and cheaper). I'm really curious how 4K + Nvidia G-sync technology will pair-up and work in life! This is probably the way to do it right.

The launch for Sony's animated avian tale performed in line with forecasts as did the third weekend of Disney-Marvel's "Captain America" with $33.1 million at 4,266 sites for a 54 percent decline. Universal's "Neighbors 2" finished in third with a solid $21.8 million at 3,384 screens -- although the sequel was off 55 percent from the 2014 launch of the original "Neighbors." Warner Bros.' opening of action-comedy "The Nice Guys" reeled in a moderate $11.3 million at 2,865 screens, or about half the "Neighbors 2" number as both battled for the attention of comedy fans.04/12/16 02:30 PMUniversal Corp. – Value Analysis (NYSE:UVV) : April 12, 2016 - 02/17/16 09:25 PMUniversal Corp. – Value Analysis (NYSE:UVV) : February 18, 2016 - Social About Universal Corp.

Herbie Hancock
Herbert Jeffrey Hancock, 12 April 1940, Chicago, Illinois, USA. Growing up in a musical household, Hancock studied piano from the age of seven and gave his first public performance just two years later. Although he played classical music at his debut Hancocks interest lay mostly in jazz. During high school and college he played in semi-professional bands and on occasion accompanied visiting jazzmen, including Donald Byrd. It was with Byrd that Hancock first played in New York, in 1961, recording with him and as leader of his own small group. Among the tunes on Hancocks debut for the Blue Note Records label was Watermelon Man, an original composition that appealed to more than the usual jazz audience. A version of the song, by Mongo Santamaría, reached the US Top 10 in 1963.
During the early and mid-60s Hancock led bands for club engagements and record sessions, completing the influential albums Empyrean Isles...

The "Hillside Strangler" became an everyday headline that frightened Los Angeles for a year or so in the late 1970's. During that year, bodies of young women started showing up on the hillsides around the city. But the horror waned beside the revelations that came to light in what became the longest criminal trial in American history--BEFORE O. J. Simpson's 1994 trial--and one of the most controversial
The Hillside Strangler was thought to be one person with a real fast pace in killing. With TWO OF A KIND, Darcy O'Brien gives the inside story and is the first book to make the shocking disclosure that "the Hillside Strangler" was not one man, but two, and not only that -- they were were cousins!
In Mr. O'Brien's riveting story examines the relationship between the murderers and the drive behind their hideously evil crimes. It tells the entire story of the Hillside Stranglers as it has never been told before. He begins with the stranglers themselves who just decided one night out of bordom that they hated women and wanted to kill them (even as one strangler was living with a pregnant girlfriend and hiding the truth of his killing spree from her).
It reveals the torture, the prostitution ring, the killings. But it also shows the other side of the drama--the law. The police were so baffled by the disappearing women and then the subsequent finding them on a hillside dead, that they took drastic measures to ensure justice would prevail in this case.
TWO OF A KIND is a true story of crime and punishment here and now. But even more disturbing, it is a tale of primal evil rising from the darkest human depths and our age-old struggle to defend ourselves from it.
A young, charismatic man, under an almost hypnotic spell of a truly evil older uncle takes center stage in the longest criminal trial in this country. The defense of "multiple personalities" was as much on trial as the guilt or innocence of the defendants.
I liked this book very much because the characters--victims, murders, investigators, lawyers and judge--became real people as I read. The trial was especially intriguing as the prosecutor, defense attorney and judge laid the groundwork for a strange and new defense. This book would certainly not be a disappointment.
Angelo Buono had his way with women, but his anger toward his mother and failed relationships caused something to crack inside him. While he was violent and neglectful of women, it was not until he formed an unholy alliance with his cousin Kenneth Bianchi that he began to kill women. The duo killed ten women who were mostly prostitutes through the means suggested in the book's title. However, the murder of two school girls certainly raised my ire toward them. Although the duo was under suspicion, it was not until the pair "broke up" that the heat rose. Bianchi killed two women on his own to satiate his lust, but was not nearly as efficient without his cousin.
The one aspect of the book I disliked was that there seemed to be more focus on the detectives than the criminals. This was a small flaw in the grand scale. The book was well written and tough to put down. Even knowing the results of the trial, the writing managed to keep me on the edge of my seat wondering what might happen next. I even doubted the possibility of conviction for a moment. Although it is often verbose and quite lengthy at times, I would recommend this work of true crime.

Reviewed: 17 July 2016 by Curious Sub, a Bisexual Going Steady Male
As always Lovehoney delivered discreetly and on time. This is a really high quality product which I have regularly used for over a year.
It's the perfect size to provide a nice challenge for beginners to butt play or a good toy for more advanced users to start a session with, without much prep.
- Pros
- Comfortable, high quality material, perfect size.
- Cons
- No complaints.
- Bottom line
- 10/10. If you're interested in anal then it's a must buy.

This implement is great. I got it it through the two for one for £14.99 with the large version.
It is a joy to use and wear for long time use. It is so smooth and flexible.
I have other plugs but this beats them all. I love the reach and flexibility of it.
If there is a better plug out there I have yet to see it. Superlative.
If you're reading this it means you're interested in this item. Do not hesitate buy it now.
By the way, can't get the large one in yet!

First time anal play
Reviewed: 03 July 2016 by kennyc, a Straight Engaged Male
Bought all 3 sizes S / M / L as my GF really wanted to try anal sex and we didn't know what to start with.
For her, the small version gave only slightly more stimulation than having a finger inserted so we don't use the small one much. The large version is very big and she cannot take it, it starts getting painful for her when trying to insert it.
This medium one is perfect for us. When used with the Lovehoney anal lube she can take it without any pain and really gets off on it. It stretches her bum very gently and has not only made anal sex possible for us it gives her fantastic orgasms when just using the plug. The material is very easy to keep clean and doesn't have any strange smell to it.
- Pros
- Price, texture, great shape, ease of cleaning.
- Cons
- Black colour does looks a bit daunting.
- Bottom line
- Perfect for first time anal lovers.

After speculation of such, Tesla recently introduced home batteries as part of its Tesla Energy division. These Powerwall (residential) and Powerpack (industrial) batteries, as they're called, are Tesla's way of ushering in a new future of sustainable energy, and they provide an enticing opportunity for those who may have otherwise been hesitating about switching to solar energy. During the Tesla earnings call today, company CEO Elon Musk touched on the topic of batteries, saying that the company has "basically sold out" the product all the way through the middle of next year.

Although this book came highly recommended it was not at all what I expected. I was looking for a book of games that I could use in the training of a new team, and one that would heelp facilitate team building. Games and Activities may be part of the title, but clearly these activities were not meant for game-type use. Each of the 38 activities involved discussion, and many had handouts that required participants to write their toughts down. I good resource if this is what you are looking for, but not if you want a book of games to help in new team development.

Captain Fantastic. Contrary to what you might assume if you know me AT ALL, this is not a superhero movie. Nor is it fun for the whole family - it's rated R.
What it does have is drama, theories about child-raising & society that are incredibly thought provoking and Viggo Mortensen.
|Photo courtesy of Bleecker Street Media
Captain Fantastic is a story about Ben Cash, a sudden widower of six children (Mortensen) who has been raising them out in the woods, teaching them to live off the land. But they are far from primitive. He and his late wife's homeschooling efforts have produced children who are knowledgeable, mature and thoughtful.
The drama is set into action when the father is told by his late wife's parents that he need not show up for the funeral and subsequent burial - both of which are against her wishes as stated in her will.
Cash brings his brood out of their forest Utopia. His whole way of life is challenged by the outside world and he is brought to consider how his idea of parenting has affected his children - and what it could mean for their future.
|Photo courtesy of Bleecker Street Media
What I appreciated about this movie is that overall it didn't push one clear agenda. While Mortensen's character appears to be a hero, the course of the movie reveals that he has plenty of flaws and he might not always be right in his theories. While many of his choices were commendable, not every parent hits it out of the park every time. Likewise, more traditional child-rearing was called into question and its potential pitfalls were brought to light.
This movie prompted some great discussion between my husband and me, mainly about the way we have chosen to raise our children. There were aspects of Ben Cash's parenting that we both cringed over and applauded.
The only serious flaw I saw was in one set of characters. The characters of Ben's sister Harper, her husband and their 2 kids were there to represent stereotypical white middle class bias to Ben's lifestyle choices. The depiction of the hysterical aunt insisting that her way of life was best for the children and the teenage boys who are sullen, stupid and addicted to their phones was a bit over the top. We are a white, middle class suburban family but I saw very little of us reflected in Harper's family.
|Photo courtesy of Bleecker Street Media
Is it okay for kids at all? Here's my spin as a mom. I would consider taking my 13 and 14 year old sons to this movie. The reason for the R rating includes language (repeated use of the F-bomb), nudity (one scene of Mortensen, full frontal in a non-sexual manner), and adult situations (how the mom died, explaining sexual intercourse to a young child, et cetera.).
Since my teens are acquainted with the language (I'm not admitting to anything) and are boys, the first two cautions are not that big of a deal to me. As far as the last caution goes, you have to judge your own child's maturity level. Many of the situations in the movie are things I've already discussed with my older children, so I think they would be okay. I also think it would produce some great discussion about how other people live and which aspects my kids would like or not like to experience.
If you're at all in doubt, go see it for yourself first. I might wait for a DVD release so I can pause it while watching it with my kids to discuss different things. Because I'm annoying like that.
I guarantee you this film will be noted and included in nominations once award season swings around again. Not only does Mortensen give a passionately sincere performance, George McKay as the eldest brother is perfect in his role as a teenage boy who knows everything yet realizes he knows absolutely nothing. Hit this one up for a date night movie - then be sure to pay the babysitter a little extra so you can go somewhere afterwards to discuss. In theaters now.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment
On Demand
One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

I need to search through a directory which contains many sub directories, each which contain files. The files read as follows question1234_01, where 1234 are random digits and the suffix _01 is the number of messages that contain the prefix, meaning they are apart of the same continuing thread.
find . -name 'quest*' | cut -d_ -f1 | awk '{print $1}' | uniq -c | sort -n
example output:
1 quest1234
10 quest1523
This searches for all the files then sorts them in order.
What I want to do is print all the files which end up having the most occurrences, in my example the one with 10 matches.

I checked out of The Sofitel Agadir Thalassa this morning for Riad Villa Blanche (see separate review). I initially booked for three nights at the Sofitel through Prestiga (disappointed with quality of their service and won't be using their services again) but modified my stay to a night. My check in process was not as described by other reviews, I was not offered tea nor sweet treats but I am sure I would get over it! In the course of the check in process I found that my daily room rate had been hiked up to reflect the changes to my booking and this was communicated to me whilst checking in and five hours later via email from Prestiga (I was not impressed).
My bag arrived in the room about an hour after my check in process was completed and this was triggered by a prompting from me. I requested for a carrier bag after an hour of waiting I contacted the Guest Service who directed me to the front desk for further assistance. They were prompt to act on my request.
The room was nice, the flooring had residual dirt from cleaning, the view from the room was brilliant - pool side and sea view. There was a free mini bar in the room and the toiletries were lovely. I was in room 207 and the wall in the room had water stain permeating through the walls from the bathroom.
The ambience and decor of the internal/external hotel were superb. The bed was comfortable.
Despite having a do not disturb sign I was disturbed three times during the course of he day.
The check out process was poor when I challenged my final bill I was made to wait for 20 mins to get my final bill before checking out. I was definitely unimpressed.
For business travelers this is not an ideal hotel, it more a resort for pleasure not work.
Overall I found the hotel impersonal and thoroughly lack the personal touch. However, if you intention is to be left alone to relax you can achieve this here.

The repetitive loops, the water stop navigation, the turns through the University of Southern California, the elation of the finish. I ran it all in my mind—never having taken a step on the streets. On race day, my mind was as prepared to handle the grueling 26.2 miles as my legs. Visualization is more » Read more
Feeling Like a Fraud: Imposter Syndrome and Running
Yesterday, on my way out of the gym, I held the door for another woman who was also on her way out. "Thank you!" she said, "And by the way, you run REALLY fast!" I didn't know how to respond so I nervously laughed and said, "Oh! Thanks, but–" She interrupted, "I saw you run 7.5 on the treadmill and I think I would blackout if I ran that fast!" more » Read more
Mile Training: Spend Time on Speed
Speed-work: we do it to train for every race distance. It's our chance to practice running at our target race pace, taking on the challenge in small pieces before stringing it together into a race on our big day. I thought I had plenty of experience with hard speed workouts training for the 5K and the10K, but I was completely unprepared for mile race speed-work. For mile training, speed work more » Read more
On Making Comparisons: Your Mileage May Vary
This week, I posted my first training log with a little bit of hesitation. You might look at my training and think it's a lot. But sadly, I look at it and think it doesn't compare to what my peers are doing. It's the Internet's fault. I'll be scrolling through other runners' Twitter, Instagram, or blogs and suddenly come across posts/photos/workouts that make me feel really bad about myself. How can more » Read more
The Mindful Competitive Runner
The mindfulness movement has been around for ages, but it's only recently that it's made its way into the mainstream. Mindfulness is defined as intentional awareness, or intentionally paying attention to the environment around you. It involves observing your environment through the five senses and more importantly, not judging the thoughts and feelings as good or bad as they occur. Instead of reacting to a thought or feeling, we learn through mindfulness to more » Read more
Are You Sabotaging Yourself with Race Day Woes?
I recently found myself standing on the starting line of the 44th annual Portland Marathon. Along the journey to that moment, I did all the right things. I signed up with a coach and followed her workouts to a tee. I pushed myself to hit paces in my workouts that I used to think were unreachable. I believed I was capable of running a 3:25 marathon, which would be a ten minute PR. more » Read more
Why The Pros Are Pros and How YOU Can Learn to Think Like One
Professional athletes have to handle immense amounts of pressure and stress. In fact, at the most recent Track and Field World Championships in Beijing, many American athletes with high expectations didn't fair as well as they had originally planned. In particular, Molly Huddle had arguably the biggest heartbreak in the 10,000 meters after she failed to run through the finish line thus allowing fellow American Emily Infeld to nab the more » Read more
Every Runner Needs to Find Her Inner Monster
Like most little kids, I was afraid of monsters. The Wicked Witch of the West would give me nightmares for days. And don't get me started on those flying monkeys! I made the mistake of believing my brother when he told me Chuckie was just an ugly looking doll and what bad things could a doll do? I'll let you cringe at that one for a second…. But, I've learned, more » Read more
How to Train for Badwater: Extra Everything
It's been no surprise to me that people are curious about Badwater – and even more curious about how one even begins to train for it. There's certainly not the wealth of "couch to Badwater" training programs that there are for the 5K, 10K, and half marathon distances; even my non-runner friends who are able to get their heads around 100-milers have been stymied anew by this latest adventure of mine.

Fake It Until You Make It
Together, we've taken a big leap: we've resolved to dream big and to stop being embarrassed about it. Yeah! But that is just a first step to realizing our big goals. Ladies (and you 2 gentlemen readers), we have more work to do to become the runners we dream of becoming. Today I'm going to put on my self-help guru hat and discuss how the power of positive thinking can more » Read more
Hypnosis and Running: Are You In?
When you hear the word "hypnosis," what's the first thing that comes to mind? Is it an image of being on stage before thousands doing the chicken dance in your underwear? Is it an image of an old man with white hair dangling a pocket watch in front of you and droning, "you are getting sleepy, very, very sleepy…" While clichés of hypnosis may make it seem like a silly party trick, it is actually more » Read more
Find Success In the Chase: Learning From Mistakes in Marathon Training
61 baby! That's was magic number for Pittsburgh. On May 3rd, I pinned on the first elite bib of my life: F61. It was a race that didn't come together. In fact, I didn't even end up finishing. But this article isn't about that race; I already wrote about that. Often, I'm realizing, the best part of running isn't necessarily achieving a goal time in a race, although that is pretty more » Read more
Readers' Roundtable: Are You Competitive? If not, why not?
I had to delete Words With Friends from my phone. My competitive nature didn't allow me to go easy on anyone who wasn't as formidable as I, and when I did find worthy opponents I would…well to put it mildly, I'd get shouty when I wasn't winning. It's pretty rare that a mid-30's mid-packer like me will be vying for even the most humble award, so I don't generally consider more » Read more

We propose a novel method to apply Teichmüller space theory to study the signature of a family of nonintersecting closed 3D curves on a general genus zero closed surface. Our algorithm provides an efficient method to encode both global surface and local contour shape information. The signature—Teichmüller shape descriptor—is computed by surface Ricci flow method, which is equivalent to solving an elliptic partial differential equation on surfaces and is numerically stable. We propose to apply the new signature to analyze abnormalities in brain cortical morphometry. Experimental results with 3D MRI data from Alzheimer's disease neuroimaging initiative (ADNI) dataset [152 healthy control subjects versus 169 Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients] demonstrate the effectiveness of our method and illustrate its potential as a novel surface-based cortical morphometry measurement in AD research.
