Snowboarding Forum - Snowboard Enthusiast Forums (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/forum.php)

- - Are these dynamic turns?!!? (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/tips-tricks-snowboard-coaching/44117-these-dynamic-turns.html)
Are these dynamic turns?!!?
This weekend was the first time I could get out for the season(Dam you mother nature). Here is a short clip of me trying to turn dynamically. This video is from the end of the second day. I think I was a little tired so I started straightening my front leg.
Few questions:
1) Early in the weekend when I had more strength I felt like my turns were a lot better. When i was making my turns i could feel the board pulling away from me. Should I be feeling this? Is this feeling the board grabbing the edge and initiating the turn?
2) I was also focusing on keeping my knees bent when the board was under me. I would then push out on my edges. At times it felt like I was trying to stand up, and i would lose my balance. Should i be feeling this?
3) I tend to lean back a little. I was trying to focus on leaning forward this weekend. I figured if i i focused on bending my knees at the same angle i would accomplish this. How do i know if I'm leaning to far forward?
Sorry for the wall of text. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!
the link to the video.... dynanic turns?!? - YouTube
Because of the relatively mild slope and the low speed, it is hard to get very "dynamic" on your turns in those conditions. You are linking your turns pretty smoothly (I find a lot of people hang on to a edge too long and "over-turn" and skid out the end of their turn)... so it's good that you are transitioning from toeside edge to flatboard to heelside edge to flatboard to toeside edge etc in a nice smooth rhythm. You are also kind of "kicking" the board out which on hard/icy slopes will cause the tail of board to slip/skid out (causing you to lose your balance).
1. Sort of? I've never thought of it quite as "pulling away" from me... but when I do a cross-under turn... the board definitely hooks and "swizzles" under me... not sure if that makes any sense
2. You shouldn't be losing your balance... but for what I consider to be dynamic turns... there is a sense of compression early in the turn initiation... and then pushing out on the edge in the middle of the carve.
3. So yes, you don't want to lean back (with straight legs)... but you also don't want to bend at the back too much (with straight legs) which I what I think you are doing. Maybe what you want to be doing is putting more weight onto your front foot. That's more leaning towards the nose of your board (versus bowing forward).
Here is a video of me trying to film myself riding with a regular camera (it is surprisingly hard to point a non-fisheye camera at yourself while snowboarding). I make no claims at all to having superior form as I tend to bend over too much on my toeside turns as well, but I think you can see my legs "compressing" at the start of a turn (especially the first turn) and then pushing out... as well as "trying" to keep my body upright and angled with the slope (I need to work on it).
I hope this helps...
The end of the video (around 1:10) has photos of the trail that I took from the chairlift the same day you can see my carved track pretty distinctly from all the other ones (some people were skeptical that I was carving my turns). If you are going to hate on my video/technique that's fine... I just request you post a video of your riding as well as a response.
I think OP's main issue is that the hill just isn't steep enough to gain the momentum needed to work the board. try exactly what you were doing on a steeper slope and you will get it no problem.
You are accentuating the quickness of the turns by swingin your back end around and skiding then locking in the turn. on a steeper slope the board will do all the snapping for you all you have to decide is when to transition.
The key here is to suck up your knees in the transition then push out as you compress through the turn. not full extended, just when as you lock in and feel the lateral force push to about 25% bent then suck back in to 50-75% as you make the transition. your upper body stays pretty much the same height off the snow through the whole thing.
Im not an expert either im just describing what it feels like when im riding.
2nd dude has it down pretty good i think.
@Lonerider: I really can't fathom why anyone would think you aren't carving in that video even without the evidence of the line at the end... You can very visibly see that you are completely on edge transitioning to the other without skidding out.
YouTube comments I'm guessing?
To be fair, I'm sure his form is much better when he isn't using a regular point and shoot camera. He mentioned that he had to consciously maintain the camera's angle because it wasn't a sports cam like a GoPro with a wide angle lens.
Yea, I definitely noticed I was not extending my legs out as much as I think I could have, especially on the toeside where sometimes I'm basically completely "compressed" I think I was worried that I'll over-pressure pressure the edge and/dig my toes into the snow (boot drag is my nemesis... the end of the video where I slid out on my heeledge is my boot heel/binding dragging into the snow). That why I am more conservative in boot overhang discussions.
I do try to the do the fore-aft movement to hang onto the carve... for me it feels like I shift my weight forward to initiate the edge just in front of my front binding (i.e. the front contact point) and during the carve, my weight shifts down the edge until I reach the part just past my back binding.
Thanks for the tips, but I think we should keep the focus on the OP!
I think when I was kicking my back foot out I was trying to bleed more speed off. I didn't want to get to far ahead of my camera man. I also think I tend to kick my back foot out when I'm tired. To correct this should I apply more pressure with my uphill foot. So if I'm doing a toe side turn I'll push my uphill heel down and push my down hill toe into the snow? Also, if my memory is correct from previous posts I've read I only apply this pressure early in the turn?
Do I throw my knees forward and throw my butt down with both dynamic skidded turns and dynamic carved turns. Is the only difference between the two turns my transition and what I do with my ankles?

2012 FrankenBeetle.... My thread
Seems like VW can't make many of the diesels. They've been out for 6 weeks and none within 400 miles.
Every dealer I spoke to said they were held up in port, while a few were being trickled in to preorders. My local dealer didn't even know that prices were released which left me less than interested in working with them. I actually found mine online...a dealer in philadelphia had a silver one...told em I was interested in black and they looked and found one in NJ. Kicked em a grand to get it in..hold it...and got on a plane saturday to get it. Very nice ride all the way home to michigan. Black with black interior...sunroof...didnt want to blow 2g on a nav. Still working on pics tho.
Congrats will have to check back to see the photo's.
We need pictures. The dealers in my area who haven't even seen a TDI claim they are not even out. Of course I know they are full of it and they have been trickling out for a month or so but pictures help educate the ignorant.
A search for 2013 Beetle TDIs on Autotrader shows over 300 available.
The color/options I want shows about 5 in the SouthEast US.
Too bad my dealer doesn't seem too anxious to get me one.
I was told north america might get tdi bugs in 2014. Lol. One dealer says on order doesnt know when. Another said october which seems accurate for canada.
What still not photos.
No offense, but what's the big disappointment about no pics?
It either looks like a 2.5 with a TDI badge on it or a Turbo with a TDI badge on it. Shouldn't be radically different from those two models and/or the pictures you can find on the internet.
Just photoshop a TDI badge on a pic of yours and you're 95% there. (minus, of course, the engine and exhaust)
Not the point, we love to see our fellow beetle brother's ride, so hopefully he will post one, after all it just like don't tell the kids you are going to take them to the zoo unless you mean it.
BUMP! sorry all for the delay. Been super busy and am just now able to get pics posted. With all the mobile technology...theres no real easy way to share pics with forums...so had to actually sit down to the laptop.
Overall I have to say this is an amazing car. There's noticeably more room inside than my girlfriends golf and it feels so fun to drive. Gas mileage I find is dependent on how much you do the speed limit. Which is probably the same with all cars. It tends to float on a combined of 46 (hit that after the above pic was taken)...which to me makes it way worth the increase over my previous Saab 9-3 that was getting 31. I will say only buy this if you are a commuter. Yes you still get decent mileage in citys, but this thing excels in highway driving. Enjoy and let me know if anyone has any questions!
I will say this about autotrader that a dealer told me. Once VW has assigned a car to the dealer, regardless of where it is or who its promised to it still shows up on AT. So most dealers i contacted originally were being held up in port and generally didn't know when it was coming. In some cases though I think the dealers seriously don't know anything about their own products (not knowing pricing has been out for months).
Nice car, black always looks the best when it is clean and shiny, and great shots of the gauges.
Just a word of caution, you were getting pretty close to the concrete parking stop, a situation we all have to be aware of.
I am assuming that the 6 in the lower right side of the speedo is the gear you are in.
The gti's with dsg in drive don't show the gear unless you are shifting the dsg.
Now to show my ignorance is the TDI turbo charged?, didn't see a reading on the turbo gauge, i guess manual always shows the gear in the speedo.
Again very nice car, thanks for posting the various pictures.
Yep! Def turbo charged. The far right gauge on top of the dash is the turbo gauge.
Also the gear shows on the sticks and will actually suggest when you should up our down shift.

Thanks, technology!!!!!!!
What model head unit is that?
Is that the newer RNS 300 series?
EDIT/UPDATE: Nevermind. I see that it's the Premium VIII version. No NAV.

Very nice set up! Enjoy your new ride. Digging those wheels!
Well my gauges don't look like that. I like your gauge set up. We congrats and hope to have fun with her. They change a couple things on it like that is a different style TDI badge.

The records may include each ex-serviceman's name, age, birthplace and service history, physical appearance, conduct sheet, previous occupation, and in some cases, the reason for discharge. After 1883, details of marriages and children may also appear.
For best results, limit your search to books only: From the Google home page, click the more link in the top frame, then select Books.
Type a surname plus subject:genealogy in the search box to look for published family histories. Not that your results will also include books authored by people with that surname, even if that family isn't the primary focus. By searching for genealogy as the subject, you'll avoid lots of hits on books where the word genealogy just happens to appear in the text.
Search by county and local history books by typing the state, county or city name (use quotation marks around an exact phrase) and the word history in the search box. For example: ohio "wood county" history.
On the results page, look at the end of each listing for Full View, Limited Preview, Snippet View or No Preview Available. This tells you how much of the actual book you'll get to see.
If the book is too big or takes too long to download, an alternative is to save it to a personal Google library you create. You have sign up for a free Google account to use this feature.
For books with limited or no viewable pages, use the Find This Book in a Library link to go to WorldCat, where you can enter your ZIP code to locate it in a library near you or where you can get it on interlibrary loan.
It was seriously awesome to meet so many Family Tree Magazine readers (especially the one who said her favorite part of the mag is "Preserving Memories").
Although I spent most of the weekend helping out at our exhibitor table (see below), I also got to attend a few of the sessions. I sat in on "Pig Blood in the Snow: Court Records Can Solve Problems" mostly because of the name—but also because our upcoming September issue includes an article on court records. I also really enjoyed Jeffrey Alan Bockman's "Using Maps in Genealogical Research." I now know better than to believe Grandma's story about having to walk 4 miles to school each way.
Kenny Burck, first vice president of OGS and German research aficionado, was certainly the most decorated genealogist I met last weekend.
All his various badges, medals and pins denote memberships and lineages. (This would be a great picture to try out photo tagging on!) Can anyone top Kenny?
Later, I struck up a conversation with Hans-Friedrich Coordes, who was at the conference representing the KfTN, which tracks down relatives and ancestors in Europe. (I'm a fluent German speaker and like to practice every chance I get!) He was in Cincinnati only for the weekend, but he made an incredible genealogical discovery in the little time he had. Another exhibitor told him she had ancestors with his surname—from the same town in Ostfriesland Hans-Friedrich is from, even. After comparing some names, they determined they were not-so-distant cousins. He was blown away.
Earlier in Family Tree Firsts:
Part One
Part Two
Part ThreePart Four
We're hearing about 600 genealogists have gathered here in Cincinnati for the Ohio Genealogical Society annual conference, yesterday and today at the Sharonville Sheraton hotel.
Genealogical societies from Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky are here, as well as book vendors and exhibitors including RootsMagic, WorldVitalRecords and the Godfrey Memorial Library. Thursday night, the revamped genealogy department of the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County stayed open late for night-owl researchers.
One first-time conference attendee just told me he couldn't wait to get home—after learning in a class about FamilySearch Labs' Ohio death certificates collection, he spent hours finding new ancestral information. Now he's chomping at the bit to enter everything in his software.
We've been taking photos we'll post early next week in a little slideshow, including one showing the most-decorated genealogist we know. You'll see what we mean.

I just presented the latest findings of a new research published "Mobile Technographics in Europe" to Forrester clients at our London Consumer Forum.
This report looks at the state of the European mobile market and at how consumers are using mobile services. We have created different profiles looking at how consumers are using their mobile phones in the different countries.
Over the past two years, the introduction of the iPhone has changed the way consumers and brands perceive mobile phones. It acted as a marketing catalyst, raising awareness of smarter devices and conveying the idea that there are as many mobile services as there are consumers. Consumers will continue to shift their attitudes toward mobile phones — perceiving them not only as communication tools but also increasingly as entertaining and productive devices that can help them in their daily lives. More than 40% of European consumers are beginning to demonstrate sophisticated usage of mobile services.
We expect this to grow over time led by the two most sophisticated group of users (SuperConnecteds and Entertainers). They will change the general perception of mobile phones:

Women's Soccer Drops 3-0 Contest at Ball State
With the loss, the Phoenix dropped to 0-1-1 on the season, while the Cardinals improved to 2-0-0.
"Friday's night overtime game and the heat took its toll on our depth today," said head coach Trevor Warren. "We were the better team in the first half and coming out of the second until they scored the goal.
"The exciting thing is that we are creating chances and outplaying teams on the road. We just have to stay positive and get ready to play at home this upcoming weekend."
Green Bay challenged in the first half, owing a 5-2 shot advantage and 3-2 edge in corner kicks. Heidi Hartmann (Plymouth, Minn.) started the pressure just 1:15 in with a shot that forced Ball State's Brooke Dennis into a save situation. In the 33rd minute, Abby Juzwik (Madison, Wis.) had a shot blocked that led to a corner kick but Hartmann's goal attempt on the play was also blocked, leaving the scoreboard blank.
The Phoenix stayed strong in the opening of the second half, but Ball State came alive in the 62nd minute with a goal by Kelsey Wendlandt to put the hosts up 1-0. It took less than two minutes for the Cardinal to find the net again, this time as Victoria Jacobs headed the ball into the back of the net for a 2-0 advantage. BSU's Erin Greeley put her first goal of the season on the board in the 73rd minute for the final 3-0 margin.
Nastacia Behle (St. Paul, Mo.) played the entire match, allowing three goals with four saves. Hartmann led the squad with three shots, putting two of those on goal.
For the game, the Cardinals recorded a slight edge in shots, 10-9, while corner kicks were even at five apiece.
Green Bay returns to action on Friday, serving as hosts of the Phoenix Soccer Tournament. Northern Iowa will face Eastern Illinois at 2:00 p.m. before the Phoenix take to the pitch against Western Illinois at 4:00 p.m at Aldo Santaga Stadium.

It's Never Too Early!
If you take just one piece of advice from this book, let it be this: Start early! The more time you give yourself to research schools, think about your options, write essays, and search for scholarships, the better off you'll be. Many of us learned this lesson the hard way, so take our word for it and avoid last minute stress, anxiety, and worst of all, missing out on an opportunity because you waited too long.
If I could've done one thing differently it would have been to get a start on the whole process earlier.
Butler University
How early is early? You shouldn't go crazy with it, but start thinking about college during your sophomore year. Do a bit of research, take the PSATs, and give some thought to the type of college that might make sense for you. By the second semester of your junior year, your college selection and application process will be in full swing, so get there prepared and with your mind focused on the right goals.
In the next section we put together a timeline to help you organize the many tasks you have to complete as part of this process.
Create a Realistic Timeline
The college selection and application process is a long one and you'll feel more confident and relaxed if you break it down into smaller goals and plan when you need to get each one done. Get a planner or a desk calendar and create a realistic timeline that gives you enough time and includes every important step, from studying for standardized tests to going on college visits. Having a visual picture of this timeline will be really helpful.
Start with some deadlines that are set in stone, like when applications are due for Early Decision/Early Action and regular admission. As you start to find out when other events like college fairs take place, you can add them to your timeline. Once you know these fixed deadlines, you can create your own personal deadlines around them, like when to start researching and visiting schools.
Make sure that you revisit your timeline often and make any required changes. You might, for example, decide to take an additional SAT II subject test midway through your senior year. You should always put any major step like that on your timeline and leave yourself time to prepare.
It's a good idea to get into the habit of setting a specific and achievable goal for each week, like finishing an essay or working on vocabulary for the SATs. That way, you're not overwhelmed and you have a feeling of accomplishment, which we've found is pretty important.

Arsène Wenger admits that the gap between Arsenal and the Premier League pacesetters is "big" - but insists the season is not yet over for his side.
Arsenal beat West Bromwich Albion on Saturday to move up to seventh place in the table, but they are still 15 points behind leaders Manchester United.
Wenger accepts that trying to overhaul Sir Alex Ferguson's side will be difficult, but not impossible.
"The Manchester derby was of a very good level and the draw would maybe have been the fair result," the Frenchman told Arsenal Player.
"Manchester City came back - they started the game very strongly - but Man United have shown they are clinical up front.
"The rest of the weekend was quite interesting. It shows that if you're consistent, you will be there at the end of the season. From now on it is important for us to be consistent
"The gap [to the top] is big, but not big enough to think it's done."
Watch the full interview with the boss on Arsenal Player now.

Dude smacks the ball. Encouraging young bat.
Can't win with 'em
Can't win without 'em
Lutz is very physically impress and seems like a really good dude, I'm definitely rooting for him.
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
"I can't take this homerism anymore." - 10xWSChamps, August 11, 2010. A Cardinals fan having a problem with all the homerism on Redszone. Classic.
"Man do I miss the days where were didn't need a calculator and an encyclopedia of baseball metrics to enjoy a baseball game ... - MikeS21" - 8/2/12 game thread
I like Lutz's 2 K's in 19 AB's. Obviously small sample size. But Heisey's got 20 K's in 75 AB's, and 2 W's. 10 to 1 K to W ratio is cause for concern. I look at these things from the pitcher's standpoint, and this tells me nobody is afraid to throw the ball in the zone to Heisey and that he can't control very much of the zone. I fully expect the FO will send Lutz down, hopefully to AAA but maybe to AA, and reinstate Heisey. But, IMHO, we are reaching decision time about Heisey.
Considering our other options in LF, I'm OK with the current (strange) platoon of Paul and Lutz... who are both left-handed hitters. Obviously it won't be like this for long, but I don't mind it for now. I like both of these guys.
(I ate ribs with this dude!)
He has already shown the kind of bat speed you don't see all that often. The HR he hit today was an impressive example. 95 mph up and in and he turned on it like "the Cobra" used to. He might have some undiscovered weaknesses, but with that kind of bat speed you have to be cautiously optimistic about his future in the bigs.
BTW, based on what he has already shown, I'd give him a run of starts against RH pitchers NOW and let him go on unless ant until he shows he can't do the job.
He might just be a lot closer to the finished project than we expect.
I'm disappointed Dusty hasn't given him more starts while Heisey's been out. I tend to think he'll be exploited but we need to see that for ourselves. If/when he does get exploited, send him down and let him learn from it. I think this has been a wasted opportunity. It's a done deal that he'll be the one sent out seeing as how they've used him
It's very clear to everyone he will be sent back down. That's not even debatable.
I slightly disagree about being sent back to double AA simply because every one of our minor leaguers pretty much had very slow starts.......like it was ugly all over every level for the most part other than a few guys. Lutz numbers could simply be attributed to a slow start at double AA. Just like Billy is starting to come on at Louisville, maybe the majors were just what Lutz needed to get going.
If they send him to double AA, that's fine. Let him earn a promotion. But I wouldn't mind seeing him at triple AAA, because I think there's a chance he simply started slow like everyone else from Dayton, Bakersfield, Pensacola and Louisville.

In his CM: the Next Generation series, Joe Farah gives us a glimpse into the trends that CM experts will need to tackle and master based upon industry trends and future technology challenges.
A configuration management (CM) strategy must deal with product development from both a product and from a project perspective. Theformer deals with the state of a product, the requirements, features, problems, quality, etc. The latter deals with managing the tasks that will take the product through its many milestones. Dashboard technology can help to clarify the perspectives and simplify the management functions, especially from an information perspective.
A product's lifetime is typically broken up into a series of releases, with development of successive releases usually having some level of overlap. A release is typically accomplished through one or more projects which move the product through its milestones. For many products, a project is defined to move the product to a new milestone. Traditionally, a large project is defined to move a product from one release to another. In this case, the project transforms the product from one release state to another (see diagram).

Holman had six points, his fifth game this year with five or more points, on three goals and three assists in North Carolina's 10-7 road victory at Virginia, Carolina's first regular-season win over the Cavaliers in nine years. Holman had his hat trick by halftime, the 15th of his career, and was involved in four of the Tar Heels' six first-half goals. He then added two assists on goals in the second half, including one on Joey Sankey's game-clinching goal with 1:42 to play.
The three goals for the native of Baltimore, Md., give him 111 for his career, tying him for third place on North Carolina's career list. He now has 186 points, sixth most in Tar Heel history, and 75 assists, ninth most. This is his second weekly award of the season and fourth of his career.
Burke tallied 23 saves and allowed only seven goals in the victory at Virginia. The 23 stops are the fourth highest total in NCAA Division I this year, and are nine more than his previous career high of 15 set twice this season. The performance is the best by an ACC goalkeeper since 2005, when Maryland's Harry Alford registered 25 against Georgetown, and the most by a Tar Heel since Paul Spellman had 25 in 2003 against Maryland.
The native of Fort Salonga, N.Y., was the difference in the game as Virginia outshot North Carolina, 51-32, held a 41-21 advantage in ground balls, and won 15-of-20 faceoffs. Burke saved 14 of the 17 shots on goal in the second half to earn his second ACC Defensive Player of the Week accolade.

Only one way to start an in-depth look at the season opener and that's with another smooth hype video from Shane Harrison and the video crew. Welcome to the new age, indeed.
Now, time to take a closer look at what will be the difference and what you need to be paying attention to as the Bearcats host Purdue in front of 35,000 at Nippert Stadium on Saturday.
1) Center of Attention. Forget quarterback, more telling to the success of this team will be the fan snapping the ball to him. With the loss of starter Dan Sprague for the season suddenly a group with five returning starters at the heart of the offense have a hole in the middle. Taking over will be 6-foot-2, 287-pound redshirt freshman Deyshawn Bond. He came out of Indianapolis Central playing guard and tackle but will now be counted on to man the middle.
And talk about being thrown into the fire. When discussing Purdue, who is the top player most everyone will mention? Defensive tackle Bruce Gaston. The 6-2, 310-pound behemoth who goes by @bnasty90 on Twitter can ruin the Bearcats day. The Boilermakers top NFL prospect will be as big of a challenge as making all the line calls for the Bond.
"I am not going to go out there intimidated by anybody," Bond said. "I am going to go out there as hard as I can. I know he's a good guy, but I'm not too bad myself. I am going to let him know my presence is there, too. So we are going to battle the whole game."
So, join a team of linemen who spent all of last year playing together, make all the protection calls and take on the other team's best player in your first collegiate game. Welcome, Mr. Bond.
"I love it," he said. "I love competition. I will go out there and do what I got to do. I don't know what he's going to do but I know I am going to get the job done when it counts."
2) Where's RDAIV? No secret exists the most electric weapon on the Bearcats will be Ralph David Abernathy IV, but he's not an everydown back. Tommy Tuberville and first-time offensive coordinator Eddie Gran spent their offseason concocting ways to work Abernathy the ball in space. How often will he line up in the backfield? How often in the slot? How often on a reverse? Regardless, a major problem of the 2012 offense was an inability to find enough touches for their top weapon.
How successful the Bearcats are at finding space for Abernathy will go a long way to deciding how successful they are scoring points. And seeing more absurd plays like this one.
3) On the Hunt. The Bearcats believe they have the best collection of linebackers in the country between Greg Blair, Nick Temple and Jeff Luc. They will have to prove it against one of the most explosive running backs in the Big Ten.
RB Akeem Hunt averaged 8.3 yards per carry last season, though in limited action. His role is expected to be expanded this year and expectations are high he will continue to be the big play threat.
Luc may come with his top linebacker recruit tag, but hasn't played in a college game in about 20 months. How will he respond? Where will his game instincts be at? One slip up in covering an edge or pursuing the correct angle and this guy can take it to the house immediately.
New Purdue coach Darrell Hazell arrives with a dedication to running the football. Consider last year at Kent State he ran it 584 times and threw it only 358. Expect Hunt to challenge the backers ability to track him to the edges. It will be the most important aspect of slowing down the Boilers.
Don't believe Hunt can hurt you in a hurry? Ask Ohio State.
4) As the QBs turn. The quarterback question followed this team every day during fall practice. Who would it be? Munchie Legaux or Brendon Kay? Injuries have hampered both and they should each play. Likely whoever has the hot hand will take the majority of the snaps in the second half. The question will be how the rhythm of the two play with the rest of the team. Tommy Tuberville doesn't believe that will be a problem, but anytime two different signal-callers enter there will be some change.
"What I am concern about is the timing difference of what we do and how we do it, the center exchange, snap count and all those things," Tuberville said. "But we really haven't had a problem, if that would have been a problem I would have made a decision earlier and said we have to go with one guy, because we're making too many false starts, fumbled snaps and those kind of things. But we really haven't had a problem and these two kids are experienced, they both will have first game jitters but it's not like your putting redshirt freshman or sophomore knowing they haven't played a lot."
5) The Tub. The excitement over Tuberville spilled over into the ticket sales as a white out record crowd is expected for the opener Saturday. How will the crowd hamper Purdue's ability to deal with adjustments under their own first-year head coach in Hazell?
Most importantly, not only will Tuberville be leading this team on the field for the first time but Gran will be calling his first game as a coordinator. Not knowing how certain players will react to the big stage and taking on calling games for the first time will be an intriguing adjustment. Going against a team dealing with similar issues turned out to be a major advantage for Saturday. Although, it leaves both sides as in the dark about what to expect as you can imagine. Few games will be more decided by in-game adjustments as this one.
UC sure would like its opener to look a lot like last year's against Pittsburgh.
Welcome back, college football. Welcome back, Nippert Stadium.

March Madness betting looms; NCAA conference odds continue this week
The last of the conference tournaments begin Thursday as the ACC, Atlantic 10, Big Sky, Big Ten and Big West all get in on the action with opening-round play.
Meanwhile, multiple other tournaments roll on into their quarterfinal and semifinal rounds as the push to a final bracket and an onslaught of March Madness betting odds continues.
Here's a quick look at what's happening today in college hoops, with early NCAA basketball point spreads to ponder.
At the Big Ten tournament in Chicago, in a battle of bubble teams Minnesota was favored early by two points over Illinois; Michigan was favored by 14 points over Penn State; Purdue was favored by six points over Nebraska; and Iowa was favored by 10 points over Northwestern.
At the ACC tournament in Greensboro Georgia Tech was favored by two points over Boston College; North Carolina State was favored by 11 points over Virginia Tech; Maryland, which probably has to win the conference tournament to make the NCAA tournament, was favored by five points over Wake Forest; and Florida State, the defending ACC tournament champion, was favored by two points over Clemson.
And in the Atlantic 10 tournament in Brooklyn Richmond was favored by four points over Charlotte; Butler was favored by four points over Dayton; St. Joe's was favored by one point over Xavier; and UMass was favored by two points over George Washington.
In quarterfinal play at the Big 12 tournament in Kansas City 21-10 Iowa State and 20-10 Oklahoma were listed as a pick 'em; Kansas takes on Texas Tech; Kansas State battles Texas; and Oklahoma State was favored by 2.5 points over Baylor.
In the Pac-12 tournament quarters out in Vegas UCLA was favored by four points over Arizona State; fourth-seeded Arizona goes against fifth-seeded Colorado; second-seeded Cal play Utah; and third-seeded Oregon battles sixth-seeded Washington.
Finally, in second-round play in the SEC tournament in Nashville Georgia was favored by one point over LSU; fifth-seeded Tennessee takes on 13th-seeded Mississippi State; seventh-seeded Arkansas was favored by three points over 10th-seeded Vandy; and sixth-seeded Missouri goes against 11th-seeded Texas A&M.
Tournament play also continues Thursday in Conference USA, the SWAC, the WAC, the MAC, the MEAC, the Great West and the Southland.
If that's not enough to keep basketball bettors occupied, they might want to seek help.

Why has SLU adopted this policy?
Saint Louis University wants to assure an academic environment that is safe for all of its students, faculty, staff and visitors. Given the mission of the University and our frequent connection with the community in ways that involve minors, this policy has been adopted to assure appropriate protection of minors, while they are on campus or participating in activities sponsored by the University. The policy additionally outlines guidelines for those participating in and/or sponsoring programs which involve minors to assure their safety.
How do I know if this policy applies to me?
This policy applies to members of the University faculty, staff, student body, volunteers and others engaged in activities and programs that serve or include minors taking place on-campus or University sponsored activities taking place off-campus. If you have contact with minors in this capacity, the policy applies to you, and you have the responsibility to fully review and adhere to all aspects of the policy. The policy also outlines the responsibility for each individual to report any concerns about a potential abuse.
What is the definition of "minor"?
A "minor" as defined by the Policy for the Protection of Minors "includes all persons under the age of eighteen (18) years who are not enrolled as students at the University".
Are there any exceptions to the policy for minors visiting campus or participating in University-sponsored programs?
There are a few exceptions outlined in the Policy for the Protection of Minors. These exceptions include:
Are students visiting during SLU 101 summer orientation considered minors, for which the policy is applicable?
No. Students visiting during SLU 101 summer orientation are considered enrolled undergraduate students at this time of their transition to the University.
How do I know if my "program" is subject to this policy?
A "program" is defined by the Policy for the Protection of Minors as "any activity which serves or includes minors, and is under the direction or control of the University, regardless of its location, or an activity under the direction or control of an External Organization using University facilities pursuant to an agreement with the University." Examples of a "program" may include, but not be limited to, an academic program, volunteer program, camp, or other activity involving minors.
What should I do if I suspect abuse of a minor?
As outlined in the policy, "Anyone who has reason to believe that a minor has been abused, is at risk of abuse, or receives a report of alleged abuse that he or she has reason to believe to have been made in good faith, shall immediately report this to the Department of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness by calling (314)977-3000 or by contacting the police. As an alternative, a reporting party may also contact the University's anonymous reporting line at 877-525-5669. A reporting party need not have proof or evidence of abuse to make a report. If the individual has any uncertainty about whether to report suspected abuse, the person should decide in favor of making a report."
Who is required to complete a criminal background check?
All personnel (faculty, staff, students, volunteers) working with minors shall undergo criminal background checks within the past (2) years. People who may be described to work with minors, "will or might have unmonitored access to minors, even for a limited period of time, at any time during a program." Criminal background checks may reveal prior convictions which may disqualify someone from working with minors.
In addition to criminal background checks, what proactive measures are recommended to assure the safety of minors?
Interaction with minors "should be in an open environment, never behind closed doors or completely out of view of others, except where the purposes or nature of the interaction with the minor requires that degree of privacy. Unless required by the nature of the activity (for example, counseling or therapy sessions), at least two persons, one of whom meets the criminal records check requirements of this policy, should be present at all times during activities involving minors."
For minors staying on campus, "Separate accommodations are required for adults and minors, unless the adult is a parent or guardian of the minor. Signed written permission from a parent or guardian is required for a minor to stay overnight on University premises. All in-room visits with program participants staying in University housing are restricted to persons of the same gender, except for visits by a parent or guardian. All guests and visitors of program participants staying in University housing are restricted to building lobby and lounge areas and only during the hours specified by the program organizer, which in no case shall be later than 12:00am."
What training is required for people involved with programs serving minors?
Program organizers are responsible for communicating with all faculty, staff, students and volunteers regarding the scope of the Policy for the Protection of Minors, and the related expectations to ensure safety of our minors. This will include review of the policy, and any additional program-specific measures, policies and procedures to which individuals should adhere.
My program is an occasion program which requires a large number of one-time volunteers. Are criminal background checks required?
"Certain discrete or occasional programs for which a large number of one-time volunteers are essential may adopt reasonable measures and safeguards, other than criminal background checks for volunteers, to protect minors participating in such programs. Program organizers must submit a description of the measures and safeguards they will take to the Department of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness for review at least forty-five (45) days prior to the start of the program."
More specific guidelines and requirements are outlined in the Policy for the Protection of Minors. If you think your program may fit the description of a discrete or occasional program, please review these requirements.
What's the process of criminal background checks for Saint Louis University-sponsored programs involving minors?
Program organizers are responsible for assuring that each faculty, staff, student and volunteer which will work with minors as defined in the Policy for the Protection of Minors has the appropriate criminal background check processed within two (2) years. It is also the program organizer's responsibility to fund the criminal background check process. It is recommended that each program organizer factor the expense of criminal background checks into their program budget. Review the Summer at SLU criminal background check procedures for more detailed information regarding the process.
What's the process of criminal background checks for externally-sponsored programs involving minors hosted at Saint Louis University?
All external organizations hosting programs involving minors on the Saint Louis University campus must comply with the Policy for the Protection of Minors. This will include responsibility for informing their personnel and volunteers of the criminal background check requirements and assuring those requirements are met, as well as communicating and training regarding proactive safeguards that a program can implement to assure the safety and security of minors. Saint Louis University is not responsible for the processing of and/or payment for required criminal background checks for external organizations.

Watertown, Mass. – The Canisius College hockey team rallied from a three-goal third-period deficit to earn a 5-4 double-overtime victory over second-seeded Bentley on Saturday night, extending its season and forcing a game three for a best 2-of-3 Atlantic Hockey Quarterfinal series on Sunday. The Griffs improved to 15-20-3 on the season with the win, while the Falcons drop to 19-13-4.
Senior Kyle Gibbons scored 6:59 into the second overtime to give the Griffs the victory in a must-win game. Junior Tyler Wiseman back-handed the puck to Gibbons in the right face-off circle from behind the net and Gibbons one-timed it in for the game-winning tally. Sophomore Mathew Backhouse also recorded an assist to force a deciding game three.
"As the game went on, we played more and more as a team," said Canisius head coach Dave Smith. "It took a total team effort to get it done with our back against the wall and I'm proud of how we responded in the third period."
Sophomore Ralph Cuddemi led the Griffs with two goals on the night, while senior Ben Danford and freshman Shane Conacher also scored for Canisius in the win.
Senior Tony Capobianco finished with a season-high 42 saves to earn the victory in goal.
For the second-straight night, Bentley opened the game with two first-period goals to seize the early momentum. Brett Gensler scored 9:46 into the game from the low slot for the 1-0 lead before Tyler Deresky knocked a rebound in with 53.3 seconds remaining in the period.
Canisius cut its deficit in half when Cuddemi netted his 12th goal of the season. The Bentley defense lost Cuddemi in its zone and after a pass from Conacher at the blue line, the sophomore skated in 1-on-1 and his shot trickled past the goal line for the 2-1 game. Junior Mitch McCrank also added an assist on the goal just 94 seconds into the period.
Bentley, however, answered back with two more goals in the second frame. After a Canisius turnover in its own zone, Brett Switzer knocked a rebound in with 12:52 remaining in the period for the 3-1 lead. Alex Grieve then scored off a rush with just 1:30 left for the 4-1 advantage through 40 minutes.
Canisius began its rally and pulled to within two when Danford netted a goal with 14:55 remaining in regulation. The senior fired a shot in from the high slot off passes from Backhouse and Gibbons for his fifth goal of the season.
Cuddemi then cut the deficit to one with 8:41 remaining, scoring his second of the day and 13th of the season. On the power play, Danford faked a shot from the slot and fed the puck to Cuddemi, who buried his chance down low to the left of the goalie for the 4-3 score. Conacher added an assist on the tally for the only power-play score of the game.
Canisius then pulled even when Conacher netted his fifth goal of the season with just 4:05 left in regulation. Junior defender Doug Jessey made a spin move to get by his defender and then found Conacher open on the other side. The rookie buried his chance high to bring Canisius even at four. McCrank added his second assist of the night on the goal.
The rally led to Gibbons' late heroics but not before Capobianco made a pair of saves to rob Bentley of the sweep. Just over 30 seconds into the first overtime, Steve Weinstein fired a shot on net off a rush but the senior netminder made a kick save to keep the game tied at four. Capobianco was then called upon again early in the second overtime but stopped Grieve on a rush, setting up Gibbons late game-winning goal.
Bentley finished the contest with a slight edge in shots, 46-45. Canisius was 1-for-2 with the extra-man advantage, while killing both of Bentley's power-play chances.
The schools now face a deciding game three tomorrow night. Faceoff is set for 7:05 p.m.
Game Notes: The game was 86:59 long and one second short of the longest game in the program's history … Canisius played 87:00 in game two of the 2010 Atlantic Hockey Quarterfinals, also rallying from a 4-1 deficit for a 5-4 double overtime victory … That was also the last time that Canisius rallied from a three-goal deficit to earn a win … Gibbons' goal was the third overtime goal of his career and his second in the postseason (also scored in game two of the 2011 Atlantic Hockey Quarterfinals against Holy Cross) … Conacher had a career-high three points, while Backhouse registered two assists in a game for the first time in his career.

Wednesday, July 25, 2012
Although there are many of you out there who seem to think my life is one big holiday the pre-season tour is pretty much my annual break. But I don't ever remember it involving so much football.
Tuesday saw our third contest of the summer - although our first 90-minute game - and we reached the Bukit Jalil Stadium via Kuala Lumpur's Monorail and Metro system. It was definitely a far more efficient way to make that journey given the quite crazy road system we experienced in the rush hour on Monday.
As soon as you alight at the station the atmosphere hits you, almost party-like with the noise and colour heightened by the many merchandise and souvenir stalls vying for your business.
Once inside the sheer number of Gooners in this part of the world hits home and boy can they knock up a banner! Although my flag sat proudly as always it was dwarfed by the incredible size of those present from Singapore, Indonesia and Malaysia!
The noise as the teams came out was fantastic and testament once again to the incredible enthusiasm from everyone there.
As for the game, considering it was pre-season and played on an extremely difficult surface it proved pretty entertaining.
More composure in front of goal on at least three or four occasions along with a succession of corners suggest we should have been comfortably ahead at half time but we went in a goal down after an incredible strike from distance.
After making 10 substitutions at half time the second half proved a bit stop-start but with time running out Thomas Eisfeld and Chuks Aneke gave us a victory to take away from our Malaysian visit.
Post-match the squad and officials headed straight to the airport - destination Beijing and the second leg of the tour. For me it's one last day at the pool and possibly a little shopping at one of the night markets later before making my way to China tomorrow morning.
Hopefully I will see some of you there but for now a massive hello to all those I have met so far, in particular Kevin and the guys and girls from Singapore.
Thanks to all for such a friendly and enthusiastic welcome.
For now… goodbye Malaysia.

Yep. Debate for long enough to know the candidates then one nation wide vote. But then it would not take a billion dollars and selling of a candidates soul to the money wagon.
We've got to trust some part of the electronic version since that is how most votes are counted im the general electio. I don't want our leaders chosen by whoever can shout loudest like on the floor of the stock exchange. Or we could just have a national arm wrestling comtest.
If we can't thoroughly and trustworthily poll the populace to select a leader, then we are a nation to be pitied. If picture ID is too intrusive, then we have no hope. If a dependable and fraud proof means of counting can't be devised, then we have no hope.
Capt.Hope you are not saying that caucus is the way to go. If so I want to know what you have been smoking.

Topic: Upgrade from iRedAdminPro 1.2.0 to 1.3.0
according to the upgrade guide, Update iRedMail for sender/recipient throttling
is part of upgrading from iRedAdminPro 1.2.0 to 1.3.0.
i have followed it (some typo in the wiki though) but the sender throttle port of 10032 never starts up after restart
i cant seem to see anything wrong with the configs - anyone else had success.
As you maybe able to tell, i am upgrading both iredmail from 1.5.0 to 1.7.x eventually and iredadmin pro from 1.2.0 to latest
i assume both of these can be done independently as i did not see anything on that topic on the wiki?

text: I think Amanda has already served her time for the slander charges against Lumumba, so I am not concerned with those charges. I do not believe she murdered Meredith Kercher. No, I do not know all the facts that the Italian courts know. Of course I do not. No one in this thread does, as none of us are part of that court as far as I know. If anyone is, I would love to hear that person present the facts, though I doubt they would be allowed to disclose everything, in which case it is a moot point anyway. Based on the evidence I have been able to collect and read, which is probably more than some and less than others in this thread, I do not believe she killed Meredith, and I believe the court is wrong. Yes, I am biased by my own justice system - anyone would be, and I won't apologize for that. Every single person in this thread is making a judgment based on the facts they have been able - or willing - to collect and read. That is the way human beings operate, and that is what we do in every single thread on this website and in others. We give, argue, and discuss our opinions based on the facts we believe, in whatever way we came across them. I take exception to the people who have decided to accuse every single one of us who believe she is innocent of, essentially, being idiot, ignorant, egoistic Americans who don't know their assholes from their heads. I do not see a difference between our opinions, formed by the facts that we have read, and yours, except that we happen to have come to different conclusions. I do not have cable, I haven't been following this on the news, I sought out the information on my own, from both sides of the case. And I do believe that the evidence is inconclusive, to say the least. I believe she has not been proven beyond a reasonable doubt. I do not know if reasonable doubt exists in Italian courts, but if it does not then I will say - and perhaps this does make me an egotistical American - that I think a person absolutely should always be innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. I believe in that right. And I do not believe they have proven it beyond a reasonable doubt. And now I think I should stay away from this thread.

When sexy Brit Claude Jourdan shows up at Cliff Parker's house to return a lost wallet, he encounters Parker and his lover Sean Davis. They end up in the bedroom, where Davis fishes Jourdan's cock out of his shorts and begins sucking on it while Jourdan and Parker kiss. Soon, Jourdan is lying on the bed with Parker slobbering on his tool while he services Davis' meat. Next, Davis crawls down between Jourdan's legs and rims him while Jourdan slurps on Parker's cock. The men switch so that Parker can suck on Davis's tool and then kiss his lover while Jourdan rims his tight furry hole. Flipping Jourdan over onto his back, Parker and Davis take turns plowing his hole. Finally, both Parker and Davis shoot massive loads all over Jourdan, who looks like he's in heaven as torrents of cum rain down on his sweaty torso. When it's his turn to shoot, Davis jerks him off so that he can spray his jizz all over Parker's beautiful bubble butt.

With the most number of essays to date, Catholic school students, parents and teachers from around the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston gathered to celebrate the winners of the 10th annual University of St. Thomas/Archdiocesan Essay Contest with a Mass and Awards Ceremony on Jan. 22 at the Co-Cathedral of the Sacred Heart.
See pictures from the Mass and Awards Ceremony.
The Most Rev. Joseph A. Fiorenza, archbishop emeritus of Galveston-Houston, celebrated Mass. Dr. George Laird, interim superintendent of Catholic schools also attended.
A record number of 6,388 Catholic school students from third through 12th grades in 50 schools wrote essays on topics related to Pope John Paul II and how his works and words are relevant to the students' lives. The winners were selected from 664 finalists.
Senior First Place Winner Placed 4 Years in a Row
The first place winners in ninth through 12th grades received a $2,500 scholarship to UST, if they enroll.
The scholarship winners are:
The senior first place winner, Isabel Sutter, has placed all four years she entered in high school, including two first place wins as a freshman and sophomore, and third place last year. She said she's had lots of practice writing essays.
"I like to write; I do it for fun," she said. "I also like to win, so I work hard."
Sutter's parents, Herman '86 and Lynne '85, met at the University of St. Thomas and were married here. Her sister Lucia is a sophomore at the University, and Isabel hopes to continue the family legacy, interested in studying in the five-year education program and the creative writing minor at St. Thomas. Through the Essay Contest, she has earned $3,500 in scholarships.
All Winners from Third-Eighth grades
Other first place winners included:
Read all First Place essays.
Wanting to personally congratulate each student for being able to write effectively about these topics, the archbishop gave each winner a wall crucifix blessed by Pope Francis, made in the style of the one on the staff that both Pope John Paul II and Pope Francis carried from the Vatican. Students earning honorable mention received a small crucifix in the same style. Both were given to remind the students of Christ, the best of all mentors.
Out of all the essays submitted, schools selected finalists for each grade level, and the essays were read and ranked by 36 UST faculty and staff members and alumni, who chose the winners. The essays of all first place winners were enlarged as posters and put on display at the reception that followed the awards ceremony.
The contest was held just prior to National Catholic Schools Week, a time to focus on the benefits of Catholic education.

Watertown, Mass. – Brett Switzer scored 40 seconds into overtime to lead Bentley to a 4-3 victory over the Canisius College hockey team in game one of the Atlantic Hockey Quarterfinals on Saturday night. The loss drops the Griffs to 14-20-3 on the season, while the Falcons improve to 19-12-4
On a rush, a deflected shot went right to Switzer in front and he tapped it in for the game-winning tally just 40 seconds into the extra session.
"It was a really good hockey game tonight where we just missed taking the lead in the series," said Canisius head coach Dave Smith. "Bentley got a fortunate bounce for the game-winning goal but I thought physically, we controlled the game after the first 10 minutes. We really stepped up our play and showed great intensity. We just have to repeat it and bring the same game tomorrow."
Senior Patrick Sullivan led the Griffs with two tallies on the night, while junior Tyler Wiseman also scored for Canisius.
Senior Tony Capobianco finished the game with 27 saves in net.
Bentley grabbed the early advantage in the contest, opening the scoring with a power-play goal just 2:46 into the game. Alex Grieve deflected a shot from the point into the net for the 1-0 lead. The Falcons then doubled their advantage to two when Derek Bacon's shot from the right face-off circle found the back of the net with 11:12 remaining in the first.
Canisius cut its deficit in half before the end of the first when Sullivan netted his 11th goal of the season. The senior finished off a rush when junior Cody Freeman found his linemate open with a cross-ice pass through the slot. Senior Kyle Gibbons also registered an assist on the goal with 6:14 left in the period.
The Griffs carried their momentum into the second period and controlled the play throughout the 20 minutes. Canisius outshot the Falcons, 17-4, during the first 14 minutes of the frame but couldn't find the back of the net. Junior Mitch McCrank and freshman Shane Conacher had back-to-back chances five minutes into the period but were stopped both times by the Bentley netminder. Conacher then had a great look on the power play but drew pipe.
Canisius was finally able to take advantage of its sustained possession in the third, scoring two goals in the first six minutes to grab its first lead, 3-2. Wiseman pulled the Griffs even with his sixth goal of the season. Senior Taylor Law made a move in the left face-off circle to shed a Bentley defender and then fed the puck to Wiseman on the other side, who buried his chance high for the 2-2 game. Junior defender Doug Jessey also registered an assist on the goal 3:39 into the frame.
Sullivan then gave the Griffs the lead just over two minutes later, taking advantage of a long Canisius possession in the Bentley zone. The senior took advantage and hammered the puck in from close range for the 3-2 Canisius lead with 14:01 remaining in regulation. Law and Wiseman both registered assists on the go-ahead tally.
Bentley, however, did not give up and finally broke through with just 23.2 seconds remaining. With the goalie pulled, Brett Gensler slipped the puck through from the low slot off a pass from behind the net for a 3-3 contest through 60 minutes of action, setting up Switzer's heroics in overtime.
Bentley finished the game with a slight edge in shots, 31-30. The Falcons were also 1-for-4 on the power play, while Canisius was scoreless in two extra-man chances.
The Griffs now face a must-win situation in game two tomorrow. Game time is set for 7:05 p.m.
Game Notes: The loss ended the Griffs' eight-game winning streak in the postseason … It marked the second time that Sullivan scored two goals in a postseason game (also scored two in game one of the Atlantic Hockey Quarterfinals last season against Air Force) … Canisius has played an overtime game in six of the last seven postseasons, going 3-3 in the six games … The Griffs top line of Freeman, Gibbons and Sullivan has scored six of the team's 10 postseason goals and been on the ice for seven of the tallies.

The idea that I try to consistently realize in my professional life is that philosophical reasoning and ethical inquiry are activities connected with our ordinary ways of living. At some point most of us will think about, wrestle with, or be puzzled by a philosophical issue. A professional philosopher can play the role of a guide to thinking clearly, thoroughly, and consistently about these ideas.
Perhaps the main insight that guides the way I teach is that philosophy is a kind of activity — a doing — and it is, additionally, a social activity.
My students are invited to own the philosophical inquiry that takes place in my classes.

Ducks 1, Me 0
Launched out of Fortescue for the first time. Waited til it was light out to go out but it was still real soupy with the fog.
After riding around for a bit I did find some scoters in the area and did also see some squaws on the way back. Got 2 decent shots at birds but was way behind them. Some birds around but not like 2 weeks ago when I went fishing out of Cape May. There were Scoters everywhere that day. I have a couple doz bluebill decoys that I laid out, but will have to paint up some scoters.
Most of my day was spent figuring out this open water long line hunting thing. I know I need more weights on my decoys for sure. I set up (at least I thought I did) then went upwind with the boat and next thing I knew the decoys were drifting off slowly bouncing the anchors as they went. First few times will be a learning experience I'm sure. Fun regardless. I just have to wait for calm days on the bay with my boat.
Is it just me or do scoters seem to prefer deeper water than squaws? I saw most of them further out and the squaws in the shallower water as I rode back to the ramp.
Anyone have a preferred sea duck choke and load?
Also I bought some 6 mil plastic sheeting a little while ago and put it on the sides of the boat blind to do the visqueen thing and have it look like water to the birds. Anyone have this work for them or should I just leave the boat blind in a low position and create a smaller profile?
Looking forward to getting out again if the weather is right. Maybe between Christmas and New Years.

Well I would like to know first if every gas station has a different effect on the car. i.e. I use 93 octane but from a gas station known as AP which 93 is priced at $3.12/gallon I think, and since I'm a college student this is my price range without wasting all my money just on gas. All in all what gas station do you recommend if it matters at all and if it doesnt please tell me.
**Hopefully I get a response within half-an hour trying to fill it up now**
Thanks in advance everyone for educating me.

African and Diaspora Studies is the study, research, interpretation, and dissemination of knowledge concerning African American, African, and Caribbean affairs and culture.
Why offer African and Diaspora Studies?
1) African and Diaspora Studies occupies a central, not peripheral role in understanding modern American life. It acknowledges that people of African descent have contributed significantly to the making of the United States and have played a vital role in world history and culture.
2) African and Diaspora Studies directly engages the issues of race and difference, pulling together courses that are relevant to an increasingly diverse world, a world within which our students need to know how to function.
Because African and Diaspora Studies embraces a wide spectrum of experiences and issues, the program is multi-and interdisciplinary in its approach. Students can choose courses among many disciplines: English, history, sociology, music, geography, religion, political science, Spanish and theatre and dance. As a program which embodies the liberal arts mission, the primary objectives of the Africana minor are to
1) Foster interdisciplinary study in the humanities, arts and social sciences.
2) Stimulate students within a learning environment that encourages appreciation of the history and culture of African peoples.
3) Explore the diversity and range of thought in the African Diaspora.
4) Teach the economic, psychological and social situation of Blacks past and present.
The Program Advisory Committee, drawn from faculty members teaching in the program and others who have research interests in the field, will administer the program. Current members of the PAC are: Lori Askeland, English; Warren Copeland, Religion; Keith Doubt, Sociology; Christine McIntyre, Spanish, and Scott Rosenberg, History.
Senior Project
During the senior year, our minors are required to complete a two-credit Senior Project that explores the Black Diasporic connections between academic disciplines. Students often study and analyze the intersection of African and Diaspora Studies and their major. For example, one student produced and directed a compilation of scenes from plays by two important African American playwrights while another planned a Black Knowledge Conference for the Wittenberg community in conjunction with the Office of Multicultural Student Programs.
Study abroad
African and Diaspora Studies minors travel abroad to Africa and South America to study issues concerning the African Diaspora. For the last several years, Professor of History Scott Rosenberg has led a popular, four-week summer program to the South African Kingdom of Lesotho. Participants take two courses in African and Diaspora Studies (ADST 270 and History 270) and work with Habitat for Humanity and local orphanages.

I have been having this problem for sometime now and i have not yet figured out why this happens. I have updated my Wicd to 1.6.2 hoping that it fixed the problem and it did not.
I have an ASUS 1000HE, everything works great except the Wicd. The problem is I have connection to the router, but no Internet. The router is broadcasting the SSID along with the signal of b & g. And the encryption is WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK TKIP/AES. The channels are set to Auto, but even a fix channel does not fix the problem. The router is a NETGEAR WGR614v9. I also have this problem conneting to the new Linksys routers. But the funny thing is, when i connect to Belkins I do not seem to have this problem.
Going back to the no Internet thing, i am able to maintain the router on the laptop but i can not ping any sites. Please let me know if this can be fixed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Former Arsenal goalkeeper Rami Shaaban has been named in Sweden's squad for the World Cup.
The 30-year-old now plays for Fredrikstad and was drafted into Lars Lagerback's 23-man squad ahead of Eddie Gustafsson. He joins former team-mate Freddie Ljungberg at this summer's tournament in Germany.
Sweden are in the same group as England, Paraguay and Trinidad and Tobago.
Shaaban joined Arsenal in August 2002 and made five appearances. He played against PSV Eindhoven and Roma in the Champions League and kept goal in Premiership fixtures against Tottenham, Aston Villa and Manchester United.
Shaaban broke his leg on Christmas Eve in 2002 and did not appear again for Arsenal's first team. After recovering he built up his fitness during loan spells at West Ham and Brighton before leaving England.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.
