RU alumna 'living the dream' as Miss Virginia USA
What was Arielle Rosmarino '13 thinking the moment she was crowned Miss Virginia USA 2014 in November?
"Well, I couldn't tell you exactly," she said. "I think I kind of blacked out."
Rosmarino, who graduated from Radford University in May 2013 with a degree in marketing, was standing in the exact spot on stage she was on two years ago when her name was announced as first runner up in the Miss Virginia pageant.
"All I could think about was hoping and praying they called her name first," Rosmarino said of the tense moment in the November 2013 pageant when she and the only other remaining contestant, Maggie Lawson, stood holding hands on the Paramount Theater stage in Bristol, waiting to hear which of the two would receive the crown.
When Lawson's name was called as the first runner up, Rosmarino's excitement turned her memory of the moment into a blur. "When I heard them say Maggie, I remember dropping my hands and hugging her, and that is all."
Now, just a few months into her new role, Rosmarino said she is "living the dream," and serving as Miss Virginia is "something spectacular."
"Being Miss Virginia USA means a whole lot more to me now than before I was crowned, and will probably mean even more once I have to give up my title," the Salem native said.
Wearing the crown as Miss Virginia comes with many responsibilities, and Rosmarino is enjoying every single moment. "I get to travel across the state and be involved with lots of very unique opportunities," she explained. "My favorite part about my appearances is the interactions. I love meeting new people, inspiring and motivating them to set and reach their goals."
Rosmarino said she loves hearing stories from the many people she meets at public appearances. She also enjoys putting a choke hold on stereotypes often associated with pageant participants.
"I feel that a lot of people pre-judge pageant girls to be high-maintenance, uneducated or even stuck up," she said. "People would be surprised to know that I wrestled on the boys team for nine years, I have a business marketing degree and love volunteering. Being able to share my story to inspire others and to be inspired by other people's stories is one of my favorite parts of being Miss Virginia USA," she said.
The marketing education she earned at RU has played a pivotal role, Rosmarino said, in helping her adapt to her new role as a public figure and in her job as marketing director and sales consultant at Proms, Pageants and Pretty Things at the Brides House in Roanoke.
"The job title of Miss Virginia USA is pretty much a marketing position," Rosmarino explained. "I not only have to market the pageant system, but I have to market myself. One of the biggest things that my RU education helped me with was real-life scenarios with situations that I wasn't that familiar with because they helped me think outside of the box."
When Rosmarino was pursuing her education at RU, Marketing Professor Angela Stanton knew her student had what it takes to be a successful marketer.
"When Arielle was here at RU, I had no idea she was involved in pageants," Stanton said. "However, it all makes sense to me now. Arielle had excellent presentation skills. She had poise, confidence and knew how to command an audience."
Rosmarino said learning how to network as a student in the College of Business and Economics (COBE) is one of the aspects of RU education that has guided her most in being Miss Virginia USA and in her position as a marketing director. "I took advantage of a lot of the business opportunities at COBE, which gave me practice with talking and networking, said Rosmarino, who is a brother of the international business fraternity, Delta Sigma Pi, of the Omicron Pi chapter at RU."
Rosmarino has a full schedule ahead of her for the next several months. However, soon it will be time to walk out on stage again. She will compete for the Miss USA 2014 crown, June 8 in Baton Rouge, La. During NBC's live broadcast of the pageant, viewers will have an opportunity to vote for Rosmarino.
She said she's not nervous, but excited to represent Virginia at the Miss USA pageant.
"I hope everyone can watch and vote for me," Rosmarino said.

There have been two whole release streams since then. Even the 2.1 release is now considered "Historic." As such, any lessons one might have gleaned from studying 2.0's performance characteristics were identified and addressed years ago.

When Beck's identity disc was stolen on the Light Rail, his memory started to unravel. Hoping to prevent a permanent memory loss that would leave him a stray (or knowledge of the renegade's identity reaching the Occupation), he and Tron -- the latter masked so as to be unrecognizable -- set out to infiltrate the crime-ridden underbelly of Purgos, Argon City's closest neighbor.
After a few interrogations, they arrived at a pawn shop owned by Kobol. When asked about the missing disc, he denied knowledge of it until Beck begged him to tell them what they need to know. Tron and Beck arrived at the alley where they were supposed to meet Kobol again, but they were instead ambushed by a local gang of programs. As the fight continued, Beck started to have his first memory glitch. A mysterious siren named Lux appeared and helped Tron and Beck escape. She guided them through the complex world of Purgos and its menacing criminal gangs, and together they tracked down Galt, the program who had stolen Beck's disc; but Galt was derezzed before he could tell them where it was, and the killer escaped when Beck glitched again. Lux took the two programs to her home, but her true intentions were revealed when, during Beck's third glitch, she knocked Tron out and convinced the vulnerable Beck that he was actually an Occupation soldier.
Upon awakening, Tron learned that Lux and Kobol were working together, stealing discs and providing strays for the Occupation to repurpose. Beck, convinced of the story Lux had told him, was unable to recognize Tron and accompanied Kobol to the pickup site. Tron appealed to Lux and, despite her unreturned love for Kobol, convinced her to free him; racing to save Beck, he defeated Kobol but was held at staff-point by his still-glitching protoge. Desperate, Tron unmasked himself, relying on Beck's inner nature and arguing that even without his memories, Beck was not a killer. When Beck refused Kobol's exhortations to kill Tron, Kobol turned on him, and in the subsequent struggle Beck regained his disc and Lux, galvanized by the knowledge that Tron lived, derezzed her former boss.
During the fight, a recognizer had landed at the pickup point, releasing a squad of guards to pick up their newest victim. Lux, realizing that they were outnumbered, gave her disc to Tron and Beck, and charged into the squad with Kobol's staff, derezzing several of them and buying time for the Grid's heroes to escape before she was finally overpowered and killed.
Tron and Beck later brought Lux's disc to a power spring in the Outlands, activating and releasing it to release her memory to the system again. As they watched it float away, Tron told Beck that he had been reluctant to accept friendship with him because he had once let friendship with another program cloud his judgment, and it had proved to be a terrible mistake. He assures Beck that with him, he had chosen correctly.
- Similar to how Beck altered his light suit in Beck's Beginning, Tron creates for himself a discreet, almost-completely black light suit without needing the recoding tool. Whether this is a special ability belonging only to him remains unknown.

James Joyce Estate Sends Takedown For Joyce Quote In DNA
from the a-portrait-of-an-intellectual-monopolist dept
"To live, to err, to fall, to triumph, to recreate life out of life."To claim that this is infringement seems pretty ridiculous. What's unclear from the article, though, is whether or not Venter fought this or just accepted it and agreed to take the quote out. This isn't the first time that the Joyce estate has done stuff like this, including an attempt to stifle a biography by use of a copyright claim. In that case, the estate finally learned that they had no claim when they actually had to pay up to settle the case.

Friday, December 30, 2011 - Christmas Wank Party 2011 Part 2
Christmas Wank Party 2011 features 5 of the hottest guys of the year. From Mirek Ceslar, as Father Christmas to the four cutest newcomers Jan Subrt, Honza Forst, Kaja Kolomaz and Jakub Nakuda everyone looks great. This second part of the Wank Party has a lot to live up to, but does so magnificently. The action continues from part one, with Honza fucking Kaja and Jan riding Mirek's big dick, as Jakub assists. Jan is rock hard as his ass moves up and down on Mirek's throbbing cock. Kaja is really feeling Honza's dick deep in his ass too. Jakub wants some action too and leans down to lap a Mirek's cock and Jan's ass as the fucking continues. Then as Jan is riding Mirek's cock Jakub sucks on his throbbing cock too. Having tasted that hard cock Jakub moves up and kisses Jan. Honza's cock is fucking Kaja nice and deep, with Kaja feeling every thrust. Jakub wants in on that action too and moves over to kiss Kaja and then goes down to suck on his cock. Mirek notices the action and decides that Jakub's ass needs attention, so he employs one of the Christmas presents, a vibrator on that sexy ass, with Jan looking on. Then Jan takes over the vibrator action on Jakub's ass and positions himself so that Mirek can slip his rock hard cock back into his ass for more fucking. All 5 guys are enjoined in one hot action sequence, with 3 holes being filled. Then they move, with Jan on his knees, doggy style and Honza riding his hot hole, while Kaja wants some of Mirek's big dick, so he rides it as hard as he can. That cock in his ass feels so good that Kaja shoots his creamy load over Mirek's chest. That really gets Mirek going and he stands and shoot his big, squirty load over Kaja's and Jakub's faces. He then pushes his cock into Jakub's willing mouth for cleaning, and then he gives a final taste of cock to Kaja too. Jakub and Kaja then kiss each other before Jaub moves under Honza's cock, which shoots a nice load into his mouth and over his face. The he sucks the cock into his mouth for more. It all gets Mirek hot again and he shoots another load, this time over Jan's face. Then, as he wanks himself Jan sucks Mirek's cock dry, as Jakub and Honza kissing each other, bringing a really great Wank Party to a lovely conclusion.

Our Coming Soon Set Preview
We paired the lovely Dima Lukin with the handsome Honza Copak for a really good duo. Both are very handsome guys and have proved themselves before so I was sure they would do well together. Things get started with Dima reclining and eating an apple, his balls peeping out from his toga. Then, as the camera pulls out we see that he is watching Honza, similarly dressed, playing with his dick. Honza joins Dima on the couch and shares his apple as he rubs his leg. Then they start to kiss, with Dima working his way down Honza's massive chest and quickly sucking on his big, fat cock. He really knows how to suck and his mouth works up and down Honza's thick shaft, making it throb as he sucks it. Then it is Honza's turn to suck and he takes Dima's solid dick in his mouth sucking it real well. He then stands and places each foot, in turn, on Dima's chest allowing him to remove his footwear. Honza rubs his foot over Dima's chest as Dima feels those hairy legs. Then the guys move into a 69 and start sucking again. Dima loves cock and his tongue swirls all over Honza's. Honza is feeling so horny, he just has to have a taste of Dima's ass and gets down for some rimming. Soon Dima is ready for more, with his ass just wanting to be filled. HOnza lays on the couch and Dima gets on top and slides his hot hole right down, over Honza's throbbing dick. He rides that cock so well , sliding up and down on that rock hard pole. If Dima is a hot sucker he is also a wonderful bottom as he fucks himself onto Honza's solid dick. It really gets Honza going and he starts to fuck up into that hot ass. Honza wants more and Dima moves into a doggy position for more fucking. Honza pounds that ass, with his big, fat cock, with Dima pushing his hard cock back between his legs. He really stays hard while his ass is being fucked deep and hard. Dima turns onto his back and gets another pounding from that cock. Honza is a get top and really throws a great fuck into Dima's hole. He fucks him so well that Dima cant help it, he shoots his load while that cock is deep in his ass. That sets Honza off too and he moves and quickly dumps a huge, creamy load over Dima's face, with Dima sticking his tongue out to slurp at the spent cock. Honza then lowers himself down onto Dima's chest to rest after his exertions, bringing a really wonderful scene to a close. Two really hot guys, who certainly know what they like going at it for us, what a great scene.

It's hard to believe this will be the last Newsletter of 2011. I was just remarking to one of my friends, as they years add up, they seem to whizz by a lot faster. There was no disagreement in that department.
Weather in Prague has turned kind of rainy and nasty. Hopefully, it will become a little drier by Sunday. In less than and an hour, Aida will be leaving for Granny's farm for the New Year. That will be good for her. We're bombarded with fireworks here at New Year's. They just make her crazy. Fireworks are few and far between down on the farm. I'm located less than a block from the river. There is an unusual ordinance in Prague, fireworks, anywhere in the city, require a permit, EXCEPT on the river. Because of that exception, no one ever gets a permit, and no one ever puts on a fireworks display except on the river. The one exception was the City's kiddy New Year's Day display, cancelled two years in a row because of Ms. Merkle's austerity program. I guess the city can issue itself a permit anywhere it wants to put on the show. New Year in Prague used to be quite wild. Now that we're becoming much more civilized, New Year has become a lot tamer.
Anyway from all out team, to you and yours a Very Happy and Prosperous New Year!
I just posted a teaser video of a Screen Test by Roman's best friend, Rudy. Roman and Rudy came in for a Broke Czech Boys. They only agreed to do it if they could do it together. They are bosom buddies. Roman is by FAR the more gay. He is the hardest to convince to do more (IMHO for that very reason). Rudy took Boris aside and asked for this Screen Test THE VERY NEXT DAY. Rudy got plowed by Paul Fresh in every way imaginable. He's the str8 one. Roman is the gay one. Go figure…. Great episode and I'll edit a 25 minute version over the weekend to publish later on the site.
Kyptus and the guys are anxious to make themselves scarce for the holidays, so I'll plow right in.

CRESTVIEW � It's the summer of public wall art in North Okaloosa County.
CRESTVIEW � It's the summer of public wall art in North Okaloosa County.
As a state prisoner wraps up a mural on Baker Block Museum, muralist Darryl Davis is working on the north wall of a 1920s Main Street building.
"If the weather would just cooperate I'd have more done," Davis said, adding one of the frequent recent showers to hit the area caused some of the paint to run before it dried.
Davis' mural on the side of the Stewart Law Firm continues a tradition of large-scale artwork on early and mid-20th-century commercial buildings.
The art offers a glimpse of when the building served as a dentist's office. Through a hole-in-the-wall view, a girl peers at an old-time dentist's chair and equipment.
Other motifs include a 1960s scene of a boat being rowed up flooded Main Street, an old postcard and the Fox Theatre.
Daily history lessons
Main Street barber Mack Brooks, whose shop is the longest continuously operating business in the historic district, offers Davis near-daily support and advice, the artist said.
Brooks shares his frequent history lessons with Davis during the octogenarian's daily walks from his barbershop to lunch at Uncle Bill's Restaurant, and sometimes in the morning as well.
"I'm going to paint his picture on that 2-cent stamp on the old postcard," Davis said. "Mack stops and gives me his 2 cents' worth, so I'm giving it back to him."
Several downtown buildings� sides historically had lavish artwork and advertisements.
Former Main Street Crestview Association director Ryan Arvay was in negotiations with Coca-Cola for funding to restore an old-fashioned Coke ad on the side of the former New Central Caf�.
However, when the City Council cut funding for his position, Arvay resigned before the project could come to fruition.
Davis drew a 1-inch scale layout of the mural and scaled each square inch up to a square foot on the building�s smooth stucco side.
When Davis is finished, the mural will fill the entire side of the building and will wrap partially around the back.
He expects it will take at least two more months, weather permitting, before the work is finished.
Want to go?
Watch muralist Darryl Davis work on the side of the Stewart Law Firm building most weekdays during fair weather at 215 N. Main St., Crestview.

DailyDirt: Flying With The Greatest Of Ease
from the urls-we-dig-up dept
- NASA is testing an experimental wing design with 18 electric motors as part of its Leading Edge Asynchronous Propeller Technology (LEAPTech) project. Each motor can be optimized for better ride quality and noise reduction -- and possibly improved fuel consumption. [url]
- The Russian PAK TA concept is a supersonic transport that could be ready for military service by 2024. A 200-ton capacity plane traveling at 1200 mph with a range of 4,000 miles sounds a bit futuristic because it would be amazing to see a plane actually capable of doing it (but maybe not so amazing in another 10 years or so).

The Abbott government is unrepentant in its refusal to discuss Tamil asylum seekers reportedly being sent back to Sri Lanka, amid claims it has thrown its moral compass overboard.
The government will not confirm reports they have been or would be handed over to Sri Lankan authorities after being intercepted trying to reach Australia by boat.
Handing them back would constitute a violation of Australia's responsibilities under the United Nations refugee convention.
The reports say one boat came from India with 153 Tamil asylum seekers, including about 30 children, and a second, carrying 50 people, might have sailed from Indonesia.
But for almost a week, Immigration Minister Scott Morrison and Prime Minister Tony Abbott have said the government's policy is not to divulge "on water" operations.
"The Australian government ... is always cognisant of our international obligations and relevant conventions," Mr Morrison also said on Thursday.
Mr Abbott said Sri Lanka was a peaceful country no longer plagued by civil war.
"I don't say it's a perfect country," Mr Abbott said.
There are also reports that Australia is screening the Tamil asylum seekers at sea via video link, and some will be handed into Sri Lankan custody, also at sea, after being asked just four basic questions.
The UN refugee agency has expressed concern about any processing short cuts that "may risk putting already vulnerable individuals at grave risk of danger".
Asylum seekers must be properly screened for protection needs in a way they can understand and lets them explain their needs, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees said in a statement.
Sri Lanka's high commissioner to Australia, Admiral Thisara Samarasinghe, has played down claims of ongoing human rights abuses.
Asked what would happen to those who are returned to Sri Lanka, he said they would face the magistrates court and be released on bail.
"If there is criminal evidence of such people, they would be punished and put through the normal process," Admiral Samarasinghe told Sky News.
The Tamil Refugee Council accused the Australian government of not just ignoring human rights abuses but becoming an eager facilitator.
"Australia's moral, ethical and legal compass has been lost at sea," Tamil Refugee Council spokesman Trevor Grant said.
Labor's immigration spokesman, Richard Marles, demanded the government come clean with the Australian people.
Meanwhile, Mr Morrison has confirmed an eight-week-old Australian-born baby is among a group of 14 asylum seekers from four families sent from the South Australian Inverbrackie detention centre to Darwin.
They will be transferred to Christmas Island because they have been deemed fit to return to the island.

Gendered Literacy: An Integrated Conceptual Model
Emily Seitz
Monday, 6:30pm
The term "gendered literacy" is appearing with increasing frequency in both the education and library and information science literatures but has not yet been fully defined. The proposed poster treats this concept of gendered literacy within Western cultures and discusses the importance of children's literacy in a rapidly changing reading and information environment, especially in light of the apparent gender gap in reading. The proposed poster presents a cohesive literature-based model for gendered literacy. Although previous research has addressed gendered literacy from a variety of perspectives, it has not yet provided an integrated conceptual model. Additionally, the proposed poster presents initial results of a qualitative content analysis of words and images in a sample of blogs about children's literature drawn from the KidLitosphere web portal, considering these blogs as vehicles through which socio-cultural conceptions of gendered literacy may be disseminated.

Rams Bounce Back in NCAA's against Muhlenberg
#6 Farmingdale State - 4, #7 Muhlenberg - 1
Mahwah, N.J. - The Farmingdale State College softball team defeated Muhlenberg (19-18) today, in their second game of the NCAA Division III Regionals. The Rams took a 4-1 victory to stay alive in the bracket of the double-elimination tournament. The win improves Farmingdale to 33-5 overall, a new school record for wins, and marks the first NCAA Tournament win in program history.
Sophomore pitcher Heather Buckshaw (Oakdale, N.Y./Connetquot) got the win for the Rams going five innings, striking out three and allowing five hits to improve to 16-3 on the year.
Muhlenberg got on the board with a run in the top of the second on a double to center, a sac bunt and a sacrifice fly. But the Rams got one back in the bottom of the inning with an RBI single from junior designated hitter Kim Ferraiolo (Staten Island, N.Y./Tottenville). Sophomore shortstop Nicole Farber (Oakdale, N.Y./Connetquot) led off with a single through the right side, before sophomore catcher Arielle Morelli (Bohemia, N.Y./Connetquot) bunted her over to second. Senior right fielder Kristina Cirillo (Brentwood, N.Y./Brentwood) struck out but reached first on a passed ball, which moved Farber over to third. Ferraiolo's single scored Farber for the game tying run, 1-1.
Farmingdale tacked on another run in the third after a single through the right side by Cirillo, scoring freshman first baseman Aubrey Walker (West Babylon, N.Y./West Babylon) for the 2-1 lead.
Muhlenberg's best offensive chance came in the top of the fifth, when they had runners on first and third with two outs, but a diving catch in right field by Cirillo saved a run and ended the inning.
The Rams added two insurance runs in the bottom of the fifth and freshman pitcher Hope Zino (Bay Shore, N.Y./Bay Shore) came in to finish on the mound for Buckshaw. Zino faced eight batters in the final two innings, striking out two in the sixth and a game-ending strikeout in the seventh to pick up her second save of the season.
Farmingdale will now play Saturday at 10:00 a.m. against the loser of the Messiah/Moravian game. The winner of that game plays Saturday at 4:00 p.m.

Future plans: a canteen and secondary school
Ninon Völkers, President of the Engel & Völkers Charity e.V., spent a week in Togo with pupils at the "L´école privée Engel & Völkers". She used her visit as an opportunity to think about the children's prospects further into the future, together with the school's Headmaster Robert Nyagbe and other project team members including her mother Ingrid von Aalst. "In around two years from now, the first children will be completing their education in our primary school. In most cases it is still absolutely uncertain what they are going to do afterwards however," said Ninon Völkers.
Initial plans for a secondary school, for example specialising in agriculture, have now been discussed at greater length. Further details and plans now have to be developed. In addition, Ninon Völkers was informed about the next construction project – a canteen for the school. Work on the building is due to begin in the near future.

Martha Stewart's Cakes
When offered cake, my policy is to always say "yes." And when Martha Stewart offers a book of her best layer cakes, quick breads, and bundt cakes, you best believe I am jumping up and down with both hands in the air. With fall officially here, my baking switch has been flipped and I am all about butter, sugar, and eggs. Martha's new book has arrived right on time.
Quick Facts
• Who wrote it: The Editors of Martha Stewart Living
• Who published it: Clarkson Potter
• Number of recipes: Over 150
• Recipes for right now: Cranberry-Orange-Walnut Tea Cakes, Coconut Rum Raisin Cake, New York-Style Crumb Cake, Vanilla Sheet Cake with Malted-Chocolate Frosting, Honey Cake with Pears, Apple Pie Upside-Down Cake
• Other highlights: I always find myself a little stumped when it comes time to bake a cake. I fall back on the same old, same old... but grumpily. What's new? What's different? What's exciting?!
Here is our answer. I flip to any page of Martha Stewart's new book and find myself inspired. It's party due to the gorgeous full-page photographs of every single recipe in the book and partly the fact that these recipes just sound so darn good! If anyone has mastered how to capture our attention at first mention of "caramelized" or "glazed" or "chocolate," it's the folks at Martha Stewart. These cakes look incredible.
The book is very easy to navigate. Step 1, decide what kind of cake you want to make — there are chapters covering loaf cakes, bundt cakes, coffee cakes, single-layer cakes, cheesecakes, icebox cakes, cakes with fruit, and last but not least, layer cakes. Take your pick! Step 2, decide what you want in your cake — I love all the variations on each basic cake. No matter the season, whether you're craving warm winter spices or fresh summer fruit, there are cakes in each chapter to satisfy.
It sounds silly, maybe, but I really appreciate the layout of each recipe. For one thing, the ingredients and the entire recipe are all on one page so there's no awkward flipping back and forth while assembling a tricky recipe for the first time. The ingredients are also divided into the major components of the recipe: the cake, the glaze, the filling, the fruit and so on. This makes it easy to quickly reference what is needed for each step. The steps themselves are all succinctly explained without getting overly complicated.
I could hardly believe that this was Martha Stewart's first all-cake cookbook when I read it on the cover. But it's true! She's done wedding cakes, cookies, pies, and even cupcakes, but strangely, not cakes. I for one am glad this gap in our Martha Stewart lore has finally been filled.
• Who would enjoy this book? Anyone needing some new cake inspiration or wanting a definitive compendium of cake recipes for their cookbook shelf; fans of Martha Stewart
Find the book at your local library, independent bookstore, or Amazon: Martha Stewart's Cakes by the Editors of Martha Stewart Living

text: My husband and I just bought our first home. It took us forever to save for a down payment and get a good rate on a loan, so we are so happy this process is finally over. It was definitely tougher than we thought it would be. We have wanted to buy a house for a long time but just couldn't seem to find the right place, at the right price. We are really excited to finally be able to move in. Our kids are really enthusiastic too since the house we bought is just down the street from my sister's. That means that they will be able to play with their cousins more often, and they are just so happy. Since we are new to home ownership, my sister recommended we check out Home-alarm-systems.COM. I'm glad she brought up the subject of home security to us because I don't think we would have thought about it on our own. We need to be prepared for whatever comes our way now that we are homeowners, and getting a home security system should help us with that.

A few months ago, I was given the opportunity to try out the new Vango 36LED Eco Lantern. When I took it out the box the thing that strikes you is the solidity of the build despite, like all modern electric lanterns, being man made materials.
What it says on the tin (or box in this case)
Vango Eco 36 LED Dynamo Lantern. New for 2011 the Eco 36led lantern has all the things people have liked on the 36LED dynamo lantern, mains charger, 12v charger & wind up charging but with the addition of the solar panel. Six hours of solar charging will give up to 4 hours of light.
· Weight: 645g (lamp only)
· Dimensions (HxW): 25.5 x 13cm
· 2 modes: 18 or 36 LED's
· 3 x Ni-MB Batteries included
· 6 hours solar charging for 4 hours of light
· 2 min of winding = 25 min of light
· Carry handle
· 110-240V UK plug and 12V car adaptor
Aesthetically, it looks like a lantern, very traditional with weighted base containing the on/off switch, batteries, electric charging socket and the fold away winding mechanism. The base is a matt, almost rubbery feel black finish. The glass, a polycarbonate material I think, is protected by vertical stainless bars. The top of the unit contains the handle with integral hanging hook and on the top is the solar charging panel. The great benefit of this electric lantern over traditional flame lanterns is the safety aspect especially if you are in a small space or camping with children.
Since Ive had it, Ive used it a couple of times camping, sailing and in the house during a power outage. With charging options being via the 12v car adapter, 240/110v mains, solar or winding it is very simple to keep charged. Every time it has provided plenty of light on full 36LEDs for the time required (3-4hrs) without noticeable loss in light output. As with LED's it is not a 'warm' or smelly light like gas or petrol. I suspect that without a good sunny day you would have to do a bit of winding but hey it would pass the time and keep you fit! The winding handle is comfortable enough and neatly folds away unobtusively into the body. As with all solar devices you need to remember to place it outside in the sun during the day and not leave it in the tent!
In the carry handle is chunky containing a nifty wee fold out bit with a hook for hanging although could be bigger to make it a bit more secure. Still it worked well at Scout camp the other week hanging from the centre of a patrol tent and lots of kids running around.
All in all a good traditional styled lantern for use at home or camping and can be got for around £25, not bad when you look at the cost of gas or liquid fuel lanterns (not even looking at the fuel costs!) Weight for weight it stands up well against other traditional lanterns being generally lighter when also considering the fuel.
Nice solid lantern and as with a lot of Vango gear it dosen't cost the earth and is reasonably well designed and made!

On Friday, July 25 at 7:30 p.m., there will be a public concert at Paul Blackburn and Kristen Dillon's house, 401 Montello, Hood River. A donation to the Mid-Columbia Folklore Society of $10 is suggested. Tea and cookies will be served.
Jamie Stillway and Ben Bonham perform duets on a variety of steel string and acoustic lap steel guitars. Their unique guitar styles complement each other perfectly to produce a fresh, inspiring sound that is sophisticated and fun.
Jamie Stillway is one of the best young female acoustic guitarists currently performing in the U.S.A. Originally from Minnesota, Stillway recently settled in Portland. With a foundation in classical guitar, Stillway soon shifted her focus to the complex ragtime guitar styles of the 1920s, and has had the benefit of studying with many of today's top acoustic players. These influences, along with a newly developed passion for gypsy jazz guitar have contributed to Stillway's distinct sound.
Ben Bonham has over ten years of professional experience as a live performer and recording musician in both the U.K. and the U.S.A. Since 1996, this British expatriate has delighted U.S. audiences with his renderings of old time American music and his mastery of delta blues, vintage Hawaiian lap steel and country blues and ragtime guitar. Bonham has several CDs to his credit, which have earned him the admiration of acoustic and steel guitar aficionados, and can often be seen playing his varied collection of vintage musical instruments at major festivals as the ultimate One-Man Band.

Yellowstone, Tetons, Ranches and more…Jackson Hole
It's that time of year again… the family is all together and it is time to decide on next year's vacation destination. It doesn't matter if you are a young couple, mature couple, large family, or small the Jackson Hole area has something offer each diverse traveler. Make this year's vacation an adventure filled with new experiences, while exploring this educational and historic area.
Wyoming is home to our nation's first National Park, Yellowstone National Park, founded in 1872. However, Yellowstone is not the only park the neighbors Jackson Hole, there is also Grand Teton National Park. Jackson not only has two historic and magnificent parks in its backyard, but is also home to many guest ranches and summer attractions.
Guest Ranches such as Goosewing Ranch are a great way to visit the area with the ease of an all-inclusive package. While staying at a ranch you can enjoy many different activities from hiking, horseback riding, line dancing, spa treatments, rodeos, cookouts, off-roading, and more. But, make sure you save some time to visit Jackson Hole for some shopping, rodeo, rafting and a quick history lesson, and then head into Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Park. There are many outfitters that will guide you through the parks in all fashions, but if you are a do-it-yourself kind of person here are a few tips. I would suggest leaving your accommodations early in the morning and hitting the trail. You should allow for a full day or more in each park, 12+ hours. If you only have one day I suggest driving the lower loop of Yellowstone. You will see such features as Old Faithfull, boiling paint pots, hot springs and swimming holes, water falls, grand canyons, and hopefully some wildlife. There are many different board walks taking you safely around various features of the park, and many have interruptive rangers on site to answer questions. Remember obey all warning and safety postings and keep a vast distance between yourself and ALL wildlife. Yellowstone might have park behind its name but that doesn't mean it is safe to play or recreate anywhere.
Grand Teton National Park has much to offer as well. This is a great area to enjoy the water or spend the day hiking. Grand Teton has hiking trails suitable for those looking for an easy family picnic and hike to the more adventurous climber and backpacker. Grand Teton has many great opportunities to view wildlife and is a photographer's dream.
Jackson, Yellowstone, Grand Teton and Wyoming all have a lot to offer a diverse group of travelers. With a history, adventure, and science rich environment you will return home with more than a vacation, you will return home with an experience. Visit Jackson Hole, experience the Wild West!

The salacious headlines keep on coming: "Gandhi left his wife to live with a male lover' new book claims." "Book claims German man was Gandhi's secret love."
"Book Claims Gandhi Was in Love With a Jewish Bodybuilder."
The lurid press coverage is behind the decision of several Indian states to ban – or consider banning – a new book about Mahatma Gandhi after reviews suggested the revered Mahatma had a homosexual relationship.
The state assembly of Gujarat, where Gandhi was born, voted unanimously to immediately ban Joseph Lelyveld's "Great Soul: Mahatma Gandhi and His Struggle With India" with many other states like Maharastra keen to follow suit.
Because the book has not yet been released in India, the outcry and resulting bans are based on US and UK book reviews – some accompanied by headlines like those above – that suggest Gandhi had an intimate relationship with German-Jewish bodybuilder Hermann Kallenbach.
It's a scandalous implication anywhere, but especially in India where Gandhi is revered as a national hero, saint, and father of India's independence – and where homosexuality still carries a stigma. Homosexuality was decriminalized recently in India, in 2009, but it remains a highly sensitive issue among the country's socially conservative masses.
And the suggestion Gandhi had a homosexual relationship has sparked outrage in India.
"The depiction about Mahatma Gandhi made by Joseph Lelyveld deserves to be despised," Narendra Modi, chief minister of Gujarat State, wrote on his blog. "This shall not be tolerated under any circumstance."
"Gandhiji was a respected leader and is known as the father of nation. He led the freedom movement of India. The government will initiate steps to ensure that the book is not published in the state," Maharashtra Industries Minister Narayan Rane told the Legislative Council today.
"It has become a fashion to tarnish the image of great Indian leaders for self publicity and sale of books," said Sanjay Dutt, spokesman for the ruling Congress Party in Maharashtra, according to the Associated Press. "The government should invoke a law to severely punish anyone who tarnishes the image of the father of the nation."
But Mr. Lelyveld insists the only tarnishing happening is by headline-seeking reviewers unfairly portraying his book.
In the Wall Street Journal, conservative historian Andrew Roberts writes, "'Great Soul' also obligingly gives readers more than enough information to discern that [Gandhi] was a sexual weirdo, a political incompetent and a fanatical faddist – one who was often downright cruel to those around him."
For his part, former New York Times reporter and Pulitzer Prize winner Joseph Lelyveld says the reviews distorted his book.
"I do not allege that Gandhi is racist or bisexual," Mr. Lelyveld said in a statement. "The word 'bisexual' nowhere appears in the book." He goes on to tell the Times of India, "The aim of 'Great Soul' is to sift the evidence and facts of Gandhi's life and discuss them in a careful, responsible and balanced way."
In fact, Lelyveld isn't the first to explore Gandhi's sexuality. Psychoanalyst Sudhir Kakar researched Gandhi's sexuality in "Intimate Relations: Exploring Indian Sexuality," and later in "Mira and Mahatma." Though he hasn't yet read the book, Mr. Kakar told the Times of India that he "never discovered anything that the reviewers claim the book consists of."
Regardless of the claims about Gandhi's sexuality, the real loss if for Indians, many of whom, thanks to a few irresponsible reviews and headlines and their leaders' overeager censoring, won't be able to read a careful, nuanced portrait of their national hero and the father of their independence.
In spite of some potentially reckless reviews, many Indians are taking the higher road.
Ranjit Hoskote, a writer and general secretary of PEN India, which campaigns for freedom of expression, criticized the ban and said the media had misconstrued both Lelyveld's intentions and the nature of Gandhi's relationship with Kallenbach.
"You can't cite a worse example of third hand reportage and comment," he told the Associated Press. "How can you ban a book you haven't read?"
Even Gandhi's grandson, Rajmohan, weighed in. He dismissed the implications about Gandhi's sexual life and rejected calls for a ban, calling it "wrong from every point of view, and doubly so in the light of Gandhi's commitment to freedom of speech."
"We need not mind the Lelyveld book," he wrote in the Hindustan Times.
A response Gandhi would be proud of.

Ott. + All-Seeing I (live band) perform at Juke Joint for Valentine's Day
Emerging from the English cultural revolution of the late 1980's comes Ott., a multifarious DJ artist, whose organic dub creations are equally balanced takes on the celestial and earthbound His sonic soundscapes are a treasure chest of world rhythms, synthesizers and drum machines. A progressively interconnected combination of instrumentation and bass-heavy beats that takes chill-out to a whole other level.

The struggle within companies between their software and hardware business can lead to interesting co-opetition, and sometimes disaster. (A most extreme example being Sony's ignominious fall from the top the portable music device heap as a result of its reluctance to disturb its music production arm's legacy business). IBM, of course, is probably the canonical example, with its various partnerships with Microsoft ending up not only with Microsoft on top, but with its own PC hardware business suffering a long decline into oblivion as a result. Big Blue, presumably trying to avoid a replay, has entered into software licensing agreements with, among others, arch-rival Sun. Now, it seems they're backing off on plans to offer Solaris support for GPFS, their shared disk cluster file system.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
This article is part of a series on Israel's upcoming early election and the parties taking part in it. To learn more about Israel's political scene, visit our topic page on Election 2013
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has again managed to pull a pre-election surprise by merging his Likud Party with Avigdor Lieberman's Israel Beiteinu Party ahead of the January poll.
Israel Beiteinu is currently the third largest faction in Israel's Knesset, and has been the linchpin in Netanyahu's coalition since the last election in 2009, making Lieberman something of a "king-maker."
In a press conference held last Thursday, both Netanyahu and Lieberman said the merger would "strengthen the government, strengthen the prime minister, and strengthen the country" at a time when Israel is dealing with serious threats and domestic issues.
Netanyahu and Lieberman see largely eye-to-eye on the Iran nuclear threat, the faltering peace process with the Palestinians, and the implementation of more free market capitalist reforms to Israel's traditionally socialist economic system.
The alliance is also one of convenience for both leaders. Newly formed and revitalized left-wing parties are looking to pose a serious challenge to Netanyahu in the upcoming early election, and the combination of Israel Beiteinu's seats with those of the Likud will almost guarantee that he remains head of the Knesset's largest faction.
Lieberman, too, stands to gain much, with analysts agreed that Israel Beiteinu has likely seen its heyday, and would lose a number of mandates to centrist and left-wing parties that are currently on the upswing.
That being said, Lieberman remains popular among right-wing voters, and with a large number of Israel's immigrants from Russia. As part of the merger agreement, he will remain Israel's foreign minister in any future Netanyahu-led government.
Understandably, Israel's left-wing parties were furious over the news, with some going so far as to call the Netanyahu-Lieberman alliance a "fascist union."
Also uneasy over the merger were ultra-Orthodox parties like Shas. Lieberman has been at the forefront of several efforts to force Israel's ultra-Orthodox community to be a more productive segment of society, in particular by being drafted into the army. With Likud and Israel Beiteinu split, the religious factions were able to muster enough influence to resist such efforts.

Ed Murray, Mayor
SUBJECT: City Attorney thanks jury for verdict in favor of SPD
Kimberly Mills (206) 684-8602
City Attorney Pete Holmes on Friday thanked a King County Superior Court jury for deciding in the City's favor in a multimillion-dollar lawsuit that alleged negligence by Seattle police in connection with a 2006 car crash near Seward Park that gravely injured a teenager.
The verdict for the City came after the jury deliberated about three hours at the conclusion of a 16-day trial before Judge Jeffrey Ramsdell.
At the time of the accident on May 18, 2006, Channary Hor, 16, was a passenger in a car driven by Omar Tammam. The car was in the Seward Park parking lot after closing hours when Seattle police officers on routine patrol stopped to investigate. After one officer tapped on the window of the Cadillac Seville with a flashlight, Tamman put the car in reverse and sped out of the lot, with police following at a safe distance. Tammam, who had outstanding felony warrants, crashed the car into a rock retaining wall nearby -- within about 45 seconds of leaving the park. He fled the scene, with Hor trapped inside the car. The accident left her a quadriplegic.
The case turned on whether the two police officers had engaged in a negligent pursuit of the Cadillac. Tammam pleaded guilty to vehicular assault and felony hit and run. He did not respond to a summons to appear at the trial; on Friday, the jury assessed Tammam's responsibility at $17.4 million.
At trial, the City called the accident a "tragic occurrence" that was solely Tammam's doing. "Omar Tammam's criminal acts were the sole cause of the crash that injured Ms. Hor," the City said in briefing.
Holmes praised the City's trial team, composed of Torts attorney Rebecca Boatright and outside counsel Bob Christie. Christie's firm was one of three selected to represent the City in police action cases after Holmes terminated the exclusive contract with Stafford Frey Buck in 2010.

Skip to comments.The Fascist Boogie Fever (Rise of Golden Dawn (Nazi Greece)
Posted on 05/13/2012 3:02:01 PM PDT by Whenifhow
All hail, or should we say heil, the rise of the Golden Dawn fascists in Greece. Its all the rage (literally) in the streets of Greece these days. They now hold 21 seats in the Greek government about 7% of the controlling body and combined with the Communists, that control is closer to 20%. And their influence is not only growing there, but in Europe and the US. The darkness is rising once again and the Golden Dawn is telling those in power they should fear them now and indeed, they should take those threats to heart. Golden Dawn is demanding the respect of the Greek people and, with their violent stance, they may enforce it.
From The Blaze:
Golden Dawn leader Nikolaos Michaloliakos told The Associated Press in an interview that his party had delivered a blow against the countrys corrupt leadership.
They slandered us, slung mud at us, and shut us out of all the news media the TV channels of the corrupt elite and we beat them, the 55-year-old leader said as the votes came in. The day of national revolution by the Greeks has begun against those who are selling us out and looting the sweat of the Greek people.
History is repeating and a new horror is spreading its wings across the globe and few seem to be taking note of it. France just elected a Socialist leader (actually hes a Communist; you say potato ) and Islamic fascism via The Muslim Brotherhood and al Qaeda is sweeping the Middle East. Look at history: Hitler and Islam joined hands in a Kumbaya moment of sociopathic murderous glee to slaughter the Jews last time and you are seeing the exact same moves today. Once again, America sits quietly by as the vilest of coalitions forms to engulf humanity while Satan laughs with delight. Iran is doing the nuclear bump as its evil imp of a leader boldly proclaims that war is not needed to defeat Israel. No cutting ties and dirty looks should do the trick. Okay, you can stop choking with laughter now. Ahmadinejad is the ultimate trickster I firmly believe he wants to nuke Israel into the afterlife and you are nuts if you cant see that. We are on his enemies list as well right at the top of it actually, with Israel a close second. A well placed EMP or two should take care of the US in the imps viewpoint and he may well be right. Millions would die in the aftermath of one second after.
America is not immune to the spread of Golden Dawns platform. Certainly, if Obama is reelected we will see it spread. Of course, the name will be different, but the sulfuric stench will be the same. If Romney is elected and then does not follow the will of the people in America, which is a conservative bent by the majority, and goes back to bailouts and stimulus games, you will see the rise of nationalism here as well and that is poison. We dare not go down that road. History shows we could easily do so. There were pro-Hitler movements here in the US the last time this rose from the depths of Hell. Look it up.
The Blaze explains the scenario that could unfold:
Beck explained that the situation in Greece was likely a direct result of something he calls the Bubba effect. To refresh your memory on what this theory entails, envision a scenario where, in the wake of an Islamic terror attack and subsequent government ineptitude particularly as regards national security and immigration an everyman, or, Bubba, pushed to the brink, shoots someone who appears to be Muslim. Citizens rally to Bubbas defense, blaming the government, not the murderer, for causing the problem in the first place. When citizens frustration with government reaches critical mass, a contingent can all too easily use that as an excuse to lash out. As we examine the situation in Greece below, it seems the Bubba effect may have already arrived.
One component leading to the unrest across the eurozone has been the enactment of austerity measures. Billed as an answer to the European sovereign debt crisis, austerity measures focus on achieving reduced levels of spending primarily through cutting public services and programs. This is done so that taxes need not increase to compensate for deficits. Needless to say, whenever public and social services are cut, those who champion said programs, particularly on the left, are bound to pose strong resistance. Such has been the case across europe, specifically Greece. With the exit of Sarkozy, German Chancellor Angela Merkel is perhaps the only pro-austerity leader left in Europe.
I never thought I would see this happen in my lifetime. It blindsided me and takes my breath away. When I face the evil developing, it causes me to cringe from within and begs me to turn away. I will not and I pray that America and the world will not either. The only way to beat back the darkness is to face it head on and fight with every bit of strength you have physically and in your soul. Death is not the worst thing that can happen to you. History is calling us which side will each of us choose? I choose the light and will fight to my last breath defending Israel and what is good and right. My course is set, but the worlds is still very much in question. It has taken the world only 70 years to forget the last time we danced with this demon. Shame on us.
Listen to the hardline rhetoric of Greeces Golden Dawn leader, Nikolaos Michaloliakos. Anti-immigration, isolation, nationalism spouted with ear-assailing passion and vehemence. Remind you of anyone? All fanatical, charismatic psychopaths share certain traits loud proclamations, soul-stirring speeches and gut wrenching inclusions meant to ensnare the soul and trap the individual with twisted, seductive language where up is down, wrong is right, death is life.
More is to be gleaned from The Blaze the only one I know of thats exposing this spreading cancer:
Vowing to rid this country of the stench a.k.a. immigrants Golden Dawns insignia is entirely too reminiscent of the swastika and its adherents, reportedly clad in black, are often seen physically abusing and intimidating immigrants across the country. Needless to say, Greeces immigrant community is understandably concerned and opponents are preoccupied with how best to marginalize the Neo-Nazi group that has now gained legitimacy in the halls of government.
Michaloliakos, who is also no fan of the media, said the day of national revolution by the Greeks has begun against those who are selling us out and looting the sweat of the Greek people.
It might also be worth noting that Golden Dawn takes its name from a magical order of Freemasons who practiced in the late 19th and early 20th century Britain. The order has been cited one of the greatest influences on Western occultism.
The silence from the media and the world is deafening and beyond alarming. Israel sees what is happening. What happened to all of us who declared never again? Eternity beckons the world into darkness and we are too busy watching American Idol to care. Sigh.
It is true that the Nazis killed not only Jews and Gypsies, but Communists and Socialists. But in many ways, the Nazis shared common goals with the Communists. That is why they were killed their ideology competed with Hitlers vision. Particularly, their economic goals were similar.
From the TIME Magazine profile that named Adolf Hitler its 1934 Man of the Year:
Most cruel joke of all, however, has been played by Hitler & Co. on those German capitalists and small businessmen who once backed National Socialism as a means of saving Germanys bourgeois economic structure from radicalism. The Nazi credo that the individual belongs to the state also applies to business. Some businesses have been confiscated outright, on other what amounts to a capital tax has been levied. Profits have been strictly controlled. Some idea of the increasing Governmental control and interference in business could be deduced from the fact that 80% of all building and 50% of all industrial orders in Germany originated last year with the Government. Hard-pressed for food- stuffs as well as funds, the Nazi regime has taken over large estates and in many instances collectivized agriculture, a procedure fundamentally similar to Russian Communism.
There was a direct correlation between poverty, the increase of unemployment and the rise of Nazism. Think it cant happen here? If we dont change our course, look in the mirror at Greece. She is our future on a larger, more deadly scale. It took only 30% to elect Hitler and put him in office with an iron-fisted control of the country.
The fascist boogie fever has hit Greece and is dancing its influence across the planet. Spreading antisemitism, hate and fear while dancing to the Nazi beat. Its literally to die for.

This is exactly what those riots and crap was leading to.
Golden dawn (and a couple others) have been climbing in Greece for at least a couple years. The current chaos is exactly what the nazis been waiting for.
And we have Obama telling EU to follow his lead.
Endgame of the "beneficial crisis" indeed.
. . . but only after all that bad stuff just happened. Just three years ago, the rhetoric was that we needed to follow the EUs lead, that Americans didnt appreciate Europes leading role in the world and (from Biden) that Brussels was the new capital of the free world. No noise in the media about that flip-flop, however.
And we have Obama telling EU to follow his lead
Reminds you of the Brown shirts..
Considering the price Greece paid in human suffering under the Nazis [one of, if not the, highest percentages of dead], this is just bizarre.
In "The Gathering Storm", Churchill called fascism the ugly stepchild of communism. Greece is stuck somewhere between the two. No hope there.
No it's not, if you think about it. The ONLY anti-immigrant party you can vote for is Golden Dawn. This is telling the so-called "conservative" party that they better get energetic about Islamic immigration, or else.
>The current chaos is exactly what the nazis been waiting for.<
Isn't it chaos, unemployment and poverty in Germany in the 30's that brought Hitler and Naziism to power?
I wonder who the scapegoats will be this time.
Yes, after all, they are "National" Socialists....just another weak sister of the hard LEFT.

"Chilling Video: Thousands of Neo-Nazis March Through Athens
Tens of thousands of neo-Nazis rallied in support of Greece's Golden Dawn party, in its largest demonstration of support"
By Rachel Hirshfeld
First Publish: 2/4/2013, 11:10 AM
SNIPPET: "Tens of thousands of neo-Nazis rallied in Athens in support of Greece's far-right Golden Dawn party, in the movement's largest demonstration of support since its rise to power in last Junes general election.
Men dressed in military uniforms, holding torches, donning swastikas and chanting anti-immigrant slogans, marched through central Athens in what was reportedly a memorial event paying tribute to the partys fallen soldiers, The International Business Times reported."
SNIPPET: "The party, which has become notorious for its blatant anti-Semitic and xenophobic rhetoric and has been responsible for perpetrating attacks on Jews and foreigners, has begun spreading its anti-immigration message in schools and youth clubs, as well as through online social media networks, according to recent reports in the international press."

Justin Timberlakes Shriners Tournament, Blixt & Moore Tied at the Top October 06 2012
Jonas Blixt of Sweden is tied at the top of the leaderboard after two rounds at Justin Timberlakes, Shriners Hospitals for Children Open, at TPC Summerlin, Las Vegas, Nevada. Jonas has produced two very steady rounds of -7 under par 64 and a tournament total of -14 under par. He shares the lead with Brendon de Jong from Zimbabwe, Brendon followed his opening round of -9 under par 62, with second round -5 and 66 for his -14 under par total. Jonas thinks that having his family and some overseas friends with him this week, has helped him to relax and not think too much about playing golf; "I think it's a lot of things that make me play well this week. I got my family in town, my brother and my sister, a couple friends from overseas, which makes it really relaxed. We're renting a house together and just having a good time. I don't think about golf at all coming off the golf course. Just hang out with them. It's easy to think about something else when you're in Las Vegas, right. I've been working a lot on my ball-striking the last few weeks when I've been off, it's not really there yet, but I got a hot putter and it's been helping me out a lot the last two days." Just one shot behind them is first round leader Ryan Moore who had an amazing first round of -10 under par, 61. Ryan followed that with a modest -3 under pa, 68, for his -13 under par total. Ryan is very happy with his position after two days; "It was a good, solid round, I definitely would have liked to have seen a few more of those putts drop. But I hit good putts all day. They were just burning the edges, lipping out. All in all, I like my position going into the weekend." The combination of desert air and altitude in Las Vegas helps the ball fly through the air more easily, there are 82 players that have averaged 300 or more yards per drive. That sort of distance off the tee for these professionals makes TPC Summerlin a breeze for quality players, the top scores are testament to that. Major winner John Daly had eight birdies, an eagle and two bogeys to match the best round of the day, John said of his round today; "Today, I hit the ball really well and I putted good the last two days, which is good for me. The greens are rolling really good, so it gives you an opportunity. If you hit it decent, you can make some putts. But on any tour it's just putting. If you make some putts you can play really well. This course gives you a lot more opportunities than most courses."
