Hounds race to Norman Hardy Cup final! | Reserves demolish Luccombe Garage by Dunc, 20th Mar 2010
The now once-yearly, only-if-we-win-a-semi-final, McMahon Sports match report is now up!
Hounds 2 – 0 Torpedo
Sporting Greyhounds have reached their second final in two years with victory over Torpedo in the Norman Hardy cup semi-final on Downs Pitch # 3. A brace from striker Matt Little sealed the win that gives the Hounds another shot at their first trophy under the stewardship of Player Manager James Ford. Preparations for the game were questioned when several of the Hounds squad turned up showing the effects of last night's alcohol consumption, indeed Ali Wiles had to expunge several units of this alcohol pre-kick off, although he did have the decency to walk off the pitch first. He assured the management he was ready and raring to go and that was the first time he had done that since January.
Both teams showed an attacking intent in the early minutes of the game, with play switching quickly from end to end, indeed the Torpedo team appeared to settle into their game quicker than the Hounds, but the reliable back line and safe hands of 'keeper Graeme were not truly tested, restricting Torpedo to speculative efforts from range. The Hounds goal was most severely tested by a flying clearance from full back Cook, the ball slicing wildly off his boot to land behind for a corner. "That could have gone anywhere" he said to the now slightly less pale Wiles. The other full back McMahon was having an uncomfortable time as well, clearly regretting the nth, nth+1 and nth+2 pint consumed after the beer festival. This was somewhat out of character for the Young McMahon, recently appointed Hounds nutritionist, known for his sporting dietary and nutrition expertise. However, the famed Hounds team spirit was alive and well and saw the players through the early minutes.
The Hounds were dealt a cruel blow with 10 minutes on the clock when Captain Braveheart himself appeared to be felled by a long range sniper when attempting to head a long clearance; Ford fell prone and immediately clutched his hamstring. "It's gone" he said "I'm off". Neil "n_MAN" Roberts was brought on as a replacement and quickly adjusted to the pace of the game. The change did not disrupt the rhythm of the Hounds play, and as the half played on they became more comfortable on the ball. On the twenty minute mark, McMahon removed all effects of last night's excesses when he latched on to a loose ball mid way into the Torpedo half, a neat one two was played with Harvo, that left McMahon free on the edge of the Torpedo area. A low cross-shot was deflected into Matt Little's path who neatly finished past the hapless Torpedo 'keeper, ticket to the raffle bought and prize claimed. The goal was just reward for the effort the Hounds had put into the first half, defending into a strong breeze in ever deteriorating weather conditions. Indeed the lead could have been doubled when an excellent set piece caused havoc in the Torpedo defence, only for the header to be put harmlessly wide. There was a moment of controversy just on the stroke of half time as Cook hauled down a Torpedo player on the half way line with little attempt to play the ball, several Torpedo players surrounded the referee claiming the foul deserved a booking. "That was cynical ref" I heard one say, but we don't like to see people get booked, and the referee's better judgement let Cook off with just a stern talking to. It is unclear if the subject of the talking to was the tackle or the shocking bright yellow boots that Cook decided to buy with his own money, and apparently was not forced to wear as punishment for a bet he lost.
At half-time the Hounds held a deserved lead, defending well and denying Torpedo the opportunity to make the most of the conditions. The lead was deservedly doubled on 55 minutes, when a McMahon free kick was met by the head of Matt Little, his effort looped perfectly into the net beyond the despairing 'keeper. Torpedo made immediate substitutions to chase the game but this inevitably left space at the back, and it was the hounds that looked the more likely to score the next goal with the Torpedo keeper saving well from Matt Little and Si Cleave, the latter an excellent stop turning Cleave's goal bound effort onto the post. The Hounds defence stood strong and restricted Torpedo to long-range efforts and dealt well with the threat posed by the 'unit' that came on, all 6ft 10 of him. Torpedo created one excellent chance when the striker, not the unit, who was being marshalled excellently by the impressive McMahon, evaded his marker only to head high over the bar. The referee could not keep his cards in his pocket for the whole game though as Chequer's late tackle on the Torpedo full back earned him his second yellow of the season, becoming the first Hounds player to make it to 20 bookings.
A further change was inflicted on the Hounds when Si Cleave received a high boot to the face, resulting in a nasty cut needing several stitches, Herbert his replacement nearly had an immediate impact, heading just wide after excellent work from Little in the Torpedo area. That save was one of a string of excellent stops made by the Torpedo 'keeper, winning him a deserved Man of the Match award, a clear sign of the dominance the Hounds had in the game and the number of chances created.
The last minutes of the game were played out and the clean sheet and victory ensured with an excellent last ditch block from McMahon which epitomised the determination shown by the whole team. "That block from Mc Mahon at the end epitomised the determination shown by the whole team" said Ford at the end of the game, "We're delighted to be in the final, after coming so close last season, hopefully we can go on and win a trophy this year, the fans were magnificent again today, and we'd like to reward them with a victory in the final." Ford was full of praise for his team but singled out Little for particular praise. "I have to say the whole team were superb today, but I do need to single Matt Little out as he scored two goals for us and his overall work rate was excellent, he was playing sweeper at one point in the second half, he was everywhere, it will be very interesting to see his pro zone match analysis of his ball touches, as I reckon he covered every blade of grass and clump of mud out there today. Matt was clearly pleased with the way he played today and he deserved his goals, you can see on the replays he really enjoyed them; just look at his, just look at his face."
The Hounds will hope to keep all their players fit and available for the big game in 6 weeks time, Torpedo will hope that striker Eric resurfaces soon as he has not been seen since the first minute of the match amidst rumours he was so comfortable in Tickner's back pocket he decided to take up permanent residence there.
Retired striker and Hounds Chairman Dan Kanaris was on hand to offer his congratulations to the team. "Congratulations team, well done" he said. There were rumours that Kanaris had come out of retirement for the Reserves match against Luccombe Garage on Saturday, although the team scored 6 without reply, the absence of Kanarisis' name from the team sheet suggested he thought better of dusting off the boots and is now confined permanently to his behind-the-scenes desk job for the Hounds. Lyons continued his hot streak and bagged a hatrick for the team, Gerring (2) and Fletcher completed the scoring in a comfortable win for the Hounds Reserves that keeps the pressure on the leaders in Downs Division 3.
Tickets for the final are already selling fast with die hard Hounds fans delighted to be involved in the show piece event in the Downs season. Season Ticket Holder Jimmy Daniels was delighted to get his hands on a ticket. "I'm delighted to get my hands on a ticket, it's another great achievement for the Hounds, we had the GFA Cup final last year, and the Downs cup this year, we just hope the boys go on and win it." The final of the Norman Hardy Cup will be between Sporting Greyhounds and Sneyd Park on the 8th May on Downs Pitch # 3.

Physiotherapists in Caldicot treat many different issues including the condition profiled below.
Disc Nutrition and Posture
The supply of nutritional substances to the inner parts of the discs is in general poor and a lack of this supply is connected with degenerative disc changes. Large differences in the compression forces inside an intervertebral disc can be generated by relatively small changes in posture. These changes have correspondingly large effects on fluid flow out of and into discs and on diffusion of metabolic agents into the disc. The effectiveness of the transport of these materials depends on how far they have to travel from the nearest blood vessel which is usually in the vertebral endplate (top or bottom of the disc).
When bending, the back of the disc walls is stretched and the fronts are compressed, with stretching making the wall thinner and therefore more easily crossed by nutrients. This brings more food supply into the central area of the rear of the disc, the area which receives least nutrition. Compression from movement also squeezes water from the disc and as it returns when the pressure is relieved the incoming water brings nutrients along with it. Changes from a lordosis to a flexed position regularly increase the fluid flow in and out of the disc, encouraging the transport of nutrients.

Basketball Australia
Basic basic shots include the one-hand set shot, free throw, jump shot, three-point shot, hook shot, lay-up, and runner. The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame is home to more than three hundred inductees and more than 40,000 square feet of basketball history. When you are jumping you should be looking towards the basket and waiting for a ball to bounce, while concentrating on the ball you should also be pushing the opponent out of the key. Dunk Hoops (a.k.a. Dunk Ball) is a variation of the game of basketball, played on basketball hoops with lowered (under basketball regulation 10 feet) rims. The classic design and size options make this versatile shelf organizer a go-to basket for all your needs.
There are principal basketball sports with variations on basketball including Wheelchair basketball , Water basketball , Beach basketball , Slamball , Streetball and Unicycle basketball. It also makes the perfect living room storage basket for large shelfs, the floor next to the sofa, or anywhere else you need a decorative storage bin without taking up too much space.
Whether for everyday occasions like birthday gift baskets or to welcome a new baby, or once a year holidays like holiday & Christmas gift baskets your recipient is sure to love your thoughtful gift. Find baskets that are more than just storage space – add a unique flair to any space in your home, from World Market's famous selection. In case that the company doesn't sell those baskets anymore, proceed to the next way. The first pro league, the National Basketball League, was formed in 1898 to protect players from exploitation and to promote a less rough game. If the ball is shot from behind the three-point line, the basket is worth three points – shots from on or inside this line are worth two points.
The first men's national championship tournament, the National Association of Intercollegiate Basketball tournament, which still exists as the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) tournament , was organized in 1937. Designed to fit under a console table, this pole handle basket is narrow from front to back. To make your data ultimately safe, you can easily backup and restore your entire basket collection.
The ball may be advanced toward the basket by being shot, passed between players, thrown, tapped, rolled or dribbled (bouncing the ball while running). It is vital to start and finish your shot with your shooting hand facing the basket (behind the ball). These infractions result in one or two free throws, which may be taken by any of the five players on the court at the time. To start this box formation play, #1 is at mid-court with the ball, and #2-5 are positioned in a box in the free throw lane, with #4 and #5 at the free throw line and #2 and #3 closer to the basket. Bear in mind that you may not want to buy the gift basket until after the baby is born though. Send to a college student or as a corporate Christmas gift basket for fast delivery.

Happy 78th Birthday Warren Beatty
As an actor, producer, director and all-around creative force in Hollywood, Warren Beatty is justly celebrated, but probably not enough. BONNIE & CLYDE, for instance, which more than any other movie, kicked off the New Hollywood era, would probably have been a dreadful, forgettable formula picture without his work as producer and star. What other movie stars used their onscreen clout with such formidable leverage?
Once BONNIE & CLYDE became a hit - which took a while, actually, but that's a different story - Beatty had the kind of power that always matters in Hollywood, the power to draw young, hip audiences. His next 20 years are unmatched in terms of number of great films. Beatty has excellent taste in stories and collaborators and it shows.
Consider the following films that Beatty made as a producer or director - or
made because he had box office power and used it:
Robert Altman's brilliant, wholly uncommercial McCABE & MRS. MILLER, Alan Pakula's definitive story of conspiracy paranoia THE PARALLAX VIEW, Hal Ashby and Robert Towne's immortal SHAMPOO, the terrific, fun HEAVEN CAN WAIT, written by Beatty and Elaine May, the still too-little seen major epic REDS - which deserves to be considered one of the greatest films ever made, and Elaine May's still underrated (but appreciating in reputation every year) comic fandango ISHTAR.
In celebration of Beatty the screen performer, enjoy these wardrobe tests for BONNIE & CLYDE. It's 7 and a half minutes of Beatty making faces, putting on hats, taking off hats and squinting. Happy birthday!

Many areas of the UK have hard water. This ranges from dealing with scum and scale to a raging a constant battle with bad tasting water, broken kitchen appliances, and rising fuel bills. We have found by carrying out water tests around the country that some areas are much worse affected than others with hard water and the resulting issues. When it comes to water hardness, the M4 corridor is particularly bad. This includes London, Reading through Swindon, Bath, and Bristol. The home counties including Kent, Surrey, Hertfordshire, and Berkshire are some of the worst hard water areas in England too.

Vintage Apple personal computers poster circa 1980
This is an early Apple dealer poster that was displayed by a re-seller in Baltimore. It has been around the block but would still be an almost acceptable addition to most Apple collections as a mint version is quite expensive and hard to find. It has lots of edge wear, scratches, a few creases top and bottom and has been applied to a foam core backing in a less than professional manner with lots of bubbles. It measures 24" x 36" and the text is "personal computers apple" with a copyright of 1980. In the lower left corner is MSR# M30-0580 50K.
Prior to the first Macintosh and the switch to the Garamond font, Apple used a typeface called Motter Tektura alongside the Apple logo, and the bite was designed to fit the curve of the letter "a". This poster shows a large bitten rainbow apple logo that was in use from 1976 to 1998. It is flawed so it is priced at only $35 with postage at cost in a large flat cardboard sleeve. Postage will add a fair bit due to size as it can not be folded, so you might want to include other posters to bring the unit price down - click the poster label below.

Posted by hipsterhorcrux on 16th Jan 2014
I originally bought this kit just because I wanted the pattern, but the yarn that came with it seems to be high quality and both colors are very nice looking. I haven't started the project yet, but I'm looking forward to it.
The one reason that I gave the kit four stars instead of five is that it would have been nice to have the pattern printed on higher quality paper, or at least included in a somewhat rigid envelope so that it wasn't all bent and folded when I got it--I would even be happy with an electronic copy that I could print myself.
One final suggestion that I didn't factor into my star rating, is that I would love if the house mottos were included in the design somehow; I realize that it would be hard to squeeze everything in there, but I would love to see more Game of Thrones-themed patterns, especially ones that include house mottos as well as sigils.

OCR homepage
Today sees the launch of two exciting online opportunities for teachers to make their voices heard on the future of A Levels.
The Great A Level Debate, in which teachers can contribute their comments on all aspects of A Levels, kicks off on the TES website today.
OCR believes that the views of teachers, the professionals delivering qualifications and assessments in the classroom, are vital to getting A Levels right. We want to engage with as many teachers as possible from different schools and different parts of the UK. An online forum which attracts thousands of teachers a day is one of the most effective ways of doing this. Staff from OCR will be responding to the debate by posting comments and sharing ideas, including draft specifications, in the months ahead.
A second channel for teachers to express their views on A Levels is the TES/OCR survey. Take part in our short survey and we will submit the results to the Ofqual consultation on A Levels which starts in mid June.
The timetable for developing new A Levels is tight, following the announcement by Education Secretary Michael Gove in April that new A Level qualifications in core subjects will be in schools in September 2013, for first teaching from September 2014. The Education Secretary also signalled that Higher Education should play a major role in the design of the next generation of A Levels. OCR, itself part of Cambridge University, has been widely consulting with representatives from across HE via its subject forums and strategy groups. The views of HE are essential but so are the views of the teaching community.
Mark Dawe, OCR Chief Executive, said: "We want as many teachers as possible to tell us what they think about A Levels, so please get involved. It's teachers who live and breathe these qualifications. We look forward to hearing your ideas and suggestions which will inform our work and feed into the development process."

Intensive Moisturising
Eucerin Intensive 10% w/w Urea Treatment Cream is formulated with urea, which is a moisturiser naturally present in healthy skin. In many dry skin conditions the skin's natural urea levels are decreased which leads to further moisture loss.
Eucerin Intensive 10% w/w Urea Treayment Cream also contains natural lipids, which along with Urea, can help maintain the skin's natural moisture balance, keeping it smooth and supple. The formulation forms a fine protective layer on the skin preventing further moisture loss.

Winner of the Randolph Caldecott Medal and the Coretta Scott King Illustrator Award
Jean-Michel Basquiat and his unique, collage-style paintings rocketed to fame in the 1980s as a cultural phenomenon unlike anything the art world had ever seen. But before that, he was a little boy who saw art everywhere: in poetry books and museums, in games and in the words that we speak, and in the pulsing energy of New York City. Now, award-winning illustrator Javaka Steptoe's vivid text and bold artwork echoing Basquiat's own introduce young readers to the powerful message that art doesn't always have to be neat or clean—and definitely not inside the lines—to be beautiful.

Attempt These Tips To Improve Your Physical FitnessMany people say they would like to get into better shape, but never take the steps to improve their fitness. Like anything else, you need to have the right education to improve your personal fitness and get into better shape. This article contains a number of tips on how to improve your fitness and get into shape.
When selecting a fitness routine, don't fall for gimmicks that say you can lose weight or build muscle without needing to work hard. The whole point of a fitness program is to work hard. Pick a workout routine that fits with your schedule and is difficult enough to challenge you without resulting in injury.
To stay fit, forget the phrase, "No pain, no gain!" This phrase is absolutely untrue! If you do a workout that causes you to suffer, you will be highly unlikely to continue to do it consistently. Instead of choosing exercise routines and forms of exercise that cause you distress, choose activities that you enjoy and want to do. Consistency is far more important in pursuing, attaining, and maintaining fitness than intensity.
Stretches should be performed before you begin your exercise and afterwards to cool the muscle from intense performance. When stretching, it is best to hold a position for 15 to 30 seconds and try not to bounce during the hold. Bouncing will force the muscle to hit a tendon or body part unnecessarily and may cause injury.
To become more fit, you need only put one foot in front of the other. Walking is an excellent way to improve your aerobic fitness level. You will get your heart pumping, and muscles working. You can start small, walking a little bit more every day. Your body will adapt, and soon you will be able to walk miles and miles.
Remember that your fitness needs change as you age, especially regarding flexibility. When you reach middle age, you need to devote even more time to stretching before and after your workout. http://www.bodyandsoul.com.au/beauty/body/5-reasons-your-skin-loves-ginger-/news-story/675ec74b4b19495a492c8b52594e32f7 helps keep your muscles pliable and prevents cramping after workouts as well as helping reduce the risk of injury.
While working out, always decrease the weight by approximately ten percent, when you adjust your grip. For example, if you just finished a set of bench presses doing 200 pounds with a medium grip, you should drop to 180 pounds when switching to a narrow or wide grip. When you switch grips, you are stressing the joints in a different way than you have become accustomed to, which can cause you to get injured.
Hiking is a great way to stay fit without having to spend a day at the gym. A state park is a great place to hike, sinc most of them have well groomed, predesignated trails. Not only will you get a cardiovascular workout, but there's a good chance you will also take in some spectacular views.
Pull mouse click the up coming webpage down when you are doing chin-ups! Proper exercise technique can be tremendously enhanced with visualization. When you are completing chin-ups it helps to think in terms of pulling your elbows down rather than pulling your body up! You'll be able to complete more pull ups using better form.
When lifting weights, it is important to watch the clock. Don't do heavy weight lifting for more then one hour. If you go longer, your body will produce more cortisol, which has testosterone-blocking effect. This can make it so that you are wasting your muscles instead of building them.
Pay attention to the equipment of the exercise club you choose. Make sure the equipment is well maintained, up-to-date, frequently sanitized and has enough space between each machine. Enough space ensures adequate personal area to exercise, while properly maintained equipment ensures accident free, safe training. Always check the equipment before you use it.
A great fitness tip is to make sure you're getting the full range of motion when you're lifting weights. You don't want to cheat yourself by only partially lifting weights. Getting the full range of motion will insure that you are getting the most out of your lifts
Fitness experts recommend doing slow and sustained stretches three to seven days per week. To learn how to perform stretches correctly without the worry of harming the muscle, you may consider hiring a professional trainer for a few sessions in the beginning of your fitness program to learn how to perform these stretches correctly. Oftentimes, if you join a gym, these sessions are offered free to members.
The older you are, the longer you should stretch. As you age, your muscles and ligaments become less pliable. To make sure you get the most from your stretches, check that you are holding them for long enough. If you are under the age of 40, 30 seconds should be enough. If you are over 40, try to hold the stretch for a full minute.
Don't just stretch prior to exercising, stretch the muscles you are working between repetitions too. By doing this simple task, studies have shown that you can increase your strength up to 20 percent! All you need is 20 to 30 seconds of stretching between sets. This is a quick and effective technique.
Fitness doesn't have to be a hard chore. The strategies in this article were designed to be easy to fit into your schedule and lifestyle. By planning your fitness regimen you can keep your body strong and healthy. Use the tips found here to get yourself into great shape.

BEIJING ― Weijian Shan, chief executive of the Hong Kong fund management firm PAG, says the global economy is dangerous for investors these days. Years of easy money from central banks have helped inflate the prices of just about everything an investor can buy, like stocks or property.
"I think that clearly we are in an asset bubble," Mr. Shan said in a phone interview from Hong Kong.
So what should investors do? Mr. Shan recommended a return to the basics. His firm, with $16 billion under management in funds that specialize in fields like private equity and real estate, is looking for value in areas still growing in a sluggish world economy.
"We are not chasing bubbles as many of our peers do," said Mr. Shan, a former professor at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. "I only want to look at the fundamentals. I want to know how much money this business makes."
In that, Mr. Shan is positioned well. PAG focuses mainly on investments in or related to Asia, where the fortunes of China, India and other countries remain buoyant even as the global economy sags.
"If you look around the world, Asia is where the growth is," he said.
Mr. Shan said that China, where he was born, "is the most interesting market because of its growth."
But that growth has declined. In the third quarter, China's gross domestic product rose 6.7 percent, in contrast with the 9 percent to 10 percent the country enjoyed for years. The downturn has intensified the struggles of what Mr. Shan called China's "bad economy" ― mainly manufacturing and heavy industries, which have too many factories and too much debt.
Mr. Shan, however, also sees a "good economy" in China. As the government tries to shift the country's engine of growth away from investing in steel mills and apartment blocks, it is encouraging more private consumption. That is opening opportunities in areas that cater to Chinese consumers.
"China has a split personality at this moment," Mr. Shan said. But "the good economy remains quite resilient in spite of the bad economy."
Mr. Shan, who once served as a senior partner at the investment firm TPG, is focusing his money on companies that can benefit from China's rising consumerism. In October, PAG's private-equity arm invested an undisclosed amount in the Paradise Group, based in Singapore, which operates restaurants across China and Southeast Asia.
单伟建曾在美国投资公司德克萨斯州太平洋投资集团(TPG)担任资深合伙人,他正把投资的重点集中到能够从中国不断增长的消费中受益的公司上来。今年10月,PAG的私募股权部门对新加坡的乐天餐饮集团(Paradise Group)投了一笔未披露的资金,该集团在中国和东南亚经营饭馆。
In August, it spent about $250 million to acquire Golden Apple, which runs a chain of private schools from Chengdu, China's western metropolis.
In its most prominent deal, PAG in April joined Apex Technology, a Chinese producer of ink cartridge components, and others in the acquisition of the printer maker Lexmark International, based in Kentucky, a transaction valued at $3.6 billion. The deal was appealing to PAG, in part because the new owners hope to raise the profile of Lexmark printers in the Chinese marketplace.
PAG最重要的一笔交易发生在今年4月,公司与中国墨盒组件生产商珠海艾派克科技(Apex Technology)及其他公司一起,收购了总部设在肯塔基州的打印机制造商利盟国际(Lexmark International),这笔交易的估价为36亿美元。这笔交易对PAG有吸引力,部分原因是公司的新股东希望提高利盟打印机在中国市场的地位。
Mr. Shan also wants to take advantage of some of Asia's bad economy. With debt levels continuing to rise in China, PAG is developing a strategy for buying and profiting from bad loans at Chinese banks. He also says his firm has generated good returns from buying distressed debt backed by real estate in the region. PAG, which has 30 percent of its capital in real estate, is still sniffing around for reasonably priced property as well.
"We invest in real estate where the price is not out of whack," he said.
"It is in times like this that you really can differentiate among investors who will be more focused on fundamentals," he said, "who invests along with the rest of the bandwagon."

Jadot's 2015 Beaune 1er Cru Celebration
I remember the first time I tasted Jadot's 2009 Beaune 1er Cru 150th Anniversary several years ago. An assemblage of numerous Beaune climats, the 150th Anniversary was incredibly expressive and flat-out delicious from the very beginning. Not surprisingly, Jadot subsequently decided to bottle the wine (now called Celebration) in top vintages. The 2015 is the latest release, and a worthy successor to both the 2012 and 2009.
Winemaker Frédéric Barnier opts for a longer period of élevage for the Beaune 1er Cru Celebration than he does for the other Jadot reds, which is why the Celebration is only being released now. Wines from the single climats are aged for about eighteen months. Some are bottled separately, while others go into various blends. In top vintages, Jadot releases a blend of the best climats as the Beaune 1er Cru Celebration, which is the present day successor to a wine Jadot first made to celebrate their 150th anniversary, as explained above. The Celebration lots spend eighteen months in barrel. Barnier creates the blend and then gives the wine a further six months in tank to allow all the components to meld together prior to bottling. Production is around 5,000 cases for the 2015.
The 2015, 2012 and 2009 vintages, along with a labeled magnum of the 2009 that lists the climats that went into that year's bottling
The 2015 Beaune 1er Cru Celebration is a rich, radiant wine. Sumptuous and expansive on the palate, the 2015 possesses striking inner perfume and fabulous depth. The flavors are dark, bold and incisive in this decidedly potent, somber Beaune 1er Cru from Jadot. Even with all of its natural richness, the 2015 is massively tannic and shut down. I wouldn't dream of opening a bottle anytime soon. The combination of 19 climats results in a Beaune of unusual complexity and pedigree, but readers will have to be patient. The 2015 was only bottled in December 2017. 93+/2030-2055. Jadot's 2012 Beaune 1er Cru Celebration is aromatically quite expressive, with lovely bright, floral notes that play off a core of red berry and stone fruits. The gracious, almost feminine, bouquet is alluring and suggests a wine that is quite open, but the palate sensation is completely different. Tiny yields and high skin to juice ratios yielded red Burgundies with huge tannic clout that obscures the fruit, which is exactly how the wine comes across in tasting. It will be interesting to see if the 2012 softens over time, or if it gains volume with aging. Today, it is decidedly on the austere side of things. 92/Drink 2024-2049. The 2009 Beaune 1er Cru 150th Anniversary is every bit as magical as it has always been. There is a translucence to the fruit that is just remarkable. That is the good news. The not so good news is that the 2009 remains very tightly wound and in need of further cellaring. The aromatics are just starting to open up, but the tannins remain quite fierce. Readers who own the 2009 should be prepared to cellar it for at least a few years. There is an effortlessness to the 2009 that is hard to describe, but that gives the wine its sense of impeccable balance. Hints of sweet pipe tobacco, cedar, dried herbs and cherry add the closing shades of aromatic nuance to this gorgeous, compelling Beaune from Jadot. The 2009 is a blend of 17 different sites. 94/Drink 2024-2059.

England bowlers show their magic after Broad and Trott play savioursPosted: Sunday, August 29, 2010 by Sanya Michelangelo in Labels: England, England cricket, England vs Pakistan, Jonathan Trott, Sanya Michelangelo, Stuart Broad
Day 2 and Day 3
England tumbled to 47/5 and later 102/7 before Broad and Trott shared a historic partnership. Records were broken as Broad and Trott put 332 for the 8th wicket. Stuart Broad played the hero as he broke his previous highest Test score of 67* and went on to make 169. He fell 4 runs short of Ian Smith's 173, the highest by a No.9 batsman. Chris Broad and Stuart Broad are the first father and son pair to hit a century for England in Tests. Broad and Trott surpassed the world record of the highest partnership for the 8th wicket, earlier held by Saqlain Mushtaq and Wasim Akram (313). Broad and Trott now hold the record for the highest partnership for any wicket, for England vs Pakistan. If someone would have told me before the Test that Stuart Broad is going to hit a century, I would have laughed out loud. Words are not enough to describe how stunning both of them were. It didn't seem like they can ever get out. Yes, we have seen 300-621 runs partnerships but so many wickets don't fall before and after the partnership. From Pakistan's point of view, it was terrible to let the opposition score 446 after having the match in their hands with England struggling at 102/7. In my post, Cook shines at Oval but not enough for England, I had criticised Trott and I've criticised Broad many times, including my post England look to finish series on a high as Ashes word war starts. And I stand by my comments, I do not think I was wrong. In my last post, I had praised Trott for being positive at the start of this innings but he was the culprit at Oval.
England bowlers (except Finn) especially Broad, usually don't bowl enough at the stumps but on Day 3, they were superb. 5 of the 10 wickets in the 1st innings of Pakistan were taken as lbw or bowled. All of them were impressive. James Anderson, Stuart Broad, Steven Finn, Graeme Swann fetched 1, 2, 3 and 4 wickets respectively. The controversies were endless. Salman Butt complained to the leg umpire about Finn (bowling at that time) and England's fielders chirping. But the umpire didn't intervene and the complaint didn't shut up England's fielders of Finn, who chirped on the very next ball. I think the aggression and chirping of a fast bowler are a part of the game and should not be discouraged. Umar Akmal complained about not being able to pick Finn as his hand went above the sidescreen. Later, Finn bowled Umar Akmal with a yorker. We have seen batsmen having a problem in picking Flintoff for the same reason. Notably, Kallis has been a victim of this, getting out lbw and bowled to Flintoff. Pakistan were very frustrated. England have unleashed the weakness of Mohd. Yousuf, who averages 52.95 in Tests. Yousuf got out in the same fashion in the 2nd innings at Oval, the 1st in this Test (bowled by Broad) and way back in the 2003 World Cup when Jimmy, then a youngster, just at the start of his career, bowled him with a full delivery. Jimmy did the same at Oval and bowled the same delivery to Yousuf when he first arrived at the crease in the 2nd innings in this Test. Yousuf survived it but did not last long.
In this Test, the review system actually helped to overturn the bad decisions of the on-field umpires. First, it saved Cook, which I mentioned in my last post. Then, Broad was out, lbw, way ahead but it struck him low, Pakistan reviewed and that's how the partnership was broken. Then, Amir was out off Finn in the 1st innings, on the second ball that Amir played, full toss, on his pads. England reviewed and it was given out, rightly so.
Pakistan finished Day 3 at 41/4 following on, after being all out for a modest 74. This is the third time in the series when they have been routed for less than a 100 runs. Pity. It may not make that much of a difference but Malik must replace Farhat. Even though rain almost washed Day 1, this Test will probably finish on Day 4.
Until next time, take care. Cheers!

The self-immolation of Mohammed Bouzaizi, a Tunisian fruit vendor, in the front of the Sidi Bouzid regional council ignited the most widespread demonstrations the Middle East has ever witnessed. During the months that followed demonstrators demanded an end to corrupt regimes through both peaceful and vio lent means. In Morocco, swift constitutional action suppressed protests. In Egypt, 18 days of protests led to the removal of President Hosni Mubarak and the National Democratic Party; the Party's office was soon replaced by a military regime. The protest events of 2011 and 2012 will continue to challenge Western perceptions of the Middle East. The demonstrations forced journalists and scholars to get past images of the Cold War mujahedeen, terrorist organizations, and the Iranian nuclear program. During the initial months of what some refer to as 'the Arab Spring,' reporters paraded around the idea that the Middle East was suddenly looking for a liberal democratic solution. They painted portraits of secular protestors trying to remove corrupt tyrants. Such portraits are misleading partial truths. Religion and social movements continue to be closely intertwined, in the Middle East as elsewhere. Devout Muslims across the Middle East are finding new ways to carry their beliefs, rituals, and practices over into social movement groups. The popular mobilization in the recent Arab Spring is an excellent opportunity to explore these new ways. The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between contemporary Islam and social movement mobilization. How is Islam being carried over into every function of a social movement organization? A new generation of protestors has emerged in the Middle East, but one thing is for certain: one fruit vendor's self-immolation, the fall of oppressive dictators, and over a year of demonstrations does not unravel the intimate relationship between Islam and the millions of devout Muslims living in the Middle East.

Best known for his geometric work done with automobile detailing vinyl tapes, Mauro Oliveira also creates three dimensional wall artworks that resemble floating sculptures, creatively incorporating objects such as color pencils, pens, water color tablets, paper clips, rubber bands, wax, metals or other everyday materials. All his artworks are covered in an immaculate and glossy resin finish.
A Brazilian born and mid child of 7 siblings, growing up in extreme poverty, creativity started early at age 10: he took advantage of the free tin piggy banks given by all the banks back then and invited and encouraged other kids to paint them with him in order to sell at a weekend art fair in Sao Paulo: 1000's were sold. He made it to college and won a student exchange program contest sponsored by the Federal University of Uberlândia, Brazil. He studied Journalism and the Arts and immigrated to the U.S. in 1990.
Oliveira, 50, lived half of his life in Brazil and the other half in the USA where he finally settled down in Los Angeles. He lived in 3 states in Brazil and in 3 states in America, having artworks exhibited in every city, including Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Miami, San Francisco, New York, San Diego, Palm Springs and Los Angeles.
His greatest influences are Pablo Picasso and Joan Miro. Oliveira studied Journalism and Arts in Brazil and immigrated to the USA in 1990. Having a full circle in his life, he is now a full-time artist and couldn't be happier.
Inspired by nature, colors and geometry, he makes sure that every piece has a story to tell and touches everyone in one way or another. Oliveira likes to believe that he created his own eclectic style, using materials never used before for art.

When you are camping as well as the weather is beginning to rise significantly, tale the coolers that you may have along with you and put them somewhere from the shade. It will also help to ensure they are engrossed in some sort of tarp. This can keep the temperature inside of the cooler from rising too much.
So many people are deterred from camping because they need to sleep on the ground, but there is no need to be uncomfortable whenever you go camping. Visit the neighborhood drug store and get some inexpensive pool floats. They are a lot more comfortable compared to ground to rest on, and may keep you high and dry too.
While it is not a good idea to be wasteful, be sure to bring more food and water than you believe you will need. You do not would like to get out intro the middle of the woods and run out of supplies. bringing more than sufficient will assure you may not run across this problem.

The Revel Body SOL Sonic Vibrator is personally one of my favourite new toys, and will probably become yours too. Read on to find out a few reasons why.
Now, as you may very well know, a vibrator allows the Dominant to tease all parts of the submissive's body with tantalizing vibrations. The nipple, tummy, thighs and clitoris can be teased and played with, all without the submissive knowing what is coming next.
The features of this vibrator include that the tube-shaped magnetic center can easily be popped out when you want to change one of the three pink-coloured tips, called Rose, Fawn and Ever. Each of the three tips is shaped differently, and creates a unique sensation as it touches the clitoris.
The vibrator's technology also reportedly reduces vibration to the hand by eighty percent — which is a GREAT thing — and the ergonomic shape makes it feel comfortable and easy to use.
Now for a few cautionary notes: Because the SOL Sonic Vibrator has very strong, active magnetic parts – it should NOT be used by anyone wearing pacemakers, metal or magnetic implants, or electromagnetic devices. You could also have some issues if you have metal piercings.
As far as maintenance, the SOL Sonic Vibrator is waterproof, making cleaning it easy. Made of silicone and is a non-porous toy, it can be cleaned with soap and water. The vibrator sits on a stand, which charges the lithium-powered battery, when not in use. If properly cared for, this vibrator could last for several years.
One more thing, the SOL Sonic Vibrator shouldn't be used near computers, cell phones, or credit cards — as it could wipe out all your information.
To find out more info on the SOL Sonic Vibrator, check out the Revel Body company website at revelbody.com.

I know that it seems counter intuitive for me to give a gift to the readers of the My Faith and Fitness Blog on our First Anniversary. Usually the gift giving is in the opposite direction on special occasions such as this. On this special occasion, I am giving my readers an ebook that I have written entitled, "My Faith and Fitness Devotional: 40 Days to Spiritual and Emotional Prosperity" for you to download, print and share. If you want to save a tree or two, you can download, save and share it electronically.
The inspiration for me to write this devotional occurred a few months after I began writing the My Faith and Fitness Blog. I began writing this devotional in August of 2012. However, other pressing assignments prevented me from giving my full attention to continuing my writing until March 2013. God's timing is perfect. The purpose of this devotional is to focus on the spiritual and emotional fitness that only God can provide.
The format of this devotional is clear. Each day, I present a concept, a scripture and a few paragraphs discussing the topic. I conclude by encouraging you take steps to secure emotional and spiritual prosperity for yourself. My desire is to encourage you on your Christian journey. We have so many forces in our lives that seek to tear us down and demoralize us. While you are taking good care of your physical self, I pray that the "My Faith and Fitness Devotional: 40 Days to Spiritual and Emotional Prosperity" will help the spiritual and emotional aspects of you prosper, as well. I pray that the entries in this devotional assist you while you engage in spiritual warfare. Please download, read and share. Freely you have received. Freely give. Be blessed.
