" Brand: Lush / Texture: Cream / Type: Face Cream / Suitable for: Face / Skin type: for all types "
I am a huge fan of Lush and nearly everything they sell is fantastic. One of the things that they sell that I'm not so keen on is their range of facial moisturisers. Their body moisturisers are nearly all great but with the facial ones I have never really had much luck with them.
The Enzymion facial moisturiser is made for oily skin and has ingredients which sound like they wold be lovely on my skin such as lemons, aloe vera, papaya, avocado oil and cocoa butter but my skin didn't really get on very well with this particular moisturiser.
I have oily skin which can get worse during my time of the month and when I'm stressed so I was hopeful that this would be light enough to stop my face getting greasy looking but rich enough that it would still moisturise it and leave it feeling soft and smooth.
I just didn't feel like this was good enough for oily skin. My skin never really felt like it was particularly matt while using this and I still got a lot of shine and grease at the end of the day. It actually felt a little rich for oily skin and it actually gave me spots while wearing it.
The one good thing about this is that it did soothe the dry bits of skin that I have but it's just a shame that it also left the other areas of skin still looking so greasy and shiny.
I wasn't a fan of the consistency either as it was really runny in comparison with the other moisturisers from lush that I've used. If it had come in a bottle I wouldn't really have minded this so much but being in the plastic tub it made it a little awkward to use.
It did smell absolutely gorgeous though and was lovely and lemony which was subtle but I could smell it coming from my skin for a few hours and I always found it to be a lovely clean and refreshing smell.
It is a shame that this is getting such a low score from me as I really wanted to like it but unfortunately on my skin it just didn't work and actually ended up making my skin more greasy than when I started.
This was one of the first products that I bought from Lush. I told the store assistant in Lush that I wanted something for oily skin and she recommend this.
The moisturiser comes in one of the standard Lush 45g pots. The pot has a screw on lid that secures the lid so that none of the product leaks out. This is a good thing as this moisturiser is VERY thin with a watery consistency. The best thing about the moisturiser is that it smells nice. I would describe the smell as quite fresh and fruity.
The moisturiser is easy to apply. I applied it with my fingertips and worked it into my skin. After five minutes my face still felt very wet but I thought i'd give it another half an hour or so to fully soak into my skin. Unfortunately this moisturiser doesn't actually soak into your skin, instead it just sits on top of the skin, making your facial skin appear shiny and more oily than ever. I was left feeling very frustrated. I was told that this is one of the best moisturisers for oily skin but it isn't!!!! My skin felt sticky and tacky all day after using this and it also clogs the pores. I gave the remainder of the pot away to a friend and she rang me a few days later to tell me she had a serious breakout of spots. Oh dear! I contacted Lush who told me to send the rest of the pot back to them and they sent me and my friend some free products to compensate for the bad experience that we had with the product.
I wouldn't recommend this, it's terrible! Unless you WANT oily and spotty skin... No? I thought not!
Having oily skin can be a nightmare. Your face never feels completely clean and if you wash your face too many times in a day, it causes your skin to produce more oils. No matter how much powder you apply, your face still looks greasy within a few hours again. Oily skin causes spots which is bad enough when you are a teenagers but totally unnecessary when you are a grown women.
Oily skin is caused when your sebaceous glands are overactive and they produce more oil than your skin actually needs. Grease oozes out of your enlarged pores and blackheads can be more prominent. The only advantage for us ladies with this nightmarish skin type is that apparently we will age slower because our skin never has the change to get dry!
At 28, I decided enough was enough and I went on a search to find something to help with my skin's situation. Having always been prone to spots, I am always anxious about putting new products on my face. I have been using Simple for years, just because it was fairly pure and moisturised my skin.
After explaining my dilemma to a lady in Lush, she recommended that I should try Enzymion. I should probably tell you now that this story does not have a happy ending. It is a brightening facial moisturiser which comes in a black tub and she told me that it would dry up my oily skin making it matte yet radiant. This cream is especially made for oily skin like mine and also helps to dry up and reduce the appearance of blemishes.
How does it work? Emzymion targets these oils which make your skin shiny and prone to spots, making the oils disappear. The cream contains Papaya which is an antioxidant and is enriched with enzymes which help to heal skin problems such as acne. The enzymes also act as a gentle exfoliant to soften and smooth the skin. The fruit has rejuvenating and restorative qualities which help to prevent any premature aging and reduces the wrinkles that you may already have, leaving the skin looking younger for longer. The Papaya also gives your skin nourishment as it contains Vitamin A and C. Because of these vitamins, the face cream encourages the formation of healthy new skin cells and promotes more elasticity.
The Organic Aloe Vera within the cream is there to absorb those pesky oils in a natural way. This ingredient also nourishes the skin with Vitamin E and C which helps to prevent premature aging. It has a calming effect on the skin, soothing dryness and any inflammation. It also helps to restore your skin's beauty by breaking down and digesting dead skin cells leaving you with a glowing complexion. The Aloe Vera is also there to provide a deep moisturisation and to strengthen and protect your skin. Finally the plant has great healing qualities on a whole host of skin problems including acne and eczema.
A splash of lemon juice also helps to clear acne by drying up pimples and causing the angry redness of them to fade. It also acts as a toner and tightens the pores. Also included in the mixture is lime oil, sweet grapefruit juice and tangerine juice which all add a refreshing blast to the cream and also help to tone the skin and tighten the pores.
Finally, added into the mixture is some organic butters, including Cocoa butter, which gives your skin a light but essential moisturisation to make sure your skin stays hydrated, soft and smooth.
The product will cost you £12 for 45 grams of this cream. It's expensive but well worth it if it helps you with your skin problems. It can be bought from your local Lush store or from its online website. As Lush makes its products using natural ingredients, they do come with an expiry date so you can't stretch out the life of the cream. You can rest assured that none of their products or the ingredients within them will have been tested on animals.
The consistency of this cream is thin and quite like liquid which is unusual for a facial moisturiser. If you don't use too much, then it will be easily absorbed into the skin. The scent of the cream is citrus fresh and fruity but subtle.
The product did help my skin to become more toned. My face feels tighter, in a good way and my pores appear smaller. I've noticed fewer black heads and the spots that I did already have were dried up by this product.
But that is where the good news ends. My skin is no less oily than it was before and this cream certainly has not given me a matt complexion. I also still get spots, perhaps more and there has been no no miraculous change in the condition of my skin. I find the idea of putting Cocoa butter in a face cream weird too. I must say that I was disappointed with the results after all the hype and the ingredients that it contained.
I gave the product to my mother but it wasn't moisturising enough for her skin. Emzymion is now in the bin and I'm back onto Simple. But the search for a solution continues...
Fresh Organic Lemon Infusion (Citrus limonum), Organic Aloe Vera Gel (Aloe barbadensis), Cocoa Butter (Theobroma cacao), Stearic Acid, Freshly Juiced Papaya (Carica papaya), Organic Cold Pressed Avocado Oil (Persea gratissima), Glycerine, Triethanolamine, Freshly Juiced Organic Lemon (Citrus limonum), Organic Cold Pressed Evening Primrose Oil (Oenothera biennis), Organic Cold Pressed Wheatgerm Oil (Triticum vulgare), Tangerine Oil (Citrus reticulata), Lime Oil (Citrus aurantifolia), Cetearyl Alcohol, *Limonene, Perfume, Methylparaben, Propylparaben
I found the website a bit misleading with this product, it stated it was for dull or oily skin- to me this suggests combination but when I recieved it the packet says 'for oily skin'.
The texture of the cream on your skin is a bit too claggy and feels as though you have a layer of something sat on your skin, not many points for absorbance.
The product smells, I cant pin point the exact smell as sometimes I think it smells like popcorn, other times it smells of wet dog. Usually somewhere in between these smells.
As for spots and oilyness its made the dryer parts of my skin spotty and kind of oily.
A plus side of this product is its part of the lush offer *bring back 5 black pots and get a Fresh Face Mask free* although its so expensive I'm forcing myself to use it just so it wasn't a total waste.
Price :
45g = £11.74
Suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
I have had a lot of trouble finding a moisturiser which is suitable for my super sensitive skin so when I noticed that Lush do moisturisers I though surely one of theirs would be suitable for me as they are all nice and natural.
I have worked my way through a few moisturisers from Lush now and there have been many disasters along the way, the worst being when I used Enzymion.
I purchased my tub of Enzymion when I was quite new to Lush and I daftly did not check what sort of skin type it was intended for, nor its ingredients and for this I paid dearly.
Enzymion is in a little black screw top tub which contains 45g of moisturiser. On the tub is the ingredients list, some information about the product and a little round sticker with details of when it was made and by who along with a picture of its maker and a use by date. The price of Enzymion is £12 making it one of the more affordable moisturisers from Lush.
Enzymion is a little off white in colour and is not thick and creamy like many moisturisers but quite watery looking and thin in consistency. This moisturiser is meant to absorb oil and as my forehead was feeling a bit oily I though this would be good, how wrong I was.
I cleansed and toned my face and then began to apply the moisturiser. The thinness of the moisturiser made it easy to apply and spread, it also sinks into the skin very quickly leaving very little sticky residue which I have found to be annoying in other moisturisers - it did not leave my skin looking shiny, I really do not like it when my face feels like it has a layer over it, I like moisturiser to absorb into my skin and disappear.
It was not long before my face began to burn and feel sore, I started scratching at it furiously and rubbing at my face, I tried to stick it out thinking that my skin just needed to get used to moisturiser as I had not used any for so long, but no, eventually I just had to wash it off.
I was dismayed to find that there was little relief in washing off the moisturiser because my skin was red raw and burning still and had patches which were raised. After several hours my skin was still amazingly sore and red and was a messy mix of a raised rah and dry patches, I was horrified and feeling very sorry for myself and annoyed that I had not checked the ingredients.
The ingredients in Enzymion as given on the Lush website are -
Fresh Organic Lemon Infusion (Citrus limonum)
Organic Aloe Vera Gel (Aloe barbadensis)
Cocoa Butter (Theobroma cacao)
Stearic Acid
Freshly Juiced Papaya (Carica papaya)
Cold Pressed Organic Avocado Oil (Persea gratissima)
Freshly Juiced Organic Lemon (Citrus limonum)
Cold Pressed Organic Evening Primrose Oil (Oenothera biennis)
Cold Pressed Wheatgerm Oil (Triticum vulgare)
Tangerine Oil (Citrus reticulata)
Lime Oil (Citrus aurantifolia)
Cetearyl Alcohol
Taking a look at the ingredients made me see that this really was not the moisturiser for me (well that and the fact that my face looked like something from a horror movie!). The acidic contents such as lemon and lime are really not suitable for sensitive skin.
For the next 8 days my skin felt irritable and tight. The first 4 or 5 days after using Enzymion my skin looked red raw with patched which were very dry, other patches were spotty and my whole face just felt like it was on fire, so I hardly left the house as on the few times I did I felt everyone was looking at me and thinking how awful I looked. I applied calamine lotion to try and soothe it a little, it worked a bit but I was still very uncomfortable.
I have definitely learnt that in future I will need to check ingredients thoroughly and it may be best with me to consult with an assistant in Lush before using facial care products to try and avoid this happening again.
Obviously I can't recommend this product, I was pleased with how light it felt and how easily it was absorbed after the initial application but that's where its plus points end, someone with normal skin may find this suitable. This is meant for oily skin, and my forehead was oily and with all the irritation on the rest of my face, my forehead actually looked okay, so it seemed to work there, but on the rest of my face where excess oil was not a problem it dried my skin out badly.
Perfect / This brightening moisturiser makes oily skin matte and dull skin radiant / Wholesome ingredients of fresh papaya, soothing aloe vera, infused fresh lemons plus sweet grapefruit and limes oils, refresh and tone your face while keeping the skin supple and moisturised /

Also I think 99% of people rarely get great pizza and are used to tossing the bones of frozen pizzas and cheap takeout/delivery pizzas that I would toss too
then if he refuses break his arm
I've put a lot of thought, time, and effort into trying to produce what I consider to be a delicious pizza crust. To me, a great pizza crust is one that could be eaten with no toppings at all - if you don't have a good crust that could stand on its own, then the complete pizza will never be as good as it could be.Which brings me to my dilemma. I had some friends over for pizza, and one of them had the nerve to discard the "pizza bones" - the edge crust pieces. I have no problem with people who do this with flavorless, cardboard-like pizza. But I put my heart and soul into that crust, and to see it carelessly discarded... I wanted to strap him to a chair and cram it down his throat! So, what say you, forum members? Should I ever bother to invite this crust-neglecter back again to continue stabbing me in the heart?__Jason
I also host lots of parties, with men and their wives, all concerned about carbs, and they clear their plate, every time.I just don't have leftover bones. None.My secret...well it's a damm fine crust, thin, light and just a bit crunchy and the guests can't resist.When I say light, I make my 12" pies around 170-180 grams.When I say thin, it's almost as thin as I can stretch it.When I say crispy, my wheel sings a bit as it cuts the bottom and the cornicione.When I do dine out for pizza , for some very authentic Neapolitan pies, I look around at the other diners and my own plates, and I see bones everywhere.Maybe it's not the guests.Make those pies so good they can't stop eating.Perry
Perry,Your crusts are very lightweight (around 6 ounces) and very thin (with a thickness factor of around 0.05), and I suspect that cheese and toppings are modest also, so I can see how your guests might not leave anything behind. Peter
Peter,What's the formula for calculating thickness factor? I'm curious how you figured out how thin his dough is, especially since I can't figure out how to account for the thicker corncione section... Thanks!
Peter,What's the formula for calculating thickness factor? I'm curious how you figured out how thin his dough is, especially since I can't figure out how to account for the thicker corncione section...
Derrick,Perry mentioned that he uses 170-180 gram dough balls for a 12" pizza.For a dough ball weight of 170 grams, and a 12" pizza size with a radius of 6", the thickness factor is (170/28.35)/(3.14159 x 6 x 6) = 0.05302.For a dough ball weight of 180 grams, and the same size pizza, etc., the thickness factor is (180/28.35)/(3.14159 x 6 x 6) = 0.05614.The above thickness factor values are, at best, guides, since variations in the size of the rims can affect the crust thickness for the rest of the crust. In practice, you can tweak the thickness factor values (e.g., by using one of the dough calculating tools) to achieve the desired thickness of the crust outside of the area of your particular sized rim.

Norwich City's Wes Hoolahan unable to weave magic in 45 minutes for Republic of Ireland
PUBLISHED: 09:26 15 November 2012 | UPDATED: 10:49 15 November 2012

Norwich City playmaker Wes Hoolahan was unable to inspire the Republic of Ireland last night as they ended 2012 with a depressing home defeat.
Hoolahan earned his second international cap after being introduced as a half-time substitute, receiving a big cheer from a sparse Dublin crowd as he entered the fray.
But playing off lone striker Kevin Doyle he failed to impose himself on the game as visitors Greece held out for a hard-earned win.
Giovanni Trapattoni's experimental side, which featured Ciaran Clark, James McCarthy, James McClean and Robbie Brady from the start and Hoolahan after the break, competed well for long periods, but were unable to carve out the openings to take something from the game. Ireland showed plenty of endeavour and at times craft, but they could not find the killer touch in front of goal.
As a result, Jose Holebas' sweet 29th-minute strike was enough to win the game for the visitors and leave Trapattoni's detractors with enough ammunition to maintain their opposition to his continued presence at the helm heading into March's crucial World Cup qualifiers against Sweden and Austria.
The Republic looked certain to take the lead with 10 minutes gone when full-back Seamus Coleman crossed. Simon Cox had found a yard of space and climbed to meet the ball unopposed, but he was unable to hit the target with just keeper Orestis Karnezis to beat.
Greece made them pay for the miss when skipper Georgios Samaras turned Konstantinos Mitroglou's pass into the path of Holebas, who span John O'Shea and thumped the ball into the bottom corner.
Long and Clark were both booked for clumsy challenges as the game unfolded in anything but friendly fashion, but the home side had rather lost their way.
They might have levelled in injury time when Brady tested Karnezis with a left-foot strike after being set up by Long, but the goalkeeper was equal to the task.
There was warm applause from the sparse crowd when, on their return, Ireland were joined by in-form Norwich star Hoolahan, winning just his second cap, a fact which had not gone unnoticed by Trapattoni's critics.
Brady departed along with Long to accommodate his arrival and that of Kevin Doyle, who was asked to play a lone striking role ahead of Hoolahan with Cox dropping in on the left and McClean moving to the right.
Ironically Glenn Whelan, the man who had pleaded with his manager earlier in the week to field an extra midfielder, was back in the dressing room having limped off injured before the break.
However, it was McCarthy who almost dragged the Republic back into the game two minutes into the second half when Karnezis failed to hold his long-range shot, although Papastathopoulos prevented Doyle from converting the rebound and Cox's follow-up was blocked.
But while perspiration was not in short supply, inspiration was and the Irish failed to make the most of the possession they were allowed as the game passed the hour-mark with Greece's narrow lead intact.
Ward hacked a 69th-minute shot harmlessly across the face of goal after the Greeks had failed to clear a McClean free-kick, and Greece coasted to the final whistle and victory with few alarms.

TNT's doubleheader dominates Thursday nights in the NBA. Those two games have become appointment viewing for fans over the years, as most of the league is off to showcase a few teams on a national stage.
But it's not uncommon for schedule makers to slot in one extra game to run in the background on Thursday night, typically involving at least one lottery-bound team. Last week's B-side featured a battle of the titans, as the Kings took on the Mavericks for 12th-place supremacy in the Western Conference. A few weeks earlier, the Hawks unceremoniously blew out the Bobcats.
And this week, the Bucks, a perfectly decent but inarguably low-profile team, and the West-worst Suns had the distinction of playing opposite TNT's Heat-Lakers blockbuster. Even NBA diehards had every reason to focus on the headliner as opposed to the scheduled also-ran, and Miami's victory turned out to be riveting theater.
But the Bucks and Suns managed to provide a somewhat entertaining product, including a touch-and-go fourth quarter that featured a single-digit margin the entire way. (The game turned out to be the last of coach Alvin Gentry's tenure in Phoenix.) Neither team was all that spectacular, but it was hard-fought, competitive basketball in a game that could easily have been far less interesting. Credit goes to Phoenix for hanging around, and to Milwaukee for sneaking away with a 98-94 comeback win.
Or, more specifically: Credit goes to Bucks interim coach Jim Boylan, who has already drawn up a few notably effective set plays in his short tenure. On Thursday, Boylan's signature came with about one minute remaining and the Bucks leading by five, 91-86. Let's take a look at that play, which produced Mike Dunleavy's key three-pointer over Jared Dudley:
That's not just a clutch three-pointer from a good shooter, but a clever use of personnel. Defenders are trained to look for the opponent's top shot creators in these instances, and thus it's natural that the Suns would fixate on Monta Ellis, who cuts down the baseline, before Dunleavy or Brandon Jennings, who is initiating this play from the top of the floor. By first running Ellis around a series of screens and having him curl toward the foul line, Milwaukee makes this look like a roundabout setup for a basic isolation sequence -- a device geared to get the ball in the hands of its best individual scorer. But Boylan smartly drew up a play in which Dunleavy, after screening for Ellis, feigns to float out to the corner before making a hard cut in Ellis' wake. He uses the same screens and the same path, but has the benefit of working against a defense that likely expected Ellis to get the ball.
Here's how that same play looks once diagrammed:
Dudley is still persistent enough to get back in Dunleavy's line of sight, but he's lost a step thanks to the initial surprise of Dunleavy's cut and Milwaukee's screening. The execution by screeners John Henson and Larry Sanders could be better here, but they at least manage to get in Dudley's way long enough for Dunleavy to pull the trigger for his fourth three-pointer of the game in five attempts.

Howdy, Stranger!
It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Volkswagen Jetta vs. Honda Accord
Our family has leased 2 Jetta's, and we have an 08 Jetta SE now. We have not had any real issues with them. Just normal routines. The newer models have a great maintenance package now too. I have leased an 06 Accord, I had no issues with it either. I have had way more issues with my 08 G6 I have now than we ever had with a new car combined!
I think you will be fine with either a Civic or Jetta. Pick the one you feel is for you. I am just not sure what makes you feel that VW is not reliable. Unless your new to VW, I can see how you feel. I would have thought my 08 GM car would be easy, but it hasn't been. It was my first GM ever!, and it will be the last! Want a 50% lemon? I would do anything to drive a VW or Honda!!
Go for what you want!
Wrong. The maximum torque RPM is all that matters. WIth the Accord, and indeed all Japanese cars the max torque is at a high RPM where you burn the most gas and have the least probability of overtaking in an emergency. This is why all German cars have their maximum torque at a low RPM. My 2006 Jetta routinely blows away V6 Accords in the big mountain passes. Yes the Accord passes me at the start of the pass because Japanese car drivers are used to having to wind their cars up (to a high RPM) but without fail I always pass them before the top (I use Cruise Control). On the west coast we play a game called "How many happy Honda's are we going to pass on the pass". Last weekend we passed 3 V6 Accords. I think the Hondas are excellent cars but comparing Japanese cars to German cars is like comparing Mopeds to Ducatis. This is what most people who shop on spec sheets alone don't understand. If you are looking for something to get you from point A to point B then buy Japanese or Korean, but you will sacrifice much and be left wanting for something with soul.
Hi fishpotato, In my opinion you are comparing two different classes of car. For some reason North Americans are comparing Jetta's to Civic's. This is completely ridiculous and in some way VW supports this. The VW Polo which we are getting in North America soon is the direct competitor to the Civic everywhere else in the world. The Jetta is more Comparable to the Accord than the Civic but even that comparison is not fair. The Jetta is in it's own class. You have to drive them both. When I say drive I mean drive them, take them both on the highway and assess them for their ability to provide you with a "driving experience". German cars are engineered much differently than Japanese cars and their design philosophies are very, very different. The Civic will likely feel peppier in the City but once you take it on the highway at high speed look out. Don't forget that the Civic (either side of 1992) used to be the most dangerous car on the road. In the same model years the Golf was the safest in that "class". You will be happy with both cars but in my opinion if you buy the Jetta you will never buy anything but a VW again for the rest of your life. That's what happened to me.
thegraduate Posts: 9,731this forum certainly died.
lol. Yep. Well lets wake it up!
leman2009 Posts: 1DO NOT buy a VW 2011. I've bought 2011 VW jetta SEL. since the day I bought it it went to shop for 8 times already. It is poorly built. My previous Jetta which was value edition was much better. as a loyal VW costumer they should have treated me better, but they didn't. I've taking my car to 7 dealership to get rid of it. the car has depriciate the value which is understandable. I'm about to get an accord coupe EX-L. VW had many problems, engine jumps by itself when the car is on idle, interior A/C knobs was already broken. speaker burst " I don't listen loud music" right front door had this crazy rattling sound since the day I've bought it. They put some plastic stuff in it and it still rattles, front instrument panel which holds the odometer was hanging down. they ordered the plastic piece twice and finally put it in better. I hear a chain sound coming from the engine some times. when I'm on a rough road, everything rattles. cheap letharette seats are incredibly uncomfortable. everything is made of cheap plastic. made in MEXICO.. chepest car ever. I am getting rid of it. I have been with VW since 2004. I had audi then jetta and this jetta. I will not go even close to the VW dealership again. They want to compete with japanese cars buy reducing the price buy reducing the quality. some of them come with drum brakes. I HATE VW JETTA 2011........ don't waste your money.. you can never go wrong with HONDA.... I had one before and it was awesome. I should hav estick with it. :mad: :confuse: :lemon:
Wow! I am so sorry you have had issues with your car. This doesn't sound like typical issues, so perhaps your car was built wrong or off. I am a VW and a Honda fan too!
I have had my 2011 Jetta SE for 8 months now and I love it. Though, my horn stopped working 2 times, but other than that no issues as of it. The engine is strong, the body is solid. Yes, some areas of plastic could be better, but the tan interior makes up for it. For the features such as the touch screen, bluetooth, I feel like I driving an upscale car for the money.
I hope that I don't have anymore issues. I wish you luck. Sorry its been a bad time for you.
lovethatjetta Posts: 1After the rain from Hurricane Irene I had about 1/2 inch of water behind the driver's seat. The car started and drove fine for a couple of hours. This morning it started but stalled out after about 2 seconds, and continues to do so. The display also is unreadable. I have seen and heard of problems with the Passat with water, but not the Jetta. Has anyone had this problem?

Birmingham LG Arena - Thursday 31st October
We regret to advise that due to illness Arctic Monkeys will be unable to perform at the Birmingham LG Arena tonight (Thursday 31st October 2013).
Please retain your tickets and await further information.
We very much regret any inconvenience caused.

Clearly the rock star attitude has gone to their heads: make it big, get rich and famous, treat your fans with contempt. Cancelling 90 minutes before the gig is unforgiveable, bearing in mind that they're playing in only a few places and must have known that people would be travelling from all over. Cynical ba*&£!ds.
dcfc monkey
31.10.13 9:04 pm
Do you know for a fact they were drugged up ?
I love the rumour mill when it gets going hardly like there the first band to cancel a gig ever. All u people seem to know everything that's gone on makes me laugh. And I was there tonight just got into the building and then told it had been cancelled I would rather they cancel than put on a @#$*! gig.
31.10.13 8:57 pm
I'm gutted but at the end of the day they are human and as much as people are let down the band are just normal guys who do on occasions get ill. If your saying that they were out last night and today they are hungover, how any times have you not turned up for work and let someone down because you have been on the smash the night before??? Lets just wait for the new date to be announced.
31.10.13 8:52 pm
16th birthday present for my son. Can't believe they waited till the last minute to cancel. Will they be refunding petrol money!!!!
31.10.13 8:50 pm

Came from Dublin with my 15 year old daughter only to find gig cancelled as we were just arriving at venue.Totally @#$*!ed off is an understatement !! Rock stars my arse !!
31.10.13 8:38 pm
Birthday treat for my son, his first live concert, day off work, worked late all this week to finish early to drive down, petrol money, hotel room, parking - don't know if I could afford to do it again. Really, really hope there's a genuine reason and not just a hangover.
31.10.13 8:34 pm
IHave to say that the short notice is a joke. If you are genuinely ill then explain what the illness is and who is ill. If you were @#$*!ed and drugged up in the Groucho last night then you or your manager are to blame for tonights debacle. I was taking my 14-year old son to his first proper gig but you screwed it up for him! Better make it up to your fans and don't disappear up your own arseholes!!!

Dark Matter Overview
MHP's Dark Matter is a revolutionary new post-workout drink that stimulates recovery and triggers new muscle growth by maximizing the Anabolic Axis. The Anabolic Axis is the time window immediately following exercise in which your insulin sensitivity is significantly heightened, poised to shuttle nutrients like glycogen and amino acids into hungry muscle cells. Dark Matter utilizes this principle and provides your muscles with insulin-spiking complex and simple carbs as well as fast-absorbing protein needed to replenish muscle glycogen and start the anabolic recovery process in muscle tissues. Dark Matter can help increase post-workout protein synthesis by up to 600% because of the massive insulin-spike from the type of black rice used. The protein found in Dark Matter absorbs faster than standard whey proteins, delivering aminos at lightning-fast speeds to your muscles!
Dark Matter Description from MHP
Hyper-Anabolic Post-Workout Muscle Growth AcceleratorFaster Absorption Than Whey - Stimulates Protein Synthesis - Significantly Spikes Insulin - Helps Maximize Creatine Uptake and Glycogen ReplenishmentDon't waste another workout! If you want to start gaining serious size, chug down some DARK MATTER and introduce your muscle to a new frontier of hyper-anabolic muscle growth. The greatest opportunity to stimulate muscle growth is immediately after your workout. The faster you can get critical nutrients into your bloodstream and muscles, the better. DARK MATTER employs new technologies and compounds that allow for super-fast nutrient uptake and help spark a synergistic anabolic reaction during which insulin levels peak with amino acid, creatine and glycogen transport at the "Anabolic Axis" to trigger enhanced muscle growth and speed recovery.
Other Ingredients: Malic acid, citric acid, natural and artificial flavors, silica, red 40 Lake, blue 1 Lake, acesulfame potassium, sucralose.
Manufacturer's Directions
DARK MATTER is a Hyper-Anabolic Ulitmate Post-Workout Muscle Growth Accelerator designed to be taken immediately after your workout. Add 1 scoop to 8 fl. oz. of water in a glass or shaker bottle immediately after training. (For maximum results, you may take 2 scoops with 16 fl. oz. of water) Stir or shake vigorously.
Manufacturer's Disclaimer
Keep out of reach of children. Store at 10-30F (50-86F). Protect from heat, light and moisture. Do not purchase if seal is broken.
Used to love this stuff, the new formula has only 2g of protein!!! Buyer beware.
New formula - i feel like it works good - in fact it works great...but man - this is hard to drink. Before they changed it - it was much better tasting. just sayin...
I've been taking this product for a very long time now and I highly recommend it as a post workout recovery drink.
Good product. Good taste, much better than it's pre workout twin Dark Rage and other products I've tried. Little pricey for a post workout/stand alone product. I always add a scoop of plain/vanilla protein powder with the DM to give it more value. Wish Rage tasted this good.

Beautiful HTML is the foundation of a beautiful website. When I teach people about CSS, I always begin by telling them that good CSS can only exist with equally good HTML markup. A house is only as strong as its foundation, right? The advantages of clean, semantic HTML are many, yet so many websites suffer from poorly written markup.
Most of the tips in here are definitely true, tabbing and doctype and semantics but others are not set in stone, for example sometimes javascript can be listed outside of the head section, and non external css can be okay at times. Moreover, I use php to write fresh js and inline styles for my version of the flickrRSS plugin

....accept it wasn't on my bike. Took my family to Boerne to visit my parents last wednesday. My sis also flew in from Seattle. My dad just got a 2005 Goldwing and also has a rebel 250 which none of us really wanted to ride, so we went down to the Harley dealer in Boerne and rented a dyna low ride for my sis (who has very short legs) and a road king for me. We took off from Boerne and headed to Lukenbach, from there it was on towards Medina, then eventually over to Bandera, where my parents used to live. We rode out to lake medina/wharton's dock (that road is getting really bad), back to town, and then back to Boerne. All told about 170 miles, almost a full tank on the road king. I got to ride my dad's Wing on the last leg and that was a blast, that motor is turbine smooth, was kinda hard for me to ride because he was still breaking it in and it was so much more quiet than the Hog I'd been on all day. I really had to keep an eye on the tach to keep it under three grand.
I was kinda bummed afterwards. It was alot of fun, but we rode to places we'd been so many times as kids. Kinda nestalgic, but I wanted to ride some roads I hadn't been on. This has made me rethink going to the Hill Country Rally next year with my K bike, now I'm leaning towards attending the Red Rock Rendezvous instead, mainly because I've never been to Utah and from what I understand the scenery is breathtaking. Oh well, I have a long time to decide.
One thing I did take away from my experience was a new respect for Harleys. The road king was a blast on the back country roads, lots of torque and that great exhaust, but I wouldn't have one as a primary bike. In Kerrville we rode through downtown stoplight to stoplight and the vibration and heat at idle was terrible....but if you kept the thing moving it was very happy. Even had electronic cruise for the ride back to the dealer on I-10. If I'm ever fortunate enought to make serious money in my future career, I think it would make a great second bike for weekend blasts in the country. And the Goldwing was also impressive, mainly because it made me realize that later in life a full dress tourer is probably what I will want for doing the long haul riding I want to do. And from what I understand, BMW makes some of the best tourers around.

I am trying to build the sample panel plugin on narwhal. autogen does not complete, three questions:
1) what is the appropriate "autoconf macro directory" to copy codeset.m4 etc. to ? I have tried /usr/share/autoconf/autoconf/
2) where is the file isc-posix.m4 from ? I don't have it on my system, and google does not produce good clues.
3) configure:4014 produces error: possibly undefined macro: m4_ifval. The macro is defined in /usr/share/autoconf/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4.
When building something from git, install xfce4-dev-tools.
Installed them, and a lot of other pgming stuff suggested by apt-get.
To answer my own questions the macros ended up in /usr/share/xfce4/dev-tools/m4macros/
I found some text to put in isc-posix, it is ? no longer needed ?
I have a ./configure, but it fails with:
checking for a sed that does not truncate output... /bin/sed
./configure: line 4012: syntax error near unexpected token `lt_decl_varnames,'
./configure: line 4012: `lt_if_append_uniq(lt_decl_varnames, SED, , ,'
Similar errors google up from building Apache, they are blamed on version incompatibilities between autoconf and libtool. Currntly, autoconf is version 2.67 and libtool is 2.2.6b, automake is 1.11.1
I am researching. Merry Christmas.
I am now able to build recent plugins from git, like the xfce4-sensors plugin, but the sample plugin is about 18 months old, and will not build. Since most of the autogen work is done by xdt-autogen in the dev package, it should work. Of course "should" means nothing. Back to research.

My Gram always told me that there were three rules to having a proper sewing room. She said all sewing rooms had a giant button box, some candy and a space for giggling kids and I've lived by these guidelines.
On the left I have have buttons organized in tackle boxes and on the right is my Gram's cookie container button box full of more buttons.
The candy is right where my Gram always kept hers: to the right of the machine (left if you're left handed, lol).
This is my daughter's space. They keep their scraps in the file cabinet and all their own tools and mats are on this table. They even each have their own sewing machines.

of the billions of taxpayer dollars that president Obama set aside to
help the economy and improve the technology used in many parts of the
government is allotted to greatly improving the internet
infrastructure in America. Millions of Americans around the country
have no access to broadband or simply can't afford access.One
of the first steps towards overhauling the national broadband
infrastructure will be the unveiling of a new broadband plan by the
FCC on March 17. The FCC began
working on the national broadband plan back in April 2009.
The FCC is looking at multiple methods of funding a national
broadband plan including reallocation
of funds collected in the Universal Service Fund. Last week,
the FCC announced that it is aiming
for nationwide broadband speeds of 100Mbps, but ISPs are already
saying it will be hard to hit that speed in the next ten
years.Reuters reports
that the FCC's national broadband plan is set to be unveiled
on March 17 to Congress. The plan hopes to bring affordable
and fast broadband internet access to the 90 million Americans who
lack service today. According to the FCC, the major barriers it sees
to broadband adoption by more Americas are cost, digital literacy,
and relevance.FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski said in a
statement, "In the 21st century, a digital divide is an
opportunity divide. To bolster American competitiveness abroad and
create the jobs of the future here at home, we need to make sure that
all Americans have the skills and means to fully participate in the
digital economy."Cost is one of the main barriers to
broadband cited by the FCC. Subscribers to broadband access
around the country pay on average $40.68 per month while those
bundling with other services at about $37.70 monthly. The cost of
getting a computer in the home is also part of the cost barrier to
getting broadband for many Americans. The FCC has not yet said how it
plans to overcome the cost issues to broadband adoption or the other
barriers for Americans.As the FCC gets ready to unveil the
national broadband plan next month, broadband ISPs are speaking out
against any new regulations form the FCC over their networks. The FCC
has been urged to place ISPs under the same regulatory umbrella that
telecom providers operate under by digital rights groups. A decision
on an old case currently before the federal appeals court could
possibly derail
the FCCs plans for national broadband reports the Washington
rights groups urge the FCC to place the broadband providers alongside
phone providers with regulatory controls. The FCC is waiting on the
federal appeals court to offer a ruling on whether it has authority
over broadband providers. The appeal if from a 2007 case against
Comcast where the FCC found the ISP violated open-access guidelines
prohibiting network providers form slowing or blocking
websites.AT&T and Verizon are two of the largest
broadband providers in the country. Both firms penned a 14-page
document along with trade groups arguing that classifying broadband
service providers along with phone services would be to "extremist"
and add too many onerous ruled for the broadband industry.The
paper written by the companies stated, "The proposed regulatory
about-face would be untenable as a legal matter, and, at a minimum,
would plunge the industry into years of litigation and regulatory

Improving road safety and understanding cybercrime are two areas the police will prioritise over the next five years, according to Mark Burns-Williamson.
The issues rank highly in the West Yorkshire Police and Crime Comissioner's refreshed Police and Crime Plan for 2013to 2018.
Also in the plan are new commitments around crime prevention and reducing reoffending and the impact that welfare reforms may have on crime and community safety in West Yorkshire.
Mr Burns-Williamson said: "The plan sets out a strategic vision for policing and community safety across West Yorkshire, working more closely together to prevent and tackle crime in our county.
"It has been produced in partnership with local partners including West Yorkshire Police and continues to have at the heart of the plan the shared vision of working together to make sure all our communities are safer and feel safer."
More is also being done to work in partnership to tackle individuals and gangs involved in serious and organised crime - including child sexual exploitation - and getting back ill-gotten gains from criminals.
However, many priorities remain the same, such as reducing burglary, safeguarding people against serious and violent crime, supporting victims and witnesses and better tackling anti-social behaviour.

Nationals acquire Milledge from Mets
Washington parts with outfielder Church, catcher Schneider
By Bill Ladson / MLB.com
Milledge, 22, is a player whom general manager Jim Bowden has coveted since Milledge was playing for Lakewood Ranch High School in Bradenton, Fla. Milledge has been mentioned in trade talks for the last two years, with the Athletics another team that inquired about the outfielder during that period.
Washington had actually been in talks with the Mets about Milledge since July, but it couldn't get a deal done until Friday. According to one source, the Mets declined to give the Nationals a second player in the deal.
Now that he is a member of the Nationals, Milledge will get a chance to battle for the center-field job, a position Washington has had serious problems with over the last three years. Milledge can play the corners as well, but feels better suited in center. He never got the chance to play the position with the Mets, because the position belongs to Carlos Beltran.
"I was drafted as a center fielder," Milledge said. "I played left and I played right. They are difficult positions to play, but I definitely feel that I'm not a liability. I can play both positions -- left and right -- above average. Center field is my premier position. That's the position [where] I can do more for the team."
The Nationals believe that Milledge can develop into a middle-of-the-order hitter and become a good defensive outfielder. Milledge has been in and out of the big leagues since 2006. In 115 games the last two years, he produced a .257 batting average with 11 home runs and 57 RBIs.
"We think he is a building block as we continue to build this organization through young players," Bowden said. "At 22 years old, we control the player through 2012. Certainly, it bodes well for our future. ... To get a young player of the potential that Lastings Milledge has, you have to pay a price, and we paid a steep price. We felt it was a move we needed to make -- continue with our plan of building through young players, mostly through the draft or via trade."
Milledge periodically found himself in the middle of controversy during his two years with the Mets. In 2006, he was criticized for high-fiving fans after hitting his first Major League home run. That same year he was unpopular with teammates for not giving his all and showboating too much. In addition, he has dabbled in rap music, and was criticized for using foul language on a song called "Bend Ya Knees."
But Washington manager Manny Acta, a close friend of Milledge's from when they were both with New York, didn't seem concerned about the outfielder's past. In fact, Acta went so far as to say it was silly to criticize Milledge for mingling with the fans.
"I know Lastings very well. I can assure you that Lastings is a good kid," Acta said. "He came up to the big leagues very young. He was put in a very tough spot -- New York, a big-market team. He was not prepared to handle it. With that being said, he is a great kid. A lot of that stuff, you can't believe what you hear. I know him first-hand, and I love the kid. I believe the kid is going to be fine with us."
Milledge said that Acta was the one guy who stood behind him when he was involved in all that controversy.
"It's great to be back with Manny," he said. "When I was struggling a little bit in New York, everybody seemed to be against me, but Manny was actually there for me and gave me words of encouragement. He showed me the way I should go about my business. I know I'm going to play hard for him. I'm going to give him the extra effort, knowing that he has my back."
From a New York point of view, the deal seems a surprise, considering that the Mets acquired catcher Johnny Estrada from Milwaukee last week. But a baseball source said that the Mets were looking for a defensive player with leadership skills, and Schneider fits the bill.
The trade ends Schneider's 13-year relationship with the Nationals/Expos. A player rep, he played a huge role in helping his teammates get accustomed to playing more than 40 games in San Juan, Puerto Rico, before the team moved from Montreal to Washington.
Last year, Schneider had one of his worst seasons at the plate, hitting .235 with six home runs and 54 RBIs. Even so, by being traded, he will get a $500,000 bonus.
"I'm excited. It gives me a chance to go right to a championship-caliber team," Schneider said. "I'm up to the challenge. It's going to be a good pitching staff over there."
Church was often criticized by the Nationals for not hitting for power, but the Mets loved the fact that he hit 15 home runs and 43 doubles while playing at spacious RFK Stadium. He most likely will be the everyday right fielder for the Mets.
Schneider's departure does not necessarily mean that Jesus Flores will become the Nats' everyday catcher. The Nationals have different scenarios in this area. They may acquire a catcher to either platoon with Flores or to be the everyday catcher, with Flores as backup. Members of the Nats' front office have not ruled out sending Flores to Triple-A to start the season and better learn his craft.
A Rule 5 Draft pick, Flores impressed the Nationals during his rookie season. He hit .244 with four home runs and 25 RBIs, and found himself in a platoon with Schneider during the month of September.
"We think Flores can develop into a No. 1 catcher," said Bowden. "I can't tell you how the rest of the offseason is going play out, so I prefer to answer the question the beginning of April."

text: BTVS was always the more popular and ground-breaking show, plus spin-offs are rarely as popular as the original. Still, I've come to enjoy "Angel" more for the following reasons: 1. More interesting main character. 240-year-old vampire cursed with a soul on a quest for redemption is more interesting than "hot blonde woman deals with frustrations in school and in her love life" 2. Better setting. Supernatural detective agency vs. high school, college, or wherever. Plus L.A. vs Sunnydale 3. Wolfram and Hart as series-long over-arching antagonist vs villains of the season on BTVS 4. Angel is more adult and darker in tone. By avoiding the high school setting, Angel was able to tell more adult-relevant stories, plus avoided the drift from a mid-series shift in settings after graduation from high school on BTVS. Angel was also grittier and more noirish in tone, with a darker message of the "no big victories" and that the fight against evil is always going on 5. Angel at its weakest(perhaps season 3 or 4 depending on your view) was better than BTVS at its weakest (season 6) This is all of course just IMHO. And I will say that BTVS probably has the better supporting cast(Giles, Willow, Xander, Oz, Tara, etc. vs. Gunn, Fred, and Cordelia? no contest)

Victoria incumbent keeps Precinct 3 commissioner seat
Nov. 6, 2012 at 5:06 a.m.
Updated Nov. 7, 2012 at 5:07 a.m.
Precinct 3 voters picked Gary Burns, the Republican incumbent, to another term on the Victoria County Commissioners Court.
"I really appreciate all the work my family has done - my family, my friends, my church," Burns said. "It was a lot of work."
He was first elected to office in 2004.
Burns emphasized economic growth during his tenure and campaign and has taken roles in promoting health and wellness through his board position with Gulf Bend.
Burns said there are a lot of countywide problems to address and some weighty decisions to be made, especially regarding Citizens Medical Center and the county's future economic growth.
"I'm not doing anything different. I get in the middle of everything and I've got a great crew that makes my job a lot easier," Burns said.
His opponent, Rey Herrera, a sheriff's deputy, said although he was disappointed, it was a good race.
"It's not that we didn't try," Herrera said. "If it's not me, it's going to be somebody else, and I'll be totally supportive. We need to get some new blood out there."

BRONX, NY - If you weren't on hand for the Nike Battle of the Boroughs tournament on Sunday, saying you missed out would be a vast understatement.
Judging by the attendance though, there weren't too many people not on hand. The stands were absolutely packed to the point spectators were standing in the upper levels of the famed Gauchos Gym in The Bronx. The atmosphere was that of a playoff game as the city's top high school talents put the pride of their respective borough on the line in a 1-day tournament for bragging rights. Here's a recap of the 1st round action:
Queens dethroned by the Bronx, 61-58
The Battle of the Borough's defending champs from Queens took on The Bronx in the day's first matchup. Early on, Queens showed everyone why they took the title a year ago. Headed by star point guard Jevon Thomas (13 points), the Q-Boro representatives jumped out on the hometown squad early.
Thomas was exceptional in the first half. He pushed the tempo and got all his teammates easy buckets as well as for himself. Thomas' play allowed Queens to jump out to a 13 point lead at the end of the first half. Queens was also backed with the versatile Malik Nichols who as always scored in a variety of ways at will.
The lead would balloon to as much as 19 in the second half. The Bronx had a rough time handling the ball as turnovers would lead to easy buckets for Queens. It looked like the makings of a blowout as The Bronx team could not make a major dent in Queens' lead. Insert: Shammgod Wells (5 points).
Known more for being the son of streetball legend God Shammgod, Wells defense on the Queens guards changed the whole spectrum of the game. The Bronx applied a full-court press late in the 3rd quarter, which rattled the Queens guards. After digging a 48-29 deficit, The Bronx outscored Queens 7-1 in the last minute of the 3rd and started the 4th on a 6-0 run. A three-pointer from Daniel Dingle (8 points) with 10 seconds remaining gave The Bronx their first lead of the game. After a pair of clutch free throws from Wells, Nichols missed a potential game-tying 3-pointer which sealed Queens' fate and The Bronx's victory.
Chris McCullough and Dennis Green led a very balanced Bronx attack with 11 points each. No one else on the team cracked double digits. Malik Nichols led all scorers with 19 for Queens.
Harlem goes uptown on Brooklyn, 66-61
They say "Manhattan keeps on making it and Brooklyn keeps on taking it." Well in Game 2 of the tournament, the Harlem squad refused to let the Brooklyn boys take a win from them. Armed with the nation's 5th ranked high school player in Kyle Anderson, Harlem stepped on the court ready to "make it" to the championship round.
Harlem jumped out to an 11-4 lead, despite a slow start from Anderson. Brooklyn did have the clear cut height advantage with Edson Avila (6 points) and 7'0" Jordan Dickerson. But more importantly, Brooklyn had Jeff Neverson. The 6'5" forward out of Boys & Girls caused problems for Harlem all night. Brooklyn swiped the lead from Harlem and ended the first half up 33-26.
Brooklyn's lead would balloon to as much as 12 in the second half but Harlem would find a way to climb back. Anderson was struggling from the field, but remained a factor by using his great basketball IQ and court vision to keep his teammates involved. Midway in the third, Anderson started to heat up and in the 4th, he was on fire. A couple and-1s from Anderson brought Harlem within 6.
Harlem would take their first lead of the 2nd half in the 4th behind the play of Anderson and Jevaune Dawson, who scored 8 of his 11 points in the 4th including some clutch free throws down the stretch. Neverson would finish up with a game-high 21 points but was the only one in double-figures for Brooklyn. Although Lincoln guard Isaiah Whitehead had a few scoring spurts, he'd only finish with 13 points for Brooklyn. Anderson had 19 points to lead Harlem to a victory and a meeting with their Uptown rivals, The Bronx.

The contracts will be executed at Alstom's rolling stock manufacturing facility in Hornell, N.Y. Both projects are scheduled to begin immediately.
The first project includes the full modernization of 86 articulated light rail transit vehicles operating on MBTA's Green Line, which dates back to the 1980s and transports more than 200,000 passengers daily from Boston's downtown city center to the surrounding suburbs. The cars will be outfitted with new interior surfaces and with new propulsion and climate control systems. The first modernized Green Line cars are scheduled for delivery in late 2013.
For the second project, Alstom will refit 74 bi-level MBTA commuter rail cars. Work includes the overhaul of the brake system components on each vehicle, the installation of new operator control screens, passenger information displays, interior seating, dynamic signage and upgraded door control mechanisms. A pilot set of 10 bi-level cars will arrive in Hornell in late 2012 and the first modernized cars are scheduled for return to Boston in late 2013. Production will reach a maximum rate of four cars per month.
Guillaume Mehlman, president of Alstom Transport North America stated, "To date, Alstom has successfully modernized more than 5,000 passenger rail cars across the USA. The know-how and dedication of Alstom teams will give these time-tested rail cars a new lease on life and offer MBTA's passengers superior on-board comfort."
The modernization of both MBTA rail fleets, including the engineering, will take place within the United States and incorporate a level of American content at or above 80 percent. The two projects will create nearly 400 jobs across the U.S. and, together with the PATCO fleet modernization already underway, bring as many as 100 new jobs to Alstom's Hornell facility over the next three years.

Visiting Lady Broncos no match for Sanger
SANGER — Wearing seafoam green shoes, Carissa Spiker caught everyone's attention with a game-high 23 points as Sanger took down Denton 57-33 on Tuesday night.
Spiker led Sanger out to an 18-6 lead with 12 first-quarter points and had 19 by halftime as the Lady Indians enjoyed a 31-16 advantage.
Taylor Seastrunk, who paced the Lady Broncos with 10 points, knocked down a 3-pointer for the first points of the game, but Spiker asserted herself by scoring Sanger's first nine points.
Spiker played active defense and made smart decisions in transition, and Sanger coach Jack Armstrong said her offensive production was a cherry on top of her usual steady play at point guard.
"It's the best game she's played this year," Armstrong said. "She sees the floor really well. She's a natural point guard, likes to assist, but she shot well tonight, too, so that's a double bonus. Especially with them pressuring us, it was hard for them to pressure with the way she was attacking."
Spiker also had her share of assists, helping to facilitate an efficient offense while getting Sanger's post players easy looks inside, where the Lady Indians held a distinct advantage, according to Denton coach Dennis Krishka.
"We were outworked, outhustled and outphysicalled," Krishka said. "They pushed us around, and we let them do whatever they wanted. We are going through some growing pains. You can tell that Argyle and Sanger, which play in the same district, play a lot alike. I hope we learned some things tonight."
The Lady Broncos suffered a similar fate against Sanger as they did in last week's 53-33 loss to Arygle. Denton struggled to find its offensive groove, and with Spiker dicing up his defense, Krishka said his team could use an offensive leader like the Sanger guard.
"We're struggling to score," Krishka said. "There's no question. We struggled against Argyle and we struggled again tonight. We don't have that go-to player. [Spiker] had 19 points in the first half for them. Everybody seems to have one, but we're still looking for one. She's aggressive, she'll take you off the bounce or she'll shoot the 3, and she's very physical. We didn't have an answer for her. It's that simple."
The Lady Broncos made an attempt to rally to start the second half when Taylor Allison added her first two buckets of the game to draw Denton within 33-20, but they couldn't match Sanger's defensive intensity. When the Lady Broncos did force turnovers, they couldn't convert them into easy points like the Lady Indians were able to.
Sanger frequently capitalized on easy transition opportunities while exploiting Denton's overaggression on defense.
"I thought we did a good job playing help defense, and for the most part we did a pretty good job keeping them off the boards," Armstrong said. "For a whole game, it's probably the best we've played. At times we've played well in spurts, but we just haven't played a whole game, and tonight we came closer to a whole game. We had a few turnovers, and that was from Denton's pressure, but for the most part I was pleased."
The Lady Indians moved to 7-4, while the Lady Broncos fell to 6-4 with their third consecutive loss.
With District 5-4A play just around the corner, Krishka said he hopes his team can pull it together during tournament games this week.
"We had that week off and I'm not sure if that hurt us or not, but we've got four games this week in a tournament in Aubrey, so we've got plenty of opportunity to improve before district next week," Krishka said.

Discussion in 'Other Equipment' started by SuDan, Sep 16, 2005.
go to the land of asia! they got everything
LOL. I love it. Even if he was faking it.
Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy still owns the patent on western grips so you can probably find the best western grips for sale there. You may want to post your used eastern grips on Robert Lansdorfs classified section.
Guys......this is almost 2 years old.
Yes, it's funny, but we shouldn't revive old threads unless they indeed have helpful information.
Hey guys can you help me out?
I bought a western grip on E-b-ay and I think it might be fake.
On first glance it looks real but when I play with it, I get no topspin.
Is there a way to tell if a grip is fake?
I'll try to post pictures later on. I gotta go to my class.
Thanks for your help.
That is absolutely the funniest post in this thread!!!
Does anyone know where to add lead to the Asian Grips to make them heavier... but retain their mid point balance?
Then ignore the thread and go hit or something.
It's not just that it's beating a dead horse; it's not proper forum etiquette.
He started a thread... if you don't like it... don't read it. Fun threads build the community too.
yeah, bumping really old topics in every forum is bad.
You should be able to get one in South America or Spain. I'm pretty sure everyone there has them.
you two wake up on the wrong side of the bed? it is a fun thread... no harm at all. maybe you guys could start a thread asking where to buy some "chill pills"...
thought i would add the 1337 to the list too... haha.
That's quite clever of you. Now imagine if you could actually buy a grip called the Western Grip?
Atlantic?? hell NO.
GO PACIFIC!! lol
Nice one
western grip for sell
ill sell you a used western grip on **** for $40!!! or a new one for $60!!!!
this is a great deal that you wont regret.
this thread is crazy, lol
dont bother, go for the eastern grip......cheap labour in the east, youll see the same results
best thread ever!!
so...where can you buy one? i could use one too...
they sell the asia grip in asia , i think they sell the western grip and european grip in europe
I think you should try those stores which sell car tires. I've seen them advertise Continental, so probably they have the Western ones too!
This is too funny
I'm looking to buy some topspin. I heard that it really helps if your shots are all over the place, and my coach thinks highly of it. I know a few who managed to acquire this item, and they are very consistent now. I did a Google search, but all I could find were some video games. Also, I think it also comes in a 'heavy' variety, which is more expensive. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I've got some spare if you want to pay for shipping. Got abit of use out of it but 3/10 condition.
hehe made me chuckle
I think you need to change coaches.
Seriously, that was one pointless post. This thread has been a joke really and we have had our kicks. Its time to let it die.
Right, and I'm resurrecting this thread for those who've never seen it ... :shock:
lol this thread is legend..:mrgreen: Good bump!
but the OP had to go and spoil it by repeating the joke.:?
Let it die already!
I believe that this thread should automatically bump every 4 months
No it shouldn't.
yes it should!!!! genioussss
Lol, you have cancer lol.
Ooooh, i hope this was a joke
good one, since i'm asian, should i buy eastern grip? hehe
It's almost 4 years since this joke has started. Why are we still joking about buying a western grip? Couldn't someone lock this thread?
Aren't we the party pooper :twisted:
Everyone knows sudan wasn't serious. The joke is dead.
i think they should sticky it so when ever you have a bad day it will be at the top for your enjoyment
WOW ahaha i have to say i was reading the first page of this thread and I was cracking up ahaha... you guys are funny
I was scared to even come in here after reading the topic post.
Lol, western grip, your coach must be pulling your leg kiddo.
i gotta a couple call me:twisted:
Made my night. Thanks, Sudan.
I just come from Big5 sport store and bought one South and one North grip, good price. They have it on sale, but you must go there today!!!
i have a few from last seaon in discontinued colors. i will sell them for a reasonable price.
Sorry to bump, but this is still one of the funniest threads I've ever read.
Whether or not the OP was serious or not, It still made me crackup.

Hi, I took this photo of the Night Heron at s'albufera, Mallorca on 13th May, 2013, as it sat in a tree. I would like to know what it has attached to it's breast as it looks very unusual.
probably just leaves stuck in its feathers? :>
I wonder if these are ornamental breast feathers, which may look less featherlike if reduced to the rachis.
There are a few mentions on the internet, but no good photos that I can find of ones similar.
