What is the coverage gap?
Answer: The predicament of 13,000 South Dakotans whose income is too low to purchase subsidized insurance on the exchange and too high for current Medicaid coverage.
About 13,000 South Dakota residents have fallen into the coverage gap. This means their incomes are too low to qualify for tax credits through HealthCare.gov and too high to qualify for Medicaid. They are stuck in the middle with no affordable insurance options unless the South Dakota Legislature decides to accept the federal tax dollars that were set aside to help uninsured families in South Dakota afford coverage[i].
The cost of insurance for these individuals or families ranges from 31% of before payroll-tax income to over 100% of income, depending on their age and number of adults in the household.[ii]

I wrote a post a while ago about the way that the bikes we ride shape us as riders, we may favour sports bikes rather than touring, or twins over fours, but in any case over the years I imagine like me, people will have quite a number of bikes which have shaped their riding and memories, so I thought I'd delve back into the sands of time and put pen to paper on the bikes I've owned and ridden.
Puch Maxi
This barely qualifies as a bike but it had an engine, all of 50cc and was my first foray into the world of two wheels. It was the single speed version (read slow!) and was bought brand new for the princely sum of £105. It had pedals which had to be turned to get it started, and returned miserly consumption of close to 120mpg, which as a teenager with little income was a real plus. I think mine was the N version which didn't even had a speedo, probably because it was capable of speeds only marginally faster than running! I used to have to carry around a plastic bottle with two stroke oil to mix each time I filled up. As a riding experience it can be summed up easily, it wasn't one!, but as a cost effective form of transport for a skint youth, then it was ideal and served it's purpose admirably, till I got fed up of it and bought a proper bike!
Honda CB125T-
The first of many Honda's I was to own over the years.
I don't remember the technical details, but Wikipedia shows it had an OHC engine and a top speed of around 65mph, which after the Puch was mega fast. I do remember having to learn how to use previously unknown bike parts such as a clutch and gears, and mashing them badly for the first few days as I learnt how to ride. It carried me and my tent from the Midlands down to Devon for a rally so can be officially recognised as being my first touring bike.
Yamaha RD250C-
This was my first NEW bike and made an amazing impression on me. The colour was my favourite shade of blue, and the engine howled and emitted plumes of smoke from it's twin exhausts. It's 247cc oil cooled twin it made a massive 30bhp, returned 50mpg and had a top speed of 95mph. If those stats weren't enough to get you excited, then how about it's power band, something new to me after coming from a linear four stroke. The RD was not as exciting or dramatic as the hooligan LC models which came later, but had enough oomph to catch out the unwary, and it did catch me out, twice! I sold it soon after those two offs, but it's always held a strong place in my formative memories, and now that I've got an R1 in the same shade of blue it's like I've gone full circle and returned to the Yamaha fold.
Honda CB250N Superdream
This was a "sensible" buy. We lived on one side of a river and my wife worked on the other. Public transport wasn't easy or convenient and we couldn't afford two cars, so the bike was bought as a commuter tool and worked exceptionally well. I bought it off a work colleague who taught me the pleasures of oil baths for the chain, and I upgraded the worn suspension for a pair of air shocks, which although far superior in performance looked a bit naff in red on a blue bike, as you can tell on the photo above. The bike wasn't particularly exciting and I remember being shocked at having to pay £40 for an exhaust box, which back then was a huge amount of money, BUT, it was safe, reliable, and an ideal choice to have bought to get back in to biking after a few years sabbatical.
Honda CB400N Superdream
As always with bikers, a bigger engine means more fun, and the 250 soon wasn't cutting it for the things we wanted to do. The 400 was a logical step up, with the same Honda reliability and was effectively the same bike as the 250 but with a bigger engine. We took it to the channel islands touring, rode with the local bike club, going farther afield and riding harder and faster, still not a bike to get the pulse rate soaring but it started, stopped, and ran like a dream (sic) and proved a great buy.
ZZR600- May 1997-May 1998 ridden 9,600 kms
The birth of my two children pretty much forced the sale of the 400, but 12 years later and the bug had resurfaced, so I did some research, found a good compromise for price and performance, and bought a ZZR600. Renowned for not having the best suspension, the saving grace for this bike was it's engine. Like many Kwaks it accelerated like the world was coming to an end and it was always a rush letting it rip. It ended up costing me way too much in parts, so using male logic to confuse my better half I "persuaded" her the best thing to do would be to offload it and upgrade!
VFR800-May1998- May 2000 ridden 25,600 kms
Officially this was my reward for passing the IAM Advanced test, but it had been ordered before I took it so I was going to have it come rain or shine! I bought it without having taken a test ride as none were available, and it had been a toss up, between the VFR and the CBR1100XX SuperBlackbird. If I'd have ridden the Bird I'd have bought it, but the VFR was a "sensible" choice ratified by the wife, so it ended up in my garage.
The trend I notice as I am writing this is that the bikes I've bought have all been "sensible" choices, with perhaps the exception of the RD250 a decade previously. The VFR followed that trend. It was a wonderfully efficient machine, the noise of the V4 engine was improved tenfold with the addition of an open Remus exhaust, it was powerful enough to tour on with luggage and a passenger, and when dirty always cleaned up like new. It ran perfectly, never missed a beat, handling improved with the addition of a made to measure Maxton shock, and looked as good the day I sold it, as the day I took it from the showroom floor. And why did I sell it? Because I'd moved to Switzerland and found the engine a little lacking at altitude, so something bigger was required of course!
CBR1100XX- March 2000- March 2004 ridden 63,111 kms
OMG! I knew within 10 yards of leaving the dealer I had to have this bike. The smoothness of the engine, the whispering exhausts, and unbelievable acceleration had me hooked instantly. I loved the stealth black, the paint quality was exceptional, the ride superb, I put the reworked shock from the VFR on it and improved its handling, and never looked back. Sue (the wife) loved it, we toured Europe on it. It ran and ran and ran, overtook lines of cars as if they were stationary, and all I ever did to it was change the tyres, brake pads and have it serviced, often! It only failed me once at around 55,000kms when the regulator stator failed, but that's a common Honda problem and I'll forgive it that one off failure. As a bike it ticked every box I had, it was a dream purchase, and if I hadn't been forced to sell it when I moved to France I would likely still be on it today, what a bike!!
Laverda 750s- March 2002-June 2002 ridden 3,205 kms
From one extreme to another. I wanted a toy to go on track with or do some more sporty riding, but unfortunately this wasn't it! Lots of nice parts like Marchesini wheels and Paoli forks, but the most agricultural POS parrallel twin engine known to man. It stalled, had gutless acceleration, and when friends who rode it confirmed my assertions that it was a pile of poo, it had to go. The only upside was I had bought it heavily discounted as Laverda had just gone bust, again, and I managed to sell it for what I had paid for it!
Honda RVF750 RC45- July 2002-Feb 2012 ridden 21,854kms
The Laverda was gone and thankfully the MV Agusta I had wanted to buy turned out not to be such a good idea so I bought this instead.No comparison. It's true what the bike press wrote about this bike, it's so much better than you'll ever be. On the road it goads you into going round corners faster. The low seating position meant your knees decked everywhere, you became a riding god. It laughed at your best efforts on the road, 100mph, hah! All of this accompanied by a wonderful V4 soundtrack which could deafen you if you used the Micron open pipe and forgot your earplugs.
I used it on track, a lot, but it was completely outclassed by just about every other bike out there. Sure no one else had one and people would come to see what it was and to listen to the awesome sound, but other than it's outstanding handling and rock solid road holding in bends, it became a real disappointment to me, and after 10 years of campaigning it I eventually sold it when I decided nostalgia wasn't a good enough reason to hang on to it. I miss it but am glad I had one, something most people won't be able to say!
CBR1100XX – March 2004-March 2010 ridden 36,597 kms
The original Blackbird was replaced by another one, why try anything else? But sometimes things aren't the same. This was a French bike, originally restricted to 100bhp then derestricted, but it never made it's power the same way as it's Swiss predecessor had. It didn't have cats in the exhausts, the paint was nowhere near as deep or the same quality as the black model, and although ridiculously fast, there was always something that you couldn't put your finger on that made it slightly less good than the old one. It too had the regulator fault, but again it ran forever and only ended up being sold after we were knocked off a GSXR1000 and Sue ended up with a hip problem which meant the seating position became uncomfortable for her whatever we did to try and fix it.
Suzuki GSXR1000K2 -Oct 2005-April 2008 ridden 5,588 kms
A monster engine in a frame and with handling that never seemed to quite be in synch. Torque everywhere, but I was always uneasy with it. A big comfortable bike with a great pillion seat, but it was destined not to stay with us for long after some German lady decided that turning across a junction was a good idea, even though we were on the road in front of her. I repaired it but it had already been replaced by the bike below.
Kawasaki ZX-10R (05) Sept. 2006-Nov. 2007 ridden 4,087 kms
Polar opposites. A bike that handled telepathically. I don't know what the previous owner did to it but it worked like a dream for me, and combined with that famous top end Kwak rush I had some great times with this bike. The howling top end was insane, made even more potent with an aftermarket Shark exhaust. I found myself riding like a maniac every time the road opened up ahead just to listen to the exhaust scream and to feel that huge rush of acceleration. It looked the dogs too in black, although as a pillion bike it sucked big style. I loved it and was gutted when after trying to take it back into France, after having bought it in Germany whilst working there, found there was no way I could import it. What a shame, great bike and worthy of the future classic status the mags tout it as having.
BMW K1200GT July 2008-July 2009 ridden 23,234 kms
Back to sensible again and the only bike Sue was able to get comfortable on. It's built like a bus but handles ridiculously well for such a large machine. ABS, heated seats and grips, cruise control, trip computer, ESA etc etc, it's all there and is a great bike to tour on, as luggage and pillions seem to make no difference whatsoever . BUT, it was a POS. Riddled with problems it was always at the garage, was the first bike that stranded me (due to it's crazy electrical servo assisted brakes), and I was only too glad to do a deal with the dealer to take it back against the purchase of another BM.
BMW K1300GT -July 2009 to date ridden 70,953 kms
You might wonder what possessed me to buy the same bike again? Well this is the 1300 which supposedly corrected all the faults of the 1200 and improved it in many areas, and I have to say by and large its been a good buy. I've written several posts about it here on the blog, so if you want to find out more about long term and long distance ownership, it's all here. I'll summarise by stating I still have it and it's a great tourer, but I'm wary of potential big bills in the future.
Yamaha R1-Feb. 2012 to date- ridden 3,314 kms
Full circle and I'm back in the Yamaha fold with my favourite shade of blue and 182bhp! A long way from the 30bhp of the RD250 back in the 70's but I'm loving it. Bought for the track I'm still learning how to get the best out of it after 10 years on the RC45, but it's coming. I'm consistently 8 seconds a lap faster on this than I ever managed on the RC, which makes me happy, as does having it wide open in fifth at Aragon. I'm hoping for great things and a long life together with this bike!

An inkjet printer using graphene-based ink developed by researchers could herald a breakthrough in flexible electronics.
A team from Northwestern University have recently developed a graphene-based ink that is highly conductive and tolerant to bending, which they have used to print graphene patterns that could be used for extremely detailed, conductive electrodes.
The resulting patterns are 250 times more conductive than previous attempts to print graphene-based electronic patterns and could be a step toward low-cost, foldable electronics.
"Graphene has a unique combination of properties that is ideal for next-generation electronics, including high electrical conductivity, mechanical flexibility, and chemical stability," says Mark Hersam, professor of materials science and engineering at Northwestern's McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science.
"By formulating an inkjet-printable ink based on graphene, we now have an inexpensive and scalable path for exploiting these properties in real-world technologies."
Inkjet printing has previously been explored as a method for fabricating transistors, solar cells, and other electronic components as it is inexpensive, capable of printing large areas, and can create patterns on a variety of substrates, making it an attractive option for next-generation electronics.
Inkjet printing with wonder material graphene – one atom-thin sheets of carbon with exceptional strength and conductivity – is promising, but has remained a challenge because it is difficult to harvest a sufficient amount of graphene without compromising its electronic properties.
Exfoliating, or breaking apart, materials such as graphite often require oxidizing conditions that make the resulting graphene oxide material less conductive than pure carbon.
Pristine unoxidized graphene can be achieved through exfoliation, but the process requires solvents whose residues also decrease conductivity.
The Northwestern researchers instead developed a new method for mass-producing graphene that maintains its conductivity and can be carried out at room temperature using ethanol and ethyl cellulose to exfoliate graphite.
The relatively clean process minimizes residues and results in a powder with a high concentration of nanometre-sized graphene flakes, which is then mixed into a solvent to create the ink.
The researchers demonstrated printing the ink in multiple layers, each 14 nanometres thick, to create precise patterns. The ink's conductivity remains virtually unchanged, even when bent to a great degree, suggesting that graphene inks could be used to create foldable electronic devices in the future.

Washington, DC (PRWEB) December 20, 2013
Today, the board of directors of the Black Women's Health Imperative (Imperative) announced that it has named Linda Blount as the organization's new president and chief executive officer (CEO). Blount brings more than two decades of experience developing innovative and integrated strategic interventions to achieve health equity among communities of color. She has also been vital in directing key health and policy initiatives to address some of the most burdensome health inequities facing Black women today—many of which are core issue areas for the Imperative. Blount will assume her new role on February 1, 2014.
"We are extremely excited to welcome Linda Blount to the Imperative. Her experience and demonstrated leadership make her precisely the right person to lead the Imperative forward," said Dorothy Roberts, Imperative board chair. "She intimately understands the issues that are most important to us and is committed to our goal of achieving health equity in our lifetime."
The Imperative is the only national organization solely dedicated to advancing the health and wellness of the 20 million Black women and girls throughout the United States. Through our work, the Imperative strives to eliminate racial and gender-based health inequities and deepen Black women's resolve in becoming informed decision makers to achieve optimum health and wellness. As president and CEO, Blount will oversee the organization's strategic direction and support implementation of its five-year strategic vision towards health equity.
"The Imperative has an extraordinary legacy as the leading voice for Black women's health and it's with great enthusiasm that I join as the president and CEO," said Blount. "I am profoundly honored to join the Black Women's Health Imperative and very much look forward to working with a talented and dedicated team in the effort to eliminate inequalities in health and advocating for women's health as a social justice issue."
Prior to working for the Imperative, Blount served as vice president for community engagement at the United Way of Greater Atlanta and president for WFG Equity, an interdisciplinary collaborative of practitioners, researchers, business and community thought leaders promoting equity in health, education and well-being. She was also the first national vice president for health disparities at the American Cancer Society, leading the effort to develop the overall health disparities strategic direction for the Society.
Blount succeeds Eleanor Hinton Hoytt, who has been president since 2006. Hinton Hoytt has served in several leadership capacities with the Imperative, including serving as the founding chair of the board of directors in 1984. Most recently, she has been instrumental in advancing the Imperative's sexual and reproductive justice agenda as well as elevating the Imperative as a trusted resource and advocate for improving health care access for Black women. Hinton Hoytt is also the co-author of Health First! The Black Woman's Wellness Guide, a comprehensive health guide that explores Black women's most critical health challenges. Hinton Hoytt will retire at the end of January after 30 years of dedicated service to improving Black women's health.
The Black Women's Health Imperative (Imperative) is the only national organization advancing the health and wellness of our nation's Black women and girls. Through advocacy and public policy, health education, research and leadership development, the Imperative works to advance health equity and social justice for Black women across the lifespan.

Defenders of Wildlife has walked off the Red Wolf Recovery Team, claiming it's headed for a "dead end," meeting only once in the past five months.
The only wild population of red wolves on earth is in a five-county area of eastern North Carolina where they were reintroduced. The population includes only 45 red wolves.
Environmental groups had contested the N.C. Wildlife Resource Commission's management of the nearly extinct population, even filing a lawsuit to restrict coyote hunting in red wolf territory to avoid red wolves being mistaken for coyotes and shot.
The Wildlife Commission in turn questioned whether the red wolf reintroduction is a valid and worthwhile undertaking. So the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service suspended the reintroduction program while conducting a feasibility study to that effect.
According to Defenders of Wildlife, the Red Wolf Recovery Team created to guide the study was a team in name only. The team has members who "seek to undermine red wolf recovery efforts at every turn" and is doing nothing to create "a scientifically-based plan for getting the red wolf back on track," according to Defenders of Wildlife.
Fish and Wildlife, however, says the team is moving forward to come up with a scientifically based plan for the red wolf's future.
"We will continue our committed work with this team and its members to chart a path forward related to the future of the experimental population of red wolves and the overall recovery program based on the best science," said Tom MacKenzie, spokesman for Fish and Wildlife.

Scott Pfeifer-OSHA Silica Standard
By now, it should be old news that there is a new OSHA Standard for Respirable Crystalline Silica (29 CFR 1926.1153). The new standard was effective June 23, 2016. Official enforcement begins June 23, 2018. The standard is aimed at protecting workers exposed to silica at their job, and that they are properly protected. Please join the Central Ohio Chapter Meeting April 19th at the Makoy Center for Past Chairman's Night. Dinner will include, served salad with rolls and butter, braised steak with caramelized onions and crimini mushrooms or roasted cod with blackening spices served with grilled pineapple salsa, and an assorted mini dessert display. Scott Pfeiffer from August Mack Environmental is kind enough to join us to give a presentation discussing:
1 – The difference between dust and Respirable Silica.
2 – How to do the minimum due diligence at your facility.
3 – Where to go from here with tips and strategies.

Fire Training
Recent personnel turnover in the Metal Casting Industry has been making it difficult for everyone to be up to date in fire safety. The AFS Central Ohio Chapter would like to offer a solution.

From Fox News:
TODD STARNES – A U.S. Army training instructor listed Evangelical Christianity and Catholicism as examples of religious extremism along with Al Qaeda and Hamas during a briefing with an Army Reserve unit based in Pennsylvania, Fox News has learned.
"We find this offensive to have Evangelical Christians and the Catholic Church to be listed among known terrorist groups," said Ron Crews, executive director of the Chaplain Alliance for Religious Liberty. "It is dishonorable for any U.S. military entity to allow this type of wrongheaded characterization."
Material presented to soldiers at training session.
The incident occurred during an Army Reserve Equal Opportunity training brief on extremism. Topping the list is Evangelical Christianity. Other organizations listed included Catholicism, Al Qaeda, Hamas, the Ku Klux Klan, Sunni Muslims, and Nation of Islam.
The military also listed "Islamophobia" as a form of religious extremism.
Army spokesman George Wright told Fox News that this was an "isolated incident not condoned by the Dept. of the Army."
"This slide was not produced by the Army and certainly does not reflect our policy or doctrine," he said. "It was produced by an individual without anyone in the chain of command's knowledge or permission."
Wright said after the complaint was lodged, the presenter deleted the slide, and apologized.
"We consider the matter closed," he said.
The incident was made public by a soldier who attended the briefing. He asked for copies of the presentation and sent them to the Chaplain Alliance.
"He considers himself an evangelical Christian and did not appreciate being classified with terrorists," Crews told Fox News. "There was a pervasive attitude in the presentation that anything associated with religion is an extremist."

Last week was interesting. We could not get the key to work. And so Andrew suggested we go to his office building. His office building has open floors, no occupants. Now it's taking the not given, but we were desperate, and it seemed harmless. We left no trace. Andrew, Sita, Alyssa, Jason and Bridget were there. Jason and Andrew did not meditate against the wall, but the rest did, since we did not have any mats or anything. Sita lead the chanting and Andrew the meditation.
Then I gave a little talk on the 5 spiritual faculties. I thought it went well, and there was some good input. Andrew pointed out that Vajramati prefers "confidence" to "faith" because of all the negative associations with that word. Turns out Bridget gave a talk on the 5 spiritual faculties once, and it was good review for her. Sita ran off after the meditation. She said she really needed the meditation. She's very busy with her summer course she's taking. Also her sister is pregnant, ready to pop, we're waiting to hear news.
Anyway, it was an interesting little adventure, and then next week good old Andrew got a key for the new lock, and we were back in our space. A little sangha night adventure.

Not sure if this is new but here goes anyway
Source: Digital Spy
New Super Mario Bros. 2?
Strangely, there are zero new games with Mario as a playable character scheduled between now and the end of 2008. Not counting ports/remakes/etc.
Mario Super Sluggers doesn't count as it's already out in Japan.
If a title like the current Wii version of Warioland would appear I would be totally satisfied. I guess they could either take the 8bit/16bit approach, that would be awesome. But if they did it more in the same cartoony Wario style I wouldn't mind.
It's a funny thing but I guess most Nintendo fans would rather have a mario platformer in the old fashioned 8bit or 16bit style than a full 3d adventure game like Super Mario Galaxy.
lies!!!! all lies!! because you know nintendo has abandoned and hates all h4rdc0r3 g4y-m3r5. like this is total bs they only wanna make waggle mini games now!
Ninty's been hinting this since before E3 i believe.
Yeah. I mean, they can't even find time for one of their 3rd or 4th tier teams to hack away at a Mario spinoff?
Imagine Super Mario World style except quadruple the size.
I miss old skool Mario (SMB3/SMW)
NSMB was OK, but didn't capture the speed element of older Mario games. Give me the Cape or Racoon any day.
'"Making these 'traditional' games is what I am best at," Miyamoto told The Telegraph. "Because games of that nature take upwards of two or three years to make, we always have to keep the teams working on those projects going. '
Clearly the article indicates a longer timeframe has been given for this game, one that would indicate a 3d mario platformer more than anything.
Traditional is the keyword.

Dynamic and larger than life, choral director and music educator Chantel Wright is passionate about music and young people. Motivated by her faith, she settled in Harlem a decade ago and set up a gospel choir for teens from disadvantaged and challenging backgrounds. Chantel also takes gospel music into secure juvenile detention centers in New York so that she can teach young people arrested by the New York Police Department to sing … in harmony.
Chantel demands that the kids in her choir complete their high-school education. Everyone learns to read music and, each year, her choir performs a major choral work, from Verdi's Requiem to Handel's Messiah. Young people under her tutelage find that they are far more capable than they had realized. And Chantel's efforts for those who are released from detention centers continue as those adolescents try and stay on the right side of the law.
All donations for the production and distribution of Harlem Sings are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law.

IPOH – Perak police have rejected the application for a permit by the organiser to hold a debate between former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and Tourism and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Nazri Abdul Aziz which is scheduled to be held in Kuala Kangsar near here this Saturday.
Perak acting police Datuk Hasnan Hassan said the application was denied after taking into consideration factors like safety and security, public order, upholding the rights and people's freedom.
He said Kuala Kangsar police chief ACP Ahmad Termizi Abd Haq received the application from a representative of the organiser Kumpulan Media Karangkraf at 3 pm yesterday as per Section 9(1) of the Peaceful Assembly Act 2012.
"It was stated in the application that the debate between Nazri and Dr Mahathir would be held on March 25 from 2.30pm to 4.30pm at Dewan Maktab Rendah Sains Mara, Kati, Kuala Kangsar.
"The Kuala Kangsar police chief has rejected the application and this will be followed with an official notification which will be hand delivered to the organiser today. The organiser has already been informed of the decision (to deny the permit ) yesterday," he said in a statement here today.
Hasnan said one of the reasons why the application was denied was due to the delay in submitting the notification form as stated under Section 9 (1) of APA 2012.
"The organisers shall produce a notification to the officer in charge namely the district police chief within 10 days before the gathering," he said.
He also said that the selected venue for the debate, the MRSM Kuala Kangsar, a school, was a protected place as stated in the First Schedule (Section 3 APA 2012).
"Besides, eight police reports have been lodged by the public and local residents who are concerned about their own safety as well as of their families," he said.
Hasnan also added that in the Third Schedule of the act, it was stated that such an assembly or dialogue was not included in the list of permitted assemblies and asked all parties involved to abide orders by the Kuala Kangsar police chief.
"Stern action will be taken according to the law if this debate continues," Hasnan said.

The Johnstones – Lump lyrics
Lump sat alone in a boogie marsh
Totally motionless except for her heart
Mud flowed up into Lumps pyjamas
She totally confused all the passing piranhas
Lump lingered last in line for brains
And the ones she got were sorta rotten and insane
Small things so sad said birds could land
Is Lump fast asleep or rocking out with the band

Thread: UK NFL Coverage
UK NFL Coverage
I just got back from the UK and watched the coverage last week on Sky and Channel 5. It sucks that, because the 4.15 game was from Fox coverage, they couldn't show Baltimore highlights. I had to watch the bottom of the screen and finally call a board member in the US to find out what was going on! Having said that, I didn't think Sky did a bad job.
But Channel 5 - who is that Irish guy who was presenting? He looked like he'd got out of bed, not shaved, gone to the pub then come to the studio to piss off the American guy who was with him. Funny stuff! I'd rather have had him calling the game than switching to Tony Kornhole et al at ESPN. Shame they couldn't broadcast U2 and Green Day - sounded like it was good.
Re: UK NFL Coverage
You know I watched that Channel 5 twat.And I decided to rather watch the monday night game on NFL Game Pass on my PC,instead of having to put up
with the look and sound of that loser.
I'm glad we didn't meet up Fells,cause I've been suffering with the stinking flu.
{From Wed's on.The doctor asked if I had been sticking my tongue any place I shouldn't have been,while I was over in Baltimore }
Went back to work today.But still felt like crap.Good to see you got back safely.
I was watching the Ravens live on my pc,but was having local area 2 disconnections when something important was happening.No not when there was 10 million adverts.BUt during important downs.:grbac:Put the smile back on your face.This is a 60 minute ball game.
Re: UK NFL Coverage
TD - I was in Copthorne for the first few days. I thought of contacting you, but was in London and then out with my dad the rest of the time, and didn't have time to make it into Crawley, unfortunately. Next time we're over we'll have to go for a pint or two. Hope you feel better soon, matey.
Re: UK NFL Coverage
Thats what I thought.Be happy to have a pint with you,if you bring CJ over maybe the four of us can have a meal out.I'm sure my wife would get on famously with CJ,and maybe CJ can influence Deb to becoming more of a Raven wife.;)
Gotta go,the wife has just got home looks like she has my flu bug.Time to head to the hills.Put the smile back on your face.This is a 60 minute ball game.

Re: UK NFL Coverage
What is with this flu bug in the UK? I was in Reading last week and it seems the whole office called out sick. Here I thought they were just avoiding me.
As for catching games, Slingbox is the way to go. It worked in the UK, as well as when I headed to Romania later in the week.
Re: UK NFL Coverage
John,I don't know where I picked it up from,Baltimore,Iceland,or when I returned to England.I never bumped into anyone coughing and sneezing that I know of.But if you say its going around here.Then I will take your word for it.
It just shows you,if someone brought in a lethal virus to our country.
How quick it would wipe people out.
I'm starting to feel a little stronger,as the wife slides down the coughing and sneezing ladder of despair.[If looks could kill].
Here now ends my sick blog.Put the smile back on your face.This is a 60 minute ball game.

Panda Bear Gets Vaguely Romantic, Vaguely Sentimental, Generally Vague
Hear "Last Night at the Jetty."
Things known conclusively about this Panda Bear song: It is called "Last Night at the Jetty." It will be on Tomboy, his next solo album, out in April. It is a rerecording of an earlier seven-inch version. It is lilting, casually propulsive, and sort of sounds like the chillwavier cousin of Animal Collective's "Peacebone," but mostly because both songs make it clear that AC is not messing around when they name-check J. Dilla. Things not known conclusively: What, exactly, is Panda Bear singing about? It sort of sounds like a sad love song, but the overdubbing on the vocals make it tough to pick out a lot of the lyrics; there are, however, references to dreams and "good times." Also, the title suggests someone coming to terms with some consequential event the day after its occurrence. But what kind of things do people do at jetties? Was there drinking at the jetty? Did something crazy happen while everyone was drunk at the jetty? Also, what exactly is a jetty? The Wikipedia entry for jetty is only confusing us further. Anyway, hear the song at Pitchfork.

Host of the Valar
(Redirected from Host of the West)
The Host of the Valar was the mighty army that overthrew Morgoth and his legions at the end of the First Age.
The army itself was composed of Vanyar under Ingwion[1], and the remaining Noldor of Valinor, under Finarfin. Manwë's herald Eönwë came with them, and possibly other Maiar and some Valar also joined the Host.[note 1]
They were brought to Middle-earth by the ships of Falmari, who took pity on the words of Elwing; however the Falmari refused to fight beside the Noldor, remembering the First Kinslaying.
This force was also known as the Host of the West, and met Morgoth's Host of the North in the titanic clash known as the War of Wrath. The forces of Valinor were assisted by the Great Eagles and Earendil and were victorious.[2]
- ↑ No other Ainur are mentioned, but Eönwë's presence alone is an indication that other Maiar would accompany him, if not some Valar as well. This is implied by the name "Host of the Valar" itself as well as the cataclysmic result of the War which drowned Beleriand. Cf. Robert Foster, The Complete Guide to Middle-earth, p. 202 and Michael Martinez's article: " It would be reasonable to infer that some of the Valar also accompanied the Host — presumably Tulkas and Oromë would have wanted to be included in that conflict."

The Jonas Brothers Go Looking for Treasure
On the set of their reality show, 'Living the Dream.'
Hey, remember the Jonas Brothers? The tween-set rockers have been laying low, with Nick "the talented one" Jonas even striking out on a solo tour. The nation can breathe easy, though, as the young heartthrobs will soon be reunited and back in the spotlight: Earlier this week, all three Jonases were in Malibu shooting the upcoming season of their show
Living the Dream JONAS, and we've got photos from the set. It's technically reality television, which is why The bros are doing regular, everyday, all-American stuff like playing baseball, talking to girls, and using metal detectors to find treasure buried underneath a comically fat man. Enjoy!

The Biggest Loser – So The Trainers On The Piss Not On The Pist In Switzland
The Biggest Loser trainers are not as pure as we are led to believe. Apparently when filming in Switzerland recently they missed a production meeting because they were enjoying the local lager.
The Herald Sun reports:
IT was trouble on The Biggest Loser set last week in Switzerland after the four trainers missed a crucial safety briefing following an afternoon drinking session out on the town.
Production sources told the Sunday Herald Sun that producers were furious at trainers Shannan Ponton, Michelle Bridges, Tiffiny Hall and Steve "The Commando" Willis after they missed the meeting, preferring to stay out at the local drinking spots
I thought Tiffiny Hall didn't drink – as last year on the show she made a big deal about having to have a beer.
Anyway I hope for punishment I hope they were made to eat cheese fondue, followed by potato rosti with a huge chocolate torte all washed down by full strength coca cola.
Thanks June for sending the article in.

There was nothing in the article that said tiffiny hall was drinking. Please read full article.

From my understanding Tiffiny did not drink (she doesn't drink) and production crew said that she was the only one comprehensible when they were getting ready for filming.

I think the trainers except Tiffiny never said they don't drink, only they don't condone drinking excessively.

None of those contestants deserve a trip to Switzerland – they aren't working hard enough ….
- 5 littlepetal { 03.19.12 at 12:13 pm }
I am also surprise that Channel 10 is spending more money this year and yet the contestants this year have no charisma at all. Skiing will definitely be one of the challenges.

Andrea-You really want RR to blog about the Biggest Loser. Is it you don't have the time to watch it? Not having a go at you but I read few of your comments asking RR to recap BL.
- 9 Andrea { 03.20.12 at 3:22 pm }
Yeah I do watch it, I'm just getting sick of MKR all the time, its more interesting to have a variety of shows to blog about, especially when something interesting has happened on Biggest Loser. I agree with you Littlepetal that this year's contestant's don't have much charisma but they're all we've got unfortunately.Pretty soon both these shows will be finished and then I'll look forward to Celebrity Apprentice!
- 10 littlepetal { 03.21.12 at 10:35 am }
Yes, will be looking forward to Celebrity Apprentice now that MKR has gone down the drain.

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Emergency workers were investigating a hazardous material spill at Tesla Inc's Gigafactory battery plant in Nevada on Monday, but there were no significant injuries and no threat to the public, authorities said.
"There was no threat to the public, no plumes or anything," said Joe Curtis, director of emergency management for Nevada's Storey County, who said the fire department was on the scene identifying the spilled hazardous material.
Curtis said the incident was isolated to a small area of the sprawling building located outside of Sparks, Nevada, which is ramping up production of batteries for the electric vehicle maker. Tesla did not immediately return an email seeking comment.

From Birmingham, Alabama, USA:
I am a 34 year old female with type 1 diabetes for 13 years who has started weightlifting, with a goal of possibly becoming a body builder. I wear an insulin pump, use Humalog, and have no complications. I would like more information on whether it is safe to take some of the "bodybuilding supplements" (specifically, creatine and HMB). Do you have any suggestions on where to find more information on their use in people with type 1 diabetes?
There are short-term studies which show creatine has the ability to improve insulin sensitivity. However, a high-protein diet is not well studied in long-term diabetes. Intuitively, this may have negative effects on kidney function. If someone has type 1 diabetes and decides to do this anyway, I would follow urine tests for microalbumin regularly. In addition, retinopathy of significant proportion can theoretically worsen with heavy weight lifting. Certainly, I would not be in favor of irregular use of anabolic steroids.

Fenway Park's left field fence wasn't threatened last night – not even when Goose Tatum and his globetrotting friends went into their patented baseball cutup.
All the Goose did was punch the ball over the third base dugout into the grandstand. The antic was worth the biggest cheer of the night from the crowd of 13,344 – 565 less than the Boston Garden's capacity – which turned out to see Boston's first big outdoor basket ball double-header.
The Globetrotters beat the All Stars 61-41 – but no one cared about that. In the first game the Boston Whirlwinds – without any one from Boston on the team – defeated the House of David, with three clean-shaven traitors on the team, 47-46. And no one cared much about that either.
The crowd came to see the basket ball spectacle known as the Globetrotters and thrilled again to gyrations of Tatum, Leon Hillard and Sweetwater Clifton.
Tatum still gets 18 points
The Trotters' own court was spread from in front of home plate to the edge of the grass in front of second.
For most of the first half the Trotters played straight basket ball, enlivened by the constant jostling between Togo Palazzi, ex-Holy Cross star, and the irresponsible Tatum.
With four minutes to go in the half, Clifton cut loose some of his typical one-handed ball tricks. With two minutes to play in the third period, Leon Hillard put on his dribbling show, eventually finishing on his back, but still outfoxing an all-star from the unorthodox position.
Tatum put on his routine with four minutes to play. He faked an injury, but it was just an excuse to go to the bench and come back to the foul line with a balloon and elastic band. The referees took that away from him.
Then he went to the bench and came back with a weighted balloon that did goofy things. They took that away from him, too. Then he hid behind one of the backboard uprights and took a length-of-the-court pass for a lackadaisical basket. Then he went over to a box seat, shook hands with a gentleman and took his sun cap.
He still found time to score 18 points.
Tatum and his Globetrotting friends were the entertainers – from the moment they came through a hoop to the strains of Dark Town Strutters Ball until they paraded off the court to the strains of the crowd's applause.

VINYLPHOBES will tell always point out that the CD or MP3 will never have the jaw-dropping impact of the 12" album sleeve.

Towerfall Ascension: PS4 Review
Released by Sony Computer Entertainment
Platform: PS4
It amazes me at the moment how the best games are the ones without the flashy graphics, the deep dive gameplay and the durability of a classic.
While Fez was a platforming blast from the past, this is a simple game of archery and strategy - with a hint of multiplayer thrown in if you so desire. All you have to do is fire a few arrows and see off some bad guys in Towerfall - sounds simple? Well, it sort of is, if you know what you're doing.
You've got limited arrows to let loose on the creatures heading your way, and thanks to the way the screen's set up you can go in on any angle - a la Pac-man - and disappear between levels if you so desire. But once your arrows are gone, you have the option to rush around your tomb-like location to grab them back. Simplicity is the name of the game here really - but the primitive graphics belie a game that's easy to play and an addiction that's easy to get engrossed in.
Power ups pepper the game as well, and occasionally they help, but once you bust out the multiplayer mode, you can see how the competition starts to really kick in as the pressure to grab these and arrows really starts to kick in.
Simple and playable, Towerfall Ascension isn't anything more than just good fun - its simplicity is duplicitous as you battle on. For an archery game, it really does hit a bullseye.
