Chesterfield find their field of dreams
Chesterfield chairman Barrie Hubbard realised 27 years ago that his club needed to move to a new ground.
It has taken a lot longer than he initially anticipated but, after several unsuccessful attempts to secure a new site, the Spireites finally left rickety old Saltergate in the summer after 139 years and moved into their brand new 10,379-capacity b2net Stadium.
At first glance, the move appears to have transformed the Derbyshire club, who currently top the League Two table with the best home record in the Football League. Only Crewe have left the new arena with a share of the spoils following a remarkable 5-5 draw.
But the impact extends far beyond what happens on the pitch. Just as Liverpool are desperate to increase revenue by leaving Anfield for a bigger stadium, so the Spireites are hoping to reap the rewards of their relocation to a modern facility.

"If you never visited Saltergate, then you missed out on a treat but we had to leave because we were losing money every year," said Hubbard, who is in his second spell as chairman at the club. He was not involved with the club during the infamous period when Darren Brown took the club to the brink of extinction.
In the end, as is the way in the modern game, it all boils down to money. At Saltergate, the club only generated income on the 40 or so days a year when they hosted games. Now they have year-round revenue streams.
"We do not have any corporate boxes as such but what we have done is build a conference and banqueting centre and fastened a ground on to it," said Hubbard.
More than 5,000 people are booked in to attend Christmas parties at the stadium during December, while the club also has a licence to hold weddings.
Chesterfield are not unique in moving to a new purpose-built ground. Of the teams in League One and League Two, Southampton, Colchester, MK Dons, Oxford, Burton and Shrewsbury have all done it in the last 10 years.
Colchester left Layer Road for the Weston Homes Community Stadium in 2008. They had 40 hospitality places at the old ground but now have 650 and serve an average of between 250 and 300 meals at each home game. They also have a range of rooms, boasting a capacity from 10 to 400, that have hosted comedy nights, bowls and sportsmans dinners, while the club will stage an amateur boxing event in January.
"The move has broadened our horizons," U's media manager matt Hudson told me. "Layer Road was not a place where we would be able to grow."
Colchester, whose ground cost £14.2m to build, have four charity partners that are able to hire stadium facilities at cost. Organisations such as the National Blood Service use it.
Work will soon start, too, on kitting out the east stand as a community-orientated facility. There will be a gym, restaurant, police station, classrooms and children's play area. There is a clear sense of pride in Hubbard's voice as he tells me all this.
"It has given the entire town a lift," he said. "It has given everyone a new lease of life."
It is a view shared by veteran striker Jack Lester, who has been at Chesterfield since 2007 and is desperate to mark his time at the club with a promotion.
"The people of Chesterfield are really proud of the new ground," said Lester, who scored the winner in the opening league fixture at the new ground. "We are quite a small club but the new ground can help us move on to the next stage."
The makers of The Damned United were looking for a ground as antiquated as the old Baseball Ground in Derby to film scenes from the film, which focused on Brian Clough's ill-fated 44-day reign as manager of Leeds United in 1974. They found it at Saltergate, which served as the Baseball Ground, Elland Road and, remarkably, the old Wembley at various points during the film.
Saltergate was a tight and compact stadium, often boasting a good atmosphere on match day, particularly midweek. Lester joked that it looked as though the last renovation at the old ground had taken place shortly after its construction in 1871.
Players often trained at Saltergate on Friday and would rush to the showers afterwards in the knowledge the hot water would soon run out. The squad would then make their way home to eat lunch. Now the players eat lunch together.
Lester says it means they spend more time as a group talking about forthcoming games and believes it has contributed to their good form. It is a small detail but important.
I asked Chesterfield fans on 606 what they thought about the move to the new ground. CSCFC summed up the difference when he said: "Saltergate - pick the dead spiders off the loo roll. B2net - clean, warm and comfortable."

At Saltergate, you were out on the street within seconds of leaving the ground. At the new ground, the concourse boasts bar and food kiosks, as well as flatscreen televisions.
Bransoj said: "It has changed my match-day experience completely. I used to leave the pub five minutes before the game and wander in as we kicked off. Now I'm there 45 minutes before, using the concourse facilities and putting the money back in the club."
But perhaps the most ringing endorsement for the new stadium comes in the form of increased attendances. The club have an identical home record to last season following their opening eight home fixtures, with seven wins and one draw. Yet the average crowd in 2010 is 6,244, in contrast with 3,593 a year ago.
Hubbard thought an acid test of the new ground's pulling power would be the recent midweek match against Accrington. Last season, the match, which the home team won 1-0, was played on a Saturday and watched by 3,104. This year, 6,034 passed through the turnstiles on a wet and miserable Tuesday to watch the Spireites thump their opponents 5-2. When I first spoke to Hubbard, he was busy helping out with the sale of tickets.
I get the impression Hubbard is a man with his feet firmly on the ground. Towards the end of our conversation, he sounded a note of caution. The cost of the ground has been financed privately, involving what Hubbard described as some "friendly loans" that have not yet been fully repaid. On the field, it will be many months remain before an excellent start to the season becomes real achievement.
Hubbard would not be drawn on the difference in match-day revenue since the move, at least not in terms of actual figures, but he did concede that it had at least doubled. He was also at pains to point out that outgoings had also increased by more than 100%.
But almost three decades after the chairman initially thought it was time to move, he might just have overseen Chesterfield's very own field of dreams.

An excellent article there Paul, and one which is pertinent to my club, Stockport County.
We don't own our ground, Edgeley Park, anymore, a fact that has hamstrung us financially, as we don't get any non-matchday revenues.
Edgeley Park is a wonderful little stadium though and I know many don't want us to move away as it is a special place for us, but I feel we need to follow Chesterfields example and build a new ground.
The only way we'll be able to acheive that though is with the help of Stockport Council. We simply don't have the money to build a stadium ourselves at the moment, yet both County and Sale Sharks need a new stadium, so it's up to the council to help us out, grant us some land and help us build a community stadium, one which both clubs can use, where the revenue streams are shared evenly between the clubs and one which the community as a whole can be proud of.

I know it's necessary for many clubs to do this and some manage to piggy back their grounds on other developments or joint deals with supermarkets etc. However, despite the increase in revenue and non-matchday income, surely some clubs are saddled with immediate debt? Even if it is in the form of long term mortgage?
Good luck to Chesterfield and the like, although a part of me mourns the fact that so many new grounds at the lower levels look the same and a bit souless.

It's nice to see the lower league clubs taking a more refreshing attitude to getting people in to there grounds. Instead of taking the tired old line of

This guy has gone:
"You know what, if we make our ground a nice place to come, people will turn up." And so it has proved.

What a cash cow the game has become. I sat and wondered, why when grounds were purpose built all those years ago, they didn't allow for room to include hospitality and concessions etc.
Then it dawned on me, the local community got a huge share of the revenue. The pubs, the shops etc near by all benefit. This is sadly no longer the case with newly built stadiums.
Everton miss out on a huge proportion of revenue due to Goodison not being fit for purpose. But all the local businesses must make a fortune.
This begs the question? Do the clubs have the right to all this money as they are the people providing the attraction to the area, or should the communities be entitled to a share of this revenue?
Using Goodison as an example, I dread to think what would happen to the area surrounding the ground should Everton move.

Took my lad to his 1st ever game – it was the 5-5 draw with Crewe. Told him that every game would be an anti-climax from that point forwards.
Echo the points made in the blog, the facilities for a small club are perfect. Great atmosphere and access to an from the stadium is spot-on. Can be back in card home in 15 minutes – Old Trafford takes a bit longer!
The test will come when results start to slip, attendances will obviously fall back. The difficulty is knowing how far to stretch the club in terms of prospects and vision. Not having the ambition and limiting financial debt against risking more on facilities and team building for greater potential rewards. Nobody wants to do a Leeds and have growth that is not matched by performances but there is also no reason why the Championship is not a medium-term prospect.
There is also the difficulty in an improving 'smaller' club that the key assets are in the shop window – already manager John Sheridan, as a former Owl, is attracting attention from Hillsborough, and top scorer Davies has apparently been watched by Sheffield United 3 times. I guess this is the catch 22 quandary; the better a club is playing the more attention they bring to themselves.

Fantastic to see an article written about Chesterfield so thanks for that Paul.
It will be impossible for me to ever forget Saltergate. Such a wonderfully bad ground. The wooden benches in the main stand and the open air toilets leading away from the Kop.
I have to admit I've witnessed my fair share of poor games there. I've also witnessed some moments of pure magic. The second leg of the play off semi final against Mansfield springs to mind.
My excitment of Darren Brown taken over turned to anger towards him after what he did. How could he rip off a small club?
Really pleased that we're at a new stadium now. A long time coming but it looks fantastic. It will never replace Saltergate for me though. There's a lot to be said for character.

Cracking article, brought a tear to my eye when the pic of the old ground popped up.
I am yet to visit the new stadium as I no longer live in the area but will be getting to a game over the festive season.
One thing that other clubs looking to make a similar move should note is that the new stadium wasn't placed out of town, it's no longer in the town centre but it's still within the community and has fairly good access to the transport links in the area.
Come on you Spireites!!

Great article as usual Paul. I think a couple of people responded to the very interesting comment re:attaching all these 'extra' facilities to the new grounds. The obvious plus side is that the football club returns to it's central role in the community whilst raising extra funds for itelf (hopefully they wont all go into players' pockets?) - but the negative side of putting local pubs, bars, reception halls, nurseries etc etc...out of business isn't fully appreciated.
Tomefccam #5 made a superb point about the financial effect Everton moving out of Goodison will have on local businesses plus factor in the effect of building yet another massive Tesco superstore on the new stadium will have on the surrounding population of any new site. Further add any potential 'new Anfield' swallowing up local firms and the little man ends up struggling against corporate giants. There is a real social-economic arguement to be looked at..our high streets are already ghost towns.

As an outsider (Forest fan), the visits we had to Saltergate were entertaining in the past, but I can only say that my visit to the B2Net (the 2-1 win against Southend), was a cracking experience. Its an easy ground to get to, and I was away within a fraction of the time it took to escape from other 'new build' stadia.
The effect it can have on the community at large in Chesterfield and North Derbyshire can only be a good thing, and if Chesterfield manage to keep their excellent form up, and get promoted this season, then the effect that the new ground has had can be seen greatly.
Its great to see such a down to earth club as Chesterfield getting such great publicity, and the Chesterfield fans I speak to don't seem to have a bad word to say about their Chairman, which is a rarity in any sport.

Interesting as ever Paul and some good points raised by the posters.
My team, Bolton Wanderers, admitted recently that they lost touch with their fans over the past decade. Financial issues, essential top-flight survival and Gary Megson's reign all contributed. Owen Coyle has made a real effort to promote the family feeling and the club is working hard out in the community... We just need a another 'white hot' cup run now.

Excellent article and summarises they way the townsfolk are indeed feeling lifted by the new stadium, the whole match day experience is fantastic and the amount of families now attending proves this. I loved Saltergate but this place kills the old place hands down.
Why tell your sone that "every game after the Crewe one would be an anti climax"? Ive seen better games since, way too early to judge that!!!
Maybe it was exciting for a local 'neutral' who follows United? Never mind, when/if we gain promotion, our emotion and pride will be much larger and heartfelt than a 'local' United fan could ever feel, thats because the club is close to our heart and heritage and is part of us and our community, as opposed to clinging on to another a club from another part of the country.
Id consider celebrating a club's success who are 60 miles up the road an anti climax!!!!
That said, your additional support is always welcome!

Excellent article and focus on a good honest 'local' club. A good insight in to the real world of professional football where there has to be a lot of work put in commercially to sustain a club.
Great to see them doing so well on pitch as nothing obviously sells like success. I really hope Chesterfield get promotion - I have always liked John Sheridan and Tommy Wright so I wish them every success.
Good luck Chesterfield.

That's a really well researched and written piece Paul. As a Brighton fan I remember well the dark old days of Darren Brown at Chesterfield (or Cheaterfield as we then labelled them) and there are a lot of parallels to be drawn between both clubs and their respective struggles. Having read your article and some of the associated ones relating the the fraudulent Brown era at Chesterfield it is now, with hindsight, easy to see how the fans were hoodwinked and coerced into thinking Brown was the saviour of the club and the prospect of a better future. I recall a lot of animosity between Brighton and Chesterfield fans then and to a lesser degree in subsequent years. Chesterfield seem to have come through it all and are now properly managed on and off the field and with a good stadium. As a Brighton fan who held much of that resentment I am now happy to say I no longer do and wish Chesterfield and their fans every success and a bright future.

Very noble dear friend, thanks for the kind words. I must admit that at the time it was very frustrating to be labelled as 'Cheats', as we the fans, felt the most 'cheated'.
Very dark and sour era at the club and one that we struggled to come through, but... here we are a decade or so on and things look rosier than ever.
Good luck with your ground move too, look forward to visiting in the future I hope, certainly be more enjoyable than my last visit to the Withdean on a blustery midweek watching you lift the trophy we all thought at one point was coming our way!

I think this is the way smaller clubs have to go to make money. Non matchday revenue can have a big impact on these smaller clubs and a new ground can only benefit the playing side of a club, helping to attract new players, sponsers and just lifting the players, management and most importantly the fans.
Surely clubs can co-operate with local councils to help build something that will help the clubs and the local community as a whole.

Good article, Paul, and well done and good luck to Chesterfield.
As a Stokie, I remember a few visits to stand on Saltergate's uncovered away end (it always seemed to rain on us, no matter what time of year!) during our time down in English football's third tier. A proper old fashioned English football experience it was, but time's change and we all have to move on or suffer the consequences - it sounds like all at Chesterfield are doing a grand job of doing the former.
It takes a while for a new ground to feel like home (as it did with us when we moved to the Britannia in 1997 from the dear old Victoria Ground, with all its memories), but a bit of success on the field, and the corollary of increased attendances, doesn't half help. We got that eventually, at long last, and it now sounds like Chesterfield may get some of the same and achieve promotion this season - good luck!

i take other posters comments re football being a cash cow and having a big corporate aspect (which i b elive it does) but the cfc chariman seems grounded, and there is no grandiose talk of 'champions league in five years. just look at the number of clubs who have gone, or very nearly, gone to the wall in recent years - i dont like the money thing in football but i suppose things have to move with the times.

i doubt that chesterfields success has got anything to do with the stadium. colchester turned layer road into a fortress at the peak of their success a few years back. conversely they struggled when they moved to the new ground, but that was because of the players and the management, not because of the setting.
i miss layer road it was easier to get to and it was in the heart of the community. the new ground is the football equivalent of a soulless out of town shopping mall but they are trying to stay in touch with the fans, its just harder now

Now then,
Many thanks for all your comments - and sorry for not responding on Friday. I was out of the office and did not use a computer all day, which does not happen all that often these days.
I wouldn't say that Barrie Hubbard was all that expansive with his answers (which isn't a bad thing) but it was obvious he cared deeply about Chesterfield.
The idea behind the article was that it is not just the top clubs that need new stadiums to grow and prosper. I think it is just as important for a modest-sized outfit like Chesterfield.
However, tomefccam (post 5) raises an interesting point about the impact a ground has on its surrounding community. Modern stadiums tend to be out of town and, thus, are divorced from the local community. I'm told that Chesterfield's new ground is on an old brownfield site and not too far from town. That could make a big difference.

Many grounds lose their soul and atmosphere...Leicester City (my club being one) where fans want us back at Filbert Street.
But like B2NET, the Walkers is the modern stadium that you need to raise revenue...without the Walkers, I dont think Leicester would have attracted King Power Investment or Sven for that matter.
Also my local Team Nuneaton Town were in the same situation, the old Ground at Manor Park was good for 75 or so years but was falling into dispreair and with a main road, canal, back gardens at either side...couldnt redevelop it.
So moved flung to the furtherst reaches of Nuneaton to an industrial estate to an all purpose stadium (which used to be owned by the Rugby Team), of course it lacks the atmsophere of Manor Park but it has helped Nuneaton despite the rebuilding of Nuneaton Town from the ashes of the debt crippled Nuneaton Borough, Liberty Way is like B2NET....modern facilities and all clubs need them.

But we have planning permission to build the new stadium half a mile from our current home Ashton gate on "green belt"(19 and a half years ago it was being used as a tip) this after the council agreed it was the only place it could realisticaly be built. We've now been told by an inspector that the whole 42 acres should be turned into a village green?! The biggest village green in Europe! The week after the club reported losses in the last financial year of nearly 12 million the importance of a new stadium has never been more clear. This is clear from the top to the bottom leagues.

I first went to Saltergate in November, 1967. Chesterfield were playing South Shields in the FA Cup (won 2-0). It was a cold, grey, blustery day. That season I also saw them play Rochdale and later, in 1971, Sheffield United in a friendly. A lifetime later (emigration to Australia, marriage, kids, army, travel) I went again to Saltergate to watch Chesterfield v Gillingham (April, 2009). The ground had not changed one bit in the forty years since I'd last been there. Everything looked the same. There was not one new development. It was as though time had stood still. Magic!

Excellent article, and nice to see something about lower-league clubs for a change, but as an Oxford fan I can promise that the move to a new stadium doesn't guarantee either instant success or increased revenue. Of course, it helps if the club owns its own ground rather than paying rent and maintenance charges to a company specifically set up for the purpose, especially when that company is owned by a former, rather than a current, chairman.
Still, it's good to see Chesterfield doing well, but unfortunately I won't be able to see the new stadium for myself this Tuesday, when hopefully Oxford can do to Chesterfield what we did to Port Vale a few weeks back.

Why is it that most of our best ideas come when we're in the shower? It's simple – there's no phone, no music, no kids, no partner (except that one time in Paris)… and for pretty much the only time during a day your mind has literally nothing to do but THINK.
The thoughts we have in the shower are sometimes life-changing breakthroughs. How many billion-dollar business ideas came to people in the shower? How many simple solutions to intransigent problems? How many lyrics to hit songs? When the warm water flows down on us from our wonderful rain shower head, THAT'S when we do our best work.
And there's the other side. Some shower thoughts are so trivial and pointless, yet so perceptive and wise, that they've spawned entire corners of the internet devoted to them. Here's a short collection of our favorites:
The human brain is so complex we can not even replicate it in a lab, yet it can run purely on hot pockets and pop-tarts.
The modern equivalent of "A watched pot never boils" is "A watched file never downloads".
Fish tanks are reverse submarines.
Humans are really bad at recharging; it takes about 8 hours charge for 16 hours of use.
A ton of people is literally 12-15 people.
When you say "forward" or "back", your lips move in those directions.
Clapping is just hitting yourself because you like something.
When jogging, we put on special clothes so people don't think we are running from or to something.
In order to fall asleep, you have to pretend to be asleep.
Have you had any deep and meaningful thoughts while enjoying a rain shower? Get in touch and let us know! We'd love to hear them. (The best ones will be added to this list, if you give permission.)

About UsLiving Coasts is the UK's only coastal zoo dedicated to protecting marine and coastal species across the world. Based in Devon we provide a home to an amazing range of bird and animal species including penguins, seals, wading birds, blue spotted rays, cuttlefish, otters and seahorses.
As a conservation charity we work on a number of projects, both in the UK and abroad, aimed at raising the profile of endangered species, working on captive breeding programmes and environmental education for all ages. We encourage Fair Trade products and green ethics.
We contribute to "Project Penguin", a partnership project aimed at boosting wild populations of African penguins.
On the other side of the world we are working in the Philippines on the Bakhwan Eco-project helping to replant mangroves and thus providing new habitat for wildlife as well as protecting mangrove people from the effects of tropical storms and tidal waves.
Here at home we work with other local organisations on activities and events to encourage people to take an active role in protecting their coastal environment.
Planet Penguin is our on-line shop, launched in 2009; unsurprisingly it sells all things penguin! All the profits from the sales are ploughed back into the zoo and our conservation projects so buying a gift from us means not only will you be giving someone a fantastic present but also you are contributing to our work to protect the marine environment across the world.

Big business as usual
Phil Neville said losing the Cup Final 'felt like relegation'. No, mate, it doesn't. Take it from a Boro fan, lad.
In 1997, we lost a Cup Final and we were relegated. The relegation felt like,er, relegation, and the losing of the Cup Final felt like losing the Cup Final. I know as a United old boy you never really had to bother about such trivialities but let me tell you, you haven't got a clue, son.
Having said that, I didn't meet one man, woman, child, pet or even numpty who wanted Chelsea to win on Saturday. Hiddink aside there were absolutely no reasons to back the Londoners.
Even your average pundit (and there are a lot of us about) tipped the Toffees to sneak a win, and that had to be about sentiment rather than logic.
Everton had beaten Liverpool, Villa, Boro, West Ham and Manchester United's crèche to get to the final. Chelsea had had one little squabble with Arsenal.
Everton had lost Arteta, Yakubu and even Jagielka for the final. Chelsea had lost Joe Cole and a Champions League semi-final, the latter with all the class of 2am Teesside lasses tumbling out of a taxi.
Everton have a manager and a chairman who have done that thing that good managers do: built a side up slowly and steadily over the years and got players to perform at their very best for long periods. The chairman is just a fan with a bit of clout and nous.
Chelsea change coaches like Posh Spice changes outfits; they waft attaché cases full of cash under the noses of Europe's best and wait for someone to bite.
The squad is a collection of talented millionaires whose team spirit seems to crumble like an overdone flapjack whenever things go wrong. And the owner sits up in the exec boxes smirking like a demonic schoolboy as his latest toy brushes aside the competition.
It had to be Moyes's time.
Except that, man for man, Chelsea are a better side. Except that, when it's 41 degrees Celsius and you team is at its best when it pelts about the park for 90 minutes, you fear for their chances. Chelsea aren't Barca but they know how to keep the ball.
I sat with an Everton fan throughout Saturday's game (he would have gone to the match but Wembley needed them 40,000 tickets for a bunch of people who didn't give a toss who was playing, didn't they?) and as soon as Drogba equalised he virtually resigned himself to his fate.
He wasn't being disloyal or unsupportive - after Saha's opener, the quiet 44-year old bounced about the Blue Bell like a fly in a jam jar - but reality kicked in.
Even then you felt that Chelsea would just click into gear and move remorselessly forward to victory. Everton weren't bad and put a lot of effort in, but they made two chances all match and it was a comfy 2-1 in the end.
So why is it depressing? Here's why, I reckon.
There's the Big Four, right? One of them's going to win the League. Fact. (Bit inappropriate quoting Rafa there but you get my point). All of them will be in the Champions League quarter-finals. Fact. One of them will almost certainly win the FA Cupand their second team will reach the Carling Cup final.
It's not just about supporting the underdog anymore. These days you support the underclass underclass. If your team finished between fifth and 92nd and you're up against first-fourth, expect healthy support from 99% of the population.
Everton are the most successful not very well-funded team in England and they've won nowt. (Maybe Arsenal can be included as they haven't spent the sums the other three have and have won sweet Tony Adams 'n' all in the last four years.)
The inability to compete unless some bewilderingly rich someone or other who you've never heard of wraps a blindfold round his eyes and sticks a pin in your club just grinds you down.
While Man United have got the architects in for the Trophy Cabinet extension, and Rafa Benitez is preparing dawn raids for the world's finest, Moyes and co are back to the drawing-board.
In August you'll have the usual vague speculation about whether any one other than the usual suspects can end up finishing first to fourth. Villa'll threaten (but Barry might've gone), Everton'll grind (but can they keep Arteta?), Spurs'll do much better (but can they flog that Bentley and if they can will it be the first time a Bentley's been sold for the price of a 1978 Honda Accord?).
Manchester City look like the only club equipped to compete and why's that? It's not Sparky's devastating management skills I can tell you that much.
I hear the usual refrain coming back from you lot - and most of it from supporters of particular clubs- surprise, surprise - that that's life and we should get used to it.
I'll never get used to it. I'll forget it sometimes when we delight in the success of a Burnley, or an AFC Wimbledon, or grimly acknowledge the achievement of a team like Hull that somehow scraped by even whilst being led by a singing Chocolate Orange - football's a charming, wonderful sport when all's said and done.
But the reason there was an extra pall of gloom over the boozer at five on Saturday was 'cos even before a ball was kicked, Everton as an entity deserved some silverware. This time last year we were praising Pompey's victory simply because it was like a long service medal for 'Arry.
Moyes has vowed to stay at Goodison to keep fighting the odds, even as wise old Guus has left the Bridge with fans desperate for more. The latest recipient of Roman's dough will be Carlo Ancellottery. I don't wish him well.
Meanwhile Middlesbrough will be getting used to life at Scunny and Posh and I'll be able to content myself with the knowledge that for one season at least we'll be on a much more level playing field with everyone else in that league. And there's something a bit reassuring about that. ,

Medical Cannabis Grow Tips ( Cropping )
1000 watt HPS
no room!
Leavesofgrass100, Thank you for the the idea…..I will do a start to
finish video just for you…it will take a few weeks to do since it takes
me about three weeks to dry and cure the medicine. The hay smell that
happens a lot this is a cause of chlorophyll decay….the main purpose of
drying the medical cannabis is to get rid of all chlorophyll. but if let
dry longer the smell (hay) will be gone.Thanks for the idea.will upload in
a few weeks!..i will show three different ways to cure as well!
Nice tip bro ,very nice,Peace.
if you do it to early does it stay at the same height when you cropped it?
because i did when it was really small :p thanks anyways 😀
Great video !! Blessing _/|_
You cut the fan leaves? Which week?
yes we cut them around the 3-4 week of flower.
Thanks homie, This is a very imporant process that is over looked with new
growers, and i could ever really get the process down until 1 day i left
home for 7 or 8 days after hanging my budz ,long story short, i figured out
i was'nt drying right. Thanks for what you do,Peace & Nugz
Thanks for sharing this informative video.
I would have SCROGED that plant.
@TheGrowPro you think maybe you could do a detailed vid about the drying
and cureing process cause most vid just say the same thing, dry til you get
a snap in stalk then jar'em, well i tried this method and it all smell like
hay, i now know how to dry but would love to see someone do a real detail
dry and cure process. Peace & nugz
What light are you using?
Terrible genetics…..

A Divided Supreme Court Hands Unions a Win. The U.S.
Supreme Court split 4-4 in Friedrichs v. CTA on Tuesday, thwarting a legal challenge that labor activists feared would deal a crippling blow to public-sector unions throughout the country. Complete List - Top 10 Controversial Supreme Court Cases. Supreme Court closely divided on abortion case. Hundreds of demonstrators gathered outside the Supreme Court on Wednesday ahead of hearings on the first abortion case in nearly a decade.
Ryan Connelly Holmes, USA TODAY WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court appeared deeply divided Wednesday over the most far-reaching abortion rights case it has considered in a generation, with the fate of abortion restrictions in many states on the line. The court's four liberal justices left little doubt they would vote to strike down a Texas law imposing tight regulations on abortion clinics and doctors, so the eight-member court — depleted by the death last month of Justice Antonin Scalia — almost certainly cannot issue a decision establishing a national precedent that would set tougher standards for abortion clinics coast to coast. But it seemed possible that Justice Anthony Kennedy, who likely holds the deciding vote, would seek to have the case returned to Texas for additional fact-finding, delaying any decision until next year at the earliest.
Republicans begin to thaw on Obama's Supreme Court pick. Image copyright Reuters Several Republican senators have taken steps to consider Merrick Garland's nomination to the Supreme Court despite calls from their leadership to leave the selection to the next president.
Republican leader Mitch McConnell has said the Senate will not hold confirmation hearings. However, some Republican senators in tough re-election battles have agreed to meet Judge Garland. One of them, Mark Kirk of Illinois, will meet Mr Garland this week. President Barack Obama nominated Mr Garland, a veteran federal appeals court judge, to fill the vacancy left by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia. Why Obama Nominated Merrick Garland for the Supreme Court. Antonin Scalia, US Supreme Court justice - obituary. When Democrat Jimmy Carter was elected Scalia returned to teaching.
Confirmations: The Battle over the Constitution - The Atlantic. The late Justice Antonin Scalia was larger than life.
A passionate defender of his own constitutional vision of textualism and originalism, Scalia would surely relish a similarly passionate debate over the constitutional vision of his successor—with both Republicans and Democrats defending their respective views of how the Constitution should be interpreted and what role the Supreme Court should play in American democracy. Instead of triggering a constitutional debate, however, Scalia's tragic death has led to a political standoff, with both Republican and Democratic activists vowing to make the Court a key voting issue in the 2016 election. How Scalia's Death Affects This SCOTUS Term. With Senate Republicans vowing that they won't even consider President Obama's generally inoffensive nominee to replace the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, it looks like the Court will be down a justice through this term, and well into the next.
That's sparked concerns about how the Court will function for so long without a tie-breaking ninth member, but the justices insist it's not a big issue. Justice Samuel Alito said, "We'll deal with it," and Breyer noted that only a small number of cases come down to one vote anyway. It's true that having eight justices decide a case isn't all that uncommon. According to a CNBC analysis, temporary vacancies or recusals have led to ties in nearly one-in-five decisions passed down since 1946.

End the Gun Epidemic in America. Photo All decent people feel sorrow and righteous fury about the latest slaughter of innocents, in California. Law enforcement and intelligence agencies are searching for motivations, including the vital question of how the murderers might have been connected to international terrorism. That is right and proper. But motives do not matter to the dead in California, nor did they in Colorado, Oregon, South Carolina, Virginia, Connecticut and far too many other places. Which Supreme Court Justices Vote Together Most and Least Often. The Supreme Court has completed its latest term after announcing its most hotly debated and consequential decisions.
Those rulings can overshadow broader trends. The nine justices have finished their fourth term together, and their thousands of votes in 280 signed decisions in argued cases in those years show some clear and sometimes surprising patterns. The justices are one of the lasting legacies of the presidents who appoint them, and you might expect ones appointed by the same president to vote together particularly often. This is certainly true of the four newest justices. The ones appointed by President Obama, Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, have agreed 94 percent of the time. The Supreme Court . The Court and Democracy . Landmark Cases . Marbury v. Madison (1803) The landmark 1803 case Marbury v.
Madison marked the first time the Court asserted its role in reviewing federal legislation to determine its compatibility with the Constitution -- the function of judicial review. Above, a portrait of plaintiff William Marbury. Kentucky clerk ordered to jail for refusing to issue gay marriage license. ASHLAND, Ky. — For a moment there, it looked as though Kim Davis might stay out of jail.
The 49-year-old Kentucky county clerk, who grabbed the national spotlight by refusing in the face of multiple court orders to begin issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples, had been given an out. She could remain a free woman, the judge said, if she gave permission to her deputies to sign the certificates in her stead. The judge gave her time to consult with her attorneys. But when the court reconvened after a short recess Thursday, Davis was not in her seat. An attorney explained that Davis, an Apostolic Christian, "does not grant her authority nor would allow any employee to issue those licenses." Opponents divided on how — or whether — to resist justices' ruling.
When Friday began, there were 14 states where same-sex couples still could not legally marry. By the afternoon — after a confusing day of orders and counter-orders by governors, attorneys general and county clerks — couples had married in all of them but one. The holdout was Louisiana. There, Attorney General James D. "Buddy" Caldwell (R) condemned the Supreme Court's ruling, which legalized same-sex marriage nationwide, as "federal government intrusion into what should be a state issue." Anthony Kennedy: how one man's evolution legalized marriage for millions. His prose may lack the fiery eloquence of his US supreme court colleagues Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Antonin Scalia, or the razor-sharp precision of chief justice John Roberts, but the majority opinion written by Justice Anthony Kennedy – granting a constitutional right to same-sex marriage across the United States – will go down as one of the most important legal documents in the history of the American civil rights struggle.
Court-watchers were left in little doubt where most of the nine justices stood on marriage equality after two and a half hours of extended oral arguments held the hushed halls of the nation's highest tribunal spellbound in April. On one side, the court's traditional liberals: Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan were withering in their view of the arguments advanced by Republican-controlled states that wanted to hold back the growing tide of legal rulings that backed gay marriage. He did. US Supreme Court rules gay marriage is legal nationwide - BBC News. Obamacare upheld by US supreme court as conservative justices rescue law.
Barack Obama celebrated a decisive victory for his healthcare reforms after the US supreme court threw out a Republican-led legal challenge that could have gutted the legislation and stripped millions of Americans of their health insurance. "This was a good day for America," the president said at the White House, marking a decisive turning point in his administration's battle to reduce the number of uninsured Americans.
"The Affordable Care Act is here to stay," he added, claiming that "as the dust has settled, there can be no doubt that this law is working". The supreme court arguments on gay marriage, annotated for non-lawyers. Asian American groups file racial quotas complaint against Harvard University. An alliance of Asian American groups on Friday filed a federal complaint against Harvard University, saying it and other Ivy League institutions are using racial quotas to admit students other than high-scoring Asians. More than 60 Chinese, Indian, Korean and Pakistani groups came together for the complaint, which was filed with the civil rights offices at the justice and education departments.
They are calling for an investigation and say these schools should stop using racial quotas or racial balancing in admission. "We are seeking equal treatment regardless of race," said Chunyan Li, a professor and civil rights activist, who said they'd rather universities use income rather than race in affirmative action policies. Harvard says its approach to admissions has been found to be "fully compliant with federal law". NSA mass phone surveillance revealed by Edward Snowden ruled illegal.

DHAKA, Mustafizur Rahman was at his best during Bangladesh's World Cup opener against South Africa and the Tigers began the journey with a bang.
He claimed 367 in 10 overs, the economy rate may look bad but he struck in crucial moment to deny South Africa chase down Bangladesh's total as they racked up 3306, their ODI highest also. South Africa eventually was shot out for 309.
But a different Mustafizur Rahman turned in the next two matches which Bangladesh lost by two wickets and 106 against New Zealand and England respectively.
In those two matches, he went wicketless, leaking runs in abundance. Especially Mustafizur's ordinary performance against New Zealand was criticized as Bangladesh could have won the match had Mustafizur bowled well.
Mustafizur Rahman, adorably called as Cutter Master, emerged as a shining star in the sky of Bangladesh Cricket in 2015 and took the World cricket by surprise demolishing a muchvaunted Indian batting line up in his first two matches with consecutive fivefor and sixfor. He had the knack to baffle the batsmen around the world with beguiling slower and unplayable cutters until his form took a dig following a recurring injury.
After the injury and surgery on his shoulder, Mustafizur never remains as consistent as he was early in his career. The inconsistency is widely exposed in the ongoing World Cup when his service matters most.
I think Mustafizur is gradually getting his best as he had done well in practice match and in the first match of the World Cup. But we have seen a mixed performance from him since then. It's because of his injury actually but he is going in the right direction and improving day by day, Former Bangladesh skipper Shahriar Nafees told a private TV channel ahead of Bangladesh's match against Sri Lanka.
He expected Mustafizur to hit back in form against Sri Lanka, a crucial match for Bangladesh to keep their semifinal hope alive.
After an epic beginning of his career, Mustafizur first got injured on his shoulder at England while playing for Sussex in the Natwest T20 Blast. In 2017 he once again suffered an ankle injury while playing football during the practice session that forced him to miss that year's BPL, a T20 series against Afghanistan and a Test series against West Indies.
After recovery, he decided to play the DPL but here he once again got injured while playing for Shinepukur. He only played two matches in that edition of DPL.
Thereafter he played a series against New Zealand but that old Mustafizur was nowhere to be seen. He bowled well in patches here before going through ups and downs in the Ireland triseries also.
Nafees said Mustafiz should break this shackle to show the rest of the World how good he really is.

Summer Stripes
The past few days it's been feeling more and more like fall with morning and evening temperatures dipping into the 60's and even down to 58 last night. It's been a bit of a shock - because I really thought we had more time...I mean, how does it always go by so fast?!
You would think by now I would have that answer, or at least learn to be ready for it, because I say it every.single.summer. Yet here we are again and my 'summer must do' list still hasn't been completed which has now got me thinking two things.
The first is that I have many more summer outfits I need to squeeze in here so September better be a warm one and the second is that we've got to kick it into high gear before Fall is really upon us which means our calendar is about to get packed.
First up is a few evening rooftop events this week and in the very near horizon Labor Day weekend with a trip down to the Cape to spend some time with family.
We also spent the 4th of July there with them, which is where these snaps are from, and I can't wait for more sunshine & rose filled days with yummy food and great company. And if there is one thing I love more about New England than spending time with my family - it's exploring it with the husband and all it's charm.
I mean could the houses down on the Cape with their seashell driveways and perfect landscaping get any better?! Talk about homeowner goals/envy.
In fact...looking back on these snaps I am thinking these wide leg striped pants are definitely going to make my packing list; paired with a demin jacket they will transition quite nicely into the cool ocean breeze filled evenings. Can it be the weekend now please?!
What are your plans to savor the last bit of summer?

Region: Africa.
Description: The Ahardin is a musical bow played by southern Tuaregs consists of a curved branch held with a twisted rope of raw leather or bark of acacia. Serving as a sound box, a reversed calabash is placed on the curved part of the bow on the ground.
Similarly the ahardant, feminine of ahardin, is also the name of a plucked string instrument, a kind of lute played throughout the region of the Niger River loop, by "court craftsmen" in the Tuaregs and by griots in the Songhai.

Technical Paper
Running Loss Test Procedure Development
A running loss test procedure has been developed which integrates a point-source collection method to measure fuel evaporative running loss from vehicles during their operation on the chassis dynamometer. The point-source method is part of a complete running loss test procedure which employs the combination of site-specific collection devices on the vehicle, and a sampling pump with sampling lines. Fugitive fuel vapor is drawn into these collectors which have been matched to characteristics of the vehicle and the test cell. The composite vapor sample is routed to a collection bag through an adaptation of the ordinary constant volume dilution system typically used for vehicle exhaust gas sampling. Analysis of the contents of such bags provides an accurate measure of the mass and species of running loss collected during each of three LA-4* driving cycles. Other running loss sampling methods were considered by the Auto-Oil Air Quality Improvement Research Program (AQIRP or Program).

|Heart Encaustic and mixed media on paper 29x41cm.
Back at work since yesterday ..... After just 3 weeks of a break, I have the feeling I need to relearn to paint ... and the big questions comes : "WHAT" to paint .... and also a little bit "WHY" to paint !
I just need few days to get back into the rhythm I suppose.
I did enjoy the smell of the hot wax and the oil though :)

Well, Christmas, in my opinion, is officially over. There's no going back and to be honest, I don't want to… That leaves me with a problem. Our header (see the red, black, green and Christmas tree thing at the top of the post) is very out of date now… That doesn't make for good blogging!
Since it's a bit too early for an Easter header, I have absolutely NO idea what to do for our new header. That's where you come in. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated…
So… Suggestions?

Battle Creek Michigan more than just cereal
You never know what's right next door!
I started out my day having my daughter drive me around, taking pictures at a cemetery for another Hub. I really like visiting older cemeteries and making up stories in my head of how people lived and died. I ended up looking around at the wonderful city of Battle Creek, Michigan thinking "Hey, this town is a great place for those looking to take a vacation". So for benefit of you readers, I have taken pictures of Battle Creek and will give you little tidbits of information.
It's amazing what one will find when out taking pictures of something else. You just might find your own vacation spot right next door!
The sites of Battle Creek, MiClick thumbnail to view full-size
Sojourner Truth to welcome you!
As you enter Battle Creek from M-66 there is a lovely welcome sign, welcoming you to the town. Don't go to far because just ahead on the right you will find a tribute to Sojourner Truth, who passed away in Battle Creek. She happens to be a Hero to many, but particularly to the people of Battle Creek, because she chose this as her final resting place.
I never did find her 'actual' headstone but I did find the memorial that was erected in her honor. A fellow hubber, mythbuster wrote an awesome article on the life of Sojourner Truth and I won't even attempt to follow in his footsteps. Suffice it to say that I was able to get some pictures that he wasn't able to.
From there I went by the Kelloggs cereal factory. Tony the Tiger and Tony Jr. are still watching vigil over the city as they stand in front of the factory. Turning around I went back to Post cereal which is only a block or so away.
The Post factory still has a visitors entrance and I managed to get a photo of the old Post hose which is still functioning, and huge. It seems as though they started one section then continued to build on it for years, this picture is just a small portion of this house. In order to help out it's workers Post built houses in an area which they named Post addition built in 1904. Not many of the workers live in this neighborhood, but it is still alive and well.
Pennimen Castle
From there I visited the Castle, yes Battle Creek, Mi boasts an actual castle. It is called Pennimen Castle, and its history can be found on the historical Castles website. A few years ago I met the owner of this Castle, he told me a little bit about it. At this point it has been divided into apartments with renters living in it. In 1941 there was a fire that destroyed the top floor and it was never re-built. There is a piano that is inside the castle that can never be removed unless it is in pieces. I was invited at the time to tour the Castle and I could not find the time much to my regret, since he current owners do not offer tours, sad to say.
The Castle sits on the corner of Main St. and Kingman, they are used to people passing by and stopping to take pictures. The current residents have decorated it for Halloween. From the Castle we zipped by the old Train Depot, it has some very nice brick work. It no longer is used for trains but does not sit empty, it is now used for the Community Action Agency and is kept quite lovely.
A Lovely place to stay
From there we traveled by the McCamly Plaza Hotel, which is an extremely nice hotel which over looks the city from it's height and is within walking distance of the many places to view. On the main floor of the plaza you will find shops and restaurants to eat at. Attached to the McCamly Plaza Hotel is the Kellogg Arena which host many concerts, circuses, car shows, Monster truck shows, wrestling and just about anything you can imagine seeing, they have it there. It seems when passing by there are all sorts of tour buses with celebrities performing.
Directly across the street from this hotel is Full Blast, an indoor water park, work out room with gym and basketball court for those so inclined. During the summer it is also an outdoor water park, children are asked to be supervised by parents. So please do not drop off your children with the hopes of having an all day babysitter.
In town and out of town
In the downtown area there is plenty to see, the cobblestone bricks are still in place and repaired often to keep as much as the original look to the city. In the winter there are 'The Festival of Lights' the whole town participates in this. Bring your thermos of hot chocolate as you walk along the walkway for several city blocks viewing the many different light displays.
In the summer there is the air show in July at the airport with the Balloon festival. The sky comes alive with balloons from all over, with various races during the week. There are plenty of people who offer rides to those who are willing to view the city by air. Seeing the different shapes and sizes of the hot air balloons floating through the air is a sight to behold.
You will find 'The Comedy Club' theatre, with many comedians who find their way into this town. The name of the Comedy Club used to be Gary Fields Comedy Club, but he moved to the downtown area. The address is 51 Michigan Ave. for those who may be looking for a fun night out.
If your looking for a Micro brewery try the Arcadia, it seems to be a hot spot with plenty of night life action. If you feel like stopping in at 'Claire's on the River' you will get a wonderful meal along with a little history, Claire's used to be a depot.
Yet more to see
In order to be fair I also snapped a picture of The Ralston Food company. To complete my story I had to get a picture of the Federal Center. I have been inside the Federal Center, before 9-11-2001, it is magnificent in its intricate leather work. In the foyer which spans 2 floors, if you look up you will see the ceiling which is leather in it's entirety. At some point I may get brave enough to ask if I can get some pictures. It is a sight that one would never forget.
It started out beginning as a Sanatorium for those who were very ill, some say it is haunted. This was the beginning of the cereal boom. Well, the idea behind the cereal boom. Mr. Kellogg and Mr. Post decided to collaborate together and create something 'good for you' to eat in the mornings. They ended up parting of the ways.
As we continued on our travels we passed by the Leila Arboretum, which is also home to the Kingman Museum. The batteries in my camera died at this point, and I had forgotten had an extra set of slightly useable batteries in my purse. The trails for walking are clearly marked and in the winter sledders are more than welcome to skid down the hills. The wind whipping in your face with the snow burning your cheeks only makes you want to run back to the top and do it all again!
The Jetson House
As we were heading back home (it is late September at the time of this writing and is starting to get chilly) I found those batteries and had to take one last picture! We call it "The Jetson House". About 10 years ago it went up for sale and just for fun we decided to look at it. The house faces about 5 acres of semi-wooded lawn, it's the house that has the appeal. It has an elevator to go from the garage (under the house) to the top floor! When peeking through the windows we seen why we termed it "The Jetson House", from the cartoon. I expected Rosie to pop out from one of the cupboards. It was built in the late 1950's early 60's and is still what one would term very modern, with all sorts of built in things in the kitchen.
It was either the tornado that passed thru the yard 5 years ago, or word got around about it being the 'Jetson house' because they now have 'No Trespassing' signs and 'No Entry' with 'Do Not Disturb' marking all over the property and the drive.
Downtown Battle Creek with Binder Park Zoo as last
Stop on by!
Just taking photos of the town reminded me what a great place it is to visit as well as live, I used to live there 8 years ago, and now I was looking at it with 'new' eyes. These are just a few things to see in Battle Creek, if you happen to stop by make sure to take time to visit the Binder Park Zoo as well. In October they have the 'Zoo Boo', so make sure you show up in costume!
So if by chance your traveling on I-94 through the beautiful State of Michigan go North on M-66 and take a tour of the lovely town of Battle Creek! Plan a day or two so you have the opportunity to see all the sites that Battle Creek has to offer!
this was put together very well. =) I grew up in battle creek, born and stayed there until 21. Its nice when people take an interest in that very nice place. My daughter goes every summer (for a month or so) and always comes back having learned something new about the history of the city and or with a picture of her standing next to a statue (she's 6). I'll have to get her up there early one summer so she can make it to the Worlds Longest Breakfast Table, and the Hot Air Balloon Championships. She's seen the balloons all over the skies - but one year was lucky enough to see a few launch from in front of my aunts house (we just happened to be visiting at the right moment, hadn't even bothered to check the launch schedule), but not the breakfast table. Battle Creek is a very nice place to live and raise a family. I do indeed plan on moving back in the next few years. ***im currently writing a paper on Sojourner Truth and stumbled across your article. Oh and p.s. my mother works at the Federal Center, so we still get to go in and looks at all the intricately detailed structural work. =) i LOVE the chandeliars and the support pillars....Just GORGEOUS.
I live a little more than two miles from Battle Creek. If I ever visit, I will look for, among other things, the Pennimen Castle. Thanks for the glimpses of the city. Voted USEFUL and INTERESTING.
Sojourner Truth's grave site is located in Woodlawn Cemetery. The Cemetery is tucked back behind one of the elementary schools off of Main Street, forgive me for forgetting the name it has been forever since I have been "home" to Battle Creek, CW Post, WK Kellogg, and a few other Battle Creek Celebs are buried in the same cemetery as well!
Great hub, Sweetsusieg. I'd like to see Pennimen Castle if I'm ever able to get to the right area of Michigan. Thanks for the info. I've got you linked to the Sojourner Truth hub now, so thanks for linking, too.
Thanks, susie, for the tour through Battle Creek and especially the great photos. It must be fun to live in a town that continually smells like Frosted Flakes or Froot Loops. Wonder if the inhabitants eat more breakfast cereal per capita than any other city.
Sweetsusieg; Battlecreek, sounds like a quaint little American town, and since I grewup on their cereals, I should stop by sometime and check it out. Thank you.
Brother Dave.
I'm a Michigan native. Great job. Enjoyed reading about places I grew up knowing.
Nice stories, good facts and with a touch of funny

Product 5/6
As the do-all kite in the Airush range, the Lithium has been proven to meet the requirements of riders looking to do a bit of everything: freeride, jumping, looping and waves. With amazing park power, stability, and ease of use, the Lithium is simply the perfect kite. The focus of wingtip and strut layout in conjunction with the Delta Hybrid design ensures the quickest response through the air as well as instant relaunch. The square wingtip with increased area improves unhooked and overall performance without sacrificing the legendary relaunch, stability or wind range.
The Lithium 17m features the same Lithium freeride flying characteristics but optimized for extremely light wind. Reinforcement has been minimized to save weight and optimized for the unique loads in lighter winds. This optimization compensates for the weight of the additional struts, increasing the stability when the wind picks up, and working in conjunction with the load frame to increase the longevity of the canopy.
The most versatile bar on the market enables riders to have the perfect setup straight out of the bag, or to tweak and modify the bar to suit their specific requirements. The Core Bar features a new directional grooving pattern that helps you hang on through all conditions with maximum grip and comfort.
Developed as the first ever bar that has four length adjustments, the Core bar can be changed from 45-55cm or 52-62xm with simple and easy changes. This allows the bar to be used from our absolutely smallest kite to the largest kite in the Airush range.
The PU coated depower line, with reduced diameter tubing, makes sheeting in and out effortless. This PU coated line extends the lifespan of the centerline and increases the reliability of all Airush bars.
Airush Bars have safety as their first priority. An industry standard Brain Quick Release and color-coding on all parts makes the Airush system hassle free for all riders. Continuing for 2017, the Low Y on the center-lines allows for a quick single line flag out for those situations where you need it the most.

Andaman tribesmen die of toxic drink
9 Dec 2008, 1430 hrs IST, PTI
http://timesofindia .indiatimes. com/Pollution/ Andaman_tribesme n_die_of_ toxic_drink/ articleshow/ 3813023.cms
PORT BLAIR: Five Onge aboriginal tribesmen, whose population has been
dwindling, died and 15 others took ill after consuming a toxic chemical at
Dugong Creek of Little Andaman island of Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
"Onge tribals have drunk the chemical mistaking it to be alcohol last
night from a plastic can that had got washed ashore from the Bay of
Bengal at Dugong Creek," said South Andaman district SP Ashok Chand.
A medical team led by deputy director R C Kar had gone to the far flung
island, about 125-km south-west of Port Blair, to provide emergency
medical service to the seriously ill tribesmen.
They would be flown to Port Blair for further treatment as the remote
area lacked proper healthcare facility, Chand said.
With the death of five Onge tribesmen, the island's population of the
tribe has come down to 95.
According to official sources the population of Onge tribals, who
numbered 672 in 1901, had dwindled to 100 recently.

ROME, Ga. - The Austin College football team hit the road for Georgia to take on Berry College on Saturday, and the Vikings showed why they're the No. 17-ranked team in the nation, handing the 'Roos a 61-0 defeat. The 'Roos are now 1-4 overall and 1-2 in Southern Athletic Association play.
Berry didn't waste much time getting on the board, scoring their first touchdown less than three minutes into the game, and the Vikings made it 13-0 four minutes after that. One more touchdown in the quarter would make it 20-0, and the Vikings found the endzone three more times in the second quarter to lead 41-0 at halftime. Two more scores in the third made it 55-0, and the Vikings tacked on a pair of fourth quarter field goals to make the score 61-0 at the final horn.
Austin College was limited to 127 yards of total offense in the game, while Berry amassed 515. Berry also dominated time of possession by a nearly 2-to-1 margin. Colt Collins completed 7-of-19 passes for 68 yards and two picks, and Evan Powell led the ground game with 29 yards on four carries. Powell also had 53 receiving yards on three catches. Jackson Townsend led the defense with 10 stops, and TJ Melontree added nine tackles in the loss.
Austin College returns home next Saturday when they play host to Centre College with kickoff set for 1:00 p.m. at Jerry Apple Stadium.

Toxins are the root cause of almost all diseases. You cannot prevent disease and achieve optimum health if you are poisoning yourself and not eliminating these poisons inside your body on a daily basis. Once you understand how destructive toxins are to your body, you will learn how to eliminate them from entering your body, and expel the many years these poisons have built up within your body. This is the nutritional foundation for understanding optimum health and preventing disease.
In 2005, the non-profit Environmental Working Group published a study that found 280 deadly chemicals and toxins flowing through a person's blood. Incredibly, they have been there since birth! Of these, 76 chemicals that are known to cause cancer, 94 chemicals are toxic to the brain and nervous system, and 79 are chemicals that cause birth defects or abnormal development. Researchers studied the blood of newborn babies and found 287chemicals and other toxins.
It is most important that you understand the ABCs of what these poisons are, how they poison you, and how you can eliminate them from entering your body while expelling them via diet. Toxic protein, toxic carbohydrates, toxic lipids and Advanced Glycation End Products (AGE's) slowly poison you, create disease, weaken your cells, age us and ultimately cause death, especially in our later years. Therefore, eliminating poisons combined with a raw food diet high in raw protein, high in raw fat, low in carbohydrates, low in fruits and vegetables, combined with oxygen and and lengthening telomeres would produce a Road Map towards optimal health and preventing most diseases.
We will discuss ways for all of us to prevent toxins from entering our bodies, and eliminating those poisons that have built up during our lifetimes.
