Banning smoking in public places does not decrease the profitability of restaurants and bars; in fact, there are several benefits accruing from banning smoking in bars and restaurants. These include reducing the risk of fires, improving cleanliness in the premises, maintaining an attractive workforce, reducing the need for energy for ventilation needs, promoting a healthy environment and giving an incentive for smokers to quit. All these factors have a positive impact on the performance and profitability of businesses in the hospitality industry (Stuckler & Siegel, 2011). In addition, most of the studies done investigating the effects of the smoking ban on the profitability of this sector found no relationship between the two.

One of the main reasons for introducing the smoking ban in public places is to protect other people from secondhand smoke. If someone smokes in public places, especially overpopulated places like hotels and streets, a large number of people around the smoker inhale the smoke. Tobacco smoke is harmful to the users' respiratory system, leading to diseases like asthma, cancer, and heart disease (Barker, 2007). Imposing this ban will, therefore, protect all breathing individuals from the ailments resulting from tobacco smoke, thus reducing the cases of diseases like asthma, heart disease, cancer, and other diseases associated with smoking. Smoking privately ensures that the effects of the smoke are just felt by the individual smoker.
Some people assume that banning smoking in public places would increase alcohol consumption. However, denying smokers the opportunity to smoke in public does not guarantee their shift to other drugs and refreshments. In fact, alcohol does not have the same effects that smokers get from tobacco consumption. If alcohol were a substitute for smoking, then smokers would opt for it where the smoking ban is applicable. Additionally, smoking does not reduce the cases of fatal accidents (Hiller, 2006). Thus, imposing the smoking ban will have no effect on the number, and or the frequency of fatal accidents caused by alcohol consumption. Actually, a public smoking ban would reduce the number of fatal accidents since smoking will not distract drivers.
Contrary to the writer's claim that smoking bans have a detrimental effect on the attendance of bingo halls and casinos, there is no insignificant effect of the smoking ban on the attendance of such places. Implementing the smoking ban in the casinos will not prevent a dedicated client from frequenting such a place. Most people spend only a small fraction of their time in casinos and bingo halls. Each day, the casinos serve different people. Therefore, an ambitious gambler will not allow a few hours at the casino or bingo hall to affect his or her smoking habits.
Stay Connected
The smoking ban involves restricting the act of smoking in public in public places. The smoking ban cannot increase the number of smokers among the young population. If exposed less often to tobacco in public places or the media, younger people will be less likely to smoke. Educating the young people vigorously about the harmful effects of tobacco, while restricting access to those under the age of 18, will dramatically reduce smoking among young people.
Though the market offers other nonsmoking choices for smokers, there are other enforcements that the government can use alongside the smoking ban to ensure that smoking is increasingly difficult. For instance, the government should impose cessation measures, increasing taxes for tobacco products, and, promoting anti-smoking education (Stuckler &Siegel, 2011). These would reduce the smoking rate thus promoting positive health outcomes. Restricting the local cultivation and production of tobacco, limiting the access of tobacco to minors, and giving incentives to smokers who quit smoking would also play a great role in creating a nonsmoking population.
Many establishments still lack designated smoking areas. Government regulations can create an environment beneficial to everyone. Cigarette smoke travels through air. Air is ubiquitous and highly difficult to confine to one specific location. Enforcement of proper ventilation through regulations has to be the second option to banning smoking completely in establishments.
Limited time Offer
Smokers are aware of the health risks associated with smoking; however, the benefits they experience from smoking do not outweigh the costs. Smoking does not create any health benefits.. However, there are many health costs associated with smoking. According to CNN (2011), in the US, for instance, 87% of lung cancer cases and 87% of lung cancer cases result from cigarette smoking. Smoking affects all citizens, whether they are smokers or not. The government shares the health costs accruing from smoking-related diseases among all the citizens.
Cigarettes contain DNA-damaging agents, heavy metals and the most harmful carcinogens. These substances fetuses carried by expectant mothers. Though other pollutants in the environment may cause birth defects, smoking is the most prevalent pollutant. Smoking adversely affects the firsthand consumer; in addition, secondhand smoke adversely affects the fetus. Smoking mothers and those mothers who live with smokers are at a higher risk of stillbirths and bearing children with heart disease and other birth defects. While the smoking ban is optional, pregnant women do not have an option to breath. Pollutants emerging from smoking are more prevalent than other toxins and air pollutants; therefore, banning public smoking is the only solution to protecting the unborn from harm.

Martin Küchen: Hellstorm
Folkens, sjekk ut den svenske saksofonisten Martin Küchens (bl.a. Angles) mørke, dystre og vakre plate "Hellstorm" (Mathka 2012).
Undertittelen på albumet er "Man erkennt langsam das Elend, dass über uns gekommen ist", en setning Küchens far skrev i sin krigsdagbok i januar 1945.
Her er noe av det Küchen selv skriver: "Hellstorm - Man erkennt langsam das Elend, dass über uns gekommen ist" - has again THAT theme in its title. A line from my father´s unpublished war diary, penned in January 1945. And a dedication to the american author Thomas Goodrich for writing the immensely important historical book, "Hellstorm". That theme. That Temata. But only there. The music stands aside, the music does not want to have anything whatsoever to do with it, but still I am forcing the titles, like some kind of strange lyrics put to an illiteral melody, to be there. I had a need to do this record. Obviously. We went into this big Church in Lund, Sweden, me and Jakob, and it was a cold, snowy winter. And we had to work quick. Which we did. Each tune, one take".
Ta en lytt på sporet kalt "Sarajevo" og videoen, og kjøp! Sterk musikk!

This is the eighth of several 'Innovation Perspectives' articles we will publish this week from multiple authors to get different perspectives on 'How should firms collaborate with customers and/or value chain partners to co-create new products and services?'. Here is the next perspective in the series:
by Matt Heinz
Find mutual priorities and desired outcomes, quantify its value and potential to ensure prioritization and focus, then assign a project owner with specific deadlines to get the project off the ground, keep it on schedule, and get it done.
Co-creation can be a powerful means of creating innovation on a variety of levels, but partnerships too often fail to get off the ground (let alone launched with results realized) because the two (or more) parties don't agree on priorities, expected outcomes, or urgency. Without a basis that has all parties on common footing from square one, things won't get done.
That said, the process of identifying opportunities to collaborate, based on mutual or individual interests, should be an open and ongoing dialogue. Let the ideas flow with little to no limit on volume or vetting, then triage the best opportunities based on the mutual interests above, and get to work!
You can check out all of the 'Innovation Perspectives' articles from the different contributing authors on 'How should firms collaborate with customers and/or value chain partners to co-create new products and services?' by clicking the link in this sentence.

The Snowtendo Vii is a home video game console. It is one of the most popular game consoles in Antarctica and is created by Snowtendo.
The Snowtendo Vii was designed to succeed Snowtendo's highly popular game console line, the GameSphere. It was also designed to compete against the up coming PengStation 3. Snowtendo completely redesigned the console from the ground up. For starters, it used upgraded hardware, like a better CPU and RAM. The most revolutionary design change was the brand new Viimote. The Viimote functioned as the game controller of the Vii. Like the PengStation 3's controller, it was wireless. Unlike it, however, it does not use a directional pad or a control stick. Instead, the Viimote relied on several gadgets, including gyroscopes and accelerometers, to be controlled. To play a game on the Vii, the player would have to physically move their hand to select an option on the screen. This would promote more interactivity with the player and the game.
The Vii was released on November 19 2006. The launch was simultaneous around several locations, including the USA, Ninja Archipelago and UnitedTerra. It was met with wide success, especially with the many games released for the system. Today, the Vii is one of the most popular gaming consoles and is used by many.
Known games[edit]
- A Vii can come in three colors - black; white; and orange. (In comparison, the Wii is in black, white and red (Super Mario Bros special edition).)
- Amigopen is one of the few penguins to own a orange Vii.
- An exact copy, Nii was created in Zhou, the only exception is that it's much more expensive than the Vii and has only 1 sell.
- Snow owns a Vii, and it is the color orange. This particular one was exclusive to the Snow's return celebration, as a prize from the raffle.
- Snow also owns an exclusive game... Yeah... Let's move on...
External Links[edit]
The Vii is a parody on Nintendo Wii. There is also a real Vii however as said by the user Aqua Jet. The real Vii is a clone of the Wii.

La Llorona is real.
How do I know this? Because I've seen her.
Growing up in the Southwest for most of my life, there are always certain stories that stick with you. You learn about Coyote the trickster, the kachinas (native spirits of nature), El Cucuy the boogeyman, and many others.
And of course, you hear about La Llorona, the Weeping Woman. Many variations of her story exist (almost 42 recorded versions as of this writing, but who knows, there could be more).
She's used more as a cautionary tale; parents tell this story to their kids in order to make sure they don't play near the river's edge at the twilight hours or at night. As you get older, the cautionary tale takes on a different feel. Perhaps it's that making rash decisions will have unforeseen consequences, or that you shouldn't depend on looks alone to win someone's heart.
The tale I'm about to tell you is as I first heard it told to me. Again, there exist many variations.
There once was a poor but beautiful girl named Maria. She knew how beautiful she was, and she used it to her advantage. Every time she went down to the village plaza, many would stop what they were doing and gaze at her—especially the young men of the town.
Her mother and grandmother warned Maria that if she relied on her looks too much that one day it would come back to haunt her. But Maria laughed off their warnings and continued to flaunt her looks.
Finally, a rich merchant took notice of her and asked her to marry him. She did, and it was a grand affair. Maria gave birth to two children, and for a long time they were very happy.
But soon the merchant began taking longer and longer trips out of town, sometimes disappearing for weeks or months. And whenever he came back, he would only talk to his children, and not to his wife. The townspeople began to whisper behind Maria's back that her husband was having an affair with another woman—one who was more beautiful than his lawfully-wedded wife. Somehow Maria's heart became twisted with jealousy and hate because of these rumors, and by the behavior of her husband.
It would all come to a devastating conclusion.
One day, Maria was walking along the Rio Grande with her two children hand in hand. And who should show up but her husband? He pulled up next to them in a wagon…with another beautiful woman sitting next to him. He spoke only to the two children; NOT to Maria herself.
As he finished the conversation, told them he would see them later, and drove off, Maria finally snapped. In her jealous rage, she grabbed her kids and threw both of them into the fast-flowing current. As they disappeared into the river, she came to her senses and realized what she had done.
She let out a horrified wail—one that made everyone come running to the river—and flung herself into the water to try and save them. But it was too late. The townspeople hauled her out of the river, and she collapsed in a faint.
For some reason that my younger self could never comprehend, they never really charged her for the murders of her children; I suppose they really couldn't charge her for something she did in a moment of passionate rage.
It's worth noting that the merchant left town with his new lady and was never seen of or heard from again.
But poor Maria lost her mind.
Soon the people would see her wraith-like form wandering up and down the banks of the Rio Grande, calling out in a plaintive cry "Mis hijos! Donde esta mis hijos? (My children! Where are my children?)"
Eventually, someone found her lifeless body lying on the ground; dead from grief and exhaustion. They buried her where they found her in a white dress. And they thought that was the end of that.
Until that night…
Some children came running from the Rio, telling their parents that they had seen Maria wandering the banks as before only that this time they could see right through her.
Several brave souls decided to go to the river to see for themselves.
Sure enough, they saw her floating across the water, and they could see through her. They went back to report on what they saw, and they decided that no one should stay near the river at night.
And since then, they named her "La Llorona", the Weeping Woman. And they warned their kids not to play near the river, or to misbehave; "La Llorona will come and get you!"
I first heard the story as a second-grader. My mom was my teacher at the time, and she read it to my classmates and me from a book by Joe Hayes (look him up after you read this, he's a brilliant storyteller and author). I can recall all of us being really quiet as she read of the townspeople's first sight on the Weeping Woman.
That night, I couldn't sleep, due to the story being stuck in my head. Well, and that we had a window that opened out into our big, dark backyard. It didn't really matter that we weren't anywhere near the river, but it was still the principle of the thing. I was scared that she would come through the window and get me. Needless, I nearly fell asleep in class the next day, but I noticed that a few of my classmates looked like they lost some sleep due to the story as well.
The second time she entered my life was in middle school.
Our whole group had gone down to La Llorona Park (go figure) to collect specimens for biology. As everyone collected bugs and water samples, I decided to go a little a further down the river and see what I could gather.
I walked; or rather I stumbled a few feet away from an overpass, sinking at least to my knees in mud. Finally, I had to stop and sit down on dry ground. I took off my glasses and tried to scrape off a dry blob of mud on my lens.
Now mind you, I was the only one who'd gone off by themselves. I think no one noticed me leaving, and therefore, no one could have followed me.
Something made me look up, putting on my glasses. Everything had gone quiet, save for the sound of the flowing river. I didn't even hear the cars on the bridge.
A woman was across the way on the other bank. I could see that white dress she wore flowing in the breeze. And I could vaguely make out her dark hair. I wondered to myself if she was taking a walk…in a white dress.
"Hello!" I called out, standing up.
She said nothing. And the she began to…float across the river, not even touching the surface of the water.
And in my head, I heard a voice saying "Be nice to your family."
I nearly lost my shoe in the muck running back to where everyone was still collecting bugs and the like. I was panting, gasping, and shaking; I couldn't tell people what I'd seen. I did get scolded for leaving the group without telling anyone.
But as to the words I heard?
That morning I had been more than a little rude to my siblings and my grandma—being very argumentative and insolent. Maybe Llorona was trying to tell me something. As I got older, I began to see the story of the Weeping Woman as more of an admonitory tale; not just for children, but for women as well.
Perrault and the Brothers Grimm were the best at these tales. We need only look at Little Red Riding Hood as a prime example of a cautionary tale.
Perrault's version has a little warning at the end–a "moral", if you will:
"But above all, those growing ladies fair,
Whose orient rosy blooms begin to appear:
Who, beauties in the fragrant Spring of age!
With pretty airs, young hearts are apt to engage.
Ill do they listen to all sorts of tongues.
Since some enchant and lure like sirens' songs.
It is no wonder then if, overpowered,
So many of them has the Wolf devoured."
The verses go on to say that the "Wolf" will lead tender young ladies off of the moral path. Perrault and the Brothers Grimm intended for their stories to be tales for those who could learn from the result of the hero/heroine's actions. Again, this could be applied to the tale of Llorona.
Applying the idea of being careful about your looks, and how you use them, mothers could tell their daughters/granddaughters/nieces, etc. that if they relied on just their looks to get what they want, then they would end up like Maria: no children, no husband, and doomed to wander for all eternity without any rest.
In some versions of the tale, La Llorona is refused entrance into heaven by St. Peter because of her crime; at some points, he tells her that she can't enter heaven until she finds her children—another reason why she wanders the banks of the river.
Of course, she isn't just a moral anecdote. She has come to be a symbol of the Hispanic Southwest.
In Earl Murray's Ghosts of the Old West (1998), Murray writes of an experience had by migrant workers as they heard her wails on a trip to Colorado in 1954. Jack Kutz, in his magnificent tome of the weird & creepy, Mysteries and Miracles of New Mexico (1988), calls her a bruja, a witch, and a harbinger of death; if La Llorona appeared in front of a house and let out her anguished wail, there would be a death in the home soon—an echo of the banshee in Celtic folklore. And in some reports of her sightings, she carries a sword, or a cross, or chains—symbols of worldly cares dragging down those who'd seen her.
A story I'd heard in middle school lists her burial place as the State Capital building in Santa Fe, where maintenance workers and politicians have said to have seen her wandering the halls.
So why does her legend continue to have a hold on us?
A lot of people have dismissed her wailing as just the wind going through the reeds, a car going over a bridge, or even a bird (some going so far as to say a whooping crane or a migrating Canadian loon).
But even with all these logical explanations, people are still quick to say that it's the Weeping Woman. Noted Hispanic author Rudolfo Anaya says this about her in his collection of stories My Land Sings:
"I think it's safe to say that this tragic woman is the best-known character in the Latino oral tradition."
What is my personal reason?
Because she sticks with us. Because she's real to those of us who have heard her story, who have seen her, who think about her as we walk along the Rio Grande at night.
We try to go a little faster on those nightly walks. Because…
Who knows? La Llorona might just surprise us on this night.

I can't seem to find the right balance between opening up to people and closing myself off. If I leave myself an open book I feel vulnerable and like my life is being judged, on the other hand if I lock up my emotions and feelings I feel suffocated. I could be drowning in my own insecurities and shortcomings and people would not know because I'd like to think that I am good at keeping my life private.
Where is the cut off point? Open book or bound by lock and key?

Initially, we produced niche vertical market applications to provide touchscreen technology for EPOS solutions in the hospitality industry. Businesses using Innov8 solutions at the time included Pret A Manger & Frankie and Benny's.
After some initial success providing niche products, we aligned ourselves to mainstream software provider Sage.
On becoming an accredited Sage Business Partner, we could now provide Sage L50 and Sage L100 solutions and the business began to see significant growth.
Building on the niche products being produced and our Sage partnership, Innov8 developed mobility applications and partnered with handheld technology providers Intermec.
We continue to provide handheld solutions to the wholesale and distribution industry.
Having established ourselves as a Sage Business Partner, the directors sought to acquire similar businesses to accelerate the growth of the business.
Innov8 successfully acquired L100 and hardware provider Bridge Computers in 2001 and L100 provider Phoenix Business Solutions in 2002.
In 2002 we introduced infrastructure services, following a growing need from customers. In 2002 Innov8 partnered with Microsoft, HP and desktop virtualisation specialists Citrix.
Having spent 6 years at our office at Depleach Hall, in 2003 Innov8's continued growth demanded a change of premises.
5 Riverview on The Embankment Business Park was chosen and is still our home today.
In 2004 we were one of the first adopters of server virtualisation with VMware.
The idea of VMware technology at the time was extremely innovative and has since become an industry standard, being at the forefront of new technology is something we pride ourselves on.
In 2005 Innov8 recruited a specialist mobile application team.
The team based in Cornwall already had vast experience in developing mobility software and circumstances allowed us to enlist the experience of our now established research and development team.
Between 2006 and 2009, we began to grow via increased new business and further acquisitions.
Innov8 acquired Reflex Computers (L100), Tobar Software in Ireland (L100 & Trakker), ASAP (L50), Alpha Business Solutions (L50) and OMS (Mobility/Hand-held technology).
With storage environments continuing to grow, we partnered with NetApp in 2011 embracing the powerful NetApp storage technology enabling customers to effectively manage their data growth.
Innov8 were nominated for NetApp New Partner of the Year in 2012.
With our desire to continue growing, in the late summer of 2013 we announced our partnership with Sage Enterprise Management..
We are now able to offer a wide range of Sage products from Sage One through to Sage Enterprise Management., including Payroll and HR.
Having looked at the marketplace to expand our Converged offering, we took on Dell for their V-Shape and Cluster in a Box offerings.
Adding this to our portfolio, we can deliver infrastructure solutions that scale and grow as customer's businesses grow.
The innov8 Technology Group is formed by the bringing together of Innov8 Technology and Viking Management Systems.
August 2018 – Innov8 Group become a Platinum Sage Development Partner, only 1 of 3 Sage Business Partners in the UK!
Combining our new and established partner relationships, we continue to provide hardware and software solutions to solve business problems.
With our experience and knowledge of the application layer and specifically in relation to mobility/remote working, we understand the impact on the underlying infrastructure and the importance in delivering a quality end-user experience.
Innov8 is a leading provider of software and IT infrastructure for businesses throughout the UK.Enquire

The Kiss Thief
by L.J. Shen
Rating: ★★★★★
Add on Goodreads | Purchase on Amazon
They say your first kiss should be earned.
Mine was stolen by a devil in a masquerade mask under the black Chicago sky.
They say the vows you take on your wedding day are sacred.
Mine were broken before we left church.
They say your heart only beats for one man.
Mine split and bled for two rivals who fought for it until the bitter end.
I was promised to Angelo Bandini, the heir to one of the most powerful families in the Chicago Outfit.
Then taken by Senator Wolfe Keaton, who held my father's sins over his head to force me into marriage.
They say that all great love stories have a happy ending.
I, Francesca Rossi, found myself erasing and rewriting mine until the very last chapter.
One kiss.
Two men.
Three lives.
Entwined together.
And somewhere between these two men, I had to find my forever.
*ARC provided by author/publisher in exchange for an honest review*
You can also read this review on Goodreads
A story of a Nemesis and a Villain with no chance at a happy ending. Where the prince doesn't save the princess. He tortures her. And the beauty doesn't sleep. She's stuck. In a nightmare.
What a fantastic beginning to reading in 2019!
I knew I'd fall in love with this, because it is L.J. Shen. One of, if not, my favourite author. Ever. She's a proficient and excellent writer—her sentences are carefully and beautifully constructed into gripping scenes and concise prose—who continues to astound me with every release.
She's mastered an ability to transform cold-hearted and callous asshole heroes, who undergo an inevitable transformation of redemption, into loveable characters we can't hate. They're always damaged, filled with cynicism and sarcasm and hatred towards the wrongdoer, yet loaded with vengeance and countless positive qualities that make them them.
God, she was sweet, and she was all mine. Not just her body but also her words and her courage.
I thought I loved Baron "Vicious" Spencer; adored Celian Laurent, but I'm unconditionally infatuated and unquestionably besotted with Wolfe Keaton—The Kiss Thief. On the surface, he appears to be nothing beyond ruthless; however, there's an immense amount of depth, intrigue and enigma surrounding this mean anti-hero. Without doubt, he is complex and multi-faceted, someone who appears withdrawn and detached, yet beneath the tough exterior is someone able to love. And love hard. Fierce, without shame. Wild, without restraint.
We were entwined and entangled, connected with invisible strings, each of us trying to pull away, only to create more knots that made us closer.
Francesca Rossi is my newest fictional best friend. Tangent: I was almost named Francesca. Ergo, we're best friends. I digress. Having been raised dreadfully sheltered inside a gilded cage, oftentimes Francesca appears to be docile, unsure of herself and awfully immature. Seeming complaisant, or sometimes quiet, however, doesn't always mean being submissive or feeble-minded—she's quick-witted and intelligent. Torn between an older life bound in tradition and a newer life promising freedom, Francesca transforms into someone more daring, challenging and outspoken.
He turned to me, his grays on my blues, two pools of beautiful lies.
Wolfe and Francesca are explosive. Passionate enemies who slowly and quietly transform into intimate lovers. Wrapped up in an unexpected fervid romance; embraced by an intense connection.
The Kiss Thief is an engrossing, riveting narrative of an arranged marriage set within a modern Chicago. Promises of revenge shadowed by danger is abundant—you will be turning the pages faster than expected. L.J. Shen continues to astound me with the ways she illustrates love. It is always an intense fierceness of earnest affection and vicious yearning that is wretched and heart-aching however real. To be in real love is to be free. To change. To transform into someone greater than you've imagined. And she's portrayed this through Wolfe and Francesca.

Great agent - 01 Jul 2018
Kade was great. My property was sold in a day
Great result - 08 Nov 2018
Kade was very knowledgeable about both the suburb and current market conditions. He was proactive in his marketing, working with existing contacts in his database as well as promoting the property through home opens. He kept me informed of interest from each home open and successfully negotiated the eventual purchase price to a point where I was more than happy. Great work Kade and thank you very much!
Will get it sold!! - 08 Nov 2018
To start with I had a pretty big ask for Kade as my place was a renovators dream or a builder's demolisher. Kade did everything I asked and all the extra work he put in to make this sale, due to the big ask and headache of me not being in the State I had given up, and almost taken it off the market. But Kade re assured me and made it happen going above and beyond. Thanks heaps Kade if I never to said it at the time I appreciate all you done.
Excellent Agent - 25 Jun 2018
Kade is young, enthusiastic, and a very professional Sales Rep, who is very knowledgeable in this area, on top of this he managed to sell my house in 3 days and for a great price !! I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking to sell.
Young & Enthusiastic!! - 01 May 2018
Kade is a young man fairly new to the industry but his local knowledge, strong work ethic and enthusiasm to assist his clients is first class. I was very happy with the assistance Kade provided in negotiating the sale of my property

what is it with water bodies and me? is it because of 21 years in chennai, 1 in cuddalore, 2 in calcutta and the balance 8 in bombay...
geographical proximity to large masses of water has been a reality of my existence.
guess it all came to be during the year in cuddalore (1995-96). gosh, has been more than a decade now. wow.
marisusai nagar, cuddalore - 1 was my address, just 1.5 km from the sea, and what a beach, the best i have ever experienced. Sunday mornings, me in infinite embrace of pure nature.
felt alive and meaningless at same time. the pulsating throb and rhythm of the waves had me hypnotised and i am a lifelong disciple of mother sea.
immersed for years into routine, the nearness let me be casusal in my relationship with mom.
then out of the blue, dec 2004 happened. felt like i was being summoned to appear in front of the grand jury. mom was calling her truant son. in the process tearing many lives asunder.
late night in feb 05, standing on the akkarapettai beach, nagapattinam facing what was a seeting ferocious eruption of waves. cowering in a corner in fear like a little boy who breaks a bottle trying to sneak a candy. an angry mom bearing down on her son's misdemeanour.
through the next months, i paid silent penance to my extended absence, visiting mum's different abodes and avtaars. each one beautiful and comforting in their own way.
mum - how many children you have. how much they all love you (....and fear you also:-)). more than i could ever do. you need to watch your temper here on...
April 2, 2006 in goa, reach to another much vaunted avtaar of mum's. like a parched traveller tumbling towards an oasis.
god almighty, what are you spewing out...yuck, black death, the beach appears like an enormous blue/white saree with a hideous balck embroidery. it is either an oil slick or iron ore floccs. runs across the entire stretch of more than 3 km i walk....walk in rage, an empty rage like a caged tiger, no purpose, dies within me.
i leave silently, carry your memories back home, specks of your golden sand still stuck in my sandals. you left them like micro magnets to get me back. like all mothers do :-)

Two films about about Sukur by Nic David are now available on YouTube, together with his other ethnographic films on the peoples of the Mandara Mountains and their material culture.These include a short (21 minute) film on Sukur male initiation entitled Regenerating Sukur.
The five minute trailer of The 13 Months of Sukur is embedded below.
This ethnographic film shows the complete seasonal round of the Sukur people of Nigeria's Mandara Mountains. It does so from the perspective of cultural landscape, showing how their technology, society and ideology as expressed in ceremonies interact with their mountain environment to produce a landscape that is inherited, maintained and always in process of becoming. A wide range of traditional technologies - amongst them iron smelting, architecture and basketry - are introduced, as are core anthropological concepts such as clan and caste. Nic David and Judy Sterner have carried out ethnographic, historical and archaeological research in the Mandara Mountains since 1984. Their intimate and unrivalled knowledge of the Sukur people is evident throughout a film, made over 17 years, that is intended for general audiences besides students of anthropology and African studies.

Ever since Mr. Jay Manuel and Miss J. Alexander told me the winner of this cycle of America's Next Top Model is "obvious," the answer has proven anything but, right?
Well, I'm now told that's because those sneaky ANTM editors and producers have gone to great lengths all season long to conceal just how obvious this winner is.
"Trust me, whenever it's kind of obvious they cut it out because they don't want to give it away," explains Mr. Jay.
That said, I'm now convinced the winner has to be…
McKey—don't you think? Who else have we seen so very little of this season? Who else knocked the socks off all the designers at her "go-sees" in Amsterdam last week, booking every single one of her potential jobs?
They may be able to edit the judges' praise and adoration, but they couldn't edit out that, and being 100 percent bankable to designers is key.
McKey has flown so far under the radar (think about it: very little footage of her behind the scenes has been shown compared to the other girls), and yet the occasional comments we do hear about her include how "stunning" and "striking" her face is—not to mention she's just about as tall and modelesque as they come. And she even rocks impressive designer duds at panel!
Personally, I am sold.
Meanwhile, though, BetOnline.com has just released the following odds on ANTM, placing Analeigh as the front-runner:
- Analeigh (2-to-1)
- McKey (9-to-4)
- Marjorie (7-to-2)
- Samantha (6-to-1)
Who is right? Who are you feeling? Check out the sneak peeks of tomorrow night's new ep below, and then post your personal predictions in the comments…

A simple guide to servicing your Space Echo
MUFF WIGGLER Forum Index
Music Tech DIY
A simple guide to servicing your Space Echo
br>As requested here is a simple guide to maintaining your Space Echo, most of this information can be applied to other tape echo machines.
Step 1.
- Remove the lid
- Remove tape loop cover and discard old tape loop
- Remove the metal tape head cover via the two small screws at the back of the cover to expose the playback and record heads
- Remove the black rubber disc cover from the to of the black pinch roller to expose the screw, this is often already missing if you don't have one.
- Remove the the lower bearing where the tape comes out of the housing, there are two types of bearings that could be here, one with a large plastic inner or one with a small one but we'll get into that a bit later. There are two very thin copper washers one at the top and one at the bottom, don't lose them!
Step 2. Clean It!
- Using isopropyl clean everything with a cotton bud, the tape heads, pinch roller and spindle, check the spindle for burrs that can cause the tape to stop. Rollers last for ages, if you have problems the tension is more likely the problem than the roller but more on that later, don't use any abrasive material on the roller, you want it to be smooth, it will look worn but it should still be fine.
- Use a demagnetizer to demag the heads, these can be bought cheap on ebay for about $20, plug the demag in away from the heads, slowly approach the heads and without touching them drift over all the heads with an even and slow speed, you will feel the magnetic force as you do, slowly pull away and unplug the demag.
- Remove the rubber pinch roller and clean the shaft and inside the roller, there will be black grease residue, clean all of it, it is important not to leave any as it can cause the roller to jam. Place a drop of Machine Oil on the spindle , found on ebay for sewing machines, and put back the roller, it should spin freely when flicked with your finger.
- Use a knife to cut away the old felts and replace them, you can make your own from 3mm thick felt from a craft shop or piano parts supplier and double sided tape.
- Replace the lower feed bearing, this is the main culprit for warbling and sticking tape, there are two types of bearings here both are common and can be found at any local bearing supplier or online, one type has the larger hole, if you have this the metal bearing cover will have a raised center to fill the hole and a large plastic inner, don't lose the plastic inner! Smaller bearings will have a flat metal cover and a small plastic inner, the inner is less crucial in the small bearing but don't lose it. These bearings are sealed so don't spray anything on them or you'll just ruin them.
Step 3. Set-Up
This is the crucial step, the key to a great sounding echo is tension. The tension between the guide felt leaf spring and the lower feed bearing is THE difference between solid sounding repeats and muffled weak repeats!
- If you have replaced your felts and have noticed the echo repeats are weak or dull try pressing slightly on the leaf spring and see if there is a difference, DON'T BEND THE COPPER LEAF SPRING!
- Use a heat gun or lighter to melt the glue on the two screws holding the leaf spring, you'll notice you can now move he spring up an down and you can set the desired tension, this may take a few attempts to get right.
- On very rare occasions you may need to realign the tape heads, only a couple screws one way or the other on the tape head springs will drastically altar the repeats so be careful.
- If your machine does not self oscillate or oscillates too easily you will need to adjust the internal trimmers, I like to have them oscillate at 4-5 o'clock position as this gives you the most echo repeat range, ideally the 4 o'clock position should give you a perfect infinite repeat with no oscillation with 5 o'clock tipping it into feedback oscillation.
- Remove the two screws on the side of the machine, remove the screws from the bottom.
- Pull the face slightly forward then straight up, be careful of the reverb tank is attached to the bottom, tilt the whole unit back into the tolex case and check the circuit board.
- some units have markings on the board to indicate the trimmers some do not, the only two timmers you want to adjust are the right side board the Echo Level, this can go to full, and Intensity (INT), this sets the feedback amount.
- On rare occasion you may need to adjust the inch roller force tension, this can be adjusted by accessing the screw nut on the back while the unit is opened and removed from the tolex case.
- Adjust the reverb amount to taste via the set screw inside the machine where the power lead is stored.
- Replace the tape and give it try, continue to adjust to taste.
Ground Hums
Ground hums are a common issue, the main culprit is the connectors for the reverb tank in and out, pull them off clean them and try again if this doesn't help running another ground wire off a pot or other ground point and attaching it to the chassis usually helps.
Also check the connector from the heads to the main board.
Part two on replacing motor bearings later... br> br>
br>Excellent quick guide Rekem
I'd caution folks about buying replacement tension leaf springs, as one I bought from an Ebay supplier in the southern hemisphere (ahem) just hasn't got the same tensile properties as the original - at the moment I've got insulating tape clamping it against the guide - I'll have to re-pad the original and put it back on. br> br>
br>Thanks rekem1000!
br> br>
br>Don't clean the rubber parts with alcohol of any type. It is better to use a window cleaner like Windex or even your own saliva. Alcohol will dry out the rubber and it will crack. br> br>
br>Windex just wont get the brown oxide off as well. Perhaps if you soaked it in alcohol it could dry out and crack but however you do it is up to you.
I should also mention to check the heads as well as the motor shaft for burrs, run your finger gently across the heads and if you feel a little dot flick it off with your nail. br> br>
br>Thanks for this, rekem1000.
I must admit I am two minds about my 201. It is in obvious need of servicing, but it just sounds so damn good in its decrepit state (pitch fluctuations, dropouts, yum!) br> br>
br>latigid on
br>Any tips for the roller not starting on power up? I always have to give mine a little push to get it turning. Is it gunk in the motor/roller or more a PSU problem (sagging caps etc.)? br> br>
br>I'm with Kent on not using alchohol on the rubber parts, I have seen rollers be turned into a gooey mess or gone hard and brittle from using alcohol, you can get proper rubber revitalizer which works pretty well.
If you have a damaged roller that has gone brittle or soft, and you can't find a replacement you can sometimes fix them by fitting heatshrink tubing of the closest possible size, 3 out of 5 that I fixed like this went on to work well after, the other 2 were too distorted out of shape. br> br>
br>Old thread but only just found it. wow, this is great, thank you
br> br>
br>Thanks for rediscovering it! My RE-201 has been on the to-do list for a while. br> br>
br>I've changed the tape on my RE-201 and want to calibrate, or at least check, the bias settings.
The service manual calls for a -50dBm input signal which should give an ideal output of -12dBm - what is that in p-p volts?
I know the Space Echo is easily overloaded but I'm wondering whether a mis-set bias can also lead to distortion. I'm feeding the RE-201 via 'from PA'/ a mixer aux and have cleaned the heads etc. br> br>
br>My RE-201 needs some love. Any tips on replacing motor bearings? br> br>

turns out all it needed was new felts and a good clean. I'll have to get around to changing the bearings eventually but for the meantime I'm back in business.
cheers! br> br>
br>Nice guide. What parts supplier do you use? Looking at Echofix - but it seems bit pricey? br> br>
br>Thats a great guide.
I had been struggling with my space echo for years.
I even gave it to a couple of veteran techs and they both failed to sort it.
Theres a lot of snake oil out there - especially when it comes to tapes. What is the lowdown on what tape should be used. I have bought tape from different vendors who claim to be the knowledge and some of them are unusable.
I dug it out followed a few tips on this guide and it made dramatic improvements. I am ordering a new tape feed bearing and will try to find my demag gun next
If your tape echo uses 19mm tape feed bearing the one you want is 19mm 626-2Z. About £2 normally. br> br>
br>Hi! Anyone have some tips on how to change the tape feed bearings?
Thank you!

Copy Values
This section provides information about Copy values feature.
Copy Values allows to fill in fields in new issue with pre-defined values from template. Once the issue passes a transition with specific post function in workflow, values are automatically copied from the template.
Copy is a different feature than Autocomplete. In Set of fields for Copy, you choose fields that will be copied when a particular transition occurs, without using a template field. Autocomplete functions only after selecting a template in field.
Before you start using Copy Values, configure it with following instruction:
- Go to existing template or create a new one.
- Open Set of fields section in Issue Template Details.
- Select a Set of fields in Copy.
If you would like to configure your Set of fields for Copy, read more here.

Three New Dice Games coming from WizKids!
If you're a fan of dice and dice games, WizKids has got your back this fall!
First up is Blank White Dice. Designed by Jonathan Leistiko, Blank White Dice has players simply rolling their dice and activating the abilities shown on the faces. What makes this game unique is that when a blank face is rolled, players can draw their own icons on to the dice, which will provide your dice with new abilities. I suppose you could call it a face-building game as you roll your way to victory.
The game comes with "wet-erase" markers that are not as easy to rub off as dry-erase markers. The dice are of a very high quality, nice and weighty, bulky – and the die faces are recessed so that the markings don't easy rub off upon rolling. I will say that you'll need a wet cloth around to remove markings as the felt tops of the markers are not enough to remove what is marked upon the die. The game comes with many different cards featuring abilities that may be played upon the die (upon placing their icons on them–see below).
Secondly we've got Burke's Gambit. Designed by Robert Yates, Burke's Gambit is sci-fi themed game of hidden roles and sabotage. One of your crew has been contaminated by a parasitic organism, and to make things worse another member of your crew has sabotaged to ship on a crash course to Earth! Players will take the roles of different members of the ship, roll dice to determine their actions (e.g. attacking other players, healing themselves, scanning for the parasite, etc.), and ultimately vote to eject someone out of the airlock!
Lastly, we have Dice Stars. Designed by Bruno Cathala and Ludovic Maublanc, players are collecting sets of dice that represent multi-coloured shooting stars. On their turns, players can add dice to the pool before rolling them, taking either all the dice of one colour or the dice of one value. Dice taken will help you score in different ways, and the highest score wins!
Look forward to this slate of dice games in October (Blank White Dice), November (Dice Stars), and December (Burke's Gambit). Additional information can be found on WizKid's website.

A few protein adjusted formulas are shown below. Please contact us for additional formulas of this nature or for more information about altering the protein type or content of a diet.
Formula examples:
These diet examples are from a series of diets with the following features: casein-based, isocaloric (3.8 kcal/g) and matched for fat (5.5%), calcium (0.7%), and phosphorus (0.54%). There are other diets available from this series of diets, as well as other unique protein adjusted diets.
Casein is the most widely used refined protein source, but it is also possible to use other refined protein sources, such as "vitamin-free" test casein (alcohol extracted), lactalbumin, isolated soy protein, and egg white solids. These particular protein sources are usually used to achieve a specific research objective, rather than for routine use. For instance, vitamin-free test casein is most appropriately used in vitamin deficient diets, and egg white solids is most suitable for zinc or biotin deficient diets.
Adjusted protein diets usually range from "protein-free" (trace) to 60% protein, depending on the research.

Commercial property transactions, contracts and leases can be extremely complex and confusing, especially if you are unsure of the finer details surrounding them. Not knowing how commercial property law works can lead to problems and missed deadlines, so it is advised to have a team of commercial property solicitors on board to help.
A commercial property refers to any property that is used to generate an income or profit, such as a shop, office, restaurant or hotel. The way that commercial property is managed is different to that of private homes and spaces, especially when considering the buying, selling and renting aspect, and so seeking the help of a commercial property solicitor is very important.
The range of work that a commercial property solicitor can do varies hugely and this is simply because every commercial property case is different and the requirements change; whereas one client may require a commercial property solicitor to assist them with granting a new lease, another may need professional help buying or selling a shop. The key role of a commercial property solicitor is to offer advice on whatever issue is being presented and this includes working on:
We provide a range of help and advice to clients and we are dedicated to securing the desired result with as little stress and worry as possible. At Lewis & Co. we understand the professional legal service that is needed by those who require commercial property help, and we work hard to ensure this is received at all times. Our dedicated team work efficiently to ensure all problems are resolved as quickly as possible.
To find out more about commercial property or to speak to a commercial property expect, get in touch. Contact us today on 0203 781 7810 or via our online contact form.

Upfront Notebook
They Said It
"We might not be the coolest kid in the classroom, but we're trying."
—Anne Sweeney, co-chairman, Media Networks, The Walt Disney Co., on ABC's turnaround.
"Remember: Jokes about Jeff Zucker are always funny. So a priest, a rabbi and Zucker walk into a bathroom..."
—CBS President Nina Tassler, on the advice her boss Les Moonves supplied for her first upfront presentation.
"We learned the Olympics are a good launching pad. All the shows [last fall] launched. They just weren't very good."
—NBC Universal Television Group President Jeff Zucker, on the promotional value of the Olympics. During last fall's Athens Olympics, NBC tirelessly plugged new shows Father of the Pride, LAX and Hawaii. All flopped.
"The days of this network suffering from multiple-personality disorder are over."
—UPN President Dawn Ostroff, on her network's attempts to deliver compatible programming across its schedule.
No, Really. We're No. 1!
An essential element of any upfront presentation is reminding advertisers you are first—in something. At last week's schmoozefests in New York, each broadcast network found a Nielsen stat that shows it coming out on top.
NBC, having tumbled from first place to fourth in the 18-49 demographic, now hyped its status as the top-rated broadcaster with young viewers making more than $75,000.
CBS could top that one. It boasted that it leads in total viewers and adults 25-54 making more than $100,000. It was even first in 18-49s—if you drop out the Super Bowl that tipped that stat to Fox.
Sometimes it was what the networks didn't tell you. Fox didn't point out that, despite the Super Bowl, it ranked fourth in 18-49s until American Idol returned in January.
Though rejuvenated, ABC was still running third in 18-49s, and that doesn't sound too tempting to advertisers. So instead, ABC execs trumpeted Nielsen marks for their dramas, crowing that freshman sensations Lost, Grey's Anatomy and Desperate Housewives are the most watched new dramas. (Of course, a little show called CSI, which draws about 26 million viewers weekly, is TV's most-watched drama.)
Even The WB and UPN got in on the act. The WB reminded advertisers it is the home for viewers 12 to 34 years old. But UPN says it is catching up and surpassing The WB; it says it is the top destination for women 18-34 on Wednesday night at 8. Well, on some weeks, UPN execs admit, it is No. 2, behind Lost, but that still beats The WB.
PBS didn't present, but we're pretty sure but it still leads in programs that are underwritten by "viewers like you."
Who earned the loudest applause at last week's upfront festivities? We didn't have a decibel meter handy, but a few performances shook the rooms. CBS, after stressing it keeps getting younger and younger, treated advertisers to a live performance of ageless Aretha Franklin. She earned loud cheers, as did as did Jamie Foxx, who in his best Ray Charles style, sang "America the Beautiful" at NBC's presentation.
Who got the loudest upfront welcome? It must have been Uchenna and Joyce, the affable winners of the last edition of The Amazing Race on CBS, who came out to cheers just seconds after the introduction of Race runners-up Amber and Rob drew a relatively muted welcome.
First runner-up was comedian Chris Rock. His childhood in Brooklyn is the inspiration for a new UPN comedy, Everybody Hates Chris. Rock told advertisers to note the timing of his sitcom: "Everybody Loves Raymond and Everybody Hates Chris. White man out— black man in."
The week's only standing ovation went to Desperate Housewives creator Marc Cherry. Decked out in tails and a top hat, Cherry serenaded advertisers with "Beautiful Girls" as the ladies of Desperate Housewives glided across the stage in evening gowns and furs (see photo, page 33). ABC felt the need to share Cherry's act with the rest of the country. The next day, Good Morning America aired clips from the upfront presentation, taking self-promotion to an entirely new level.
In a different venue, the most heartfelt standing ovation of the week went to former MTM and NBC chief Grant Tinker, who received a special Peabody Award at a three-hour luncheon also held last week.
Standing By
Two shows that you won't see on any 2005-06 network schedule now but that still stand good chances of receiving series orders are The Book of Daniel at NBC and the sitcom Old Christine on CBS. Book of Daniel centers on a minister who gets help from a "cool, contemporary Jesus," per NBC's description, as he navigates the challenges of life. CBS' comedy is Julia Louis-Dreyfus' latest stab at a return to network TV. She plays a divorced mom who owns a health club. Network executives say both shows are still in contention.
Latin Without the Flavor
Univision's upfront was noticeably less caliente this year without appearances by novela actors who star in shows from its Mexican program supplier Grupo Televisa. Were they forbidden to attend or disinvited?
The spicy stars have always been a presence at Univision's show but were rumored to be a no-show this year due to the recent legal squabbling between the network and Televisa, which provides Univision about 85% of its prime time content.
Insiders say Televisa instructed its stars to boycott the upfront, prompting Univision to retract its invitation for them to join. They were ... missed.
Counter-programming 'Housewives'
If you can't beat them, at least attempt to be No. 2 in the time slot. That is the attitude toward broadcast TV's two hottest shows, ABC's Desperate Housewives and Fox's American Idol, which have stumped rival network schedulers desperately searching for ways to counteract the monster hits.
Next season, they'll try again. Trying to offset Desperate Housewives, The WB is installing its bawdy male comedy Blue Collar TV at 9 p.m. Sunday. "It is the quintessential counterprogramming," said The WB President of Entertainment David Janollari. The ladies of Wisteria Lane have forced CBS to abandon its usual Sunday-night women-in-peril movies. Instead, CBS is focusing on movies with more male appeal, in the vein of recent Locust and anything starring Tom Selleck. NBC, meanwhile, is preoccupied with Fox's midseason monster American Idol. On Tuesday nights at 8, NBC plans to run weight-loss competition The Biggest Loser and, later in the year, bring in gross-out reality competition Fear Factor.
Melanie, Watch Animal Planet
Will & Grace creators David Kohan and Max Mutchnick, who have new comedy Twins on The WB next fall, suspect the network recruited them for another job: to make the WB a little "gayer." At The WB's upfront last week in New York, the duo offered up a few suggestions: Among their ideas:
Change the network mascot from a frog to a lesbian
Next fall on The WB: Ryan Seacrest and Clay Aiken are the Gilmore Girls.
Jack and Bobby: A love story.
Take sitcoms Reba and Living With Fran and combine them into Reba's Living With Fran.
Mutchnick quipped: "Smallville?" I don't think so. How about Hung-like-a-Horseville?"
That last one grabbed Twins star Melanie Griffith's attention. When Griffith drifted on stage to plug her sitcom, she giggled, "I would totally watch Hung-like-a-Horse-Ville."

You've all heard about the stories of Estonia as the e-society like E-stonia: The EU's digital pioneer? or Not only Skype or 'This is so freaking huge man, it's insane': The plan to let anyone become European – digitally or Why Estonia Has Started Teaching Its First-Graders To Code or Is Estonia leading the way for cybersecurity? or in Chinese: 遇見未來城市 愛沙尼亞E革命 躍身科技強國 but have you ever wondered where could it all lead up to?
These stories are inspiring and as a member of this society I fully enjoy the benefits of the system (I truly could not imagine my life without the digital ID-card any more). But what makes my curiosity even bigger is to imagine where this kind of e-society could lead to.
Lately I heard a very inspiring presentation from Estonian ICT Export Cluster (the ones responsible for coordinating the e-society infrastructure) and the background of the whole system. Without getting into technical details it is worth mentioning that the backbone of the e-society is something that they call X-road or the root platform that everything in the e-society is built upon. Without the X-road every new innovation would have to be built separately and would be extremely expensive (this is one of the reasons actually why so many countries have failed to achieve the amount of innovation similar to Estonia).
X-Road is mostly open source platform meaning that the next big innovation could also come out of a company or a startup – for example using big data you could build a real estate website that has the information about every single square meter of the land of Estonia. X-Road offers literally unlimited possibilities for innovation containing the public information of every single citizen of Estonia (+ about 10 million virtual citizens in the future).
Getting back to innovations that the government is planning in the near future I also noticed one other big project that might not hit the international headlines (being not so sexy) but is still equally important to highlight. It is the plan to bring the whole X-road data to the cloud by building "Data Embassies" all around the world meaning actual server rooms in different friendly partner states that will have the same laws as the real embassies – basically being a territory of Estonia.
What it actually means is that if you would drop an atomic bomb to the country and destroy everything on the land of Estonia, it would have absolutely no effect on the X-road or to any of the data the whole e-society contains.
Estonians are very adventurous people – there are considered to be more Estonians living abroad than there are in Estonia, plus a huge amount travelling (mostly because of the weather) and working abroad in any specific moment. So indeed, if Estonia would be fully destroyed (or occupied) the X-Road, the E-society, and really the country of Estonia could continue in full functionality in the cloud lead by the citizens and the ~10 million digital citizens living outside the territory of Estonia.
Now this is big. Together with all the other E-society innovations (digital identity, digital elections, digital government, digital business management etc), it basically means that a country could become immortal. It is like Estonian way of saying "screw you Russia!" … or Germany, Denmark, Sweden (the countries that have occupied Estonia in the past) or others that might be interested. A psychologist could say that this is their way to deal with the history of 750 years of slavery and is thus their unconscious fear of losing the freedom again — immortality being the ultimate manifestation for freedom.
If other countries will follow in the future (and they will sooner or later) this means that any kind of physical army and military looses its point, fully! Imagine a country that will spend billions of dollars to invade another country and getting nothing in return because the whole country, economy and money is virtual. Well yes, you could get some natural resources (which Estonia basically doesn't have) but the value of these are also getting significantly smaller in the future. Can total world peace be our inevitable future?

Jake Ly turned in his basketball uniform for a racket and helped the South Torrance boys tennis team defeat Redondo, 11-7, in a nonleague match on Monday afternoon at Redondo High.
Ly, who averaged 9.9 points per game as a forward for the Spartans' 5-21 boys basketball team, made a smooth transition to tennis as he swept his three singles sets for South in its season opener. Ly won his sets, 6-2, 6-0, 6-1.
Also sparking the Spartans were Nick Lench, who won two of three singles sets, and the doubles teams of Eric Hwang-Kouske Maeda and Elliott Park-Tomo Takatsu, which also took two of three sets.
In another nonleague match …
West Torrance 14, Bishop Montgomery 4: Andras Cruz-Aedo swept his singles sets and the teams of Justin Yoo-Justin Chon and Eric Valderama-Ratan Narayanan also swept for host West in its season opener.
Briana Grayson hit two homers in the same inning – a solo homer and a two-run blast – to lead Port of L.A. to an 18-2 five-inning victory over visiting Orthopaedic. Brandi Sutcliffe struck out nine in three innings of relief to earn the save for winning pitcher Eliana Garcia. Alima Vivch went 4-for-5 with three RBIs for POLA (1-0).

World number three Angelique Kerber has crashed out of the China Open in the round of 16.
The Wimbledon champion was beaten in three sets by local favourite and world number 45 Zhang Shuai on Thursday morning at the Beijing National Tennis Center.
Zhang breezed through the first set 6-1 but was then pegged back in the second by the German, who took the second 6-2. However, the 29-year-old Tianjin-born Chinese was not to be denied and won the decider 6-0 to set up a quarter-final showdown against US Open champion Naomi Osaka.
Kerber, speaking to Sky Sports after the game, spoke of a knee injury that had hindered her movement during the game, but insisted it did not affect her game. The third seed said of the match: "I was not feeling the best at the beginning of the match, but then I was playing better and better. At the end she played a good third set - she took her chances and played a really solid match."
Speaking to the press after her win, Zhang said: "Being able to compete in the China Open, being in the centre court, this is something I'm really proud of in my career. I thought I could defeat a former number one, a Grand Slam champion, and this is something I will be proud of for the rest of my life."
Looking ahead to her game against Osaka, the Chinese told the WTA's official website: "Today Kerber was the Wimbledon champion, and tomorrow it will be a US Open champion. My goal is to play the best I can. I think Naomi is a really good server, very aggressive, and I hope there will be something I can learn from her."
Meanwhile, Osaka hammered Julia Goerges 6-1, 6-2, while 11th seed Kiki Bertens lost 6-4, 6-3 to Katerina Siniakova. Later today, China's other remaining participant in the tournament, Wang Qiang, takes on Karolina Pliskova. Wang received a wildcard invitation to the event, but secured a superb 6-0, 6-0 win over 2017 French Open champion and world number 13 Jelena Ostapenko in the previous round.
In the men's tournament, top seed Juan Martin del Porto is safely through to the quarter-final, after a 6-4, 7-6 win over Russian Karen Khachanov. Fourth and fifth seeds Fabio Fognini and Kyle Edmund are also in the last eight after wins over Andrey Rublev and Matteo Berrettini respectively.
Second seed Alexander Zverev takes on Tunisian Malek Jaziri later on Thursday, but Grigor Dmitrov, who was seeded third, lost to Dusan Lajovic yesterday afternoon.

Arribas was very friendly at the game, coming up to me as I was taking photos, asking about them, etc. When I said that they were for my own "baseball cards" he commented that he hadn't been on a baseball card yet and to make sure I spelt his name right :) I explained that unfortunately, they were just ones for me and not ones that anybody else would see except for this blog, so hopefully he gets to read this, or gets an official card made by Dingo in one of the later Sydney Blue Sox series.
