June 9 – Happy Birthday Roy Hamey
The Yankee dynasty was a product of great players but those great players were a product of great front-office management and player development skills. Wealthy Yankee owners like Jake Ruppert, Del Webb, Dan Topping and George Steinbrenner came up with the necessary cash but it was the guys like Ed Barrow, George Weiss, Gabe Paul and Brian Cashman who converted that cash into the rosters that won pennants and World Series. And because the Yankees have been so successful for so long, even their GMs become legends and get inducted into Cooperstown. So how come nobody remembers Roy Hamey?
Henry Roy Hamey succeeded George Weiss as the Yankee GM right after New York had been dramatically upset in the 1960 World Series. Topping and Webb were the Yankee co-owners at the time and it was their decision to fire Casey Stengel after losing to the Pirates and make Ralph Houk the team's new skipper. It was also their decision to simultaneously force Weiss out as GM and replace him with his former assistant.
Weiss had been the guy who originally hired Hamey to run the Yankees' Class A minor league franchise in Binghamton in 1934. He did such a great job there that Weiss promoted him to run New York's top minor league franchise in Kansas City. The two men made New York's farm system the best in baseball and Weiss fully expected to become Yankee GM when Barrow retired and Hamey fully expected to replace Weiss as director of the team's minor league operation. What neither man expected however was Larry MacPhail becoming part owner with Webb and Topping of the Yankee franchise in 1946 and effectively making himself the team's new GM. Weiss licked his wounds and stuck with the organization but a disappointed Hamey jumped ship and became president of the American Association. A year later, he was hired as GM of the Pirates. He spent three seasons in that job but when he failed to produce a winning team he was replaced by Branch Rickey.
That's when Weiss, who had finally become Yankee GM in 1947, rehired Hamey to serve as his assistant GM in New York. Hamey remained in that post for three years, leaving to become top dog for the Phillies in 1954. He once again failed in his efforts to build a winning club and "resigned" in 1958 to go back to work in his old job as assistant Yankee GM. The rumor at the time was that the Yankees had tried to hire Milwaukee Braves' GM, John Quinn for that job but he wanted assurances that he would replace Weiss as GM when Weiss retired or was let go. When New York wouldn't give Quinn that guarantee, the GM of the 1957 World Champions accepted an offer to become GM of the Phillies, replacing Hamey. If in fact Hamey was fired by the Phillies it proved to be the biggest break of his career because it put him in place to succeed Weiss two seasons later.
Hamey served as GM of three Yankee teams. Those three teams won three AL Pennants, two World Series and 309 regular season games. He also managed the Yankees first three amateur drafts. Though its true that Hamey inherited a loaded Yankee roster he did engineer several key acquisitions and call-ups during his short tenure at the helm. His biggest trade, which took place in November of 1962 was a controversial one in which he sent the popular Yankee first baseman, Moose Skowron to the Dodgers for pitcher Stan Williams. It was definitely the right time to deal Skowron but Williams turned out to be a dud in pinstripes and the deal was not remembered kindly by most Yankee fans of that era.
In 1964, Topping and Webb asked Hamey to retire as GM so they could promote Houk to that job. Hamey did as they wished and became a part time Yankee scout. When the new Seattle Pilots franchise was struggling to stay afloat after the 1969 season ended, AL President Joe Cronin asked Hamey to run the team until new ownership could be found. That would be the Havana, Illinois native's last job in baseball. He retired to Arizona, where he died in 1983 at the age of 81.
Hamey shares his birthday with this former Yankee manager and this one-time Yankee outfielder.

The Mt Washington Valley Ice Fest will be here before you know it. Make your plans now!
Maybe I'm an old fart too as I hate the crowds with the festivals. But he wasn't dogging ice fest, just making a joking comment about not liking those events. As much as people post about these things being so awesome, there is a group of us that don't find them appealing. He didn't say it sucked and its for losers and resort to name calling. I find it refreshing to see others that don't get jazzed about a huge population coming in. As much as it brings in business, it also destroys climbs for a while, if not for the season. Just as much you think we're old farts (still in my 20's), we could say you must be egotistic and get validation from being seen at events. As much as you see a positive in these, we see negatives.
Thanks for making my point for me.Lots of people work hard pulling these festivals off and lots of climbers enjoy them. You don't enjoy them(which is cool if it's your thing), so you avoid them. Why not just avoid the "Icefest thread" too? Just saying.
Actually I am haveing some doubts and concerns about how commercial guide companies make money on our public lands in a way that drasticly impacts the outdoor experience for the folks who just want to enjoy the cliffs without trying to make money.
It's about community in my opinion... celebrating the lifestyle of climbing... I LOVE seeing so many ice climbers get together and share stories, inspiration, first swings, future plans, check out new gear, show off old gear, make new friends, find new partners, win swag, drink free beer, etc, etc, etc...

A tense House Judiciary Committee hearing was held Wednesday on the impeachment of IRS Commissioner John Koskinen, and it seems unlikely there will be a resolution this month. Koskinen fielded questions about a scandal -- that the agency applied extra scrutiny to conservative groups that applied for tax-exempt status -- that has badgered the IRS since before he became commissioner. How did this come about and what's expected to happen next in Congress?

The genius behind the strategy of packing the Rogers Centre with Red Sox and Tigers fans has decided to take his show on the road, having had enough of Toronto and its general apathy towards baseball.
Jeff Blair reports that Patrick Elster, who has suffered through a life lived as the brother of Kevin Elster, decided to move on from the Jays as early as last December. This may explain his "fuck it, I'm outta here anyways" approach to selling tickets this year, which has resulted in a net drop of about 40,000 fans over the first 30 home dates.
Not that you can attribute all of this decline to Elster. The Jays have yet to have a really compelling opponent (i.e. Boston or the Yanks) come to town for a weekend series since the notorious opening weekend. It will be interesting to see if this weekend's matchup against the Cubs attracts many fans from across the Midwest, although given higher gas prices and the pain in the ass of getting back and forth across the border these days, the Jays won't be able to count on the visitors' fans packing the Dome.

Building 12 at Governors Island
Building 12, Sections D, E, H, I and P Governors Island
Tribeca / Downtown
September 1 - September 30, 2012
Reception: Saturday, September 1, 11 - 6 PM
Web Site
4heads proudly presents the Fifth Annual Governors Island Art Fair, which will be free and open to the public every Saturday and Sunday, September 1 – 30, 2012 from 11am to 6pm. Powered by a group of New York-based working artists, this event calls together more than 100 international artists to exhibit their work in the landmark architecture of Governors Island in New York Harbor.
When it began in 2008, the Governors Island Art Fair was little more than an idea to bring under-represented art to unused public space; the first edition had 50 exhibitors and no funding. Still, this fine art fair without the fuss drew thousands of visitors. The event doubled in size the next year and it continues to grow. In his article "An Art Fair for the Artists," arts writer Franklin Einspruch describes the Governors Island Art Fair as "a refreshing exception" to other fairs.
This year, the 4heads jury has chosen dynamic talents from around the world to participate in what will be the largest and most exciting iteration of the fair to date. Artists are selected based solely on the merit of their work, and each gets free space and free reign to create a unique exhibition environment. "We believe artists know what is best for their own work," the founders explain.
The Fifth Annual Governors Island Art Fair will span 150 rooms and attic spaces in the historic Army and Coast Guard housing on the southeast corner of the island. A fair-goer's experience will change around every corner with fresh examples of all media: painting, photography, sculpture, video, drawings, performance, installation, and everything in between. Some of the 2012 highlights will include: Parisian artist Aldo Carreda's haunting works with altered fingerprints; performance by New York's Ambrose Martos; a large diorama of politicized faux Hummel figurines by Berlin-born Tine Kindermann; and work by collagist, animator and sculptor, Mac Premo of Brooklyn. Among the more than 100 independent artists exhibiting, select organizations including Golden Artist Colors, NYFA, and the U.K.'s Surface Gallery will be showing and supporting many of their artists as well. A complete list of exhibitors can be found on the event website, www.4heads.org.
Special events, salons, and live music will be interspersed throughout the fair again this year. Attendees can expect additional programming to appear on Opening Day and the Grand Finale in particular. Check www.4heads.org for schedules and updates.
4heads and the Governors Island Art Fair are led by founding members Nicole Laemmle, Jack Robinson, Ernie Sandidge, and Antony Zito, and are supported by the hard work of many volunteers. With an emphasis on beautifying unused spaces, the group is committed to providing diverse venues and forums to present, advocate and serve artists everywhere.
The Governors Island Art Fair( occupies Building 12, sections D, E, H, I and P. Admission is free. Hours are 11am – 6pm on Saturdays and Sundays, September 1 – 30, 2012. Catalogues will be available for purchase for $20.
Governors Island is accessible by a free 7-minute ferry ride from the Battery Maritime Building (10 South Street) in Lower Manhattan or a 3-minute ferry ride from Brooklyn Bridge Park's Pier 6 (at the end of Atlantic Avenue, at Columbia Street) in Brooklyn. For directions and further information or call 212.673.9074 or visit www.4heads.org.

- Page 1 Google Nexus 7 Review
- Page 2 Screen, Battery Life and Verdict Review
Google Nexus 7 Games and Apps
The Google Nexus 7 tablet uses a quad-core Tegra 3
processor and has 1GB of RAM. It's the lower-cost version of the CPU,
seen previously in the Asus Eee Pad Transformer 300, but it's nevertheless powerful.
the difference? There are three main versions of Tegra 3 at present,
and this is the lowest-end of them. The others offer higher clock speed
(up to 1.6GHz), a more powerful GPU (520Mhz instead of 416Mhz) and
faster RAM. However, at present you'd be hard-pressed to notice much of a
difference. Top-end 3D games like ShadowGun and Dark Meadow run
perfectly – as cost-saving compromises go, the low-end Tegra 3 is one
that's very easy to live with. In the Sunspider benchmark, it scored a
respectable 1732ms, which isn't too much slower than the Transformer
Prime with its non-low-end Tegra 3 chip.
one downer is that we found the Nexus 7 isn't compatible with
everything yet – although this is to be expected of a new device that is
not based on something similar. And, the standard caveat still applies:
Apple's iPad offers a much better games selection.
Google Nexus 7 Video and Media
notable is the lack of Google services that are supposed to be the
backbone of the Nexus 7 tablet experience. In the US, Nexus 7 owners get to use
Google Music to stream their music collections from the cloud, as well
as the option to buy TV shows and magazines from the Google Play store.
to big-up these services is the main reason why Google decided not to
include expandable memory – the less you can store, the more convenient
streaming is – and so it's easy to label the Nexus 7 as borked tablet from the
off. Of course, it isn't, though. With a few swipes and clicks, you can
install Netflix, Spotify, BBC iPlayer and apps that'll stream movies and
music from a home NAS box. If anyone's missing out, it's Google.
Google services are expected to launch in the UK in the short-to-mid
term, the delay caused by a lack of deals with record companies and
movie studios here. At present, you can rent films for around £3.49
(£4.49 HD) and buy ebooks.
If you already have your own digital
movie collection, you're unlikely to be impressed by the Google Nexus 7's
native video playback skills. Almost all of our test files refused to
play using the built-in media player, including a vanilla SD-quality
Divx file. The one unexpected exception were our high bit-rate 1080p MKV
files, which all played without a hitch
Patchy playback is far
from a deal-breaking problem, though. With a decent third-party media
player the Google Nexus 7 has enough power to play virtually anything at full
Google Nexus 7 Speaker Quality
Contrary to appearances, the
Google Nexus 7 tablet uses multiple speaker drivers behind the single speaker
grille. They're too close together to produce any sense of stereo and
they don't produce quite as weighty a sound as an iPad. Maximum volume
is decent given the tablet's size but louder material does start to
sound a little strained when cranked. An acceptable performance for the Google tablet, but not
a great one.
Google Nexus 7 Screen
The 7 inch screen of the Nexus 7 works in its favour too. It's an 800 x 1,280 pixel widescreen display, using an IPS panel. The raison d'etre of this screen type is to improve viewing angles far beyond what you get with most laptops or desktop screens – where the image all-but disappears when you turn the screen the wrong way.
Display quality is good, with a sharp image and commendable (if not searing) top brightness. What we find most impressive about the Nexus 7's display is that is packs in as many pixels as last year's (and many of this year's) 10.1in tablets, resulting in 215 dpi pixel density. That's a bit less than the new iPad's 264dpi, but mighty impressive nevertheless.
There are a few minor quibbles, though. Colours are not super-vivid and the luminosity of the backlight becomes quite visible in dim rooms when the screen is held at angle, turning blacks a little grey-ish – AMOLED screens don't display this effect. They also offer better contrast than IPS displays like the Nexus 7's, but they have their own share of problems.
Google Nexus 7 Battery Life
Set to playing an SD-quality Divx file at full charge, and at 50 per cent brightness, the 4326mAh battery on the Google Nexus 7 lasts for over eight hours. This is fairly pedestrian among well-known tablets as a whole, but is impressive in such a small device. Many seven-inchers can't match it – the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 lasts for six and a half hours, for example. Like most tablets from big-name manufacturers, you're not given any access to the battery unit.
Google Nexus 7 Cameras
Google seems to agree with us – taking photos with a tablet just isn't all that attractive. The Nexus 7 has a user-facing camera, for video chat, but there's no sensor on the rear. There's also no dedicated camera app, further reinforcing that even the camera that's there isn't for taking photos with. Skype does come pre-installed, however.
The front camera is a 1.2MP jobbie, and using a third-party camera app we found the shots it produces are packed with chromatic aberration, and lack any refinement or detail beyond the very basics. Do we need any more than this for a video call camera? Absolutely not.
Google Nexus 7 Value
We'll put our cards on the table – the Google Nexus 7 is fantastic value for money. This budget tablet suffers from none of the limitations usually associated with low-cost Android devices. The screen's good, the processor is great and there are no Google goodies left out.
Yes, the non-expandable memory and lack of a video output are disappointing, but we value the good parts here over the slightly increased flexibility of something like the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0. Google and Asus have come up with a winner, and both the rumoured Amazon Kindle Fire 2 and iPad mini will have to pull something pretty special out of the hat to keep pace at this price.
The Google Nexus 7 tablet is one of the best tech bargains of the year. This 7 inch Android tablet is priced so aggressively that every low-cost tablet maker must be terrified. Just as important, it doesn't look or feel cheap either, thanks to the powerful quad-core processor and the texturing of the rear. It's not perfect, and that not all Google services are available in the UK yet is a shame, but this is undoubtedly the best sub-£200 tablet we've seen.

Our friends at Data Science Dojo have compiled a list of 101 actual Data Science interview questions that have been asked between 2016-2019 at some of the largest recruiters in the Data Science industry – Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, Google, Netflix, Expedia, etc. Data Science is an interdisciplinary field and sits at the intersection of computer science, statistics/mathematics, and domain knowledge. To be able to perform well, one needs to have a good foundation in not one but multiple fields, and it reflects in the interview. They've divided the questions into six categories: Machine LearningData AnalysisStatistics, Probability, and MathematicsProgrammingSQLExperiential/Behavioural Questions Once you've gone through all the questions, you should have a good understanding of how well you're prepared for your next Data Science interview. Machine Learning As one will expect, Data Science interviews focus heavily on questions that help the company test your concepts, applications, and experience on machine learning. Each question included in this category has been recently asked in one or more actual Data Science interviews at companies such as Amazon, Google, Microsoft, etc. These questions will give you a good sense of what sub-topics appear more often than others. You should also pay close attention to the way these questions are phrased in an interview. Explain Logistic Regression and its assumptions.Explain Linear Regression and its assumptions.How do you split your data between training and validation?Describe Binary Classification.Explain the working of decision trees.What are different metrics to classify a dataset?What's the role of a cost function?What's the difference between convex and non-convex cost function?Why is it important to know bias-variance trade off while modeling?Why is regularisation used in machine learning models? What are the differences between L1 and L2 regularisation?What's the problem of exploding gradients in machine learning?Is it necessary to use activation functions in neural networks?In what aspects is a box plot different from a histogram?What is cross validation? Why is it used?Can you explain the concept of false positive and false negative?Explain how SVM works.While working at Facebook, you're asked to implement some new features. What type of experiment would you run to implement these features?What techniques can be used to evaluate a Machine Learning model?Why is overfitting a problem in machine learning models? What steps can you take to avoid it?Describe a way to detect anomalies in a given dataset.What are the Naive Bayes fundamentals?What is AUC - ROC Curve?What is K-means?How does the Gradient Boosting algorithm work?Explain advantages and drawbacks of Support Vector Machines (SVM).What is the difference between bagging and boosting?Before building any model, why do we need the feature selection/engineering step?How to deal with unbalanced binary classification?What is the ROC curve and the meaning of sensitivity, specificity, confusion matrix?Why is dimensionality reduction important?What are hyperparameters, how to tune them, how to test and know if they worked for the particular problem?How will you decide whether a customer will buy a product today or not given the income of the customer, location where the customer lives, profession, and gender? Define a machine learning algorithm for this.How will you inspect missing data and when are they important for your analysis?How will you design the heatmap for Uber drivers to provide recommendation on where to wait for passengers? How would you approach this?What are time series forecasting techniques?How does a logistic regression model know what the coefficients are?Explain Principle Component Analysis (PCA) and it's assumptions.Formulate Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) and Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) techniques.What are neural networks used for?40. Why is gradient checking important?Is random weight assignment better than assigning same weights to the units in the hidden layer?How to find the F1 score after a model is trained?How many topic modeling techniques do you know of? Explain them briefly.How does a neural network with one layer and one input and output compare to a logistic regression?Why Rectified Linear Unit/ReLU is a good activation function?When using the Gaussian mixture model, how do you know it's applicable?If a Product Manager says that they want to double the number of ads in Facebook's Newsfeed, how would you figure out if this is a good idea or not?What do you know about LSTM?Explain the difference between generative and discriminative algorithms.Can you explain what MapReduce is and how it works? If the model isn't perfect, how would you like to select the threshold so that the model outputs 1 or 0 for label?Are boosting algorithms better than decision trees? If yes, why?What do you think are the important factors in the algorithm Uber uses to assign rides to drivers?How does speech synthesis works? Data Analysis Machine Learning concepts are not the only area in which you'll be tested in the interview. Data pre-processing and data exploration are other areas where you can always expect a few questions. We're grouping all such questions under this category. Data Analysis is the process of evaluating data using analytical and statistical tools to discover useful insights. Once again, all these questions have been recently asked in one or more actual Data Science interviews at the companies listed above. What are the core steps of the data analysis process?How do you detect if a new observation is an outlier?Facebook wants to analyse why the "likes per user and minutes spent on a platform are increasing, but total number of users are decreasing". How can they do that?If you have a chance to add something to Facebook then how would you measure its success?If you are working at Facebook and you want to detect bogus/fake accounts. How will you go about that?What are anomaly detection methods?How do you solve for multicollinearity?How to optimise marketing spend between various marketing channels?What metrics would you use to track whether Uber's strategy of using paid advertising to acquire customers works?What are the core steps for data preprocessing before applying machine learning algorithms?How do you inspect missing data?How does caching work and how do you use it in Data Science? Statistics, Probability and Mathematics As we've already mentioned, Data Science builds its foundation on statistics and probability concepts. Having a strong foundation in statistics and probability concepts is a requirement for Data Science, and these topics are always brought up in data science interviews. Here is a list of statistics and probability questions that have been asked in actual Data Science interviews. How would you select a representative sample of search queries from 5 million queries?Discuss how to randomly select a sample from a product user population.What is the importance of Markov Chains in Data Science?How do you prove that males are on average taller than females by knowing just gender or height.What is the difference between Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) and Maximum A Posteriori (MAP)?What does P-Value mean?Define Central Limit Theorem (CLT) and it's application?There are six marbles in a bag, one is white. You reach in the bag 100 times. After drawing a marble, it is placed back in the bag. What is the probability of drawing the white marble at least once?Explain Euclidean distance.Define variance.How will you cut a circular cake into eight equal pieces?What is the law of large numbers?How do you weigh nine marbles three times on a balance scale to select the heaviest one?You call three random friends who live in Seattle and ask each independently if it's raining. Each of your friends has a 2/3 chance of telling you the truth and a 1/3 chance of lying. All three say "yes". What's the probability it's actually raining? Explain a probability distribution that is not normal and how to apply that?You have two dice. What is the probability of getting at least one four? Also find out the probability of getting at least one four if you have n dice.Draw the curve log(x+10) Programming When you appear for a data science interview your interviewers are not expecting you to come up with a highly efficient code that takes the lowest resources on computer hardware and executes it quickly. However, they do expect you to be able to use R, Python, or SQL programming languages so that you can access the data sources and at least build prototypes for solutions. You should expect a few programming/coding questions in your data science interviews. You interviewer might want you to write a short piece of code on a whiteboard to assess how comfortable you are with coding, as well as get a feel for how many lines of codes you typically write in a given week. Here are some programming and coding questions that companies like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft have asked in their Data Science interviews. Write a function to check whether a particular word is a palindrome or not.Write a program to generate Fibonacci sequence.Explain about string parsing in R languageWrite a sorting algorithm for a numerical dataset in Python.Coding test: moving average Input 10, 20, 30, 10, ... Output: 10, 15, 20, 17.5, ...Write a Python code to return the count of words in a stringHow do you find percentile? Write the code for itWhat is the difference between - (i) Stack and Queue and (ii) Linked list and Array? Structured Query Language (SQL) Real-world data is stored in databases and it 'travels' via queries. If there's one language a Data Science professional must know, it's SQL - or "Structured Query Language". SQL is widely used across all job roles in Data Science and is often a 'deal-breaker'. SQL questions are placed early on in the hiring process and used for screening. Here are some SQL questions that top companies have asked in their Data Science interviews. How would you handle NULLs when querying a data set?How will you explain JOIN function in SQL in the simplest possible way?Select all customers who purchased at least two items on two separate days from Amazon.What is the difference between DDL, DML, and DCL?96. Why is Database Normalisation Important?What is the difference between clustered and non-clustered index? Situational/Behavioural Questions Capabilities don't necessarily guarantee performance. It's for this reason employers ask you situational or behavioural questions in order to assess how you would perform in a given situation. In some cases, a situational or behavioural question would force you to reflect on how you behaved and performed in a past situation. A situational question can help interviewers in assessing your role in a project you might have included in your resume, can reveal whether or not you're a team player, or how you deal with pressure and failure. Situational questions are no less important than any of the technical questions, and it will always help to do some homework beforehand. Recall your experience and be prepared! Here are some situational/behavioural questions that large tech companies typically ask: What was the most challenging project you have worked on so far? Can you explain your learning outcomes?According to your judgement, does Data Science differ from Machine Learning?If you're faced with Selection Bias, how will you avoid it?How would you describe Data Science to a Business Executive? If you're looking for new Data Science role, you can find our latest opportunities here. This article was written by Tooba Mukhtar and Rahim Rasool for Data Science Jojo.

22. August 2019
We are thrilled to announce the launch of our 2019 UK, US and European Salary Guides. With over 3,000 respondents globally, this year's guides are our largest and most insightful yet. Looking at your responses, it is overwhelmingly clear that the Data & Analytics industry is continuing to thrive. This has led to an incredibly active market with 77% of respondents in the UK and Europe, and 72% in the US, willing to leave their role for the right opportunity. Salary expectations remain high, although we're seeing that candidates often expect 2-10% more than they actually achieve when moving between roles. Globally, we've also seen a change in the reasons people give for leaving a position, with a lack of career progression overtaking an uncompetitive salary as the main reason for seeking a change. There also remains plenty of room for industry improvement when looking at gender parity; the UK market is only 25% female and this falls to 23% in the US and 21% across the rest of Europe. In addition to our findings, the guides also include insights into a variety of markets and recommendations for both those hiring, and those seeking a new role.

property(redirected from Right to own property)
Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Financial, Encyclopedia.
n. anything that is owned by a person or entity. Property is divided into two types: "real property" which is any interest in land, real estate, growing plants or the improvements on it, and "personal property" (sometimes called "personalty") which is everything else. "Common property" is ownership by more than one person of the same possession. "Community property" is a form of joint ownership between husband and wife recognized in several states. "Separate property" is property owned by one spouse only in a community property state, or a married woman's sole ownership in some states. "Public property," refers to ownership by a governmental body such as the federal, state, county or city governments or their agencies (e.g. school or redevelopment districts). The government, and, in particular, the courts are obligated to protect property rights and to help clarify ownership. (See: real property, personal property, personalty, common property, community property, separate property, public property)

propertythings and rights that can be owned or that have a money value. Property also signifies a beneficial right to a thing. In English law, property is either realty, which comprises freehold land, or personalty, which comprises everything else, including leasehold land and land held on trust for sale; pure personalty is the term used to denote chattels and other forms of personal property having no connection with land.
In relation to goods, because of the Sale of Goods Act 1979, there will be an identifiable instant at which the ownership or right of property in the goods passes from seller to buyer. The importance of ascertaining the precise time lies not only in questions of risk but also in cases of insolvency where the destination of the goods to a trustee in bankruptcy, receiver or liquidator can leave the other party to the transaction only with the right to rank for a dividend as a general creditor. The Act provides that property passes when it is intended to pass, i.e. the traditio, or physical transfer, required by the civil law is not required. Property does not pass in unascertained goods. If the parties' intention cannot be determined, certain rules are laid down to resolve the matter.
Rule 1: where there is an unconditional contract for the sale of specific goods in a deliverable state, the property in the goods passes to the buyer when the contract is made; it is immaterial whether the time of payment or the time of delivery, or both, be postponed.
Thus, in the case of a sale in a shop to a customer of an item identified in the shop, property will pass when the contract is formed. Rule 2: where there is a contract for the sale of specific goods and the seller is bound to do something to the goods for the purpose of putting them into a deliverable state, the property does not pass until the thing is done and the buyer has notice that it has been done. The requirement for notice is important if the rules relating to risk are considered. As risk normally passes with property, this notice would have the effect of transferring property to the buyer, who then should consider insuring the goods, even although they are outwith his possession.
Rule 3: where there is a contract for specific goods in a deliverable state but the seller is bound to weigh, measure, test or do some other act or thing with reference to the goods for the purpose of ascertaining the price, the property does not pass until this has been done and the buyer has notice that it has been done.
It is important to distinguish Rule 3 from Rule 2. Rule 2 refers to goods that are not in a deliverable state whereas Rule 3 refers to goods that are in a deliverable state.
Rule 4: when goods are delivered to the buyer on approval, or on sale or return, or other similar terms, the property in the goods passes to the buyer:
- (a) when he signifies his approval or acceptance to the seller or does any other act adopting the transaction;
- (b) if he does not signify his approval or acceptance to the seller but retains the goods without giving notice of rejection, then, if a time has been fixed for the return of the goods, on the expiration of that time, and, if no time has been fixed, on the expiration of a reasonable time.
Rule 5: this rule does not apply to specific goods but to goods that at the time the contract was made were unascertained. Where there is a contract for the sale of unascertained or future goods by description and goods of that description and in a deliverable state are unconditionally appropriated to the contract, either by the seller with the assent of the buyer or by the buyer with the assent of the seller, the property in the goods then passes to the buyer; the assent may be express or implied, and may be given either before or after the appropriation is made. Where, in pursuance of a contract, the seller delivers the goods to the buyer or to a carrier or other bailee or custodier (whether named by the buyer or not) for the purpose of transmission to the buyer and does not reserve the right of disposal, he will be taken to have unconditionally appropriated the goods to the contract.
PROPERTY. The right and interest which a man has in lands and chattels to
the exclusion of others. 6 Binn. 98; 4 Pet. 511; 17 Johns. 283; 14 East,
370; 11 East, 290, 518. It is the right to enjoy and to dispose of certain
things in the most absolute manner as he pleases, provided he makes no use
of them prohibited by law. See Things.
2. All things are not the subject of property the sea, the air, and the like, cannot be appropriated; every one may enjoy them, but he has no exclusive right in them. When things are fully our own, or when all others are excluded from meddling with them, or from interfering about them, it is plain that no person besides the proprietor, who has this exclusive right, can have any, claim either to use them, or to hinder him from disposing of them as, he pleases; so that property, considered as an exclusive right to things, contains not only a right to use those things, but a right to dispose of them, either by exchanging them for other things, or by giving them away to any other person, without any consideration, or even throwing them away. Rutherf. Inst. 20; Domat, liv. prel. tit. 3; Poth. Des Choses; 18 Vin. Ab. 63; 7 Com. Dig. 175; Com. Dig. Biens. See also 2 B. & C. 281; S. C. 9 E. C. L. R. 87; 3 D. & R. 394; 9 B. & C. 396; S. C. 17 E. C. L. R. 404; 1 C. & M. 39; 4 Call, 472; 18 Ves. 193; 6 Bing. 630.
3. Property is divided into real property, (q.v.) and personal property. (q.v.) Vide Estate; Things.
4. Property is also divided, when it consists of goods and chattels, into absolute and qualified. Absolute property is that which is our own, without any qualification whatever; as when a man is the owner of a watch, a book, or other inanimate thing: or of a horse, a sheep, or other animal, which never had its natural liberty in a wild state.
5. Qualified property consists in the right which men have over wild animals which they have reduced to their own possession, and which are kept subject to their power; as a deer, a buffalo, and the like, which are his own while he has possession of them, but as soon as his possession is lost, his property is gone, unless the animals, go animo revertendi. 2 Bl. Com. 396; 3 Binn. 546.
6. But property in personal goods may be absolute or qualified without ally relation to the nature of the subject-matter, but simply because more persons than one have an interest in it, or because the right of property is separated from the possession. A bailee of goods, though not the owner, has a qualified property in them; while the owner has the absolute property. Vide, Bailee; Bailment.
7. Personal property is further divided into property in possession, and property or choses in action. (q.v.)
8. Property is again divided into corporeal and incorporeal. The former comprehends such property as is perceptible to the senses, as lands, houses, goods, merchandise and the like; the latter consists in legal rights, as choses in action, easements, and the like.
9. Property is lost, in general, in three ways, by the act of man, by the act of law, and by the act of God.
10.-1. It is lost by the act of man by, 1st. Alienation; but in order to do this, the owner must have a legal capacity to make a contract. 2d. By the voluntary abandonment of the thing; but unless the abandonment be purely voluntary, the title to the property is not lost; as, if things be thrown into the sea to save the ship, the right is not lost. Poth. h.t., n. 270; 3 Toull. ii. 346. But even a voluntary abandonment does not deprive the former owner from taking possession of the thing abandoned, at any time before another takes possession of it.
11.-2. The title to property is lost by operation of law. 1st. By the forced sale, under a lawful process, of the property of a debtor to satisfy a judgment, sentence, or decree rendered against him, to compel him to fulfill his obligations. 2d. By confiscation, or sentence of a criminal court. 3d. By prescription. 4th. By civil death. 6th. By capture of a public enemy.
12.-3. The title to property is lost by the act of God, as in the case of the death of slaves or animals, or in the total destruction of a thing; for example, if a house be swallowed up by an opening in the earth during an earthquake.
13. It is proper to observe that in some cases, the moment that the owner loses his possession, he also loses his property or right in the thing: animals ferae naturae, as mentioned above, belong to the owner only while he retains the possession of them. But, in general,' the loss of possession does not impair the right of property, for the owner may recover it within a certain time allowed by law. Vide, generally, Bouv. Inst. Index, b. t.

How To Start Vegetable Seeds
Video Transcript
Today I'm going to show you how to get your seeds started for your fall vegetables.
You can start vegetable seeds in just about any container you have available. Whether it's an egg carton or the containers from your grocery store delicatessen, even to the flats and six packs you save from your spring and summer flowers that you buy at your garden centers. The only requirement is the bottom of the container allow adequate drainage so we don't have seeds sitting in saturated soil. That'll lead to fungal issues and a condition called damping off as the seeds germinate. What I've done with this flat is line it with paper towels so it'll hold soil and allow adequate drainage at the same time. So, all we have to do is fill this flat with our soil until it's level and then pre-moisten the soil. And again, with compost and a mixture of vermiculite and Pro-Mix, moistening the soil ahead of time won't be a problem.
If the vegetable produces small seeds, it's best to start by broadcasting the seeds over a flat that's already been filled with soil. So, we can just put a thin layer of soil on top and we don't have to worry about planting depth. Lettuces are an excellent example of a vegetable that produces small seeds. So we're just simply going to broadcast the seeds over the surface and water them in. Okay, so what we're going to do is open the seed packet and because these seeds are so small we'll be careful not to have too many seeds in any one place across the surface of the soil. So, we want to distribute them as evenly as we can. And as you can see, these seeds are no not only small, but they're dark colored. So, that means there're going to be difficult to see once they hit the soil. Okay, now the seeds are in, and all we have to do is cover them with a thin layer of soil. Lettuce seeds, celery seeds and other types of fall vegetables might need light for germination, so we don't want to cover them too thick – just enough so they don't wash away when we water them in, and we absolutely will water them in so they can start imbibing water. That will start the germination process.
Swiss chard is basically a beet that doesn't produces the bulbous root. And they're seeds – what we call seeds anyway — that have several small seeds attached to them. So, in effect we are planting a fruit. Now, swiss chard needs to be planted at about 1/4 of an inch deep, and I'm using a craft stick that's been pre-marked against a ruler at 1/4 of an inch. This way I know exactly how deep I'm making the hole and how deep the seed is planted. So, I'll just come in and make the hole. And again, because the stick has been marked, I don't have to worry about planting these seeds too deep. We're planting two because almost inevitably one won't germinate or will be a weaker seedling, and we'll simply pull that seedling out and have the stronger seedling remaining. And now all we have to do is come in with our fingertips and cover these seeds like so, and they're ready to be watered in.
So, starting seeds for your fall vegetable garden — or any time of the year for that matter — can be just as simple as that. For State-by-State Gardening and the LSU Ag Center, I'm Kerry Heafner.

1. Re: Bootstrap plugin architectureLukáš Fryč May 15, 2012 5:05 AM (in response to Lukáš Fryč)
Okay, let's start with brain-storming, why we actually need components based on widget model.
RichFaces is highly based on JSF AJAX, which basically serves as engine which replaces parts of the DOM (partial-update).
That brings us to the lifecycle of the component - the component is initialized and destroyed each time it is replaced in the DOM.
Some of bootstrap components are CSS-only, which means we can just replace the DOM and don't need to care about lifecycle of component.
But when you start to tie custom events to the component, the component turns into stateful widget and in that case you need to manage its lifecycle.
Sadly, lot of components requires to hook into DOM events to provide high-level functionality or allow user-defined callbacks.
2. Re: Bootstrap plugin architectureLukáš Fryč May 15, 2012 5:21 AM (in response to Lukáš Fryč)
#Idea 1 - decoupled event registration
Bootstrap components aren't stateful - their eventing model works on binding event handlers to body element, e.g.:
$('body').on('click.collapse.data-api', '[data-toggle=collapse]'
That's why it's enough to attach data-* attribute to make the component react on DOM events.
Additionally, we can do the same when listening for high-level (custom) events like hide from collapse's API:
$(body).on('shown', function() {...})
To take this approach further, we can add event bridge, which would listen for all bootstrap's custom events and call the appropriate event handlers, like:

This could actually lead into overhead with eventing.
The second option is to register event callbacks during generic boorstrap component initialization:

and during initialization, we can register appropriate listener to specific element with class bs-event
then when destroying, we can unregister it.
3. Re: Bootstrap plugin architectureLukáš Fryč May 15, 2012 5:31 AM (in response to Lukáš Fryč)
#Idea 2 - component initialization
We have discussed component initialization on-dom-ready. We can use JavaScriptService which is similar to <h:outputScript target="body" /> - it renders the script on the end of the body - and it renders it just once. This approach follows Yahoo's web app performance recommendations.
We could initialize all components in one pass through the DOM:
$.each(".bs-event", function() { .... });
#Idea 3 - component destruction
destruction would be done similarly to initialization
RichFaces provides hook in form of cleanComponent, which does both, cleanData and then custom destroy method.
We could improve it and write own destruction for specific elements (similar to construction ^).
#Idea 4 - component re-initialization after AJAX
This would require new hook in oncomplete event, where all the updated sub-tree will be re-initialized.
4. Re: Bootstrap plugin architectureLukáš Fryč May 15, 2012 8:57 AM (in response to Lukáš Fryč)
I have prototyped the ideas above ^ on sample of accordionGroup
5. Re: Bootstrap plugin architectureLukáš Fryč May 15, 2012 9:18 AM (in response to Lukáš Fryč)
The problem comes in case of jQuery plugins and RichFaces client-side API:
the traditional client-side API for all RichFaces components is:
or using behavior
<rich:componentControl target="id" operation="someFunction"> <f:param value="paramValue" /> </rich:componentControl>
which both generates same JavaScript call:
The jQuery plugins (including BootStrap plugins) has slightly different API:
$('#clientId').pluginName('someFunction', 'paramValue');
in case of accordionGroup:
Two issues there:
- the component root (with #clientId) is not the element for which the plugin was initiated (it is #clientId_body)
- the call needs to contain the name of the plugin: collapse
We could certainly use BootStrap-specific control component:

or we could use auxiliary object bound to the component root as in the case of all other RichFaces components
(this would bring another state to the component, which needs to be handled).
6. Re: Bootstrap plugin architectureLukáš Fryč May 15, 2012 9:32 AM (in response to Lukáš Fryč)
The last concerns is server/client state synchronization.
Plugins needs to set current value to the input (it could be auxiliary one) each time the value is changed.
All form inputs are then collected and their values are sent in AJAX/regular request.
7. Re: Bootstrap plugin architectureBrian Leathem Jul 3, 2012 12:39 PM (in response to Lukáš Fryč)
This is a great start to the discussion - it's unfortunate that the forum software isn't going to be well suited to replying to this multi-topic thread. Perhaps we should start an jira issue for each sub-topic, and carry on the discussion there?
8. Re: Bootstrap plugin architectureLukáš Fryč Jul 9, 2012 5:54 AM (in response to Brian Leathem)
Hey Brian, good point, I will add those subtasks to the JIRA.
9. Re: Bootstrap plugin architectureBrian Leathem Jul 16, 2012 8:41 PM (in response to Lukáš Fryč)
Not a comment on the JSF event bridge, but rather on the jQuery architecture approach as a whole:
I spent the afternoon reading about the jQuery UI widget factory. It provides a "standard approach" for building stateful jQuery plugins, and removes a lot of the boiler-plate javascript for creating/destroying/updating of widgets. Also it provides a nice mechanism for dealing with events / handlers + observers (something which we will do a lot of). The bootstrap js approach is rather an open-slate in this regard (although I do like their data-* approach for plugin configuration).
OTOH I'm sold on twitter Bootstrap / LESS for style and themes.
One constraint I'm wrestling with is the idea that we have to commit our new widgets back upstream. If we create new widgets using Bootstrap styles/CSS names, but write the plugins using the widget factory approach, then we will have no project willing to accept our components upstream.
OTOH, I don't know how realistic it is that our new widgets will actually be accepted upstream, at least not in a timely manner. For a "big" project like jQuery UI or twitter Bootstrap to accept our widget, it would have to be an incredibly popular widget, used by a lot of people. That kind of thing takes time. So we can expect to be maintaining these widgets for a long time ourselves.
So perhaps it is viable to develop jQuery plugins with the jQuery UI widget factory targetting the Bootstrap CSS.
10. Re: Bootstrap plugin architectureLukáš Fryč Jul 18, 2012 3:02 AM (in response to Brian Leathem)
jQuery UI Bootstrap is kind of project to start with then:

Lapu-lapu is in the family of Grouper fish, you can also use fresh catch Sea Bass to this type of clear soup.
This Lapu-lapu fish was caught at Lavan island, Iran by my collegue onboard. I'm quite lucky to have onboard a bunch of Fishin'Guy, especially our Chief Engineer Elmer who is a real pro when it comes to catching fish.
And the saying is really true… The best things in life are free!!!

No Justice of the Peace for the Wickedon September 30, 2008 at 12:00 am
So last week my husband and I completed something we'd started 11 years earlier — that is, we got the one thing our original marriage ceremony lacked: a marriage license.
Yes, folks, we had ourselves a San Francisco gay wedding.
Now, since we'd already had a nice big wedding, and this one was basically a formality, we kept it small and simple, and we let it get silly. The ceremony was performed by one of my oldest friends (who, it turns out, is authorized to marry people in California), dressed as the Green Lantern. Another old friend was the witness, and a friend of theirs took pictures.
I haven't mentioned this event to much of anyone yet, because I really do think of it as just a long-delayed formality.
So anyway, there it is: we now have a little legal recognition. The marriage won't be recognized by our home state, nor our country (not any time soon). But it is valid in California, at least for the time being (vote no on prop 8!). And it would be recognized in some other states, and countries. So that means something to me.
Anyway, I'm writing a similar storyline for Finn and Charlie. Some real elements will make their way into this story, and others will be made up. (For example, I do not know any rabbis in Oakland. Syracuse, yes, but that's all the way across the country.)

For the second year in a row, troops controlled civilian transportation at the Austin Kite Festival, which took place Sunday, March 3, utilizing disaster training to facilitate crowds numbering more than 30,000 against an otherwise idyllic early spring park scene.
Video shows guard units ushering lines onto shuttle buses and coordinating over radio while families and children enjoy the park:
These guard units, controlled by the Governor of Texas and part of the Texas Military Forces, volunteered their services at the busy downtown park location at the request of the Austin Exchange Club, who've operated the festival for 84 years now.
Internet activists became alarmed last year after video was posted of troops patrolling the 2012 kite festival, controlling crowds at Zilker Park while helicopters buzzed overhead. Observers were concerned that it was part of an acclimation effort and exercise drill for martial law in the event of natural disaster or civil emergency.
That these units were drilling based upon these contingencies at the kite festival was confirmed by a spokesman in a March 2012 article:
Assisting the festival organizers and participants gives TXSG soldiers real-world training for the kind of logistical support the organization provides during natural disasters and other emergencies.
"This gives us the opportunity to put our training and expertise into practical use in advance of our response to hurricanes, tornadoes, floods or fires anywhere in Texas when ordered by the governor," [Warrant Officer Darrell Prather] said.
Festival organizers emphasized that the guard units were volunteering their services, urging the public to "give them a big 'thank you!' when you see them."
Remember, it's not a matter of IF you'll need storable food, but WHEN!

BATTERY problems, punctures or engine faults will be the biggest causes of misery for North West drivers expected to break down this Bank Holiday weekend.
National breakdown provider Green Flag predicts that a staggering 7,500 flat or faulty batteries are expected to cause drivers havoc over the weekend, with one puncture per minute to take place on Britain's roads.
Green Flag has revealed the data in the hope of encouraging people to check their cars before they travel to give families the best chance of getting to their destination no matter what.
However, there are still some events that will be caused by a moment of absent-mindedness.
Nine drivers every hour will lock their keys in their car and six drivers every hour will fill their tank with the wrong fuel.
According to Green Flag, the most common causes of early May bank holiday breakdowns between Saturday and today are :
Flat/faulty batteries (7,512)
Punctures /wheel change (3,630)
Engine faults (1,605)
Locking keys inside car (663)
Clutch problems (620)
Using the wrong fuel (467)
Nick Reid, head of rescue at Green Flag, commented: "During the bank holiday weekend, families across the country will be getting in their cars to make the most of the extra time off, so it's no surprise that a high number of breakdowns occur.
"However, the majority of these breakdowns are avoidable if people take the time to check their cars and ensure everything is in working order.
"Before setting out on the road, check your water and oil level and make sure your tyres are at the correct pressure and there's no discernable wear on them.
"If it's been a while since your vehicle's last service or you're contemplating a long journey, have your local garage check your brakes and test your battery. It's better to take preventative action before you set off, than add delays to your holiday with an unwanted breakdown."
Mr Reid said the most basic step was walking around the car looking for any signs of potential trouble before you set off.

Korda: why did you have England trials?
Ian Huntington (pictured right): Those that have been to the World Championships before obviously have experience and a head-start. It's a great baptism for all these anglers because from whatever they've done before, there had never been a selection process like this before. We had three trials – the theme of the first being the endurance-side of things which as it turned out was extremely important, whereas on the next trial was on a technical basis, where the anglers were catching bigger fish in a more traditional carp fishing scenario. This had less relevance as it turned out as luck, as in most English Carp matches, played too big a part with most of the fish ending up in one area of the lake. The third trial reflected team-work and the guys working together, sharing information while they're on the bank, which is something that is totally unheard of in English competition carp fishing. These guys normally fish against each other, so to have them fish together as a team, and share that information is normally against their nature, so we've broken all those moulds, to effectively create what we want as a team.
This whole process is about selecting a team, which did mean that some very good individual pairs that fished did not become part of the team. The management team were to keep a very close eye on each pair, and individual, throughout the trial period and narrowed it down to four pairs. Three that would begin the match in Romania and a substitute pair if required. One thing that was clear; this was a team event and each individual had to work well with others, as well as retain the qualities required to be considered in such a major event.
Korda: How was the team chosen?
Ian Huntington: The venue Lacul Corbu only received ratification from FIPSed in late May this year and a report issued in mid-June through the FIPSed Italian delegation who inspected the venue. This rubber stamped its use for the world championships. We knew from this report that the venue swims had only been built in March /April and the venue only stocked at the beginning of May with hundreds of tons of small fish, consequently the action would be non-stop as we have experienced previously in the World Championships in South Africa. Based on all the information from FIPSed the results from the RIGS series of tournaments held on the venue, together with all the trials information the team was chosen. The focus being on World Championships experience, team spirit and endurance the final team selected was as follows:
Jake and Dan Wildbore. Jake is a former British junior champion and with Dan his brother has been second in the BCAC at senior level. Dan and Jake were also the best performing English pair at last year's world championships in Italy, beating GP Knell of South Africa, a two times individual and four times team World Champion off the next peg.
Billy Flowers and Jamie Londors. Three times world silver medalists in four previous attempts at both team and individual level make them a formidable duo whose work rate at these events is second to none and makes them a formidable pair.
Mark Bartlett and Kev Hewitt. Having never before competed in the World Championships, however they need little introduction. Bart and Kev smashed the 48 hour World and British enduro records in the first trial at Drayton. The rest of the world knew all about these guys before they arrived and they were certainly one the most feared pairs in the competition.
Jack Stamp and Kia Sanger. Also having never before competed in the World Championships, however they have been consistent winners in their BCAC qualifiers on big hit waters, also very solid performances throughout the England trials process winning two out of three sections, not to mention being UK Carp master's winners.
All in all a formidable team I think you will agree. Of course, one of the most important factors in succeeding in an event of such magnitude is preparation. Ian and Pete had placed a lot of thought in rig mechanics and bait. They even visited the venue months in advance to form a strategic plan.
Korda: What about the tactics for the 2012 World Champs?
Ian Huntington: Bait, it was clear from the visit that our main strategy should be formed by fishing boilies over free offerings of the same. Fishmeal type boilies and soluballs were evident in every swim and it is clearly what the fish are used to being fed on. The throwing stick will play a major part. Pasting baits and fishing in conjunction with two bait stringers. Maximum range fishing should be with pasted singles.
We noticed the soluball approach. We even discussed this with some of the finest bait brains in the country upon our return. Unfortunately the key to the match and what we did not know was the lake had been corrupted onto one single type of bait. Since the fish were stocked in May 2012 and while at the fish farm prior to this they had been fed solely on this bait. Consequently countries that had been and practiced were aware of this and managed to get some local bait to enable them at least to take part in the event. The Bulgarians who are next door to Romania commissioned their own bait based on what had been fed to the fish. Portugal and Serbians had contacts in Romania who provided local bait. The fish were fed daily throughout the summer by boat on the Romanian bait on fixed lines parallel with the bank so the host countries were not taking any chances. Imagine feeding a lake in this country with only one bait for a year and then holding a match on it, the outcome would be just the same as Romania. Those with the introduced bait would do well and the rest would really struggle to get a bite.
From our point of view and bearing in mind you are kept behind lines when you visit it's difficult to have foreseen this coming without actually practicing on the venue and within two hours of the match starting we were asking ourselves questions about the bait. We later found out from the South African team and the French team consultant Ronnie De- Groot that they had also brought different English bait from two other leading English manufactures, most of which stayed on the pallets and was not used at all in the case of South Africa. That's 1.5 ton of bait or £10,000 of bait left on pallets.
Korda: Did you imagine the event to be as big as it was?
Ian Huntington: Having fished in five previous World Championships with Pete we were still amazed our hosts had put on such an amazing event. The South African event had been amazing and the teams silver medal very satisfying, however the sheer scale of expense the Romanians had gone too with three different themed gala dinners, open top bus parades around the city not to mention the spectacular fireworks displays really set this event apart.
It was then completely eclipsed by the second nights opening party where all 21 countries plus press and invited guests were treated to a ball room banquet fit for Kings which when compared to all previous carp fishing tournaments we had attended really did stand head and shoulders above.
The following day did however bring with it the draw and the start of the match so slowly and unsurprising quite reluctantly the management of the participating countries began to call time and usher the competing anglers back to their hotel.
The draw, as expected, was a nervy, tense moment and without doubt the most important part in any match. This was short-lived however, when each of Team England received a pleasing draw. The talented Hewitt and Bartlett drawing a renowned productive end peg in Section A was the most notable.
It was clear that the England Team meant business and worked tirelessly throughout that first day and night to grasp this daunting venue. However, by morning they were well behind. The local knowledge fired Romania into a huge lead and by the morning of the second day they were already ahead on points with over 800kg. They where chased by Bulgaria, Portugal and the Serbians.
Unfortunately, this was the theme of the match. As England moved further and further behind, it was clear that something was wrong. They were fishing out of their skin, far more methodical and accurate than other pairings that flanked the English, yet they where unable to buy any consistency in their catch rate. Their efforts could not be questioned.
The Romanians had been canny. The newly stocked carp had been born and bred on a certain bait and indicated an almost inherent urge to feed on this certain boilie. Unfortunately, this was the instrumental component that lead to the demise of the English attack and ultimately to the success of the Romanian catch rate.
The carp were so preoccupied by this now "natural" food source that they would rarely feed on anything else. It dealt the killer blow to the England and we feel that this edge would certainly have given England the necessary tools to have competed for a medal.
By the end of this epic match which saw Romania and Bulgaria battling it for first place, and England finishing in a disappointing 18th, the home nation succeeded by a whisker.
Looking forward to 2013 the England team having now fully debriefed and are looking forward to Portugal. Korda have expressed their huge confidences in this young team and will continue to be a supporting element to the team.
It's set to be yet another highly contestant event with all participating nations feeling confident of a good result.
Korda: And for 2013?
Ian Huntington: Hard lessons have been learnt and it has been a very difficult experience to pick the team and ourselves up after this event. Team sponsors have also invested money and support and many people have given up their time as volunteers in the trials to try and raise our chances of winning the team gold medal for the first time.
Firstly the corruption of the water as described above, while this is strictly not against the rules and the Romanians freely admitted to doing this there is the morale issue here and in the interests of fair play and fair contest this can't be right. I have already spoken to Dick Clegg about this and he is going to take the issue up with FIPSed at this year's November meeting in Italy. While we appreciate the Lac Corbul is unique and its fish stock brand new thus making this corruption of the water more possible, it will not ultimately deter other host nations following suit leading to a potential breakup of the competition.
Practicing, the team needs to go and practice a number of times prior to the world champs. The days of just turning up and hopefully being lucky with our approach from information gained off the internet are over. Unfortunately this all takes time and significant money which has to be found if we are to compete. The South Africans spent 100k this year and went home without a medal. The Bulgarians said they spent 80k and they live next door and went home with silver. The Romanians spent in excess of two million euros creating the venue and hosting the event.
As a management duo we have generally sacrificed our whole fishing season organizing the trials, team meetings, workshops with specialist consultants, all for this event. The only shining light in all this is the team's own preparation and commitment to the process and each other which has been something really special to behold and be extremely proud of. If we were going back tomorrow we would still take the same team as what we witnessed in Romania was a true English team spirit and grit in the face of extreme adversity. As mentioned, this all takes time and a commitment to the England cause and also means giving most of their other fishing up next year to solely concentrate on the world championships venue in Portugal, if we are to have any chance of winning a gold medal.
England team member Jake Wildbore commented 'As a team we have been through highs and massive lows. The team is more unified than ever before. This year's event had all the necessary elements to ensure the team a good result. The unforeseen and unfortunate circumstances that restricted our efforts have been forgotten and the team will learn from this year and approach Portugal with a clear head and even more conviction.'
