    168 Swoard H

    It's this years 168 Swoard (middle picture) with the hard flex pattern. Brand new Bomber Trench Digger 3 (this years) bindings (not step ins). Ridden 4 times, but I will deal... I of course need money for medical expenses and loss of work time. I tried to send you an e-mail but its blocked. I can talk to you on the phone. Just let me know how to contact you. I can get a digital picture for you but, its just like the one in the picture here. Pretty much no damage from the short amount of time on the snow. Thanks

  5. http://dprogram.net/2009/11/13/video-financial-expert-gerald-celente-american-public-losing-everything-to-fascist-oligarchs/ Gerald Celente is one of the world’s best trend forecasters. In the following 4-part radio interview, Celente blasts current political and economic “leadership” as beholden to large corporate and financial interests. As I’ve documented, professionals who work with economics are using unprecedented harsh language in attempt to get Americans’ attention to the loss of trillions of our collective dollars. His comments include (paraphrased): “Too big to fail” banks are anathema to real capitalism. US economy is like a ruthless mafia ripping-off the American public. The US is being looted. US economy is no longer capitalism, it’s oligarchies and fascism. We are witnessing the greatest heist in American history, and the banks are doing it. “I don’t like getting raped. I don’t like my money going to Goldman Sachs.” “Do you have eyes to see and a mind to understand? These crimes are an affront to my intelligence.” Bankers are money junkies lying to get their money fix. We have a criminal gang of money junkies dealing scams to get money from us. They never have enough. And for what? For gambling. This is no different from the French Revolution. The money junkies are in for a shock. The second American Revolution has begun. They are not my political leaders; they are political hacks. We are going back to royalty and serfs. This country doesn’t have a clue what’s going on, their minds have been deadened looking at presidential reality shows and bowing to political demagogues. What people have to do more than ever is think for themselves. And reform is not on the way. Senator Bird’s “reform” bill is nothing but empty rhetoric. My favorite economic analyst, Washington’s Blog, gives a great overview. One helpful context to consider is the American economy is suffering from parasites. As always, please share this article with all who claim they want economic competence. If you appreciate my work, please
  6. ------------------------------------------------------- Cosmic Sounds: Yes: song "Awaken" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtHVOLK56tI&feature=related Peter Gabriel Plays Live: song: "San Jacinto" Planetary Chronicles 1 by John Serrie (Master of Space) Brian Eno: "Apollo" "Learning To Fly" (P. Floyd)Jon Anderson "Solid Space" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mu7nXxSIQzA “Awaken”. Quite clearly, the last of the great Yes epics, this symbolic masterpiece boldly and grandly brings us to the pinnacle once more and shows us what lies beyond the norm and what lives in the mind of greatness. The piano mischievously dances into view like a pixie inviting you through the garden wall. It tempts you with the melodic treasures of what is yet to come; teases you with one step closer to the variation on the theme and eventually succumbs. The listener is transported to a place, the likes of which no one theretofore had ever been: a golden land of shimmering musical perfection you can almost feel and taste. The high vibration goes on... to the sun. Cascading guitar scales announce the presence of the main theme: almost a march-like feel, with all five members playing various percussion instruments to give this section its 'biblical odyssey' atmosphere. Waltzing through a maze of musical convolutions, the mind is transformed and transported to nearly every point in the galactic map of Yes' universe. The pipe organ, the lap steel, the wonderfully unpredictable precision of the bassline, the lyrical and vocal ballet between Jon and bassist Chris Squire culminate in a mellifluous cacophony of sound and imagery and vision and wonder and magic and subtlety and quietly dissipate to the brilliant recapitulation of the glorious opening theme. Standing hand in hand with the main character one last time, a fading pulsar image sweetly glimmers into the darkness and this masterwork leaves you ...enlightened, enthralled, entertained and thoroughly satisfied.

  10. "Take It Back" "Her love rains down on me easy as the breeze I listen to her breathing it sounds like the waves on the sea I was thinking all about her, burning with rage and desire We were spinning into darkness; the earth was on fire She could take it back, she might take it back someday So I spy on her, I lie to her, I make promises I cannot keep Then I hear her laughter rising, rising from the deep And I make her prove her love for me, I take all that I can take And I push her to the limit to see if she will break She might take it back, she could take it back some day Now I have seen the warnings, screaming from all sides It's easy to ignore them and G-d knows I've tried All this temptation, it turned my faith to lies Until I couldn't see the danger or hear the rising tide She can take it back, she will take it back some day She can take it back, she will take it back some day She can take it back, she will take it back some day" Lyrics Pink floyd

I say apparently because at the time of writing I could find no media coverage of the matter, and neither Slater nor Hardy responded to my requests for information, which proves that it’s true, right? Anyway, my sources are reliable and highly-placed, so remember where you read it first. The tour, with nine-times world champion Slater as its figurehead, will consist of eight events offering more than a million bucks prize money, as opposed to the current $US300,000 on the ASP Dream Tour, with first round losers walking away with $US40,000. With the worst performer guaranteed $US320,000 a year to show up, this would mean that surfing’s elite could at last feel relaxed about giving their all to the tour. When you consider the case of Straddie’s Bede Durbidge, who started his year without a sponsor and finished it at number 2 to Kelly, that means a lot. The word on the tour is that all events will be covered by cable sports network ESPN and packaged for global sales, which sounds eerily familiar. But what hasn’t been spelled out yet is how it will differ from the ASP tour, and knowing Slater’s views on this, I suggest it will be very different. For years Kelly has been a severe critic of the ASP’s judging criteria (with more than 40 tour wins under the belt, I wouldn’t be rocking the boat, but there you go) and even put on his own invitational event in Fiji to showcase his more adventurous ideas. Over time, the ASP has actually adopted some of them, like overlapping heats, but the pace of change has never been fast enough for Kelly. His personal view of the “dream tour’’ is a small number of elite surfers competing in high quality waves with a license to thrill, the judging criteria based solely on “raising the bar’’ of surfing performance. In a sense, this is turning the clock back to pro surfing’s roots in events like 1971’s Golden Breed Expression Session, in which the judges simply watched the guys surf all day and then declared the coolest dude the winner. But there has also long been a feeling amongst the top pros that the gulf between contest surfing and creative surfing has been widening. Interesting times ahead for the struggling ASP, which has governed pro surfing through thick and thin for more than 30 years. </CITE><CITE></CITE> </CITE>
