Chicago 2016 Olympics Bid by Richard Cunningham

Oprah Winfrey, the famed talk show host who recently renewed her contract to keep her show in the Windy City has offered her services to help bring the Chicago 2016 Olympic bid to a successful close according to a report in the Chicago Herald Tribune (We can just picture it now, Oprah sitting the IOC members down for a confab and saying "can we talk?"

And then the people from the committee all discussing the need for better communication and understanding, followed finally Oprah getting them to all agree and that famous "aha moment" when they say "yes, we'll send the Olympics your way, thanks Oprah!").

She doesn't have long to make her case however, since the committee will be making decisions within a week's time on October 2 in the city of Copenhagen, Denmark. However, Oprah is hoping that her star power as the Queen of the talk show circuit (in the United States and in truth the world over - The Oprah Winfrey show, along with that of her protege, "Dr. Phil" is broadcast in dozens of countries, including places as varied as the UK and Israel).

If she decides to go along for the ride, she would be joined by several other celebrities, most notably America's First Lady, Michelle Obama (Apparently the President has at this time decided not to go himself to present Chicago's case since he is busy arguing for his health care reform bill - of course even if he wasn't, after his failed confab with Benjamin Netanyahu and Mahmoud Abbas last week, he is probably licking his wounds and doesn't want to get into another situation where his star power may not be enough to make the case).

Another high powered star from Chicago land however will be going to make the case for the Chicago 2016 Olympic bid: none other than Michael Jordan, the famed basketball star is planning to wing over to Copenhagen and do his part to make the case.

Winfrey is still not certain to go. She has indicated that there is some talk about it and she has discussed it with Chicago's 2016 Olympic bid committee but so far nothing has been finalized. The real question of course is if the President himself is willing to take one more chance and put himself out there. Oprah is nice, but nothing would get the juices going quite like a Presidential visit.

College Football - Ed Bagley's Top 25 Poll - Week 6 by Ed Bagley

Copyright © 2009 Ed Bagley

College football's sixth week of competition was full of surprises for the four teams which lost their unbeaten status, and for the rest of the major college teams that learned why Florida started the season on top of the polls and remains on top after the sixth week of play.

Here are this week's picks for Ed Bagley's Top 25 Poll:

1) Florida - Traveled to No. 4 LSU and its mighty defense and lukewarm offense and won 13-3. Now you know why the Gators are No. 1 and LSU will be sliding in this poll.

2) Alabama - Traveled to No. 20 Mississippi to meet "the golden arm" Jevan Snead, who threw 4 interceptions as the Crimson Tide won 22-3. Here again, gone again. I am kicking Ole Miss out of my poll.

3) Virginia Tech - I thought Iowa was lame and now Texas is worse. The Hokies look more serious than Iowa and Texas put together.

4) Oregon - Lost its season opener and then got religion. Beat Utah, beat California 42-3, beat Washington State 52-6 and now ripped UCLA on-the-road 24-10.

5) Ohio State - Beat undefeated Wisconsin 31-13. Have limited their last 4 opponents to 27 points combined.

Things get really murky from here on in the poll. So many of the following teams have such weak victories over weak teams it is too difficult to see who else is a contender or a pretender.

6) Texas - Probably has more talent than Boise State, but could only beat a 1-5 Colorado team by 2 points while giving away 28 points. How can Texas be really good? Can't rank the Longhorns higher than 6th, and that is a gift they should earn.

7) Boise State - Idle this week, travel to Tulsa next.

8) Southern California - Idle this week, travel to Notre Dame next.

9) Cincinnati - Idle this week, travel to South Florida next.

10) Iowa - Got by Michigan but not by much. Travel to Wisconsin next.

11) LSU - Have a week to recover before facing Auburn.

12) South Florida - Unbeaten and just as deserving as TCU or Kansas. Host Cincinnati next, a big deal for the Bulls and coach Jim Leavitt.

13) Nebraska - Starting to act like a better team than TCU or Kansas.

14) TCU - Another lame win, this time over Air Force by 3.

15) Kansas - Another insanely lame win over by 5 over Iowa State while giving up 36 points. How long can Kansas stay undefeated? My guess? Not long. They face a pathetic Colorado team next and then get Oklahoma.

16) Miami (FL) - Beat a 1-AA team. Schedule gets easier than pie.

17) Oklahoma State - Won by 5 over Texas A&M while giving up 31 points.

18) Brigham Young - Goes to 5-1 by crushing UNLV 59-21.

19) Georgia Tech - Goes to 5-1 by outlasting Florida State 49-44. Hosts Virginia Tech next, good luck and God speed.

20) Pittsburgh - Now 5-1 after beating Connecticut 24-21. Hardly a big deal but there are some pretty unimpressive teams in anybody's Top 25 these days.

21) Notre Dame - Idle this week. Host Southern Cal next.

22) South Carolina - Goes to 5-1 by slipping past Kentucky 28-26. Travels to Alabama next. Yikes! Could easily arrive back home at 5-2.

23) Central Michigan - Now 5-1 after ripping the worse major team in the nation—Eastern Michigan—56-8. You tell me a better 5-1 team in the country. Nah, not Penn State; I am not sure they can beat Central Michigan. Penn State likes to play really pansy teams.

24) Idaho - Now 5-1 by playing the 62nd toughest schedule in the nation. The Vandals are no longer a doormat with coach Robb Akey. Idaho was 2-10 last year and has been traditionally one of the weakest teams in the nation. They don't really play a decent team until Boise State down the road, but at least I reward genuine effort and progress.

25) Penn State - My disdain for the Nittany Lions knows no bounds. Jo Pa would have them playing their opponents' grandmothers if they could get away with it. Paterno would play college JV teams at home just to pile up another "big" victory for Happy Valley.

Who have I left out? Whoever it is, let them do something so I can notice. It doesn't take any talent to blow smoke, and it doesn't take any talent to lose. Win and win big and I will put your team in my poll, until then, let the AP Poll and the Coaches' Poll reward lame teams in a popularity contest, I just call some teams for what they are—lame in victory, filled with excuses in defeat.

Brace Yourself for Sports Injuries by Pat Munro

I recently had a sports injury in which I tore my anterior cruciate ligament. I have never felt that much pain in my life. Every movement which required use of my knee was excruciating. Apparently, the anterior cruciate is among the most important structures in the knee because it provides 86% of restraining tension to the joint. The ACL has mechanoreceptors that are sensitive to all knee movements and are important to trigger the muscle reflex actions. This would explain why I had such painful aching in my whole leg not just my knee. Apparently a torn ACL is actually referred to as an ACL deficiency, and affects timing of my knee muscle contraction. My body was trying to compensate for the ACL deficiency by using other muscles, namely my hamstrings. My hamstring reflex contraction has lengthened, and now my knee has limited anterior tibial displacement. In other words, a torn ACL affects the whole leg and can lead to some very serious long term damage.

I have been booked for surgery, but in the meantime I wanted to stave off fatigue, and stay somewhat fit. I was referred to a physiotherapist by my surgeon. He suggested I use a knee brace. It was explained to me that one of the most important factors of sports medicine and rehab management is the use of braces and supports to prevent injuries and further existing ones. It can be used in conjunction with a rehabilitation program that incorporates strength training, flexibility and activity modification. It can provide mechanical protection to the knee area and stability to the joint while I am putting pressure on it. Since the goal of my physiotherapy is to strengthen the muscles around my knee to make up for the absence of an intact ACL, I took his advice very seriously.

Knee braces are made from combinations of metals, foams, plastics, elastic materials and straps. Each brace has a specific purpose.

- A prophylactic brace is designed to protect the knee from injuries in contact sports. A simple brace which is made of neoprene and elastic, it is easily found in most pharmacies and sport stores.

- Functional braces give support to knees which have already been damaged, or injured. These are mostly neoprene and elastic, and can be found online and in medical supply stores.

- Rehabilitative braces limit the knees movements while it's healing, and offer stabilized knee support. It has metal bars to keep the knee from experiencing any torque while healing. Must be fitted properly when purchasing.

- Unloader/offloader braces provide relief to arthritis sufferers and consist mostly of neoprene.

For my particular needs, I was told I needed a rehabilitative brace to provide control and protection before and after knee surgery. Rehabilitative braces are used more than functional and prophylactic braces combined. They are used only to protect injured ligaments and control knee flexion and extension angles during the healing process. These braces are cost effective, especially compared to casting. They allow easy access for treatment and monitoring; their large frame limits excessive movement and sends a message to others to avoid nearing that area. Furthermore, they allow for my therapist to adjust range of motion based on my rate of healing. Rehabilitation braces help my physiotherapist keep pace with the ever changing healing process.

I have been using my brace in conjunction with physiotherapy for a month and the pain is already better. The first 10 days were very difficult, it hurt and I had to apply ice to the area and stay off it in order to allow the injured ligament to reattach to the bone. After a few weeks I was allowed back in the gym with my brace and my therapist, and have begun strengthening exercises. I have no range of motion even after such a short athletic interval. I am not to put excessive weight on that leg while exercising, so I have started swimming and walking in my own time, always with my brace. It is the most important investment I have ever made. I intend to be physically fit my whole life, and will probably need to continue using my brace in order to not hurt my ACL again. That's okay with me. Whatever works, I say.

Free Betting Advice - Laying Horses and Research - The Basics by Keith Driscoll

+Horse Racing Research+

Research is potentially the most essential part of a professional gamblers armoury, as devoid of it we wouldn't have a clue concerning trends. We all know uncomplicated ones, such as non-handicap Favs (Favourites) win more races than handicap Favs, and that is a researched trend. However the professional gambler should find one that the majority of folk aren't aware of in order to profit from it.

In the past we used to take advantage of old copies of the Sporting Life, or Raceform results books, etc, but with computers these days it is much easier to keep your own records or employ such tools as Raceform Online, or RSB (Racing System Builder), Racexpert, Superfom, etc. These services, although expensive, will allow you to trawl through years of data, and come up with earlier trends.

Designing your own horse racing system is easy, although some can be complicated, just begin with a simple rule such as bet the shortest priced forecast horse of the day. This one rule gives you one bet a day, with a 50%+ SR (Strike Rate), and has been profitable over the past few years. However, there is a drawback. Due to the low odds, it is high turnover, for low profits (ROI% around 1%-3%, 5%+ is good), but gives you some idea, and you can add new rules as you progress. Skipping handicap races will increase the SR, and so on.

If I didn't do any research, I would in no way make cash, and it is a specialty you must constantly stay on top of.

+Laying Horses+

With betting exchanges now having a sound foothold in the gambling market, its achievable to back horses, football teams, etc, to lose (LAY), although several bookmakers are starting to give odds for laying, the prices are frequently against you.

It may perhaps sound straightforward to back a horse to lose, as its easier than picking a winner isn't it? But there is a catch the majority don't realise.

Taking an illustration from a recent race that won at an SP of 100/1, it was taken on the betting exchanges at 1000/1. This means that someone who wanted to make a effortless �2 profit, actually lost �2,000!! So he has to find another 1000 losers at �2 stakes in order to get that money back before he even can look at a profit.

For an evens chance (1/1), you have exactly as much probability of picking a loser, as you do of it winning, although statistically in the real world, you do essentially have something like 55% in your favour, as that's what the research shows, but it is still high risk at those odds.

Unlike a win bet when a 10/1 horse is 10/1, if you lay a horse at that price on the betting exchanges you have to take into account the difference involving the exchange price and SP, plus your commission as additional costs. This is what makes laying more difficult to profit from than straight win bets, as you just shell out the commission.

If you're recent to laying, just start at �2 level stakes, prior to moving on to any of the staking plans supplied to members on the site, while you get your brain around it all.

One useful thing on the subject of the betting exchanges is you can lay off any errors. Say you backed horse B with �50, but it ought to have been horse A! Then you lay horse B as well. You'll lose the commission, and the spread between the win-lose price, but its a small percenadditionally of the 50. Not many people consider that option and just let the bet ride only for it to prove expensive.

Also keep your laying and winning banks separate, and as with winning bets, NEVER chase your losses, you will fail in the end. Stick to the staking plans and system rules, and any losses should be recovered over time. Patience, not greed, will see you turn into a winning professional gambler. Remember that last bit of advice it may well save you a fortune.

The Hook Ball - Mastering the Technique of Hooking the Bowling Ball by Johnny Cartwright

Most people, probably including you, start out bowling by using a "straight" shot. With this style of bowling, you simply point and shoot. Bowling with this style is effective, and you can in fact bowl an excellent score using it.

Even so, if you want to be more serious about bowling, or further improve your score, you'll need to learn more advanced techniques, adding more skill than luck to your game.

One of the first advanced moves most bowlers incorporate in their game is the hook ball.

By adding the hook ball to your arsenal, you gain much more control over where the ball travels, and which pins are knocked down.

The reason straight bowling can only get you so far is because you have to send the ball down the center of the lane, and hit pins straight on, while avoiding the gutters (and the dreaded gutter ball).

Few people can consistently bowl strikes with straight bowling -- often it's simple luck dictating where the ball strikes the pin, how much the ball is spinning, and how the pins fly around once hit.

More often than not, by sending the ball down the middle of the lane, you'll end up with a nasty split that is difficult to convert into a spare. Even if you do manage to nail the spare, you still won't be able to win a game against others that are able to hit strikes consistently.

That's where the hook ball comes in.

By using the hook ball, you add spin into your shot, using the spin to send the ball exactly where you want it to go.

Creating the hook is controlled by the way you release the ball.

In general, you should release the bowling ball with your thumb close to the bottom, using your fingers to give the ball some spin. With the right amount of spin, the ball should travel in a fairly straight line, until it reaches the "break point".

The break point is the spot in the lane when the ball begins to turn towards the target, leaving it's straight path. When the ball hits the break point, it should arc outwards slightly, then curve back toward the pins you were targeting.

To get the perfect hook ball, you'll need to analyze your bowling habits. You need to figure out your typical axis rotation and axis tilt -- or the amount of vertical and horizontal spin you usually put on your shots.

You can get an idea of these by the position of your hand when you release the ball -- get someone else to watch or take pictures or video of you while you throw several shots.

Once you've identified your axis rotation and tilt style, you can make appropriate corrections to your game. You can also get the best bowling ball for your style.

For a hook game, urethane balls are perfect. The texture of these bowling balls helps to add just the right amount of spin to your throw.

Once you've got the right ball, you need to practice. Learning how to hook the ball properly takes many throws, as you need to become comfortable with each aspect of the throw -- rotation, spin, location, speed.

It does take an investment of time, but once you've mastered the hook ball, you'll have a bowling technique available to you that will help you to score higher, making more strikes, and giving you a greater chance of hitting difficult spares.

Saving the Spare -- How to Knock Down Those Trouble Pins by Johnny Cartwright

No matter how skilled a bowler you are, you're going to find yourself in a spare situation--and for those of us that are casual bowlers, it happens more often than not.

Picking up a spare can be difficult or easy. It all depends on the location of the remaining pins. Some spares are fairly easy for novice bowlers, such as a single pin standing in the center of the lane. Other situations require more concentration, and a little knowledge of geometry ;)

Splits--when there is two or more pins standing, with a gap in between--are considered the most difficult to spare, and the larger the gap, the tougher the shot.

Single Pin Spares

Potential spares that do not involve splits, are fairly straight-forward. With single pin spares, a straight aim at the remaining pin is often all it takes. Because even a glancing blow will knock the pin over, there's a wide target area to aim for.

An exception to this simplicity is a single pin adjacent to the gutter, especially when on the same "hand" as the bowler. For right-handed bowlers, the 10-pin is the culprit, for left-handed bowlers, the 7-pin.

Because of the natural throwing motion, and the narrowed target area, it is easy to end up with a gutter ball when attempting this shot.

One technique is to move to the opposite side of the lane, and throw the ball across the lane, towards the pin.

When the single pin is against the gutter, but opposite the bowler's hand, the shot is less difficult. If you can hook the ball, do so, as this increases the size of the target area.

Adjacent Pin Spares

When you are left with two adjacent pins, and one is closer t o you than the other, you have a fairly easy spare, as well.

Aiming for the forward pin, on the opposite side of the rearward pin, will usually result in the front pin hitting the back pin, giving you the spare.

While you can also attempt to use the ball to hit both pins, by aiming the ball at the forward pin on the same side as the rearward pin, often this results in the ball ricocheting and bypassing the second pin, and missing the shot.

Making the Split

Splits are considerably more complex shots than other spare situations.

Baby splits, splits with small gaps between pins, are easier, but they still require skill and precision to hit the shot.

To pick up a 3-10 or 2-7 split, the best technique is to hit the leading pin on the side closest to the back pin. This allows the ball to hit both the front and back pins, by taking advantage of any minor ricochet.

With the 4-5 and 5-6 splits, the pins are equidistant from the bowler, and this shot can only be made by sending the ball between both pins, hitting them both at the same time.

Larger splits, like the 7-10 split, require not only skill, but also luck. The only hope of hitting this spare is to hit one pin, and have that pin fly across the lane and knock down the other one.

Free Betting Advice - Losing Runs, Profit and Bookmakers - Basics by Keith Driscoll

+Losing Runs+

This issue is what finishes off a lot of peoples betting banks, and forces them to give up, and is commonly due to the original stake being set too high.

You need to remember that the lesser the SR (Strike Rate), the longer the likely losing runs.

A 50% SR can create you a losing run of 8, although improbable, it is still statistically feasible. 35% can give you a losing run of around 18, getting down to 20% and a losing run of 30 isn't unknown. You ought to take this into account whilst setting your bank and stake. It's at all times best to be over cautious when starting off; you can always adjust a few months down the line.

+Bookmaker / Betting Exchanges+

Bookmakers have been about for decades, and with the betting exchanges available now the gambler has more choice than ever. Which one you utilize it up to yourself, but I use the betting exchanges about 98% of the time now.

One detail that folk fail to remember is that there is generally little difference between the two with reference to short-priced runners, as you do pay 2%-5% commission on the exchanges, and you need to take this into account. Any horses over 5/1 should be put on the betting exchanges without question. An old Draw Bias system of mine threw up a 50/1 SP winner, 110/1+ on the exchanges, and a 40/1 SP, at around 80/1 on the exchanges, that's 100% or more potential profit.

If you haven't bet on the betting exchanges, then you are throwing away probable profit, as the above illustration would give you the profit to cope with an additional losing run of 50, or at 10 stakes, you've made 500 more than the man next to you who used the bookmaker.

One other feature people ignore is the Tote, which has its uses in specific situations, especially short priced placed horses, as now and again they are disregarded in the betting, and go off a better price. There are a few other quirks, but I'm not giving all the secrets away for free!

+Long term Profits+

Your initial year might only see you betting banks in the developing stages. After which they ought to really take-off. Take a peak at the members system research on my forum to see the difference between the first year, and those following. In some cases you may perhaps only start with a �1 stake, and produce �100 that year, but if you're doing 10 systems, that's a prospective �1,000, and is likely �1,000 more than you've ever finished a year in profit previously.

You will furthermore have to endure losses, now and then wiping out your betting bank. This doesn't mean the system has failed, although a few do (usually though you'll find a system that fails to profit in a year gets back to winning ways the next year), but that your betting bank was too low, or stake too high. Re-adjust them, and start again, but do reserach first into what your max stake might be, potential losing runs, and adjust everything to manage the risk. I generally use a 3 strikes and the system is dumped rule. If it fails that many times, it is a dud.

Laying does have a tendency to throw up faster profits due to the higher quantity of daily qualifiers, but can suffer days that make you want to cry, but they do have the possibility to increase your betting bank by up to 100% a month. It is not unknown for laying banks to drop 80% though! In order to cover all angles, its best to run win and lay betting banks.

Ground Driving Training Technique

Starting a young horse under saddle requires a lot of groundwork to build the strong foundation for riding that you want. Ground driving is one of those steps of training that should be done before you ever step foot in the stirrup. If your horse has been introduced to gentling, sacking out, leading, yielding to pressure, and wearing a saddle, he is ready to ground drive.

You should accustom your horse to giving to rein pressure, first of all. Outfit your bridle with a plain snaffle bit (O-ring or full-cheek is preferred) that has a thick mouthpiece, as that will be most gentle on an inexperienced mouth. If you have no bitting harness or surcingle, a western saddle will work just fine. To teach the horse to give to rein pressure, you will tie his head around on one side at a time. The right rein should be completely loose, with enough drape in it as to not contact the bit at all when the horse turns to the left, and tied up to the right-side off-billet ring on the saddle. The left rein should be tied to the left stirrup at the exact length where there is contact on the bit if the horse's head is facing straight ahead, but where there is no rein pressure at all if he gives his head and turns to the left slightly. Then the horse can be turned loose in an arena or round pen to figure things out. You should stay nearby in case a rein comes untied or other mishap.

The horse may turn in circles, pull straight ahead, mouth the bit, or ignore it. You may need to adjust the rein tighter or looser. But the result you want is for the horse to turn his head to the left and find a release of pressure and learn to give to it. If he is constantly stiffening against the rein and not yielding to it, he needs more time. If he stands still with his head turned left, or turns in circles to the left, he is learning to yeild, and this is what you are looking for. Then switch sides so that the right rein is tied to the right stirrup, and the left rein is tied up loosely. This can be done in short sessions for several days, or until the horse seems comfortable and smart about giving to the rein pressure on each side. When the horse will turn his head towards the pull of one rein, he is ready to begin ground driving.

Long reins can be made from poly ropes with snaps at the ends, or even light-weight lunge lines if you don't have long driving reins. Run the lines through the appropriate rings on the surcingle, or else through the stirrups of your western saddle. This will help keep them up and away from the horse's front feet and prevent him from getting tangled up. You can pass the right side rein over the back of the saddle until you are ready to begin driving. Then, standing behind the horse and holding both reins, use voice commands and rein cues to guide him into a walk. Stay in an enclosed arena or round pen until your horse becomes familiar and responsive to the reins. You should practice all aspects of control with ground driving, such as moving forward, turning, stopping, and backing up.

The experience of ground driving will prepare your young horse for a rider and make him much more comfortable and controllable when you are actually in the saddle. It may not guarantee a smooth transition into riding, but he will have the knowledge of reining and stopping which may save you a lot of trouble once you step into the stirrups. Ground driving will help contribute to a great start for your young horse. by Kerrie Tishcher
