Discussion in 'Downhill & Freeride' started by S.K.C., Sep 5, 2012.
5th for Sammy at Worlds and a good, gradual step in the right direction for his continuing improvement.
If he really loved his son, he'd win races.
Now this is one happy man.
Congrats to all the fresh daddys out there!
No Id hit it comment yet?
The girl or the baby?
maybe Sam could ring one of those cowbells to cheer you on.
Great screengrab, Sam is the man.
If he really loved his jesus, he'd win races.
I will say his improving results will bring him confidence. He commented he isn't in full mental form this season so it might have been that more than phisical fitness that meant lower results.
Full mental form...translated..."I haven't slept 8 hours in a row since this lil one was born. Where am I?"
what happened to him, recovering from a bad crash or just recovering after his baby was born?
Hehe, a bit confusing but - I think Bizutch was writing a thought bubble caption for Sam in the picture.
Sam is fine and placed 5th at Worlds last weekend. This was just a screen cap of him in the pits with his boy during some down time.
Yeah - it really is a great pic and a side of Sam we don't really see that much.
...BTW - if you watch the vid link and FF to the 1:07 mark - as vitalMTB pointed out - Sam does a MACH 2 nose-wheelie into a berm and just shakes it off like "Whatever". LoL. Pretty insane.
"I had a pretty decent crash this morning".
Completely without brakes in front of his bike right over the berm.
I remember in 2006, Sam Hill used to eat babies before a race. And punch trees. The trees fell over.
Did he sheit diapers too? He's gonna need LOTS of them.
- Sam Hill can slam a revolving door.
If you are lucky enough to see him; you will experience 10 seconds of good fortune until you are brutally devoured by Sam's mind... Yes he can eat you with his mind because he is that awesome.
Great photo. If his real-life personality matches how he comes through in all the videos he'll be a fantastic dad.
Interested to see Sam wearing a Leatt. Is this new (post dad-hood insurance) or am I just not very observant?
Mums with Coke, not a good look.
He also got some sh1t from Tara Llanes, right?
Whatever dude. Was just saying, no need to get excited..
She's probably just holding it for Sam while he has a go on Bam anyway.
I think Waddells crash had some influence on him as well. I remember them being pretty good mates.
It's a team based event where the team consists of pros, youth, senior and female riders racing for points in their respective categories (girls started further down because the course is so physically demanding). The team with the most overall points wins.
Actually Caffeine and breast feeding can have bad results, irritable angry baby which means angry mother/parents. Speaking from experience here.
im sure shes talking to everyone that will listen..and for good reason.
Coolest world champs pic and its Hill holding a baby...when did ridemonkey get so girly?
The cool pics of the champs are on vital if anyone cares. Carry on watching babys or twilight or what ever it is you lot do.
you get angry when your infant is irritable?
Enough loss of sleep does funny things to people.

On June 24, Attorney General Herring filed a lawsuit against two Roanoke-based telemarketing companies, Adventis, Inc. and Skyline Metrics, LLC, and Roanoke resident Bryant Cass, for illegal robocalling and deceptive sales practices. The Complaint, filed in federal court in Roanoke, alleges that Mr. Cass and his companies made hundreds of thousands of unsolicited robocalls nationwide in violation of state and federal laws. The automated calls pitched car-selling services to people who listed their cars for sale on Craigslist, Autotrader.com, or similar sites. The suit was announced as part of "Operation Call it Quits," a coordinated federal and state law enforcement crackdown on robocallers and illegal telemarketers. Read more about the suit here
Attorney General Herring recently announced that his Predatory Lending Unit secured $9.29 million in debt relief for nearly 1,000 former ITT Tech students in Virginia as part of a 43-state multistate settlement. The settlement is with Student CU Connect CUSO, LLC, which offered loans to finance students' tuition at ITT Tech, the failed for-profit college. ITT filed bankruptcy in 2016 amid investigations by State Attorneys General and following action by the U.S. Department of Education to restrict ITT's access to federal student aid. Read more about these enforcement actions here
On June 11, Attorney General Herring's Antitrust Unit filed suit to block the proposed merger of telecom giants T-Mobile and Sprint. The Complaint alleges that the merger of two of the four largest national mobile network operators will drive up prices for mobile phone services and deprive consumers of the benefits of competition. In bringing the suit, it was determined that any theoretical benefits of the merger would be outweighed by the immediate harm to consumers, including a significant impact on low income customers, likely elimination of wireless retail jobs, and reduced innovation and competition. Read more about the suit to block the merger here...
Attorney General Herring's Antitrust Unit also filed a wide-ranging lawsuit against Teva Pharmaceuticals and 19 of the nation's largest generic drug manufacturers alleging a broad conspiracy to artificially inflate and manipulate prices, reduce competition and unreasonably restrain trade for more than 100 different generic drugs. The lawsuit also names 15 individual senior executive defendants at the heart of the conspiracy who were responsible for sales, marketing, pricing, and operations. The drugs at issue account for billions of dollars of sales in the United States, and the alleged schemes increased prescription drug prices for individuals, private insurers, and programs like Medicare and Medicaid. Review slides from the presentation here
Attorney General Herring joined a coalition of other state attorneys general opposing the Trump administration's efforts to eliminate rules protecting consumers from abusive payday and vehicle title loans. The states filed an official comment letter with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) opposing its proposed repeal of rules adopted in 2017 to protect consumers from excessive interest rates and other predatory practices that trap consumers in cycles of debt, while preserving access to less-risky types of short-term credit. Read more about the comment letter sent to the CFPB here...
Attorney General Herring's Consumer Protection Section serves as the central clearinghouse in Virginia for consumer complaints. In 2018, the Section received approximately 4,000 complaints. Here are the Top 10 complaint categories for 2018:
1. Auto Sales
2. Credit, Loans & Debt Collection
3. Internet Sales & Service
4. Home Improvement, Service & Repair
5. Auto Service & Repair
6. Direct Sales
8. Medical/Health Professions
9. Tax & Other Professional Services

The Attorney General's Consumer Protection Section obtained a permanent injunction and final judgment against Ricky Harmon Pettit for violating the Virginia Consumer Protection Act by providing unlicensed contractor work in consumers' homes in Central and Northern Virginia. The Complaint alleged that Pettit took money from consumers before performing renovation services and never completed the work. The Page County Circuit Court ordered Pettit to pay $20,336.39 for restitution to three consumers, $15,000 for civil penalties, and $3,500 to the Commonwealth for attorneys' fees and expenses. Read more about the judgment here . . .
Since 2014, the Attorney General's Consumer Protection Section has recovered more than $301 million in relief for consumers and payments from violators. These recoveries include restitution for consumers, debt relief for borrowers, and civil penalties and attorneys' fees for the Commonwealth.

If you run a small local company, you could have contemplated starting an affiliate marketing campaign to boost your presence and attract new customers. Many small businesses are beginning to look at it inside their business because they are finding it to become just about the most great ways to advertise their products and company. Marketing online is cost-efficient and easily implemented often causing fast response and business growth. Many are dreaming about easy, carefree days aware of fast money raking up within their banking accounts. The reality is, that while the World Wide Web offers a new marketplace to start out to generate money online, it is possible to responsibilities in creating success online. By the end as soon as i've you should be enlightened as to what is critical in order to have your Internet Business making money online. We're just into 2013 now and unfortunately for web-developers, IE8 usage remains noticeable. This can mostly be caused by every one of the people who carry on using Windows XP and which will not / cannot / don't wish to upgrade any higher. According to Statcounter's stats, during the last 3 months of 2012, worldwide using of IE8 was at 12.05%. Internet Explorer 9 (IE9) was at 17.68%. So it's fair to state there's a decent amount of people browsing the net who still use IE8. Online books or E-books are some of the training materials that this mentor usually supplies. It is in Adobe PDF format that includes the general training and you will contain it in a package. These materials are of help and you will prefer to print it in hard copy to help you be able to read it anytime you like. So if you are thinking "hey this sounds great but why would a specialist do this to me?" then pay attention. Take a minute and think of what is happening here. It's true, you get experience of the subscriber lists of the are getting experience of each others lists. This is huge for everybody involved. Each expert will promote the series so the number of people listening to the series and signing up for it grows dramatically. A lot of people that are relatively recent to Internet marketing usually get stuck somewhere in the process of figuring out the 'back end' technology. They're not sure what hosting is, or the best way to push the button. They have not a clue what an FTP client is. They are scared to death of fatty liver risk about forcing a squeeze page or website. New web marketers put quite a lot of time and energy into creating their web page, they have got not a clue that it requires the maximum amount of time and energy to showcase it. As long as you determine what is involved, and so are ready to perform work, you will see traffic, (and purchasers), rise in a quick space of time. What produces a good affiliate marketing plan? A good affiliate marketing plan is considerably more than that. A preferable strategy to address this matter is as simple as putting inside us the customer's shoe. Think of what we should would expect from any company whenever we buy their products. We would desire them to provide us with excellent customer service, not only before selecting the item and also from then on. It is the personal touch that can cause trust amongst people and thus we have to target that. We should care about our customers, let them have good service, meet their expectations and tell them they are vital that you our business. Your average cable Internet line is planning to run at around 1MB/s should you be lucky. This would equal 1GB of patient information taking approximately 10 HOURS to upload in your online backup. The smallest patient database that I have come across may be about 40GB, knowning that is at a workplace that simply started using digital imaging. With digital imaging their database will easily grow to 200GB+ very quickly. What you should know though is the fact that there are a lot of companies online that offer to offer you an internet processing account. Think of it as purchasing a set of two rubber shoes. There are plenty of those invoved with the market in fact it is your career to find the one which would suit you and the needs. This is the same task with locating a company who'd offer you an internet processing account.

To witness the natural and architectural treasure troves of south India, one of the most exciting and luxurious alternative is to travel on board Golden Chariot train. The modern refinement and traditional ways of hospitality has earned Golden Chariot various accolades including the recognition as one of the seven best luxury rail journeys in the world by Vanity Fair Magazine within 4 years of its inception.
A joint venture between Karnataka State Tourism and Development Corporation (KSTDC) and the Indian Railways, the Golden Chariot derives its name from the famous stone.
Golden Chariots in Hampi which is also one of the destinations covered by this Indian luxury train. 2 tastefully crafted itineraries of this luxury tourist train - namely Pride of the South and Splendor of the South - unravels the mystifying hues of southern region of India.
Whereas Pride of the South traverse the course of Karnataka by covering destinations like Bangalore, Kabini, Bandipur, Mysore, Hassan, Hampi and Badami, the Splendor of the South itinerary covers temple towns of Tamil Nadu and backwaters of Kerala along with destinations in Karnataka. The inside look of this luxury train is a fine juxtaposition of customary and contemporary motifs to retain the old world charm without compromising on the modern comforts.
Coaches of this deluxe train are suffused with quaint charm evident in the rich furnishings and antique furniture which is inspired from the cultural ethos of erstwhile south Indian dynasties. To maintain the royal élan of the train journey, all the coaches have been named after erstwhile princely states of the south namely Kadamba, Hoyasala, Rastrakota, Ganga, Chalukya, Bhahamani, Adilshahi, Sangama, Shathavashna, Yudukula and Vijayanagar.
There are a total of 26 twin bed cabins, 17 double bed cabins and 1 cabin for the physically challenged. All the cabins of Golden Chariot are outfitted with facilities like LCD television, air conditioning, Wi-Fi internet and a private bathroom to provide cozy comforts to the guests. Other facilities and services provided on board include two ornately designed restaurants, lounge bar, business center, gymnasium and a wellness spa. An array of gourmet delicacies are tastefully served in the lavish premises of the two in-house restaurants whose motifs characterize a mythical character and a Sanskrit word called Nala and Ruchi respectively. There is a lounge bar called 'Madira' where guests can unwind and interact with fellow travelers over a glass of wine.
This is not the end of the road for the Golden Chariot facilities. Guests can also partake in few recreational amenities housed within this luxury tourist train. A fully equipped gymnasium and an Ayurvedic spa 'Nirvana' allows guests to tab on their fitness routine even while vacationing. There is a business center for those guests who cannot make out time for holidays out of their hectic business schedule.
Nothing can beat the romanticism of the royal train tour on The Golden Chariot, India's first luxury train. The history of The Golden Chariot is as interesting and fascinating as its journey itself.
The coaches of the The Golden Chariot derive their names from the princely states of India and so does the motiff of decor. There are 4 twin bedded chambers in each coach and is soaked in the ethnic decor.
The The Golden Chariot features state-of-the-art amenities and en-suite facilities. Each guest carriage is a replica of an original private salon of erstwhile Maharajas, Nizams and Viceroys of India.

In this edition, we get an inside look at EllyNail by Eloise Sng, an experienced nailist from a top nail salon in town, who ventured out to run her own business from home!
Speciality: Nail Art involving geometric patterns, lines, laces and cartoon drawings. Less on abstract art.
How long have you been a Nailist and what do you love about it? I've been a nailist since 2012, about 4 years now. I love being a nailist because I feel really proud after I'm done with a customer and everything was done properly, from the basic manicure to art, professionally provided.
What is your speciality and what makes you different to other artists? I may not be the fastest nail technician around but I take pride in the quality of my nail art as well as basic care services provided. My specialty would be lace/geometric nail arts. Personally I enjoy drawing anime characters too but I wouldn't say that it's my specialty, but it's something that I can do too.
What does success in life mean to you? To me, success in life is when I am able to have a balanced work and personal time with family and friends. And also when I'm able to live independently and self-sufficiently with my own place by working full time in this field.
What dreams do you have, and how do you think Vanitee can help you achieve them? My dream, from the day I started learning, is to be able to work and live in Japan one as that's where the leading trends and all the fun stuff in the nail industry begins. I hope Vanitee will be able to help me get more exposure so I could expand my portfolio further and be able to save up enough to work on my dream.
Why do you use Vantiee app actively? My favourite features is the notification system whenever I input my own bookings, both customers, and my end will receive a notification, and I think that is really good. I do have customers giving feedback that it's good too. It also helps me keep tract electronically of all my appointments even though I do them manually offline too.
