Eddie Norman Vanderdoes IV (born October 13, 1994) is an American football nose tackle who is a free agent. He played college football at UCLA, where he was named first-team Freshman All-America.

College career
Vanderdoes originally signed a National Letter of Intent in February 2013 to play college football with Notre Dame. However, he asked to be released due to family reasons and academic concerns, but Fighting Irish coach Brian Kelly refused to release him. Vanderdoes wanted to play for UCLA and appealed his case, which resulted in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) National Letter of Intent Appeals Committee granting him immediate eligibility to play for the Bruins.

As a true freshman in 2013, Vanderdoes was named first-team Freshman All-America by Sporting News and the Football Writers' Association. He played in all 13 games, starting in seven, and made 40 tackles with two sacks. He even rushed for a touchdown on offense. As a sophomore in 2014, Vanderdoes was an honorable mention All-Pac-12 selection for the second straight year after recording 50 tackles, 5½ tackles for a loss, and three sacks. He also added another rushing touchdown. In the Bruins' season opener in 2015, he tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his knee and was ruled out for the season. He had a team-high 11 tackles and 3 for loss in the 34–16 win over Virginia. His last play was on offense in a goal-line play, when he lifted  Kenny Clark and collapsed after his fellow defender had scored a three-yard touchdown on the play. UCLA said Vanderdoes' knee "locked up on him" earlier in the game, and did not suffer the injury during the celebration.

Professional career

Oakland Raiders
Vanderdoes was drafted by the Oakland Raiders in the third round (88th overall) of the 2017 NFL Draft. He signed his rookie contract, a four-year deal worth $3.16 million, on July 5, 2017.

On September 1, 2018, Vanderdoes was placed on the physically unable to perform list to start the 2018 season after recovering from a torn ACL he suffered in the 2017 season finale. After returning from practice in October, Vanderdoes was ultimately not activated from the PUP list, officially ending his 2018 season.

Vanderdoes was waived/injured during final roster cuts on August 30, 2019, and reverted to the team's injured reserve list on September 1. He was waived from the injured reserve on October 1.

Houston Texans
On October 28, 2019, Vanderdoes was signed to the Houston Texans practice squad. He was promoted to the active roster on November 30, 2019. On December 1, Vanderdoes made his first appearance in an NFL game since 2017, in which the Texans played the New England Patriots. On December 21, Vanderdoes played 18 snaps during the Texans 23–20 win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

On July 28, 2020, Vanderdoes announced he was opting out of the 2020 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He was released after the season with a non-football injury designation on February 24, 2021.

San Francisco 49ers
On August 12, 2021, Vanderdoes signed one-year contract with the San Francisco 49ers, but was waived few days later.

Brennan was ripped awake by screams from the Listening post. Two soldiers out there were overpowered by VC, and now the ambush assault started with his feelings of terror shoved down by the need to act. Yesterday he was so bored he tried some cocaine to quell the feelings of never ending sameness.
Maybe 50 yrs later it would be an excursion on Bitcoin. After all the DJ was just going up 10-20 points a clip, with those pesky dips, and after all, all you had to do was BTFD ! BUT WHAT THE HELL WAS WRONG NOW ?
Still bored or now suspecting something more serious may be afoot ?
Does it feel the same as when someone yelled "INCOMING"? Fear on the loose?
as a "Deer in The Headlights".
News, Criminal News Network(CNN), etc ad nauseum, hiding those who want to harvest your organs or money as well as the jungle hid the VC.
Just like boredom led to carelessness for Brennan, it held true you knew as you counted your losses.
So what have you DONE now that 15% of your value is annhilated, not to be recovered?
For the last the last 28 years, after the Reagan Administration the investment arena has gotten more and more dangerous. Note that during the last two Administrations, the govt. agencies responsible for economic health of the USA have depended on the cosmetics of making things look good rather than fix the ills. And here we are. Hemmed in with few exits.
IMO less risk than you now face.
act together, and preserve your capital.

See, I'm not sure about that because quite a few of them seem to specialise it more towards the tastes of the few already doing it. This being one of them. A suggestion that mode-restricts the activity to open is going to have the opposite effect, it's going to remove the players who want to do powerplay and feel like they're supporting a faction in the metagame but who don't want to play with other people or can't play in open.
If you want suggestions to bring more people into Powerplay, you want to look at reasons people aren't doing it right now and focus on changing those.
I very much suspect "too much hauling" is a massive one. It's certainly one of the big reasons I'm not bothered with it. Like people will do hauling occasionally for a community goal but there they get paid in personal progress for the hauling and have a clear understanding of their effects within the goal. But if there was always a hauling community goal on then people would drop out of doing them after a couple of weeks.
Powerplay for most factions is a hauling community goal that never ends and you have to either wait or pay to skip the wait do it, getting no personal benefit for your trouble only vague merits buried in a menu somewhere that lead to a "wage" which is literal peanuts.
One of the biggest things it needs, if it's not going to be completely redone as an exclusive PvP mode, is a wider range of activities to generate PP progress, so that every major gameplay interaction (with the possible exception of exploration which is inherently in unclaimed space) has some effect as long as you do them in the right place for your faction.
Powerplay consists of low quality gameplay for low rewards via a UI and systems that hate players. Open at least would make each haul run actually worth paying attention to, and that groups would have to add more tactical roles.
Khan Tannhauser
The outcomes may align with their desires to an extent - that does not imply control.
Honestly, if you really want to see how it works you should join the community of your preferred Power for a few weeks and see by yourself if they are in control or not. You might be surprised. I think discussing facts here as if they were mere opinions is pointless.
.... and the players that already engage in Powerplay in Solo and Private Groups? They have been disregarded entirely in the proposal - as the proposal is designed to stop them being able to engage in Powerplay in those modes.
This is a valid point and it's probably the only downside of this proposal. Those players should have to come to Open, or help their Powers in other ways, like doing BGS (yes, BGS is a very important part of Powerplay).
Khan Tannhauser said:
Any group of players could set themselves up as another "controlling group" for a Power, therefore any contention that a group of players is "in control" is opinion rather than fact based.
What players should, or should not, do is up to them - this game lets us play the way we want and does not force us to play as others want us to. That proponents of this change consider that they should be able to force others to play the way that they want to is telling - and inconsistent with the way the game was made.
Reactions: Danieros
Then go for it- try it and see for yourself. New players gravitate towards these established groups because they are the ones doing all the organizing and know what they are doing. Plus, if it was that easy, where are these other groups? Its been five years, and yet we have the same groups doing it all.
Well, Powerplay works in a very rigid way, and that the current design via modes has allowed the game to stagnate. In layman's terms, hauling is too easy, leading to stability and lack of dynamism. Without being able to attack another power the feature grows static because nothing can be freed via turmoil. Its why I keep on saying NPCs need to be tougher or players do more.
Reactions: CMDR Foursyth
Yes, this has happened in the past and the group with most people usually ends up controlling the power, but I don't get how this is related to what I've said. Fact is every single Power is controlled by an organized group of people.
No one is forcing you to do Powerplay if you don't want to. It's an opt-in activity and it will keep being that way.

But as I said, at this stage I'm willing to give them the chance to there's correct. But it's not me they have to convince. After all, we all know what happened to the last lead developer who,thought this was a good idea...
Pretty much this.
People are still clinging on open only stuff and about what Sandro porposed.
But they somehow forget that Sandro simply disappeared from ED within months after his proposed changes to PP.
Which pretty much proves the stance FD have towards open only stuff...
The point is - PP as it is now, works for everyone that plays ED - no matter the mode or the skill they have
iF PP gets changed to whatever open only proposal - a certain number of the player base will be gated out.
And given the strong stance FD are showing towards diversity and inclusion - they seem to simply do not want to limit the diversity and/or exclude people out of various game features.
Northpin said:
But the proposal still stands- in the last statement from Will (I believe) FD stated they were satisfied with most of the proposal and were waiting for the time to do it. What that means is anyone's guess.
But note that FD have never actually directly stated all modes for Powerplay. BGS they did, but its never once been mentioned for Powerplay.
It does not work for everyone, thats the point. By having it across modes you negate most of its potential, while having superior examples of mode agnostic features already in the game.
Stuff does change- but it is possible to please everyone if you have the dev time to do so (like my proposal).
And again, Powerplay is never mentioned when FD talk about modes- ever. Why is that? Why the silence?
Darkfyre99
To really know all of Sandros suggestions need to be enacted for maximum impact: uncapped UM (to create crisis points), fort direction becoming universally inbound (making capitals busy) and limiting the BGS footprint going hand in hand with Open. Along with contested prep and expansion sites you create ad hoc arenas.
I'm quite familiar with them, and in fact agreed with all of them, except for Open Only. As I've said repeatedly, this game requires a client/server networking solution to get the effects you want. The problems with Powerplay aren't that everyone's playing in solo/PG. Its that the rules of Powerplay favor the current stalemate.
I believe that illusion that "everyone but us" is playing in Solo/PG is precisely that: an illusion. Between the separation of players in time and space, and the fact that peer-to-peer instancing is designed to give players a good experience, not maximizing players in an instance. That's why you only get opportunistic PvP when the stars align: unless you actively work at it, you'll only see a fraction of the players in a location.
Reactions: KillaALF
Being an organised group engaged in an activity does not mean that the group is in control - in the same way that a group of players supporting a Faction are engaged in activity but do not control the Faction.
It is a pan-modal opt-in activity, part of the base game that every player bought - with no requirement whatsoever to engage in PvP. The proposal seeks to change that for the benefit of a relatively small subset of the player-base.
The Open only possibility of Sandro's first investigative Flash Topic (May'18) was the most contentious (so much so that the other changes, that may well have improved the feature for all players were all but ignored) - and the second Flash Topic re-introduced the possibility of an Open play bonus for Powerplay (first mused about in Mar'16) as an apparent fall-back position from Open only. Sandro was also quite clear in his assertion that the investigation was just that, an investigation - not a fait accompli. That no determination as to the outcome of the investigation has been forthcoming in a bit over two years may be quite telling - especially as Will's post on the topic of the investigation itself mentioned that some of the proposals in the Flash Topic were being considered for implementation.
GloatingSwine
But make even less people want to do it.
Like we know that most people don't want to do PvP, because only a very small number actually do.
So a suggestion that is laser focused on increasing the number of PvP interactions is going to reduce engagement with powerplay. It will do the exact opposite of what it purports to want, it will reduce the numbers doing powerplay by not fixing any of the problems with it and introducing a new obstacle that we already know most players don't want to deal with.
Like we often hear in these threads that the opinions of people who don't do powerplay aren't welcome or relevant, but if you want to increase the number of people doing powerplay those are the opinions you should be looking for because that will tell you the reasons they aren't doing it now. And that tells you what changes you should be pushing for to get people to start doing it.
Changes which would make it even less appealing for the people who aren't doing it, and reduce the appeal for some that are, are not the way to get players in, they're the way to get more players out.
I'm quite familiar with them, and in fact agreed with all of them, except for Open Only.
Sandros proposal revolved around open being the linchpin. Without it, things like uncapped UM will just make Powerplay worse with more faceless grind.
As I've said repeatedly, this game requires a client/server networking solution to get the effects you want.
What I want is for something new. From what FD themselves have shown us Open is the only new gameplay offered. Everything else that has ever been added to powerplay has been to combat 5C and minor tweaks to overhead curves. If FD sit down and redo the lot in a way that suits modes then I'm for it- but so far what they have shown Open is the only way out.
The problems with Powerplay aren't that everyone's playing in solo/PG. Its that the rules of Powerplay favor the current stalemate.
Powerplay is in a stalemate for the reasons I told you- its too easy to defend and too hard to attack. Consolidation makes atatcking much harder, leading to large powers staying large.
I believe that illusion that "everyone but us" is playing in Solo/PG is precisely that: an illusion. Between the separation of players in time and space,
Some, certainly. But from my own experiences late in cycles I've tripped over other powers being naughty and having to fight my way out.
and the fact that peer-to-peer instancing is designed to give players a good experience, not maximizing players in an instance. That's why you only get opportunistic PvP when the stars align: unless you actively work at it, you'll only see a fraction of the players in a location.
Which is the reason for uncapped UM, for lower BGS footprints and inbound fortifying. Its funneling people together opportunistically- but, as the cycle goes on this frequency gets more and more because powers work to the deadline.
How do you know this?
How do you know this? All the indicators from polls and responses on the forum suggest the opposite.
Klearoflauge
Thank you for your perspective.
Just to note, I answered the question as regards the specific groups you identify in the question. This says nothing about players that might be attracted by a better functioning, better-experience powerplay - players who haven't done PP before, and returning powerplayers.
Portrait of a PPer - someone who enjoys most or all facets of the game and likes how PP draws them all together via larger tactical and strategic arcs, generated by multiplayer interaction. Some people (not you) in the thread seem to think it means "PvP griefer", which is bull.
And that's because of the rules, as I said. Change the rules, and you change the current situation.
And you live in France, where it just so happens that local prime time coincides with global peak players. And IIRC, this mostly happens around combat expansions, correct?
I very much understand that. But you're talking about going from at best one location a week that gets hit heavily after the fortification and undermining targets are met, to a minimum of eleven (assuming incoming fortification merits), plus whatever undermining, preparation, and expansion targets various Powers have... all of which now have open ended goals, rather than just one.
I simply don't see this scenario being interesting in the long term to the type of players who prefer to be on the killing side of asymmetrical PvP combat.
We know the developers have said that most people don't do PvP. And we can tell that few people do Powerplay because relatively small groups can have a large degree of influence on it.
Combining the two in their current states will mean that only people who like both will continue playing Powerplay, and mean that people who don't already will have more obstacles in front of them before they start, reducing incoming players.
Forums are inherently poor places to get an understanding of how the game is being played because they're a non-representative subset and very often dominated by a few prolific voices.
And the options are without a complete overhaul are very limited without making the current feature even worse.
When I was in Utopia fighting over Kenna I had people from the UK, America, Japan, Norway, Italy, Germany, Netherlands and Australia fighting in system wings.
Not all powers expand, fortify or prep at the same time. Powers also have deep rooted enemies who are always fighting too - its not a case of everyone fighting everyone equally. In an open context (with Sandros changes) the busiest places would be capitals, with uncapped UM sites being next.
Believe it or not people do like working against the odds- because hauling in such a situation makes you the most important person to protect, and draws on your own skills and ships.
And in one poll (from 7.7K votes) 50% wanted Open, with 25% wanting weighted and 25% wanting no change. Take a look at the first proposal and see the unique reactions too- I agree not everyone wants PvP, but at the same time trading 300 players for anywhere from 2K to 5K is a worthy trade to get the population Powerplay needs.
And this is conjecture. You have to do it to find out how popular it is.
And like I said, go read those responses. A lot of names who quit I recognise on there, but there are a massive amount of new faces too.
Reactions: Khan Tannhauser
Yea, but the ones that want to do PP from solo would not be able to do it. And suddenly it's no longer the game they payed for.
And the moment the Modes are no longer used to filter players out, but to deny people certain game features, then the things will take a really ugly turn with more and more request of open only this and open only that...
Preaching to the choir.
It's funny how the posts about this topic usually end up with people who are into PP and in most cases in favor of Open Only, explaining how PP works to people who's not involved in PP and in most cases against Open Only. Thanks Rubbernuke.

In this age, gay men are accepted in society, but there is still a stigma that follows this type of people. Gays have contributed a lot to society in fashion and they are quite intelligent in their own right. There are so many gay men who are proudly established in their chosen careers, and have bank accounts to show for. But, despite the social acceptance and stable place in the economy, there are still times when finding true love or simple hook ups need a little push and help.
Match is the largest gay dating site with over 13.5 million site visitors every month, and more than 1 million gay members with paid memberships. This very lively community has a stellar reputation for genuinely good gay men members, and the atmosphere in the site is invigorating. Many gay couples started their relationships in Match, and they end up in good matches for marriages.
Grindr is a large social networking gay app that even straight men and women, lesbians, and other members of the LGBTQ+ community visits. This app is where many gay men from different backgrounds meet, and is mostly the site to be when one is looking for instant hook up. Relationships are formed from this app, but an added cautiousness cannot hurt when genuine relationship is the ultimate goal.
Elite Singles is a website for gay men to find true love. The success rating for finding a professional partner is quit high. 80% of the members of this gay site are with higher education backgrounds, such as gay men who have bachelor's degree, master's degree, and doctorate. Though there are fewer visitors in this site compared to others, there are way more single gay men who find themselves in a relationship through this site than other gay sites.

State schools are better at preparing pupils for the 'new economy', Ucas chief warns private headteachers
State schools are better than private schools at preparing their pupils for jobs in the "new economy", the head of the university admissions service has said.
Mary Curnock Cook, chief executive of Ucas, said just 13 per cent of privately educated university entrants studied "new economy subjects" such as biotechnology, robotics, artificial intelligence, cinematics and creative art and design.
For the state sector, the figure was twice as high at 26 per cent, Ms Curnock Cook said in an address to the annual gathering of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference of leading independent school headteachers.
Private schools had been "a little bit slow on the uptake" in encouraging their pupils to choose these subjects, she said.
She added: "Not only are your students going to the same universities their parents went to, but they're studying the same subjects that their parents did.
"If I were to believe a recent report from one independent school head, your students and their parents often seem to think the only jobs worth shooting for are medicine, law, financial services and the media."
This year-on-year preference for traditional employment areas meant that big City firms and the "magic circle professions" were ending up with a workforce that was drawn from such a narrow pool it seemed to be "impeding their ability to be effective", she said.
Ms Curnock Cook added: "I worry about a sub-section of society which is sleepwalking through an identikit educational experience into an off-the-peg life which mirrors what generations of the affluent classes have aspired to."
She said the most popular degree choices for privately educated pupils included medicine, history, economics, English, law and geography.
"Perhaps…these predictable course choices to the same old universities are not always the right choices for all of your pupils," she said. "Maybe some of them should give serious thought to choosing to study something different somewhere else."
Instead of "worrying about social engineering", she said, private schools should "think about encouraging their students to be independent-minded and to develop a sense of future self that breaks the mould a bit."
During her speech, Ms Curnock Cook also said that a focus among universities on increasing their intakes of pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds "probably did not" threaten the prospects of privately-educated pupils because falling pupil numbers meant that "students with good A-levels will be in more demand than ever".
This meant students with good grades would be "lovebombed with offers" from universities, she added.

A Tesla owner in Northern California says his Model S caught fire not once - but twice - on the same day.
LOS GATOS, California -- A Tesla owner in California says his Model S caught fire not once, but twice, on the same day.
The owner was driving in Los Gatos Tuesday when he got a flat tire. His car was towed to a shop, where it burst into flames.
Firefighters put out the fire but noticed it could reignite. They waited six hours for the battery to cool down before towing it to a new lot, where it caught fire again.
The owner said he just got the car three months ago and has only driven 1,200 miles in it.
Tesla is aware of the incident. The company said it is investigating and is glad to hear that nobody was hurt.

Hawke's Bay Regional Council is calling on the public to help find who is responsible for a waste diesel discharge into the Awatoto Drain in Waitangi Road this week.
The dumping occurred either Monday or Tuesday this week.
HBRC External Relations Group Manager Liz Lambert says anyone who saw a vehicle or someone in the area acting suspiciously should ring the pollution hotline on 0800 108 838.
"Our Pollution Hotline is staffed 24/7 so there is always someone available to take your call," says Mrs Lambert.
She says HBRC is also keen to find the owner of the blue barrel, which was also dumped in the drain, along with others further upstream.

GET THE QUICK FACTS
Inside the Lungs
Inside the Lungs and Airways
How Lungs Function
To sustain life, the body must produce sufficient energy. Energy is produced by burning molecules in food, which is done by the process of oxidation (whereby food molecules are combined with oxygen). Oxidation involves carbon and hydrogen being combined with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water. The consumption of oxygen and the production of carbon dioxide are thus indispensable to life. It follows that the human body must have an organ system designed to eliminate carbon dioxide Exchanging Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide The primary function of the respiratory system is to take in oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide. Inhaled oxygen enters the lungs and reaches the alveoli. The layers of cells lining the alveoli... read more from the circulating blood and absorb oxygen from the atmosphere at a rate rapid enough for the body's needs, even during peak exercise. The respiratory system enables oxygen to enter the body and carbon dioxide to leave the body.
The respiratory system starts at the nose and mouth and continues through the airways and the lungs. Air enters the respiratory system through the nose and mouth and passes down the throat (pharynx) and through the voice box, or larynx. The entrance to the larynx is covered by a small flap of tissue (epiglottis) that automatically closes during swallowing, thus preventing food or drink from entering the airways.
The windpipe (trachea) is the largest airway. The trachea branches into two smaller airways: the left and right bronchi, which lead to the two lungs.
Each lung is divided into sections (lobes): three in the right lung and two in the left lung. The left lung is a little smaller than the right lung because it shares space in the left side of the chest with the heart.
The bronchi themselves branch many times into smaller airways, ending in the narrowest airways (bronchioles), which are as small as one half of a millimeter (or 2/100 of an inch) across. The airways resemble an upside-down tree, which is why this part of the respiratory system is often called the bronchial tree. Large airways are held open by semiflexible, fibrous connective tissue called cartilage. Smaller airways are supported by the lung tissue that surrounds and is attached to them. The walls of the smaller airways have a thin, circular layer of smooth muscle. The airway muscle can relax or contract, thus changing airway size.
Thousands of small air sacs (alveoli) are at the end of each bronchiole. Together, the millions of alveoli of the lungs form a surface of more than 100 square meters (1111 square feet). Within the alveolar walls is a dense network of tiny blood vessels called capillaries. The extremely thin barrier between air and capillaries allows oxygen to move from the alveoli into the blood and allows carbon dioxide to move from the blood in the capillaries into the air in the alveoli.
The pleura is a slippery membrane that covers the lungs as well as the inside of the chest wall. It allows the lungs to move smoothly during breathing and as the person moves. Normally, the two layers of the pleura have only a small amount of lubricating fluid between them. The two layers glide smoothly over each other as the lungs change size and shape.

Click here to go to the NPR story and then launch the media player, now streaming the entire album Old Ideas, which is being released on January 31.
Or scroll down if you want to listen to individual tracks.
But this spiritual master is a sensualist, too: His artistry is grounded in the careful examination of how the body and the soul interact. Old Ideas, his 12th studio album, was recorded after a triumphant world tour that had Cohen performing three-hour shows night after night — no mean feat for a man in his late 70s. It throbs with that life, its verses rife with zingers and painful confessions, and its music sounds more richly varied than anything Cohen has done in years.
Old Ideas contemplates mortality in the bitter light of failed romance; it fearlessly broaches emotional extremes while still dropping the wisdom of an elder who should know better.
The songs are both a disturbance and a comfort. I love it.


It was warm, dry, and sunny and the going was ideal for the 6th Round of the G H Motorcycles/Husqvarna/ACU Eastern Enduro Championship held at Butley Suffolk organised by the Woodbridge Motor Cycle Club last Sunday.
In the Championship Class Luke Parker (Norwich) won all three Special Tests with Will Hughes (Halstead) was 4th. As the day went on the going got softer and rutted making the two final laps more difficult to complete on time and it was the final lap that was a killer. Morland was first in but was a minute late receiving 60 penalty points so was Craig Roper (Sudbury) and Jamie Roper (Sudbury) riding in his first Championship since his injury nearly two years ago. Morland was still hopeful of a win but when Hughes came in also one minute late that meant he was in the lead then Parker appeared in the distance when was he was he late or on time and he was on time the only rider in the Class to be. Parker took the win with Hughes 2nd, Cole 3rd, Morland 4th and Jamie Roper 5th but it was not all bad news for Morland he still leads the Class on 97 points, Parker has 95 points and Hughes 83 points.
The Expert Class once again the battle between Jack Berry and James Barker (both Sudbury) was red hot with Barker just edging the Special Test by 2.58 seconds with Rob Blackman (Castle Colchester) 3rd, George Eustace (Sudbury) 4th and Adam Johnson (TBEC) 5th. All these five riders finished the day without penalty points so there were no change in the finishing positions. Barker now leads Berry by two points so it is everything to ride for in November at the last round.
Julian Harvey who has not ridden for a long time won the Expert Veteran Class from Michael Ridge (Stowmarket) with Gavin Hockey (Sudbury) 3rd and Paul Spurgeon (Woodbridge) 4th. Hockey was on for 2nd place and Spurgeon for 3rd but both were one minute late thus promoting Ridge to 2nd place.
Rob Aldridge (Diss) won the Clubman Class also the Class Title and will be promoted to the Expert Class for 2019. 15 year old Jake Roper (Sudbury) finished 2nd, George Wolfe (Sudbury) 3rd and 16 year old Joe Phillips (Sudbury) 4th. Phillips won the first Special Test but with a stumble in the second Test and one minute late at the end pushed him into 4th.
Jason Carsboult (Sudbury) was leading the Clubman Veteran Class after the Special Tests and the win was in his sight but a puncture in his rear tyre on the last lap slowed him down and was two minutes late at the finished and took 6th place. Kevin Gore (Norwich) won with Andy Peck (Sudbury) 2nd and Dean Curry (Sudbury) 3rd. The Class Title is wide open with Steve Youngs (Lowestoft) in the lead.
Paul Davis (Sudbury) who lives in The Netherlands came back to England this weekend to ride this round of the Clubman Super Veteran Class and duly won on the day from Andy Mason (Sudbury) with Steve Finch (Braintree) 3rd and Jez Moss (Sudbury) 4th. Mason on 102 points and Graham Mayes (Sudbury) 84 points are only the two riders that can win the Class Title.
Rob Aldridge Clubman Class winner also 2018 Clubman Class winner.
Kevin Gore Clubman Veteran Class winner.

New Orleans Saints fans are not letting go of their NFC Championship loss to the Rams which cost them a trip to the Super Bowl are boycotting the game and throwing an anti-Super Bowl parties instead.
According to USA Today, anyone in New Orleans who wants to watch the Super Bowl this Sunday (February 3) between the New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams will have a hard time finding one as many local bars are protesting the big game.
Instead they will re-air Super Bowl 44 from nine years ago when the Saints defeated the Indianapolis Colts, or show the Puppy Bowl instead or even stay closed.
Other restaurants and bars are also planning alternatives like, day-long happy hours, $1 beers, potlucks, and costume parties.
Apparently Saints fans have a reason to be upset over the botched call, but this is really taking it too far!
Spoiler alert....The Saints are gonna win Super Bowl 44!

Howard Lotsof
Howard Lotsof (March 1, 1943 – January 31, 2010) was an American scientific researcher who discovered and pioneered the use of ibogaine as an approach in Western medicine in the treatment of substance addictions. In 1962, at the age of 19, Lotsof was addicted to heroin and accidentally discovered the anti-addictive effects of ibogaine.[1] He later attended Fairleigh Dickinson University and then New York University, graduating with a degree in film in 1976.
Lotsof authored and co-authoring numerous research papers and was awarded a number of patents for the treatment of various chemical dependencies with ibogaine. The first of his patents, issued in 1985, was US Patent 4,499,096, Rapid Method for Interrupting the Narcotic Addiction Syndrome. The last patent in the series for the use of ibogaine to treat chemical dependence was US Patent 5,152,994, Rapid Method for Interrupting or Attenuating Poly-Drug Dependency Syndromes, awarded October 6, 1992. Lotsof was active in promoting medical usage and further research of ibogaine and had an interest in chemical dependence patient advocacy including authoring the Ibogaine Patients' Bill of Rights.
The systematic use of ibogaine was developed first by the Bwiti discipline from where it originated, by the Babongo, Mitsogo and Fang peoples of Gabon and Cameroon, while Western clinical treatment, mostly for the treatment of substance addictions, began was pioneered by Lotsof and others. In the 1980s, Lotsof convinced a Belgian company to manufacture Ibogaine in capsule form and performed successful trials in the Netherlands.[2] The use of ibogaine spread across Europe, and was brought to the Americas by Eric Taub in 1992, who had contacted Lotsof in 1989.[3] Lex Kogan later joined Taub and systematized the treatment of ibogaine with centers across the world, and further academic research and trials were conducted by Deborah Mash.[4] As the use of ibogaine spread, its administration has varied widely, with some groups administering it systematically with well developed methods and medical personnel, while many use or administer it haphazardly in a way that many believe is dangerous.
Lotsof was a member of the Board of Directors of the National Alliance of Methadone Advocates and President of the Dora Weiner Foundation. In March 2009, Lotsof was honored for his discovery of ibogaine's antiaddictive effects during the Sayulita, Mexico ibogaine Provider and Facilitator conference. Some fifty experts from around the world joined to present on ibogaine and associated subjects.
He died on January 31, 2010, aged 66, from liver cancer.
Lotsof was born in The Bronx, New York to Abnor and Lillian Lotsof. In 1964, he married Norma Alexander.

What does her calling me an islamophobe has to do with real islamophobia? She was hysteric I tell you.
After your rampant violence against women and muslims was combined into a fury known only to a white nationalist like you, convinced of the justifications of your actions, against this poor woman, she had every right to be hysterical. Society is fortunate that the threat of police action against you stalled your hand long enough for her to leave.
