Memorial Day weekend added to Santa Barbara's reputation as the premier ultimate town in the west. Thirty one teams competed in the Classic, including an unprecedented ten women's teams. The weather was mild, although Sunday felt like a Summer day in a Louisiana bayou. The three—day tournament format allowed for longer rests between games which increased the playing intensity. As it turned out, Santa Barbara dominated their own tournament by winning both men's and women's divisions over the Boulder Stains and Eugene Dark Star respectively.

This rarely takes more than a couple of balls as a gift, which are sitting unused because they keep minutes.

  • Fire Performance Art Permit
    Policy Grants Pass Department of Public Safety 4XX Fire Policy Manual Fire Performance Art Permit 4XX.1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE The purpose of this policy is to provide guidelines to advise fire performance venues and artists of safety considerations and practices consistent with fire and life safety codes and public assembly safety concerns. 4XX.2 POLICY This policy applies to all acts of fire performance art occurring within all areas in which Grants Pass Department of Public Safety has authority. Fire art refers to performances or demonstrations such as fire breathing, fire juggling, fire dancing, etc. Not included: pyrotechnics and flame effects (these are addressed in a different policy and require a separate permit). The business owner, event coordinator and the fire performer are responsible for all aspects of fire and life safety. Failure to possess a current permit and follow the minimum requirements set forth in this document may result in revocation of permit, future permits and/or issuing of citation(s). Fire performance artists shall: 1. Be at least 18 years of age. a. EXCEPTION: Performers age 16 to 18 may be allowed at the discretion of the Fire Marshal’s Office with written consent from a parent or legal guardian. They must be under the direct supervision of an adult fire performance troupe leader or instructor. 2. Have valid, state issued identification and Fire Performance Permit readily accessible at each performance. 3. Audience: It should be recognized that audiences, especially youthful ones, may not fully understand the dangers associated with fire performance art. Every effort should be made to emphasize the safety precautions and dangers of such activity.

  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

  • Butte Fire Staff Ride Preliminary Study
    Butte Fire Staff Ride Preliminary Study “During the deployment everyone was really scared. You didn’t know what to expect . Everybody knew it was pretty serious. It was definitely a life and death matter.” Mike Parsons, EMT Carson Hotshot Crew in 1985 on the Butte Fire Salmon-Challis National Forest Butte Fire Staff Ride Preliminary Study 1 “As soon as that wall of flame came up, that’s when we all snapped our shelters open. We got down on the ground. All we could hear was the roaring sound of a jet plane coming over— about ten feet about us. We started talking to each other. When the fire got really bad, we weren’t talking about the fire—nothing like that. We were talking about everything else—about what that guy did that time with him or her—or whatever. We changed the whole subject—to build morale. I think that helped keep us alive. We just didn’t want to think about that fire when it was going over us, when it was all around us, when it was everywhere. I’ve been firefighting for 20 years and that has been the most frightening experience I’ve ever had. I was in Vietnam for a year. But this beats it all.” Lawrence Tosa, Squad Boss Jemez Eagles Fire Crew in 1985 on the Butte Fire Contents A. Summary Background…..………………………………………………………….………….. 3 B.

    Volume 31, Ntimber 2 March/April, 1979 INTERNATIONAL JUGGLERS ASSOCIATION Photo by Karl-Heinz Ziethen MICHAEL MOSCHEN - A NOVELTY JUGGLER by Korl-Heinz Ziethen Michael Moschen, now 23 years old, has attracted the attention of some of the finest jugglers in America.

One of his specialties is fire juggling with three tor ches. His torch swinging act is spectacular and dangerous, unique in this art. Michael recently completed the filming of the fire-juggling scene in Milos Forman's production of Hair with Twyla Tharp, and has appeared as a solo juggler with the Louis Folco Dance Company. His television appearances included the Mike Douglas Show and BBS Special.
