Carlisle united overtook Wycombe at the top of league Two with an emphatic 5-0 demolition of Chester City. The Cumbrians were 4/6 before kick-off and Adam Murray set Carlisle on the way with a goal after 14 minutes. Goals from michael Bridges, Chris Lusmdon, Karl Hawley and Glenn Murray ensured Paul Simpsons side top the division on goal difference.
Wycombe Wanderers slipped up in north Wales, losing 2-0 at Wrexham. Dennis Lawrence and Sam williams netted the goals in the opening 15 minutes to secure victory at odds of 6/4.
Grimsby kept their place in the automatic promotion spots with a 1-0 win at Notts county. The Mariners were available at 9/5 after a run of four matches without victory but Michael Reddys goal five minutes before half-time was enough.
All three sides are level on 54 points with Wycombe Wanderers favourites to win the division at 11/4, Carlisle united at 11/2 and Grimsby Town at 11/2.
Northampton have been instilled as second favourites to win league Two outright at 3/1 after a 2-0 win over relegation strugglers Rushden took them to within one point of the top three. The Cobbers were 8/15 favourites and goals from david Hunt and Scott McGleish secured the points.
Leyton Orient lost to Torquay and a floodlight failure was not enough to get the match abandoned, with the match delayed for 40 minutes. The Seagulls, 15/8 before kick-off, scored through Martin Phillips and tony Bedeau and hung on to win as the other bottom three teams in the division all lost.
At the bottom of the table, Stockports five match unbeaten run ended as they were defeated 3-2 at home to Lincoln. The Imps, 17/10 before kick-off, found themselves 3-1 up before Liam Dickinsons goal for Stockport seven minutes from time set up a tense finale.
ClindianapolisyogaThe online Think Tank has spent considerable time figuring out ways to defend against Super storms, F-5 Tornados, and CAT V hurricanes. Human civilizations, just cannot take that level of pounding and since most everything is already built, there is not much we can do in the way of defending against a hurricane right?
The question is; can we defeat the hurricane or collapse the eye wall and raise the low pressure inside, thus destroying this demonic virtual heat engine? Well actually I have considered several models. One uses a submersible/floatable "ELF" Barge working with a Laser system, which towed by a nuclear submarine underwater and then is inflated and rises to the surface and shoots up and out and the laser across the tops of the wavelets, modifying the droplet size.
The hurricane then cannot block the trade winds or normal surface winds. For shoreline defense, it would rest on a rail underwater and would shoot at the waves preceding the hurricane, until the barge was at critical buoyancy due to waves and then lower until the eye came over and raise again. The system would simply be set underwater and wait until needed.
Sometimes there is sufficient economic interests that do well in human civilizations in rebuilding after disasters who may not be able to get in on the preventative technologies, but rather enjoy government re-building contracts, does that make sense. No judgment here of course, humans are humans, but realize that much of this technology while needed is not wanted. Smile, not good or bad, it just is the reality of things in the present period. May as well laugh at it all to prevent the tears? So, for that reason, we have not taken these concepts very far.
Actually, the device could be also used to create a "Wave Weapon" (which of course is of interest to many) by increasing Typhoons and storm surges or even creating them for offensive needs of the military or as a defensive system against hostile humans. It perhaps could also be designed to make a series of three similar systems, which could create "Rogue Waves" to sink ships or combat a storm. With a storm, although this adds power to the storm it would temporarily remove the storm surge and unravel the tightness of the hurricanes Eye, setting it into a transitional phase as lowering the category temporarily while the eye-wall forms.
Since Lasers could superheat the water with reflective sheeting or on the surface, it could be done from the air too via an Airborne Laser Aircraft;

A device could also be dropped into the eye and be self-powered to stay in the eye floating on the surface doing the same thing while spinning around bobbing up and down. There have been many ideas floated, such as polymer ball absorption, putting oil on the water to prevent evaporation, etc.
Knocking down a storm is not impossible, it is just the size of the response is a huge undertaking once the hurricane gets to strength, that is a lot of energy, but so are the trade winds and the volume they move too. Anyway, too many thoughts for such a simple article, but it might be worthy of consideration, deleting a hurricane makes sense, but an island city facing a Tsunami from a Mid atlantic Ridge Event or undersea slide, or large Earthquake, is a much different issue. You still can get your 30-foot high intrusion of the ocean and you cannot stop that, using anything similar in nature.
A large city with a shoreline like miami or Long island NY, well, you would of course wish to have barriers for that or a giant "V" shaped break water piece of land from the direction you expected the Tsunami and then figure out barriers for the flooding. But an island in the middle of the Pacific who knows where it could come from surrounded by the Ring of fire. In the atlantic, the Mid atlantic Ridge would be the most plausible thus, you could suspect where it would come from. Long island and atlantic Coastline is in jeopardy of course.
What if a nuclear power decided it was angry at the US for instance? And we do not guard those areas like we guard our own coastline, nor has anyone attempted to alleviate stress thru relieving geo-thermal heat or causing minor events to prevent a future major event. There have been Discovery channel stories on the problems. A series of "V" shaped barriers would work good and also provide sea life refuge and natural habitats for abundance and food supply. Well have fun with all these thoughts and let us know what you think.

Happy Yoga MusicIn response to the Group Writing Project at ProBlogger, here is my top 5 list for headphones to use for brainwave entrainment products and meditation audios.
For noise canceling, so you can do your meditations on the subway, in airplanes, cafeteria or starbucks, my number one pick is the Sennheiser PXC 250 Noise Canceling Headphones. They aren't cheap, but that's the price you pay for good noise canceling headphones.
If the price is too steep, or you don't have kids, or any reason to travel, well... you don't need noise cancelling headphones, do you? Try Sennheiser MX55V Stereo Headphones w/ Twist-to-fit system & Volume Control. Adjustable for comfort. And not quite as pricey. A little Dainty, or lightweight, whatever fits your personality.
If you really like to hear the thud-thud-thud of the low-end frequencies, then you'll love these bassmonster headphones: Sennheiser HD-212 Headphones. Rich and deep tones wrap your brain in a warm blanket of bottom frequencies. Beware, it can be a little distracting... or entrancing, depending on your preference to bass.
Gotta have wireless for yoga in the Garden? The price point on the RS100 Headphone by Sennheisermakes it worth trying. Gives you freedom to roam and dance and move, but not likely to stay on your head during "dog facing forward".
However, surround sound is a very attractive feature, especially with brainwave entrainment products. (those dissociative trances just come upon ya so much quicker when you can lose yourself in the sound. Loop de loop anyone?) Which is why I like the Sennheiser RS 130 Wireless Surround Sound Headphones even better. But they ain't cheap.
I guess you've noticed that all my top picks are Sennheiser. That's because the quality is never compromised. However, beware, if you're buying these products on ebay, Some overseas companies substitute substandard products packaged as Sennheiser products. There are buying guides available on ebay if you choose to shop for them there.
Always keep your headphones and all components away from high heat sources, and don't tug or pull on the wires. Otherwise, you'll wind up with a very expensive paperweight, or worse, a paperweight with static.
