Hore set for hefty ban
26 Nov 2012
New Zealand hooker Andrew Hore has been cited for an off-the-ball incident which subsequently hospitalised Wales lock Bradley Davies.
Hore hit Davies off the ball during the initial stages of last Saturday’s Test in Cardiff. The incident was missed by matchday officials, but Hore has now been cited and looks likely to receive a lengthy suspension.
The time and date of the hearing, before the IRB’s appointed independent judicial officer, have yet to be fixed.
All Blacks coach Steve Hansen expects the hooker to be sidelined for some time. Hansen did not say as much, but has already called for a replacement ahead of the coming Test against England.
Dane Coles is expected to start at Twickenham.

@wnbb-11049:
Yes, you can’t win the cup if your not in the final.
Umpires don’t have a choice in that case, but the appeal sounds wrong.
Reminds me of Peter Kirsten being run out for backing up, but again it’s poor sportsmanship to appeal.

That why I say no.11011 is far more valuable than 10000 or 11000 it is the binary no. for the perfect cube
Twenty-seven is a perfect cube, being 33 = 3 × 3 × 3. 27 is also 23 (see tetration). There are exactly 27 straight lines on a smooth cubic surface, which give a basis of the fundamental representation of the E6 Lie algebra. 27 is also a decagonal number.
27 has an aliquot sum of 13 and is the first composite member of the 13-aliquot tree with the aliquot sequence (27,13,1,0). Twenty-seven is the aliquot sum of the two odd discrete semiprimes 69 and 133.
273 = 19,683 and 1+9+6+8+3=27.
In base 10, it is the first composite number not evenly divisible by any of its digits. It is the radix (base) of the septemvigesimal positional numeral system.
27 is the only positive integer that is 3 times the sum of its digits.
In a prime reciprocal magic square of the multiples of 1/7, the magic constant is 27.
In the Collatz conjecture (aka the “3n + 1 conjecture”) a starting value of 27 requires 112 steps to reach 1, many more than any lower number.
The unique simple formally real Jordan algebra, the exceptional Jordan algebra of self-adjoint 3 by 3 matrices of quaternions, is 27-dimensional.[1]
In base 10, it is a Smith number and a Harshad number.
It is the twenty-eighth (and twenty-ninth) digit in ?. (3.141592653589793238462643383279…). If you start counting with 0 it is considered one of few Self-Locating strings in pi.
27 contains the decimal digits 2 and 7, and is the result of adding together the integers from 2 to 7 (2+3+4+5+6+7=27)
There are 27 sporadic groups, if the Tits group is included.

The planet Uranus has 27 moons
Electronics
The type 27 vacuum tube (valve), a triode introduced in 1927, was the first tube mass produced for commercial use to incorporate an indirectly heated cathode. This made it the first vacuum tube that could function as a detector in AC-powered radios. Prior to the introduction of the 27, home radios were powered by a set of three or more storage batteries with voltages of 3 volts to 135 volts.
In religion, philosophy and the occult

As humans we get far too carried away with numbers,letters,names,words etc etc and it later becomes fact upon which we based our existence.I don’t believe in that hokey pokey business.Watching the Washington redskins on sky now and it reminds me of the Americans ,saying that if the redskins lose in the Capitol a week before the elections than that means the sitting president will vacate the White House.Well they lost….but Obama is still in the White House.The bible is enough for me to live my life accordingly.

now 11064 wasn’t that Nelson’s famous number or was that 11164
either way numbers are numbers and blogs are blogs and fluke is fluke and coincidence is coincidence and relevance don’t really mean a thing when you break down the value of the perfect binary code of the universe or when God said to Abraham to kill him a son and Abe said man you must be putting me on, so God said No! and Abe said what? and God said you can do what you want Abe but next time you see me coming you better run, so Abe said where you want this killing done, and God said out on highway 61

Yeah the Egyptians knew all about the perfect binary codes of perfect cube mathematics and science that how they built the pyramids those perfectly constructed high energy source hydro nuclear reactors they had going before even Joshua or Abraham or Seth or Adam or Zeus came along

my pleasure
2 Flies
The flies are angry bits of life;
why are they so angry?
it seems they want more,
it seems almost as if they
are angry
that they are flies;
it is not my fault;
I sit in the room
with them
and they taunt me
with their agony;
it is as if they were
loose chunks of soul
left out of somewhere;
I try to read a paper
but they will not let me
be;
one seems to go in half-circles
high along the wall,
throwing a miserable sound
upon my head;
the other one, the smaller one
stays near and teases my hand,
saying nothing,
rising, dropping
crawling near;
what god puts these
lost things upon me?
other men suffer dictates of
empire, tragic love…
I suffer
insects…
I wave at the little one
which only seems to revive
his impulse to challenge:
he circles swifter,
nearer, even making
a fly-sound,
and one above
catching a sense of the new
whirling, he too, in excitement,
speeds his flight,
drops down suddenly
in a cuff of noise
and they join
in circling my hand,
strumming the base
of the lampshade
until some man-thing
in me
will take no more
unholiness
and I strike
with the rolled-up-paper -
missing! -
striking,
striking,
they break in discord,
some message lost between them,
and I get the big one
first, and he kicks on his back
flicking his legs
like an angry *****,
and I come down again
with my paper club
and he is a smear
of fly-ugliness;
the little one circles high
now, quiet and swift,
almost invisible;
he does not come near
my hand again;
he is tamed and
inaccessible; I leave
him be, he leaves me
be;
the paper, of course,
is ruined;
something has happened,
something has soiled my
day,
sometimes it does not
take man
or a woman,
only something alive;
I sit and watch
the small one;
we are woven together
in the air
and the living;
it is late
for both of us.
- Charles Bukowski
