Meet the Crete Contest Waiver.....

If you read the story below this one you can find out all the details about the contest in Eugene this weekend.

Here is the waiver that we will need you to have filled out in order to compete in the contest. Unfortunately you do have to be 18 years old or have an adult with you to sign the form. You can down load the form and pre fill it. You can also print out the form and get it notarized if your parents aren't gong to be able to make it to the contest.

There will be two classes Pro and Am. The entry for pro is $20 and the entry for Am is $10.

Registration will start at 10:00am and we hope to get the Am class going by 11:00am. So get there early. Besides if you get there early you will have a chance to ride the park before everything gets going.

Right click on the link to save it to your computer. If you can have the form pre-filled out that would be dialed. It would really be helpfull to us. Thanks and I can't wait to see you there.

Intermix/Myspace purchased by News Corp/Fox

Intermix/Myspace purchased by News Corp/Fox

News Corp. Owners of FOX News, also Bush supporters have purchased Intermix - and thus Myspace. What does that mean for Myspace? I am not sure. What does it mean for Myspacers that are not Bush supporters, make your own opinion. Does this mean a huge swing back to Friendster? It is hard to know. I just thought that people out there might want to know what's going on.-ben

"Myspace, News Corp says, could drive traffic to Fox Interactive Media.

And most importantly, Myspace has detailed logs of its users' preferences, online behavior and personal information.

That could help the company tailor what it does to the ever-more-discerning market which Mr Murdoch believes he has identified."

Yeah that is exactly what I signed up for.-ben
