World Championship 2007 final conclusion

The last day on Friday was too windy for the race comittee and soon after the postponed signal the racing for the final day was cancelled. Was not a nice day, colder with rain later during the day, not many sailor were keen to go out sailing, the wind was probably around 25 knots but the waves were building and most sailor would have had problem.
I have to say that my opinion about the championship is conditioned by the disappointing 2nd place, and for the 3rd time I raced a world championship in Medemblik I was 2nd. Said that, I didn't like it, i don't like the group system, to me seems the first 3 days of racing was a waste of time, infact having 8 point after 6 races is not much of a hard racing, same for Marcus. I think the seeding of the groups were ok but I strongly recommend to regroup after every day, in detail in my group I was racing together with Jan von der Bank that end up 3rd overall, Marcus was with Simon Mussel that end up 12, during the last world in Fremantle Simon was in front of Jan but every year things change and Jan was in better shape. This grouping problems didn't realy effect me or Marcus as we didin't have big problem to get in front of the other best sailor of our group, but for sure effected the point score of jan and other good sailor, Marcus never lost a race with the top seeds of his group, I lost one to Jan Von der Bank but was when Marcus was in my group and we race each other (and also Marcus got behind Jan). Anyway, a solution to the grouping problem also could be to do 3 races a day for 2 day only of qualifing (minimum 4 races to be sailed in the qualifing with 1 discard), 3 races shorter, as I said before that kind of racing is a bit of a waste, so just make them a bit shorter (like 45 minutes), i also thought 72 boats were too many in the gold, was difficoult starting and was just too crowded on the reaches and with a short course like the one we had on the light wind racing of thursday, the silver fleet had no problem, we could divide the fleet by 40% in gold and 60% in silver, or put a top number of 50-60 sailor in the gold.
I didn't like the wind, this is a fault of none but just bad luck, i was hoping for wind a bit more stable in the second race, and that was the only race that lasted over 1 hour. It was very bad luck that the last day there was no racing.
Marcus probably would have won anyway but we had a champioship in 4 days, we had 38% of the races in 1 day, and only in 50% of the races the first 2 in the overall result races against each other...
On the other hand was very nice to see 144 Contender in a World championship and like never before the overall skills was very good and the best since a long time...

Modern trends in classic men's fashion

Whilst common men's designs can never be changed, it's interesting to note that changes in men's fashion trends have produced certain common clothes back in fashion. The recognition of vintage clothing, specifically, has taken back a wide-variety of basic styles into men's closets, such as that of the dandy man. 'Dandy'is a term used to refer to men who dress yourself in a classic yet extravagant way, acting in a sophisticated method and placing value on appearance. This trend for nearly'over-the-top'common style for men is apparent from events like the'Tweed Run', wherever men and girls of all ages clothe themselves in obviously Victorian-style attire and take to the streets on vintage cycles - with many of the men wearing perfect mustaches! That is just one single of several samples of data displaying the revival of such variations. There are also numerous blogs on line which concentrate on gentlemanly style - such as'The Dandy Project'and'Dandyism'- as well as whole sites such as'The Art of Manliness'focused on giving articles on classic men's fashion and grooming.

In summary, although certain areas of basic men's style could be cut back as new styles, the simple outfits that they derive from will never slip out of fashion.
