OURAY – It has been a year of transition and growth for Ouray Ice Park, Inc., the volunteer organization that oversees the engine of Ouray's winter economy.
As last season's ice melted away and the Ice Park went into summer hibernation mode, the newly expanded OIPI board (which recently added five new board members to its existing three) set a long list of off-season goals focused primarily on staffing, development of a group use management plan and publicity/outreach efforts.
With winter around the corner, OIPI is closing in on many of these goals.
Board president Mike MacLeod presented a summary of OIPI's pre-season report to the Ouray City Council at its meeting last week.
Although the park won't open until December, OIPI plans to have its entire staff (full-time Ice Park Manager Kevin Koprek, plus one part-time and two full-time seasonal "ice farmers") on duty by late October, taking care of a "big, long laundry list of things we need to do to make sure the park is ready for the coming season, before we can even start making ice," MacLeod said.
Infrastructure and maintenance efforts top this list – making the park safer and more user-friendly by, for example, increasing the number of climbing anchors and improving walk-downs and hand lines into the Ice Park. Once the park opens, paths through the bottom of the gorge will also be continuously maintained throughout the winter season, MacLeod said, and ice farmers will make an effort to keep snow off the climbing routes to maintain ice quality and keep more of the vertical real estate, as it were, open for business.
OIPI staff will also install more "back tie" anchors in the bottom of the gorge, encouraging belayers to stand in safe places, away from falling ice.
In early November, the competition tower will be re-installed at the Ice Park. This 3.5 ton, 25-foot tall steel structure, painted powder blue to blend in with the ice (once winter sets in), was introduced last season, to create a challenging and crowd-pleasing venue for world-class competition.
The addition of the highly visible new climbing wall to last year's Ouray Ice Festival literally shifted the "wow factor" of its annual Elite Mixed Climbing Competition to a whole new level, popping competitors out of the Uncompahgre Gorge, where the contests had been traditionally held, and onto the artificial wall for all the world to see. Climbers and spectators loved it, and OIPI looks forward to using it again during the 19th Annual Ice Festival, set for Jan. 9-12, 2014.
And when will the Ice Park open?
"That will be a question we will get about 300,000 times in the coming weeks," MacLeod said.
As usual, OIPI's targeted opening date is in mid-December – probably either Dec. 13 or Dec. 19 depending on the condition of the ice. And if all goes according to plan, the Ice Park will conclude its season in late March.
That makes for a busy, jampacked 3.5-month season of ice climbing.
Heading into this season, OIPI has made a huge commitment to improve staffing the park, expanding its payroll budget to three times what it previously was.
"The biggest challenge we are facing is managing crowds," MacLeod explained. "It's an interesting paradox. The Ouray Ice Park is a great tourism destination in the winter. Our responsibility is to manage it, keep the park open and running properly."
But as the park has become more and more popular, issues of overcrowding have come to the forefront – especially when it comes to group use. While commercial guiding is tightly regulated within the park, there has never been a registration process for instructional, noncommercial groups (such as college climbing clubs) that often swamp the Ice Park in the winter season.
OIPI has realized that "we need a better presence in the park," to deal with the overcrowding issue, MacLeod said. "Every weekend in the Ouray Ice Park is a holiday; we need to put our staff in there, not just focused on making ice. In the park, their responsibility will be to go out and emphasize outreach and communication with park guests."
Staff will focus on safety issues inside the park, and will prioritize spending time with groups. "We really want to focus on developing a process for instructional, noncommercial groups," MacLeod said.
Toward that end, working with San Juan Mountain Guides during the off-season, OIPI has developed a simple process through which instructional groups will be asked to fill out a preregistration form prior to arriving at the park. The form will emphasize park rules, while providing OIPI an opportunity to "know who's coming," MacLeod said. OIPI staffers will then make an effort to contact the groups while they are in the park.
"There are still no limits, and OIPI is still not charging any fees," MacLeod stressed. But the noncommercial guides will have tags on their anchors to help OIPI staffers address density and crowding issues.
Also new this coming season will be a semi-permanent restroom facility in the South Park climbing area, built with grant money from the Access Fund and the American Alpine Club. "We are really excited about our restroom facility," MacLeod said, not only because it is much-needed in that part of the park, he explained, but also because of the relationship it signifies with these worldwide organizations, and the fact that OIPI has successfully reached out to outside sources to help with park infrastructure.
Contracting with True North Designworks in Telluride, OIPI has also focused a lot of time and energy this year on creating a new high-quality resource map of the Ouray Ice Park, which will be permanently attached to three kiosk structures that were installed at the park last fall. Paper copies of the map will be available for Ouray Ice Park guests.
On the promotional front, OIPI has focused on touting the Ouray Ice Park and tourism in Ouray through a stepped-up social media presence. "It is a huge promotional piece of our model," MacLeod said, adding that the Ouray Ice Park's Facebook page attracts brisk traffic in the range of 3,500 views per day.
A promotional 10-minute video aptly named "Ice" that was developed during the 2013 Ouray Ice Festival "continues to bring excellent exposure to the Ouray Ice Park as well," MacLeod said. The film spent the off-season on a national and international film festival tour and has received a number of awards. "Ice" will make its European premiere at the Fescinat Film Festival (a mountaineering and adventure film festival) in Madrid, Spain this fall.
Also new this year, OIPI has taken its show on the road, hitting target marketing areas outside of Ouray through a series of "Ouray Ice Park Road Show" events to build excitement about the coming season.
The first such event took place on Oct. 9 at the Bent Gate Mountaineering Store in the Denver metro area. Additional road shows are planned on Oct. 24 at the Black Diamond Retail Store in Salt Lake City and Two Rascals Brewing Company in Montrose on Dec. 18.
Above all, MacLeod emphasized the important partnership between OIPI and the City of Ouray, which owns and administers much of the land within the Ouray Ice Park.
"Two things are absolutely critical: to have a resource, and then we have to have access to that resource," MacLeod said. "And you people are the people that make that happen."

As the title speaks I'm looking to buy a 1st gen iphone rear housing WITH all the metal parts/rails and etc. I tried to do the mod myself but I've failed and now my back is screwed up.
So anyone with a used/new back with rails and everything let me know how much and if you can ship to Canada (cuz then I'd have to send it to my friend in the US and that's more hassles)

The good: The Panasonic VT60 produces the second-best picture quality of any TV we've ever reviewed, equal to or better than our in-house Pioneer Kuro reference and surpassed only by the ZT60; exceedingly deep black levels and excellent shadow detail; well-saturated colors and excellent skin tones; industry-leading sound quality; extensive features including touch-pad remote, voice control, and onboard camera.
The bad: Extremely expensive; worse bright-room picture than that of the Samsung F8500; somewhat humdrum design; camera is limited, and facial recognition is a gimmick.

The Best Picture Quality!
by GKolle on September 26, 2013
Pros: + Picture quality on the VT60 is absolutely stunning
+ No clouding, ghosting, spotlighting, etc. to worry about
+ Easy to set up
Cons: - Only 3 HDMI Ports

Previously I have owned a Samsung UN55F8000 55-Inch 1080p 240Hz 3D Ultra Slim Smart LED HDTV, LG INFINIA 47LE8500 47-Inch 1080p 240 Hz Full LED Slim LCD HDTV with ...
Summary: **Background**Edit:
Previously I have owned a Samsung UN55F8000 55-Inch 1080p 240Hz 3D Ultra Slim Smart LED HDTV, LG INFINIA 47LE8500 47-Inch 1080p 240 Hz Full LED Slim LCD HDTV with Internet Applications, and Samsung LN46A650 46-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV with Red Touch of Color. They were all very nice LCD/LED TVs but I was always upgrading for one reason or another. The VT60 is my first plasma. Having owned a small assortment of TVs I am happy to report the Panasonic VT60 trumps anything I have owned and frankly, anything I have ever seen up until this point. This TV produces the most amazing picture I have ever seen! My initial thrill has not worn off. This thing continues to impress me. The pq is absolutely phenomenal, even right out of the box!
**Hands-On Review**
TV came well packed and assembly of the stand was straightforward and incredibly simple. I do recommend you have a second person to help you. The VT60 is heavy.
Initial setup is a breeze and pretty standard. Panasonic walks you through and shows you the included features, emphasizing their different home screen options. Fun fact: there is a silly narrator that sounds like a robot. I weirdly enjoyed it, a bit of 80s/90s nostalgia. I setup mine to go straight to the last source (HDMI) as opposed to my home screen. Also, there is a goofy advertisement that pops up at times. You can however turn it off in the settings.
Panasonic includes two remotes. I am not a fan of the smaller remote. I find the touch track pad on it to be cumbersome. Not an issue for me though as I use the included standard size remote. My girlfriend however likes the track pad. To each their own. I'm sure it takes a little getting used to.
The apps work as you would expect. I haven't had a chance to check all of them out, but my time with Youtube and Netflix worked without a hitch.
The TV itself looks wonderful. The stand and full glass panel make the TV a true piece of art. The glass itself does pickup glare and reflects light. I have a 7 foot picture window that lets in a ton of light directly opposite of the VT60 but it is not unbearable. I can see the reflection of the window but it is not any worse than previous TVs I have owned. I would argue it is better than my old LG LE8500 which also had a full piece of glass. All this doesn't matter though as I do most of my watching at night.
As I previously mentioned, the picture quality on the VT60 is absolutely stunning! The hype for this set is true. The VT60 delivers on all cylinders. Inky blacks, clean whites, incredibly rich colors, jaw-dropping detail. I've been watching in the included THX Cinema modes and haven't felt the need to make any adjustments. I am no professional calibrator but I would like to make it clear this is the best picture I have ever seen. You can certainly adjust the picture to your personal preference and their is no shortage of access for professional calibration if you wish to do so.
As my first plasma, I am thoroughly impressed with the off angle viewing as well. Excellent blacks from any angle and the picture never seems to wash out or lose its integrity. There is certainly no clouding, ghosting, spotlighting, etc. to worry about. If I get unrealistically close to the screen, with my eyeball nearly touching, I can see a bit of dithering which is a function of the plasma technology. It is used to prevent color banding and create a smooth gradient. It is not distracting and I only see it when my eye nearly touches the screen. From far away I do not see it at all. It is not an issue but worth mentioning.
I can't comment on 3D quite yet as I haven't had a chance view any 3D content. I've spent most of my time with blu-rays and streaming HD. I will update my review when I get a chance to sit down with a 3D movie.
Overall, the Panasonic VT60 is absolutely astounding! I highly recommend the TV and am incredibly satisfied with my purchase.

Great Picture, Weak Internal Audio.

Pros: Outstanding Picture. Changed out of a Pioneer 55" Plasma. This picture is far superior.
Cons: No ability to turn off Internal Speakers. Whats up with that? Difficulty hooking up Home theater surround sound. Conflicting Sounds with internal speakers, even when trying to mute. remotes cause conflict. I hope PANASONIC is listening!

Summary: Great Picture quality, and easy to navigate. All of the Settings are very easy to get to, and use. Great internet internals for connections to Netflix, Amazon, and many others. Only Negative is the Sound issue. Seems foolish as to why they forgot to put in the Speaker shut off setting. I hope they fix this. A Television of this quality, would almost always be hooked up to an external sound source.

Summary: Ok, after spending a week researching and reading all the reviews, I really thought I was going to be impressed with the Panasonic Plasma VT-60. Obviously all the people on here aren't replacing a Pioneer Elite Kuro. Luckily the Kuro is still my flagship on my living room wall. I decided to upgrade by bedroom TV with the 55 inch VT60, but it is still not in the same league with the Kuro! Sorry CNET, you have been good, but the deep blacks still cant measure up to my 7 year old Elite! Unless this VT-60 needs some tuning that I dont know about? Abes of Main was great, got TV in less than a week to CA for a great price! Pinoneer Make a comback......!

Summary: The VT60 and ZT60 are not going to be available soon and dealers are doubling there prices. It will take a long time for the TV manufactures to produce a affordable TV that has a picture that comes close to the VT60 or ZT60 I am so happy I purchased the VT60 before Christmas. I got it for half of what there selling it for now.
Awesome tv... Got the 65" with zero regret.

Pros: All of my friends now think their tv sucks. Really amazing picture.
Cons: None, yet. You do have to do some picture calibrating, though. Has about 7 picture modes- why can't manufacturers have at least one of them properly calibrated????

Great TV, Terrible Customer support.

Pros: Picture is great as has been previouisly noted extensively.
Cons: Customer service is incredibly frustrating. Noticed right out of the box that this tv was missing the cable clamps that attach to the stand. Customer support giving the runaround on this for over 2 hours on the phone and still no clamps promised.
Summary: Would recommend the tv based on its superior picture but buyer beware if anything is missing from the box. Panasonic doesn't seem to stand behind its products at all.

US Airways in-flight magazine recently named Charlotte Athletics Director Judy Rose as one of the most dynamic women in her city. Rose, a former member of the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Committee who currently chairs the Division I Championships and Sport Management Cabinet, was recognized for her work in expanding athletics opportunities at Charlotte – by adding football (set to begin in 2013) and several women's sports (as yet undecided). In Part 2 of a two-part interview, Rose talks about the process of adding a high-profile sport at a rapidly growing institution. (See Part 1 here)
Charlotte AD Judy Rose.
You announced a little more than two years ago that Charlotte would add football in 2013. How is that going?
Judy Rose: I now spend 90 percent of my time on a sport we're not having for three more years, and I have been doing that for two years. The rest of my job doesn't go away, so I take a lot home with me.
When you start a program from scratch, it is so different from adding one where you already have facilities. We had nothing in place to start football. That's good and bad. It requires a lot more work, but in the same regard it gives you the opportunity to build something from the ground up.
We are building a stadium on campus and we will start construction in May 2011. We will play in 2013 competitively. We are an independent right now. We are hopeful hat down the road we will have a conference affiliation. But for the first two years we do have our schedule in place.
We are building a 15,300-seat stadium that is expandable to as much as 60,000. It's being designed so when I'm dead and gone, somebody else can expand it without tearing anything down. We plan to hire the head coach in April. We will begin that process publicly in January.
Is it difficult to come up with creative financing in the economic downturn?
Rose: The financing of the actual capital expense is on the backs of our students. They are paying a debt-service fee. We have never used debt service for our athletics facilities before at Charlotte. With the economy the way it is, it's about the only way we could do it.
The athletics department has been charged with raising $20 million to go toward football and the women's sports we will add. We'll do that through the selling of naming rights for our stadium and the field. With seat licensees and a little bit of naming, we've got almost $6 million already.
I'd like to have been sold out by now, but when you charge a minimum of $1,000 just for the right to buy a seat and then $2,500 to $5,000 for the seats themselves in this economy… A lot of the money will be raised from the naming rights, which will help offset the capital costs to build the facilities we need for women's sports.
Now that you are two years into it, what have you learned?
Rose: As much research as we have done over the last five years, and calling institutions and talking with folks, my mantra to my staff has been that we still don't know what we don't know. I don't think you can do enough homework. Every day I ask what we learned today as we move forward on this quest for football. I want to get it right. This is a huge step for our university and it cannot be just an athletics department initiative. It has to be a university initiative when you take on the task of starting a program as large as football.
We created logistics committees, and only two are chaired by athletics department personnel. The best advice I probably received from our staff visit to Old Dominion was that football will expose every weakness at your university. They are right. If we don't have transportation in place correctly for parking and tailgating and game day, that will be a major weakness. If people do not have a good experience with food service and concessions across campus on game day, then that's another weakness of this university.
We need to have everything available so we don't look like some rinky-dink institution, because we're not.
What women's sports will you add?
Rose: We're not saying for sure what we're going to add. (Field hockey and lacrosse) are certainly on the list that we are entertaining. We will survey from a Title IX perspective and see where the levels of interest are. I would consider swimming, and I wouldn't rule out competitive cheerleading – even though I know right now that there's been a ruling saying it doesn't meet Title IX (requirements, the way it's been conducted). But I wouldn't be surprised if things changed in that regard. We are looking at things that have large numbers, as you would imagine. If you add small sports, it's tougher to get there and make sure that you are in compliance. It is important to us to make sure that we are in compliance.
Many in the media criticize universities for athletics department budgets that are growing while academics seem to suffer. How do you answer that criticism?
Rose: At any university you've got to decide what the important elements of a university are. A university is not just made up of academics. We understand that is our primary mission, absolutely. But it's important to most of us on a university campus that the campus life be vibrant. We would see enrollment drop if it's not a vibrant campus life.
For us, football is going to help us make campus life more vibrant and give our students options. Instead of them leaving on the weekends to go watch football somewhere else, they can stay on campus and take pride in the fact that we have it here. The students want football. They voted to pay a fee for operating expenses and the debt service. But it's important for people to know that we don't receive any state funding for athletics. The money we have for intercollegiate athletics would not be going to academics. We raise our own dollars and the students pay a student athletics fee. But we don't receive an appropriation from the state for athletics. We aren't in debt here. We operate in the black. Across the country I know there are programs that have been getting quite a bit of appropriations from the state, and it's a little different story for some of those.
What are the three biggest issues facing the NCAA?
Rose: I would say student-athlete welfare. Are we going to pay our athletes? I am not a proponent of that. I think that issue will remain out there. Also, it seems that every time we turn around, everything seems to have litigation involved with it. It is so difficult to make the right decisions oftentimes because there is fear of litigation. The six BCS conferences breaking away is another concern for me. I think unification and a focus on unification within collegiate athletics is very important. It should be more inclusive. We should try not to make it professional sports. I know that has a lot to do with the BCS and how that gets figured out and whether it stays the way it is. If it doesn't, I don't think it's right the way it is right now, and it's not just because we're adding football. I think that March Madness is the largest financial funder for the NCAA, yet football somewhat runs the organization. I see that as problematic.
NN: What do you love about intercollegiate athletics?
JR: Two things: the young people and the spirit of competition.

Google Earth, the iPad and Roadfood
Mon, 06/28/10 6:32 PM
I have an iPad and I would really like to be able to open Google Earth and have it populated automatically with all the flags from roadfood. I just purchased the Insider so I can do this, but it doesn't SEEM possible... Is it possible and I am just not understanding the directions for downloading the Google Earth features onto my iPad?
Please help.

I haven't tested it out on the Ipad. Can you get it to work in Windows or the Mac? All you need to do is load the .kmz file in Google Earth for it to work.

Yes, I have used it on my work PC and my home Mac. As for the iPad, you can't "load" anything onto it, so I'm not sure how I would load the .kmz file into Google Earth...
Does anyone else have any experience getting this feature to work on an iPad? It sure would be cool if you did. Let me know.

I got this working using the following:
1. Download the .kmz file.
2. Go to Google Maps, and if you haven't yet, create a "My Maps" personal maps listing.
3. Create a new "My Map"
4. When creating the map, select "Import" and upload that KMZ file. (
Important: Mark the map as Unlisted instead of Public, since I'm rather sure the Roadfood.com people don't want that paid-access data listed out for the general public
5. On the iPad, go into layers and select "My Maps" and select the RoadFood map you just created.
That should work, although the data is online and not offline (if you don't have Wifi or 3G access on your iPad, you won't be able to view that layer).
(If the RoadFood powers object to this, I'll pull my Unlisted map as well)

Okay, I sorta got it to work... I'm not sure you can view this on the road unless you have the version with constant internet access. Even then, its not without flaws. Here's how I did it:
1. Load the .kmz file on your website.
2. From my PC, log into your Google account and click on Maps.
3. Enter the URL for the .kmz file in Google Maps and click Search Maps.
4. Save it to My Maps and you can see all the RoadFood flags now.
5. From the iPad, open the Google Earth app.
6. After it adjusts to your location, touch the Layers button.
7. Select My Maps and then My Maps Account.
8. Log into your Google account on your iPad.
9. Select My Account and then select View Data Stored with this Account (under Dashboard).
10. Under the uppermost, top menu, select More and then select Maps from the drop-down menu.
11. Select My Maps and then you should see the .kmz file listed underneath.
12. Select the .kmz file and the RoadFood markers should appear on a globe inside the sub-window. You can hide the left pane in order to see more of the map.
I tried viewing the map a couple of times, but I think it might be too much for the current version of the Google Earth iPad app. The reason I say this is because I can get all the way to the point of SEEING the markers for RoadFood stops, but when I try to click on one, the app shuts down and I have to start the process all over again from Steps 5-12. You could try restarting the iPad and try it again. Sometimes that refreshes the apps or something...
Guess we'll have to wait for the app to be a bit more robust before this can work really well... But, at least now we know how to view it on the iPad!

Are you ready to take the California Bar Exam? You will be if you follow these checklists. The following is a list of basic things to keep in mind when preparing for, and taking, the California Bar Exam:
A. Preparing for the Exam
- Build Your Confidence: You can pass this exam, if you take it seriously. You want to work extremely hard, and pass the exam the first time. Never take the bar exam as a "trial run." Sitting for the exam with the intent to take it again will become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
- Prepare Financially: The bar exam is expensive. The application and the costs of a preparation course may exceed $4,000. You cannot work while preparing for the bar exam. Visit Southwestern's Financial Aid office if you need help.
- Clear the Decks: Get your life in order. The two months that you are studying is not the time to be fixing your car, running errands, taking vacations, or starting new relationships. Tell your family and friends how important this exam is. You must explain that you will be unavailable for the two months before the bar exam.
- It's a Full-Time Job: From the time you graduate until you take the bar exam (approximately two months), you need to study 8 or more hours a day, 6 days a week. You cannot work while studying for the bar exam.
- Create a Schedule: Passing the bar exam requires that you learn and memorize a large number of rules, take many practice exams, and attend Bar Review classes. You need a plan for how you will get it all done. Schedule what you will do every day of each week. Stick to your schedule.
- Take a Bar Exam Preparation Course: Preparation courses are not optional; you need to take one to pass the bar exam. There are many good courses out there, with many different teaching styles. Pick one.
- Do Exactly What Your Bar Exam Preparation Course Tells You: You are paying a lot of money to have someone help you pass the exam. Those companies have an interest in seeing you pass. Do exactly what they tell you: follow their study plans. Attending lectures is not optional: 100% attendance is required.
- Learn Actively, Not Passively: You will not pass the bar exam if you spend all your time creating or memorizing outlines, flashcards, and notes. You should take literally 1000s of MBE practice questions, and write out many practice essay and performance test questions. Do not put off taking practice exams.
- Take Timed Practice Exams: Take at least some practice exams timed. You need a sense of what MBE questions, essays, and performance tests are like when under time pressure.
B. Some Practicalities
- Reserve a Hotel Room: Do not commute to the bar exam. Be certain to book a hotel room near the examination site (close enough to walk to from the hotel). Rooms fill up, so book early. As soon as you find out where you're taking your exam, make a reservation. This is not the time to penny-pinch. Avoid sharing rooms with others; you need a quiet place to unwind.
- Take Care of Yourself: Preparing for the bar exam is like running a marathon, not a sprint. You must prepare emotionally for the exam. You need to sleep. You need to eat. You need to exercise. Be sure to schedule time to do these things to avoid burning out.
- Tie-Up Loose Ends: Think ahead. If you have children, be certain that you have arranged child-care. If you are taking the exam using a laptop, ensure that your laptop is working properly. Ahead of time pack the supplies you will take with you (pens, pencils, high-lighters, aspirin, watch, etc.)
- Visit the Exam Site Before Exam Day: You do not want to be worrying about where you need to go the day of the exam. Visit where you are taking the exam long before exam day.
C. The Day of the Exam
- Wear Comfortable Clothes: The exam is not a fashion show. Wear your most comfortable clothes, and wear them in layers. The air conditioning may be blasting, or not working well. Be prepared.
- Eat Breakfast and Lunch: Be sure to eat breakfast and lunch the day of the exam. You do not want to eat something heavy, but this is a long day. You cannot go the full day without eating. Plan ahead.
- Arrive Early: Much of the key to passing the bar exam is managing stress. Be sure you arrive early. There may be 1000s of student taking the exam. You will not be permitted to take the exam if you arrive late.
- Leave Study Materials at the Hotel: You cannot cram for the bar exam. Doing so is a waste of time. Do not bother trying to learn anything new before the exam.
- Do Not Discuss the Exam: Never discuss the bar exam with others. You will be tempted; but don't do it. There is no benefit to discussing the exam. All talking about the exam does is increase stress.
- Don't Freak Out: You cannot do well on the exam if you panic. You must be thinking rationally. If you have taken a preparation course, and studied hard, you are ready to take this exam. You will do fine. Remaining calm is one of the keys to passing.

Shimano R540 SPD-SL Road Racing Pedals
Shimano R540 SPD-SL Road Racing Pedals feature wide pedal platform for foot-pedal stability, low maintenance sealed cartridge axle unit, large binding target for quick engagement, and adjustable cleat tension with indicators.
I received this product promptly and with all the parts. The only issue I had is technically, you are supposed to be able to take off your bikes old pedals and put these new ones. I couldn't do it. In the end, I had to take the bike and pedals to a bike shop and have them install it for me. The cleats were pretty easy to place on your shoes though.

After up-and-down summer, Gators have 18 commits for 2013Friday, August 31st, 2012
Florida was a recruiting monster in the spring, landing six commits in one day in February and another three the day of the spring game in April.
Some of those pledges remain intact, while others crumbled. In the past few months, the Gators have lost five commits and picked up seven others. That brings their 2013 class to 18 commitments.

Here's What Our Customers Are Saying
Elegant, lovely program
Something Blue Rectangle Programs I ordered 200 of these Something Blue programs for my upcoming wedding in Charcoal Damask and Classic Blue for the stripe. I received them in pristine condition and they are printed on somewhat glossy, thicker, high quality card stock. The printing was clear and crisp, from the few I've flipped through so far. Make sure you make a note of the color of your names in the upper right-hand corner bubble; I didn't realize that was customizable, and our names came in a subtle cranberry color (which I wouldn't have chosen necessarily, but it still looks nice). Also, I had envisioned the programs would be a little larger, but they are perfect keepsake size. Even with these tiny notes, I am thrilled with them and would highly recommend.
Something Blue Rectangle Programs I love this program! It turned out great in dark navy and coral!
so worth every penny
Something Blue Tea-length Programs Love the way it turned out! These invitation are simple, classy, and elegant all in one! It was easy to make and took less time then making it myself. Very reasonable, bc when taken to Staples for similar thing only $10 difference. Would definitely recommend this product to all future brides!
Love the Online Personalization
Something Blue Rectangle Programs I have ordered my save the dates, wedding invitations, and ceremony programs from Magnet Street. I love the ability to customize my product online and see the changes in real time. Any customization requests were quickly met and well exceeded my expectations. Their turnaround on getting these items printed and shipped was very quick and made my life a lot of easier. We have received so many compliments on our save the dates and wedding invitations about how great they look. Would definitely recommend Magnet Street to any bride.
So happy with finished program!
Something Blue Tea-length Programs I'm the MOB and had little confidence designing and ordering the wedding programs over the internet. I was able to accomplish the task, receive a sample, and place the order through the kind and supportive support staff at magnetStreet. When I had worries or wondered if I had done something right, it was great to talk to a real person who could reassure me and give me confidence. The finished programs are lovely. I like the weight of the paper and the front/back layout of the tea-length programs. I was able to personalize the colors and the content to our satisfaction! Thanks to all who helped!

The gloom is deepened for an Alabamian whose state rejected a black president, alienating itself further from American values by voting to keep racist language in its state Constitution and electing a chief justice of its Supreme Court who had previously disobeyed a federal court order and had been removed from office.
To be bound by nativity to a state I love but despair of is to feel a shame that surely God will forgive; but for a long time it will seep into everything we do or say, tainting even our prideful football victories.
Interpreting what lay beneath these disturbing events is a story for another day. No good will come from further moping about my state's voluntary apartheid. The nation from which it is estranged is facing a fiscal crisis that, left unresolved, will plunge the country back into recession.
Pressures of time and the natural inclination of an inert Congress will prevent huge tax increases and drastic cuts in government from going into effect Dec. 31. Congress will do what it is good at; it will postpone the hard decisions.
Feeling confident that a do-nothing Congress will do nothing, let's step back and try to divine the source of the fog of confusion and the obstruction in the governing process that has caused our sclerotic condition.
Remember that Barack Obama took office during a terrifying economic undertow that was undermining the nation's financial structure, sucking up and discarding jobs by the hundreds of thousands a week.
Emergency bipartisan measures shored up the financial industry, a stimulus bill was passed that in time helped stop the bleeding and the government stepped in to save the auto industry.
These were emergency measures, the metaphorical equivalent of the U.S. fire department being called to put out a five-alarm fire. The fire department did not take ownership of the property that was on fire.
But this was strange, unsettling behavior for government, unlike anything most citizens had ever seen the federal government do, which was exploited for political purposes. The cry of "socialism" was heard in the land.
In the summer of 2009, people were still frightened by the recession, saw the government do strange, expensive things it couldn't pay for and a vast new measure affecting health care was emerging.
There was a sense of dislocation, a sense that democratic capitalism had lost its mooring and was aimlessly adrift. In town hall meetings all summer long, Republican candidates colored these events in the most sinister hues.
Obama, meanwhile, perhaps believing that saving the banks and the stimulus program doing its work meant everything was going to be okay, concentrated on getting the health-care bill passed.
In the absence of symbolic presidential trips and fireside talks to reassure an anxious electorate, the political vacuum was filled by a hybrid Republican, the Tea Party, financed by special interests such as the billionaire Koch brothers.
These half-breed Republicans took office with a bizarre ideology that said hating one's own government is the highest good, and any action that raises revenue is tantamount to treason.
This fevered reasoning was symbolized by the billionaire Hungarian refugee, Thomas Peterffy, who spent millions on a personal TV ad that ran even on Election Day.
In his ad, he says, "I grew up in a socialist country and I have seen what that does to people. There is no hope, no freedom, no pride in achievement." He then goes on to insinuate a comparable "slippery slope" toward socialism in this country.
In time, with the auto industry thriving and independent, poor Mr. Pterffy's fears will subside, he will see the difference between a fire department and Soviet socialism, and he can spend his millions on more useful projects.
But how can the nation remove the clot in Congress, which is restricting the flow of legislation to spur the economy to faster growth?
One way would be for the president and the Democratic Party to mount a concerted charm campaign to convince Southern states such as my own that the party likes us and wants to be our friend.
That will take an attitudinal change for a national party that effectively has been estranged from the South for roughly 50 years, dating from the passage of civil rights legislation.
A competitive two-party system in the South would cut into the obstructionist Tea Party caucus, 63 percent of which is from the South.
While I do not expect armies of national Democrats to invade the South with smiles on their faces and arms outstretched, at least the election provides an opportunity to focus on just where the obstruction lies.
Drawing a red line of blame around the congressional villain ought to give voters a target in the midterm election of 2014.
Obama's re-election gives us a second chance at solving tough economic problems without confusing firefighting with subversion or Christian compassion with enslavement.
If the voters said anything, it was: Turn off the fog machine!

Insights: Culture
rom Pontiacs to Jaguars, cars say a lot about the man behind the wheel
Gerald Eskenazi
From the Print Edition:
The Cuba Issue, May/Jun 01
At the age of 62, I became a better person.
Oh, sure, I know some will say, "No you didn't -- you just drove a better car."
But listen to me. I bought a Jaguar, and it's made me different -- better, I daresay. Not only better in my eyes, but in those who view me -- or the trappings of me. What I would call the Eskenazi Exterior.
Perhaps if I'd been to the manor born, the impact would not have been so great, at least on me. But my other car is a Saturn -- the four- cylinder slowpoke, circa 1993. The Saturn? I like to call it my Brooklyn side, remembrance of roots past. But the more I drive the Jaguar, the farther I feel removed from Brooklyn when I drive the Saturn.
So here are my two worlds. And I'm telling you that the Jaguar confers on me a certain image that I actually feel comfortable wearing -- and that I believe others think is me.
My wife claims I'm wrong. And my youngest, the idealist, says I'm imagining things -- but people react differently to someone driving a Jaguar. A sort of bond, of common understanding of each person's position, develops between the observer and the object.
Indeed, I believe it would be true of anyone owning a snappy luxury car, especially one with some cachet. It is true, I think, for someone trying on the Piaget at Tourneau Corner and the salesperson hawking it; for the diner ordering a 1962 Pomerol as well as the sommelier writing down the bin number; for the buyer of a $100,000 municipal bond and the agent at Quick & Reilly.
It made me think that drivers of luxury cars in general are treated, well, nicer. I swear that drivers behind me now allow me into their lanes without a fight. Even a simple wave works every time. I daresay even New York City cabdrivers smile at me as I slip in front of them.
You have to understand that I never in my life had owned something that could be considered luxurious. But in my business -- I have been a sportswriter with The New York Times across six decades, beginning in 1959 -- I have had the opportunity to be among those who have, and sometimes to share in it -- Alfred Vanderbilt, Donald Trump, Leon Hess (who owned those immaculate gas stations as well as the Jets football team), Jack Kent Cooke (whose holdings included the Chrysler Building and the Washington Redskins), Roger Penske, Bob Tisch.
Thus, my stretch-limo moment gave me a shock of recognition during race week at the Indianapolis 500. This was sometime in the 1980s. I was at my motel waiting for a cab to take me to the Brickyard, the affectionate nickname for the track where the 500 would be raced in a few days. But my cab was late and I had to meet Chuck Yeager (yes, the Right Stuff guy), who was going to take me for a spin around the track. He was driving the pace car.

63 people recommend parking here 45 left comments
Especially for opening day it was great to not have to drive around hunting for parking rates that weren't gouging the public
Easy! I was a little uncertain the first time about how it would work but it worked exactly as outlined and it's a great deal! The attendant was very friendly and polite!
Tons if open spots close to entrance and exits and the staff is very helpful
Easy in/out
Quick and intercom attendant opened gate when I was ready to leave.
It was great to know I had a parking spot, at a very good price. I did read the height restrictions, and didn't think much about it until I pulled up in my truck! Thank goodness I had about 2 inches to spare. And if the attendant is gone the number to call is 1#, Not #1 like on the instructions. I would highly recommend ParkWhiz to anyone wanting to save time AND money.
This open air garage is attached to the Guaranty Bank Building. You will see the name "Guaranty Motor Bank" with neon signs off the main entrance on 18th St.
Vehicle height restriction: 80 inches
Managed by LAZ Parking (Denver). This location is a commercial parking garage.
Nearby destinations: Marquis Theater.
This commercial garage is located just north east of the Guaranty Bank Building. The parking structure is attached to the actual building and stands taller than the one across the street. There is an entrance on 18th St (one way heading NW) and also on Market St. (one way heading NE) but if you are typing into GPS use 1332 18th St.

Unity is back in fashion
Guild Activity
Settlements reached in Denver, Arizona ULP cases
Purple Communications agreed to settle NLRB unfair labor practice cases in Colorado and Arizona. The Company allegedly disciplined workers for union activity and removed union materials from break rooms and community event bulletin boards.
Detroit Strike History: A Table Still Broken?
Workers who walked-out at The Detroit News and The Detroit Free Press found themselves striking for 583 days. When Detroit newspaper management replaced 2,500 union members at these two mid-western dailies–—then owned by Gannett and Knight-Ridder respectively—not only was the quality of local journalism compromised. The six unions involved suffered labor's biggest media industry defeat in the last several decades.
Local is urged to back state sunshine measure
The Legislative/Political Committee recommends that the Local endorse Prop. 42, a state ballot measure that would shift the cost of sunshine-law compliance from the state to local government agencies.
No deal yet for ASL interpreters
Negotiators for Local 39521′s ASL Interpreters Unit and Purple Communications inched closer to a contract when they met in San Francisco on April 9, but are still separated by at least two very tough issues: health and safety, and wages.
An Apple a day keeps the taxes away
SEIU-United Services Worker West kicked off a series of demonstrations Tuesday to raise awareness about corporate profiteering at the detriment of tax payers. Members of the community were invited to participate in what SEIU called a "bogus $15 billion mail-in rebate" offer targeting Apple.
Apply for a Guild college scholarship
Now is the time for students to apply for a Pacific Media Workers Guild Scholarship. Our scholarship program is financed mainly by contributions from our Retiree Unit members into the Russ Cain Memorial Student Aid Fund.
Fresno Bee members and management move toward agreement
Guild negotiators moved closer to a tentative agreement on a three-year contract with the Fresno Bee on Wednesday. Management presented a comprehensive, final offer, but agreed to address several Guild concerns.

Writer Bob Andelman called me from his car during his assignment covering Harley-Davidson's planning meeting in the Florida Keys in January. "You won't believe where I am right now: blasting down the Ronald Reagan Turnpike with 120 bikers!" he yelled over the roar of the engines. "I've ever seen this much leather in one place … this is great!"
This group, volunteers from 47 states and 14 countries who plan Harley's Owner Group (HOG) rallies around the country, meets once a year — in part to learn about event planning and in part to come together as a team, to share the Harley experience. Whether that experience means the group ride from Fort Lauderdale to the Keys, or developing names for their planning teams (my favorite: the Fat Boys). A class on event liability is called "Flirtin' with Disaster," a simulated rally is "The Game," and seminar moderators are "navigators." In a word, it's a blast.
"Think about all the time these people put into their jobs," Harley COO Jim McCaslin told Bob later that week. "They're really amazing. They are very important to us."
What if we treated our employees more like volunteers? We can all take a cue from this fascinating company (just named Company of the Year by Forbes magazine) and have more fun in our jobs — and our meetings. In my magazine group, we start each meeting with good news — and make sure that when we get down to business, everyone's smiling. Why leave out icebreakers and teambuilding when the fun and connections they create are part of the reason people go to meetings?
On a similar note, we've added a few chuckles to our magazine, starting with our new back page, "Last Word." Each month, we'll take a different everyday meeting planning topic — from coffee to cruises — and just play a little.
Isn't that something we all need to do more of?

MORE BEER!: Our map our Nebraska breweries
* * *
Old Market's newest brewery Borgata Brewery and Distillery will open its doors to the public this week.
The brewery at 1116 Jackson St. will not be serving their full beer lineup just yet; they are still waiting for their federal license to be approved. But there will be a Borgata Pilsner on tap; they've been brewing it out in Kearney.
In the interim, co-owner Holly Mulkins said they'll be serving a few of their favorite things, including some other local craft beers. They will also have house red and white wines on tap.
Borgata will add food to its already hefty resume starting at the beginning of next year. Mulkins said the restaurant will partner with other local, independently owned restaurants and feature some of their signature dishes.
The brewery and distillery will have its ribbon-cutting Thursday at 3 p.m., complete with drink specials and hors d'oeuvres. Their grand opening will be Friday.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"These cards arrived before the estimated date of delivery and were secured along with the envelopes in shrink wrap. All of the invites and envelops were in perfect condition. I was impressed with the paper quality. These invites have the look and feel of being "green" as they appear to almost be from recycled stock (with out the random color strands you would find in other stock) My only complaint would be that I could not get these printed without the company's logo on the back. I felt having the logo and contact info was a bit cheap looking. Overall I love them and have already placed my 2nd order for another party I am throwing!"
"Perfect for a 60th wedding anniversary. Used a wedding photo on top and a current photo below. The designer gave advice on photo quality. The result was very professional. Happy to set the tone for our event with this invitation."
"Now that I have found wedding paper divas I will never use anyone else!! The customer service was fantastic, the product absolutely brilliant, the time it took to get my personalized order amazing!! Couldn't be happier with the wonderful invitations I received. Wedding paper divas I love you!!"
"Excellent customer service and quality product all the way. When I requested a custom back side to coordinate with the front of my invitation, instead of the standard white, I honestly didn't think that it could be done, let alone with out incurring any additional fees, but they made it happen free of charge and my invitations came out absolutely beautiful. Thank you!!"
"I ordered this invitation for my parents' anniversary party and could not be more pleased with it. It turned out fantastic, and we've already gotten quite a few compliments on them!"

I saw Slayer on Friday for the first time and it was mad, my all time favorite song is Dead Skin Mask and when they played it i went off. WHAT ABSOLUTE LEGENDS!!! Tommy couldn't sing but he still buzzed everyone up. Kerry, Dave and Jeff rocked out!
l saw the concert at festival hall and l was disappointed that they come on and where unable to perform as a band due to tommy not been able to sing.
Living in Australia does have its perks. World Painted Blood being released earlier here is one!
It's Slayer just the way I like it. If it was anything else, I would be very disappointed. The guitars, the pounding drums and crazy leads are all here. You ain't gonna be dissatisfied, that's for sure. It took a little longer to get into than previous records however, but it still rocks!
picked it up today, sounds awesome the only problem is I bought the version with dvd and I got 2 discs of the album, has this happened to anyone else?
I Bought It Here in Australia Friday, The Store I Was At Were Out Of Expanded Editions, So My Awsome Metal Father Picked Me Up Anoteher Copy Elsewhere. THIS ALBUM IS AMAZING - I'M GLAD I'VE ENDED UP WITH TWO COPY'S!
Seriously, Playing With Dolls Is one Of The Darkest Songs Slayer Have Realised To Date! This Album Almost Makes Up For You Guys Skipping Adelaide On Your Tour Here......... Almost
