About our Wrestling Jacket
The interest in medieval and Renaissance Western Martial Arts (WMAs) has grown dramatically over the last decade. Dozens of manuscripts and printed books survive from the period 1300- 1600, detailing the historical use of a wide variety of weapons, wielded in and out of armour, on foot and on horseback. Wrestling with and without weapons is a key component of these martial arts.
Medieval Wrestling was what is termed "jacket wrestling" in the martial arts community, meaning that the opponent's doublet or gambeson could be used to facilitate a number of holds, chokes or throws. Jacket wrestling is extremely taxing on the combatant's clothing, which is why modern martial arts often used specialized clothing such as a judo gi or sambo kurtka. These garments maintain the general form of traditional clothing, while having been specifically designed for durability. For several years our friends and customers in the WMA community have asked us if could design something a similar garment for medieval martial artists that would have basic shape and fit of a late medieval garment, while having the strength required for grappling. After a great deal of thought, and a little trial and error, we think we have done just that!
About our Premium monks cloth Wrestling Jacket
Monks cloth is a very sturdy but a softer, more flexible cotton fabric making our Premium Wrestling Jacket lighter weight, softer and more comfortable. It allows the jacket to move more smoothly, to be gripped more easily, and is less abrasive on both you and your partner as you wrestle. Monks cloth has a loose weave that will tighten when washed but loosen back out with wear. This fabric is commonly used in various eastern martial arts garments due to its breathe-ability and strength. Two layers thick, our Premium Wrestling Jacket provides both a certain amount of cushioning and close fit allowing for the best freedom of movement and comfort while participating in western martial arts.

Size Chart
Note: This chart is meant as a general reference and there is considerable leeway with garment because you can lace it to fit you exactly. Because this garment has a ' port-piece' (a period term for the front placket, also called a modesty panel in modern terms) you can lace in anywhere within the range given and you will still be completely covered. The nature of fit of a laced garment is very forgiving and will permit a good fit even if you are a bit smaller or larger than the given sizes. The smallest measurement indicates the size with the arming cotte laced to meet in the middle and the widest where the placket extend to, or the largest size it will lace to and still have the placket cover the front completely. It won't precisely lace up to meet in the middle on most people (unless you happen to be that exact size) but that is not necessary in order to fit correctly or look good. Please note that if you are on the cusp between sizes that you generally want to choose a smaller size because the garment is meant to be worn laced tightly in order to support the leg harness around the hip area. In other words, it more desirable that there be a space between the two front edges, where it laces, rather than have it be even a little loose. That way you can lace very tightly from your waist to your hips in order to keep the weight and pull of your leg harness exclusively on your lower body, which is how this garment is designed to be used. If your arming cotte is not laced very tightly around your waist and hips some of the weight of your leg harness can be distributed up to the shoulders, which greatly increases fatigue.

Critical Essays
Donna Burrell has labeled Jackson's method of analysis the "folklore of the modern suburb," noting that Jackson is "concerned with representing particular societies or community systems, not simply a few of the members. To some degree the system is the protagonist; many of the events seem included merely to illustrate the interactions of the elements, and even the rules of the interactions." As a result, Jackson's characters are usually flat rather than round, developed only as much as is necessary to establish their position in the social system of the story.
"The Lottery," Jackson's most famous story, has been anthologized to a degree that makes it one of the few stories that one can assume nearly every American student has read. Jackson's calm description of the lottery procedure—the reader is given more commonplace details about the workings of the lottery than about any of the characters—helps counterpoint the horror of the final ritual that the story leaves to the reader's imagination. As Barbara Allen puts it, "The point of 'The Lottery' is that blind adherence to traditional forms of behavior that have lost their original meanings and acquired no new, positive ones, can be destructive." A number of specific targets have been suggested for Jackson's story, including American society's obsession with finding scapegoats during the years of the Cold War and the House Un-American Activities Committee witch-hunts. The remarkable openness of the story, however, seems to make it an attack on all forms of destructive social behavior, and Jackson was particularly proud when the then-apartheid-based South African government banned the story. Almost all Jackson's tales make the same point in one way or another,...

Initial Qt 4.4 Release Candidate
The new version includes Webkit and Phonon as part of the cross-platform library for graphical user interfaces. Trolltech has asked developers to test the RC.
Trolltech provides the Qt library RC under a restricted license designed for testing. Trolltech is asking both commercial developers and the Open Source community to put the RC through intensive tests and return feedback via the Qt4 mailing list. The Qt 4.4 release notes have only been published in the form of a "Sneak Preview" website thus far.
The integration of the open source Webkit Web browser engine in Qt was triggered back in February by Lars Knoll, who Trolltech had appointed as chief product developer just previously . Webkit started life as a branch of the Khtml library. Lars Knoll is the founder of Khtml and still the library's maintainer today.
The first Qt 4.4 beta was released at the end of February. In February, Trolltech, which is based in Oslo, Norway, also changed the licensing of its GUI library from GPLv2 to v3. The download page is still slightly out of date, however, and still refers to GPLv2.
The Norwegian software developers lost their independence in January when they were acquired by cellphone manufacturer Nokia, to secure cross-platform developer know-how for its own devices. Nokia is already using Webkit for its devices. The dual license and Qt's Open Source basis will remain, Nokia promised after the takeover.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- It's doubtful that Poca and Scott can conjure up a game tonight that's any more compelling than their first two this season.
But then again, this one carries a berth into the state tournament, so that's sure to make it memorable enough.
The Dots (18-6) and Skyhawks (14-10) tangle at 7 tonight at Poca High School in a Class AA Region 4 co-final, with the winner moving on to the March 13-16 state tournament at the Charleston Civic Center.
Another Kanawha Valley team guns for a state tourney spot tonight, as Herbert Hoover (14-10) visits Tolsia (16-8) at 7 in the other Region 4 co-final.
Poca and Scott haven't ripped the nets for a lot of points in their two regular-season meetings, but they have left fans gasping for air.
In their first game at Poca on Jan. 11, the Dots successfully pulled off a length-of-the-floor pass from Matt Chandler to Noah Frampton with 1.5 seconds remaining, and Frampton hit a foul-line jumper at the buzzer for a 40-39 win.
Scott's Matt Dolan appeared to be the hero that night when he dropped in a jumper from the lane with 1.5 seconds remaining to put the Skyhawks up 39-38. But Frampton's buzzer-beater provided the fourth and final lead change in the last three minutes of the game.
Then on Feb. 19 in Madison, Poca held a 10-point second-half lead but watched it melt away as it went nearly 13 minutes without scoring a point, losing 39-35. A rebound goal by Cameron Cottrill with 0.5 seconds left in the game prevented the Dots from going scoreless for the final quarter and a half.

Intensive Care
The Diagnosis
Einstein's Dreams
Good Benito
Dance for Two
It was easier, I think now and then, to be a novelist or a poet in the days before cable television. Today it only takes ten minutes of flipping channels to find that whatever pet theory one had about the world up to that moment is badly shaken. It's one thing to think about America in the abstract and another to actually see half a dozen preachers preaching, talk shows on everything from politics to dieting, ceaselessly repeated commercials, forty-year-old sitcoms with canned laughter, cooking shows, wars and revolutions in progress, music videos, soaps, the shopping channels selling wigs, discount jewelry, burglary alarms, and Samurai steak knives. "We are coming to you live," the reporters remind us from a forest fire or an of-fice building where a disgruntled em-ployee has shot his boss and six other co-workers.
It is, of course, impossible to watch any of this for more than a few minutes since one can't help being curious about what is on the next channel. There is just too much of everything. We can either try to take it in stride, sitting back dumbfounded, or seek consolation in the latest literary theory which keeps guaranteeing that there is no world beyond language. "Don't confuse me with facts," people say jokingly, and there is some truth in that. What is called realism has always been based on a principle of selection, a way of cutting up that messy reality into manageable parts; television tries to do this while making the reality more of a mess.
Alan Lightman is like a man who, after gazing at a mirror in a dark cellar, takes it out into the living room, then out into the busy street. His first novel, Einstein's Dreams, owes a debt to the poetic and philosophical fiction of Borges and Calvino, in which verisimilitude and plausibility are not an issue and the quality of the imagination is what counts. His second novel, Good Benito, uses a fairly familiar strategy in contemporary fiction: it is an autobiography in the guise of a novel, concerned to suggest that the hero's own story is representative of a broader contemporary intellectual and moral predicament.
In comparison to these two, his most recent novel, The Diagnosis, is a far more ambitious undertaking, involving a larger cast of contemporary characters. After finishing this book, it may not seem strange at all when we see six phenomenally overweight women in miniskirts share their sex lives with us on TV, or a grinning congressman in a paid ad, wearing an obvious toupee, who promises, if elected, to promote family values and pass no gun legislation.
Lightman, who was born in Memphis in 1948, teaches physics and writing at MIT. Before bringing out Einstein's Dreams in 1993, he wrote and published essays on science, translating its complex theories into everyday examples. Einstein's Dreams purports to be a collection of dreams Albert Einstein had in the crucial weeks before he formulated his …

Beginning in January 2012, the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act of 2008 (MIPPA) requires an adjustment to Medicare payments for eligible professionals who aren't successful electronic prescribers. After hearing concerns from provider groups on the proposed rules, CMS made the following changes to the program:
- Amended language to state a qualified electronic prescribing system for the purpose of the Medicare eRx Incentive Program includes certified electronic health records (EHR) technology under the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs to prevent duplicative efforts.
- Added four significant hardship exemptions that will make professionals exempt from the 2012 payment adjustment:
- Eligible professionals who register to participate in either the Medicare or Medicaid EHR Incentive Program and adopt certified EHR technology
- Eligible professionals who are unable to electronically prescribe due to local, state, or federal law or regulation
- Eligible professionals who have limited prescribing activity; and
- Eligible professionals who have insufficient opportunities to report the e-prescribing measure due to limitations of the measure's denominator
- Extended the deadline for requesting significant hardship exemptions to November 8, 2011. Previously, providers needed to request an exemption by October 1, 2011.
- Allows providers to report significant hardship exemptions to the 2012 eRx payment adjustment via a Web-based tool for eligible professionals or via a mailed letter for group practices that are participating in the eRx group practice reporting option for 2011.
For additional information on the eRx program, please visit the CMS portal or the AAOMS Web site.

Hypomethylation of an Expanded FMR1 Allele Is Not Associated with a Global DNA Methylation Defect The American Journal of Human Genetics, Volume 65, Issue 5, 1 November 1999, Pages 1375-1386 Robert W. Burman, Phillip A. Yates, Lindsay D. Green, Peter B. Jacky, Mitchell S. Turker and Bradley W. Popovich Abstract Summary The vast majority of fragile-X full mutations are heavily methylated throughout the expanded CGG repeat and the surrounding CpG island. Hypermethylation initiates and/or stabilizes transcriptional inactivation of the FMR1 gene, which causes the fragile X–syndrome phenotype characterized, primarily, by mental retardation. The relation between repeat expansion and hypermethylation is not well understood nor is it absolute, as demonstrated by the identification of nonretarded males who carry hypomethylated full mutations. To better characterize the methylation pattern in a patient who carries a hypomethylated full mutation of ∼60–700 repeats, we have evaluated methylation with the McrBC endonuclease, which allows analysis of numerous sites in the FMR1 CpG island, including those located within the CGG repeat. We report that the expanded-repeat region is completely free of methylation in this full-mutation male. Significantly, this lack of methylation appears to be specific to the expanded FMR1 CGG-repeat region, because various linked and unlinked repetitive-element loci are methylated normally. This finding demonstrates that the lack of methylation in the expanded CGG-repeat region is not associated with a global defect in methylation of highly repeated DNA sequences. We also report that de novo methylation of the expanded CGG-repeat region does not occur when it is moved via microcell-mediated chromosome transfer into a de novo methylation-competent mouse embryonal carcinoma cell line.

The DNA Replication Program Is Altered at the FMR1 Locus in Fragile X Embryonic Stem Cells Molecular Cell, Volume 53, Issue 1, 9 January 2014, Pages 19-31 Jeannine Gerhardt, Mark J. Tomishima, Nikica Zaninovic, Dilek Colak, Zi Yan, Qiansheng Zhan, Zev Rosenwaks, Samie R. Jaffrey and Carl L. Schildkraut Summary Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is caused by a CGG repeat expansion in the FMR1 gene that appears to occur during oogenesis and during early embryogenesis. One model proposes that repeat instability depends on the replication fork direction through the repeats such that (CNG)n hairpin-like structures form, causing DNA polymerase to stall and slip. Examining DNA replication fork progression on single DNA molecules at the endogenous FMR1 locus revealed that replication forks stall at CGG repeats in human cells. Furthermore, replication profiles of FXS human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) compared to nonaffected hESCs showed that fork direction through the repeats is altered at the FMR1 locus in FXS hESCs, such that predominantly the CCG strand serves as the lagging-strand template. This is due to the absence of replication initiation that would typically occur upstream of FMR1, suggesting that altered replication origin usage combined with fork stalling promotes repeat instability during early embryonic development.

The Fragile-X Premutation: A Maturing Perspective The American Journal of Human Genetics, Volume 74, Issue 5, 1 May 2004, Pages 805-816 Paul J. Hagerman and Randi J. Hagerman Abstract Carriers of premutation alleles (55–200 CGG repeats) of the fragile-X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene are often regarded as being clinically uninvolved. However, it is now apparent that such individuals can present with one (or more) of three distinct clinical disorders: mild cognitive and/or behavioral deficits on the fragile-X spectrum; premature ovarian failure; and a newly described, neurodegenerative disorder of older adult carriers, fragile-X–associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS). Awareness of these clinical presentations is important for proper diagnosis and therapeutic intervention, not only among families with known cases of fragile-X syndrome but also more broadly for adults with tremor, gait ataxia, and parkinsonism who are seen in movement-disorders clinics.

Fragile X syndrome is caused by an expansion of a polymorphic CGG triplet repeat that results in silencing of FMR1 expression. This expansion triggers methylation of FMR1's CpG island, hypoacetylation of associated histones, and chromatin condensation, all characteristics of a transcriptionally inactive gene. Here, we show that there is a graded spectrum of histone H4 acetylation that is proportional to CGG repeat length and that correlates with responsiveness of the gene to DNA demethylation but not with chromatin condensation. We also identify alterations in patient cells of two recently identified histone H3 modifications: methylation of histone H3 at lysine 4 and methylation of histone H3 at lysine 9, which are marks for euchromatin and heterochromatin, respectively. In fragile X cells, there is a decrease in methylation of histone H3 at lysine 4 with a large increase in methylation at lysine 9, a change that is consistent with the model of FMR1's switch from euchromatin to heterochromatin in the disease state. The high level of histone H3 methylation at lysine 9 may account for the failure of H3 to be acetylated after treatment of fragile X cells with inhibitors of histone deacetylases, a treatment that fully restores acetylation to histone H4. Using 5-aza-2′-deoxycytidine, we show that DNA methylation is tightly coupled to the histone modifications associated with euchromatin but not to the heterochromatic mark of methylation of histone H3 at lysine 9, consistent with recent findings that this histone modification may direct DNA methylation. Despite the drug-induced accumulation of mRNA in patient cells to 35% of the wild-type level, FMR1 protein remained undetectable. The identification of intermediates in the heterochromatinization of FMR1 has enabled us to begin to dissect the epigenetics of silencing of a disease-related gene in its natural chromosomal context.

An inquiry into the Newton Police Department that led to the abrupt departure of Chief Matthew Cummings last month found examples of vulgar and unprofessional behavior at the command headquarters that oversees a city billed as one of the safest in the country.
Workers in the Newton police chief's office frequently used profanity, a police captain may have made sexual and offensive remarks to a female officer, and a clerk followed and secretly photographed his supervisor because he suspected overtime abuse, according to the investigative report that led to the removal of Cummings.
The 12-page report paints a picture of banter between certain police employees that veered from flippant to uncomfortable and provides a more detailed account of incidents than previously outlined by city officials. The report, provided to the Globe by both the city and the attorney for Cummings. also raises more questions about behavior in the Police Department.
In response to the report, Mayor Setti Warren said in an interview that Newton residents should continue to have confidence in their Police Department and that the city receives very few workplace complaints. But Newton officials disclosed this week that they have also launched another investigation stemming from the report, the third inquiry into the Police Department in the past year, concerning a complaint that a captain made inappropriate comments to a pregnant officer.
Until that investigation is complete in October, Warren said he will hold off on any judgment of whether there is widespread misbehavior in the law enforcement agency.
"I will evaluate where the department is at the conclusion of that investigation," Warren said. "I want to make sure I have the facts of that investigation, before I made a judgment around that question."
Cummings was placed on administrative leave after Ed Mitnick, a consultant hired by the city of Newton, found that the chief made "boorish, disrespectful, and insulting" remarks to three female employees, including his secretary, and that although colleagues said he was trying to be funny, his behavior was offensive.
He is accused of calling his secretary, Jeanne Sweeney Mooney, a "bitch" and telling her "I think you look like a whore," in 2010.
Timothy Burke, Cummings's attorney, questioned the report, which he said relied heavily on Mooney's version of events. Other employees in the Police Department told Mitnick they did not hear or recall the chief using those offensive words, said Burke, who has also been looking into the issue on his client's behalf.
Cummings was usually trying to be funny, employees noted, and he did not create a hostile work environment, Burke said. Instead, during his three-year tenure, the department was well run, and last year Newton was named the fifth safest city of its size in the United States, Burke said.
"I don't think the [political correctness] requirements of our society have gotten to the point that people can't have a sense of humor even in the workplace," Burke said in an interview earlier this week.
The Mitnick report is likely to play a large part in Cummings's dismissal hearing, which is scheduled for Oct. 10.
According to the report, Mooney and another female employee also swore in the police station. A police lieutenant said that they "used more profanity in the police station than the typical police officer," the report states.
The report notes that, according to Cummings, Mooney called him an "idiot" when he missed an appointment and the two of them "occasionally engaged in this type of friendly banter."
Mooney, who has worked for the city for nearly 30 years, has been on paid administrative leave since September 2011.
She is at the center of a criminal case relating to accusations that she took an envelope containing cash collected through various police permit fees and destroyed nearly $1,500 in checks and a schedule of the payments. She pleaded not guilty to larceny over $250 earlier this week in Framingham District Court and has argued that the chief and other police employees set her up.
In a demand letter to city officials in May, Mooney raised concerns about Cummings's past behavior, prompting the city to hire Mitnick.
Mitnick looked into the specific incidents Mooney described, but his report also highlighted other potential problems.
According to a footnote in Mitnick's report, a female officer accused Police Captain Christopher Marzilli of making "numerous inappropriate and sexual offensive comments to her while she was pregnant and, thus, Captain Marzilli's conduct may warrant a separate investigation." Continued...

Metallica: No More Euro Tours After 2012?
Metallica co-manager Cliff Burnstein says touring Europe may not be a profitable option for his band after next year.
Burnstein, who manages Metallica along with Peter Mensch, told the Wall Street Journal:
"Over the next few years the dollar will be stronger and the euro weaker. If that's the case I want to take advantage of that by playing more of these shows now, because they will be more profitable for us.
"Look, I'm not an economist, but I have a degree, so it helps. You have to ask yourself, what's the best time to be doing what, when and where. Prices in Europe are much higher and this isn't a sustainable situation.
"We're a US export the same way Coca-Cola is. We look for the best markets to go to – right now Indonesia is on my watch list."
Metallica will headline the Download festival in June 2012, where they'll play the Black Album in its entirety.

Just wanted to check in and thank everyone for their well wishes. I am alive and well... though I am now away from home for Thanksgiving and the internet connection here barely supports blogspot, much less WOW.
It is weird how WOW distorts time... well for me it does. When I was playing a lot and a friend would be away from the game for a week or week and a half, it seriously seemed like they were away for a month! Hopefully my guildies and friends in game haven't forgotten about me. :)
Happy turkey day everyone! Though this picture is a little disturbing with that big axe sitting on top of that poor tree...
Always changing probably.

Born in 1960, John Taylor co-founded the band Duran Duran with Nick Rhodes in the late 1970s. The group scored its first hit in 1981 and went on to become one of the top musical acts of the 1980s. He also played with the Power Station in the mid-1980s. In 1996, Taylor left Duran Duran, but rejoined the group in 2001. The band continues to tour and record. They released All You Need Is Now in 2011.
"I'm no virtuoso, but I am an honest and sincere person who takes performing very seriously."
Early Career
A co-founder of one of the top bands of 1980s, bassist John Taylor started out as an art student in Birmingham, England. He formed an experimental, punk-influenced group with friends Nicholas Bates (who renamed himself Nick Rhodes) and Stephen Duffy in 1978. Taylor and Rhodes later brought drummer Roger Taylor into the fold.
After a while, Duffy left to work on other projects, and John Taylor, Roger Taylor and Rhodes pressed on. They met vocalist Simon Le Bon through one of Le Bon's ex-girlfriends who worked at the Rum Runner, a Birmingham night club where their group performed. Guitarist Andy Taylor soon joined the band, which soon became internationally known as Duran Duran.
The band took their name from a character, "Dr. Durand Durand," in Roger Vadium's 1968 sci-fi film Barbarella, starring Jane Fonda. Their music contained futuristic elements, as well as dance and punk influences. "We have always strived to be apart from the mainstream, that's the punk ethic," Taylor told Music Week. The resulting sound was meant to be "night music"—edgy and interesting, yet vibrant enough to get people moving at a club. Their fashion, hairstyle and make-up choices were theatrical, reflecting a glam-rock aesthetic.
"Planet Earth," released in 1981, proved to be their first hit single in Britain. Following the album's release, Taylor and his bandmates traveled to the United States for their first American tour. Duran Duran sold more than 2.5 million copies.
Music Superstardom
With some help from MTV, Taylor and his bandmates became one of the top music acts of the 1980s. The videos for "Rio" and "Hungry Like the Wolf" got heavy airplay on the cable music channel, and the songs both became Top 20 hits in the United States in 1983. The album Rio (1982) went multiplatinum, and Duran Duran developed quite a following, especially among young listeners. Images of the tall, lanky, floppy-haired Taylor appeared often in teen magazines.
More success for Duran Duran followed with the release of Seven and the Ragged Tiger later in 1983. The album featured such smash singles as "New Moon on Monday" and "The Reflex." The band maintained a heavy tour schedule while continuing to make new music. They scored their first No. 1 hit in the United States with the theme song for the James Bond film A View to a Kill in 1985. Both Andy and Roger Taylor left the group in mid-1980s, but John Taylor, Nick Rhodes and Simon Le Bon continued on as Duran Duran.
By the mid-1990s, however, Duran Duran's enormous popularity had waned. Taylor was battling his own demons during this time.

Honors Students Present Independent Study Projects
Murray examined the existence of "food deserts" in cities such as Birmingham, defined as geographic areas that lack access to healthy foods. He compared the public policy decisions that have been made in Brazil to address the problem to what is being done in our own community. He is pursuing both a B.S. in Finance as well as a Master's in Public Health, and expects to graduate with both degrees in May 2012.
Stone examined costs and benefits of the Community Reinvestment Act, which requires that banks meet the banking needs of all parts of their service areas, including low and moderate income areas. He compared the ratings that Birmingham-based banks have received on their CRA efforts, and spent time with community investment managers at Regions Bank in Birmingham as part of his research. He expects to receive a B.S. in Economics at commencement exercises later this month.
Both John and Tucker will graduate "with honors in business" as a result of their participation in the School of Business Honors Program. Both are also participants in UAB's Global and Community Leadership honors program.
"John and Tucker had to think of their policy issues as leaders would think of them," said School of Business Honors Program director Stephen A. Yoder, J.D. "I expect that both of them will use their research on these projects in their future careers and education."
The School of Business Honors Program is a selective program focused on business leadership. Participants begin the program in their junior years with a course on principles and applications of leadership. They then take a strategic management course in which CEOs of public or other complex organizations discuss their organizations' strategies. Honors Program students devote their final semester in the program to their research projects.

You have no favorite boards.
Looks like we will have a nice spot with the Purple Reserved #911 again for this go-round to cap the '12 season and a very special and, for me at least, memorable team.
Directions are very very simple. If we are starting from the student entrance/southeast corner of the stadium. Walk down the Left field line of the baseball field. As you pass the left field fence the spot is very near, on your right. The spots are reserved out there, so find 2, see the pattern, and use basic deduction to find us! Papa Fitz will have a 247 banner up(multiple actually) signifying Tailgate. Honestly, if Curtain road would continue through the baseball field, I think the road would pass right through the spot.
We are usually solidly stocked for snacks/food. But as always, if you can bring something, small even, it is always welcomed.
I am getting it out of the way that I will have some extra beer, dont be bashful to request(of age out of respect of course).
Any questions just ask. As usual, it is really nice to put faces to the screen names, and ya never know, Sean or Jeff may just drop you something not yet on the boards (no pressure boys! haha). Seriously though, some good conversation to be had.
Going to the game but not sure when we can leave yet. I'll try to stop pre-game if we make it early enough, otherwise after the game. Hoping for no snow on the ridges for the drive up on Saturday. I was able to get a room for Saturday night at the HI Express on Priceline for a pretty good rate for a football weekend - bit surpised that rooms were available, and even more surprised through Priceline.
And the heater was very much appreciated. Thanks to Seltz, and Sean's dad, and all those that helped put this together. It was fun seeing everyone again. I am so glad that we made the decision to brave the weather, even though I wasn't feeling well, as it was a game I will always remember and treasure the memories. See you all at next year's tailgate. RWC, I hope these guys saved you a brownie.

- Even if you don't care that ViewSonic's VG2030wm lacks HD DVD or Blu-ray support, we can't give this LCD monitor a strong recommendation simply because there are too many better, more capable displays on the market for the same price. Its image quality is fine, but that's not enough.

When we saw the headline that Vans and Hermes were collaborating it was like Christmas morning all over again! Vans and Hermes are teaming up to create the ultimate high/ low collection… (oh wait…continue reading)
The Vans featured above were actually made by Vans for TV personality and design aficionado Robert Verdi, repurposed out of his personal Hermes scarf collection. Meaning either you can go scissor happy on your personal collection (which we don't advise and might make us cry) or you can oogle at these babies from afar *le sigh* — PSFK has a gallery of Verdi's entire collection HERE.
Sorry to get your hopes up but maybe, just maybe, these will inspire the two iconic brands to team up (a girl can dream can't she?!)
