The creation of gefilte fish—"gefullte" in German means stuffed—can be traced to Franco-German kitchens in the late 14th century. Serving deboned and ground fish, stuffed into fish skin and then baked, made it possible to place fish on the Shabbat menu. Removing the bones ahead of time eliminated the problem of working on the Sabbath. Any available fish that had fins and scales could be used, but when carp was introduced to Western Europe from China in the 15th century, Jews readily adapted this fish to their cuisine. Raised easily in freshwater tanks, carp was plentiful and very inexpensive. Though popular among all classes, carp became associated with the poor. In time, flavorful, readily available, and easily deboned carp became the Jewish community's fish of choice for making gefilte fish.
We don't know when cooks shifted from baked or poached ground fish stuffed in skin to oval balls of ground fish poached in a seasoned fish stock, but the reason for these modifications likely had to do with ease of preparation. And although the stuffing technique has long been abandoned, the name, gefilte fish, lives on.
Shortly after World War II, gefilte fish was processed in jars and sold in supermarkets. Manischewitz opened its first factory in 1954 for this purpose. Many cooks resisted this new product and continued to make their fish balls from scratch. Some cooks preferred to use pre-ground, frozen fish to make loaves of gefilte fish; others cooked fresh carrots and onions with the fish jelly from the jar to mimic homemade.
One gefilte fish tradition has survived the centuries: seasoning preference. Jews from Western Europe, Southeastern Poland, and Western Ukraine tend to prefer a sweetened gefilte fish, whereas for most Lithuanian and Russian Jews, pepper is the seasoning of choice.
However, and whenever, you choose to enjoy this iconic dish—baked, poached, or packaged—know that you are keeping alive a centuries-old tradition.
Eat in good health! Traditional Gefilte Fish
When making traditional gefilte fish, if you don't like the jelled broth, you can skip using the bones and skin; it is the collagen in the bones that jells the liquid when chilled. Follow the directions below using only the water, vegetables, and seasonings to make your poaching broth and you will avoid having to handle all the fish heads and bones!
To avoid lingering odors in your kitchen, make the fish "soup" a day or two before you plan to serve it. Refrigerate the broth until you are ready to make the fish balls.
4 pounds whole fish (a combination of carp, whitefish, pike, snapper, or sea trout) or 2 pounds assorted fish fillets if not making jellied broth 2 carrots, cut into 1-inch lengths on a diagonal 2 stalks of celery cut into 2-inch lengths 1 bay leaf 1⁄4 teaspoon dried thyme or 1 sprig fresh thyme Pinch of marjoram 1 sprig fresh parsley 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced 3 quarts water 2 medium yellow onions 1 carrot 1⁄4 cup fresh parsley, very loosely packed 2 eggs 1⁄3 cup water 1⁄2 cup matzo meal Salt and pepper to taste Garlic, ginger, dill, or whatever your Bubbe used to use
Tina's Tidbits:
Gefilte Fish and Horseradish Mold
2 jars (24 ounce each) prepared gefilte fish balls 3-ounce box of lemon gelatin 1 cup boiling water 1 cup jarred fish broth, heated in a microwave for 1 minute 6-ounce jar of red horseradish, drained of excess liquid 1 carrot, sliced and cooked for garnish (optional) 2 scallions or chives for garnish (optional)
Tina's Tidbit:
Tri-colored Gefilte Loaf, Spanish Style
You can eliminate most of the tedious aspects of classic gefilte fish production by making loaves of gefilte fish mixture. The following recipe, which melds the flavors of a 500-year-old Spanish Jewish cuisine, was inspired by the time I recently spent in Spain with members of Barcelona's Jewish community.
1 onion, cut into 4 pieces 1 garlic clove, cut in half 2 eggs 2 packages of 22 ounce frozen gefilte fish loaves, thawed 3⁄4 cup matzo meal 1⁄2 teaspoon salt 20 fine grindings of pepper 4 ounces of carrots (about 2 medium), sliced and cooked 1 Tablespoon chopped fresh dill 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger 10 ounce package of frozen spinach, thawed 1⁄4 cup pine nuts or whole almonds, toasted 1⁄4 cup dark or golden raisins 1 tomato, roasted and skin removed 1⁄2 large red bell pepper, roasted and skin removed 1⁄2 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon Pimenton de la Vera (smoked) or sweet paprika Vegetable spray or oil

Is Tsonga past his peak? The 27-year-old Frenchmen has bounced around the top 10 for much of the last three years, but hasn't been able to match his run to the Australian Open final here in 2008.
Strengths: Not only does Tsonga bear resemblance to famed boxer Muhammad Ali, he owns the same fighting spirit on the court, as well. It's a purely athletic, aggressive game that Tsonga plays, attacking the ball from the back court and creating penetrating drives off of both the backhand and forehand sides. His forehand is particularly deadly, a stroke he whips through and doesn't hesitate the move around to hit an outright winner.
Weaknesses: While Tsonga hits some of the biggest balls in tennis, he can tend to go off the mark from time to time, finding inconsistent spells rather debilitating. While he utilizes a one-handed backhand slice to neutralize the court, he can often over hit when attacking, sending the ball long or into the net. And his usually booming serve can abandon him, leaving him vulnerable to a solid returner (Read: Nadal, Murray or Djokovic).
Opportunities: 2012 proved to have a subdued ending for Tsonga, who was upset in the second round of the US Open before going 0-3 at the World Tour Finals. He had finished 2011 with a bang, going 3-2 at the Finals and making the championship match against Federer one to remember. The world No. 8 will have the chance to save that shinking ship this year after losing to players outside of the top 25 in his last two trips to Melbourne Park.
Threats: While the 6-foot-2 200 lb. Tsonga is 4-9 against the Big Four in majors (not bad, really), he's gone out to unusual suspects like Martin Klizan, Kei Nishikori, Stanislas Wawrinka and Alexandr Dolgopolov in a handful of majors over the last two years. While these opponents shouldn't be underrated, Tsonga's vulnerability is now apparent early on in a Grand Slam, and a hot, steamy Australian day could prove difficult for him to lumber through against a smaller, more tuned-in opponent.
Craig Tiley, Australian Open tournament director:
"Tsonga's been a finalist here. He loves the Australian Open, loves the crowd and plays off them. If the crowd's on Tsonga's side, he does well. He's one of our fan favourites … He'll want this badly, and the question is – does he want it too much? Will he overplay? But regardless, he's dangerous."

Railway Bridge
Müngsten Bridge is the highest steel railroad bridge in Germany. The bridge is 107 metres (351 ft) high and spans the valley of the river Wupper, connecting the cities of Remscheid and Solingen. This stretch is part of railroad route nr. 458 between Wuppertal and Solingen. It is used exclusively by line RB 47, aka "the Müngstener".

Germany? Before the beginning there was Ginnungagap, an empty space of nothingness, filled with pure creative power. (Sort of like the inside of my head.)
And it ends with Ragnarok, the twilight of the Gods. In between is much fighting, betrayal and romance. Just as a good Godly story should be.
Heroes have their own graveyard called Valhalla. Unfortunately we cannot show you a panorama of it at this time, nor of the lovely Valkyries who are its escort service.
Hail Odin, wandering God wielding wisdom and wand! Hail Freya, hail Tyr, hail Thor!
Odin made the many lakes and the fish in them. In his traverses across the lands he caused there to be the Mulheim Bridge in Cologne, as did he make the Mercury fountain, Mercury being of his nature.
But it is to the mighty Thor that the Hammering Man gives service.
Between the time of the Nordic old ones and that of modern Frankfort there may have been a T.Rex or two on the scene. At least some mastodons for sure came through for lunch, then fell into tar pits to become fossils for us to find.
And there we must leave you, O my most pure and holy children.

Guide to Preparing Proposals
Initial Contact with Sponsor
A key element of successful proposal writing is establishing a relationship with your potential sponsor early on in the process. The purpose of the initial contact is to confirm the common areas of interest of the sponsor and the PI. Having a contact at the funding agency can greatly facilitate writing the full proposal, serve as a resource for answering questions, and shepherd the proposal through the review process.
Components of a Proposal
The format or presentation of a particular proposal will depend on the requirements of the sponsor to whom you are applying. Most sponsors have developed policies and procedures for the submission of proposals and may require the use of specific application forms. Other sponsors are less directive. In any case, PIs should obtain most recent versions of guidelines and should follow the required proposal format.
The following may be used as a guide to components of the proposal, when requirements are not specific:
Title Page– includes the title and duration of the project, amount requested, name and address of the PI and of the institutional contact (in most cases, G&CA).
Abstract or Proposal Summary – describes the objectives, methodology and significance of the proposed project. The abstract should be able to stand alone and should provide the reader with a first impression of the request.
Introduction– should specifically and concisely state the importance of the research being proposed.
Description of the Project– is the heart of the proposal and should describe what is to be undertaken and how it will be accomplished. You may wish to explore the general background of the current or previous research as well as describe the proposed program of work.
Bibliography– a listing of references cited in the body of the proposal
CV/Biographical Sketch – should be submitted for all key personnel, indicating background, professional interests, research capabilities and publications.
Budget and Budget Justification – should reflect a reasonable estimate of expenses necessary to conduct the project [see model budget and budget notes link on left for a sample]. The fringe benefit/tuition/indirect cost chart (see link on left) should be consulted for the most recent fringe benefits, graduate student tuition and indirect cost rates.
Facilities and Resources – describes equipment or other relevant resources that will be available to the project and that may be advantageous to the proposed project. Examples of such resources include: laboratory and office space, library resources, animal facilities, computer services or equipment.
Transmittal Letter– if the sponsor does not provide a form asking for an institutional signature, G&CA may provide a cover letter to accompany the proposal which indicates Yale's approval of the application/proposal.

Pfizer to buy Wyeth for $68 billion, cut jobs
Pfizer Inc. is buying rival drugmaker Wyeth in a $68 billion deal that will increase its revenue by 50 percent, solidify its No. 1 rank in the troubled industry and transform it from a pure pharmaceutical company into a diversified health care giant, reports the Associated Press. At the same time, Pfizer announced cost cuts that include slashing more than 8,000 jobs as it prepares for an expected revenue crash when its cholesterol drug Lipitor loses patent protection in November 2011. The cash-and-stock deal, expected to close at the end of the third quarter or in the fourth quarter, comes as Pfizer''s profit takes a brutal hit from a $2.3 billion legal settlement over allegations it marketed certain products for indications that have not been approved. The New York-based company is also cutting 10 percent of its work force of 81,900, slashing its dividend, and reducing the number of manufacturing sites from 46 to 41. Those closures, and reducing its facilities square footage by about 15 percent, will cost about $6 billion before taxes, of which $1.5 billion has been incurred, Pfizer said. The company did not specify which plants it would close. Job cuts at Pfizer will begin in the first quarter and are to be complete by 2011, according to company spokesman Ray Kerins. Cuts will include most departments, from administration in sales to manufacturing and research. Pfizer said it anticipates the new cost-cutting program will reduce spending by about $3 billion, $1 billion of which will be reinvested in the business. That''s on top of an existing cost-cutting program that has produced about $2.8 billion in annual savings, compared with 2006 levels. Like Pfizer, Wyeth -- the maker of blockbuster antidepressant Effexor and children''s vaccine Prevnar -- has its own cost-cutting program in place, dubbed Project Impact. Both companies'' boards of directors approved the deal but Wyeth shareholders must do so, antitrust regulators must review the deal and a consortium of banks lending the companies $22.5 billion must complete the financing. The deal is being financed by five banks, according to Kerins. They are Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Barclays, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan Chase. Acquiring Wyeth helps Pfizer diversify and become less-dependent on individual drugs -- Lipitor now provides about one-fourth of all Pfizer revenue -- while adding strength in biotech drugs, vaccines and consumer products. Wyeth makes the world''s top-selling vaccines, Prevnar for meningitis and pneumococcal disease, and co-markets with Amgen Inc. the world''s No. 1 biotech drug, Enbrel for rheumatoid arthritis. Together, and the two companies will have 17 different products with annual sales of $1 billion or more, including top antidepressant Effexor, Lyrica for fibromyalgia and nerve pain, Detrol for overactive bladder and blood pressure drug Norvasc.

My lawnmower is having issues, the tiller's on the blink, the dishwasher is leaking, Jilda's Volvo (Ingrid) needs work, and the transmission of my truck grinds like it's eaten a bad burrito every time I shift gears.
All these machines have served me well through the years, but it's almost as if Ingrid started a nuts and bolts revolution.
I can see the picture in my head. While sitting around a campfire sniffing WD-40 and telling human jokes, she says, "Hey! I've got a great idea. Let's synchronize our solenoids and quit working at the same time."
Things don't fix themselves, so today I decided to get started on the most important thing first. If the grass in the yard isn't cut soon, it will have to be cut with a scythe, so I decided to start with the lawnmower.
I replaced the fuel filter, air filter, fuel pump and hose. The only part I haven't replaced is the carburetor, and it still coughs and sputters like it has a nasty lung infection.
I decided to see if I had better luck with the tiller, but I discovered I'll have to completely disassemble the old beast to replace a pin not much bigger than a double-strength Tylenol.
This analogy came to mind when I realized I had a blinding stress headache.
I don't want to even discuss Ingrid. The tax refund that we thought we might use to take a trip will go for parts. The parts man will now be able to travel at our expense.
It's enough to make a saint swear.
Having the ability to fix things is both a blessing and a curse. A lot of people would simply call a repairman or load their defective machines up and take them to the shop.
That's fine and dandy if you're loaded with the moola, but since I've become un-jobbed, I don't have the disposable income I once had, unless of course I knock off a liquor store.
Through the years, I've had some success stories, but I've had other repair episodes that have gone terribly wrong.
There have been times I got so frustrated with whatever I was trying to repair, that I loaded it up, took it the recycling place and purchased a new device.
I'm not to the recycling stage yet, but I decided to step away from the tool shed for a while and collect my thoughts.
I found myself flipping through Mother Earth News and picturing myself astride a new John Deere yard tractor with the optional mulcher and bagger with cup holder designed to carry a glass of ice tea or an adult beverage if you're mowing on a hot summer Saturday — just saying.
Well, enough of this drooling over new lawnmowers. My headache has subsided, and I'm headed back to the tool shed with a new attitude.
I do think I'll lock up all the WD-40 just to ensure I have no more machines that join the rebellion.

Flood denies speculation he will renew run for Governor
Former State Senator Mike Flood is stamping out speculation that he will run for governor next year. Flood dropped out of the race in December after learning his wife had a fast-growing type of breast cancer, but his appearance at the recent Cattleman's Ball triggered speculation he was getting back in.
Over the weekend, one popular blog reported that Flood told "associates" that he "will run," but he responded with a Facebook post saying he and his wife had merely enjoyed a "great night" out at the ball...which raises money for cancer research.
Flood wrote that "nothing's changed up here" and that they were surprised by the bloggers. As for his wife, he said "She feels great and we're focused on her recovery."

Bliss MP killed in motorcycle wreck remembered
Updated On: Jan 16 2014 05:06:51 PM CST
A true Patriot ... that's how a Fort Bliss military policeman, who was killed by a wrong-way driver over the weekend, is being remembered.
ABC-7 spoke with close friends and colleagues of Robert Karr today to learn more about the soldier.
The 46-year-old survived two tours in the Middle East before dying suddenly early Sunday morning as he was riding his motorcycle on the freeway.
"We both put on our helmets, said goodbye to each other, gave a big hug to each other and minutes later is when he died," said Lt. Rudy Castro, who worked with Karr on Post and spent weekends riding motorcycles with him all over the Southwest. "I kept texting him and texting him and texting him. In the morning, I turned on the news and saw there was a head-on tragic accident on I-10. I knew it was him."
Police say Karr was killed instantly when he was run over by a wrong way driver, 30-year-old Nora Padilla, who also died in the wreck. El Paso Police are still trying to find out why Padilla was driving the wrong way.
"Had I gone the same way, it would have been both of us," said Castro.
Castro called Karr, who joined the military because of 9-11 at the age of 35 and served in both Iraq and Afghanistan, an American hero.
"He was a true Patriot, he was a hero," Castro said. "He did two tours down range to protect our freedom and it's unfortunate he had to die here on U.S. Soil. It's tragic."
Lt. Carlos Enriquez also worked and rode motorcycles with Karr.
"He was a great guy," Enriquez said. "What bothers me the most is he was doing the right thing, he was going home. He wanted to get some rest and unfortunately there was somebody on the road that didn't know what they were doing at the time and they took an innocent man's life."
Karr, who was a ride captain for the Placas Law Enforcement Motorcycle Club, was given the road name "Raven."
"Hopefully he's up there in heaven," Castro said, "with the rest of the birds."
Karr had a 15-year-old son and a daughter in her 20's. Funeral arrangements are pending. Both Castro and Enriquez wanted Karr's family to know that he talked about them often at work and while hanging out with the Placas Motorcycle Club and he loved them very much.

From the energetic nightlife of the city to the easygoing charisma of Small Town America, you will discover the Arkansas spirit everywhere you go. You're guaranteed a wonderful adventure in an Arkansas vacation rental, whether you want to get away from it all or be in the thick of it all!
Take a Hot Springs, Arkansas vacation
Of all the resorts you can visit, why not visit Mother Nature's? Hot Springs has more than just a soothing thermal pool. It has a historic downtown, brimming with clubs and restaurants; a multitude of shops for bargain hunteres looking for something rare; and it's a dream come true for outdoor lovers who can't help but take advantage of all the fun and adventure the Ouachita Mountains promise. A Hot Springs rental in Arkansas means something different for everyone. Maybe you'll lose track of time in the day spas, or watch time fly by on a mountain bike. Whatever the case, with Hot Springs, Arkansas vacation rentals, you can enjoy all of this and more… and save your pennies, too!
Consider an Arkansas Fishing Vacation
So many lakes, streams, and public lands exist within the Arkansas borders that, for some, sportfishing and hunting are huge aspects of the Arkansas vacation. Trout fishing is widely popular, and four types of trout are sought after: brook, brown, cutthroat, and rainbow. Bass fishing in Arkansas, another year-round activity, can lead to catching nine different species, including heavy stripers. Arkansas waters are known for producing world record-sized fish.
Game hunting is also plentiful; whitetail deer, elk, and black bear are big catches during the generous regulated season, while wild turkey and waterfowl are part of the smaller takes. If you're planning an Arkansas fishing vacation, why not book a lakeside Arkansas vacation home rental?
More About Arkansas Vacation Spots
Arkansas's regions, divided by terrain, are broken up into the Ozarks, River Valley, Delta, Central, Ouachitas, and Timberlands. The Ozark Mountain area is filled with picturesque lakes and rivers, hiking and camping opportunities, and strong different wineries, and Fort Smith is a marriage of Old West culture with modern amenities. The Delta region is steeped in agriculture and contains a number of historical parks and museums. Little Rock and North Little Rock is the main thrust of the Central Region, with history, shopping, and active nightlife.
The Ouachita Mountain region is home to a National Forest and the five Diamond Lakes. The Timberlands have bountiful natural resources, attracting outdoor sports fans and history-loving visitors. An Arkansas vacation cabin in the mountains is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts!
The Northeast region has many destinations for enjoying the outdoors. Blanchard Springs Cavern is located well within the Ozark National Forest, and is a limestone cavern of three levels, two of which are available for touring. Crowley's Ridge Scenic Byway shows the unique formation of crescent-shaped ridge, brimming with native wildflowers and cacti. Along the byway are restaurants, shops, and much culture and plenty of Arkansas history to discover. Come down to Ozark Folk Center State Park, celebrating Ozark heritage and its music. Here you can view traditional crafts such as blacksmithing and pottery making, learn to play folk instruments like the autoharp or dulcimer, or even learn how to cultivate an organic herb garden.
Rogers, Arkansas, in the northwest region of the state, lays claim to the birth of retail giant Wal-Mart. The Wal-Mart Visitors Center in Bentonville, Arkansas has exhibits on display that follow the growth of the stores and give a perspective into the founder, Sam Walton. The Arkansas Air Museum is a curiosity among museums, since the majority of the aircraft still fly. This museum is one of the few 1940s-style hangars still intact. Another trip into transportation history is found via the Arkansas Missouri Railroad, which uses restored passenger cars from the early 20th century to offer excursions to visit Van Buren, Fort Smith, and Winslow.
Little Rock is 115 square miles of small town feel coupled with exciting entertainment and cultural opportunities. The Arkansas Arts Center features a drawing collection with pieces dating from the Renaissance, as well as traveling exhibitions. The River Market District contains a full seasonal farmer's market, as well as restaurants and shops, and even a music concert series. Enjoy a round or two of golf in Little Rock or North Little Rock, where a course is set up as a Scottish-links layout. The Little Rock Zoo is a nationally recognized 40-acre garden with approximately 170 species (some endangered) represented. An impressive Neoclassical building, completed in 1915, houses the Arkansas State Capitol, and both structured and unstructured tours are available. Don't forget to check out the tours of Diamond Bear Brewing Company, Arkansas' microbrewery. Arkansas vacation rentals are a wonderful way to experience Little Rock's many possibilities.
Southeast Arkansas showcases the Delta region and is jam-packed with Arkansas history. The Delta Cultural Center, located in Helena, tells stories of the Civil War, early European settlers, the Mississippi River history, and highlights the Delta agrarian society through changing and permanent exhibits. Focusing on the wetlands and streams of the region and displaying wildlife, the Delta Rivers Nature Center is built similarly to an old-time hunting lodge. The Museum of the Arkansas Grand Prairie explains the history of Arkansas' rice crop and the people who created its strength, and the German influence that the settlers brought to Stuttgart.
Southwest Arkansas has a wealth of natural beauty. Crater of Diamonds State Park near Murfreesboro is the world's only diamond site available for public perusal and digging. You can take home any gems found here and learn the story of the diamonds in Arkansas. The Arkansas Museum of Natural Resources use methods of films and exhibits to divulge the history of the Arkansas oil boom of the 1920s, and also offers scheduled educational programs with interactive learning.

From top-level execs to workers in the field, enterprise end-users are growing increasingly dependent on anywhere, anytime access to essential corporate data and apps. As such, the call for an effective, business-critical mobile initiative is fast becoming the norm for organizations of all sizes.
[See related story: Mobile malware to pose significant threat]
But with greater exposure to information technology assets comes greater information security risks. And just as enterprises replace conventional mobile phones with newer handhelds that offer datacentric tools and access to sensitive information, IT departments are increasingly being forced to retool their data defense requirements to account for smartphone and PDA use.
"Organizations are thinking about the BlackBerry or smartphone as an extension of the computing network, and as a terminal that's carrying a lot of sensitive enterprise data," says Scott Totzke, vice president of the global security group at Research in Motion, maker of the BlackBerry handheld device. "We're hearing more than ever from customers looking at protecting data on the device. They want tools to kill information or lock it down when a handheld is lost, they want to encrypt sensitive data in transit and at rest, and there are growing concerns around compliance."
Although Totzke denies that security concerns are slowing down enterprise uptake of RIM's BlackBerry devices, he admits the issue has made his company's sales process "more complex," as customers are going to greater lengths to ensure that data on handhelds is adequately protected before they buy.
One such customer, FOWGroup, supplies IT services to the U.S. Department of Defense, among other federal agencies.
In working with the Pentagon's IT leaders on mobile device adoption, including an ongoing project to replace 1,200 existing handhelds with new BlackBerries, executives at the consultancy say that security concerns have become a primary focus.
In May 2006, the highly publicized theft of a Department of Veterans Affairs laptop containing millions of servicemen's records led to a series of heated debates on Capitol Hill. Since then the emphasis on making information security a central part of the hardware procurement process has shifted to the fore, including for handhelds, says Will Alberts, chief executive of FOWGroup.
"No one wants to end up on the front page of the newspaper, and everyone recognizes that the additional capability of storing more data on the device opens new risks," says Alberts, who is also a member of the National Security Administration's Joint Wireless Working Group.
"Senior leaders can't get enough of these types of devices," Alberts adds. "And sometimes their concerns around security are less than you hear from IT, but there's no question that the information-protection issue has become a central consideration for everyone."

Trango Squid Stick Clip
The Squid Stick Clip by Trango does an elegant job of clipping out-of-reach bolts and allows you to UN-CLIP carabiners from those same bolts. The Squid can pay for itself in recovered draws in just a few days and you can load up your karma bank by retrieving draws from others. "Fingers" at the end of the pivot-arm grab the gate and open it with a pull, letting you take the carabiner out of the bolt. If the draw is hanging, a clever set of arms will place your rope into the draw.

I really like this product. The design allows for easy clipping of the first bolt, unclipping of the first bolt, and works like a charm. Although I do not think that it is worth the price, if you're afraid of a too-high-to-be-safe first bolt, it's something that could potentially save your life. There are indeed other alternatives for stick clips, but should you desire, this guy is reliable and resilient. A suggestion would be to purchase a lightbulb changers pole in place of one of the Trango poles offered. These are great and you can just tape the Squid to the pole. Wah Lah!
I'll stand by the concept that composure and smarts are a climbers best forms of protection, but this thing really is a great buy. sport climbing is supposed to be fun and casual, and the squid helps to keep it that way. I know of very few climbers who will say they don't feel a little better pulling the bottom moves of a new route with that first high bolt already doing its job (this of course excludes the most die-hard of onsight-fanatics).
I bought the squid as a replacement for my clamp which I lost while climbing outside the US. I had a hard time using the squid. The rubber build up that is supposed to secure the biner between it and the arm does not offer enough friction to hold the biner in place. When I miss the bolt hanger, the gate of the biner is released and it closes. So that I have to take the quickdraw back down, then, reset it on the squid and start over. I did not have that problem with my clamp. I am actually going back to the clamp and I 'm selling my squid.
I love my squid. I'm a bit of a "combat style" sport climber, getting on routes way over my head all the time (and if I work them hard enough I can do them!) Its nice not having to worry about bailing because I can always stick clip up, or use the squid to recover my draws once I am on the ground. This thing is baller! I broke one (I threw it off a cliff and it landed square on a boulder squid down). No question. I went to the store and replaced it. These things are just INCREDIBLE!!!
The RED and NRG (especially the Lost Gauley) can have some tall 1st bolts. But when it comes to clip sticks, mother-nature (branches) or your local hardware store (cheap clamps) will provide a more economical and less frustrating solution. This device is great in theory but frustrating as hell. I've seen several break with ease so save the dough and do some googling on alternatives.
It takes a little practice to use the Squid, but it's incredibly useful. I find it a little harder to clip a rope into a draw that's already on the wall, so usually I just clip the rope into the draw before I clip it on the wall. I bought a 12 foot painters pole from a hardware store, and I can clip draws easily all throughout its range. Pretty sweet product overall.
Clipping into that first bolt often helps avoid precarious situations (cave overhangs and other exposed climbs where spotting is difficult if not impossible) and this device allows you to do so and also enables your belayer to focus on belaying and not spotting. Don't waste money on a spring clip duct taped to a pole, get the Squid and do it right the first time!
Simple, elegant, no extras no flash just the basics to get the job done. With The Squid fears of clipping the first bolt with more then a questionable runout vanish. With the ability to clip the first and sometimes second hangers it makes sport climbing a dream. Add in the extra feature of being able to unclip for those hairy times you just cant seem to send a route and its dynamite. Small, compact, and easily packable its an essential for the crag bag.

---- — SWAMPSCOTT — Police say a man grabbed a 16-year-old girl as she walked home on Wednesday evening, ripping her shirt as he tried to pull her into a car.
The incident happened about 8 p.m. as the girl was walking on Norfolk Avenue near Stetson Avenue. A Hispanic man in his 30s pulled up next to the girl in a dirty, older, white Honda Civic and told her to come with him and that he "knew where she lived," according to a press release from Detective Sgt. Tim Cassidy. Two other men were reportedly in the car's back seat.
"The victim became scared and told the Hispanic male that she wanted nothing to do with him and kept walking," wrote Cassidy. "The male party then grabbed the suspect and attempted to pull the victim into the car. The victim alleges she fought with the suspect, who ripped her shirt in the struggle."
The girl got away and ran to her home a short distance away. The vehicle followed her down Stetson Avenue, then fled onto Essex Street toward Salem.
The girl was uninjured during the incident and told her family when she got home.
The man was additionally described as having a medium build, a thin, chinstrap-type beard and a "slight patch of hair on his chin." He was reportedly wearing an orange striped shirt and tan cargo pants at the time of the attempted abduction.
Police urge anyone with information to contact detectives at 781-595-1111.

A new Sioux City Public Museum exhibit celebrates the history of war time vehicles. The exhibit opened up in conjunction with the anniversary of the attacks on Pearl Harbor.
The museum's director, says it's aimed at raising awareness about overseas conflicts that American military members have been a part of since World War II.
Along with vehicles, the exhibit also features combat weapons, uniforms, and other military equipment.
"I think what you see, you see pieces that were used in Korean era, World War II, and Vietnam era too and most people unless they were in the service would never see these vehicles," Steve Hansen, Sioux City Public Museum Director said.
The exhibit will be on display at the Sioux City Public Museum through March.

- 1-1/2 cups canned pumpkin
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup half-and-half cream
- 2/3 cup packed brown sugar

- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- In a large bowl, combine the first nine ingredients. Add bread cubes; stir to coat. Let stand for 15 minutes. Transfer to a greased 2-qt. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 50-55 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.

The Muppets are a group of puppets and costume characters, and the company created by Jim Henson. Individually, a Muppet is properly any one of the puppets built by the Jim Henson Workshop. Though the term is often used erroneously to refer to any puppet that resembles the distinctive style of The Muppet Show and Sesame Street characters, the term is both an informal name and legal trademark linked to the characters created by The Jim Henson Company.

NEW YORK (AP) - Braves outfielder Jason Heyward is back in the lineup after missing six games with a right hamstring injury, and starting pitcher Paul Maholm has been placed on the 15-day disabled list because of a bruised left wrist.
Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez has Heyward batting second and playing center field Monday night against the New York Mets.
Usually a right fielder, Heyward shifted to center for his first game since July 11 because B.J. Upton is on the DL with a muscle strain in his right leg. Upton ran for the first time since his injury.
Maholm initially injured the wrist while batting in his start at Miami on July 10. He walked off the mound Saturday after aggravating it in the fourth inning against the Chicago White Sox. Maholm flew back to Atlanta Sunday and had an MRI.
Gonzalez thinks Maholm would only miss two starts.

Emerging Leaders have at least a 3.0 grade point average and must be rising sophomores, juniors, or seniors at a fully accredited college or university in Virginia.
AFTER THE PROGRAM Students come away from the Emerging Leaders Program with knowledge and skills that are both relevant and beneficial to their career journey, and that add value to the scholarly community. As a result, the Emerging Leaders Program has helped to prepare students to pursue and compete at some of the nation's top graduate school programs, which include the Masters program in economics at Georgetown University, the PhD program in psychology at UC Berkley, the Masters program in theology at Princeton University, and the MBA and MD programs in medicine at Harvard University. Our students also gain employment at top businesses and firms such as Amerigroup, Verizon, Prudential Financial, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Marriott Corporate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and Teach for America.

maintaining long hair
Its obviously a long process. And for some, it is more frustrating than others. Take me for example. My hair is really wavy. So Its down to my lip now, but the waves keep it about at my nose. Anyway, I feel pretty stupid walking around with my hair at this length. I always knew it was going to look funny during this transition period between long and short, but still. Did any of you go through this too? I guess in another year it will be long, but for now im frustrated. Cause at this point its just annoying, not long. My sister said i need a haircut and i told her "im growing it out", so she says "gross"... Like i give a fuck what she thinks, but i thought id throw that in there anyway.
You are so metal....
and so is my wife!
whats your point timedragon?
I do understand the frustration but it'll pass. Pretty soon you can just throw your hair back and it'll look cool. I just cut mine off cause I'm looking for a job but it was getting to the kick ass looking length
Just have some patience. People are usually more impressed by it when it's in than they act like they will be. It's worth it if you want it.
Too bad you won't get a good job or hot chicks or anything...
But looking metal is WAY kewler
You can still get both, but if you don't I'm sure it's covenient to be able to blame the hair instead of the person under it. However you slice it, though, a hairstyle doesn't have to affect your quality of life, though it can if you let it.
ya me too man i waiting for it to grow n reach my shoulders
Hey dragon, are you the guy that posted a while back about getting slogged for having short hair at a gig or something?
he's right. thats the best way to get through the shitty middle stage. until it hit even around my chin i tended to gel it down and brush it back ala layne staley in the later years. it worked on since if i parted it in the middle as i do now it would all flip out like crazy. it just takes some patience, after a while the weight will hold it down on its own, about at shoulder length, oh and a word to the wise, get the hair above your ears layered so the hair lays right and looks ok when you pull it back. thats about all i can think of, good luck. oh yeah and the shampoo and conditioner you use helps too depending on what kind of hair you have
dont use gel as it cozes dandruff
I always wear a hat to keep my hair back, just put your hair behind your ears and wear a hat. My bangs are plenty long enough now (after 17 months) to put behind my ears, but until then, wearing a hat is best.
I may not have the best hair, but it reaches my nipples and I love it. .....when I slip on a shirt or put on my backpack I have the opportunity to flip my head back to fix my hair all girly and look cool. .....wait.....no....
damn, I really know what you are talking about. I had the problem too. I felt pretty stupid too but I always said to myself fuck off what the others are thinking ...
ya coz once its long its gonna look awesome no matter how bad ur hair is
my hair was down to probly my lip before i had to cut it. every one of my female friends decided that they wanted a picture of me with short hair before i grow it out again, now its only down to a little past my eyes.
pffft, i had some major problems with the shitty period. I couldnt go out on the street for one fucking second before people asked if i was a lad or a lass. It really annoyed the fuck out of me, but now its long (almost my nipples) and people shut up :).
They just ask me to bang my head every time.
I'm going throug that exact same thing. I still like it better now than when it was like I was in the beatles or somthing, that sucked. I have really thick hair so than I looked like I had a helmet on or somthing :sickface:
Haha yeah I'm sort of at the helmet stage right now...my hair used to be shoulder length but I shaved it all off well over a year ago........WHAT WAS I THINKING?!! :bawling:
i remember back in the day (bout 6 years ago) my hair was like that and it was annoyin but wen it grows past ure chin thats wen it starts to pay off, and u end up just letting it grow. My hair used to be past my belly button but i had it chopped about 3 inches a while back to straighten the ends, but its basicly very close to my bely button again
