PHILADELPHIA – Rashad Vaughn is one of the most highly sought after players in the nation in the crop of rising seniors.
A 6-foot-5 shooting guard from Minnesota, Vaughn holds offers from some of America's elite basketball programs.
While at the Reebok Breakout Classic, Vaughn said he has been offered by Kentucky, North Carolina, Baylor, Kansas, UCLA, Minnesota, Iowa State, Tennessee, and more.
Vaughn, who claims no favorites at this point in time, talked about what he is searching for in a school.
"Just the relationship with the coach, they play my style of play and if I'm going to come play right away and who I'm going to be playing with and stuff like that," Vaughn said.
Location will "not at all" be a factor for Vaughn, who went on to discuss who is coming at him the hardest.
"Really everybody, that's why I [have not] narrowed my list yet because it's hard," Vaughn said. "I got good relationships with basically all the schools that's recruiting me."
Thus far, Vaughn has been on visits to UCLA, Iowa State and Minnesota. He does not have any other trips planned.
"Sometime probably after the senior year season," Vaughn said of when he plans to make his commitment and going on to confirm that he will sign late.
The scoring wing is planning to trim down his list before he makes his decision.
"Probably at the end of summer I'm going to try, going to try to narrow my list," Vaughn said.
He noted that "probably about eight" schools will make the cut, but there are none that he knows are definitely in yet.
"I'm not even up to that right now," Vaughn explained. "I haven't even thought about it."
Vaughn recently made the decision to transfer from Robbinsdale Cooper (MN) to Findlay Prep (NV) for his senior year and he discussed that choice.
"My parents and I, we all decided that would be a good spot for me," Vaughn said, "and it's better competition for me in practice and out."
As for what his time at the Reebok Breakout Classic was like, Vaughn said, "It's been fun, I've been going against people, we've been competing and I've been just hanging out with my guys. So, it's been fun."
Vaughn, who would go on to be a co-MVP of the camp all-star game, discussed the type of player he is.
"I can play more than one position and I can score," Vaughn said. "So, I think that's probably the strongest parts of my game."
On the other end of the spectrum, Vaughn remarked, "[My biggest] weakness is [not] being efficient, [not] taking good shots and I'm working on my motor, not taking no plays off."
by Alex Schwartz
PHILADELPHIA – Emmanuel Mudiay of Prime Prep (TX) has been regarded as one of the top players in the class of 2014 for a few years now.
The 6-foot-5 point guard is a target of many high-major programs and discussed his recruitment while at the Reebok Breakout Classic.
Mudiay said he holds offers from "pretty much everybody," but there are no schools at the top of his mind right now.
Asked if any schools are coming at him particularly hard, Mudiay replied, "They're all the same."
When talking about what he is looking in for in a school, Mudiay listed a single main point.
"Just wherever will bring the best out of me," Mudiay said.
The rising senior added that location is not a factor for him and discussed whether there is a certain style of play he is hoping to find.
"Not at all," Mudiay began, before adding, "I mean, I'm a fast-tempo guy I'm sure that will benefit me too, so I'll look at that."
Arizona, Baylor and SMU are the only schools that Mudiay said he has visited so far, but he does have one additional trip planned.
"I'm going to Kentucky for the [Midnight] Madness," Mudiay said, adding that he has nothing scheduled prior to that.
As of now, there is no coach with whom Mudiay feels he has developed the best relationship with.
Of his timetable for a commitment, Mudiay said, "I don't know right now."
Mudiay also spoke about his experience at the Reeebok Breakout Classic, where he may well have been the most highly touted player in attendance.
"Without God this wouldn't be possible, so it's a great blessing to come out here and play against the top competition," Mudiay said. "So, it was cool."
The Lone Star State prospect took home co-MVP honors of the camp all-star game and spoke about what that means to him.
"It's a blessing," Mudiay said. "Like I said, all the glory belongs to God. Without him this wouldn't be possible. So I just thank him every day for this opportunity."
As for his goals for the summer, Mudiay said, "Just keep getting better, that's really it."
The talented backcourt prospect also touched on the type of player his is, beginning with his main fortes on the court.
"Making my teammates better, getting to the rack," Mudiay said. "Midrange, I'm working on that. So that's [a few] things I'm good at."
Of his primary weakness, Mudiay said, "Probably playing hard at all times. Sometimes I'll take plays off, but that's one thing I've been working on, that's one thing they're hard on me about."

PHILADELPHIA – The 2013 Reebok Breakout Classic came to an end on Friday and NBE Sports was in attendance yet again.
Each team played three games and we were able to see nine of them in action. The day was capped off by a fast-paced, high-scoring all-star game at night.
Chris Clover is a class of 2015 shooting guard from St. Joseph's Prep (PA) who possesses a quality frame. The 6-foot-4 rising junior has a pretty nice looking stroke and can connect from beyond the arc.
Jeremiah Jefferson of Kennedale (TX) is player who finds ways to produce could have made a strong case for being in the all-star game. A 6-foot-2 scoring combo guard, Jefferson is a quality shooter who is capable of getting his points from all three levels.
The main thing that elite 2015 small forward Derrick Jones needs to do is add a consistent jump shot to his arsenal. The 6-foot-5 prospect from Archbishop Carroll (PA) did knock down a couple of 3-pointers on Friday, though. However, his calling card is still clearly his elite athleticism. Jones is tough to keep out of the paint, has good body control, uses the baseline well, and is a big-time dunker.
Trayvond Massenburg, a 6-foot-8 power forward from local Vaux (PA), is a player who is capable of scoring in the paint and also has the ability to step out and shoot it some. The class of 2014 prospect has a frame that should be able to add some muscle.
Emmanuel Mudiay was co-MVP of the all-star game and deservedly so. The 6-foot-5 point guard from Prime Prep (TX) got to the rim at will and was basically impossible to stop off the bounce. The class of 2014 recruit has superb body control at the rim and is a major athlete overall.
Future Maryland Terrapin Jared Nickens of the Westtown School (PA) has really broadened his offensive game over the past year. A 6-foot-6 class of 2014 prospect who can play shooting guard or small forward, Nickens has really improved his ability to score off the bounce. He possesses a nice shooting stroke, as noted in the Day I recap, and has a pretty smooth game.

Many kids that share the same last name or the same name as their famous successful NBA veteran dad have a good shot of getting a scholarship to D-1 school, whether the scholarship is deserved or not. Avery Johnson Jr. though has the skills to get the scholarship without his father's name and he impressed at the NBA Top 100 Camp on Friday.
"It's tough because everybody expects you already to be good like he was in college and expects you to go to the NBA, but I just try and stay humble and be me," the younger Johnson told NBE on Friday. "He passed a lot. I can score, I'm a little bit better shooter. It's just hard because everyone knows the name and they expect you to be good. Some people hate you because they think I'm only on the Texas Titans because of my dad and I'm only going to certain schools because of my dad."

Before getting into the recruiting news, we want to send our condolences to the family and friends of Josh Level. A standout basketball player from North Carolina in the junior class, Level sadly passed away last week, far too young. The guys over at Ball is Life put together a nice "Josh Level Tribute Mix," which can be found Here.
On the trail, one of the biggest pieces of news involved a star dual-sport athlete. Derrick Griffin of Terry (TX) committed to Miami for football, in news that looks to have been broken by Peter Ariz of Canesooks to have been broken by Peter Ariz of CanesInSight.com. The class of 2013 prospect, who has signed a Letter of Intent, is expected to play basketball at Miami as well.
Griffin, who checks in at 6-foot-6, is a wide receiver/tight end on the gridiron and a power forward on the hardwood. He had been committed to Texas A&M for a long time, but did not sign with the Aggies due to reported academic issues.
Tyrek Coger of Word of God Christian Academy (NC) tweeted that he pledged to Middle Tennessee State. Coger is a 6-foot-8 center in the class of 2013 and he is a former Missouri commit.

After a long swoon during the holiday season, things have picked back up in a hurry on the recruiting trail. One of the nation's best big men made his pledge and several, as did a top-notch junior guard and several other players.
Dakari Johnson of Montverde Academy (FL) became yet another part of the star-studded Kentucky recruiting class. The 6-foot-10 class of 2013 center picked the Wildcats over Georgetown and Syracuse.
Johnson had been ranked No. 3 in the NBE Sports Class of 2014 Post-July Top 75, but he has since reclassified up to 2013. UK already has four additional top-15 commits in the NBE Sports Class of 2013 Post-July Top 125, as John Calipari is putting together his, if not the best class yet.

HACKENSACK, N.J. – Eight teams made their way to Hackensack (NJ) High School on Sunday for the New Year's Jump-Off. The quartet of games featured only teams from the Garden State, but there was a great deal of talent on display, including a few players headed to high-major programs.
Reggie Cameron of Hudson Catholic is the easy choice of who turned in the day's best performance. The 6-foot-8 small forward dropped 30 points and may well have had more if he shot more the fourth quarter had the game been close. Cameron, ranked No. 62 in the NBE Sports Class of 2013 Post-July Top 125, also grabbed 12 rebounds, distributed the ball well and made his presence felt on defense. A big-time shooter from long range, the future Georgetown Hoya really had his shot going in this game. He has such a smooth stroke and possesses the size to get it off over most defenders. Cameron also scored from midrange and at the rim. The senior even displayed the ability to play the point, which is something he has not really done before. He blocked shots, found open teammates for buckets and was the best low post player in the game, despite being a three man. Cameron led his team to a 70-53 victory over Pope John XXIII and put on in absolute show in his home city of Hackensack.

Things continue to be slow on the recruiting trail, but there is still a bit of high school hoops news from the past week or so to go over.
First off, Leron Black of White Station (TN) has decommitted from Baylor, per John Martin of the The Commercial Appeal. Black is a 6-foot-7 power forward who ranks No. 13 in the NBE Sports Class of 2014 Post-July Top 75. He was amongst the top non-senior players in American who had made a decision, but he is now back on the board.
Kameron Rooks of Mission Hills (CA) tweeted his intentions to attend Cal. Rooks is a 7-foot class of 2013 center who picked the Bears over a few other programs in the Pac-12. His father is former Arizona standout Sean Rooks.
Hofstra picked up a pledge from 6-foot-1 guard Iverson Fleming, per Adam Zagoria of ZagsBlog.com. Fleming is a class of 2013 prospect from New Brunswick (NJ).

Rob Fulford's Huntington Prep basketball machine has the biggest name in the high school and prep ranks with Class of 2013 superstar Andrew Wiggins anchoring his team. However, Fulford now has another star waiting in the wings in Montaque Gill-Caesar.
Only a sophomore, the 6-foot-6 Gill-Caesar already has the body of a college freshman and the Canadian first caught the eye of NBE over the summer on the AAU trail with CIA Bounce at the Adidas Invitational. NBE's Brian Bosworth was impressed with the relative unknown at the time as Gill-Caesar had a major breakout in a tough loss to the loaded Compton Magic 15U team. The small forward is a supreme athlete but doesn't just rely on athleticism to dominate offensively and showed a wide variety of offensive weapons over the summer as he hit pull-up jumpers using 1-2 dribbles in both directions and looked both confident and comfortable doing so. We even saw him hit a 15-foot fadeaway from the low post and then he hammered in a tip-in dunk on the next possession. He looks like the next big star to come out of the well known Canadian AAU program and Huntington Prep looks to be the beneficiary in the states of his talent. He has decent reflexes and good wingspan for a player his size. Gill-Caesar describes himself as a slasher on the offensive end.

Things have been very quiet on the trail over the past week, with few major commitments. However, there were a few newsworthy items from the high school hoops world lately and they are detailed below.
First off, the Oklahoma High School Sports Express reported that Stevie Clark of Douglass (OK) had signed his Letter of Intent to attend Oklahoma State. Clark is a 5-foot-10 point guard and he is ranked as the No. 101 player in the NBE Sports Class of 2013 Post-July Top 125. He is the second talented guard to pledge to the Cowboys recently, joining 6-foot-2 shooting guard Detrick Mostella of La Lumiere (IN).
Jeff Tarpley of AggieYell.com had the news that Tony Trocha inked with Texas A&M. Trocha is a 6-foot-10 center from Colombia who attends Saint Thomas (TX). The long post player has some definite upside and Scout.com's Evan Daniels reported that he may enroll in College Station this season.
Class of 2013 stud Julius Randle will be out for three months with a fractured right foot, per Jason Jordan of USA Today. Randle, a 6-foot-9 power forward from Prestonwood Christian (TX), is ranked No. 5 in the NBE Sports 2013 Top 125.

We only had one Recruiting Notebook last week, so there is a lot to get through in this one. Thus, we're going to go with a bit more of a quick, rapid fire style this time.
First off, Baylor picked up a pledge from 6-foot-9 center Dominic Woodson of Huntington Prep (WV), according to Scout.com's Evan Daniels. The big man is ranked No. 37 in the NBE Sports Class of 2013 Post-July Top 125 and is the second top-40 prospect to pop for Baylor in three weeks. Woodson's other finalist was North Carolina State.
Earlier today Austin Nichols tweeted he had committed to Memphis. Nichols, ranked #75 in the NBE rankings, is another major in-state coup for Josh Pastner and the Tigers over in-state rival Tennessee.
LSU landed a big-time commitment from Jarrell Martin of Madison Prep Academy (LA), per Ben Love of Tiger Sports Digest. The 6-foot-8 power forward is ranked No. 66 in the NBE Sports Class of 2013 Post-July Top 125. He is the third player in the top 75 to pledge to LSU in this class.
ESPN.com's Reggie Rankin had the news that Jajuan Johnson of Southwind (TN) had selected Marquette. The 6-foot-3 shooting guard is ranked No. 63 in the NBE Sports Class of 2013 Post-July Top 125 and joins two other top-75 ranked prospects in Marquette's class. Johnson chose Marquette over Alabama and Miami.

Things have continued to remain mostly calm on the recruiting front over the past few days. There were not big-time commitments to report, but that does not mean we are bereft of news. In fact, a couple mid-major programs received some superb news from potential impact targets lately.
Before getting into the news that has happened since the weekend, I do want to touch on a pair of Sunday commitments that I accidently overlooked in Monday's Recruiting Notebook.
First off, Missouri picked up its second 2013 frontcourt player in a week when Torren Jones of La Lumiere (IN) popped to the Tigers. The 6-foot-8 power forward is a rugged low post player with a strong frame. A native of Arizona, Jones is ranked No. 94 in the NBE Sports Class of 2013 Post-July Top 125. His pledge was first reported by Josh Paunil of National Recruiting Spotlight.

Commitments seem to have slowed down a bit over the past several days, but that does not mean we have been without any whatsoever.
In fact, while the total number may be smaller, a few superb seniors did take their names off the board since our last Recruiting Notebook. One Big 12 school landed a top-40 player, while a former Big 12 school also landed itself a top-40 player.
Jonathan Williams III was the top player to commit recently, and he is a huge pickup for the Missouri Tigers. A talented 6-foot-8 power forward, Williams is ranked No. 26 in the NBE Sports Class of 2013 Post-July Top 125. The Southwind (TN) star joins the long list of highly ranked 2013 prospects headed to SEC programs.
Baylor also picked up a major pledge, garnering a verbal commitment from Ishmail Wainright. The 6-foot-5 small forward was at one point briefly committed to Missouri, but then reopened his recruitment.
Wainright is a native of the Show Me State, but he transferred to Montrose Christian (MD) for his junior year and remains that for his final year of high school. He is ranked No. 32 in the NBE Sports 2013 Top 125. The news of his commitment was first reported by Alex Kline of TheRecruitScoop.com.

Quite possibly the best package deal in high school basketball history will have a destination today. Top-four ranked twin brothers Andrew and Aaron Harrison are set to announce their college intentions and will be choosing between Kentucky, Maryland and SMU.
The 6-foot-5 guards from Travis (TX) had long been working with a top five that also included Baylor and Villanova, but they have narrowed it down to a final trio. The general belief though, is that it is truly a two-horse race between Kentucky and Maryland.
UK is on a roll under John Calipari, as he is four for four in Lexington, Ky. in signing the No. 1 recruiting class in the nation. He has led Kentucky to two Final Fours and the Wildcats are the reigning national champion. UK has also churned out a plethora of first round picks under Cal and it is the winningest program in NCAA basketball history.

KISSIMMEE, Fla. — Saturday was the final full day of the last Live period this month. Coaches will be back in the gym on Sunday, but must leave at 5:00 p.m. There were quite a few players who excelled on Saturday and it looked like one player had the Top Performer spot wrapped up–until one 2013 wing went bonkers from long range in the nightcap. Also, a trio of big men originally from Africa were quite impressive, two top-five players shined again and a top-100 prospect in 2013 listed a favorite.
Omar Prewitt needs to be in the discussion of the best shooter in the United States at the high school level. A 6'5 shooting guard out of Montgomery (KY) put on an absolute SHOW for The Ville in the final game of the night. In the first half alone, Prewitt had 22 points and knocked in six 3-pointers. The final stats sheet was swooped away before we could take a look at it, but one of The Ville coaches said Prewitt had 33 points and a D1 assistant told us he hd 34. He finished with eight or nine 3-pointers and was simply unstoppable off the catch. Prewitt is not just a one-dimensional shooter, though. He has a smooth game and is more than capable of knifing through a defense and getting to the rim. Prewitt handles the ball pretty well and he can block shots at the defensive end. His Saturday night performance was one of the best that this writer has seen all month.

KISSIMMEE, Fla. — The third and final Live Evaluation Period of July got underway on Wednesday and NBE Sports was present at the ESPN Wide World of Sports for the 11th Grade AAU Nationals. Although due to the new July format there are not quite as many talented teams in action, there are still numerous quality squads in the event. There were several players who stood out on the first day of the tournament.
Derrick Griffin is an absolutely elite level athlete with truly incredible leaping ability. A 6'6 power forward from Terry (TX), Griffin is a 2013 prospect who has committed to Texas A&M as a football player. A member of the Houston Defenders, Griffin put on an absolute show in the squad's nationally televised game on Wednesday night. He as a great body, pretty good length and is both strong and powerful. He threw down a number of very impressive, crowd pleasing dunks and also swatted shots at the other end of the floor. Griffin rebounds the ball well and is an effective interior presence despite his relative lack of height. He is an exciting player to watch and he will have a nice career on the hardwood in the SEC if he plays both sports.

While "Live in AC" is only in its inaugural year that didn't stop New Jersey Playaz director Jimmy Salmon from putting together quite an impressive field of talent. I'll be camped out at the main Stockton College site throughout the tournament which features most of the 17U action with some of the younger guys sprinkled in. Here's who caught my eye on Wednesday night.
Top Performance of the Day:
Rysheed Jordan (Philly Pride 2013) – An electric scoring combo guard, Jordan played in two games on Wednesday night and was the best player on the floor in both including a matchup with Team Final that featured a bunch of high major talent. While Jordan refers to himself as a combo guard it's his ability at the point that stands out to me. He has unique athleticism for someone running the show and is able to use his physical advantages to explode past defenders and work his way into the paint. Jordan is best in the open floor when his physical tools can shine and his vision in high paced action also stands out. He has a great feel for the action in an up and down game and has a way of gliding through traffic and creating angles with his speed. In half court sets, Jordan punished defenders for playing off him by knocking down deep jumpers and then blew past them when they tried to press up on him. His decision making and knowledge of how to efficiently run a team still need work but Jordan's physical tools already make him a high major priority.

Friday night at the Peach Jam is a session I will never forget. It featured a game between CIA Bounce and the Texas Titans that will be talked about in recruiting circles a decade from now as the nation's best player made it clear he has no equal in high school basketball.
Top Performer of the Night:
Andrew Wiggins (CIA Bounce 2014) – Wiggins didn't just have the best performance of the night or the best performance of the tournament, but rather had arguably the best single performance I've ever seen in an AAU game. Matched up head to head with one of 2013's best in Julius Randle, Wiggins ended any lingering debate over who is the top prospect regardless of class. He finished with 28 points and 13 rebounds but those numbers don't even do justice to the greatness that he showed. Wiggins is the freakiest of freak athletes consistently making plays above the rim that leave scouts who have been doing this 20+ years with their jaws on the floor. His CIA team was down double digits at the half and Wiggins came out after intermission with a focus and determination to change that. It took about two minutes for the standing room only crowd to realize what was happening and they soon exploded with every play Wiggins made. He attacked Randle time and again finishing outrageous play after outrageous play. Words and numbers don't even do justice to the greatness that Wiggins showed on Friday night as he just operates on a different level from everyone else on the court. I said it during the end of the game and I'll stand by it here; I believe Andrew Wiggins will become the best player in the NBA before his playing career is over. He is an unstoppable offensive force.

West Virginia University held its Healthcare Expo Friday at the Morgantown Mall.
Officials said it is one of the largest wellness events in the area.
Those who came to the Expo could get screenings from more than 40 exhibitors from different programs at WVU Healthcare, Health Sciences and other affiliated organizations.
"A lot of them don't have healthcare maybe, insurance or they just don't know what is out there to help their individual needs," said Jan Johnson, of WVU Hospital. "Such as blood drawing, hearing protection, dental care, healthcare so it's to get out there and see what's in this area for them."
Most of the screenings given at the Expo were free.

For the first time in a month, both sides sat down today to try to avoid a faculty strike at Edinboro and 13 other state-owned universities.
No deal was reached after several hours at the bargaining table. But the two sides agreed to meet again on December 19.
Last month, the faculty voted overwhelmingly to give their negotiators the go-ahead to call a strike if no agreement can be ironed out. But no strike would happen until January at the earliest.
Still, even the possibility of a strike continues to cause plenty of concern among Edinboro students.
The faculty and the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education have been trying to iron a new contract for 2 years. They key differences are health care coverage for retirees, and pay for part-time faculty. But we've learned there has been some recent movement on both sides.
Faculty Union President, Jean Jones said, "I'm hopeful that things seem to be ever so slightly moving in the right direction."

South Jersey Technology Park awarded LEED? Green Building certification
The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) awarded the South Jersey Technology Park at Rowan University its Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) Silver rating.
LEED is USGBC's rating system for ranking the design and construction of the world's greenest, most energy-efficient and high-performing buildings, according to the organization.
"The South Jersey Technology Park's LEED certification demonstrates tremendous green building leadership," noted Rick Fedrizzi, president, CEO and founding chair of USGBC. "The urgency of USGBC's mission has challenged the industry to move faster and reach further than ever before, and the Tech Park serves as a prime example (of) just how much we can accomplish."
LEED certification of the newest SJTP facility was based on a number of design and construction features that positively impact the project and the broader community. These features include innovation in design, use of recycled materials, innovative waste management, pollution prevention and energy systems, among many other categories.
SJTP, located off Rt. 322 at the Rt. 55 interchange in Mantua Township, is a non-profit corporation funded through state and private grants. The goal of SJTP is to lead the economic revitalization of southern New Jersey through an integrated program of science and technology initiatives. SJTP's master plan provides for a 200-acre mixed research and academic technology park campus and is an integral part of the proposed 580-acre Rowan University West Campus. The recently completed 45,000-square-foot Samuel H. Jones Innovation Center, the first of 25 planned buildings at SJTP, opened in October. A mixed-use facility, the Innovation Center includes laboratories and laboratory/office space for private organizations and for the University's College of Engineering sponsored research and clinics. In addition, the building is the home of the Rohrer College of Business' Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship and Business Incubator.
USGBC is a nonprofit membership organization whose vision is a sustainable built environment within a generation. Its membership includes corporations, builders, universities, government agencies and other nonprofit organizations. Since USGBC's founding in 1993, the Council has grown to more than 17,000 member companies and organizations; a comprehensive family of LEED green building rating systems; an expansive educational offering; the industry's popular Greenbuild International Conference and Expo; and a network of 78 local chapters, affiliates and organizing groups. The LEED Green Building Rating SystemTM is a feature-oriented rating system that awards buildings points for satisfying specified green building criteria. The six major environmental categories of review include Sustainable Sites, Water Efficiency, Energy and Atmosphere, Materials and Resources, Indoor Environmental Quality, and Innovation and Design.

7 year old Ellie-Mae Mellor has walked for the first time in her life after undergoing 76 operations to correct the damage that meningitis had done to her body.
Mellor lost both her legs and an arm after she contracted meningitis when she was a baby.
Doctors advised Mellor's parents to organize the last funeral rites for her after she was rushed into hospital just before her first birthday.
Kelly, 34, said of her daughter, "I am so proud of my daughter. Ellie-Mae always has a smile on her face. She was so young when she got meningitis that she hadn't learned to walk at all – so she doesn't know any different. Ellie-Mae never grumbles or complains, she doesn't see herself as any different to her friends, and does everything they do. When doctors told me they needed to amputate, I didn't think twice about giving them permission. I just wanted them to do whatever it took to save my little girl. Ellie hasn't been able to use prosthetic legs up until now, as she has been growing so quickly, but she has learned to walk on a pair of 'rocking' legs, which she can walk about on really easily."
A lunchtime supervisor Kelly rushed Ellie-Mae to the University Hospital of North Staffordshire after she developed a small red bruise on her head, three days before her first birthday, in February 2007. Within hours, she was covered in a purple rush from head to toe.
Kelly said: "I could see how seriously ill Ellie-Mae was straight away, as the doctors were running around her frantically. When they said she had meningitis, I went numb. They told me I should let her have the last rites, as she probably wouldn't last the night. We had Ellie-Mae baptised, but we refused to let her have the last rites – it felt like we would have been giving up on her. I don't remember feeling anything. I couldn't believe this was happening to my daughter. I couldn't prepare myself to lose her, but by the next day, she was still fighting. Doctors did everything they could to fight the infection, but they said pretty soon they would have to amputate one of her legs and her arm. I didn't care, as long as she was alive."
Later on, Mellor was transferred to Birmingham Children's Hospital in March, before being allowed home in July. Days later, she was taken back into hospital, after the bone in her remaining leg had 'died' – doctors amputated it.
She has since had 76 operations but still remains good at heart.

Mugabe Facing Heat at African Summit
Posted on Mar 28, 2007
A clash between President Robert Mugabe's government in Zimbabwe and the opposition group Movement for Democratic Change escalated, with the MDC claiming that leader Morgan Tsvangirai and 20 other group members have been arrested. Mugabe's camp is denying Tsvangirai's detainment, which allegedly came just as the president was set to meet with a group of African leaders in Tanzania.
For a different take on this situation, click here to read the latest from Zimbabwe's state-sponsored Herald newspaper.

Same old tea party,
The international community says it is an African problem.
The arrested opposition members are being marked on their foreheads for easier identification in future. The efficiency of the oppression is gathering strength.
A free Zimbabwe will become a headache for the international community as we have lost faith in humanity, we have lost faith in the UN, we have lost faith in the alleged "message of peace" from western nations.

I am heartned by the fact that your web site is virtually the only non-African news source to even attempt at giving more than a one sided account of goings on in Zimbabwe.
Events are never as simple as the CNNs and BBCs of the world would have you believe. Thank you for at least aknowledging that there's more to the story than what is being reported.

Given all of the recent misfortunes of the Blazers, Wesley Matthews may deserve the most sympathy. At the time of his signing, he thought he was stepping into the best of both worlds- a significant contract given he'd only been pro for one year, and nonetheless signed by a team on the cusp of having a breakout season.
Yet at this point in time, I think Wes has really gotten the raw end of the deal here, to the fault of no one in particular. On an effort and consistency basis, one could argue that Portland's top three performers this short season have been Wes, Andre Miller and Marcus Camby. While Andre and Marcus are at the twilight of their careers, and are much less contractually-bound to the Blazers, Wes has 4+ years of his contract to fulfill with the sudden mediocre Blazers.
Roy has the same contract length, but he has his max contract and unstable knees and has (understandably) yet to figure out his new role. Aldridge is overpaid, and may or may not pan out to be the player we are all hoping he becomes. As for Oden, not much needs to be said. Nic Batum, who obviously has a ton of potential, is slowly shedding his "young/still learning" label and has to start building some consistency in his game. As for the rest of the roster, I don't think anyone else, as of right now, can be considered a significant building block for the Blazers.
I know the season is young, and I know there are tons of scenarios that could play out for each of these important Blazers (and thus as a whole), but it doesn't seem too far-fetched to envision this team in the medium-range future without Andre and Marcus, with Oden struggling to come back on the Blazers or someone else, Lamarcus never reaching his perceived ceiling, Roy never returning to All-Star status, and Batum never panning out or perhaps traded.
Game in and game out, Wes brings a level of determination and drive this season that's only been matched by the wily veterans Miller and Camby. I can imagine him laying awake at night and wondering how he will endure this bumpy journey. I feel for him

Nottingham Forest boss Sean O'Driscoll admitted his side rode their luck at times in the 1-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday.
Forest were thankful to a Miguel Llera own goal in the closing stages for their three points after both sides missed a series of good chances.
"This is this division," O'Driscoll said. "There's a small margin between the top and the bottom.
"The game could have gone either way, both teams were guilty of missed chances.
"We won't be swinging from the rooftops - we've got a bit of work to do but I've got the right players to do that work.
"At least we are moving in the right direction. There will be a few bumps in the road, but we're getting there."

BROOKLYN, N.Y. – September 14, 2009 – With over 200 new freshmen, St. Joseph's College is pleased to announce that this year's incoming freshman class is the largest in the history of the Brooklyn Campus. This news follows St. Joseph's recent rankings in both U.S. News & World Report and Forbes Magazine's "America's Best Colleges" issues for the 2009-10 academic year.
"This has truly been a banner year for new student enrollment at the Brooklyn Campus," said Theresa LaRocca Meyer, vice president for enrollment management at St. Joseph's College. "Not only is the freshman class of 204 the largest in the history of the College, but the academic quality of the group is equally as impressive."
St. Joseph's College was recently ranked for the eighth consecutive year by U.S. News & World Report to its top-tier of "Northern Comprehensive Colleges – Bachelor's" category, receiving a tie-ranking of 17 with Endicott College for 2010. U.S. News & World Report bases its annual rankings on graduation and retention rate, faculty resources, selectivity, faculty/student ratio and the assessment of each school from its peers. St. Joseph's College's strong freshman retention rate helped secure the institution's spot in the top-tier, while the College's continuing dedication to highly personalized instruction is reflected in the 15:1 faculty-student ratio and the fact that the majority of classes have fewer than 30 students.
St. Joseph's was also named to Forbes Magazine's "America's Best Colleges" online issue for the second consecutive year. Maintaining its overall high ranking of 13 in New York State, St. Joseph's College offers one of the lowest tuitions of all private colleges in the tri-state area. Criteria for ranking by Forbes Magazine is based on the average student debt at graduation, percentage of students graduating in four years and the number of students or faculty who win national competitive awards.
About St. Joseph's College
St. Joseph's College has been dedicated to providing a diverse population of students in the New York metropolitan area with an affordable education rooted in the liberal arts tradition since 1916. Independent and coeducational, the College provides a strong academic and value-oriented education at the undergraduate and graduate levels, aiming to prepare each student for a life characterized by integrity, intellectual and spiritual values, social responsibility, and service. With campuses located in the Clinton Hill area of Brooklyn and in Patchogue, Long Island, the College offers degrees in more than 29 majors, special course offerings and certificates, affiliated and pre-professional programs.

Nintendo has said time and time again that they have no plans to start making games for other developer's hardware, and time and time again, analysts, editorialists, and enthusiasts have called them out for this decision.
Nintendo seems to think that the potential short term profit they could make from supporting other devices wouldn't be worth the long term devaluation of their own hardware that would come with it. Critics say that Nintendo's hardware has been so devalued by +15 years of little to no AAA third party support that it's time to face the sad facts and give up.
It's not that black and white of a situation. There are ways for Nintendo to have their 3DS/Wii U cake and eat the other guys' install bases too. Case in point -- The Pokémon Trading Card Game Online for iPad, which according to Pokémon Master and YouTube personality @TheJWittz, is planned for release later this year.
Apparently he was strolling around the Pokémon Trading Card Game World Championship event being held this weekend and just stumbled upon a kiosk with 8 iPads running an all new virtual adaptation of Nintendo's classic card game. That's a weird way for Nintendo and/or The Pokémon Company International to make their biggest announcement of the year, but there you go.
Further details are scant at the moment, but JWittz was able to tell us that "It is an official app in works by The Pokémon Company International (TPCi). I'm not 100% sure on TPCi's relationship with Nintendo, but it is definitely official and not fan made in any way. It's an official display run on a TPCi-run event, with a TPCi employee and developer answering questions." He's planning on getting a video of the game up on his Youtube channel this weekend, so keep your eyes peeled.

Firefall is a game that has seemed to get a lot of press over the past few years, often for the wrong reasons. Whether it's word of troubled staff, protests, or delays, most Firefall news isn't good news.
But alas, as we all know, the true test of a game's strength is how it plays on its own merits, when it's fully released. After testing it out for a few weeks I can safely say that Firefall hasn't blown me away, but it has laid a decent foundation to build upon in the future.view full story + comments
Gamescom is the largest videogame trade show in the world. Sound like a big deal? It absolutely is.

This is the crowd in the main hall on Thursday -- what's supposedly the least busy of the three days it's open to the public.
Reciprocating the scale of the event is the size of the games that publishers have on display. That was the theme at gamescom 2014: Big. All the biggest titles are here, and given how close we are to the holiday launch season, they're looking the most polished that we've seen them yet.
In no particular order, these were Destructoid's top ten games of gamescom 2014, as explained by Dale North and myself.view full story + comments
A lot of people seemed disappointed when Sony closed its gamescom press conference without much mention of the PlayStation Vita. And it isn't difficult to understand why.
The struggling portable seemed like an afterthought yesterday. Anyone hoping for an exciting new Vita reveal was left wanting. Adding insult to injury, the system actually managed to lose an exclusive, as Tearaway was announced for PlayStation 4.
There was a single moment during the event that seemed indicative of Sony's approach to the handheld. Thomas Was Alone creator Mike Bithell took the stage in Cologne, and showcased his upcoming project, Volume, a stealth title destined for PS4 and Vita next year. It's an independent game from a tiny, but talented developer. And it's cross-platform to boot.
Outside of cursory mentions like that, Sony's show was all about PS4. And why not? It's the newer and more successful system. Sony allocated its airtime wisely, highlighting its breadwinner, rather than choosing to fight an uphill battle. It made perfect sense, too, given Microsoft's strong showing earlier in the day.
That's a rational outlook, though. Sadly for Sony, humans aren't always rational creatures. Vita owners felt spurned, and they made sure Sony heard about it.view full story + comments
[Update: Konami has confirmed this news live at its gamescom conference. No release dates were given.]
For years, Metal Gear Solid fans have been asking director Hideo Kojima if and Konami would bring the games to PC. Traditionally the series has been a mostly console-only affair, but with Metal Gear Rising we saw that maybe the publisher was changing its mind in regards to the platform.
Well, if a listing on the official UK Konami site is to be believed, both Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes and The Phantom Pain will be coming to Steam. When the former is arriving isn't quite known, but the latter will likely launch alongside of the console versions, if not slightly after.
This is great news for PC fans who have always wanted to give the series a go. Ground Zeroes is also perfect Steam sale material if you're on the fence.view full story + comments
Gamescom is a noisy, crowded mess. Shoulder to shoulder with patrons that didn't seem to care what they bump into, I trudged my way to my next appointment. As I stepped through the door to the meeting room, something unexpected happened. I was teleported from a loud convention center to a rebellious teenager's room.
Seated at the foot of a twin-sized bed, I took in my surroundings. The top of a makeshift television stand housed a half-smoked joint, while a pair of dirty Converse rested underneath. Posters of influential punk rockers littered the wall, all askew. "Fuck" was scrawled on almost everything, but especially a tattered American flag.
I wasn't in Germany anymore. I was in Arcadia Bay, Oregon. More specifically, I was in Chloe's safe place -- the only spot in the world where a misunderstood teenage girl can be herself. I was inside the world of Dontnod's newly announced Life is Strange, and it was a wonderful place to be.view full story + comments
Far Cry 3 had some pretty wild moments. Like, remember when Vaas was dancing around on the stripper pole? Good stuff. Far Cry 4 will have some crazy segments as well, but these are a little more grounded to the core of the game.
Scattered around Kyrat are hidden tankas that, once discovered, allow the main character to meditate and travel to Shangri-La to relieve the life of a legendary warrior. You'll be transported to a surreal world with floating islands and you are equipped with only a bow and arrow to take on the enemies of these environments.
Oh, and you have a tiger that you can command to attack others. The tiger can also turn invisible.view full story + comments
It seems like yesterday when we were all huddling around the mysterious WebM videos floating around the internet. Showing a strange and unknown game resembling a Souls title, many people didn't know what to make of it. The character looked unlike anything from Dark Souls or even Demon's Souls, and the weaponry looked even more bizarre. But the more we saw, the more intrigued we all became. Tentatively called Project Beast, the footage showed a world in chaos, very much like the previous Souls titles.
During Sony's E3 press conference, we finally got the official reveal of the game, now called Bloodborne, and what we saw was something far more bleak and depressing than anything the previous Souls titles could muster. Once more details began to surface, fans were curious to find many changes to standard gameplay.
But was this still a Souls game? Well, Destructoid was invited out to PlayStation HQ in San Mateo to play some of their gamescom offerings, and we got to spend some quality time with From Software's next title.view full story + comments
I wasn't very happy with Dragon Age II.
Whereas Origins was a glorious return to old-school RPG sensibilities, Dragon Age II played like an action game that took place in the same universe. I liked the sequel for different reasons, but it felt like a wasted opportunity as it attempted to juggle some of the RPG elements from Origins while having some faults of its own, like re-used environments and a lack of scale.
If you felt the same way, Inquisition may be for you.view full story + comments
At the EA press conference today, BioWare announced its next project, Shadow Realms. Jeff Hickman, the Studio General Manager discussed its inspiration in old school pen and paper role-playing games, before elaborating on how that applies to the videogame.
Set in a "modern fantasy" world, the heroes form teams of four to do battle against the forces of the Shadow Lord, who controls a range of evil creatures. The result is an online role-playing game with asymmetric multiplayer.
Of course, BioWare throws in its own twist, where story remains a significant component of the gameplay. The studio plans to release content for Shadow Realms episodically, so the community can experience the progression of the story as it evolves together.
Shadow Realms is scheduled to release for PC "late next year," but it is currently playable at gamescom, and interested parties can sign up for the alpha at ShadowRealms.com.view full story + comments
Oh that Hideo Kojima.
During Sony's gamescom 2014 press conference earlier today, there was bizarre, eye-catching announcement for something called "P.T." which was said to be playable immediately for PS4 via PlayStation Network. It was shown so quickly that many of us didn't think much of it. Whoops.
Turns out that P.T. is a playable teaser for the next Silent Hill from, get a load of this, designer Hideo Kojima and director Guillermo del Toro. The game -- which seems to be named Silent Hills, presumably because that's how Kojima rolls -- stars actor Norman Reedus.
The ruse was figured out by Twitch streamer SoapyWarpig, whose playthrough of P.T. can be seen here. Skip to around 1:16 for the unveil or simply take a look at the .gif below. As someone who hasn't been much into the series in recent years, this is one hell of a way to win me back.

Sony's gamescom showing went by quickly, with announcement after announcement and more than a few new intellectual properties put on display for the first time. Really, though, it's still From Software's Bloodborne that has me most wanting a PlayStation 4. As for the PS Vita, the handheld was practically non-existent at the press conference. Poor thing!
If you missed out on the stream or simply couldn't keep up, here's what went down.
If you don't like Halo, you probably didn't have a great time watching Microsoft's gamescom conference today. Having said that, they did have a decent indie sizzle reel showing, and the ID@Xbox program is making vast strides compared to how rigid its old ways were during the tail end of the 360.
Check out all of the news from Microsoft's conference below.view full story + comments
Today at gamescom, Sony has announced that they have "exceeded" 10 million units sold globally for the PlayStation 4. President and CEO of SCEE Jim Ryan confirmed that these are 10 million units sold direct to consumers.
It's pretty amazing how Sony has turned things around from the troubled launch of the PS3. Whereas the Xbox 360 was the "default" system for a lot of publishers when it came to previews and reviews in the games industry, the PS4 has slowly been taking over this generation. At a recent visit to BioWare, developers even noted that an "increasing" amount of fans were migrating from Microsoft platforms to the PS4, and demanded a tool to transfer over progress.view full story + comments
Diablo III has had a tumultuous history to say the least. Always-online DRM, the Real-Money Auction House, and loot problems plagued the original release -- all issues that took months to address. It's a hot-button issue even now, with many gamers stating that the PC players were had, paying for a "demo" of the console version that would eventually drop with all the fixes in tow.
For those of you who did enjoy the game previously or haven't gotten caught up in the maelstrom of problems though, the Reaper of Souls expansion delivered in just about every way possible. Thankfully, the Ultimate Evil Edition brings that same great experience to consoles.view full story + comments
Activision is upset with us, you know. As it turns out, publishers love revealing things. So when someone leaks something before a publisher intends on tipping its hand, well, it gets angry. And you aren't going to like a publisher when it gets angry. That's when certain invites to certain preview events start getting "lost in the mail."
Missing out on a hot ticket like that sucks, but it's not really the end of the world. Everyone's played Call of Duty. And lord knows we've done a preview or two in our time. Hm... Actually, you know what? With a little imagination and some assumption of false optimism, I think we can make this work. You're going to get a damn Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare preview, dammit!
Even if it's a totally fake one.view full story + comments

Jon Jones just became the youngest champion in UFC history, beating Mauricio Rua in the third round of Saturday's UFC light heavyweight title bout. But how did he do it? Let's break it down, minute but minute, blow by blow.
After Bruce Buffer's typically insane introduction and Joe Rogan's ill advised Mike Tyson comparisons, it was time to get it on. Rogan and Mike Goldberg had the call. Referee Herb Dean asked for just two things -to follow the rules and protect themselves at all times. Seems fair enough. Are you ready to crown a king? Pictured techniques in bold beneath each photo.
00:00- 01:00: Shogun stalks Jones and is met immediately with a flying knee attempt. Jones was looking for something spectacular early. Instead he'd have to settle for 12 minutes of amazing. Jones throws a left head kick and a right front kick and Shogun shrugs both off to grab a clinch. Rua is in a difficult spot. The shorter fighter usually wants to close the distance like this with someone as long as Jones. The problem here? You're closing the distance into the grasp of a man with the best clinch takedowns in the game.
Jones breaks free and throws a spinning back kick. "Unorthodox," is what Mike Goldberg calls it. I can't help but agree. Keep in mind all this has happened in just 20 seconds. We're off and running at a super fast pace. As the first 30 seconds comes to a close, Jones plants Rua with a vicious takedown. If you're a Rua fan, things are not looking good right about now. Rogan is spot on about Rua looking for an underhook on Jones' leg but Jones is too savvy, strong, and long for that to possible work.
01:00-02:00: Jones is in half guard and looking for the same choke or neck crank he finished Ryan Bader with. Shogun considers a knee bar, but pulls guard instead. Jones looks to strike for the first time with 3:15 remaining in the round, landing a light right hand, following quickly with a left elbow. Shogun looks very small beneath him.
02:00-03:00: Rogan is still spot on calling the action. Rua is able to underhook Jones's right leg and grimaces in hope and pain, looking for a miracle sweep. Jones never even seems to move. The size and strength different is marked and Rua is now in half guard. Jones grabs Shogun's temple here and Herb Dean warns him to stay away from the eyes. It may have possibly been the first MMA attempt at Baron Von Rasche's "Iron Claw."
Jones lands two left elbows and right to the body. Rua absorbs it in order to resume the full guard. Jones lands two more left elbows to Shogun's doughy mid section. Rua uses it as an opportunity to move his legs up for a possible triangle. Say what you will about Shogun - he certainly doesn't lack toughness. He's willing to take a few to get the position he wants.
03:00-04:00: As Jones postures up and begins working at a faster pace, Herb Dean notices his thumb in Rua's neck. Things are getting down and dirty in New Jersey. Rua looks to scramble to his feet and Jones lets him go, making him pay with a huge left knee to the body, following with a right kick to the head the moment it becomes legal. That's followed in turn by a left, right, left combination and business, as they say, is picking up.
Jones loses some momentum with a missed frontkick and a knee stomp that just grazes the champion. Rogan announces Shogun is hurt just as he lets go with his own desperation left hand. Jones counters with a right, but the Rua punch spooks him into letting his prey off the cage. Jones watches with a dispassionate separation as Rua comes stumbling forward, clearly dazed. Rua throws a right but Goldberg notes "how wobbly he is." Jones looks for a finish with an uppercut that hits nothing but air. Had it landed, we'd still be looking for Rua's teeth in the Prudential Center.
Jones throws another side kick. He's clearly targeting the knee, but Rogan calls it a kick to the thigh. Jones grabs a thai clinch and lets loose with another knee. Shogun is just looking to survive here, but the pace has slowed to the point it seems Jones might let him. Jones switches stances to let lose a huge left that was a fight ender if it lander solidly. It does not. He closes the minute of action with a left to the body followed by a knee to the body. Is there any wonder Shogun had little left later in the fight? Jones is working the body hard here.
04:00-05:00: Jones pushes Rua into the cage and then lands another kick to the knee. Knowing the struggles Rua has faced with multiple surgeries, this is brutal and ugly stuff from a determined and vicious fighter. Shogun lands his best punches of the fight, a left-right combo that made Jones take a step back. "He looks like he's a full weight class bigger than Shogun," Rogan proclaims. He's absolutely right. Jones throws a spinning elbow that misses and Shogun has the temporary advantage. Instead of doing what he does best, he inexplicably falls back for a leg lock. "Very bad," Rogan says. Jones proceeds to headbutt Rua in the stomach. Between this, the knee stomp, and the iron claw, it's been an ugly fight.
After the break: Rounds two and three in detail.
Round 2:
00:00-01:00: Jones throws a leg kick, that Shogun checks, but it's worth remarking that Rua hasn't thrown a single kick at Jones's skinny legs. It was supposed to be a huge advantage for him, but it's a weapon he's left in the holster. Shogun misses wildly with a left and ends up against the cage. Jones lands his famed spinning elbow. It does some damage, and boy is it exciting. He follows with a left and Shogun is looking out of his league.
Jones lands a Superman jab and Shogun circles out of trouble. Jones lands two leg kicks and Shogun misses wildly. "Shogun is too slow," Rogan proclaims. It does seem the Brazilian is moving through molasses.
01:00-02:00: Jones lands another leg stomp and then palms Rua's face. That was a Liddell style eye poke just waiting to happen, but luckily the blow ends up incident free. He continues to throw an open hand out there, finally landing with a knee to the body as Rua looks to clinch. They trade some tepid knees before Shogun breaks contact.
Shogun is still struggling badly with Jones's reach advantage, missing badly on a right-left combo. Jones loads up on a right hand to the head and then a wicked left to the body. Shogun charges in like a bull throwing wildly, but Jones sees him coming a mile away.
02:00-03:00: Jones is switching regularly between southpaw and orthodox stances here. Rua hardly seems to notice. Does it matter if the only science in your style is gleaned from watching bull fights? When he goes southpaw, he makes it count, nailing Rua with two big lefts. Jones is landing a series of punches and kicks and Rua has no answer. At 2:40 remaining in round two he throws his first leg kick. Jones catches it and puts him on his back. It was that kind of night for Rua.
He lands two big lefts and then goes for an old school can opener, rubbing his head on Rua's face, eventually covering up Shogun's mouth with his hand. It's worth noting that Jones, for all his values talk, is not afraid to push the rules to the breaking point. He's not throwing much here, but does land two nice elbows from inside Rua's guard.
03:00-04:00: Jones continues his ground and pound attack with more elbows to the body while Goldberg runs down his resume. It's honestly a little thin. That's about to change. Jones is trying to pass to half guard and Rua uses the opportunity to attempt a sweep. Jones wins the battle. Rua is trying to defend the elbows he knows are coming by putting a hand on his face. Literally.
04:00-05:00: Golberg points out how patient Jones is being with his ground and pound and it's true. For better or worse, there is no Shane Carwin style attack here. Jones is preserving energy for a five round fight, even at the cost of a potential early stoppage. It's smart and patient, especially for a 23 year old fighter in his first PPV main event. Rua continues to look for the same sweep over and over again. Jones puts his forearm in Rua's neck to drive the point home: it's not happening. After some "stay busy" ground and pound, Jones closes the round with his own kneebar attempt, landing a hammerfist for good measure. It wasn't a real attempt - he knew how much time was left. But it sent a message for sure.
Round 3:
00:00-01:00: "Shogun is a champion for a reason," Goldberg says to to open the round, trying to make the audience believe the fight will suddenly get a lot more competitive. Shogun misses badly with several punches, still chasing Jones, still unable to find him in range. Jones misses badly with an uppercut and the pace has slowed quite a bit from the furious first round.
Jones misses with a headkick, giving Shogun a momentary advantage on his back. The Brazilian tries to pull him to the mat. He wasn't diving for a leglock, as Rogan claimed in the commentary, but when Jones didn't budge and he slipped free of his waistlock, that was his fall back move. Jones ends up in dominant position, but can't secure a Kimura.
01:00-02:00: "It's man against boy," Rogan says and it looks like it. Jones looks to trap Rua's arm and do some serious damage, landing a couple of strong lefts before Rua can pull his arm free and defend. A three punch combination follows. Jones is starting to let loose, dropping seven consecutive punches on Rua, many at least partially deflected.
02:00-03:00: At the 2:50 mark, Jones lands a huge left hand as the crows oohed their appreciation. A left and right elbow were next and suddenly Shogun wasn't defending nearly as effectively. Now Jon Jones is attacking furiously with a combination of elbows and punches. After a knee to the body, Shogun staggers to his feet. A big body punch is followed by a knee and Herb Dean is right there to stop the fight.
Jon Jones is the new light heavyweight champion of the world. It was a route standing, in the clinch, and on the mat. Jones showed as wide a variety of techniques as anyone in UFC history - including some beyond the confines of the rules. It's a lot for potential opponents to take in. Jon Jones, it turns out, is an even more dangerous man than we thought.

hi there!!! i usually count my 60min TRX class as "aerobics high impact" on MFP ... if you use the calculation from : http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/108290-how-many-calories-lost its about 490 calories for me per hour!!!! but i guess it depends on your weight

The best way to gauge how many calories you're burning per workout would be from a heart rate monitor that you would wear on your wrist. Each person would burn differently due to sex, age, and weight.

I'm all for helping anyone that needs help and advice, but this is silly. People, please invest in an inexpensive heart rate monitor and google "calculate calorie burn with heart rate" If getting a heart rate monitor is not possible right now, then take your pulse for 15 seconds and multiply by four to get your current heart rate. Do that at intervals during your workout to calculate your average heart rate during the exercise. Then go to the aforementioned google search and figure it out. I'm sorry if I sound a little harsh but gee wiz at least try to do some of the work yourself.

Can't believe it isn't in the exercise database. Someone PLEASE ADD IT! Sorry, but I am shopping for a HR Monitor - just haven't figured out which one yet. Besides, the data base lists many, many exercises to make it easier to journal, so it makes sense to include a few more things that are currently offered at gyms across the world.

I wear a Polar HRM during my TRX workouts and I'll burn over 600 during a 30 minute class. It can vary quite a bit on how much you burn, depending on the routine you do, as well as your body and effort you put into it. For something like TRX, you really need a HRM to get an accurate burn number, you could easily be several hundred calories off using any type of calculation for it.

I swear by my heart rate monitor as everyone is different in regard to their heart rate while working out and the amount of calories burned. The calories burned all depends on how hard you workout.

this^^ as the TRX workouts are designed to accomodate all levels of intensity (thus calories burned) by the angle your body is in during the exercise (for most of them anyway). Are you dripping so much sweat during your TRX workout that you worry about ruining your carpet? Are you a bit sore from your last TRX workout? - or- could a 90 year old do your workout without breaking a sweat? TRX can accomodate both extremes.

Be careful when buying a HRM, I have one for my wrist and I still can't figure out how to set it up and stay on calorie counting. I'm annoyed they make some of these things so complicated.

The Assembly Select Committee on Justice Reinvestment will hold a hearing on Wednesday, Nov. 13, to listen to experts speaking on existing programs in California and beyond. The committee is looking for practices that could be adopted or expanded to improve justice practices and reduce the California prison population to allow constitutional levels of health care.

We ask you, Gov. Brown, to set an example. In their time, the U.S. Army consigned the inhumane prison conditions at Dachau to the trash heap of history. The same thing should happen now to the unbearable prison conditions in the prisons of the United States – and especially the prisons in the State of California, which you govern.

There should be no doubt indefinite solitary confinement is torture. Yet in §700.2, the CDCR has devised an insidious program whereby they can leverage this torture to coerce validated SHU prisoners to submit to brainwashing in lieu of debriefing – the end result being qualitatively no different: "broken men" will be created by a new process.

The prisoncrats, as expected, seek to downplay and minimalize the success of the mass hunger strike that began on July 1, 2011, by its typical damage control tactic of spoon-feeding their spin to their Sacramento Bee stoogie who, like most of the public, believe their misleading and inaccurate assertions.
