Elvis Mutapcic loves a challenge.
So when Maximum Fighting Championship started promoting its Middleweight titleholder as the "World's Most Dangerous Middleweight" in advance of Mutapcic's upcoming title defense against Sam Alvey this Friday night (Feb. 15, 2013), he used it as motivation.
If you don't think he's one of the most dangerous middleweights in the world, he'd like to change your mind.
Mutapcic has looked ferocious in his young career thus far, destroying recent TUF Brazil middleweight winner Cezar Ferreira in just 25 seconds and stopping both of his MFC opponents, claiming the vacant MFC title after leg kicking Joseph Henle so hard in his last bout that he was forced to stop due to a knee injury.
"The King" spoke to MMAmania.com during a guest appearance on The Verbal Submission about not being a true champion until he defends against Alvey, improving on his title-winning performance and potentially becoming a free agent in this exclusive interview.
Check it out:
Brian Hemminger (MMAmania.com): How does it feel right now, defending a title compared to challenging for the vacant title before?
Elvis Mutapcic: They say you're not a true champion until you defend it. It feels good, but it feels the same. There hasn't been a whole lot of added pressure, I just don't consider myself the champ until I defend it.
Brian Hemminger (MMAmania.com): It had to feel great to have the title wrapped around your waist. Why do you think it is that fighters can't truly appreciate it until they defend the belt?
Elvis Mutapcic: Well, like you said, it's great getting the strap, but everybody can get lucky once. Defending it puts it out there that you actually are the champion and you reassure and show people that you're here and "this is mine."
Brian Hemminger (MMAmania.com): Let's start with your last fight. Even though you went out there and took care of business, winning the fight after landing some brutal leg kicks. Despite the stoppage victory, you actually weren't that happy with your last performance. Why is that?
Elvis Mutapcic: It was just the way I performed. I'm capable of a lot more than I showed out there in my last fight. I guess I was being hesitant and I wasn't closing the distance right. I guess I didn't feel very threatened by Henle's power. I didn't feel he had the knockout power to finish me and I don't think I performed great. I could have been more aggressive. I think he won the second round which shouldn't have happened. He was fighting smart.
Brian Hemminger (MMAmania.com): You won the title after injuring Henle's knee with a pretty brutal low kick. Would you have rather knocked him out cold with a head kick if you could go back in time?
Elvis Mutapcic: Absolutely. I never want to injure a contender for a long period of time. That's not how guys make money. If a guy is across the cage from me, I'll do what it takes to win the fight, but you never want to see that.
Brian Hemminger (MMAmania.com): You're facing Sam Alvey this Friday night, but MFC is promoting you as the World's Most Dangerous Middleweight. They have a case considering what you've been pulling off as of late, but do you feel like that adds a lot of extra pressure?
Elvis Mutapcic: Not at all. If MFC thinks I'm the world's most dangerous middleweight, that's great and all, but that's in their eyes. Until I prove so, I consider myself a middleweight champion. Instead, the title gives me motivation to push harder and it gives me another goal, to get people other than MFC to think that's the truth. A lot of guys get caught up in their hype but to me, I try to feed off of it and use every opportunity I can to motivate myself.
Brian Hemminger (MMAmania.com): You're facing another veteran of The Ultimate Fighter this Friday night. From what I've read, you actually tried out for The Ultimate Fighter twice in the past and didn't advance past the first round of screening which is pretty crazy considering the skills you possess. Now that you're taking these TUF alumni out, does that motivate you to beat them up and prove to the TUF executives that they never should have let you go in the first place?
Elvis Mutapcic: It definitely is a sweet feeling knowing I got passed up and now I get to show the world, "Look what I can do!" I'm not saying there isn't a lot of great fighters on the show or that have come off the show, but they look for personality and they're just trying to make a TV show. That's not me. The only part of me is that I'll fight my behind off whenever I step into the cage. It's definitely a sweet feeling to beat those guys.
Brian Hemminger (MMAmania.com): Sam Alvey fought on the last season of The Ultimate Fighter as a welterweight and didn't have the best results. He's had prior history of success in Bellator as a middleweight, defeating Karl Amoussou and giving Vitor Vianna a run for his money. Do you think size could be important in this fight?
Elvis Mutapcic: Absolutely not. Alvey cut a huge amount of weight to make welterweight and that's one of the reasons he didn't perform as everyone expected him to. I think he's more dangerous than what he showed on TUF. People might think this is an easier fight for me, but I'm not expecting anything but the best Sam Alvey, the guy who gave fighters hell in Bellator and I'd be disrespecting myself if I wasn't bracing for the best Sam Alvey. I'm expecting a guy that's even better than the one from Bellator. If not, I'd be a fool. Fighters improve every day.
I'm out there to do my job and that's to knock his head off his shoulders.

Hendricks says Andy Pettitte is pitching in 07 and interested in pitching beyond that. I think this makes Pettitte NYY bound. Astros GM Tim Purpura has stated they are hesitant to giving Pettitte a milti-year deal.
As an Astro fan I am fine with letting Andy go to NY after all of his comments leading up to this release.
Also, Andy is reportedly only interested in pitching in NY or Houston.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) – Russ Smith has not been stirring as much national attention as he did last season. It started when USA Today left him off its pre-season list of the 10 best players in the country. Strange call, but the buzz about Smith is not as powerful as it was last season.
I'm not sure I can explain it. But I'll try.
Smith's scoring average is down a bit – from 18.7 to 18.1 points per game. Louisville is still looking for its first signature win. Without the background of the Big East, the Cards are not kicking up as much national publicity in the American Athletic Conference as they did last season. No Syracuse. No Notre Dame. No Georgetown.
And there is always the media boredom factor. Russdiculous was a fresh story last season. Watch him eat a jumbo-sized stack of pancakes. Everybody wrote about Smith. But the national circus has moved on. Media folks seem fascinated by the fabulous freshmen this season.
That's not fair to Smith. His shooting percentages – both two- and three-point – have improved. He's delivering more assists. His turnover rate is about the same. He's still a very effective defender. Russ Smith is not the reason that Louisville has lost three games.
Should Smith be included in the national player of the year discussion?
Ken Pomeroy thinks so. Pomeroy ranks Smith seventh on his list of 10 national candidates.
Here is Pomeroy's Top 10:
1. Doug McDermott, Creighton – second nationally in scoring at 25.2.
2. Lamar Patterson, Pittsburgh – averaging 17.6 while making nearly 43 percent of his threes.
3. Nick Johnson, Arizona – top scorer (16.3) on the nation's top team.
4. Marcus Smart, Oklahoma State – scoring nearly 18 per game with 5.5 rebounds and 4.2 assists.
5. C. J. Fair, Syracuse – top scorer (17.1) for the nation's second best team.
6. Julius Randle, Kentucky – Mr. Double-Double – 16.9 ppg, 11.0 rpg.
7. Russ Smith, Louisville – you know his story.
8. DeAndre Kane, Iowa State – Playing better for the Cyclones than he did for Marshall.
9. Jabari Parker, Duke – Averaging 18.8 but has not scored more than 15 in his last five games.
10. JayVaughn Pinkston, Villanova – Leader of the Wildcats' return to the Top 10.

Toxic People
|Toxic People: Decontaminate Difficult People at Work without Using Weapons or Duct Tape
by Marsha Petrie Sue, John Wiley and Sons, 2007.
Toxic people at work not only bring themselves down, but also the people around them if allowed to. We can't control other peoples' actions or behaviors, but we can control our response to them. Marsha Sue identifies the six toxic roles in most workplaces. They are: the steamroller, the zipper lip, the backstabber, the know-it-all, the needy weenie and the whine and cheeser. The behavior types exhibited by these people include the bully, the clam, the psychopath, the arrogant expert, the wimp or worrywart and the chronic complainer.
Toxic People explores each category in-depth and helps us see what we need to do to keep communication open with them, but not buy into their issues. We need to remember that we can control three things: what I think, what I say and how I behave, but we can't control others. Toxic People trains us to recognize these people and teaches how to better deal with them. We can't let them bring us down or get in the way of accomplishing what is needed.
Marsha Sue shares many scenarios where toxic behavior caused problems for many businesses. The stories show us others interacting with toxic people and how they addressed the situations. By applying lessons learned in the scenarios we can rise above the toxic people, work with them when needed and become better at how we respond to these situations.
Chapters also address toxic people and their effects on your business. Do you let the behavior go on or do you need to get rid of the people bringing others down with their behavior? Areas addressed for toxic cleanup include: listening, controlling the uncontrollable, customer service, mental looting, toxic infections, and ruffled feathers.

Need a little extra cash? Check out your jewelry box. Fox 5 Consumer Reporter Laura Evans reports more people are trading in their jewels to pad their bank accounts.
Lee Siegal at CIRCA in Bethesda buys jewelry on the spot.
Siegal says: "We buy everything from gold chains to multimillion dollar estates."
Like an art dealer, he's trained to see the value 'and' the history in a piece of jewelry. "Every piece of jewelry tells a story... we listen to the stories."
And every person has a reason for wanting to get rid of theirs.
Valerie Brown was looking to buy new camera equipment and realized she just wasn't wearing much of her jewelry anymore.
"It made more sense to take the money and put it into something I'd use... I kept reading articles on gold and silver was at an all-time high."
"I came in with a watch one day... then I came back with more."
Among women, it's usually about getting rid of something that's no longer fashionable. While Siegal says, in the DC market, he commonly sees men trading in their watches. "Kind of like cars... driving the older model Mercedes… you want the newer model."
He says people used to sell off their jewelry at times of divorce, death or when in debt. But today he says it's become fashionable to depart with your diamonds: "Why hang onto something doing you no good, when you could have $ for vacation or holiday."
Valerie Brown calls it liberating: "Once you let go, that feels great! What else can I bring in!?"
And then... there's getting the check right there on the spot!
A couple tips if you want to sell your jewelry: Don't polish your jewelry. The patina usually adds to the price. Keep any papers and boxes that your jewelry in, it will usually make it more valuable. CIRCA buys jewelry from the public, but does not sell jewelry. CIRCA sells to a network of jewelry specialists around the world.

Well I guess you could say I have been taking some unplanned time off from the blog here to put some things in order. I've been working on my taxes, trying to de-stress, thinking about what I really want for my kids, for my family, for myself. Something strange kind of happened during all of this and I know that it happens to everyone…but this is the first time it has really happened to me. I have drawn a blank creatively. At least I seem to be having more trouble than usual that is. I want to create every day, but then I place myself in front of my desk and look at everything and suddenly all I can think about is all of the other problems I have going on or whatever is stressing me out at the moment and my desire to create seems to float away…
I don't like it! I don't like it one little bit! lol Making art is my creative outlet…my go to thing to make me feel better … my HAPPY PLACE.
It's hard when you can't visit your happy place, especially when you need it to keep you sane. Well this week I finally made myself go there and it was, to quote a dear sweet friend, "Lovely".
I made this layout. This is a shot the I snapped of my friend Rebecca and I while we were at CHA in January.
Here are a couple of close up shots
I used STAEDTLER watercolor pencils to color the Studio Calico Wood Veneer butterflies. Then I used a wet paintbrush to blend them and even brushed a little of the muted watercolor onto the patterned paper. I used my fingers to distress and pull up some of the paper. I traced the edges of the butterflies with a dark grey STAEDTLER Triplus Fineliner pen!
All the patterned papers are from Studio Calico and the cool purple crackled cardstock is from Core'dinations new Tim Holtz Kraft-Core Shattered Collection!
I've also started uploading some videos to Vine! I only have three up so far, but they are only 6 seconds in length, so it's great because you watch them quickly, hopefully gain some inspiration, and then get on with other things. You can find me under my name (April Derrick) if you want to follow me!
Creatively Yours,
Love the layout! I also like your Vine videos!
Beautiful job, April! I feel the same way every time I sit down to scrap. I'm sure you will find your creative groove again in no time!
Ive missed your arty inspiration, hope things have settled for you now!
I know exactly how that is… I often hit that creative wall and it sucks!
It usually doesn't last long which is a good thing. I adore your creativity though… so inspiring the way you work the inks and paints Fun page by the way!
Hi April –
I've followed your blog for a while – we used to chat on Scrap Friends a while back.
I hope you don't mind me asking this – your posts here, and some of your pins on Pinterest have been kind of sad sounding, like you're re-thinking your life, people letting you down, not feeling the same about people in your life, etc.
Are you ok? Is everything ok with hubby and kids?
Really not trying to be nosy, but your change in pins and postings really caught my attention and I wanted to make sure all was well. Feel free to email me if you feel more comfortable than responding here.

China Cup
This white mug with a floral design and gold banding was found in the newly located debris field. It may have been a passenger's personal effect, since it does not appear to be the china of White Star Line, the operators of the Titanic.
Maker of the Pot
This is a close up of the manufacturer's mark on the side of a copper cooking pot.
Copper Bowl
A decorative bowl is made of a copper alloy with traces of silver plate.
Research Ship
The vessel Mariner Sea carried the RMS Titanic, Inc. team to its seventh research and recovery mission to Titanic's wreck site.
Bathing the Artifacts
In the recovery effort, artifacts are immediately put into water after being removed from the basket they're brought up in. They are only removed from the water for a short time for cataloguing. Here, conservator Patty Miller places newly recovered artifacts in water, separating them by materials.
Watching the ROV
Stacey Savatsky, Collections Manager, and Don Angel, Collections Technician, monitor video screens while communicating with the operators of the robotic diver. RMS staff determined what artifacts were to be recovered based on feasibility, condition and what was in the existing Titanic collection.
ROV with Porthole
The ROV is hauled back on deck with a recovered porthole in its arms. The porthole was one of the first artifacts recovered.
Linoleum Tile
A linoleum Fleur de lis tile, used throughout second and third class public spaces, is in great shape.
Wall Sconce
This wall sconce was from the A la Carte Restaurant on board the ship. The sconce has decorative floral gilding at top, and a gilded floral and serpent motif at bottom. The electrical wiring was still intact at the back.
First-Class Ornament
This is an acanthus ornament from a first class headboard, made from a copper alloy.

From despair he fled, through tragedy he lived on, and journeyed to innocence.
His trajectory: the stars.His companion: a computer poised at the brink of sentience.
An unlikely friendship on a prototype spaceship at lightspeed towards Alpha Centauri, and redemption.
When Brett loses everything in a tragic accident, he gladly accepts an invitation to take part in a prototype speed-of-light trip to Alpha Centauri, knowing that he may not survive. His only companion is the ship's on-board computer, Jay. At first he finds Jay an annoyance but, as time passes, the two become friends. With the voyage drawing to a close, Jay develops a sense of self-awareness and a belief in God. When it becomes clear that they cannot both survive the return trip, one of them must make the ultimate sacrifice.
Alpha Redemption is published through Splashdown Books.
Alpha Revelation
Brett's story continues. . . .
Life on the Martian colony of Utopia has never been easy for Shor Larkin. Unable to fit in, he has no friends and no prospects. Plagued by memories he does not understand, it is only his dreams of working in the Space Program that keep his hopes alive. When even this is taken from him and he is assigned to work in the Maintenance department, he thinks life cannot possibly get any worse.
While fixing a hangar door, he stumbles upon a space ship lying neglected and forgotten. Then he starts receiving mysterious messages from someone trying to contact Brett. Shor's life is turned upside down when he realizes that the messages are coming from the ship and he is not who he thinks he is.
Alpha Revelation is due to be published through Splashdown Books in early 2013..
Set six million years in the future, in a universe filled with worlds colonized by early Earth explorers, Hanzet follows an unlikely band of heroes as they attempt to find the Parchment, the book believed to contain the answer to the ultimate question: what is the Meaning of Life?
The leader is Hanzet Terz, a genetically-modified assassin whose ice-cold killer instincts are starting to thaw. Sent to find the Parchment by the richest man in the Universe, Tooti Biscooti, she will stop at nothing to locate her prize. Tooti, however, has grown impatient and suspects Hanzet of treason. He sends his personal bodyguard and man-mountain, Jook Smithonowoo, to eliminate her. Jook, however, falls in love with Hanzet and helps her escape to the Amish planet, Bonnet, where they uncover Tooti's nefarious plans for Universal domination.
With the help of two Earthlings, Malcolm and Sylvia, and the renowned pioneer of speed-of-thought travel, Ernst Kombrink, Hanzet and Jook set about saving the Universe from Tooti's zombie army.
Hanzet is a comedic romp to the very edge of the universe and beyond. On the way it pokes fun at man's arrogance and his prideful determination to prove that God cannot possibly exist because, because, he just can't, okay!
Hanzet is slated for publication sometime in March 2103.

John C. Reynolds Doctoral Dissertation Award
Presented annually to the author of the outstanding doctoral dissertation in the area of Programming Languages. The award includes a prize of $1,000. The winner can choose to receive the award at ICFP, OOPSLA, POPL, or PLDI.
Nominations must be submitted to the secretary of SIGPLAN by January 5th 2014 to be considered for this year's award. The nominated dissertation must be available in an English language version to facilitate evaluation by the selection committee and have been awarded in the year 2013.
A nomination should consist of the following items:
- Name, address, phone number, and email address of the person making the nomination (the nominator).
- Name, address, phone number, and email address of the candidate for whom an award is recommended (the nominee).
- A short statement (200-500 words) explaining why the nominee deserves the award in question.
- Supporting statements from up to two people in addition to the nominator.
This award recognizes the contributions to computer science that John C. Reynolds made during his life. It is a renaming of the SIGPLAN Outstanding Doctoral Dissertation Award to encourage the clarity and rigor that Reynolds embodied and at the same time provide a reminder of Reynolds's legacy and what a difference a person can make in the field of programming language research.
Reynolds is renowned for his many technical contributions.
- Gedanken, a core untyped language mixing functional and imperative features, which influenced Scheme;
- Defunctionalization, which gives principled ways of constructing compilers;
- Polymorphic λ-calculus, a fundamental calculus of polymorphic functions, which influenced Java and C# generics;
- Syntactic control of interference, a resource-oriented type system, which prefigured linear logic;
- λ-calculus with subtypes, which is a foundational component of object-oriented type systems;
- Idealized Algol, a core typed language for mixing imperative and functional features, which prefigured monads in Haskell;
- Possible-world semantics for local state, a widely-used technique in programming language theory;
- Relational parametricity, a fundamental theory of data abstraction;
- Separation logic, an extension of Hoare logic to mutable data structures, which forms the basis of a new generation of proof tools.
Reynolds was an inspiration to all he worked with. He was well known for helping colleagues and students work through ideas. But his influence went well beyond his immediate circle; many researchers who never worked with Reynolds nevertheless built on his ideas.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The National Zoo says giant panda cub Bao Bao may soon start venturing outside for the first time with her mother.
The zoo said Monday that Bao Bao will have access to her mother Mei Xiang's yard this week beginning each day about 8 a.m.
Zookeepers say she'll have the option of going outside if the temperature is at least 35 degrees and it's not raining or snowing.
Animal keepers have "cub-proofed" the panda yards. They placed "collars" on trees to prevent Bao Bao from climbing too high. Some tree limbs have been trimmed. And the keepers spread out bales of hay to cushion any falls.
While she'll have the option of going outside, zookeepers say it may take several weeks before Bao Bao is venturing outside regularly.

I didnt want to complete his name in the title for fear of being banned. but i will do it here so if your eyes are not ready, well then turn off your omputer now.
Isaiah Thomas should be brought back to coach. lets face it, mike woodson isnt getting us to multiple championships. one, maybe. 2, possibly, but three, four, five six? no. Isaiah however is a players coach, he was a player and now he coaches players, theirfore their is a connection. dont you see?
now you may say. how could we just let Isaiah back after all he did to this franchise.
well he isnt gonna start off as coach, not just yet...
first we appoint him GM. this way, he could make the moves he'd like to make to put himself in a position to take over the actual roster.
next, after moving useless players such as jeffies, novak, bibby, and any1 else with a 2K rating under 60. Isaiah could then bring in veterans such as jason kidd, stephon marbury amd vince carter.
once he has the perfect team in place. he could ive woodson the boot, release that bum baron davis ( i mean he literally looks like a bum with that beard turiaf style). thomas could come back and lead the knicks to a championship.

Unconventional Imagery
Over the past couple of weeks, the GOP has made a point of noting that the Tampa stage set on which it will nominate Mitt Romney is inspired by the Prairie School architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright. Chris Hawthorne, writing smartly in the LA Times,
questions the wisdom
of the association, noting that Wright "was no standard-bearer for conservative values."
But of course most Americans don't know about Wright's dubious political (or even urbanistic) ideas. And in any case they would be hard pressed to find any serious trace of Wright in the GOP set, which is comprised of overlapping screens with faux-laminate frames. The idea is that this is Wrightian because it suggests the master's use of horizontal bands of wood. Perhaps that was the inspiration, but it is now so far from the source as to be irrelevant. More accurately, the multiple screens projecting propaganda images of a great leader is derived from Soviet Constructivism, but you can be absolutely positive that no one from the GOP will be making that connection this week.
Wright, however, is shorthand for American Greatness, so he is an easy signifier to glom onto, no matter the relevance. Also, some contrast was necessary with the Obama campaign, which in its own bit of cynicism, in 2008, proped itself in front of an enormous Classical set—no doubt to forestall any Republican suggestion that the candidate did not stand for "traditional values." As Hawthorne points out, Romney has now taken to criticising that set, associating it and thereby Obama with the Greek debt crisis.
Perhaps a more useful way to think about the architecture of the GOP convention would be to note that the Tampa Bay Times Forum, where it is being held, is a private arena buiilt with mostly tax dollars. Just something to keep in mind.

I'll go through each pick and give some thoughts -- NOT grades or evaluations -- on the player Seattle selected and other players Seattle may have considered.
Before getting into each selection, this draft looks like the maneuvering to get "younger (cheaper) and more athletic" that we expected in last season's draft. With only a late first round pick, one third, and then a bevy of late round picks, Seattle has left itself a good bit of financial flexibility. None of these picks should set the franchise back much should they fail to pan out. So, there's that. If I were a more speculative sort, I might suggest that Seattle is saving its pennies for the pro player market.
Anyway, onto the picks...
1 (25). James Carpenter, T, Alabama -- Carpenter strikes me as a similar talent to Holmgren-era RTs, like Floyd "Porkchop" Womack and Chris Terry. This pick may be rightly criticized for being extremely risk averse, but should anyone doubt the value of having above-the-median starters on the offensive line I would submit to them Seattle's 80 bazillion starting offensive line combinations in 2010.
Other considerations: Gabe Carimi, Jimmy Smith, Mark Ingram, Muhammad Wilkerson
Thoughts: It's easy to hammer this selection, but it's also easy to see why Seattle stayed away from these other players. From this group Jimmy Smith is the player Seattle is most likely to regret not taking. He has been compared to Chris McAllister, but was inconsistent in college and carries substantial risk of becoming an immaturity bust. I suspect Ingram may become the best player from this group, but I also suspect that Carroll/Schneider would never draft a first round RB. I also think Carroll/Schneider: a) like Carpenter's versatility over Carimi's, and b) viewed Wilkerson as a 3-4 end and didn't value that at 25th overall.
2 (75). John Moffitt, G, Wisconsin -- Moffitt is another player who projects as a quality NFL starter at either guard. I read that he has played some center as well.
Other considerations: William Rackley, Austin Pettis, Jurrell Casey, Leonard Hankerson, Jerrell Jernigan, Mason Foster
Thoughts: I really have no issues with this pick at all based on what came off the board in this area. Rang rated Rackley (pick #76 to J'Ville) a bit higher than Moffitt. None of these other players would threaten to start on day 1, nor is their upside substantially higher than Moffitt's if at all.
3 (99). K.J. Wright, LB, Mississippi State -- I'm really not sure what to think about this pick. I have read that Seattle sees Wright as a LEO end. I know he got offers from all of the middle-of-the pack (at the time) SEC schools, South Carolina, Mississippi, and Auburn, and he got regular burn as a freshman and then started 3 seasons. He was productive on some good MSU defenses though not highly decorated across three seasons as a starter (2nd team Pre-Season all-SEC in 2010), and he didn't test well at the combine (not sure about his pro day).
Other considerations: Christian Ballard, Clint Boling, Sam Acho
Thoughts: I might have preferred Ballard. Boling is a highly-regarded guard candidate, though I suspect he may have been overkill at this point. I also think the team likes Gibson more than many fans.
4 (107). Kris Durham, WR, Georgia -- I really have doubts about this pick. I wonder if Seattle had targeted Ballard only to see him selected at #106 (Minnesota). I have seen a good bit of Georgia over the last few seasons, and Durham has a nice size/speed combination. But, he was not very productive until his senior season. That's odd, because if anything he should have benefited from playing opposite A.J. Green. This is not an egregious reach in the fourth round, but I saw players go off the board in this area I would have preferred.
Other considerations: Quinton Carter, Greg Salas, Edmund Gates, Kendall Hunter
Thoughts: At the risk of being overly critical, I would have taken any of these "other considerations" players over Durham, even if Seattle likes his measurables. South Carolina's Tori Gurley has almost identical size and was to my mind a similar--if not better--week-to-week player, and he went undrafted. Kendall Hunter is a player I absolutely adore. He would have been very high-quality depth. Gates is a potential home run hitter. Obviously, I hope Durham comes in and tears it up. The kid has some tools. But, this was an odd selection to me.
5 (154). Richard Sherman, CB, Stanford -- Sherman's TD catch to beat Carroll's 41-point favorite Trojans in some ways marked the symbolic beginning of Carroll's journey to Seattle. He said on the radio that he started recruiting Sherman at 15 years old. So, he should know what he's getting. This gamble makes more sense to me than Durham. Sherman is inexperienced at corner, but he has tools and Carroll knows him. I just look at the kid and ask, "shouldn't Seattle consider moving him to safety?" I also think Sherman should come in contribute right away on special teams.
Other considerations: Niles Paul, Nathan Enderle, Chykie Brown
Thoughts: Enderle may have a been a worthwhile gamble on a QB, but he's not an overly impressive prospect. Brown has more experience at CB, but I think Sherman's upside is higher. Otherwise, meh. Oh, and I hate Niles Paul's game (disclaimer: Missouri fan). He's the ultimate tease (hands of stone), but he'll probably make a quality return man.
5 (156). Mark Legree, S, Appalachian State -- At this point everyone knows about the 22 interceptions at a quality FCS school. So, we know he at least has some coverage ability and some serious ball skills. He's a project but he clearly brings things to the table that are easy to like. It also helps that he has special teams experience.
Other considerations: same as above
Thoughts: What's not to like about this pick? This is a worthwhile gamble, particularly when looking at what came off the board in this area.
6 (173). Byron Maxwell, DB, Clemson -- He's got some size and speed (6'0/202 with 4.43 speed) and played special teams in college.
Other considerations: Tyrod Taylor, Ronald Johnson, Greg Jones, Allen Bradford, Mike Mohamed
Thoughts: I am a tad surprised, given what Schneider said in the pre-draft run up, that he didn't select a project QB. I actually think Taylor can be developed into a reasonable backup. Otherwise, interesting that Carroll passed over a couple Trojans.
7 (206). Lazarius Levingston, DT/DE, LSU -- A prospect as a 5-technique end.
7 (242). Malcolm Smith, OLB, USC -- A project LB that runs well.
Other considerations: <Shoulder shrug> Beauty is in the eye of the beholder at this point.
Thoughts: Levingston is an interesting backup to Red Bryant, a practice squad candidate. I thought they'd target Missouri's Andrew Gachkar in this part of the draft, though Smith is a comparable Will Herring clone.

MARTIN O'Neill believes midfield colt Jack Colback can battle his way into England contention over the next few years.
The Black Cats Academy graduate has been one of the biggest beneficiaries of the Sunderland revival under O'Neill, his confidence soaring to the point where the manager now sees him as one of his key men.
Colback was an unsung hero of the weekend defeat of QPR after delivering two starring displays in games against Liverpool and Everton. He did the latter under the watching guise of England caretaker chief Stuart Pearce, and O'Neill feels he would be good enough if the Three Lions call came.
"Why shouldn't he aim for that?" said the Sunderland boss – who was a left-footed midfielder during his own playing days.
"Over the next season I expect Jack Colback to really push on. I've got a lot of time for him as a player and a person. I think he is up to that challenge.
"He's got lovely control of the ball and left-footed players are infinitely more attractive to watch than right-footed ones.
"He's got a little deceptive turn, I think he should really start to believe he is good enough. I think he is getting that confidence. I left him out on Tuesday, but he was the first name on the team sheet at the weekend."
As pleased as O'Neill was with Colback's performance on Saturday, his place is still under threat with the return of skipper Lee Cattermole for tonight's FA Cup last-eight replay at home to Everton.
The Sunderland boss is yet to decide whether to hand Cattermole an immediate recall but his high-octane intensity would come in useful against a Toffees side that illustrated their ability on their
travels by beating in-form Swansea on Saturday.
"It's going to be hard on someone when I leave them out," he said. "David Vaughan has been excellent and, since he decided homesickness was no longer a problem, Craig Gardner's been terrific."
Cattermole's return comes with an admission from O'Neill that he is looking for disciplinary improvements from his captain.
It is a familiar refrain for Sunderland managers, and the Ulsterman's frustration with Cattermole's ill-discipline revealed itself when he chided the midfielder for his "silly sending-off" at St James' Park.
There has been no hairdryer treatment for Cattermole, though. O'Neill believes those improvements can only come from within. He said: "In the heat of the moment we can all say some daft things, but when emotions are running high, the referee has taken exception to what he has said about the way he has refereed the game.
"When you are sat in the dressing room after the game and you find out one of your players has been sent off, you're not happy. I wasn't pleased.
"I think he has to come to realise that to play is more important than to not play. How many times he plays, the person has to take responsibility for the number of games they miss (through suspension).
"He still picks up silly bookings, at Peterborough for example. We're leading 2-0, there are five minutes to go and the player goes past him so he fouls him. I could understand if it was 1-0 or 0-0.
"He admitted it was pretty stupid. You might think fine, but it's another booking and they add up and you find yourself suspended again."
Today is a big day for the Black Cats, with the club set to announce their financial figures this morning before competing for a Wembley FA Cup semi-final date in front of a 40,000-plus crowd at the Stadium of Light tonight.
O'Neill can sense something "special" in the mood on Wearside, which will afford his side terrific backing as they push for a last-four place for the first time in eight years.
"I think there's something pretty special about it when you get to this stage of the competition," he said.
"I think you can get caught up in the atmosphere, I don't think there is anything wrong with that. We want to try to get through, the fans have been excited about it."

What a difference a year makes. North Caddo Special Needs teacher Mary Irvin won $1,000 in our One Class At A Time check giveaway a year ago and from what we can see, it's truly helped her shape students' lives both inside and outside of the classroom.
From chopping up onions to cutting up pepperoni, just some of the simple tasks many take for granted but daily duties made simpler for these special needs kids because of funds from One Class At A Time.
"We purchased anything, things that we would use at home, we use here in our classroom" says Mary Irvin.
Irvin took her $1,000 check and bough her students daily tools to help them in the real world. Appliances, food, utensils, even toothpaste and other hygiene products to help teach them the basics of life skills.
There's even a greenhouse where students can develop a green thumb and learn to nurture plants. Irvin says that without the additional money, she would not have been able to give them better tools to help give them a better life.
"When a teacher has funds to, I'm sorry, I cry easy. It's a good cry."
"Are you alright?"
"I'm fine. I was not gonna do that."
Hugs from her students when she's crying shows you just how much this teacher means to her small class of six. A tight knit class that has become her extended family. North Caddo Principal Mabry Barker used to be a special needs teacher herself and says the One Class At A Time funds helped give this class simple opportunities for a more successful life.
"In a special needs class, the numbers are smaller and so you get to know them more intimately and you feel that sense of urgency because you know they only have a few years past high school that they'll have a public education option so when you have the extra funding and provide them additional experiences that impacts their lives and your opportunity as a teacher."
The One Class At A Time money also helped the kids attend the state Special Olympics in Baton Rouge for the first time. Money, that Irvin says not only teaches valuable lessons but has also given her kids more confidence.
Here's the 7 day forecast.

Picture this: You are standing on a "sidewalk." The weather is overcast, and you wonder whether it will suddenly erupt into a deluge or dissipate completely from the heat of the sun lurking behind the clouds.
Before you is a bustling street with all shapes and forms of transportation, moving quickly, heedless of any law that wouldn't be enforced. Those that go by on motorcycles — the most popular vehicle — are wearing bandanas and facial coverings to protect against the dust in the air. It may be a one-way street that you stand on, but don't think for a second that you shouldn't look both ways before crossing.
The buildings are low, nondescript structures that are partially hidden by the disorganized vegetation growing along the street. The street explodes with the exquisite colors of the women's clothing and the roadside temples. At the same time, the street is smothered by the darkness of the dirt and debris that pervades every clean corner.
The air smells of incense, which, thankfully, covers some of the other scents of the street. Beside you is a chai stand — giving off a sweet smell — with a group of young men around it, shouting to one another over the din of the street.
Your ears are punished by the incessant honking of horns and barking of stray dogs. The Muslim call to prayer sounds from a nearby mosque. A rickshaw driver is shouting to you, looking to make some extra money on a foreigner. It is true, you are just as foreign as everything you see.
Things seem to be progressing in an indifferent kind of way. You are being stared at by seemingly everyone with eyes, indifferent to however rude you may find it. You get bumped in the hip by the horn of a passing cow, indifferent to your presence as it lumbers down the street.
You are, had this been reality, me. And just like me, you are probably bewildered. Not overwhelmed, but definitely bewildered.
Since my vision is limited to the horizon, it is very easy for me to think that I am, in fact, on a different planet. I had seen the photos, read the books and watched the movies, but in the end, you have to be here to believe it. You have to live it to accept it. The latter is much easier said than done.
Before I had become accustomed to everything, it all seemed so very confusing. It was confusing how traffic managed to continue at the rate it does when there aren't any traffic signals or street signs. How a gaudy glass and steel shopping mall can exist within sight of homes held together by coconut fiber rope. How the same sun that shone on my life in Milford, shines on the spectacle before me, here, 7,500 miles away.
However, it is not confusing as to why a foreigner would want to travel to this place. Not confusing at all. The foods, the people, the streets and the excitement of everyday life is irresistible. That is what is overwhelming about India. That is why I am here.

Soda Or Pop? Which Do You Drink?
by Mark Memmott
Having grown up in "pop" country, gone to college in a "soda" city and lived for nearly 30 years in a place where the two cultures mix, this blogger is well aware that folks can get excited when they start debating about what to call carbonated beverages.
The discussion is bubbling again this morning thanks to the Morning Edition report from Allison Aubrey about a "soda revival" that's underway across the nation.
Maps have been made to show just where "pop" rules, "soda" dominates, and even where "Coke" is a generic moniker.
Let's see where Two-Way nation fits in:

ISLAMABAD: All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) leader Syed Ali Gilani has said the Kashmir dispute basically involves the Kashmiris' right to self-determination that has been denied by India for over six decades in violation of UN resolutions.He was talking at his residence in Srinagar on Tuesday to former prime minister of Azad Jammu and Kashmir Barrister Sultan Mehmood Chaudhry.
Mr Gilani said India had no moral justification to hold Jammu and Kashmir against the wishes of the Kashmiri people and resolution of the Kashmir dispute was imperative for the security of the region.
He appealed to the governments of Pakistan and Azad Jammu and Kashmir to raise the issue at the international level more vigorously.
Barrister Chaudhry said the people and governments of Pakistan and AJK were with their brethren in the occupied territory and would not leave them alone in this time of trial.—APP

I bought a Nexus 7 and with it came a very cheap offer for Norton Tablet Security. However, it had to be downloaded from the PC World site, not the Play store. I have activated it using the code given, but it has not sought my email or asked if I already have a Norton Account.
The box and instructions are Norton's own. The instructions for how to install it are on the Norton site.
I have been able to log in to Norton Management via my Norton Account on my PC, and by activating Anti-theft on my tablet, it shows in the list of computers that are protected, BUT ONLY FOR ANTI THEFT. Then it shows that i have 0 (zero) days remaining on my subscription (on the tablet I have 326 days).
Does it matter that it shows as nil days left in the subscription? Is there any way in which I can link them? What would happen if I bought Norton One that includes tablet security?
Also, if I try to go to https://antitheft.norton.com/ to view where my tablet is, it either does nothing or takes more than 10 minutes for the web page to show. I've tried this on two different PCs in three different browsers, all supposedly supported.
NB The link goes to https://antitheft.norton.com/login_ssologin.action
Chrome eventually gives a timeout message.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi Fellwalker
Welcome to the Norton Community Forums.
From what you have posted it seems like you have a retail version of
Norton Tablet Security. The retail version does not need to be registered
or linked to a Norton Account. When installing and activating with the
product key it simply registers the license and device with the Symantec
Norton Servers, so that license will always be linked to the device even after
a hard reset.
The free Norton Anti-Theft plugin for NTS is a little different where it will
show in Norton Management because it needs to link to a Norton Account
to activate and register on the Android device.
Do not worry about the subscription showing zero days as Nortons free
Anti-Theft Plugin will be active for the remaining days left on your NTS
There is no way that i know of to link the retail version of NTS to your Norton
Account. If NTS was purchased from the Norton Online Store being directly from
Norton that would be a different story as it will show in your Norton Account
as a product.
And when the Android security part of of Norton 1 or Norton 360 Multi-Device
being Norton Mobile Security is installed this will allow the device to be seen in
Norton Management. It will simply be one of the 5 available installs that Norton
1 and N360M-D users are entitled to install on Mac, PC and Android.
As for the NAT website Control Panel i cannot help with why you are having issues
as i just tried to log in to the NAT website and got directed to the Norton Mobile Security
websites Control Panel.
Perhaps it is just a temporary server issue that you are seeing and will resolve
it's self soon, try logging on from time to time to see if it gets any better.
Hope that info helps and keep us posted on how you go.
Hi Fellwalker
Just tried logging into the NAT Web Control Panel and all seems to
be fine now here .
Might have clicked on the wrong link in the Norton Apps drop down
Hope you have had better luck with logging into the NAT Web UI.

Re: How do I link my Norton Tablet Security from PCWorld to my main Norton Account?
Today, my tablet advised me of an update to Norton Tablet Security. It downloaded that, and then asked me to link it to my existing account. Now it shows up when I log in to my Norton Account. Someone must have been listening!
BUT, that broke the Norton Anti Theft, which I had to uninstall - I have now seen a later posting that explains this upgrade to within Norton Security.
On my tablet, if I go to https://antitheft.norton.com/find then it finds where my Nexus7 is. But if I go to the same page on my computer, it says my Nexus7 is offline. After another 5 minutes, by which time my tablet has turned itself off and gone to sleep, the PC has located the tablet.
10-11-2012 03:01 PM - edited 10-11-2012 03:03 PM
Hi Fellwalker
It sounds like you have had a successful update from Norton Tablet Security
to Norton Mobile Security 3.0 which no longer requires the Norton Anti-Theft
Plugin which you have removed, and no longer requires you to access the
Norton Anti-Theft website anymore, and also registers the product in your
Norton Account which is great.
Now to use the remote location feature for Norton Mobile Security 3.0 you have
to use the NMS website from this link or URL- https://mobilesecurity.norton.com/
Once logged in there with your Norton Account details select the device to
manage then you will have access to all of the NMS 3.0 web based Anti-Theft
remote features. :-)
As for the speed of locating your device, i guess it is good news that it does
eventually locate the device.;-)

Red Hat Seeks Defense Against Patent Lawsuit
In October 2007 IP Innovation filed a lawsuit against Novell and Red Hat for violation of certain virtual desktop patents. Red Hat is now asking the community for help to invalidate it.
IP Innovation LLC, a subsidiary of the California Acacia Technologies patent enforcement firm, had filed a claim in Texas court that Red Hat and Novell had violated three U.S. patents concerning a user interface with multiple workspaces. Red Hat is now seeking to counter the claim by providing proof that the technology had already been widespread at the time of the lawsuit, citing the "prior art" provision.
Red Hat has published information in its defense on the Post-Issue Peer to Patent pages of the Linux Defenders website. The patents had originated March 25, 1987, and addressed a "User interface with multiple workspaces for sharing display system objects" (full details of the lawsuit from Groklaw).
In a Fedora-announce-list e-mail, Red Hat's VP and counsel Rob Tiller claims that his company has "strong defenses in this lawsuit," but nevertheless seeks input from the FOSS community "to submit prior art relevant to the patents" to "reinforce" their defense.

We are immature in a lot of ways still. Even visuals have some maturing to do.
Also it works both ways. One deperately wishes the character art and textures weren't distractingly "ugly" in Bioshock ( despite the immersive environment art, story and sound design ) for instance.
The only games that comes to my mind that might be considered just about complete and equal in "all aspects of design would be psychonauts and portal 2. ( if not the best in each aspect of design... then certainly complete feeling. err.. even if porting issues creeped up with psychonauts. But to be fair- this shit is hard to do )
The "visuals" in the path look "up to the challenge"...
Nice to see the developers didn't have a reactionary negative take on visuals to balance out their beliefs.
There is a nasty trend lately of artists being apologetic of their craft ( If I hear another talented 3d artist spewing "but it's all bout the gameplay" ... )
A little more balls please instead for yer craft. Like when an opinion comes down along the lines of: "To much attention is given to the visuals" I think the correct response should be: "well u havn't seen nuthin yet"

Coming from a CG animation background I see how that fell into its own trap of "always better, pushing the envelope" and all that, categorizing pieces that are not in par with Hollywood productions as "dated and not up to current standards."
It hurts to see how games have fallen into the same trap, since they have "indulged" (for the lack of a better word) with the ideas of "graphics are everything." It takes but a small visit to Youtube to see how many self-proclaimed "hardcore gamers" will argue about games based on which one has the better graphics, or which engine is better, based obviously exclusively on the graphics, since we don't have access to all the game engines out there (I recall an argument some youtubers were having about how the internal use only Frostbite 2 was better than UE3 purely based on the frostbite 2 demo reel DICE showed at E3).
Another example is how gamers (as well as some developers) make claims on how we desperately need new consoles, while this sometimes can be translated as "we want better graphics." Then come those claims on "how the PC offers a better gaming experience," and the reasoning behind that is basically the latest graphic card can display better graphics than the current generation consoles. In the meantime, there's still a lot that can be tried with devices such as the Kinect to create different kind of experiences. Unfortunately many of those would end up being ignored or would become a part of a "niche" because Modern Warfare 3 looks so much better than *insert fictional very original kinect title here*
Throw the "videogames are art" argument into the mix and then you have a very interesting subject, where you can debate whether or not games are an artistic medium or not, what merits do they have (for example storytelling), and how much importance those elements have if games will most of the time be judged based on technical aspects, where graphics is one of the most -if not the most important- subject (from IGN: "In terms of aesthetics, F.E.A.R. 3 provides passable graphics that look slightly dated but still get the job done."), and then given a numeric score based on graphics, presentation, sound, and gameplay.
You never hear film critics say "In terms of aesthetics, Shutter Island provides passable visuals that look slightly dated but still get the job done." A filmmaker can decide to shoot in black and white and everything is fine because that was an "artistic choice." A game developer decides to use Final Fantasy VII style graphics, gamers and reviewers alike will yell "this looks too obsolete for current standards."
I for one think developers should start looking into games in a more creative ways and not just focus on make the most photorealistic games possible, and also not just give gamers "the best graphics money can buy" but make them think of games as something different. That's what many indies are doing, but the truth is indies will not change the way the world perceives games.
Now that I think about it, this comment was so long I should write a blog post about this here on Gamasutra. Maybe I'll do it tomorrow (Monday) since that's my Gamasutra blog-posting day.

Yes, tonight is the UFC's return to Fox with a card that should be great fun. But the biggest event in combat sports this weekend is absolutely Floyd Mayweather vs. Miguel Cotto live on HBO pay-per-view from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. I'll be here to bring you live round-by-round results (and fight-by-fight results for the undercard) tonight.
I have been covering the fight in depth at SBNation.com this week, so you can catch up on all the news from fight week in that Story Stream.
The pay-per-view starts at 9 p.m. ET with Cotto and Mayweather hitting the ring at roughly midnight.
The full PPV card looks like this:
WBA Junior Middleweight Championship: Miguel Cotto (c) vs. Floyd Mayweather
WBC Junior Middleweight Championship: Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (c) vs. "Sugar" Shane Mosley
Junior Welterweight Bout: Jessie Vargas vs. Steve Forbes
Junior Middleweight Bout: Deandre Latimore vs. Carlos Quintana
Make sure to check back at fight time and follow along with the action.
The PPV is now live. Results will be after the jump.
First fight up will be Deandre Latimore vs. Carlos Quintana.
Carlos Quintana outworked and landed hard shots throughout the fight, pulling off a minor upset by knocking out Latimore in the sixth round.
Jessie Vargas vs. Steve Forbes will be the next bout.
Jessie Vargas defeated heavy underdog Steve Forbes by unanimous decision (100-90, 97-93 and 98-92)
Saul "Canelo" Alvarez vs. "Sugar" Shane Mosley is up next.
Canelo Alvarez punished Mosley with huge power punches throughout the bout, winning the fight on the cards 119-109, 118-110 and 119-109.
The main event between Floyd Mayweather and Miguel Cotto will be up next and I'll have live round-by-round thoughts on that fight.
Round 1 - Mayweather likely wins the round after using a quick jab and lead right hand. But, Miguel did manage to land a combination against the ropes and wasn't blown out in the round.
Round 2 - Good round with Cotto trapping Floyd against the ropes, but Floyd likely did enough firing back to win the round. It's a good action fight through two rounds though.
Round 3 - The first round I saw for Cotto, although Mayweather still may have won it for the judges. But Cotto did good work against the ropes and landed a nice jab throughout the round.
Round 4 - Very good round for Mayweather as he landed power right hands to Cotto and stopped him from coming forward. Cotto did do a little damage and drew blood from Floyd's nose, but a clear Floyd round.
Round 5 - HBO gave the round to Cotto as he did good work but Mayweather still fought effectively and won the round in my eyes.
Round 6 - Jab from Cotto has blood flowing from Floyd's nose again and he is doing very good work. Floyd is chasing now, but this is a very competitive fight with Floyd actually looking a bit tired.
Round 7 - Floyd takes control again in my eyes with a nice right hand and jab. But Cotto is still there, working hard.
Round 8 - Cotto's best round fo the fight. Great work for Cotto, landing hard shots throughout the round.
Round 9 - Strong Mayweather round but Cotto has his moments as well. I have Floyd up 3 points to this point but it's been a great, great fight.
Round 10 - Good round that I had Cotto stealing on a late flurry to end the round making it a 2 point fight with 2 rounds left.
Round 11 - Good comeback round for Floyd. Cotto fought him well but Mayweather did enough to take the round with his right hand as Cotto faded a bit.
Round 12 - Mayweather hurts Cotto badly in the round but doesn't get the finish.
Official scores: Floyd Mayweather wins by scores of 117-111, 118-110 and 117-111

It is less than 90 days till "Pitchers & Catchers" report. What help will the Twins get from their minor league system in 2006? Will they have 5 rookies contributing in key roles next year? And can they get to the playoffs with that many rookies?
First, we are all hoping that Jason Kubel is ready for spring training, or if not, shortly thereafter. Second, barring a trade Scott Baker appears to be penciled into the rotation. Third, Francisco Liriano may also be a part of the rotation, if not when they break camp certainly a month later. Fourth, all indications are that Willie Eyre will be given a chance to be a member of the bullpen, and Fifth, should Luis Rodriguez still be considered a rookie? Will he be given a chance to win the second base job in spring training?
That is 5 rookies who are expected to contribute to a successful 2006 season. And it doesn't include Jason Bartlett who should be the everyday shortstop but can no longer be considered a rookie after being on the team for over half the season in 2005. Other candidates to help at some time in 2006 would include Alex Romero, Garrett Jones and Luis Maza.
Can these 5 rookies make the difference? I expect we won't know till next fall.

Backpacker Magazine – June 2008
Get maximum support, traction, and protection without wafflestomper weight or break-in. Welcome to the new breed of all-terrain, any-load boots.
Big-Load Support | Fast & Light | Best for Hard Miles | All-Day Comfort | Best Fit | Bargain
Zamberlan Baffin GT
Overall 4.5
The Baffin's full-grain nubuck upper, armorlike toe rand, and best-in-test traction make this boot our choice for the toughest terrain. The aggressive Vibram sole, with its large heel lugs, held tenaciously on loose and crumbly descents in California and Nevada, and it shed mud and snow instantly. Though the Baffin's ankle is cut a tad lower than the Scarpa and Lowa models (but equal to or higher than others here), the padded cuff and extra-supportive heel cup provide plenty of stability for loads up to 50 pounds. The Gore-Tex lining kept our feet dry, even when one tester got rain-lashed in an epic storm in Ohio's John Bryan State Park. Fit was spot-on for all foot types: "A snug heel and ankle, with plenty of forefoot room and no toe-crunching on the downhills," wrote one tester. The Italian craftsmanship and full-grain leather promise years of hard-duty service. The only bummer: Testers had to wrestle with the thick, stiff tongue, and the bulky logo patch interferes with lace cinching. Best for medium-volume men's feet; narrow to medium women's. $245; 3 lbs. 5 oz.; men's 8–12, 13; women's 6–10. (925) 398-8453; zamberlanstore.com.

Does anyone have any input on the difference between the Scarpa Barun GTX and the Scarpa Ladakh?
I'm looking to purchase a pair or either one of these and was wondering if anyone knew pros and cons when comparing them to each other.
Thanks in advance.
Still stupid all 6 of these boots have the same readers comments
I'm a size 12.5 and have a hard time finding boots. 12's fit good but can jam the toes on a down hill, 13 too loose and rub. Anybody make a narrow 13 or long 12 or how bout a nice 12.5?
Hey....just bought these boots from Zappos.com on advice of this site. I've worn them all day with a 2 mile walk through the neighborhood. I'm leaving for Utah's Zion National Park this Sunday and intend on wearing them.....so far...so good. It's funny as I've made plenty of fun of people who buy boots and wear them the next day out on the trail but the boots I had intended on wearing were bruising a toe. I guess will get a "come to Jesus" test in the coming week. I'll report back.
This is stupid, Hey Backpacker.com try reading your READERS COMMENTS section, if I went to buy a pair of boots by how well a reader found them I would have been screwed, for every single one of the boots listed (Big-Load Support | Fast & Light | Best for Hard Miles | All-Day Comfort | Best Fit | Bargain) they all have the same READERS COMMENTS. Good thing I have a great pair of boots from Asolo.
My size is 15-D. Where can I find some good hiking boots? Please send answer to: firstname.lastname@example.com
My comment was in regards to the Hi-Tec Peak II.
I actually just bought a pair about two weeks ago at the Army surplus store on Hampdon and Broadway in Denver.
They are great so far. I know boots pretty well as I am a Wilderness Ranger with the U.S. Forest Service. I go through a lot of boot. I am pretty impressed with these guys so far. The only gripe I have is they are not full grain leather all the way around. There is a seam near the instep. This was a problem on some boots I bought last year in Tibet because the seam ended up splitting after a lot of use.
We'll see.
But, they are available in the US!!! And for the price they are a great deal.
This looked like the right boot for me, then I learned that they are not available in my neck of the woods. I kinda feel cheated.
It might be nice if this shoe was offered in the US......
I found that this boot was available online only in the US in Maine....I would like to try this on at a store prior to my purchase. I have high arches and narrow feet, which severely limits the choices of shoes, much less boots, that I am able to wear. I suffered through 6.5 years in the USMC with gov't issued boots....if I have to buy them now, I would rather purchase something that was readily available to the general public....I would like to have reviews of readily available footware in the future.

An early morning fire destroyed the bar formally known as The Red Door on the corner of 18th Street and Buddy Holly Avenue.
Investigators have spent most of the day (Monday) inside sifting through the rubble trying to find out what was the cause of this fire.
The fire started around 4:40 Monday morning. Witnesses say firefighters were battling 10 foot flames and heavy smoke. "We initially went in to make an interior attack, but because of the type of construction of the building we were afraid it got into the roof. So we pulled our people out. And just a matter of minutes the roof came down on the structure," said Royce Ethridge, District Fire Chief.
Ethridge told us a Lubbock Power and Light employee was the only person hurt. The employee was shutting off electricity when the roof caved in. The man jumped from his cherry picker basket to avoid getting burned. Ethridge said the injured man was taken to University Medical Center where the employee was treated and released.
Firefighters were able to keep the fire from spreading to two other buildings, including Hub City Brewery. The brewery did have minor smoke damage. Don Caldwell, one of the owners of the brewery, showed up and was relieved to see the minor damage. "I'm thrilled to death nothing happened to the Hub City Brewery. But, you really hate to see something happen to a fellow businessman that's bad for them," said Caldwell.
According the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission or TABC, the Red Door shut it's doors three weeks ago due to a liquor law violation. Investigators are not calling this fire suspicious although they are curious as to how a building that's not in operation caught fire to begin with.

Our glossary excludes specific clinical and medical terms. If you cannot find the term you are looking for, please email us so that we can consider adding it to the glossary.
Some definitions and examples are based on those in the 'HTAi consumer and patient glossary', with thanks to Health Technology Assessment International.
The confidence interval (CI) is a way of expressing how certain we are about the findings from a study, using statistics. It gives a range of results that is likely to include the 'true' value for the population.
The CI is usually stated as '95% CI', which means that the range of values has a 95 in a 100 chance of including the 'true' value. For example, a study may state that 'based on our sample findings, we are 95% certain that the 'true' population blood pressure is not higher than 150 and not lower than 110'. In such a case the 95% CI would be 110 to 150.
A wide confidence interval indicates a lack of certainty about the true effect of the test or treatment - often because a small group of patients has been studied. A narrow confidence interval indicates a more precise estimate (for example, if a large number of patients have been studied).

A Pilgrim's Path Lyrics - Rage
[Music by: P. Wagner]
[Lyrics by: P. Wagner]
This journey started long ago
When will it end?
I don't know
My ship's been stranded many times
I've missed some chances,
Yes, I know
My tale is not 'bout a hero
Anyway, but the stone and the flute are
With me
A pilgrim's path
I was a boy when Arnie died.
He put it all in my hands
This was the time I had to leave
On this path with no release
sponsored linksThough I've been seeking for a lifetime
I don't know exactly what I'm searching for
A pilgrim's path
I have begun to settle down -
Still there's a hole in my life.
This cannot be the reason why I was born
Restless heart
Maybe that I'm not alone here,
What will I find if I leave to seek new shores?
A pilgrim's path
Give me one more chance
Please don't leave me here
Show me what I missed

Great gaming mouse under $50-60?
I currently have a Logitech M510 and I'm getting to the point of wanting to throw it out a window. Every time I try to play, it tends to lag or just not be responsive. I'm wondering if it has to do with my mousepad (all black) or the laser just sucks. I just replaced the batteries, too.
I havent been keeping track of new mouse tech lately, but I just want something that has optics that are really responsive and have no problems being used on any surface. Any good suggestions out there? I'd prefer simple black or dark grey mice. Those gaudy ones with all the lights and buttons are kinda gross. Any good mouse with 3-5 buttons is good enough :) thanks!
