I'm back in the da Ho for a couple weeks. I was coming out to take Tom's 3rd course – Object Evaluation which is geared towards how to evaluate conditions and be able to make educated decisions on when to jump and when not to jump.
Tom txt me a couple weeks ago and asked me to be an Assistant Instructor at his Fundamentals Course which I took back in March of this year and again in June. I accepted the offer immediately.
Whenever opportunities like this present themselves I usually commit to them first and then figure out how to make them happen afterwards. Finding out that he was willing to pay for my flight, give me a car, and let me stay at his house was a very nice surprise considering I said yes to it before knowing any of that.
I had a few conversations with my friends recently about them wanting to start traveling more often and I was recommending to them that they just book their flight and then they will figure everything else out. There is always going to be things that pop up to make you think the time isn't right but you have to overcome all that and just do what you want. This approach may not work for everyone but I find that having a little pressure on me always inspires me to get my shit together.
I'm excited for the opportunity to help out in any way I can. I'm not exactly sure what is going to be expected of me but I will embrace the challenge. I consider myself a full time student of everything I am involved in and I'm reminded of the quote 'when one teaches, two learn' and this will be no different.
It's going to be a long couple of weeks filled with moments of extreme stress, balanced with times of severe boredom.
It's at times like this where I am again humbled and feel extremely grateful to have a strong team to run my gyms for me and keep everything going. I can delegate the responsibilities that require my actual presence and handle everything else from my computer.
Life is great.
The video below is from a few jumps I did back in June at the bridge. We intentionally packed 180′s and practiced how to make different corrections to get out of them and land safely. In the jumps I passed one, failed one horribly, and failed another not so horribly. I'll be doing these drills again this week.
Practice Practice Practice!
Throwback Thursday
I don't think I've ever posted something on Throwback Thursday but recently I've made a few videos of past jumps I've made and this is close to the top of the list.
Nothing too crazy or technical happening in this one. Just a beautiful jump over the North Shore of Ohau. Myself and Sara were over there last December and I got one jump in during the week we were there.
I know that all the videos I post have far more meaning for myself than for anyone else but I hope you can all take a little of the peace I experience from this jump.
Full screen, headphones, and watch that shit in HD.
Flip Progress
Recently I've been getting in a decent 3 workouts a week but the structure of it is very scattered and I have no real direction in terms of trying to progress weights and times etc. My shoulder injury is def still there and anytime I've started to push it (multiple days in a row) it reminds me to slow down a little. I've settled into a one on one off type schedule for now. As long as I can stay somewhat healthy and can move around without issue I'll be fine.
I have however been consistently practicing flips since my landed my first one a couple weeks ago. New things seems to always pop up that peak my interest and flips are currently the flavor of the month. When I landed my first backflip a couple weeks ago I said to a couple of people "Now I feel like I can start learning stuff" – the backflip is kinda like the Squat of fitness. Without it you're pretty much fucked – It's basically the foundation to everything.
Last Friday I landed 9 in a row and I practiced them again Saturday and today (Monday). I'm going to keep refining it as I continue to learn new stuff and next on the list is the Gainer/Kick the Moon hybrid. I'm calling it that cause my version is a mix between both of them.
Last night I watched a bunch of tutorials on youtube and got enough to start trying it myself. As with trying anything for the first time I was afraid but after some self coaching and getting one solid attempt I was good to go.
I love being a student and learning new stuff. It never ends.
Near Strike – Rear View
This was the back angle of my helmet cam from a previous video I posted. Click the jumping vids tab at the top of the page to see em all. This angle really shows how close I came …. but I had the speed and skill to get out of it. I've watched the video probably 100 times and relived those seconds many more. I'm going to be headed back out to Idaho again shortly to continue my progression and I'm excited for the challenges to come.
Jumping off shit with a parachute on your back is really fucking fun but making the decision to do it comes with a lot of weight. Over the past six months I've received a lot of support and challenge from my decision to start BASE and I'm sure that will continue.
Making a conscious choice to participate in a sport that is considered to be the most dangerous activity a human being can participate in has a lot of consequences to think about. Family, friends, co-workers, business partners, clients – The list goes on and on of people that would be directly effected if something were to happen me. Taking all that into consideration, my desire to keep going is greater than my desire to stop. I ask myself all the time 'is it worth it?' and as long as I keep answering 'yes' I am going to continue to do it.
There are those who are close to me that will never support my choice, and others who always will, and the balance of that gives me the ability to look at things objectively and make my decisions from the heart. No matter what path you decide to go in life there will be those who are with you and those who are against you, so at the end of the day you may as well do what you want.
The Law of Lesser Pissers: if you're given the choice between pissing someone else off or pissing yourself off, choose, them. People come and go, but you're with you for the whole trip…and it's your life. – Dr John Demartini Now, I'm not saying that my intention is to hurt, or piss anyone off through my actions BUT I have things that I want to accomplish in my life and I'm not going to let obligation or social idealisms dictate my destiny. I'm going to make my own path and deal with the consequences of my actions as they unfold.
I'm happy to say that I've been able to maintain not using my computer or listening to podcasts/music when going to sleep for over 2 weeks now. It's still only been a couple of weeks and I still have to consciously remind myself to not bring my computer into bed but its getting more and more consistent and will be automatic over time.
I just got back from Amsterdam with my brothers.
The last time we all hung out together was 7 years ago at my going away party in Ireland. All our worlds are completely different now but after an hour with each other it was like we were all 16 again. I didn't realize how much I miss all of them until we hung out with each other.
We've somewhat stayed in touch over the years but it was great to be able to sit down with a beer and reconnect with everyone in person. I made a solid effort to remain present over the 4 days and was constantly reminding myself that it may be another 7 years before I see them all again.
Morgan put together the edit below which has a bunch of tricks from our skating years which is how we all know each other and was again cool to relive some of those moments.
Rain sleet snow – Mix Edit from 4courseaudio on Vimeo.
Hoping it won't be too long till we all reconnect again.
In other news I landed my first standing backflip last week! I've been going around for years saying that it was a life goal of mine but I can probably count on two hands the amount of days I actually spent practicing so I was never really committed till recently. Either way I'm psyched to begin learning some more stuff and progressing in that area.
Also got this wall flip. I used to be able to do them years ago but never got one as clean as this one. #alwayslearning
Of course then I wanted to put them both together which turned into A LOT of frustration.
Prob took me an hour to land this over 2 sessions. I got frustrated to the point of quitting but couldn't stop thinking about it so I went back later in the day.
Be relentless in whatever you are pursuing!

Summer Glau is Darkly Sexy in her latest THE CAPE Pictures| December 29, 2010 at 3:55 PM EST
In The Cape, stunning Summer Glau (Firefly, Dollhouse, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles) plays the aptly named Orwell. (George Orwell was the pen name for Eric Arthur Blair, known best for writing 1984 and Animal Farm.)
What do we know about Orwell on The Cape? If you're first instinct is to do some research (much like me) then you might actually be similar to the character. Orwell is an investigative blogger! Dun dun dun. She teams up with The Cape to help fight the war on crime, corruption and general evilness in Palm City. Sounds like a fun (though dangerous) gig, doesn't it? Orwell reminds me of Lois Lane, except I don't think Lois Lane was quite this badass. (Sorry, superhero purists! I can literally hear Jim Parsons as Sheldon Cooper of The Big Bang Theory now lecturing me on how it is blasphemy to type such atrocities. Blah blah!)
Trivia: Why else is The Big Bang Theory relevant to this post? That's right, you smarty – Summer Glau once guest starred in an episode as herself, a sci-fi nerd's dream girl. You don't have to be a sci-fi fantastic to think Glau is awesome, though.

If you're anywhere near Vegas, you know it can loud—this week, especially. The 2013 International Consumer Electronics Show is in full swing, with tons of manufacturers looking to make noise about 2013 products. Some make better noises than others, though.
Meridian Audio just introduced its new DSP640 Digital Active In-wall Loudspeaker. The speaker is part of a demo that includes the DSP520 and DSW500 subwoofer.
The speaker features a DSP design, which promises to belt out sound equivalent to a speaker eight times this size. That enclosure is nice and slim, making it perfect for an in-wall installation. It also has the drivers mounted into the front extrusion of the enclosure, with a separate upper case to hold the DSP, digital audio converters and the amplifier for each driver.
Designed to mount horizontally or vertically, other features include Meridian's Wide Range Driver technology, a back-box and frame system, and a unique DSP setting so the unit can be mounted behind fabric or even a projection screen.
All of Meridian's DSP in-wall speakers are designed to make it easy to add a zone. Just mount the Media Source 200 on the back of the speakers, and it can be operated from any Digital Media System controller, such as the Core Control App for iPad.
Meridian will start selling the DSP520 this month, with an MSRP of $5,000 each. The DSP640 will follow in Feburary, priced at $7,500 each. Meridian will be in Vegas all week hosting that demo in the Venetian. The 2013 International CES runs from January 8-11, 2013.

Claire Danes
One of the most dramatic hairstyles of the night belonged to Claire Danes, who appeared to have chopped her hair into a short bob before the awards ceremony. As it turns out, stylist Peter Butler created a faux bob for the Homeland actress and Outstanding Lead Actress In A Drama Series winner.
To get the look, Butler curled her hair inward and pinned the ends near the nape of her neck. For the sleek shine, he used plenty of serum throughout.

Authorities have identified the three victims of a three-vehicle crash on the Veterans Memorial Bridge in South Omaha Thursday.
The crash happened about 5 p.m.
Authorities say a pick-up truck driven by 18-year-old Andrea Garcia-Madrid crossed over the median into oncoming eastbound traffic, clipped a Jeep and then went head-on into a semi.
Garcia-Madrid was taken to the Nebraska Medical Center and treated for a broken pelvis, fractured femur, dislocated hip, and a lacerated spleen. The injuries are severe but not believed to be life-threatening.
The driver of the Jeep, 50-year-old Angela Clark, was treated for back pain at CHI Health Creighton University Medical Center ER and released.
The driver of the Semi, 46-year-old Carl Deal of Council Bluffs, complained of shoulder pain and was transported, treated and released from CHI Health Creighton University Medical Center ER.
The crash shut down eastbound traffic into Iowa while the injured were attended and police pieced together what happened.
The crash remains under investigation.

And sure enough this extension did not meet all of my needs when I first tried it, but I was blown away with how responsive the support is and how quickly they have incorporated my requests into new features in subsequent releases.
So while it still doesn't meet 100% of what I want, it meets much more than it did just 3 short months ago, and I'm confident they will close the gap for me in subsequent releases (which are happening very quickly).
I've given this an excellent rating because they are constantly improving this extension so that users are able to customise it more to their specific needs.
And their support is quick and very helpful. I have tried a couple other extensions and this is the one I'm betting on.
bypgales, November 21, 2012
What's more is that the product is easy to implement; it really is a code snippet placed in files (it's easier to learn this than you might think) and presto it works.
What's even more is their support is world class. They seem to have several guys named Alex (couldn't possibly be the same guy - smile) who responds in a very timely way and goes above and beyond to get things working for you.
I don't give five stars very easily, but this really deserves it.
bypgales, October 9, 2012
And I thought it looked quite good out of the box on the font-end as well.
Romano, the support person that responded to me, was very quick in responding to the issues that I did have and he was able to help me figure out how to get around a couple obstacles that came up for me.
It also a good sign that the support team is continuing to develop the app and they seem to be listening to their users about what the next step is.
I definitely recommend this and if you do consider it, take the time to try out the demos on the backend and front end so that you can be sure it's what you want.

Excellent product but for a handheld device they could have made it with universal games instead of zoning them and give a charger that works everywhere in terms of voltage - it is a really limiting when you travel to Europe for example where the electrical plugs deliver 240V...
It was a great buy on cyber=monday. If 3D will not be the feature, you are going to use much, I would advise to get rather the 2DS. As compared to 2DS, the XL screen is huge. I wish nintendo could have used a 332 pip res.
I purchased the 3ds xl for Christmas for my 10 year old. He currently has the old 3ds. He absolutely " loves" the bigger screen and playing his games is a lot more enjoyable. The only reason why I waited so long to purchase the new 3ds xl is that I believed that it would be clunkier to hold in his hands. I wished now that I did not listen to those who gave their wrong opinions. Anyway, my son has not put his 3ds xl down only when he goes to bed.
10 thumbs up !!!!
All I can say is wow it is the best Christmas gift ever I have ever gotten the games are so much more fun and I never get bored of it
It is absolutely incredible!!!!!
I got my 3DS in July and I LOVE it! Lot of fun! Many great games! I really get bored with my iPhone games at times, and that's where I can just pick up my 3DS and play a game of Animal Crossing, Mario Kart, etc.! .. What I would say I dislike, though, is the 3D.. At times, it can work, but other times it doesn't work and will hurt my eyes.. Other than that, great device!
My wife and i (Both Adults) purchased 3ds XLs and i will never need another handheld again this is the best device and the 3d works perfect games are awesome
This unit is adult owned and played. Have had the system about 3 weeks now and love it. I do find the 3D a bit eye-crossing at times, but the larger screen is wonderful. Looking forward to Animal Crossing New Leaf, already pre-ordered the game and Prima guide. Great for kids and adults alike.
The extra screen size is excellent. I don't get to do a lot of console gaming anymore due to kids, and I find mobile gaming just not as in-depth as I need. Enter the Nintendo DS XL. Lots of good high quality games at a decent price, and the extra screen size makes games absolutely beautiful. It's definitely worth the upgrade from a normal 3DS or DS. Plus I can share it with my kids too, but it's really dad and mom's gaming machine.
First gaming system for my 7yr old. He loves it. Seems to have great battery life. Prefers the NON 3D mode. Easier to watch and play.
3ds xl is amazing. They fixed up so much stuff.

JPM absolute fund looks for IFA traction
JP Morgan Asset Management has launched a global equity absolute alpha fund as its first global equities long/short Oeic in the absolute return sector.
The global Ucits III long/ short fund will be managed by Gary Clarke and will look to beat the Libor one-month index by 3 to 5 per cent over a 12-month period.
Annual management charge is 1.25 per cent, with a 10 per cent performance fee. The fund will sit in the absolute return sector. JPM launched the Highbridge statistical market-neutral Oeic into the absolute return sector last year.
Head of UK retail sales Jasper Berens says: "I think the media coverage of absolute return funds has been incorrect and that they will have a big future within people's portfolios. We think it will continue to grow and that a product of this ilk will gain traction in the IFA market."
Chelsea Financial Services managing director Darius McDermott says: "JPM has already done well with its Highbridge suite of funds and this launch makes sense in terms of broadening its offering in the absolute return sector."

Wild Mustangs Buck Old Paradigms
When I slow down and really pay attention I can see and feel that we are living in extraordinary times. Through this amazing platform, our voices were brought to the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development!
Yes, there are so many challenges and crises happening, and the way I see it, these are our very opportunities to transcend. Just as our personal wounds give us access to our deepest selves, our collective challenges are the doorways into our higher consciousness.
We are the ones now who can transform the old paradigms. Through technology, our voices are being heard. We are bringing a new way of thinking, and once we begin to value our open, receptive, intuitive, cooperative, empathic and heart-felt knowing, the world will follow.
The more we become open to receiving our innate wisdoms, the more the world opens to hear our voice.
We are being invited to the conversation. Let's arrive on wild mustangs, true to our wild, organic selves!

McNabb Says Offense Is Coming Along; Practice ObservationsPosted by on August 24, 2011 – 3:41 pm
Vikings QB Donovan McNabb met with reporters after practice on Wednesday, just three days before the Vikings suit up for preseason game #3. Typically the third preseason game is when starters see the most playing time, so Saturday night's contest against the Dallas Cowboys should give us a pretty good glimpse into just how much progress the Vikings offense has made.
Remember, coming off a lockout that canceled all Organized Team Activities (OTAs) and minicamps in addition to a new Offensive Coordinator and starting QB has the Vikings a bit behind the 8 ball. But the Vikings won't use that as an excuse for poor play, largely because many other teams are enduring the same or similar disadvantages and also because there's a sense among many on this team that the offense is making strides.
"We're getting very close, we're getting very close," McNabb said about the chemistry developing between himself and the receivers. "I'm excited with where we're at right now and those guys kind of have a feel of where I may place the ball [when] they come out of their routes. I have a feel of how they're going to come out of their routes.
"But again, each game is different and it's a learning process for all of us and hopefully once the whistle blows come Game One we're right where we want to be."
That's the goal – to be ready to go once Week 1 rolls around and then to continue getting better from that point forward. It seemed as if the Vikings offense made a step forward in that effort on Wednesday. During one full team period of practice, I was standing just behind Musgrave and I heard him complement the Vikings offense a number of times on their spacing and timing.
"We had a good day today," Vikings Head Coach Leslie Frazier said after practice, speaking about his entire team. "I really believe we got better in some areas. We worked a little bit of short yardage, some goal line and some two-minute. Great weather again for us to practice in, which really helps a lot as you're trying to mold the team and get the team ready for our third preseason game.
"I think we're moving in the right direction," Frazier continued. "This game on [Thursday] night will give us a better indication of where we are and how far we have to go to be ready for our first regular season game."
Here are a few observations from practice…
– The Vikings worked for roughly two hours on Wednesday in full pads and in warm, breezy conditions.
– Vikings TE Visanthe Shiancoe, who returned to practice from a hamstring injury on Tuesday, was not out on the field taking part in practice on Wednesday. Frazier said Shiancoe incurred a setback, but said it was not a major setback. The Vikings ultimately decided to hold him back on Wednesday rather than risk further injury.
– With Shiancoe on the sidelines, rookie TE Kyle Rudolph saw a few more reps. He's had a tremendous training camp so far and he was very good on Wednesday. The one aspect of Rudolph's game that I notice the most is how sure-handed he is; you rarely, if ever, see him take his eye off the ball before he secures it and moves upfield. He also rarely traps the football against his body to catch it.
– There was some pretty good action in the goal line portion of Wednesday's practice. On three straight plays, the Vikings defense made stops against the scout team. On the first play, DT Letroy Guion penetrated and stopped a run in the backfield. On the second play, the offense used a play-action fake to try and fool the defense but LB Erin Henderson did not bite and was able to tip the pass and cause an incompletion. On the third and final play of the series, DT Christian Ballard and CB Cedric Griffin combined to stop a run short of the goal line.
– WR Percy Harvin made the play of the day on a pass from rookie QB Christian Ponder. Harvin was flying down the left sideline and was able to catch up to and dive under a pass that Ponder had launched downfield. Harvin came up with the ball, secured it all the way to the ground and then quickly got to his feet and completed the play by dashing to the endzone. This was one of the plays when Musgrave complemented Ponder and Harvin on "great timing." In fact, Musgrave made the "great timing" comment as Ponder's pass was in the air and about 75% of the way to where Harvin ended up making the catch.

come on fans let get it on about this and see who's right I'm making a bold prediction, I say bb will have a breakout season and will be the #1 reciever this yr for the team and him and mc Nabb will become the talk of the nfl.. Just like favre had his favorate and most qb's do also bb will be Mc Nabb's and he will show he wants to be a true player on this team. Remember how AP was fumble prone and only fumbled last yr 1 thine, this is how we will see bb yes he will drop a couple all recievers do but he will perform way beyond what most believe. I will get a lot of negitive responses from this but bring it on.

I just came across some troubling news concerning Kevin Williams. His doctor visit reported that he has plantar fasciitis. I looked it up, and learned that this is a foot problem that most commonly causes pain and stiffness in the bottom of the heel. Kevin was optomistic about the issue, and stated that he plans to be back on the field in time for the regular season. However the webpage I found stated that "treatment can last from several months to 2 years before symptoms get better," indicating that the average person gets better after about 9-months.
One of the proposed cures for the problem? STEROIDS!
By Parody on Aug 24, 2011 | Reply
The site didn't give me an idea of how severe the condition is, so maybe if Kevin rests a few weeks, he'll be healed up enough to fight through a game. But it's probably better for his long term health if he refrains from aggravating it until it's completely healed.

Vikings fan1955- You can toot the BB horn all you want too… but ain't no music comin out. Harvin will continue to be our #1 go to guy. Shancoe or Rudoplh will be #2 because McNabb has always been able to find his TE. Musgraves system is TE friendly (Rudolph is leading the team in preseason catches).
I will be bold enough to predict that once agian this year AP will have more catches and recieving yards than BB. The sad thing is, AP doesn't play much on 3rd downs. Sorry, I am just being real. If you had the choice to get the b@ll in the hands of Harvin, Shancoe, Rudolph, AP, Jenkins or Berrian… who do you think the coaches and McNabb will focus on. Berrian's best years in the NFL were with teams who had no other weapons.

I get what the nay sayer's are saying but we all know a new qb can make a big difference in a reciever and until favre rice was average and was his main target. We will see who's right I'm on the limb but when bb shows his worth there will be a few of us that will get ur were rights lol.

@Rocksalt – Let's give them the benefit of the doubt. A few people must see something in Berrian, or he wouldn't remain an uncontested player on the WR depth chart. I expect to see something good from him this week. If not, it's not the end of the world, but it will be a very tough sale to say keep Berrian and cut Arceneaux, Camarillo &/or Jaymar at that point. If he still is spewing out the schtank once we start the season against the Chargers, I will be an eager leader of the Bîtching to Banish Bernard Berrian's Bästardly Butterfingers Bandwagon.

I know everyone has an opinion on Berrian (especially Don!) but without a good O-line, you don't have time to air the ball out or make holes for AP. This is what I think killed us last year(and year before in playoffs vs. Saints).

Well, Parody, considering that 2010 was a complete meltdown of the whole team and stadium, I would give BB the benefit of the doubt through at least the first half of this season– if by after the bye, he has done nothing, then I will agree it is time to replace him.
Rocksalt, this is not the place for this conversation, as it is way beyond the scope of a football blog– let it rest– let me just finish that what you see is not reality.

What makes a true fan? As I see it you can be objective on the weakness of your team, but still cheer them on game day. I think there are valid concerns here about some of the players. I don't think that make or not make them a true fan. I think if you were a fan through the Herschel Walker trade years you are probably a true fan. lol. Take care everyone.

Yes, new QBs can make all the difference in the world and I hope for the best for Mr. Berrian. I do appreciate your optimism and energy.

What I like about Berrian is he seems like a professional and is not always crying for the b@ll.
I respect Berrian and I think he helps open things up in the middle for guys like Harvin and Shank. He doesn't have to catch p@sses to help this team win.
But because we have great playmakers like Harvin, AP, Shank and Rudolph, I think it makes it that much harder for Berrian to get his catches. Berrian can only play one of the 3 WR spots, and is really only a deep threat type of guy. With that said, Aromashadu and Jaymar are faster, can play all the WR spots, and have look good in camp.
Berrian took a big pay cut to stay a Viking, so I hope the stars lineup for him and he has a great year!

Whether you love or loathe BB, one thing I hope we gain as a benefit of the veteran McNabb. I felt one of the benefits of our great 09 season was that Favre spread the ball around to so many receivers. He must have had time to get to his second and third progressions. Rodgers spread the ball around well to Packer's receivers last season. It is hard for defenses to focus on one or two primary receivers when your 3rd receiver is killing them. If we spread it around, BB and others will look a lot better, and we'll all be right, that we chose to be Viking fans!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bernard Berrian was the leading receiver in the NFC championship game against the saints with 9 receptions for 102 yards, and I recall one that was for a very key third down conversion. How is that for reality?

@ viking fan since 1955…i agree with Carl K. when he states that BB best yrs came with no other great WRs this is very true! The yr b4 he was a Viking with the bears and his 1st yr as a viking were his 2 best seasons and they were not all pro seasons they were a good #2 Wr numbers but he was the bears and our #1 wr those yrs so even his best yrs were just ok and i dont see him getting close to those numbers this yr. I do think Mcnabb will be better for BB than Farve was but he will still be well…..BB I prdict that jenkins will be our top Wr this yr with yrs and Harvin with catches and that b4 mid season BB will b our 5th Wr and only come in on % wide out plays or hail marys lol.

I think jenkins is a great blocker and will see alot of playing time in this offense. we will need recievers not affraid to block for tight ends and running backs who need that last block that springs them free for the long run. I have seen him make many great blocks including one for Kliensausers big gainer last saturday. Who ever starts in this reciever group need to be versitle to do both catch and block. A blocker like Hines Ward is big on a offense. No one on our roster compares as of yet but will be a big key to what this team is able to do with this type of system.
By Parody on Aug 24, 2011 | Reply
@Kenny – I disagree a bit. Harvin will be the leader in yards and receptions. Jenkins might get close, and will likely be the leader in yards per catch, but he won't beat out Harvin. If Berrian and Jenkins can each get around 500 yards or so, our overall receiving corps will be fine. If McNabb spreads the ball well, defenses will have at least 7 regular receivers to worry about throughout the game, including 3 WR, 2 TE, and 2 RB. The worst guy out of this group should get about 300 yards.
By Kenny on Aug 24, 2011 | Reply
Also i really hope the vikes develop Ponder. I like the Mcnabb pick up and i think Mcnabb will have his best yr or close to it but he is under a 1 yr contract. We had Farve on a 1yr with option for 2nd yr and then had to beg him to come play the 2nd yr all because he had such a great 1st season with us and i jus hope that after Mcnabb has his great season that we dont decide to resign him again cause it curbs the development of Both Ponder and Webb.
We dont hardly develop young Qbs . We always fall into the temptation of signing a vet an old vet lol Jeff George Warren Moon Randell Cunningham ( by the way Randell Cunningham is my all time fav player!) but i know of only Culpepper that was drafted and developed and alllow to start, Does any1 else know of others?????
If we didnt trade Sage Rosenfels to giants last yr he would have been our solid vet QB starting while Ponder and Webb develop and he would have been cheaper than the 6 million 1 yr deal we did with Mcnabb. which would had left vikes with more money to sign possible Saftey or OL free agent but lets not look at would of should of..im happy with Mcnabb

Kenny – We signed Favre to a 2-year deal. He just didn't want to come to training camp, so he pretended to waffle over the decision to retire during the majority of August and, having no faith in TJack, Brad Childress fell for Favre's ruse and bribed him with a bigger contract to make sure he didn't retire.
We all know how well that decision went…

Tsk Tsk, Parody, you are starting to have the reading skills of some of the other bloggers. I never thought I would say that about you, but then again there is a lot of blogging going on for a change. Maybe you misread when I mentioned the 98 team a few times with their 15-1 record, and I mentioned Frazier's Bears Team with their 15-1 record, but I never said we would match that this year. That would be a bit much to predict.

I agree with the QB stop gap. There were many draft sites having us take Locker. I just didn't like what I saw. When the Vikes took Ponder at 12, I was not expecting that! But I actually liked the choice. I think he can be good in time.

I have a feeling that both Jenkins and Berrian will max out at about 3-catches per game, which leaves them at 48-catches for the season. Even at 20-yards per catch, they still fall short of the thousand yard mark, which I believe Harvin will cross this season.

I think with two speedsters on the team (Jenkins and Berrian) we won't be seeing Harvin lining up Opposite either of them very often this year. I'd be willing to bet that he takes the slot position inside of whichever speedster is on the field with him.
The only time I can really forsee Harvin seeing the opposite side of the field is during a play where he's in motion.

We could be taking a chance with Berrian. Hopefully it is because the Vikings coaches have seen something in him that indicates a comeback season from him.
Like Titus said he has had big games in the past. Even last year he had 9 catches for about 85 yards against the Cardinals.
We just have to hope the coaches are making the right decisions, if they don't, then they will be "outta here."

Happy to help Kenny. It's a common problem that I've tried to explain to a lot of different people, and that I've lobbied Mike to address on the blog one way or another. Unfortunately, regardless of the suggestions I provide, they all appear to go ignored. The most I was ever able to accomplish was to convince Mike to remove ass from the list so that we can type pass. Because of that, I don't know why other common football words are still ignored.

I'm glad you are predicting 12-4 or 13-3 for the season. My brother is probably predicting 16-0 and a win in the Super Bowl. LOL
This time of year every team is a champion.
I'm just hoping we win some games and make the playoffs.

We plan on running alot of 2 TE sets so im not sure how many times we will see 3 or more Wrs of field at same time. My bad for using wrong term lol

The Vikes seem to like South Carolina WRs. Troy Williamson to replace Moss. Sidney Rice selected in the second round. I thought for sure they would go for another USC WR (Tori Gurley)
They didn't but Alshon Jeffery is coming up next draft…

QUESTIONABLE DEPTH IN SOME POSITIONS. WE WILL HAVE A VERY HARD TIME DEFENDING AGAINST THE QUALITY OFFENSES – LIKE GB's – WHO CAN SPREAD OUT 4 QUALITY WR's ALONG WITH A QUALITY TE. THOSE TEAMS ALSO HAVE EXCELLENT BLITZ PICK-UP DISCIPLINE & I FEAR THEY CAN PICK US APART. WATCH OUT FOR DALLAS THIS WEEK.

I think with the comments of the Vikes going 12-4 and 13-3 this year we need to step back and look at where we really are. Optimism this time of year is all over the NFL, but if you put the Viking's situation into perspective, you'll conclude that we are a .500 team at best. With a new coaching staff, (basically) and schemes, a new QB, WR's still trying to find their spots and our foes in the NFC North gaining strength, I can't see us doing better than 8-8. Do I wish we could go 12-4 and have a home playoff game, of course. I just think a lot of us will have to come back to reality.

For all the BB enthusiasts of him having a great year this season. BB was brought in to stretch defenses with his speed and hands. However I have not seen him get open or a ball thrown his way. I know he had a good game back in the playoffs with NO but really where has he been. All they say about BB is he has a good attitude and ready to play. Last time I checked that doesn't stretch defenses unless you get open and catch ball and maybe even stretch the play with his speed. SO unless I see his number called I will still feel he has done nothing to earn his paycheck

Fred you don't have to defend my position. It is normal for disagreement, in fact, it is healthy and I welcome it. If your analogy has merit, you may have stated it backwards– I am looking at the forest, too many are looking at a tree, seeing what may be a weakness in a position. This is one heck of a team we have assembled– the key word, being T.E.A.M. Best coaching and overall balance in personnel since the 98 team.

Troy – Allen is still here because we have space on the final roster for five CBs and Allen is still the 5th best player at the position right now. He's shown us that he's not starter quality, but that doesn't mean he's not backup quality. CB is one area where the team needs ample depth, since our better guys have been prone to injury.
By Soup on Aug 25, 2011 | Reply
Other QB's developed and tutored by our veteran QB's Several years before starting games? Guys I can think of off the top of my head go back a little further than your list… Tommy Kramer, Wade Wilson, & Rich Gannon (although I don't remember if we drafted him). In the last 20 years we haven't done a good job of letting a draft pick watch and learn before throwing him to the wolves, so to speak, but no club really does that well anymore. We're a fast food society and expect immediate bang for the buck. I hope Webb and Ponder can learn from McNabb for a few years as I'm sure it will give them a leg up. I believe that McNabb's got a fair amount of gas left in his tank and given a supporting cast (& coach!), he'll do very well.
P.s. Randall Cunningham was indeed one of my favorites too. And like McNabb, everyone said he was washed up when we took a chance on him too and he LIT IT UP for a good while as a Vike!!

no improvements made on defense so far
no improvements made on our front line except the release of McKinney – I guess that's addition by subtraction. lol
a step backwards in the receiver corps
so how is it you see us going 7-1 at the half way mark?
We have a harder schedule than ever so we will be lucky to win 5 games this year – sorry to say – wish it was more – just keepin it real
By Titus on Aug 25, 2011 | Reply
Thanks Fred, like usual, we all can add to the discussion. I see the talent but I also see the big picture.
And to Joe C– I have to disagree. Tremendous improvements to the overall health of the morale, motivation, and attitude of the whole team due to an overhaul of the coaching staff. New head coach, new Off Coordinator, etc. These are not so obvious to the average observer– sure we don't see the addition of a superstar like a Randy Moss, but those type of additions do far less to advance a team than the building of a team. Team, team, team. We have a better team
New QB – a great veteran with something to prove. The D is better in many ways, have to respectfully disagree– the WR are probably more balanced than in 09 and last year– Jenkins, Arcenaux and company have been added along with some excellent rookies.
I don't see any subtraction except for a negative cloud that hung over this team. No favoritism to leaders, err, cough cough, quarterbacks. No dissension. No micro managing. No, Joe, there have been a whale of improvements since last year–what is reality?
By Parody on Aug 25, 2011 | Reply
@Joe C –
Defensive Improvements: Healthy Griffin & Cook; Deep talent at DL; Promising young DBs
Offensive Line Improvements: Young competition; All injuries healed
Receiver Corps Improvements: No 10-week injury to the #1 WR; Great Rookie TE; Harvin's Headache Problem solved; Tons of competition for #4 & #5 WRs
Other areas you ignored:
Improvements at QB – 3 good healthy QBs, including a much healthier #1 QB with a chip on his shoulder, and 2 backups better than any backup from last year
Improvements at RB – Good #3 player, with competition at the position
Improvements in Coaching – Head Coach is a huge step forward; Offensive Coordinator, OL coach, QB coach & RBs coach (among others) all have experience coaching successful playoff teams
And, most importantly:
Improvements to team unity – Players are all displaying more interest in team success than their own, and those who aren't are given little lattitude. Examples include Ray "I can't believe you gave my backup a new contract" Edwards, Sidney "I'll heal up after you give me a new contract" Rice, Tarvaris "I never got a fair shake" Jackson, and Bryant "My music business and fast food pitstops are more important than showing up for practice" McKinnie.

Oh, adding to the WR part, I wanted to mention the DE who are excellent– when I said rookies, that was partly what I was referring to– just so excited about the upcoming season. 6-2 or 7-1 at the break.

Comparing the Difficulty of this schedule over 2010:
Lions better team = 2 tougher games,
Packers & Bears, argualby no difference
The other 10-games include two games against teams who were at the bottom of the division last year, compared to two games against teams who were at the top of their division the year before in the 2010 schedule. This should equate to two easier games. We're playing against the NFC South compared to the NFC East last year, which was arguably the better division. We're also playing against the AFC West compared to the AFC East last year. The East had two playoff teams, including one who went to the conference championship, while the West was arguably the worst division in the AFC.
I don't study teams outside the NFC North nearly enough to have an impression of their improvements, but based on what I just reviewed, the 2011 schedule ought to be significantly easier.
By Parody on Aug 25, 2011 | Reply
It's hard to believe that this team will be as bad as 1-5 against the division again, even though the division has gotten better. I would be willing to guess that we make an even split and end up 3-3 within the division, and take the rest of the games at an 8-2 or 7-3 split.

Tommy kramer was a first round pick that was developed. He had some good years. I agree, I hope Ponder and Webb learn alot this year and can take over next year.

To the BB haters have you been keeping up with the reports coming out of camp about him so far. They have said he's catching and running better routes and getting open. Thats what we want to hear because yes we have Harvin but can he be counted on for 16 games. Just think if BB keeps this up and we have him, Jenkins, and harvin on the fe=ield plus a good one we have already on the rouster in a 4 reciever set come on.We have to realize that BB has the speed and ability to get open he just has to catch the ball.We say how a new qb can make a player better so lets see if Mc Nabb can do this for BB so far he has shown promise

Vikings fan1955 – I understand what they say they're seeing in practice, but we need to start seeing it on the field. I can't remember how many times the coaches praised TJack for his improvement with a redshirt on during practice, but we never saw that transfer over to gameday. If it continues to go the same way for Berrian, then he is no good to this team.

Kenny- Rich Gannon was drafted in the 4th round of the 1987 draft by New England. They wanted to convert him to a DB but Gannon said no to that idea. He was quickly traded to the Vikings. I think Rich sat behind Wade Wilson before he got his shot to play.

I had the opportunity to get a DVD from the library when the Vikings played the 49ers in the NFC championship. I don't remember what year it was but it was during the glory years for the 49ers who went on to win that year's super bowl.
In that game Wade "Whiskey" Wilson looked as good as any QB who EVER PLAYED in the NFL. Unfortunately he had some injuries after that year. He was as good a runner as Steve Young at that time, and could throw the ball accurately.
He was an 8th round draft pick according to Carl K, which I do not doubt.

Shame on me for doubting the offensive linemen who were drafted in the late rounds this year. Dr. Love looks like a good one.
The rivalry between Webb and Ponder could be legendary.
Kilmer-Theisman-Jurgensen in Washington
Morton-Stauback in Dallas
Starr-McHan in Green Bay
Young-Montana in S.F.
….all of these combos eventually won at least one Super Bowl.

The list of players who were ignored or drafted in later rounds is mind-boggling:
Running Backs: Bill Brown, Dave Osborn, Scottie Graham
Offensive Line: Tinglehoff, Sunde, Vellone, Alderman
Quarterbacks: Kapp, Wilson, Gannon
Defensive Backs: Bryant, Mackbee, Sharockman, Kassulke
Linebackers: Winston
Defensive Line: Randle HOF
These are the ones I'm pretty darn sure of, and I know there are twice as many as I've listed.

Bill Brown was drafted in the 2nd Round, but was traded to the Vikings.

In his place you could put Cris Carter who was a 4th round Supplemental pick, and was picked up by the Vikings for next to nothing.

text: Hillary Clinton: Obama and I Restored America's Leadership in the World Print article Send a Tip by Charlie Spiering 10 Jun 2014 post a comment Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said that although she had disagreements with President Obama during her time at the State Department, she was largely proud of her career. "[I]n many areas he and I worked together and I think we saw positive results, I'm very proud of what we did during the time I was there," she said. "I think we restored America;s leadership at a time when it was in quite dire straights." In her new book Hard Choices, Clinton expresses disagreements with Obama on some of his less successful foreign policy endeavors, especially some of his choices in Syria and Egypt. But the disagreements she had with Obama are not emphasized. Clinton shared a draft of her book's manuscript with the White House before it was sent to publishers, according to a Politico report. Former National Security Council and Obama adviser Tommy Vietor has also joined Clinton's team to promote the book. "Her record is our record," he said to Democrats while discussing the book. Clinton also praised Obama for his actions in the raid to kill Osama bin Laden. "I looked at the president. He was calm. Rarely have I been prouder to serve by his side as I was that day," she writes.

Stone Soup
Posted By nodesigns On January 23, 2011 @ 2:00 am In Easy Recipes,Kids Section | 1 Comment
As a prelude to making this recipe with your kids, read Marcia Brown's STONE SOUP. It tells the story of three hungry soldiers who come into a village and cleverly trick the peasants into sharing their food–by making a lavish soup out of seemingly nothing but stones. Like the soldiers' soup, this recipe turns basically whatever vegetables you have on hand into a hearty meal. My kids loved plopping a real stone into the broth, as we've described below, but if your pantry's low on stones, you can let the potatoes fill that role.
1 stone, big enough that it won't get lost in the soup (quartz is a good choice because it won't break down in cooking)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 celery stalks, trimmed and chopped fine
1 large carrot, cut into coins
3 medium red-skinned potatoes (unpeeled, and cut into halves)
1/2 sweet red pepper, chopped
1 large garlic clove, pressed
6 cups chicken broth (or a combination of broth and water)
1 medium zucchini, diced large
1 medium yellow squash, diced large
1/2 cup corn kernels, fresh or frozen
2 cups cooked elbow macaroni, or other soup pasta (optional)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
The first step is for your child to scrub and wash the stone thoroughly. Then, for an extra cleaning, she can drop it in a pot of water to boil while you prepare the rest of the soup together.
In another large pot, heat the oil, then sauté the onion on medium-high for 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in the celery, carrot, potatoes and red pepper, sautéing for 6 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, and then add in the broth. Using a spoon, fish the stone out of the other pot, add it to the soup and bring to a boil. Add the zucchini, squash, corn and pasta, cooking another 8 minutes or until the zucchini is the desired softness. Season to taste with the salt and pepper. Before serving, sprinkle on the croutons, then ladle–minus the stone–into individual bowls.
Serves 6 to 8.
