Trouble With the In-Laws
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Q: My wife and I have a great relationship. After four years of marriage, I feel really supported by her and never doubt her loyalty.
However, I can't say the same about my mother-in-law. She's never felt that I'm good enough. She constantly picks fights with us for no reason. We've tried to say things on occasion, but it has not changed anything. How can I make this issue disappear?
A: You can pick your wife, my friend, but you can't pick your mother-in-law.
That being said, as a grown man four years into a successful marriage, you shouldn't have to prove anything to anyone. The truth is as long as your wife thinks you're "good enough," that's all that really matters!Seeing your mother-in-law for dinner once a week and listening to a few obnoxious comments is one thing. However, it sounds as if she is much more involved in your everyday life. In this case, simply ignoring her spiteful comments will not suffice. I think this requires a serious sit-down with your wife. Her mother is alienating you and she needs to hear this very plainly. It's essential to stop hinting around the topic. That's not going to get your desired results. I'd advise you to be very specific with what you need from your wife as well. Encourage her to take the lead and to stand up for you, by standing up to her mother. It's a matter of respect, and she needs to tell her mom that acting abusively towards you is unacceptable to her. Your mother-in-law also needs to understand that ultimately if her bad behavior continues, there will be consequences in how you choose to include her in your lives. At the end of the day your persistence in being a supportive and caring husband is most important. You know what type of man you are and so does your wife! Please keep me updated on your progress. All questions and comments can be sent to ASK NOAH at firstname.lastname@example.com Have a profitable and peaceful week, Noah This article was written by an independent contributor, separate from TheStreet's regular news coverage.

Title 15: Domestic Relations
Chapter 5: DESERTION AND SUPPORT
Sub-Chapter 3A: Parentage Proceedings
15 V.S.A. § 307. Voluntary acknowledgment of parentage
§ 307. Voluntary acknowledgment of parentage
(a) In any case in which the parents of a child are not married, parents of the child may acknowledge parentage by filling out and signing a Voluntary Acknowledgment of Parentage form prescribed and made available by the department of health and by filing the form with the department of health. The Voluntary Acknowledgment of Parentage form shall be confidential and shall include the parents' mailing addresses and Social Security numbers, instructions for filing the form with the department of health, information concerning the legal implications of completing the form, including the procedure for establishing parentage, parental rights and responsibilities and child support obligations.
(b) The department of health shall make Voluntary Acknowledgment of Parentage forms generally available to the public through hospitals, medical offices, schools and the courts. Upon adoption of the uniform national Voluntary Acknowledgment Form by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, it shall be adopted by the department of health. The form shall contain language emphasizing the gravity of the effects of acknowledging parentage and the rights and responsibilities which attach. The form shall also contain the following statement: "Parentage creates specific legal obligations. This signed form may be used in court in support of a parentage claim. You should seek legal advice before signing this form if you have any questions or if you are confused about your rights and responsibilities."
(c) The department of health shall only make the completed Voluntary Acknowledgment of Parentage form available to the parties who signed it and the office of child support. The office of child support shall not have access to the form except for the purpose of initiating a parentage or support proceeding on behalf of a dependent child as defined in section 3901(4) of Title 33, in which case the department of health shall make available to the office of child support upon explicit request, the appropriate information.
(d) A witnessed Voluntary Acknowledgment of Parentage form signed by both biological parents under this section shall be a presumptive legal determination of parentage upon filing with the department of health provided no court has previously adjudicated parentage or no legal presumption of legitimacy otherwise applies.
(e) In an action brought under this chapter, documents on file with the court that contain the Social Security number of the parties shall be released only to the parties or the state if it is involved in the matter.
(f) A person who has signed a Voluntary Acknowledgment of Parentage form may rescind the acknowledgment within 60 days after signing the form or prior to a judicial determination of parentage, whichever occurs first. The rescission shall be in writing and shall be filed with the department of health. If a Voluntary Acknowledgment of Parentage form is not timely rescinded as provided for in this subsection, the determination of parentage may be challenged only pursuant to Rule 60 of the Vermont Rules of Civil Procedure. During the pendency of such a challenge, the legal responsibilities, including child support obligations, of any signatory arising from the acknowledgment may not be suspended during the challenge, except for good cause shown. (Added 1989, No. 220 (Adj. Sess.), § 30; amended 1993, No. 105, § 4; 1993, No. 228 (Adj. Sess.), § 12; 1997, No. 63, § 5, eff. Sept. 1, 1997.)

CHICAGO - In a new effort to stop the flow of illegal guns into Illinois, Governor Rod Blagojevich today announced the creation of an elite gun trafficking police unit that will work with federal authorities and law enforcement agencies from two other states to detect and capture gunrunners and dealers.
"Most guns used in crimes come from out of state. The more we can stop the flow of illegal guns into Illinois, the less gun crime and gun violence we'll see. That's why we're creating an elite gun crimes unit to reduce the flow of crime guns into the hands of criminals. We're going to track illegal guns to their sources and crack down on the sale and distribution of illegal guns," Governor Blagojevich said.
More crime guns flow into Illinois from Indiana and Mississippi than from any other state. According to recent data, 777 crime guns from Indiana and 532 crime guns from Mississippi were located in Illinois. Crime guns from these two states alone nearly equal the total number of crime guns from the next 10 states combined.
Nationwide, close to 90 percent of guns used in crimes are trafficked. In Chicago, for the past two years more than 75 percent of murders involved guns.
Trafficking is when a gun is passed from a legal buyer or seller, to a person or group who are not permitted to have a weapon. Trafficking also takes place when a gun is stolen, sold by a corrupt dealer to a criminal, sold to a legal buyer who gives it to a criminal, or inadvertently sold to a criminal. In Illinois, almost half of traced gun crimes were trafficked from another state.
"Illinois is flooded with a deadly tide of crime guns that come from states that have very lax gun laws. This initiative will have a greater impact on reducing Illinois crime than any other gun safety measure currently being proposed," said Jim Kessler, Policy and Research Director for Americans for Gun Safety.
The gun-tracing unit will work with authorities in Indiana and Mississippi, coordinating information on purchases, allowing law enforcement to take action.
The unit will also analyze federal data to detect trends and patterns and prevent criminal activity. The unit will be led by a Master Sergeant and will include five new intelligence analysts to study crime gun data and help lead agents to gun traffickers. The state troopers assigned to this unit will be trained by the federal bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF).
The Governor also sent a clear message to those who want to make guns more easily accessible. "Bills that would preempt the home rule and take away the power of cities to enact gun control laws, or that would make Illinois a conceal and carry state, or that would destroy records that will make it harder for law enforcement to trace gun crimes, are bills that would weaken our gun laws and increase crime. If any of these bills reach my desk, let me say it right now: they are dead on arrival."
Illinois State Police Director Larry Trent, Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics Director George Phillips, Special Agent in Charge of the Chicago Division of the ATF Andrew L. Traver, and the leadership of the Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police as well as legislators and leaders from state and national gun control advocacy groups including Americans for Gun Safety, the Chicago Chapter of the National Brady Campaign and the Northern Suburban Chapter of the Million Mom March joined the Governor at the press conference.

Nicki Minaj Gets Playful in Nail Polish Campaign [Video] »
Rick Ross, Bow Wow Delay Albums to 2012
The fall release lineup is getting slimmer by the day. Rick Ross and Bow Wow are the latest rap releases to see delays.
The Teflon Don's fifth LP God Forgives, I Don't will likely be pushed from its December 13 date due to his recent seizures. "[Because of] my little health situation, I had to postpone a lot of my groundwork," Rozay told MTV News. "If I wanted to, I'm pretty sure I could still meet that date, but I think for the people, it's more important [to lay groundwork] for when I get out there and look them in the face and touch them hands."
While he promised fans he wouldn't push it back again, Bow Wow's Cash Money debut Underrated has been moved from December 6 to an unspecified 2012 date. The 24-year-old rapper recently shot a video for lead single "Sweat" with Lil Wayne.
Additionally, projects from Monica, Birdman, Nicole Scherzinger, and Taio Cruz won't hit shelves until the new year, and we've heard that albums from Young Money's Tyga and Lil Twist will also not arrive in time for Christmas.Tweet

text: October 27, 2011 \ Shawn Korby \ 45 Comments Recent MLS Changes Impact Areas of Como Park – Part 1 Share/Bookmark The MLS (Multiple Listing Service) is used by Real Estate Agents to list homes for sale as well as search For homes for prospective buyers. In mid-September, a significant change was made to the way homes are listed on its service. For years, homes fell into what were called MLS Districts. Some districts contained one community, others more than one. Some agents as well as the MLS Board of Governors felt that there were problems with homes being listed in the wrong MLS areas, and that the MLS District system itself and its boundaries were "arbitrary" and in need of a change. So the change was made. Now homes are listed by "neighborhood" instead of by MLS District. In some areas this works like a dream, but in others, including areas of Como Park, it's hurting more than it's helping. In fact, it could be argued that the City District boundaries by which the MLS is now defining neighborhoods are even more arbitrary than the old MLS districts. This is no more evident than by the fact that homes on West Como Boulevard, with direct views of Como Lake and Park will currently not show up for an agent searching strictly in the "Como" neighborhood. They would have to search "North End/South Como" to find them. But this latter "neighborhood" includes homes as far east as Rice Street and beyond. Many hundreds of homes were purchased by homebuyers believing they would be living in Como Park. This recent change may have a drastic impact on that reality. I myself have lived in and worked as an Realtor in this newly defined neighborhood for years. So I admit both a personal and professional interest in this issue. Please leave any thoughts/comments you may have in the area below. We will be compiling feedback to forward to the relevant parties. If you'd like to speak to me directly, please feel free to contact me at (651) 442-0829. Thank you for your attention! Shawn Korby m4s0n501

My passion for the arts is an integral part of my life. I discovered my love for metals after taking a class at the Delaware Art Museum and became fascinated with the manipulation of sheet metal into three-dimensional jewelry and works of art. Studying with many of our region's most distinguished instructors has allowed my creativity to blossom over the last nine years. I like to use gemstones and found objects, often vintage finds, and integrate them into simple, clean, bold pieces using fine silver and 18kt gold with small amounts of sterling silver when necessary. Many of my works, whether jewelry, decorative boxes or bowls, incorporate hollow-form, anticlastic and synclastic forming as the basis of the piece. I hold onto a gemstone or found object until it reveals its place in my work. As I work closely with a client I strive to retain the simple and clean lines that are an essential part of my design philosophy. Visit my website at www.kristinllandondesigns.com.

Designed with the collaboration of Western Pros, Matt Newman and Billy Skinner, the Picasso Buzz Saw Buzzbait is designed to throw a lot of water and cause a commotion on the surface that bass can't resist. Manufactured to achieve the perfect balance between casting distance, straight tracking, and quick planing, the Buzz Saw's counter rotating blades provide increased lift and assure the bait runs straight.
Its compact design also allows it to be fished over structure such as blow downs and grass without getting hung up. A Mustad UltraPoint hook delivers instant hook penetration and the ideal barb size to keep fish on. The 1/2oz, 3/4oz, and 1oz sizes of the Picasso Buzz Saw Buzzbait are ideal for throwing in windy conditions where traditional lighter size buzz baits have to be put away. Because of their greater casting distances, they are ideal for fishing long points and clear water where the fish are easily spooked.

CORPUS CHRISTI - The Padre Isles Property Owners' Association has decided not to move forward on placing a patrol boat out on the island until it gets feedback from homeowners.
The board met last night to discuss placing a boat out on the island to cut down on crime.
In the end, the board decided to hold a town hall meeting so officers can explain why the boat is needed and how much it may cost residents.
The town hall will also allow residents to voice their concerns about the proposal. Board officials tell us they will announce a date for this meeting later this week.

Small Archaeological Projects and the Social Context of their Data
December 17, 2012 § 4 Comments
I am still working away on the paper that I will deliver after the holidays at the Archaeological Institute of America annual meeting in Seattle. As with everything this time of year, it is taking me long than I thought it would and my ideas are refusing to coalesce without some rather painful reflexive thinking.
My paper is titled "Archaeological Data and Small Projects" and is scheduled to appear in a panel called Managing Archaeological Data in the Digital Age: Best Practices and Realities. My goal is to present some of the social and technological realities of how our project, the Pyla-Koutsopetria Archaeological Project, dealt with the translation of archaeological from the field to the computer. A very preliminary summary of my paper is here. The goal of my post today is to clarify and expand some parts of this summary as I begin to revise my paper for January.
One thing that several commentators have mentioned is that the use of iPads or other digital recording devices in the field increased efficiency in collecting, analyzing, and disseminating archaeological knowledge. These tools made it easier, in effect, to bridge the famous gap between the field and laboratory by eliminating the intermediate step of producing paper field notebooks which are then digitized "back at the lab" for inspection, study, and archiving. Smaller projects have struggled a bit to keep pace with the technology necessary to capture the various kinds of information produced at the edge of the trench (photographs, illustrations, and text) and to synthesize it in an integrated database.
Our project captured archaeological information at the edge of the trench or from the survey unit using paper forms. A project director then translated this information into a format suitable for archiving and analysis in a database. While kept paper copies of the original trench notebooks and scanned them for both archival purposes and as a check on our databases, we conducted most of our analysis based on the data keyed into our trench database. (We are currently going through this same process with the trench notebooks from Polis-Chysochous on the western side of Cyprus.
As many of my colleagues have pointed out, this particular workflow is inefficient. There are, however, reasons for these practices. First, paper forms or notebooks are almost infinitely flexible data recording tools in the field. A trench supervisor can defy the standards established by even the most rigid form by simply overwriting the expected data type, changing the form midstream, or expanding it to meet a new challenge or observation in the field. While this flexibility constantly threatens to produce data that is incompatible with the information being collected in other trenches or survey units in the study area and runs the risk of losing information, it also allows for trench side innovation, creativity, and ad hoc solutions to the almost limitless variety of objects and relationships encountered in a trench. Moreover, the paper form – when filled out correctly – makes it very difficult to delete or overwrite potentially meaningful mistakes. The record produced by the paper form, then, is in some ways more stable and dynamic than that collected directly in a digital context.
I'd like to say that these advantages were our primary motivations for collecting archaeological information on paper forms at the side of the trench, but they were not. We found paper forms easier, less costly, and more stable than using a digital tool to directly gather data from the unit or the trench. Moreover, we knew how to make a good paper form, so the learning curve was quite modest. Conversely, our various database were notorious fickle creatures. The few times that we made it possible for a student or even a trench supervisor to key the data into one of our excavation databases, we ended up supervising their work closely, making tweaks to the database, and working with them to figure out ways to accommodate various incompatible or irregular entries on the forms within the more rigid structure of our database. After a short time, we concluded that it was easier for a project director to key the data into the database and use the translation from paper to pixels as a way to review and understand the data coming from each trench.
The technical limitations of our project staff and the relatively small areas exposed by our excavation or documented by our survey played a key role in shaping our workflow. It also shaped the process of digital data production by producing a distinct, intermediate step between archaeological documentation in the field and translation of this information into digital data. The documentation work performed at the edge of the trench or by the survey team leader derived from conversations with various team members, experience in the trench or the fields, and the systematic engagement with the stratigraphy or artifact scatters in situ. In contrast, data entry mode involved the solitary keying of field observations into a database. Archaeological information recorded in the field was inevitably smoothed during data entry as I massaged the flexible character of paper forms to conform to the rather more rigid fields in our database without the benefit of trench side observation or collegial conversations with various participants in primary information collection. The field sheets were frequently in a different order than they were produced in the field and the tedium of data entry often invoked a kind of frantically repetitive fugue state. Data entry was strangely satisfying, however, in that one could see the conversion of hours of fieldwork into a quantifiable series of records that became a shorthand for the quantity and quality of information collected from the field.
The experience of data entry and field collection were significant different in terms of both the kind of information produced and preserved and the experience of the process. Our method was, of course, inefficient. The massaging of data to fit into a rather less flexible database likely caused some kind of data loss particularly in exceptional cases where the forms did not anticipate the kind archaeological "reality" in the field. Of course, maintaining data entry as a separate, distinct step of the process also allowed for use to adapt our databases on the fly to accommodate archaeological information from the field.
Whatever the limitations or advantages of various forms of data capture produced by archaeological projects, the processes put in places by small projects with limited expertise invariably shape the kind of information recorded and analyzes. The tools and social contexts of a project dictate the kind of knowledge a project produces.
§ 4 Responses to Small Archaeological Projects and the Social Context of their Data
I think labeling it inefficient is actually quite wrong for some data types. The process you describe is a type of Quality Assurance/Quality Control which should be built into any project. Academics rarely include this in methodologies in any formal way. When data is entered directly, errors may not get noted until the analysis phase, which can be so long after the event that correction is impossible. Some data errors also are unlikely to ever be noticed outside of immersion in the process (for example, a Munsell color that has Y instead of YR–only way to notice that is if you are immersed in the Munsells for a trench or whatever). Additionally, the data entry project familiarizes the PI with the data, which presumably has to happen sometime. There are, of course, correspondingly data types where this is overkill–e.g. elevations.
There is also another efficiency issue with in-field data entry. I consider it the "number of balls in the air" problem. To do data entry in the field, one needs to constantly pay attention to things that aren't the archaeology–hardware, power, data interfaces, glare and shade. While those things may only require a fraction of the intellectual power of the excavator, they still require attention. In my experience, directly doing field data entry and also employing people who I have forced to do field data entry, there is a cost. It can be disproportionately stressful, frustrating and un-fun, because it can create too many small details to attend to at one time. Crews can and should be stressed, but not to a point where it damages the quality of the work (or makes them quit).
So, depending on the project, I vary from mostly analog to mostly digital field data collection. Soil probe transects=total data entry in the field. Shovel tests are usually 1/2 digital 1/2 analog. Formal excavation is mostly analog, including paper level forms. Delivery time can effect this–if a project is on a tight deadline, we do as much direct entry as possible. I also tend to give a bonus to the crew that suffers through this as it makes for headache inducing generally sucky days. My favorite setup is field crews doing paper while I do onsite digital entry (like Pettegrew at his table). This happens about never in reality for budgetary reasons.
An exception is some spatial and GIS data–usually the two-dimensional. That is always direct in the field as I think that provides the best quality. If there is a mapping error, it frequently requires one to be on site to fix it. So for those, I emphasize do the GIS in the field and check it twice and then have someone else check it before you leave. Three dimensional I tend to do a mix of digital and paper, as that seems to be the fastest.
Oh–and I use out-of-the-box software that crews already are accustomed to using. So, for example, soil probes just go in a Excel spreadsheet or even a Word doc. That way if they need to add a field or do similar, it is a non-issue. Likewise they don't have to use a software package that isn't second nature to them.
I agree with Richard on the Quality Assurance/Quality Control issue. I won't deny that exporting the data and then dumping it into the database later is inefficient; but I think think there is some value to that inefficiency. In the case of PKapp, it requires the trench supervisors to look at the data again, and it also gives the database administrator the chance to see it before it ever becomes a part of the archive. When you add in the simple data validation techniques built into the app, it means that folks would really have to try hard to get invalid data into the master database.
Certainly, we could write directly to a SQL database residing on a server somewhere (and we may want to someday), but then someone is still going to need to look at those data and confirm their accuracy.
I think efficiency is good as long as everyone knows what they are doing. But for small projects with regular turnover, perhaps the inefficiency serves us well?

The physical toll of teen social problems
People who endure hard times during their adolescent years could find their bodies suffer in the future as a result. This is the suggestion of new work published online in Springer's journal Annals of Behavioral Medicine, which found stressors during the transition from childhood to adulthood can lead to disease in later life.
Investigators from Umea University in Sweden - founded in 1965 - discovered those who are hard up from both a social and financial perspective during their teens could experience physiological distress when they reach middle age as a consequence - regardless of whether their position eased during the years in between.
The authors observed: "Physiological wear and tear visible in mid-adulthood is influenced by the accumulation of unfavourable social exposures over the life course, but also by social adversity measured around the transition into adulthood."
According to the study, adolescence is a particularly sensitive time for females, while the same can be said about young adulthood for men.
Dr Lisa Orban, Chartered Psychologist, commented: "These findings speak to the importance of teaching young people more effective mechanisms to cope with stressors during this critical stage of development.
"Adolescents often learn to suppress emotions and actively avoid feelings and sensations associated with the body's natural response to stress.
"Emotional avoidance as a coping strategy can be practiced well into adulthood and can result in problematic long-term effects, including significant emotional and physiological distress."

Dreadlocks Using Beeswax
The easiest way to sculpture dreadlocks is with the assistance of
beeswax, whether you have straight or curly hair. You will also need up
to one hundred small rubber bands, a strong comb and it wouldn't hurt to
have the help of a friend.
For long straight hair, you will need to use the backcombing method. You
do this by applying wax, then inserting the comb one inch from the root
and sliding it toward the scalp. By packing the hair strands down
towards the root, you will create each dreadlock. As you go, roll the
dreadlock so that it comes out rounded. After the dreadlock has been
fully packed and rolled, place another rubber band at the tip to keep it
in place.

Confront a danger, take a risk, as in I went straight to my boss, bearding the lion. This term was originally a Latin proverb based on a Bible story (I Samuel 17:35) about the shepherd David, who pursued a lion that had stolen a lamb, caught it by its beard, and killed it. By Shakespeare's time it was being used figuratively, as it is today. Sometimes the term is amplified to , which may combine the allusion with another Bible story, that of Daniel being shut in a lions' den for the night (Daniel 6:16-24).

Torrington mayor's legacy elusive
Critics say little changed; supporters laud financial vision
TORRINGTON — Mayor Ryan J. Bingham packed up his City Hall office last week as he prepares to turn over the keys to Councilman Gerald Zordan, who will finish out Bingham's third term starting Tuesday.
Critics say Bingham is leaving the city no better than he found it, though no worse. Supporters point to the mayor's long-term financial vision as an effect that won't be measured for years to come.

Water, Water, Everywhere . . . And YetJudy Fishman · The Way I See It · Oct 2014
Competing on price is not, of course, an unfamiliar reality—production/high volume laboratories have been the perceived competitors of small laboratories for decades. But now, with digital technology available to all size laboratories, the competitive arena enables some laboratories to make a comfortable profit via sheer volume and that is one of the causes of industry-wide price erosion.
As you see from our cover story, The Race to the Bottom is the takeaway mantra of respondents to LMT's 2014 Fee Survey and it isn't pretty. Because of price competition—fueled largely by...

The FCZ DilemmaMaribeth Marsico · LMT Surveys · Oct 2014
A 2014 Fee Survey participant from the Midwest—who prefers to remain anonymous—offers a thoughtful take on how the rampant price competition on full contour zirconia restorations is negatively affecting the bottom line of many laboratories. Here's what he had to say:
In the early 1980s, the price of gold skyrocketed and non-precious alloy showed up on the scene. Since it was a cheap metal, most labs didn't even add the cost of the metal into the crown fee. However, they weren't thinking about the revenue they had been making on gold alloys—or about the...

SAN DIEGO – December 15, 2012 – Santa Claus rewarded all the good little boxing head boys and girls with excellent boxing entertainment wrapped up pretty in a jam packed Saturday of boxing to end 2012.
Top pound for pound fighter Nonito "Filipino Flash" Donaire had little problem with veteran Mexican fighter Jorge Arce, taking him out with a smartly thrown left hook, set up by a right hand. The knockout took place at 2:59 of the third round. If that sounds familiar, Juan Manuel Marquez knocked out Manny Pacquiao at 2:59 of the sixth round last week.
Donaire admitted his Filipino fans wanted revenge for last week's loss by their hero Pacquiao. "You gotta get him, you gotta get him… Mexican fighters are rough and I have the most respect for him."
What's next for Donaire, now 31-1, 20 KOs? Fans want to see him fight Abner Mares if the cold war between promoters Golden Boy and Top Rank will thaw long enough to make it happen. With Top Rank's Bob Arum standing in the ring, Donaire said, "I want to get Mares because of the fact he's called me out." But Donaire said he'll gladly fight Cuban ex-patriot Guillermo Rigondeaux in lieu of Mares. Donaire will fight anyone. He loves to fight and the fans love him for it. He's a legitimate candidate for Fighter of the Year.
Arce said he promised his family he would retire after the fight if he lost, and he will be good to his word. He ends his pro career at 61-7-2, with 42 KOs. He has a job waiting for him as a boxing analyst with TV Azteca in Mexico, and he'll make a good one.
Amir Khan resurrected his boxing career by combining his trademark hand speed along with some new patience and ring generalship that led him to a victory against young Mexican challenger Carlos Molina, now 17-1, 7 KOs. Khan is now 27-3, 19 KOs.
At times, Khan looked like he was working the speed bag in the gym, throwing blazing fast combinations of punches seemingly at will against Molina. He had Molina so intimidated, Molina offered little offense of his own. Molina was cut over the left eye, had come up in weight class, and it was all too much for him. He took increasing punishment and his face was a mess. Before the 10th round, Molina's corner told him "You gotta bring something." When the round was over, Molina's corner stopped the fight. Molina came up in weight for the fight and he was unable to keep up with Khan, who put on a smart exhibition of his top skills.
Khan said his new trainer Virgil Hunter is teaching him how to be patient. "I'm too brave for my own good." Khan he's ready for a rematch with Danny Garcia, who knocked him out earlier this year. Garcia, who was ringside for the fight, is scheduled to fight Zab Judah in February, who Khan has defeated.
Fellow British boxer Ricky Hatton offered some entertaining commentary throughout the Khan bout to the Showtime announcing crew via Twitter, which they read to the viewers. The next time Paulie Malignaggi isn't available to provide color commentary, Showtime should consider giving Hatton a chance to join the team.
2008 Olympic bronze medalist Deontay Wilder (26-0, 26 KOs) had no trouble with Kelvin Price (13-1, 6 KOs), notching his 26th knockout in 26 fights. When Wilder threw a single straight right hand to take down Price at 51 seconds of the third round, he looked like a baseball player who knows he's hit a walkoff grand slam in the bottom of the ninth to win the game. He knew from the second the punch connected it was all over.
Alfredo Angulo (22-2, 18 KOs) and Jorge Silva (15-3-2) thrilled fight fans in Los Angeles with an action packed brawl that never let up for one second in all ten rounds. Angulo took the unanimous decision by identical scores of 97-93. Silva would be welcome as an opponent again in the U.S. thanks to his willingness to engage.
Earlier in the day, bantamweight Leo Santa Cruz (23-0-1, 6 KOs) won a unanimous decision over Alberto Guevara (13-1, 6 KOs) in the first network boxing on TV in 15 years, shown on CBS. Santa Cruz looked terrible at the start of the fight, appearing to suffer damage to his nose. But he settled down, sucked it up and improved his performance round by round. Santa Cruz apologized after the fight to fans, saying he should have rested longer after winning in June. Fans seemed to enjoy it, but the truth is that many of them got in for free since it was so early in the day. Let's hope the ratings were good enough for CBS to offer boxing coverage again soon in 2013.
Also victorious was 2012 U.S. Olympic boxer Joseph Diaz Jr. He won in his professional debut over Vicente Alfaro in a unanimous decision. His Olympic teammates Errol Spence and Marcus Browne also won their fights, both by TKO.
Showtime will repeat the Khan vs. Molina and Angulo vs. Silva fights at 10 a.m. Eastern and Pacific Time on Sunday, December 16. HBO will also show Donaire vs. Arce and the Pacquiao-Marquez IV replay on Sunday, December 16, at 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time.
