Golden State Warriors forward David Lee was limited during the playoffs by a hip flexor injury. While the tear was expected to end his season, he elected to put off surgery and was able to return in a limited capacity. With the Warriors' season having ended, Lee underwent surgery yesterday to repair the torn hip flexor, according to The Associated Press.The surgery took place in Philadelphia and was performed by Dr. William Meyers. Lee will begin his rehab program in 10 to 14 days, and at this point there has be no further timeframe for his recovery announced by the team.Lee suffered the injury during the Warriors' playoff opener against the Denver Nuggets. He missed the next four contests before returning briefly in Game 6. He then averaged over 10 minutes per game over the final four contests of Golden State's second-round matchup against the San Antonio Spurs.During the regular season, Lee averaged 18.5 points, 11.2 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game. He led the NBA in double-doubles and was a key reason for the team's regular season success.Follow @hoopsinjurynews

Do you think wearing on-body cameras on duty should be mandatory?
A defendant cannot suppress evidence if he cannot show that his own legitimate rights were violated in the way it was obtained.
Ever since the U.S. Supreme Court made the Fourth Amendment exclusionary rule binding on the states in the 1961 decision in Mapp v. Ohio, thousands of published decisions from state and federal courts have applied the exclusionary rule to thousands of searches and seizures. It's no wonder the 50-year tidal wave of exclusionary decisions has left confusion and misunderstanding in its wake. Here are five areas of the law that seem to suffer the most in translation.
Your biggest fear in a dog shooting lawsuit is punitive damages. While compensatory damages are likely to be covered by your employer, punitive damages are probably coming out of your pocket.
Many people who use the term "stop and frisk" fail to realize that there actually is no such concept in the law, and that the phrase "stop and frisk" couples two constitutionally distinct activities that do not necessarily coincide. This misunderstanding is easily traced to the coincidence in Terry v. Ohio.
Private residences enjoy the highest levels of Fourth Amendment protection against governmental intrusion. Here are the 10 most common ways to get inside a home without violating the Fourth Amendment.
Some search-and-seizure rules are not very clear, and state and local federal courts might apply them differently. How can you be expected to pick and choose the right rule on an issue for which there doesn't seem to be just one "right" rule?
What if an object only comes into plain view after an officer shines a flashlight or spotlight into an area, or looks through binoculars? Does this use of sense-enhancing devices make a difference in the Fourth Amendment calculation of reasonableness?
If you aren't speaking and behaving at all times in public the way you want to appear when you're uploaded on YouTube, you could have some unpleasant surprises in store.
Under what circumstances would the Fourth Amendment allow routine collection of DNA samples upon arrest and booking? A recent Supreme Court decision addressed this issue.
The Supreme Court has made it more difficult for law enforcement officers to obtain the most probative evidence of impaired driving—a measure of the alcohol concentration in a sample of the suspect's blood.
Essentially, because of the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution, you are damned if you do and damned if you don't. And the public has no sympathy whatsoever for your precarious position.

Enforcing safe passing rules is tricky
When Houston officials passed a law last year requiring drivers to give cyclists three feet of space, they noted that enforcement was tricky. The point of "safe passing," officials said, was to encourage drivers to give cyclists room, not to catch them disobeying the law. That's backed up by national findings on safe passing laws. […]

I love my Kahr P40 and have been carryng it all summer while off-duty. When I first got it, there were some feeding issues. I sent it back to Kahr, they polished the feedramp and replaced the recoil spring. Two weeks later I had it back and it has been flawless since.
I DEEPLY regret selling my Kahr MK9.
WORD OF ADVICE: If you are thinking of selling one of your Kahrs, DON'T DO IT, MAN.

Maris Elder (guest star Whoopi Goldberg) has been holed up in her apartment for the past 26 years. Jane believes this woman, who has special insight into the Drake, can help her remember what happened after she went down the mysterious basement staircase. A dark presence haunts the building in which they reside. It has the ability to open the door between past and present. Maris believes Jane can unlock memories found deep within her mind through hypnosis.
Jane is hurled back in time to October 28, 1927 as she walks though a mysterious red door in the middle of the lobby. She's at a birthday party for young Jocelyn at Peter Kramer's place where everyone knows her as Libby Griffin. She realizes why once she catches a glimpse of herself in the mirror. The image reflects the look of a different young woman. Jane overhears Peter talking about a deal where he'll get whatever he desires. In present day, Maris says Jane and this Libby woman have an extraordinary bond. They just don't know what it is yet.
Gavin pays Maris a visit. He can't seem to cross the threshold of her front door. He's looking to make a deal with her. Maris says she'll reveal where the stairs took Jane if she's allowed to walk out of the Drake in one piece. As for Jane, she enlists help from Detective Cooper to learn that Libby died October 28, 1927. The two of them break through the wall of the old Kramer apartment to access a hidden fireplace. Lodged behind one of the bricks is a journal that Peter Kramer placed there. It contains the symbol that's outside Maris's door. After Jane leaves the apartment, we can see the troubled image of Libby Griffin inside the mirror.
Jane asks Maris to take her back to 1927. Peter Kramer orders Libby/Jane to take Jocelyn out of the Drake, but the front doors are locked. They hide under a desk as Peter's friends swarm the lobby. Libby/Jane steps up to the panicked men. She's quickly taken hostage, strapped to a chair and rendered unconscious. Libby is murdered as part of some sort of occult ritual. She was used in place of Jocelyn. That means Jane's grandmother's life was spared because of how Libby protected her. Her past and her future seem to be tangled up within the Drake.
The next morning, Maris releases a dove out the window of her apartment. She grabs a book and heads down to the lobby for the first time in a long time. Gavin is there to meet her. Maris hands over the book. She's marked the page that will be of interest to him. Gavin opens the book to find Jane's signature on the guest list from Peter Kramer's party in 1927. Outside, Maris stops in the middle of the sidewalk with the Drake at her back. She transforms into a flock of white doves. The birds fly off into the sky. As for Jane, she sees Libby in her bathroom mirror asking for her help.
Olivia enlists Tony to help her get Shaw to reveal the location of her once-thought-dead daughter, Sasha. They await a meeting at a building that's currently under construction. Shaw manages to break free from his bindings to attack Tony. Fortunately, Olivia has a gun to settle him down. She hears Sasha's voice over the phone. Olivia wants Shaw to take her to her daughter or she'll take him back to the Drake. Killer Kandinsky pulls out a high-powered rifle as he watches Olivia enter the apartment building where her daughter resides, but Sasha isn't home. BANG! Shaw is shot dead and Olivia is left with no clue as to how to find her daughter.
Gavin arranges a meeting with political consultant Phillip Perez for Henry regarding an open a city council seat. The get-together never happens. Perez says his firm can't back a guy who has a girlfriend who spent time in a psych ward. Laurel learns that this Perez guy dodged city taxes on a land deal. Henry uses this as leverage to force the political consultant to make Jane's medical files go away. Perez lets Gavin know that he was impressed with what Henry did. He believes that his protégé may have an enemy-someone who leaked Jane's psych profile. Gavin suspects the leak may be Laurel, who, as it turns out, is actually his daughter-Sasha.

Oprah Winfrey spoke about the Trayvon Martin case during her appearance on Today Show on Monday. The talk show host compared Martin's death to that of Emmett Till in 1955. Till was a black boy who was killed by white men after allegedly flirting with a white woman. The case helped spawn the civil rights movement of the 1960s.
Follow Us
Martin, meanwhile, was shot to death by neighborhood watchman George Zimmerman in Florida last year. Zimmernan argued that he killed the boy in self-defense, and he was acquitted of murder and manslaughter charges earlier this year. Till's alleged killers were also found not guilty.
RELATED: Who Called Oprah A "Field N*gger"?
"It's so easy during this time — Trayvon Martin, Trayvon Martin parallel to Emmett Till, let me just tell you," Oprah said. "In my mind, same thing. But you can get stuck in that and not allow yourself to move forward and to see how far we've come."
Oprah was on Today to promote her upcoming film, The Butler. The host previously claimed that this movie would help white people understand why blacks were so upset about Martin's death. You can watch video of her Emmett Till remark here.
RELATED: George Zimmerman Nearly Arrested Again After His Acquittal!
Oprah previously made headlines this week for her comments on Paula Deen. The Food Network host lost her job after it was revealed she had made racist comments and used the n-word. Several companies, including Sears and Smithfield Foods, also ended their relationships with the chef after the controversy. But Oprah noted that many others in America still use similar terminology.
RELATED: Did Tim Allen Defend Paula Deen?
"I think that Paula Deen represented, you know, millions of people who have used the word," Oprah said. "Unfortunately, she is a public figure. And whatever the situation was with the hearing that she had, or had said it and then went on TV and said she had only said it one time, but Paula Deen, I thought, represented a whole lot of people. And I think for the big issue to be made about Paula Deen was what the media does."

The first act of the Republican primary ended last Thursday not with a bang but with a Tim Tebow reference. The most influential pre-primary debates ever concluded in Sioux City to boffo ratings on TV but negative ratings for the candidates, leaving Iowa Republicans with the possibility of a Christmas miracle: These guys might actually let Ron Paul win.
Iowa is all about momentum, and right now Ron Paul has it. He's surging in the polls, trending on Twitter, and inviting scores of Young Americans for Liberty to spend "Christmas with Ron Paul" and get out the vote in Iowa. It's the right time and the right place. With successive frontrunners falling from grace and Mitt Romney failing to close the deal, Ron Paul could be the right man.
Public Policy Polling has Paul effectively tied with Newt Gingrich in Iowa, 22 — 21 percent, and the New York Times' Five Thirty Eight blog took all the polls into account and gave Paul a stunning 27 percent chance of winning the Iowa caucus. This means Paul, a political pariah with the powers-that-be in his own party, is likelier to win the Iowa caucus than he is to pass a single bill in Congress. The Texas Republican is so hated by Republican leadership that the Texas legislature make his congressional district more Democratic in the latest round of redistricting, all but demanding his resignation as if he were old college football coach who overstayed his welcome.
Ron Paul might be the Dennis Kucinich of the Republican Party, but in Iowa he's winning on the strength of the Obama coalition: new voters, young voters, and non-Republican voters. With nothing happening on the Democratic Party side, Paul is leading among Iowa caucus-goers who say they are Democrats and independents, leading Gingrich 34 — 14 percent with Romney at 17 percent.
Meanwhile, Paul's new professionalism has impressed the cognoscenti. His debate performances have turned heads, and his attack ads show a polish and tactical smarts missing from his previous presidential campaigns.
But none of this can protect Ron Paul from himself.
The most exciting part of the debate, other than Rick Perry's attempt to fit Tim Tebow's jersey over his business suit, was Paul's exchange with Michele Bachmann that revealed why Paul can't win the nomination. Paul genially lectured the crowd that a president can't "overreact" to reports that Iran was seeking technology to build a nuclear bomb, which he termed "war propaganda."
Paul's ingrained opposition to military adventurism is why his acolytes adore him—and why he's the Republican so many Democrats secretly love—but it's also what makes Republicans such as Bachmann consider him an enemy of the party if not the state.
"I think I have never heard a more dangerous answer for American security than the one that we just heard for Ron Paul," said Bachmann.
According to a recent Washington Post/ABC News poll, "Ron Paul's opposition to U.S. military interventions overseas" was more unpopular than Romneycare among Iowa Republicans, almost half of whom rating it a "major reason to oppose" Paul. Paul's non-interventionist stance drew an equal negative rating to Romney's Mormonism, Gingrich's marital history, and Gingrich's pro-amnesty stance on illegal immigration—combined. And the more likely someone is to attend the Iowa Republican caucus, the more they hate Paul's foreign policy.
Whether it happens in Iowa or later in the primary, Paul's non-interventionist foreign policy will be his undoing. His unwillingness to draw a hard line against a nuclear Iran disqualifies him from leading his own party.
This is Ron Paul's paradox: The reason he might win the Iowa caucus is exactly the reason he can't win the Republican nomination. You're just not going to get very far with Republicans if Democrats, independents, younger voters, and newer voters make up the core of your support.
And what of Rick Perry's Hail Mary attempt to call himself "the Tim Tebow of the Iowa caucuses"? According to PPP, Tebow enjoys a 48 percent favorable rating among Iowa Republicans. Turns out for all the controversy, Tebow is more popular in Iowa than any of the Republican candidates, but don't look for Tebow to jump in this race. Tebow was born in the Philippines and can't be president. And because he wants to limit our country's foreign involvement, neither can Ron Paul.

Mumbai is the curate's egg of Indian sightseeing. Some critics deplore the city's monolithic architecture while others delight in Mumbai's eccentric gigantism that climaxes with impossibly excessive Gothic spreads such as Victoria Terminus.
Gritty and glamorous, Mumbai personifies today's India. A megalopolis of 14 million people, Mumbai is India's commercial and business hub. Contributing to Mumbai's tourism industry is the city being host to the world's largest film industry (Bollywood, of course). Mumbai is also home to the region of Dharavi, one of the world's largest and most idiosyncratic slums.
Though Mumbai thrives during the daytime, evenings take a much more sedate turn and the most popular evening activity in Mumbaiby faris strolling on the beachfront promenades and taking in the markets and outdoor activities there. Families enjoy an occasional night at a local restaurant or an evening cricket match.
Located on the far western coast of India and bordering with the Arabian Sea, Goa is a small seaside state that is a colorful and interesting fusion of Indian and colonial Portuguese styling. Well-known for its beaches, as well as its laid-back and relaxed atmosphere, Goa has been attracting a wide array of foreign tourists since the 1960s.
The unique background and architecture of the city makes tourism in Goa comparable to no other place in India or the world. It seamlessly blends old colonial Portuguese styling and architecture with modern India. The state has a wide variety of impressive sightseeing options, interesting attractions and ancient landmarks.
Restaurants in Goa offer visitors a wide selection of flavors and cuisines from around the world as well as an abundance of local restaurants serving unique Goan dishes. The local Goan cuisine was influenced by the Portuguese during colonial times but today draws many of its influences from the rest of India.
A international city with a classically Asian street-food core and incessant buzz, restaurants in Mumbai offer cuisines from all over the world, but visitors would be missing out if they didn't have at least several Indian meals prepared in the various styles of different regions of the country.
Hyderabad is well known for its delectable cuisine. Dishes have a strong Mughal flavor, and locals have a great passion for food, similar to the Mughals. Meat dishes are prominent, and the pounded meat dish of haleem is the most popular dish in the area.
Situated up in the Aravalli Mountains of the northwest Rajasthan area and not far southwest of Delhi, historic Udaipur is one of India's romantic hotspots. Founded by Maharana Udai Singh in 1568, it is often coined the 'City of Dawn' and is positioned on the sizeable Lake Pichola.
Cochin has a long list of activities available to visitors, spanning cultural exhibitions, theme parks and water sports. Outdoor sports are particularly attractive due to Cochin's beaches, mineral springs and forests.
Udaipur is one of the more relaxed and safer cities in northern India, with little violent crime and hassle for foreigners. Pickpockets and scammers are apparent, however, while being aware of certain vaccinations before traveling to India is advised. Udaipur is best visited in the winter when it is dry and cool.
While Udaipur is not as high profile for its eating as Madras or Mumbai, this is India, and it still has great food. There are curries galore in any and every bazaar that can be had for a snip and at any heat, right up to the swankiest restaurants amid the picturesque Lake Pichola.
Hyderabad has been at the heart of India's commercial industry for centuries. Shopping in Hyderabad's various bazaars and outlets allows visitors valuable insight into the local culture, as well as the opportunity to hunt for unique gifts and beautiful souvenirs.
On entering Hyderabad, visitors are immediately blinded by an urban maze of gleaming malls and glass-fronted office blocks. However, once they discover the charming Old City, they realize there is substance behind the shiny surface.
Hyderabad is one of India's safest large cities; however, a number of terrorist bombings shook the city's confidence in 2007. The attacks targeted major tourist attractions including Mecca Masjid, Kothi and Lumbini Park.
Cochin has been a diverse, international destination for centuries, and today's tourists find locals well-versed in the customs of the West. This enhances the opportunity for cultural exchange and also makes shopping and price negotiation easier, as locals are more likely to speak and understand English. The transportation scheme of Cochin loosely organized, but between taxis and auto-rickshaws, visitors have no trouble getting from point to point.
Cochin may not have the massive shopping complexes of larger Indian cities, but it still offers a satisfying selection of antiques and handicrafts. Tourists who enjoy the experience will get plenty of mileage out of the small shops and galleries in the area.
Cochin is a South Indian destination that has served as an important colonial port since the 16th century. It's considered to be the cultural hub of Kerala, with contributions from Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, Jewish and Christian communities. Known for its sites as well as shopping and nightlife, Cochin is one of the best-loved tourist destinations in the region.
Udaipur is fantastic for traditional crafts and everything from wooden statues to silk ties and high-end fashions can be had. The best shopping is in the many bazaars that can be found all over Udaipur.
Cochin doesn't receive the attention that it is arguably due, a fact that pleases the relatively few tourists who decide to take a look around. This town is full of historic sites dating to Portuguese colonial times, many of which were renovated or outright rebuilt by Dutch and British colonists.
Lake Pichola presents options for entertainment away from the busy streets of Udaipur. Various companies and private individuals run boat trips around the shores of the lake and out to the islands. You get to take in the city from another perspective and you can also head for Jag Niwas Island to dine at the restaurant there.
Most of the city's attractions are tucked away in its old quarters. Although the multitude of glass-fronted modern buildings reflects attention away from the historic Old Town, they do nothing to taint the city's undeniable charm.
Udaipur has a rich history that is best seen in its palaces and temples. Most sites are based on a religious theme and it is easy to be impressed by the sheer scale of some of the palaces.
The Cochin dining experience begins and ends with seafood. Fishermen bring in fresh catches daily and by mid-morning local chefs have already set about preparing their fish for the evening's specials.
There is no shortage of entertainment in Hyderabad as the city offers visitors a host of exciting activities during the day and after dark. Amusement parks are the main source of entertainment in this area of India. An endless selection of rides provides much adrenalin-fuelled excitement for all the family.
The local arts and crafts culture in Jaipur is as fascinating as its religious monuments and palaces. Shopping varies from traditional market places brimming with bargains to more refined options that offer gems and jewelry.
Jaipur's shopping and historical draws are supported by the city's wealth of tasty cuisines that are on offer for as little or as much as you wish to spend. The markets are home to an abundance of food stalls selling everything from breads and rice through to coconut curries and barbecued meats.
The capital of Rajasthan State, Jaipur offers its visitors more than just a wealth of interesting history, with lively markets, authentic restaurants and a multitude of ancient palaces to also occupy its guests - all set in the heart of a desert. Often referred to as the 'Paris of India', Jaipur is home to more than two million residents.
The surprisingly modern city of Jaipur successfully mixes and blends an interesting history with captivating architecture in the form of palaces, temples and lively commercial centers that house numerous businesses and companies.
Jaipur is home to a surprising amount of attractions and a wealth of activities that rival that of any major city. Visitors to Jaipur can choose between an authentic visit full of local markets and temple hopping and a luxurious break in a five-star hotel complete with spa treatments. These options blend together to make this diverse city a great choice for people searching for all types of holidays.
Shopping is one of Jaipur's primary draws and the city's multitude of impressive palaces and temples are another prime reason for many to visit. Restaurants usually close at 23:00 and the nightlife in Jaipur is relatively calm in comparison to that of other cities. Theaters often host puppet shows that are colorful and fun for all the family.
Kolkata's restaurant scene would be the envy of most world cities and is certainly the dining out capital of India. Kolkata's restaurants are famously diverse and though some of them are 200 years old they tend toward décor that is simple, 1930s Art Deco rather than ornately moldy.
No city in India can compete with the Southeast Asian cities of Bangkok and Singapore when it comes to shopping, but Kolkata more than holds its own as a place to spend money. There are a growing number of shopping malls and department stores, particularly in South Kolkata and the plethora of souvenirs left over by the Raj keep outdoor markets very well stocked.
Mumbai is a progressive and modern city that isn't easily offended and draconian laws related to dress, alcohol, and homosexuality that apply to other Asian cities are far more lax in Mumbai. On the other hand, there's no pumping club scene here and raucous night-owl behavior will only really interest the local police.
Mumbai isn't a shopping paradise along the lines of Singapore or Bangkok. Even though this is a great city of commerce, mass retail has yet to really catch on and department stores or shopping malls are very thin on the ground. Instead, visitors should aim for eclectic market purchases or excellent second-hand buys.
Kolkata may boast a dozen major universities but anyone expecting a swinging student bar scene here will be disappointed. Students here take their studies seriously and time away from the books is invariably spent earning some much needed part time cash, and budget beer busts are not the norm.
The intractable poverty of Kolkata—which reverted to the Bengali spelling of its name in 2001—may be the stuff of legend but the former Indian capital's heritage as a center of arts and literature is under-reported.
Kolkata is a cosmopolitan city and its sheer size may intimidate the first time visitor. It is a very safe city though with the only recurring crime-related problem the drug dealers of Sudder Street, who tend to keep to themselves anyway. Public transportation around the city is excellent but visitors on a tight schedule may want to narrow their Kolkata trip down to just one or two key districts.
There are hundreds of grand buildings built by the British Raj in Kolkata, since it was the capital of India during the British years and everything from a semi-replica of St Paul's Cathedral was built here to celebrate and emulate the style and power of London. The so-called 'City of Joy' is a bounty of grand colonial architecture and the Ministry of Tourism provides a comprehensive Kolkata guide.
Despite being one of India's largest cities, Chennai enjoys a slower pace of life compared to others. However, there are plenty of entertainment outlets for both locals and visitors alike.
Goa offers visitors a wide array of entertainment, from water and sporting activities to museums and casinos. The nightlife in Goa is lively and exciting, with countless bars and discothèques as well as frequent outdoor parties in the jungle and along various beaches.
The Indian city of Chennai, formerly known as Madras, is a major industrial center and the capital of Tamil Nadu. The city was established by the British in the 17th century and functioned as a large urban center and naval base. By the 20th century, Chennai gained more significance and has become India's fifth largest city.
Chennai is Tamil Nadu's dining capital. The city has an excellent selection of both Indian and international restaurants. The restaurants along the waterfront have unrivalled ambience, are the best maintained and serve the most authentic cuisine.
Goa is an easy city to visit as the pace of life here is decidedly egalitarian and laidback. A multi-cultural but decidedly modern city, Goa offers visitors friendly hospitality, high-tech conveniences and plenty of diverse recreational options.
Due to the vast array of different cultures residing in the city, Chennai is a cosmopolitan city. It is also one of India's safest cities in terms of crime but like all big cities it has its fair share of pickpockets.
Chennai is gradually emerging as one of India's top shopping destinations. The city offers immense variety, ranging from glitzy malls to busy bazaars.
Aside from an exhaustive list of religious sites, Chennai's tourist appeal is rather limited. Most of the city's colonial buildings have been converted into offices, and the traditional Tamil territories of Triplicane and Mylapore are overpopulated and somewhat intimidating for visitors.
Visitors who enjoy bargain hunting will be in shopping paradise in Goa with its extensive array of markets offering a wide selection of goods for sale. There are food stalls with dried fruits, nuts and local delicacies as well as handmade items, jewelry, clothing and home wares on offer.
Spend a holiday in Goa and relax on powdery beaches dotted with swaying palm plantations. Stroll out from your Goa hotel to dine at rickety shacks serving fresh curried seafood. Inland, dusty roads link villages and towns in rainforest clearings, while Hindi shrines and hippy trail culture live side by side.

The Next Three Weeks
In like a lion, out like a lamb.
Shiver Me Timbers: #Strava Ride Today
Today's ride was c-c-c-c-cold. The 26 degrees wasn't so bad, it was the blasting headwind, gusting strong at 30+ MPH that was tough to take. I stayed closed to home and took it slow at times, steady most of the ride. I really didn't enjoy this ride, and mid way through I found myself just wanting it to be over.
This winter is the toughest I've had on the bike in some time. The temps have been extremely cold, and whenever I do have an opening in my schedule to ride, it's often snowing. I've been dabbling with the trainer just to get some energy out and to keep my legs in some kind of shape, but I'm really seeing why the pros just move to California during the winter months to build their base miles.
Anyway, I climbed the Notch, which isn't the hardest hillclimb but it's not something I usually do in January. Hills are my friends, hills are my friends, hills are my friends. I'll be grateful come summer when I'm faster for it.
One Leg Drills
I've been an avid cyclist for 14 years now, and never heard of the "one leg drill" before. I'm hanging around the right people on Twitter, and just learned the term. After Googling "one leg drill cycling," I learned plenty. Recommended in the early weeks of base training, a one leg drill is performed on the trainer and is made to build strength. Watch this great video to illustrate how it's done.
I've been reluctantly spinning on the trainer from time to time lately, no more than an hour–I just can't take the tedium of a longer time period. The weather coupled with my work schedule hasn't allowed riding outside. I last rode outside almost 2 weeks ago, and before that, another 2 weeks. This weekend looks highly questionable for outside cycling; as I type even more snow swirls and falls outside. It is 8 degrees.
So OK, I want to do the work, and the work will have to be on the trainer. I unclipped, spun for .3 mile, re-clipped, then repeated on the other side another .3 mile. Guess what? It was HARD. I should have done more. More importantly, I should have done it in an easier gear. I went back to the Internet (after I finished spinning) and got the following instruction:
Unclip one foot and rest it on a chair next to the bike so you are left to pedal with only one leg. With the bike in a low (easy) gear turn the crank at a comfortable cadence. The first thing you'll notice is that getting through the top of the stroke, the 12-o'clock position, is difficult. Focus on smoothing this top transition. At first you may only last a few seconds before the hip flexors fatigue. When that happens switch to the other leg. When it fatigues clip both feet in and pedal for a few minutes applying what you have learned in the single-leg pedaling. Repeat the drill several times throughout the workout.
I did notice the "dead zones" in my pedal stroke they discuss in the video. I can see how this engages more muscles and works the leg much more specifically.
I'm really having a tough time with the lack of real riding over this winter, and there is no end in site. I am trying to stay active in the evenings, but oftentimes I am not free to workout until after 9PM, and let me tell you, that just ain't happening. So I'm going to try and do the one leg drill thing, at least once a week, and several times during the workout.
2013 Totals
This will be short & sweet. I should have written down my numbers for 2013 so I don't have exact stats. Fortunately I still have enough brain cells to remember the ballpark….
2013 Stats
Distance 2710 mi
Elev Gain 118,000+++ft (should have written this one down!)
148 miles run, walked, hiked or skied.
2012 Stats
Distance 2,127.8mi
Time 173hr 44m
Elev Gain 81,385ft
Happy that I crushed last year. I took on more climbing and found that it really made me stronger and faster. More of that in 2014. I'm not sure I'll be able to match these achievement given my heavy work schedule. But I'll have a great time trying.
CSI Cyclocross Weekend 2013
It seems like every time I sit down to write about a race, I always want to convey how excited I was about the event–how much I look forward to it. Each race is different and special. Northampton is my home (or thereabouts) and is special for that reason, but it's more than that. This is the oldest UCI race in the country, and in its 23rd year, the race has taken place at Look Park for many years now.
This weekend is the ONE weekend I have ALL YEAR that is ALL MINE. My son is away with my ex. My significant other is away on business. And there is a huge 2 day cyclocross extravaganza practically in my backyard. I look forward to this weekend all year.
So you can imagine how bummed out I was when I started to feel like a tired piece of crud on Thursday. I started popping Zicam like candy on Friday and by Saturday morning, I was still feeling abnormally fatigued and a bit sneezy. Not to mention, I haven't been riding much the last month Work, fading daylight, and increasing demands of my son's schedule have made rides few and far between. Now that I've properly explained away why I did so crappy, I'll tell you about the races.
Day 1-Saturday
Course was slightly moist, not really muddy, but greasy in spots. I got a really terrible start. Too much hesitation in front of me and I was caught in the dominos. On the first pass of the run-up, I was forced right, up the steepest, least climb-able part of the hill. The racer in front of me slipped and lost control of her shouldered bike and hit me, and then the same thing happened to me. I practically dragged the bike up the steepest part of the hill. It was ugly.
Then we were in the woods, which I liked. The course twisted and turned and spit us back down onto the flat and fast grass, taking us down a swift singletrack. On the grass there was lots of sprinting and braking and turning and more sprinting. The second run up wasn't anything to sneeze at, and wound us through the woods again, and onto my favorite addition to this course. A very mountain-bike-esque set of dirt turns through trees with minor elevation changes. I LOVED this section. It was just plain fun and challenging enough to keep the best riders on their toes. I think I liked it because it was hard without being dangerous. Perfect.
I did, however, crash in this section. My first actual crash in a race. The rider in front of me spilled and forced me into deep unstable soil and I went ass over tea kettle. She quietly apologized (Cat 3/4 Women as very polite racers I've discovered) but I hopped back on and kept going (and so did she). No worries. This was all part of the adventure.
After this the course shot us down a trail on over the railroad tracks. If you had enough speed, you could catch air here. I did every time and it was wicked fun. Despite feeling like shit, I was having a good time.
Back on the grass it was power, power power……something we all know I'm short on. I did my best and tried to ride hard and smooth. I finished 60 out of 82 racers. Now I shouldn't feel too bad about this since the top 15 are all crazy good. But this wasn't the middle of the pack I was aiming for. Sigh. Being off the bike for nearly a month has its repercussions.
Day 2-Sunday
On Sunday, the two monster run ups were gone and the course was much, much faster. The good news is I felt much better this day. After spending Saturday hanging out with co-blogger Heather and new cycling friend Aileen drinking beer and eating pizza and watching the Elite races, I got some rest and Daylight Savings Time gifted me another whole hour of sleep. Sunday was a new day. The bad news is it was 15 degrees colder and fast courses eat me for breakfast.
Whatever. I was there to race. I decided that I was going to leave it all out there on the course, Save nothing! I lined up and had a much better start. I was more aggressive and sprinted when things opened up. I had contact with riders for 3 of the 4 laps, playing cat and mouse with several. By the 3rd lap things had shaken out and riders were stretched through the course. I stayed on the wheel of one rider for a half a lap until she shook me and steadily opened a gap on me that was too big to overcome. I worked on keeping myself enough ahead of whoever was left behind me.
I sprinted for the finish alone, finishing 62 of 75. A worse result than Saturday. I was a bit mystified by this because I really felt like I raced this one, rather than just survive it. I think this just illustrates how much better I do in technical sections than on flat open sections. I am no sprinter, I am not fast. I like dicey technical stuff.
So a great weekend all in all. I really would like a full CX experience by having a really sloppy muddy race. Or snow. Most of my races (this year and last) have been very dry. The muddiest race so far has been Providence. I'd love to see how I do in some terrible conditions.
Cycle-Smart International Cyclocross 2013: Photos Day 1
Too much to post about! I raced both days, lackluster performances both days. More on that later. I'll start with some photos. (I dare say I'm a better photographer than I am a bike racer!).
A write up will come….sometime this week. I'm spent. This was a fun weekend, on a great course. I went in sick and my results were my results. It is what it is. It was a beautiful weekend in New England for bike racing.
My Dehydration Problem
It happened again. Saturday I went out for a hilly 37 miles on the CX bike. It was a great ride, cloudy, humid, mid to high 80's but halfway refreshing considering how oppressive it's been here in New England. When I got home, I was thoroughly spent, but in a completely joyous way. I hadn't bonked. I went through my water and was dry the last 15 minutes or so, but began drinking immediately post ride. My ride ended around 3PM.
I showered, changed, had a lovely, healthy dinner–a little white wine in hand, I happily grilled chicken on the BBQ while my other half made us a nice fresh salad and a warm buttery baguette. It was an ideal way to spend a Saturday. Happy, relaxed, well fed, I settled down to watch some television.
At about 10:45PM, my head started hurting. Bad. By 10:50PM I was clutching my skull and rubbing, trying to knead out the pain as if my head had a knot in it that just needed to be worked out. The nausea kicked in at this time as well. 11:00PM I abandoned the movie I was watching and retired to the bedroom, plugging in a heating pad to wrap around my throbbing head.
11:15PM I went to the bathroom. Not my normal time of day–but my body had other ideas.
11:20PM I tried to got back to bed. My head was enveloped in indescribable pain. I was exhausted and only wanted to escape into sleep. I'd close my eyes and my mind would speed up. A bizarre show unfolded behind my closed eyes, a fast twisty ride filled with surreal images that I couldn't slow down or stop. Moving constantly, I opened my eyes and the pain amplified, but the crazy ride stopped. The nausea intensified. I made the decision to return to the bathroom.
11:30PM I vomited. More than once. Maybe 4 times in a row. I don't know, I was pretty sick and my brain wasn't working well at this point. The only think I knew was that the pain had set up camp in my brain and I only had one trick left to beat the migraine back. I stripped down and turned the shower on hot. I sat in the shower–sat–for about 30 minutes, the hot water working my scalp, my neck, my back. I felt the pain ease and lift. Not vanish but it abated for long enough I felt I might be able to sneak into bed and fall asleep. I did. I slept 8 hours straight and felt completely fine in the morning.
I wish I could say this was the first time this has happened, but it isn't. More like, the 7th? 8th? It always happens when my life gets so busy that I don't take regular care of myself–I rush, I hurry, I skip the basics just to get in that ride. I should have been drinking lots of liquids on Thursday and Friday in preparation for the weekend. Each day, I sweat our fluids. I'm sweating when I blow my hair dry, when I walk to the car, even just sitting inside and watching TV. The AC can't keep up with the intensity of this heat.
I had a goal of 100 miles last week. 35 on Saturday, and another 35 on Sunday and I would have made it. I've been doing mileage like this all year, that and much longer. But after Saturday's hydration failure, my other half insisted I take it easy. I usually would fight about it, but this time I had to agree.
I really need to get my arms around, and KEEP them around this problem I have. I wonder if others experience this problem like I do. I know what happened to me is a result of classic dehydration. I sweat easily and I'm probably losing fluids when I'm not working out–something I really need to be more aware of. I should have a refillable water container at my desk all day and in the car. And I should indulge in some Gatorade from time to time. So–just curious–anyone else have this problem? Care to share? Please comment if you would.

That is going to be the problem with giving any tennis to ESPN and BT vision in the UK as they only have one sports channel each and also have football rights. Sky has four channels and Eurosport have 2 to show coverage on.
During the football season from August to May they will always prioritise football on Saturdays and Sundays over live tennis. That means for any tennis events they cover in the European/middle east timezones none of the semis/finals (if it finishes on Sunday) are likely to be shown live.
The Abu Dhabi final for example on 29 December will be shown 5 hours after the event by EPSN and that is likely to feature Djokovic vs Rafa or Murray. If they arent going to prioritise the top mens players they certainly wont prioritise WTA or smaller ATP finals over the footie.

(KMOV.com) – Photographer Karl Lund said he was scared being in the midst of the clashes between protesters and police in Ferguson Tuesday night.
"Pretty scared, we didn't know what to expect and didn't expect gun fire," Lund said.
Lund said he was laying low as police moved in with an armored vehicle after shots were fired.
"They (gunshots) were all over the place, hitting the truck and hitting the street, it was like someone was aimlessly firing," Lund said.
Lund said one man appeared to be hit in the hand. It was same man a News 4 camera captured as he was driven to the police line at Ferguson and West Florissant. With help, he staggered to officers who took him in.

Maybe she would ask why the ocean has so much water. What an adorably dumb question! Maybe she would compare herself to that Gilligan Crusoe dude. I would smile indulgently and spear a fish for her supper. All Snooki moments are magical.
Snooki is the star, along with Jersey Shore colleague JWOWW, of the unimaginatively titled side project Snooki & JWOWW, premiering Thursday (10 p.m. ET) on MTV. Filmed during her current pregnancy and engagement to Jionni LaValle, the show allows Snooki to say of her unexpected journey to motherhood: "Instead of life throwing me a curve ball, it threw me a sperm ball."

Looking for a new home is serious business – but not if you're Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and Jenni "JWOWW" Farley.
With their foul mouths and lack of boundaries, they can make just about anything – including parallel parking – seem entertaining. Or at least that's what they do in these clips from Snooki & JWOWW, which premieres Thursday (10 p.m. ET) on MTV.
While waiting on a realtor to meet them and show them around a potential new apartment, the roommates-to-be quickly realize that Snooki's going to have to parallel park her "ridiculously ghetto truck" on the side of the road. Problem is: Snooki doesn't really know how – so the scene quickly devolves into JWOWW manually pushing Snooki's truck out of the way of the other cars while Snooki drives. (Watch above.)

Taylor Swift Contest Canceled After Charles, the Hair Sniffer Actually Wins
Boston radio station nixes meet-and-greet due to 4chan support
It may go down as the most bittersweet victory of 2013. A "fat old guy creep" named Charles received the Internet's favor in a "Taylor Swift's Biggest Fan Contest," but was denied the right to smell the young star's golden locks after the hosting radio station called into question the, ahem, integrity of the competition. As Gawker reports, Boston's Kiss 108 FM has cancelled the meet-and-greet entirely due to the meddling of known online troll hovels 4chan and Reddit.
The broadcaster notes, "Disappointingly, we have determined that the integrity of the 'Taylor Swift's Biggest Fan' contest has been compromised. In accordance with our contest rules, effective immediately, the contest has been terminated. We apologize to all of our loyal listeners who have participated." Not a word of condolence to Charles, who sweetly wrote, "I'm a 39 year old man and I love Taylor so much and don't care that both adults and children mock me for it."
Whether or not Chuck is a real dude, his hash-tagged cause became the obsession of web pranksters whose true individual motivations cannot be known, though we're guessing most were united by the thought of the hirsute fella depicted in the photo commingling his ill-kempt beard with Swift's silken locks while scads of heartbroken tweens wept in the distance, their parents nearby and sweating bullets over the inevitable questions to come.
So, you know, sorry, Charlie.

5 Trades Getting Ready to Pop This Week
A breakout in shares of Visa (V - Get Report) is sparking a buy signal for the world's incumbent payment network. Visa broke its uptrend back in mid-February, sending a red flag for traders who've been enjoying the 22% rally shares have made in the last six months. But instead of breaking down, Visa consolidated sideways in a pattern called a rectangle.
>> Must-Own Dividend Stocks for 2013
A rectangle pattern is basically a trend channel (like the one in Sanofi) turned horizontally; it's formed by a horizontal resistance level above shares and a horizontal support level below them. Rectangles are common after large market moves because they give investors a chance to catch their breath before deciding whether to continue building their position or take gains. Yesterday's breakout means that Visa shareholders have opted to do the latter.
The push above resistance in Visa is a buy signal. If you're looking to put in a position in V, today's a good day to be a buyer. The 50-day moving average has been a stellar proxy for support for the last six months, so unless you're buying Visa here for fundamental reasons, the 50-day is the ideal place to put a protective stop.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Lorillard Receives FDA Market Authorization For New Products
GREENSBORO, N.C., June 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Lorillard, Inc. (NYSE: LO) today announced that is has received notification from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that its Newport Non-Menthol Gold Box and Box 100 products have been found to be substantially equivalent to tobacco products previously commercially marketed in interstate commerce in the U.S. The FDA's finding permits Lorillard to begin marketing of the new products, consistent with all existing requirements of regulated tobacco products.
Today's decision marks the first time the FDA has authorized the marketing of new tobacco products through its substantial equivalence (SE) pathway. Lorillard is the only tobacco manufacturer to have received such marketing authorization through the SE pathway and intends to introduce its new products to adult non-menthol smokers in the near future. The Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act gave the FDA the authority to regulate tobacco products in 2009.
"We are very pleased that the FDA has found that Lorillard's Newport Non-Menthol Gold products are substantially equivalent to existing tobacco products currently marketed," stated Murray Kessler, Lorillard's Chairman, President and CEO. "As such, we are proud to be the first company in the industry to receive authorization to begin marketing these new products in the U.S. through the FDA's substantial equivalence pathway. We are encouraged by the Agency's fulfillment of its obligation prescribed in the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act of 2009 and believe that the FDA has carried out is evaluation process in a deliberate manner reflecting sound science. We look forward to continuing productive engagement with the Agency moving forward."
Newport, Lorillard's flagship premium cigarette, is the second-largest brand in the industry and is the top selling menthol brand. Lorillard believes it will further strengthen its competitive position and its overall Newport brand family with the addition of Newport Non-Menthol Gold, as it will become the Company's second Newport style in the non-menthol segment. About Lorillard, Inc. Lorillard, Inc. (NYSE: LO), through its Lorillard Tobacco Company subsidiary, is the third largest manufacturer of cigarettes in the United States. Founded in 1760, Lorillard is the oldest continuously operating tobacco company in the U.S. Newport, Lorillard's flagship premium cigarette brand, is the top selling menthol and second largest selling cigarette in the U.S. In addition to Newport, the Lorillard product line has four additional cigarette brand families marketed under the Kent, True, Maverick and Old Gold brand names. These five brands include 41 different product offerings which vary in price, taste, flavor, length and packaging. Lorillard, through its LOEC, Inc. subsidiary, is also the leading electronic cigarette company in the U.S, marketed under the blu eCigs brand. Newport, Kent, True, Maverick, Old Gold and blu eCigs are the registered trademarks of Lorillard and its subsidiaries. Lorillard maintains its headquarters and manufactures all of its traditional cigarette products in Greensboro, North Carolina.
