I think this idea is being explored in a number of other threads. However your questions are still good.
As has been brought up before the BSA is now in a no-win position where there is no answer that will please everybody.
I still think the local option is the best solution. I don't think the BSA can continue being exclusive, not when it appears that two thirds of the
councils don't want it that way. And I don't think you can force a CO to accept members they don't want.
There will be people who will stomp off but I am agreeing with some of the other posters here that there won't be very many.
There will be troops that will avoid each other but overall I am really thinking this is going to settle down, and fairly quickly.
The two thirds figure was provided by Lodge489 in a previous post. I think it was under "Boy Scouts close to ending ban on gay members, leaders NBC". I can't find it now because I can't search through all the posts in that topic, one of the bugs in this new software. He states he got the information from a member of the executive council.
Keep in mind that even now, the BSA policy does not encourage gay or heterosexual members to "flaunt" their sexuality - that is not what the program is all about. If the BSA goes to a local option, I don't see any issue at all with camporees or "mixing" of units that may have different membership standards.
Right now, many units do not allow female leaders of troops (SMs & SAs). Those units don't have an issue mingling with troops that do. Why should this be any different?
moosetracker commented02-22-2013, 07:01 PMEditing a commentI think dcsimmons is more afraid of showering with "those gays guys" himself (adult leaders with adult leaders).. Only trouble is, he already does, it is just they are there but having to be more quiet about their sexual preferences.. Sort of the idea that being ignorant, means you can "pretend" you are in a "gay free" zone..
But what is going to happen when a boy or parent that is gay wants to join a troop that excludes gays and gets turned away? Then we are right back in the news again and that's my problem.
02-22-2013, 07:50 AMEditing a commentTroops can turn boys away already, for almost any reason except for race.
The worrisome issue of bad press is not my concern. Right now, chartering organizations have the right to exclude non-catholics, females, etc. I believe they should still have the right to do so - at their own risk. I think, maybe naively, that there will be enough COs that would not turn away homosexuals that it would not become an issue.
I have a bit of a problem with any CO excluding anyone (non-catholics,etc.). I really think BSA on a natinal level should set the standard on exclusion and any CO who wishing to be part of BSA has to follow the rules in place by the BSA not the CO organizations. The CO's should have structure their program to BSA program not the BSA structure the program to any CO's idea what the BSA program should be.
ghst- the problem is the BSA has already set their precedent the other direction... BSA currently allows CO's most notably the LDS units to "tweek" the national program to fit the individual unit's needs. BSA allows individual units to keep females out of leadership roles if they want to. But, BSA says a unit cannot currently CHOOSE to allow a gay or atheist to be a leader.
That really is the rub in my book. Why can certain CO's impose their will on the program in one direction, while another CO cannot? Its an option to exclude, with no option to include right now. Might have something to do with the number of LDS units and $$ brought in, I'm guessing...
See, if the ACLU and gays come at BSA with enough money, we'll drop the religious CO's in a heartbeat and all be flying rainbow flags at the next Jambo !!! ACLU has been going about it all wrong these so many years
ghst, to begin withl, that 'problem' is speculative. It is just as likely that IF there is some such controversy, it will be focused on that particular CO and NOT the rest of us. It's their problem, not BSA's.
Local option, local responsibility.
Sounds like we should be looking for a new title for our Balkanized organization, then no longer - the Boy Scouts of America, but The Boy Scouts of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 123, The Boys Scouts of St. Dymphna's Church, The Boy Scouts of the Ancient and Benevolent Order of the Platypus, The Boy Scouts of the Reverend Joe's Church of Total Inclusion and Check Cashing Service.
02-22-2013, 07:52 AMEditing a commentAZMike, we already have that. Troops have the option to exclude scouts and leaders for almost every reason except race.
AZMike, why do we need to rename the organization? We already have certain units that have their own twist to the program and don't camp on Sundays (LDS units). We already have local option with regards to allowing or not allowing female leaders. We already have local option on membership requirements regarding religious beliefs for certain CO's...
I understand that some hold the gay and athiest issues very near and dear because they believe it to tear at the very moral fabric that THEIR view of BSA represents. However, there are others who see exclusion based on gender or religious affiliation just as bad.
BSA national has mucked this up really good, and I'm in agreement with the OP that they have shown just about everything BUT leadership on this issue.
Local option is their ONLY course at this point to save face internally with members and CO's that have different views than one another. Local option is really the ONLY optionleft to attempt to appease extrenal pressure for change (both in lawsuits, land use, and corp. donations) and yet allow the miraid of religious CO's (each with their own views / levels of acceptance of homosexuality) to make a local decision that will keep them in the game.
If national made a policy change across the board to accept gays, would the LDS and Catholic CO's (maybe some others) drop their charters? Maybe, maybe not... I'm guessing on principle, most would want to, but I'm not sure how they face the youth they serve once they no longer have access to the program and the council camps . etc... Local option plays the best parts of each side of the coin. You allow for tolerance of gays in units that are OK with it, without pissing off your huge base demographic of LDS / Catholic / other religious CO's that might bolt if you make an outright national mandate.
Its really the lesser of all the evils considered... the current policy cannot stand any longer, and a complete reversal of the ban is not acceptable to a large enough majority of the membership at this time. What else are they supposed to do?
Leadership? Not so much, IMHO. Merely capitulating to "market forces." It's seems to them to be the most expedient thing to give in to the pressure of our culture that declares that any and all sexual behavior should be embraced and celebrated. The group that trumpets their sexual behavior loud and long wins day. BTW: that loud chorus has no love of the local option and will continue their chants until the BSA someday completely forbids any CO to charter unless fully inclusive.
As others have pointed out, we already have "local option" insofar as COs can pretty much limit leadership and membership, so I don't see much difference. As to summer camp and camporees, I don't see the issue. In the first place, if you go to one of those today and observe how different the units are in conduct, membership, uniforming and leadership, you can see vast differences. We also take our boys to public places like theme parks, water parks and other public venues where the dangers of some kind of actual molestation are much greater than they would be at Scout camp.
National should just bite the bullet and endure the kerfuffle that is sure to follow. I believe it will go much more smoothly than most think.
I have asked this before, and will again, Why when the talk of the local option first started years ago did no one bring the arguments we have today?
Next, there are several Churches that do not accept "openly gay" members. Do they get sued because an openly gay person wishes to join them? Why would a BSA troop sponosred by that church be any different?
At Camporees and other Distrct and Council events there is a fear of "mingling" with gay scouts and scouters? Do you ever go to State and National Parks? Or a commerical Campground? Are all those people straight?
As to your second paragraph, the current administration in pressing their HHS mandate on requiring insurance payments for abortifacients and contraceptives has set out the novel legal theory that while churches themselves are religious institutions, the hospitals and adoption services and food banks and such that they operate under the dictates of their religious conscience are not (much less individual members of the religion who operate their own businesses), and so must pay the cost of providing abortifacients and contraceptives to their employees. SCOTUS will ultimately deal with this issue, but I see no reason why, under this argument, providing a meeting space for a chapter of a national youth organization (and moreover, one which may alter its own policy on this issue) would be held to be part of the church's core religious values.
A "divide and conquer" legal strategy would also be ruinous to the Local Option. If the local chapters of GLAAD and the ACLU target each individual Local Option troop/CO that chooses to continue under the traditional policy, will the BSA fund the legal defense for 20, 30, 100 or more local legal challenges?
Only one of four of my post make it in the discussion, so wish me luck.
I'm glad to see folks glass have full that this will turn out to not be a big deal and will brush over quickly. However, history is different, No youth scouting program has recovered to the level of memebership and funding they had before accepting gay role models.
Also, I think folks are burning out on the political corrections wars in general. Politics is in every part of our lives now and we are being bombarded by media and politicians on who to hate and who to like. Cultural wars are at the highest level ever in the US. People are tired of it and the real scouting discussions on this forum (or lack of) kind of supports that.
I don't see how the BSA can make the switch to accepting gays in any form without changing youth protection policies. As much as folks say it's not about sex, it will quickly become about sex the first time a scout molest another scout. And don't say it wont happen, it has already happened many times, it just wasn't under the context of homosexuality.
Then there is the logical perspective. Ever since the BSA has accepted women as leaders, the majority of new leaders have been adults without a youth scouting experience. I'm guessing no more than 25 percent of new adult leaders today where boy scouts as a youth. So I am asking you folks of wisdom, why would a parent who has nothing invested in scouting want to put up with the hassle of scouting? I think it was tough before, but now it has such a stigma to it that I'm wondering who needs it. Soccer is a lot easier.
Maybe it was inevitable, but we are watching the decline of true scouting and whatever replaces the void will not be a values program and barely an outdoors program. It will take it a little while, but scouting is going to turn into a urban focused program like the YMCA and even the Girl scouts designed more as just a place for youth to gather without program intended to improve the individual. Pack gives a quote that for him is profound, "Religion was not intended to bring people together". Well scouting is the same. It is a values program intended to develop the individual just like religion. The self-serving actions of religion and scouting naturally bring people together because the motivation of individual are selfless. The YMCA was the exact same kind of program before it started getting away from its religious foundation and ideals. Now it's just a place for the youth to meet socially. It has no noble vision or mission for the youth that it serves.
So I'm not a confident about the present program as many here, I think we adults are very self serving and ran scoutingt into the ground. National didn't bungle it up, we did. You don't have to read very many post to see the condesending tone and hatred of the discussions toward each other. Not scoutlike, but nobody seems to care. We want everything and were willing to tear each other down hoping we would be the one left standing after the smoke cleared. We gave up our dignity for the gold ring. We were, and many still are willing to give up our virtues hoping the new world order would favor our own way of thinking. NJ keeps saying "do the right thing". Takes a lot of pride to think our way IS the best way. Nowhere does the Scout oath or law demand that our way IS the only way. There can be no concensus of peace without humility. The actions in the Scout Oath and Law require humility to be effective. There is no humilty in demanding the right thing. That might come in the new Scouting program. As for me and my sons, we are the lucky ones. We experienced the true vision of scoutings.
I love this scouting stuff.
02-22-2013, 12:34 PMEditing a commentHow would today's YP policies not work with gay leaders or gay scouts? They work with female leaders, and they work with Venture Scouts.
It will sure complicate the shower schedule:
Male Youth
Female Youth
Gay Youth
Lesbian Youth
Straight Male Adults
Straight Female Adults
Gay Adults
Lesbian Adults.
Everyone gets 19 seconds in the shower.

Sad day when such a small minority screams so loud that they seem like a majority..... and they push for freedom, as long as it's their freedom and not yours.
Capitulating indeed.......
The most important post I have read in the last few weeks on this forum is the one from Lodge489 who stated that two thirds of the councils weighed in wanting to change the membership policies. So much for outside forces pressuring the BSA into surrendering their values. I have stated before I believe that the majority of BSA volunteers and parents never wanted the BSA to be exclusive.
I very much hope the BSA will release the result of the upcoming vote in May. Don't be afraid of transparency, let the world see what the members think.

You Mean We will have to Change NO ONE ON ONE..ADULT/YOUTH Situations
What part of the Current YP has to be changed?
Tell us exactly what will have to change?
Do we allow NonCustodial Adults to be alone with Noncustodial Youths Now?
Do we allow NonCustodial Adults to share Tents with NonCustodial Youths Now?
Do we allow NonCustodial Adults to teach Sex ED to NONCustodial youths Now?
Do we only allow missionary Postions to be Taught?
Do we Allow Sexual Heterosxual Activites between Consenting Individuals Now on Scout Activities?
I have always wondered what the Official Uniform for a Scout troop is on a Nudist Colony?
"If national made a policy change across the board to accept gays, would the LDS and Catholic CO's (maybe some others) drop their charters? Maybe, maybe not... I'm guessing on principle, most would want to, but I'm not sure how they face the youth they serve once they no longer have access to the program and the council camps . etc."
I don't know that the large church COs would lose anything. Some churches already have scout organizations outside the BSA (Royal Rangers, Royal Ambassadors, Pathfinders, etc.). Some churches already have outdoor camp properties (I found cysc.com, here's a link to WI UMC camps http://wiumcamps.org/). Here's commentary from the SBC (http://www.christianindex.org/8614.article) on their interest in pursuing a different course based on the decision. The AHG exists for at least some of the same reasons. If the LDS church said "no more scouts" it would no doubt end. I suspect the same is true for the SBC and to a lesser level for the Catholics and Methodists. Some of their scouts might join other troops but others wouldn't.
If in fact the local option leads to local law suits I would expect some large defections.
I guess I just do NOT see the value in a local law suit. Part of the charm of local option is if the ACLU (or any other entity for that matter) wants to sue, they have to pony up the time / resources / money to sue each individual unit... and to what end? To force that ONE unit to change their membership policy? One of the reasons BSA national is an easy target is that one ruling can and will affected EVERY single unit across the nation. No so if they win against one unit. It spreads the risk across a larger area and most likely makes it cost prohibitive to go after it at the unit by unit level.

I have had great success eating here. They have a lot of choices and are well trained. I recommend it.
7268 Plaza Center Dr, West Jordan, UT 84084
The food is overpriced, they don't understand the concept of GF and the food lacks good taste. You basically have 2-3 choices and one of the choices are the enchiladas, but they are disgusting... Even I can make better enchiladas than that and I'm a horrible cook.
2309 S Washington Blvd, Ogden, UT 84401
Very few options, but something is better than nothing.
7640 S 1300 E, Salt Lake City, UT 84047
Staff was friendly and the gf menu looked Ok. My daughter got the chicken strips and mashed potatoes , the waiter brought out the wrong plate with fries instead of mashed potatoes but he quickly noticed, and they put scooped COLD mashed potatoes on her plate. Then she couldn't eat her chicken because it was flavor less and rubbery. Food was no good.
802 W 1425 N, Layton, UT 84041
My server suggested the Southern Fried Chicken with biscuits after I told her I was gluten free. That pretty much captures my visit in a nutshell.

10631 Holiday Park Dr, Sandy, UT 84070
very tasty #glutenfree food. staff was friendly and knowledgeable about #celiac and being #glutenfree. I left one star off because of the serious amount of cheese in the enchiladas. The atmosphere is fun, full of sports and a really great place to visit. i highly. recommend it.
10631 Holiday Park Dr, Sandy, UT 84070
very friendly and knowledgeable staff, but stay away from the enchilladas- greasy, salty, plastic tasting. salad was fresh and good. would give it anothet shot , just order something else.
802 W 1425 N, Layton, UT 84041
Dedicated gluten free menu. Their staff is pretty knowledgable and those that aren't usually ask us questions to better help us. Haven't tried many of the entrees we go for the nachos and it feeds two. They are amazing!

Soapsuds Hollow: Spring's arrival means baseball not far behind
Spring is taking its sweet time this year.The snow is gone, and only a fraction of western South Dakota still has snow cover. The Big Sioux River is running again, but there doesn't appear to be any threat of flooding this year. All that is needed is warmth.When the temperature does reach into the 50s, the good people of Dell Rapids have been heading outside to enjoy it. A few bicycles and motorcycles have already been seen on those rare nice days, and the kids have been spotted wearing shorts.The gardeners among us are anxious to get started, and those who love manicuring their lawns are tuning up the lawnmower and trimmer.With the State basketball tournaments now completed, the runners will be out after school preparing for track season.When I was a kid, this was the time of year to get the baseball glove out of the closet and start playing ball again. We just couldn't get enough baseball back then.We started out playing PeeWee baseball, before there was such a thing as T-ball. We had to learn how to pitch, and how to hit the ball when a real pitcher was on the mound.Dad and I spent quite a bit of time playing catch, so I had some of the fundamentals under control when I was 6 years old. There was still so much to learn, and that's where the summer recreation program took over.
There was a young teacher who had been hired by the city one year for summer rec, and it happened to be my first year in PeeWee ball. He had endless patience with us boys. One of his tasks was teaching us how to bunt.The bunt is somewhat of a trick play. It takes talent to master the bunt. The batter doesn't swing the bat. Rather, the batter attempts to punch the ball with the bat somewhat softly. The desired result is a squibble, with the ball rolling away from the catcher but not all the way to the infielders. Hopefully, the batter can reach first base before the ball is fielded.I learned to bunt that year, thanks to that young teacher. His name was Rod Vietor.When I think of spring, I think of baseball and playing catch with my Dad, and learning to bunt from Mr. Vietor.Play ball!

Dogs of the Seas
Dogs of the Seas Overview
Dogs of the Seas: Pirates at War is an interesting browser MMO that mixes city management with real time gameplay. Players start with a homeport which contains various buildings that can be upgraded. Resources like lumber, copper, lead, and food are generated at these buildings and can be used to upgrade structures or build new ships. Agents offer players missions which involve combat or trading. In order to accomplish these missions, players must sail into the Caribbean and take control of their ship. Combat involves Positioning your ship and firing cannons at NPC vessels or other players. Because it contains more gameplay options, the learning curve in Dogs of the Seas is a bit higher than in other browser games. No download is required to enjoy the game but an optional 'graphics pack' can be installed to improve visuals.

Mick Jagger Recalls The 'Idiotic' Press Of The Mid-60's
Tuesday, December 4, 2012
Mick Jagger exerted some definite control over director Brett Morgen's new Rolling Stones documentary, Crossfire Hurricane. Despite that, he couldn't erase some of the more embarrassing moments from his past as evidenced in some of the band's earliest interviews. Jagger was asked by Uncut whether he had a favorite "Mick" while watching the film. Jagger said, "There are some funny Micks in there. The very young one is so odd. One minute, he's completely there, the next he says something so stupid. . . It's easy to laugh now and say, 'What did I say that for?' But people used to ask the stupidest things then, compared to now. It was idiotic."
He touched upon how differently the press dealt with musicians at the dawn of the British Invasion as opposed to now: "It's very naive, the press people trying to be clever, but they're pretty idiotic, and we respond in quite idiotic ways, and rise to the bait and come off with a few good replies. It's mostly quite combative. It makes you remember how antagonistic some people were."
Jagger was asked about whether any of his children have also caught the performing bug, and told BBC TV about his 27-year-old son James Jagger's band: "My eldest son, James, is in a band called Turboguiest, which I don't wanna kinda put it in a niche, but if it was pushed to put in a niche, it's thrash metal with an English sense of humor. But it's a good band. That's my only child that's actually onstage."

Latest update : 2012-12-20
USA: tributes to Newtown shooting victims continue
Tributes to victims of the Newtown shooting in the US continue to pour in online. American Muslims launch a campaign against Islamophobia. And Iran's Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei joins Facebook.
USA: tributes to Newtown shooting victims continue
Carry out 26 acts of kindness to honour the 26 victims who were shot and killed in the Newtown elementary school massacre last Friday. People from all over America are taking part in this campaign, intent on, as this web user says, fighting evil with kindness.
The movement was initiated by Ann Curry a journalist for the NBC television network, in a tweet urging her followers to complete 20 acts of kindness to honour the 20 children who lost their lives in the tragedy. The online campaign has since grown to "26 acts of kindness" to also pay tribute to the six teachers killed in the shooting.
The « 26 acts of kindness » Facebook page has over 11 000 members, with web users documenting their good deeds on social networks. Many have given presents, like candy, or even money, to complete strangers. This woman for example says she left a gift certificate on someone's windscreen, along with a message, calling for a better world.
This web user says she bought Christmas presents for disadvantaged children; others have been getting involved in charitable causes. This blogger donated blood, and this man says he is going to take in a family left homeless by Hurricane Sandy. Other random acts of kindness include leaving an anonymous note somewhere, for someone else to find and pass on.
American Muslims launch campaign against Islamophobia
American Muslims have launched a vast public education campaign called "My Jihad" in a bid to challenge anti-Muslim sentiment in the states. The stated aim is to share the true meaning of the term which is too often used in Islamophobic contexts. The campaign is geared both towards Muslims and non-Muslims.
And of course the web is playing an important role in the campaign. The instigators of the movement have set up a Facebook page and a website to explain the reasons behind it and to encourage web users to get involved. They condemn the hateful comments posted online by Islamophobes and religious extremists that convey a highly negative image of the religion, they also want to clarify the true meaning of the word Jihad which they say involves putting up the good fight against the problems you face, without resorting to violence.
And because the activists behind the movement want to reach the widest audience possible, they are asking for online donations to help pay for posters which will be plastered on public transport in various cities across the United States. And it would seem the fundraising is going well; there are numerous photos circulating online showing ads on buses, like here in Chicago.
And if social networkers are unable to make a financial contribution, then they can get involved by describing their personal struggles under the hashtag "My Jihad"; and call for greater tolerance and understanding within society.
Iran's Ayatollah Khamenei joins Facebook
He recently joined Twitter and Instagram, and now Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has launched his official Facebook page. It may seem a somewhat surprising move given that these sites are actually blocked in Iran, where the authorities are developing a national Internet that will be heavily monitored and cut off from the rest of the world, as they regularly accuse the West of using the web to destabilize the regime.
Now trending on social networks
The highly popular photo sharing platform Instagram has been at the center of much debate after publishing new terms of service on Monday which appeared to say it would be selling users photos to others without any compensation. The decision has incurred the wrath of users of the service, many of whom are threatening to close down their accounts. In view of the backlash, Instagram decided to backtrack and posted a communiqué to its blog saying the new policy had been misconstrued, and it would not be selling members photos.
Video of the day
Zach Sobiech has a rare form of cancer and doctors say he has just a few months to live. But instead of letting the news crush him, the 17 year-old has recorded this song, recounting his fight against the disease. It's incredibly moving and already has over 400,000 views on sharing sites.

The Cameroon native told ESPN that he will weigh his options after the season as he assesses his development. NBA Draft experts consider Embiid, who has played organized basketball only three years, a top-three pick -- and possibly No. 1 -- if he decides to leave.
"I'm not even thinking about it right now," Embiid said after the Jayhawks' 69-52 victory over Baylor on Tuesday night. "I'll make a decision after the season, but I'm definitely considering coming back to school."
Embiid, who told ESPN that he thought about redshirting before this season, was averaging 11.2 points, 7.7 rebounds and 2.7 blocks going into Tuesday night's game in which he had five points and seven rebounds while making 1 of 6 shots from the field.
"He's a bright young man and he's going to weigh his options," Kansas coach Bill Self said, according to ESPN. "He's considering coming back and he's obviously also considering leaving. He can't make a bad decision."

A 17-year-old on a bike was chased by a police officer in a cruiser. When the boy refused to stop, the officer aimed his Taser out the driver's window and fired. The boy fell off the bike and the cruiser ran over him, killing him. A video, taken from the dashboard of another officer's car, recorded what happened in the minutes before the discovery: Three officers squatted next to Ard's car, looking under it at Victor. Ard unlocked the passenger side of his car and got something out. The object is light-colored and floppy, but isn't clearly visible. Ard, holding the object, crawled under the car next to Victor's body and stayed there for 40 seconds. Two minutes later, paramedics found a 9mm silver and black semiautomatic in Victor's pocket.Read »

Missing person at UNH turns out to be hoax
Saturday, January 26, 2013
DURHAM — Though search efforts were dispatched and executed beginning around 10 p.m. Thursday evening, University of New Hampshire officials say there was never a report of a missing person on the school campus.
Officials had also thought the man who claimed to be lost may also have been intoxicated. With the extremely low temperatures Thursday night, his well-being was a major concern.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Excellent quality
Social Graces Square Invitations I ordered my save the dates as well as my invitations from magnet street. I was able to fully design them, save my work to come back to it, and my orders processed and shipped quickly. With both orders I received a few extra which I appreciate in case I made mistakes. I was very pleased with the quality for the price I paid. I would highly recommend this company. One negative if I had to critique is having to put 2 stamps instead of one because of the shape, but it's a small price to pay for receiving such a great looking product.
Simple and Elegant
Social Graces Tea-length Programs Love this entire product line, from the save the date magnets to the invitations to these :)

Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
I am confused as heck right now. Why would he need a press conference?
I'm kind of hoping its to demand a trade so we can get the wheels in motion to get something for this clown.
I read yesterday that Gordon would address the media today. I have no clue. Really wish I knew someone with the team who could say exactly what is going on.
It's not technically a "press conference", there is just no better word to use.
The Hornets wrap up practice at noon and after practice, Gordon will address the media. He need a day to go back and work on how he wa going to spin this with his people. That's why we got Monty say gibberish yesterday and no word from Eric.
I don't even know what I want to hear from him at this point.
"Every fight is a food fight when you're a cannibal."- Demetri Martin
A press conference for spin. Wow.
Joe has said he will have one today. I also read that he refused and Monty had him escorted out, I doubt that though.

New Orleans Hornets General Manager
"I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."
If he says what you want to hear - it is a spin.
If he says he wants to be traded - he is worthless.
If he says he is still hurt - he is worthless
If he doesn't say anything - he is worthless.
This about some up how all of you would take whatever happens?
But he put himself in this corner with his comments and his actions. I feel no sympathy. I just hope he becomes the player he can be, but I am not counting on it
It's not really a press conference as much as availability. I don't see a podium, and I think he'll just be taking questions.
Last time he took questions about a sticky situation, it didn't go well for him--

Andrew McKee
Awesome pedals, until they aren't
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
The Crank Bros. clipless concept it awesome. Its easy to get into and out of, and it sheds mud. These pedals ride great, but they simply don't have the durability to last a full season of shredding. I've had broken wings, snapped spindles, and seized bearings that refused extraction, after I got a rebuild kit. For a similar ride, but bombproof construction, try TIME.

The best of both worlds
I had to wait a few months for these pedals to get restocked. Swoop them up when they become available. Supplies are limited.
Chris Aidan
Not as good as prior generation
The current generation of Mallet 3's dont have the grip and holding power as the previous version. I find myself inadvertently coming up clipped when I never had the issue with the previous model. In all I think that the Crank Brothers system is superior to the SPD design because there are more exit options.
I think the new downhill pedals look like winners because they are much closer to the last generation design, I wish I had held off a couple more months and got the downhill pedal.
Ryan Gibbs
Do you have the clips in for the 20 degree angle and not the 15?
Chris Aidan
I use the 20 degree setting, which is what I have always used on previous generations of CB pedals, so I would expect a similar experience, but I just can't seem to get these to perform the way I would like...

text: For all the stat lover's out there. Are you people really aware how fast Donte, Randy and Ben are? When these guys healthy, they're not only fast. They're the FASTEST at their positions. I think we've only seen the tip of the iceburg on Donte's potential. Some blurbs I've cut and pasted from various articles on the web: "While at Florida State, Moss ran a 4.25 40-yard dash" "(Moss reportedly ran a 4.29 for the Patriots in a recent workout)" "Many claims about Michael Vick running a 4.15 are not true, the fastest electronic 40 time ever recorded by the NFL was Donte' Stallworth's 4.26 this year which broke the old electronic record of 4.29 by Deon Sanders." (On Ben Watson): "Regarded as one of the premier tight ends in the country after a stellar junior campaign, Watson was hampered most of his final season with a nagging ankle injury … Fine athlete with tremendous quickness, boasting the fastest 40-yard dash (4.44) of any tight end in college football"

Water scarcity is worsening due to global climate change in China, where about half of coal reserves are located in water-scarce regions in northwest China. Water shortages will force parts of China to choose between using water for drinking and agriculture or coal-fired power plants, and will further encourage Chinese officials to reduce the country's reliance on coal and shift investments to renewable energy. According to China's 12th five year plan for the coal industry (2011-2015), domestic production and consumption of coal is capped at 3.9 billion tons by the end of 2015.

For the fall-winter 2014-15 ready-to-wear collection by Raf Simons, the petites mains in the Dior ateliers put their savoir-faire to the service of a highly contemporary style, inspired by streetwear codes.
It's a ceremonial procedure that seems to have remained unchanged since Christian Dior showed his very first collection on 12 February 1947. In the Dior ateliers, located in the house's historic heart at 30 Avenue Montaigne, each collection follows the same steps and the same rites, in an eternal cycle of perpetuation of exceptional savoir-faire . From Raf Simons' sketches to the final fittings, at which the designer decides on the last adjustments to each garment as it's readied to be shown, it's the petites mains who give life to the collection, interpreting each detail of the design, constructing the prototypes in white canvas before setting about building each creation stitch by stitch. And yet each new collection remains a whole new challenge for the ateliers to overcome, a call to push the limits of their expertise. This time round, in a spirit of creative fusion, it was the turn of urban codes to shake up the traditions of couture. And the house's different ateliers tackled this exercise of hybrid innovation with masterful aplomb.
And so, in the atelier tailleur , charged with the exacting architecture of jackets and coats, the complex construction of the Bar jackets was given fresh life through a system of lacing borrowed from sportswear, which accentuates the feminine proportions all the bit more. In the atelier flou , where soft dressmaking is the order of the day, this sporty lacing met the delicate and almost forgotten art of corsetry, with a contemporary take in which the dress is shaped to the line of the body, but yet leaves it free to move naturally. Quilting was also reinvented and redefined the architecture of dresses: investing colored crêpes and silks, it became a motif of fantasy, whether imitating the house's famous cannage or the silhouette of a naked man, all while lending cocktail dresses a sporty and glamorous allure that was simply spectacular.

This color is the ultimate bright red and lasts a whole three months on my hair. I apply it on dry hair and keep it all night. As a bonus, it conditions my hair. I cannot live without it! My grocery store stopped carrying it so I will have to buy it online. Their loss.
I have used frivolous fawn several times through the years. It has always done a good job of coloring those gray hairs between shampoos and has left my hair soft and manageable. Would highly recommend this product.
I just turned 41. I live in Staten Island, New York. Thank God, like my MOM, my grays are very limited. However, strands were very,very noticable to me. A few months ago I tried to make a couple of highlights in my hair (I don't remember the products name). It didn't work out, the color started to go from brown to red. So I decided to dye my hair which I have never done, maybe once in high school. I was also nervous, because I relax my hair. I went to a local CVS store, and had all intentions on buying a dark brown hair color. I spoke to a store clerk, and she helped me pick out a brand and a color. The color was "soft black". I was a little nervous about it because my hair was the darkest brown, almost black. Anyways, my friend colored my hair. MY GOD!!!! The shine, the volume, the color, the brilliance, was incredible! It looked like I just walked out a very expensive salon. It even looked like my hair was relaxed and full. I was so impressed. Guess what? No more grays!!! I let my hair air dry, and I was a Rock Star!! The fruit oil concentrate is incredible, I hope you sell it at CVS, because that's where I'm going today to buy it. I will definetely be using your product again. Thank You for my new healthy, just out of the salon look!! Ruthie
Fanci-Full temporary hair color is absolutely the best color product that has ever been on the market! I had a complete hair and makeup makeover several years ago by Kenneth when he opened a salon in Atlanta. His color 'artist' used Fanci-Full on my hair, and it was gorgeous! I couldn't believe how many people told me the color (and style)) was beautiful, and they wanted to know what he used. I hesitated to tell them because I wanted Fanci-Full's secrets all to myself. Brenda Calo Manchester, NH
I have been using Fanci-Full hair color for nearly 20 years.....that's right, 20 years.......now all of a sudden it has turned my hair a terrible color of RED and I hate red hair!!!!! I noticed it when you changed the bottle from the gray/blue bottle to the pink bottle, altho I know that had nothing to do with the 'stuff' inside........anyway, what is different about the product now all of a sudden????

[Brian Yap, Creative Director, Boxing Clever] I would describe myself as an artist, but mostly as an illustrator with a heavy focus on design. Going into art school, the old pen and ink guys were some of my favorites, but growing up in a certain time, graffiti and punk posters were in the same mix of inspiration, and they kind of all blended together to create the way I work now. ♫ guitar music ♫ Recently I started using a tablet to do sketch work. For me, Adobe Ideas was a direct correlation, because immediately I saw that I could make my look with this app. ♫ guitar music ♫ I can send the file back to myself and open it up in Illustrator. Being able to email directly out of the app as a PDF was the first "wow" moment for me. At first I actually did not believe that it was a vector-based file, and when I actually went through that process I was just blown away. From there I was able to have it screen printed at a local shop, which sort of brought full circle the feeling of working on a digital piece but then actually printing it in this very traditional method. The parts of Adobe Ideas that feel so intuitive to me are the fact that it takes over several steps of the process I already use to create artwork. Generally I'm drawing, inking, scanning, and essentially now I just go straight from my basic idea into Adobe Ideas to create the vector artwork. Right now I'm working on an illustration--it's actually an old public domain image of a moth. For the first time, I've actually started playing with the opacity feature and creating sort of a stipple pattern that builds up and makes almost like a painterly quality. But when you zoom out, because you can work at such a small level, it has a very realistic look to it. Working with Adobe Ideas is just so intuitive. It's a very simple program, but I can push it very far. There's a lot of levels to it that let me build layers upon layers upon layers in artwork. Taking the tablet along with me and using Adobe Ideas allowed me to do a poster illustration on a flight from New York to St. Louis. It was a 4½-hour flight, and I was able to finish the whole illustration just sitting there in my airplane seat. It was quite a bumpy ride, too. Beyond the convenience of being able to take the tablet with me anywhere when I can't be in my studio at home, sometimes working mobilely and getting out into different environments for inspiration will take you out of a creative rut. You start to realize you'd rather work in other places than just sitting at your desk at home or in front of your computer. You can take this to a coffee shop or take it out to a park and work outside. I'm very excited about what Adobe Ideas does for me. As an artist it just allows me such a bigger spectrum of tools. It seems like we've sort of just scratched the surface of how this is going to change the way artists work. [Adobe]

About This Episode
Artist and Creative Director, Brian Yap, pushes the boundaries by being among the first to implement Touch app technology to design in a new way. Yap is able to achieve his pen and ink inspired look uncompromised with Adobe Ideas and saves the several steps of sketching, scanning and inking. Adobe Ideas has made his iPad his newest design tool. Although he designs in a cutting edge digital way with the iPad, the work that he creates can be printed in a very traditional method. He enjoys the freedom of working away from his desktop and he sees this as just the beginning of the changes to the way artists work. Check out Brian's Behance page: behance.net/brianyap
