GS' Thundercats Remake Season 1 Review
By God_Spawn Comments
I wanted to do this a week ago but didn't get around to it. So this is my review of the first season of the show and I want to share my likes, dislikes and future hopes and expectations.
The show has a plot- I think this is what really made me happy about the show. As great as the old show was, it was a bit stuffy at times and was just villain of the day in almost every episode. I know the new series had a few episodes like that, but not as bad and I hope it doesn't turn out like the previous show did in that aspect. Like the Duelist episode, I think it was a pointless episode, but it played to show Lion-O's growth even though all it did for the plot was get supplies for the cats even if it was a cool fight and good episode. I think having a solid story line and direction vs a bunch of random little plots and who do we fight today kind of mentality is the main reason I like this more than the original.
Snarf doesn't talk- Oh thank God. Snarf in the old series was whiny and the Snart Snarf didn't help. Even though the new Snarf still says snarf and looks like a pokemon, he does it much less irritating way and Snarf is useful at times in the show.
Artwork- I think the artwork and new character designs is fantastic in the show. The entire show has had high quality visuals and it is almost like watching a movie at times. The artwork has been pretty consistent in this aspect as well. I love the new designs for the characters, I think it is refreshing they got rid of the belly shirt armor 80's Lion-O had. Mumm-Ra's transformation scenes, Cheetara blitzing, the visuals like watching the sword fire energy blasts are just awesome. The only new look I was originally against was Panthro's. He looked like a balding old school samurai kind of guy, but it fit well with his character's attitude and personality and grew on me.
Voice Actors- For the most part, I love the new voice actors. I think Will Friedle, Matthew Mercer, Emmanuelle Chriqui and Kevin Michael Richardson have done awesome jobs fitting their characters. The only actor I really have a problem with is the new Mumm-Ra, it doesn't even come close to the old Mumm-Ra's voice.
Mumm-Ra- Everything, I don't like his new voice, I think he is getting butt whooped too many times. Mumm-Ra in the original at least had some moments, but the new one is just pathetic. He comes on the scene and it's all done out nice and cooling looking then he gets the crap kicked out of him, Leo and Lion-O both did it. I think when they try to inject Mumm-Ra at certain spots of the show like inside the Astral Plane, he was useless.
Thunderkittens- I think the kittens are almost useless in the show compared to the old ones. The old Kittens had those capsules with various effects, but the new ones have this seemingly magical circle flute and WilyKat has this claw like string weapon, looks cool but hasn't done much with it. The kittens only seem to be there for comic relief like after eating the crack I mean candy fruit.
Inconsistency of Lion-O- Lion-O to me just seems to get ridden really high in the show or he gets stomped really bad. He got beat really easy by the Duelist in the original fight then completely turned the tide on him in the second fight with the willows are weak thing. Then he gets beat by Mumm-Ra in episode Tower of Omens, then in the Legacy episode confused me. Is he just reliving his ancestor's memory or was actually just in his ancestor's body and doing the memories himself through the body? Jaga did say if he failed he would be shut out of the book. Anyways he beats Mumm-Ra despite Mumm-Ra being super amped with only one stone then uses two stones and kicks him around even easier. Then his big fight with Tygra, despite all this growth, he got his butt whooped. Tygra really just mopped the floor with him. I understand Tygra is supposed to be superior to him, but I didn't think he would lose that bad. Then 5 minutes later he gets the stone and one shots Mumm-Ra.
Tygra's redemption- I think this was handled kind of poorly. Tygra for the first 10 episodes went between jerk and background character. He played less of a role than Snarf at times or the Kittens. Then all of a sudden he loves Cheetara though no sign of it but a slight stare in episode 2, his mouth open in episode 6 when she ran up the walls to fight Mumm-Ra and then he gets so jealous though they seemed to tease Lion-O and Cheetara for most of the series? Then he gets all jealous, Lion-O gets cocky and then the flash back is shown, Tygra gets even more jealous then proceeds to beat Lion-O easily and gets the girl and he will never betray Lion-O? Tygra is my fave character in the new show, I just hope he gets a bigger role or more use in the show.
Future Hopes and Expectations.
Future characters- I know they have some future characters in the show, I heard they will have Pumrya in the show and I would really like to see if they bring in Bengali. I think he could be interesting and maybe even fight Lion-O or something, sword vs hammer. I'd also like to see if or how they bring back Grune. I think he had potential and was a better adversary than Mumm-Ra at times.
Aging- I heard a rumor over at a different forum site for Thundercats and apparently it is confirmed around Wondercon or before it? The rumor is supposed to be the characters age. I think more specifically the question asked is if Lion-O will be aged. They said Lion-O will age and it will be a natural aging. I for one would be happy but I think it depends how they go about it. If it is just Lion-O who ages, I wouldn't like that, I think it gets rid of development and uses for the other characters who would be just stuck at their original looks and ages like the original series did. I think it gets rid of the Lion-O/Tygra brother angle. I like that Tygra is above his brother (for now) but Lion-O becomes aged to that of like his father or mid twenties and he is taller than Tygra, bigger than Tygra, stronger than Tygra and you expect me to believe Tygra stands a chance now? It just ruins that whole angle which I think has played an important part at certain turns in the series and just throws it all away. I think it would lose the chances of the kittens being a bit older and losing the ability to become useful instead of just jumping around or using the magic circle fruit, even in the old ones they showed a bit of maturity at times. If Tygra and Cheetara are just stuck at the age they are now, it could lose potential abilities they may gain. In the old series Cheetara had that sixth sense and I haven't seen the new one use it yet except a possible hint in episode 6 when Lion-O summons the T-cats and her eyes glow gold and it was only her. I think it loses a chance for her to show or gain more abilities in the use of magic that clerics are supposed to wield. I think Tygra loses the chance for his mental abilities like the old one had. Maybe he must age into, idk same for Cheetara, maybe they have to age into those powers. Tygra was also a brilliant architect and I think showed some engineering ability in the 80's, maybe he will learn from Panthro how to build. He does love his pistol and tried hooking the Book of Omens to the tank even though he failed showing possible hints he could grow into that aspect. The only character that doesn't really need the aging is Panthro, it wouldn't benefit or hurt him that much if at all. I just hate if development focuses on one character and it screws the others out of potential and since there is only like 6-7 main characters, it isn't a whole clan of characters they have to do it to. Since the rumor is natural aging, and if it has been truly confirmed, I hope all the characters show it, not just Lion-O.
So these are my thoughts and hopes for the season and future of the show. I love the new show even more so than the original and I do hope some of the future expectations happen.

Work to construct a depot-cum-yard for Metro Rail on nearly 70 acres in Koyambedu is expected to begin by January.
The facility will be at the heart of the Metro project – housing several critical amenities such as a test track, a stabling yard, depot workshop, an operational control room and an exclusive 110 KV sub-station. The work is expected to be completed by May 2013.
The tender evaluation for the project is complete. As the estimated cost is Rs. 250 crore to Rs.300 crore, it will be tabled before the Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) board, chaired by the Secretary to the Union Ministry of Urban Development, for final clearance.
While some preliminary work has begun on the site, the actual construction of the facility would be taken up only on getting the clearance.
A senior CMRL official said that the imported Metro coaches would first be tested on the tracks inside the depot before operational use.
The operational control room at the depot would serve as the nerve centre of the Metro rail network. Critical sub-systems such as the Automatic Train Protection (ATP) and Automatic Train Supervision (ATS) would be used to monitor traffic along the entire network spanning 45 km.
The ATP would provide a high level of safety by adopting a minimum distance of separation between two trains at any given point of time. It could also automatically apply brakes and enforce speed limits along certain sections.
The automatic signalling and control system would enable more train trips to be operated along the network. While one train is expected to be operated every 15 minutes in 2013 when phase-I becomes functional, the frequency is expected to increase to one train every six minutes by 2016 on completion of the entire project.
According to the detailed project report for Chennai Metro Rail, a link line for transferring rakes from Corridor-I (Chennai Airport-Washermenpet) to Corridor-II (Chennai Central - St. Thomas Mount) would be provided at Alandur.
A secondary depot was also set to come up at Meenambakkam.

Happy Thanksgiving
Don't get stressed if you are cooking and cleaning and have fun with your family and friends. Be safe if you are traveling. Eat too much. Save room for pie.
Happy Thanksgiving Helen and to everyone else too.
My sink is overflowing with dishes but I needed to sit for awhile. I'm pooped.
I splurged and bought a smoked turkey this year instead of a regular one. It was ok but not really worth the extra bucks. There's a lot left over so I hope the kids don't mind eating it for a couple more days.
Is anyone going Black Friday shopping? If I do any, it will be online. I hate the traffic mostly. I don't really trust the tired and crazy people that have been waiting in line all night to get a bargain. No offense to anyone that plans to wait in line all night. : )
Should we check the online plant catalogs for bargains?

"No one spent more time with Barack Obama during his historic first campaign and term than 'body man' Reggie Love, whose professional coming-of-age story--from team captain of Coach K's 2001 NCAA title team through junior Senator Obama's mailroom to becoming the President's confidant, friend, and Chief of Stuff--is like no other"-- Provided by publisher.
A haunting memoir of teaching English to the sons of North Korea's ruling class during the last six months of Kim Jong-il's reign. Every day, three times a day, the students march in two straight lines, singing praises to Kim Jong-il and North Korea: Without you, there is no motherland. Without you, there is no us. It is a chilling scene, but gradually Suki Kim, too, learns the tune and, without noticing, begins to hum it. It is 2011, and all universities in North Korea have been shut down for an entire year, the students sent to construction fields?except for the 270 students at the all-male Pyongyang University of Science and Technology (PUST), a walled compound where portraits of Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il look on impassively from the walls of every room, and where Suki has accepted a job teaching English. Over the next six months, she will eat three meals a day with her young charges and struggle to teach them to write, all under the watchful eye of the regime. Life at PUST is lonely and claustrophobic, especially for Suki, whose letters are read by censors and who must hide her notes and photographs not only from her minders but from her colleagues?evangelical Christian missionaries who don't know or choose to ignore that Suki doesn't share their faith. As the weeks pass, she is mystified by how easily her students lie, unnerved by their obedience to the regime. At the same time, they offer Suki tantalizing glimpses of their private selves?their boyish enthusiasm, their eagerness to please, the flashes of curiosity that have not yet been extinguished. She in turn begins to hint at the existence of a world beyond their own?at such exotic activities as surfing the Internet or traveling freely and, more dangerously, at electoral democracy and other ideas forbidden in a country where defectors risk torture and execution. But when Kim Jong-il dies, and the boys she has come to love appear devastated, she wonders whether the gulf between her world and theirs can ever be bridged. Without You, There Is No Us offers a moving and incalculably rare glimpse of life in the world's most unknowable country, and at the privileged young men she calls "soldiers and slaves."
On the hellish battlefields of World War II Europe, Major Dick Winters led his Easy Company?the now-legendary Band of Brothers?from the confusion and chaos of the D-Day invasion to the final capture of Hitler?s Eagle?s Nest. But Winters?s story didn?t end there. It was only the beginning.

"From the New York Times bestselling author of The Secret Rooms, the extraordinary true story of the downfall of one of England's wealthiest families. Fans of Downton Abbey now have a go-to resource for fascinating, real-life stories of the spectacular lives led by England's aristocrats. With the novelistic flair and knack for historical detail Catherine Bailey displayed in her New York Times bestseller The Secret Rooms, Black Diamonds provides a page-turning chronicle of the Fitzwilliam coal-mining dynasty and their breathtaking Wentworth estate, the largest private home in England. When the sixth Earl Fitzwilliam died in 1902, he left behind the second largest estate in twentieth-century England, valued at more than [ ] billion of today's money--a lifeline to the tens of thousands of people who worked either in the family's coal mines or on their expansive estate. The earl also left behind four sons, and the family line seemed assured. But was it? As Bailey retraces the Fitzwilliam family history, she uncovers a legacy riddled with bitter feuds, scandals (including Peter Fitzwilliam's ill-fated affair with American heiress Kick Kennedy), and civil unrest as the conflict between the coal industry and its miners came to a head. Once again, Bailey has written an irresistible and brilliant narrative history"-- Provided by publisher.
"A personal story of a writer's hunger to be published, the pursuit of that goal, and then the long haul--for Gail Godwin, forty-five years of being a published writer and all that goes with it. A student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1958, Godwin met with Knopf scouts who came to campus every spring in search of new talent. Though her five pages of Windy Peaks were turned down and the novel never completed, she would go on to publish two story collections and fourteen novels, three of which were National Book Award finalists, five of which were New York Times bestsellers"-- Provided by publisher.

On them, there was Mayer's face and one word: HOPE. But just more than a year later--on November 4, 2013--Mayer sat in front those same employees in a huge cafeteria on Yahoo's campus and took the beating of her life.

"Just as polio loomed over the 1950s, and AIDS stalked the 1980s and '90s, posttraumatic stress disorder haunts us in the early years of the twenty-first century. Over a decade into the United States' "global war on terror," PTSD afflicts as many as 30 percent of the conflict's veterans. But the disorder's reach extends far beyond the armed forces. In total, some twenty-seven million Americans are believed to be PTSD survivors. Yet to many of us, the disorder remains shrouded in mystery, secrecy, and shame. Now, David J. Morris -- a war correspondent, former Marine, and PTSD sufferer himself -- has written the essential account of this illness. Through interviews with individuals living with PTSD, forays into the scientific, literary, and cultural history of the illness, and memoir, Morris crafts a moving work that will speak not only to those with the condition and to their loved ones, but also to all of us struggling to make sense of an anxious and uncertain time"-- Provided by publisher.
In October 1969, William Albracht, the youngest Green Beret captain in Vietnam, took command of a remote hilltop outpost called Fire Base Kate, held by only 27 American soldiers and 150 Montagnard militiamen. He found their defenses woefully unprepared. At dawn the next morning, three North Vietnamese Army regiments crossed the Cambodian border and attacked. Outnumbered three dozen to one, Albracht's men held off repeated ground assaults by communist forces with fierce hand-to-hand fighting, air support and a dangerously close B-52 strike. Refusing to allow his men to surrender, Albracht led his troops, including many wounded, off the hill and on a daring night march through enemy lines.
"The first and only diary written by a still-imprisoned Guantánamo detainee. Since 2002, Mohamedou Slahi has been imprisoned at the detainee camp at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. In all these years, the United States has never charged him with a crime. Although he was ordered released by a federal judge, the U.S. government fought that decision, and there is no sign that the United States plans to let him go. Three years into his captivity Slahi began a diary, recounting his life before he disappeared into U.S. custody and daily life as a detainee"-- Provided by publisher.
"For readers of Three Cups of Tea; Eat, Pray, Love; and Wild comes the inspiring story of an ordinary American family that embarks on an extraordinary journey. Wide-Open World follows the Marshall family as they volunteer their way around the globe, living in a monkey sanctuary in Costa Rica, teaching English in rural Thailand, and caring for orphans in India. There's a name for this kind of endeavor--voluntourism--and it might just be the future of travel. Oppressive heat, grueling bus rides, backbreaking work, and one vicious spider monkey. Best family vacation ever! John Marshall needed a change. His twenty-year marriage was falling apart, his seventeen-year-old son was about to leave home, and his fourteen-year-old daughter was lost in cyberspace. Desperate to get out of a rut and reconnect with his family, John dreamed of a trip around the world, a chance to leave behind, if only just for a while, routines and responsibilities. He didn't have the money for resorts or luxury tours, but he did have an idea that would make traveling the globe more affordable and more meaningful than he'd ever imagined: The family would volunteer their time and energy to others in far-flung locales. Wide-Open World is the inspiring true story of the six months that changed the Marshall family forever. Once they'd made the pivotal decision to go, John and his wife, Traca, quit their jobs, pulled their kids out of school, and embarked on a journey that would take them far off the beaten path, and far out of their comfort zones. Here is the totally engaging, bluntly honest chronicle of the Marshalls' life-altering adventure from Central America to East Asia. It was no fairy tale. The trip offered little rest, even less relaxation, and virtually no certainty of what was to come. But it did give the Marshalls something far more valuable: a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to conquer personal fears, strengthen family bonds, and find their true selves by helping those in need. In the end, as John discovered, he and his family did not change the world. It was the world that changed them. Advance praise for Wide-Open World "For anyone who has ever imagined what it would be like to pack up, unplug, pull the kids out of school, and travel around the world, this volunteer adventure is your ticket. Wide-Open World will move, engage, and inspire you, even if you never leave the couch."--Christina Baker Kline, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Orphan Train "John Marshall has done it, written a big, honest, charming memoir about the dream--and reality--of escaping it all, on a round-the-globe boondoggle with your family. In Wide-Open World, the pleasures are deep, the sentiments revelatory, and the voice true and funny. And best of all, you won't have to leave your armchair, or upend your life, to know what it feels like to make your way, with kids, out there in the beautiful, churning world."--Michael Paterniti, author of Love and Other Ways of Dying "Volunteering may not change the world--but as we learn in Wide-Open World, it will change you and your family. Let this heartwarming, hilarious, poignant book be your inspiration: Dare to follow in the Marshall family's footsteps, and give more of your time, effort, and heart than you ever thought possible--and watch the blessings flow!"--Sy Montgomery, author of The Good Good Pig "Compelling, richly detailed, and often laugh-out-loud funny."--Gwen Cooper, author of Homer's Odyssey"-- Provided by publisher.
"From the acclaimed author of A CASE OF CURIOSITIES, Allen Kurzweil's stranger-than-fiction "investigative memoir", detailing his 40-year-search for his boarding school bully who tied him up at the age of twelve and whipped him to the soundtrack of Jesus Christ Superstar, and who went on to lead a mad-cap life of international crime and financial fraud"-- Provided by publisher.
"Robbie Rogers knows better than most that keeping secrets can crush you. But for much of his life Robbie lived in paralyzing fear that sharing his big secret would cost him the love of his family and his career as a professional soccer player. So he never told anyone what was destroying his soul, both on and off the field. While the world around Robbie was changing with breathtaking speed, he knew that for a gay man playing a professional team sport it might as well be 1958. He could be a professional soccer player. Or he could be an out gay man. He couldn't do both. Then last year, at the age of twenty-five and after nearly stepping away from a brilliant career--one that included an NCAA Championship, winning the MLS Cup, and competing in the Olympics--he chose to tell the truth. But instead of facing the rejection he feared, he was embraced--by his family, by his teammates, and his fans. In Coming Out to Play, Robbie takes readers on his incredible journey from terrified teenager to a trailblazing out and proud professional soccer player for the L.A. Galaxy, who has embraced his new identity as a role model and champion for those still struggling with the secrets that keep them from living their dreams." -- Publisher's description.
"Between 1995 and 1999, Patton Oswalt lived with an unshakable addiction. It wasn't drugs, alcohol or sex: it was film. After moving to L.A., Oswalt became a huge film buff (or as he calls it, a sprocket fiend), absorbing classics, cult hits, and new releases at the New Beverly Cinema. Silver screen celluloid became Patton's life schoolbook, informing his notion of acting, writing, comedy, and relationships. Set in the nascent days of L.A.'s alternative comedy scene, Oswalt's memoir chronicles his journey from fledgling stand-up comedian to self-assured sitcom actor, with the colorful New Beverly collective and a cast of now-notable young comedians supporting him all along the way"--Provided by publisher.
Dancing With the Stars sensation Amy Purdy reveals the story of how losing her legs led her to find a spiritual path. When the Las Vegas native was just nineteen, she contracted bacterial meningitis and was given less than a two percent chance of survival. In a near-death experience, she saw three figures who told her: "You can come with us, or you can stay. No matter what happens in your life, it's all going to make sense in the end." In that moment, Amy chose to live.
Every autumn, Kenny Porpora would watch his mother scribble heartbroken messages on balloons, one for each family member they'd lost to addiction, and release them into the sky above Long Island. As the number of balloons grew, his mother fell deeper into alcoholism and depression, with daytime television her only respite from the sadness around them. When their house was foreclosed upon, Kenny's mother fled with him, his brother, and their beloved dog to the Arizona desert. There, they joined up with his drug-addicted uncle in his quixotic search for a better life, always seemingly one step away from the lucky break that would lift them out of poverty. What followed instead was an outlaw adolescence of constant upheaval, leaving young Kenny to outrun his family's tragic past. In the wake of unspeakable loss, Kenny turned to the mentors, writers, and poets he found to rebuild the family he lost, and eventually graduated from the Ivy League with a new life.
The lead singer of The Dresden Dolls reveals how she has used the power of social networking to meet basic survival needs, make friends, and strengthen communities by raising awareness and funds.
Focusing on a little-known event in American history that has long been kept quiet, a dramatic account exposes a secret FDR-approved American internment camp in Texas during World War II where hundreds of prisoners were exchanged for other Americans behind enemy lines in Japan and Germany.

How To Remove Fiberglass From Skin
Men who work with fiberglass want to learn about how to remove fiberglass from skin. Fiberglass makes great insulation for keeping rooms warm in the winter and cool during the winter, but it's not cool to have in your skin. In fact, it's a wee bit painful. That's like an teensy piece of glass in your hand. But, it's actually not too difficult to remove the fiberglass from your skin.
What you need:
- Tape
- Maybe duct tape
- Warm bath
- Salt
- Regular tape. Try taking tape and gently put it on the area of skin where you need to remove the fiberglass. Pull the tape slowly off and see if you get most of the fiberglass pieces out. Don't press the piece of tape too snug on to your skin to remove the fiberglass.
- Using duct tape. If the regular tape does not work, you can use duct tape. Cut out a small strip of duct tape and lightly put it on the area of skin with the fiberglass poking. Gently take the duct tape off a few seconds after applying it to remove the fiberglass.
- Soaking in the tub. The other thing you can do is to run a warm bath with salt in it and soak for a bit. After being in the tub for a little while, your pores open up allowing the fiberglass to remove itself from your skin. This should do the trick of removing fiberglass from your skin and is a comfortable way to remove the fiberglass.

High Point Solutions Stadium is the football stadium at Rutgers University in Piscataway, New Jersey. It is located on the Busch Campus at Rutgers, and overlooks the Raritan River to the South. The stadium was opened as Rutgers Stadium on September 3, 1994,[3] when the Rutgers Scarlet Knights hosted the Kent State University Golden Flashes. It currently seats 52,454 spectators after a 2009 expansion.
High Point Solutions Stadium underwent significant reconstruction from 2008 to 2009 to increase its capacity to 52,454. The stadium features two 5,000-seat upper decks on each side of the playing field, as well as 968 loge and club seats on the mezzanine level of the East side of the stadium. A two-story press box sits on the mezzanine level of the West side of the stadium.[4] Electronic ribbon scoreboards spanning the length of the field along the bottom of both upper decks were installed prior to the 2008 season, which compliment the video scoreboard in the South end zone. Also located in the South end zone is the Brown Football Recruiting Pavilion and Welcome Center, part of the 2008-2009 expansion project.
The stadium also features light stanchions that allow for night games, a cannon for firing when Rutgers scores, concessions, and restrooms. Until 2004, the field maintained a grass surface, but has since been replaced with Field Turf.
The first intercollegiate football game, in which Rutgers beat Princeton by a score of 6–4 on November 6, 1869, was played at College Field, which is now the location of the College Avenue Gymnasium and its parking lot.[5] From 1891 to 1938, the Rutgers football team played at Neilson Field on the College Avenue Campus in New Brunswick, New Jersey.[5]
With the aid of grants from the Works Progress Administration, and after three years of construction, the original Rutgers Stadium was completed in 1938. The first game in the new stadium was against Hampden-Sydney in front of an estimated crowd of about 10,000 persons. Rutgers was victorious in the contest, defeating Hampden-Sydney by a score of 32–0.[6] The stadium was dedicated on November 5, 1938 in a game against Princeton. Rutgers would go on to win the game by a score of 20-18. It was the first time Rutgers had defeated Princeton since the first ever intercollegiate football game in 1869.[7]
On September 27, 1969, Rutgers and Princeton met for The Centennial Game at old Rutgers Stadium, which was played in front of 31,000 fans. Rutgers would win by a score of 29-0, their 10th win in 60 tries against the Tigers.[7]
The current stadium was built on the site of the original old Rutgers Stadium. During the construction of the current stadium, the Rutgers Scarlet Knights football team played the 1993 season at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, a facility operated by the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority (NJSEA). The NJSEA financed the construction of the stadium via the issuance of bonds.[3] The Scarlet Knights had previously played several games at Giants Stadium, including the first college football game hosted at that venue: a 47-0 victory over Columbia University on October 23, 1976.[8]
The new Rutgers Stadium was originally constructed to accommodate 41,500 fans at its maximum capacity and was officially opened on September 3, 1994, in a game against Kent State University. Light stanchions were integrated into the design so night games could be played. A two-story press box that fits 200 reporters was also constructed and is still in use today. A free-standing scoreboard was built near the south end zone, which did not originally contain any seating areas. The original design of the stadium replicated the shape of a horseshoe, with the "open" end located near the south end zone.[3]
Heralded by many newspapers, sports writers, and Rutgers fans as the "most important game in Rutgers history", on November 9, 2006, a then record crowd of 44,111[9] attended a football game between the Scarlet Knights and the Louisville Cardinals at Rutgers Stadium. The Scarlet Knights were ranked #15 and the Louisville Cardinals #3 in the nation in the Associated Press poll at the time. The game drew the ESPN's third-largest TV audience for a college football game.[10] The official attendance exceeded the normal maximum capacity of the stadium due to the temporary addition of bleachers in the South end zone of the stadium. The bleachers were used to seat additional students.
In January 2008, the Board of Governors of Rutgers University announced a $102 million stadium expansion project in order to increase the stadium's seating capacity to nearly 56,000.[11] However, the scale of the project was slightly reduced due to a poor economy and financial difficulties, resulting in a new maximum capacity of precisely 52,454.[4]
The first phase of the project, which included the addition 968 club seats and related infrastructure to the East mezzanine level of the stadium, was completed on time and within budget for the 2008 football season.[12] The second phase included the addition of approximately 11,500 seats to the previously "open" South end zone, as well as supplementary restrooms and concession stands to the southern end of the stadium.[12] The second phase of the project also involved the addition of a large scoreboard in the South end zone, which is 38' tall by 112' wide, for a total surface area of 4,256 sq ft.[13] The old scoreboard (since demolished) was 22' tall by 30' wide, for a total surface area of 660 sq ft (61 m2). The sound system was also enhanced as a part of the second phase of the expansion.[4]
In addition to adding seats, concession stands, and bathrooms to the south end zone, the stadium expansion project called for a new entrance off River Road.[4] The facade of the entrance is adorned with brownstone, and as of May 2, 2010, was not fully completed.
On July 14, 2009, the Rutgers Board of Governors unanimously approved a $5 million donation specifically appropriated for a recruiting lounge in the newly expanded end zone. The lounge had been included in the original expansion design, but was later deferred after the Board of Governors revised the expansion financing plan. The donation was provided by two Rutgers alumni. The lounge was named after one of the donors, Greg Brown, who is the President and Co-CEO of Motorola. The second donor requested anonymity. Construction on the lounge commenced in August 2009, and was completed in December of that same year.[4][14]
The facility seats approximately 300 people and serves as a multi-purpose center for the university. The pavilion hosts and accommodates recruits around the year and also holds fundraising events for potential donors. The center is also used during tours for prospective students.[4]
The $102 million price tag of the expansion project was to originally be financed via private fundraising ($30 million) and the issuance of bonds ($72 million).[15] The private fundraising effort, however, fell significantly short of the original goal.[16]
This situation prompted the Board of Governors of Rutgers University to approve a new financing plan for the stadium expansion in which the entire amount of $102 million was to be borrowed. Specifically, the university issued $85 million in bonds, and borrowed the remaining $17 million by way of low-interest commercial paper.[12] In addition, a few aspects of the stadium expansion project were scaled back, including a reduction in the number of new seats (the original plan called for 14,000 seats, but only 11,500 were actually added). Also included in the original expansion plan was the construction of new locker rooms in the South end zone. The construction of these locker rooms was deferred to a later date.[12]
For decades, Rutgers Stadium had been the name of the school's football facility. However, in June 2010, Rutgers University put up for sale the naming rights to the stadium in order to bring in much needed revenue. Rutgers hired Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment and IMG College to act as agents in making a deal, who have negotiated deals on the Nets New Jersey and New York arenas.[17] On June 22, 2011, it was announced that High Point Solutions, based in Sparta, New Jersey, had purchased the rights, and that the stadium would be known as High Point Solutions Stadium.
The stadium attendance records were repeatedly broken throughout the 2006 and 2007 football seasons as the football program experienced a drastic resurgence. On October 18, 2007, a record 44,267 spectators attended a game in which the Scarlet Knights played against the then #2 ranked South Florida Bulls.[9][18] The Scarlet Knights would go on to win that game, and the attendance on that night would be the highest ever prior to the 2008-2009 stadium expansion.
The new record was set in the 2014 Big 10 Conference opener against the Penn State, when 53,774 people packed the venue to witness the first game in Big 10 Conference play after transferring from the American Athletic Conference before the 2014 season.[19] This record still stands today. The top 5 games in terms of attendance at Rutgers Stadium are listed below:
|Game result

|Nov. 29, 2012
|Louisville 20, Rutgers 17
|Nov. 1, 2014
|Wisconsin 37, Rutgers 0
In addition to football, Rutgers Stadium has also hosted NCAA tournament soccer and lacrosse games, including the NCAA Division I Men's Lacrosse Championship games in 1998, 2001, and 2002. It is also worth noting that, prior to 1994, the original Rutgers Stadium hosted the NCAA Division I Men's Lacrosse Championship games in 1974, 1978, 1983, 1987, and 1990.
On September 25, 2005, Rutgers Stadium was the site of a lecture delivered by the Dalai Lama.[24]
Every first weekend in December, Rutgers Stadium plays hosts to several championship games in the NJSIAA state football playoffs. The stadium is one of two venues that hosts multiple championship games in one weekend (MetLife Stadium is the other). However, unlike MetLife Stadium that hosts games on Friday nights and Saturday afternoons, Rutgers hosts games on Sundays in addition to its Friday and Saturday games (MetLife Stadium is unavailable for Sunday games due to its NFL commitments).

Tristan is a passionate artist striving to be a master. He loves reading books about philosophy & psychology. Much of his improvement can be attributed to books such as MASTERY by Robert Greene. He's now working on his composition skills as he consider it a challenge/skill he hasn't fully immersed himself in . He believes that an artist doesn't stop growing and thus the style is and will forever be changing just like the times. He's come a long way since 2007. He hopes to someday inspire and mentor the next generation of artists and pass on the legacy of "Sefl-Efficacy" (see psychologist Albert Bandura) so that artists may shed their potential and in turn be masters worthy of praise. He dreams big and believes that pain, struggle and challenges is just part of the equation to attain greatness. He has recently adopted Leonardo Da Vinci's motto "Ostinato Rigore" or stubborn rigor because he believes that with a tenacious practice habits he'll someday belong with the best of the best.Dec 22nd

The other test, called the reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction or RT-PCR test (commonly called PCR), chemically multiplies the amount of viral RNA in a blood sample, which makes it easier to estimate the amount of virus in the body.

Kidney Stones
A friend of mine developes kidney stones annually. Some large, some smaller.
Has anyone here ever had the "pleasure" of these incredibly painful stones? And if so, how long before you were o.k. again?
My son has these quite offen, they do a number on your system and wears you down, do a search on this forun for kidney stones there are a few post, not alot you can do but try and get throu the pain till it passes , some people swear by the asparagus treatment, I plan on bringing this up to my son the next time he has one with that kind of pain you will try anything, drink plenty of water to flush out your kidneys and help the stone pass, check out what others have to say on the search , good luck to your friend if this is the frist boult there will probley be more, they also run in families.
I have suffered from kidney stones for over 10 years now. I have passed around 100 stones(yes 100). I have also seen 5 different Urologist. They know nothing! They finally tell you this after they sqeeze as much $ out of you. Finally i did alot of research online and at the library. Their are several types of stone but the most common is calcium which makes up 85% of all stones. These are the non treatable ones. Yes they are genetic and no there is no cure. Taking magnesium everyday helps. I tend to get them less often. I went to my local health food and vitatmin store and found a herbal tea that works wonders. It is a product fromBlue Moon Herbal Products. The bag is labeled Hydrangea Root, Gravel Root,& Marshmallow Root. It has dissolved many stones for me and you can drink it to prevent them. The tea is aweful. My friends call it my swamp water. That is exactually what it looks, smells, & taste like. But drinking it is way better then passing a stone. When a stone passes it is worse then labor pains. At least with labor pains the pain will end in a few minutes. Kidney stones dont end till you get to a hospital and they give you strong drugs. I have had 2 stones surically removed. So i know mine are calcium. I also want to add that certain foods are bad and cause more stones. They say to stay away from salt and red meat. However i noticed that i passed alot when i eat alot of chocolate. Several years ago my DH gave me a year subscription to Ethal M chocolate. I passed alot of stones that year. I hope this information helps especially the tea. It has really helped me.
I have had two kidney stones in the last two years. My stones were calcium oxalate and kidney stones run in my family.
My urologist said to drink at least 2-3 liters of water each day to keep the kidney's flushed out, make sure to get enough calcium from food (research seems to indicate this is more effective than supplements), and avoid high oxalate foods, i.e. chocolate, tea, rhubarb, strawberries, and a few others I can't think of right now.
I did a 48 hour urine collection. Yes, I had to collect ALL urine for the 48 hours and then send two samples to a lab for testing. The test tells you the concentrations of such things as uric acid, calcium excretion and many other things that can help in knowing how to avoid or prevent kidney stones.
Hope this helps!
I was hospitalized twice with stones, but passed them on my own - in the hospital. The pain never stops, and is just awful.
I read a book by Nancy Snyderman that said the stones form at night, and you should drink water before you go to bed at night, and more water when you get up to go to the bathroom. I do that. It may sound severe to those who have not suffered with the stones, but those of us who have felt the pain realize that it is no big deal. You can train you body easily.
My stones both came at a time that I was exercising heavily, and not drinking enough water. Even so, my doctor reduced my Calcium pills to 1,000. I am female by the way.
I am older now, and think that through the years when I had debilitating cramps, they were actually stones. Also my pain was in the front for most of the time.

Founded by Captain J Glynn-Jones and David Davies of Llandinam - Wales' first millionaire and the builder of Barry Docks - the first boys' club was opened in Treharris in 1922. Glynn-Jones, as welfare officer of the David Davies' Ocean Group of Collieries, was faced by the problem of how to help and support adolescent collier boys who, after their shifts in the mines, found themselves with little to do apart from hang around street corners and get into mischief. His solution was to create a series of clubs where boys could be given something positive to occupy their minds - and hands.
The original Treharris Boys Club was quickly followed by others in Nantymoel, Ton Pentre, Treorchy, Wattstown and Nine Mile Point.
"They were led by full-time youth workers on a scale unparalleled elsewhere in Great Britain, even during a time of economic depression. Captain Glynn wanted every boy to be a member of a club which provided healthy exercises, cultural activities and discipline." (Timeline, A History of the Boys' Club Movement in Wales)
Realising the need for greater unity, the various clubs formed themselves into The South Wales Federation of Boys' Clubs in August 1928, and in due course the organisation grew to include St Athan Boys' Village and, after the Second World War, the Abercrave Adventure Centre. These two establishments began to offer week-long activity programmes, specifically geared to the need of young people - no longer just collier boys. In 1947, the organisation extended its operations across the whole of Wales, becoming The Welsh Association of Boys' Clubs.
The changing needs of society caused serious financial difficulties in the 1980s and this resulted in the Association of Boys' Clubs having to change its role and even its name. The St Athan and Abercrave sites were sold off and the Welsh Federation of Boys' and Girls' Groups was came into existence in 1992.
"We held a meeting at Bettws Boys' Club in October 1991," says David Allen-Oliver, the first Chief Executive of the new organisation. "84 clubs joined the new organisation which was recognised by the Charity Commission the following year. And since then it's gone from strength to strength."
The new organisation has developed and grown and has now become one of the most important voluntary youth organisations in Wales. Just as the original organisation did back in the 1920s it continues to offer opportunities for young people through a wide range of educational, sporting, social and cultural activities. Captain Glynn-Jones' vision is still alive and, more importantly, still working.

Good article Phil, the organisation (now called Clubs for Young People Wales) has recently produced the book Timeline 28-08 A History of the Boy's Club Movement in Wales. Copies are available from Clubs for Young People Wales headquarters if people would like to find out more about the history.
An excellent article Phil, giving a potted history. I myself have been involved at various times with the organisation over the last ten years and the people involved do a sterling job, sometimes on limited resources in both terms of time and monies.
I would heartily recommend to people, if they are so inclined to help out or enquire about aiding this movement, either in time, expertise or through donations. In what can be cynical times, when we reference the youth culture of today, highlighting the work of organisations such as this and their members can only be applauded?
Hi, forgive me my poor language, I am from Poland currently studying Photography in Cardiff.
It is great article, also amazing part of Wales history. I am doing my Major Project about Boys Village (former St Athan Camp) and as part of my project I am collecting people's stories related to Boys Village. This place is/was amazing! If anyone got some stories to say it would be nice to hear it!
All the best
Hi, my father passed away last week and in looking through his collection of memoribilla I found a badge for St Athan Boys Village. I think he went there just before or during the 2nd World War. Does anyone know if there are records where I can trace his stay?
Thank you
Hi Geoff, the Boys Clubs are still in existence and have their HQ in Cardiff - they're now called Clubs for Young People Wales. If you put that into Google I'm sure you'll come up with an address/telephone number. I don't know what records they hold but contact with them is always a good place to start.
How would i come about, buying this area?
Have I read it wrong or did I imagine it? But somewhere along the line I seem to have heard that the old Boys village at St Athan is for sale again. True or false?
