From the Rabbit's Gone Missing blog, a wandering reflection arriving at a "found poem." The muse? Our show with Marie Howe. Simply marvelous:
One night when I couldn't sleep, I decided to listen to the latest On Being podcast, which was a really arresting conversation between Krista Tippett and a poet I'd never heard of, Marie Howe. There were so many words, lines, thoughts that stood out to me as I listened, and I kept thinking, I should write these down. But then they were more than just thoughts; it all sounded like a poem to me.
When I was about 19 or so, I found a book of poems in the library by the amazing Annie Dillard, who'd written a book that had recently blown me away (Pilgrim at Tinker Creek, of course). Annie handled words like a cross between an athlete who performs stunning feats without a second thought [apparently] and an astronaut who sits on a thin ledge between life and death and fixes some billion dollar spaceship part with a jerryrigged toothbrush. (Okay, that sentence proves that I'm not Annie Dillard. w00t!)
My point simply being that Annie could've been putting out loads of volumes of profound, elegant poetry made of her own words if she wanted to, but instead, she put out this odd and brilliant book of "found" poems. Basically, she played around with scraps of words and phrases from the random sources she so delights in (e.g., an 1800s manual of boys' projects, a Russian hunting memoir, van Gogh's letters, the Apocrypha) and found the poetry in them. Anyway, I recalled the book and thought, Why not?
As Annie says in her Author's Note, "I did not write a word of it." In other words, Marie Howe said all of this. I might have contributed punctuation; I might not have.
The Poetry of Ordinary Time
an interview with Marie Howe (a found poem)I.
The parables and the stories—
all those great old stories—
so much mystery and complexity.
The story's all there, but we know
that the story, the real story
is inarticulate.The spaces in between.
You can hold what can't be said.
The mystery of being alive;
a basket of words that feels inevitable.
A counter spell.This is what we all need to walk around with.
Maybe the first poem
was a lullaby a woman sang to her child,
the incantatory everything is okay, everything is okay, everything is okay.
We prayed for rain, or we thanked the gods for the corn,
or we sang to the deer we were going to catch.
Its roots can never wholly be pulled out from
sacred ground.Language is almost all we have left
of action in the modern world,
unless we're in Syria or we're in Iraq.
Action has become what we say.In a big house different people experience different things.
Trauma shatters a unity. You are now in separate shards.
As much as you want to be all in the same room,
trying to speak to another,
shard to shard.When I was a girl, I would have to go to the backyard and
pick up
every cigarette butt.
I would think of Saint Teresa.
Just do every act as a prayer.
Then my father would come out and say,
You've missed this one, this one, and this one.
Everything in the world is trying to tell us this now,
even as we're speeding up and speeding up,
and speeding up, and staring into our screens.
It hurts to be present.Rinsing the glass
under the water.
Slow down enough to just
simply be there.
My daughter used to say to me,
Mom, slow down. If you slow down, you're going to get there faster.
Just watch. See that white car? Slow down.
Then we would get to the place and she'd say,
See, the white car is behind us.When you're very sad,
the only thing to do is to go learn something.Write 10 observations of the actual world.
Just tell me what you saw this morning
in two lines.
I saw a water glass on a brown tablecloth.
And the light came through it in three places.
No metaphor.
You have to actually endure the thing itself,
which hurts us for some reason.
It hurts us.We want to say,
It was like this. It was like that.
We want to look away.
And then they say,
There's nothing important enough.
And then its whole thing
is that point.
No abstractions, no interpretations.Then this amazing thing happens.
Clinkety, clank, clank, clank, onto the table pours all this stuff, and it thrilling.
The slice of apple, and then that gleam of the knife, and the sound of the trashcan closing, the maple tree, the blue jay.
it almost comes clanking into the room.II.
Last spring,
somebody was drawing on the sidewalk in blue chalk.
All it said was HAPPINESS,
with a big blue arrow, THIS WAY.
One day,
I was waiting for my daughter and her friends to
get off one bus to get on another.
was the big blue chalk HAPPINESS,
and a big circle drawn on the sidewalk said HERE.
And everybody who walked by stood in the circle. We did too.
It's the
This is the whole
Why would I compare that to anything
when it's
There's a silence
in the center of everything.
Maybe that's the thing
we are afraid of.
Silence is the heart.
It has everything in it:
our death;
our life—the universes beyond
this universe, the galaxies.
The cricket, the snow.
Such a relief;
you can rest in
it.The robots were going to take over
and the machines were going to take over.
Just last week it occurred to me: They have.
It's just different from what we expected.
You think evil is going to come into your houses
wearing big black boots.
It doesn't come like that.
It begins in the language.What face do you look into more
than any other face in your life?
I gaze into that face.
I do what it tells me to do.
It's different from what we expected.
It's like sugar.There's this new firmament,
and there's no one in charge.
I don't even know what I mean by soul.
I don't know anymore.Real time is true;
redundancy that's happening now.
Remember those swaths of time between high holy seasons:
Ordinary time.
Nothing dramatic is happening;
this is where we're living.Finally we're stopped long enough
to feel ourselves alive.To move through the world transparently—
that would be a relief.
All I know is that
things have happened that I don't understand
that feel like the most important things
that have ever happened to me.The unendurable happens.
People we love die;
we're going to die—
one day we are going to have to leave our children,
leave the plants, the sunlight,
the rain and all that.
It's unendurable.Art knows that
we're both living and dying
at the same time.
It can hold it.I thought, I can either let this crack my heart
open or closed.
I turned around and the
billion other people on this earth who've
lost a person they love—there they all were.
I turned around: I just joined you.Welcome. There were millions of people;
I was glad to be with them.
We join each other;
We're not alone.Holding human stories up:
it's so miraculous.Everything is shared.

I really do hope we get him.
. |
The more I think about it, the more a three-way trade of RFA makes sense..
Golden State get Landry- giving them a frontcourt rotation of Bogut, Lee, Landry and Tyler
Phoenix get Rush- they've currently got Dudley (who is really more of a SF) and Brown at SG- Rush starts at SG, move Dudley to SF
New Orleans get Lopez- may as well get some value return on the asset (Landry), get to look at a 24yo C
..presuming all contracts small-ish (1-2 years)..
"I'd like to send this letter to the Prussian consulate in Siam by aeromail. Am I too late for the 4:30 auto-gyro?"
I really do hope we get him.
He is the big that we need, then we'll be good
New Orleans Pelicans-Seattle Seahawks-Atlanta Braves-Anaheim Ducks
RIP HunnyB
This fits HunnyB/FlyGirl so well- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyzTiSEfM00
i really hope demps can pull it off
starting lineup of:
vasquez (at least to start the season)
with a bench of: rivers (prob will start at some point in the season), miler, anderson, smith, thomas, dyson, x, depending on trades of course.
i would love that team.
My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
I still think we're going to see an Anderson-Davis frontcourt, not that it really matters. It's all gonna depend on the matchup. Regardless, a frontcourt of Davis, Anderson, Lopez, and Smith would be fantastic. One of the best in the league for years to come, IMO.
"Every fight is a food fight when you're a cannibal."- Demetri Martin
I'd love him as our back, it just helps having a big body like him
Lopez would be a great off the bench 5, but guy shouldn't be a starter. Dude has one of the worst assist to TO ratios ever, and only had like 7 assists all year. He is slow footed and though he can defend the post, he is a slightly disappointing rebounder and can't really score well. Where Davis and Anderson will (hopefully) be fringe all stars, Lopez is a fringe starter. However, all that aside, he would be great depth.
What was his injury? ACL?
After reading the Suns board I dont know if i want him anymore especially if his price is anything above 4mill per year.
Past tense is the form of language used to refer to an event, transaction, or occurrence that did happen or has happened, or an object that existed, at a point in time before now. Compare with present tense, which refers to an event, transaction or occurrence which is happening now (or at the present time), or an object that currently exists.
If we want to be technical, Woj said the Hornets 'have worked hard'. He didn't they say they're 'working hard'.
Ummmmmmmmm, no thanks.
I've never been high on Robin Lopez but a change of scenery might help him. I don't guess he'd be bad off the bench. I would just hope the $ wouldn't be too crazy.
I have not been a huge fan. However, he is much better than anything else available at the position and has the potential at 24 to get better.

Santa Claus Costumes
Halloween Mart is a company that was first established back in 1994. This was the first online source for Halloween costumes and costumes for other major holidays and events throughout the year. The Halloween Mart became a popular store for costumes due to the great customer service the business provided and the outstanding selection of Halloween costumes, elf Christmas costumes and Santa Claus costumes. People flocked to the Halloween Mart for all costume needs because of the affordable prices as well since the Halloween Mart sold its costumes at prices below regular retail. Christmas costumes for adults and children are a popular costume choice of Halloween Mart customers. A Christmas tree costume is a costume that can just as easily be worn for Halloween as for Christmas, so clients of the Halloween Mart buy elf Christmas costumes and Santa Claus costumes to use for occasions other than just the Christmas season.

Description of Research Expertise
Research Interests- Roles of chromatin structure and epigenetic controls in eucaryotic gene activation
- Roles of mRNA-protein interactions in control of eucarytic mRNA stability and expression
Key words: Chromatin structure, histone modifications, Growth Hormone gene, pituitary, placenta, transcriptional controls, mRNA expression, αCP RNA binding proteins, mRNA stability, globin mRNA.
Description of Research
Roles of chromatin structure and epigenetic controls in eucaryotic gene activation
In eukaryotic organisms gene regulation is dependent upon developmentally controlled alterations in chromatin structure. Epigenetic modifications in histones and DNA result in selective activation of gene expression profiles. In many cases these modifications in chromatin structure result in long-range control of gene promoters, reaching over hundreds of kbs. Understanding how these epigenetic modifications are themselves controlled and the mechanisms by which they selectively activate and/or silence cohorts of genes is central to our understanding of development and cellular differentiation. We are approaching these questions using as a model the human Growth Hormone gene cluster. The genes in this cluster are robustly expressed, physiologically and developmentally controlled, and highly specific to either pituitary somatotropes or placental syncytiotrophoblasts. These controls are conserved between mouse and human. Thus our studies are heavily dependent on the use of transgenic mouse models and are complemented where appropriate with in vitro chromatin analyses and cell culture models.
Roles of mRNA-protein interactions in control of eucaryotic mRNA stability and expression
At any given level of gene transcription, the final level of expression for a particular gene can be altered over a span of several orders of magnitude by modulation in mRNA stability or translational control. For example the half-lives of specific mammalian mRNAs can be as short as 15 minutes and as long as several days. Such post-transcriptional controls are dependent on sequence specific interactions between RNA binding proteins and target mRNAs. We are using a series of model mRNAs and expression systems to explore the role of a specific and highly abundant family of mRNA binding proteins, the αCPs, in mRNA stabilization and a variety of additional post-translational controls. These studies are based on in vitro RNA-protein interaction assays and cell-based expression models. Comprehensive studies of αCP functions are being carried out using immunoaffinity RNP-isolation, Affymetrix chip expression platforms, artificial tethering of RNA binding proteins to mRNAs, and biochemical analysis of RNP sub-localization. We are testing novel models by which mRNAs are stabilized by alterations in the stability of their 3' polyA tails. These analyses of mRNA decay are also revealing novel pathways of mRNA surveillance pathways and mRNA structural modification that impact on the expression of both wild-type and mutant gene expression.
Activation of placental hormone gene expression.
The hGH multigene locus contains a subset of GH-related genes expressed robustly and exclusively in the placenta. We are able to model this expression in transgenic mice carrying the intact hGH gene cluster with remote regulatory elements. Our current studies are aimed at identifying the cis-acting chromatin-based determinants of this highly restricted and developmentally controlled pattern of expression. These studies are carried out in transgenic mice and in ES and trophoblast stem (TS) cells derived from our various mouse lines carrying the hGH locus and addtional site-directed mutations. These studies, in conjunction with our studies of the hGH locus in the pituitary comprise an integrated approach to a chromatin locus with multiple developmental expression profiles and potentials.
Rotation Projects
Lab rotations are available in the areas of chromatin structure/gene activation and in the area of mRNA-protein interactions/mRNA stability control. Studies making extensive use of mouse transgenic models, stem cell cultures, and a variety of in vitro approaches can be explored. Students are encouraged to contact Dr. Liebhaber directly to discuss potential projects for rotation studies.

Washing Tips
Pre-Treat Your New Fabrics!
It is very important to treat/ wash your new fabrics exactly as you plan to treat/wash them after the garment or home décor item is made. Even dry cleaning can produce some shrinkage. We recommend you test a 4" x 4" square of your new fabric if you are at all unsure how it will react to your chosen laundering method. If you always test the same sized square, you will be able to check the percentage of shrinkage.

To prepare for the procedure, your doctor may ask you to:
On the day of the procedure:
Your doctor may give you a sedative to reduce your discomfort.
You will be asked to lie down on an x-ray table. A numbing medication will be sprayed on the back of your throat. A thin, flexible tube will then be placed into your mouth. The tube will be gently passed down your throat. The tip of the tube will pass through your stomach to your small intestines.
A special dye will be sent through the tube. You may be asked to move your body. This will help coat the walls of your intestine with the dye. The images of your intestine will then be taken.
A tube may also be placed in your rectum. The tube will allow some of the contrast dye to come out of your body. This step can reduce bloating in your abdomen.
After your doctor has taken all of the images, the tubes will be removed.
About 60 minutes
You will have discomfort when the tube is inserted. You may also have some bloating and discomfort due to the contrast dye.
Right after the procedure, the staff will bring you to the rest room. You will remain at the care center for about 30 minutes. Then you will be able to go home. If you were given a sedative, you will need someone drive you home.
When you return home, resume medications as instructed by your doctor.
Call your doctor if any of these occurs:
If you have an emergency, call for emergency medical services right away.

Uh, oh ... who thought he or she could fool Daisy? In for a really bad drive home ... glad I'm not you hoomin!
That is one amazing bun, though! Just awesome! - 12:14 PM

Just go with the flow, Daisy!
Ditto for the poor Vet. - 12:52 PM
- brandi b said...
Of what use is Dr. Doopid Schtinkee Hoomin's expensive education if he cannot perform the simplest tasks, like ear scratches and nose rubs? Or getting a treat from the frig? This vet may deserve a thumping, a cat scratch and a vicious bite from a big mean dog, at the very LEAST.
Daisy is MAGNIFICENT!!!! She should have little girls prancing around her throwing flower petals and craisins at her feetsies. - 1:03 PM
- anonymous said...
6Bs, you brought this up so I blame it on you, but whoever has been Driving Miss Daisy has some explaining to do. And, alas, lovely as this bunny is, it terrifies me to see them on high vet tables with nothing be tile to hit which ever way they jump.
- speedyrabbit said...
look at the amazing size of Miss Daisy,she could give you good thumping
- Fleetie said...
Daisy is a fine rabbit indeed, and clearly an accomplished Disapprover.
I would not like to be in the shoes of Dr. Doopid Schtinkee-Hoomin right now. DDSH is in for a THUMPIN'!
And I agree about no safety fence and a floor full of tiles. I assume the vets know what they're doing (as much as stoopid hoomins can), but it would make me nervous if I had to take my (hypothetical) bunny master/mistress there.
Still gonna have to give Daisy a "virtual" snorgle, though!
- brandi b said...
Fleetie, not a bad snorgle, ole bean, and very dignified, what what...
(Thomas Hardy has me in an Anglo state of mind...pardon my doopidity, but it's hard to switch from Texas Twang via Larry McMurtry to Anlgais per Thomas Hardy and back again!) - 3:23 PM
- d. moll, l.ac. said...
Watch out she will melt that table with her disapproval
- Kat said...
Such disdain is hard to handle in any rabbit, but Miss Daisy is a serious armful of bun! I think I'll go hide and wait for Tuesday.
- janet2buns said...
DDSH, DVM should provide at least a towel for Miss Daisy. Vet, errr...spa tables are notoriously slippery.
Miss Daisy would like to point out that doggehs often get treats at the vet. DDSH, DVM should provide carrotinis and nutriberries for their lagomorph clients. They deserve nothing less. After all, everyone knows that bunnies are Exotic! - 5:00 PM
- brandi b said...
Blech, no kidding. For what vets charge for "exotic" rabbits, bunnies AND their parents should get spa treatment during visits. I think that veterinary medicine is as much full of crap as human medicine. Rabbits will never get off the "exotic" list even though they are, what, 3rd most popular pet in the U.S. Why? MONEY!! It all comes down to money. Vets can play dumb and not have to bother with us crazy rabbit people who know more about rabbits than they do (ego buster, there) and the vets that do bother with rabbits can charge us REDONCULOUS amounts of money because they know that every time a beloved bunny poops in the wrong direction at the wrong time, we will take them to the clinic because we LOVE THEM SO DANG MUCH!!!
Also, I think vets mostly think of rabbits as "pocket pets" or livestock.
Doopid Schtinkee Hoomin Vets!!! - 7:40 PM
- anonymous said...
Fleetie, alot of Vet offices have tile walls, too. Really scary, because bunnies can just suddenly jump anywhere, especially while you take them from their boxes or carriers. But what a beautiful snorgle. I wish all the bunnies in the world could get a snorgle like that. You could travel around the world scattering snorgles everywhere you went. A new legend would be born - Fleetie Bunny Snorgler, like our Johnny Apple Seed.
- anonymous said...
BB, there are some great vets out there, but it is as you suggest a pretty much mixed bag. Once a vet tech took my bunny box from me, set it on a vet table in a totally tiled room, opened the top of the box, then said to me to come over and take her out so she won't be scared. At this point my little bunny had smashed into a tile wall. It was my fault. I'll never forgive myself for allowing such a stupid scenario to unfold. We went from routine check to thousands of dollars and incalculable bunny suffering. It didn't matter much that I suffered with her every step of the way. As I say, I'll never forgive myself. Now I know that Buddha Bun, alias Daisy, doesn't look like she's in much danger there, but when your bunnies are off the floor bad things can happen really quickly.
- brandi b said...
I think most vets are great - with dogs and cats. But how sad is it that we need a place like The HouseRabbit Society to help us find rabbit savvy vets in our own state? I am even afraid to take my chihuahua baby girl to the vet! She is so teensy. I am TERRIFIED to take my Meany Girl Bunny to the vet, she is unpredictable and it would make me physically sick if anything happened to her. I don't know how I would handle it. SHe is so tiny and spoiled. That is part of the reason I have not had her spayed yet. Doopid reasoning, I know...
- janet2buns said...
We are VERY lucky to have a top notch veterinary clinic available to us. The rabbit knowledge that a few of the vets AND the techs have is phenomenal. A friend of mine had a red hot bunny emergency in the middle of the night last night, and used their after hours service. The bunny is feeling better now. Having said that, I have been to vets who claim to know rabbits, and clearly do not. A good rabbit vet is worth her weight in gold.
- janet2buns said...
@brandi b: Extracting the bunny from the carrier is half the battle. Invest in a carrier that opens from the top, they are great.
- brandi b said...
THe vet that the rabbit rescue here uses is supposed to be fantastic, and the owner of the rescue is very very momma bear protective of those bunnies, so you know if she is satisfied, this vet has to be great.
My bunny vet is very good but he is SO expensive. It would cost me almost 400 dollars to get Mean Girl spayed, it cost about 300 to get Fatty neutered. But the vet the rescue uses only charges about 80ish dollars for sterilization. Goodness.
Daisy is MAGNIFICENT! I know I said it before, but she is FANTASTIC!!! That is a professional lagomorph right there! She looks like she owns the place. - 9:46 AM
- janet2buns said...
Holy cecatropes brandi b, that IS expensive! I think we should have a say in what the vets' grandchildren take in grad school, since we'll be paying for it with the high vet bills!
If I can make a suggestion, you really should get your girl spayed. It would likely help with aggression and it would prevent uterine cancer, a leading cause of death in female bunnies.
- SixBunnies said...
I have been so fortunate to get to know our vet here in Plano, Texas, Dr. Bethany Whetstone. I got to know her when I only had dogs. But, when I got bunnies, I found out she knows an awful lot about my furballs! She even remembers their names and how much each weighs. She gets onto Jamal when his dewlap isn't sparkly white and clean for her...he sometimes has carrot juice on his dewlap. He gets embarrassed. She comes out to the waiting room and checks each bunny while he or she sits on my tummy, or we go into a room, depending on how many I have there at once. The whole room is always very interested in seeing rabbits. They love to watch them get examined and how personable each is. It's a great teaching opportunity.
- janet2buns said...
@SixBunnies: Wonderful! Sounds like you've got a top notch vet. You are very lucky.

Seems Weston will rely on logind, thus systemd.
Phoronix: The State Of Wayland, Weston (September 2013)
Kristian Høgsberg has provided a status update on the Wayland project and its associated Weston reference compositor...
Seems Weston will rely on logind, thus systemd.
Does that really matter? Who's going to be using Weston, as opposed to Gnome, KDE, Enlightenment or any of the other DEs which are implementing Wayland support? Weston is just an example of how DEs could go about implementing Wayland support.
Though, having said that, I'm pretty sure that Arch pulls down Weston as a dependency of something else, I could be wrong but I think it's Mesa. This isn't really an issue with Arch because Arch uses Systemd anyhow. But if Mesa pulls down Weston, and Weston pulls down Systemd, I could see issues with distros that don't use Systemd, they may not be too happy about that.
I probably should check my facts before I hit 'Submit Reply', but I'm not going to. So feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
I didn't know it before that's why I commented on it. If you are not on a systemd distribution, this highly matters. Yet another option for non-systemd advocates is not there. From what I understood, Enlightenment is ok with systemd. If you really don't want systemd, seems warning signs are all around: unless you take effort to provide an alternative, your options are becoming less and less. Assuming you want to follow along with all the technology changes and use Wayland, etc.
Note that it was also mentioned at one time that a few DEs might use Weston as basis for their own implementation.
This in relation to the previous long discussions where various people say that there must be an option other than systemd, yet do nothing at all and also ignore the things that are going on. Every time there was a clear sign to take action I'll try and comment on it. Cannot say that the signs weren't there 2 years from now!
I wrote a blog about this, calling for actual work to be done. Basically the only response was angriness that other people aren't doing the work for them. Then various systemd using people saying: "meh".
OpenRC is building support for some systemd services, I imagine its use will increase once it becomes the only non-viral licensed init system to do this.
Furthermore Etoile, Razor-Qt, KDE, Xfce, MATE, LXDE, ROX-Desktop, basically pretty much every DE other than Gnome has not made an announcement stating that systemd would become a dependency. Furthermore, many distros like Slackware and Puppy Linux will not transition to systemd due to the actual nature of the distribution. What of these?
I'd also like to see where it was 'mentioned at one time that a few DEs might use Weston as basis for their own implementation.'
libwayland depends in no way or form on systemd. There is literally nothing stopping anyone from writing a compositor completely sans systemd/logind. Sorry, but in the FOSS world, demand does not generate supply; unless work has already been done by other volunteers, it's in the demanding parties hands to supply themselves.
GNOME also didn't make any announcement regarding systemd. We've been through this before. Including a distribution like Slackware. That says enough IMO, Slackware goal is something similar to being in control of every little bit. Obviously they won't go for systemd. It is way more interesting that you ignore so many distributions. Oh, they use systemd! :P Furthermore, Slackware doesn't care to package GNOME, so again awesome example right there.
Puppy Linux, never heard of it. From the website it says: "Small size, ~100MB!". Right, GNOME is way bigger than that. Yet another awesome example.
Etoile, never heard of it. Razor-qt, that is being written. XFCE, they actually do support/rely on systemd. MATE, the same. LXDE, no idea. ROX-desktop, wtf is that?
Anyway, your examples prove you wrong. If everything except some really specific stuff moves to systemd, then systemd it is.
Also, calling GPL and LGPL viral: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Jeez man, 1990s have passed! Move on!

Going on 8 or 9 hours now, nobody knows anything?
Does anyone know what is going on with Icculus.org tonight? Been down for a few hours now...
Going on 8 or 9 hours now, nobody knows anything?
Yeah, it was down around 18 hours or so. If it was a server move, then they should have given some warning, my guess it was a DDOS attack.
Either way, this seems to happen whenever we have a major release lately(Ryan assures me it's not related though). It's a free host, so I cannot complain really, but it's no longer acceptable for me, so I've moved all of our web related items to a paid host. Keeping our SVN, channel bots and other items there though. It's very upsetting when you get slashdotted and your game has a great chance at publicity, and your website is down for extended periods(which happened to us a year or so ago). Another problem was that not only was our website down, but also our default http server for custom map downloads, so players were dl'ing maps(slowly) over udp.

Quick, high-precision movement
The MM200's cloth surface delivers excellent glide characteristics that allow you to execute fast swipes and pull off high-precision shots with confidence and consistency.
Optimized for Gaming Sensors
Microscopic variances in the surface affect mouse tracking far more than its visible texture or color. The MM200 uses a carefully-screened surface material that delivers excellent tracking with any gaming mouse sensor.
Stable and Secure
You can't afford to have your mouse surface move in the middle of a firefight, so we added a 1.5mm no-slip base that provides cushion with just the right amount of give. And it's made of natural rubber, so it doesn't have a harsh chemical odor.
Glide-Optimized Textile Surface
Tuned for smooth, fast movement with excellent control
Designed for Gaming Mouse Sensors
Make consistent, precise shots with optical or laser gaming mice
Non-slip Natural Rubber Base
No bunching or sliding - even during intense gaming
