Fifty years ago, Foothill High was inviting students through its doors for the first time, and Ned Permenter didn't fancy himself a football coach.
My, how half a century will change things.
On Saturday afternoon, as Foothill celebrates its golden anniversary, the school will rename its Trojan Stadium for the man who coached the Trojans' football team for 37 of those first 50 years.
That would be Ned Permenter, who now spends most of his days doting on his three granddaughters and spending free time watching football and fishing at his home in the mountains north of Bakersfield.
"I'll tell you what: You never, ever think that something like this is going to happen," said Permenter, with typical humility. "It's just a dream."
Ned Permenter Stadium. It certainly fits, but what's in a name?
Well, 220 victories, third-most in Central Section history, and just 157 losses in those 37 years. Eight league championships in an era when every team in town was in the same league and Foothill, on the outskirts of town, always seemed like a perennial underdog. Landmark victories like the one that snapped Bakersfield High's 27-game winning streak in 1965 and a win over defending state champion Anaheim four years later.
But if you really want to know about Ned Permenter, you have to look beyond the numbers. Remember instead the boys he coached and the men they became.
"That's what I really feel good about, is the people who are just winners in life," Permenter said. "The most important thing is when they come back and say they had a good time in football. You forget the scores and wins and losses; the fact they say, 'Hey, it was fun.' That's what I enjoy the most."
Two of his players, Rashaan Shehee and Joey Porter, went on to have NFL careers — Porter as a four-time All-Pro — but to Permenter, they're but two of many to be proud of.
Permenter, 74, is fond of saying his doctor, Bill Baker, and dentist, John Alexander, are former players, as was his last boss at Foothill, principal Joe Thompson. The list also includes countless educators, former police chief Steve Brummer and Kern County supervisor Mike Maggard.
"Sometimes, when you get my age, the joy of the wins is replaced by seeing how well your players are doing in life," Permenter said. "That's what I think about the most. Everybody loves the guys who go onto college and pros, but I think about how blessed we were to have all these guys who were successful in life."
And if they played for Permenter, they loved Permenter.
"I'm one of hundreds who would tell you they would do anything for Ned Permenter," Maggard said.
Same for Jim Wooster, who was a senior and the Californian's Back of the Year in 1969 and is now an educator of special-needs students.
"He was a father figure to us all," Wooster said. "Not the father you were afraid of, but the father you didn't want to disappoint. I wasn't afraid of his yelling and screaming, though he did do that. But we all just cared about him so much. We had that respect for him. We didn't want to disappoint him."
The players also had fun. Maggard remembers drills where Permenter would ask to hear, "'You guys rip and snort and holler.' So we lean down and look between our legs and we all snorted and hollered and yelled — and then we fall to the ground just laughing so hard."
That's not to say Permenter wasn't strict with players at a school where problems didn't always stay on the field.
"He felt his duty was to keep those kids on the straight and narrow," said Bob Ezell, who assisted Permenter for all 37 years he coached varsity football. "He was firm, and they really appreciated him. They understood later why he did what he did. He did such a great job handling all of our athletes.
"He's just one of a kind."
He almost was a one-of-a-kind something else. When Permenter talks about his past, there's one word that keeps coming up: "serendipity." He speaks of two forks in the road and decisions he made — and those made for him — that could easily have made him something other than the face of Foothill's first 50 years.
The first came in 1962, when Permenter — who grew up in Wasco and attended Bakersfield College for a year — was coaching baseball at another alma mater, UC Santa Barbara. He starred in both sports at Wasco and in college, but he considered himself a better baseball player until knee injuries derailed his career — another serendipitous moment.
"It's a blessing I didn't make it, really," Permenter said. "I know many of my high school and college teammates who played three, four years in the minor leagues, and that's it."
Anyway, about that fork in the road. Permenter was on a recruiting trip for Santa Barbara when then-Foothill football coach and athletic director Harvel Pollard called and asked him to coach the Trojans' first baseball team.
"I almost never should have been to Foothill," Permenter said. "I turned Harvel down twice. I wanted to stay at Santa Barbara. But this was a rough recruiting trip, and he called me again that night.
"And I don't know why, but I said, 'OK, I'm coming.' But if I'd not said yes then, who knows what would have happened?"
So he came to the new school in southeast Bakersfield — which, really, at that time, wasn't in Bakersfield at all — and coached a baseball team that didn't yet have a home field.
After three years of that, Pollard asked, or perhaps told, Permenter to become the head football coach. Here's the second fork.
"I didn't want to coach football; I really didn't," said Permenter, who also taught physical education. "I knew in baseball, nobody said anything bad to you. But in football, they'll let you know about it. But Harvel said, 'No, we're appointing you,' and I went home that night and just had a lump in my stomach. I thought, 'Oh, no.' But I stayed around a long time.
"Really, when you think about it, this might never have come about. And I'm really blessed to see that."
But he did it, and it wasn't long before folks discovered he could coach football, too. In 1965, the Trojans downed a Bakersfield program so good that some say the Central Section quit awarding championships because BHS was winning them all. Foothill won that game 12-9 when Steve Johnson intercepted a Drillers pass in the end zone.
"At first, I didn't have any confidence in myself in football, and I was going into a league with some veterans," Permenter said. "Bakersfield was almost 5,000 students back then, and North and South and East all had veteran coaches. I was just a rookie. I knew I was in some deep water. But I was really blessed to have a great bunch of kids and a loyal assistant in Bob Ezell. After a while, it got to be a lot of fun."
Four years after the monumental BHS victory, a typical Permenter motivational ploy inspired the Trojans against state powerhouse Anaheim and its star linebacker, Mo Rodriguez.
"We were scared to death," Wooster said. "So we went to practice, and coach says to me, 'Hey Wooster.'
"I go, 'What?'
"He said, 'The coach from Anaheim called me up and said Mo Rodriguez had a message for you: After the game, you won't want no Mo.'
"Here I am, 17 years old, and I didn't know he was telling me a story. I was so dang mad. So we're ahead 8-7 at halftime, and I come off the field at Memorial Stadium, pounding my chest, just screaming, 'I want some Mo! Gimme some Mo!' And they looked at me like, 'What the hell is he talking about?' But Ned just had a way of getting to you."
Years passed, and the dynamics of high school football changed toward the end of Permenter's career. Schools popped up in west Bakersfield, district lines shifted, playoff divisions changed and Foothill, which Permenter led to section runner-up finishes in 1969 and 1976, became something of an afterthought.
And yet here was Permenter with his right-hand man Ezell, finding ways to change that.
After Friday night games, he would write newspaper stories on the varsity, junior varsity and freshman level games and publish a 20-page paper the following Monday, selling it for a dollar to raise money for the program.
"He woke up every day with a smile on his face; he couldn't wait to go to school," said Permenter's wife, Virginia. "Then he'd come back with a smile on his face. I'd say, 'What the heck is wrong with you? I don't like going to work that much.' But he never stopped loving it."
Through it all, he kept changing lives. In the mid-1990s, Porter and a few other Trojans made a few flashy uniform adjustments at halftime of a game they trailed 14-7 to Tulare Western — much to the chagrin of their old-school coach
Permenter told them they couldn't play in the second half, but when the players begged back in, he relented on one condition.
"I said, 'You guys can play until we have to punt for the first time in the second half,'" Permenter said. "Then I'm putting the other guys in."
Consider that message, like many of Permenter's, heard loud and clear: Foothill didn't punt again and won the game in a blowout.
"The Tulare Western coach came to me at halftime with a slip of paper," Permenter said. "He said, 'You have go to write down for me what you told your guys at halftime.'"
That legend, and so many others, belong to Ned Permenter, the name that will now be etched forever on the side of the stadium where he coached teams who won and men who won.
"Ned Permenter taught me how to win, and he taught me how by being prepared and persevering, if even just a little bit longer than your opponent," said Maggard, the county supervisor. "He taught me how to resist intimidation and how to lose graciously.
"The thousands of young people he touched is just a stellar record of character he's always exhibitied, the integrity he instilled in us. There couldn't be a more deserving man of this honor."

Beware of warped cover!1/3/2012
I had previously bought this elsewhere for my iPad 2, so when my husband recently got an iPad 1 I decided to buy him one. The prices ranged from $30-$50 at the retail stores, so I was pleased to find this one for $10.98, shipping included. I read the reviews about the warped cover, so I knew I may be in for a disappointment. Sure enough, the cover was warped and has worsened since we took it out of the box. Still, it serves the purpose of protecting his iPad so we are keeping it. For the price, I'm not going to gripe too much. If you want something that looks a little nicer, go ahead and pay more, but for my money this will work for us.

Problem with my Neos 1000

I ended up sending the head to Tennismachines and when it came back it worked better but I still had the same problem that with a bit of pressure I could still move the tension head towards and away from the racquet when the lockout lever was released. I noticed the lockout lever had been adjusted so that it came out less than an inch away from the catch when Prince calls for it to come out an inch and a quarter away from the catch. I made the adjustment to release an inch and the problem seems to have been resolved but I was curious about where the measurements should be made. I've been measuring from the end of the catch to the nearest part of the lockout lever. The manual isn't very clear about that.
Based on the image should I adjust the lever about a quarter inch further from the catch?
Thanks again for any help. I should probably just leave well enough alone but if we weren't obsessive over our equipment we probably wouldn't be posting here.

England forward Tom Croft will replace Alan Quinlan for the Lions' tour if Quinlan fails to overturn his 12-week ban.
Croft was a shock omission when coach Ian McGeechan named his side four weeks ago, but it seems highly likely that the England utility forward will travel to South Africa after all.
Quinlan was found guilty last week of eye gouging in Munster's European Cup semi-final with Leinster. He is set to contest the ban that at present rules him out of the Lions' tour and it is likely the hearing will be heard by next Wednesday.
Wales captain Ryan Jones was also mentioned as a possible replacement, but reports from the UK indicate Croft is the favourite.
Lions coach Ian McGeechan confirmed crocked centre Tom Shanklin won't be replaced as this would allow combinations more time to flourish.
'When we selected the extra player back in April we were really trying to cover all our bases regarding the European Cup final, where we could have been without 16 players,' said McGeechan.
'As it's transpired, for the first two tour games we can cover the squad and really we want to give the opportunity and the responsibility to the players who are there to try to fill that role.
'Going back to 36 just gives us the chance to give players and combinations a bit more game time which is so important with so little time before the first Test.'
The Lions' squad assembled on Monday and will fly out to South Africa this weekend. They play their first tour match against the Royal XV in Rustenburg on 30 May.

Full-time. That's it. United pull it out the bag thanks to Robin van Persie. He looked like being the villain but he ends the game as the hero. Heartbreak for Southampton - three straight defeats but such a brilliant effort from them.
Southampton attacking but surely not. Penalty appeals! Ferdinand with a push but Mike Dean isn't giving that one.
Nani finds Van Persie at the near post and he heads past Davis. Slack marking. Incredible forward play - and strength of character to bounce back from the penalty miss.
Goal! Van Persie hat-trick!
Corner for United. Nani will take it.
Hernandez shoots wide.
There will be four minutes added time.
Ward-Prowse with the cross to find Hooiveld but Vidic just does enough. Another corner comes out to Ward-Prowse but his shot is blocked. Then Fox tries a ludicrous effort from distance but he skies it. Had men in the box too.
Corner for Southampton now. They're back on the attack!
Rafael crosses from the right and finds Ferdinand unmarked in the area. The big defender heads against the post but Van Persie is there to put home the rebound with his left foot.
Goal! Van Persie equalises!
Wonderful take from Hernandez to latch onto a long ball. But when he cuts inside Clyne is on the cover and gets there first to concede a corner.
Rafael crosses from deep to find the head of Hernandez but he heads wide under pressure.
United dominating the game now as Southampton retreat. No significant chances since the penalty though.
Hooifeld does well to outpace Hernandez there. Surprising, really. The Mexican looked to be through on goal.
Carrick knocks the ball up to Van Persie but the forward is offside.
The corner comes to nothing and Southampton can break. Rafael commits the foul on Rodriguez. Time to regroup for the home side after that period of pressure.
Good skill from Nani outwits Clyne and he wins the corner after his cross is sliced over the bar by a Southampton defender.
Rodriguez on for Lallana.
Van Persie sees a shot blocked.
Valencia crosses from the right. Evra crosses from the left. Saints withdrawing onto the edge of their area now. Playing on the counter-attack.
Goalscorer Lambert is also going off to be replaced by Guly.
Debutant Mayuka on for the impressive Puncheon.
Carrick crosses this time but it is too strong and runs out of play.
Davis comes off the line to claim well from Scholes' lofted cross.
Hernandez on for Welbeck.
Scholes finds Van Persie who twists and turns down the right channel before firing wide with his right foot. He owes United one here.
What a dramatic game this has been. Saints back on the attack with Lallana but Vidic times the challenge well.
Van Persie went for the dinked penalty and Davis saves it. The keeper redeems himself as he gave the ball away in the build-up to the penalty.
And Van Persie misses the penalty!
Penalty! Hooifeld slides through the back of Van Persie. Awful decision by the defender.
Lambert is away now - he beats the offside trap - and has time. Tries to find Ward-Prowse at the far post but Ferdinand is back to rescue the situation.
This is an astonishing game. So open. Southampton not sitting on this lead, by any means.
Now a wonderful through-ball from Lambert finds Lallana but he is (wrongly) ruled offside.
Clever disguised pass from Lambert finds Lallana but Evra produced a great tackle.
Scholes then tries a longer ball to find Welbeck but Fonte cuts it out with his head.
Scholes' through-ball sends Van Persie away immediately. The Dutchman pulls the trigger but Davis saves.
Nani replaces Kagawa.
Scholes on for Cleverley.
Puncheon in the left channel now but he shoots wildly with men in the box.
Lallana with an effort from the edge of the box but it's easy for Lindegaard. United under serious pressure here.
Davis crosses for Lambert to attack Rafael again at the far post but the little Brazilian is brave this time and heads away well.
The United keeper claims the resulting corner.
Southampton looking for a third. Puncheon skins Evra by surprisingly turning onto his weaker right and drills the ball at the near post but Lindegaard saves.
Good header from Schneiderlin. Lambert crossed right-footed from the left and there was the midfielder. In some ways it was a mirror opposite to Saints' first goal. In others it was a repeat of the United equaliser - like Clyne, Evra slipped to allow Schneiderlin all the freedom he needed.
Goal! Morgan Schneiderlin with a header!
Kelvin Davis with a wretched pass and Valencia intercepts. He lays the ball across to Van Persie who has a good chance to score but slices it wide. Good chance for a top-class striker that.
Cleverley finds Van Persie who holds the ball up well. The ball comes to Evra but his cross is cleared.
Fox thinks he has won a corner but the referee awards a goal-kick to the disgust of the home support.
Vidic is all over Lambert again. Trying to win a header he can't. Foul given.
Puncheon cuts in from the right onto his favoured left foot and is looking to shoot but Carrick blocks bravely.
Then Kagawa and Van Persie link up nicely. Welbeck makes a good run to buy Kagawa space to shoot left-footed but it's just wide.
Vidic tries to find Rafael bursting forward but the pass is too strong for the attacking full-back.
Puncheon tries to feed Lambert but the striker is flagged for offside.
Lambert nearly pulls away from Rafael again in similar fashion to how he did for the goal but there is cover this time.
Southampton kick-off and we're underway in this second half.
The big question now is whether Southampton can keep this up. The interval should help as they were tiring and they'll surely be encouraged that their approach is working - but for a Clyne slip they'd be ahead. For United, all they can do is keep passing the ball and hope to find the opening. If it stays as open as it was for periods of that first half then there will be more chances - and you'd fancy the visitors to be more ruthless.
Gabriel says: "To be honest I'm surprised at how close this has been so far. I would have expected Man Utd to be a couple of goals up by now. You've got to hand it to Adkins for how he's motivated his Southampton side with all the talk of Redknapp replacing him over the week."
Half-time. Fantastic half of football at St Mary's. It finishes level.
Van Persie nearly latches on to a long ball but again he cannot bring the ball down under pressure.
There will be one minute added time.
Saints beginning to tire now and you sense they need the half-time whistle. They've worked so hard here.
United have numbers in the attack but Kagawa's ball to Van Persie is too difficult for the forward to bring down and the chance is gone.
Schneiderlin has a chance to put Lallana clear on goal but the pass is just behind him. He has to delay and that allows Carrick to intercept.
As they do so, a cross comes in from Valencia and - incredibly - Clyne slips again! Evra has a free header but Davis saves.
United desperate to take the sting out of this one with a period of possession.
Valencia nearly gets away down the right but the covering defender is alert and the chance is snuffed out.
Passing statistics show this as 50:50 and that speaks volumes for Southampton's efforts here, especially as United dominated the early minutes.
Schneiderlin nearly finds Fonte in the right channel. The centre-back was still up from the free-kick. It just runs through to Lindegaard.
Vidic with a foul on Lambert. The big forward used all his nous there to win that one.
Lindegaard with a poor kick, surrenders possession.
Lallana with an effort now, just wide of the right-hand post. More good football.
Carrick is robbed in a dangerous area and Saints are still pressing well. More than holding their own here.
Ward-Prowse with a quick one-two and gets his shot off just wide of the post.
Clever reverse pass from Puncheon in behind the United defence to find Lallana. The Saints man turns well but his right-footed cross is too strong for Lambert.
Van Persie with the dinked free-kick but that's wide. It was a good area too.
Valencia cuts the ball back for Welbeck and he is fouled by Fonte on the edge of the box.
Welbeck lays the ball sideways across the box towards Van Persie and he tries to curl one into the top corner but gets it wrong and that's over the bar.
Nice body sway from Welbeck but he is crowded out. This is a cracking game with chances at both ends.
Excellent football from Southampton again as they spread the ball wide to Lallana on the left. His cross is cleared but only as far as Lambert who fires a left-footed effort just wide of Lindegaard's left-hand post.
Clyne fell over as Valencia's cross came across the box and that allowed Van Persie time and space to pick his spot.
Goal! Robin van Persie with a neat left-footed finish!
United enjoy a long spell of possession in the Saints half but it ends with Evra lofting in a cross that Davis claims easily.
Shot from Kagawa from distance and Davis has to turn it behind for a corner. It comes to nothing.
Hooiveld with a long ball towards Lambert and they are nearly in behind United but Vidic head back to his keeper under pressure.
Fantastic football from Southampton now - even some showboating from Ward-Prowse!
United trying to regain a measure of control but Saints are continuing to press them. The hosts are backing off Carrick but then pressing the next pass hard and United struggling to find a way through.
Puncheon with a left-footed cross from the right finds Lambert who has pulled onto Rafael at the far post. The header is superb and Lindegaard has no chance.
Goal! Rickie Lambert with a powerful header at the far post!
Schneiderlin with a left-footed effort from distance but it's well over the bar.
The corner is a clever one. Saints put all their targets on the line and that allows Lallana to pull away to shoot from 12 yards out when the cross comes in low. He doesn't quite connect and skews his effort wide.
Clyne's cross is deflected and Carrick cannot prevent the corner.
Now it's United defending and trying to break. Welbeck has the chance to do so but Puncheon fouls.
Good pressure from the home side. They're really growing into it.
Puncheon crosses for Lambert at the far post but the forward can only head tamely at Lindegaard. The ball was a little high for him.
Now Ferdinand is troubled by Lambert and forced into a desperate clearance.
Southampton have settled a little now and Lindegaard has to dash off his line after Ward-Prowse turns Vidic impressively.
Lofted pass from Carrick into the left channel. Van Persie chests the ball and tries to volley first time but it drifts wide of the far post.
Strong header from Vidic. The home side struggling to get the ball up to Lambert in the early stages.
Delightful flick from Van Persie nearly finds Kagawa in the box but the Japan international slips.
Lallana has the chance to run at Rafael but the full-back is up to the challenge and wins a throw-in.
The delivery is poor and hits the first man. First spell of possession for Saints now.
Van Persie's corner is cleared but United soon win a free-kick on the right so the Dutchman will whip it in again...
Good interchange between Valencia and Kagawa brings a corner for United on the right.
Carrick's happy to be in midfield - he's charging up the pitch as United attack early on.
United kick-off at St Mary's.
The players are out and we'll be underway shortly. Vidic and Ferdinand paired together. How Ferguson must wish he could have done that more often in recent seasons.
Thanks for all your feedback. Sorry i couldn't post them all up. The players are in the tunnel and we're nearly ready to go.
Joshua: "Easy win for United today 3-1 with Van Persie scoring twice."
Chris: "I reckon there will be a United rout today! 5-0 with Kagawa getting a brace."
Ben: "I'm going for a 0-2 United away win, RVP getting both of the goals."
Ahmed: "Man Utd team looks good, I especially like the look of Kagawa but I will go for a surprise win for Southampton - a Lambert brace." That would be interesting.
Iacovos: "Why does Fergie keep playing Welbeck on the left? Last time he was effective was Sunderland's win at Stamford Bridge a while back now..."
Jamie Redknapp says it's not going to do De Gea's confidence much good. Thoughts?
Geoff Shreeves interviewing Sir Alex Ferguson on Sky Sports now. The United boss mentioned that error against Fulham by De Gea and claims it could have cost the Red Devils the game. He didn't get to 1000 games without being ruthless.
Lots of you wondering what De Gea has done wrong. There was the mix-up with Vidic against Fulham. Squad rotation and all that?
Richard says he 'can't believe it's not Buttner at left-back'. He cracked a funny.
Ben: "Glad to see that Ferdinand has made a surprise return to the defence. No real surprise with the rest of the team, Carrick will slip back into midfield and Danny Welbeck has a chance to make a name for himself with Rooney's spell on the sides. Also a shock to see Lindegaard get the nod ahead of De Gea after his impressive shot stopping in the opening games.. 3-1 away win for the Reds!"
Lots predicting 3-0 United with Van Persie and Kagawa in the goals. Any Saints fans feeling confident? Spirited effort against City on the opening weekend but back down to earth last weekend at home to Wigan. Tough start for Nigel Adkins.
Morgan: "Can't see anything other than a United win, with RVP adding to his tally. Hope we can score a few to celebrate Fergie's 1000th league game in charge."
Tyler: "I'm a United fan but I think we will just scrape the win 2-1. Van Persie and Kagawa for United and Rickie Lambert for Southampton."
Lewis says: "Looking forward to the game today, very shocked about Sir Alex's choice of goalkeeper this afternoon, but who can question him after so much success over the years, looking forward to seeing RVP in a United shirt once again and also Kagawa who looks a very good player, I think United will come out on top today with a 0-3 victory!"
Our friends at Sky Bet have Manchester United at 1/2 for the win with Southampton out at 11/2. The draw is available at 100/30.
Saints make two changes to the team that lost at home to Wigan. James Ward-Prowse is back in the starting line-up alongside Jason Puncheon. Jay Rodriguez and Guly do Prado are the men to miss out.
Interesting team selection from Sir Alex Ferguson. Anders Lindegaard is in for David de Gea, while Rio Ferdinand is fit despite suggestions to the contrary from the United boss.
Any thought on those selections or predictions for the game? Let me know by email at email@example.com or on Twitter at @GhostGoal.
Southampton: K.Davis; Clyne, Fonte, Hooiveld, Fox; Ward-Prowse, Schneiderlin, S.Davis, Puncheon, Lallana; Lambert.
Man Utd: Lindegaard; Rafael, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra; Valencia, Carrick, Cleverley, Kagawa; Welbeck, Van Persie.
The teams are in and will be up shortly.
Welcome to our live commentary from the Premier League as Southampton host Manchester United at St Mary's.

It's official: Hornets become New Orleans Pelicans next season
Jan 24, 2013, 4:29 PM EDT
The New Orleans Pelicans.
It's official.
As of next season — 2013-14 — the Hornets logo, born in Charlotte where that name was a good fit, will be gone. In its place will be a new logo, a new brand and new colors — red white and gold.
Before Tom Benson even bought the New Orleans franchise from the league more than a year ago he told David Stern it had to be rebranded to something local, something that fit New Orleans.
The Pelican is local, it is the Louisiana State bird and is plentiful along the city's shoreline. And as Benson said on video at the press conference announcing the change, the bird's resilience (it was once on the Endangered Species list and thousands died a couple years ago as a result of the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill) matches the city's.
"It's a symbol of the state, it's a symbol of our resolve, to come back too," Benson said. "Gee, we've done it. That's what's great."
The name change has taken a pretty good beating online — it's not the most intimidating of sports teams names and that it's almost a joke. It didn't play well outside the Gulf Coast. The franchise admitted they have some education to do on that front. That said, I kind of like it because it's local, because it something that's a part of the state's heritage. In a league with the Jazz in Utah, Grizzlies in Memphis and Lakers in the former desert of Los Angles, this name at least fits the area.
The colors… I liked the teal better, personally. It fit New Orleans and that Mardi Gras image. The blue is in the state flag and the other colors had significance as well, we were told. Okay. The look is clean and sharp. It's not bad.
As for the Hornets name, could it go back to Charlotte? There a lot of fans there that hate the Bobcats name and want it changed. The Charlotte franchise issued a formal statement.
"We are aware of the impending change regarding the team nickname in New Orleans. We are currently in contact with the NBA and conducting our own due diligence relative to this matter. We will not have any further comment until we have completed this process."
The NBA could have a few new name changes in the coming years — Pelicans, Hornets in Charlotte again and Sonics back in Seattle.

Decent logo, not great.. But that name is terrible.. Now if we could get the bobcats to change to the Hornets we might be on to something
- december77 - Jan 24, 2013 at 4:36 PM
LOL Pelicans? Is that the best they could do? Sounds so intimidating. What are they gonna do? Swallow me whole?
- scottheis82 - Jan 24, 2013 at 6:47 PM
LOL… kinda like your girl did with my load!!!

- cosanostra71 - Jan 24, 2013 at 7:41 PM
Speaking of intimidating names, my favorite baseball team, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, must take the cake. The name isn't supposed to be intimidating, their oncourt play is.
- dal24la - Jan 25, 2013 at 2:42 AM
Doesn't sound any stupider than "Clippers" (how many people even know what a Clipper is?) or the Lakers (just sounds stupid and Los Angeles isn't exactly full of Lakes like Minneapolis was)
And at least it fits. What the heck do wizards have to do with Washington?
- cullenand99 - Jan 26, 2013 at 2:15 PM
Since when does a professional sports teams' name have to be intimidating? Guess the Lakers, Knickerbockers, Nets, Saints, Patriots, Angels, Yankees, Penguins, Packers, Jets, Dolphins, Browns, Cardinals, Nuggets, Jazz, Clippers, Suns, Wizards, and Magic all didn't get the memo. The only requirement for a sports teams' name should be that it something to do with that area, the Hornets had nothing to do with New Orleans, Louisiana, or the Gulf Coast Region, the Pelicans do. Aside from the fact that the Pelican is Louisiana's state bird, there are many other reasons as to why Tom Benson chose to rename the Hornets the Pelicans. All of which can be found here if you would like to found out.
- bowens3181 - Jan 24, 2013 at 4:42 PM
I always though the New Orleans Tide would have been a great name. Way more intimidating than a pelican, and it plays on and honors their experience with the hurricane without being too insensitive and flat out calling them the Hurricanes.
- eddit13 - Jan 24, 2013 at 4:50 PM
Easy to joke on the Pelican name if you don't know Louisiana and New Orleans. Besides it's no worse than the Wizards and the Magic. Those names strike fear in their opponents, right?
- fanfatrick - Jan 24, 2013 at 5:42 PM
Or the "Lakers"… scary
- december77 - Mar 10, 2013 at 9:53 PM
Wizards and Magic don't strike fear, but it's way cooler than a lame ass bird.
- dalucks - Jan 24, 2013 at 4:55 PM
Will a new logo and uniforms help a team with limited talent?
- kylexitron - Jan 24, 2013 at 5:00 PM
Takes a lot of effort to make the "Phillies" sound intimidating by comparison. Good job, NO. May as well have just gone for flamingos.
- snaxdsp - Jan 24, 2013 at 5:00 PM
Being from Louisiana, it has grown on me and the logo is pretty cool
- cosanostra71 - Jan 24, 2013 at 5:05 PM
I actually really like it. The logo is kind of meh, but I like the colors.
- redbearwoodall - Jan 24, 2013 at 5:13 PM
Not a Hornets/Pelicans fan, but I like it. Who says a mascot has to be intimidating. It's local, it looks good, and it's a nice change. I like it.
- magoopaintrock - Jan 24, 2013 at 5:22 PM
Intimidating doesn't matter. In fact, a less intimidating name is cooler. "Grizzlies" sounds like a 3-year-old thought of it. If they can assemble a 60-win team it'll be the coolest in the NBA.
- december77 - Mar 10, 2013 at 9:54 PM
So in other words it will NEVER be the coolest in the NBA.
- virusgvr - Jan 24, 2013 at 5:34 PM
I wonder if they are going to be sponsored by Chico's Bail Bonds.
- gmsalpha - Jan 24, 2013 at 5:35 PM
I love the logo.
And everyone made fun of "iPad" when that name was announced. Nobody thinks twice about it now.
And nobody laughs at how dumb the name "Superman" is. But if someone came up with "Awesomeman" or "Coolman", they'd be ridiculed.
It'll grow on us. Everything seems to, especially sports names.
- acdc363 - Jan 24, 2013 at 5:55 PM
That logo is actually really cool I can't believe they made a pelican look badass!
- tbd3 - Jan 24, 2013 at 5:57 PM
Say it ain't so with those colors! Give me some ABA-style pastels!
- 00maltliquor - Jan 24, 2013 at 5:59 PM
I like the colors. The logo….some guy put up a link from another articles comments that had a bunch of Pelican logos and about 6-7 of them were suuuuper dope! This one doesn't look half as cool as the ones from the link.
- idontevenwannaknow - Jan 24, 2013 at 6:05 PM
What is all the talk about the name not being "intimidating"? As many have probably said before, but I will go there again, how many names are actually "intimidating"? Let's just go through some other names that are supposedly "intimidating" and see if it makes a bit of difference, well, unless all you want to do is make a case against this name without paying any attention to any other names just for the sake of complaining. Here we go, Nets, Knicks, Pistons, Nuggets, Jazz, Clippers, Lakers, etc., just the thought of a net attacking a nugget gives me chills. What makes a team with a non-intimidating name intimidating? Uh, let's see, their play would be my guess.
The colors/logo looks good, there is a basketball in the logo, what else could the NBA want?
If people can get used to team names that do not end with an s, Jazz, Thunder, and Heat, then I think that we will get used to Pelicans.
- december77 - Mar 10, 2013 at 9:57 PM
I guess you're right…their play will actually match the team name…boring and uninspiring.
- rickyspanish - Jan 24, 2013 at 6:07 PM
Well said, this name change is for New Orleans, no one else. The feedback from New Orleans fans has been good, so Benson did the right thing for his city.
- deiong - Jan 24, 2013 at 6:32 PM
why not the "my little pony's" its about on that level…
- zacmonte - Jan 24, 2013 at 6:39 PM
At first I hated the idea of the Pelicans name when the idea first came up, but over time I have actually come to like it.
As far as the logo, it's actually a really nice in my opinion. Very clean and it doesn't look stupid or childish, but instead rather professional. The Pelican isn't intimidating, but it is much better than names like the Magic, Thunder, Grizzlies, Bobcats, etc that sound really childish, cheezy, and unprofessional. It has a nice feel to it and has a local presence to it which is also awesome.
Living in North Carolina my whole life before moving to Phoenix this past year, I must say that we need to get the Hornets back in Charlotte. The Bobcats sounds really childish, unprofessional, and I have never once understood the relation to it and the Charlotte/Carolina era, where as the backstory behind the Hornets name is awesome.
- scottheis82 - Jan 24, 2013 at 6:42 PM
philidephia already has the "my little ponies"…Duh
- eagles512 - Jan 24, 2013 at 6:50 PM
Horrible-looks like the hawks. Stick with the teal.
- dhkr - Jan 24, 2013 at 6:57 PM
I recently moved to New Orleans and I have to root for the what now? Pelicans? Grr.. we're the Pelicans.. Oh C'MON!
- bjerkrulez - Jan 24, 2013 at 7:03 PM
It fits the city…btw, how the heck is a gorilla similar to a sun in phoenix lmao >.<
charlotte should be able to go back to being the hornets (it sounds good)
- dannymac17 - Jan 24, 2013 at 7:12 PM
I actually like the colors and the logo.
That is about as fierce as you are gonna make a damn pelican look anyway.
- ninthwardfriend - Jan 24, 2013 at 7:24 PM
So the New Orleans Saints sound scary? C'mon people stuff like names worked in Pop Warner. California Angels? Just win baby.

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) - A 10-year-old boy is being sworn in as Albuquerque's newest police officer.
In partnership with Make-A-Wish New Mexico, the department Friday will grant Andrew Martines's dream of becoming a SWAT officer.
Martines will receive his uniform, ID badge and be sworn in by Chief Gorden Eden. Then he will be briefed on the fictional "Sunday Morning Bandit" that has been terrorizing Albuquerque.
On Sunday morning, Martines will get a call that the department needs his help, and he will be picked up for a helicopter ride and motorcade -- complete with a doughnut stop -- before he captures the bandit with the help of a police dog.
After saving the city, Martines will be awarded the title of police chief and honored by Eden.
Those who want to participate in granting this wish are asked to come to Taylor Park at Indian School and Pennsylvania at 9 a.m. on July 20.
Make-A-Wish New Mexico grants wishes for children with life threatening medical conditions.

8 Neat Ways to Utilize Virtual Events
Assembling your audience quickly.
Last year, 3DXplorer CEO Darious Lahoutifard visited the University of Washington, Seattle, to address a class of students studying 3-D space. Lahoutifard surprised the students by inviting them to log into a custom-made virtual classroom, which he had constructed on the spot. Once the students congregated virtually—their avatars perched on virtual chairs—class resumed in the virtual world. Lahoutifard then lectured virtually on the future of virtual worlds and the application for virtual events. How meta.

I am so blessed to have a job that is so much fun! Even though I am paid next to nothing, lol. Good thing I have a sort-of sugar daddy boyfriend (wow! TMI, no?).

The warm weather has had me craving a bit of vetiver and there is one I've been waiting for the warm weather to give another full wear to.
Profumum Acquae Nobilis
In the late 70's I attended a benefit for the New York City Ballet where Mikhail Baryshnikov danced three different pas de deux. Besides Baryshnikov the other dancers are lost to the fog of my memory. The one thing that isn't lost to me was the way Baryshnikov was able to subtly alter his power or style so as to enhance each of the different dancers he was dancing with. There is a special quality when a single constant can bring out the best in what is performing with it.
The 2009 release from Profumum, Acquae Nobilis, brought this to mind because this fragrance does much the same with vetiver playing the part of Baryshnikov, and geranium, absinth, and musk the olfactory dance partners. One of the things I admire about Profumum as a house is they keep their compositions simple but by choosing the right dance partners they enhance and expand the central note. Acquae Nobilis does just this for vetiver.
The first partner for the vetiver is geranium. Geranium usually has what I describe as a green rose aspect to it. In Acquae Nobilis the green quality is accentuated, to start, and in turn that takes the greener quality of vetiver and brings that to the foreground. As this develops the rose quality comes out a bit more and that adds contrast to the opening stages. The second partner to stroll on stage is an absinth accord. The best absinth accords combine the rough alcoholic feel of the "green fairy" with the anise flavor and a dollop of sweet, in Acquae Nobilis this is one of those absinth accords. The alcoholic aspect is like a palate cleanser getting your attention that things are changing on your skin and then the anise arises out of that with a rich quality that the bit of sweetness amplifies. This makes the vetiver resemble the edgy herbal vetiver that exists in many fragrances. The choice to pair it with a strong absinth accord allows for that herbal nature to come forward. There is a moment where it almost reminds me a bit of a Ricola cough drop, which I like. The last partner is the most sultry as a full musk comes out and turns Acquae Nobilis smoky. The smokiness of the musk brings out the dried grass facet of vetiver and warms Acquae Nobilis as it brings it to a close.
Acquae Nobilis has excellent longevity and modest sillage.
I really appreciate the distinct phases Acquae Nobilis goes through, each one has its own character and style and made me felt I was clearly experiencing a well composed fragrance. At the end I am as impressed that vetiver is able to command my nose as effectively as Baryshnikov commanded my respect.
Have a Florid Friday everyone.

Hello everybody!
I'm in a 5-Star favorite from the early 80s, K de Krizia - another mossy and complex floral chypre-y fragrance that I think is absolutely perfect....in the vintage form, at least (is anyone familiar with the current version?) It was created in 1981 by Maurice Roucel.
Top notes - Aldehydes, Peach, Neroli, Bergamot, Hyacinth
Middle notes - Narcissus, Rose, Tuberose, Iris, Orange Blossom
Base notes - Oakmoss, Vetiver, Civet, Styrax, Vanilla
Happy Friday everyone - y'all have a great day!
Eau Sauvage
First of all, thank you very much for the birthday wishes on Tuesday. This is the first time I've had chance to drop by. (It's OK, I've been out having fun!) They are very much appreciated. Mwa to all of you!
I have gone from the sublime to the ridiculous this week. The day before my birthday, Big took me and Small to Zurich for the day and I got to spend a happy hour alone in Oswald's Parfumerie on Bahnhofstrasse. i don't know the german word for Bliss, but this place is IT! I had chance to smell all the Nez a Nez, Byredo, Parfums delRae, Parfum d'Empire and anything else my greedy little nose desired. Heavenly! I came out with the inevitable 4 sprayings on my arms and fell utterly in love with one: Guerlain's Bois d'Armenie from the Arts et Materieres collection. Typical - it had to be the really expensive stuff! But my willpower was strong and anyway, my wallet is weak.
On my birthday I wore Cuir d'Ottoman and it was fabulous. I reckon this is now firmly on my 'get a bottle one day' list. Obviously I'll be scanning our own marketplace first, since I know my fellow 'noters are scrupulous fellows. But I'll admit to having logged a search with Evil Bay.
Today, however, I am in Lolita Lempicka. And not quite liking it. Hmm. No idea why, maybe I just got my expectations wrong, but it's not my best ever pick of the day. Hey, it's not dreadful though, so I'm not complaining.
And Eva Pasco has made my stomach rumble! Those Zeppole look gorgeous. I had to Wiki them - here's what the 'pedia said:
"Commonly light, deep-fried dough balls about 2 inches (5.1 cm) in diameter, these doughnuts or fritters are usually topped with powdered sugar and may be filled with custard, jelly, cannoli-style pastry cream or a butter-and-honey mixture."
Bring your ear close to your screen. Can you hear me drooling? Mmm-hmm. That's not your hard drive, that's me.
Have a grand day all of you, and I hope you get to settle down with a cup of tea and a zeppole (or similar), especially you and your dear Mom, 30Roses. Big love.

I was tempted to jump on the RHM bandwagon and go with an ET scent, but decided to wear Pure Turquoise again instead. Pretty flowery and green, nice for work.

Well, we never did get to the fruits and veggies-- but we bought some fantastic deck chairs and a table for Mom's balcony, and we finally got her cable hooked up.
While we were at the apartment, with a maintenance man working on the cable hookup problem, she had a visit from one of the 3 chaplains and his wife (who also live there). We hobnobbed and compared notes (they spent 40 years as missionaries in Japan; I spent over 8 years as a medical missionary in rural Africa before I met my husband.) They're going to keep an eye on Mom in April when hubby, daughter and I go back to FL to retrieve Mom's things.
I can hardly believe how much more positive Mom is about living there. No more resigned "what choice do I have?" comments. Now she's trying to talk her best friend into moving to CT and joining her -- honestly, they should put Mom on the marketing team because she was selling it! She has observed that the residents are very friendly, and this has made a huge difference.
Would that not be fantastic, 30 Roses, if your mom were able to convince her best friend to move to CT? I hope she succeeds!
Still can't smell anything, but I am enjoying being able to virtually sniff everyone's wonderful fragrances today.
Chaya, congrats on getting such a scrumptious gift of scent. I have always been curious about Ayala's scents and now your post has made me curiouser and curiouser. Enjoy!
Take care, all.
It's great about your Mom feeling better about the move, 30 Roses!

Ms.M, you ARE an angel.
Ms.W, the word you are looking for is "Gluckseligkeit" (Die, like everything else ending with "-keit") with two dots over "u". I also am of an opinion that in your part of the world one can't go wrong with the traditional "bonheur" (Fr.).

8-ft high floods in Cavite caused by rains, high tide
More News from Kristine Angeli Sabillo
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippine – A combination of torrential rains and high tide on Monday morning resulted in flashfloods in several municipalities of Cavite, said Governor Jonvic Remulla in an interview with Radyo Inquirer 990AM.
"The peak of the flooding was about 8-feet [high] at around 9:30 in the morning," Remulla said before narrating how heavy rainfall since Sunday night caused water from the upland areas of Tagaytay and Mendez, combined with the periodic high tide from lowland municipalities, resulted in fast rising flood waters.
Remulla, however, assured the public that the floods have started to recede with the lowering of the tides.
Inquirer Southern Luzon earlier reported that several towns in Cavite and Laguna were submerged in water. For a time, half of Bacoor City in Cavite was reportedly flooded with only Aguinaldo Highway and Molino Boulevard open to traffic.
Bacoor City's disaster risk reduction and management council chief Richard
Quion said all major rivers in Cavite – Zapote River, Bacoor River, and Imus River – were swollen and overflowing.
Because of widespread flooding, especially in the coastal municipalities of Kawit, Rosario and Noveleta, Cavite and Laguna were placed under a state of calamity.
Earlier, Remulla said one person was killed after the Tres Cruces dam in Tanza, Cavite gave way. Another victim was reported missing.
Remulla also announced that classes in Cavite, from preschool to college, will remain suspended until Tuesday.

Do you play "other" matches on league days?

For example, on Sunday I am playing from 7am-9am in casual doubles that is fairly competitive and fast paced. Then, I have to travel two hours to play in a USTA doubles match at 1pm. After that, I have to travel two hours back to the club and play in regular "club men's league" doubles from 5:30-7. I am in good shape and it doesn't bother me to play that much, but I am sure I am at a disadvantage for the last sets of the day. If the USTA match was the last of the day, I would probably rethink my schedule.
With me, my game stays fairly consistent but my serve tends to wane when I get tired mainly because of lack of concentration from too much playing and repetition.
I always try to play as much as possible, though I wouldn't bother adding four hours of driving to play a third match if I already had two matches scheduled nearby but you're just a bit crazy I guess.

This Windows 8 tablet joins a handful of other new business-friendly tablets and accessories.
The PSB Imagine X1T is a sweet-sounding speaker and very easy to listen to, but it lacks the gravitas of other similarly sized and priced towers.
The Motorola Moto X hits all the right notes, delivering stock Android inside a powerful high-end handset that you can customize yourself.
The 5.7-inch Liquid X1 boasts some serious processing power with its eight-core 1.7GHz CPU and Cat 4 LTE capabilities.
Pricing not available
The Fujifilm X-T1 is a great camera for advanced photographers as long as its quirks don't bother you.
Don't call this a phone -- despite its phone-like shape and voice-calling capabilities, the Panasonic insists that it's a slate.
Pricing not available
The Dell Venue 8 is perfect for the budget shopper with modest needs.
Sony's thin, powerful Tap 11 tablet shows up the competition in terms of design. It's not ideal for everyone, but only a few tweaks away from being the runaway leader in this smallish category.
For its entry-level ILC, Fujifilm swaps out the X-Trans sensor and gives the camera a less snazzy finish.
While it may not be the best overall camera available for less than $1,000, the Fujifilm X-M1 does deliver the best photo quality in its price class.

The team scores and finishes weren't exactly anything to write home about, but there were some bright spots for the three Madison County track and field teams that competed in the eight-team Mid-State League Ohio Division Championship meet that concluded on Friday, May 16.
The girls meet saw London place fifth (71 points), Madison-Plains seventh (28) and West Jefferson eighth (26.5), while the boys teams finishes were sixth (West Jefferson, 56), seventh (London, 34.5) and eighth (Madison-Plains, 18).
Grandview easily won the girls meet with 162.5 points and Columbus Academy triumphed on the boys side with 149.5.
London's All-Ohio distance standout Sarra Taylor competed in the grueling distance combo and did quite well, placing second in the 1,600-meter (5:18.31) and turned around to win the 3,200 by nearly 30 seconds (11:17.92).
Taylor also was on the school's 4x800 relay which placed third (10:46.54). Other members of the foursome were McLaren Rogerson, Maddie and Mikayla Martinez.
The Red Raiders' Kali Boyd won the high jump (5-02) and placed third in the pole vault (7-00), Mikayla Martinez was second in pole vault (8-00). Teammate Jenn Darling was third in the shot put.
Other strong performances turned in by Madison County girls included West Jeff's Megan Jester who was fourth in the long jump (14-063.5) and fifth in the 100 hurdles (18.03) as well as by Claire Sterling who finished third in the high jump (4-10).
Madison-Plains' Rachel Garrison was fourth in the discus (91-06), Addison Davison was fourth in the 100 (13.56) and sixth in the 100 hurdles (18.08).
Destiny Bennett was fifth in the long jump (14-03.5) and sixth in the shot put (28-06). Blair Bryant was seventh in the high jump (4-06) for the Golden Eagles.
On the boys side, Plains' Connor Cooley led the way for the Golden Eagles by winning the discus (142-02) and finishing fifth in the shot put (42-03).
The only other county championship on the boys side was secured by London's Dage Spinning who cleared 10-06 in winning the pole vault. Red Raiders teammate Kyle Riegel was second in the same event with his 10-00.
The two pole vaulting standouts teamed with Nathan Newman and Keith Wright to finish fourth in the 4x400-meter relay (3:50.23).
West Jefferson's Tre Cahill had himself a solid MSL Ohio meet by placing in three events. He was fifth in the 100 (11.79), fourth in the 200 (24.00) and seventh in the 400 (55.36).
He was also on the fourth-place finishing 400 relay (46.81) along with Ilya Peshko, Tyler Jones and Mitch Denes.
Denes was third in the long jump with a 19-05.25, while Austin Bare was third in 400 (53.16) and second in high jump (6-00). Peshko was third in high jump (5-10) and Andrew Lewis placed fourth in discus (122-04).
MOAC Red Division
The Jonathan Alder girls finished third (86.5 points) and the boys were sixth (22) in the Pioneers first go-around as members of the Mid-Ohio Athletic Conference.
The Lady Pioneers got a league championship performance from Aziza Ayoub who won the 100-meter dash (13.69) and the 400 (1:01.24).
Ayoub was also on the championship winning 1,600 relay team (4:21.2) and second-place finishing 800 relay teams (1:53.63) along with Melissa Noel, Jaime North and Jordi Dye.

Between Riverside and Crazy Bares Its Wounds
By Tom Sellar
A musical about Irish women getting shipped off to Australian penal colonies? With a wedding and a happy ending? Behold Transport, a seafaring drama with music and lyrics by Larry Kirwan that seeks to uplift downtrodden souls with tales of hope.
The subject is ostensibly serious: In the 1830s and '40s, British colonialists forcibly removed 4,000 female "undesirables" from Ireland. Some were expelled for stealing food to survive; others were chosen on the basis of moral suspicions or mental illness. In passage they endured intolerable conditions in the lower passenger holds; many died. Upon arriving in southern Australia, the survivors were sent to penal colonies to correct gender imbalances and bear children to other prisoners. Back home, famine and emigration began depleting Ireland's populace.
You could imagine a rigorous play responding to the weight of this pain-infused history. But Transport chooses a trite form at odds with this gravity. Every character on this supposedly wretched vessel turns and pours out their vexed heart to us in I-will-go-on ballads. True, Thomas Keneally's script gives brief hints of darkness: a storm, a quick rebellion, a death — not to mention a Cassandra-like character (Terry Donnelly) who keeps making the same prophesy of the blights soon to befall Ireland.
132 W. 22nd St.
New York, NY 10011
Category: Theaters
Region: Chelsea
Overall, however, this one-dimensional crew and their passengers are so well-intentioned and morally upstanding that Transport feels more like a Sunday school pageant than theater for thinking adults. Two of the three-man crew fall ruefully into innocent love with lovely prisoners, winning affections and redeeming futures; bland romantic ballads are sung, and the deportation ship starts to look more and more like the Love Boat. Only the stern, judgmental Captain Winton (Mark Coffin) remains an obstinate baddie, though we can spot his inevitable conversion to goodness from far off, the way a watchman scans the horizon for landfall.
Unfortunately, the overweening awkwardness radiating from the stage is not simply a new musical's birth pangs. The clunky dialogue and relentlessly sentimental songs prove too much for the cast to surmount in the Irish Rep's tight quarters. (Tony Walton directs.) The convicts wish they were bound for America rather than undeveloped Australia; if only Transport, too, had set sail for fresher shores.

Katy Perry is currently recovering from a mean bout of food poisoning. Perry was scheduled to perform in Chicago and St. Paul tonight and tomorrow night as a part of her "California Dreams" concert, but the illness has forced her to reschedule the dates.
A representative for Katy Perry said that the pop star was suffering from "severe dehydration" due to the food poisoning, according to Exposay. Perry posted a tweet to apologize this morning; it appears below.
Chicago and St. Paul - I'm so sorry to have to postpone today and tomorrow's shows. But I'll be back 8/21 (CHI) and 8/23 (St. Paul)!

From the Publisher"This is a brilliant and extensive effort at explaining the science behind many common correct and incorrect horsemanship and training techniques. The first half on the science of behavior and learning theory will not be for all readers, but for those who persist, it builds the foundation for the second half where misbehaviors are dealt with from a scientific standpoint. This is an excellent addition to the scientific behavioral literature." (Doddy's, 20 April 2012)
'...the book is a must for every equine veterinary practice, equine training and teaching institution, and anyone concerned with horses who wants to be involved with their own individual training and development. It is a thought provoking textbook that will help the next generation of horse owners and equine enthusiasts to consider and reconsider their training and development protocols and will provide many others with the knowledge that what they are doing is right – and, more importantly, why it is right. Ultimately this book can only have a positive effect on the welfare of the horse and on the human– equine bond.' (The Vet Journal, December 2011)
