The ballroom of a posh hotel in the Central suburbs was packed to capacity. Some of the officials even wore their respective team jerseys. The ambience was similar to the Indian Premier League auctions but without the cricketing superstars. Abhishek Bachchan, owner of Jaipur Pink Panthers, was the sole Bollywood star. Yet, the first ever auction of the forthcoming Pro Kabaddi League did not fall short of excitement, confusions, hush and gossips.
The eight franchises meant business and used their purse intelligently, lapping up champion players from both India and abroad.
With internationally-renowned auctioneer Bob Hayton with the gavel, Bengaluru Bulls scored first winning the bid for a star raider. They pocketed Ajay Thakur, Asian Indoor Games gold medallist, 2013, for Rs12.20 lakh. Later, Delhi roped in Surjeet Narwal, Asian Beach Games gold medallist, 2010, for the same amount but it was the Patna franchise that ate the hot cake of the auction. They paid Rs12.80 lakh – the highest bid of the day – for Rakesh Kumar, World Cup gold medallist, 2007.
Patna head coach Ramveer Singh Khokar said: "Rakesh alone is enough for the team. He has remained captain of India and is also an Arjuna awardee. Though a raider, he can play at any position. We have got some of the best players. Some of them are from Rakesh's village in Haryana."
After the quota of category 'A' players got over, team owners carefully spent for category 'B' players. Telugu Titans (Visakhapatnam) surprised the house, bidding for Deepak Niwas, a youngster from Jharkhand, for Rs12.60 lakh – the second-highest of the day.
There are four Pakistan players – Atif Waheed, Wajid Ali, Waseem Sajjad and Nasir Ali – in the tournament. Asked if having the players from across the border can invite trouble, Janardan Singh Gehlot, president of International and Asian Kabaddi Federation, said: "Veteran Shiv Sena and BJP leaders have grown up playing the sport. I am sure they will help us in this initiative. I remember Shiv Sena also arranging a kabaddi tournaments in the past at Shivaji Park (Dadar) when Bal Thackeray was alive."
While Atif and Wajid were bought by Telugu Titans for Rs4 lakh each, Waseem (Rs 5.20lakh) and Nasir (Rs4 lakh) were picked up by Patna and Jaipur Pink Panthers, respectively.
All the venues will be decked up for the league. So, do we see cheerleaders like IPL? "The cheerleaders in IPL are clad differently. It is kabaddi, it is the sport of our land. I think there should be a deeper cultural connect," said Charu Sharma, managing director of Mashal Sports, one of the brains behind the league.
Since doping is common in this kind of a sport, Sharma added: "We have a huge anti-doping programme in order. All the franchises have been told that it is not only the players who will get into trouble but also the coaches and officials."
Since kabaddi has not been covered extensively like other sports, the players are not household names but Sharma is confident that once it hits the television in the prime time, it will find its course and the approach of the audience will change.
Every franchise has a research team comprising former players and coaches who are aware of the players. Since the budget is limited, there is some amount of secrecy within them too to avoid multiple teams going for the same set of players.
There was also a confusion towards the end of the day. While selecting the 12th 'State Wild Card' player, Puneri Paltan, the Pune franchise, asked for Deepak Zazot, who is from Mumbai.
It was clarified by Sharma that since Maharashtra have two teams, the Pune team should avoid going for a Mumbai player. When Pune preferred Mayur Shivtarkar from the Maharashtra list, it was declared that he is also from Mumbai and he was mistakenly put in the wrong list. Deoraj Chaturvedi from the Kabaddi Federation promised to provide more options to Pune by Wednesday and sort things out.
However, a player selected in a team stays under a contract of two years.
"I request the owners not to change players. It will add stability to the league. A player can only be replaced if he is injured and the new player should be bought for the same amount," said Sharma.
Top five bids (Rs lakh)
1. Rakesh Kumar (Patna) – 12.80
2. Deepak Niwas (Telugu Titans) – 12.60
3. Ajay Thakur (Bengaluru Bulls) – 12.20
4. Surjeet Narwal (Delhi) – 12.20
5. Surjeet Singh (Bengal Warriors) – 12.00

More eye candy and visual feedback during combat.
World is much more open ended and has more opponents!
Better combat balance and now only 24 card decks allowed - there is more strategy involved and bit less reliance on luck.
(80 stars)
I absolutely love this game! I lose track of my day completely when I start playing. Well done.
(80 stars)
Will re rate maybe higher after I've played it more

The way to get through this game is to bookmark every single room and restart if you miss a single roll... time waster
(80 stars)
Very addictive story game though a sequal or 3 would be awesome

Fun game but no replay value :(

22.09.04 - By Nat Kerr - firstname.lastname@example.com - Bernard Hopkins proved Saturday night that flash, good looks and mass appeal, at least in the squared circle, isnt always the blueprint for success. He may have a shaved head, and, up until the De La Hoya fight, he entered the ring with an executioners hood, but he is The Executioner because he does just that he executes his game plan to a tee.
Hopkins successfully defended his belt for the 19-th consecutive time against his antithesis Oscar De La Hoya, knocking him out in the 9th round.
The fight was standard Hopkins. Just the way he has been scripting it for 11 years.
Hopkins looked almost ordinary for the first 4 rounds, seemingly letting De La Hoya be the aggressor. There werent many meaningful exchanges. De La Hoya attempted some combinations, using his superior speed. Very few of them landed. None served to faze Hopkins.
In between rounds, Hopkins looked calm and collected, as though he knew it was just a matter of time before he could find holes in De La Hoyas armour.
From 5th round the fight was all Hopkins. Bernard was picking his spots; landing his jab and power punches whenever he so deemed necessary. He didnt overtly dominate De La Hoya. He gradually broke him down, waiting to land the big blows late in the fight.
In the 7th round, Hopkins jab began to land with regularity; the big right hand often following. It was Hopkins now taking the fight squarely to De La Hoya.
In the 8th and 9th rounds, it became apparent that the fight had become the mismatch many had expected, as the bigger man - Hopkins, was landing at a higher pace. De La Hoya looked lost as to how to respond to Hopkins firepower.
The ending was anti-climactic, Hopkins landing a vicious left hook to the liver of De La Hoya. Oscars reaction to the punch was reminiscent of a fighter on the wrong end of a low blow. It was a devastating punch leaving De La Hoya crippled on the canvas for the first time in his illustrious career. De La Hoya had lost before, but never had he looked so ordinary.
There will be those suggesting that Hopkins defeated a smaller man, a blown up welterweight. The facts are that Hopkins out boxed De La Hoya. The fight was a chess game, with Hopkins clearly proving to be the more intelligent and calculating tactician.
De La Hoya never looked to be winning the war. He won 3 out of the first four rounds, but that was more because Hopkins appeared passive, as though he was examining the fight from afar.
Once he saw that De La Hoya couldnt land combinations with regularity, and that the assumed speed advantage was marginal at best, Hopkins dictated the fight. It became a repeat of the Bernard Hopkins show, which is going strong into its 12-th season.
The fight never measured up to the Hagler-Leonard comparison. It never had the chance to become the spectacle of the big clash 17 years ago. Hopkins is no Hagler. Hopkins is a fantastic boxer, nothing more and nothing less. Hagler was a brawler. Hopkins is what the purists envision as a pugilist. Hagler never was. Neither deserved the pre-fight association.
Bernards ability to adapt, his chin, stamina and gamut of weapons make it a certainty that he could step into the ring with the very best the middleweight division has ever had to offer and hold his own. Thats not to say that he would be the favourite, but there are no more than three middleweights of any generation that would be favoured over a prime Bernard.
Hopkins has for 11 years been the consummate pro, remaining true to what got him to the very top of the pound-for-pound ratings. Its this consistency that garners him a special place in middleweight history.
Its also true that Bernards definitive legacy wont be known until he hangs them up.
Theres a good chance there will be some re-evaluating of the opponents Bernard fought and defeated. Many appeared mediocre, which may be a direct result of just how special Bernard Hopkins is. Time will tell.
Not too many fighters can boast defeating two of the top 6-7 fighters of the their generation. Bernard Hopkins, with one-sided wins over Tito Trinidad and Oscar De La Hoya, can.
No longer should anyone feel guilty when mentioning the name Hopkins alongside Monzon, Robinson and Hagler. Hopkins asserted Saturday that he is one of the greatest middleweights boxing has ever seen.

Turin, Italy
My Rating
Our trip was shared between Italian speakers and English speakers, It was difficult to hear our guide through the ear piece as the Italian guide was using the coach's load speaker system. When the English tour at the tunnels finished we had to sit on the bus for ages as the Italian tour (supposedly identical to ours) was more detailed and took longer. Never the less the tunnels were interesting.
Siem Reap, Cambodia
My Rating
A really good tour with a guide that spoke good English and had a good knowledge of the area, would love to return and see the lake in the wet season.
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
My Rating
The tours was really good, Harry the guide was knowledgeable and also had a good sense of humour. Lunch was excellent. It was good to get a different perspective on the wars.
Hanoi, Vietnam

Pick up from hotel was good, the driver and guide did an excellent job, and the boat and its crew were attentive and the lunch was good, in fact to much to eat. A really enjoyable day.
Venice, Italy
My Rating
Guide had good knowledge about past and present day Venice. Tour need to be a little longer, so as not to become a rush at the end.

Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo has defended the tactics of his team in Sunday's German Grand Prix at Hockenheim.
Fernando Alonso claimed victory ahead of teammate Felipe Massa but the Italian marquee was later fined 100,000 dollars by race stewards who ruled that Massa had deliberately slowed down to allow the two-time world champion pass for victory.
The incident has also been referred to the World Motor Sport Council, leading to the possibility of Ferrari receiving a greater penalty.
Di Montezemolo accused Ferrari's critics of hypocrisy, saying team orders have been an integral part of Formula One throughout the history of the sport.
"These things have happened since the days of (1930s Ferrari driver Tazio) Nuvolari. I experienced it myself when I was sporting director, in the days of Niki Lauda, and not just then," said the Ferrari boss.
"Therefore enough of this hypocrisy, even if I can well believe some people might well have liked to see our two drivers eliminate one another. But that is definitely not the case for me, or indeed for our fans." Di Montezemolo told the Ferrari website that the "polemics" were of no interest to him.
"I simply reaffirm what I have always maintained, which is that our drivers are very well aware, and it is something they have to stick to, that if one races for Ferrari, then the interests of the team come before those of the individual," he said.
There have been mixed reactions to the incident with defending world champion Jenson Button of McLaren calling team orders "wrong, even if they are sometimes unavoidable".
Seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher, however, stood behind his former team. Not surprising, considering in 2001 then team principal Jean Todt (current FIA president) told Rubens Barrichello to "let Michael pass for the Championship".
"This isn't a Sunday drive, this is about the world championship and is about winning points," said Mercedes driver Schumacher.
Sebastian Vettel of Red Bull, who finished third behind the two Ferraris at Hockenheim, described the manoeuvre as disappointing for the fans.


text: Comments (4) + Add comment Comments (4) Featured ShaunCameron + 910d ago I like how the author just admitted that video games been "casual" from the start. The way I see this "casual phenomenon" is more along the lines of video games returning to its pick-up-and-play roots and a time when a person didn't have to be some antisocial loner (read: hardcore gamer) to appreciate video games nor did a person have to be some rocket scientist to understand a game and its mechanics. #1 Agree(1) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply Monstar + 910d ago fuck you on about, returning to the roots? Games in the beginning were challenging as fuck, complex and required some effort to either understand or get use too. Games now are becoming the opposite due to the obsession of video games rivalling MOVIES. It's about the cinematic scope and over blown realistic visuals and action..not to mention the insane budgets. Point is, developers are wanting to match what is shown on the big screen due to gaming popularity, it is why cinematic moments are plagued with QTE because the shit can't be down in such a fashion with full manual control. It needs to look cool. That being said over time, the natural progression is making things more assessable...EASIER so to speak, that way there is a joy and satisfaction of playing. Issue is, developers haven taken the risks of going beyond that or don't think it worth it, rather copy it over and over again...until another winning formula comes a long.

Pakistan Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan has called Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi's statement regarding attacking Islamabad to bring back bring fugitive underworld don Dawood Ibrahim as 'irresponsible and shameful'.
Modi had said if he wins the elections he would bring Ibrahim to India to be tried for the 1993 blasts in Mumbai.
According to Dawn News, he told a Gujarati news channel on Saturday that the previous administrations had not tried hard enough.
Modi also criticised Indian Home Minister Sushil Kumar, saying political statements were not necessary for bringing back the Indian don.
Modi also questioned if US President Barack Obama held a press conference regarding US Navy Seals' operation in Abbottabad for targeting al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden?
Responding to Modi's criticism, India's former home minister Chidambaram had said the government cannot send commandos to bring back Ibrahim.
Nisar in a statement said that Modi should first decide where Ibrahim was living and then should dream of attacking Pakistan.
He added that Modi seemed had not learnt a lesson from his 'shameful' actions as the chief minister of Gujrat, which earned him a bad name.
Khan said the statement from an expected Indian prime minister and leader of a major political party was provocative and condemnable showing enmity towards Pakistan.
Modi had crossed all limits in his enmity towards Pakistan and Muslims, and his election as Indian prime minister would destabilise the region, he added.
Khan said the efforts of the Pakistani government for peace in the region should not be construed as its weakness.

I believe a heavy ball is one that has speed and spin.
You can hit a fast ball with little spin and it's easy to get back and control. If you're faced with a ball with spin and pace when it hits your racket it's much more difficult to control due to the spin, hence it feels heavy.
I remember an interview with Tim Henman after he played Pete Sampras - he said that many guys would serve faster than Pete but none of them served as heavy. Now, Tim wasn't the best returner of the game for sure but I think he was describing the fact that Pete put a lot more rpms on the ball than anyone else.
You can hit with too much spin and the ball will just sit up, the key is to get the right combination so that you can still hit fast and through the court.
I would say practice generating racket head speed, hit through the ball with enough low to high for spin. Hitting out in front too is a must.

Baking Soda Boosts Oil Production In Algae
By Evelyn Boswell, MSU News Service
Montana State University researchers have discovered that baking soda can dramatically increase algae's production of the key oil precursors for biodiesel.
The same ingredient that causes cookies to rise in the oven, the same agent that calms upset stomachs and removes odors from refrigerators is the elusive chemical trigger that scientists have sought since the early 1990s, said Rob Gardner, an MSU graduate student in chemical and biological engineering and a native of Afton, Wyo.
When added at a particular time in the growing cycle, baking soda more than doubled the amount of oil produced in half the time in three different types of algae.
"It took a lot of work. I was pretty thrilled when it all came together," Gardner said. "I'm still kind of in shock about it."
Gardner is part of the team that developed the algal biofuel technology that MSU is now offering for licensing. Other members are longtime algae experts — Keith Cooksey, research professor emeritus in microbiology, and Brent Peyton, professor in chemical and biological engineering and associate director of MSU's Thermal Biology Institute. Representing the College of Engineering and College of Letters and Science, all three belong to MSU's Algal Biofuels Group, "one of the best cooperative research groups on campus," according to Cooksey.
The Algal Biofuels Group is part of MSU's Energy Research Institute, an umbrella for roughly 35 faculty working in a variety of disciplines. About $15 million in sponsored energy research is conducted at MSU annually.
"We are looking at everything from biofuels, to fuel cells, to wind, to carbon sequestration," said Lee Spangler, Energy Research Institute director. "This work by the algal group is an exciting example of how we take university research and make it available to the private sector through licensing."
The algal group also belong to the Algal Biomass Organization, the world's largest group devoted to algal biofuel. Peyton presented MSU's discovery to that group in late September. It was one of four presentations on biofuel from MSU.
The search for a chemical trigger to boost oil production in algae was a long, sometimes torturous, journey, according to the three MSU scientists. Not only did they have to find a chemical that would work, but they had to figure out the best time to add it to the algae. Cooksey taught Gardner how to grow the algae they used in their experiments. Gardner grew the algae in beakers and tubes in three labs across campus. He then conducted experiments and shared his progress with Cooksey and Peyton. Gardner worked for about 1 1/2 years before the trio confirmed that baking soda was the chemical trigger they'd been seeking. They made their initial discovery in two kinds of brown algae and one type of green.
"It was a lot of trial and error and failure," Gardner said. "We finally came across the right combination."
Cooksey said baking soda may work because it gives algae extra carbon dioxide necessary for its metabolism at a key point in its life cycle. If the baking soda is added too early or too late, the algae don't respond. But when added at just the right time in the growth cycle, algae produce two to three times the oil in half the time of conventional growth models. The oil, or lipid, is composed of triacylglycerides, the key precursors to biodiesel and biojet fuel.
"For industry, if you double your output in half the time, that's a big deal," Cooksey said.
Reducing the amount of time needed to produce oil is also good because algal-producing ponds are prone to contamination, he added. If growers can produce oil faster, they can reduce the opportunity for contamination to ruin the product.
Peyton said the three types of algae used in the MSU study were not closely related, so the MSU discovery should have broad application.
"We are working on demonstrating this in other varieties," he said.
Peyton and Cooksey said the baking soda discovery demonstrated the value of interdisciplinary work on campus.
"The ties between the chemical and biological engineering and microbiology departments have never been stronger," Peyton said. "We work so closely with so many of the microbiologists that it's a very good collaboration, very fruitful."
He added that algal biofuel is the "fastest moving area I have ever been involved with. It's hard to keep up with all the new developments."
Cooksey, 75, researched algal biofuel 20 years ago and published more than 40 papers in the general area, but said the government eventually lost interest and withdrew its funding. The trend has reversed itself, however, and the field is exploding. Cooksey doesn't think the interest will disappear this time because some of the biggest energy users in the world — members of the defense and commercial airline industries — have thrown their support behind pursuing the idea.
Cooksey is now in demand for his expertise, but he is still miffed about the lost years.
"It's great, but it's frustrating," Cooksey said. "Why the hell didn't we do this 20 years ago because we would be where we'd like to be by now."
Companies interested in licensing this technology should contact Nick Zelver with the MSU Technology Transfer Office at (406) 994-7706 or e-mail at email@example.com.

Hopefully the Reds will be as fun to watch this year as the Mountaineers have.
Let's hear it from all the Reds/Mountaineers on a great game.
Hopefully the Reds will be as fun to watch this year as the Mountaineers have.
I was really worried tonight after watching them against Washington, maybe they went into the game knowing that Washington couldnt keep up? But they played a lot stronger with the ball than vs Washington vs a team that is arguably one of the best at transitions and causing havoc.
I really hope Baylor kicks the bloody tar out of Duke. Im so tired about hearing about Duke and the #1 seed crap. Baylor is a good team that should be able to make Duke do what Kentucky did tonight shoot a ton of 3s.
Go Mountaineers! Just glad to make the Final Four, anything else is icing!
Now if we could only bring back the winning in football.
I'm going to Indy next weekend!!!
Go WVU!!!! Bring it home for the Big East.

Yep, knocking off UK made this one over the top special.
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

WVU kept me from pitching a shutout in terms of my Final Four picks. It's been a crazy tournament, but congrats to the Mountaineers!
Awesome game by WVU. I'd love to see them win it all.
My dad is a WVU alum (and a Marshall alum). I'm a graduate of Marshall and Xavier. While I personally can't stand WVU, it is hard to cheer against a team who will make your own father happy if they win it all; especially since my horse in the race bowed out against KSU. So I'll wish you luck. Don't know if I can stomach actually cheering for you, but I'm glad that so many people in the state get to enjoy the ride.
Edit: I just saw that Duke won. I'll CERTAINLY cheer for the "Eers in that game!

With 400 vendors and almost 800 booths, I almost didn't have enough time to check out everything at the 9th Annual V-Twin Expo.
Motorcycle enthusiasts and industry people came from all four corners of the United States and beyond, converging on Cincinnati, Ohio, for the biggest bazaar in the V-Twin trade. Approximately 800 booths crowded the floor of the Duke Energy Convention Center the 9th annual V-Twin Expo, an enthusiastic turnout but well short of last year's event that spilled over into additional exhibition halls upstairs. But there was still plenty of business to be had, discussions and debates to engage in, and camaraderie to be shared as the need for unity in our industry was palpable.
Motorcycle USA got things rolling before the doors were even open at the Metzeler Executive Roundtable Breakfast. A 10-person panel, including Bert Baker of
Baker Drivetrain
, Eddie Trotta of
Thunder Cycle Design
and Michael Scaletta of
S&S Cycle
talked about how business is shifting away from high-end, one-off customs as more people are looking to do their own upgrades. Revenue and financing for big ticket items is hard to come by, so more motorcyclists are looking at their own bikes and are brainstorming what they can do to add a new twist themselves. It's back to the basics as riders are going to be using more bolt-on and slip-on stuff. There's still business to be had, as J&P Cycles President John Parham stated that the quantity of orders for J&P is about the same, but the amount spent per order is smaller.
Bert Baker and Paul Teutul Sr. share a laugh at the OCC booth. OCC was on hand to debut its latest production motorcycle, the 2009 OCC 10th Anniversary Bike.
"Taking care of your customers is more important now than ever," said custom builder Todd Silicato of
Todd's Cycles
Trotta said that he is making business off of other custom builder's bikes whose owners are coming in for service and repair. Many of those are the byproduct of the recent glut of overambitious enthusiasts who opened their own shop at the height of the chopper TV craze.
Attracting a younger generation to the V-Twin scene was also one of the hot topics. One of the panelists, Motorcycle USA's very own VP, Ken Hutchison, spoke about the need to take advantage of social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter and emphasized the
The Limpnickie Lot is gaining popularity and is helping attract a younger crowd to the V-Twin scene.
importance of maintaining an active web presence. Movements like the
Limpnickie Lot
are also paving the way, using mediums like skateboarding, BMX riding and music that speak s a language the next generation understands.
As the session ended, we got a chance to talk to panel member and
Dirico Motorcycles'
President, Stephen Talarico. The fledgling motorcycle company out of New Hampshire brought along its newest bike, the 2009 Speedster, a retro roller with deep fenders and a classic front end that looks straight out of the '30s. Bolted in its Kraft-Tech Frame is an air-cooled H-D Twin Cam 110B engine. The piece de resistance might be its rear fender, hand-signed by Dirico's frontman and founder, Steven Tyler of Aerosmith fame. Find out more about Dirico Motorcycles in an upcoming First Look article.
Dirico Motorcycles introduced its vintage-styled cruiser, the 2009 Speedster, at the Expo.
We also ran into Bert of Baker Drivetrains talking to Paul Teutul Senior.
Orange County Choppers
was on hand to introduce its 2009 OCC 10th Anniversary Bike. The low-riding rigid chopper has a blacked-out frame, tank, fenders, and oil tank. Its Rolling Thunder frame is similar to the one used on the factory-production bobber, The Greenie, and is powered by an EPA Natural Finish S&S 96 engine. Fork gaiters, 40 spoke chrome wheels front and back and floor boards give it more attitude and less shine than standard OCC fare, an appeal to the younger demographic we were discussing, I'm sure. It also has the lowest sticker price of any OCC production bike at $24,495, a price that puts them on par with its competition.
We got a close-up look at Big Dog's 2009 Bulldog, the companies first factory-custom bagger, at the '09 Expo.
Our next stop was at the
Big Dog Motorcycles
booth to get our first look at the 2009 Big Dog Bulldog. The Bulldog is the f irst factory-custom bagger that the Wichita-based manufacturer has built. The motorcycle is impressive, built in typical BDM grand-fashion, a combo of nine feet of stretched steel with long, swooping lines like the
award-winning Wolf.
The saddlebags are big and spacious and integrate cleanly into the design. They also serve as a canvas for more of Big Dog's killer paint and graphics. A stylish narrow, fork-mounted fairing sits high on the bars and should give riders a place to duck the wind. An Alpine audio system, iPod port, and satellite radio come standard. An S&S engine, BDM's proprietary Balance-Drive system and a 250mm rear tire are the same combo that the 2009 Coyote sports, a bike whose handling impressed us during the 2009 Big Dog intro, so we anticipate the Bulldog will handle well for a big bagger. We look forward to the prospect of putting it to the long-term test in the future.
Sucker Punch Sallys'
booth was also bustling every time we went by.
Tattoo artist and motorcycle enthusiast Ami James hooked up with Sucker Punch Sallys' Christian Clayton to create the LOVE/HATE motorcycles.
Maybe handing out free samples of Sucker Punch's energy drink had something to do with it, but they also had multiple motorcycles making their debut. Hutch and SPS's Jose Avilas talked for twenty about the new SPS Sportster. The old school racer look and drop-down bars in a Sporty frame had the track-minded Hutch drooling. And while hanging out at the SPS booth, Ami James and Christian Clayton stopped by to talk about the two custom motorcycles they collaborated on called 'Love' and 'Hate.' 'Love' features a Springer front end, a board track-style tank, and sweet 23-inch hoops front and back. 'Hate' has wide, beach-cruiser style bars and a vintage-looking leaf spring fork up front to go along with a big, round gold oil bag and split tanks painted by artist Sara Ray. Ami James, best known as the tattoo artist from the TV show Miami Ink, started Love Hate Choppers with custom builder Marlowe B. last year but is looking to take his motorcycle designing career in a new direction with SPS.
Artist Sara Ray did this awesome paint on the dual tanks of SPS' HATE motorcycle.
Roehr Motorcycles
was also on hand with its supercharged American-made superbike, the Roehr 1250sc. We got a chance to talk to the brains behind the bike, Walter Roehrich, as he filled us in on the motorcycle's hopped-up Harley-Davidson Revolution engine and its claimed 180hp. Components like Ohlins suspension, Brembo brakes, and Marchesini wheels round out an overall impressive attempt by the gang from Gurnee, Illinois.
One of the last people we ran into was
Exile Cycles'
Russell Mitchell. Russell has been busy working on a complete line of parts for Harley Softails. He said his six-
For every niche, there's a product. This Go-Go Caddy would be a hit for the biker who likes to head out to the links to smash some golf balls.
speed open belt primary drive for H-D's Twin Cam and his controls have been selling well, sales which support the current move toward do-it yourself stuff. Seems like Mitchell had good foresight with his Softail conversion.
In between checking out motorcycle debuts, we perused seemingly never-ending rows of exhausts, wheels, gadgets and gizmos tailored for the V-Twin crowd. From serious stuff, like Storz Performance H-D XR1200 upgrade, to the gotta-give-him-credit -for-trying category, like Go-Go Caddy's detachable golf club rack for cruiser motorcycles. He should convert it to an MX bike. It'd add a whole new dimension to the game. We even saw Charles Barkley there trying to say Monkey Butt and talk about chafing without busting out laughing. Turns out it was a promotional gig, we believe for a maker of a powder that is said to help out after a long ride in the saddle. Nonetheless, it was funny to walk up and hear Sir Charles talking about Monkey Butt. All part of the experience that was the 2009 V-Twin Expo. Can't wait for next year.

ClassicGuy -how come this show is about all motorcycles? Most think theres only One?
April 9, 2009 07:57 PM
Amazing how some folks will seat and talk with ya,even shake yer hand,til they see ya get yer ass on a metric,then their brain goes into reverse. Thoughts of someone mite have seen them shake yer hand! Oh my God! I've rode HD's for many years,lots of miles put on a 91 FLHS,heck logged for a fact over 150,000 miles in 7 years. Heard all the slang thrown at Metric riders,none of it should have been said. I now am 63 and ride a Kaw Vulcan classic,a stroked out 4 stroker. I got no complaints,others do,I hear them mouthing their words,talking their stuff. But the question is,how many actually ride more then around the block to the first sippin hole? Those that throw words at me,have yet to ride the miles I have,on my old HD, heck I've done caught up to them on my metric and passed them(# of miles rode),as they seem to get thirstier as they get older. To bad I hear Diary Queen still does not sell Beer! Plus they don't mind what you ride.
Dan -Metric crap?
February 21, 2009 12:36 PM
Milwalkee Mike I agree, V-twins do rock! Unfortunatly I had to sell my Heritage to pay the bills and I have had to ride metric's the other 35 years I have ridden, including the last 8, and although I would love another V-twin At least I'm still in the wind! metrics arn't crap. There are tons of support/love/enthusasim for them too. Just check the magazine rack. Not waving to riders of metric's? Bad mouthing metric's and their riders? Nani nani boo boo? Give me a break. We are all brothers out there on the twisties getting the same high from riding as the next guy. Hell Yea I want another V-Twin! I'm just not a 4 banger kind of guy. I may not be able to afford another Harley and may have to settle for a metric crusier, but hey, I will still be in the wind then too. Be carful what you say, your sounding like a lot of the other stuck up idiots that ride Harleys.
milwaukee mike -V-twin show
February 17, 2009 01:45 PM
HARLEYS are soooo kool! V-twins Rock man. You just don't see this kind of support/love/enthusiasim for metric crap. Just shows how "American Made" is Best, Metric garbage is the rest.
bryan harley -Thanks for the input, CJ
February 15, 2009 08:31 PM
Hey CJ, Sorry I missed it. I was at the Metzeler discussion in the morning and then had an interview with Stephen Talarico right after that so I couldn't make it. Thanks for shedding light on this important subject. Looked for you at the Limpnickie Lot but I didn't see you there. Hope to catch up with you in Daytona.
Cj Hanlon -Marketing to the Next Generation
February 15, 2009 04:48 AM
You guys overlooked one of the most dynamic panel discussions, which was dealing with "Marketing to the next Generations", which was on Saturday morning, As a panelist, along with Ken Conte (Rise Above Consulting), Keith Ball (Bikernet), Michael Lichter (Famous Photographer), Lon Nordbye (Legendary Buffalo Chip), Trish Horstman (Baker Drivetrain), Chris Callen (Cycle Source Magazine), this one event caused quite a stir with the attendees as it addressed head on this "next generation" and their preferences, and lifestyles (ie income, use of technology, music, mechanical interest, etc). With over 100 people jammed into a room, the information was informative and discussions lively. For those wanting to review the presenters notes and slides they can contact us directly. We were repeatedly interviewed throughout the weekend about this panel and have been asked to make this available at other venues. Guilty Customs, 407.453.0844 email@example.com

Charleston Teen Seeks Lesser Prison Sentence
A Charleston teenager is seeking a lesser prison sentence. 17-year old Thomas Mallo is just a few weeks away from his 18th birthday and has to start serving a 40-year prison sentence then. Mallo was convicted of killing an elderly neighbor and has been held at the Industrial Home for Youth in Salem since he pleaded guilty in 2010 to second-degree murder. Mallo was 14 when 80-year-old Phyllis Jean Phares died in 2009. Prosecutors say he stabbed her to death. Kanawha County Chief Public Defender George Castelle plans to ask a judge to reduce the sentence. Kanawha County attorneys are expected to oppose the move.
Charleston Shooting Investigation Continues
Charleston police continue to investigate the death of 39-year old Clinton Green, also known as "Blue." Green's body was found early Wednesday in the middle of the road with multiple gunshot wounds. Detectives say they have strong leads in the case, and think Green may have known the suspect. There's no reason for the neighborhood to believe it was a random crime. Green's body was found at 924 Main Street in Charleston around 2am Wednesday, after green walked home from a nearby bar. Court records show past drug convictions and prison time for Green, along with assault, domestic battery, and burglaries. Police have declined to give a motive in the shooting.
Supreme Court Reverses Putnam Co. Judge's decision
A West Virginia man freed last year after serving 15 years in prison for the rape of a 5-year-old girl has had his sentenced reversed. A decision by Putnam County circuit judge O.C. Spaulding set Joseph Lavigne Jr. free, but the state Supreme Court reversed the decision and sent Lavigne back to prison to finish his sentence. Lavigne was sentenced to up to 50 years in prison.
Decision on Slack Recycling Center could come soon
A new lease would turn Charleston's Slack Street recycling center over to West Virginia Recycling Services. There was no decision this week, but the final details could be worked out at a December 4th meeting of the Kanawha Solid Waste Authority. As the deal stands now, the authority would take $5.50 from every ton of recycling that makes its way through the center. The building that houses the Slack Street recycling center is more than one hundred years old, and was closed last March when combustible dust was found, among other structural issues. From a public drop off site, the recyclables are currently hauled off to Raleigh and Jackson counties for processing.
Gas prices drop slightly
Gasoline prices have dropped a bit more in West Virginia over the past week. AAA East Central says the average price for a gallon of regular, unleaded gasoline in the state is $3.53. That's less than a half-cent lower than a week ago and 12 cents higher than a year ago. Prices range from $3.75 in Martinsburg to $3.31 in Parkersburg. In Charleston, prices are averaging in the $3.50's, right around the state average. Nationally, gas prices average $3.41 this week.
Suit filed asking to void Marple's firing
Another new development in the firing or state superintendent Jorea Marple. A public interest group filed a lawsuit Wednesday with the State Supreme Court essentially asking for the firing to be voided. The suit alleges that the state Board of Education and its president, Wade Linger, violated open meetings laws by firing Marple November 15, by neglecting to list any discussion of her termination on the Nov. 15 agenda. The West Virginia Open Governmental Proceedings Act requires state agencies to provide proper notice and purpose of public meetings, the action states.
Deer season continues, outlook positive
The West Virginia Division of Natural Resources estimates about 330,000 people are expected to hunt deer this season. The gun season just got underway Monday and the two-week season runs throught December 1. Last year the agency says hunters bagged more than 60,000 bucks which was a 38 percent increase over the previous year. The harvest this year is expected to be about the same if not better.
CAMC gets okay to expand
The Charleston Area Medical Center will see some new additions after the West Virginia Health Care Authority gave its approval. The Gazette reports the health care authority issued certificates of need to the hospital for its new cancer center and another for the addition of 48 acute care beds to CAMC Memorial Hospital. Those are a necessary step before adding healthcare services and facitlities. CAMC has a campaign underway now that will raise $15 million for the new $40 million David Lee Cancer center. That should be done by 2014. There are also plans to add new floors to the Bradford Pavillion surgery building, which would likely be finished in 2015.
It's been a costly year for storm cleanup
Storms in West Virginia have been costly this year. In fact, they've cost the state $370 million in 2012. The bulk of the storm damage and the pricetag to make repairs, stems from the June 29th storms. $340 million in costs are linked to that recovery. Superstorm Sandy left up to 2 feet of snow across the eastern portion of the state in October, and the preliminary numbers from Sandy are just over $30 million so far.
Putnam County Sheriff's hiring
If you've ever thought about a career in law enforcement, now is the time to apply. The Putnam County Sheriff's Department is hiring as it expands its force. To apply, you must be at least 18 years of age and have a high school diploma or equivalent. After training, deputies earn an average of $40,000 a year, according to a news release from the department. Applications are available now at the Putnam County Sheriff's Department Monday through Friday between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. The deadline to apply is Dec. 28.
