he won't beat henderson franklin or anderson but there is some other good match ups for him there.
The UFC has announced on their website, that UFC light heavyweight contender Michael Bisping will be dropping down to middleweight. Here's what Bisping had to say:
"Even though I've never fought at middleweight, I've gone back and forth with the decision to go down pretty much my whole career," Bisping said. "Even from my very first pro fight (April 2004), people were telling me that I was a little too small for the light heavies. But I kept winning and, at least before I stepped up to the UFC, I was winning easily so I didn't really take much notice."
While Bisping is more suited for the middleweight division, it's not going to be an easy road to the top. The UFC middleweight division lacks fighter, but the ones it does have are first class. Bisping will have to take on the likes of Anderson Silva, Rich Franklin, Yushin Okami and Dan Henderson, all of which would probably beat Bisping 9 out of 10 times.
he won't beat henderson franklin or anderson but there is some other good match ups for him there.
Ok hendo and silva maybe not but franklin heed have a fighting chance.
Franklin look beat Mike up. hands down.. i would like to see Micheal vs Ed Or Kyndal cuz they both r from the same TUF show and they both made it in the ufc.. i think Micheal would beat them both
rich franklin looked inferior to anderson silva, but that's because silva is franklin's kryptonite. franklin is pretty good. henderson and silva are still in their own class though.
yeah I fell that Franklin needs to leave the UFC or switch divsions because he cant beat Hendo or Anderson if he fought them both 10 times. They are elite and he is just above average. He isnt great in any aspect of MMA. Striking good not great just like his Subs and wrestling and takedowns and sub def. everything is good not great. Thats why he isnt great. I really dont know what he will do. One of the fighters that are stuck in a hard place. He would do great in a different organization like Elite XC. He would be a huge pick up for them when his contract ends which is iono. But when it does I would like to se that happen.Or have him go to M-1. Give Fedors new org a better roster. More depth blah blah blah. Besides they are going to try and be like pride but it is gonna be like 3 orgs. into one show basically. Its a good idea. I miss the good pride fights that made crocop and fedor nogueria and all the pride fighters so popular. Wanderlei Silva is a beast. I hope he can get back to his winning ways starting with Chuck.
The Middleweight division needs somebody else in the mix to shake it up. I think its a good decision by Bisping to drop down.
we all know bisping dropped to middleweight to duck a rematch with matt hamill!! bisping def lost that fight. anyway, on a diff note, i wonder what is going on with cro crop. i actually wanted to see cro cop come back against brock lesnar. that would be a great fight. but then, looks like mir would be lesnar's next victim.
i think lesnar would take down and keep cro cop there… it would be a bad matchup for mirko…. i like the idea of bisping dropping down while i dont think he will be number 1 anytime soon i think he could be top 5 and he will never be near the top 5 in 205. i think thats an interesting take on him dropping down is that he's ducking hamill which verywell could be true hahaha. franklins not gunna leave the ufc. and people who say he is just good are stupid he has lost only to anderson in the ufc… who has faced anderson and not lost in the ufc? he's a great fighter give him his respect. he wont go to a shitty organization to look good thats not his style… and he would smash bisping lets be honest
While were being honest Anderson and Henderson are great right? YES. Will Franklin ever be able to beat either of them? HELL NO. So therefore Rich Franklin is not Great. Its common sense. To be Great u have to be able to beat ppl that are great. Rich Franklin just cant beat great fighters. So I guess ppl who think he is great is stupid. I lol to anyone who thinks he is great. I consider great as saying he is elite. Why wouldnt he leave the UFC? It makes sense b/c he cant beat the champ and he cant go to a differnt weight class and get the belt so what is he gonna accomplish?? Nothing. He will get more wins over mediocre fighters like Jason MacDonmald and Nate Quarry but he will not beat a great fighter.
Jason MacDonald**
your an idiot how is being number three after anderson and hendo not being elite? thats like saying since rampage lost to silva twice hes not a great fighter hes just good… or since lidell lost to rampage twice hes just a good figher now right? show some respect to a former champion. before anderson silva came and knocked him off he was on a tear through the division… the crow was ranked number 3 before franklin smashed him… and evan tanner was ranked one of the best in that weight class and rich took his title, he also beat shamrock more convincingly than ortiz… silvas a bad matchup for anyone. rich is too good for elite xc and hes too good for m1. jason mdonald is a good fighter, rich franklin makes him look bad, rich will alway be remembered as one of the greats and losing twice to arguably the best fighter pound for pound in the world today will not change that.
I'm not one to get involved when there's name calling going on
However, I disagree with your logic Steve. Just because Rich Franklin can't beat the current champ (because styles make fights) doesn't mean he's not "great" or not "elite." By that "common sense" you speak of, everyone in every division who is not the current champ is not great. Is GSP not elite? Is Hughes not great? Come on man. I think you're being a bit too critical. I mean really, was that your opinion before Franklin was beat by Anderson? While Franklin was the UFC Champ, the rest of the world considered Franklin one of the best while Steve was off in his own little corner thinking Franklin is just mediocre? I think not.
Now as for Bisping. It's a good change for him. Albeit, I don't think he'll be successfull with the top 5 at MW.
yeah man franklin is great…he was on top for the lost time in the ufc and he is still way better then them all but 2 guy i think can beat franklin in mwd.micheal bisping could be in the top i think 5.. he going to be strong at 185 and he will maybe be taller then most of them and he has good strikes and now he is going to have more speed and more knock out power because they guys r going to be small so they r easyer to knock out
Yeah, I can see Bisping in the top 5. Franklin is a solid #2 in my opinion. Just goes to show how dominant Anderson Silva is right now. Everyone seems to think Henderson is going to wipe the floor with him. And anything can happen. But if Anderson Silva wins that fight, then the same people will be calling him the best P4P fighter in the world the next day on forums.
franklin is still a bad ass he will beat anyone in that divsion except anderson and maybe henderson. i think henderson would beat him but they would have to fight to be sure.maybe if franklin trained with someone else he could come back in a year after beating all the top middle weights and try anderson again.
ya i think franklin would be a lot better off with a change in training partners… he should go train with tito and hamill and work on his wrestling
ya i think franklin would be a lot better off with a change in training partners… he should go train with tito and hamill and work on his wrestling and he could help tito and hamill with their striking. tito and franklin would push the hell out of eachother they are both cardio freaks
I am surprised there is so much Franklin Worship going on here… I respect the guy! But,.. after watching his second defeat to Silva he went down in my estimations. Before the arrrival of Anderson Silva the MWD was not as strong as other UFC divisions.. so to an extent Franklin was kicking at lot of Mediorce Ass (I say Mediocre in relation to top guys i.e Wanderlei, Couture etc)
so,… I reckon Dan Henderson would Destroy Franklin – He's a MUCH better wretler, has a stronger chin, and heavier hands…and has fought higher pedigree of apponements in Pride fot Years!
Also,… Why do people constantly underestimate Bisping. Bisping was disapointing in the fight against Hamill Yes,… He was afraid of the take downs and did not trade on his feet much. It was a bad match up for Bisping and a crap fight… Much the same against Evans – but when you watch the Evans show reel you see him dominate a lot of fighters – He did not dominate Bisping… Bisping is a much better Fighter than he is given credit for. I think he will be at No. 3 at MW – Henderson & Anderson Silva will dominate for a while to come.
But… I reckon Bisping will take Franklin, Nate the great, Lutter etc.
I would like to see Bisping take this route to a title shot!
1. Alan Belcher
2. Patrick Cote
3. Chris LebenKendal Grove
4. Kendal Grove
5. Henderson or Anderson for the Title
Take it Easy – Bring on CHUCK v WANDI! Been waiting on that your years!!!
I know Bisping is tough and his hands are very good but I cant put him ahead of Franklin right now. Yeah, Anderson and Henderson are at the top, then Franklin, then the rest right now IMO.
franklin would beat bisping.. but i do think chris and disping would be a badass fight and i think he should fight kendal cuz they were on the same show and then bisping could say he was the TUF win in Middle weight and in Light heavy that would be badass
i hope franklin doesn't show up as a contestant on the Ultimate Fighter, just like serra. that would be really sad.
LMAO THe UFC's weakest division by far is the Middleweight Division. U dont even know who the winner of Anderson vs Henderson could fight. Franklin like DanP said fights a lot of mediocre fighters. Dane Drebin go check em out they r not good fighters!! they r mediocre. That is a fighter that is not that good. WHat happened to The crow when he left the UFC huh? He lost to a guy named joey villasenor. He isnt in the UFC. but he was #3 before Rich beat him up. That shows the weakness in middleweight. It is a horrible example with Rampage.LOL Rampage has beaten great fighters. Who has rich beat that is categorized as great?? His toughest opponent he has ever faced is probally Yushin Okami.=not elite. Elite fighters can beat elite fighters plain and simple. Rich has proven he cannot. He would get smashed by Dan Henderson. It wouldnt even be close. Rich had his moment when he capitalized off a weak 185 lb div. Now it has some great fighters in it and he is shit out of luck. Ohh and Chuck would knock rich out in the 1st rd. shit thats why Rich fights at 185. He cant compete with 205 lb. division. Rich will not always be remembered as one of the greats!!! Wanderlei and Chuck And Randy and CroCop and Fedor ANd Henderson and Anderson are greats. Along with many others. Just not Rich Franklin.
say what u want i think rich would knock bisping the fuck out… DanP i think its funny u say rich has faught all mediocre guys but oh man bisping he's somethin special right cuz he could go three rounds with rashad the wrestler whos only knock out that comes to mind was against sean salmon… whos sean salmon? who the fuck is bisping? elvis sinosic an austalian with more loses almost than wins almost knocked him the fuck out… matt hamill man handled him and won that fight. he is by far the weakest TUF winner ever. if he didnt fight that blue haired mohawk dude who was fightin up a weight class in the final thanks to a bye from hamill gettin hurt u wouldnt even know bisping right now. i hope he fights evan tanner in evans first fight back and tanner ground and pounds him into submition in early round three to show u just how far he is from that championship. he will never touch it i could name a lot of people in that division who could beat him off the top of my head: Hendo, anderson, franklin, okami, filho (if he got it to the ground), lutter, lindland, tanner, and i even think that mcdonald or leben it would be a toss up between either of them and bisping to be honest. franklins young and just needs to get into a better camp and i think he will improve a lot. he's got a great record and while i dont think he's gunna be champ anytime soon with hendo or anderson around he still is a former champion, a guy with great sportsmanship, and a knockout artist that wont be forgotten anytime soon after he retires. and hes the next in line as far as rankings go after hendo and anderson… bein number 3 in a ufc weight division aint half bad in my book, rich franklins elite until someon else in the 185 division steps up and beats him other than silva… and personally i dont think bisping the britt boywonder is gunna be the man to do it. he will get shut down a lot farther down the line before he gets to rich.
Jeez DanP, I don't get it. To sit here and say things like Franklin kicked a lot of "mediocre ass." Then in the same breath, claim you think Bisping of all people would take him, and that he's underestimated blah, blah, blah. The fact is, you may not consider Franklin elite, or the competion he's faught, but let's do a comparison between Franklin and Bisping. Franklin has wins over Loiseau, Okami, Tanner (twice), Macdonald, , Quarry, Shamrock. Those fighters may not fit into "your" idea of "elite names", but by comparison, what names has Bisping fought? Every fighter he has wins over pales by comparison. Bisping #3??? Are you kidding?? I don't think Bisping would get past Leben. In fact, I think Leben would kick his ass.
Joe, you make some fair points. What I am saying is that Franklin is a known quantity… he is very good but not Great. I think in time Bisping will prove himself to be very good also… and I think he could beat Franklin! (Bisping will have to earn respect by beating these top level fighters… I think he will do)
You make a comment about my idea of who the 'elite fighters' are… After years of watching Pride FC & UFC… I think I have a pretty good idea…
I thought I made it clear what I meant by Top guys… Nate Quarry etc are not the best in the world… they were decent fighters the the UFC had in the MW division at the time…
This stuff is all about opinions… I think Bisping has the skill set to beat Leben, Grove etc… you don't… In time one of us will be proved right!
Yes, one of us will be proved right. After years of following MMA myself, I think you don't have a very good idea. I think you lack sufficient grounds to base your opinions. It's easy to go around stating what seems to be the obvious.
When Franklin was the champ, were you going around telling people he was "mediocre" or "not great"? I doubt it. Like so many other people, the minute someone looses a couple fights or is not the current champ, someone says they're either washed up, not elite, not great, a can, etc…
Franklin IS a great fighter, and in my opinion he would mop the cage with Bisping along with many other MW fighters. In fact, I can't wait to see that fight, because I'll be the first one back here rubbing it in.
Let me ask you something. Do you think Anderson Silva is elite? Do you think he's overrated? Since styles make fights, you do know, eventually someone is going to come along and beat him. When that happens are you going to start telling people he was only good "at the time for the division?" Are you going to tell people he was overrated? You know, since styles make fights, it's entirly possible that the person who beats Anderson Silva may then get beat by Rich Franklin. If that's the case, will Franklin then be on your list of elite fighters?
well u know Dan Henderson and Wanderlei silva were the pride middlewight champ at one time. Something that Anderson could not do. But yes anderson is a great stand up fighter. I think he is lacking on the ground game. But he is so good at striking and even transitioning on the ground. That is why he is great. But he wasnt top #3 in Pride ever. But I think he is great. Rich would have got destroyed in Pride. Would not have had a chance. He would have been KO'd. Pride = less rules and more of an actual fight. Rich would beat Bisping up but Bisping isnt very good. Hamill is a wrestler who beat the shit out of him for about 11minutes when he fought bisping. Stand up and ground and pound. I know he is built for middleweight but the only reason he is moving to middleweight is cuz he cant make it in the 205 lb. Div. Rashad Evans is way overrated by the UFC. I think they are trying to get more blacks to be stars so they can get more black fans into the sport.I think Tito beat Rashad!!! They need to do something about the cage. It is just stupid to have something that is going to tempt u that much. In Pride if u grab the rope they slap and pull ur hand off it. Not take a point away. 1 point is too much to take away in a 3 or even a 5 rd. fight. They need to spend money and find a new thing like plexy glass that doesnt stick to skin. That would be a good idea!!!Right??
ok guys, it's time to settle this with the law of the land. rich franklin IS GREAT, but NOT ELITE. unfortunately, anderson silva and dan henderson are still alive. these guys are elite middleweights because they come from pride, where they have much better opposition back in the day. i have to say rich franklin is probably the 3rd best middleweight in the UFC. he just can't beat silva or henderson, unless he pulls a matt serra. everyone fighter has their weaknesses. mike tyson had buster douglas, and franklin has silva & henderson.
and please, let's get started with bisping. although i detest him (because of the poor sportmanship he displayed when he LOST to hammill and didn't even acknowledge the close fight), he has the tools to beat franklin.
Mike Tyson's weakness wasnt Buster Douglas it was himself. he was self-destructive. He went over to Japan where he fought douglas but while he was there he partied all night and just fucked around. That is why he lost t douglas and it has been down hill since then.
Why do u say Rich Franklin is Great? If he is great shouldnt he be able to beat great fighters? And if so who can he beat thats great? cuz he sure hasnt beaten a gret fighter yet.
you can say rich franklin is not elite because he is number three… as absurd as that sounds and it does sound stupid… i dont think anyone can claim that bisping is better than rich. rich would mop the floor with bisping plain and simple. he would knock bisping the fuck out. rich was knocking out top middleweights before silva ended his reign. he was a very dominant champion … granted in the weakest division… but still deserves his credit. he has way more heavy hands than bisping. bispings shots are crisp but the has to pepper shots until someone gives up (which he as never done against a worthy opponent) while rich has 1 punch knockout power in both hands. bisping likes to out work his opponents with his cardio and that will not be an issue for franklin if he gets proper training time after this injury. franklins huge as a middleweight and i can promise u he's a lot bigger than bisping. macdonald said he was bigger than bisping. lets get real people franklin coulda coached bispings season of tuf if the cercumstances were right and haha atleast then bisping could practice with franklin and know he would get worked by his coach. i gess hes gunna have to find out the hardway
this is going round and round in circles…. Franklin is a very good fighter I agree… I would like to see Franklin beat the following fighters, then get another Title Shot at either Hendo or Silva…
1. Chris Leben
2. Travis Lutter
3. Nate Marquart
4. Hendo/Silva for the Title
If he beat Leben, Lutter & Nate then I would put up there with the best!
Joe… you are obviously a big Franklin fan… thats fair enough…But it doesn't change the fact that you are a Dick…
I wont dispute that I am a DICK. In fact, I would say that's an understatement. Thanks for watering it down.
Actually, I like Franklin's attitude. Other than that, I'm not a die hard Franklin fan, I just genuinely believe that you and many others are wrong about him and far too critical of most fighters when it comes to deciding whether or not they're good or great.
Like this for example. Steve said: "Why do u say Rich Franklin is Great? If he is great shouldn't he be able to beat great fighters? And if so who can he beat thats great? cuz he sure hasnt beaten a gret fighter yet."
Okay, by that logic, since he didn't beat Silva (obviously considered to be a great fighter) he's not great. Although Besides Franklin, in the last 4 years, Anderson Silva's record doesn't reflect a laundry list of wins over "great elite" fighters either. Of course, as soon as someone beats Silva, he as well will "go down in your estimations." Although I guess you never really answered DanP, DO YOU THINK ANDERSON IS ELITE???
Also how about
1. Chris Leben
2. Travis Lutter
3. Nate Marquart
Are they elite? If not, how's Franklin beating them going to prove to you that he's great?
Those fighters are not Elite. The only Elite fighters in UFC's Middleweight division right now are Hendo and Spider. Lets be honest the UFC babies fan favorites. Rich is still a fan favorite. So if Hendo beats Silva which is probaly gonna happen then I think franklin will get another shot at the title after about 3 fights. We have our opinions i am done on this topic. I just dont feel Rich is Great. He is above average. Anderson showed why he isnt elite.
I'm not counting out Anderson Silva yet. After he demolished Franklin twice it seems like people are more willing to say Rich was never a top fighter rather than saying that Anderson is that damn good. Let me just put it out there that I don't think Henderson is going to run through Anderson and that it will be a good fight. It will answer a lot of questions because we know more about how Henderson stacks up against the MMA talent right now. Maybe is Anderson beats Henderson he will get the respect he deserves and Rich will too, having been beat by a top fighter in the world.
cant wait for rich to knock out bisping hope that fight happens sooner than later
i agree with Morey.. rich is very good but silva is a beast and i think hes going to beat dan and if he doesnt its going to be a great fight and we r really going to find out who the best middle weight is and rich is elite, he just got beat by a guy who doesnt match up well with. i would like to see bisping vs Chris . and bisping vs kyndal
i personally think dan henderson is gunna beat the spider. he has stood and traded bombs witht he best in 205 and has never been knocked out. he's knocked out wandy and rampage broke his hand on hendos face and didnt come close to knocking him out. i think he will close the distance and take anderson down with his olympic quality wrestling. i dont see anderson submitting dan. i just dont see it. should be a great fight tho
His name is Kendall not kyndal. Get it right and I just want to know how he is Elite TOM. I heard why the others think he is elite but u said he was to so whats ur reason?
Rich Franklin that is**
I can't say for sure how good Rich is. Beating Shamrock and Loaisu were great victories but both guys have not seemed like top fighters since those fights. I think he is a hard worker and talented, certainly at the top of the UFC MW division. Kendall gets on my nerves but I think he has potential. Personally, I hope Bisping fights Evan Tanner in his return fight.
ok steve . well i think rich is elite because he was the ufc best MW before silva and he is still for sure in the top 3. hes a super hard work and he is very well rounded and he is super strong for a 185, and before silva fight him he never lost in the ufc as a light heavy or a middle weight. ok steve
im with tom…. the word elite… correct me if im wrong came from the word eight. as in top 8. rich is in the top three and definetly in the top elite 8 of the divisoin.
Well actually, elite comes from the Latin term eligere which means "to elect." Basically a small dominant group among a larger society with a privileged status upheld by those of a lesser status. To a lot of people here, that group consist's of ONLY Anderson Silva and Hendo…….Well, until they get beat by someone I guess. Then they'll somehow be lumped in with the non-elite. Whatever.

The loaded situation in writer-director Neil LaButes love story allows for a kind of velvet glove to reach inside ones heart, and then swirls around the intestines for a while before making its withdrawal. This leaves us, well, touched but in a way thats far from sentimental. Ed Harris stars in this monologue, set in a Northern Illinois funeral home. His wifes casket her photo perched on its lid forms the centerpiece of Sibyl Wickersheimers set. Cricket S. Meyers sound design offers the whispers and echoes of voices in an anteroom, where our bereaved widower, Ed Carr (Harris), ostensibly floats that would be his public self. But thats not what were seeing. He refers to himself being back there with them while he speaks to us through the mirror of his subconscious. What we get is his real eulogy, with the secrets he wont tell them, because hes a private person, he insists. (He wont tell us some secrets, such as his wifes final four words, either.) He has a blazingly clear reason to be so private, which is the melodramatic revelation near plays end, which forces us to confront the definition of love, and how that definition rubs up against social propriety. I didnt buy that revelation, not within the colloquial, ruminative and realistic confines of LaButes direction. But thats a small matter. The big matter is the gorgeous combination of LaButes digressive and piercingly insightful love letter with Harris tender-furious childlike and ultimately profound interpretation. Ed Carr is a bit like a chain-smoking Dostoyevskian narrator, who, while drifting onto free-associated topics and bilious commentary (on anti-smoking campaigns, for example), he is, finally, on message. And his message about the essence of love is upsetting and unimpeachable in the same breath.

Court skeptical of IQ scores in deciding execution
Tuesday - 3/4/2014, 1:18pm EST
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Supreme Court indicated Monday that states should look beyond an intelligence test score in borderline cases of mental disability to determine whether a death row inmate is eligible to be executed.
Twelve years after the Supreme Court barred execution of the mentally disabled, the justices heard arguments about how states evaluate claims of mental disability that, if substantiated, protect inmates from being put to death.
Five justices, enough to form a majority, pointed repeatedly to the margin of error inherent in IQ and other standardized tests. They voiced skepticism about the practice in Florida and certain other states of barring an inmate from claiming mental disability when his IQ score is just above 70.
"Your rule prevents us from getting a better understanding of whether the IQ score is accurate or not," Kennedy told Florida Solicitor General Allen Winsor. Kennedy and the four liberal justices objected to Winsor's argument that there is no wiggle room when an IQ score tops 70.
That score is widely accepted as a marker of mental disability, but medical professionals say people who score as high as 75 can be considered intellectually disabled because of the test's margin of error. In any case, there is a consensus that the test score should be just one factor in determining mental disability.
Lawyers for inmate Freddie Lee Hall said there is ample evidence to show that he is mentally disabled, even though most of his multiple IQ tests have yielded scores topping 70. Hall has been on death row for more than 35 years since being convicted of murdering a pregnant 21-year-old woman in 1978.
Winsor responded to sustained questioning by noting that abandoning the 70-point IQ cutoff could double the number of death row inmates who claim they are mentally disabled.
Justice Elena Kagan cut in to acknowledge that Winsor might be right about the number of claims. "But some of them may be mentally retarded," Kagan said.
Winsor said that state law has determined "they are not mentally retarded if they don't have an IQ score of 70 or below."
Justice Antonin Scalia pointed to the brutality of Hall's crime and the several steps it took to abduct and kill the pregnant woman, and a sheriff's deputy a short time later, as indications that Hall seemed to have sufficient mental capability.
"Could the state show that in refutation of his mental retardation evidence?" Scalia said, using the term for mental disability that both sides use in court papers.
The justice also noted that Hall, 68, did not raise a claim of mental disability for the first 10 years of his time in prison.
A judge in an earlier phase of the case concluded Hall "had been mentally retarded his entire life." Psychiatrists and other medical professionals who examined him said he is mentally disabled. School records from the 1950s classified Hall as "mentally retarded" -- then the commonly accepted term for mental disability.
Psychiatrists and psychologists who are supporting Hall say an IQ test alone is insufficient for a diagnosis of mental disability. They say there's a consensus among the mental health professions that accurate diagnosis must also include evaluating an individual's ability to function in society, along with finding that the mental disability began in childhood.
Florida also argues that the medical profession's consensus to relax the focus on IQ testing is a recent development, a point Scalia picked up on in an exchange with Seth Waxman, Hall's lawyer.
"They change their mind, counsel," Scalia said in a reference to the American Psychiatric Association. "This APA is the same organization that once said that homosexuality was a mental disability and now says it's perfectly normal."
Waxman was pressed by justices generally sympathetic to his case to establish a workable rule for states. "A line has to be drawn somewhere," Justice Sonia Sotomayor said.
A score of 76 would preclude an inmate from arguing mental disability, Waxman said. That cutoff, in place in Mississippi and Oklahoma, is far enough away from 70 to be outside the margin of error, he said.
Texas, the nation's busiest death penalty state, does not use a strict IQ cutoff.
A decision in Hall v. Florida, 12-10882, is expected by late June.

Manlius The village of Manlius is one step closer to renovating its Fire Station No. 2, located at 4500 Pompey Center Road.
At its meeting Tuesday night the board approved the solicitation of an appraisal of the existing site as well as the design and schematics of "minimal" renovations to the station. The appraisal will cost no more than $2,000 and the design and schematics will cost $7,355. The renovations would reduce dampness, improve drainage, improve HVAC and add windows at an estimated cost of $191,000, according to a report submitted by Leif Kallquist of Holmes King Kallquist Associates, Architects LLP at the meeting. The renovations are one of four options considered by the board regarding Station No. 2.
Other options included:
Renovation and a 4,638 square-foot addition at a cost of just under $2.3 million.
Renovations and a 2,695 square-foot addition at a cost of about $1.4 million
A new 10,000-square-foot fire station for $2.7 million, plus the cost of the land on which to build.
The renovations are in response to health and safety concerns at the station including air quality.
Manlius Mayor Mark-Paul Serafin said, subsequent to the appraisal and completion of the design and schematics, the next step would be the creation of construction drawings and going to bid.
The board has already approved $55,000 for the design and schematics for improvements to Fire Station No. 1, located at 4 Stickley Drive, including the addition of two new vehicle bays and renovation of the existing structure.
"I am currently working with the village clerk to see if we can do budgeting for the interest and principal on both of these projects, as well as renovations to the Swan Pond, without an impact on the tax rate," Serafin said. "It is my goal to have that happen."

Re: 1990s Coastal Cruisers vs. Mid 70s Bluewater Boats
All good questions. I expect to be sailing in the Sea of Cortez for a couple of years then down the coast to Panama, Ecuador, then out across the Pacific. I'm expecting light to moderate air for most of the time in Cortez.
I've read somewhere that the average wind long distance cruisers encounter is around 11 knots. But of course you need a boat that is capable of handling rough weather from time to time.
I'm agnostic regarding long overhangs and hull shape. Are the long waterlines giving up too much to safety to gain speed? I will be single handing most of the time I expect. The type of sailing I prefer to do is to sail from one anchorage to another in good weather windows then sit on the hook for a few days reading books, swimming, fishing, and relaxing. I'd like to have some comfort but don't demand a lot of extras.
As for rigs, I initially thought of Ketch rigs for easier sail handling but again do 90's boats solve the difficulty of raising and lowering large sails with better technology?
Is the Valiant 40 a bear to get going? Would a 36' 1977 Cabo Rico ketch, priced at $50K, be a bear to get going?
Or would I be smarter buying a 1993 38' Morgan Catalina MkII at $85K. Would it hold up to my sailing plans?

molybdenum 99
|University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research
|Medical radioisotopes facilitate medical imaging. The University of Missouri Research Reactor (MURR) is exploring the potential of producing one such isotope, molybdenum-99, using a new process that utilizes low enriched uranium (LEU). The current process for producing molybdenum-99 uses high-enriched uranium material, which can be used to create nuclear weapons. The International Atomic Energy Agency and the National Academy of Sciences are interested to develop and distribute the LEU process to international partners to eliminate the risk of weapons grade uranium proliferation. In order to process the LEU material, MURR needs to establish that the reactor coolant flow rate is sufficient to ensure the LEU foil and the containment materials do no melt. To measure the water velocity, we are implementing two measurement strategies. The first is using a hot-wire anemometer, or HW. The HW must be calibrated before it can be used, so a calibration facility based on the weight tank/stopwatch method was built. The results from the calibration were used to estimate the flow velocity in the channel that will house the LEU during processing at MURR. The second measurement strategy will be to build an instrumented test wedge that can be placed in the reactor. The test wedge will provide more accurate flow measurements than the HW, in additional to LEU temperature measurements.

LinuxWorld Expo Recap
LinuxWorld Expo was the big event of the week of January 30 through February 5. The show was big, but the announcements were even bigger. In this week's program, I will be talking about the announcements and other happenings and what they mean to the Linux community.
The biggest announcement was VA Linux Systems' purchase of Andover.net. While we were expecting this, it seems to have come as a surprise to a lot of the world. Does it make sense? Yes, although there needs to be more.
After VA's big IPO last year, their stock has been dropping from a high of 320 right after the IPO in December to a low of 105-1/2 last month. A market capitalization in the billions (between $5 and $15 billion, depending on when you looked at it) just doesn't make long-term sense for a company that had $30 million in sales last year. The trick is to take some of that extra money, and go buy someone (or something) that helps make you look bigger.
Andover can offer the first step for VA. Their purchase of slashdot.org and other web sites offers them a lot of web traffic and has made them well-known among Linux geeks. While there is little financial data available about them yet, in the fourth quarter of calendar year 1999 they had about $2 million in revenues and $15 million in losses. While this doesn't sound like a good buy, it makes sense because the Andover web sites will offer the traffic VA needs.
But, I think it isn't enough. VA needs two more things: a service organization and a revenue stream that is significant and, in addition, one that doesn't come from selling hardware. There were VA/LinuxCare rumors for a while, but with LinuxCare doing their own IPO, that seems unlikely. My guess (I suppose you could call it the rumor I am starting) is that a VA/Corel deal is in the works. It makes a lot of sense, considering Corel is firmly into the Linux space, just announced their professional services program and has sales of $234 million.
In other happenings at the show, Applix announced a new version of Applixware Office, Atipa announced it had acquired Enhanced Software Technologies and Yodlee selected VA Linux Systems for its application servers.
There is more to come. Tune in on Tuesday for details.

Latest Gili Motang Stories
By Kathy Marks THE KOMODO dragon, a giant carnivorous lizard that feasts on water buffalo and occasionally even attacks humans, is disappearing from its limited habitat, zoologists have warned.
The fearsome Komodo dragon is the world's largest living lizard and can take very large animal prey: now a new international study has revealed how it can be such an efficient killing machine despite having a wimpy bite and a featherweight skull.
Latest Gili Motang Reference Libraries
The Komodo Dragon (Varanus komodoensis) is the largest lizard in the world, growing to a length of about 10 feet (3 meters) and weighing between 175 to 310 lb (80 and 140 kg). It is a member of the monitor lizard family, Varanidae. Dragons have keen senses and are considered among the most intelligent living reptiles. They are carnivorous, hunting live prey with a stealthy approach followed by a sudden short charge (they can run briefly at speeds up to 20 km/h). They have a strong bite...

good location, house needs major improvement
certainly a good location in Leland however not recommendable for the above mentioned various reasons.
As for the pet hair, my wife and I were out the week prior to this rental and there was not pet hair everywhere and the whole house had been vacuumed at lest twice since our winter renter (who did have a pet unbeknownst to us). Tenant conveniently left out the fact that we let them take possession a day early because we didn't have a renter the prior week.
Most of our renters are return renters so we must be doing something right.

Restaurant Review
You have heard the whispers… Well, it is time to make your reservations at Crossings before the impending roar. This new South Pasadena restaurant is about to become a destination.
Crossings, located at 1010 Mission Street in South Pasadena, will not remain a whisper much longer. Proprietor Patrick Kirchen, Chef Lalo Sanchez and General Manager Matthew Coleman have created an excuse to stay local when looking for a quality dining experience. In fact, they have created such a quality dining experience, it is sure to attract patrons from all over Los Angeles and San Gabriel Valley. Crossings is located adjacent to the Mission Street Gold Line Station, but that should not stop the local residents from claiming this gem as their own.
Patrick Kirchen lives locally. After a successful career working for some of the areas finest restaurants (The Arroyo Chop House and La Grande Orange to name just a couple) he felt the timing was right to finally fulfill his own dream. While Patrick was working at The Chop House and Lalo was at The Parkway Grill, they had the opportunity to discuss different menus, wine pairings and operational standards over several years If ever afforded the opportunity, they had developed a solid vision as the framework.
That opportunity presented itself after Patrick and his wife were walking down Mission Street last year. They happened upon a for lease sign in the window of 1010 Mission Street. Anyone familiar with that building prior to the opening of Crossings would be hard pressed to realize its potential. But, Patrick had a vision. To say the property needed work is an understatement. A load bearing wall would have to be removed. The second floor would have to be raised to accommodate the wine cellar that would be required. After long hours and buckets of debris, Crossings started to take shape. As the general layout was formed, Patrick called upon the artistic assistance of Tamara Kaye-Honey, with House of Honey to complete the look.
When you enter Crossings. you immediately realize that you are in store for a special evening. Downstairs there is an open kitchen, a quaint bar and spacious seating inside and in the rear patio. Crossing does not force as many seats as possible in any one area and you can feel the open space around. A staircase leads you upstairs, past quirky collections of trinkets, to another bar and more comfortable seating with a view. The ambiance changes from downstairs, to the patio and again upstairs, each creating another reason to come back again for a different experience.
The décor and open kitchen will make your mouth water upon your entrance. Once you sit down to your table, your evening is really about to begin. Patrick, Lalo and Matthew's time spent going over menus, wines and operations becomes strikingly apparent and makes for a memorable evening. The staff is well trained and professional. They know Lalo's menu intimately and are ready to help you pair the proper wine with any entrée.
When speaking with Lalo, you can feel his passion for the philosophy surrounding the food he serves. Crossings may concentrates on seafood, but any palate will be pleased. The menu was developed around only the freshest seasonal and sustainable offerings available. In fact, Crossings also was quick to capitalize on the weekly Farmers Market located just steps away each Thursday. Inspired by the Farmers Market, Lalo has presents a Market Salad totally based upon selections from the Farmers Market.
As an example, I was fortunate to be offered an appetizer I might not normally choose. Since peaches were in season, Lalo brought me his Peaches and Burrata Salad. He slightly grilled the fresh peaches and paired them with a divine creamy burrata (similar to a mozzarella), prosciutto, arrugula and perfectly dressed with a balsamic dressing. The combination of the sweet, savory and peppery arrugula was heavenly.
I wanted to try both a seafood offering and something that meat lovers might enjoy. Lalo first brought me out one of his specialties, the Striped Bass. The generous portion of precisely cooked bass was served over a white bean and zucchini ragout that seemed to marry together perfectly. The addition of the charred tomatoes and pesto only made for a meal I would like to return for and try another seating area only to see if the change in ambiance could possibly make it better. I was next introduced to the Kurabuta Pork Chop. This thick cut pork chop, served over dumplings, perfectly prepared endives and a Szechwan reduction was simply amazing. The reduction works so well with the pork chop, I ate every bite even after my previous entrée.
While the servers are intimately aware of pairing wines from their extensive wine collection (which focuses of California selections but branches out to Argentina, Chile and beyond), I decided to accept an offer from the Bartender. Damian uses his knowledge of spirits and patience to create unique cocktail offerings. With the addition of age old recipes and 30 days in a seasoned oak barrel, he creates various cocktails as another option for your dining experience. I was introduced to The Aviation. Upon entering I should have expected this little surprise twist, but it was definitely one of the many reasons that will bring me back again.
Patrick is often asked what inspired the name Crossings. He is often quick to say the simple answer lies in their proximity to the Mission Street Gold Line Station. He is more than aware that people will associate the name and even take advantage of the stop. But, as you might expect, a vision developed over years has a more philosophical and inspirational meaning. As Patrick told me, Crossings is more about "crossing our lives, our food and the people that come to eat here. The train just happens to be there." So, it is time to make your crossing to Crossings before the whisper you have heard becomes a roar. This restaurant is sure to become a destination.

Three Friends at Sunset, Best fit 5 x 10, 8 x 16.
As I was leaving the Park the blazing sun dominated the background. Everywhere I looked I saw an amazing scene. The park is on a hill and while the sun was setting it felt more like being on a plateau. I took this picture on my way out before I got to the skateboarders and the last little bit of light faded away completely. There was a much larger scene here and I debated the crop for a long time. I did not want to lose those young women and their obvious involvement with a text on the phone, but I wanted to show the expanse as well.

"This ceremony is a turning point in my life and Dr. Borlaug's achievements create the light that will show me the path. Dr. Borlaug is a great inspirational source and his works, his dedication, passion and empathy for the downtrodden will always inspire us to do our best," Kalia said.
Kalia's project is "Methodology for Efficient Mapping of Alien Introgression for Adult Plant Resistance to Leaf Rust and Other Agronomic Traits in Wheat Aegilops Tauschii Hybrids." She and the 11 other award recipients will conduct at least one season of field work in a developing country.
"The committee was extremely pleased at the quality of the submissions for the first year," said Monsanto Beachell-Borlaug International Scholars Program Director Dr. Ed Runge. "It was great to see such a diverse group of candidates from all over the world submit their research projects for review. Dr. Beachell and Dr. Borlaug dedicated their lives to improving rice and wheat breeding in order to feed the world, and the committee is certain the 12 recipients -- and all of those who submitted projects -- will carry on their legacies."
Rice and wheat are considered by many to be the most important staple crops in developing countries, providing necessary calories to feed billions of people every day. Many of the world's poorest people rely on the two grains as a key source of food. Accelerating yield growth will help reduce hunger by helping to produce more food on the same number of acres.

Transurban Reports Profit on Toll Revenue, Cost Cuts
Aug. 12 (Bloomberg) -- Transurban Group, Australia's biggest operator of toll roads, returned to full-year profit on an increase in toll revenue and cost cuts.
Net income was A$59.6 million ($53.3 million) in the 12 months ended June 30, from a A$16.1 million loss a year earlier, the Melbourne-based company said in a statement today. The company named Lindsay Maxsted chairman, replacing David Ryan.
Transurban's announcement of a return to profit comes nine months after it rejected a A$5.25-a-share takeover offer from its biggest investors. Transurban in May spurned a sweetened A$5.57-a-share offer, saying it undervalued the company.
"Our growth projects will further enhance the Group's performance," Transurban Chief Executive Officer Chris Lynch said in the statement. The company's planned dividend payout next year of at least 26 cents per share "demonstrates confidence in our capacity to continue to add value," he said.
The shares added 2.9 percent to close at A$4.56 in Sydney, paring their loss in 2010 to 17 percent.
The owner of the Pocahontas 895 in Virginia said this week it had finalized its A$630.5 million acquisition of Sydney's Lane Cove Tunnel, after raising A$542 million in capital.
Global pension and sovereign wealth funds are seeking assets such as toll roads that deliver steady returns to match their future payouts. The Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, one of Transurban's bidders, is in due diligence to take over the assets of Sydney-based toll-road operator Intoll Group.
