Sam Monson of Pro Football Focus recently ranked the current starting lineups of all 32 NFL teams for an ESPN Insider piece and the Pittsburgh Steelers come in 27th overall on the list.
Monson writes:
Once held up as a shining example to the rest of the league for how to run a franchise, the Steelers have allowed their roster to be eroded talent-wise for several years now, and are clinging onto being in contention for playoff spots at the end of the season largely thanks to having a top-quality quarterback and little else.
The team simply has not drafted well, failing to replace key personnel when they needed to, and then persisting with struggling players long past the point they should have given up on them. Ike Taylor is still used as if he were a shutdown corner, shadowing an opponent's best receiver despite surrendering six touchdowns in 2013 and a passer rating into his coverage of 110.6. The departure of Emmanuel Sanders in free agency means the team needs Markus Wheaton to step up, and for all the draft picks spent on the offensive line, it remains a unit that has yet to distinguish itself.
I understand where Monson is coming from, but 27th overall? He has the Cleveland Browns ranked 24th, just so you know.
Ben and Brown are unquestionably elite. How is Miller not at least a good starter? Timmons is boarderline elite. He way underrated some of these players.
I agree with him on the big ben statement. Without him this is only a 4 or 5 win team.
Timmons should be high quality and maybe bell. I agree with the rest.
How is Antonio Brown not elite?
110 Receptions
1,499 Receiving Yards
8 Touchdowns
Depends how you define elite. Is he top 5 at his position. I would have to say no because of his lack of red zone production.
Please tell me this is just a sick joke because almost all of these are wrong.
I actually don't mind us not having any "elite" players listed. We do have some "very good" players though (Ben, Antonio, Pouncey, DeCastro, Timmons).
When I think of "elite" though I think of how Troy used to be, or how Harrison used to be, or how Ben used to be, or even how maybe Heath used to be.
The honest truth is (as far as how non-Steeler fans view us) right now we have a lot of good/great players but no real super stars. And I agree.
What we do have is the potential for our whole to be better than the sum of our spots. Our guys are good in their role. In our system.
I have to remind myself that this is the desert of the offseason. Bloggers and writers and even talking heads are desperate for content. They will take whatever comes their way, be it worthy or not fit for print. This rating seems to be a long reach, in the dark, by a blind man for something to try to stay relevant in the seasonal downturn of the phenomenon known as the NFL.
Opinions are just that, until they get past the mediocre 8-8's they will get no love from the media. We has homers always want our guys to above average to elite status, but 8-8 equals average.
On paper the arrow is pointing up for this season, we shall see.
I agree with the exception of A. Brown. He's a top 5 receiver in this league, without question. He may not have had the reception TDs last year, but he reminds me a lot of Jerry Rice as far as athleticism, route running and intelligence is concerned. If that doesn't make him elite, I don't know what does. I get the lack of red zone production, but that'll continue to develop.
Looks about right as we stand right now except Mitchell should be listed as a Good Starter. Everyday I read articles and comments about how we need McLendon, Jones, Cortez to step up and improve on D and how the O-Line needs to improve. I think Bell needs to play all season like he did at the end of last and Heath needs to bounce back. Depending on how many of those things happen, we should end up top 5-15. If none do then I guess 27th?
Sam Monson makes a couple of points that I believe caused the team to drop to the 8-8 record they've had the past couple of years. He seems off-base with his final assumption though, failing to see the progress and seeming momentum that has spread through much of the team.
Did poor 2008/2009 drafts lead to a team that struggled to replenish? Yes.
Is their top-quality QB a big reason the team is in most games?
Offensive line distinguished itself yet?
No, not yet anyway.
Buuuut, did the team persist with struggling players long past the point they should have given up on them?
I don't think so, no. I watched the team exit out some of the best Steelers in history. Ike was moved from the #1 cover corner midway thru the season in 2013 when he fell off.
Many of the individual rankings, as well as his overall ranking, do not seem to consider team progress, player growth, and momentum, along with returning players and new coaches. I think he misses the mark there, which causes him to be off by a fair bit.
27? Hard to make sense of that given an 8-8 finish, even with the 'not-Elite' QB.
I'll throw my dart at the board to land on a ranking of between 18-20 for 2013, with the arrow pointing up in several team areas.
My 2014 dart projects itself to hit a 10-12 overall ranking with a playoff appearance and an AFC North title.
Suck on that Sam Monson.
Carolina was12-4 last year, what would they be without Cam? San Diego without Rivers?
I rank Monson 103rd sports reporter just behind Rapaport.
How can you rate JJ or Wheaton yet? There is not enough data to make a determination on either.
I second your ranking. Go Steelers!
Let's get him!! Lol
This tool will be eating his words at the end of the season. The mere fact that he has Cleveland ranked 24th should tell you that he suffers from some kind of rationalization imbalance.
PPF base these on numbers… Our defense was shredded last season and offense was very dull until the 2nd half of the season when they turned it on.. I wouldn't look to much into this.. Seattle has the best players which makes sense they won a Super Bowl and had a great year.
I agree with most of his ratings, but Ben is an elite qb and none of the other ratings really matter that much. An elite qb makes average players better.
Well done sir…I see what you did there!
I really think that at least 1 or 2 players between Worilds, Timmons, Heyward, and DeCastro would have been High Quality, and putting Heath Miller as average starter makes me question his sanity in the first place.
True for Wheaton, but let's be honest, JJ had a poor year (albeit as a rookie).
Most of this actually makes sense… of course as fans, we always expect players to overproduce, and the steelers have done so routinely (most notably in the 2005 SB run as a 6th seed). We may call it as rebuilding, reloading, whatever, but we had a massive roster turnover since 2010 (only 4 starters remain on O and 3 on D).
I don't agree with the assessment of starters; however, I do agree with one thing with this article, the Steelers simply haven't drafted well over the past six years. Too many players drafted, never developed. And one more important note, they have held onto their players far too long after their prime.
Le'Veon Bell will have 1200 yards and 50 catches this year. That yellow will turn dark green in two years.
Jerry Rice???? Love AB, but slow your roll there bro.
San Diego ran the ball well last year and Carolina had a pretty good defense to help out those two qbs.
I understand a lot of people follow PFF, but this is just another example of a fantasy football mentality passing for football analysis. Many teams that perpetually sucked had a top 10 pick every year for the past 10 years, some (SF) still can't win a SB. Some can't even get close (Cleve), yet if you looked at their rosters they're loaded with superstars. It's how you play as a team and not the sum total of you individual talent. And by the way, as stupid as his approach is, the writer is wrong to the low side on no fewer than seven of his rankings.
Although I think the evaluation was right on in some respects (Cam Thomas truly is only an average starter, let's face it) in other ways it was waaaayyyyy off.
AB is widely considered one of the top 5 receivers in the league – therefore elite almost by definition.
If LeVeon Bell is average, then I think we need to draft more 'average' players like him!!!
Timmons, Heyward, and DeCastro could be considered 'high quality' as well.
This doesn't really bother me – let's see where we finish when/where it matters – on the field in January!!!
I would agree with this, except a ranking of 27th out of 32 is way below average. Looking at the colors in that chart, the Steelers roster as a whole is average (should be in the middle of the pack), so this writer is saying 5/6ths of the league is above average?
The Steelers went 6-2 in the second half when most of their players were healthy, and started 2-6 when the team was broken. (Early games were without the starting center, starting TE, backup TE, starting RB, etc.) I have a feeling the writer used the games when these players weren't healthy to drag down the rating.
Flying under the radar is fine by me.
Its it april already.. lol Take this ranking with a grain of salt. It's bs
Pro's – I hope the rest of the NFL underestimates the Steelers as much as this guy.
Stephon Tuitt DE – not even on the list? 6ft 5 303lbs (kind of hard to miss)
The Steelers have to prove themselves (before) they can have an elite lineup. That certainly has not been there the past two years.
I like being under-the-radar. I think the Steelers have handled their team in an appropriate manner. I prefer l loyalty and class over cutting bait at the perfect time. I like continuity, I like when players are rewarded for excellent play, and I understand that the Steelers have been picking in the 20's-30's for the most part in this century. And that takes a toll over 7 rounds and several years. I think they deserve their low ranking, but that they will prove it wrong in 2014. I think the Steelers will be significantly more diverse on both sides of ball. I think the speed will help special-teams become a moderate strength instead of a huge weakness like most seasons, or an "ehhhh" like last season (sometimes good, sometimes bad).
Last year, the Chiefs' defense was ranked 21th around this time. Their defense finished the season ranked 5th. I'm ready for the season to start so that we can stop relying on lousy prognostications.

Beagles Are Barking With Joy Today!
This is a great day for animals, the government and common sense. We're thrilled that following months of campaigning by PETA and other groups, including our appeals to East Riding Council and the Secretary of State, an organised protest outside the Planning Inspectorate in Bristol and almost 10,000 objections from PETA supporters, the government has recognised what the public already knew – that breeding dogs for deadly experiments is a shameful trade. Dogs aren't commodities, and they aren't test tubes with tails. These dogs have been spared the worst of all possible lives: bred for profit on a factory farm and then sent to laboratories to be poisoned with pesticides and drugs or cut up in experiments. No animal deserves this kind of fate, and the sooner the whole B&K Universal operation shuts down, the better.
What we now need from the government is positive action to cut the numbers of dogs and all other animals used in experiments. At this moment, the Home Office is considering weakening even further the legal protection for animals in laboratories in response to a new EU directive. We need to see the same kind of enlightened common sense on this issue as we've seen today from the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government. Please take action to stop this from happening.
In this century with our advanced scientific knowledge, there should be no reason to have to inflict inhumane treatment onto emotional and spiritual creatures like dogs, cats or other. Stop this insane cruelty now!
This is an important step for beagals and hopefully soon there will be an end to animal testing. There is no place for this cruelty in the world anymore.
This is amazing news! No animal should be used in experiments, there is always a non- animal method of testing a product. The misery that these beagles suffer is dreadful all they know their entire life is the pain of being experimented on, no one should breed animals for experimentation it should be made illegal and anyway breedism should be a thing of the past, we should be finding homes for all the dogs and other animals that are in shelters through out the UK. I make sure that I always buy BUAV registered products, I will never buy anything tested on an animal.
I love this news. Brian May the guitarist of Queen ardently oppossed this cruel and shameful endeavor to torture beagles. He's abhors all cruelty against all animals. They can test on stem cells and skin cells.
Absolutly great news, marched through hull, and the hull people were gobsmacked to think this was happening on their doorstep, this has made my day, wonderful for the beagles.
what great news! i love my beagle
This has cheered me up such good news, I am very happy for the beagles.
No animal deserves to suffer. I would also like to see these fur farms closed down, I feel sick after seeing the videos, I cannot believe that in this day and age such horrible thing's go on, after seeing how these animals are treated I have started giving money to peta. And I thank you PETA for all your good work.
For God's sake, stop this NOW.
No animal deserves to suffer. Please, stop now!
Candida Sa Dantas
Well done PETA! All vivisection and animal testing must be stopped!
Well done to all the groups that took part in this joint effort! Bring on the next victory.
i love this news.. keep up the good work peta.. i love all animals, mostly dogs tho
This is great news, we live in the 21st century and like Helen Dixon has mentioned we have advanced scientific knowledge so why on earth do they test on dogs and other animals? It is DISGUSTING!
Anyway, great news for the beagles!
stop please!
Por favor, parem de autorizar a abertura destes verdadeiros campos de concentração!
I remember when I was a kid (1960s), when I would pass by St. Elizabeth's Hospital on Genesee Street, in Utica N.Y., and see all of the experiment dogs in a chain link kennel. I would go up and pet them through the fence. They would have big scars on their chest cavities, etc. Some could barely walk, and they were all from the shelters. They were someone's pet, that the animal shelter turned over to the hospital for their torture. We so need to put an end to this…the animals are not lesser than we are. We are supposed to be protecting them. The Christian religion and others, think that to have "dominion" over the animals means that we can torture them….it means that we take care of and are responsible for them! This word, "dominion,is from the 14th century, and is a human invention anyway. We are to love and respect all creation….animals are from the creator, just as we are.
please stop this.
I know this will not be popular but I'm not sure this (at this time) is such a good think. I like all of you I'm sure want to see the end of animal testing, its a horrible practice that is known not to produce accurate results for comparison to humans. My concern, on researching this facility and why it was thought to be a good business proposal, is this they are only looking to produce enough dogs to reduce the need for importing. At present dogs are used for animal testing in the UK (sadly) they are imported from countries that do not necessarily have the animal welfare laws that we have here and as well as everything else are subjected to the trauma of international travel. If we cannot at present bring an immediate end to animal testing should we not aim to make these poor creatures suffer as little as possible in the meantime?
Thanks for your comments, Jenny. This is Alistair from PETA. we do understand your concerns but we remain certain that Britain, and dogs, are better off without this facility. Despite their PR, as part of a multinational company exporting dogs for experiments (Marshall Bioresources), B&K would be very unlikely to reject the opportunity to export dogs to labs outside the UK if the demand was there. In those circumstances, we'd just end up with dogs being exported from the UK, not imported into it and the same transport problems occurring. Secondly, the availability and cost of animals does affect the level of experimentation: the more expensive and difficult to source animals are, the harder the experimenters look for alternatives. Thirdly, the campaign against the lab brought welcome publicity to the use of dogs in experiments, whoch helps us in our ultimate task ofending them. Lastly, of course, breeding animals for labs is an unethical business and Britain is better off without those.
I hope that has answered your concerns – thanks very much for your posting.
I pray that the end of animal experimentation will end soon. Some good news towards this end from Cardiff University, Wales.

All vivisection and animal testing must be stopped!

Hailing from Italy but making the world his home and playground, Rocco Siffredi has risen from local hero to international superstar thanks to his aggressive and adventurous approach to hardcore porn production. Producer, director, and star of his own movies, Rocco offers a large assortment of his best work, much of it shot recently in stunning HD video, right here on his self-titled official website. If you're a timid viewer who flinches at the first sign of spitting, slapping, choking, and double-anal-penetrations, Rocco Siffredi and his work might not be for you. If you pride yourself on being a true sexual degenerate, though, Rocco is your brother in arms.
If you're a dedicated fan of hardcore lesbian porn (and let's face it, most of us are), you'll surely know the name Viv Thomas. Having been producing adult films for thirty years, Thomas is accomplished in many niches, but specializes in lesbian hardcore and foot fetishism, both of which you'll find in plentiful supply on his official website, alongside high-res photo galleries and Europe's most devastating adult performers. Updating often and already loaded with much of Thomas's finest work, Viv Thomas awaits your attention.
One of only a handful of adult websites to remain committed to shooting gorgeous models with, not without their clothes on, Only Tease promises to be a non-stop thrill-ride of a slightly different kind. With hundreds of British girls modeling school uniforms, gym gear, sultry lingerie, swimwear, and almost anything else you could imagine them wearing in a reasonably realistic situation - so, no spacesuits then? - this site offers a hint of flesh for the gentleman of refined taste. And, with HD videos, 3000px photos and daily updates, Only Tease has never looked better!
Petter Hegre: Norwegian-born photographer, businessman, filmmaker, erotic artist, and lover of women. Hegre Art, Petter's online base, is a fantastic venue on which his immaculate erotic portraits of stunning European women are showcased in glorious high-resolution photographs and vibrant High Definition videos. If you've been hunting around for a site that gives you an incredibly up-close view of the naked forms of some of the world's most beautiful women, you're in the right place.
Most lesbians couldn't be less interested in fucking you, bro, but the lesbians of Sapphic Erotica aren't your average lesbians. They'll let you sit down, unzip, and quietly abuse yourself as they get down to business biting each others nipples, slipping two fingers inside, or grabbing a firm handful of ass. Delivered in 720p HD and in high-res photos loaded with detail, Sapphic Erotica is a lesbian-lover's dream come true. Or, at least, it could be.
Busty women - and by "busty" I mean those ranging from "cleavage-baring" to "unable to be restrained by conventional brassieres" - are a key ingredient in most pornography and especially that of Denys Defrancesco. A Frenchman now based in Budapest, Defrancesco has many websites showcasing his work, but none are more inviting than DDF Busty. Home to women with seemingly boundless breasts, hooters that leap from their underwire cages and grab your attention by the balls, demanding a closer look, DDF Busty is Defrancesco's chest-heavy porn emporium.
When lecherously staring at women, most hetero guys ogle breasts, buttocks, and faces, that's a given. But those who let their eyes wander further south aren't necessarily aiming to observe a pubic tuft or tight snatch, it's Hot Legs and Feet they're after! A DDF site with a very clear purpose and product, Hot Legs and Feet sees Europe's most sensual models pose in stockings, tights, and nothing at all before enjoying a fondling of their lower limbs. Paired with men and women (often two-at-a-time) but also going it alone in no-less-kinky solo scenes, the Euro hotties twinkling their toes at Hot Legs and Feet are well worth watching no matter where the camera is aimed.
Take a look at the top ranking pornstars today and it would appear naturally formed, surgically untouched bodies have gone the way of the dinosaurs. 21Naturals proves that this is far from the case with its showcase of stunningly beautiful, all-natural models posing nude, masturbating, and making sweet, passionate love for your viewing pleasure. Shot and delivered in HD, 21Naturals has the visual artistry to pull of some truly majestic sex scenes as you, sitting comfortably at home, pull something else entirely.

Voyager SmartBot Introduction Video
Customer Reviews of Asante Voyager Smartbot Security HD Indoor Camera
Perfect camera; exactly as described2/20/2012
This is an awesome camera. Wireless, motion sensor, high res, people detection, email and FTP. Just what I was looking for. Going to order 2 more to cover other areas of my home.
Can't get advanced features in stand-alone mode2/11/2012
I've already wrote a more positive review earlier when I did not realize that most of the cam's advanced features, such as email notification, FTP storage and intelligent recognition are only available when the camera is run with the SmartBot software on your PC. Frankly, had I known that ahead of time, I would not have bought it because to me an IP cam should operate with all its features in stand-alone mode, without being connected to a running PC. In other words, the cam's built-in firmware should provide most of those features while connected only to a power source an a router by cable or WiFi. Because this cam can't do that, I rate it only average
Good value with some weaknesses1/31/2012
I bought the SmartBot on the strength of its specs and the mostly raving reviews here. Though I am not sorry that I did, I still wish a few things were better. Like the color rendition and its low light sensitivity without the IR LEDs on. The colors are very cold and can't be adjusted much. Beside the cam's cheap look, the Web interface also looks like it was an afterthought. It's too bad because the "smarts" that went into the design of this camera deserved a better execution. But I probably shouldn't complain, considering how inexpensive the cam is compared to some others with less smarts built into them.
great functionality, has a drawback1/20/2012
1. Great resolution. 2. Easy to use software. 3. Remote access is easy via web and/or mobile device. 4. Great value when on sale. 5. Software's ability to identify people and condense the video is a great feature. 6. Good (but not exceptional) night time ability. cons - wifi encryption can not enter special character. they said will fix.
HD720 day and night camera12/19/2011
I love the camera. I love that it works with smartphones as well and that Smartbot is even making my life very easy. It's easy to setup and troubleshoot and after it's setup, it's just plug & go wherever you want around the house!!! It emailed me people ONLY unlike others give you many emails and drive you crazy to open and delete all emails.
A great smart home camera10/21/2011
I love the smartbot which is smart and easy. I set up within 10 mins. And see the video and image when I test it. A great and sharp image send to my email when it catches people or object. I do not need to watch live video.

This was a really lovely and delicious dish. I didn't have any broth so I cheated and cooked the farro in about 2 cups of water with bay leaf, onion, garlic, salt and pepper. After about 30 minutes or so I began the sauteing step as written and added the strained broth from pre-cooking the farro. It only took another 15 minutes or so to get tender enough to complete the recipe and it was truly delicious. Since I was already serving a separate chard dish, I omitted the kale and instead added about 1/3 cup chopped flat leaf parsley with the cheese at the end. It was incredible!
I so wanted to like this. It sounded so fall-ish and comforting. The farro became too glutenous, and the kale was a bit undercooked, so it didn't seem to play well with other ingredients. The best part was the squash, which would have been fine on its own. For all the time and effort, I thought it would be better. I'd maybe try arborio or brown and wild rice next time (since the farro is cooked gradually like a risotto), flavor the kale with something, and just barely toss the things together at the end. Otherwise, it's just globby like a savory oatmeal.
I have to say I am not a big fan of acorn squash. I also have not used farro that much in recipes, but this recipe is very good. It is time intensive but if you prepare your squash and pre-soak your farro ahead of time it will go a little faster. It is a recipe I will make again. This dish I made ahead of time and it was great for dinner the next day. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!!!!!
I cook with farro often and learned about it through trial and error. Farro is sold either whole, pearled or semi-pearled. It's important to know what type of farro you're cooking with. Whole grain farro includes the husk of the grain, and requires pre-soaking for several hours or overnight before using. If you use whole grain farro without soaking it, it will take much longer and signficantly more liquid than your recipe may say. Pearled or semi-pearled farro requires no soaking and cooks in about 20-25 minutes. The trade-off though is fewer nutrients.
Took a long time to make. I used barley instead of farrow and no wine. Tastes great, but maybe too consuming.
took a long time to make. Yummy but really time consuming.
This recipe is utter heaven. Wonderful Fall dish. I can't get enough if it and so pretty on the plate.
Everyone loved it and it is a great and slightly different taste. It also looked great served with the coloration from sqush and kale. It was a bit labor intensive but like previous reviewers I roasted the squash the night before which helped a lot. I also needed more liquid (and more cooking time); I originally used vermouth instead of wine and then to supplement the liquid used a combination of water, stock, and a splash more vermouth. Arborio rice might work but I think it would last the earthy taste to match the fall vegetables.
while the end result was delicious, it wasn't quite worth the 1.5+ hours it took from start to finish. if i were to make this again, i'd definitely double the recipe. it was barely enough for my husband and me... and for all that time and effort, i'd definitely want leftovers.
Pretty good. You my have to cook the farro a bit longer to get it tender

What will be the legacy of President George Walker Bush? In this fascinating, timely book, Glenn Greenwald examines the Bush presidency and its long-term effect on the nation. What began on shaky, uncertain ground and was bolstered and propelled by tragedy, has ultimately faltered and failed on the back of the dichotomous worldview — good versus evil — that once served it so well. In A Tragic Legacy, Greenwald charts the rise and steep fall of the current administration, dissecting the rhetoric and revealing the faulty ideals upon which George W. Bush built his policies.
On September 12, 2001, President Bush addressed the nation and presented a very clear view of what was to come — a view that can be said to define his entire presidency: "This will be a monumental struggle of good versus evil." Based on his own Christian faith and backed by biblical allusions, Bush's worldview was basic and binary — and everyone was forced to choose a side. Riding high on public support, Bush sailed through the early "War on Terror," easily defining our enemies and clearly setting an agenda for defeating them.
But once the war became murkier — its target unclear, its combatants no longer seen in black-and-white — support for Bush and his policies dropped precipitously. Glenn Greenwald brilliantly reveals the reasons behind the collapse of Bush's power and approval, and argues that his greatest weakness is the same rhetoric that once propelled him so far forward. Facing issues that could not be turned into simple good versus evil choices — the disaster of Hurricane Katrina, his plans for Social Security "reform," and, most ironic, the failed Dubai ports deal — Bush faltered and fell. Now, Greenwald argues, Bush is trapped by his own choices, unable to break out of the mold that once served him so well, and indifferent to the consequences.
A Tragic Legacy is the first true character study of one of the most controversial men ever to hold the office of president. Enlightening, powerful, and eye-opening, this is an in-depth look at the man whose incapability and cowboy logic have left America at risk.
"This is the best book about the worst president. Glenn Greenwald is to this administration as they've been to the country: devastating. This is more than a book: It's an act of patriotism." Alan Colmes, "Hannity & Colmes," Fox News
"Glenn Greenwald's excoriating analysis of the Bush presidency goes much deeper than mere polemics. His layered interpretation of the Manichean mentality that defines the Bush White House describes a disastrously inappropriate mindset for a modern power in a time of global turmoil. This early portrait of the Bush presidency and the right wingers who cheered it on will be read and appreciated for many years to come." Scott McConnell, editor of The American Conservative
"Glenn Greenwald has emerged as one of the nation's most incisive and articulate exponents of the critique of the Bush Administration. In admirably clear prose and with the ferocity of a former litigator, he is day in and day out building a powerful case against an undeniably consequential and radical presidency." Dan Froomkin, WashingtonPost.com White House Watch columnist
"In the bare-knuckle cacophony of the blogosphere Glenn Greenwald has been a beacon of clarity chronicling President Bush's unfolding war on the rule of law. No one is better placed to explain how the president's embrace of extremism in the battle against extremism has put the country's most sacred ideals, even the country itself, under the gravest threat." Josh Marshall, editor of Talking Points Memo

DURANGO- exploring the tighter trails
Do you like the tighter trails with no room for error? This thread is for you! :deal
Do you like rides with water falls and fresh mountain streams? I found that too!
Do you enjoy adult beverages after successfully landing a 30 foot gap jump? We do! :freaky
My buddy Mike and I were set to meet Jim in the mountains around Durango, CO for three days of riding trails. Here is a teaser video to set the mood:

Jim took us on some great trails and many of them were between 8-10k feet in the San Juan Mtn range.
Mike was stoked to be riding in the mtns and have views of Vallecito Lake in the background:
The trails were narrow and required lots of focus as Mike demonstrates here:
SW Colorado has been getting good rain lately and a few muddy spots formed giving the Honda some trouble::lol3
On our 2nd Day we rode Hermosa Creek. It drizzled all morning which kept the hikers and mt. bikers off the trail. We hit the trail just as the rain stopped and I was quickly reminded that the roots can be very slippery! I took a nice crash 5 minutes into the ride and luckily the GoPro Hero2 was rolling:

Hermosa is a beautiful trail that has pretty much everything you could want! :D
Nice spot for lunch, eh?
We rode out and back on Hermosa, about 45 miles total. We also checked out some other trails that branched off including Dutch Creek, Jones, and South Fork. Wish we had more time and daylight to explore all the of them. Maybe next time...
Day 3 our ride leader Jim took us on some local only trails near his home. Did I mention his home is awesome? Located up in a canyon surrounded by trees and water, we had trails to ride out the back door. I was in hog heaven:
My new best friend on the left:
Jim jumping off into the Colorado air:
Some of the DH MTB trail was wild. We encountered a few steep spots going up!
This is called a 'tree transition'. A nice 50 foot of chainsaw work on this tree:
The tree ends 5 ft above the ground and then you jump off and turn down this log ramp. (we chickened out) :lol3
We only rode 25 miles but the trail was exhausting and needless to say we Flatlanders had to take a few breaks along the way:
The wildlife on the trail also thought we were crazy:
Here is some video from the technical DH trail, we enjoyed hitting the jumps, ladder crossings, and winding through tight trees:

Singletrack Stoke? Yes Please!
found this cool slug/snail on the trail. Not sure what kind it is...but it reminded me of the metal melisha helmet...lol
Our last night we took a hike up stream from Jim's house and was amazed at the views and rocky canyons. I guess this is a kayaker's paradise in the Spring (extreme white water kayaker!):
Hiking along a narrow cliff 300 feet above the water:
Mike and I were all excited to see a young black bear walk through the yard that evening. The locals said they see him almost every night and it was 'nuthin special'. lol
Amazing sunset over the mtns just as a small rainstorm hit:
Needless to say....I can't wait to come back and visit!
Looks like a great area to ride. A group I ride with gets together every year, we have met up in Idaho and two different places in Colorado, but never around Durango. Need to check that out. Are there enough trails there to keep a group busy for 3-4 days?
Durango! One of my favorite spots on earth.
Great stuff and nice videos! Looks really lush.
Is that riding area closer to Durango or Silverton? Is there a fair amount of those types of trails between 550 and 145?
PS, wonder why you turned back on Hermosa Trail? The trail goes all the way through to Hermosa Park and comes out at Purgatory Ski Area, have done it several times on various bikes, last time was solo on an XR500. Perhaps it was the pavement getting back to Durango?
They allow moto bikes on the downhill trails?
Great report gents, really loved the video's!
Thanks for the great report Chad. I don't think I'm going to make it up to CO this year so pictures and video will have to do. Nice work!
Way to Go
Wow that looked awesome. Video looked great, but I could only watch so much. Personally the CRF is music to my ears - Styx isn't (anymore). So I'm guessing you had to gear down significantly? That looks like the kind of riding most of us only dream about. I've done the Durango/Silverton train. Are you in that general area?
Thanks for sharing.
RZ Rob
Ive camped at the top of the Hermosa Creek trail then rode down it on my mt bike,long,long fun downhill with some carrying of the bike through icy mountain streams. Really,Really fun!!!!!!! Also theres a great Ice Cream place in Durango,home made on the spot I believe,excellent! Ive ridden the motorcicle out of Steamboat Springs, some great singletrack that goes on and on.

In the recent quarterly results of Coach (COH), its North American region witnessed 1% decline in direct sales coupled with 6.8% year-over-year decline in comparable store sales. This decline in comparable stores is Coach's worst performance in the past 17 quarters.
Coach expects that its North American sales will drop by high single digits for the rest of the year. Increased competition is the primary reason for declining traffic in Coach's stores in North America. Although, the company is looking to expand its men's business to counter the declining sales, but, the big question is -- Will it be enough to make a significant impact in the company's topline?
Suffering from enhanced competition
The North American sales comprise 68% of Coach's overall revenue. The company's quarterly North American sales growth year over year is given below:
North American Sales ($ Million)
Year-over-year growth
Quarter ended March, 2013
Quarter ended June, 2013
Quarter ended September, 2013
At the beginning of the year, the company was witnessing favorable North American sales, but in the last quarter, it started showing negative results. Considering quarter-over-quarter growth, the sales have declined around 6.5%. Enhanced competition from new players Michael Kors (KORS) and Fifth & Pacific's (FNP) Kate Spade is the primary reason behind the problem. Both these companies witnessed continued sales gains. North American sales for Michael Kors have witnessed sales growth of 50% in every quarter since its December 2011 IPO. On the other hand, Coach's sales growth has averaged just 9% during the same period.
Michael Kors capitalized on the market's sweet spot by targeting middle income families. It continued its business by introducing lower priced products that appealed to a larger mass of customers. With this, Michael Kors' market share rose 13%, giving competition to the already established 30% market share of Coach. Additionally, Michael Kors plans to open 50 new stores in North America by 2014. These will compete with Coach's 544 stores in North America.
On the other hand, Kate Spade witnessed an increase in its market share to 4%. It increased distribution of it handbag styles, which is the highest selling product of Coach, and accounts for 60% of Coach's sales in North America. The brand is getting a huge response from its e-commerce site, which accounts for 20% of the brand's sales.
Apart from this, Coach is losing ground among young shoppers aged 20-35 years. They are shifting from Coach to Michael Kors and Kate Spade.
Still some hopes from men's business
After witnessing plummeting sales from the women's handbags segment, Coach is attracting men with its product offerings. The sales of bags and accessories intended for men increased 25% year over year. Coach hopes to generate $700 million from men's sales by the end of the present fiscal year. This will be around 14% of the overall sales generated by the company in the last fiscal year. In the last fiscal year ended in June 2013, Coach Men's business witnessed 50% growth to $600 million, which contributed 11% of the overall sales.
Coach is bullish on the prospects of the global men's business. It is focusing on leather products for men in particular, and the company's design team is building a better product line on that front. Coach recently announced it will drive its men's business with introduction of new standalone and dual-gender stores and by facilitating more space for a broad range of men's products in existing retail stores.
Coach is seeing opportunity in men's brands and it will continue introducing new products in the category. We believe Coach's rising men's business can revive its topline. Its overall contribution to the topline of coach has more than doubled from 5% in fiscal year 2011 to 11% in fiscal year 2013.
Declining EPS a concern for investors
Coach witnessed a decline in profits of around 1.5% in the quarterly earnings year over year, but the company's EPS remained the same. Its EPS trend is given below:
Dividend per share
Dividend payout ratio
Quarter ended December 2012
Quarter ended March 2013
Quarter ended June 2013
Quarter ended September 2013
From the above table, we can infer that Coach's EPS has been declining quarter over quarter. Although it didn't decline significantly in the last quarter, the company repurchased nearly 3.3 million shares, which led spending of $175 million. These repurchases form around 1.1 percent of the total outstanding shares of the company, which could have revived the EPS of the company for the quarter. Despite its declining EPS, Coach hasn't stopped paying dividends to its shareholders. Its dividend payout ratio is increasing, indicating that Coach is trying to maintain investors' faith. However, the company's cash balance has decreased by around 24.5% quarter over quarter to $854 million for the last quarter. This questions the liquidity and profitability of the company to continue the dividends.
North American sales don't promise much for Coach since intense competition is hampering its growth. On the other hand, Coach is leveraging its topline by expanding in the men's business.
Although, it is early to say that men's business can substantially benefit the company's topline. Overall, we don't see enough growth drivers for Coach in the near term. We would recommend a hold on this stock, and advise investors not to make any new position.

There was some good news for the Coyotes last night
May 23, 2012, 10:21 AM EDT
We know Coyotes fans are bummed out pretty bad about seeing their team knocked out of the playoffs in five games by the Kings, but there was some good news last night.
Round about the same time the Coyotes' season was coming to an end, the City of Glendale passed a preliminary budget approving $17 million to be set aside to pay prospective owner Greg Jamison to operate Jobing.com Arena. This is the first of three meetings the city will have discussing the budget, but this first step is an important one to show Jamison they're serious about ponying up to help keep the Coyotes in Arizona.
As you know by now, the NHL reached a tentative agreement with Jamison to buy the Coyotes but there a lot of particulars left to iron out and the lease agreement on the arena is one of the biggest. Should the final budget be approved to pay out the $17 million, the chances Jamison will wind up buying the team and keeping them in Glendale jump dramatically.
A Coyotes season ending in disappointing yet positive fashion but with optimism? That's a turn for the best.
- lewdood - May 23, 2012 at 10:50 AM
I'd say congratulations to the 6000-7500 Coyotes fans who turn out for the teams' regular season games, but this is meaningless. The arena management fee will never pass the AZ Gift Law test, and Jamison and his mystery buyers (I'm still convinced it's a Florida retirement community) will never be able to buy the team without the ridiculous subsidies they're demanding, nor would they ever want to. Why buy a team that loses money when you can buy the team and have the city guarantee to cover those losses so you can make a profit?
This is a farce, and the members of the Glendale city council who voted in favor of this in the face of a crushing budget deficit look like total buffoons.
I'm in no way conservative, and would never agree to about 99.9% of Goldwater's positions, but they're spot on with this one.
- rosselliott - May 23, 2012 at 12:01 PM
Let me guess… You're not from Arizona and really don't know our laws, or facts. I'm going to say…from Canada. Am I right? I'll be shocked if I'm not.
Here's some facts.
This management fee is not a gift. It's a fee for services. That's a fact.
This management fee is inline with what the University of Phoenix Stadium, directly across the street from Jobing.com Arena. That's a fact. It should also be noted the the Stadium has significantly fewer events take place at it each year.

In 3ds Max 2011 Essential Training, author Aaron F. Ross demonstrates how to use this top-tier application for digital content creation, widely used in diverse industries such as architecture, industrial design, motion pictures, games and virtual worlds. This course covers modeling with polygons, curves, and subdivision surfaces, defining surface properties with materials and maps, setting up cameras and lights, animating objects, and final output rendering. Exercise files accompany the course.
Moving on to adjust the level of detail for my Bevel object, I can play around with the number of segments here and increase the level of detail in the depth of the object. But I don't have any controls within the Bevel to add more segments along the outline of the text. So, what I need to do here is I need to go into the spline object and adjust its Interpolation settings. This is valid for any spline object or any shape, whether it's a circle or text or edible spline.
So in this case, I'm going to go to the Text object and you'll see I've got the Interpolation rollout open here. We've got the number of steps. What this actually translates into at the end of the day is the number of polygon edges between two points on an individual spline. So, between two points on the spline there are actually sub-segments, and this is where I get to control the number of sub-segments. So, as I increase this, you will see especially in the curved areas it's starting to give me more detail.
So, let me orbit around here, so you can see this little bit more clearly. So, fewer steps result in less detail, and a greater number of steps give me more detail. The default is 6. You'll also notice that in flat areas we're not getting any divisions. There are no sub-steps. That's because the Optimize option is enabled. So if I turn that off, then 3ds Max is not going to discard those sub-segments in this linear segment of the spline.
So, in other words, if it's off, we're going to get the number of steps that we asked for. If it's on, 3ds Max is going to throw those steps away if it detects that this is a straight line. So, if I was going to deform this, I would probably want Optimize turned off, so that I would get some detail to work with here. Additionally, you'll see there's an Adaptive option. If you turn that on, then 3ds Max takes total control over this interpolation, and it will add the number of segments that it thinks it needs. But you don't have any control over how that works.
So I don't advise it, in fact. I always prefer to have Adaptive turn off and set my number of steps manually. So, now we've got pretty decent detail on this by adjusting the Bevel parameters and also by setting the spline interpolation values in the Text object.
