What you need to know:
For all the good things the team and the offense did last year,
the attack was a bit inconsistent. However, it always came
through when it had to. The receiving corps is undergoing a
total overhaul, RB Darrell Mack is gone, and QB Brian Johnson,
the heart and soul, has to be replaced. Seven starters might be
gone, but the offense might be even more talented.
David Reed and Aiona Key lead an unproven, but ultra-athletic
receiving corps with big-time upside. RB Matt Asiata should
shine with a bigger role, and the line returns enough talent,
with three starters coming back, to be solid. But the focus will
be on the quarterback situation where Corbin Louks is a
speedster who could add more of a rushing element than Johnson
did, but JUCO transfer Terrance Cain is a good passer who'll see
time if he doesn't win the job outright.
Passing: Corbin Louks4-7, 104 yds, 0 TD, 0 INT
Rushing: Matt Asiata146 carries, 707 yds, 12 TD
Receiving: Jereme Brooks30 catches, 331 yds, 1 TD
Star of the offense: Senior OT Zane Beadles
Player who has to step up and become a star: Junior QB
Corbin Louks
Unsung star on the rise: Senior WR David Reed
Best pro prospect: Beadles
Top three all-star candidates: 1) Beadles, 2) RB Matt
Asiata, 3) OG Caleb Schlauderaff
Strength of the offense: Offensive Line, Wide Receiver
Weakness of the offense: Sure-Thing Quarterback, Wide Receiver
Projected Starter: Junior
Corbin Louks came to
Utah as a top prospect who had to wait in the wings while Brian
Johnson was finishing up his great career. The 6-0, 190-pound
junior was used here and there, seeing time in nine games last
season, and finishing with just 104 passing yards and 218 on the
ground. A tremendous runner, he adds a whole other dimension to
the attack that Johnson was able to, but he's not the same
passer. Unable to pull away in spring ball, he'll have to show
something special to take the job by the horns this fall. If
nothing else, he'll play more thanks to his experience and 4.42
40 speed.Projected Top Reserves:
Neck-and-neck in the race for the starting job is 5-11,
186-pound junior Terrance
Cain, a JUCO transfer who is being given every shot. The
National JUCO Offensive Player of the Year might not be all that
big, but he's a pinpoint passer having completed 68% of his
throws for 3,318 yards and 29 touchdowns for Blinn CC in Texas.
While he'll be a sharper passer than Louks, he's not the same
runner and will have to show early on that he knows the offense
to be a good decision-maker. True freshman
Jordan Wynn came to school early and threw his hat into
the ring for the starting job. He's not that big at 6-1 and 190
pounds, but he's an accurate passer, moves well, and has a big
arm. Very smart, he can handle the workload early on if needed.
Watch Out For ... Louks to hold on to the job.
While the coaching staff is saying it's a dead-even heat, Louks
knows the offense a bit better and will be the safer choice to
start. That doesn't mean Cain won't play, but Louks should be
the No. 1.Strength: The combination. Louks has
the potential to be the Mountain West's premier running
quarterback who doesn't play at Air Force. Combine his rushing
ability with the passing skills of Cain and the Utes should have
a good rotation.Weakness: A No. 1. Louks might
be a great prospect and Cain was wanted badly by Kansas State,
but neither one has turned into the sure-thing top dog. There's
no real separation between the two, and that's not really a
positive.Outlook: The Utes could replace Brian
Johnson's production, but can they do anything about the loss of
his leadership? It's one thing to take a team to 13-0, and it's
another to be able to do it with a late drive against TCU and a
light's-out first half against Alabama. Louks will be
devastating running the ball, but can he throw in a full-time
role? Cain has the JUCO experience and he played in a similar
offense over the last few years, but he's still learning on the
fly.Rating: 6.5
Running Backs
Projected Starters: Taking over the full-time
rushing job will be senior
Matt Asiata, the
team's leading rusher with 707 yards and 12 touchdowns. Always
fresh because he combined with Darrell Mack, Asiata wasn't used
as a workhorse with fewer than 20 touches in every game. Working
out of the Asiata Formation, he was able to score in eight
games, and even threw two touchdown passes, highlighted by a
three score day against Utah State. At 5-11 and 230 pounds, the
former JUCO transfer brings excellent power and surprising
quickness now that he's 100% healthy after suffering a broken
leg that cost him all of 2007.Projected Top
Reserves: Junior
Eddie Wide will be the speed back in the rotation with Asiata. While
he's a tough 5-10 and 195 pounds, he's not a big power back and
has been used sparingly as a change-of-pace option. The former
Nevada Gatorade Player of the Year ran for 183 yards in his
limited role and didn't catch a pass, but he'll be used in a
variety of ways.Ready to make some noise is redshirt
freshman Sausan Shakerin, a 6-2, 215-pound Utah Mr.
Football who has the speed and size to take over the rushing
load. Considered to be part of the attack going into last year,
he ended up redshirting with all the talent in front of him. Now
"Shak" should be a fan favorite with his mix of talents and his
tremendous upside. He'll likely be the lead back going into next
year.Watch Out For ... More of the same
from Asiata. The team has to make up for Mack's 123 carries from
somewhere, and while Asiata might get a little more work, the
running of QB Corbin Louks could pick up the slack. Asiata
should put up big numbers, pushing for 1,000 yards and over 15
scores, but he's not going to have to carry too much more of the
load.Strength: Upside. Asiata is a sure-thing
while Wide is a promising speedster. And then there's Shakerin,
the star-in-waiting who has the talent to be the best of the
bunch. Weakness: Pass catchers. The backs
weren't asked to do much in the passing game, and that was fine
with the power runners getting all the work. Now, with some
speedier options in the mix, there needs to be a conscious
effort to swing the ball to the outside.Outlook:
It'll be a different look for the running game putting more
pressure on Asiata to stay healthy and carry more of the
offense. Darrell Mack and his 541 yards are gone, but the ground
game should be even better with QB Corbin Louks running early
and often and the expected emergence of Wide and Sausan Shakerin
to make the difference. There will be a good mix of power,
speed, and quickness from the three backs in a steady rotation.
It'll be a shock if the Utes don't tear off more far more than
2,000 rushing yards. Rating: 7
Projected Starters: It's time for
Aiona Key to shine. The superstar JUCO transfer was supposed to come
in and take over a starting spot right away, but it took him a
while to get into the mix after getting to school late and he
only caught a pass for 19 yards. However, he was a tremendous
special teamer in his limited action, blocking three kicks, and
now is expected to be a big-time producer for the offense. The
6-4, 195-pound senior, and former Boise State Bronco, has
next-level athleticism, speed and leaping ability.
Looking to become the No. 1 target will be
David Reed, a 6-0,
190-pound speedster who has tremendous skills and high upside.
He'll finally get a chance to play a big role after catching 25
passes for 427 yards and six touchdowns, with four scores in the
final three games, and averaging 17.1 yards per catch on the
year. The former JUCO transfer caught 111 passes in ten games
for Pasadena City College and could become the Mountain West's
breakout star if he plays as well as expected. 5-7,
170-pound Jereme Brooks
isn't all that big, but he's a nice inside target who came
on at the end of last year and finished with 30 catches for 221
yards with a score. Extremely quick, he was also used
occasionally as a runner with 60 yards and a score on ten
carries, and he's excellent when he gets the ball on the move.
He even threw a pass for 33 yards.Redshirt freshman
Luke Matthews came up with a strong offseason
and became the top option for the No. 4 receiver job. At 6-1 and
205 pounds he's a big, tough target with phenomenal athleticism
and great weight room strength. He has all the tools and could
quickly grow into a dangerous all-around receiver.6-6,
267-pound senior Chris
Joppru had a nice season making six catches for 59 yards and
a score and served as a tremendous blocker. Mostly a scout
teamer over the first part of his career, he showed decent
upside and good potential, and now he should be used more as a
safety valve.Projected Top Reserves:
Quarterback DeVonte Christopher was the 2007 Nevada Prep
Player of the Year after throwing for 3,265 yards and 44
touchdowns. He's a fantastic all-around athlete who can do a
little of everything well, including catch the ball. At 6-1 and
190 pounds with tremendous speed, he has the potential to grow
into a game-changing receiver and will be an emergency
quarterback if everything falls apart.Senior
John Peel got a sixth
year of eligibility after making just one catch for seven yards
last year and spending his first four seasons with a back
problem along with a knee injury. An extremely promising
prospect when he came to Utah, he's simply never been healthy.
At 6-1 and 191 pounds, he has good size and good talent. He
hasn't been able to show it off.Senior
Elijah Wesson is a
good runner as well as a receiver with ten carries for 32 yards
last year. However, he didn't catch a pass after making five
grabs for 15 yards two years ago. Held in check by an ankle
problem, and a deep rotation of receivers in front of him, the
5-11, 190-pounder will work behind Jereme Brooks. 5-11,
215-pound JUCO transfer
Shaky Smithson spent last year catching 58 passes for 795
yards, and running 83 times for 348 yards, for East Los Angeles
CC. A fantastic all-around athlete and an all-star high school
quarterback and basketball player, he'll be thrown into the mix
right away playing behind David Reed.Backing up Chris
Joppru at tight end is junior Brad Clifford, a promising
6-4, 250-pound receiver who didn't do much of anything last
year, but he has the athleticism and the hands to become a
factor.Watch Out For ... Reed. All
smallish, quick Utah receivers with any semblance of talent will
be compared to Steve Smith. Reed isn't Smith, but he's a
game-breaking prospect who led the regular receivers with a
17.1-yard-per-catch average and is on the verge of stardom.
Strength: Talent. There isn't much in the way of proven
production at all four spots, and a few JUCO transfers will have
to step up and shine right away, but this year's receiving corps
has more talent than last year's. That goes for the backups,
too.Weakness: Starters. Yeah, the Utes are
loaded with talented players who should blow up with more work,
but it's going to sting at some point to lose Freddie Brown,
Bradon Godfrey, and Brent Casteel. Those three combined for 176
catches for 2,020 yards and 15 touchdowns.Outlook:
There might be major losses as the receiving corps has to be
completely overhauled, but it might be a case of going one step
back to take a giant leap forward. David Reed should be an
all-star, Key has the skills to be special, and Brooks is a
reliable short target. Consistency might be a problem, but there
will be plenty of big plays.Rating: 7.5
Projected Starters: The line gets enough
talent back to be solid, led by the star of the show at left
tackle, Zane Beadles. The 6-4, 305-pound junior could've left early for the
NFL, and likely would've been a top 100 pick, but he's back for
another season and should be on most All-America short lists.
While he's not a brick wall of a pass blocker, he's good enough
to get by and is a devastating run blocker. A star recruit when
he came to Utah, he has lived up to the hype.Working
again at right guard is
Caleb Schlauderaff, a steady producer who has gotten better
and better as his career has gone on. The 6-4, 300-pound junior
is on the verge of all-star honors and should be one of the
Mountain West's best guards over the next few years. The team's
best run blocker, he'll combine with Beadles to form a
tremendous left side.The big move of spring ball was
taking center Zane Taylor and moving him to right guard. The 6-2, 300-pound junior
earned honorable mention All-Mountain West honors in his first
season as a center, and while he's a very smart, very tough
quarterback for the offensive front, he should be better one
spot over not that he can get on the move a bit more. He started
out his career as a defensive tackle, and he has grown into a
star in a big hurry. With Taylor moving over,
Tyler Williams will
get the first look at center after seeing plenty of work last
year. The 6-1, 282-pound senior is insanely strong and more than
ready to see more time, but he'll be in a battle to keep the
gig. His claim to fame is setting the world weightlifting record
for a 13-to-15-year-old benching close to 400 pounds, and while
he's strong, he's not the all-around blocker Taylor is.
6-6, 300-pound sophomore
Tony Bergstrom was a spot starter and a key reserve last
season. While he's a true sophomore, he left for a church
mission in 2005 and will be 23 by the start of the season. He's
ready. With good size and toughness he's expected to be a rock
at right tackle, but he'll have to prove he can be consistent.
If he doesn't work out there, he's talented and versatile enough
to play just about anywhere on the line.
Projected Top Reserves:
Pushing hard for the starting center job is
Tevita Stevens, a
6-1, 280-pound redshirt freshman who would be more a part of the
hunt if it wasn't for an ankle injury. At the very least, he'll
be a big part of the rotation with good quickness and decent
strength.Former defensive tackle
Neli A'asa will
be a key part of the right guard rotation, and he could end up
starting if Zane Taylor ends up moving back to center. The 6-2,
288-pound junior is a fantastic athlete who could move to tackle
if needed, but he has to get past a knee injury that plagued him
this offseason. Pushing Bergstrom at right tackle will be
Viliamu Nau, a 6-6,
300-pound veteran who stepped in from the JUCO ranks and was a
key backup. Now he'll be a bigger part of the rotation and could
move around where needed.Watch Out For ...
Schlauderaff. He was a bit overshadowed last season and for some
reason didn't earn any all-star honors. He's too good to not get
a bigger spotlight with his dominant run blocking ability.
Strength: The left side. Beadles and Schlauderaff will
always, always come up with the block needed to get the hard
yard for a first down. They might not be the most perfect pass
protectors, but they're more than fine.Weakness:
Pass protection. It's good, not great, and it's been that
way for the last few years. Part of the issue is the offense and
the desire of Brian Johnson to try to make every big play by
waiting an extra half-tick before getting rid of the ball, but
this big group is built to power away for the ground game. It
was mediocre against anyone who could get into the backfield.
Outlook: The Utes won't have the same ridiculous
luck twice. Part of the reason the team had such a tremendous
season was due to the continuity up front with four of the five
starters going coast-to-coast and the fifth, Robert Conley,
sitting out just one game that he could've played if it was
against anyone other than Weber State. Conley is gone, along
with tackle Hensel, but there are good new starters ready to
step in. Beadles, Schlauderaff and center-turned-guard Taylor
form a great nucleus for what should be a rock-solid line.

Penultimate existence looking for a person of similar perspectives.
I am an idea driven person who values good conversations based on mutual trust and respect. When I read a novel, I tend to follow the flow of ideas rather than the names of characters. A testing of personality tells me that I am INTJ with equivocal introvertness, which means I am driven by possibilities and ideas. This tendency worsened when I went to a divinity school and studied theology, but I partially recovered when I went through medical school, especially the first two years when I had to perform serious memorization of details. But it never left me; I frequently relapse into thinking about the human nature especially that of value. I would love to meet someone who is pursuing a purpose driven life. She would accept the limits of being human and know that both of us are imperfect, but also savor the meaning of Grace so that we can take a grateful perspective in each day of our lives.

Funeral etiquette
Previous Forum topic
Next Forum topic
Hi folks.
Iw just wondering if there's an accepted general option when encountering a funeral cortège?? I passed one going the other way yesterday, and want sure of appropriate marks of respect. If not cycling I'd stop and remove headgear, but that's not safe on the bike, so what would/do you guys do??
When its passing the other direction, just look down at the road, as long as you don't stare, you are fine.
If you come upon on, follow it, don't pass.
If one come's upon you, get out of the way and let them pass.
If you are in the coffin, don't worry to much about it.

Slipstreaming or reaching out for a sticky bottle would be a no-no too. Think the first response pretty much covers it.
My dad wants his ashes ridden up to top of Winnat's Pass by a peleton, so slipstreaming on that occasion would be appreciated.

I will follow a cortège at a respectful distance. If there is one approaching or turning out of a side street I stop and remove my cap if safe to do so. I have, on a couple of occasions received a subtle nod of appreciation from the driver of the hearse. I think now days very few people know what to do when a cortège passes by though.

In the October/November 2010 issue of American Music Teacher, Rebecca Johnson pointed out a study done on whether female attire affects how audiences perceive females' performances. Griffiths, the author of the study, concluded (in my own blunt summary) that women who dress in sexy clothes on stage are perceived as having less musical ability than those who dress in non-sexy clothes (whether formal concert dress or informal jeans).1 There were an equal number of men and women in the audience of this study, so it can't be chalked up to male chauvinism. At first it would seem to show that women are judged unfairly based on how they dress. But I believe men would be subject to the same judgments if they showed up on stage with an outfit that is obviously designed to be "sexy."

Rated 2 out of 5 by CGCU El hotel ha perdido la comodidad que tenía No puede ser que en un hotel de 5 estrellas no haya alimentos ni bebidas en el frigobar y se tenga que llamar para comprar algo y más encima hay que acomodarse a los paquetes que venden y que no necesariamente se quieran. No puede ser que se deba pagar por todo, por ejemplo para tener acceso a WIFI siendo huesped y cancelando altos precios por la estadía, además las habitaciones con mal olor (humedad), antiguas, sin renovación.

Rated 4 out of 5 by MSS71 Nice and confortable It was a nice and comfortable experience. It seems it's a very good choice for business travel purposes. Nice room, breakfast, reception and staff. The only thing to mention and that I think is very common in the hotels is that environment initiatives are not always achieved. For example the replacement of towels or the request of not require maid. They are not huge issues but I think they can me improved. Thanks. September 20, 2013

Rated 3 out of 5 by BizTraveller2013 Great location for business travellers. This hotel is always my first choice when travelling on business to Buenos Aires.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Flyinghigh Hotel showing its age It's been over twenty years since I last visited Buenos Aires, the hotel has not changed that much in that time. The climate control in the room is erratic at best, the Internet is the speed of dial up, not broadband. Reception staff varied from Excellent to fair, it felt like they were looking to serve the next guest before finishing with the one in front of them. Warning if you use the gym or pool, you may be charged for the privilege. July 24, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by Carib4ever A one day stay I spent 1 day a the Sheraton, I requested a late check out and a crib for my son. The service was excellent, the hotel itself was great and in a beautiful location. I got my so needed late check out and a room on the 20th floor without asking for an upgrade. June 27, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by JonH Good hotel, bad breakfast I've stayed at the Sheraton Convention Centre a number of times, for conferences and business visits as well as personally. Good hotel in a great location, although it could use a remodeling. One glaring low point is the breakfast, whether in the Club Lounge, the restaurant, or even in the sister Park Tower hotel. Breakfast is not a big meal in Argentina, and I don't know whether that plays a part. But at a minimum, if you serve scrambled eggs, there is no excuse for them being lousy. These are lousy, both runny and lumpy. It isn't that hard to learn to cook them, and it isn't something that the hotel has required of its cooks. Get that fixed, and, for the money, a stay here would be just about perfect! June 24, 2013

Rated 3 out of 5 by ggge No SPG Recognition I check out on the Tuesday and check in again the following day. I have been to this hotel a couple of times in the past few months and when I checked in I was treated like a total stranger. Can't they see that I have come a couple of times? and especially that I was there for a couple of days the day before? When you turn the TV on they tell you all the wonderful things about SPG but it's not really reality in this hotel! May 15, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by JLL2013 This stay was not satisfactory This stay was not satisfactory When I arrived I have to ask for a room change as the air conditioner was making too much noise. In the new room the wireless internet connection did not work well and a router was installed in my desk. It took 30min to the guy to show up in the room to install the equipment since the moment I complain. Then, the following night, there was an issue with the electricity so I did not have air conditioner or light for about 15min, while I was having dinner in my dark room. May 15, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Worldtraveler99 Ok, but not great Staff was nice, but room was in desperate need of remodel. Carpet was so filthy and stained I couldn't walk on it with bare feet. Not up to usual Starwood standards. Got minimal bathroom supplies which did not even include wash clothes. Bare minimum they provided. Wifi was very slow and often not even enough to send email. Restaurants were expensive and food quality was poor. May 2, 2013

Rated 3 out of 5 by Jen78 Nice hotel, bad WiFi Very nice hotel, Clean large room. was there on business so important to be able to work and check my email, which was almost impossible due to a WiFi that only work very slowly if it worked at all. When complaining, I got no response, and upon check out, I still had to pay for it since they had no record of me complaining. For shame Sheraton! April 22, 2013

Top two officers leave Port Gamble tribal police
NORTH KITSAP — The top two officers in the Port Gamble S'Klallam tribal police left the force Wednesday, and a ranking officer is leading the department.
Chief Karl Gilje Sr., who led the Department of Public Safety, and Deputy Chief Larry Becker, are both no longer with the department.
On Thursday, Kelly Sullivan, executive director of the tribe, declined to comment on the nature of the separation. She said Robin Houtz, a lieutenant, will be acting director of the department. She called the separation a "management decision."
Gilje's voicemail and his webpage on the tribe's website were still active Thursday. He oversaw the department in 2009, when the tribe received about $180,000 in federal money to hire an additional officer.
Houtz had been responsible for supervising patrol officers, according to the tribe's website.
Becker joined the department in 2001 after a long career in California, and was promoted to deputy chief in 2006.
The department had 10 officers, including Gilje and Becker, according to its website.
The department's jurisdiction is about 1,700 acres of roadways and tribal lands. The tribe has 1,234 enrolled members as of September 2012.

A Luminous Future
on June 20, 2012
The whole time I was reading this book, I felt like I was part of something really special. Now that I have finished, I feel so privileged to have met these characters, if only by reading about them. They truly came alive on the pages and through the words of Mr. Flonta. I especially loved that this book is based on someone's real life who isn't famous and talking about their fame or latest drug addictions. This book is real…it's about what is really real, and what really matters. It gives a grand view of life that is so different from what we may be used to, yet we can totally relate to at the same time. I loved all the characters, but in particular, I thought Teodor's mother and father were simply amazing, and I found myself rooting for them and supporting the father from the very beginning. The stories moved me in a way that I didn't expect at all, and I'm thankful for having read this book. You should too!
When Earthlings Weep
on June 24, 2012
This book had a little bit of everything…action, drama, romance, shapeshifting, time-travel, alien-human-hybirds, you name it. The main character Mickey is having these recurring nightmares, and his girlfriend Patience is worried about him. She wants him to go to a doctor as these night terrors are really starting to affect his life. What he finds out is not only are the dreams really happening, but he isn't at all who he thought he was, and the whole world could be at risk unless he saves it. I was glued to my kindle from start to finish and was totally wrapped up in this intricate universe and layers of plots that Michael Barnett weaved. I felt like this could almost be made into a series, or at least continued on more. I wonder if there are any plans for that? Anyways, I really liked this book and think almost anyone would find something to appreciate
Margaret of the North
on Aug. 24, 2012
First and foremost, I must commend the author E Journey on writing such a beautiful and moving novel. It must have taken a long time and much effort, and it really shows in the pages of Margaret of the North. I've read too many books where it is obvious the author rushed the process or was just "winging it", and this is clearly not the case here. The narrative was tight and strong, and the plots were well thought out and artfully woven together. I am a stickler for grammar and punctuation, and was pleased at the level of editing found here that is rare to find in many Indie published books. Bravo. I do wish, however, that there could have been a bit more action and tension that would propel the reader forward. While the prose was lovely and lyrical, I felt a certain lack of urgency that made me HAVE to turn the page…I just did it because I wanted to. This is not a light or a quick read, but it is one that will consume you for days and leave you happier for having read it.

I struggled with trying to decide whether or not to give this novel 4 or 5 stars. Only rarely do I give out 5, but this book won out eventually simply for the fact that I couldn't put it down and read it in one night (pretty rare), and also because I haven't stopped thinking about it since! It is memorable and haunting, with some of the best characters I've come across in a long time. But it was the scenery and the way that Steven Montano created the world-building as the setting that has really stuck in my head. The imagery was so descriptive and real-feeling…I got the goosebumps more than once and had to keep reminding myself it was just a book! It felt like I was watching a movie at times, and the writing was better than most I've seen in this genre. It was almost literary, but still easy to read. Cannot recommend this book highly enough and can't wait to get my hands on the next one.
Angels Gate
on Sep. 17, 2012
I don't give out five stars very often and I wavered a bit on this one because I felt there were definitely some parts that dragged and didn't feel necessary. However, at the end of the day I have to give it the highest praise (5 stars), because this is one of the best stories I've read all year (and I read a LOT!) The level of intimate details, the wide –ranging plotline, the building suspense and tension, and the overall authentic, gritty feel of the portrayal of the drug life was downright impressive. Mr. Rafkin and Mr. Pagano did a great jobt of making the reader feel like we are inside the novel at all times, not at arm's length with the details being "told" to us. And the whole time I was reading it I was wondering if it was "really" true, but I want to believe that it is. But the fact of the matter is this was an engrossing read that was excellently written and kept me entertained for hours, and I will definitely be telling my friends about it. So it doesn't get much better than that in my opinion.
Sugar and Spice: A Karma Café Novella
on Jan. 26, 2013
Sugar and Spice was a bit too predictable for my tastes. Not that there is anything inherently wrong with being predictable on some level, in fact many readers take a great deal of comfort in it, and to some extent they expect it. But to me I felt like I was reading something I'd read before, and the most interesting parts that could have made the story more unique were kept to a minimum. Personally, I like my stories to take some unexpected risks somewhere to catch me off guard or surprise me even a little bit on some level, and unfortunately this story don't have any of that which for me is necessary to make it stand out from a crowded crowd. It's not bad, but not mind-blowing. A safe, predictable romance that will appeal to those types of readers.
Return of the Crown
on Jan. 26, 2013
Although this book moved along at a slower pace than what I am used to, I felt the message of the book was good. The writing was good enough to keep me involved and turning the pages, but I could put it down. The other reviews give some synopsis detail so I won't repeat. Let me just say that I liked the way the author depicted characters dealing with choices and situations. The writing style switched from different characters point of view which added to the depth of the book. I think if it had been written from just one point of view, I wouldn't have been as good. Overall, I like the book and liked the enchanted landscape the author created.
Many Many Many Gods of Hinduism
on Dec. 22, 2013
This was a great book with excellent information. I would have liked to see some footnotes with links to source material for some of the facts and statistics, even though I could probably double check the info myself, it seems in a book like this it would be standard. Apart from the information Swami Achuthananda is imparting on readers about Hinduism and India, he also doesn't hold back his feelings, whether it be about Americans approach to the accents, or other authors' approach to teaching/studying Hinduism. The best word I can think of is at times "caustic" and I didn't really like it. But that was only in a few places and on the whole I'd say this was an excellent book, one that would fit nicely into almost any bookshelf in America or elsewhere. Obviously the author is a skilled writer and thinker and if he writes more in the future I'd be very interested in reading it.
The Sense of Touch
on Aug. 02, 2014
I read a lot. I mean A LOT! I read all kinds of books and from all sorts of different authors, from big traditionally published, down to the indie author with one book under his or her belt. But I have to say that it is really rare to come across someone with such natural raw talent at Ron Parsons, and I'm not just saying that. He is the kind of author that you either have it or you don't… it can't be taught, or even learned. It's instinctive and strong and his word choice is near perfection. It makes all the difference between creating something average and forgettable, versus creating a memorable, moving piece of art, which is what he did here. I really hope he writes more of these in the future and soon!
on Nov. 22, 2014
I have mixed feelings of "Thadius" by Lawrence BoarerPitchford. On one hand the premise is very interesting and captivating, as is the setting and the characters. The author clearly knows his business when writing historical fiction in terms of voice and detailing. On the other hand, I felt that for much of it, the tension just wasn't there that I'd need to thrust the story forward, at least not until way later in the book. There were several scenes and conversations where while nice to read, really didn't add to the plot, so it just sort of weighed it down and slowed the momentum. In another genre (say, straight literary historical fiction), this would not be a problem at all, but in a thriller/mystery/suspense, there needs to be more of a compelling thrust throughout. Overall a decent novel that could use some tweaks, but the story is a good one indeed. I'd be interested in reading more from this author in the future.
Planet Woman
on June 12, 2015
Planet Woman by Judith Rook is by far one of the most original, well-crafted, and best-written novels I've read in a long time! I was completely drawn in from the get-go, and absolutely loved the author's use of description of the World, the different scenery and locales, and her attention to detail with the characters. LOVE this concept behind this. There is something of everything… Besides the obvious science/fiction/fantasy angle… it is also part mystery, mystical, thriller, action, drama, and of course romance! Excellent editing, and I will love to read more from Ms. Rook in the future!

Originally written on Burning River Baseball | Last updated 1/17/13
Since it's such a special event, Burning River Baseball will be covering the World Baseball Classic, especially following team USA as they look to win the tournament for the first time ever. We will also play particular interest in those players who are currently with (or have been with) the Cleveland Indians. In the qualifying rounds, the Indians had a lot of players who deserve one last mention even though their teams have been eliminated. Eric Berger played the ace for team Israel against Kieran Lovegrove and South Africa. In the European qualifier Martin Cervenka made the roster as a reserve catcher for the Czech Republic. Finally, in the South American qualifier, Paolo Espino and Giovanny Urshela starred for Panama and Colombia respectively. Yan Gomes was a huge part of the Brazilian qualifying team, but will not be playing in the big tournament as he pushes to win the back-up catcher role on the Indians in Spring Training. On to those actually in the tournament, Puerto...

I've attended a couple of WC xc races and noticed the wide use of eggbeater pedals by what seems like the majority of the pro's. What would be the reasons behind this? I understand weight is an issue plus sponsership to a degree but I have read many indifferent reports about these pedals and wonder why they are prepared to risk potential problems etc for just over 100 -150 grams.

[events label=mlb]
The Oakland Athletics have committed to rebuilding their team and the process has begun. Let's face it, the A's are going to have a hard time in the American League West. They know it and we know it. So if you're an Athletics fans you might as well buckle up for the long haul. The situation may not be to the liking of the average baseball fan, who wants to win and win now, but if you're a baseball purist and you enjoy the whole process of putting a team together, then this is your bag.
The Oakland A's are spinning off proven talent and reaching for future stars. Gone are Trevor Cahill, Gio Gonzales, and Andrew Bailey. Billy Beane, who's managed to piece together a fiverse group with particular talents in the past, now faces the biggest challenge of his life.
So it came as somewhat of a surprise when Manny Ramirez showed up at the A's training camp the other day to take another crack at Major league Baseball. He still faces a 50-game suspension and his contract is way on the low scale but Ramirez seems committed to proving he can come back from personal problems and add value to an MLB roster. And the odds are good that he can. He'll have to begin in the minors and work his way up, but Ramirez says he's dedicated himself to the process. He's manned up to past mistakes and that's the only way to start. We'll see what happens with the great Manny Ramirez experiment in the coming weeks.

There are better alternatives
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I bought this in Carbon copy as a rain jacket to wear around town. The fabric is soft and nice, the lenght and hood is nice. What I don't like is the baggy shape. I find Norr�na jackets to have a much better fit than the Sabre SV. I have not used it for skiing, but the powder skirt does not seem to be as good as Peak Performance or Norr�na. I also find it to lack pockets, but the under arm vents are good.
Stephen M. Bennett
Probably shouldn't have purchased this as a rain jacket....
I'd have to agree with Stephen. The entire purpose of the baggy/loose fit of this jacket is for layering when ski/snowboarding. There may not be a lot of pockets, but the ones that are there are big and useful for storing away extra layers/gloves etc. I do agree that there are better alternatives, but only for the purpose you intended to use this piece of equipment, because for its intended use, it's quite brilliant.
