Autism is a puzzling condition in which social and communication skills are affected. An extraordinary voice has emerged to shed light on what it's like to live with autism, and how to best help individuals with this perplexing and serious disorder. Temple Grandin, a doctor of animal science, is a best selling author who also happens to be a individual with high-functioning autism. She describes living with autism as akin to being an "anthropologist on Mars". Today Grandin is a professor at Colorado State University, where she teaches courses on livestock behavior. She is noted for her groundbreaking work in the field of animal welfare, as well as for autism advocacy. Much in demand as a speaker, Temple Grandin will appear at the Future Horizons' and Sensory World's Autism/Asperger's Conference in Galveston Texas on December 17th, 2010.

CHICAGO - OCTOBER 30: Max Pacioretty #67 of the Montreal Canadiens skates the puck through the neutral zone on the offensive rush away from Patrick Kane #88 of the Chicago Blackhawks at the United Center on October 30, 2009 in Chicago, Illinois. The Blackhawks defeated the Canadiens 3-2. (Photo by Jonathan Daniel/Getty Images)
Sadly, there have been a number of low points for the Rangers this season, but to me none worse than the last time the Rangers visited their "House of Horrors" in Montreal. They were physically dominated from one end of the ice to the other and inexplicably didn't come to the aid of teammates Ryan McDonagh and Marty Biron after they were run by Montreal players during the 3-0 loss. It got so bad, Canadien players were actually laughing at the Rangers for their lack of response to Biron being bowled over at the end of the game. Meanwhile their toughness was not only question by Biron after the game but from every corner of the hockey world the rest of the week. I mean seriously, how could they not come to the defense of McDonagh after Max Pacioretty did this... ...we've all been looking for something, anything to jolt this team and I think the Rangers jumping Pacioretty off the opening face-off is it. I haven't seen this team stick up for each other once this y...

Bingaman: New Mexico Crime Victims Fund Receives Major Federal Grant
By KRWG News
New Mexico – U.S. Senator Jeff Bingaman today announced that the New Mexico New Mexico Crime Victims Reparation Commission received a $3.1 million grant from the U.S. Department of Justice. Last week, the same commission received an $866,000 grant from DOJ.
"The New Mexico Crime Victims Reparation Commission's mission is to assist New Mexicans who have incurred legal costs because they were victims of crimes," Bingaman said. "These two recent grants will help them carry out their important work."

NHL has work to do to win back fans after lockout
Pittsburgh and Buffalo are among the teams slashing prices on merchandise as a kickback to fans. The Dallas Stars and other clubs are offering free tickets to kids, hoping to expose the sport to a younger generation in the hopes of hooking them on a game that is tough to beat in person.
Winning, of course, helps.
"If you get one good Cup run and get the people in the building, then they can see what it's like to watch live and feel that buzz and that electricity in the crowd," Stars forward Brenden Morrow said. "I don't think you find it in any other sporting event. You've just got to get them in the building."
Not everyone, of course, can afford to buy a ticket and some states don't even have a team.
That's why hockey is hoping to fare better on TV, the best source of revenue in sports.
The NHL has almost bounced back from the viewership totals it had before the last lockout, which wiped out the 2004-05 season. Boston's win in Game 7 of the 2011 Stanley Cup finals drew the sport's highest rating in 37 years.
Ratings were down for last year's finals with the Los Angeles Kings and New Jersey Devils despite having two teams from large markets after the first three rounds of the playoffs attracted the largest average audience since 1997.
Restarting the season now — as the NFL is winding down, college football is done and baseball is idle — might help the NHL.
"They got rid of the right games during the lockout because there isn't as much competition compared to when they usually start seasons," Ganis said. "What will be interesting to watch is whether the lack of an uprising from fans is because they expected the lockout, or because there isn't a depth of passion for the sport in this country."
AP Sports Writers Andrew Seligman, Rusty Miller, Schuyler Dixon, Dan Gelston and Fred Goodall contributed to this report.

Mavericks turning the tables on defending NBA champs
Dallas assumes control over Lakers with a 2-0 series lead
CORPUS CHRISTI - Every season, I have to prioritize my playoff viewings. Because of the simple demands of life: work, family, immense fame, I have to pick and choose which series I'll invest in and which one(s) I'll simply skip. That means I leave myself horribly vulnerable to missing one of those "moments" that tend to occur in pretty much every playoff series. The ones where a team, or even a single player, transcend the game at hand and come to depict the game itself. For instance, Chris Paul in Games 1 and 4 of the Hornets' first round series with LA, Brandon Roy's performance against Dallas in Game 4 of their first round series, Carmelo's 42-17 line against Boston, and eighth-seeded Memphis' triumph over the top-seeded Spurs.
Those were transitory performances that were more than just experiences, they became events in themselves. It sucks to think I have to miss any of those, but every year, I do. I miss three, four, and sometimes, five of those kinds of moments because of the odd schedules I tend to be rotating in and out of. Most seasons, it's the Lakers and their inconvenient West Coast scheduling that lose my viewership until at least the Conference Finals. But with the addition of DVR this season, I haven't missed a thing, though I haven't viewed one LA playoff game live. But I still haven't missed one game, not one shot or one pass. I've seen it all. That includes the two wins that have the two-time defending champs down 0-2 heading to Dallas for what could be their final road trip of the season.
The Lakers' primary gripe isn't a mystery: Pau Gasol's performance in these playoffs has been underwhelming to say the least, with his PPG dropping from 19.6 in last season's playoffs to 13.6 this season. Field goal percentage has also taken a dive, from .539 in 2010 to .427 in 2011. The reason? Perhaps it's the mileage. After 731 regular season NBA games, 87 NBA playoff games and the fact that he's been playing pro ball since 1998 (including his years in Spain), and sometimes playing year round (Olympics), he might be breaking down a little. Couple that with his being 7-0 feet tall and 247 pounds, with all that weight and activity shifting, and it could be the start of a string of consistent lapses in play, much the way Tim Duncan started to show signs two-three seasons ago only to watch the house come completely down in the Spurs' first round exit against Memphis this season. I'm not saying Pau Gasol is done, by any means, but I think the days of him dominating for months on end are coming to a close. Same goes for Kobe, who, if it wasn't for the hero complex, would probably be showing more signs as well.
We could go on all day about the Lakers and the fact that half their roster is closer to NBA senior citizenship than their days in college, but this much we know – this team, as currently configured, cannot win an NBA championship without Phil Jackson, and might not even be able to get past Dallas with him. They'll need a serious youth infusion next season in order to keep up the title-contending pace past 2011, but age and wear isn't all that's taking LA down. The Dallas Mavericks are playing some pretty good basketball and it's exactly the kind that the Lakers hate.
Last week, I wrote about how the Spurs spent well over a decade beating the NBA's most exciting teams by allowing them to punch themselves out, much like a one-tool boxer, and then beating them up with a wave of efficiency and precision. That's how the Lakers have done it, too. Only they've had significantly more flash in their formula and have spent far more time blatantly dogging it through a game here and there in order to save themselves for the games or moments that really mattered. But the Mavs aren't playing the way most teams, including Dallas themselves, typically play the Lakers. It's no accomplishment to beat the Lakers in Game 1 of any series. That's happened quite a few times in Phil Jackson's career and it hasn't led to many series losses. But you always know when it really doesn't matter. Like, when the team celebrates a Game 1 victory like they just won the Finals, or when the team comes out in Game 2 and plays as if they think they've robbed the Lakers of their heart, only to find out that the Lakers took their heart long before Game 2 had even started. Sometimes, I think the Lakers lose Game 1s on purpose to psyche the other team out or maybe just to see how giddy they get with that one, measly victory. But Dallas isn't giddy, at least not to these eyes. When they won Game 1, they simply let the buzzer sound and went to the locker room. In Game 2, same thing. Heads down, file off the court. It has to be a little bewildering for the Lakers. They've tried everything – lost Game 1 at home, had Ron Artest deliver a clothesline to JJ Barea. They've even started to bicker a little bit in the media about trust issues. Sure, it's all probably real, but the Lakers typically feed off this kind of energy. But Dallas won't let them.
This was supposed to be an easy series for LA, mainly because of the Derek Fisher-Jason Kidd match-up. After chasing Chris Paul around the court for six games, this was supposed to be Fisher's unofficial break between Paul and Russell Westbrook, only Jason Kidd is taking it right to him like a spry mid-20's point guard, and that's causing a chasm in the defense. No one's really assisting Fisher, so he's just scoring at will, and when they do collapse on him, Dirk is wide open. It's been a game and a half of near flawless execution by Dallas and near catastrophe for the Lakers.
The Mavs aren't folding, they aren't getting excited. They're playing tough defense and they're turning the Lakers' psychological gun on the Lakers. Game 3 in Dallas will be the story of this series. Will Dallas capitalize? Will LA get back to business? Keep in mind that the Mavericks are a franchise renowned for their playoff failures and collapses and the Lakers are renowned for winning championships. Dallas held a 2-0 lead in the 2006 NBA Finals against Miami and lost. The Lakers could cruise through the next four games. They could battle back and force a Game 7, or they could just fall away. Whatever the case may be, Friday night will tell us how to progress forward in this series.
If you're a Mavs fan, I'm sure you don't need my advice, but I'll give it anyway. Remain calm; expect the worst, hope for the best. You're welcome.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Press release from CNW Group
GMP Capital Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2012 Results
Friday, August 03, 2012
GMP Capital Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2012 Results06:00 EDT Friday, August 03, 2012For further information about GMP Capital Inc., our results for second quarter 2012 and the meaning of certain references, this quarterly earnings release should be read in conjunction with our Second Quarter 2012 Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, which can be accessed on our website at gmpcapital.com and on SEDAR at sedar.com. Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars and have been taken from our Second Quarter 2012 Financial Statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").TORONTO, Aug. 3, 2012 /CNW/ - GMP Capital Inc. ("GMP") (TSX: GMP) today reported revenue of $62.7 million in second quarter 2012, representing a 7% decrease compared with the same period a year ago. GMP recorded a net loss of $0.4 million and a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $4.1 million ($0.06 net loss per basic share) in second quarter 2012 compared with net income of $5.1 million and net income attributable to common shareholders of $2.7 million ($0.04 per basic share) in second quarter 2011. This quarter's results continued to be affected by the adverse market conditions."The fragility of the capital markets environment has been exacerbated by ongoing European sovereign debt concerns and an anaemic global economic outlook. The resulting negative market sentiment has led to a significant retrenchment of risk among investors contributing to a sharp contraction in capital markets activity," said Harris Fricker, Chief Executive Officer, GMP. "Not surprisingly, the pace of client trading and equity underwriting activity has slowed considerably with the severity of this downturn. Despite the unfavourable market conditions, we are pleased with the performance of our M&A franchise, which delivered solid results this quarter, and our new high yield business which continued to gain momentum as we married our traditionally strong origination ability with a first-rate distribution network via GMP Securities, LLC." FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTSSecond Quarter 2012 versus Second Quarter 2011Net loss of $0.4 million compared with net income of $5.1 millionNet loss attributable to common shareholders of $4.1 million compared with net income attributable to common shareholders of $2.7 millionNet loss per basic share of $0.06 compared with earnings per basic share of $0.04Annualized return on common shareholders' equity ("ROE")1 was negative 6.8% compared with positive 3.7%Excluding the share-based compensation expense (the "Retention Shares") recorded in second quarter 2012 in connection with the common shares issued to certain key employees of GMP Securities, LLC ("GMP USA"), adjusted net income1 was $0.6 million, adjusted net loss per basic share1 was $0.05 and adjusted annualized ROE1 was negative 5.2%First Half 2012 versus First Half 2011Net loss of $0.2 million compared with net income of $31.3 millionNet loss attributable to common shareholders of $6.4 million compared with net income attributable to common shareholders of $25.1 millionNet loss per basic share of $0.10 compared with earnings per basic share of $0.37Annualized ROE1 was negative 5.2% compared with positive 16.6%Excluding the expense related to the Retention Shares recorded in first half 2012, adjusted net income1 was $1.8 million, adjusted net loss per basic share1 was $0.07 and adjusted annualized ROE1 was negative 3.6%Excluding costs recorded in connection with the redemption of our long term debt in first half 2011, adjusted net income1 was $35.2 million, adjusted net income per basic share1 was $0.42 and adjusted annualized ROE1 was 19.0%Commenting further, Mr. Fricker said, "In light of the prolonged downturn in the capital markets and uncertainty as to timing of sustained global economic recovery, we remain focused on preserving our considerable capital strength, closely monitoring and managing risk and limiting costs. Despite market conditions, we continue to invest in our franchise and we believe we have the people, platform and product capabilities that will allow us to excel in normalized markets."SECOND QUARTER 2012 BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTSCAPITAL MARKETSRevenue of $56.4 million, a decrease of 7% compared with second quarter 2011 primarily due to lower commission revenue reflecting lower client trading volumes and lower equity underwriting activity, particularly in the Canadian resource sectors. Partly offsetting these decreases was a year-over-year increase in advisory revenue and improved debt underwriting results as we continue to grow our fixed income franchise.Expenses of $53.4 million, an increase of 10% compared with second quarter 2011 primarily reflecting the incremental costs associated with GMP USA acquired in third quarter 2011 and our Australian operations which were launched in second quarter 2011.Income before income taxes of $3.1 million in second quarter 2012 compared with $12.1 million in second quarter 2011.GMP Securities L.P. ("GMP Securities") Highlights:ranked eighth in the dollar value of common equity underwriting transactions completed in Canada for which we were lead or co-lead;2ranked sixth in equity block trading volumes on the Toronto Stock Exchange and TSX Venture Exchange, achieving a 5.0% market share;3participated in 47 underwriting transactions completed in Canada helping raise approximately $3.7 billion on behalf of clients, leading or co-leading 10 of these transactions with an aggregate dollar value of $1.1 billion;4 andadvised on seven M&A transactions announced in Canada valued at US$1.8 billion5.WEALTH MANAGEMENTThe Wealth Management segment is comprised of GMP's non-controlling ownership interest in Richardson GMP Limited ("Richardson GMP"). Wealth Management reported a loss before income taxes of $0.7 million in second quarter 2012 compared with income before income taxes of $0.5 million in second quarter 2011. Wealth Management's second quarter 2012 results reflect lower operating performance by Richardson GMP primarily due to lower client trading volumes as a result of the continued challenging market environment. Richardson GMP Highlights (100% basis):assets under administration1 of $13.7 billion; and111 investment advisory teams strategically located in offices across Canada.ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENTSRevenue of $2.0 million, a decrease of 28% compared with second quarter 2011 due primarily to the deconsolidation of EdgeStone Capital Partners, L.P. from GMP's financial results in fourth quarter 2011;loss before income taxes of $1.2 million compared with a loss before income taxes of $1.1 million in second quarter 2011;GMP Investment Management L.P. ended the quarter with assets under management1 of $578 million; andgenerated a return of 12.0% in first half 2012 for the Canadian ABCP Fund L.P., net of management fees and other expenses.DIVIDENDSOn August 2, 2012, GMP's board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per common share and a quarterly cash dividend of $0.3438 per Cumulative 5-Year Rate Reset Preferred Share, Series B, each payable on September 30, 20126, to the respective shareholders of record at the close of business on September 10, 2012.____________________________________1 Considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure. This measure does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") under IFRS and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. This data should be read in conjunction with the "Non-GAAP Measures" section at the end of this press release and the "Presentation of Financial Information and Non-GAAP Measures" section in the second quarter 2012 Management's Discussion and Analysis.2 Source: FPinfomart as at July 9, 2012.3 Source: CanadaEquity.com as at July 9, 2012.4 Source: GMP Capital Inc. internal reports as at July 9, 2012.5 Source: Mergermarket as at July 9, 2012.6 In the event that the payment date is not a business day, such dividend shall be paid on the next succeeding day that is a business day.CONFERENCE CALLGMP executives will host a conference call and live audio webcast today at 10:00 a.m. (ET) to discuss GMP's second quarter 2012 results. Interested parties are invited to access the conference call by dialing 416-644-3415 or 1-877-974-0445 (toll free) or via live audio webcast at http://www.gmpcapital.com/investor. A recording of the conference call will be available until Friday, August 10, 2012, by dialing 416-640-1917 or 1-877-289-8525 (toll free) and entering access code 4546890#. The webcast will be archived at http://www.gmpcapital.com/investor.NON-GAAP MEASURESConsistent with GMP's management framework, management uses certain measures to assess GMP's financial performance, which are not GAAP measures under IFRS. These measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income or comparable metrics determined in accordance with IFRS as indicators of GMP's performance, liquidity, cash flows and profitability. For further information refer to the "Presentation of Financial Information and Non-GAAP Measures" section in the second quarter 2012 Management's Discussion and Analysis.The following table provides a reconciliation of GMP's reported results to its adjusted measures:($000s, except as otherwise noted) Three months endedJune 30, 2012 Six months endedJune 30, 2012 Six months endedJune 30, 2011 Reported Results (Loss) income before income taxes (809) (942) 42,415Income tax (benefit) expense (433) (777) 11,092Net (loss) income (376) (165) 31,323Net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders (4,087) (6,375) 25,120 Reported Measures Net (loss) income per common share Basic ($0.06) ($0.10) $0.37 Diluted 1 ($0.06) ($0.10) $0.33Average common equity 240,248 243,787 302,311Return on common equity 2 (6.8%) (5.2%) 16.6% Pre-tax Impact of Adjusting Items Corporate Segment Charges to Interest expense - Redemption of senior unsecured notes 3 — — 5,466Capital Markets Segment Charges to Employee compensation and benefits - Deferred share-based awards 4 1,758 3,502 —Impact of adjusting items on income before income taxes 1,758 3,502 5,466 After-Tax Impact of Adjusting Items Redemption costs associated with senior unsecured notes — — 3,908 Cost of deferred share-based awards 981 1,956 —Impact of adjusting items on: Net income 981 1,956 3,908 Net income attributable to common shareholders 981 1,956 3,908 Net income per common share: Basic $0.01 $0.03 $0.06 Diluted $0.01 $0.03 $0.05 Adjusted Results 5 Income before income taxes 949 2,560 47,881Income tax expense 344 769 12,650Net income 605 1,791 35,231Net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders (3,106) (4,419) 29,028 Adjusted Measures 5 Net (loss) income per common share Basic $(0.05) $(0.07) $0.42 Diluted ¹ $(0.05) $(0.07) $0.38Average common equity 240,738 244,764 305,242Return on common equity (5.2%) (3.6%) 19.0%1 In the case of a net loss, the effect of common share options and warrants potentially exercisable and the impact of shares pledged on share purchase loans and other common shares subject to vesting conditions under stock-based compensation programs on diluted net loss per common share will be anti-dilutive; therefore, basic and diluted net loss per common share will be the same. 2 Considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure. Return on common equity does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP under IFRS and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. This data should be read in conjunction with the "Presentation of Financial Information and Non-GAAP Measures" section in the Second Quarter 2012 Management's Discussion and Analysis. 3 Represents the impact of the one-time redemption costs (the "Redemption Costs") recorded in connection with the redemption of all of the outstanding senior unsecured notes issued by Griffiths McBurney L.P., an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of GMP. 4 Represents the share-based compensation expense recorded in connection with the common shares issued to certain key employees of GMP USA in connection with our acquisition of GMP USA in third quarter 2011. 5 Adjusted results and measures are considered to be non-GAAP financial measures. These measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP under IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The table above outlines such measures with their closest GAAP counterparts. Management believes that presenting certain results and measures on an adjusted basis which excludes the impacts of specified items may be more reflective of ongoing operating results and provides readers with an enhanced understanding of how management views GMP's core performance. Management assesses performance on both a reported and an adjusted basis and considers both bases to be useful in assessing underlying, ongoing business performance.

Bradford defender Marcel Seip has been ruled out of action for the rest of the season with a shoulder injury.
The former Plymouth man has missed the Bantams' last three matches after aggravating an old problem in the 1-0 defeat to Aldershot on March 17.
The 29-year-old is set to undergo an operation on the trouble area on Friday and will not be available to Bradford manager Phil Parkinson for the remainder of the campaign.
"What I didn't explain to the press before the (Crawley) match (on Tuesday) was that we had received the details of Marcel's scan," Parkinson told the Bantams' official website.
"Those results showed that the shoulder injury was a lot worse than we initially were led to believe.
"Basically the results of the scan means that Marcel is going to have to undergo an operation on Friday and he'll be out for the rest of the season."

Birmingham is one of the South's most misunderstood cities. A former steel and manufacturing center once known as the "Pittsburgh of the South," Birmingham is still thought by many outsiders to combine the grittiness of this legacy with some of the other more unsavory images of the old South. But the truth is far different: Birmingham has experienced a major economic turnaround, and while not quite as far along as noted Southern stars like Charlotte, Raleigh Durham and Atlanta, the area has come a long way.
The steel industry is still evident but has transitioned into higher value-add manufacturing enterprises supporting the South's growing automotive assembly industry, which surrounds the city in a few-hundred-mile radius in places like Tuscaloosa (Mercedes) Lincoln, AL (Honda), Montgomery, AL (Hyundai), and Spring Hill and Smyrna, TN (Saturn and Nissan). Beyond this industry, the economy has moved decidedly towards more new-economy enterprises in research, medicine, banking, finance, and technology. The area has become a magnet for young educated workers and their families looking for alternatives to Atlanta and other booming Southern centers. Nice older (and some newer) suburban neighborhoods have grown mainly south of the city towards Vestavia Hills and Hoover. The area scores relatively well in healthcare, arts, and the economy, and poorly in air service and climate.
Birmingham is located in a valley within a hilly area in the Appalachian foothills. Ridges rise to 600 feet above the valley floor, with a mix of open land and forest. The climate is decidedly southern, humid subtropical with a modifying influence from the Gulf of Mexico. Summers are long, hot, and humid with frequent thunderstorms. Winters are mild. Total annual rainfall is among the highest in the United States.

P-run Solo, 2012 Baja 1000
Or, El Fiasco de la Grande, as I like to call it.
This has been a few months in the making. I've had a lot of help, much of it from this community.
I have always wanted to do a Peninsula run solo, but in the past something has always come up. Be it another team needing a rider, one of my buddies putting a team together, other commitments in life outside racing, or just general laziness. Well, this year the phone didn't ring, I've got nothing going on in my life, and I committed before the laziness set in. Now it's too late.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
I really blame Frog for this mess. I was talking to him on the phone one day this spring, he was telling me that he was going to solo. No surprise the guy is an animal. A few minutes later when I hung up I realized I had just told him "yeah, good idea bro, me too!" <o:p></o:p>
It was too late to back out, to do so now would be to admit defeat, to lose face. The only sensible thing I could do now is train, spend thousands of dollars and pretend I'm excited about it all. Put on my tough guy face and my big boy pants.<o:p></o:p>
Tony my old eyes why the black text???:D Good luck man, are you running the 450 and under sportsman?
Haha, thanks Brett. Fixed, I think.
I am running Class 20 (Pro Motorcycle, Under 400cc), most likely. It's not set in stone yet, but I have some points in the class. I though I would ride a 2012 350 XC-f
To get started even considering this having enough good support was crucial. This is usually the hardest part of running a Score race. It is a big commitment for a guy who is volunteering his time and money to go down and help someone else compete.
Thanks Guys!:freaky
As of now it looks like we will have a good group going down, my buddy Monte and his son from NM were the first on board. Monte and his son Garrett have both raced in Baja (Garrett was on my team for the 500 this year and killed it, especially for an 18 y.o.). Before I even had to ask inmates Wannbeeuro and Windman were on board. Also going is another inmate although at the moment I can't remember his name. Pablo something?
Monte, Garret, on the left side of the picture, from this years 500
Really looking forward to this Tony.
Way to go :lol3... good luck. :lurk
Got in some high altitude training near Telluride this weekend.
An indication of the average grade we would be seeing.
I know it doesn't look like much but this trail was an ass kicker.
We did only about 50 miles of trail but it was a gnarly loop designed by a local maniac to do exactly what it did, beat me into the ground.
Looks like heaven there.
Now drop about 9000 feet of elevation and find some cactus and rocks, then wick that throttle up to about 90mph. Not a lot of that alpine single track stuff in Baja..:1drink
Just a bit of jealousy here looking at those wonderful San Juan vistas. All kidding aside, any amount of time you can spend in the saddle certainly helps with preparation for such an undertaking. We'll be following along with your undertaking,Good luck in Baja!!
Nice!! Team GFR !!
I'm about to fire this lump off to Thumper Racing to let Travis do his work. I should have it back on a week or so with a bigger hole in the middle.
[IMG][/IMG]
Grand fiasco Racing
I want credit for "training"!! I don't want credit if you hurt yourself between now and then...:lol3
Really looking forward to following along TG!! :clap

Ruth Stone, award-winning poet, dies in Vt. at 96
Her poems were brief, her curiosity boundless, her verse a cataloguing of what she called "that vast/confused library, the female mind." She considered the bottling of milk; her grandmother's hair, "pulled back to a bun"; the random thoughts while hanging laundry (Einstein's mustache, the eyesight of ants).
"I think my work is a natural response to my life," she once said. "What I see and feel changes like a prism, moment to moment; a poem holds and illuminates. It is a small drama. I think, too, my poems are a release, a laughing at the ridiculous and songs of mourning, celebrating marriage and loss, all the sad baggage of our lives. It is so overwhelming, so complex."
Aging and death were steady companions - confronted, lamented and sometimes kidded, like in "Storage," in which her "old" brain reminds her not to weep for what was lost: "Listen - I have it all on video/at half the price," the poet is warned.
Stone was not pious - "I am not one/who God can hope to save by dying twice" - but she worshipped the world and counted its blessings. In "Yes, Think," she imagines a caterpillar pitying its tiny place in the universe and "getting even smaller." Nature herself smiles and responds:
"You are a lovely link
in the great chain of being
Think how lucky it is to be born."
Associated Press Writer Holly Ramer in Concord, N.H., contributed to this report.

Sewer work to close part of Madison Street
Madison Street between Atkinson and Letcher will be mostly closed to traffic beginning about Monday because of sewer line work, according to the Henderson Water Utility.
HWU is paying Scott & Ritter of Bowling Green $3.57 million to build a 30-inch main from the Drury Lane wastewater plant to a new pump station at Burdette and Roosevelt streets. That will pump sewage a distance of about 3.5 miles
The contractor is currently working along Commonwealth Drive in Henderson Corporate Park, and is scheduled to cross Madison Street beginning Monday, although that work could be delayed in the event of bad weather.
The work will take place at the intersection of Shelby Street, but Madison Street will be closed for two entire blocks between Letcher and Atkinson streets. A detour is being provided on Atkinson, Young and Letcher streets.
Local traffic will be allowed, but HWU is otherwise requesting motorists to obey the "Road Closed" signs in the vicinity of the sewer line crossing.
