Honeycutt and Lashaway sounds good. what can you do for me to halp get those guys. I can only give up both 141s and my 84 and either of my hwts.
That is your line up-save Kinser . As for 141 -I only have one as I traded Accordino as part of a complex trade . I'll try to get you Lashaway from Gold if you want ? Or package your 141 with someone . I have Cleveland who placed 8th last year but he is the only one I have and he is ranked 8th in the nation . Your 184 has fallen to #15 in the nation . I have Caputo at 184 or Honeycutt -but each of them are going to walk through their conferences .
Yes -Brent Jones out of Virginia -this is the line up you have as I remember it -125 Nickerson 133 Marble beebe,141 Caramancia ,149jarequi and Chinn ,157 Winston Kinser ,and Burroughs ,165 Mueller ,174 .Lucas 184 Jones ,197 Taylor and jones -hwt Massey and dobies .That is 16 ? Let me check the Roster change thing .
Dont I have 197 jones?
Both of my 141s are crappy, need a good one.
you call DC and tell him he'd be stupid to risk everything if he isn't 100%-why wrestle ? he has 2 fish coming up -why risk aggravating his injury ? Tell him to ask his coach WHY he wants DC to wrestle ? So he won't get fired , that is why . VaTech is the ticket next year .
Nay ,
I have a few guys who might help you that i might not use -like Garnett or chris honeycutt -you know Garnett and honeycutt is #11 and 22-5 at 184 .
I don't know what to tell you or suggest you do at 197 next week-Taylor has 2 tough matches- Byers and Jones -and Jones would just have one tough match Taylor.If you want my advice on whom to draft let me know .
Roro I KNOW wrestling -this BS fantasy stuff -nada -but I wrestled in high school and college and coached for nearly 30 years -I'll bet his fag coach was saying shit like D needs to be a man and learn this and that -BS-he just wants to use DC to win matches so he can keep his punk ass job . DC needs to transfer -Rutgers is a hell of a school right down the road from you ..Cornell is too preppy maybe Maryland .That coach has DC Caramancia Hamrah and can't win .That's ate up. Or he could walk across the street to NC-the best up and coming school ? Just e-mailed their coach yesterday -VaTech -they went and hired a high school coach who knows kids and how to work with them -they could walk away with the ACC and place in the top 3 at the NCAA's with DC.
good luck finding any of these pricks to trade with you -Man -I have missed you roro-
for sure for sure Russ. I told him if he goes out to help his coach/team then he should get his A$$ whooped because he knows his body and what he can do. The coach was callin my dad askin him to talk to Darry last night. he wanted darry to wrestle bad, and the teram got smackedup pretty good anyway. Your predictions seem very accurate.
Nay, Don't let this get to D's coach but fuck the regular season -why risk getting hurt when NC State sucks as a team anyway -he should not go until he is 100% and if the coach doesn't like it -Fxx him and his mama . DC wants to be a champion -why wrestle hurt -get healthy for the ACC then the NCAA's -he has NOTHING to prove -everyone knows what time it is -DC,Bubba and Metcalf -in that order -tell him an old ex- wrestling coach said to get 100% before he takes the mat again .
Me too! I want it so bad I can taste the victory already. And when I talked to Darry his main reason for missing last nights match is ha wants to be so ready that everyone forgets the Allstar bout.
Good to hear -I hope he beats that fag from Iowa so badly . I hate Iowa .
Everything is ok, I thought he would be back, but he was not at 100% be back sat and sun.
just saying hi and checking on DC-he ok ?
good -I was worried ou were upset but I wouldn't plan on trading with someone -Zapp just nullified a trade whereI could have picked up a top 5 165 .
Russ, were cool, i cant trade right now. I will wait 1 more week then play my last 2 waivers and trade withh one of the guys not making the playoffs.
here are the top ten from Div 1-
125-Donahoe 2-Falck3-Precin 4 -Nickerson 5 -Escobedo 6-Sanders 8 -Sentes 9-Fio-10-Clark
133 1 Dennis 2-Kennedy 3 Hochsrasser 4 -Ness 5 Humphrey6 Gomez 7 Fanthorpe 8Strayer 9-Baker 10-Bell
I am just trying to prove to you that I am not trying to screw you over and that Bell is a better 33 than what you have and he will win the ACC.
If you want to try and work out a deal get in touch .
Nay , I made a bunch of trades to get Steve Bell for you but apparently you do not want the defending ACC champion -I apologize for what ever I have done to make you mad at me -I was just trying to better both our teams -good luck and i hope you make the playoffs . Russ
Glad to see you made it !!! If you still want me to try to get Steve Bell for you let me know -you probably should have kept Winston and lost Va. Jones -whatever i can do to help let me know .

University of Evansville's Pieter van Tongeren has come a long way
Aces senior finds stride
For a couple of seasons, Pieter van Tongeren was an easy scouting report for coaches around the Missouri Valley Conference.
Expect the University of Evansville center to set screens, the reports said — and expect to get a call or two for illegal variations. Tell his defender to switch off that screen to the ballhandler — because even if van Tongeren were left open, odds were he wouldn't score.
"You used to be able to help off of him without worrying about it too much," Bradley coach Jim Les said on Sunday, after his Braves' 70-67 loss to UE at Roberts Stadium. "But now, he can punish you by scoring from around the basket.
"That's a credit to him and his work ethic."
The 6-foot-10, 235-pound van Tongeren arrived in Evansville five years ago from Driehuis, The Netherlands, as the latest "project center" for the Aces, following in the large footsteps of players such as Dan Godfread and Sascha Hupmann.
He sat out a year as a redshirt and has been a starter pretty much ever since, averaging 5.7 points and 4.1 rebounds in 2007-08, 4.8 and 3.2 in 2008-09, and 3.0 and 2.2 in 2009-10. While those numbers didn't scare away opponents, they also didn't tell his whole story.
On defense, van Tongeren has never been a great shot-blocker — but he draws more charging fouls than any one on the team.
And on offense, along the baseline and out front, he uses his body to free shooters like Colt Ryan, Ned Cox and Denver Holmes.
"He does things that a lot of players definitely do not or cannot do, and things that coaches love to see," said Les. "You watch him on possession after possession and he's out there setting bone-crunching screens, time and again, making it hard on the defense."
Holmes, for one, is glad he's on the same side of those screens. "You just stay tight to his hip (running off the screen) and you get open while the other guy gets cut off," Holmes said.
"Piet does so many things every day that aren't in front of people, but mean everything to our team," said UE coach Marty Simmons. "He's so committed, so driven, all about the team."
And, in his final season, van Tongeren laughs that he's finally taking to heart his coaches' daily instructions to become a more aggressive player. It showed against Bradley, when he scored 12 points on 4-for-6 shooting and, while grabbing only two rebounds, pulled in the Braves' final miss, then converted two clinching free throws.
His hoops included a layup to open the game, right-handed jump hooks from both the left and right baselines, and a two-handed dunk that he turned into a three-point play — letting out a roar that incited both his teammates and fans.
"I just have to stay confident and stay aggressive and be productive," said van Tongeren, who this year is averaging 7.3 points and 2.5 rebounds in 18.1 minutes per game while sharing the post position with senior Clint Hopf (6.4, 3.1).
He also is shooting 65.2 percent from the field, which leads all players in the MVC, and 72.0 percent from the foul line.
Van Tongeren deflects credit for the work he's put in and the leadership he has shown, reinforcing his commitment to the team.
"The way I look at it, I'm down to only 10 games left here at UE," he said. "I don't want to have to look back later and say that I didn't give it everything I had."

ROCKFORD - A man is in the hospital after being shot in the back.
It happened at a home in the 2100 block of Martha Avenue just before 11:30pm Tuesday. Police say the victim, a 34 year-old man, got into an argument with the boyfriend of his ex-girlfriend.
After the argument ended, the victim turned to exit the home. It was at that time the suspect shot him in the back.
The victim is in serious, but stable condition. The suspected shooter ran away before police arrived.

I'd now like to share some thoughts on the topic of applying for admission. What you will quickly learn over the next few months is that, for many of the questions you are likely to raise about various aspects of the admission process, there is no single set of answers that apply for all colleges. Do colleges require personal interviews? Some do and some don't. Do colleges treat your SAT and Test results as a combined score or do they treat the subject scores separately? Some do the former, some the latter. The list of questions goes on and on.
You are likely to find these differences frustrating in at least two respects. First, (more…)

Unlike in stand up where there are far more women of color, in improv, their presence is sorely lacking.
Switzerland, meanwhile, could long be counted on to stand up for its rich expatriates in various ways.
But when the attacks against Lucas get physical, he comes to realize that he must stand up and fight to clear his name.
Old English standan (class VI strong verb; past tense stod, past participle standen), from Proto-Germanic *sta-n-d- (cf. Old Norse standa, Old Saxon and Gothic standan, Old High German stantan, Swedish stå, Dutch staan, German stehen), from PIE root *sta- "to stand" (see stet).
Sense of "to exist, be present" is attested from c.1300. Meaning "to pay for as a treat" is from 1821. Phrase stands to reason (1620) is from earlier stands (is constant) with reason. Phrase stand pat is originally from poker (1882); stand down in the military sense of "go off duty" is first recorded 1916. Standing ovation attested by 1968; standing army is from c.1600.
"pause, delay," Old English, from the root of stand (v.). Meaning "place of standing, position" is from c.1300; figurative sense is from 1590s. Sense of "action of standing or coming to a position" is attested from late 14c., especially in reference to fighting. Meaning "raised platform for a hunter or sportsman" is attested from c.1400.
Sense of "stall or booth" is first recorded c.1500. Military meaning "complete set" (of arms, colors, etc.) is from 1721, often a collective singular. Sense of "standing growth of trees" is 1868, American English. Theatrical sense of "each stop made on a performance tour" is from 1896. The word was formerly also slang for "an erection" (1867).
"courageous," 1811, originally of fist fights. To stand (someone) up "fail to keep an appointment" is attested from 1902. Stand-up comic first attested 1966.
verb phrase
To persist and endure against rigors; take it: I've had at least seven lifetimes on Seventh Avenue, mainly because I've learned to stand the gaff
[1896+; fr gaff, the steel spur attached to the leg of a fighting cock]

Hi, I'm Andy! I'm originally from Baltimore, MD. I moved to Naples for high school and ended up in Orlando for college. I just bought a house, so it looks like I'll be here a while.

I LOVE to cook and can make the BEST mashed potatoes you've ever tasted! I even do my own dishes!! I'm mainly looking for someone with a great sense of humor that I can have a great time with. Of course there's also the normal stuff that everyone wants (trust, loyalty, nice butt (jk!), blah blah blah). I'd like someone that can keep me on my toes, or at least deal with my stupid jokes.

DiscardedYKTTW Revenge of the Nerd pt 2 YKTTW Discussion
|Revenge of the Nerd pt 2
Nerd grows up and kills those who tormented them
Needs a Better Title This came from an issue I saw while Wiki Walking. Taken from the Batman Character Page for Scarecrow. Revenge of the Nerd: Took this to a murderous extreme (see Griggs and Squires incident detailed above). Taken from Revenge of the Nerd An unbelievably hot woman appears to seduce the protagonist, but ends up humiliating and rejecting him. He then finds out she is the acne-ridden wallflower he ridiculed in High School all grown up, but still bitter. If she's really pissed off, this plot can morph into Reunion Revenge. Compare Something's Different About You Now, where he hits on her... only to find out she used to be a "he". Not often seen gender-reversed, but it's not unheard of. The use for Scarecrow is clearly wrong, but I'm curious as to why we don't seem to have a trope for someone who was bullied and grows up to be a serial killer. If we do, link me the trope and I'll fix the Batman page.

Originally written on Football Nation | Last updated 2/8/13
The Colts: a former AAFC franchise running out of Baltimore that took over for the defunct Dallas Texans in 1953. In the succeeding 60 years, they have had a history with moments both iconic and iconoclastic. 1958: Beating the NY Giants 23-17 in the first overtime championship game and capturing the public's imagination.1968: Super Bowl III; Joe Namath; that guarantee.1983: John Elway - "I'd rather play baseball than play football as a Colt!"1984: Goodbye Baltimore, hello Indianapolis!2007: Peyton Manning removes a rather large Super Bowl-sized monkey from his back.Obviously, not all of these moments were historic, at least in the positive sense, but some were great. With great moments come great protagonists, so here are three players and one coach who stand head and shoulders above the rest. Apologies to all who were great, but not great enough.

Respectable Reefer
How a pulverized, liquefied, and doctor-prescribed form of marijuana could transform the drug-war landscape
WILLY NOTCUTT thinks that one of Geoffrey Guy's shrewdest moves was his choice of multiple sclerosis patients as the first population on which to test Sativex. With its myriad symptoms and variable progression, Notcutt says, MS is a very difficult disease to study. "So why use it? Nothing to do with logic. It has everything to do with politics." MS patients were already "screaming and shouting and writing about it," Notcutt told me. Using them "was opportunistic. It could have been the hemophiliacs with pain from AIDS. It could have been the gay AIDS lobby. But the perception of the young mother struck down by MS was powerful. There was no taint of any recreational use nor any prejudice over sexuality."
Whatever the spin, John Ross is glad to have his Sativex. A 66-year-old former truck driver, Ross has had multiple sclerosis for 25 years, and he lost his driver's license to it 15 years ago. Since then, it's gotten bad enough to put him in a wheelchair some of the time (including this morning), racked with pain that he likens to being plugged into a wall socket and muscle spasticity that makes it hard for him to keep his balance. But he's chipper and ramrod straight in the chair and there's a glint in his blue eyes when he tells me that since he's been on Sativex—which he, like all Notcutt's cannabis patients, calls "The Spray"—he's even gotten back onto the golf course.
Ross' story is much like the accounts of the other MS patients I encountered at Paget: a nightmare descent, as the sheaths around their nerves unraveled, into a world of pain and debilitation, frustrating attempts to find relief through various drug cocktails, and finally the suggestion, made by a doctor in Ross' case, to "get your hands on cannabis." Ross was surprised, but he dutifully rounded up some pot, rolled it with tobacco into a cigarette (the usual method of recreational users in England), and got nearly instant relief. He avoided the black market by growing his own in the little greenhouse attached to his home, but the fear of being busted was never far away. (Nor was mishap, like the time he dried his plants in the oven and his wife came home to a house full of smoke and a too happy husband.) So when his doctor referred him to Notcutt's trials, Ross was pleased to discover that the spray was not only legal and cleaner than smoking, but also just as effective as his homegrown. "I was brilliant," he says, "on 28 sprays a day." (Notcutt estimates that five or six shots of Sativex is "very roughly speaking" the equivalent of one joint.) Now he generally takes six sprays before bed, usually drinking it mixed into milk because, he says, the spray gave him mouth ulcers and it "tastes vile."
Ross says that Sativex doesn't get him high, a claim repeated by most patients I spoke to at Paget—and by medical marijuana users generally. This isn't as far-fetched as it sounds, says GW spokesman Mark Rogerson, echoing the long-accepted principle that a drug's effects depend on the mindset and environment of the user as much as on chemistry. "In general the aim of the recreational user is to achieve intoxication, while the aim of the medicinal user is to avoid it—because they want to go on with their lives." The company uses this claim to further distinguish its product from pot—GW calls intoxication a "side effect"—but in fact it is nearly impossible to disentangle cannabis' medicinal effects from its side effects. According to Notcutt, Sativex users do not avoid euphoria so much as they become experts in finding the "borderland" between disabling pain and disabling intoxication, to learn how to "go up to the point where that was enough, thank you very much. If I go much further, I start to feel kind of funny and I don't want to be there." Notcutt thinks that Sativex patients can safely find their own dose, and points out that no one has ever died from an overdose of cannabis in any form. And he's sure this method will work, in part because it's been working for years: "A group of people [can be] passing a joint around, and one will take a puff and get a bit too high and the next time pass on it. Smoking a joint in a group is a patient-controlled analgesia device."
John Ross has found that borderland, and he is pleased to be allowed to be there. (His reward for participating in clinical trials is a free supply of Sativex by prescription.) "Yesterday, I fell in my garden," he told me. "I came straight indoors and took four sprays, and I knew it would keep me calm and in control, and out of pain. And even if I did have the pain, it's easier to contend with." Ross is a satisfied customer, and he wants me to spread the word. "Anyone in the States got the MS," he says as he wheels himself out of Notcutt's office, "you tell them to get on The Spray."
AT LEAST ONE PERSON in the States would like to do exactly that. Julie Falco, a Chicagoan who has had MS for half of her 40 years, bakes an ounce of pot into a pan of brownies ("I like a little chocolate with my cannabis," she says) every 10 days or so and eats a small square every morning for pain and spasticity. She sees Sativex as "another option in the arsenal," one that can provide quicker relief than eating pot and can be used in public. But getting Sativex from Canada is not as easy as hopping on a bus and buying Prilosec. Even if she could get a prescription, U.S. Customs and Border Protection would, according to a spokesman, seize and destroy Sativex on the grounds that cannabis is illegal in this country. So Falco has applied to the FDA for permission to obtain Sativex under the Compassionate Use program, which allows patients for whom there is no other treatment to obtain drugs still considered experimental by the U.S. government. (More than 40 medical marijuana patients once got pot directly from the government under this program, but in 1992 the FDA stopped considering Compassionate Use applications for the plant.)
Even if Falco is successful, most patients will have to wait for Sativex to run the FDA's gauntlet—notoriously difficult and unpredictable even for drugs without political baggage. But there is precedent for FDA approval of cannabinoids. In 1985, the agency approved Marinol, a synthetic form of THC, as a treatment for AIDS-related wasting and chemotherapy-induced nausea, but it has proved unpopular with patients, who complain that the drug takes too long to work, which makes the dosage hard to adjust, and that it is ineffective. (Some scientists believe that pot's medicinal effects depend on the interaction among all its chemicals, not just on THC.) Drug policymakers had hoped Marinol would be "a godsend," according to Mark Kleiman, director of the Drug Pol-icy Analysis Program at UCLA's School of Public Affairs. "It wasn't any fun and made the user feel bad," Kleiman says, "so it could be approved without any fear that it would penetrate the recreational market, and then used as a club with which to beat back the advocates of whole cannabis as a medicine." Kleiman thinks that Sativex might succeed where Marinol failed, not only because evidence from GW's clinical trials might convince regulators that it works, but also because GW is poised to "persuade the drug warriors that getting Sativex approved fast is the best way to block the medical marijuana movement."
But this kind of maneuvering could have unintended consequences. "The approval of Sativex will show that the drug warriors have been lying all along about medical marijuana," says Rob Kampia, head of the Marijuana Policy Project, an organization that has spearheaded several state ballot initiatives. It will also, Kampia thinks, vastly complicate law enforcement efforts. "If Sativex is approved in the U.S., and a patient is arrested for whole marijuana and they go to court, they're now going to be able to say, 'Hey, we know that liquid marijuana has medical value as declared by the FDA, therefore I shouldn't go to prison for having nonliquid marijuana.'"
UCLA's Kleiman points out other complications for drug warriors: "If the word gets out that in fact it can be used to get high, then there might be a substantial demand for it among those who want to get stoned while remaining within the law, especially since it could be prescribed for relatively nonspecific indications such as pain and anxiety. And the one thing this is going to do for sure," he adds, "is wreck the drug-testing industry."
GW refuses to comment on these possibilities, calling drug policy "a matter for law- yers and governments." But drug-war politics matter to the company, if for no other reason than that prohibition would make Sativex the only legal cannabis in the marketplace. ("I wouldn't want to comment on that particular statement," says Rogerson.) Indeed without prohibition, GW might not have a market, which may be why, in addition to its larger population, the United States holds more appeal to the company than Canada and Europe, with their relatively lax laws.
A couple of GW hires indicate that the company is not nearly so apolitical as it claims: John Pastuovic, a campaign spokes- man for George W. Bush in 2000 who was part of an effort to derail medical marijuana legislation in Illinois earlier this year, and Andrea Barthwell, who, as a deputy drug czar from 2002 to 2004, led the campaign to brand medical marijuana as a hoax. Both can be expected to enforce message discipline. As soon as I told him I was writing about medical marijuana, Pastuovic interrupted. "Sativex is not medical marijuana," he said. "What you have out [in California], that's medical marijuana. Sativex is medi- cine." For her part, Barthwell has refused to publicly comment about her turnaround, except to say to the Los Angeles Times that "comparing crude marijuana to Sativex is like comparing a raging forest fire to the fire in your home's furnace. While both provide heat, one is out of control."
GW even offers a high-tech way to control the fire that is bound to appeal to drug warriors: the Advanced Dispensing System, a thumbprint-activated, computerized dispenser that limits the dosage to what a doctor (through a cell-phone link) authorizes, preventing Sativex from being overused for its "side effects." Rogerson says that GW can certainly make the device—originally designed for methadone users—available to the U.S. government. "We can say, 'Here is your motorcar, sir. Would you like the standard version or the armor-plated version?'" Either way, Kampia says, "Sativex fits the niche that the drug warriors have created." And they seem to agree. "It is entirely possible that there are elements of the cannabis plant that have medicinal value," says Tom Riley, spokesman for the drug czar's office, echoing an Institute of Medicine report that his office commissioned in 1999. "If such elements were developed into safe, effective medicines, they could theoretically be prescribed and distributed like all the other drugs that have dependency-producing side effects."
Sativex also fits a niche that Kampia's movement has created, if inadvertently, by seeking to legitimize pot as a medicine even as it remains otherwise illegal. In a society that relies on a profit-driven, science-based industry to supply drugs and on government regulators to approve them, a raw herb that grows like a weed and has been vilified for nearly 70 years is a tough sell as a medicine. A patented liquid that you can pick up at Walgreens along with your Prozac, on the other hand, may be precisely the formula for bringing cannabis in out of the cold, especially if it has a carefully crafted reputation as something other than pot.
It is, of course, way too early to tell, but within two days of the Canadian approval, U.S. newspapers were already reporting that Sativex consisted of a "type of cannabinoids that have been isolated and purified [to] work specifically at the targeted pain receptors," and that the drug "does not intoxicate users." That, according to Willy Notcutt, "is a load of bollocks. But why," he asked me, "correct such misapprehensions at the current time?"

For the last several months, I've been lucky to enjoy a Mamiya C330 that was loaned to me by a friend who introduced me to the joy of shooting film.
I believe that loan is coming to an end soon.
I've saved up a little money for more strobist gear, but if I'm going to be deprived of what has become my favorite camera, I'd like to fill its place rather quickly. While I do love the C330, my neck does not. I do enjoy going for long walks around downtown Raleigh so I'd appreciate something lighter.
I don't require decent built-in metering since I carry a Sekonic L358 everywhere anyway.
I do place a higher value on having good glass and reliable mechanical parts.
While my research tells me that I might be happy with a Yashica Mat 124 or 124G, I know that if I get one I'm still going to want a Rollei. I might as well just nip that in the bud and get the Rollei first and be done with it.
But there are so many options!
My working budget is total around $500. $600 max. I can get a CLA'd Rolleiflex 3.5E Type 1 in that price range. Is this likely to be my new favorite camera? Am I looking at the wrong model Rollei? Is this model known for having sharp glass? The taking lens is described as a Schneider Xenotar 75mm f3.5.
So primarily I'm interested in urban walk-about photography, as well as a fair bit of portraiture and artistic nudes. I'm set up for off-camera flash so the f/3.5 wide end isn't going to be a limiting factor for me (except on walk-abouts, I'm usually shooting between f/8 to f/13 anyway when I have my lights).

AGENDA: Last chance to register before July 8-9 show.
Details on Industry Insight.
I had an interesting talk with Fuel TV General Manager CJ Olivares last week at the network's Los Angeles offices.
CJ caught me up on what's new with the action sports network, including a new initiative to broadcast live events online in high definition. We also talked about how the network's revenue will end up at the close of the fiscal year June 30, Fuel's large increase in podcast downloads and its new deal with Dish Network.
It sounds like Fuel TV has the ability to take event webcasts to a whole new level.
CJ said because Fuel is part of the larger Fox Cable Networks, it can access technology at prices others can't.
As a result, Fuel TV has been experimenting since the first of year on broadcasting live from different events, including concerts, the Tampa Pro, Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach and the Vans Pro-tec Pool Party.
CJ said he watched the Internet broadcast of the Vans Pro-tec at home on his big screen television and the quality was "stunning."
"We can deliver an experience (online) that is equal to or better than television," he said.
Fuel is in discussions with all the major action sports events about broadcasting their contests and events online, how to collaborate on costs and "how to work out the revenue piece of it," he said.
Some of the next major events Fuel TV will broadcast on its website include the Red Bull X-Fighters motocross contest June 27 and the Maloof Money Cup July 10-11.
Potential revenue sources include selling display ads around the broadcasts and inserting commercials.
Fuel also offers more than just a view of each wave or trick, but also provides announcers, live graphics and all the other accoutrements of a live broadcast of a sporting event found on network television.
Offering this new live platform is causing Fuel to rethink what it includes in the television show that airs after the event.
The TV broadcast will show only the best waves and tell the story of the event, emphasizing the narrative arch with analysis, behind-the-scenes footage and more.
In the past two months, viewers downloaded 6 million free Fuel TV podcasts per month.
In the prior two months, 2 million were downloaded per month. A year ago, approximately 1 million podcasts were downloaded a month.
The podcasts are 2-to-4 minutes long and can include 5-to 5- second commercials.
CJ attributes the increased podcasts to many things, including new content from Camp Woodward and New Pollution that appeals to a younger demographic, the network's broadcast partnership and involvement in the Dew Tour, coverage of bands and music, and an increase in traffic at the network's website, fuel.tv.
He believes live webcasting and several grassroots marketing efforts are also increasing awareness of the network including outreach to college campuses and mountain resorts.
"I think it's a cumulative effect of layering on many things," he said.
Another piece of good news for Fuel TV comes from a new deal with the Dish Network.
The deal means Fuel TV is now available in nearly 30 million households, up from 26 million.
That of course means Fuel has a broader reach but also sees an increase in revenue from Dish subscriber fees. (Fuel gets a portion of the fees paid by Dish and cable subscribers).
The Dish arrangement became effective at the end of May.
Although the deal extends Fuel's reach to another four million households, the networks biggest challenge is still distribution, CJ says.
National companies such as McDonalds won't advertise on networks that aren't measured by Nielsen, he said. And Nielsen doesn't start measuring networks until they surpass 40 million households.
Fuel TV will be 6 years old July 1, but only began strengthening its advertising relationships with the action sports industry two years ago.
Now, many companies have advertised on the network, including Billabong, Quiksilver, Roxy, Volcom, Globe, 686, WeSC and Reef.
The biggest challenge is explaining the value proposition of advertising on Fuel TV, CJ said.
"Everyone thinks advertising on TV is expensive, but the most expensive part is developing the campaign," he said. "It's very affordable. For the cost of one print ad, you can buy a month of commercials that includes three spots a day."
Fuel is working with action sports companies to increase their media mix. CJ gives the example of a company taking team riders on a great surfing trip and bringing along a print photographer and writer.
Now, some companies are bringing videographers as well to provide content to more platforms.
"It's important to create content at every possible consumption point," he said.
Fuel TV will end the year with revenue and profits slightly ahead of last year, CJ said. Both ad revenue and affiliate revenue came in ahead of plan, he said. Like most companies, the network has moved into cost containment mode but has not had any layoffs of its 75 employees.
"Given everything else going on, we recognize and appreciate not everyone is in the same position as we are," CJ said.
Editor's note: I'll be interviewing CJ live at the Action Sports Conference being put together by group Y and ESPN at the X Games July 30. Click here for more info about the event.

I was using Sparkpeople for a bit but found that the preset nutrition info was largely for pre-packaged foods. Since I cook from scratch using whole foods I don't know that my approximations were at all accurate. Can anyone suggest an app/program that works well for whole foods cooks?

I have only this:
I'd like something a little "better" as well. No smart phone though.
And on 09/23/2011, we were three; husband, daughter, and me!
MyFitnessPal is really great and it's user-submitted recipes are usually pretty darn accurate. It's free too!

I second my fitness pal. I didn't notice this at first but there is actually a place for you to input your own recipes which is AWESOME! You just plug in the ingredients and how many servings it makes and it calculates the calories for you. It also saves the recipes which is great if you make the same thing once a week/month.
Thanks all! I'm going to check out myfitness pal---and a total side note, the bean balls from veganomicon are pretty awesome and may just be the first recipe I enter!

This post is a little bit older, but we use sparkpeople.com. We cook a lot "from scratch" and eat very little pre-packaged food, so we use the Sparkpeople recipe calculator ( http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-calculator.asp ) which is kind of amazing. You can "make over" recipes if you tweak them or use recipes other people have entered, or change the serving size if you are more/less hungry. We cook a lot from Isa's vegan cookbooks, and I have found a lot of her recipes pre-entered, even, which saves me a few minutes.
I have been wondering the same thing. That always bothered me when I used Fitday. I just measured everything and added in each individual ingredient myself which was tedious.
But, I actually caught myself saying, "Am I really hungry right now, because that's a lot of measuring and recording." lol.
