Former Brown Leroy Hoard is one of many former NFL players suffering from the punishment his body took during his ten years in the league. Hoard suffers from memory loss and depression. In a recent interview with ESPN's outside the lines, he admits he isn't sure why he is any different from the players like Junior Seau who took their own life. Hoard admits to sitting alone in the bathroom with the door closed and lights off in order to escape from all noise, light and interaction that gives him terrible headaches. Sometimes he sits there for 3 hours at a time. When asked how he was feeling right there in the interview, a red eyed Hoard answered- "My legs are both numb. I can't feel my toes. I can't feel this arm, and I'm getting a headache from these damn lights. Other than that, I feel great. (Sarcasm.)" The video is a must watch. In the video Hoard, a Wolverine, admits that there are two good friends that help keep him going. Ironically, they are former Buckeye running backs Robert Smith and Keith Byars. Leroy's wife Melanie laments the day when she "transitions from wife to caregiver". Which she fears is coming sooner than later.

What's so good?
By sweeney kovar | Nov 17, 2012 | Total plays: 6,977
For his latest full-length project, Guilty teams up with Apollo Brown, a fellow Detroit musician. Their album Dice Game is grimey without reeking of the early 90s.
Here's what the label, Mello Music Group, has to say about the leak, "Reputation":
"In a city in depression, rife with corruption and crime, many people have found an outlet in music. Amidst a scene that has played a pivotal role in modern hip-hop and electronic music, Guilty Simpson and Apollo Brown emerge, together, as the next up to bat. Dice Game, the collaborative album from the two, is Detroit through-and-through: uncompromising, gritty and soulful. Officially set to drop on November 13, today Dice Game sees an early release digitally. To celebrate the occasion, Mello Music Group let off the buckshot track "Reputation." The song has Apollo serving up a certified heater (with a sample record heads will recognize) while Guilty knocks it clean out the park. Ride through The D with the duo as they show you the city that popularized Cardi frames, Cadillacs and carjacking."

Real Analysis/Limits
|← Exercises
|Real Analysis
Recall that a function from a set X to a set Y is a mapping such that f(x) is a unique element of Y for every . In analysis, we tend to talk about functions from subsets to .
The definition for the limit of a function is much the same as the definition for a sequence. In fact, as we will see later, it is possible to define functional limits in terms of sequential limits. For the moment, however, let us just give the definition:
Given a subset and a function , we say if
The requirement is somewhat technical. It is an expression of the idea that the behavior of a function near a point shouldn't be affected by its behavior at the point. Thus f(x) need not be defined at c to have a limit there.
This definition gives a lot of people a lot of trouble, so it is best to spend some time puzzling it out, working examples, etc. One way to conceptualize the definition is this: means that we can make f(x) as close as we like to L by making x close to c.
We can also define what it means for a function to diverge to infinity, and what it means for a function to have a limit at infinity:
- We say that if .
- We say that if
- We say that if .
- We say that if .
As an exercise, see if you can define what it means for a function to have limit as .
Sequential Limits[edit]
We might just as well have given the following definition of the limit:
Given a subset and a function , we say if such that , and
Note that the requirement corresponds with the requirement .
As an exercise to test your understanding, prove that these two definitions are equivelant. Note that taking the contrapositive gives a good criterion for determining whether or not a function diverges:
If , and , then does not exist.
We will be using this formulation extensively in the examples.
Algebraic Operations/Ordering Theorems[edit]
By applying the corresponding theorems for sequential limits, we find that functional limits are unique, that they preserve algebraic operations and ordering, and that a corresponding "Squeeze Theorem" holds. If , and , then:
- , assuming
and are non-zero.
- If , then .
- If L = 0 and h(x) is bounded, then .
We'll be giving many more examples in the section on continuity. Unfortunately, it is hard to properly define many of the most elementary functions without appealing to derivatives, integrals, and power series, so many of the examples here may seem a bit contrived. We'll start with a relatively nice function and move on to some nastier, unintuitive ones, with the goal being some kind of intuition about what can go right and wrong with limits.
- Let . Then .
- Let . Then does not exist.
Consider the sequences . Each converges to zero, but and , and these have different limits as . Thus the limit does not exist.
The next example is often given as a demonstration of just how nasty functions can get. It is not continuous at any point of its domain.
- Let . Then does not exist for any .
Given , let be any rational number in the interval , and let be any irrational number in the same interval ( and are gauranteed to exist by density of the rationals and irrationals). Given any and , so . However, (f(x_n)) = 1 and (f(y_n)) = 0, so their limits are 1 and 0. Since these are not equal, does not exist.
Now we finally get to a limit that actually exists. Don't get too excited, though. The function is still extremely nasty (nastier than the previous two, perhaps), and the fact that it has a limit everywhere is one of its nastier aspects.
- Let . Then for all .
The idea is to show that the denominators of the rational numbers near f(x) are arbitrarily large. Given , let , and let . This is a finite set, since the numerators and the denominators are bounded and can therefore only take on a finite number of values. Thus, let be the element of S such that is minimized, and let . Then (if x is irrational) or . Thus .
Definition on an Arbitrary Metric Space[edit]
Let , and be metric spaces. And let
The limit as approaches of is equal to if

Washington, D.C./Los Angeles -- Motion Picture Association of America, Inc. (MPPA) President and Interim CEO Bob Pisano welcomed the Department of Justice's announcement today that almost $4 million was sent to law enforcement agencies around the country to improve their ability to investigate, prosecute and prevent intellectual property infringement. This is the second year of funding by Congress and their respective Appropriations Committees, pursuant to the federal Prioritizing Resources and Organization for Intellectual Property Act (PRO-IP) enacted in 2008.
"We appreciate the Justice Department's continuing commitment to combat intellectual property infringement and its dedication to protecting the rights of American creators who contribute greatly to our nation's economic growth," Pisano said. "These generously funded grants complement ongoing efforts by Congress, most recently through the introduction of the 'Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act' and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency's 'Operation In Our Sites' initiative. The motion picture industry, along with all U.S. creative industries, leads the U.S. economy in contributing to job growth, and protecting the economic engine these industries represent from theft is critical."
The announcement of the awards was made at the opening of a one-day training summit, Real Crime - Real American Jobs: Why You Should Care about Intellectual Property Rights, for law enforcement, policy-makers and industry representatives in Pasadena, Calif. In 2008, the industry was responsible for 2.4 million jobs, over $140 billion in direct and indirect wages to American workers and $16 billion in income and sales taxes.
The grantees include:
• County of Fresno (Fresno, Calif.) ($49,992)
• Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department (Los Angeles, Calif.) ($200,000)
• County of Sacramento (Sacramento, Calif.) ($200,000)
• Miami Shores Village (Miami Shores, Fla.) ($64,885)
• Attorney General's Office, Mississippi, (Jackson, Miss.) ($166,365)
• North Carolina Department of the Secretary of State (Raleigh, N.C.) ($199,978)
• Bronx County District Attorney (Bronx, N.Y.) ($113,103)
• New York City (New York City, N.Y.) ($192,200)
• The New York County District Attorney's Office (New York City, N.Y.) ($199,800)
• Houston Police Department (Houston, Texas) ($200,000)
• City of San Antonio (San Antonio, Texas) ($200,000)
• Chesterfield County, Va. (Chesterfield, Va.) ($200,000)
• Virginia Department of State Police (Richmond, Va.) ($149,907)
Awards were also made to the City of Los Angeles Police Department, the National Crime Prevention Council, The National Association of Attorneys General and the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C).

Put the vinegar and both sugars into a non-reactive pot, place over medium heat and bring to a boil. Add the red pepper, onion, jalapeño, raisins, garlic, ginger, salt and simmer 10 minutes. Add the peach segments and simmer an additional 5-10 minutes. If the peaches are still firm allow to cook several minutes more. If you would like the syrup thicker you may also allow to cook for a minute or two to reduce liquid.
Remove from the heat and allow to cool for 15 minutes in the pot. Serve at room temperature. Transfer all excess to a clean container and refrigerate, covered, for up to one week.

Transsexual in pro event: Bagger cards 84
Updated: March 5, 2004, 4:33 AM ETAssociated Press
SYDNEY, Australia -- Mianne Bagger brought a new twist to gender blending in golf.
After a year in which seven women competed in men's tournaments, Bagger made history Thursday in the Women's Australian Open as the first transsexual to play in a pro golf tournament.
She struggled mightily on day one, though, shooting a 12-over 84 to drop 16 strokes behind the early leaders.
Bagger improved her second-round score Thursday by shooting an 8-under 80, missing the cut.

Flourless Breakfast Cookies
Whew, it's been far too long since I posted a new recipe.
Long time no talk!
Are you down for some clean eating breakfast cookies?
First of all I'd like to wish you all a very happy and healthy new year! I hope everyone enjoyed a lovely Christmas holiday. I pretty much avoided all of my social media, which was a nice break. The one thing I didn't take a break from was working out and challenging my body. I just can't say no to free endorphins. That and shovelling snow...the snow-squall machine is back in full force here in cottage country Ontario. As I sit here typing this it continues to snow outside at -21˚c. brrrrr!
Let's talk about breakfast.
Now that the holidays are over it's time to get back into the swing of things. And what better place to start than breakfast? These flourless breakfast cookies were so satisfying. Just like a real cookie except without any added sugar or flour.
These breakfast cookies are like oatmeal to-go. They're comforting and filling and perfect for healthy breakfasts on the go when you may not have much time in the morning. These are very versatile so please feel free to add whatever fruits + nuts + you like. Maybe even some dark chocolate. That would be totally acceptable.
I used a large ice cream scoop to form these cookies. They don't spread much but they're thick + hearty with lots of chewiness. These cookies are gluten free and vegan so everyone can enjoy them.
Flourless Breakfast Cookies
Cook Time: 12 minutes
Keywords: bake breakfast snack gluten-free vegan sugar-free banana cinnamon coconut oats cookie
Ingredients (12 cookies)
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 cup)
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, toasted
- 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
- 1/2 cup chopped dried fruit, nuts or dark chocolate, I used raisins
Preheat your oven to 350˚F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine the mashed bananas, cinnamon, sea salt, and toasted coconut in a large bowl and stir well. Stir in the oats + raisins until just combined.
Using an ice cream scoop, scoop the dough and firmly press it into the ice cream scoop to compress and mould the cookie, then drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 12 minutes until golden brown around the edges.
Let cool then eat. Or store in the fridge in a sealed container for easy grab + go breakfasts. The cookies will keep for up to 5 days.
The riper your banana's are, the sweeter your cookies will be. If you'd prefer your cookies to be a bit sweeter, stir in a 1/4 cup of honey or maple syrup.
Nutritional Information
Serving Size: 1 cookie Calories: 118 Fat: 5g Saturated Fat: 4g Carbohydrates: 18g Sugar: 6.6g Cholesterol: 0mg Sodium: 27mg Fiber: 3g Protein: 2g
I'll be trying out some more soft-batch oatmeal cookies/ bars for breakfasts so stay tuned for that.
Until then, happy breakfasting and keep it clean and unprocessed!
Szechuan Chicken Stir-Fry + Peaches & Cream Smoothie
How can you take a favourtie weeknight staple and turn it into something with a fresh new twist?
Easy! I'll show you how with this new recipe.
And yes... we're talking chicken today. It's one of the most common protein sources of a clean eating diet and for weight lifters alike (if you're a meat eater). It's lean and provides important proteins for muscle growth while being relativley low in caloric content when compared to others. I know it can get pretty boring eating chicken breast so often. When that happens to me I either go for a vegan option and/or come up with a new tasty way to cook chicken using fresh herbs and spices as my main source of flavour.
This is a fresh new way to take on your weeknight chicken dinner. It's got all the tasty flavours of Chinese take-out and it's way easier to make than you might think! It's also way healthier and faster!
Szechuan cusine is typically spicy and hot, however that's not always the case. This recipe has a nice zip of heat to it thanks to the chili paste and fresh ginger. You can always tone it down a notch if you'd like a little less heat. For example, instead of 2 teaspoons of chili paste you can cut that back to 1, or a 1/2 teaspoon if you really like things mild or don't like heat. Whatever you prefer!
This is such an easy and quick chicken dish to make on a weeknight.
Served overtop of a steaming hot bowl of quinoa for a complete meal. Clean eating at it's best!
Szechuan Chicken Stir-Fry
Cook Time: about 30 minutes
Keywords: stir-fry entree lunch grain-free gluten-free protein soy-free chicken quinoa bell peppers
Ingredients (serves 4)
- 1 tablespoon dark sesame oil, divided
- 1/2 cup fat-free no salt added chicken broth
- 1 tablespoons low sodium tamari (or soy sauce)
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1/2 - 2 teaspoons chili paste (such as sambal oelek)
- 2 teaspoons arrowroot powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
- 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into strips
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
- 1 cup sliced snow peas
- 1/2 cup onion, sliced vertically
- 1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
- 1 cup cooked quinoa
- 1/4 cup sliced green onions
- 1/4 cup unsalted peanut halves (optional)
Set oven to 175˚F and place 4 bowls or plates to warm.
In a small bowl, combine 2 teaspoons sesame oil, chicken broth, tamari, rice vinegar, chili paste, and arrowroot powder. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add remaining 1 teaspoon sesame oil and 1/2 tablespoon olive oil; swirl to coat the pan. Add chicken and stir-fry for 2 - 4 minutes, until no longer pink. Remove chicken from pan and set aside.
Add remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil to the pan; swirl. Add red + yellow bell peppers and next 4 ingredients (through garlic); stir-fry 3 minutes. Add broth mixture, stir, and cook 30 seconds until thick. Return chicken to the pan; cook 4 minutes or until chicken is done.
Spoon 1/2 cup cooked quinoa into each of the 4 separate warmed bowls. Divide the stir fry mix between the bowls (about 1 cup) and garnish with sliced green onions, and peanuts.Note
Feel free to cut back on the chili paste if you prefer less heat. Instead of a full 2 teaspoons try 1/2 - 1 teaspoon. You can also cut the ginger down to 1/2 tablespoon for less heat as well. Just remember if your cutting down on either ingredient that they both add to the overall flavour of the dish.
Now for that Peaches and Cream Smoothie...
I recently did another guest post for North Coast Naturals. If you haven't already checked it out be sure to do so and get the recipe for my delicious Peaches & Cream Smoothie.
Into this smoothie went:
North Coast Naturals Vanilla Iso-Protein
fresh peaches + bananas
a touch of honey for sweetness
almond milk
and coconut milk ice cubes for the most ultimate thick, creamy texture.
All topped off with toasted coconut flakes.
Soooo tropically good!!!

Rodgers, Woodley, Harbaugh worthy of awards
Their work is only half completed, yet they deserve front-runner status for this season's NFL awards. And yes, we know how everything can change in the next eight weeks.
For now, though, here's the who's who of honorees for 2011.
OFFENSIVE ROOKIE: Cam Newton, QB, Carolina.
It's hard - make that nearly impossible - to argue with this choice. From his debut right through the bye week, the top overall draft pick has surpassed early expectations. Newton has been just as dynamic and creative as he was in leading Auburn to the national championship, and he's made the Panthers relevant again even if they are 2-6. They are not an easy out for any opponent.
Runners-up: Andy Dalton, QB, Cincinnati; A.J. Green, WR, Cincinnati; Doug Baldwin, WR, Seattle; Marcus Gilbert, T, Pittsburgh; Stefan Wisniewski, G, Oakland.
DEFENSIVE ROOKIE: Aldon Smith, DE-LB, San Francisco.
Smith has been a force as a pass rusher and solid in run defense almost from the beginning of the season, and really has stepped up the last few weeks. He played end in college, but the transition to pass coverage has gone well, too; of course, it helps having star LB Patrick Willis nearby.
Oddly, Smith is not a starter yet. Still, defensive coordinator Vic Fangio estimates Smith is on the field more than he is off it.
Runners-up: Chris Conte, S, Chicago; Brooks Reed, LB, Houston; Ryan Kerrigan, LB, Washington; Von Miller, LB, Denver; Patrick Peterson, CB, Arizona.
OFFENSIVE PLAYER: Calvin Johnson, WR, Detroit.
"Megatron" to the Max best describes what Johnson has achieved in eight games: 11 TDs, joining Randy Moss as the only players since the 1970 merger with 11 TD catches in his team's first eight games. His combination of speed, size, moves and moxie make Johnson not only the most dangerous receiver in the league this year, but the most impressive offensive player. And the competition is fierce.
Johnson often draws double coverage, yet has 47 catches for 804 yards (17.1 per catch). Many of those receptions are, well, to say spectacular is an understatement.
Runners-up: Aaron Rodgers, QB, Green Bay; Adrian Peterson, RB, Minnesota; Wes Welker, WR, New England; Matt Forte, RB, Chicago; Fred Jackson, RB, Buffalo.
DEFENSIVE PLAYER: LaMarr Woodley, LB, Steelers.
Woodley is dealing with a left hamstring problem, about the only thing to slow him this season. Forget James Harrison or Troy Polamalu, Woodley has been the best and most influential player on the Steel Curtain. It's amazing how Pittsburgh always seems to find the perfect linebacker for its system.
Woodley is dynamite as a pass rusher, in coverage and, especially, against the run. He has become a leader on a defense not lacking for them, and he's only in his fifth year.
Runners-up: Jared Allen, DE, Minnesota; Darrelle Revis, CB, New York Jets; Haloti Ngata, DT, Baltimore; DeMarcus Ware, LB, Dallas; Patrick Willis, LB, San Francisco.
COMEBACK PLAYER: Steve Smith, WR, Carolina.
Nobody has been recharged more than Smith, who was expecting to ask out of Carolina after last season's two-win season. He even contemplated retirement.

Tall, funny, and weird. Animal lover. Beer nerd. Karaoke dabbler.
I'm tall, funny, and weird. Face value, 'tall' and 'funny' are good traits, but 'weird'? Bear with me - I'm the kind of weird that is a stickler for the Oxford Comma (grammar is important!) and thinks (knows) it's normal to have conversations with my cat - with me voicing the role of my cat, of course. He always has the most compelling arguments in favor of "more treats". Sports: I follow the Twins, Vikings, and United FC. Love the Wild. I enjoy watching cycling like the Tour de France and Giro D'Italia, not just for the cycling, but the awesome views of the European countryside. World Cup and Olympics of course. I am a homebrewer - I make my own beer. My friends tell me that I'm a beer nerd, but there are so many others that know so much more than I. I know a lot, but I've only scratched the surface! Favorite local breweries: Dangerous Man, Harriet, Northgate, Indeed, and Bad Weather. I love going to taprooms and talking about beer. Favorite beer style: Belgian - not sours though! Boo sour beer! Karaoke Dabbler: I've recently discovered the 1029 Bar's Karaoke.

I thought the choice of plants to vote for on the RHS site was pretty poor. I ended up voting for the rhododendron as its diminutive size made rhodos available for people with small gardens and they do look good all year round.
.This montana - http://www.clematis.hull.ac.uk/new-clemdetail.cfm?dbkey=301 will do 7 to 10 metres. So will this one - http://www.clematis.hull.ac.uk/new-clemdetail.cfm?dbkey=318 This one will only do 5 to 7 metres - http://www.clematis.hull.ac.uk/new-clemdetail.cfm?dbkey=299
All are easily available and all will grow well. I suggest you plant whichever montana you choose in the middle of the sunnier 9' of your fence and in a good deep hole enriched with plenty of garden or bought in compost. Give the new clem a good soak to wet its rootball then plant 4 to 6" deper than it was in its pots a sthis will encourage new stems to form. When planted, remove any ties and its cane and train onto your wires. It will grow into the shadier part eventually if it wants to.
Defintely not plastic net. It will sag and snap in no time. best to start with decent wires and vine eyes from the start and keep on top of tying in and pruning once it gets to the size you want so it stays looking good..
Too right. Native plants are meant for temperate conditions with wind and rain and sunshine, not dry, heated, processed air with chemicals from office furniture and technology. Also, lamp light does not equate to sunlight.
On the other hand, the usual office and house plants are often known for their ability to deal with such conditions especially if given a regular misting spray and can be used to absorb and reduce harmful chemicals in office atmospheres. That's why they're planted in offices.
Dieffenbachia, dracaena and spathyphyllum are particularly good at air cleaning.
Bark does rot down over time but then needs replacing so you have to factor that in as a continuing cost and chore. Some people also worry about the rotting of wood depleting nitrogen from the soil but I think the levels would be negligible. A far better soil improver is well rotted manure or garden compost or bought in compost.
I understood you would be planting beyond the gravelled area but if you're planning to remove all the membrane and plant that area I would just remove all the gravel and put it somewhere else. as without a membrane it will work its way into the soil and get lost and look naff then be expensive to replace.
There isn't really a short cut to good soil preparation but it does pay dividends and your plants, if well chosen, will cover the soil and supress weeds and look beautiful. You can use annuals as fillers while they get established.
As long as the gravel or bark is spread on a weed suppressant membrane neither is any good to the soil and neither will harm it. You can scrape back the gravel pebbles, flatten the membrane and repair it as needed then just put the gravel vback witha few pebbles and larger stones to break it up and add texture. I wouldn't recommend replacing the gravel with bark as it can be blwon around in strong winds, can be pecked and trewn about by birds looking for insects and also allows weeds to self sow quite easily.
For the soil you want to plant up, yes, add well rotted compost or manure, some fine grit if the soil is heavy and fork it over thoroughly removing any perennia weeds and tehir roots. Plant up and water well. Keep new plants watered till well established. Lots of plants love acidic soil and clay can be very fertile once its structure is improved with houmous and grit so you should be able to find a wide range of plants to suit.
Thanks Goldi. I've bookmarked it for later.
Nelly gets bleached pale by sunlight but keeps her colour well on a north facing wall and, like I said, is good contrasted with a darker on like Rahvarinne.
The Hull site is excellent and I use it a lot but it doesn't indicate hardiness. My local supplier here does and I now only buy those labelled hardy down to -25C which I suspect would be good in north Scotland too.
Try Blue Angel/Blekitny Aniol - http://www.clematis.hull.ac.uk/new-clemdetail.cfm?dbkey=88; Caerulea Luxurians - http://www.clematis.hull.ac.uk/new-clemdetail.cfm?dbkey=564Luxuriant ; Nelly Moser and Rahvarinne look good planted together but have to be treated as group 3s, Omoshiro http://www.clematis.hull.ac.uk/new-clemdetail.cfm?dbkey=1545
I've just bought Minuet http://www.clematis.hull.ac.uk/new-clemdetail.cfm?dbkey=577 to plant on another bit of north facing wall. Others you could look at are Etoile Violette, Little Nell and Betty Corning.
Montanas can be pruned back after flowering to keep them in bounds and encourage new flowering stems down below. They are vigorous and will always want to grow well so need decent support in the form of trellis or sturdy wires stretched taught across the fence and held in place by vine eyes.

Steep & Deep Ski Camp
For advanced through expert adult skiers
To be the best, you have to ski the best. Steep & Deep Ski Camp is for skiers who won't settle for anything less than the best: the best instruction from the best coaches; the best terrain in the lower 48; the best technique, free-flowing and graceful; the best access - the early Tram and its guarantee of first tracks; and the best camaraderie among like-minded skiers.
During this intensive camp, students learn how to safely and confidently explore the extreme terrain and snow conditions that make Jackson Hole famous. Offering the highest level of instruction, expert coaches provide tips on finding the best line, reading a slope, steep skiing etiquette, and terrain selection. Guided by instructors' knowledge of the conditions and the mountain, students ski mostly black and double black terrain. Highlights include the Hobacks, the Expert Chutes, and, on the last day, the infamous Corbet's Couloir. Groups also may head out of bounds to explore Jackson's legendary backcountry.
Camaraderie and community make this camp an amazing experience for everyone involved. And the fun continues after the lifts close; camp tuition includes aprés ski events, tech talks, and an awards dinner with prize giveaways.
"After 4 days, the terrain, the coaching, the camaraderie... everything about this camp is the Best of the Best," said David Ellerstein, a camp instructor. "Our goal is to push you hard, keep you safe, and take you to the next level. We'll sell you the seat, but you'll only need the edge."
But don't take our word for it. Read a Forbes.com article - Corbet's Couloir: America's Scariest Ski Slope - and watch a Corbet's Couloir Video. Also peruse How I Took a Leap of Faith into the Abyss - Tom Robbins, Guardian Unlimited/The Observer

Braves re-sign Freddy Garcia
Jan 24, 2014, 12:05 PM EDT
Freddy Garcia found the fountain of youth down the stretch for Atlanta, posting a 1.65 ERA in 27 innings after looking just about washed up for the Orioles and at Triple-A, and now the Braves have re-signed the 37-year-old to a minor-league deal.
Barring injuries it'll be awfully tough for Garcia to crack the Braves' rotation coming out of spring training, so he'll either fill a long-relief role or provide veteran depth to stash at Triple-A.
Overall last season he threw 80 innings with a 4.37 ERA and 46/17 K/BB ratio.
- realgone2 - Jan 24, 2014 at 12:13 PM
I like this. He was impressive against the dodgers in the NLDS. He got robbed. This is way better than signing a not even ready gavin floyd.
- ramrene - Jan 24, 2014 at 12:17 PM
>… found the fountain of youth…
Code for "taking steroids".
- nymets4ever - Jan 24, 2014 at 12:18 PM
Stat-lovers smirked at the idea of Garcia using his veteran guile and know-how to give the Braves a solid emergency start in that playoff game against the Dodgers. Well, it turns out he was more than solid…and just got re-signed.
- realgone2 - Jan 24, 2014 at 12:24 PM
I'm surprised the Mets didn't give him a try.
- fanofevilempire - Jan 24, 2014 at 2:11 PM
1.65 @ 27 innings is sexy
4.37 @ 80 innings not so sexy
- fanofevilempire - Jan 24, 2014 at 2:15 PM
not really.
1.65 @ 27 innings sexy
4.37 @ 80 innings not so sexy
- cackalackyank - Jan 24, 2014 at 12:40 PM
Interesting, obviously a lot less money, but still…Freddie's got a job, Arroyo, E. Santana, and Jiminez don't. I really figured they would get jobs as soon as Tanaka was signed. Lot's of pitchers have signed since then but 3 of the top four FA pitchers are still out there.
- sawxalicious - Jan 24, 2014 at 1:23 PM
I think Arroyo is just waiting for the right situation. Santana and Jimenez are feeling the crunch of the Qualifying Offer scarlet letter. I think the QO situation will cost them a LOT of money by the time they sign. I think the next time MLB and the MLBPA have negotiations, this will be a major issue.
- cackalackyank - Jan 24, 2014 at 1:52 PM
Agreed. The MLBPA is, I think, going to want that draft pick rule changed, if not ended outright. In a small sense it is making Free Agency not entirely "free".
- NatsLady - Jan 24, 2014 at 1:29 PM
I don't like Freddy Garcia. He pitched one great game for the Orioles before he was released. That game was against the Nats.
- sabathiawouldbegoodattheeighthtoo - Jan 24, 2014 at 1:29 PM
This guy is the most Lefty right-handed pitcher I have ever seen.
- wpjohnson - Jan 24, 2014 at 1:51 PM
He is a better risk than Gavin Floyd.
- foreverchipper10 - Jan 24, 2014 at 3:09 PM
So essentially it is Gavin Floyd and Freddy Garcia to replace Tim Hudson. That is a loss no matter how you look at it.

July 7, 2015
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - The manager of a North Texas shoe store has been slain during a robbery and police are seeking an armed suspect seen on security video.
Arlington police say the victim was gunned down Tuesday afternoon at a Red Wing Shoes store in a strip mall. Police on Wednesday released surveillance video of a person wearing a hooded sweatshirt, carrying a gun and pointing.
Sgt. Jeffrey Houston says the suspect appears to be a man but investigators are not certain.
The victim's name wasn't immediately released. The store video also shows a dog that police say belonged to the victim.
A spokesman says Minnesota-based Red Wing Shoe Company is working with law enforcement on offering a reward for information in the case.

Acting on a Dream: The Administration Speaks Out in Strong Support of the DREAM Act
This week, top Administration officials testified before the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Refugees, and Border Security and an audience of nearly 400 individuals during the first-ever Senate hearing on the recently re-introduced Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act (S. 952).
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano Education Secretary Arne Duncan, and Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness Dr. Clifford Stanley, reiterated the President's strong support of the DREAM Act and explained how the DREAM Act is good for our economy and global competiveness, our security, and nation's military readiness. That's why Congress should support and swiftly pass the DREAM Act.
Department of Education Secretary Arne Duncan:
Opening the doors of higher education to more talented youth will generate substantial additional income, and by extension, tax revenue. According to a 2010 study from the University of California, Los Angeles, the total number of students who would benefit from the DREAM Act could generate between $1.4 and $3.6 trillion dollars over their working lifetimes. Taxes paid on those earnings could result in hundreds of billions of dollars in additional tax revenue.
Passing the DREAM Act will give promising young people an opportunity to achieve the American dream. And, in the process, we will sustain our economic competitiveness into the future. I strongly urge you to enact this solid, commonsense policy. Our nation will be better for it.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano:
Over the past two years, we have focused enforcement resources on identifying criminal aliens and those who pose the greatest security threats to our communities. The DREAM Act supports these important priorities because only individuals of good moral character who have not committed any crime that would make them inadmissible to the United States would be eligible for DREAM Act relief.
Only young people who have met requirements regarding moral character and criminal records, and who are poised to contribute to our country, would be eligible. These individuals do not represent a risk to public safety or security. As the President has said, it makes no sense to be using our enforcement resources against young people who have known no other country but this one, and who have shown their desire to study and serve.
Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness Dr. Clifford Stanley:
Since the birth of our nation, non-citizens have served and continue to serve honorably in the military. Throughout past and current conflicts, those who are not yet citizens, but call the United States of America home, have answered the call to defend their adopted nation. Passage of the DREAM Act would offer eligible youth the opportunity to serve this nation and would continue this tradition, while allowing the Department to expand the market of high-quality youth to the advantage of military recruitment and readiness.
To learn more about the DREAM Act hearing and read the official testimony of all witnesses, visit the Senate Judiciary Committee's website.
