Over the next week, Pindar introduces Joe to a series of "go-givers": a restaurateur, a CEO, a financial adviser, a real-estate broker, and the "Connector", who brought them all together. Pindar's friends share with Joe the Five Laws of Stratospheric Success and teach him how to open himself up to the power of giving.
Joe learns that changing his focus from getting to giving - putting others' interests first and continually adding value to their lives - ultimately leads to unexpected returns.
Imparted with wit and grace, The Go-Giver is a heartwarming and inspiring tale that brings new relevance to the old proverb "Give and you shall receive".

"You owe it to yourself to listen to The Go-Giver and share its message with those who matter most to you. It is a beautiful audiobook that will touch your soul and inspire your heart." (David Bach, author of The Automatic Millionaire)
author of Escape 101
I've been an Audible member for a couple of years and have listened to countless self-help and business titles. This is the first time I've been really inspired to write a review.
If you like parables like The One Minute Manager or The Richest Man in Babylon, then you'll love this one. Both the story AND the message are excellent - a rare combination, I think.
I can't recommend this one enough. There's a remarkable amount of simple but profound wisdom in it, and the narrators (both authors) do a superb job. I've already started listening for a second time!
Highly recommended. Go for it.
"It will win you over!"
At first I was cynical because I'm not a huge fan of business books disguised as fairy tales. But after just about 5 seconds I was engulfed in the story and couldn't wait to get to the end. Of course, real life success doesn't come as quick or as easy as it did for Joe at the end, but you get the picture. Enjoyable, inspiring listen!
"Inspiring if you don't mind predictability"
This book fits the mold for a typical self-improvement style book. The outcomes of the very simple story line are terribly predictable and someone who finds predictability boring might possibly hate this book. I, however, found the reinforcement of a principle I greatly value to be extremely inspiring. The Go-Giver is basically an expansion on the timeless Biblical principles of Sowing and Reaping and putting others ahead of oneself. I would recommend that someone not read this book but get the outline of the principles and consider how they might apply them. I'm left feeling pleased with the read but I wouldn't recommend it.
"A timeless classic!"
This brilliant short story about Joe, the laws of success and business principles will fall into the likes of 'Think and Grow Rich'. A truly rich listen, highly recommended, especially if your business is not doing as well as you think it should be.
"One of the best business books I've ever read"
A definite audiobook for any business person. This book is in the top 5 of business books I've read (and I've read them all). This is 2 and 1/2 hours well spent.
"Great book, but needs professional readers."
I was so inspired by the hardcover edition that I wanted to enjoy "The Go-Giver" as an audiobook as well. But the two authors apparently decided that their success with the book qualified them to forego a professional narrator and just read it aloud themselves. What could possibly have accounted for this choice? Vanity? Hubris? Whatever it was, it was a bad decision.
No, they are not utterly awful, they are just ... amateurish. We Audible customers have very high standards from the professionals that perform our beloved audiobooks. This performance just doesn't measure up. I vote for a do-over with Frederick Davidson or Michael Pritchard.
As for the content ... This is the kind of book that changes lives. No kidding. As it did with Joe in the story, it has caused me to see my already successful career in an entirely new light. I have reaped some major benefits aleady.
If you can tolerate the narrators, by all means go ahead with this recording. But you can read the hardcover in an evening, and you might enjoy it more, as I did.
"Beautiful Information told in a wonderful story"
Right Up there,I love to learn through stories, the messages seem to make more sense. I was able to implement the information to my life and my business right away. I highly recommend it.
Absolutley and I did.
Thank you for reminding me that it is all about giving. I felt the instant shift in my body whilst listening to this wonderful story. Much appreciation Kym.
"Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere." - Albert Einstein
"A strong life insight in a weak story"
The book introduces a powerful and will thought set of ideas about an insight that go giverrs get more in life (which is great) into a weakly constructed story with some even "cheesy" bits and pieces.
AQHA Reiner
"Wonderful Book"
Easy to follow story.
Every time Joe got hung up in his old thinking of what's in it for me and how am I going to make my goals.
"One of the best books period!"
This book is an excellent book. It not only can help you in your business but your personal life as well. I have listened to many different books on business and implemented parts of many of them. However, none of them have quite hit me to the core like this one. This book has quickly moved it's way to becoming the cornerstone of my business. Anyone that has a service or sales business absolutly must read this book. It is not about how to get your employees to work, but when you have this at the core, other parts of your business will work better. It is amazing at how quickly doing what they say can take hold.

David Pollack(right, in shorts) with Jason Seahorn. Congratulations are in order for former Georgia Bulldog legend and ESPN analyst David Pollack, whom the WWL has tapped to replace the never-popular Craig James on its Thursday night college football broadcasts. He's described by ESPN coordinating producer Ed Placey as being "a playful antagonist," which is a pretty ambiguous description in the hands of a WWL employee. Pollack has certainly come a long way since his days as a linebacker in Athens, where he and his roommate, UGA quarterback David Greene, became arguably the most beloved players behind Hershel Walker in recent Bulldog history. His career in the NFL playing for the Cincinnati Bengals was cut short after suffering a neck injury in a game against the Cleveland Browns. (Which is enough reason for me to hope Cleveland never, EVER, Ever gets to the Super Bowl). His career in sports broadcasting began at 790 The Zone in Atlanta, and led to his current gig with ESPN in 20...

I don't understand you guys, you want something new, but you won't support it. People that try to do something new almost never get their games funded, just look at http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/forgedchaos/trials-of-ascension-a-truly-innovative-mmorpg
A lot of the things that are in that game are completely new, but only a few supports the game.
So for me it seem like this is going to be a good game for the crowd, because the crowd doesn't want something new, that kickstarter proves that.Tue Nov 05 2013 3:00PM Report

Mom Tip of the Week: Look More Awake In 60-Seconds
One of the hallmark signs of being a mother is that you often look tired. The reason: you are tired…often. Being a parent is a 24/7 job without paid vacation (though the benefits are pretty great).
Thank goodness for makeup. If I really want to look more awake I can work wonders with a full face and a handful of products, but there are some days when my main objective is basically just not to look like death warmed over and I want to achieve it in as little time as humanly possible.
This is where my super simple tutorial comes in. I'm showing you how to look more awake in just 60 seconds, using only two products. Easy peasy.
The end result won't be one you'll want to wear out to a fancy dinner or anything – you'll likely want more makeup for that – but, it will give just enough polish so you don't have to head out to the grocery store looking like a zombie mommy.

Exploration of the utility of ancestry informative markers for genetic association studies of African Americans with type 2 diabetes and end stage renal disease.
ABSTRACT Admixture and population stratification are major concerns in genetic association studies. We wished to evaluate the impact of admixture using empirically derived data from genetic association studies of African Americans (AA) with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Seventy ancestry informative markers (AIMs) were genotyped in 577 AA with T2DM–ESRD, 596 AA controls, 44 Yoruba Nigerian (YRI) and 39 European American (EA) controls. Genotypic data and association results for eight T2DM candidate gene studies in our AA population were included. Ancestral estimates were calculated using FRAPPE, ADMIXMAP and STRUCTURE for all AA samples, using varying numbers of AIMs (25, 50, and 70). Ancestry estimates varied significantly across all three programs with the highest estimates obtained using STRUCTURE, followed by ADMIXMAP; while FRAPPE estimates were the lowest. FRAPPE estimates were similar using varying numbers of AIMs, while STRUCTURE estimates using 25 AIMs differed from estimates using 50 and 70 AIMs. Female T2DM-ESRD cases showed higher mean African proportions as compared to female controls, male cases, and male controls. Age showed a weak but significant correlation with individual ancestral estimates in AA cases (r 2 = 0.101; P = 0.019) and in the combined set (r 2 = 0.131; P = 3.57 × 10−5). The absolute difference between frequencies in parental populations, absolute , was correlated with admixture impact for dominant, additive, and recessive genotypic models of association. This study presents exploratory analyses of the impact of admixture on studies of AA with T2DM-ESRD and supports the use of ancestral proportions as a means of reducing confounding effects due to admixture.

Article: Candidate genes for non-diabetic ESRD in African Americans: a genome-wide association study using pooled DNA.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: African Americans have increased susceptibility to non-diabetic (non-DM) forms of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and extensive evidence supports a genetic contribution. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) using pooled DNA was performed in 1,000 African Americans to detect associated genes. DNA from 500 non-DM ESRD cases and 500 non-nephropathy controls was quantified using gel electrophoresis and spectrophotometric analysis and pools of 50 case and 50 control DNA samples were created. DNA pools were genotyped in duplicate on the Illumina HumanHap550-Duo BeadChip. Normalization methods were developed and applied to array intensity values to reduce inter-array variance. Allele frequencies were calculated from normalized channel intensities and compared between case and control pools. Three SNPs had p values of <1.0E-6: rs4462445 (ch 13), rs4821469 (ch 22) and rs8077346 (ch 17). After normalization, top scoring SNPs (n = 65) were genotyped individually in 464 of the original cases and 478 of the controls, with replication in 336 non-DM ESRD cases and 363 non-nephropathy controls. Sixteen SNPs were associated with non-DM ESRD (p < 7.7E-4, Bonferroni corrected). Twelve of these SNPs are in or near the MYH9 gene. The four non-MYH9 SNPs that were associated with non-DM ESRD in the pooled samples were not associated in the replication set. Five SNPs that were modestly associated in the pooled samples were more strongly associated in the replication and/or combined samples. This is the first GWAS for non-DM ESRD in African Americans using pooled DNA. We demonstrate strong association between non-DM ESRD in African Americans with MYH9, and have identified additional candidate loci.Human Genetics 08/2010; 128(2):195-204.

Article: Association of adiponectin gene polymorphisms with type 2 diabetes in an African American population enriched for nephropathy.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Polymorphisms in the adiponectin gene (ADIPOQ) have been associated with type 2 diabetes and diabetic nephropathy in type 1 diabetes, in mostly European-derived populations. A comprehensive association analysis of 24 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the adiponectin gene was performed for type 2 diabetes and diabetic nephropathy in African Americans. The minor allele (A) in a single SNP in intron 1 (rs182052) was associated with diabetic nephropathy (P = 0.0015, odds ratio [OR] 1.37, CI 1.13-1.67, dominant model) in an African American sample of 851 case subjects with diabetic nephropathy and 871 nondiabetic control subjects in analyses incorporating adjustment for varying levels of racial admixture. This association remained significant after adjustment of the data for BMI, age, and sex (P = 0.0013-0.0004). We further tested this SNP for association with longstanding type 2 diabetes without nephropathy (n = 317), and evidence of association was also significant (P = 0.0054, OR 1.46, CI 1.12-1.91, dominant model) when compared with the same set of 871 nondiabetic control subjects. Combining the type 2 diabetes and diabetic nephropathy samples into a single group of case subjects (n = 1,168) resulted in the most significant evidence of association (P = 0.0003, OR 1.40, CI 1.17-1.67, dominant model). Association tests between age at onset of type 2 diabetes and the rs182052 genotypes also revealed significant association between the presence of the minor allele (A/A or A/G) and earlier onset of type 2 diabetes. The SNP rs182052 in intron 1 of the adiponectin gene is associated with type 2 diabetes in African Americans.Diabetes 01/2009; 58(2):499-504. DOI:10.2337/db08-0598 · 8.47 Impact Factor
Article: Relationship between diabetes risk and admixture in postmenopausal African-American and Hispanic-American women[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Type 2 diabetes is more prevalent in African-Americans (AFAs) and Hispanic-Americans (HAs) than in European-Americans. We assessed whether continental admixture was correlated with diabetes risk in these high-risk groups. We estimated the proportion of sub-Saharan African (AFR), Amerindian (AMI) and European admixture using 92 ancestry-informative marker genotypes in 16,476 AFA and HA women from the Women's Health Initiative. Cox regression models were used to examine the association between admixture and diabetes risk, with and without accounting for socioeconomic status (SES) and adiposity measurements. AFR admixture was significantly associated with diabetes risk in AFA women when adjusting for entry age, neighbourhood SES and BMI or waist/hip ratio (WHR) (all p < 0.0001). In HA women, AMI admixture had significant associations with diabetes risk that remained significant after adjustment for SES and BMI (all p < 0.0005). In both AFAs and HAs, SES showed significant negative associations while BMI or WHR had significant positive associations with diabetes risk, with and without adjustment for genetic admixture. In AFAs, admixture, SES and BMI/WHR each independently contribute to diabetes risk after accounting for each of the other factors; in HAs, admixture, SES and BMI each independently contribute to diabetes risk after accounting for each of the other factors, whereas admixture is not significantly associated with diabetes risk after accounting for SES and WHR. The findings emphasise the importance of considering both genetic and environmental causes in the aetiology of type 2 diabetes.Diabetologia 02/2012; 55(5):1329-37.

A sales candidate who comes to us with substantial industry experience and/or a great book of business can seem like a dream come true. Considering the potential for leveraging the candidate's experience and contacts, it may even be tempting to shortcut the testing and interviewing process. Make no mistake, experience is critical, especially when we need the salesperson to start producing quickly. However, a careful vetting process is still essential. In particular, we need to answer three key questions:
- Does the candidate have experience at a similarly-sized company? Candidates from companies of a different size than our own may have difficulty adapting to the unique challenges of our sales cycle and brand recognition level. For example, a candidate with experience at a larger company with strong brand awareness and a short sales cycle may have trouble moving to a smaller, younger company with a longer cycle.
- Why is the candidate looking for a new position? Is it a performance issue, or are they simply looking for a new challenge? Look at their previous job moves as well to assess longevity as well as other consistent patterns of behavior behind their moves.
- Will the candidate continue to bring the same effort to bear for you? If we are looking for a hunter, we need to be sure the candidate will continue calling on new accounts, rather than relying only on their existing book of business. This is where a Drive-focused sales assessment test and interview are critical.
Experienced sales candidates are essential for many positions, particularly those with a short ramp-up time. As hiring managers, we need to dig beneath the surface to determine the quality as well as the quantity of that experience.
What do you look for in experienced sales candidates? Please let us know in the comments below.

A vehicle was involved in a head-on collision with an eastbound pickup truck Thursday evening in Allenton, according to a news release from the Washington County Sheriff's Office.
West Bend Police responded to a report of erratic driving on E. Washington St. near the intersection with S. River Rd. 7:26 p.m. but were unable to locate the vehicle, the release said.
A Washington County sheriff's deputy saw the vehicle traveling westbound at a high rate of speed about 7:52 p.m. and finally located the vehicle following the crash near the intersection of Main and Church streets.
The driver and passenger of the suspect vehicle were transported by ambulance to St. Joseph's Hospital for serious injuries, and the driver was later transferred to Froedtert Hospital by Flight for Life. Ambulance transported the driver and sole occupant of the eastbound pickup truck to Aurora Medical Center in Hartford for minor injuries.
Alcohol and speed appear to be factors in the crash, but no additional details, including the type of vehicle or name, age or gender of those involved, is being released, according to the release.

by Jerry Ann Yoder
When I first engaged Liz as a personal trainer, I was a true couch potato who found walking a mile difficult. At 61, I thought I was just getting old. Nine months later I climbed Mt Katahdin! A year later I led a group of 8 women up Katahdin and the next year I did my first bike race! Liz gave me my life back and my grandchildren are very happy Grammie can play hard with them! I still find staying active difficult, but Liz keeps me going!
by Sarah Szanton
Liz has enriched my life not only by motivating me to exercise regularly, but by being a model educator who has inspired my own teaching career. As the famous Chinese proverb says, "Tell me, I'll forget. Show me, I'll remember. Involve me, I'll understand." Liz involves and engages her students with passion, energy, and style. She clearly has fun getting fit and being fit. Her dedicated students eagerly follow her example!
by Nancy Horigan
Liz is WONDERFUL! Attending her weekly Yogalates (Pilates and yoga) class for the past 6 years and seeing and feeling the continued improvement in my flexibility, strength and overall physical being is what keeps me going back for more. In fact this will be my second year of an additional weekly one on one strength training. Liz is attentive to each person's skill and physical abilities and her gentle prodding to "do just one more" has proven well worth the effort. She is truly interested in helping each one of us attain a better sense of our own physical abilities and better overall health.
by Janet Barns
Liz, thank you for sharing your energy, knowledge and compassion with me. You've been an inspiration for good health, fitness and wellness for over 35 years, and still going strong!

Wellness, health and fitness are my passions. I'd like to share my energy with YOU!

Geoff Calkins: Beating Tennessee Vols is doubly satisfying
The cheer started in the student section, faint at first, then rousing.
Clap, clap, clap-clap-clap.
Clap, clap, clap-clap-clap.
And the second time was the charm, wasn't it?
The Memphis Tigers smashed the Tennessee Volunteers at FedExForum Wednesday night, 69-51. And if it was the second time this season that the Tigers had beaten the Vols, it was the first time in a long time that they won a game like this.
"Tonight was a good win, there's no doubt," said Memphis coach Josh Pastner, who then merrily went after the radio guys who had been ripping him just hours before.
But, then, it was hard to blame the radio guys. Hard to blame the growing number of skeptical fans.
Never mind the five dispiriting losses. The Tigers just didn't look like a team, you know?
Until Wednesday, that is. Until the hated Volunteers rolled into town, with their hated fans, and their hated orange jerseys, and their (suddenly) hated new recruit, Jarnell Stokes.
The Tigers had beaten Tennessee in Maui earlier in the year. But that didn't earn them a reprieve from watching the game tape of last year's humiliating loss in Knoxville.
"We've seen the tape all year," said Antonio Barton. "We saw it earlier this week. Whenever there's a TV where we're at, that tape is on."
So the Tigers came out and played with an edge from the start. They overwhelmed the Volunteers on defense. They outrebound them, 36-26.
It wasn't always pretty, but it was easily the hardest the team has played all year.
And it wasn't all about Will Barton this time. Indeed, Barton didn't start because he was late to a team meeting, and wound up with just 10 points and 4 rebounds.
No matter. Everyone else was in there, scrapping and clawing and taking a full measure of revenge.
Adonis Thomas set the tone by flying in from the right wing and hammering home a dunk. Wesley Witherspoon didn't practice all week because of a bum knee but played 21 minutes anyway.
Antonio Barton went 4 of 5 from beyond the arc and scored 19 points.
Tarik Black had 18 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks.
Then there was Joe Jackson, the prodigal point guard. He got a huge ovation for taking a charge. He got another huge ovation when he was run over going for a rebound.
"I got to play with an edge," said Jackson. "I'm not soft at all."
This was a theme in the locker room after the game, by the way. This rejection of the label "soft."
"We're not playing anymore," said Antonio Barton. "We're not soft the way people say we are. Everyone in this locker room has been through a lot. Soft is the last thing we are."
It's the last thing they were Wednesday. And that's even before Will Barton touched off a fracas, sprinting to get into it with Tennessee freshman Wes Washpun.
"We had to defend our turf," said Black. "I think that's what people want to see from us."
And, no, nobody is confusing this Tennessee team with Kentucky or Duke or even Tennessee teams of years past. The Vols are lousy. The Tigers were supposed to take them apart. But wasn't it a relief that they did?
Memphis needed a win like that. The Memphis players needed the chance to feel good about themselves. It didn't hurt that it came the night after the death of former Memphis coach Gene Bartow.
Pastner dedicated the win to Bartow, and that was surely the right touch. Because the whole night was a testament to Bartow's life and work.
The arena crammed with Memphis fans?
That's Bartow.
The roster brimming with Memphis kids?
That's Bartow.
The final score was quintessential Bartow, too. He liked winning. Who doesn't like winning? When you win a game like Wednesday's, all is right with the world.
"It felt good to beat those guys," said Antonio Barton.
You can say that again.

Review: Kona Process 153
Read Vernon's final take on Kona's all-mountain slayer.
All bikes
Exclusive: 2013 Bible Review – Giant Glory 0
Giant's re-worked Glory is a dyed-in-the-wool World Cup racer—light, stiff, well-equipped and built for speed.
Rocky Mountain Altitude 790 MSL Preview
Rocky completely redesigned the Altitude line this year. There are five new models in the lineup—three of them bearing carbon somewhere on the frames, two others rocking all-aluminum chassis. The 790 is, in fact, a total carbon fiber dance party (both the front and rear triangles are made of the stuff).
Exclusive: 2013 Bible Review – Kona Process DL
Every feature on the trail felt more doable on the Kona. In the strictest sense of the word, it was certainly the most all-mountain of the bikes we had on test.
Exclusive: 2013 Bible Review – BMC Fourstroke FS01 29
The FS01's geometry is set somewhere between 'trail' and 'cross-country,' making it eager to rally through corners and manual through whoops when the track points down. Where other cross-country bikes might start feeling sketchy, this bike just wants to go faster. Our test model broke, but BMC states that this is a first-time failure for this model. Check out the review for more.
Exclusive: 2013 Bible Review – Salsa El Mariachi 2
Our cross-country test course possessed its share of technical climbs and descents that kept our testers on their toes. Despite that fact, each rider found there was something about the Salsa El Mariachi 2 that made it feel right at home among all the fancier, newfangled rigs.
Exclusive: 2013 Bible Review – Niner Jet 9 Carbon
Sure, it'd make a competent race bike, but with a 120-millimeter fork and some 2.4-inch tires thrown in the mix—the frame is designed to accommodate both of these things—the Jet 9 Carbon could also prove a capable trail bike.
Exclusive: 2013 Bible Review–Scott Genius 720
If you like mixing it up between cross-country throttling and technical charging, the Scott Genius 720 might be your match.
Exclusive: 2013 Bible Review – Santa Cruz Tallboy LTc
Santa Cruz's long-travel, carbon 29er was top three in many of our books and took home one Editor's Pick selection. Why did we universally like this bike? Check out the video.
Exclusive: Video Review – 2013 Diamondback Mason
Just as Zeppelin left Top 40 to the Bee Gees while they pursued something pure and kick ass, so too has Diamondback steered away from the obvious style of 29er with this model, the Mason.
Exclusive: 2013 Bible Review – Devinci Wilson Carbon SL
The Wilson has an interesting mix of soft, ground-hugging suspenstion that tracks well in turns and shrugs off square-edged hits, and a stiff, lightweight frame. What did our testers think of it? Check out the video.
Exclusive: 2013 Bible Review – Ibis Mojo HD
The Ibis Mojo HD has received a few key upgrades since we first tested it two years ago and continues to hold its own in the light, yet brawny, superbike category. Here's the video review from our Bible of Bike Test sessions in Fruita.
Exclusive: 2013 Bible Review – Banshee Prime
The 2013 Bible of Bike Tests issue is just now hitting newsstands around the world. This year we went the extra step of videotaping the action from our time spent testing and reviewing the most promising bikes and gear. Here's what we thought of Banshee's all-mountain wagon wheeler, the Prime.
Preview: Rocky Mountain Instinct 970
The 29er Instinct has a lot in common with the latest Altitude. Obviously, it shares the Element and Altitude's basic frame design. Less apparent, but just as important, the Instinct 29er also boasts "RIDE-9": a shock mount containing two interlocking chips that enable you to significantly customize the bike's geometry and rear suspension behavior.
Preview: 2013 Specialized Enduro Expert
Lighter and more efficient--Specialized tweaked the new 2013 Enduro with an eye towards improving its climbing abilities while retaining its unrivaled descending traits. Here's a quick rundown on the bike, which is just now hitting stores.
Review: Norco Shinobi 2
The Shinobi is a fun and capable trail shredder that will efficiently take you to the top of the climb and will charge all the way to the bottom. In the realm of 29er all-mountain bikes, the Norco certainly holds its own.
Video: Specialized's 2013 Demo 8
Here's a bit of background on the latest iteration of the Specialized Demo 8 and why Berrecloth chooses to pilot it.
Tested: Converting from 26er to 650B
Replaceable drop-outs enable you to convert Intense's Carbine into a 650B rig. We give it a go.
Fresh: Specialized S-Works Fate Carbon 29
Specialized S-Works Fate Carbon 29 specialized.com $7,500 The Fate Carbon is one women's mountain bike where the phrase "pink it and shrink it" does not apply in the slightest–there is not a bit of pink on this bike (that we could find), it's frame shape is totally different than the men's version, and it definitely […]
Fresh: Marin Mount Vision XM
Marin Mount Vision XM Pro marinbikes.com $5300 While the linkage on the Marin Mount Vision XM may look vastly different than the company's Quad-Link Suspension designs of a few years ago, the overall suspension characteristics remain very similar. The more "conventionally shaped" frame of this, the third iteration of the Quad-Link design allows for more […]
Fresh: Fezzari Hidden Peak
Fezzari Hidden Peak X.0 fezzari.com If you are wondering why you've never seen a Fezzari in a bike shop, it's because , unlike most bike companies, the company sells most of its bikes direct to the consumer. Fezzari claims this helps keep the consumer's costs down, while keeping its product quality high. To help waive […]

End to decades-old Tipton desegregation order studied
A federal judge said Tuesday that the Tipton County School District deserve praise for the progress it has made under a four-decade-old desegregation order.
"You deserve the recognition," U.S. Dist. Judge Jon P. McCalla said during a hearing on a motion to drop the order. "It's nice to have a success story every now and again."
McCalla said he plans to decide on the district's motion for "unitary status" by Dec. 1.
In the late 1960s, three black teachers sued the Tipton County Board of Education for equality. Since then, the district hasn't built a school or drawn a zone line without the Justice Department's approval.
Department officials recently deemed the district worthy of "unitary status" and last month filed a joint motion with the district to dissolve the desegregation order.
At Tuesday's hearing, Tipton school officials -- including the nephew of one of the original plaintiffs -- testified.
Rickey Fayne, Tipton schools director of operations, whose great-aunt and cousin were plaintiffs in the case, said the district has made tremendous strides under the order.
Fayne said he's confident that the district can operate on its own.
"I'm kind of proud that my family had the foresight to file the lawsuit," Fayne said. "It's been a guiding light for us. ... I think we've met every mark."
Fayne attended Tipton schools and has been a teacher, coach, principal or administrator in the district since 1976.
"Your word goes a long way with me on this matter," McCalla told Rickey Fayne. "You feel like this is the right thing to do?"
"I feel like this is the right thing to do," Fayne replied.
Tipton schools attorney Valerie B. Speakman questioned witnesses Fayne and Becky Shankle, who oversees personnel for the district.
They testified that the district has met the requirements of Justice Department officials, who've monitored the racial makeup of students, staff and faculty, transportation patterns and disciplinary referrals.
"We're extremely proud," Fayne said. "To go backwards, to me, would be unreal."
Speakman, who was recently named staff attorney for the Shelby County School District, thanked McCalla for his close supervision of the Tipton County case.
Tipton officials are keeping in mind a judge's recent decision not to free the Shelby County district of a 44-year-old desegregation order.

Happiness Lesson for Today: Letting Go!
Happiness means learning how to let go
Happiness means learning how to let go
By Maureen Healy
It may be letting go of a relationship that didn't work, or career that isn't panning out. Sometimes we find ourselves hanging on for dear life and when the truth is that it is only in the miracle of letting-go that things can change. I speak from experience. I have done the normal human dance of hanging on to something or someone so tight that we miss other opportunities for real happiness.
But with time, I have learned how to genuinely move through life with more ease. I take lessons from all of these caterpillars around that have to let-go of their hairy bodies to become the beautiful butterflies they are destined to become. Yes, it's a little corny analogy but it's true for me – and true for you.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) won a second-consecutive victory in the annual Conservative Political Action Conference straw poll Saturday, and it wasn't even close. Paul captured 31 percent of the vote, putting him well ahead of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) who came in second with 11 percent.
Unfortunately for Paul, CPAC's marquee event is largely an indicator of which candidate's supporters bothered to vote in a purely symbolic popularity contest, and it has almost no predictive value for future presidential primaries. Paul's father, former Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), won the poll in 2010 and 2011, while other past winners who did not go on to win the White House, nor even the GOP primary, include Steve "flat tax" Forbes, Phil Gramm, Rudy Giuliani, and George Allen. Mitt Romney did win the poll four times, but he flopped in the 2008 GOP primary despite winning at CPAC that year and the year prior. Jon Terbush
At the Episcopal General Convention in Salt Lake City on Wednesday, Episcopalians voted to allow religious weddings for gay couples.
Many dioceses allowed priests to perform civil same-sex weddings, but the law was officially changed with Wednesday's vote, The Associated Press reports. Under the new rule, gender-specific language is removed from church laws on marriage, with "the couple" replacing "husband and wife." Clergy members can also decline to perform same-sex ceremonies.
On Tuesday, the House of Bishops approved the resolution 129-26, with five abstaining, and it was overwhelmingly passed by the House of Deputies, the voting body of lay people and clergy, Wednesday. The Very Rev. Brian Baker of Sacramento said the House of Bishops prayed and debated the issue for five hours before their vote. "We have learned to not only care for, but care about one another," he told AP. "That mutual care was present in the conversations we had. Some people disagreed, some people disagreed deeply, but we prayed and we listened and we came up with compromises that we believe make room and leave no one behind." Catherine Garcia
A man was killed by a robot earlier this week at one of Volkswagen's German production plants.
The 22-year-old died Monday at the Baunatel plant about 62 miles north of Frankfurt, Volkswagen spokesman Heiko Hillwig said. The man was setting up the stationary robot with another team member when it grabbed and crushed him against a metal plate. Hillwig said the initial investigation points to human error as opposed to a problem with the robot, which is programmed to do different production tasks. The robot ordinarily operated in an area of the plant where it grabbed auto parts and manipulated them, The Associated Press reports.
A German news agency, dpa, is reporting that prosecutors are considering whether to press charges, and if so, against whom. The other contractor who was at the scene was not injured. Catherine Garcia
The Baltimore Police Department will install video cameras inside all of its vans, more than two months after the death of Freddie Gray.
Gray died in April, one week after he sustained severe injuries in the back of a police van. There was a camera inside the van, but it was meant for surveillance and wasn't working, Time reports. Gray's death sparked riots across Baltimore, and in addition to adding the cameras to record inside the vans, the Baltimore Police Department plans to review its riot gear, since some failed to work during the protests. By 2019, the department also plans to outfit every officer with a body camera. Catherine Garcia
In California, residential water use dropped a whopping 28.9 percent in May, the State Resource Control Board said Wednesday.
That was a major increase over the 13.6 percent water savings in April, compared to April 2013. "My first response is almost disbelief," Mark Gold of UCLA's Institute of the Environment and Sustainability told the Los Angeles Times. "It is such an incredible number. These results are beyond encouraging; they're heartening. They make you realize that as a whole, people in urban areas are making the sacrifices necessary to get through this unprecedented drought."
On April 1, Gov. Jerry Brown (D) ordered a mandatory 25 percent cut in urban water use due to the drought. "The numbers tell us that more Californians are stepping up to help us make their communities more water secure, which is welcome news in the face of this dire drought," State Water Board Chairwoman Felicia Marcus said in a statement. "That said, we need all Californians to step up — and keep it up — as if we don't know when it will rain and snow again, because we don't. If the drought continues beyond this year, we'll all be glad we did." Catherine Garcia
A man swimming off Ocracoke Island in North Carolina was pulled underwater by a gray shark on Wednesday and bit several times, authorities said.
The 68-year-old was in waist-deep water about 30 feet from the beach when a gray shark between 6 to 7 feet long pulled him under and bit his rib cage, hands, lower left leg, and hip, Reuters reports. The man was with his adult son, who was not injured. He was able to swim to shore, the Cape Hatteras National Seashore Park Service said on Facebook, and was stabilized on the beach before being flown to a hospital.
The incident follows two attacks Saturday off North Carolina's Outer Banks, and back to back attacks June 14 within two miles of each other on Oak Island. Catherine Garcia
"Smoke weed every Wednesday" could become a new mantra for members of Indiana's First Church of Cannabis, which held its first formal service today.
Indiana made waves a few months ago when it passed a controversial version of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), banning state and local laws that could "substantially burden" religious freedom. Critics of RFRA were concerned it would permit discrimination against the LGBT community, using religion as justification. Though the legislation was later amended to prevent such occurrences, Bill Levin, founder and "Grand Poobah and Minister of Love," created the First Church of Cannabis as a way to test the law.
"Of course I'm going to test this law," said Levin, a religious smoker himself, in an interview with U.S. News. "We're building a church with the cornerstone of love, the way religions are supposed to be built."
In the middle of Wednesday afternoon, when plenty of attendees apparently had time on their hands, the church held its first-ever service. The proceedings had many things a regular church-goer would expect — including a performance of "Amazing Grace", a collection, and even a sermon — though there were, of course, some eccentric flourishes (church leaders took shots of "Kool Aid" at one point).

Following the offending tweet from The New York Times, the internet has responded in the only way it knows how: with collective outrage.
Even the Texas GOP weighed in, calling The New York Times' suggestion a "war on Texas" (never mind that pretty much everything is a war on Texas):

Which TV Star Said He Would "Burst Into Flames" If He Walked Into a Church?
The Jersey Shore stars aren't exactly squeaky clean, but this guido might have condemned himself a little more than necessary when he said, "I'm definitely not a saint. If I probably walked through church, I'd f***ing burst into flames, to be honest with you."
But do you remember who said it? Click on to the next slide for the answer.

Batman: Arkham Knight (PC) review: Holy squandered potential, Batman
Up front: There are going to be spoilers in this review. Or, at least, a few of you may deem them spoilers--I am going to actively discuss some of the villains in Arkham Knight. By name. And a few of the plot points. Why? Because there are very specific examples that I feel embody Arkham Knight's failings, and it's easier for me to just talk through them than talk around them.

Advice on Vietnam
I'm living here now and things are going good. I'm really enjoying it. I bought a 2007 TTR 250 with motard wheels and a 2002 XR250 with full off-road knobbies. We also got a little 100cc scooter that's perfect for zipping around town.
I'll keep posting until I get a ride report that deserves its own thread.
I'm thinking about putting in for a expat job in Vietnam for the multinational company I work for. My wife is all for it but I'm kind of leery about it. I thought I'd at least post some questions in here.
It's a power plant in Mông Dương which is in the Northeast part of Vietnam.
I have limited info so far. We would probably be living on the plant site in a community that gets set up eventually. Before that, we may have to live about an hour away. I've heard they're looking for a four year commitment. That seems like a long time. One guy that went over there quit and came back. He told me they were living in containers. The plant is still under construction. I'm not sure if they were finished or actual containers with some cots in them.
A little about us:
My wife and I are both in our 40's, kids are grown and on their own. Both are avid dirt and street riders. We both race trail races. I'm and A rider and she's a B rider.
Some questions:
Sorry if the questions are basic. We really have no idea how it is there.
I've been to Taiwan and Hong Kong 12 years ago so that's my comparison.
The expat package would be good with a premium over my current salary, travel allowance, paid living expenses, tax equalization, etc. We would keep our place in Hawaii but would not have a guaranteed return job. We love Hawaii and this will always be our home.
This would be a good way to see a bunch of other stuff on someone else's dime and reduce the time to retirement.
I will give you what info I know. My wife is from Vietnam, and I have spent some time there, so i know a bit about the country. Unfortunately, she is from the south and that is the only part of the country i have visited. The south tends to be more modern as apposed to the north which is more traditional, both in terms of socialization and the economy.
1) in the cities i was in, i felt more than comfortable going around by my self, probably had something to do with the fact that I'm 6'3. You will get to know which are the better markets and which are the shady ones. If your work is setting up a housing complex, its common that it will be in a "white" neighborhood, where a large portion of the residents are foreigners there for work. So you will meet people, and seeing a foreigner at the market will become common place and not a spectacle for the locals in the area.
2)You could bring your bikes, but be prepared to pay, there is a 400% tax on importing vehicles that are not made in Vietnam.
3)you would be hard pressed to find a job unless you speak the local language.
4) no idea if there is anything in the bushes, but i know malaria is still an issue in the bush in northern Vietnam, better talk to your doctor if you plan on doing some bush riding.
5) Kind of answered in 1. TBH the roads there take a lot of getting used to, I can't even say its organized chaos, its just chaos. at least thats what it looks like if you are used to driving in america/europe/any non asian contry
It is infact very safe, everyone on the road looks after one another, as apposed the the american "this is my road, i own it" mentality.
6) no idea, talk to VietHorse, he resides in Vietnam and may be able to tell you, but if i remember right, he lives in Saigon (ho chi min) city, which is in the southern part of the country.
7) most major cities have a section of town that foreigners move to, so I'm sure you will see some.
Like i said please keep in mind that only have experience in southern Vietnam which tends to be less traditional and things may be different in the north.
I would like to point out, after the first 2 weeks of my 6 week visit did i decide that i wanted to retire there. absolutely the most beautiful country I have ever been to. the lifestyle and daily routine take a bit of an adjustment, but its completely worth it. typing all this really makes me want to go back.
Thanks so much for taking the time to respond.
I talked to a friend who works for the same company as I do and he shared some info. I've gotten comfortable that she'll be safe.
As far as work/purpose for her, he said that anyone with an American accent will have opportunities.
Housing: We'll be in a very remote area and the plan is to have a community on the plant site. That's about a year from being completed so we'll have to live out in town somewhere. Luckily, my wife is very low maintenance and tough so she's up for whatever.
We'll both definitely want to ride off-road. We'll bring our riding gear and try to pick up some dual sport bikes there locally. We'll have one or two trips per year back to Hawaii so we'll keep our bikes/set of gear here as well. I plan on coming back to do the big race(s). I can't get a clear understanding on the size restrictions. Most sources say 175cc but then I find a thread with pictures of Harleys.
I know we'll make friends. That's one of the many great things about the motorcycling community. No matter what cultural, socio-economic, whatever differences, bikes will always bring people together.
I think, you as an adventurer will not be dispapointed if you come here
we have a lot of off-road riders and riding here a lot of fun
it's safe here for you and your wife, I have some friends from Canada, Germany who live here for more than ten years
I know the area you will be living, for sure you can live in a nearby town or in Halong city. (in June this year we will have an offroad competition (4x4) in this province)
Here you can get big bikes: Harley, Ducati, BMW... (I have F650GS) if you have $$ to pay taxes
we dont have race track yet, but riding in the forest or to the mountains would be more interesting.
hope these can help you to make decision
let me know if you need more infor
I have a 2013 KTM500 exc with motard wheels.
Can I pretty much rule out bringing it due to import taxes? Man I love that bike.
Are there other decent dual sports that meet the engine size restrictions?
Also, I don't race motocross. Just trails.
Hi I lived in Hanoi for 7 years and have found Vietnam to be a very safe country for foreigners , they have very severe penaltys for crime against foreigners.
The Northern mountains are an extremely beautifull area to ride.
It seems really safe. I haven't ran across any negative stories about it.
As far as riding, I looked at motorcycles for sale in Vietnam. Mostly scooters but I saw some bigger dirt bikes. Can anyone shed light on how those are getting in?
For example,
Is this an off-road only or could you ride it on the street? Did someone import it and pay the 100% tariff that I've read about? How is that determined?
begin ad:
good condition KTM 350 SXF, new cylinder head + cylinder + piston, all stuff is less then 30 hr. some aftermarket stuffs, rest stock. bike runs great with no issue. asking 6k5 usd shipped to your door. contact 0903002308. thanks
Location: quan binh thanh
G'day Stan, sorry about taking a while to get back to you. Just to let you know where I'm coming from - I've lived in Hanoi for the last four years, used to ride a road bike back in Aus, have done quite a lot of travelling around the North/North West on smaller bikes/scooters and just picked up KLX250 last year.
Regarding how a lot of the >175cc dirt bikes get in - I'm not sure of the exact mechanics of it but you'll find a lot (not all) of them are not properly registered. Some will have no papers at all and some have papers saying they are 150cc or less (this is mostly to avoid needing the hard to get big bike license I think). Corruption and long, loosely controlled land borders with even less tightly governed countries probably goes some way to explaining it. Enforcement of having vehicles properly registered is tightening up though so this might begin to change.
Other general advice:
- You'll be here for a while so make the effort to at least learn some of the language. It's not an easy and not many (western) foreigners get to the point of fluency but having some basics makes life so much better. You'll need to take lessons and it will be frustrating at times but it pays off.
- Life's pretty comfortable in VN but come into it with an open mind and flexible attitude or you'll be constantly frustrated by things that don't work the same or as well as you are used to at home.
@Hung Anh la chu tich CLB Offroad Ha Noi dung khong? Em da gap anh mot lan roi, o bai Song Hong khi lam chuong trinh TV ve nhom Dirtbike.
Thanks for the detailed reply geezus.
I emailed the guy with the KTM 350 on the Vietnam craigslist. He said the bike is in HCMC. I didn't ask him how but I sure would like to know if there's a way to get my 2008 KTM 300 in the country.
I did 3 years in HCMC working for an oil company. A remote part of VN would be more of a challenge from a point of view of finding things to do but safety in all ov VN is fine.
You need a VN licence to ride without problems and you need an A2 class licence to ride bikes over 175cc. Basically, the Vietnamese do not like giving out A2 licences to foreigners. It appears to be impossible in HCMC but I have heard of foreigners getting an A2 licence in Vung Tau. An A1+car licence is easy to get. In 2010 it was expensive to permanently import bikes. Temp imports may be cheaper or the rules may have changed, I don't know.
Overall it is safe for you, safe for your wife but anywhere out of the way there will not be much to do.
See signature for trip reports.
I almost bought a fake 250cc bike at one stage but as I was going to get the cash, I thought to myself "do I really want to spend $2500 on a 15 year old bike with fake papers".... Then I bought a new 125cc with real papers for half the price instead.
OP you should bear in mind that travel speeds are much slower in VN. IMHO a 250cc bike would be perfect for VN. You don't need a larger bike.... so if 250cc is perfect, maybe a locally sold 175cc with good spare part availability is sort of ok.
Thanks for all of the advice so far. I think we're going for a visit before we commit. Maybe it'll be in May.
Just see this thread.
Let me take sometimes to read all the content first... :deal
My wife and I are coming the first or second week of May for a visit. We plan on staying a few days each in Hanoi, Ha Long bay, and Cam Pha (the area near where the plant is being built).
Thanks in advance for any advice.
The biggest thing I'm having to come to terms with is how my dirt riding will change. We'll probably do more backpacking and camping. We've been wanting to do other things but they never compete with riding dirt bikes! I saw a KTM 350 exc in HCMC for $6500. I emailed the guy and he says he has it there. Something like that would be great and even better if I could ride it on the street.
One thing I wonder, could I apply for an A2 due to my size? I'm 6'2" and 225 lbs so a Minsk is going to be a little cramped!

Some time ago I posted a look saying I've been especially fond of using red as accessory color this summer. Well, I have, and here's another look with some red, taken some weeks ago.
The jacket is from LBM 1911, shirt from SuitSupply, cotton knit tie from Eredi Chiarini, pocket square from A. Christensen, belt from Equus Leather, trousers from SuitSupply and tassel loafers from Septième Largeur.
Navy, lighter blues, white and a touch of red. A color palette that rarely misses.
My first ever cotton knit tie, this Eredi Chiarini knit tie ties a beautiful knot and has a nice deep red color without the shine (and with it too much color for my liking) you'd get from a red silk knit tie.
An A. Christensen paisley pocket square I got last year from a local sale. A pretty good partner for this red knit tie.
When these pics were taken the shoes probably had about 10-15 days being used behind them, and it seems they are aging very nicely. Naturally they're still nearly new, but you can usually tell how the wrinkling and patina is going to form at this point.
