Mayhem Miller's Lackluster UFC Career | UFC NEWS
By Evan Stoumbelis
On Saturday night, during the UFC 146 prelims, we saw Jason "Mayhem" Miller face TUF runner-up CB Dollaway. After rocking Dollaway twice, the fight went to a decision, and Dollaway won the fight via unanimous decision.
During the post-fight press conference Dana White said that the UFC was done with the charismatic fighter following a backstage incident that took place after the fight. There was a rumor circulating that Mayhem had trashed the warm-up room, but we have yet to confirm this. Dana White said that Mayhem wouldn't be fighting in the UFC or any other Zuffa company. If this holds to be true, it looks like fans wont be seeing much of Mayhem anymore, who is 0-3 in his UFC career. I decided to take this opportunity to look back at Mayhem's lackluster career.
In 2005 Mayhem stepped into the Octagon against future Welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre at UFC 52. Mayhem went the distance with GSP and lost in a unanimous decision victory; Mayhem wouldn't set foot in the Octagon for 5 years. During that time he fought for Dream, WEC, and WFA. In 2010, Mayhem coached season 14 of TUF, against Michael Bisping. In the finale, Mayhem suffered a brutal defeat at the hands of Bisping, leaving him 0-2 in the Octagon. Last Saturday, after months of Mayhem's trash talking about how he would "beat the fart-face off Dollaway" Mayhem lost to Dollaway via decision, leaving him 0-3 in the Octagon.

I am a fan of Miller, but before this fight even started I knew he was going to lose. With the comments like "I'm looking past CB". He didn't take the fight seriously enough. CB is no slouch. Instead of show-boating in the first round he should have been throwing more punches.
Oh well, back to bully beat down i guess…
Agreed , he is a entertaining dude but should maybe start looking to host another show some where , what happened to the Mayhem that fought Shields and almost won ?
Yes we r uce
Is anyone on crack? I think so….. the man comes back and coach's tuf, fights and looks like he was freaken sick!!? But no one notices? No excuses the man juss does his job and fight sbecause besides being critisized, he is isn't noticed or. Apreciated for not bitching out…. again idk how many times Rogan points out his leg yet was obviously messed up b4 the ffight yet nobody else wants to give this guy credit that he obviously is getting his opportunities and the worse of times and he has too much pride to bck down.despite his charisma, this man is still a top contender in my book and obviously still has a great fan base…. won't be fight for zuffa at all? Freaken rediculous
Not to mention that Dollaway kept headbutting during the fight. Even the referee and joe rogan complained about it as well as miller. And all away snuck his finger into millers glove a time or 2, to get a better grip that the referee never saw. It looks like his knee was seriously injured before the fight, and definitely gave out on him during the match for sure. It is a shame he has fought so horribly these last few fights. When he said he was looking past dollaway, that was him being a smart ass. But it made him look really dumb. I am a fan but was very disappointed in all this stuff. I definitely don't think we will see mayhem miller in a ring or cage again.
Looked like he was trying to sneak that finger somewhere else to me….. Lmao
Mayhem fought Bisbing who is supposedly considered a top contender and CB who is an average fighter but the only thing CB could do was hold him down and that was with Miller having a bum knee. I think Miller deserves another shot. The fans really seem to like him. I'd rather watch Miller fight any day than or Chael or CB or Fitch who are all just going to hold guys down.
what i cant believe is how bj penn's website is supporting this crap article when they get pissed when they say bj is unmotivated has cardio issues and has lackluster matches because of that completely double standard
I am and will always be a huge Mayhem fan, he's got more fans, supporters, followers, and personality than most fighters in the UFC. I've seen way worse fights and longer losing streaks from other UFC fighters that didn't get cut. I really think Dana had issues with Mayhem to begin with and his getting cut was more personal than anything.
Everyone commenting is forgetting Dana said there was an incident behind the scenes that caused mayhem to get released. Along with his fight record. So it's more than just back to back poor performances
Let's believe what the " man " says….. He wouldn't lie…And he's always gonna know what's best for us too… Trust the " man"… He can not tell a lie…. Lol..
It isn't necessarily solely a matter of winning or losing, look at Dan Hardy until just recently sapping his 4 in a row loss.
The real problem comes with Mayhem's overall demeanour, which obviously rubs Dana the wrong way.
Miller, "I'm going to punch him in his fart-face." Seriously, who (besides elementary school children) says fart face?
The UFC knew what Miller was like before they accepted him in. His behavior is no secret and never has been. The fans love him and they knew that.
I agree with all your points, except "the fans" should be "some fans" sorry for being picky. But there is a difference there in your generalization. I never really liked Miller's demeanor either. I'm sure he's nice in person, and I would be nice to him. But I have always disliked how he promotes himself, too clown-ish for my taste.
<——– guilty
I say poopy pants too… Lmfao
When I think of CB I think of him and that other fellow sitting in the swimming pool with their white shades on looking extra douchy.
That was his life partner…. Lmao
CB Dollaway just laid on him … HOW could the Ref. NOT stand them up when he was doing NO damage… and your blaming Mayhem… Please pull till you hear a POP… then its out !!!
And don't forget… You'll see a light too… I'm sure it will be brite…don't be afraid
brah maybe if he took it serios insted of always joking around he wud be sumthing in da ufc but since all he dose is talk shet AND DANCE AROUND LIKE A JACKASS, and das why scrubs arent welcome in the ufc, so take ur bagz of monkeys sum were else u queeah
Are you 3 years old or did you just skip spelling class for 10 years shit man you look stupid this isn't a text message or a forum for the academicaly retarded fuck off
i love when wanna be hilo fags try type ith an accent..they take there time and try soud so island extra hard…u know how much slower they have to tyoe to try sound lke that …its sad
Mayhem is a chump…his wins are against chumps…quite frankly if you can't perform with the best in the world why are you there? His release is well deserved
Mayhem had a lot of fans entertained in Hawaii everytime he fought. His career may have not been against the upper echelon of fighters, but he brought UFC entertainment to whereever he was, got asses in seats, and marketed himself so that he could have a following, REGARDLESS of his lack of high caliber fighting skills.
So yeah, he cannot hang in the UFC but he sure tried his best and got some tickets sold. He could do ok in Bellator, perhaps. And really any org that he can get in with other than Strikeforce and UFC. That is what he is capable of.
For a guy who cannot hang he still seems to get attention. You have to give him credit where it is due.
This writer deciding to take a look back at his "lackluster career" and only producing a few paragraphs is pretty damn lackluster as a journalist. You have not mentioned anything about the fights with Lawler and Niko. Sure these were in smaller orgs but they were very entertaining and had me and thousands of otheres wanting to watch the fights and looking forward to them.
If anything this article is lackluster and poorly written. Very few facts are included. You say you are going to write about somebody's career but produce 20 seconds of stats?
How lazy are you? This is the problem with this site nowadays. It could be so much better if they had writers who actually are worth a damn.
These articles are made of shit. This piece of shit reads like a half written article, fucking view whores.
I agree about the article. It states, "I decided to take this opportunity to look back at Mayhem's lackluster career." Then I read a half-assed paragraph about 3 UFC fight decisions and offered no insight or any additional information. I clicked on the "read more" link under the last paragraph in the hopes that it would yield more. It just took me to another story. Evan Stoumbelis is an incredibly lazy writer
Haha, your last statement made me burst out laughing.
idiots here are forgeting that he ay not hve been cut for losing…dana saw that he had a bum knee and still fought….and e did ok and almost ko cb 2 times,,if he had good knee he would hav ranhim down and finished him when he was hurt….but the fired him cu after the fight he tryd to fight cb again an his corner crew in the backstage..that was the backstage incedent that got him canned
uh, no he didn't dumb fuck. that was a rumor spread by middleeasy, the 'incident' was dana had burt tell mayhem to take the mask off just moments before he was about to walk out and it pissed off mayhem cause he was trying to get in the zone, but he still wore the mask. Until dana actually says what the 'incident' is, this is the only real information out there.
totally wrong. there was no incident backstage. this has been cleared up, at least by mayhem. he's had 2 interviews saying that the 'incident' was with Burt backstage as mayhem was literally getting ready to walk out. Burt told mayhem that dana wanted him to take off his mask that he had on for his entrance and mayhem was a little upset that they were giving him shit as he was walking out. there was no fights, no post fight spats, or anything with any of CB's people.
honestly im sad i knew he was going to to lose to bisping. but jesus ive never seen worse standup in my life. my mma record is 1-0 and kickboxing is 1-3 and my standup is better than his. of course he would grapple the shit outta me but like come on. and cb sucked too miller was laying there for 2 rounds and he couldnt do a damn thing with it
Mayhem is a never has and never been
Ok, 1) GSP and Bisping are both top 3 of their divisions (GSP being #1 of WW, and Bisping being #3 of MW's), so their is no shame losing to those 2 guys. 2) The CB Dolloway fight was unfortunate, but there's no need to chastise the guy for losing a boring decision where a wrestler held him down for 3 rounds. 3) The guy is in a bad place right now, I think it's best to be more supportive than attacking presently please!
Dana white will more than likely regret his childish public persecution .. Of this dude… Concidering the on going investigation into the UFC 's monopolization of mixed martial arts … This public statement should have been read more carefully by their lawyers….. Because… Dana clearly stated… That dudes career is over . With the UFC…. What other shows r their in town buddy?…. Think about it… This ain't rocket science ……
Zuffa owns it all
Mayhem sucks. he beat a 45 year old sakuraba. why did he even get a UFC shot? Who has he beat? Robbie lawler 10 years ago? Tim Kennedy 8 years ago? He fights tomato cans. The jig is up. Go away miller…
What about Bigfoot getn a call up to the big leagues… After his worst performance… Ever to fight Cain…?… And then all the dumbass people blowin Cain smoke up everybody's ass….?.. Sayin he deserves a rematch… Can u explain that?… LOl
I like Mayhem, he's entertaining and all, but god damn did he talk a lot of shit, and looked like a bag of shit in the octagon once again. Prob won't tune in to see him fight again, but I'd still watch him on TV.

Mobile Nations and iMore to host... Talk Mobile 2013!
Android. BlackBerry. iOS. Windows Phone. Editors. Industry experts. You. Me. Us. -- The conversation begins Monday, June 3!
#TM13 stands for Talk Mobile 2013, an all-new, online event hosted by Mobile Nations -- including not only iMore, but Android Central, CrackBerry, and Windows Phone Central as well -- created with one goal in mind: to take our ongoing discussion of mobile to the next level.
Technology alone is not enough. Apple said that years ago, and they've been proven right. Mobile is no longer about the bits and atoms we hold in our hands, but what those bits and atoms can do to inform, inspire, and improve our daily lives. And that's just exactly what we're going to be exploring through Talk Mobile, together. From manufacturers to carriers, from social to personal, from gaming to enterprise, from around the world to inside our homes, we're going to get the conversation started not only about what matters most to the industry, but what matters most to us.
It begins on June 3. Mark your calendar, follow @talkmobile, and bookmark this landing page -- talkmobile2013.com. You'll be able to watch every video and read every word right here on iMore, but that page is going to collect them all for you in one convenient place. Our tech team has even built a brand new commenting system that'll let everyone, from every site, talk together, and highlight and promote the very best contributions.
To celebrate the kickoff we're throwing the tech party to end all tech parties on June 6 in NYC. Details on the party, and how you can enter to win a free trip for 2 to the party, are up on talkmobile2013.com.
Watch the trailer video above. Read the press release below. Enter the contest. Follow all the things. Then buckle up, we're in for one hell of a ride.
Mobile Nations launches Talk Mobile 2013, presented by BlackBerry
An industry-first online event that brings together the top smartphone experts and fans in meaningful conversations about mobile technology and how it affects our lives
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- (Marketwire - May 29, 2013) -- Mobile Nations, the leading online mobile news and community network -- Android Central, CrackBerry, iMore, and Windows Phone Central -- announced today that Talk Mobile, an online event spanning all of the Mobile Nations sites and presented by BlackBerry®, will launch on June 3, 2013.
Talk Mobile will bring together mobile industry experts, influencers, pundits, enthusiasts, and fans from around the world to engage in meaningful conversations about important topics in mobile today. A total of 50 Talk Mobile features will be published over the next several months. Each day's feature will simultaneously reach each Mobile Nations site, with Android, BlackBerry, iOS and Windows Phone communities each having an equal voice in the conversation.
"We have the largest, most knowledgeable, most passionate communities in mobile, but for most of the year we're all focused on our own, specific platforms," said Kevin Michaluk, Chief Media Officer of Mobile Nations. "Talk Mobile lets us take off those platform-specific hats and engage in real, in-depth, industry-wide discussion. That's why only Mobile Nations could do an event like Talk Mobile -- our sites are all biased by definition, but when we come together, the biases balance out, and we end up with the most amazing debates."
Covering ten highly relevant topics, Talk Mobile will address the issues facing modern platform makers and manufacturers, carriers and service providers, developers and designers, and power users and casual users alike. Topics range from mobile gaming to photography to social to security.
"Over the last decade, smartphones have grown from niche technology to mainstream reality," said Marcus Adolfsson, CEO of Mobile Nations. "We see that in our communities every day. It's not just about tech specs anymore, but about health, family, entertainment, creativity, and connectivity. There's a deeper conversation to be had about mobile and how it influences, enables, and affects our lives. That's why we're launching Talk Mobile."
Each Talk Mobile feature will start with a roundtable discussion moderated by Cali Lewis and John Pozadzides of GeekBeat.TV, with Mobile Nations' site editors Phil Nickinson, Kevin Michaluk, Rene Ritchie, and Daniel Rubino as panelists. The conversation will then be turned over to the community, where anyone and everyone can have their say, and the very best contributions will be featured. Talk Mobile 2013 begins on June, 3, 2013. The first week will cover mobile gaming, its threat to consoles, its social implications, its ability to scale, and its future. Readers can join in the conversation by visiting their favorite Mobile Nations site.
Talk Mobile launch party
To celebrate the kickoff, Mobile Nations will be hosting a Talk Mobile 2013 launch party on Thursday, June 6, 2013, in New York City. Admission will be free, but venue space is limited. For more information and to RSVP, visit http://talkmobile2013.eventbrite.com.

Mobile Nations and iMore to host... Talk Mobile 2013!
This sounds fantastic, can't wait. First website i go to in the morning.
Well done guys. Cheers!
Looks great!!!! Love MN, only sites I visit!!!
No offense but saying "good job" doesn't really mean much. Here's my reaction given that I really haven't seen anything yet:
I liked "Top Mobile" better. Other than it being some sort of contest or progressive round robin for phones where the weakest is eliminated each week, it sounds ok I guess. You're gonna "talk mobile" and debate 10 topics? Well...ok. Sounds more like the old mobile nations podcasts.
I get the move from tech specs to other (subjective) criteria but that could have been integrated as well. Interesting that it's presented by Blackberry. I suppose they're just happy to be in the conversation.
It's both!

Cardfan, your comment about BlackBerry seems that you think little of the company that brought smartphones to the market in the first place.
In 2013, BlackBerry have just as much to bring to the table as Apple would. Maybe even more, considering the recent overhaul.
Except they didn't. That was Palm. At least in the US. BB has always been more of a feature phone known for communication. The recent walk through the desert for them was needed but they're so far behind... It's not a knock what I said. BB is smart to support anything that keeps them in the conversation.
I think you'll really like what we're doing. I certainly hope so.

This should be good ! ;-)
Congratulations! I'm looking forward to reading it.
Everything looks Great! Looking forward to this... and I thought I'd have a quiet Summer. ;)
Been following all of you since my iPhone 3GS! Everyone always wonders how I stay so well informed.
I was almost right. I thought it would be "Talking Mobile."
Well, I was more interested in a really good Cuban sandwich. Which the guys found, but I didn't get any of. Oh well, we were pretty productive otherwise! Monday it'll all come together. :)
We owe you sandwiches!

Montreal bagels are perfect! It was to film the panel discussions that'll kick off each days conversation.

Matthew Kavanagh: From Twitter trending to the front page of The New York Times to public statements by the White House and the Pentagon, the Kony 2012 campaign has shown the power of social media to affect U.S. public debate – but what about the dangers of oversimplification?
Politics: It's About Identity, Stupid

"Truth or Consequence" – How Did You THINK It Was Going to End Up?
Name That Decade: the '00s, the Whatever Decade
Great pessimism during economic busts is as characteristically American as great optimism during boom times. The oh-ohs' whateverism is less fleeting and thus more dangerous. A culture of denial, disengagement, dissociation is dysfunctional. We need a culture of engagement and responsibility, even with all our traumas, distractions and high-tech toys.

Kloe Soderberg, a 5th Grader at St. Joseph Catholic Academy in Kenosha,
Is This Year's Winner
KENOSHA — Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen is proud to announce that this year's winner of the Wisconsin Missing Children's Day poster competition is Kloe Soderberg, a fifth grade student at St. Joseph Catholic Academy in Kenosha, where she was recognized this afternoon during a ceremony.
Attorney General Van Hollen, along with Principal Kerstin Santarelli, Academy President Robert Freund, teachers, students, Kenosha Mayor Keith G. Bosman and members of local law enforcement joined Kloe and her family as she accepted the award certificate and framed poster. Kloe also received a Barnes & Noble gift certificate. A photo from the ceremony is available here.
"I congratulate Kloe and all of the students across Wisconsin who created artwork for this year's contest," Attorney General Van Hollen said. "Child safety is a top priority at the Wisconsin Department of Justice, and I'm thankful to the many teachers, parents, caregivers and others who take this opportunity every year to engage their young people in this important conversation about personal safety, whether they're in the neighborhood park or at home on their computer."
With her poster winning the statewide contest, Kloe's creation represented Wisconsin in the national competition. The winner of the national contest will go to Washington, DC, later this month to attend the annual National Missing Children's Day Ceremony and to accept a certificate and U.S. savings bond.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) also provided each student at St. Joseph Catholic Academy with a Child Identification Kit as well as child safety and Internet safety information. Wisconsin's Clearinghouse for Missing & Exploited Children & Adults develops and coordinates the process for the statewide poster competition. Each state's Missing Children Clearinghouse submits the single winning state poster to the U.S. Department of Justice for final judging. One national poster contest winner is selected for the trip to Washington, DC.

The Facebook IPO will deposit somewhere between six and 20 billion dollars into cash. Facebook could ignore all the naysayers (about how this IPO is the most foolish in the history of IPOs) and just buy a huge position in Apple and see its stock appreciate.
But what will it do with US$10 Billion? Hopefully not buy more Instagrams, but we can be sure that some very smart people are already contemplating what to do with it. I propose they court the maker and inventor community and live up to their maxims about the "Hacker Way" and enable a new generation of innovative companies within their own walls — much like Google has done over the years.
If you read Connie Guglielmo's post on what Apple is secretly (or not so secretly) planning to do with its cash hoard of $100 billion, you'll see at the end a small graph that shows the top four companies with large cash stashes. It includes Apple, Microsoft, Google, and Cisco Systems, in that order. Facebook could hit within the top 10 in short order and will undoubtedly use those funds to increase profitability and avoid MySpace status.
Here are my suggestions:
- They could invest a chunk into TechShop and create one of these amazing makerspaces in every major city in America. These spaces are more than just modern-day wood and metal shops. The people who gather in them are often from the top software companies in the world. They are fusing hardware and software with new inventions. The cool Square credit card reader was rapidly prototyped there.
- Facebook could take the Andrew Carnegie approach and start creating public access makerspaces in libraries.
- Facebook could invest in Apple and create the iFace. Sorry, couldn't resist. Seriously, though, think about it — if Facebook and Apple partnered on some project around mobile. Yes, I realize they are tied into Microsoft. Or what about Amazon? I think we'll see FB making investments into other large companies in the near future. Investments in small startups, too, naturally, but where are the big profitable partnerships?
- The Make and DARPA project around public education and high schools.
- Do something with Edison Nation — the inventor community.
Facebook is about to become a bigger juggernaut. If they are smart, they'll parlay that cash position into something truly memorable.
Here is some additional data from TheStreet.com: Facebook's War Chest Will Be Game Changer.

A plan to make Idaho the first state to require students to take at least two credits online will officially go before the public for comment next week.
The state Board of Education said a 30-day comment period will start next Wednesday on the proposed graduation requirement.
"We'll give those to the board and if there are changes to be made, they'll be made," said board spokesman Mark Browning.
The online education requirement would start with the class of 2016 ? students who start high school next fall.
The board is expected to gather public comment through October and consider final approval of the online education rule in November, Browning said. The plan garnered heavy opposition at public hearings across Idaho this summer but still won initial approval from the board during a Sept. 9 special meeting.
The public comment period required after the board voted to advance the rule will not start until Oct. 5, Browning said. That's when the proposal will be published in a bulletin of state rules slated to go before lawmakers during the 2012 Idaho Legislature, which starts in January.
Schools nationwide offer online classes, but just three states ? Alabama, Florida and Michigan ? have adopted rules since 2006 to require online learning, according to the International Association of K-12 Online Learning in Washington.
The online rules vary from state to state, but Idaho would be the first to require two credits online. Proponents said these virtual classes will help save money and better prepare students for college, where many courses are online. However, opponents said they replace teachers with computers.
In Idaho, the state Board of Education crafted the online course requirements as part of new education changes that were signed into law earlier this year with backing from public schools chief Tom Luna and Gov. C.L. "Butch" Otter. Luna had wanted students to take up to eight online course credits, but that provision was ditched during the 2011 Idaho Legislature amid opposition from parents, teachers and some lawmakers.

Debunkers, those of us who are reporting significant changes in the location of the sun are well aware that it moves position throughout the year – that is precisely the point we are making.
When a person has lived in the same house for a decade (or two in my case) watching sunrise and sunset, they know exactly where to look for it throughout the seasons. Many are seeing the sun now visible through new windows - or missing from a window entirely where it had previously been visible at a specific time of year, every year. Porches and decks that never got a ray of sunshine - ever - are now receiving direct sunlight. We are not experts in astronomy but we are certainly capable of critical observation.
The phenomenon being observed by so many is that
houses and decks do not move but the position of the sun has
. The charts and measurements debunkers reference are simply failing to explain this.
Scientific discoveries happen because brilliant minds want to know more about an observed phenomenon. They must question and think outside the box and experiment to find out why something is happening the way it is. This is how old scientific models are discarded for new ones.
Instead of using stale Geology and Astronomy 101 information to disparage the abundance of empirical evidence being reported, why don't those of you who claim to be knowledgeable in the field seek to think outside the box and figure out what could be causing these sun changes?

Posted at: 11/22/2012 6:38 PM
(ABC 6 NEWS) -- The town of Grand Meadow has about 1,100 people; the high school has around 80 kids; and the number of state football titles for the community is zero, but that could all change come Friday.
"We're one game away," said head coach Gary Sloan. "The goal has not changed, we still don't feel like we've accomplished what we want to accomplish and we need to accomplish that this week."
The Superlarks rolled through the semifinals with a 61-6 hammering of South Ridge that got GM to the title game.
This week could be a little more challenging.
"Their defensive line, their defensive back, their linebackers blitz a lot," said junior quarterback Trenton Bleifus, "We just have to hold their defensive line and we'll be able to pass a lot."
"It might be a little bit more difficult to run the ball against this team, and if it is, we'll go to the passing game," said Sloan. "If we can get the running game going, we'll go with that. We really feel like we're pretty flexible and we're going to take whatever the team gives us."
It's not like Grand Meadow hasn't been in this game before. In fact, Brock Johnson, Bryce Benson, and Perry Stejskal's fathers all played together in the state title game in 1987, and just fell short of reaching their ultimate goal. That alone proves to be pretty good motivation for this year's team.
"It's more of something that's driving you, pushing you to work hard for that team, to get that state title," said senior Brock Johnson.
"He's kind of more quite, but I can definitely tell he wants us to play just as hard as they did," said tight end Bryce Benson, "It's kind of a cool thing to have your dads at the same game."
So it's now up to their sons to bring home the glory to Grand Meadow. And you can count on the entire town will be there to watch on Friday.
"It gives you that nice feeling in the bottom of your stomach when you look over to the side and you've got everyone in your entire town in the stands, just cheering and screaming for Grand Meadow," said Johnson.

Sophomore Ashton Green posted the game-winner in the second overtime period.
Sept. 16, 2011
CINCINNATI -- With a `golden goal' in the 108th minute, sophomore Ashton Green lifted the Musketeers to a 1-0 victory over Eastern Kentucky Friday evening at the XU Soccer Complex.
"If there was ever a game that this group deserved to win, it was tonight," said head coach Woody Sherwood. "Their performance, especially in the second half was the best of the season. We just need to do a better job with our final ball and put a few more shots on the frame. Our team has proven to be stingy giving up goals and once again we showed that."
Green finished a forward pass from junior Leslie Twehues from the corner of the penalty box to give the Musketeers the win in double-overtime. Green, Jessica Brooks, and Lauren Heap led the Musketeers with four shots each. XU out-shot EKU 21-6.
Defensively, XU was solid as it held EKU to just six shots with Katie Markesberry earning one save.
The Musketeers return to action Sunday as they host Austin Peay at 1 p.m. Sunday's game will be the inaugural live video stream of the season on GoXavier.com.

Children's Memorial Redevelopment: Public Meeting | A Recap | The City Process
The following is a reprint of the Alderman's Newsletter of July 12, 2012
Dear Friends,
The developer has notified me that he has completed the next version of the proposed plan for the Children's Memorial site. We are announcing a town hall meeting to give the developer the opportunity to show these plans to you.
CMH Community Development
Town Hall Meeting
Thursday, July 26
6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
the DePaul Student Center, Rm 120
2250 N. Sheffield
I urge you to attend not only so that you can see the new plans for the site from the developer, but most importantly, so I can hear your input.
In addition to July 26th's large community meeting, I am requiring that the developer hold a series of meetings with every community group.
A Recap
In preparation for these meetings, let's review what we've done thus far, and what will be happening next.
Back in September at the first large community meeting, we strove to understand the impact Children's had on the neighborhood today to give us the foundation to compare it to the impact of any future proposal. Children's Memorial Hospital reported to us:
- Over 1.5 million people were on the hospital property per year
- Over 12,500 trucks made deliveries to the hospital
- Over 1,300 cars parked in the garage at one time each day
- Children's baseline traffic study estimated that Children's alone was responsible for 30% of the traffic around the site
- Some of our local businesses, including popular neighborhood institutions, could lose between 7% and 50% of their business when the hospital leaves
Second, we discussed the site's relationship to our neighborhood. To sum up that presentation:
- The site contains older buildings which are important to the community and contribute to the neighborhood's distinctiveness
- The site is at the crossroads of the Lincoln Park Community, at the heart of a destination area for theater, music, and of course, DePaul University
- The site is directly adjacent to beautiful, low-rise residential neighborhoods and historic districts
Third, we discussed our goals for the site and our values. The HOK study, done three years ago, identified the following community priorities. The new development should:
- Respect the existing neighborhood
- Create a distinct mixed-use place, including housing for a variety of income levels
- Promote a multi-modal transportation network
- Support sustainable development
- Ensure continued community engagement
In December, 2011, the developer, McCaffery Interests, rolled out a conceptual plan for the site. I required the developer to hold a series of community meetings to discuss the tentative site plans and then revise those plans based on feedback.
The City Process
McCaffery Interests has told me that it intends to begin the city review process by filing an application for rezoning of the property on July 18, 2012. Residents within 250 feet of the site will receive a notice of this filing, as required by city ordinance. This filing does not in any way preclude changes to the plan. Indeed, the City has told me that, due to the complexity of the site, it will take several months to conduct its review. This is more than enough time, in my view, for our neighborhood to review the plan ourselves and have input.
Let Us Know What You Think – Attend the Community Meeting July 26
This plan must preserve what we value about Lincoln Park, while creating an exciting new crossroads for our community. I want to make sure that our review is thorough and considered, and at the same time, that we proceed in a structured manner so we get the job done.
My first commitment is to you. We will have as many meetings as necessary to get this right.
For more information, visit our website, which already archives presentations and videos from the September, 2011 and December, 2011 community meetings.

Religious School • KM Kids • B'nai Mitzvah • Westside Chai • Adult Studies • Jewish Resources
Programs (including Shabbat Programming)
Dear Religious School Families,
I am delighted to begin my third year as the Director of Education at Kehillat Ma'arav. Over the summer, we revisited some of our curriculum and materials in order to keep up with all of the innovative programming that is available, keeping our KM Religious School on the cutting edge of Jewish education.
You have chosen Kehillat Ma'arav to be the place where your children learn Jewish values and Torah. We take your trust in us very seriously, and acknowledge our responsibility in ensuring that Religious School be a safe and inviting place filled with meaningful experiences and Jewish learning. Our dynamic and engaging team of educators continues to go above and beyond what is expected of them, allowing our children to thrive in a loving Jewish environment. Each of our teachers is available to communicate with you regarding your children and their specific needs.
Our dedicated Rabbi and Cantor are very much involved and support our Religious School as well as the entire KM staff who work tirelessly behind the scenes. As a result of this committed team, we are able to provide our students and families with all the wonderful activities and programs planned for the year.
Kehillat Ma'arav strives to help our children develop positive attitudes toward being Jewish. One goal is to enhance their Jewish identity to not only their synagogue but to further enhance their Jewish identity into the home, by working with the entire family. We believe that through cooperation, family supporting school and school supporting family, we can teach our children and families that Jewish living and values are an important part of their lives.
Our Education Committee, headed up by Andrew Lippman and Allison Goldberger play a monumental role in all our schools efforts. We would like to encourage our parents to join our Education Committee, as we believe that it is as partners that we will be successful in instilling a love of Judaism for our children.
2014-2015 Additions!
- We are very excited to introduce our new Joint Community High School program, Westside Chai" for 8th-10th graders. KM is partnering with Adat Shalom and Mishkon Tephilo for a true Westside Chai experience. Sunday, October 12 is our Pool Party Kick-Off Event at Sophie Goldberger's house (5:30-8:00 pm). Please contact the synagogue office (310) 829-0566 to get the Goldberger's address. Our new "Westside Chai" will be meeting at KM for the first Semester beginning on Tuesday, October 14th from 6:00-8:00 pm. Weekly dinner and snacks are included. Westside Chai High School program is open to all teens on the Westside.
- This year we are introducing Shabbat B'Yachad, a family Shabbat program offered six times a year on Shabbat mornings and Friday nights. The entire family will engage in Kabbalat Shabbat services, Shabbat morning services, family programs and activities, and festive Shabbat dinners and lunches.
I feel privileged and blessed to be part of such a warm community of friends, with supportive families who share the same mission and vision for our Religious School. Once again, thank you for entrusting us with your children's Jewish education.
Please remember Religious School and High School registration is underway… be sure to fill out your forms and return them to the KM office.
The Religious School would like to wish you a year filled with the wealth of Jewish teachings and traditions.
Sharone Weizman, M.Ed.
Director of Education

Metamorphosis 1
Most insects (87%) undergo complete metamorphosis. It begins when a larva (such as a caterpillar) builds a cocoon around itself. Then its body inside disintegrates into a thick, pulp-like liquid. Days, weeks, or months later, the adult insect emerges—one that is dramatically different, amazingly capable, and often beautiful, such as a butterfly. Food, habitat, and behavior of the larva also differ drastically from those of the adult.
Evolution claims that:
Mutations slightly alter an organism's genetic material which later generations inherit. On rare occasions the alterations are beneficial, enabling the offspring to reproduce more of themselves and the improved genetic material. [Supposedly] after many generations, dramatic changes, even new organs, accumulate.
If this were true, each organism must be able to reproduce and must be superior, in some sense, to its ancestors. How then could metamorphosis evolve in many stages (a)?
a. "Certainly it [metamorphosis] demonstrates the absurdity of invoking natural selection by successive mutation to explain such an obviously, yet subtly programmed, process. Why on that basis, should the ancestral insect have survived the mutations that projected it into the chrysalid stage, from which it could not yet develop into an adult? Where was natural selection then? How could pre-programmed metamorphosis, in insect, amphibian or crustacean, ever have evolved by chance? Indeed, how could development have evolved piece-meal? The ball is in the evolutionist's court, tangled in a net of inexplicability." Michael Pitman, Adam and Evolution (London: Rider & Company, 1984), p. 71.
"Apart from the many difficulties in understanding how such a radical change [as metamorphosis] comes about, there is the larger question of why it should happen? Can there really be an evolutionary advantage in constructing one sort of organism and then throwing it away and starting again?" Taylor, p. 177.
"There is no evidence of how such a remarkable plan of life [metamorphosis] ever came about ..." Peter Farb, The Insects, Life Nature Library (New York: Time Incorporated, 1962), p. 56.
"Does any one really believe that the ancestors of butterflies were as adults just masses of pulp enveloped in cases, having no means of procuring external nourishment? If not, it is for the evolutionist to explain how the process of metamorphosis became intercalated in the life-history of the caterpillar." Douglas Dewar, The Transformist Illusion (Murfreesboro, Tennessee: DeHoff Publications, 1957), p. 213.
Finding how metamorphosis evolved in one species, genus, family, order, or class is just the first question. Because many different larva-to-adult patterns exist, many other explanations are also needed.

Boyfriend 'kicked off' over pictures of his privates posted on Facebook
Posted: February 01, 2013|
FURIOUS boyfriend Karl Smith threatened to burn down his lover's home after she posted photographs of his private parts on Facebook.
He was desperate to get a mobile phone back from her so he could make sure the X-rated pictures were deleted to save his blushes, Grimsby magistrates heard.
But he fell foul of the police during an angry confrontation at the police station when he demanded the phone be handed back to him after wrongly believing she was in custody.
Smith, 24, of Macaulay Street, Grimsby, admitted threatening to damage windows belonging to Katie Bakes on January 28.
John Harris, prosecuting, said Smith went to Grimsby Police Station demanding to see Miss Bakes, whom he believed was in custody, because he wanted to retrieve a mobile phone from her.
He caused a disturbance and Stephen Johnson, who was with him, tried to calm him down.
He claimed his girlfriend had been posting pictures of his private parts on Facebook and he wanted to remove the offending photographs.
Smith was asked to leave but shouted: "If you don't get my phone back, I'm going round there to put her windows in and burn her house down."
He later admitted "kicking off" and "acting like a kid" because he was angry.
Andrew Havery, mitigating, said Smith lost his temper and made "foolish comments" because Miss Bakes had posted inappropriate photographs on Facebook.
Sentence was adjourned until March because Smith faces other matters.

New director named for Duke's Nasher Museum of Art
New director named for Duke's Nasher Museum of Art
From staff reports
DURHAM – Sarah Schroth, the Nancy Hanks senior curator at Duke University's Nasher Museum of Art, has been named the museum's new director, the university announced Thursday.
Schroth has served as the museum's interim director since November, and she succeeds Kimerly Rorschach as the director. Rorschach left Duke to become president of the Seattle Art Museum.
An 11-person committee conducted an international search for the position. The Nasher Museum opened in 2005, and each year, more than 100,000 people visit the 65,000-square-foot museum, according to the release.
"Sarah is one of the most respected and admired curators in the country," said Duke President Richard Brodhead in a statement. "With her appointment as director, we can be certain of the Nasher's continued rise as an arts force on campus, in the region, and nationally."
Schroth, 62, is an expert on Spanish art of the 17th century and joined what was then named the Duke University Museum of Art in 1995. She will report to Provost Peter Lange, the university's senior academic officer.
"She has worked with me three times as interim director, on each occasion providing excellent leadership while doing two jobs," Lange said in a statement. "Now that she will be the director, I am anticipating continued outstanding and innovative programming in this next phase of the Nasher's development into one of the pre-eminent university museums in the country and the world."
During her time at Duke, Schroth has organized shows ranging from old masters to contemporary art, including the award-winning 2008 exhibition, "El Greco to Velázquez: Art during the Reign of Philip III." As a result of that exhibition, which she organized with the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, Schroth was named knight-commander in the Order of Isabel la Católica by King Juan Carlos I of Spain.
Schroth told The Herald-Sun that the "El Greco to Velázquez" exhibit was one of the highlights during her past 18 years with the museum.
"It was really just incredible that everyone just pitched in and made it happen," she said. "It was really a miraculous event, that we we got those things here in Durham."
She also has collaborated on exhibitions with the Museo del Prado in Madrid, the Seattle Art Museum and others, has published widely and has worked closely with Duke faculty to shape their projects into exhibitions, according to the release.
Before coming to Duke, Schroth worked at the Kimbell Museum in Fort Worth, Texas; the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.; and the Ackland Art Museum at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. She majored in art history at Mary Washington College and, after working at the Atlanta College of Art and living in Spain, earned her Ph.D. from the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University.
"We need to get down to it and really figure out the best way to celebrate the 10th anniversary of this amazing institution," Schroth said, making reference to Nasher Museum's 10th anniversary coming up in 2015. "I think I have to replace the curator that I was, so I'll be searching for another curator, that's on my mind. And I've got some long-term-view plans.
"They have to do with integrating Nasher into Duke's mission about transforming the arts at Duke and at teaching the humanities in a new and exciting way. I want the Nasher to play a part in both of those missions, and I think we can."

"I find the monthly lectures to be stimulating for my scientific thinking. Much of what I bring back to my students is the excitement I get from the enthusiasm of the other attendees and presenters."
-- 2011-2012 Teacher Participant
The Whitehead Seminar Series for High School Teachers
Entering its twenty-fourth season, Whitehead Institute's Seminar Series for High School Teachers offers educators the opportunity to explore topics at the forefront of biomedical research and incorporate new ideas into their classrooms.
The series, which attracts 60-80 high school teachers each year, begins in October of each academic year. Seminars are conducted on the first Monday of each month through June. Sessions begin with a scientific lecture and conclude with a working dinner, allowing participants and Whitehead scientists to share ideas and discuss a range of issues affecting science education.
Integral to the success of the program is the teacher-scientist partnership in which interested teachers are paired with Whitehead partners—young scientists who attend each session and serve as a resource for the teacher throughout the academic year. Partners answer questions, share their expertise, and even visit schools to meet with students. Over the years, participating teachers have found these partnerships to be invaluable relationships.
The first seminar of the 2014-2015 season was held Monday, October 6, in Whitehead's McGovern Auditorium. Each session begins promptly at 4:15 pm.
In Whitehead Member Hazel Sive's lab, zebrafish are used as a tool to study embryonic brain development. The brain on the right is a normal control, while the brain on the left has reduced expression of the gene aldoaa, which causes a malformation of the brain ventricle (stained red) .

"Politics is the profession whereby the inevitable is made to seem a great human achievement" - Quentin Crisp
Thanks for the update Al! The whole remains thing is just disturbing....
"I dream of the day when you can go to a drive through, purchase alcohol, tobacco, and bullets, and use them all before you get home" -- Dogbert
Its very disturbing to think that people are actually dumping remains in the park but I have to admit to not being the least bit surprised. As fanatical as many of us are over the parks, I have to admit to thinking more than once about how I'd like my final resting place to be in the parks somewhere.
Rivers of america is another popular dumping ground also. as a night custodial cast member myself, I've heard mention of the ashes alot on the haunted mansion.
i've heard from some also that get freaked out by the ashes, and refuse to work on the ride for that very reason. it's usually a light grey color, and teeth can be found in some of them also. looking it up online, it is possible to have teeth in the ashes it seems.
so maybe the more reputable places try to pulverize it as best as they can, and the others just throw it in the plastic bag or urn then go from there?Although the term "ashes" is generally used to refer to cremated remains, that term is incorrect. The end product of the cremation process results in the body being reduced to skeletal remains (bones, teeth and calcium). These skeletal remains are reduced further in size by pulverization to allow the cremated remains to be placed in a container or urn
also, i'm curious about the mention of graffiti backstage. so far, i've only seen one place that had it, the cm break room near the pizza port on some booths in it. where are the others you mention? i've tried my hardest to find backstage graffiti, the only graffiti i've found was on stage, in public areas like restrooms, people scratching stuff into paint and metal in space mountain, etc.
if it's that much of a bother, send me a list of the locations and i'll see what I can do about it. if it's scratched in, I can't do much except phone in a report, but marker/paint tagging can be phoned into security, documented, then clean up can begin.

Just wanted to correct a little misconception: The Lilly Belle was not "Walt's private car." Walt never saw the Lilly Belle. He only knew it as car 106, Grand Canyon, and it was as open and public as any other car on the line.
Wow, awesome article Al.
I'm a little saddened that one of my favorite attractions at WDW (Philharmagic) may not be coming to DCA. Although I still think it fits better in the Fantasyland Theatre or ToonTown area.
And Ewww ... I think think the remains thing is the best excuse for NOT wanting to ride Pirates every meet. (right Rixter ) I just can't imagine people not realizing that while the remains for people might be there for a day, they aren't going to stay there. They'd be better off dumping them in the river. At least with that you know they have at least a decade. LOL.
While I've joked about this before, I can't say I would actually go thru with it, nor would I condone my spouse doing so either.
I know Disney has a policy where they generally try and refrain from arresting guests, however, it may be time to re-examine this policy. From an outsider's view, it would appear that the actions (some) guests are taking with regard to vandalism in the parks, are becoming more and more frequent and more costly to maintaining the park. It bothers me to see and hear about such acts and I really think Disney should become more agressive at how they deal with these things so as to prevent further and potentially more serious incidents from occuring.
Okay, so it sounds a little creepy, but there might actually be a few who would buy it. And, I wouldn't be surprised if there's been a few who have done it already, without Disney's approval.
I may be the only one but....
Adventures by Disney-Hollywood and Disneyland! Sign Me Up!!
That should be a good anniversary present next year
"If you build it right, they will come." - Bob Iger
"I'm not a literary person. As far as realism is concerned, you can find dirt anyplace you look for it. I'm one of those optimists. There's always a rainbow." - Walt Disney
"I don't care about critics. Critics take themselves too seriously. They think the only way to be noticed and to be the smart guy is to pick and find fault with things. It's the public I'm making pictures for." - Walt Disney
Thank you Al. The Adventures tour looks fun. Probably a bit to pricey for me though. Farewell Maliboomer, your scream covers will not be missed.
While that back stage trip sounds great, I have a hard time justifying the money. I have planned a 12 day trip to WDW for $4,000 including all expenses and staying at the Moderate hotels. It is really hard to justify $4,000 for a couple to go on this 5 day trip in socal.
I think that may be one of the main reasons Disney Adventures is having such a difficult time.
As for the remains, there is a market for that, but it would be really hard to justify putting people inside the sidewalks of the par or in any other location.
And as a disney fan, I can picture spending 1 day in the disney park and then being vacumed up and spenfing the rest of eternity in the LA landfill... doesn't sound quite as romantic

these discs dont work with softmods so close this thread nao.
Any updates on how to get this working?? GC Backup Loader 0.2 doesnt work. Tried almost everything, screen goes green and wii reboots...
these discs dont work with softmods so close this thread nao.
As someone else said, this is a gamecube disc, so you would have to boot it using gc backup launcher (also means you can only use a gamecube controller). The other option is to extract all the internal iso's containing the roms using MultiGame Iso Creator. Once you get your roms, you can select the ones you like and place them on an SD card and play them using wii homebrew emulators. Or you could repackage all the roms into an ISO for the Wii if their respective emulators support DVD loading.
Hope this is of use to anyone.

IF you want to play the gamecube disks you need a cMIOS.

Release: 10/13/2013
New Mexico 1, Air Force 0 (Match Report)
Colorado Springs, Colo. – New Mexico senior Elba Holguin beat Kelly Stambaugh from the center of the box 10 minutes into the second half, and the Lobos put away Air Force 1-0 in Colorado Springs. The win pushed the Lobos to 6-8-1 overall, but 4-1 in the Mountain West.
Air Force, which was playing its second match since the athletics has resumed at the service academies, is now 2-8-1 overall and 1-2 in the Mountain West. The win coupled with San Diego State's loss to Wyoming and Fresno State's win over Boise State puts UNM, San Diego State and Fresno State in a first place tie with 12 points, although UNM and San Diego State are both 4-1, and Fresno State is 4-2. Fresno State's two losses are to UNM and San Diego State.
New Mexico got the only goal it would need at the 55:09 mark when Madisyn Olguin sent a ball across to Elba Holguin, who settled it and shot one to the right of a diving Kelly Stambaugh. New Mexico, which for the third straight game did not allow a shot in the first half, needed just one save from Cassie Ulrich, but it was a big one, making a nice stop on Ally Swift's hard shot with just over 15 minutes left in the contest.
Ulrich made that lone save in posting her sixth shutout of the season.
New Mexico return home for a Friday night showdown with Nevada at 5 p.m. at the UNM Soccer Complex.

*The Lobos are now .500 at home (3-3-1) and .500 on the road (3-3).
*Elba Holguin's only other career goal was also a game-winner in a 1-0 win, as she scored in double overtime to defeat New Mexico State last year.
*The assist for Madisyn Olguin was the first of her career.

By Donna MilesAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6, 2005 The war on terror is focused on Islamic radicalism, not Islam, President Bush emphasized today as he called on Muslim leaders around the world to denounce what he called the terrorists' "murderous ideology."
Extremists who claim to murder under the banner of Islam "are not just enemies of America or enemies of Iraq," the president said during a major speech here before the National Endowment for Democracy. "They are the enemies of Islam and the enemies of humanity."
Many Muslim scholars already have publicly condemned terrorism, citing Chapter 5, Verse 32 of the Koran, Bush noted. That passage states that killing an innocent human being is like killing all humanity, just as saving the life of one person is like saving all humanity, the president explained.
Similarly, Bush noted that an imam in the United Arab Emirates said after the July 7 terror attacks in London that whoever carried the attacks out "is not a Muslim, nor a religious person."
Bush praised the United States' Muslim allies around the world who are defying Islamic extremism.
"Everywhere we have engaged in the fight against extremism, Muslim allies have stood up and joined the fight, becoming partners in a vital cause," he said. Among them are Afghan troops in combat against Taliban remnants and Iraqi soldiers sacrificing to defeat al Qaeda, he said.
Bush urged other Islamic leaders around the world to take a stand against extremism.
"The time has come for all responsible Islamic leaders to join in denouncing an ideology that exploits Islam for political ends and defiles a noble faith," he said.
The terrorists' ideology -- whether it's called "Islamic radicalism" or "militant jihadism" or "Islamofascism" or something else -- is very different from the religion of Islam, Bush said. "This form of radicalism exploits Islam to serve a violent, political vision," he said.
It's a vision of a totalitarian empire that "denies all political and religious freedom" and will use any means necessary to achieve it, including terrorism, subversion and insurgency, he said.
In following that vision, extremists "distort the idea of jihad into a call for terrorist murder against Christians and Jews and Hindus, and also against Muslims from other traditions, who they regard as heretics," Bush said.
And, as often as not, it's innocent Muslims who fall victim to these radicals, he added.
Bush noted the irony in Osama bin Laden declaring himself a leader for the Muslim masses. "Bin Laden said his own role is to tell Muslims, quote, 'what is good for them and what is not,'" the president said.
"And what this man, who grew up in wealth and privilege, considers good for poor Muslims is that they become killers and suicide bombers," Bush said. "He assures them that this is the road to paradise, though he never offers to go along for the ride."

Great fit!
The fit is great! I'm 40 + and they fit well even though the shorts are junior sizes. There is even room in the hips and the lower waist is perfect. The length is good also. Nothing at all to complain about!
Fit: Feels true to size

Your comment has been posted.
Depends on what you are looking for...............
Nice soft fabric, really loose fit around waist - 7 was HUGE, ordered a 3 - fit great but too tight to be active in - settled on a 5 - great to wear over swimsuit bottoms. But, if you are surfing or doing other water sports.....these are not the shorts for you. When they get wet, they cling tightly to your legs but slip off your waist. I was constantly tugging at them. I will use them to garden in (pretty expensive gardening shorts) and maybe wear to and from the pool. I am 5"4" 120 pounds. Size 4 in womens and I have narrow hips.
Durham NC
I wanted something with just a bit more coverage than the bottoms that came with my swim top. These turned out to be the perfect solution at a great price. Look good & fit great.
Chicago, IL
I weigh about 127 and Im 5"4....size 7 fits perfect on me. Love these shorts!
West Palm Beach, FL
too tight,too see through
looked like a great pair of cargo boardshorts...white material was flimsy,see-through and sizing was off. At 5/1,107# a 4 was way too tight but a 6 would have been way too big in the waist,back they go.

Fit: Feels too small
Great fit
Great fit! I'm not thin...and I'm almost 40. I like coverage that flatters. These do both.

Fit is good. I went off sizing chart and other reviews and got a good fit. Fabric isnt super comfortable when wet and can be clingy. But overall a cute boardshort!

Great board shorts I'm 43, 5'4" and 120lbs. I ordered a 9 at first and they were to big:(.
Get an alert when we add new styles of O''Neill! Simply sign up and we'll notify you.
Jack O'Neill began surfing in 1952, before functional surf apparel was invented. While working for the Army Air Corps, O'Neill discovered neoprene foam in a DC-3 airplane. He then combined the neoprene carpeting with duct tape to create the first neoprene wetsuit.
Demand for O'Neill's neoprene wetsuits grew rapidly and he began a business selling the O'Neill wetsuits out of his garage. By 1980, he was a leader in the beach apparel industry with a thriving business. Since then, O'Neill™ has become a widely recognized and respected brand in the surf industry, continually creating new and innovative products. In addition to O'Neill wetsuits, they carry O'Neill boardshorts, O'Neill dresses, O'Neill hats, O'Neill rash guards, O'Neill swimsuits, O'Neill water shoes, O'Neill sandals, O'Neill life jackets and O'Neill t-shirts.
In addition to his business success, O'Neill also created a non-profit foundation for kids. O'Neill developed the O'Neill Sea Odyssey Program: a free, educational cruise that introduces kids to the microbiology of the Monterey Bay Marine Sanctuary, beginning at Jack O'Neill's doorstep.

Watching Sin...
Quote jackspaniel: If it wasn't for the power and the money, Brad would drop Victoria like a lead balloon!! Vicki should send him back to pool cleaning where he was when he first came to GC. IMHO
LOL Brads come along way since those days. With this reliquary thing, he become a murder and two timer. I can't believe Victoria fell for that beloved crap. 5 minutes before she was ready to show him the door.
From the time JT and the professor were looking for Colleen, JT was constantly leaving messages for Brad. After Sharon called him with the news, you would think he would call JT back to find out what was going on. Sharon didn't give much information over the phone.
Brad has an agenda....but so does Victor...1st Jack then Brad!
I loved Victoria's line to Brad about " I bet you have Sharon on speed dial!" If Nikki has picked up on the vibes between Sharon and Brad, and now Victor has seen something...it won't be long....and it won't be pretty!
Quote EmpressOperaDiva: As far as David Chow... Or however you spell it... I still dont trust him as far as I could through him... Which isn't very far... I could probably push him further... So he and Sharon is a no-go for me... As far as Brad, he is being a hot head lately... He's on this BIG power-trip. I think as far as hugging Sharon in the hospital he wasn'tthinking... He just wanted to see his daughter... I think he should have asked someone else to stay at Colleen's bedside... Someone that knows Colleen better... But I think in time Sharon and Brad will get back togther, and J.T isn;t leaving... he's in the credits for goodness sakes... SO... They will put him with Victoria. It makes sense. As long as Adrian is allowed to stay ... with Colleen. Please, oh, please writing GODS brink back MAC for Kevin! PLEASE!
i couldnt agree more
i really hope colleen and adrian have a future together
Quote glowery: When Brad knows how Vicki feels about him and Sharon why does he keep hugging her or holding her hand, or other affectionate type touching when he knows Vicki could walk in on them at any given time? It is like he wants to keep stringing sharon along by any means necessary and doesn't care what his wife thinks or feels.
I know Brad felt greatful to Sharon for staying with Colleen, but the fact is he shouldn't have asked her to. It should have been a member of her family or someone closer to her than Sharon. Did he ever once consider how Sharon would feel seeing Colleen hooked to those machines after her spending so much time in the hospital with Cassie?
Brad is not going to willingly leave Vicki and the whole power package that comes with it, but he wants to keep Sharon close and keep her emotions all stirred up where he is concerned.
I wish Sharon would tell him, "You know what, you had your chance, now just leave me along." then she could move on to David Chow
It's because Brad is a guy. Nuff said!
It is because Brad is a GUY... nuff said (No offense to the XY gender on this msg board!)

Comments about Jos. A. Bank Traditional Double-Breasted Wool Blazer- Sizes 44-52:
The staff at your Lafayette store was terrific. The double breasted blazer did not fit me so they exchanged it for a single breastd coat. I had an important meeting the next day and they sold and tailored a pair of grey slacks for me that day. They helped me coordinate a dress shirt and tie which I owned to wear and sent me off very well dressed. They could not have been more helpful. My new outfit looks great and fits perfectly.Thanks,Don Smith
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
