Brian Stann Believes He Beat Bisping At UFC 152, Says Dana Told Him So | UFC NEWS
"[I'm] disappointed obviously. Dana came back after the fight and told me he thought I won the fight. Of course I am going to be biased, I was in there and I thought I won. I have to take an analytical view. I knew it was going to be close, but I thought I won the fight… I think I could still fight the good contenders, I don't think I go back to fighting the up and comers," he said. "I think if I get two big wins in a row, I can get right back to a fight that means something. There are a lot of us to who have gotten there, fall down and then come back. That is what I have to do."
Taking to the UFC on FUEL TV post-fight special, UFC middleweight fighter, Brian Stann discussed his most recent outing against Michael Bisping at UFC 152 this past weekend.
Bisping was able to outpoint the Atlanta based fighter to earn a unanimous decision victory during the main card bout. However, Stann revealed that UFC president Dana White, along with himself, think the decision should have gone the other way.
What say you Penn Nation? Did Stann deserve the W?

Dana has been a bit off his rocker lately. Maybe he's been taking some meds or something. You surely did not win that fight, Stann.
Yeah….I like Stann and would've like to see him win but there was no way he won. Dana needs to keep his big mouth shut because it stirs shit up when he says oh this person should have won instead of that. That's why you gotta finish fights. Can't rely on judges anyway
Dana is probably Bipolar, and all the coke he is sniffing (may be with Chuck lol), is disturbing his mind. Dana, don't do drugs lol
Me and Dana must have watched different fights. Stann fought a good fight, but Bisbing clearly won.
I'm a fan, but, unfortunately, the judges were right here. I thought Stann edged out Bisping in the first, but the Count took two and three. Much respect for the positive attitude though. He'll be back.
Is this some sort of joke?Bisping landed way more punches than Stann.He clearly caused more damage Stann's eyes were marked up.Bisping got takedowns.I mean what fight was dana watching?No way in hell Stann won that fight it was'nt even close.
Yeah,I don't think it was close ether.bisbing won hands down.
I think Dana might have said, "U won the first" and Stann being punched alot in that fight, his head wasnt cleared out yet and thought Dana said "U won the fight".. Cause there is no that thinks Stann wont that fight.. Ill give him the first but the second and third were easily Bisping..
I think if it wasn't for the take downs he would of won. Work on that back d!
Cant stand Bisping but he won the fight Brian, props to you though the guy thought you were gonna be a cake walk,way to bring the fight!
Stann is a nice guy and a good fighter, but like it or not, Bisping won that fight.
no doubt that Bisping won that fight, it wasn´t even that close…
Stann needs to work on his take down defense….
I did not see the fight. But the post fight presser sure looked like Stann got pummled.
Dana must have been trying to find a bubble for a spirit level when he was meant to have been watching bisping v stann!!there is no way on earth that stann could possibly think he won that fight,iv actually lost a little respect for stann as he is proving to be a lying bastard with this comment!bisping schooled him from bell to bell,only thing he did good was land 1 big shot which bisping comfortably recovered from and mauled him thereafter.stann has surprised me with that comment!
no doubt that Bisping won that fight, it wasn´t even close…
dana is just saying this because he knows he could make big money of a match between bisping and weidman he dosent wana say hey bisping went out there and beat stann at his own game bisping went toe to toe with stann alot of times within the 3 rounds he beat him in the clinch and had takedowns the only thing stann did was land 1 big shot.. he wants to make another big fight before a silva match up!!!
More than anything, though, Bisping has done enough to merit a title shot. His win over Brian Stann at UFC 152 proved he can take a lot of punishment — the Brit was rocked in the first round and hit with big shots throughout the fight — and still implement a high-tempo, aggressive game plan and come out on top.
He is 23-4 and his four losses have been to Rashad Evans, Dan Henderson, Wanderlei Silva and Chael Sonnen, who are all either former champions or No. 1 contenders. Yes, he was brutally knocked out by Henderson, but if you take into consideration that many people scored the Evans, Silva and Sonnen fights in Bisping's favour, his resume is that much more impressive
and say he got that win sonnen witch over 50% of people think he did he would be on a 6 fight wining streak
How any IDIOT could compare Bispings record (RESUME) of bestings mostly "CANS" to TRUE legengs of the sport who fought all the best i will never understand. That was the most retarded thing I have ever seen written on heree. Bisping has lost to every high caliber fighter he has ever faced. Bisping is a "CAN" crusher. You think Bisping deserves a title shot with one win in row. Wins over Jorge rivera, mayhem miller, Dan Miller woudln't earn any fighter in any MMA organizationa title shot. Bisping is apillow handed back peddler. H eruns away eevrtime he gets hit. If he wouldn't have runa way when Stann caught him he would have been KO'd. Weidman, Vitor, Lombard, Boetsch, and all the other TRUE top 10 fighters would beat the hell out of bisping. Bisping dropped out of Boetsch fight to avoid having to fight Lombard because Stann got injured. Bisping "so called" knee injury was the most minor of injuries ever. there isn't one MMA fighter that doesn't have a small piece loose cartlidge in their knee but instead Bisping rants nonstop about so called big knee surgury which anyone taht knows about knee surgerys will tell you what Bisping was in and out of clinic in an hour. I simple half hour procedure with almost ZERO down time from training. UFC wants to make a money fight is only reason Bisping will be granted a titleshotand it probably won't be agaoinst Silva. they and everyone else knows Silva would beat Bisping bgrains in so bad it would be the worst one-sided beatdown since GSP/Fitch. UFC knows Silva is retiring and they want the GSP/Silva fight and then he's done. UFC wants to throw Bisping in with a very favorable matchup like they always have
I wished he hadn't won, but he did. Let him fight A.S. and get his ass whooped so he can STFU for a "wee bit"…
T. Rex arms! He pretty much got outclassed again. Tough guy but I think he lost no doubt about it.
I was rooting for Stann, and i can honestly say Bisping won…
One look at both their faces afterward told the story. Dana has lost his marbles. Silva is fighting bonnar? Seriously. Terrible management.
If you don't like it either stop watching… Or deal with it. It's that simple man
Don't like Bisping …but he won the fight straight away no question
Bisping matches up well with silva he has the cardio to go hard for 5 full rounds has the speed to hang with silva.. bisping also has black belt level bjj hes got to be the most underrated ground fighter around!!!! he will also 100% take silva down and bisping has powerful ground and pound…. I still think silva would take him but the more and more i see of bisping the more i think he has a chance… listen he never got outclassed by evans or sonnen, or wanderlie.. he beat the second most dangerous guy standing in the middelweight division if he can go toe to toe with stann most of the rounds he could handle a punch from silva maybe not a head kick but lol
Stann is a retard if he thought he won that fight. Dana is a bigger retard and should know better.
^^ You should find a better expression than retard . That is a pretty harsh way to describe somebody. People on here may have a family member or friend who suffers from that. I also makes you look not so smart and like you have a limited vocabulary.
I hate Bisping, I want him to lose every fight.
But he won that one clear as day.
I also thought he won
I had it tied going into round three and the takedown sealed the deal. Stann is a good dude but he lost. Judges got it right. I don't know if Dana said that cause he usually comes out and says that stuff
No doubt that Bisping won the fight. Stann did a good job but no, you did not win that fight, as you said it yourself, you're being biased.
How can anyone say Bisping was fighting Stann's game (meaning the stand up)? Bisping is a champion kickboxer. He has always had excellent boxing skills. When he won against Chael (cough cough) he even showed he had excellent ground defence (maybe not takedown defense tho). The guy outclassed Stann in all respects in that fight. Maybe Dana was smoking some of Joe's new sheeeeeet.
Much respect to Stann, but I only gave him the 1st round. Bisping won the rest, thus winning the fight. Stann will be back though no doubt. Still a contender. Just needs to work better against the takedown.
I think Stann should listen to the judges and keep moving forward statements like this question his integraty he knows he lost move on!
his face received more damaged than bisping
Judges got this one right; Bisping won no question about that.
Sorry stan im a big fan of yours but i thought u lost every round, the first was close but bisbing lit ur face up pretty good and stole the rounds with the takedowns.
Stan Easily won the first, but "the count" won the 2nd and 3rd because of all his little gay takedowns that he specifically said he would NOT DO, which i think is BS considering he specifically said he wanted to keep it standing and then after the first when he saw stann was gonna beat his ass standing up he started to take it to the ground, just BS if you ask me
Lol bisping mauled stann. I think danas been hangingout taking LSD with Joe Rogan and picking matches high.
Uncle DW is all over the place lately…he calls fans are "moron" WTF?
Well to be fair most of the fans in MMA are complete fucking idiots.
dana white is getting annoying, michael bisping won the fight. takedowns surely count for british fighters too? michael bisping was very accurate with his punches, dana white sucks dick.
Bisping still has to get by Weidman and that's not going to be easy.
lmao, yeah and vitor beat jon jones right ?
stan had his face busted to shit and bisping slammed him down a bunch of times.
i hate bisping and was expecting stann to murder him on that fight but bisping was the better man that night. i 'd like to see a rematch though..
there r so many haters out there is it cos he is a brit that u yanks hate him? he won the fight easily i was really impressed by the way he could take stann down at will and then standing up he out punched a puncher who only has 1 punch….. think stann needs to work on his game
You have to be kidding me. Brian you looked horrible and out of your league. After that fight you may as well give it up cause there is no way you will be able to beat a top 10 guy a, and if they rate you in the top 10 it is wrong. You looked slow and made Bisbing look good. He should also have to fight a top guy to, and win cause he never has fought one and won the fight. Dana has been feeding certain fighters fights they can win and avoiding ones they will loose.(right bisbing) All these guys who want title fights never fight top guys and then get title shots and get their butts kicked and look like they don't belong, cause they don't!
Fighting is about never giving up even when it look like there is no hope. You obviously do not fight at all because you would know that and telling a fighter to give up because they lost a fight? You need to go watch other sport because MMA is not your cup of tea…
Ps stop acting like bisping is a bad fighter, Stann lost to him yes but it was a good fight against a top contended that you MMA noobs thank is terrible because they have no clue what they are talking about
I like stann, but bisbing must of done more damage than I realised if stann thought he one. He may need an MRI
I like stann, but bisbing must have hit him harder than I realised. Think stann may need a MRI

Black-Gold Post-Game 9/19
Because I was writing a game story, rather than just watching like I would during a training camp scrimmage, I had to look at the Black-Gold game tonight for the big picture.
And in the big picture, I think it's safe to say Pittsburgh has two of the top centers in the world even in the absence of Sidney Crosby.
Evgeni Malkin and Jordan Staal each scored two goals as Malkin's Gold team beat Staal's Black team 3-2 tonight. Paul Martin also scored. Brad Thiessen stopped all 10 shots he faced.
After the game, Malkin reported no problems with his knee, which was surgically repaired in February.
Staal said he lost a side bet with Malkin on the outcome of the game and now he'll have to untie Malkin's skates after practice tomorrow.
Crosby was in the building despite not being able to play because he has not yet been cleared for contact.
Steve Sullivan left the game early, but assistant coach Todd Reirden said his departure was precautionary.
I think you could hear audible gasps from the suite where Penguins brass sat when Kris Letang lost an edge and took out Marc-Andre Fleury in the first period and Paul Martin went into the boards during an icing race with Tyler Kennedy in the third. The last thing anyone wants out of this type of game is an injury.
Attendance was estimated (by me) somewhere north of 7,500 and the fans were treated to a game played a good pace with a modicum of physical play. It looked a lot like a standard NHL exhibition game, which, if you bought a ticket, is probably all you could hope for.
I'm curious to see who else stood out to any of you who were at the game tonight or watched it on television. Please share your thoughts in the comments.
One final thought. The Penguins have a cool new feature in-game this year where they ask fans in the stands to Tweet their song requests to the team. I vow I will request 911 is a Joke by Public Enemy every game until it is played.
I have no idea why that song popped into my head when they announced that requests were being taken. I guess I just think it would be funny to hear it at a hockey game.
Bye for now,

The vintage of 2008 was the third consecutive drought year in the Central Coast with total rainfall amounting to less than seven inches. Additionally, we had a very hard freeze in January followed by very cool weather all the way to bloom in May. The end result was record low yields in Chardonnay primarily due to cool, windy weather during set. The only silver lining to this vintage was very mild weather throughout the summer with typical Monterey County fog and winds for much of June, July and August. We made a conscious decision to pick all of our Chardonnay fruit at riper levels, especially the French clones 76, 95 and 96 to further enrich the flavor of Riverstone Chardonnay. In 2008, that meant waiting until October 1st for the first pick of our French clone Chardonnay in Blocks 2 and 4 at 25.2° Brix and concluding harvest on October 23rd with the final pick of California clone Chardonnay at 26.1° Brix.
The 2008 vintage marks the twenty-second year of production of our Riverstone Chardonnay, from our vineyards in the Arroyo Seco region of Monterey County. Each year, starting in 1995, we have experimented with and have incorporated higher percentages of traditional Burgundian production techniques into Riverstone, until the desired complexity and end-results were achieved (reaching 60% in 2000). The result is a complex and nuanced Chardonnay with an abundance of Arroyo Seco fruit, with subtle barrel fermentation and malolactic character. The vines are grown primarily on Elder loam soils underlain by "riverstones" deposited over thousands of years from the Arroyo Seco River, allowing a four-foot rooting zone that keeps the vines' vegetative growth and fruit in balance. Additionally, the cool climate and winds of the Salinas Valley extend the growing season and retain the natural grape acids and intense varietal character of the Chardonnay.
|Riverstone, Arroyo Seco AVA
|100% Chardonnay
|Harvest Dates:
|October 1st to October 23rd, 2008
|Brix at Harvest:
|25.8° average
|Total Acidity:
|0.70 g/100 ml
|pH at Bottling:
|13.9% by volume
|100% barrel fermented in combination of American, Hungarian and French oak at 55 to 65° F.
Malolactic fermentation in barrel of 50% of the Chardonnay
|8 to 10 months in combination of American, Hungarian and French Oak Barrels from new to fourth fill
Winemaker's Comments
The 2008 J. Lohr Estates Riverstone Chardonnay has a very youthful straw yellow color. The aromas are of ripe bosc pear, fuji apple, lime and honeysuckle combined with the perfumed vanilla and toasty oak bouquet from the barrel fermentation, malolactic fermentation and sur lie aging creating an elegant Chardonnay from Monterey's Arroyo Seco AVA. The flavors are very clean with ripe pear, subtle floral notes and vanilla toastiness, producing layers of complexity with an excellent balance of fresh fruit acidity and palate-weight. This wine is ideal for pairing with oven-roasted chicken, Dungeness crab or grilled salmon.
Jeff Meier, winemaker

Good, cheap eats in Seattle?
I will be visiting Seattle shortly and am interested in recommendations for any type of restaurant that won't stress the wallet. Ideas?
The beauty of this board is that there are so many suggestions. I would scroll through and look at some postings that might interest you.
We have fantastic Vietnamese, wonderful salumerias, and tons of great fish, all of them might be considered cheep. It would be helpful to know what type of cuisine/dining experience you are interested in and what price range for you won't "stress the wallet".
This type of question is asked often and it always seems to me, that the people asking haven't spent time doing the basic research. I know when I travel I read the local boards quiet thoroughly and all of my questions are usually answered without me ever having to ask.
Szechuan Noodle bowl on 8th Ave. in the International District. I recommend the vegetable dumplings with spicy sauce and the onion pancake. You will not be disappointed!
Cedars on 43rd ST. (not the one on Brooklyn – also good, but not as cheap) in the University District. Great Falafel sandwiches for $2.50. There are quite a few cheap eats in the University District since they are catering to students. Check out Tom Thai – best Thai food in the city – but be prepared for a wait – they only seat 8 or 10 at a time.
For morning pastries, Besalu in Ballard is the only place to go. My brother was a pastry chef for years and he was extremely impressed when I took him here for breakfast one morning.
Brasa has a happy hour that has a very excellent half price bar menu with drink purchase. Nice ambience, try the fried oysters.
There's an article about this in the Stimes this weekend (january 08 - I know -late to the post)...posted: not really "cheap" per se but...good / high quality food on a budget

a Pond Viewer so you can immediately see microorganisms and
other material in a sample of pond water. It can be made
from wood scraps, Plexiglas, rubber tubing, nuts and bolts.
can vary. The one illustrated here is 9" x 12".
You will need two pieces of Plexiglas (cut at many hardware
stores) at least 2" larger in each dimension that
the viewing area you want. Select pieces of wood that are
at least 3/8" x 3/4" to minimize splitting. You
will need two pieces for each vertical side and two for
the bottom of the Viewer, since the wood makes a partial
frame on the outside of each piece of Plexiglas.
The top
of your Viewer stays open for scooping water. The whole thing
is assembled like a sandwich. The sides and bottom are sealed
using a continuous length of 1/2"
diameter plastic tubing between the two pieces of Plexiglas.
Drill the wooden pieces and the Plexiglas and run small bolts
through those holes. Three to five washers (depending on how
flexible the tubing is) should be used between the Plexiglas
pieces so the bolts can be tightened evenly.
the sandwich is not difficult, but here are a few useful
When you
have completed this window-like apparatus, attach a string
at the top corner bolts to allow you and your students to
take samples at various depths. You could bolt a thermometer
to the Viewer as well. Your Viewer will provide many opportunities
for observation, drawing, discussion and other forms of data
collection. Plan to look at the water in the Viewer, and
also remove the water samples for observation using microscopes
and hand lenses.

The New Jersey Audubon Society (NJAS) and the state Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) have decided that the Weis Ecology Center property located off Snake Den Road will be allowed to return to its natural state. NJAS has formally applied to make a gift of the 160-acre parcel to the DEP's Division of Parks and Forestry, which the state is prepared to accept, contingent upon the decommissioning of facilities on the site.
DEP spokesman Larry Hajna told Suburban Trends that the decision to accept the property from NJAS on those terms was made "sometime in the spring," although he didn't offer a specific date.
Hajna's Oct. 3 statement confirmed that the officials from NJAS and the DEP had been on a walk-through of the property several months ago.
"Following a thorough site inspection," Hajna said, "we determined that the buildings and related infrastructure were not safe for continued visitor use. The area will be restored to natural habitat."
Hikers and outdoor enthusiasts will still be able to access trails in Norvin Green State Park via Weis, according to Hajna.
"We plan to retain the two existing parking lots and use the bulk of the property as passive open space and trails," he added.

Olympus to the depths of the Underworld, this book takes you on an unforgettable journey through all the major myths born in ancient Greece and Rome, such as Achilles's involvement in the Trojan War; Pluto's kidnapping of the beautiful Proserpina; and the slaying of Medusa by Perseus, the heroic demi-god.

By Samantha L. QuigleyAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, March 7, 2006 Winning the war on terrorism is U.S. Pacific Command's highest priority, the command's leader told the Senate Armed Services Committee today.
To achieve that goal, the command is striving to eliminate the violence that now threatens the people and stability of the Asia-Pacific region and, more importantly, to transform at-risk environments, Navy Adm. William J. Fallon said.
"We have in place key elements to succeed in advancing U.S. security interests and enhancing regional stability - vibrant alliances, opportunities for new partnerships, combat ready and agile forces, and committed soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines to lead our efforts," Fallon said in a prepared statement.
"Southeast Asia remains the (command's) focal point in the war on terror," Fallon said. "The southern Philippines, Mindano and the Sulu archipelago remain a sanctuary, training and recruiting ground for terrorist organizations."
He said the command's Joint Interagency Task Force West coordinated military-to-military training, information sharing, law enforcement training and infrastructure development projects throughout the theater.
"In a major success, the Interagency Fusion Center in Jakarta, Indonesia, provided significant assistance to the raid on an industrial-scale drug lab outside Jakarta," Fallon said. The raid resulted in the largest seizure of drugs in Indonesian history and was among the largest in the world.
The command is also working to mature joint and combined warfighting capability and readiness. "Fundamental to success in the war on terror and continued stability in the Asia-Pacific region is our joint and combined warfighting capability and readiness," Fallon said. "As virtually every operation and activity is conducted jointly and in concert with allies, it is important that we train to operate more efficiently as a multinational team."
To that end, Fallon said the revised Pacific Command training plan is specifically designed to further develop joint and combined warfighting capability and advance security cooperation while more effectively using resources. Another goal in redesigning the training plan was to maximize what he described as "scarce training dollars" while minimizing stress on the force.
The command streamlined training exercises and leveraged forces in theater, he said. "Through the routine interaction created by our exercises, we expect to reduce existing interoperability barriers, increase military capacity and confidence, and enhance the likelihood of an effective regional response to future crises," he said.
The command still requires improvements in anti-submarine warfare, intelligence collection and persistent surveillance, command and control, and airlift and sealift capabilities, he said.
The command is also focusing on making sure that operational plans are credible, the admiral said. "Operational plans from the basis for military requirements in peacetime and initial response in war," Fallon said. "At PACOM, we bring to the planning process a culture that challenges assumptions, analyzes with rigor, and demands refinement when variables change."
The command also is working to advance regional security cooperation from many countries in its area of responsibility. An example is the command's enlisted leadership development program that helps regional militaries enhance the professionalism and capacity of these militaries' enlisted forces.
Fallon spoke about relations with the various countries of the region:
Japan's alliance with the U.S. is undergoing changes to ensure its relevance in the long term.
Republic of Korea, whose alliance with the U.S. is sound and continues to form the foundation to peace and security on the Korean peninsula. "The U.S.-ROK alliance must remain adaptable in light of the changing security environment, including unconventional threats, China's military modernization, and the potential for reconciliation between the Koreas," he said.
Australia and U.S. military forces coordinate security cooperation and counterterrorism activities in the Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia. Australia also plays a leading role in security operations in East Timor, the Regional Assistance Mission to the Solomon Islands, and maritime security in the Pacific Islands.
Republic of the Philippines, challenged by recent threats to stability, appears committed to democratic practices and rules of law. "I am encouraged by the continued support and involvement of the Philippine government in significant regional events," Fallon said.
Thailand is Treaty Ally of the United States and maintains a robust military relationship with the United States, including the annual Cobra Gold exercise.
India and the United States are working together to resolve issues of mutual interest such as maritime security, counterterrorism and disaster relief.
Singapore and the United States signed a Strategic Framework Agreement in July recognizing Singapore as a major security cooperation partner.
Indonesia plays a unique strategic role in Southeast Asia and the Muslim world. Located in close proximity to strategic trade routes, the world's most populous Muslim nation is critically important to security in the Pacific.
China's rapidly expanding economy, growing demand for energy and clear aim to assume a more prominent role in regional and international affairs is having a major impact on the Asia-Pacific security environment.
Taiwan's ability to defend itself is the focus of the command's military engagement. "We have seen strong interest by the Taiwan military in strengthening their defensive capabilities," he added.
Mongolia, a staunch ally fighting terror around the world, is striving to establish a regional center for peacekeeping training. "Khaan Quest, a PACOM-Mongolia peacekeeping exercise, will serve as a capstone to this year's peacekeeping training efforts," he said.
Malaysia's government has supported the "Eyes in the Sky" initiative to increase combined aerial surveillance over the Strait of Malacca and stood up an agency like the U.S. Coast Guard called the Malaysia Maritime Enforcement Agency.
Vietnam's military-to-military relationship with the United States is progressing in a "modest but positive" direction, Fallon said.
New Zealand has been a strong supporter of the war on terrorism, but its 1986 legislative ban of nuclear powered ships in its waters hampers improved military-to-military relations.
"We (also) continue to reinforce our special relationship with the three 'freely associated' states - the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Island, and the Republic of Palau," Fallon said.
These improved capabilities, in at least two cases, also have reduced the impact on the local populace in the Republic of Korea and Japan. In Korea, the overall number of U.S. military personnel will decrease, Fallon said.
In Japan the changes, courtesy of the Japan Alliance Transformation and Realignment negotiations, include transfer of U.S. carrier tactical aviation from Atsugi Naval Air Facility to Marine Corps Air Facility Iwakuni (Japan), and collocation of U.S. and Japanese air command and control at Yokota Air Base, he said.
The negotiations, nearing completion with an agreed implementation plan expected by March 30, also provide for reduction of the Marine footprint on Okinawa by about 7,000 Marines. Those servicemembers would be relocated to Guam, Fallon said.

Hey everyone here we are at another Friday and a team wod is in line for today. We are going back to one of favorite baselines with a twist!
Wod:Team FGB
Teams of 2 athletes. Everyone will be at a station and it will be for five rounds. Only one person can be working at a time. All five rounds will be unbroken since there will be rest while the partner works.
5 Rounds
Wall Ball (20)(14)
Box Jumps (20″)
Push Press (75)(55)
Rower (Calories)
Note: An example would be 1 athlete is at the wall ball station and the other is at the SDHP station. When the wod starts the 1st athlete will complete his 1 minute of work then the second person will start his work while the first person moves to station 3 and so on. There is no rest after the row as each individual athlete will rest while the other one is working.

Letters to the Editor: 08.23.12
Cesare A. Giannetti
'A Soldier's Life' a good read
I would like to thank Murphy Givens for editing and publishing the book "A Soldiers Life." The book is a memoir of West Point Army Officer Daniel P. Whiting.
As pointed out in the book's preface Lieutenant Colonel Whiting wasn't famous or rich. What makes this story and his career so intriguing is that he was a devoted family man and a respected and successful Army officer whose tours included the Seminole Wars, Mexican War, the siege of Ft. Brown, as well as the start of the Civil War. Whiting also is credited with the earliest known view of Corpus Christi, a topographical drawing he did of the Army camp tents on the beach of downtown Corpus Christi.
As a recently retired chief warrant officer of the Army for over 23 years, I have also experienced several significant military/world events during my military career. Sometimes it can be difficult to explain in conversation with someone where I've been or what I've seen. I bet Lt. Col. Whiting would get it.
I was fortunate enough to attend the reading of this book at the Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History when the book came out last year. I even had Jim Moloney and Murphy Givens sign my copy.
I have read my share of books throughout my life, but none like this one. Daniel Powers Whiting's memoir taught me quite a bit about American history, all while providing insightful, humorous, and touching excerpts of his life.

Council, downtown development
The discretion the City Council is showing in how they use surplus funds should be considered an indiscretion.
They used surplus funds to do the Aquarius Street project on the island even though the bond we voted on was to have it in a different location. And the surplus money spent on the Aquarius connector road over and above the bond that was approved in 2008 is unlikely to generate nearly as much investment, and PRIVATE investment at that, as what doing the Chaparral project is likely to generate. Can you say "property taxes"?

Iraq helping Iran skirt sanctions
RE: New York Times article Aug. 18 "U.S. says Iraqis helping Iran to skirt sanctions"
According to the story, a network of Iraq financial institutions and oil smuggling operations has provided Iran with a crucial flow of dollars at a time when sanctions are squeezing their economy.
Well isn't that just one big ol' slap in the face for the United States of America! That's how Iraq thanks our people for all the blood our fighting forces shed, not to mention the billions ($806,216,427,000 and still rising) of American dollars wasted. Now eight months after we left Iraq, people in their banking system are circumventing our sanctions and helping Iran while Iraqi officials do nothing.
When are the people who run our great country going to learn, you don't feed the hand that bites you! Ten years in Iraq — for what? How many years for Afghanistan?

It might be time to look at other options for your career path.
This could mean embarking on a new career or self-employment.
Starting your own business is a dream of many who never had an opportunity until becoming unemployed. You could start your dream business, buy an existing one or enlist in a franchise program.
If you've lost your job through no fault of your own, are age 45 and older, and are interested in starting your own business, DEED's Project Gate II Program can help.
Project GATE II (Growing America Through Entrepreneurship) consultants can train you in the fundamentals of starting and managing your own small business, evaluate the potential of your proposed business, guide you through the steps of business planning, and help put you on the path to success.
Going into business for yourself has an enviable advantage in that the only person who can fire you is yourself. But self employment is not for everyone.
An absolute requirement of the approach is that you will have to become an entrepreneur. You will have to find and nurture clients, manage business partners and staff, network, research, learn new skills and be a self-starter. Self-discipline is a necessity.
On the whole, the traits needed for exploring these options sound a lot like the activity involved in finding a job, don't they? Halfway through a job search you might decide to buy or start a business, grow one or become a consultant.
The leap toward consulting from job hunting isn't all that much of a stretch, especially since many job seekers consult while they look for jobs. Some even stop trying to find a job because they have become successful consultants and like the flexibility. They sometimes even surpass their previous salaries and can log off early for a game of tennis, a bike ride or family needs.
Millions of Americans have found some satisfaction and success by going off on their own. It is still the American dream. It is not easy. It is not without real challenges, such as the cost of health insurance. Still, in a time when it can seem like no one will hire you, there is one person who can hire you — yourself. It may be a time to go for it.
If starting your own business appeals to you, it's best to seek some expert guidance.
DEED's business consultants have got you covered at most any stage with expert advice and analysis to help you avoid — or recover from — costly mistakes. Get help from our experts.

This restaurant doesn't belong on the UES, but I'm so glad it's there. The interior design is gorgeous, and the food is super tasty. Apps and Entrees are a good value and also the portions are easy to share with groups. Definitely recommend this for a fun, hip spot unlike the other restaurants in the area.

The best. It's amazing
Posted by Simone D. on 07/06/2012
So we went on a Friday, there's a DJ, it's loud....like "can't hear your friend next to you" loud. Trust me, I like loud music, I like dance music, but I don't want to dine to it. So there's three of us, it's not crowded. We ask for a table, the host brings us to a table and asks if it's ok. I notice a door next to one of the benches we'll be sitting on and inquire if that door will be in use during our meal. If so we would prefer (one of the many) open tables in the back. We are assured it will not be in use...it was not a group hallucination...then we are repeatedly abused during our mediocre meal by various waitstaff coming and going thru said door. The food was very meh...the papaya salad tasted like they spilled a cup of sugar in it, even the hot sauce wasn't hot. The apps were overly sweet (corn fritters, crispy eggplant). The drunken man noodles were dry, the Jaiya chicken dish was just ok. Even if we didn't have the door debacle I couldn't recommend it based on the food alone. The service was good, it's pretty, it's dark.....but you need a seeing eye dog for the bathroom. If you don't like traditional Thai spicy then go for it.
Posted by AlyssaB on 04/27/2012
The one thing we left wondering tonight was, was the service really that slow and poor, or were they trying to keep us seated at our table longer just to make the restaurant look crowded? When we arrived we were told there was a 20 minute wait. We happily waited and were seated within range. When we got to our table, we passed 4 empty tables on the way back (this place isn't huge either). It took 15 minutes for a server to come to us once seated for our drink order, but we ordered everything at once. We ordered a salad and the meatballs as appetizers, which took another 25 minutes to come out. The salad was great, but the meatballs (alegedly made with beef) tasted like rubber cement. My husbands noodle dish was pretty tasty, although very spicy. I had an eggplant shrimp dish that was also tasty. (Rice is extra.) The portion sizes of the entrees weren't that substantial. Maybe had I ordered rice too, it would have filled me up more. The vibe was good with a live DJ and the decor was unique for a local UES place. The food was about average for the price tag, but the service and hype of this place is definitely it's downfall. Having visited Thailand myself, I was not impressed.
Posted by Lizzy on 04/10/2012
I have been excited for this new Thai place to open for quite some time now, and it was worth the wait! The ambiance is very cool (industrial zen), and the water feature is a nice touch. The food was all very tasty, and the waiter was attentive. Welcome to the neighborhood!
Posted by Dre on 04/01/2012
First impression upon entering this new spot in the neighborhood was of the cool, downtown asian-contemporary design vibe, water features and all. Loved that. The staff is attentive, polite, and knowledgeable of the menu. This spot just opened 2 weeks ago, and they are still waiting on their liquor license (only downfall for now, we were not the only ones disappointed we wouldn't e having a cocktail, but life goes on, and they'll have it soon). The food was delicious. We are still talking about it today. The duck learn was delish, crispy, minty, not greasy (though a bit salty, but not enough to put us off). Scallops special with curry paste and jasmine was light and flavorful. Basil beef (sub from minced chicken) was the least impressive but still delicious. Given the limited supply of ambience and good food in this neighborhood, usually forcing us I travel all the way downtown, this is a fantastic new addition, and we will certainly be going back. Can't wait for the liquor license and dj on weekends!

Greetings everyone!
Well, the title primarily says it all. Essentially I am looking for some software that would allow me to change the pitch, timbre, frequency, vibrato, tone, anything and everything in regards to the voice. I am not adept at programming, one day when I have spare time lol, but I hope that someone here will be able to help me with this request.
Something that would allow one to change the gender, species { alien, fairy, leprechaun, etc }, tone, and pitch of ones voice, either through sliders or numerical inputs would rock. Also, the ability to use it for Skype or video recording software would be nice too.
Hopefully this post is not too disjointed.

I wish I was more educated with how Drew's particular homeopathic remedies work because it seems like they are aggrevating him more now. We were much better at giving him his "emotional dropper" last month. (Let me tell you, this thing is wonderful. Two drops and 5 minutes and then peace.) It's almost empty so until we get another one, I've got to use it sparingly.
Some of the support remedies are for some tough stuff: clostridia, metals, vaccines. So, that leads me to believe that his recent meltdowns are for a reason...detox. The ingredients on the clostridia clear remedy clearly state "clostridia difficile". Eeek. Just keep remembering that the potentcy should spark the immune system to fight back. Again, hence the meltdowns. I've really got to double up on the emotional dropper.
We start our 2nd round of clearing packets tomorrow which should also lead to craziness. They include all of the vaccines. Super EEEK. I will have to keep up with his reactions!
So, hubby worked on the young coconut kefir (YCK) juice and cheese..... We think we let it ferment too long. I tasted the smallest amount and truly almost died. I couldn't shove a cookie and chips in my mouth fast enough to get rid of that taste. HOWEVER, we shall try again. Hubby thought it was supposed to ferment for 72 hrs. I said 36. Who was right?? Who do you think? ME. So, we'll do it again and find some way to swallow it down. I'm determined to drink it too. If I can't do the diet with Drew, the least I can do is drink YCK. Click here for instructions on how to make it. If you're interested in the Body Ecology book, you can purchase it here.
Everywhere that I looked, the Body Ecology Kefir Starter was on back order; however, I finally found some on Amazon. If you'd like to order some, click here.
And, in case you're interested, here are some benefits to the young coconut kefir:
From the Kefir.net website:
- Easily digested, it cleanses the intestines, provides beneficial bacteria
and yeast, vitamins and minerals, and complete proteins.
- Because kefir is such a balanced and nourishing food, it contributes to a healthy immune system and has been used to help patients suffering from AIDS, chronic fatigue syndrome, herpes, and cancer.
- Its tranquilizing effect on the nervous system has benefited many who suffer from sleep disorders, depression, and ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder).
- The regular use of kefir can help relieve all intestinal disorders, promote bowel movement, reduce flatulence and create a healthier digestive system.
- In addition, its cleansing effect on the whole body helps to establish a balanced
inner ecosystem for optimum health and longevity.
- Kefir can also help eliminate unhealthy food cravings by making the body more nourished and balanced. Its excellent nutritional content offers healing and
health-maintenance benefits to people in every type of condition.
- In addition to beneficial bacteria and yeast, kefir contains minerals and
essential amino acids that help the body with healing and maintenance functions.
- The complete proteins in kefir are partially digested and therefore more easily
utilized by the body.
- Tryptophan, one of the essential amino acids abundant in
kefir, is well known for its relaxing effect on the nervous system.
- Because kefir also offers an abundance of calcium and magnesium, which are also
important minerals for a healthy nervous system, kefir in the diet can have a
particularly profound calming effect on the nerves.
- Kefir's ample supply of phosphorus, the second most abundant mineral in our bodies, helps utilize carbohydrates, fats, and proteins for cell growth, maintenance and energy.
- Kefir is rich in Vitamin B12, B1, and Vitamin K. It is an excellent source
of biotin, a B Vitamin which aids the body's assimilation of other B Vitamins,
such as folic acid, pantothenic acid, and B12. The numerous benefits of
maintaining adequate B vitamin intake range from regulation of the kidneys,
liver and nervous system to helping relieve skin disorders, boost energy and
promote longevity.
More facts and benefits from bedrokcommunity.org
- Coconut water is more nutritious than whole milk, it has no casein and a
good balance of magnesium and calcium.
- Rich in Vitamin C Acts as a natural diuretic and helps cleanse the liver and kidneys.
- Reduces problems for infants helps with GERDS, failure to thrive and other
intestinal disorders
- Other digestive problems such as indigestion, colitis, gastric ulcers, and diarrhea,
Antioxidant, scavenging many types of destructive free radicals and protecting hemoglobin from nitrite-induced oxidation
- Chelating properties the coconut water contains "gold: and "silver" and sulphurated proteins which is crucial to detox mercury and other heavy metals out of the cells and membranes, also it makes a certain "tension on the surface" which solves the heavy into a solution.
- Also it has certain fatty acids and sulfur holded amino acids to attach to the mercury.

- Thomas Sowell made a good point on use of the commerce clause:
The power to regulate indirect effects is not a slippery slope. It is the disastrous loss of freedom that lies at the bottom of a slippery slope.
People – with some justification – are so numb to 'slippery-slope' arguments that perhaps they can't recognize when we've already slid down one. The people who think (or, as I maintain, pretend to think) that 'regulate interstate commerce' means 'pass any law whatsoever about anything that may have an indirect effect on commerce that could in principle be interstate' might not realize that my complaint isn't that they're taking us down a path to fascism, it's that they're already fascists.
- Foseti, Statistical analysis is not science. True enough. It's what you do with the statistical analysis that makes it science (or not). The real significance of this point is that a lot of the people who end up relying heavily on statistics (such as in medicine, the subject of the article he linked to) don't really know much about statistics or have the philosophical grounding to interpret them reasonably. They basically do 'studies' for which they know they'll have to put a pretty dress on the numbers at the end (for which, often, they'll just hire some masters-degree type statistician assistant). This can at times give such fields a cargo-cult aspect to them; they've dressed their study up in statistics, so it must be science. It's a problem.
- Nick Gillespie, like me, noticed that Steven Chu could get away with the exact same thing that Wall Street is considered to have caused a 'crisis' doing.
- I appear to have flagged this Borepatch post due to finding it noteworthy that we both appear to share….fond memories of "Mirielle", the girl from those "French In Action" videos.
- Penelope Trunk on when to leave grad school off your resume. Obviously doesn't make sense in certain fields, but hard to deny there is some merit to the logic. The real problem is that when I disparage and warn people away from grad school it's hard to convince people I'm being sincere that it's not worth it, rather than engaging in some sort of weirdly zero-sum self-serving prevent-defense a la 'I got one and I don't want others to get one' (which wouldn't accomplish anything for me anyway, but nevermind).
- Barry Ritholtz is still being a retard about the Volcker Rule:
You'd think after such a calamitous economic fall, there'd be a strong consensus on reinforcing the protections that keep us out of harm's way. But in some powerful corners […]
Dude: in order to be saying something intelligent, you'd need to make, allude to, reference, or at least suggest the existence of an actual argument that the Volcker Rule would be a 'protection' that would 'keep us out of harm's way'. Instead it's just assumed, because, why?, because it's a regulation. I don't know why this grates on me so much though, because let's face it, virtually all laws and regulations are supported using the same type of 'logic'.
- David Lowery from Camper van Beethoven is very interesting on the subject of music economics. Via Dr. Frank. This is a debate I try to follow mostly because I want to do the right thing and actually pay musicians I like, but I don't quite know what the right thing is, and even if I did, this desire runs up against my ignorance/laziness. For example I wanted to buy the new Brendan Benson album, almost got it on iTunes, then I thought 'hmm maybe buying from his website direct would get him a higher %?' (this is a total guess, hell if I know), so I went to his website, tried to buy it, but turns out you need PayPal (? can't I just give him a credit card #?), I haven't used my PayPal account in like 8 years, and when I had finally gotten my password hinted back to me etc., it turns out my account's been frozen or some such, I have to re-confirm a bank account, give stool samples, etc., etc. Long story short I still don't have the Brendan Benson album. But I bet it's good.
- Streetwise Professor on credit risk and CVA-linked capital rules. Still digesting it, but I do share his concern at the end:
Moreover, I am downright frightened of basing derivatives capital requirements on CVA, or any market-price based measure. It is individually rational for banks to price using CVA, but tying capital charges to this measure will almost certainly lead to procyclical capital charges that are highly correlated across major financial institutions. That is a very bad-and very scary-idea.
Not only that but my hunch is that counterparty-risk / CVA remediation trades will be the Next Big Thing when it comes to 'financial innovation' and the creation of opaque, scary three-letter-acronym financial products. Indeed, it has basically already happened – as has made the news, at least one bank is paying their employees with synthetic mezz CVA exposure…and you thought vanilla CDOs were complicated…
- Yet more belated discussion of the Posner/Weyl 'financial FDA' stuff; John Cochrane is good. (Via Marginal Revolution). Don Boudreaux is pithy. I had felt kind of guilty for not actually reading the full Posner/Weyl paper that spawned this silly idea, but now I feel relief; from what I'm seeing of it in these responses, it appears to be even dumber than I'd guessed.
- Robin Hanson on Death Of A Salesman, which people are suddenly talking about in the blogosphere for some reason that I'll probably figure out from context in a day or two:
On capitalism, the play might hold critiques of failing to save for hard times, or of success based on who you know, good looks, and likability. But these are not intrinsic to, or even obviously correlated with, capitalism. […] This seems to me a common situation – things said to be critiques of capitalism are often just critiques of humanity. Humans vie selfishly and self-deludedly for status. Some succeed, while others fail. The struggle, and the failures, aren't pretty. Yes capitalism inherits this ugliness, but then so does any other system with humans.
The reason for this puzzle is simple, and I've stated it several times before: There is no such thing as "capitalism". An "ism", as usually understood throughout the rest of the English language, would be a belief system and/or specific well-defined arrangement of some sort, but there is simply no such "ism".involving "capital" (or something) to which one could meaningfully attach the label "capitalism". Instead, "capitalism" is simply the term applied to – basically – freedom (may I give Joe X in exchange for Joe giving me Y? yes or no? yes? that's "capitalism"!) by people who don't like freedom for one reason or another. An obvious byproduct of this basic fact is that unpleasant features of human society are attributed to "capitalism" by the term's/epithet's users; this is easy to do and hard to rebut since, again, "capitalism" doesn't exist as a coherent "ism", just as an epithet.

If you want to make capitalism into an "ism" you can sum it up with "governments should enforce and respect private contracts".
Plenty of people will explicitly object to that idea.
Viewing it just as "freedom" is incomplete.
I think that the "Capretz Method" was to find a smoking hot chick to star in the series. Kept me watching for 30+ episodes. ;-)

Joel 3:14 reads - "Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision." Bryan Davis, one of the volunteers working with the drama, "Cavern of Choices," at the White Gravel Mines in Minford, said last year 1,250 people attended the drama, and of those who attended, 106 people made professions of faith.
"For years the mines were used for some really bad stuff. People would go out there and party and carry on. There was a lot of drinking and drugs," Davis said. "A local family, the Marting family from out in Minford, purchased the mines a few years ago. They cleaned it up, made it safe. They even ran electrical through the mines. It's pretty amazing. And they wanted to use it for good, something that would benefit the community."
"Young people and adults from several area churches have come together. There is a drama, called 'The Cavern of Choices,' and basically there are several scenes set up inside the mines," Davis said. "Tours will me taken through every 15 minutes, and there are tour guides to take you through from scene to scene. Those scenes depict real life things that happen right here in Scioto County."
Davis said the story centers around what happens when a group of teenagers go out to the mines for a night of fun.
"There's some things that happen. I don't want to give too much away, of course," Davis said. "But there's some things that happen in those scenes; there are choices that are made, and because of those choices there's consequences. We see those consequences play out in the scenes."
Davis said people come through the drama and view each of the scenes.
"At the end they're challenged with that," Davis said. "Our prayer is that people, if they are in that lifestyle, will see what the ramifications of that can be, and that there is a better way, that they can live a life that is good."
The dates this year are Friday, Nov. 16, Saturday, Nov. 17, Friday, Nov. 24 and Saturday, Nov. 24, from 7 p.m. until midnight each night.
Davis said those staging the event had groups going in every half hour last year, and this year they are able to take those groups through every 15 minutes, since they have learned how to handle larger crowds.
"We're trying to use it to speak to the problems in our community," Davis said. "This drug abuse and alcoholism and all these things such as physical abuse - we have a lot of domestic violence. These kinds of things are addressed in this drama and the actors are just phenomenal."
Davis said people can make group reservations or get more information by calling 740-776-0510. There will also be concessions this year so that people can get something to eat while they are waiting.
The White Gravel Mines are located at 4217 White Gravel McDaniel Road in Minford.

Southern Ohio has been focused on attacking the epidemic of addiction to prescription drugs and heroin over the past several years. Since 2011, Governor John R. Kasich has made this battle a target of efforts by his administration. As a result, the Health Recovery Services (HRS) Southern Ohio Treatment Center will open in Jackson, Ohio, today. Jackson County, near the epicenter of this crisis of drug abuse, overdoses, and crime, is a logical location for the addiction treatment facility.
Jackson County Municipal Court Judge Mark Musick explained his support of the project, "The increase in Opioid use has had a significant impact on the criminal justice system, and I am afraid that if the trend continues, there will likely be disastrous consequences in Jackson County. Effective treatment needs to be a component of the response to the problem. While I have reservations about the use of some medications as a part of the treatment response, I am impressed that HRS has an excellent grasp of the issues related to medication use and has been conscientious about seeking input from local leaders in designing the project."
Orman Hall, director of the Ohio Department of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Services (ODADAS), commented, "Health Recovery Services was chosen as the service provider after a competitive selection process. The agency and Executive Director Joe Gay, PhD, are acknowledged leaders in prevention, education, and treatment efforts related to alcohol and other drug addiction, and specifically medication-assisted treatment for opiate addiction."
Funding for the new treatment center is coming from the Governor's Office of Appalachia and ODADAS. The center will offer counseling and medication-assisted therapies as vital components of effective treatment. According to Dr. Gay, "The physical addiction is important but not the only component to be addressed for recovery. Other components include a drug using lifestyle, habits, attitudes, a loss of spiritual values, motivation, and effective means of problem solving. These, along with underlying psychological problems, have to be addressed through counseling, education, and training." All of these components will be addressed through the new program.
"A program of this nature creates another treatment alternative for our residents that are struggling with an opiate addiction," stated Ron Adkins, executive director of the Gallia-Jackson-Meigs Board of Alcohol, Drug Addiction and Mental Health Services.
Adkins acknowledged the collaboration that has occurred to bring this project to the area and expressed his appreciation for the opportunity to pursue these funds. He also added, "We hope to build an employable workforce that can positively impact the local economy."
Local advocate and businessman Larry Kidd, chair of the Jackson County Drug Task Force and president and CEO of Reliable Staffing Services, said, "Rehabilitation is a key component for fighting our local drug problem. We are so pleased that the Governor's Office of Appalachia has helped facilitate a treatment center in Jackson. This is an important and vital step in combating the Opiate problem in our area."
Over the past two years in Ohio, numerous illegitimate opiate prescribing operations, often termed "pill mills," have been closed. Prevention measures have been a focus, with the organization of local coalitions, stepped up law enforcement, and education of the public and prescribers. Since treatment was particularly difficult to access in hard hit southern Ohio, enhanced addiction treatment options have been an additional goal.
Health Recovery Services has provided addiction treatment in southeast Ohio for the past 38 years, and now operates outpatient offices in six counties. The Medical Director of the new facility will be Peter Rogers M.D., a Board Certified Addiction Medicine specialist with more than 25 years of experience in Addiction Medicine.
The new facility will be located at 120 Twin Oaks Drive, in Jackson, and will open and begin assessing clients on April 2, 2013. Clients will be scheduled to begin medication when needed in the order they are assessed, so persons interested in receiving services are encouraged to call now for appointments, at (740) 286-5075, extension 217. Medication will not be dispensed until the applicable certifications are obtained from State and Federal agencies, probably in early to mid-April.

Etymology of "Good Humor"
By Gary Amirault
"Good" is an Old English word which goes back to the Germanic word gut (pronounced "goot"). Its most ancient source seems to have come from the prehistoric Germanic word gath which meant to 'bring together' (source of our English gather and together).
Webster's primary definitions of the word are:
- Sufficient or satisfactory for its purpose and
- In excess, ample, full.
Humor stems from the Latin humere which meant 'be moist.' From this word came the word humidus, the source of the English word humid. Related to the word humid was the word humor, which meant simply 'liquid.' According to the Dictionary of Word Origins, humor came to be used for any of the four bodily fluids (blood, phlegm, choler, and black bile). Much superstition surrounded the various body liquids in the medieval days. The "liquid" meaning of the word stayed as its meaning until it gradually developed in meaning via 'mental disposition at a particular time, mood' and 'inclination, or whim.' In the late 17th century it finally developed into the modern meaning of 'funniness.'
Bill Moss of Portland, Missouri has written a few thoughts on 'Good Humor.' Here are his words:
Good humor is the leaven that leavens the whole lump. I say 'good' humor to distinguish it from the witless attempts to imitate it and the sterile substitutes we employ in our vaudevillian-like lives. Nothing that hurts or destroys is good humor. Nothing that casts down or denigrates is good humor. For good humor is an attitude and not simply a witty saying or artful phrasing. It sees, and it comments on what it sees. But it is never bitter nor despairing. And it alone approaches the game of life with the proper perspective. Will Rogers is credited with the line "I never met a man I didn't like." If he did indeed use the line and was sincere in the sentiment, he most assuredly was not saying that every man he had ever met was likeable. No. What he was saying was that the good humor which was at home in him gave him the forgiving nature that did not impute sin to those he met. And, if so, he has become the patron saint to all those who manifest the same spirit in their dealings with their fellows. Good humor is not naivete. Good humor is fully cognizant. And yet it is the twinkle in the eye of God.

The in-form striker, who has scored 14 goals this season, sustained an ankle injury in the recent match with Reading.
Laudrup challenged his players to overcome Michu's absence when they travelled to Fulham at the weekend, and they delivered by earning a 2-1 victory.
And the Swans manager hinted he may have to ask his charges to repeat the feat when struggling Villa arrive at the Liberty Stadium.
"I don't know if he will be fit," Laudrup said. "Obviously, he got an injury on his ankle and it was twice the size the other day.
"It's not a muscle injury but it's a question about pain and if he can't put his foot into the boot then he can't play. He can't play in bare feet, I don't think.
"The medical team say it's a possibility he could be fit for Tuesday but let's see."
Laudrup has warned his team against complacency as well, with Villa on a run of three defeats that has seen them concede 15 goals to Chelsea, Tottenham and Wigan.
He added: "It's been a difficult time for Aston Villa - everyone's going to be down. But it's a football game, we have to respect them.
"It's going to be a tough game but we're going to be looking to build on what we've done at Fulham and hopefully get another three points on New Year's Day."

Shannon Sloss
Feb. 27, 2013
LOUISVILLE, Ky. - University of Louisville head coach Justine Sowry announced that Shannon Sloss has signed her National Letter of Intent to play for the Cardinals starting in the fall of 2013. She is the fourth of six newcomers expected to join the U of L field hockey program, with the other signees to be announced in the upcoming weeks.
Shannon Sloss
Pequea, Pa. Penn Manor HS Forward
Shannon Sloss joins U of L from Pequea, Pa., where she was a senior captain on the 2012 Pennsylvania State runner-up Penn Manor High School team. She helped lead her team to three Lancaster-Lebanon League titles and two section and district championships while scoring 62 career goals and dishing 92 assists. The two-time Harrow Sports/National Field Hockey Coaches Association All-Pennsylvania Region first team selection (2011 and 2012) earned third-team All-America honors in 2011. Sloss is a three-time All-State selection, earning first team honors in 2011 and 2012 and a second team selection in 2010. She is also a two-time All-League and All-Region pick.
Sloss played for the Penn Lanco/Spooky Nook club team and helped lead her team to gold medals at the National Field Hockey Festival from 2010-12. She also participated in the Disney Tournament, the Keystone Games and the National Club Field Hockey Championship.
Justine Sowry on Shannon Sloss
"Shannon is an exceptional athlete with great speed and a skillset that will add punch and depth to our forward line. Her work rate and hustle on the field are unyielding with the ability to put to put the ball in the back of the goal. Shannon knows how to win as she hails from an exceptional school and club program led by Coach Matt Soto. We are excited to have Shannon join our program and we look forward to her being an offensive threat for the Cardinals."
Shannon Sloss on Louisville
"I chose U of L because when I came out here for the first time, the campus amazed me and I liked how everyone was so nice. The facilities are the best I have ever seen and I love how the whole community supports the athletic programs! The team is a great group of girls and I cannot wait to start playing for U of L!"
