When we first met I was very pleased with your sound no nonsense approach and your positive survey for the fencing.
Your company professionalism didn't end there.

Many thanks to you and your team for a very good job well done. Would we recommend Cheshire Fencing –

Quick Review : @BreakfastClubKW – KIPCO Tower.
Yesterday, I went with a friend to try the new Breakfast Club in KIPCO Tower in to have breakfast, I went straight from work so I didn't have time to bring my camera.
I loved everything about the place, the decoration, the atmosphere & the amazing view. The food was delicious, and heavy as well, which is perfect for me because I love heavy breakfasts.
I highly recommend this place, because of its good food & great service.. The tower is quiet relaxing, which makes a perfect place for brunch lovers.

David Beckham cries in his last match, ever!
Last night, David Beckham played his last match in his career, as he decided that this season would be the end for him. He played with his french team, Paris Saint Germain, and wore the captain's arm band, along with a pair of boots designed by him, made especially for this occasion. When he was subbed off at the end of the second half, Beckham couldn't stop his emotions, and burst into tears. He retires at the age of 38 after 20 years of being a footballer.

"Uncle Buck" is a good one. For me, John Candy's turn opposite Dan Aykroyd in "The Great Outdoors" elicits more chuckles.
Dustin Schoof
I'm with you on "The Great Outdoors" and "The 'Burbs." Love and own both films. Two of the most overlooked movies from the decade.
Dustin Schoof
To be honest, "Raging Bull" slipped my mind. There are so many great films from the decade, it's hard to include every single one. But I have a feeling a second poll is on the horizon.
Which film did you vote for?
Dustin Schoof
dystopian paradise,
I agree with you on "Caddyshack." It definitely is more of a reflection of the '70s than the 1980s. A fantastic and hilarious film, nonetheless.
"Girls Just Want to Have Fun?" Really, Alyssa? Just kidding. Everyone has their guilty pleasure. For me, it's 1987's "Monster Squad."
That reminds me. I just realized I left off "The Evil Dead" and "Evil Dead 2!"
"Back to the Future" was a popular one this morning in the newsroom. Like "Back to the Future," "Raiders" is a classic that got slightly weaker with each sequel (if you haven't seen "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," consider yourself lucky), although "Back to the Future Part II" is still a good flick.
I will be honest. I have never seen "Out of Africa." I'll have to add it to my Netflix queue. Thanks for the suggestion!
Which movie on the list did you vote for?
Dustin Schoof
In hindsight, I should have included "Caddyshack" and "Airplane," both of which are among my favorite films of all-time. To be honest, I was never a huge fan of "A Christmas Story." I don't know if it's because of too many years of marathon viewings on TBS or that "Christmas Vacation" is a much funnier movie, IMHO.
"A Nightmare on Elm Street" is a classic in the horror genre. I had "Empire" on the list, but I think it got bumped off somehow inserting the poll question.
Next time!
Dustin Schoof
It looks like "Dirty Dancing" is in the lead.
I think one of the most underrated and overlooked films of the decade is "The 'Burbs," which stars Tom Hanks as an average, suburban dad who suspects his new neighbors are up to no good. Bruce Dern is great as Rumsfield, the military veteran neighbor who helps fuel the conspiracy fire.
Speaking of late '80s comedies, another all-time favorite is "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation." It is, hands-down, the funniest of the "Vacation" movies.
Dustin Schoof
@Tony: Good call on "Big" and "Field of Dreams." Both of them are great films. It is amazing to look back and see how many memorable movies were made between 1980 and 1989, although my favorite flick from the '80s is Tim Burton's "Batman."
@dystopian paradise: I honestly forgot all about "Full Metal Jacket." Thank you for the suggestion! Perhaps a second poll is in order. That being said, which of the films listed in the poll do you enjoy?
I highly recommend the wings at Porters' Pub in Easton. Great selection and even greater taste!
Thanks, factfactfact! I realized after posting the poll that fan favorites Demolition were left off of the list.
My personal favorite tag-teams were The Rockers and D-Generation X, although when it comes down to pure brutality and domination, the Road Warriors stood above the competition.
Good call on The Fabulous Freebirds. Who are some of your other favorite tag-teams?
Dustin Schoof
I am a fan of "Weird Al," but I realize not everyone shares my appreciation for his work. But he is a very gifted and talented artist. Writing parody songs is not an easy task, let alone 13 albums worth. I plan on going to the concert. Anyone else?
Anne Hathaway is the actress portraying Selina Kyle/Catwoman in Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight Rises," the sequel to 2008's "The Dark Knight." Hathaway has appeared in such films as "The Devil Wears Prada," "Get Smart," "Bride Wars" and "The Princess Diaries." Her costume has been generating buzz among movie and comic book fans alike since photos of Hathaway on set first started appearing online.
Thanks for reading!
Dustin Schoof
I agree that it is surprisingly conservative. I figured it would fall somewhere between Michelle Pfeiffer's costume from "Batman Returns" and the Halle Berry getup (although "Catwoman" was a terrible, terrible film and had absolutely nothing to do with the actual character or her comic book roots). Granted, we still have lots of time before "The Dark Knight Rises" opens, so chances are that the finalized version of the costume will look slightly different on screen.
Dustin Schoof
I think there have been some interesting renderings of Catwoman's costume in the comics over the years. True, some of them have been on the bland side. But I thought Darwyn Cooke's version of the costume was perfect for translating to the big screen considering it has a modern look and it would fit in with the tone of Christopher Nolan's Batman universe.
Dustin Schoof
This is a pretty eclectic and diverse list of nominees. I am glad to see Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, Heart and Guns N' Roses get the recognition they deserve, though it would be nice to see Jett's first band, The Runaways, nominated. If it wasn't for The Runaways, there would be no Bangles, Go-Go's or Donnas.
I was a bit surprised by The Cure's nomination, though it's hard to argue against their cultural and musical influence.
I really, really, REALLY hope that if GNR is inducted, the original lineup of Axl Rose, Slash, Duff McKagan, Izzy Stradlin and Steven Adler (or Matt Sorum) can put aside their differences for one night and give the fans what they want
To me, Guns N' Roses is not Guns N' Roses without Axl Rose, Slash, Duff McKagan and Izzy Stradlin. Rose should call the group Axl and Friends, because without the aforementioned members, they are nothing more than a glorified tribute band. It is the same as the Rolling Stones going on tour without Mick Jagger and Keith Richards and still calling themselves the Rolling Stones, or Aerosmith minus Steven Tyler and Joe Perry.
I know the odds are astronomical, but I really hope Rose can bury the hatchet with Slash -- at least for one night -- so the REAL Guns N' Roses (with either Steven Adler or Matt Sorum behind the kit) can get on stage together and perform "Mr. Brownstone" or "Paradise City" one last time for the fans, although I would love to seem them rip through "Nightrain" instead of one of the "hits."
I can dream, can't I?
I saw Ace at the New Year's show at Croc Rock and it was, literally, deafening. I remember watching his drummer mouth to the rhythm guitarist that the sound was too loud. But that didn't stop Ace from putting on a heck of a concert.
I know I'll be in Allentown on Nov. 6. Are there any other Kiss Army members out there who plan on going to the show?

One of things that has been holding back small business when it comes to having an online presence has been lack of technical knowledge.

Pomona College Museum of Art Awarded $190,000 Getty Foundation Grant
The Pomona College Museum of Art has been awarded a $190,000 Getty Foundation grant for the future exhibit "Pomona College 1969-1973." The grant is one of 15 grants—totaling nearly $2.8 million—that will launch an unprecedented series of concurrent exhibitions at museums throughout Southern California, highlighting the post-World War II Los Angeles art scene. Exhibitions will begin in 2011 as part of the initiative Pacific Standard Time: Art in L.A. 1945-1980.
"The exhibitions and the events that will accompany them as part of Pacific Standard Time will demonstrate the pivotal role played by Southern California in national and international artistic movements since the middle of the 20th century," said Deborah Marrow, director of the Getty Foundation, during the October 28 announcement. "Art institutions from Santa Barbara to San Diego are joining together to create programs that will highlight the region's vibrant artistic scene." Among those receiving the grants are the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The Museum of Contemporary Art, The Hammer Museum and Scripps College's Ruth Chandler Williamson Gallery.
"Pomona College 1969-1973" will explore a provocative era when the Pomona College Museum of Art presented some of the most challenging exhibitions of contemporary art anywhere in the country through its experimental exhibition program curated by Hal Glicksman and Helene Winer. The display of groundbreaking works by key artists who bridged the gap between Post-Minimalism and Conceptual Art, such as Michael Asher, Tom Eatherton and Allen Ruppersberg, formed the educational backdrop for a generation of artists who spent their formative years in Los Angeles and came to dominate the explosive New York art scene of the 1980s. The avant-garde art practices and exhibitions at Pomona College during this period paralleled groundbreaking developments in the Southern California art world, including pop art, conceptual art, assemblage, video, performance, installation, and most specifically to Southern California, the Finish Fetish work and the Light and Space movement.
In addition to the grant for the Pacific Standard Times exhibit, Pomona College Museum of Art Curator Rebecca McGrew was awarded a prestigious J. Paul Getty Curatorial Research Fellowship of $15,500 for a three-month leave to undertake research, conduct interviews and determine the scope of the "Pomona College 1969–1973" project. The interviews, one of the key components of the fellowship, will form the basis of an oral history of the time and fill in gaps in the minimal exhibition files in the College and Museum archives.
Among those being interviewed are artists Mowry Baden (Pomona Class of '58 and former Pomona professor), Guy Williams, David Gray, Stephen Davis and James Turrell (Pomona Class of '65), and as many of the other artists exhibited at that time as possible; gallery directors Hal Glicksman and Helene Winer; and other members of the Los Angeles art scene who may have been involved with these artists, including former Getty Research Institute Director Thomas Crow (Pomona Class of '69), former Otis Gallery Director Anne Ayres, and art critic Hunter Drohojowska-Philp.
The Fellowship, followed by the Pacific Standard Time Grant, will help McGrew build an exhibition framework, conceptualize a catalogue for the show, create a permanent record of a vital and significant moment in the art history of Pomona College and Los Angeles, and flesh out connections between Los Angeles and New York art in the 1970s.
McGrew, Pomona Class of 1985, organizes both the permanent collection and temporary exhibitions at the Pomona College Museum of Art, writing accompanying catalogues as well. In 1999, she founded the Project Series, which focuses on artists from Southern California. Currently the series is featuring "Project Series 37: Ben Dean." Previous artists featured have included Mark Allen and Machine Project, Jessica Bronson, Kaz Oshiro and Jason Rogenes. McGrew has also curated main gallery exhibitions of works by Frederick Hammersley, Ed Ruscha and Raymond Pettibon, among others.
Prior to working at the Pomona College Museum of Art, McGrew worked as the assistant director at the Center for the Study of Political Graphics (CSPG), a research associate at The Museum of Contemporary Art for the Permanent Collection (MOCA), and in the Media and Performing Arts section of the curatorial department at MOCA.
The Pomona College Museum of Art (located at 330 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA) is open to the public and free of charge, Tuesday through Friday, from noon to 5 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m. For more information, call (909) 621-8283 or visit www.pomona.edu/museum.
The Museum collects, preserves, exhibits and interprets works of art; and houses a substantial permanent collection as well as serving as a gallery of temporary exhibitions. Important holdings include the Kress Collection of 15th- and 16th-century Italian panel paintings; more than 5,000 examples of Pre-Columbian to 20th-century American Indian art and artifacts, including basketry, ceramics and beadwork; and a large collection of American and European prints, drawings and photographs, including works by Francisco de Goya, José Clemente Orozco, and Rico Lebrun.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11, 2012 Reserve component members still have time to nominate their civilian employers for the 2013 Secretary of Defense Employer Support Freedom Award, officials from Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve, a DOD agency, said today.
Nominations for the award are due by Jan. 21, 2013. The award is the highest honor the Defense Department grants to civilian employers.
ESGR's central mission is to encourage employment of Guardsmen and reservists, who bring integrity, global perspective and proven leadership to the civilian workforce.
The award recognizes employers that go to extraordinary lengths to support their employees' service in the reserve components and enables Guardsmen and reservists to show their appreciation for their employers' support, according to ESGR officials.
The nomination process does not take long to complete, officials said, and family members can submit nominations on behalf of a Guardsman or reservist. Employers of every size and industry are eligible. ESGR is accepting nominations online at www.FreedomAward.mil.
So far, 1,454 nominations have been submitted, just halfway through the nomination timeframe.
"Guard and Reserve members understand better than anyone how critical America's employers are to our national security, which is why we look to them to tell us which employers deserve this distinguished honor," said Ron Young, ESGR's executive director.
"We call on all Guardsmen and reservists who have received outstanding support from their employer to nominate them for the 2013 Secretary of Defense Employer Support Freedom Award. There really is no better way to thank these employers for standing firmly behind our military men and women," he added.
The 2013 recipients will be announced in early summer and honored in a ceremony here next fall. Recipients of the 2012 Freedom Award included such diverse employers as a telecommunications company, a department of public safety, a Midwestern law firm and a small-town church.
The Freedom Award recognizes exceptional support from the employer community, said ESGR officials said. Officials noted that 175 employers have received the award since it was established in 1996.
ESGR develops and maintains employer support for Guard and reserve service, advocates relevant initiatives, recognizes outstanding support, increases awareness of applicable laws and resolves conflict between service members and employers.

What is Verification?
Approximately 30% of all students that submit a FAFSA are selected by the US Department of Education for a process known as verification. If selected students will be asked by UM to provide additional documentation that will then be compared to what was provided on the FAFSA. Doing so ensures that the information reported on the FAFSA is accurate and that students receive the correct amount of federal aid.
What to do if Selected for Verification
If selected for verification login to CyberBear and go to Tab 6 "What's Next" of the financial aid offer to see what needs to be provided. Links to the required forms or instructions will be attached to each specific requirement.
How to Submit the Required Tax Information
As part of the verification process students and parents (dependent students only) are required to submit to the Financial Aid Office their tax return information by either using the IRS Data Retrieval Tool at FAFSA.gov or by submitting an IRS Return Transcript. Photocopies of tax returns can no longer be accepted.
For Information on the Data Retrieval Tool or obtaining your Return Transcript, refer to the IRS Data Retrieval/Return Transcript Instructions.
What Happens once all the Required Verification Documents are Submitted
After the Financial Aid Office has received all the required verification documents a Financial Aid Evaluator will compare the provided information with the student's FAFSA and make any necessary corrections. Once the changes are sent to and received back from the Department of Education the verification process will be complete.
In certain situations the evaluator may require additional documentation beyond what was initially requested. Depending on the time of year it can take up to four weeks for a student's FAFSA to be verified. Students will not receive financial aid until the verification process has been completed and necessary corrections have been made.
Deadline for Completing Verification
For grant aid to be available for finalization of the registration bill, verification documentation must be submitted prior to August 1 for the autumn, January 1 for the spring and May 1 for the summer.
For students who are able to finalize without verification having been completed, the verification process must be done prior to the time a student ceases attending in an academic year to receive loans or an FSEOG grant.
For the Federal Pell Grant students have up to one hundred and twenty (120) days after they cease to be enrolled in the academic year to complete verification. If enrolled in the summer, verification must be completed by September 15.
Understand that completing verification includes the time required for the school to submit corrections to the federal processor. Students need to also allow time for the financial aid office to determine award eligibility.

By Linda D. KozarynAmerican Forces Press Service
WOODBRIDGE, Va., June 2, 1999 The Viking JROTC Battalion of Woodbridge Senior High School here had a chance to strut its stuff June 1 for a most unusual guest: the Pentagon's top civilian leader.
Defense Secretary William S. Cohen visited the Army Junior ROTC battalion to pay tribute to the youth program, which teaches citizenship, leadership, teamwork, self-esteem and self- discipline. He ceremoniously "trooped the line" formed by the 210 massed cadets, escorted by retired Army Lt. Col. Franklyn Matthews, the school's senior Army instructor.
The women's drill team members then took center stage, their dark green Army uniforms accented by vibrant yellow berets and white gloves with yellow palms. The teen-agers stomped, slapped and clapped through a military drill routine that blended cheerleading, a sprinkle of rap and a dash of jazz.
Next, the men's drill team filed in chanting, "Standin' tall and lookin' good, Oughta be in Hollywood." After meticulously performing silent, precision drills while twirling M-1 Garand rifles, the young men filed out again singing "The Army Song."
"This is one of the finest programs I've seen," Cohen remarked from the podium, drawing a smattering of "Hoo-ahs!" and rousing applause from the students, faculty and guests in the bleachers. The Viking cadets, he said, reflected discipline, self-worth, pride, responsibility, accountability and a commitment to country.
"When you look at all of the troubles that teen-agers have throughout our society and all of the temptations they are facing, and you see young people like we have today, it reaffirms the hope and the optimism that we have for our future and for this generation," he said later.
Whether or not they choose a military career, Cohen said, JROTC cadets will help America remain the great country it is today. "That's the reason you spend so many hours preparing yourselves for the future, because you're concerned about something called honor, truth, and life, liberty, democracy and freedom," he told the cadets. "That's what we're fighting for today and we'll continue to fight for in the future."
The secretary explained that the ongoing conflict in Kosovo is an example of the U.S. commitment to those principles. The United States and NATO are committed to continuing the fight until Kosovo's refugees return home, autonomy is restored, Serb forces withdraw and an international peacekeeping force with NATO at its core goes in, he said.
"That is the pledge the United States and our NATO allies have made and we intend to keep that," Cohen said.
He told the JROTC cadets that U.S. service members are held in great esteem wherever they are deployed. "The reason for that is we have the best people. We put people at the very top of the pyramid of our concerns and our interests and values," he said.
American troops are forward deployed on the front lines in Korea, in the Gulf, in the Asia-Pacific region, in Europe, as well as in Bosnia and Albania, Cohen said. Their pride, bearing, discipline and professionalism reflect upon their country. "People say, 'There is a military whose side I want to be on.' Potential enemies make a similar judgment. They say, 'There is a military and there is a country that I don't want to contest.'"
Military members serve as diplomats, carrying forth "our flag, our values, our virtues and our commitment to promote freedom and democracy wherever we can," Cohen said. "That's the reason why the United States is the No. 1 superpower. Yes, we have technology. And yes, we have prosperity. But that is only made possible by the fact that we have the finest military in the world."
More than 400,000 students participate in JROTC programs sponsored by the armed services at 2,600 U.S. high schools, according to Pentagon officials. The services pay about 65 percent of the cost for the programs, providing uniforms, course materials and a portion of the instructors' salaries. The curriculum includes classroom instruction and one or two weeks of summer training at a military base.
Retired Army Sgt. Maj. Joe Neely, one of Woodbridge's JROTC instructors and a 26-year veteran logistics specialist, said he was attracted to training young people while he was post sergeant major at the Army's Cameron Station in Alexandria, Va. "We had an adopt-a-school program which really got me interested," he explained.
That interest led to a job with the JROTC program getting underway at Woodbridge in 1993, Neely said. "Our mission is to motivate young people to become better citizens," he said. "Our program gives them skills and development that will help them in any walk of life, whether they're going to college or pursuing a career."
The JROTC program benefits Woodbridge Senior High as well as its students, according to assistant principal Benita Stephens. "They serve our school in any way that we ask," she said. "They serve as ushers for special programs. They always present the colors. Their drill teams represent our school."
JROTC is so popular among Woodbridge's students that the school has had to cap the program at 250 because of space limitations, Stephens noted. In the past, she said, "we've had to turn kids down."
From Stephens' perspective, JROTC, with its special events and summer camps, gives high school students discipline and a chance for recognition. "They enjoy the awards and the ranks," she said. "It makes them feel very important. It is the one place where we can recognize a lot of students at one time."

If the Crunch did this, it would bring in about 10,000 portable seats for the field area, to go with the 11,000-plus that are part of the stadium.
A game at the Carrier Dome might sound good in theory, but I don't see how it makes sense.
Between football in the fall and winter, basketball in the winter and lacrosse in the winter and spring, turf or a basketball court is always down. I can't see SU wanting to let the Crunch rig up an ice-making system on those surfaces, much less what the additional cost of that endeavor might be vs. doing it outside at ABS.
And even if SU said sure, the expense of renting the dome for a day would make the venture even more cost prohibitive. ABS is a multi-use public stadium, in theory; the dome is a private facility.
But the greater point to this is that the attraction of the whole deal is an outdoor game, with snow and weather elements. Putting a hockey game in the dome would be sterile and blah, just like putting it in any other football dome across the country. If you make this kind of investment you want it to pay off in exposure, and that means playing outside. Playing under any dome is just no big deal.
I have only heard of those comments second-hand and have not had a chance to talk to Dan about them yet, so I can't really interpret them or read anything into them.
I will say that Dan would probably be the last guy in the room to say anything critical in general, much less about hometown fans. I'm sure there is an element of frustration involved.
Over the years, some players on slumping teams have told me that it helps to go on the road, where there are no expectations of hometown fans and they aren't gripping the sticks so tightly. But I don't know if that's what Dan was talking about.
Additionally, while the players might not like getting booed at home, they are professionals and I think they understand that's how it goes sometimes. I don't think any of them question the solid support of Syracuse hockey fans overall.
Hard to say until I actually see him play.
I'm guessing that with the run of tough road games coming up, it won't hurt to have another AHL-experienced player around.
I also think maybe this says that with callups and injuries it could be awhile before we see Kelly, MacDonald, York and MacKenzie all in the lineup together, so getting some depth in the middle is important.
Mayorov is here.
You both raise good points, and no, that's not why Syracuse lost the game.
But I would add:
1. Most of the time when a player interferes with a goalie, he is facing the netminder and then bumps into him or plows him over. Pic sort of had his back to Munro and the way he twisted and tipped over was a pretty clear indication he had help in falling.
2. Even saying that, the second picture clearly shows that Pic's skates were still outside the crease when the puck went in the net, and he hadn't yet touched Munro. To me, that's called setting a screen, not interfering.
No. Filatov has passed the deadline to return to juniors, which I believe is nine pro games.
As far as replacements for Filatov and Mayorov, so much will depend upon what happens this weekend. Maybe Dorsett and/or Torres come back from injuries in Columbus soon, forcing roster moves there.
To be more specific, it appears he might have the flu. He was a little, um, sick on the bench during practice.
I'm told his ankle, which suffered a deep cut, still needs to regain more strength before he's ready to go again.
For a vet like York, the rule is that he is safe playing up to nine NHL games or staying up to 30 days. Beyond that, he would have to clear if sent back down.
I have heard nothing to suggest there is any truth to that rumor. Using a weapon in the course of a crime or some other disturbance is a very serious matter and would be hard to cover up, especially if there was a police report. Besides myself covering the team, we have reporters whose job includes checking these police reports daily.
I have a general rule of not responding to or repeating rumors, especially when they come from anonymous sources. I made an exception in this case because I want to stress that if we had hard information that what you suggested was true we would absolutely report on it and not "cover it up.'' But it is difficult to chase ghosts and rumors, and the problem with anonymous postings about sports or any topic is that people say all kinds of mean-spirited things that turn out to be false.
That being said, many tips on things big and small do turn out to be true, and if you have something specific to pass on I would absolutely encourage anyone to email me personally.
My first thought was that he was recalled and Columbus didn't want to risk him getting hurt. Yes, he's on an AHL deal, but that doesn't take long to fix.
Maybe it was nothing more than him needing a rest. If so, the timing and reasoning were strange. As I said in the blog, there are a couple of things about it that don't pass the smell test.
Ross makes lineup moves all the time, and, when he can, he tells me player X needs a rest or player Y is banged up. He never tells me to go ask Chris MacFarland about something as seemingly simple as his decision on a healthy scratch.
Thanks everyone. Whether you have been reading my Crunch stories for 15 years or 15 minutes, I am always aware that your interest in the Crunch creates the demand that allows me to do what I do on my blog and in the paper.
I appreciate all your feedback and will continue to provide the coverage that hopefully you will find insightful and worth your time, especially in this era where there are so many ways to get information.
Didn't realize my picture was on the scoreboard. Sorry about that.
You are correct. It was removed.
I asked Columbus assistant GM Chris MacFarland. He said if the need for someone like Sgroi arises and he is healthy, he will definitely be on the radar for a possible Crunch contract.
Regarding the scoreboard:
Nothing much new. Crunch owner Howard Dolgon recently met with legislator Patrick Kilmartin, one of those who voted against the scoreboard. Dolgon said he just answered some of Kilmartin's questions, but that nothing concrete came of it.
Dolgon keeps saying that he's confident that Deputy County Executive Ed Kochian will help get this thing done. He also says that there's no way he signs a lease extension in a couple years if there's no new scoreboard.
I refuse to believe that a successful AHL franchise will be allowed to leave town over this issue. I also think with the economy the way it is, it will become harder and harder for the Legislature to justify $700,000-plus for this perk, especially since so many taxpayers could care less about hockey or the War Memorial.
It'd be great to have a new scoreboard, and the team has done enough for the community in 15 years to deserve one. But it's also easy for an outsider to look at it and see how it still keeps score, shows the occasional fuzzy highlight and has a few advertisements, and think, this thing works fine, spend the money to fix up my streets.
Doesn't seem to be. He skated at the optional skate Saturday morning and said he was fine.
I doubt it. Willis wanted a six-figure deal. I don't think Columbus would go that high at this point.
Penalty parole - I like that. Maybe that can be a new statistical category.
One clarification - The AHL contacted me to explain that ANY time remaining on non-coincidental minors is halved heading into overtime, whether there are two seconds left or 1:59.
I thought it was only halved if more than one minute remained. That's not the case.
What do you other fans think of this rule?

Miguel Cabrera drove in three runs with a pair of doubles, Rick Porcello struck out seven in six innings and the Detroit Tigers beat the Texas Rangers 8-2 Monday night.
After their first 12 batters, the Tigers had already roughed up Rangers rookie right-hander Justin Grimm (1-1) for six runs and eight hits. They had only five runs and 15 hits while losing two of three in Pittsburgh over the weekend.
In a rematch of last year's AL championship series, Cabrera put the Tigers ahead to stay with a two-run double in the first.
Josh Hamilton hit his first homer in his last 12 games for Texas, a two-run shot in the seventh. It was his 23rd.
Porcello (5-5) won for only the second time his last nine starts.

Best Month to Be in St. Louis St. Louis 2003 - October
Readers' Choice: October
Nestled in the space between the choking heat of summer and the bitter cold of winter is the month of October. But the tenth month that means "eighth month" in Latin isn't fabulous in St. Louis just because the temperature rarely rises above 70 or below 40. For little ones, October means a trip to the pumpkin patch, scampering through dark tunnels made from hay bales while clutching a flashlight with tiny fingers. It means rehearsing a joke that follows "trick or treat" on Halloween night. For the older set, there's a festival for just about any passion, whether you're into jazz, beer, Missouri crafts or Christopher Columbus. If a road trip beckons, it is just a hop, skip and a short train or car ride out to Hermann for Octoberfest celebrations that come complete with "oompah" polka bands and steins filled with cold beer. Still not convinced? Then take a walk in Forest Park or a drive along the Great River Road in Illinois to see the red, orange and yellow show that nature has to offer.

Iowa's governor has ordered that flags be lowered to half-staff at sites throughout the state in honor of the five servicemen killed last week in Tennessee. Gov. Terry Branstad called for the state-controlled flags to be lowered from Tuesday through Monday. President Barack Obama has ordered flags flown at federal buildings and grounds to be lowered to half-staff until sunset Saturday. The action honors the four Marines and one Navy sailor killed in a shooting last week in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
According to police, Bruce and Barbara Blair of Hudson, Wisconsin, were riding a tandem bike early Sunday morning as part of The Register's Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa — or RAGBRAI— when they were struck by 36-year-old Charryse Chavez of Sioux City.
Police say Chavez ignored an officer controlling traffic at an intersection and drove through. Sioux City Police Sgt. Jim Cunningham said Chavez was arrested about block away.
The victims were transported to a hospital, where Bruce Blair remains in stable condition. Barbara Blair was treated and released.
Chavez has been charged with a second offense of operating while intoxicated, failure to obey a police officer and having no insurance.

Quantic Dream co-CEO Guillaume de Fondaumiere met with prolific Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio in 2004 to discuss whether or not the Titanic star would partner with the French studio for his first game. Ultimately, he declined over concerns of image and doubts that technology at the time could faithfully replicate his actions.
In the time since, Quantic Dream released Heavy Rain, a game that de Fondaumiere described during a New York City event on Saturday as a "tipping point" for Hollywood. He said this game has changed actors' mindsets about games from "Oh, it's kind of interesting. Yeah, I'd be tempted" To "Yeah, I want to be part of it."
"This is really a game that had an impact in Hollywood," de Fondaumiere said. "People are talking about [Heavy Rain] on good terms and saying 'this is a possible avenue now for talents to express themselves.'"
De Fondaumiere wouldn't say if he's held any additional meetings with DiCaprio since 2004, but explained that the stigmas attached to games--"they're addicting," "they lead to violence"--have been "exaggerated" and are generally not accepted by consumers at large.
"I think that things have evolved. I think people understand that some of the criticism that has been on gaming; the stigma that has been on gaming…has been exaggerated," de Fondaumiere said.
Still, he explained that games must go further and show the entertainment industry that games can convey messages with meaning.
He believes an example is Beyond: Two Souls, which features not only the voices, but also body movements, of actors like Ellen Page (Inception, Juno, Willem Dafoe (Spider-Man, The Boondock Saints), Kadeem Hardison (A Different World), and Eric Winter (Days of Our Lives, The Mentalist), among others.
"There needs also to be projects, or products, if I may say so, that show that we're doing something meaningful," he said. "I think that our responsibility as a medium is to be maybe a little bit more meaningful with what we're doing."
"I think that our responsibility as a medium is to be maybe a little bit more meaningful with what we're doing."
Still, some games are just supposed to be fun and not require gamers to think too much, de Fondaumiere said. There is a place for these types of games in the industry, but don't expect Quantic Dream to make an over-the-top shooter anytime soon.
"I think there are certain games that are just fun. And that's great. When I come home, sometimes I just don't want to think too much about anything. It's like watching an action film. Or playing an action game," he said. "What we're trying to do at Quantic is show that--we're not the only ones, of course--that there are a number of creators today that want to bring something more meaningful. And that's what interests us."
The stakes for Beyond: Two Souls are serious, according to de Fondaumiere. He explained that Quantic Dream has a responsibility to the industry at large to make sure the PlayStation 3 exclusive shines as brightly as it can because the future of the medium may depend on it.
"Not only do we have a responsibility towards our employees, our shareholders, Sony--who's financing this project--but to a certain degree I think also towards the industry to succeed," de Fondaumiere said. "I hope that we're going to show that Hollywood talent brings something. That these actors have an incredible talent and that they're going to raise the bar in terms of what you consider as being the benchmark for characterization."
"Whether the game sells or not, it's not irrelevant, it's important; but it's less important. I think the minimum is that there is a critical consensus that this is the way forward."
Beyond: Two Souls launches October 8.

While transition offense isn't the Knicks' game and they like to play at a slower pace, they would be smart to take transition opportunities when they present themselves. According to Synergy, the Celtics were the 2nd-worst transition defense this year in terms of points per possession allowed.
Opponents shot 43.8% on transition threes against Boston. The Knicks ranked as the 8th best transition offense in PPP and shot 41.8% on transition threes, though the pace they play at is generally very slow. I'd be surprised if the Knicks came out running and gunning but they'd be smart to run a little bit if they have the chance to rebound long misses and push the ball.

Police believe it was an obsessive fixation that led to Dr. Julie Abbott's death.
Timothy McCloskey, the alleged shooter, was vying for Abbot's affections.
When she didn't give in, police believe McCloskey snapped.
Friday, police say McCloskey gunned down the 47-year old Abbott outside the building where she treated patients.
McCloskey allegedly met Abbott, his wife's employer, about a year ago.
"Her husband was writing letters and sending comments to this doctor seeking a somewhat of a romantic relationship with this doctor," Sgt. Gabe Trevino with the San Antonio Police Department said.
However, the interest was only one-sided and when Abbott didn't respond, love Letters quickly turned to bloodshed.
"The doctor was not reciprocating that same response to this particular suspect," Trevino said.
This tragic outcome is unusual, but the steps McCloskey allegedly took, are not.
Sam Houston State University professor Glen Kercher asked 701 random Texas adults last year if they had been stalked.
140 of them said they were victims.
"The definition of stalking refers to knowingly, willingly, committing a series of acts that are designed to instill fear in the victim," Kercher said.
The survey found those stalked received repeated or threatening phone calls, were spied on, or were waited for outside their home or work.
"He would call my friends and find out where I was going and show up wherever I was," one stalking victim said.
Cyberstalking has also become something to fear.
We searched for Cyberstalking on Google News and hundreds of results popped up. Most stories were about cases where cyberstalkers targeted popular networking sites like MySpace, Facebook and even YouTube.
These cases were reported, but the frightening reality is, many victims ignore a serious situation.
"We found that only about 43-percent of these crimes actually got reported to the police," Kercher said.
Here are some alarming statistics on stalking from the National Center for Victims of Crime:
-77 percent of female victims and 64 percent of male victims know their stalker.
-The average duration of stalking is almost two years.
-Weapons are used to harm or threaten victims in one out of five cases.
-If you think you are a victim of stalking, contact your local police department.

A simplified low-cost system designed for home use in the direct administration of high purity oxygen to a patient, utilizes a single adsorption column containing successive layers of adsorbent. The first layer is composed of a molecular sieve adsorbent for removal of water and CO2 from the air feed stream. The second layer is a molecular sieve adsorbent which preferentially retains nitrogen. The sequence and conditions of the several steps of the operating cycle are designed to recover a therapeutic gas stream of about 90% oxygen content.
1. In the generation and recovery of high purity oxygen from an ambient air stream in a system employing a single adsorption column, the method which comprises the successive steps of:
(a) introducing pressurized air into the column containing an adsorbent bed, said bed comprising in the direction of air flow thereinto a first shallow layer of an adsorbent effective in removal of water and CO2 followed by a predominant second layer of an adsorbent selective in sorbing nitrogen from admixture with oxygen; said bed having been brought to adsorption pressure prior to said initial air introduction with a previously obtained product stream of high oxygen concentration to bring the same form subatmospheric to slightly above atmosphere pressure;
(b) continuing said introduction of pressurized air into said bed without withdrawal of product therefrom until said bed is brought to a maximum pressure of several atmospheres;
(c) then discontinuing said introduction of pressurized air and withdrawing from said bed, in the same direction as that in which the feed air was introduced, a part of the gas product contained therein and collecting said withdrawn part in a storage reservoir;
(d) thereafter venting the bed to the atmosphere in a direction counter to air feed direction, thereby removing a portion of the contained nitrogen from said second adsorbent layer and part of the contained water and CO2 from said first adsorbent layer;
(e) next evacuating the bed in the same direction as in the preceding venting step (d) to remove remaining nitrogen, water and CO2 from the respective adsorbent layer; followed by,
(f) restoring the bed to slightly above atmospheric pressure for repetition of the defined sequence by introducing therein a portion of the product gas of high oxygen concentration from said storage reservoir.
2. The method as defined in claim 1 wherein said evacuation in step (e) is carried out for a time to bring said bed to a pressure in the range of about 100 to 300 torr.
3. The method as definded in claim 1 wherein step (f) is carried out under conditions to repressure the evacuated bed from step (e) to superatmospheric pressure in the range of up to about 6 psig.
4. The method as defined in claim 1 wherein step (c) is continued to the point at which the pressures in the bed and in the storage reservoir are equalized.
5. The method as defined in claim 1 wherein the adsorbent in said second layer consists essentially of pelleted sodium mordenite.
6. The method as defined in claim 1 wherein said product gas recovered in step (c) has an oxygen concentration of about 90%.
The present invention relates to non-cryogenic systems for recovery of oxygen from atmospheric air and is particularly concerned with the provision of a simplified low cost system for production of oxygen of high purity for direct medical administration.
Systems for separation of air by selective sorption to recover oxygen and/or nitrogen are well known in the art. Typically, most of these systems employ zeolite molecular sieve adsorbent for selective retention of nitrogen while recovering an oxygen-enriched product stream. Periodically, as the sorbent bed reaches a designed level of sorbed gas, the bed is desorbed and/or purged to remove contained nitrogen before being returned to on stream operation. The adsorption-desorption cycles rely chiefly on swing in pressure level of these steps in the operating cycle. Also, to maintain continuity of operation a number of such adsorbent beds are operated in parallel, so that while one bed is operating on the adsorption step of the cycle, companion beds are at various stages of regeneration.
Illustrative of well-known prior art systems proposed for separation of components of air by selective adsorption is that disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 2,944,627.
Numerous asserted improvements or modifications of the system described in the '627 patent are disclosed in the patent art. Among these are various sequences employing a vacuum desorption step for withdrawl of sorbed nitrogen from the adsorbent bed, as in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,155,468; 3,164,454; 3,473,296 and 3,797,201. The listed patents suggest the possible use of a single column for carrying out the disclosed process.
It has also been proposed in a number of patents to remove water and CO2 from the air feed prior to subjecting the same to selective adsorption for N2 --02 separation. U.S. Pat. No. 3,533,221 is illustrative of these. Preceding a nitrogen adsorption column the system employs two separate parallel alternately operating beds of sorbent for removal of water and CO2. The moisture and CO2 -laden beds are regenerated thermally; one of these beds being heated and then cooled under purge while the other is on stream. The nitrogen laden column is desorbed by vacuum, the desorbed gas as it is being withdrawn passing through the water-CO2 bed then under regeneration. Such operation sequence entails a complex arrangement of beds, valves and switching devices.
Pretreatment of the feed air in a separate bed to remove water and CO2 is also disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,796,022. The patent is more particularly concerned with operations wherein the desired recovered product is that obtained by desorption. Thus, in the case of air separation, wherein nitrogen is preferentially retained by the adsorbent bed, an elution step is had wherein the column is purged with nitrogen product gas in air feed direction, the purged product being withdrawn with aid of vacuum, and discharged to the atmosphere. In this manner, it is stated, the oxygen co-adsorbed with the nitrogen is eliminated, enabling recovery of high purity nitrogen by vacuum desorption applied at the opposite end of the column.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,280,536 describes an air separation system to increase the oxygen content of an enclosure, such as an entire room, to the range of 30 to 50% oxygen. While other known adsorbents for nitrogen are noted in the patent, including 13X zeolite, the stated preference is for 13X zeolite which has been partially substituted with strontium. The operating cycle is according to the principle of the aforementioned U.S. Pat. No. 2,944,627, and several hours are required to raise the room concentration to the 30% oxygen level. There is no indication in the patent of how the system could be employed to produce a product stream of high oxygen content, in the order of 90% O2. The disclosed operating cycle includes an initial step of pressurizing the column to the super atmospheric working pressure with feed air. Under these conditions it would be difficult, if not impossible, to obtain high oxygen recovery at 90% purity.
In recent years there has been a significant increase in the demand for small scale oxygen generators for medical uses, to replace conventional gas cylinders.
Among the objects of the present invention is to provide an inexpensive medical oxygen generator of simplified construction and operation, capable of being used in the home for production of an enriched oxygen product gas which can be administered to a patient directly, as by means of a mask.
The foregoing objective is achieved by the particular sequence and operating conditions employed in accordance with the present invention. A single adsorption column is employed, and the product gas (high in oxygen) is collected in a surge vessel to enable continuous product withdrawl and use during alternating on and off stream periods in the operating cycle. The column contains at its air inlet end a layer of an adsorbent effective in removal of CO2 and water from the feed air, over which layer the predominant adsorbent layer for selective nitrogen retention is placed. Prior to charging the feed air to the column in the adsorption step, the column is brought, by introduction of product gas, from vacuum oondition to an initial operating pressure slightly above atmospheric, at which time the feed air is continuously introduced through the column inlet until a pressure therein of several atmospheres is attained. A valve at the opposite end of the column is then opened and part of the gas contained in the column is thereby withdrawn to a surge vessel, from which vessel gas for desired use can be continuously withdrawn. The adsorbent column is then vented to the atmosphere in a direction opposite to that of the air feed, thus removing part of the adsorbed water and CO2 at the feed inlet end of the column, in addition to the removal of some of the adsorbed nitrogen.
Regeneration of the adsorbents in the bed is now accomplished by evacuation at the air feed inlet end, whereby the remainder of the nitrogen, water and CO2 are removed from the column. To return to on-stream operation the column is brought to atmospheric pressure or somewhat above using part of the oxygen-rich product gas from the surge vessel.
A preferred system for practice of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing.
The single FIGURE of the drawing is a process flow diagram of a preferred system for practice of the invention.
The main components of the system employed in practice of the invention comprise the vacuum pump 10 which also serves as a compressor, a single adsorption column 11, and the product storage tank 12. Pressure variations in the column during the operating cycle are achieved by operation of the valves in the gas flow lines leading into and out of the column. Certain of these valves are preset control valves; other valves are on-off solenoid valves controlled in known manner by a cam timer. In the illustrated embodiment, valves 15, 16, 17 are control valves; valves 20 to 25 are of the solenoid type. Column 11 contains at its air feed inlet a layer of molecular sieve adsorbent effective in removal of CO2 and water from the feed air, above which layer a deeper layer of a molecular sieve effective in selective adsorption of nitrogen is had.
At the start of the operation, column 11 and gas storage vessel 12 are slightly above atmospheric pressure. Air is pumped into column 11 by operation of vacuum/compressor pump 10, valves 15, 20, 23, being open; valves 21, 22, 24 and 25 are closed. Feed of air into column 11 is continued until the preset maximum pressure is reached. The preset maximum pressure advocated is at a selected point in the range of 35 to 65 psig (3.4 to 5.5 bars).
When the preset maximum pressure is attained the air feed step of the cycle has been completed, at which time valve 23 automatically closes and valve 22 opens, so that the pump 10 is by-passed. Also, at this same time valve 25 is opened for withdrawl of contained gas from column 11. Said withdrawn gas, composed of oxygen enriched air generated during the air feed step, flows through control valve 16 into storage tank 12. The flow of oxygen enriched air into the storage tank 12 will continue until the pressure in the storage tank 12 equalizes that of column 11.
In the next step column 11 is vented to the atmosphere, which is achieved by the closing of valve 25 and the opening of valve 24. The vented gas thus passing through and out of the column in a direction counter to the direction that the feed air was initially introduced into the column. During the venting step part of the sorbed nitrogen is removed from the column and in flowing through the adjoining layer of adsorbent helps to remove part of the water and CO2 that had been sorbed in that layer.
At the completion of the venting step, valves 20 and 24 are closed and valve 21 opened, thereby evacuating column 11 by the continued operation of pump 10.
When the preset vacuum has been attained in adsorption column 11, valve 21 is closed and valves 20 and 25 are opened, permitting flow of oxygen-rich product gas from storage tank 12 into column 11 in a direction counter to that of the initial air feed direction. In this step the pressure in column 11 is brought to superatmospheric level in the range of up to about 6 psig (= 1.43 bars) and the column is ready for introduction of feed air by closing valves 22 and 25 and opening valve 23 and repetition of the described cycle of operating steps. Product gas can be withdrawn from tank 12 for the desired medical administration during the entire operating cycle through control by valve 17.
The preferred adsorbent for removal of water and CO2 from the feed air are alumina, gels, 13X or 5A zeolite. The preferred adsorbent for selective retention of nitrogen, which has been found in practice to achieve good results, is pelleted synthetic sodium mordenite. Other adsorbents like Ca and/or Sr exchanged 13X zeolites may also be used.
The evacuation of the column is best carried out to about 100-300 torr. A full operating cycle may be carried out in about one and one-half minutes according to the format set out in Table 1, showing the solenoid valve positions during the cycle (0=open, C=closed).

By operation in accordance with the invention oxygen-enriched product gas of about 90% O2 content is obtained, which can be used directly for desired medical administration to the patient. While adsorption systems have been heretofore marketed for this intended purpose, these typically obtain a low recovery of oxygen from the feed air, in the order of about 30%, even when using multiple beds and numerous switching valves. Although in practice of the present invention only a single adsorbent bed is used, oxygen recovery of 55 to 60% is made possible because of the efficiency of the process employed.
For most efficient operation, the air inlet system should be provided with an after-cooler, as indicated at 30, to lower the temperature acquired by the air stream as a result of its compression by the pump/compressor 10. Element 30 may be in the form of a finned heat exchanger. Also, the withdrawl rate of the high oxygen content product from storage tank 12 may be set by a flowmeter, in known manner, as indicated at 31. A continuous withdrawal by the user can be achieved. Other features (not shown) common to systems for administration of medical oxygen may be incorporated in the system of the invention, such as air filters, bacteria filters, humidifiers and the like.

And here's the Dr Saturday write-up about them. And even more examples, including non-football sports.
They are pretty bad-ass, actually. But they might look less cool without the wispy smoke.
And here's the Dr Saturday write-up about them. And even more examples, including non-football sports.
They are pretty bad-ass, actually. But they might look less cool without the wispy smoke.
Those are pretty badass. The helmet logo is a bit... gimmicky, though.
As long as it's not my team (the wolverines).
are pretty terrible in my opinion. They were in serious need of a change about 20 years ago or more.
Gimmicky: yes. XFL-level gimmicky: not quite. But give them time.
That is all
All black uniforms usually look badass, and this is no exception.
that they didn't show what the new wrestling singlet will look like. ASU did just crown two champs a few weeks ago. as for the football uni's i like them. not too much going on and you can't dig too much on a uni that has "PT42" on it.
...I'm just not excited by a redesign that completely excludes the longstanding logo.
How could anyone get rid of Sparky?
They could've done a logo where Sparky tattooed the mustache on his finger.
1) Why do they have a trident on the helmet?
2) Why would a team that plays in a perpetually hot and sunny desert wear all black?
Arizona St>Sun Devil>Trident... that wasn't that hard
I thought the Devil had a pitchfork. After further google review, it's not clear cut.
The thing the devil is usually portrayed as holding is a trident, i.e. a three-pronged spear. In the vernacular, we usually call the devil's weapon a "pitchfork", which is really a farm implement for tossing hay, but w/e. "Fear the Fork" makes for a better slogan than "Fear the Dent".
Pitch fork-
Good work. It's posts like yours that separate MGoBlog from cesspools like MLive.
But thanks. ;-)
I mean, if I was really being scholarly, I should have gone into "tri" meaning 3, and the 3 prongs, etc., etc.....but that's not nearly as much fun as toy weapon pics.
"2) Why would a team that plays in a perpetually hot and sunny desert wear all black?"
They play almost all of their home games at night anyways.
Brick, I've been meaning to talk to you about that. You should find yourself a safehouse or a relative close by. Lay low for a while, because you're probably wanted for murder.
I may be in the minority, but I like Nike's uniforms (for the most part). I bet if I wore one, I could almost pick up some chicks.
I actually like Nike. Their jerseys,shirts and hats all look better than adidas. Adidas is a soccer brand. Can't wait to go back to Nike.
Good Lord, Justin Boren needs to get a haircut.
back in 1995. This looks like something out of the movie Any Given Sunday. I hate when team's get away from their traditional unis
It is not like there is a lot of tradition behind a Sun Devil helmet to begin with. If this were Penn.St, ND, or us it would be a F'ing travesty. They are in the Pac12 and on at 10:00 at night, any publicity is good publicity.
was that they were butt-ugly.
No one is gonna miss the maroon & yellow or the green & yellow.
Ya had to be a loyal fan to buy something in those colors.
I actually like the new unis a lot, except for the following
1) Weird rays/flames from the trident (which they call a pitchfork but w/e) - is it a pitchfork, or a rocket ship?
2) Gradient on the black uni numbers. Guh.
3) The black unis in general. They look kind of cool, but I'm sick of black for black's sake. It's been done, get over it. The maroon unis look great.
I'm okay with ditching Sparky from the helmet, it was a bit cartoonish and frankly didn't stand out on the field. The new fork has more pop and looks less outdated ("traditional" is good, "outdated" is bad).
I live in Phoenix and the ASU alums at work are generally pleased, though many agree with my dislike of the black unis.
Black for Black's Sake? Fellow Uni-Watch reader I take it?
Really, I think this was a downgrade. They had a recognizable look, now they will look like part of the Nike herd.
Actually not a reader of Uni-Watch. But I did come across the acronym BFBS on another blog.
I fully agree with the sentiment that BFBS is BS.
But not the webpage.
You get banned or something, in a previous life?
Edit: not responding to Gbdub, but ChuckWood-
You know, like Harvey the bunny.
But if that doesn't excite you, email Brian. Don't complain, just explain the confusing situation. Might just be a really odd, individual glitch with the site meltdown.
Anyone on the App can, I'm sure. But the deleted posts still show there too.
I wouldn't think you've been banned without an email; and without GOOD reason, that you'd remember. They lean heavily toward free speech, and let one hang themselves pretty much. That's why I said don't act mad, because it probably wasn't action against you, but a glitch. Think they stopped showing up right around the Malware disaster time? Not being that technical, that would be my uneducated bet.
I agree. I think they do a pretty good job. There are a few exceptions, but for the most part they are pretty decent looking. For this particular example, I actually like the maroon and white ones more than the black.
The devil/pitchfork logo was one of the more venerable and classic illustrational marks, and was truly original and distinctive. They've thrown that all overboard in favor of an already-dated flavor-of-the-month that is more at home in the Arena League.
It makes me wonder again: if there is a single athletic director in the country with the brains and the balls to tell Phil Knight—and his money—to go fuck himself?
Nike uniforms are almost always Arena League uniforms
I think the old logo looked kinda outdated and cheesy, but it definitely was unique. I like the new uni's other than a lack of any kind of logo whatsoever. They should have updated the old one instead of scrapping it altogether.
I like the trident logo on the helmet, although I would have put a sunburst behind it. I think Sparky had a little too much fine detail for a helmet. It looked ok up close, but in a typical line-of-scrimmage shot it was hard to make out the details.
Now the all-black uniform would be fine for Missouri or Southern Miss but it just looks stupid on ASU. Black is not one of their colors. Their colors are maroon and gold.
This. Sparky makes for a decent mascot, but there's too much detail for a helmet. The new pitchfork motif will show up better. If you look at the link to ASUs facebook page, it looks like a smaller Sparky will still be on the back of the helmet, next to the Pac 12 logo.
Oh geeze. Calm down it's Arizona St. God forbid a team gets new uniforms. You want to write a letter to the Senator while you're at it.
I'll concede that they aren't bad, but most of Nike's redesigns (Pro Combats, Michigan State's logo debacle, giving Baylor of all people the second Oregon treatment, and Oregon's earlier uniforms themselves) are terrible. Good to see that they're improving.
I like most of the logos-- the ASU on the sleeves is a bit much. The away uni looks pretty sweet, actually. My biggest complaint-- WHY THE BLACK??? What is this, the NHL circa 1997??
How many teams in the Pac10 is Nike going to force black upon??? Obviously Oregon (and OSU doesn't count), but Washington, ASU... there is NO black at all in their color scheme-- and yet Nike takes it there. What, did the child labor sweatshops in Vietnam screw up an order and produce 4x the intended black performance mesh?
If black isn't originally a school color, it shouldn't be a significant feature in a school's uniforms. Purdue with black uniforms? Absolutely. Iowa? Of course. Arizona State? Absolutely not.
Black is not a great color to wear in the desert, even at night.
I like the unis !
My only complaint is that there were not enough pictures of the volleyball unis
Hey man you know what would be fukkin wikked sikk? Fukkin blakk! Fukkin badazzzzzzzzz.
Fuck Nike, man....ASU is one of the few schools that could pull off that maroon and gold combo and make it look good and now everything's gotta be blakk. Kuz it's fukkin sikkkkk and wikked and badazzzz and the kidzzzz think it's totally fukkin sweeeeeeeeeeeet.
Sadly a lot of kids my age (and therefore the age of current recruits) feel this way.

continued "This was the fourth phase of the water project," Bartley said. "When I took office, I got a letter from EFC asking if we had finished the project up. I found out that we had $521,000 in grant money remaining for the meters and we were about to lose it. The metering part of this had never been contracted and it was a separate issue, so I felt that we should look at some other contractors."
Neither Bartley nor Fenimore were at the August meeting when the board approved the AES bid, as Bartley was recovering from surgery and Fenimore had handed in his resignation earlier that day.
Both referred to a meeting that happened in April with Michael Mascarenas at the county and Dodson but took away differing conclusions.
"During the meeting, Michael asked Dodson if he had a contract for this work, and he said no," Bartley said. "After that, I talked with several supervisors and Michael again to get an idea where we should go."
"The conclusion from that meeting was that this was a continuation of the water project and Jack Dodson had been the contractor for that project," Fenimore said. "I think that the town has hurt a key relationship over this."
Bartley also questioned the intentions of Fenimore using an email between he and Dodson which had been sent shortly after the decision had been made.
"Ken was having conversations with Dodson after the vote had happened," she said. "If you are representing the town on one hand and then acting as an agent on the other, I would think that you should recuse yourself from the matter. I also hear that there have been some who are using their connection to try and change the vote, but it has already happened."

Black Eyed Peas & Collard Greens (Video)
And just like that the holidays are over… well almost at least!
We still have New Year's around the corner and whether you are laying low (like my hubby and I) or planning to close out 2010 with a rockin' bang, I've got the perfect meal to jump start your year come January 1st.
This is one of those meals that just hugs you from the inside out.
The bacon adds a depth flavor that lends the soup a slow cooked taste while the greens and the beans provide us with all of the nutrients and energy we need to start this year out on the right foot!
I've got three more days in Jersey before we head back to California and believe me this dish will be on my menu come January 1st! I haven't been in the kitchen for nearly a month and am craving some clean and delicious home cooked food.
So until next year (I couldn't resist) I leave you with one last recipe (and video) for 2010.
Happy New Year everyone!! Can't wait to cook with you in 2011:)
Black Eyed Peas & Collard Greens
Yield: 4 servings
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 20-25 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
- 1 tsp of olive oil
- 3 slices of nitrate free bacon (I used 40% less fat), chopped up
- 1 onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 celery stalks, finely diced
- 2 15oz cans of black-eyed peas and the liquid they come in
- 2 cups of low sodium chicken broth
- 4 cups of collard, sliced into ribbons
- 2 sprigs of thyme
- 1 tsp of chopped rosemary
- 2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
Heat olive oil in a medium stockpot over a medium low heat and then add bacon. Allow to cook for about five minutes or until the bacon is browned.
Add in the onions and a pinch of salt, saute for about 3 minutes or until the onions begin to release some of their liquid before adding in the celery and garlic. Cook all the veggies for another five minutes or until they are fragrant and tender.
Add beans, broth, thyme, and rosemary to the pot. Turn the heat to high and bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Once simmering, stir in your greens. Cook for another 10 or fifteen minutes (depending on how tender you like your greens).
Stir in vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Enjoy!
Makes 5 cups – 4 – 1&1/4 cup servings

This reminds me of growing up and living in Georgia! My family had black eye peas and collard greens every Sunday. They cooked all day in the crock pot with ham hocks or neck bones (definitely not healthy). Gotta call my mom I'm homesick now!
Sandra – I can think of a lot of things that would be way worse to eat than some ham hock or neck bones;) – The all day version sounds amazing!
Cary -Thanks so much! Comments like this are a huge inspiration for me as well! Happy New Year right back at ya:)
Rhonda – I didn't realize it was called Hoppin' John… thanks for the scoop. Lots of luck in the new year!~
Just made this for lunch today, mmmmmm so good. Love the apple cider vinegar, however I love vinegar on anything. Thanks for a great recipe for a cold day!
Love this idea! Dani, you are a terrific inspiration for me and my family. Thanks for the great tips. Love beans and adore collards. Happy New Year to you and yours!
It's Hoppin' John! We make up a batch every New Year's day- it brings good luck in the new year
Actually, I make the traditional hoppin john (a Southern dish) which is black-eyed peas with rice and other toppings (e.g., onion, cheese, tomatoes). I will keep this in mind for a nice change of pace.
Happy New Year Dani!!
Amber – So glad you liked it! Thanks for coming back to let me know:)
Melinda – Your version sounds amazing… Happy New Year to you too!
AMAZING DISH! I made the mexican soup last week, and this dish tonight. We are running out of containers to store left overs in. I loved this recipe, and although I was hesitant on the bacon- it actually was a great touch. I made this with dried thyme and rosemary with no problem for those that were curious. I also baked some lightly breaded chicken to cut up on top.
Thanks Dani!!!!
