Heat and Humidity Relief - 06/06/13
Hottest Day of the Year So Far!
Today's high made it to 97 degrees with a heat index of 99! We tied the hottest this year. It was the hottest since 99 on September 12th. A cold front is bringing a cooler, less humid change...enjoy!
Low Rain Chances
The cold front dropping through Central Texas may come through mainly dry for most of the area. I'll hold on to less than a 20% chance of a shower through Friday morning. Rain totals, if any at all, will probably be measured in hundredths of an inch.
Break from the Heat and Humidity
The cold front will bring us weather that's not as hot and not as humid for Friday into Saturday morning. Dewpoints have been sticky and uncomfortable the last couple days in the mid to upper 60s. They'll fall into the upper 50s to low 60s making it feel much more comfortable. Temperatures have reached 90 or higher for 8 straight days now. Some areas may break the 90-degree streak Friday with highs in the upper 80s. I'm holding on to a high of 90 officially for Austin Mabry though. The most pleasant and comfortable time in the next week will be Saturday morning when we wake up to lows in the mid 60s!
Drought Monitor is Out
We continue to see very slow improvement in the drought conditions across Central Texas. Officially at Camp Mabry, we've only had 0.03" of rain this month, but some outlying areas have had much more. The Austin area continues in a Moderate Drought while parts of Williamson County remain in a Severe Drought.
Tracking Tropical Storm Andrea
After making landfall along Florida's Big Bend region, Andrea will cross over to the Atlantic in the next couple days bringing a swath of heavy rain through the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic. Track the storm with our KEYE-TV Hurricane Tracker here: http://keyetv.com/weather/features/hurricane-tracker/#.UbDe0tXjLq4

18_Kalamazoo - Michigan
The downturn in manufacturing and consolidation in the drug industry have hit Kalamazoo, Michigan. Hard. Now the city is mobilizing local wealth to make investments for the future. Southwest Michigan First, an economic-development group, has raised a $50 million venture fund expressly for financing life-sciences startups. The same group has rallied local resources to keep Western Michigan University's engineering school in town. Then there's the Kalamazoo Promise, a program funded by anonymous area donors that gives full college scholarships to every child who attends city schools from kindergarten through 12th grade. This year, it boosted enrollment by nearly 1,000 kids, which even heated up the housing market. Now other cities are calling to find out how they can replicate Kalamazoo's "community capitalism." "They all think there's some magic pill or angle," says Southwest Michigan First CEO Ron Kitchens. "It's money."

Avon Ultra Color Lip Crayon Coming Soon
If you're loving the flow of chubby lip pencils I'm sure you'll adore the upcoming Avon Ultra Color Lip Crayon ($8) these new twist up color lip pencil are infused with shea butter and vitamin E giving lips shimmery, high shine color.
They'll be available in eight shades this Fall from Avon!
You'd think I'd be a little tired of the ongoing release of chubby pencils as everyone seems to have one lately. But I have to admit I haven't yet grown tired of them.
Brands I'd wish would do one? Urban Decay, Bobbi Brown, and Guerlain!
How about you?
Tired of the repetitive chunky pencil theme?
Or do you want moar?
P.S. I'm finally caught up on Dexter. I got home around 11ish last night and proceeded to watch the last three episodes! SO good! They even added in Dexter's little training serial killer training sessions! Just not with his own kids but some random character they threw in. They resolved much of Dexter and Deb's conflict so I'm curious how this is going to pan out as I thought it was a shoe in that either Deb or Dex or both would end up getting caught somehow or killed or murdering each other (that kinda almost happened). I hate to rush it along but I can't wait to see how this all ends! Oh by the way someone needs to tell Joey to ease up on the bronzer.
8/12/13 10:51 Cj:
This is gonna sound nuts but my favorite lip crayon is the hard candy ones lol. Semi sheer, nice texture, and leaves behind a stain. What more could you want? Other than being able to buy em anywhere other than walmart lol
8/12/13 10:57 Linda:
Would love to try these…shea butter and Vitamin E? I'm in!
8/12/13 11:44 Sara:
If they have the same pigmentation as the Clinique Chubby Sticks Intense, then I'll have to check them out. I'm not too crazy about the chubby stick glosses that lack pigmentation. I prefer to use them as a sub for lipstick, so I have 2 Clinique ones that I use all the time.
8/12/13 12:47 Alisha Badillo:
I soooo agree with you that Quinn has got some heavy duty contouring going on this season and it just looks bad!! LOL… I wonder who thought that was a good idea
8/12/13 12:54 Tavia:
I'm a huge fan of Dexter series. I've watched every episode since the beginning. Mondays are my favorites for years just because I get to watch Dexter on my PC. Last night's episode with Hannah was so hot, I wonder what will happen next. Funny thing was that I was just thinking about Hannah 2 episodes ago just before she poisoned Deb & Dex but how come she got out of jail so fast cuz Harrison was a little boy when she went to jail and now he is still young. As far as I can remember she had a long sentence. Anyway I'm happy that this Dexter's season is in summer and not at the beginning of fall like every year.
8/13/13 17:25 Tavia:
This is exactly what I'm saying….she was in jail for no more than 2 years which makes the scenario a bit odd if you think about that she was convicted for murder. It would have made more sense to escape than be released.I guess we'll just have to watch and see as I know Deborah will hunt her down.
8/12/13 13:34 SusanT:
Muse, Joey definitely needs to ease up on the bronzer — he looks ridiculous! And did he lose a lot of weight or what? His face looks so gaunt, like he looks older and/or unhealthy — I'm worried about him. And what is it about Deb? Does ever man who meets her end up falling in love with her? Geez, I don't get it. Personally, I think she's rather unattractive in character in Deb and her personality is rather repellant; I don't understand how all these guys fall for her. And on top of it all, she's really unfeminine, that's what I don't get. What do you think?
8/12/13 14:06 SusanT:
I know, I hope Joey/the guy who plays Joey isn't sick; he doesn't look right. Deb looks pretty in the picture you posted, but she doesn't look like that on the show. And her mouth, the eff bombs, that is a huge turn off! I was disappointed to see Hannah turn up again; I've never liked her and I felt the chemistry between her & Dexter was off. And I cannot believe that (SPOILER ALERT) Zach killed Cassie — wow! My bf told me he heard there was going to be a spin-off of "Dexter" with a young kid as a Dexter-like character and that the spin-off was young to be way more bloody. Zach perhaps?
8/12/13 16:44 Tigress:
Quinn has been orange for a few seasons now. haha I actually really love Hannah and I'm stoked she's back. I'm still a little bitter that Lumen never made a return like I hoped she would at some point. *sniff*
8/12/13 17:43 Lulubelle:
Deb's hair looks seriously pretty in that picture
8/12/13 23:13 Nat:
Mmm, agreed! My hair is cut like that but mine just looks flat and dull, lol. Wish I could get it to look like that! 😀
8/13/13 14:09 Cindy Ramirez:
Dexter!!! So um I'm a little torn on this season. This whole Dr. Vogel bit is sorta bothering me. If she knows everything about Dexter and Deb, why don't they know about her? I've got a bad feeling about her, she's up to no good… Hannah. Oh Hannah. I was waiting for her return, her little story about running off and getting married to someone who could protect her and give her money caused a little eyeball rolling for me. And how in the hell Dexter and Deb pretty much went from Hating each other, then one hating the other, then back to loving each other just kinda throws me off. All of those emotions in one season? The little creep that Dexter is trying to "Help" is just going to come back and bite him in the arse. I'm very eager to see what happens too! I don't want it to come to an end yet, but I do want to know how it ends!!

Safer California Colleges and Universities
Despite periodic calls for effective prevention, college student drinking is still responsible for:
In producing its "Call to Action," the NIAAA Task Force on College Student Drinking asked the research community to develop rigorous studies that would identify efficacious prevention strategies. The Safer California Universities Project, involving 14 universities and using a randomized, control-group experimental design, developed and implemented a comprehensive community intervention aimed at reducing alcohol consumption and related problems at off-campus homes and apartments, which seems to have succeeded in doing so.
The participating colleges and universities include:
|CSU Chico
|UC Davis
|CSU Long Beach
|UC Riverside
|CSU Sacramento
|UC Santa Cruz
|CSU Fullerton
|UC Irvine
|CSU San Jose
|UC Los Angeles
|CSU San Luis Obispo
|UC San Diego
|UC Santa Barbara
Click on a school to visit their webpages dedicated to this project.
This competitive continuation application seeks funds to replicate the intervention with the former control campuses, while further developing the implementation to achieve even greater impact. It would also examine student and campus-level factors that may facilitate or mitigate the intervention's impact.
Future dissemination of the intervention will be made possible by the development of a "toolkit" designed to give both general and specific instructions for duplicating the program at other colleges and universities.
Principle Investigator: Robert F. Saltz, Ph.D.
The UC Irvine Health Education Center serves as the liaison for this systemwide project funded by Prevention Research Center. UCI is partnering with several community agencies to assist in this study. Please check our other pages for additional information.

please where I can change the setting or edit the registry to resize windows.
When I open any Folder, Notepad or any shortcut, it opens in a small Windows, and I have always to maximize it.
I pointed to the corners and stretched it. but after closing and re-open it, still same problem
I right clicked on top of Windows, and selected "Size" from the drop menue where the cursor changed to four arrows and stretched and max it, but after closing and re-open it, still same problem
Then I selected "Move" from the drop menue, but I can not stretch or move the windows, the cursor does nothing.
It is Not affecting all type of Programs and Files. It opens in full screen for .BMP, .jpg, Wordpad,wmplayer, Realply.
Thank you for your help.
Have you tried right clicking on the folder and select propertys then select maximized window
" It'll Get Ya When You Aint Lookin "
hi Bob,
yes I did. But when I close the windows then re-open it, it is back to the same problem. I also tried all the suggestions in old threads in this web, but nothing works.
How does one edit the registry to resize windows? I've been dying to know this for a while now!
Hi Faris,
I am Not a professional in computer, neither I claimed that. I am just a simple user and "may be" I can deal with minor problems if I told how to do it. I mainly rely on the restore syst, but it has been erased and the new ones have the same problem.
I encountered such a situation before. I first spend a lot of time searching on the Internet. Some times I was lucky and fixed the problem. In the majority of the cases I was not. Therefore I post a question. People can tell that I am not in this field. They were more attending in their help, very humble, and a high class in their manner and attitude.. Also giving addresses to look more information and follow up on that. So far with their help I fixed every problem. Every one appreciate such kind of good decent human been. We are in USA do not jump on a miserable opportunity trying to insult people buy implying how stupid they are because they are not in this field in order to boost a sick image to show how professional we are. Rather kindly we extend our hands doing our best to help them. If you think I am stupid to show what a professional you are, may be you should wrote some thing real professional to solve the problem like others always try to do. This is a good forum with a decent reputation. Try with a real compassion to rise up to its level by being helpful and learn from it.
If you have any other shortcuts to that program , you should change them to maximized window as well.
" It'll Get Ya When You Aint Lookin "
Also here is another solution
get your folders to open the way you want every time Via the registry
" It'll Get Ya When You Aint Lookin "
compassion, what was all that about? I'm sorry if I seemed to say anything bad to you or offended you, it was a serious question, I really wanted to know how to change the registry to keep the same window size every time. I wasn't trying to insult you or anything like that.
Why would you think my post was aimed at saying something bad about you?
The registry does influence Window sizes but I've done "before and after" snaps and you get a whole lot of number differences to wade through - not at all easy.
From similar problems I've experienced, when you change something in Windows it alters the registry settings anyway, so there's a chance that both the sizes and the registry entries will still revert back afterwards - if you see what I mean.
I don't know the reason for this. I've read that holding down Ctrl key when you close Windows can help (try this for both "maximised" and "pulled out").
A program called WinSize is another workaround (I think it's still free and it works well).
Poking my big nose in, I know most of the bad names and Faris_B is not one of them. I feel sure it was a genuine question.
Thanks Derek for backing me up. Why would he/she have taken it as an insult? Someone in my family keeps playing some games that resize my IE window to be full screen when in the small window or "restore" option, which is opposed to "maximize" and I hate this. I have to take a screenshot of the old window size then match it up to the current window, yeah, I know, it's a bit obsessive, but I need the same exact window size, what I was thinking of doing, is finding th exact registry key and just exporting it to a .REG file and then importing it when the need arises. I already use this system for a few other places in the registry. I found something under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Kodak\Imaging\etc and has something called WindowSize followed by a bunch of numbers but I doubt this is the IE or folder window size. I already know about the holding down the CTRL key thing though.
Yeah, I know what you mean. Other than doing that long winded before & after on the registry (and all that follows) I know of no obvious way round it. I think the entries are well scattered and it's hard to determine which ones to change. I too have bat & reg files that do all sorts of things.
I'm much more familiar with W98SE but the program I use, although ancient, (1999 for W95) works just fine on W98SE and is very easy to use, this one:
You just open the Window at the size you want then tag it on the program's list and save it. It even works on
OE emails/Properties/Details/Message Source (which otherwise stays small on all machines as far as I know).
The only problem is whether it would work on ME but I find it hard to see how it would mess up anything if you care to try it. I think the registry in ME is likely to be the same as W98SE in this respect.
There may newer similar programs around (I think one was mentioned in this post somewhere) but may not be free.
Faris , I am very sorry, I misundertood you [stupid me for sure]. I was unfair to you. I do appologize.
Bob, thank you very much, this what I need. It solved the Folders problem.
Name: NoSaveSettings
Value: change it to 0 or 1
Restart the computor.
Mine was set to 1. I changed it to 0. Now it works fine. I resize the Window, and it maintains this setting until I change the size again.
However, I still have the same problem only with Note pad. I wonder if it has a seperate value or setting, or some thing wrong with Explorer. I will keep trying.
I thank every body input. You are right guys, I shoul not misinterpret Faris respond. Sorry again Faris, I shot at you without compassion.
I wonder what made me forget that registry tweak. I used to have it toggling on and off with batch files (stopped the kids messing things up). The downside is that if there is any hiccup that somehow changes your folder settings then they will stick that way instead. No problem, you temporarily change the value back then reset sizes.
NotePad is a known problem. The only way forward is to try that ancient program I mentioned to Ferris. On W98SE it does fix NotePad but it has to be pulled out to full before saving, rather than maximise. I've never tried program on ME so it has to be at your own risk (pretty low I'd say).
delete help file and temp file
I'm not the original poster but out of curiousity I tried deleting all but Notepad.exe itself and and made no difference on my W98SE. I couldn't find any temp file.
Open an explorer window...don't maximize it, just tag the lower right corner with your mouse & pull it to the desired size...now close it. Now open another explorer window - what size is it?
This space for rent
Try going to start/programs/accessorys/right click on notepad/propertys/and in the run column change it to Maximized window
Hope this helps
" It'll Get Ya When You Aint Lookin "
I liked that Bob - amazing how easy it is to miss the obvious. Worked on mine (although as it happens I prefer it minimised LOL).
yes, i did that for Notepad but it does not maximize. However, i have a lot of problems more than what i thought. One of them the restore sys stop working[it runs, but at the end it says "cant restore to that restore point"]. Also problem with Recycle bain, syst slows down, freezing, strange things etc. I think i need to work on the restore sys. were the restore point dont have the latest problems. I am going to put new post this page getting big] after making a thourogh checkup.uninstall all softwares etc. I thank every one for their input.

Supply Chain
Going Global with Brand Security
Posted: January 15, 2008
page 3 of 4
Branding: A growing trend today is creating code images with the look and feel of the brand, designed to meet its unique requirements. Techniques include unique fonts and graphics, colors and special additives for laser marking, along with a mix of overt and covert marking.
In-line verification and compliance: The need to verify code accuracy and repeatability is vitally important in brand protection efforts, so a manufacturer knows (and can verify) what codes have entered the supply chain. Often this requires high-quality results printed at high production line speeds.
Production line controls: Production line controls are often required to create "parent-child" relationships by tracking items into shipping cartons and shipping cartons into cases. Production line controls actually monitor each item as part of the production flow and keep accurate counts while assigning unique identifiers in the process. If required, the controls can interface with in-line vision systems to validate code accuracy or to read and print downstream.
Real Time Protection
Verify Brand and 3M partnered to offer customers the additional capability of confirming product authenticity, location and tracking of products via the Web using secure mass serialization technology.
"Brand owners are looking for a product security solution that is both comprehensive and provides more real time information with which to address their significant brand protection and supply chain issues," said Bill Markovitz, marketing development manager, 3M Security Systems Division. "We believe that the combination of 3M's extensive materials security technology and the innovative, Web-based technology from Verify Brand will provide our customers a market-leading solution."

The President's Speech
I recently saw the acclaimed film, "The King's Speech", based on a true story about the challenges faced by King George VI of England, who suddenly ascends to the throne when his older brother Edward VIII abdicates his kingship to pursue his one true love interest—a still married (once divorced) American woman. Unfortunately, however, for his unprepared younger brother Albert—"Bertie" as he is known to his family and friends—history and fate have forced him to confront the childhood problem he has had of stammering when trying to speak his mind—especially when addressing the public.
In one particularly gut-wrenching scene, the would-be king chokes royally when delivering a message from his father, King George V, to an assembled stadium of thousands of loyal subjects. Albert begins to work on his "speech problem" with an unorthodox therapist by the name of Lionel Logue who goes on to coach King George VI through some of the most important speeches ever delivered during World War II.
As an inspirational speaker and speech writer myself, this compelling narrative got me thinking about our own fearless leader, President Barack Obama, and the State of the Union address he will deliver to the nation and the world.
And just as "Bertie" suffered from a communications challenge at a most difficult and trying time in world history, many believe that "Barry" is also hobbled by a "speech problem" that 's afflicted him since moving into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
As a young, vibrant United States Senator, Barack Obama used a gift of communication unseen in American politics since President Ronald Reagan left the national stage some twenty years ago. When Candidate Obama pursued the highest office in the land, he often used lofty rhetoric, soaring oratory and symbolic imagery that captured both the imagination of the American people and the presidency of the United States with 365 electoral votes. Since then, though, many believe that Obama has lost the voice that had endeared him to millions during the magic of the 2008 campaign. To add insult to injury, others have even called him "tone deaf" to the will of the majority, a veritable death knell for any elected official. With rising poll numbers, however, and a string of recent legislative victories that have produced several weeks of good press, it would be premature, at best, to count this president out of the race to 2012.
The president's recent successes, however, have helped to reassure his standing with the public, while bolstering his political prospects for the future. Moreover, with his impending speech to the nation, President Obama has, once again, positioned himself as a political phoenix "rising from the ashes"—that is, if he can get his mojo back with this all-important address.
To that end, were I in the position of coaching him through this speech, as Lionel Logue was privileged to do with King George VI, I would admonish President Obama to remember these three key points as he ambles up to the podium on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.
1. Tell Us What You're Going to Tell Us.
Mr. President, as you prepare to address the nation at a time of rising unemployment, consumer confidence at historic lows, and your political opponents doubting your very resolve to stare down evil where you find it, remember that your audience (which includes billions of people around the world), expects you to "tell the truth, shame the devil, and let the chips fall where they may." As such, you should start your speech by laying out, very clearly, what your aims are for the nation. Be concise and unequivocal with regard to the message you would like to be remembered long after the history books are written. Whether it's the issue of jobs, the economy, bipartisanship in Congress, or war around the world, be up front about what you want the American people to consider and don't back down from your positions. You, sir, are the President of the United States, and the world's greatest bully pulpit belongs to you—so use it!
2. Tell Us.
As leader of the free world, the bulk of your State of the Union Address should deal with the broad themes that you laid out both during your campaign as well as your time in office. Just as importantly, this is precisely where you should begin to reemploy some of the same oratorical genius we all had a chance to see and experience during your historic run for office. Use your time at the speaker's well to harken the nation back to an era where we believed that anything was possible for an America that committed itself to a goal. Just as President John F. Kennedy used his special address to Congress to marshal national support to send a man to the moon and bring him safely back to the earth, you too, Mr. President, have the opportunity to rally the country around an agenda that aims to leave for our children a more prosperous nation than the one that we have inherited. Please, Sir, address the looming deficit crisis that portends to sink the ship of state if we don't get a handle on it, and fast! No longer can we continue to pile up unsustainable debt that will lead to future generations of Americans being born in perpetual servitude to our creditors. Furthermore, the American people would love to hear from you a realistic plan to get those who want a job back to work, helping them to restore the honor and dignity that comes with an honest day's labor. After all, if millions of people remain jobless come November 2012, you may very well find yourself unemployed the following January.
3. Tell Us What You Just Told Us!
One of the greatest lessons to be learned when communicating to others is the importance of "repetition, repetition, repetition." Famed American author and businessman, W. Clement Stone, once observed: "You affect the subconscious mind by verbal repetition." Mr. President, consider the very real fact that most people have to hear a message many times over before it sinks into their psyche. Instead of speaking in the long-handed, professorial style in which we have been accustomed to hearing from you, try short, pithy phrases that underscore the central thesis of your speech. And then, after you have sufficiently driven home the messages you want us to take away from your address, tell us again... and again... and again!
And finally, Mr. President, as you set your writing pen down and prepare to pick up a microphone, never forget the unique role that only you can play in uniting the nation as one—through the power of the spoken word. In doing so, you will be more than prepared to be the recipient of the greatest introduction known to humankind: "Mr. Speaker...The President of the United States!"

This cream dense but not greasy, this is the best moisturizer i have used. It contain no harmful fragrance, it is very mild and low scent but it makes skin so soft and smooth. I would highly recommend this product.
The Reviva body lotion smells softly of pink gray fruit. It also keeps my skin moisturized. This lotion absorbs well and do not leaves any residue. It leaves my skin really soft, this is the best lotion i have ever used. It has arrived very quickly and the price is good.
This moisturizing lotion smells like perfume, it does not make my skin feel any dry. It no only softens skin but reduces pain in my legs and feet .

a HUGE thanks to the Tomball L1 cert staff this weekend. You guys and (super gal Sarah) were awesome! Thank you all for a wealth of knowledge and tools to become a better athlete!!!!
Just finished my level one cert @ norcal. Can not imagine a better staff of trainers they all brought something different to the table which kept it interesting and fun. The facility was awesome. And if Miranda should change professionsmay I recommend teaching. By the way my wife now has a crush on pat barber.
Thanks to all the instructors that were at Rouge this weekend! I leaned a ton and am more motivated than ever to achieve my fitness goals and hopefully help other achieve theirs as well. Also it's nice to meet people you are admire, and walk away from meeting them knowing they are as cool as you hoped they would be! Thanks again!
Qué fin de semana maravilloso, un montón de información valiosísima. Increíble experiencia en L1 cert, Mexico City Crossfit reebok SF. Todo estuvo excelente, el grupo, el lugar, los anfitriones, la información pero lo mejor de todo fueron los coaches!! Me enamoré de todos! Muchísimas gracias por compartir toda su experiencia. La tecnocumbia, el hielo en la espalda y el bjj de Carlos. El calcetín sucio de Maggie... no voy a olvidar nunca los tips y me muero por empezar a aplicar todo lo que ahora sé!! Gracias!! Un mensaje a Ecuador,son super afortunados tienen al mejor coach de la historia, Carlos Andrade!!!
All of the instructors at King of Prussia were fantastic! Couldn't have asked for a better group of people to be taught by or a better group to learn with! I had a fantastic weekend and am sad it is over, guess I'll just have to come back for my level 2 and hope to see you all there ;)

I just completed my level one at NorCal crossfit in San Jose with hands down in my opinion the dream team of crossfit. All of my coaches were as knowledgable as it gets.I'm ten times the crossfitter I was when I stepped inside that massive box. Big thanks to all of you guys, anytime you're in New York look me up I'm down for a BRO SESH anytime. Thank you again it was incredible
I'm sad it's over! Thank you so much for all your time and energy Norcal Crossfit! The lectures were awesome and very entertaining, especially when Pat would describe his feelings on Heavy Weight days! LOL.." A little bit of pee shoots out?!?! What??!?!? hahahahaaa!!! Awesomesauce!
Hell yeah!!! To the crossfit instructors in Miami, Big Chuck, J-Mac, Coach Andy, Nuno, the Super Girls Dana, Jenni and Leah! You rock!! Thank you for cover so much material, explain so well all the aspect of movement, coaching and performance all of you make this weekend a awesome experience!! Thanks
Awesome job by the Reston instructors (Joe, Nicole, Andrea, Gretchen, Steve, Chris & Matt) this weekend. Learned a lot and anxious to use my new knowledge not only for myself but for helping others!
Amazing weekend!! I learned so much more than I could have possibly imagined. The instructors at Refinery in Idaho, worked together with such syngery, I can only imagine that they all have such a strong passion and enthusiam for Crossfit that they are somehow connected at a higher level. No matter, I am so inspired and impressed!! I hope to go forward and do you all proud!!
Ha! We got Matt! It was awesome!
Fantastic job at NorCal CrossFit all the instructors were amazing and filled with energy. Such an all star crew with Jason, Neal, Pat, and Miranda leading the way thank you for all your help time and effort you put into this. Way to represent NorCal!
Best coaching/seminar staff ever at NorCal CrossFit in San Jose! Very enlightening experience; Awesome!!
This story from Wind River Reservaion is among the best Crossfit stories ever! I thought I had heard them all- this one goes over the top.
Best cert ever, thank you all in CrossFit Santa Fe, special thanks to, Erik, Maggie, Lance, Carlos, Ricardo and Elsa for all your support, best group and keeping moving foward....
Jonathan Carreon.

Un gran fin de semana, lleno de conocimiento, prácticas, lecciones y sobre todo experiencias unicas.... excelente grupo de instructores, y nuevo grupo de amigos.... que orgullo pertenecer a esta comunidad.
Thanks to the team at CrossFit Virtuosity in Brooklyn - I had a blast! Coaches Mike G, Bethanie, Keith, Jen, an Dre were excellent instructors and I took a lot more out of the course than I thought I would. I look forward to putting all that knowledge to good use.
I wish the rest of the Brooklyn crew, particularly Team Meatball, luck in their future training endeavors. I met a lot of good people out there and I wish them the best!
Shout out to NorCal Crossfit and coaches we had in San Jose! Amazing Job
This weekend at rouge was amazing, I am so excited to take the tools I learned over the weekend and apply them back at our box not to mention Getting to spend the weekend with amazing athletes and coaches and the people who make up the CrossFit community! This weekend was truly one that will never be forgotten :) thanks to all the trainers!
Big thanks to all instructors @ Rogue this weekend. It was amazing to learn from such great trainers and equally amazing at how much time they were willng to spend to make sure you got a movement down. Great crew, just wish there were more time to learn from them all. Thanks again to all of you.
How is it that there is nothing about Veteran's Day?
Great job to Mike, Stephanie, Keith, Jenn, and Dre at Crossfit Virtuosity this weekend. The coaching tips learned not only helped my mechanics but I feel confident I can help others. Thanks to my training partners; Rachael from CT, Heather from NY, and Joe from IRL!
i am a native American physician and level one trainer in NC. the crossfit video touched me deeply and gives me one more reason to be glad that i have crossfit in my life. my motivation to keep spreading the health and lifestyle benefits of crossfit has been renewed.
WHOO WHOO! Shoutout to the Tomball crew: Speal,Sarah, the Daves, Hollis, and Matt... couldn't have had a better time! You guys truly were amazing and reminded me how awesome our community is. Thanks again for all of your hard work and dedication. Truly the high point of my short CrossFit experience. WE ARE CROSSFIT!Hey Speak, Hoosier clap!
I will have to admit that I wasn't expecting the amazing weekend I was fortunate enough to share with all of those who attended at NorCal Crossfit. Thank you kindly to: Pat, Michelle, Kelly, Miranda, Neil and Jason for committing yourselves to the training that you all do and sharing your passion. You made it all easy to understand by keeping it super simple.
I learned a **** ton, and am glad that I'm now formally exposed to the proper way of doing the 9 fundamental moves and a more in depth look at the philosophy, reasoning and logic behind Crossfit.
All of the instructors/teachers there are a prime example of what Crossfit is, you can tell they eat, live and breathe it.
Thank you kindly all again. Take care!
P.S. Finding me in the group photo is like finding 'Where's Waldo'
Sorry Bethanie!!! I called you a totally different name in my post....Rhabdo must be setting in from all those muscle up attempts..
Crossfit King of Prussia completely rocked Level 1 this weekend. Thanks so much to the superior professionalism of Joe and the entire staff. I was excited to attend and was not disappointed. "Don't give up the Fight"
Just finished this past week in kuwait. It was awesome...Hopefully i passed the written test. The instructors were awesome and were very helpful, they passed on a lot of useful information.

Shout out to the L1 staff that just got done at CrossFit Refinery in Boise, ID. It was awesome and the amount of things I learned was crazy! I'm horrid with names or I'd name them all off haha. I also learned that Fran done with 45 lbs dumbbells and ring pull ups is a new beast!
Thanks to the trainers at NorCal for an awesome experience this weekend. I gained so much personally, and hope to apply it professionally, and am so grateful for the experience! I even used some of Miranda's nutrition lecture points in my health coaching session with a client tonight! All of you were engaging and funny and made the weekend fly by!
Wind River. Amazing. Thank you for this HQ.
Un fin de semana genial, aprendí mucho de los entrenadores de Crossfit así como de mis compañeros. Pensé que sería complicado por el idioma entender el curso nivel 1, pero la traducción fue muy buena. Mil gracias a Maggie, Erik, lance, Carlos y la chica que asistió al grupo, todos hicieron un excelente trabajo,. Espero seguir creciendo como instructor y asistir a más cursos de ser necesario. Pero bueno primero a esperar los resultados del examen.... Éxito a todos
I was there when that video was made. Way beyond my expectations. Mike and Cody, I'm proud of you both!

Great, humbling experience all around. It's amazing how much information can be effectively fit into two days.

Crossfit Cert at KOP was an incredible experience. Thanks so much to Rudy for keeping me honest, Mel for the muscle up progression, Austin's teaching us about nutrition was great!, dancing man when the group wouldn't ask any questions, Aimee your box is amazing!, Joe you made everyone stay relaxed. If you are thinking about doing this do it It was the best $1,000 I have spent in a long time!
Great weekend at King of Prussia Level 1! Coaches did an awesome job!! Thank you
I spent two amazing days in Parma. Thanks to Karl, Matt, Steve, Denise and Fede. You guys made me proud to be a part of this community. Hope to see you soon.
Este fin de semana fue una experiencia inigualable, realmente nos transmitieron la pasión por el Crossfit a niveles que desconocía, los mejores Coaches de la historia gracias Erick Preston, Carlos Andrade, Maggie Dave, pero sobre todo a Lance y a Ricardo por sus magnificos consejos y enseñanzas, ya siento que mejoré mas de lo que esperaba, desde México les prometemos a toda la comunidad de Crossfit que van a estar escuchando mucho de nosotros en los próximos años.
Level 1 at KOP was awesome. Thanks to all the instructors you were great. Austins enthusiasm was infectious!
I had an awesome weekend at CrossFit KOP and feel very well prepared to start coaching! The instructors brought a great level of enthusiasm to the group. I'm even more excited about CrossFit now, which I didn't think would be possible!
Nor Cal was an awesome place to train and meet other Crossfiters. The coaches were amazing and took extra time with people who really needed it. It was energetic always entertaining. Not only walking away with coaching tools and cues but areas to improve my own technique. Next best part watching the guys and Miranda work out at lunch. AMAZING. If you can call a WOD beautiful that's what it was watching them workout. Even if your not going to be a coach i recommend this course! Thank you Jason and team!
Outstanding video. I grew up on a family farm located near two reservations in Nebraska and been into Crossfit since 2007 or so. I grew up playing with Native kids and grew to love their adventursome spirit and strength. It is amazing how Crossfit can change lives. Hopefully, the leadership of those Native American Crossfitters will begin a fundamental change in how diet, fitness and heath is viewed on other reservations around the country.
To all the Vets out there. Thanks to you and your families for your sacrifice and service.
NOR CAL Lever 1 Cert was nothing short of spectacular! Had a great time and learned so much. Great seminar staff! Im totally stealing Jason's "pop,lock and drop it" med ball clean technique! Shout out to Pat! That dude cracked me up!
Gracias a todos, compañeros, hosts y en especial a los coaches tan buenos y capacitados que nos compartieron clara y amistosamente sus conocimientos, es un honor haber sido su alumno.
Mexico City ROCKS!!
Thanks 2 everyone, specially the coaches Maggie, Erik, Lance & Carlos
I appreciate all the effort driven into the whole understanding of every subject in the course and out of it, you guys made this course the very best, smooth and quite interesting!
Hope to pass the test but so far i know i learned a lot and im really happy i took the course.
Again, THANKS!!
I was so inspired after completing my level1 cert course this weekend at Rogue fitness that I immediately drove three hours home, knocked on my neighbor's door, punched her square in the face and made her do "Cindy". No, that didn't really happen. But I am inspired. I am confident that I got what I paid for. I am positive that the integrity of my foundations as a trainer is substantially improved. So thanks again to all you instructors for your careful, skillful instruction. I had a great time!
Awesome eye opening weekend at the Boise Level 1 Cert! Shout out to Kurtis and the rest of the amazing and incredibly knowledgeable staff that made this weekend such a great learning experience. Also shout out to Rory for being an awesome model and hands down the strongest chick I've ever been around in person! Always nice to be around a chick that makes you feel like you should probably start training a lot harder.
Thanks a bunch!
Great team of Coaches!! The weekend ran very smooth. Coach Chuck was masterful in leading the Miami course.
I flew in from New York just for the weekend to take the course and it was 100% worth it.
A BIG Thank you to all the Coaches and Students who in one way or another added to my further development in CrossFit.
Big shout out to the Rogue Level 1 training staff this weekend. I cannot imagine a better group of trainers. The knowledge and ability of each one of you is simply amazing! Thank you for the hard work and dedication that you put in to making each one of us better! The crossfit community is lucky to have you all.

awesome weekend with a truly inspiring and energetic staff in Bridgeport, PA at the L1 - couldn't have asked for a better crew!
Had a great weekend at NorCal Thanks to
Miranda: for keeping it funny, and not letting us nerd out
Jason: for going out the way to make sure everyone felt welcome.
Pat: for bringing the intensity, and pushing me through fran.
Neal: for correcting me, and finding the right technique
Kelly: for taking the time to give insight on affiliates.
Michelle: for all the great examples, and the energy all the way through.
to the class: for the atmosphere and energy, seldom have I gotten chills like I did seeing the entire class willing Sonny through his fight with Fran.
Thank you to all the coaches at Rogue Fitness in Columbus Ohio. Eric, Joe, Lindsey, Spencer, Doug an Abi were all great coaches and each improved my technique or coaching ability in some aspect. Coach Doug Chapman, however, was one of the funniest and most entertaining coach that I've ever worked with. Thank you, again, to everyone.

Big thanks to Crossfit Brisbane! Doug, Tracey, Taryn and Ollie you were all awesome! Learnt a lot to take away with me about my own technique and helping others! It was a great two days. Thanks guys!
Thanks for the awesome time and coaching at the level 1 cert at NorCal crossfit. I was very impressed with the high level of knowledge of all the coaches and the info(even the nerdy stuff)was taught with professionalism and humor. Who likes taking tests, but they even reduced that stress with funny personal stories. Thanks to Miranda,Jason,Neal and Pat, excellent presentations and coaching on the breakout sessions. A special shout out goes to Michelle for really breaking down the deadlift,SDHP,and med ball clean,and to Kelly for talking me into stripping weight during the middle of Fran (it must have started looking ugly). Again thanks to all,awesome time.
the L1 staff at crossfit roots were amazing! I learned so much, and I was an honor being trained by Matt Chan.
The weekend at Rogue was amazing! Abi, Lindsey, Doug, Joe, Spencer and Eric were excellent instructors. I learned something from every lecture and trainer. Lindsey, I hope you enjoyed the O'Connor life story as much as I did telling it. Doug, Wile E. Coyote and Bruce Lee have nothing over you. Best wishes to group five. All of you were great! To Eric, It was an honor to watch what you do for a living. I will never forget this weekend.

WOW awesome Level 1 Cert at Crossfit Norcal. Miranda, Jason, Pat, Neal, Michelle and Kelly your enthusiasm and team spirit was infectious! It's amazing how much information and how many squats can be put into a weekend. There were so many memorable moments, but I would have to say the highlight was everyone in the box rallying around Sonny and cheering him on. I have always heard that is what Crossfit is about and we saw and put it into action. Thank you for the great experience.
it was well worth the drive to crossfit Norcal this weekend. Not only to Learn so much but to be taut by an amizing group of people/teachers/athletes. I felt blessed to be taut by some of the fittest in the world!
P.S I hope Jason and neil didnt get to mad when pat threw out some of my numbers.
hope to see you guys in the games one day
BIG THANK YOU to Chuck, J-Mac, Jenni, Leah, Coach Andy, Dana, and Nuno at the I Am Crossfit in Miami. It was great to learn from such a knowledgable team. It exceeded my expectations and I will always remember the coaches, the class and the progressions. Thank you!
CPC in Morristown, great work by Dennis, Russel and James. Great course that all should attend. The instructors were knowledgeable and approachable with a great knack of passing on all the information. Plus, I did not realize James was as big as he is.
The Certification Staff at King of Prussia were amazing! The Level 1 course was one of my best uses of both time and money. I have never been more excited to be a member of the CrossFit Community!!!
Huge shout out to the Boise CLF1 coaches crew. You guys were so motivational and gave me more than I could ever have imagined I'd get in two days. I want to thank Jesse personally for voluntolding me to get Fran done with 45lb dumbells and rings too. Awesome seminar guys.
A huge thank you to the whole staff at CrossFit Roots! It was amazing, fun and something I'll carry with me the rest of my life! You guys are all World Class, Thanks again!
Shout out to all CrossFit Singapore participants! Especially to our coaches Jami, Nolan, Simon, & Juria, you have taught us patiently, and really well! Very inspirational.
It was an awesome weekend. Maraming salamat!
La verdad no pude regresar mas contento y satisfecho con toda la experiencia vivida en el seminario.
Coaches increibles, atención personalizada, nos corregian en realidad y comprometidos con nuestro aprendizaje. Un ambiente fenomenal de camaraderia y compañerismo con amistades que parece que duraran por muchos años.
Gracias Lance, Maggie, Erik, Ricardo y Carlos
GREAT weekend in Boise at the Level 1 cert. Kurtis, Nadia, Rory, Chris, Conner, and Jesse did an amazing job! Thanks Guys!
Awesome Level 1 this past weekend at NorCal CrossFit! Miranda, Michelle, Kelly, Jason, Pat and Neal were knowledgeable, engaging and pretty funny! A huge thanks again to all of you guys! Come down to Brethren CrossFit for a WOD!
M/ 38/ 134 lbs/ 5'-6"
I did a different WOD I read from CrossFit Metropolis:
4 rounds of: (Rx is 5 rounds - but I was spent after 4 and my grip was really gone)
3 B.W. Bench Press
3 dead hang pullups
5 B.W. bench press
5 dead hang pullups
Max reps of BW bench press
Max reps of pullups - done in any way (kipping, buterfly, strict, etc.)
Score is total of all rounds of max efforts
1st Round: bench:16 pullups: 33
2nd round: bench: 13 pullups: 32
3rd round: bench 11 pullups: 29 (grip was really going - i was doing single kipping after about 22)
4th round: bench: 8 pullups: 23 (grip was really going on this one.. doing single kipping after about 17 - I should have put tape on the bar and my hands for the last 2 rounds)
Total Bench: 48
Total Pullups: 117
total score: 165
Total reps with the 8 reps strict form before each max effort:
Total Bench: 48 + 32 = 80
Total Pullups: 117 + 32 = 149
total score: 165 + 64 = 229

Espero que se forme el grupo de Facebook para para seguir en contacto con los buenos camaradas que hicimos....si alguien sabe de el nombre del grupo, avíseme por favor.
Saludos a todos!
Had such an amazing time at Rogue crossfit attending the CFL1 this past weekend. The seminar staff Joe,Lindey,Doug,Spencer,Eric,and Abi were all amazing!!!! Huge thanks to them!!! To Rogue for hosting!!! And to the people I met!!! I feel like I really do have a much better understanding of what it takes to be a coach.
L1 course in Boulder was exceptional in all ways. Justin, Matt, Zacksx2,Cherie, and everyone from Roots were awesome. I spent over a decade of my life coaching gymnastics and coaching other coaches. The big takeaway wasn't what I expected at all (mechanics). It was real coaching and more about how to apply the mechanics, get results and motivate.
Well done!
Transforming a reservation: GREAT people!
Man, we're all transforming. This is so great. I love to see folks taking the initial step towards a goal. And when that initial step and commitment continues to burn and turns into a personal push, physical, mental and spiritual push.... It is just so cool to see it. Keep it up, folks. Thank you.
Personally inspiring.
Totalmente de acuerdo con mis compañeros excelente fin de semana ...todo mi agradecimiento cariño y admiracion para mis couches Erick,Magie,Carlos,Lance y Ricardo ...Fue un sueño hecho reaidad ...
2nd WOD ever!! That kicked my ass!!!
AWESOME weekend at Rogue!!! I learned SO much and am excited to share with my CF community! Thanks to all the amazing Coaches: Abi,Lindsey, Eric, Joe, Doug, & Spencer! You guys rock!!!!
Great class in Tomball this past weekend! Sarah, Matt, Chris, Dave, Hollis (super-star), another Dave....were all phenomenal!
The break out groups were the best part, even if people do not plan on coaching or opening a box of their own, I would recommend this training!
Big thanks to all the instructors at the CFL1 course in Miami(Chuck, Leah, JMac, Dana, Jenni, Nuno, Caoch Andy), and to the I AM Crossfit family for letting us use their great facility. I want to thank all the coaches for sharing their years of knowledge with us and explaining the material so in depth. I think everyone who crossfits should take the level 1 course even if they do not plan on coaching or opening a box. Truly helpful I cant wait to do all my bench marks again(after some squat therapy of course). A big shout out to Nuno & coach Andy for no repping the shit out of me & pushing me so hard! lol
thank you all so much, HELL YEAH!!
I show up and stand in-line, fumbling though my paperwork, nervous like a kid at his first day of school. Then I see Pat Barber is the guy checking everyone in. Neal Maddox is chatting with folks in line. Khalipa is shaking hands and kissing babies?! Are you freaking kidding me?! I was trying to figure out which Youtube video I just stepped into?!
Then the class gets rolling and I find out that these CrossFit Superstars- Miranda, Pat, Michelle, Kelly, Neal and Jason haven't just championed competing in CrossFit. They have also perfected the instruction of it. They were the most helpful and down to earth group of people I have ever been around. The knowledge and experiences gained from last weekend will undoubtedly last a lifetime. For that I am extremely thankful. My only complaint is that the class was too short. Besides what was taught in the classroom and in the breakout sessions, what made one of the biggest impacts was what I witnessed from the Instructors. Such as catching Khalipa hiding in a stairwell reviewing his notes prior to delivering his lecture to us. Or Neal taking extra time after class to talk to me about how to train my parents...and list goes on and on.
Thanks again!
(the bald guy front and center)
Amazing weekend at the cf level 1 cert at crossfit vurtuosity. I learned so much and had a great time , thanks to all the coaches,mike,bethany , jenn,keith , and dre. thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us , you guys were a truly inspiring group of coaches!!
Thank you NorCal for hosting this past weekend! I was insanely nervous and tired (I work late shifts) when Saturday came around. But seeing Pat, Kelly, Neal, and Jason with so much happy energy while checking us in, made the nervousness go away. Thank you to everyone else that helped out too! Your pointers were awesome and I was able to use them on Monday (we did front squats and push jerks!) I remembered what Pat told us and I finally had an easier time with the jerks on the hero WOD. Thank you for the energy, the wealth of information, and pointers on how to be a better coach/trainer. Thank you to Dal too, he told me to work on my "trainer voice" during the 2nd wod...still trying to find it. It was one of the best experiences I've had in my 2 years of Crossfit. Learning from the best!
Rest as rx'd
Thanks to all the coaches for a great seminar at the Bridgeport, Pennsylvania (CF King of Prussia) CFL1 cert. Coaches Aimee, Austin, Mel, Joe, Rudy, and Rob made it a great weekend.
The L1 Cert Training at CrossFit KOP was amazing! A heartfelt THANK YOU to our coaches - Joe, Austin, Rob, Rudy, Mel, and (hostess with the mostest) Aimee! You are all amazing athletes, and incredible teachers. It is rare to find people as humble and approachable as they are skilled and knowledgeable. You guys are the real deal! Your commitment to, and enthusiasm for, the sport of fitness is apparent and infectious. Hope we cross paths again. I learned so much . . . this was well worth my time and $$. Best. Weekend. Ever.

This undated photo released by the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction shows inmate Michael Benge.
A Butler County man who beat his girlfriend to death with a tire iron, dumped her body in the Great Miami River and stole her ATM card to buy crack cocaine was denied clemency Tuesday, a day before his scheduled execution.
Gov. Ted Strickland opted to follow the state Parole Board's 9-0 recommendation against clemency for Michael Benge, 49, of Hamilton, who murdered 38-year-old Judith Gabbard on Feb. 1, 1993.
With his final appeal exhausted, Benge is now set to become the eighth inmate executed by Ohio this year - which would be an annual record for the total number of executions since the state ...

On Sept. 14, the last big round of this year's primaries was held from the District of Columbia to Wisconsin. It appears that, once again, ultra-conservatives managed to trump mainstream Republicans in many states, but some commentators fear this may be good news for the Democrats.
Among the most closely watched elections were those held in Delaware and New York. In the first, a relative newcomer Christine O'Donnell, backed by the Tea Party, upset a nine-term congressman Mike Castle. In the second, Carl Paladino, also supported by the grassroots movement, defeated GOP favorite Rick Lazio in the gubernatorial race, and will run against Democrat Andrew Cuomo, the son of a former governor.
Initial reactions from mainstream Republicans including former George W. Bush strategist Karl Rove suggest the party may seek alternative candidates to support.
Rove told Fox News that O'Donnell has said too many "nutty things" that "simply don't add up," and expressed his opinion that " this is not a race we're going to be able to win."
However, in her victory speech the newly minted Senate nominee was upbeat.
"A lot of people said we can't win the general election; yes we can!" she said, adding in a thinly veiled reference to mainstream Republicans that "it will be hard work, but we can win if those same people who fought against me work just as hard for me."

Of all the desert island products out there, lip balm ranks numero uno on our list. Clark's Botanicals Ultra Rich Lip Tint not only prevents and relieves chapped lips, but it also adds a pretty wash of color. We're fans of both Madge Mauve, a deep cranberry color named after Madonna, and Rachel Red, a bright strawberry shade that's an homage to actress Rachel Nichols.
I received the Clark's Lip Tint in Because I Love You. It is a perfect shade if you like peach shades. I have bought hundreds of lip glosses and this product has a wonderful lip feel. It is smooth, but not greasy an d it is not sticky at all. I think that it is best used under and or over your favorite lipstick. I keep mine in my pocket to use throughout the day and at night. I will be buying more of these.5

HOUSTON, Nov. 18 -- ConocoPhillips has confirmed plans to delay the upgrade of its 260,000-b/d Wilhelmshaven refinery in Germany.
"This is the right project for Wilhelmshaven—but not now," said Willie Chiang, senior vice-president, refining, marketing, and transportation. "We will reevaluate this investment opportunity as market conditions warrant."
ConocoPhillips had planned to add a coker, hydrocracker, and hydrogen units to the refinery, which it acquired in 2006 from Louis Dreyfus Refining & Marketing Ltd.
ConocoPhillips Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jim Mulva last month said delay of the project was possible (OGJ, Nov. 16, 2009, p. 68).

After years of controversy, Lance Armstrong admitted to Oprah that he'd been doping since the mid-'90s, stressing that he would not have won his 7 Tour de France titles without the performance enhancing drugs. That was the easiest part, it turns out.
A class-action lawsuit against the disgraced cyclist alleges that his two books, "It's Not About the Bike" and "Every Second Counts," are basically fraud because he shamelessly lied.
People who have bought them and were shocked to hear that Armstrong had doped are now taking him to court to get their money back, the Los Angeles Times reports.
Both Armstrong and several of his publishers are named in the lawsuit spearheaded by Rob Stutzman, a former consultant for Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Jonathan Wheeler, a professional chef.
"Stutzman bought the book in California and read it cover to cover. Although Stutzman does not buy or read many books, he found Armstrong's book incredibly compelling and recommended the book to several friends," the lawsuit states.
Apparently, Stutzman was so impressed by what he had read that, when he met Armstrong in 2005, the first thing he did after he shook his hand was to congratulate him on his book, which he had found very inspiring.
"In response, Armstrong thanked Stutzman," the lawsuit notes.
Wheeler, on the other hand, is also a cyclist. He bought Armstrong's first book and was "so impressed... that he bought Armstrong's follow-up book" as well, the lawsuit states, as cited by the LA Times.
The lawsuit doesn't specify whether these two are simply asking for their money back or are also seeing other damages.
Armstrong is yet to publicly address the new controversy generated by his admission to Oprah but, considering that he must have been prepared for all kinds of backlash after the interview, chances are he will continue flying under the radar for another while.

A retro, colorful, coiled instrument cable that's both functional and fun.
Using 99.999% OFC low-strand-count copper conductors, this Lava cable has been designed to provide world-class, sonic performance. Its nostalgic coils bring you back to previous decades when it was hip to be coiled.
Famous American guitarist, Reeves Gabrels says, "it's the best sounding coil cable out there."
Alex Auxier of Orange Amplification says, "Lava's Retro coil cable delivers great sound, and of course looks amazing with an Orange amp, but it offers a utilitarian advantage as well. The coiling makes for no more hassles when bundling and removes the need to worry about getting caught up in messy cords on stage. I'd recommend the Lava Retro coil before any other."
1/4" straight to 1/4" straight connections.
Break free from straight, standard instrument cables when you buy a coiled cable today.

Comments about Lava Retro Coil 20 Foot Instrument Cable Straight to Straight Assorted Colors:
Talk about going back in time! This cable reminds me of the coils I used back in the 60's and 70's only the quality seems to be much better. I have a vintage 1968-ish cable (it still works, but is mostly a nostalgic relic) for comparison. This cable is more substantial. It seems more durable. (But will it last 40+ years?) And It sounds better. It frees one up to move about on stage and it introduces a bit of fun as well. I would probably replace it if it were lost or stolen, but not if it failed.

Nixon and Obama are already in office. Why go to the expense of inaugurating them or any incumbent who is re-elected? Guess it could be a pretty big ego-trip for some and is legislated.

Thank you, Jim. Cody's death and the deaths of others due to drug use must be addressed by our community as a whole. Your courage in speaking out is something more of us should do - from our kids who know who drug dealers are, to parents who notice a change in their child, to law enforcement, medical, and educational professionals who can help identify the users and expose the suppliers, to the pawn shop owners who purchase (likely) stolen valuables in exchange for cash to buy drugs, and others with knowledge - all must speak up. This silent killer must be exposed. There can be no shame or secrecy. Addiction is a disease and those who are sick deserve treatment. May God bless your family with comfort and peace. Your sadness and loss of a loved one through addiction could happen to any of us at any time.

"Glee's" Ryan Murphy and his "Nip/Tuck" partner Brad Falchuk have been pretty tight-lipped about their new FX pilot "American Horror Story." There's been no word on plot or genre. All we've had to go on is the cheery and optimistic sounding title. Until now.
FX has refused to even release the show's plot. As such, they have left us no choice but to come up with our own predictions about the show's content. Here are nine possible plotlines.
Just like in any relationship, FX wants to get back with Ryan Murphy now that he's with a better looking (higher profile) significant other (network).

ASHEVILLE, North Carolina (AP) - Evangelist Billy Graham is back home after a night in the hospital.
Graham, who turns 90 next month, fell late Friday at his North Carolina home when he bent over to pet Sam, his golden retriever, and the dog got under his feet.
Hospital officials say the evangelist was sore and bruised but not seriously injured.
Graham's spokesman, Larry Ross, says Mission Hospital in Asheville offered to let Graham go home after the X-rays, but the evangelist decided to stay overnight because it was so late.
Graham's personal physician, Dr. Lucian Rice, said the evangelist was able to do his daily exercises Saturday morning and was released from the hospital Saturday afternoon.
Rice expects a full recovery and said he's encouraging Graham "to remain as active as possible, but to be mindful of his dog, who likes to keep faithfully at his feet."

Bundles of fiber weighing 500 pounds each were stacked high in the newly renovated building on Hudson River Road in Halfmoon where Soft-Tex relocated in March.
Soft-Tex, a pillow, mattress and comforter manufacturer, held an open house of its new 120,000-square-foot factory; showroom and distribution center Tuesday, June 24.
The manufacturer, which has been in business for more than 20 years, formerly operated out of Harmony Mills in Cohoes.
Soft-Tex started looking for a new location for its manufacturing business about two years ago, when it received an eviction notice. The space the company formerly leased in Cohoes was renovated to make loft apartments.
Soft-Tex decided to move to Halfmoon because other suitable locations were too far from their workforce, including buildings in Amsterdam.
In moving, the company was able to maintain 80 percent of its 90-member workforce, most of which is from Cohoes according to Dan Nagle, director of customer relations for Soft-Tex.
The manufacturer's new home offers all of its services on one level, Art Perry, vice president of the company said.
Perry owns Soft-Tex with his brother, Harold.
Perry said the move, although not planned, allowed the company to expand its docking area from three docks to 12.
The increased docking stations allow for Soft-Tex to more efficiently ship goods to homes. Home deliveries constitute a large portion of the manufacturer's business, Nagle said.
Soft-Tex also sells its products to stores like Bed Bath and Beyond and under brands, including Therapedic and Royal Velvet.
With the addition of docking stations, the manufacturer is able to provide a docking station to both the United Postal Service and Fed Ex at the same time, cutting down on loading times.
We definitely modernized moving here, Nagle said.
Town Supervisor Mindy Wormuth, who attended the open house, said she was pleased with the manufacturer's decision to locate in Halfmoon.
