Malaysia's Hanafiah Dolah (top) blocks a shot by Singapore's Hafiz Nor Izam at the ISTAF SuperSeries Finals 2013-14. Malaysia won 2-0. – Bernama Photo
KUALA LUMPUR: Thailand looked cool, calm and collected as they easily romped to a 2-0 victory over India in their opening men's Group A match of the ISTAF SuperSeries Finals 2013-14.
Despite fielding a second-string side, the top-seeded Thais took just 21 minutes to carve out a 15-8, 15-6 victory over India at the Titiwangsa Stadium on Wednesday.
India started the match with a win in the bag after beating Germany 2-1 (15-10, 13-15, 15-8). However, they stood little chance against the mighty Thais.
Thailand had started the match with the pairing of Kitsana Tanakorn (tekong), and Supachai Maneenat (killer) and Somporn Jaisinghol (feeder) before swapping Kitsana and Supachai for tekong Sitipong Kamchan and killer Treepong Rawangpai respectively.
"Today's match was like a warm-up for us. Our focus today was to test out our tekongs to see if they are competent enough to handle the pressure of playing in the Finals. It was an easy game, but I'm quite satisfied with how they played," said coach Komkrit Tubkaew.
Thailand will face Germany in what Komkrit also categorised as a practice match.
"The match against Germany will be another chance for us to test out our pairings. It will help us gauge their performance better," added Komkrit.
In Group B, hosts Malaysia had little trouble beating neighbours Singapore 15-5, 15-8 in 25 minutes.
Malaysia started off with the trio of tekong Izurin Refin, feeder Muqlis Borhan and killer Hanafiah Dolah while 18-year-old tekong Syahir Rosdi and killer Khairol Zaman Hamir Akhbar were also tested late in the second set.
"Being the first match, I think they did well. We saw just how crucial the role of the tekong is and Izurin did a great job in the first set. We lost momentum in the second and Singapore were gaining in confidence," said national coach Jamaluddin Hasan.
"We gave the young ones a taste of playing in this kind of boisterous atmosphere and they'll have to get used to that. Hopefully, we'll be more ruthless in our following matches," he added.

So amazing
A steel moon ... sailing over an iron city.
Wonderful. The steampunk elements blend seamlessly into the traditional (French?) architecture - reminds me of streets of my childhood in rural France, with cobbled streets and artisan shops, bakeries, butchers.
just awesome, love the clock/street light at center
Reminds me of undertown from the edge chronicles!
man, i remember the edge chronicles...it was a great series
and you're right, it does look kinda like undertown, albeit the "nicer" part

Those airships are amazing wonders.
Beautifully done. Love the concept. Such mastery of detail! Great job with the different textures on the buildings, moon, etc. Lots of depth, too. Very much a sense that the world continues on past the edge of the frame.
Your art is different and total masterpiece. Just incredible!
That looks amazing! How'd you think of something like that?
Some friends of mine actually had a band named Steel Sun a long time ago!

State Relations to Federal Grants-in-Aid
GRANTS-IN-AID from the federal government to the states may be said to be fluids into which federal funds and requirements are poured with one hand while the other pours in state participation and activity. The proportions, which vary with different grants, depend on a number of elements, such as the nature of the particular services to be rendered, the kinds of work done, the development of services in the cooperating states, and the policies of federal and state organizations. Nevertheless, no matter what the proportions, both federal and state participation are essential in the grant-in-aid mixture.
To change the metaphor--it may be said that the machinery of both participating governments must be oiled and set in motion before a program gets under way. The two mechanisms are obviously timed differently, so that one aspect of a program must wait on the other, especially when a grant-in-aid is on its way for the first time. Federal law may therefore indicate a willingness to mark time until state machinery is properly geared and set in motion, or until state difficulties are remedied. This is particularly important when a program must move forward with a certain uniformity throughout the country as a whole. For example, the Soil Conservation Act of 1936 allows the federal government to fly in the face of the Supreme Court decision forbidding contracts to be made between farmers and the federal government, but to do so only temporarily, during a period necessary "to afford reasonable opportunity for legislative action by a sufficient number of States"1 to insure the validity of the program as a whole.____________________

I was wondering what you all think about mounting the Road Morph on the third water cage mount on the underside of the down tube on the LHT.
I checked the travel of the front wheel and there is no problem with turning the wheel fully side to side.
I do believe I will put some kind of wrap of the Road Morph head to prevent any crud getting in it, even though I have installed fenders.

Valentine's Day and the history of the Salt Lake Temple
To mine the granite from Little Cottonwood Canyon, hundreds of would men would dangled their friends over the side of the mountain. Those who were dangling over the edge would pound wedges into the side of the canyon wall every few inches.
Then when everyone was ready, they would pound and shout together – almost like with rap music — and when they heard a crack, they new the face of the mountain would fall down.
When they heard the crack, they would yell "pull" and the people holding the ropes would hopefully lift them before they were hit by the falling granite.
They were mostly successful with pulling them up, Black said. However, in one case, the face of the mountain took off Brother Livingston's arm.
His arm was later found, but it left him in a quandary, which he wrote about in his journal: What should he do with the arm? Bury it and hope that he's buried with it when he dies? Or, should there be a funeral for the arm?
In end it was pickled, Black said.
"When Brother Livingston was buried, his detached arm was placed across his body so they would be together," she added.
Once the face of the mountain fell, it was cut into relatively smaller blocks. One of the pieces of granite was cut into 2,500 blocks.
"They were absolutely huge," Black said.
With oxen teams and ropes to hold them in place, the granite blocks were slowly brought down the canyon to Temple Square.
As the teams with these huge blocks passed, farmers in the fields would put down tools and come to side of the road and sing "The Spirit of God Like a Fire is Burning," and housewives, schoolchildren, shopkeepers and others would sing as the stones wheeled past their homes, schools (every stone meant recess) and businesses.
At Temple Square, the stonecutters would dress the stones and make them ready for the masons.
"They were perfectionists," Black said of the stonecutters, many of whom had come from England and had worked on the palace or other impressive buildings. "They didn't like every stone that was brought to Temple Square."
So what did they do with those stones? They, like the sandstone, couldn't leave Temple Square.
Later, the Assembly Hall on Temple Square was made of the "undressed" or rough stones that were brought in for the temple, Black said.
Black's ancestors worked on the temple.
"They weren't stonecutters, but they knew how to carry rocks," she said.
Building the temple
"Brigham Young had planned for the temple to be as decorative as the Nauvoo Temple," Black said. "Meaning, there would be faces in the sunstones."
The granite was very laborious to carve, but a consistent decorative element was needed.
Scientist and mathematician Orson Pratt was asked to draw the phases of the moon in the month of April and those were used on the outside of the temple.
President Young eventually died as did President John Taylor but, "The temple continues to rise," Black said.
In 1892 and Wilford Woodruff was the president of the LDS Church. It had been 39 years since that Valentine's Day when President Young turned over the shovel. The spires were there, but the interior was completely unfinished.
"It's this amazing shell of a building," Black said.
Angel Moroni
President Woodruff wanted a statue of Angel Moroni on the tallest tower, but he didn't want one like the weather-vane style one like on the Nauvoo Temple.

I CURRENTLY HAVE A 30 GALLON TANK THAT IS A LITTLE OVER HALF FULL OF WATER WITH A FLOATING ISLAND THAT A COUPLE FROGS LIVE ON. NOW WHAT I WANT TO DO IS PET A FEW FISH IN THE WATER BUT I NEED SOME IDEAS AS TO WHAT KIND I SHOULD GET I WANT TO HAVE SOMETHING EXOTIC LKE LG MOUTH BASS OR BLUEGILL OR EVEN LIKE PIKE. BUT I ALSO WANT A PLECSTOMAS (PORBABLY SPELLED WRONG) AND I A CRAB OR 2, WOULD THE GAME FISH I MENTIONED BE COMPATIBLE WITH WHAT I WANT. ANY ADVISE WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED. :frustrated:
Please turn the caps lock off.
Bass, bluegill, pike, and plecos would all easily outgrow a 30 gallon, especially if you only have about 15 gallons of water. You could have some minnows, guppies, or newts, but I wouldn't go with crabs. They can be aggressive toward tankmates.
Sorry bout the caps. I have 75 gallon tank but it is just too big for my apt. I am going to buy a house in March and get it going, but in the mean time I would like to get this little one going. so you don't even think that any of the mentioned fish would be ok tell then, as far as they go I was planning to get as small as possible like 2 inches for the gills, or like 4-5 for a bass or pike if I can catch 'em that small. but i want something that is pretty aggresive.
As for the keeping of game fishes, there are several issues at hand. the foremost of which is your local environmental regulations. additionally, species like large and smallmouth bass can jump with enough force to knock your hood and lighting into the tank thus electrocuting the livestock of your tank.
...and possibly burning your house if short circuit happens.:blueworry:
If you want plecs, there are smaller species to go over with. Bristlenose are most often recommended due to their taste for algae but they can be territorial and will attack other bottom dwellers. At least in my experience.:dunno:
There are lots of fish to keep than those game fish which will never fit in your tank. As stated, there are environmental regulations which will not allow you to keep native fishes. And so on with other issues.:thumbsup:
If you do research for fish you like, pls post the list of fish you like and we'll see if they're fine in your tank.:)
I'd be careful about getting large fish that may eat your frogs! :(
What about a jewel cichlid, green terror. with a starlight bristlenose, or a sunshine pleco??

Ripon Christian will find out right away where it stands in the Southern League tonight when it travels to Newman to take on favorite Orestimba.
The main event Friday night when Valley Oak League play begins is at The Coral in Oakdale … or is it?

Can anyone explain what advantages there are to using a tool like MSBuild (or NAnt) to build a collection of projects versus running DevEnv.exe from the command-line?
A colleague I had worked with in the past had explained that (at least with older versions of Visual Studio) using DevEnv.exe was much slower than the other techniques, but I haven't read any evidence of that or if that is now a moot point now that starting with 2005, Visual Studio uses MSBuild under the hood.
I know one advantage of using MSBuild allows you to build your projects without requiring Visual Studio to be installed on the build machines, but I wasn't sure if there were others.

Three reasons the Southern Foodways Alliance symposium was so special? 1. It defied lists. 2. It defied lists. 3. It defied lists. Only a fool would try to concoct a ranked roster of the event's thought-provoking lectures and dishes.
But since we have a fondness for numbering around here, we couldn't resist bullet-pointing a round-up of a few of the more innovative foods served at the event. To the SFA's credit, culinary innovation wasn't celebrated at tradition's expense: Symposium attendees made their yearly pilgrimage to Taylor Grocery, the 35-year old fried catfish shack on the outskirts of Oxford, and feasted on pork pulled from a whole hog cooked by Sam Jones in the fashion his forebears adopted back in the early nineteenth century. Dishes new and old were unified by integrity and flavor, which -- as countless tweets have attested -- was extraordinary.
For folks beyond the South, though, it's most interesting to reflect not on the deliciousness missed, but the future possibilities suggested by the menu.
Fancified Southern food is hugely trendy: In 2012 alone, Seattle has welcomed Honest Biscuits, the Seattle Biscuit Company, Bitterroot BBQ, Kickin' Boot Whiskey Kitchen and The Wandering Goose, and is awaiting the impending opening of Matthew "Where Ya At Matt" Lewis' Roux. But many of the Southern restaurants here and in other Northern cities are reluctant to tinker with the accepted canon, or look beyond a small swath of the Deep South for inspiration. It's much easier to track down fried chicken than tomato gravy, pintos and creasy beans, to name a few Appalachian dishes found almost nowhere.
At The Wandering Goose, a new Capitol Hill restaurant specializing in biscuit sandwiches, every sandwich features either fried chicken, fried oysters, country ham or Benton's bacon. Since I like all of the above, I'm not complaining about their local availability. But at the SFA symposium, the breakfast biscuits were topped with pastrami - a fully legitimate member of the smoked meat family - from Neal's Deli in Carrboro, N.C. (The previous day's breakfast brought Lolo Garcia's brisket tacos, another iconic Southern morning dish.) While pastrami may not ring Southern bells with the same ferocity as anything bearing Allan Benton's name, it's a smart, playful addition to a barbecue line-up. In that spirit, a few more dishes from chefs who weren't afraid to have fun:
Barbecued popcorn, Poole's Downtown Diner
Every dish on Ashley Christensen's lunch menu deserves study, but her snacky popcorn was a great example of thinking deeply about the components of comfort. Although Anson Mills' heirloom yellow flint popcorn -- which has too proud a history to be consigned to darkened movie theaters -- would have been terrific without seasoning, Christensen's team concentrated the hallmark flavors of barbecue and threw them in the sack. In a vaguely Modernist twist, the popcorn was dashed with dehydrated vinegar, tomatoes, peppers, onions and garlic.
Pimento cheese, Poole's Downtown Diner
One of the longest-running pimento cheese debates centers on which mayonnaise to use for the spread. Duke's? Hellman's? For her perfect rendition of the snack, Christensen used neither: Her binder was cider vinegar emulsion. While Southern food's renowned for being salty and sweet, there's plenty of sour to glorify too. Christensen's salute was so persuasive that I hid my table's jar of PC when a server came to claim it.
Banana pudding ice cream, Sweet Magnolia Ice Cream Co.
The standard barbecue dessert is banana pudding (Unless it's peach cobbler: Your preference probably has something to do with what's served at your favorite barbecue joint.) Banana pudding is beloved because it's gloopy, soft and sweet, but a pair of food producers showed SFA that the tradition can stand some texture. In Clarksdale, Hugh Balthrop is making rich banana ice cream from Mississippi grass-raised milk and crumbling vanilla wafers into the mix. Memphis chefs Andrew Ticer and Michael Hudman also got into the banana pudding update act, serving whipped peanut butter pie with bits of banana and a coverlet of salty, crunchy peanut brittle.
Neckbone poutine, Hog & Hominy
Ticer and Hudman served just one lunch at the symposium, but their new Memphis restaurant emerged as the weekend's obligatory pre-airport stop. Hog & Hominy serves excellent brick-oven pizzas, but the standout of our rushed meal there was a plateful of poutine, a relative rarity beneath the Mason-Dixon. Seattle loves poutine, of course, and many local chefs aren't afraid to mess with it: At The Coterie Room, the fries are tossed with a pork demi-glace, deep-fried Beecher's cheese curds and shredded pork shoulder. But I hadn't yet seen any frankly Southern preparations until faced with Hog & Hominy's version, slathered with salty neckbone gravy and cut with chili oil.
Red-eye sorghum butter, Poole's Downtown Diner
The dishes listed here were selected for creativity, not taste, since nearly every dish presented over the course of the weekend was wondrously good. Still, it's worth noting that Christensen's butter was praised by James Beard award winner Linton Hopkins as "one of the best things I have ever tasted." The compound butter was served with campfire sweet potatoes, sitting bright and fleshy in their cracked jackets. Although red-eye gravy is a longstanding Southern tradition (according to John Egerton's Southern Food, its naming has been wrongly attributed to Andrew Jackson), the brilliant use of coffee is every bit as suitable for Seattle.

Top Definition
A derogatory term used to describe an average frustrated male who typically settles for the first woman willing to have sex with him. This type of individual lives in a fairy tale world delusional to the fact that he is being used, taken advantage of and usually being cheated on by the woman whom he loves. In other words, he is the typical "nice guy" who always finishes last and is content with what he has.
I'm not surprised John's wife cheated on him and took all his money, he's a disney nigga.

As the sun went down over the southernmost extension of the Great African Rift Valley, Harvard University entomologist and renowned wildlife photographer Piotr Naskrecki began hiking up Mozambique's Mount Gorongosa. Lured by the chorus of katydids, Naskrecki left the group of biologists he had traveled to Africa with behind and followed the sounds of the cryptic insects into the unknown alone. With his headlamp on and three days worth of supplies stuffed into his backpack, he began his search for the small insects in the forest ahead. But what he found was not what he set out to see…
At the edge of the rainforest near the top of the 6,112-foot mountain, Naskrecki spotted an animal whose shape seemed both unexpected and oddly familiar. Recalling the event Naskrecki said, "it took my brain a second to pull together disparate threads of superficial knowledge and then… Sweet Merciful Jeebus, this is the Gorongosa pygmy chameleon!"

Jun 30, 2013 at 2:36 pm #1304796
Hey All,
I threw up to youtube a video of the setup I will be using for a two night three day hike. Sorry for the bad audio quality… not sure what happened, this video camera usually has awesome audio. Might be time for a remote mic.
Full gear list is available here – minus the maps, still printing them out – which will add another 10 grams or so.
Just decided to take a nice leisurely hike so taking the full on cook kit (4.19oz) for some hot meals and coffee.
Base Pack Weight is 2.72 pounds.
Total Pack Weight is 6.41 pounds.
Full Skin Out weight is 8.88 pounds.

So just a bug bivy and no quilt? Relying on gloves, a wind jacket, a down hat, and a long sleeve shirt….but no puffy layer? No ground pad. And no rain gear at all? Guess your weather, temperature and environment are, in your estimate, entirely predictable with no chance of danger, surprise or error?Jun 30, 2013 at 3:29 pm #2001125
Hey Jolly, do not really need a quilt in 60 degree temps ;)
It takes a whole lot of rain for me to put on rain gear. 19 years of living in a rain forest has made me pretty tolerant of rain. Everything in my backpack is protected, so good to go. And, a 10 or 20 percent chance of rain, means it is not going to rain. At these high temps we are having, just do not see it happening. Plus, I have an 80 gram (2.82oz) tarp… what more does a hiker need :)
Do not need a pad… the lovely softness of the redwood floor is softer than any sleeping pad I could take. Really only use a sleeping pad for r-value, and at 60 degree nights, who the heck needs to worry about r-values.
Not really even sure *why* I threw in the BRG hat or the gloves. Guess there is still some level of "unpredictable" left in me ;)
And yeah… weather here in the Redwoods of Northern California are some of the most stable weather anywhere in the USA. For all their glory and magnificence, the Redwood trees just do not like unstable weather conditions, so, they make their own :-D
Hope all is going good back there for you. I very much look forward to a follow-up article on your highly custom made LHG SoLong!Jun 30, 2013 at 6:44 pm #2001191
I think a down vest (4 oz) would be a lifesaver if the temps did drop. When asleep the body cools quite a bit.
The long sleeve shirt you have is 8 ounces!
You already have a hiking shirt, so switch that for the down vest and save weight and gain warmth!
I think you should atleast add in 3oz for a 1/8th ccf pad, it will help you avoid pokies and even the ground out a bit.Jun 30, 2013 at 6:56 pm #2001193
Hey Michael,
The Icebreaker Men's Long Sleeve Chase Zip Multisport 200 that I am taking offers waaaay more warmth than any vest I have ever used. Its heavy at 7.9 ounces, but it is one truly amazing mid-layer. If I really felt there would be an issue with cold weather, I would probably just throw the Montbell Mirage into the pack (I think I could probably fit it in there, not sure) but again, it is just not something that I am going to need. Even if the temps at night drop 10 degrees… it would still be 50 degrees, and that just does not warrant it (for me.)
I have not actually seen if a GG 1/8th will fit inside of this new backpack… not sure if it is tall enough, and no way it would fit all rolled up, I just do not have the room for that. But just not needed for this trip.
Thanks!Jun 30, 2013 at 8:22 pm #2001205
You could always strap the pad to the outside of your pack. But honestly you know the conditions, when I was a kid I never used a pad, I always thought they were for old people.
One last thing, my large MB tachyon (blue) weighs 2.5 ounces. How did you get yours to 2oz?Jun 30, 2013 at 8:45 pm #2001212

I gotta say, I have used a 1/8th pad a lot… well over a 1000 miles, and it has just never done any good at all for providing support from rocks and such. The only reason it has ever gone with me is to protect my cf bathtubs, rather than using a groundsheet.
As for the Montbell Tachyon Wind Jacket… Montbell updated them for the 2013 edition. It was first announced by Damien when he was at the 2012 Summer OR.
They are 1.6 ounces for side medium. Mine is a large so it is 57.76 grams (2.037 ounces).Jul 1, 2013 at 9:53 am #2001318Jul 1, 2013 at 3:13 pm #2001447
i know it's SUL but you have nothing to stop any sort of bleeding. a few grams of gauze and a few bandaids would seem to be useful. would be much more useful than neosporin for a 2 day trip, especially with nothing to cover the cream afterward.
Superglue 9:02 ;)
a torso sized 1/8" pad folds into the size of a magazine.. there is plenty of room in that pack for it if you wanted it.
lolol, you guys are not giving up on the 1/8th pad huh LOL
I keep waiting for somebody to just suggest the famous butt pad hehehe.

yea, he wants blog hits
Heck yeah I do!!
The more people viewing my articles, the more people buying gear from companies. The more people buying gear from companies the more they are ordering material and products from those who make it. The more those companies that make the material and products sell they more revenue they have for further R&D and thus the better products they are able to sell in the next generation of their gear. The better the products they make, the more more the gear companies buying it will buy, because more folks like us are buying their gear because of great products!
So, yes, please, help us all out… visit my articles… buy some gear!!
And, hopefully from reading some of my articles or watching my videos you will find some encouragement to get out and try some SUL/XUL hiking of your own! It is fun, hard, challenging, and will teach you new things.
So yes, please, help the Lorax!!Jul 1, 2013 at 6:38 pm #2001516Jul 1, 2013 at 6:44 pm #2001519

The idea of being able to do without is what backpacking "Light" is all about.
I hate the fact that people consider light to be a sub 10 pound base.
I even scrutinized John's list for not being light enough.
He also has a few pieces of gear he could do without.
As a tester, I think he is just bringing them along for the testing purposes?
John spends about 200 nights out in the wilderness testing gear.
If he says he doesn't need it, who am I to say he does?Jul 1, 2013 at 6:46 pm #2001521
Jake D (JakeDatc): do we get to mock when you end up unprepared? or have to use the fancy windshirt to sop up blood ;) you can't superglue a bloody nose.
If you want to turn a gear list / video into a personal attack, by all means, continue on.
If you think personal attacks are a means of voicing your thoughts, go for it.
I share what I share to potentially help others. I help, you attack. Good plan.Jul 1, 2013 at 6:53 pm #2001525

Interesting kit list, a bit too minimal for me as from experience I know I would need a decent pad and quilt or else I would not sleep well and be tired next day but your post does tell me I need to get my pack a bit lighter.

Something to ponder for sure! When I first watched the video I thought it was just plain crazy!
But 8 months ago I thought getting a pack under 18 lbs was crazy.This has opened my eyes to the the possibilities of XUL. Is it for me at this point in my outdoor life-no.
But it made me look back over my gear sheets for sure!
John does have great gear reviews and info and it is nice to see these types of setups.
Even if you don't agree there is a lesson in it. This list is extremely thin but if you look on his site he still loves his Jetboil Sol Ti. I guess you get critiqued no matter what you carry…
John-Thanks for the postJul 1, 2013 at 8:24 pm #2001551

so…has anyone used this set up for a week?Jul 1, 2013 at 9:13 pm #2001564
This list is mostly just a challenge to go really light, you guys need to take it for what it is.
Of course adding a air pad, fleece blanket etc is what many people would do, and still it would be under 5 pounds.
But the point of Abela's post is the challenge itself of hiking with a crazy light setup.Jul 1, 2013 at 9:51 pm #2001573

"But the point of Abela's post is the challenge itself of hiking with a crazy light setup."
Right. Go it. But for how long? Overnight? Day hike? Groomed trails? Abundant water? Distance? We already know about the zero rain and very warm temps, and zero chance of a first aid requirement, but beyond that, this looks like a mental exercise in leaving gear behind instead of considering UL options, which ultimately generates questions on the practicality of the set up. Most of these questions are genuine in nature on how this set up would actually work for backpacking for several days where distance, location, and weather would become a factor.

It is the one, and only, time when all involved wish they could carry the ball like a loaf of bread.
Wish it were sliced, with plenty to go around.
"But no, that ain't how it works," Broncos running back Correll Buckhalter said with a smile.
No, it doesn't. It is the simple math of a football team's running game — there is only one ball.
And the Broncos have a long line of running backs waiting to carry it each and every day, a long line to show what they can bring to the offense, to show why they should have it and the others should not.
The line got a tad longer Sunday when rookie Knowshon Moreno, one of the Broncos' two first-round draft picks, was on the practice field for the first time at training camp.

"It's a tough spot in there. There's a lot of competition, and if you're a football player, this is where you want to be, but this is also where everybody else wants to be too," said second-year running back Ryan Torain. "Once you get any opportunity out there, you can't let it slip through your fingers."
So these guys don't have to do the math, they are living it. And unlike the last 14 seasons under Mike Shanahan, Denver's offense figures to feature just one running back in the formation much of the time, not two.
That means those who do not get the carries or make enough impact cannot simply give the fullback spot a try to keep their place on the roster, because the Broncos simply won't use one very often.
"So at practice when you're in there, it's got to be like a game, and you try to get every inch out of every run," Torain said. "Don't go to sleep out there."
Five running backs are on the roster with a sixth position player — linebacker and fullback Spencer Larsen — having all split carries in practices so far. That was before the sixth full-time back — Moreno — was welcomed to the party with plenty of guaranteed money in tow.
Moreno will need some time to get up to speed, but the Broncos will certainly try to get their prized rookie from Georgia into the mix as quickly as possible. So there will be drills when each back may get only one or two carries before the next part of practice begins.
And some days it will be your day and some days it will not. How a back deals with that aspect can often dictate as much about his future as what he does with the ball in his hands.
"This happened to me once in Oakland," veteran running back LaMont Jordan said. "I remember when I was going through the whole (thing), they would tell me they didn't know if I was dressing (for a game), and I knew I wasn't dressing just based on the fact I wasn't getting offensive reps or scout team reps during the week. So you stand around and wonder when the ball is going to come your way.
"I would tell any young guy to keep working through those times and hop in there when they need somebody in the drills, on the scout team, and keep going in until the coach tells you to get out. Be smart. You know you're not getting any reps on offense, but they call the scout team, hop in there every time until the coach tells you to get out."
The danger zone, all of the backs said, is when a running back gets frustrated, lets his mind drift and doesn't keep himself engaged in what's going on around him when he is told to enter the offense and take some snaps.
That running back then makes mistakes, misses a block here, goes the wrong direction there, or simply doesn't appear ready for more work and is often handed an airplane ticket to someplace else if the trend keeps up.
"Think positive, don't play negative, and know your plays," Buckhalter said. "You pout, mope around and then your turn comes and you don't know what you're supposed to do, they say, 'Get out, get somebody else in here,' and that's it. You didn't even have time to buckle your helmet, and you already lost your chance because you didn't do it right. So always keep the frame of mind where your turn is coming, then you're ready when it does."
"It's like anything," Jordan said. "If you ask somebody to do something, on your house, your car or on the field, and they don't do it right, it's not like you're going to go out of your way to ask them again. So be ready to do it right or somebody else will, pretty simple."

Yes, and no.
"Dragon Naturally Speaking" is a PC/Windows program, and will not function on the Mac OS*. The Mac version is called "Dragon Dictate". If you have, or buy Dragon Dictate for Mac, then yes you essentially have the Mac equivalent of Dragon Naturally Speaking.
* You could use Dragon Naturally Speaking under Windows on a Mac, provided you have Windows installed on your Mac. You would either use Bootcamp, or a VM app, such as Parallels or Fusion. At a minimum, you would need to purchase a full version of Windows 7, in order to install Windows on your Mac. IMHO, you would be better off considering Dragon Dictate.

May 1, 2016
A record breaking crowd showed up for the Pioneer Festival in Mayo, Florida. As one of the smallest counties in the state of Florida population-wise, this event was huge. Around 10,000 people packed into the tiny town of Mayo for Pioneer Days.
Residents were trying the age-old tradition of making cane syrup, while others stuck to the southern fried favorite known as pork rinds. Food was everywhere from curly fries to apple dumplings and Italian sausages, but the food was not the biggest draw here; this is a homecoming.
"This is the main event. It's just good to see people come back home and visit," said Gail Garrard, the Pioneer Day organizer.
Drew Bell, Jr. added, "There's not a lot of industry here so they go off getting jobs and on holidays and special occasions they come back."
Mayo is the epitome of small town America. There are 900 residents living here, 7,000 in the entire county, so you do the math; there are more people here at the festival than there are living in this area. It's hard to believe when the crowd clears there will be just a few hundred people left in this town, but for some residents that is the way they like it.
"Well, I like the peace and quietness here," says one.
Still, the economy business owners and town leaders say they're happy with the growth of the festival. Young or old, you're just the right age for Pioneer Day. This is the 25th anniversary for the festival. Organizers say this was the biggest one yet.

"We Indians Will Be Indians All Our Lives," 1890–1920
On the day after the massacre the blizzard came. Two days later the weather cleared and the young Dakota physician assumed charge of the 100 people, most of them Indians, who ventured forth to seek the living and the dead. He never forgot that scene:
Fully three miles from the scene of the massacre, we found the body of a
woman completely covered with a blanket of snow, and from this point
on we found them scattered along as they had been relentlessly hunted
down and slaughtered while fleeing for their lives. Some of our people
discovered relatives or friends among the dead, and there was much wail-
ing and mourning. When we reached the spot where the Indian camp had
stood, among the fragments of burned tents and other belongings we
saw the frozen bodies lying close together or piled upon one another. I
counted eighty bodies of men who had been in the council and who were
almost as helpless as the women and babies when the deadly fire began,
for nearly all their guns had been taken from them.
The doctor was Ohiyesa, or, as he was called as a student at Dartmouth College and the Boston University medical school, Charles Eastman. Eastman had departed from New England in

Harvard, Yale and Dartmouth set the pace. Now several top private schools are offering free or greatly reduced tuition for children from families making less than $75,000.
Over the past two decades private schools have developed very generous financial aid programs. This has happened for a variety of reasons. But the most compelling reason is that private schools want to diversify their student bodies. They want to attract academically well-qualified applicants whose families simply cannot afford the enormous expense of sending their children to private school. Generous financial aid programs are one way of helping schools achieve that goal.
- Consider a household income of $80,000 per year or less as qualifying for full financial aid.
- Families with an annual income of less than $200,000 will not pay more than 10% of their income toward tuition per year."

- The Glenwood School, Glenwood, IL
- Milton Hershey School, Hershey, PA

- Regis High School, New York, NY
Be prepared to file The Parents' Financial Statement as part of your documentation. Schools use The School and Student Service for Financial Aid, a third party service operated by the National Association of Independent Schools, to document your financial need. The SSFA does not determine how much money, if any, will be granted to you. The individual schools have their own financial calculators which take into consideration a host of factors. You can find more information about how financial aid is calculated at each school on their web sites and by asking their financial aid staff.

My Chromecast is a developer unit, and I was wondering if it might be possible to exploit it that way... anybody ever looked into this?
It is fairly likely that the software can be ported to pretty much anything that the PS3 jailbreak was ported to, subject to minimum memory requirements. In fact, those open source projects will make it much easier as they have done basic groundwork.
It's against the terms of the developer agreement, so once big G finds out, likely they will de-whitelist it.

Why and why not? I saw one on a beautiful Retrotec at NAHBS and was wondering why there isn't more variation there.
Edit: this was a caliper mounted on the chainstay bridge, not a u-brake or roller-brake.

Last edited by veryredbike; 03-28-12 at 01:36 AM.
I think the idea is that the brake gets dirtier in that location and is more of a pain to adjust.
Yes, the under chainstay caliper location is a poor one. Chain splat, tire spray both contribute to the mess that coats the pads. Adding the knuckle cutting nature of chainring teeth near by and you know why a collective sigh of relief was heard (among those who have to service the damn things) when the mainstream manufactures moved away from this location. Andy.
why: it's different and gives a cleaner look; initially you are left wondering where the rear brake is. And I guess less drag.
why not: extra cable run on the DT, possible clearance and access issues, gets contaminated quickly
Why not- mounting a kick stand means a rear axle located one. Which don't balance the bike as well as a traditionally located one does. Don't laugh, I lost sales because of this issue in the early 1990s. Andy.
I think the best reason for doing it is just to be different. On my frames I've mounted brakes (in addition to the traditional location) under the seat stays and on top and under the chainstays. I do it mainly because I like the clean look of a "bare" seatstay... makes people wonder and scratch their heads.
On "handmade" frames you only have so many opportunities to be different. That's what you see at NAHBS.
Others do it for different reasons. I think Rob English (English Cycles) does it for aero. Look at some of his examples. Brilliant! Neat cable routing too. These are mainly race bikes where "dirtiness" is not an issue, though I'm not certain a rear brake mounted anywhere is any cleaner than anywhere else. If you didn't see his stuff while in SAC you missed something special.
Reddog3- The real people who buy bikes from your LBS do care about convenience and practicality. We, the people who read this forum, are not the people who make possible my bill paying. So i have to pay attention to what the buying masses want. back in the late 1980s and early 1990s under chainstay U brakes were the rage and found on $300 recreational ATBs. At that time the average bike sale price in my shop was about $400. It took a lot of $300 bikes to offset the few $1000 bikes i sold.
Also i have a mechanic's view of what is a beautiful bike. The ones that are hard to service, fit accessories to and otherwise limit my options or make my job hard are not beautiful in my eyes. Kind of like seeing a high heeled woman who is overly pumped and made up. Perhaps interesting to look at (in the train wreck sense) but not the girl I want to take home to my tandem. Andy (asking for forgiveness for the analogy).
Yeah, that's certainly true. One of the benefits of having started as a mechanic more recently is that I've done few enough adjustments on bikes with that mounting to forget how annoying they are to work on.
Put it on the underside of the seat-stays? Never minding the fact it's all been done, if uniqueness is the desired goal.
However... speaking about braking systems, the well thought out mounting systems don't pose a maintenance problem, regardless of position. The U-brakes and roller brakes of old required maintenance due to design and would have been a PITA regardless of mounting.
Do I think there is an advantage in mounting brake calipers anywhere but the "traditional" location? Not really. But it does open up the possibilities for incorporation of other features (racks, fenders and lights to name three), that may be otherwise compromised due to traditonal brake mounting postitions, and/or provide at least a more appealing or different look.
If you're appealing to the masses, you probably aren't gonna get there with custom handbuilt frames. China can build what they want and a whole lot cheaper.
I can attest to the fact that I've mounted brakes in all positions on the rear. None were harder to adjust or maintain the other. I'm not even pushing the envelope. Mark my words- you will see the day when brake "pucks" will extend from a hidden position in the chain stays to contact the rim's brake tracks. And it will develop beyond that. Think about it- how many years ago did you think you'd see electronic shifting?
Again I remind you- the OP saw something different at NAHBS. Open the mind or get left behind.
In this case, it was in combination with Di2. It let him build an incredibly clean bike. One cable and one thin wire right along it down the down tube and under the BB, no cables anywhere else on the frame itself. It was just gorgeous.
I was vaguely considering the same (again, gorgeous and clean), but I don't really think it makes sense for my first bike. I don't intend to go digital on my shifting, so three cables fixed to the frame are an unavoidable reality. Moving them all to the down tube won't yield the same "almost no wires" look, even if it shifts them to a slightly less visible position than the top tube. Plus, this is going to be a muddy super-commuter if I do it right.
