Diesel prices are down 3.8 cents, says Energy Information Administration
July 06, 2011
It appears that diesel prices are back on a steady downward pattern, according to data released by the Department of Energy's Energy Information Administration (EIA).
Prices dipped 3.8 cents to $3.85 per gallon, following a 6.2 cent decline last week, which represented the steepest weekly decline since falling 6.4 cents the week of May 23. Diesel prices have gone down a cumulative 27.4 cents since hitting a 2011 high of $4.124 per gallon the week of May 2.
On a year-over-year basis, prices are up 96.2 cents.
Oil prices are also down, with the current price per barrel trading at $96.09 on the New York Mercantile Exchange, according to media reports. A Boston Globe article stated that Goldman Sachs said that the International Energy Agency's recent decision to release 60 million barrels of oil from its reserves won't cool off prices as much as originally thought.
The article added that independent oil analysts say prices still could head lower this year, but some think IEA's announcement speaks volumes about its expectations for world oil supplies.
As LM has reported, even with the recent decline of diesel prices, shippers and carriers remain concerned about the price of diesel and oil. While many have indicated that prices at current levels are still digestible, they cautioned that could quickly change depending on how quickly prices rise with summer driving season officially here.
And even with declines in prices in recent weeks, the focus from a supply chain perspective for managing fuel price ebbs and flows—for shippers—is more on utilization and efficiency by doing things like driving empty miles out of transportation networks.

Running in 60 to 90 MinutesHummus and Carrots
This protein-and-carb combination will help keep you satisfied during long runs. The sodium in hummus will make you thirsty for a few extra sips of H20. Carrots are rich in beta carotene, and according to a study review published in 2010 in the journal Nutrients, eating carotenoid-packed fruits and vegetables may help defend skin against sun damage. Good news for midday runners.
Snack RightPick up handy single-serve cups, like Sabra Hummus Singles. A few whole-grain crackers or a wheat pita are other smart dunkables.
Instant Oatmeal
A good source of whole grains, "oatmeal is great for longer runs because it sticks to your ribs without feeling heavy," Dowell says. The instant variety is convenient, plus one pack supplies 40 percent of your daily need for iron.
More: 15 Quick and Healthy Breakfasts
Snack RightPlain instant oatmeal is the best choice, but it's also okay to go with sweetened varieties when you're clocking longer runs. The extra sugar will provide quick fuel.
Sweet Potatoes
High in carbs, sweet spuds provide long-lasting energy for your run, says Lewin. One has 230 percent of your daily need for vitamin A, key for a strong immune system. The skin contains soluble fiber, which, according to a study in Obesity, can help reduce belly fat when paired with exercise. But if you eat it, give yourself an hour or more to digest before running.
Snack Right
Microwave a small sweet potato at home, wrap it up, and take to work. Reheat in a microwave. "It's also just as tasty cold," Lewin says.

PHOTO OP: Madame Tussaud would be proud
Defending US Open champs Roger Federer + Serena Williams attended the much-anticipated US Open draw ceremony which was broadcast live for the first time on ESPN News today. BTW - nice moves ESPN. Nice.
The big news on the boy's side was the placing of Fed + Rafael Nadal in opposite halves of the draw meaning they could only meet in the final. The Swiss maestro looks to have a relatively smooth ride to another Flushing Meadow semifinal where he could run into Novak Djokovic or Andy Roddick. He could face a possible meeting with former champ Lleyton Hewitt in the third round and Roland Garros finalist Robin Soderling or US Open Series winner Sam Querrey in the quarterfinals.
The draw gawds weren't kind to Rafa who opens against a returning Richard Gasquet and could face World No. 2 Andy Murray in the semifinals (a rematch of last year's semi won by the Brit baller) if he gets by potential road blocks like Juan Martin del Potro and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga.
The Sisters Sledge were placed in the same half of the draw and could only meet in the semifinals this time around. Venus has a potential fourth rounder with dangerous floater and '05 champ Kim Clijsters. Top seed Dinara Safina could meet up with Jelena Jankovic in the quarterfinals which would be a rematch of their Cincinnati final won by the Serb. And Rogers Cup titlist Elena Dementiva faces a potential blockbuster third rounder with '06 champ Maria Sharapova.
Click here to view the boy's draw and here to view the ladies's draw. And make sure to check back tomorrow for my preview of the year's final major!

We shall see no? Rafa to the final. Interesting no?ReplyDelete
Thank you for the breakdown, Rich.ReplyDelete
Muy interesante that the draw does not pit Roger and Rafa against each other in the semis, no?
Also, Rich, you know that Ms. Serena got her wax statue and visited it today? They sculpted her in her belly shirt and gladiator boots. I was like, "Okay!"
But I *love* this picture.
Why do they remind me of an ice cream sandwich? Is it the curly silver trophies?
One more thing -ReplyDelete
"The Sisters Sledge were placed in the same half of the draw and could only meet in the semifinals this time around"
Why do they keep doing this???

I'm a resident and was unaware of this I did it for both my wife and myself I'm going to have to call and do some butt kissin. Where do they explain details of this rule? I thought if your unsuccessful in a draw you are still issued a b.p? (sorry to hijak the thread a bit but I'm learning quite a bit from your posts)
I'm glad this thread got started. i am starting to put in for Nevada Antelope and Mulies this year. So, I don't have the book in front of me, how much is the NR license? Are you charged for the tag only if you are drawn, or up front the whole amount?

May 25, 2016
Tallahassee, FL -- Another signing day has come and gone, and another top ten class for Florida State. The Seminoles signed 22 players this year, earning them the 9th ranked class, but the nerves were still there for Jimbo Fisher and his staff.
"On signing day, nothing is out of the ordinary," says Fisher. "There's no such thing as being out of the ordinary. With that said I sweat until they all, until I get that final fax."
Starting at seven in the morning and as letters kept being faxed in, the nerves, turned into smiles. Of the 22 signees, 12 are on the defensive side of the ball.
"I'm real ready because the next time I put on some shoulder pads, it's at Florida State so I'm excited I'm going to be doing my part of it and I'm just looking forward to it," says linebacker Matthew Thomas, a Florida State commit.
Jalen Ramsey, a five star recruit who decommited from Southern Cal to join FSU, is one of three defensive backs that will join Jeremy Pruitts' defense.
"I just feel so comfortable with Florida State, the coaches there, I trust them," says Ramsey. "They're good christian men, coming from a christian family I'm trying to stay in that. It's close to home, I get t o see my family more often, and I feel like I can come in and help them get to a championship."
"We have three guys in this class that can do it all. Really good players," adds FSU defensive coordinatior Jeremy Pruitt. "I'm going to tell you this, I wouldn't trade them for any three in the country, I don't care where they're at."

The Catholic Church stood by while 6 million J*ws were executed in Germany.
Argentina was no different.
John Paul is a LEGEND in the church because he actually STOOD UP against communism in the eastern European country.
Along with President Reagan, the church was credited with helping to bring down the Soviet Empire.
This guy will be just another old school generic do-nothing pope like the last one, I believe.
A bunch of 80 year old guys elect a 76 year old whipper snapper to carry on the same old school, out of touch thinking.

GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) - Olivier Hanlan set an Atlantic Coast Conference tournament record for freshmen with 41 points and Boston College beat Georgia Tech 84-64 on Thursday in the first round.
The ACC's rookie of the year had the highest-scoring game in the tournament by any player regardless of class since 1970 and broke the old mark of 40 set two years ago by North Carolina's Harrison Barnes.
He was 14 of 18, made his final 12 shots and was a one-man show in bringing the eighth-seeded Eagles (16-16) back from an early 15-0 deficit and into a Friday quarterfinal against No. 9 Miami, the tournament's top seed.
Marcus Georges-Hunt had 21 points and 11 rebounds to lead the ninth-seeded Yellow Jackets (16-15), who have lost five of seven and now are likely left to hope for an invitation to the NIT.

If you blinked, you might have missed Bellator middleweight champion Hector Lombard's return to action at this past week's Bellator 18 event.
The Cuban judoka needed just six seconds to dispose of non-title challenger Jay Silva, and as Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney recently told MMAjunkie.com Radio (www.mmajunkie.com/radio), Lombard (25-2-1 MMA, 4-0 BFC) didn't even break a sweat.
So with another five live events remaining before the June 24 conclusion of Bellator's second season, Rebney said he's like to see Lombard back in action – and he wouldn't mind seeing him against Brazilian Paulo Filho (19-1 MMA, 0-0 BFC).
"I think Hector Lombard is one of the most dangerous 185-pound fighters on Earth," Rebney said. "He's got every complete facet of the game. I can't wait to get him back on television so more people can see Hector Lombard fight because he's a beast. He is an absolute beast.
"You'd be hard-pressed to name two or three 185-pounders who could compete with him at a top-level."
Lombard was slated to fight the former WEC champion Filho at Bellator 18, but visa issues prevented "Ely" from making the trip.
"Entry into the country issues and visa issues," Rebney said. "I'm sure everyone kind of understands. It wasn't an easy or a seamless situation from the get-go. … There were issues with it and hurdles from the very beginning, but we felt confident that we could get over them. When push came to shove at the very last minute from a transport perspective and a visa perspective and going to the appropriate meetings and getting things done in the country of origin, it just couldn't happen.
"It's still a fight that I look at, and I think if there were any way to make it, I would love to make it. … I hope it can happen. It would have been a great fight."
Filho was once considered among the best 185-pounders in the world, but recent struggles with addiction and depression have left his status as an elite contender in question. But when Filho is at his best, his track record is one of proven success.
And Rebney said he's not exactly turning middleweights away at the door.
"We're searching frantically," Rebney said. "Part of the problem with Hector Lombard is that not a lot of people are picking up the phone saying, 'Hey, Hector Lombard – I'd love to fight him.'
"We're not getting much of a response out of people. But we're trying; we're working relentlessly to try and get some viable opposition in there against him."
And with Lombard coming off one of the fastest knockouts in mixed martial arts history, Rebney said he'd like to get his champ back in the cage sooner rather than later.
"Hector didn't even break a sweat," Rebney said. "He threw a three-punch combination. The first two landed, and he didn't even have to throw the third.
"I would love to get him back on national television before the end of the season."

text: By Russ PankoninThe Imperial Republican A "Bowl for the Cure" benefit will be held Sunday, Sept. 15 at the Imperial Lanes to raise money for Susan G. Komen for the Cure and Imperial's own Cathy Weiss. Weiss was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year, followed by surgeries in March and April. She just completed eight rounds of aggressive chemotherapy and is beginning 6.5 weeks of five-days-a-week radiation treatment in September. Weiss said the prognosis looks very good.Surprised with Benefit She said she was shocked and surprised when she heard about the benefit. Alex Marshall organized the benefit in conjunction with the U.S. Bowling Congress and Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Marshall formed Chase County Bowling last year to promote bowling tournaments and benefits. This will be the second benefit Marshall has organized. He held a fundraiser to support the high school bowling team. Marshall said proceeds of this tournament will be split between Weiss and Bowl for the Cure. The tournament will begin at 2 p.m. Sept. 15, with registration beginning at 1 p.m. The entry fee will be $50 per person. Marshall said the tournament is open to all and no handicap is needed to participate. The tournament will feature a lowball format, where the bowler tries to keep their score as low as possible, much as in golf. The trick will be to keep the ball out of the gutter, which automatically counts 10. Marshall said there will be prizes and other awards planned. For more information or to sign up, people can contact Marshall at 308-883-2348. Weiss is the sister of Grant resident Amy Thelander.

UPDATED 6.20.2012 by Julie Montanaro
James Lewis was sentenced today to three years in prison and another 18 months on probation.
He's accused of pushing his wife out of their moving car right in the middle of Midtown in June 2011. She wound up with broken bones and internal injuries.
Lewis entered a plea to drunk driving and battery charges earlier this month.
Court records show that once Lewis is released from prison, he'll have to undergo weekly alcohol screenings, his license will be suspended for three years and once he does get his license back, his car must have an interlock ignition device on it for a year.
UPDATED 6.13.2012 by Julie Montanaro
A Tallahassee man accused of pushing his wife out of a moving car will soon be headed to prison for it.
James Lewis entered a plea to drunk driving and felony battery charges late last week.
He's accused of pushing his wife out of their moving car right in the middle of Midtown in June 2011.
Lewis will be formally sentenced next week to three years in prison and another 18 months on probation.
UPDATED 6.21.2011 by Julie Montanaro 5:45pm
A Tallahassee man accused of pushing his wife out of a moving car is in jail on a $35,000 bond.
Those who saw it happen - and those who saw the aftermath - still can't believe it.
"At first, it was like, oh, some girl got hit by a car or on her bicycle," Ryan Goreau recalled.
Ryan Goreau was working at the Midtown Filling Station when police cars swarmed Thomasville Road Saturday night. He walked down the block to see what happened.
"I mean the ambulance took off pretty much immediately. It was pretty intense," Goreau said.
24 year old James Lewis told police he and his wife Amanda had been arguing. He claims she was cheating on him and said he opened the door for her to get out.
Police say he pushed her out .
Ricardo Voltaire was a passenger in the car behind the Lewis' that night. He was in town to drop off his cousin at FSU. We talked to him on the phone at his home in Palm Bay. He says he saw the woman's legs sticking out of the car. She was trying to get back in, he said, and then the driver hit the gas. The man came back, Voltaire said, and dragged her to the curb by her arm.
"There were cop cars everywhere and we saw this girl just laying in the middle of the street and she wasn't moving," Leslie Connell said.
Leslie Connell was on her way to the Filling Station that night. She was shocked by what she saw and shocked when we told her the woman was not a pedestrian.
"Now that I know what it actually was, it's just awful. It's scary that something like that could actually happen."
We have not been able to get a condition update on Lewis's wife Amanda. Police reports show her injuries are extensive ... broken bones in her neck as well as a lacerated liver, kidney and spleen.
Lewis is charged with attempted murder. A judge set his bond at $35,000. He ordered Lewis to wear a GPS monitor once he's released and stay at least 500 feet away from his wife. He will be allowed only supervised visits with his children.
UPDATE 06-20-2011 by Jerry Askin at 6:50pm
Tallahassee Police say 24-year old James Lewis pushed his 23-year old wife Amanda from the vehicle after an argument.
It happened late Saturday night on Thomasville Road.
The woman was taken to the hospital with life threatening injuries including broken bones and collapsed lungs. Lewis is charged with domestic battery and felony battery.
The Tallahassee Police Department is investigating an accident on Thomasville Road near Midtown near Sixth Avenue.
They're releasing minimal details at this time.
TPD says the accident involved a vehicle and pedestrian.
They have confirmed injuries.
We will bring you more details as it becomes available.

I have made these for 3 different gatherings and get lots of compliments every time. I have made them the night before and day of. I do recommend taking them out of the fridge about 30 minutes before serving if you want a softer cupcake.
We did not enjoy, the flavor was there but the feeling of the cupcake was thick. It was not light, fluffy, and moist. Its my thought that the pudding mixture contributed to it. I love lemon and was disappointed in it. We did not eat all the cupcakes and thats hard to do with 4 kids in the house. Will not make again.
I made these for work, and they are very good. Light, and creamy! i used the low fat cream cheese to reduce the calories.

Extreme Contrasts
Iceland is a country of extreme contrasts. Widely known as "The Land of Fire and Ice", Iceland is home to some of the largest glaciers in Europe, and some of the world's most active volcanoes.
Iceland is also the land of light and darkness. Long summer days with near 24-hours of sunshine are offset by short winter days with only few hours of daylight.
Young and Old
Iceland is also a very young country with old traditions. In fact, it is the youngest landmass in Europe with the continent's oldest parliament, formed in 930 AD. Þingvellir, the site of said parliament, is a designated UNESCO world heritage site. Commonly said to be located at the juncture between the North American and Eurasian continental plates, Þingvellir are in fact at the juncture of the North American continental plate and a smaller plate (approx. 10,000 km2) called the Hreppar Microplate. No need to worry though, the juncture between the North American and Eurasian continental plates can be experienced on many other places in Iceland, for example at the wildly popular Blue Lagoon.
From the moss covered lava fields in the southwest, through the barren highlands in the centre, to the soaring fjords in the northwest, a drive around Iceland will attest to the great diversity of landscape, which changes with every turn in the road, and of course with every changing season, each with its own charm.
Iceland was the last country to be settled in Europe, when emigrants from Scandinavia, and the British Isles first came to live on the island in the ninth and tenth century. It remains the most sparsely populated country in the continent with less than three inhabitants per square kilometre.
Shaped by the unrelenting forces of nature, Iceland's harsh natural environment has bred a resilient nation that has learned to exist under extreme conditions, and harness the natural resources for its own prosperity.
The cornerstone of Icelandic culture is the Icelandic language, which has spawned a literary tradition that dates back to the ancient Icelandic Sagas. Violent tales of blood feuds, traditions, family, and character.
A strong literary tradition still thrives in modern Iceland. Icelandic authors publish more books per capita than in any other country in the world. Iceland also prides itself of a prospering music scene, a burgeoning film industry, and Icelandic design, that is coming of age.
Icelandic customs and traditions are inspired by centuries long insular existence, and a curious mixture of pagan influence on a Christian religion. Icelandic folk tales are ripe with mysticism, ghosts, elves, and trolls, and further shaped by the natural forces and a taxing environment.
Cultural Iceland
Iceland was the last country in Europe to be settled. To this day, it is one of the most sparsely populated countries in the world. Located in the middle of the North Atlantic, Iceland was settled by emigrants from Scandinavia and the British Isles in the tenth century. Due to Iceland's geographical location, it was mostly outside the influence of contemporary culture in Europe and America, until the late nineteenth century.

Greensboro, NC -- A Greensboro man is in a local hospital after an incident at his Adams Farm Parkway apartment complex.
Officers responded to the apartments at 1334 Adams Farm Parkway around 8:30 p.m. Saturday in reference to a man with a gun.
Witnesses told police the man was having some sort of emergency in his apartment and was holding a gun in a "threatening manner," according to a news release. That's when they left the apartment to call police.
When officers made it to the scene, they initially were unable to make contact with the man in his apartment. Police set up a perimeter around the complex and told other residents near the man's apartment to evacuate.
Several units worked together to eventually get the man out of his apartment without any issues.
Paramedics took him to a local hospital for treatment.
Police say no charges were filed in the case because the man was having a medical emergency. His name has not been released.

I've been testing the distribution lists but came up with a big difference against our actual mail software:
you cannot limit access to the list, that is the list must only receive messages from a moderator(s) and not from anyone.
is there any way to do this ?
It is important to us because we use several lists which members only receive messages, they cannot send because then it will generate messages to everybody creating a sort of local spam.

Walgreen Co. announced Monday, June 7, that it won't participate as a provider in any new or renewed prescription drug plans to rival CVS Caremark Corp.'s pharmacy benefit manager.
Deerfield, Illinois-based Walgreen, which has more than 7,500 stores, said it concluded that the partnership wasn't in the best interest of its customers, pharmacists and shareholders.
"It's a good calculated risk" on Walgreen's part, said Gregory Madsen, principal at Deerfield-based health care benefits consultancy Innovative Rx Strategies. "Employers in general don't want to lose Walgreen in their network."
CVS Caremark is the largest distributor of prescription drugs in the United States. Existing CVS Caremark plans that include Walgreen won't be affected until renewal time.
In a letter to CVS Caremark addressing the decision, Walgreen pointed out several issues within the partnership. They include the unpredictability of reimbursement rates and "no or little information" received when a CVS Caremark drug plan is transferred.
"Unfortunately, as a result of CVS Caremark's pharmacy benefit management practices toward Walgreen, it no longer makes good business sense for Walgreen to be part of their network for new and renewed plans," president and CEO Greg Wasson said in the statement.
Officials at Rhode Island-based CVS weren't immediately available for comment.

Solves a BIG Problem
I have a first generation Power Tap hub. It is not convertible to wireless. I gave the bike it was mounted on to my girlfriend's son. When I tried to use my power tap wheel with a different bike, it wouldn't work. I changed the batteries in both the hub and the head, but no go. I figured the wired sensor must have gotten damaged in the move to the other bike. I contacted my local bike shop and they contact Cycle Ops. Their answer was to sell me an entire new wheel and computer head at a "special price". Cycle Ops never even mentioned the availability of this extra bike wire. That's poor marketing and customer service if you ask me. I am an active club rider and ex racer. I was ready to tell everyone that my large investment was now worthless, because the manufacturer didn't make a small fix replacement part.
Thankfully I found it on your website. It has a slightly different design than my original (actually much nicer) but it works flawlessly. I know this isn't a big ticket money maker for you, and you probably don't sell very many. But thanks for making a small dollar fix available for what was initially a major dollar investment. I'll buy more from you in the future because of it.

American Gladiators – Adonis bumped out of Final 8!
January 21, 2008 10:57 PM by Rich
Tonight's episode of American Gladiators was the first time one of the four previous winners could be knocked out of the final eight. With the usual gusto and great action, this episode was not a disappointment by any means. Evan (Retail Manager, 5′ 10″, 160lbs) was pitted against Son Nguyen (Fire Fighter, 6′ 0″, 165lbs) for the men. The women boasted Christine Kim (Mortgage Broker, 5′ 3″, 117 lbs) and Jennifer Blum (Lawyer, 5′ 6″, 155lbs) in this contest.
The men were first into the fray facing off against Titan, Mayhem, Toa, and Justice in Gauntlet. Dressed in red, Evan fought his way past Titan, Mayhem, and Toa with relative ease. Justice, on the other hand, managed to hold him up despite a great scramble move up the side of the course to get past him. With time running out, Evan managed to get past the gladiator broke through the wall to earn ten points. Son, dressed in blue, tried a very nimble leap frog move past Titan which was nearly successful. Son backed off and then got past the big gladiator, as well as fighting his way past Mayhem and Toa. Justice managed to take him down and hold him from getting past until time expired.
The women started tonight's action with the Wall. Venom was tasked to chase down Christine while Siren was matched with Jennifer. With a seven second head start, both women ran to the wall and started up moving well. The gladiators, when they were set loose, wasted no time in going up the wall right behind them. Christine was the first to be caught as Venom got her by the foot. Trying to fight the gladiator off to no avail she went for a plunge into the water below. Jennifer was caught by Siren and stubbornly tried to keep her hold on the wall. With twenty seconds to go she very nearly managed to hold out for the clock before Siren pulled her off the wall to join Christine for a swim.
The Pyramid pitted Son and Evan against Wolf and Justice. Facing off with Justice, Son tried to get past his man and managed to get into the scoring zone once. Justice tackled him down to the bottom of the pyramid once, threw him bodily down several times, and successfully kept him from remaining in the scoring zone. Evan faced off with Wolf, and was taken down quickly by a great flying tackle move. Trying to find a way against Wolf by crossing with Son, he found himself with another trip down the pyramid from a second flying tackle. As the time ran out neither man managed to score in this difficult competition.
Earthquake put the women on the moving platform facing Crush. Jennifer was first up and immediately went after the gladiator. Grappling with each other they quickly were down on the platform as Crush tried to shove her over the side. In a great move, Jennifer grabbed onto one of the support ropes and hung on trying to beat the clock. Crush put her foot on the competitors' head and pushed until she lost her grip falling to the mats below. Christine took to the moving platform next also going right at the gladiator. After grappling for several seconds, she found herself taken down onto her back. Crush tried to pick her up to dump her over the side but was fought off by her opponent. As they wrestled near the edge, Christine managed to kick out of the grip going to the opposite side of the platform. This maneuver along with time running out earned her five points.
Evan was first into the Assault course against the skill of Militia. Getting quickly to the first position he managed to get a shot off with the sling shot. Just missing the target as Militia continued to fire missiles at him, he raced to the second position. Militia nearly got his man when the shot bounced off the barrel of Evan's cannon. Firing back he hit the target surrounding Militia with a burst of smoke and a ticket backwards into the pool. Son did not fair quite as well in this course. Getting to the first position he misfired the sling shot causing his bullet to bounce harmlessly across the course floor. Moving to the turret he was just barraged by Militia as one shot went past his head, bounced off the barrel of the gun, and a third got him in the head. The women were next into this course with Jennifer taking her chances first. Nearly hitting the target with her sling shot attempt, she scrambled to the next position in a hail of missiles. Loading her cannon, Jennifer managed to hit the target sending Siren for a smoky ride into the water behind and scoring ten points to increase her lead. Christine got to the first position and got her shot off but missed the target. Moving to the cannon, She turned the protective barrier the wrong direction and was exposed for several critical seconds. Turning the barrier, she managed to get the shot off missing a second time. Christine dodged Siren's shots to get to the sand pit, hitting the smoke screen she got to the crossbow. As time ran out she was working on loading the crossbow ending her run on the course.
The men's Wall competition was not really a competition as much as a way to show up the gladiators. Evan took to the wall against Wolf and Son against Toa. With their seven second head start they started up the wall quickly putting distance between them and the gladiators. The gladiators never got close enough to even consider laying a hand on them. They both went up the wall like it was nothing and gained the top, awarding Evan ten points and Son five points.
The final event for the women was Hit and Run. Crush, Stealth, Fury, and Hellga were the gladiators tasked to remove the two women from the bridge with demolition balls. Christine had a very good run, if not a lucky one, as she ran right into the one hundred pound balls not once, not twice, but three times and remained on the bridge. She managed to complete five trips before time ran out and avoided going for a swim. On her fifth trip she took a solid hit managing to keep her balance and shrug it off. Jennifer on her first run took a ball right to the head which did not deter her. Using a duck under strategy she completed four trips before getting hit solidly and put into the drink on the fifth.
The men's Eliminator challenge was nearly no challenge at all. Evan started with a nine second head start and never gave an inch. He was already swimming under the fire when Son hit the wall and struggled to get over it. Evan made short work of the cargo net, barrel roll and hand bike starting up the pyramid as Son started the hand bike. Son fell off the hand bike and that sealed Evan's victory as he hit the zip line, went up the travelator on his first try. Coming through the wall with a time of one minute, twenty-nine seconds, he removed Adonis from the final eight and boasted the best time thus far in this competition. The women were next up in this competition. Jennifer started with a two and one-half second head start. Jennifer struggled up the wall and managed to get over and into the water first. Both women got to the cargo net at almost the same instant and both struggled up the net. Christine got to the top first and onto the barrel roll where she lost one shoe, and took off her other! Both women fell from the hand bike, Christine getting up the pyramid before Jennifer climbed back up from the pit. Christine fell on her first attempt up the travelator allowing Jennifer to catch up. Both competitors looked exhausted as Jennifer finally got up the travelator and through the wall with a time of four minutes and seven seconds. Both women will not be going into the final eight.
Check in with us next week here at Reality TV Magazine to see who makes it to the final eight and who is going home!

I spoke with the good folks at Royal Enfield USA and asked about different size primary chain sprockets and was told they dont supply anything but the standard size. Specifically I am looking for a smaller crankshaft sprocket to gear the bike down. I did order the smallest counter shaft sprocket available a thirteen tooth but I would still like to gear the bike down more at the primary to hopefully avoid a giant rear final drive sprocket. Anyone have an idea who to call?
Hello, we sell a set of trials gears. These are two compensation gears that fit into the standard gearbox which lowers 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears whilst maintaining the standard ration for 4th. Most people buy this option as it allows a more practical gear when riding on the road between sections etc. Part number 90024 at £85 plus VAT and P&P Regards, Hitchcock's Motorcycles Ltd. I think this is the same stuff Enfield USA sells?

Ned Yost media session: May 3
Ned Yost met with the media this afternoon and a topic of discussion was about Irving Falu, who had his contract selected earlier in the day from Omaha and is in the Majors for the first time. Yost stated, the Royals are looking for somebody who can play second, short, and third and he is good at all of those. Falu has played 949 minor league games and he hasn't worked hard to just be average at one position, he has worked hard to be good at four or five positions as well as being a good hitter from both sides. Falu has put his time in and he has his opportunity and he is excited that he is here, stated Yost.
The next topic was about Kansas City kid Tommy Hottovy and how excited he is to be coming home, putting on a Royals' jersey and playing in front of his family, especially against the Yankees this homestand. Yost discussed how he was impressed with Hottovy during spring training and still is impressed. Having him gives the Royals another left-hander option that they can use in tough situations. Last homestand, the Royals struggled in the middle of their order and the starting pitching was not doing very well. When they went on the road the two-through-five hitters were swinging the bats well and their starting pitching was looking better. "We are excited about this homestand," says Yost.

Hi, Can you please indicate how many lumens equivalent is this torch and also how long does it last on high mode? It says 5hrs burn time however it doesnt say on which mode. THanks
Hello Clint, A powerful and compact diving torch with a High-Power 3W mono LED, providing an incredible light output of 7.000lux, equivalent to a 30W halogen bulb. Electronic voltage supply control of the LED ensures a consistent light for 5 hours with 8 standard AA batteries. A careful choice of materials makes this torch able to withstand depths up to 100mt / 330ft. Anti-shock rubber protection on the anodized aluminium head and a tubular ergonomic handle with a magnetic sliding switch; the latter features ON and OFF positions with mechanical safety catch. Compact dimensions allow storing the EOS 3 in the BCD pocket. Also the burn time on this is up to 5Hrs and that is on the lower setting.
What exactly calculate the lumens?
The ratings for lumens come from the manufacturers. If a light source emits one candela of luminous intensity uniformly across a solid angle of one steradian, the total luminous flux emitted into that angle is one lumen (1 cd·1 sr = 1 lm). Alternatively, an isotropic one-candela light-source emits a total luminous flux of exactly 4π lumens. If the source were partially covered by an ideal absorbing hemisphere, that system would radiate half as much luminous flux—only 2π lumens. The luminous intensity would still be one candela in those directions that are not obscured. The lumen can be thought of casually as a measure of the total "amount" of visible light in some defined beam or angle, or emitted from some source. The number of candelas or lumens from a source also depends on its spectrum, via the nominal response of the human eye as represented in the luminosity function. The difference between the units lumen and lux is that the lux takes into account the area over which the luminous flux is spread. A flux of 1000 lumens, concentrated into an area of one square metre, lights up that square metre with an illuminance of 1000 lux. The same 1000 lumens, spread out over ten square metres, produces a dimmer illuminance of only 100 lux. Mathematically, 1 lx = 1 lm/m2. A source radiating a power of one watt of light in the color for which the eye is most efficient (a wavelength of 555 nm, in the green region of the optical spectrum) has luminous flux of 683 lumens. So a lumen represents at least 1/683 watts of visible light power, depending on the spectral distribution.
41566 - Mares EOS 3 LED Torch
The beginning of a new era
• High-Power mono LED
• Consistent light intensity
• Long burn time
A powerful and compact diving torch with a High-Power 3W mono LED, providing an incredible light output of 7.000lux, equivalent to a 30W halogen bulb. Electronic voltage supply control of the LED ensures a consistent light for 5 hours with 8 standard AA batteries. A careful choice of materials makes this torch able to withstand depths up to 100mt / 330ft. Anti-shock rubber protection on the anodized aluminium head and a tubular ergonomic handle with a magnetic sliding switch; the latter features ON and OFF positions with mechanical safety catch.
Compact dimensions allow storing the EOS 3 in the BCD pocket.
Congratulations on the Mares torch you have purchased. This torch is the result of in-depth research, and the fruit of years of experience
from professional divers and technicians. Latest-generation innovative technical solutions and advanced materials set this torch
apart. You'll quickly notice its versatility, convenience, and extended duration.
Eos 3 and Eos Pro are extremely small torches designed to be as ergonomic as possible and easy to use when scuba diving (Eos 3)
and freediving (Eos Pro). In fact, its size makes it easy to tuck into a BC pocket or hook to any piece of equipment without becoming a
hindrance. When worn on the wrist using the special strap, it's always close to hand and precise: the switch stays near the thumb.
The body of the torch is made of highly resistant shockproof technopolymer, which makes it extremely rugged under any usage conditions; the
waterproof seal is ensured by two O-Rings. The reflector holding nut is made of anodized aluminium and the crystal is tempered. The
use of an latest-generation innovative LED and careful study of the reflector's geometry create an unbeatable bright spot (7,000 lux) that
is highly concentrated and able to penetrate any underwater cavity at depth.
A special electronic control circuit guarantees constant light intensity throughout its entire charge.
• Unscrew the head of the torch, holding it pointing upward.
• Grasp the LED holder, being careful not to touch the inner surface of the reflector.
• Insert the batteries, paying CLOSE ATTENTION to their orientation, respecting the polarity shown on the stickers (Fig. 3).
• Replace the reflector with LED in the correct position (Fig. 4), being careful not to touch the inside surface of the reflector with your
• Fully screw on the reflector holding nut (head).
• Respect the polarity of the batteries inside the torch.
• Remove the batteries if the torch is left unused for long period or during transport, to avoid an accumulation of gas, especially when
used with rechargeable batteries.
• Do not use the torch out of the water.
• Replace ALL the batteries when they are dead, to avoid damage or injury to the torch or people.
• Do not unscrew the reflector holding nut (head) of the torch during a dive or when wet.
• Before screwing on the ring nut, grease the 2 O-Rings with silicone grease and check that they are clean. Periodically (once a year), have the integrity of the O-Rings checked at aService Center.
• If any water leaks in, immediately rinse all parts with fresh water and dry, except for the Reflector unit, LED, and Circuit. Immediately find out the cause by contacting a Mares Service Center.
• In the event of a malfunction, contact the Mares Dealer where you purchased the torch or a Mares Service Center.
• During transport the strap should be positioned as shown in Fig. 5.
• Use of expired batteries can significantly reduce the torch's burntime and performance.
• A decrease in the intensity of light and/or a slight flicker in the beam indicate that the batteries have nearly lost their charge. They
should be replaced immediately.
• Rinse the outside of the torch in fresh water after every dive, without disassembling it.
• Keep the torch in a cool, dry place. The temperature must never exceed 50°C.

Numbers are on the rise for homeless veterans in one of our most patriotic and pro-marine cities in the east.
The Onslow County homeless shelter says in the last 5 years they've seen an increase of homeless veterans jump 77%. Just Sunday night alone, out of the nine beds in the male dormitory- five of them were taken by homeless veterans from around Onslow County.
Both previous shelter residents and the director tell us it may be a few choices that lead anyone, including veterans, to the shelter, but it's a whole segment of society not many are aware of.
"Yes, we're not New York City- we don't have homeless people sleeping on the side of the road- but in woods, under bridges, in their vehicle."said shelter director Karin Hudson
"Always thought when I got in that I was gonna retire. I did pretty good for 35 years after. My choices led me to a dead end," said previously homeless veteran William Moore.
Hudson says she's shared the new stats with Camp Lejeune. Now they're working together to make sure the transitional information marines get before leaving the corps really spells out their options and offers planning assistance.

The Sundari Cleansers collection was created with the tenants of the natural healing tradition Ayurveda in mind. Ayurvedic principles hold that the key to good health is balance, which is why the Sundari Cleansers are formulated to normalize the skin. All of the cleansers are designed to leave the skin with just enough moisture to prevent dryness without allowing excess oil to collect on the complexion and clog the pores. A wide array of formulas is found in the Sundari Cleansers collection and each contains natural herbs to treat specific skin concerns.
Enjoy the many benefits of the Ayurvedic healing tradition by bringing home Sundari Cleansers. The cleansing products promote healthy, clear and youthful complexions for all skin types.
The Sundari Comfrey Cleanser for Dry Skin thoroughly cleanses the complexion of impurities without stripping away its vital moisture. The formula is enriched with comfrey, a natural extract that contains allantoin. When applied to the skin, allantoin reduces inflammation, making it an effective treatment for the irritation that often follows skin dehydration. The cleanser also gently exfoliates the skin tissue, leaving it with a smoother, softer finish.
Designed to meet the needs of sensitive complexions, the Sundari Gentle Gel Cleanser is an effective cleanser and skin care treatment in one. The formula contains aloe vera and chamomile extracts, which reduce the redness and puffiness that accompanies hypersensitivity reactions. The cleanser also softens the epidermis, priming it for exfoliation. Not just for women, the cleanser is an excellent skin care solution for men with razor bumps and other types of shaving irritation.
The Sundari Neem and Burdock Balancing Cream-Gel Cleanser is a unique cleanser designed to meet the needs of combination skin. The formula contains copper PCA, which regulates oil production to eliminate patches of oily shine. The inclusion of squalene in the formula gives dry, rough spots on the complexion a dose of moisture, while burdock root alleviates symptoms of irritation all across the face. As an added benefit, the cleanser contains antioxidant-rich neem extract to fight signs of aging.

Fernandez Makes a Return Trip to NCAA Regional
AMES, Iowa – Iowa State sophomore golfer Scott Fernandez will compete in the postseason for the second consecutive season, earning an individual selection to the NCAA Ohio State Regional, May 16-18 at the Scarlet Course in Columbus, Ohio.
Fernandez' berth into the postseason was a mere formality, as the Cyclone star has posted one of the best seasons in school history, compiling the lowest stroke average in school history at 71.11.
A native of Granada, Spain, Fernandez is ranked 16th nationally by Golfweek and has placed in the top-10 in eight of nine tournaments he's competed in for the Cyclones. An All-Big 12 First-Team pick and Ben Hogan Award Watch List member, Fernandez was named to the 2013 Palmer Cup European team in April.
Fernandez will be going solo this year after helping the Cyclones earn their first NCAA Regional berth as a team since 1999 a year ago.
"I am disappointed we couldn't make it as a team, but I am excited to have the opportunity to continue my season," Fernandez said. "This is a great opportunity for me to play against the best players in the nation."
A total of 13 teams and 10 individuals will compete at the Ohio State Regional. In order to advance to the NCAA Championship, May 28-June 2 in Atlanta, Ga., Fernandez will have to be the top finisher among all competitors not on a team advancing.
Fernandez is trying to become the second-straight Cyclone to advance to the NCAA finals. All-American Nate McCoy did it last year, tying for 29th at the 2012 NCAA Championship at the Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, Calif.
Fernandez is the fifth Cyclone to earn an individual selection to postseason regional competition (1990-Jim Webb; 2004-Jeremy Lyons; 2008-Chris Baker; 2010-Ben Herrera).

Mission Cantina
172 Orchard St., 212-254-2233, Lower East Side, Manhattan
While Danny Bowien's Mission Chinese is being revamped, his followers are flocking to his latest joint, Mission Cantina, one block north. The windowed corner space manages to be both festive and bare bones, the brick walls painted pastel colors and bathed in blue light. Little bowls of thick, housemade corn chips dribbled with chili vinegar start things off with a kick. Tortillas are made in-house via a nixtamalization process that begins with fresh masa, resulting in far more flavor than supermarket varieties. Given that Bowien is an independent thinker, taco fillings are not tame: beef tongue with charred onions and peanuts; grilled, smoky brisket with bacon and queso Oaxaca; and confit pork shoulder with crispy jowl and pork cracklings are all worth wolfing down. His rotisserie chicken is also like no one else's, stuffed with rice, chorizo and pecans and basted with brown rice vinaigrette.

Gene Simmons can't stop taking swings at Kiss co-founders Peter Criss and Ace Frehley, according to Ultimate Classic Rock. In the current issue of Rolling Stone, Simmons who carries on the Kiss banner 40 years later with Paul Stanley, talked about the group, while publicizing his and Stanley's joint memoir, Nothin' To Lose: The Making Of Kiss (1972-75).
As always, Simmons pulled no punches when talking about the disappointment he feels towards Criss and Frehley, but refused to take any of the blame the former drummer and guitarist -- along with millions of fans -- continue throw his way, declaring, "I am the bad guy. I won't stand for drunks and alcoholics who get up on stage and consider it their birthright. I consider it a privilege to get up there and arrive on time and be sober, and I'll be an a***hole to anybody who thinks otherwise. You know who else is an a***hole? Your teacher was an a**hole. Your parents are a**holes. Your drill sergeant was an a***hole. Because they wouldn't let you get away with s***. Ace and Peter have had a lifetime of being losers. And not just with drugs and alcohol. They're losers because of wrong decisions. You sleep in the bed you make. How many chances in life do you get? They were in and out of the band three different times. Why should they get another chance?"
Nothin' To Lose: The Making Of Kiss (1972-75), was co-written with Ken Sharp and draws on "more than 200 interviews, offering a captivating and intimate fly-on-the-wall account of their launch, charting the struggles and ultimate victories that led them to the threshold of super-stardom. Constructed as an oral history, the book includes original interviews with Paul, Gene, Ace, and Peter, as well as producers, engineers, management, roadies, costume and stage designers, fans, and musical contemporaries from the time."

Global Port Tracker report has promising outlook for 2010 volumes
December 29, 2010
Much like its companion report focused on North America-based retail container ports, the Global Port Tracker report is calling for much improved 2010 volumes compared to 2009.
The report, published by Hackett Associates and the Bremen Institute of Shipping Economics and Logistics expects a 14 percent gain for imports across Europe in 2010 at 21.1 million TEU (Twenty-foot Equivalent Units) imports, which, the report said, would be in line with 2008 levels. Of the projected 21.1 million TEU for 2010, the report said that 13.9 million TEU are forecasted for North Europe, which would be a 12.1 percent gain over 2009.
2010 growth, according to the report's authors, was spurred in large part by government stimulus packages and inventory re-building by retailers. Heading into 2011, the report cited various "austerity" measures enacted in certain regions, which are expected to result in 2011 growth coming in at 8-to-9 percent for imports, with exports at more than 5 percent.
Ben Hackett, president of Hackett Associates, said in a statement that much of this growth will occur during the second half of next year, with the first half expected to be slow with little sequential growth until the end of March.
"The 2010 recovery mirrored the North American economic recovery," said Hackett in an interview. "Inventory stocking that occurred led to consumer demand, which helped volumes. The seasonal downturn for the end of this year and into next year will still be there but the second half of next year will be solid."
Government austerity packages in France, Italy, and Germany also made an impact, with taxes going up—except for Germany—which will temper 2011 growth to a certain extent, leading to what Hackett called more subdued 2011 growth.
Ports surveyed in this report include the six major container reports in North Europe: le Havre, Antwerp, Zeebrugge, Roterdam, Bremen/Bremerhaven, and Hamburg.
The 2010 forecast for total shipments, including imports, exports, and empties, according to the Global Port Tracker report, is 37.5 million TEU, a 12.9 percent gain over 2009. Imports at 15.3 million are up 13.2 percent annually and exports at 15.8 million TEU would be up 11.4 percent.

After nearly 30 years in this hobby, we have learned a lot. Equipment comes and goes. Our first telescope has morphed itself into the 20th. Many sets of eyepieces have graced our eyepiece boxes over the years. However, the ultimate question is still not answered. Where is the best place to observe from?"
The search for a new astronomy home was started in a post on CN in June of 2010.
By the following year we had discovered our new home, purchased the property, and started the big job of moving our home and observatory to New Mexico, under some of the best skies in the country, where you can expect 300 clear nights a year, unbelievable transparency, , decent temperatures, and great seeing. A second thread on CN talked about our findings of locating the new home.
We had lived for 40 years in Florida, but sold our place at the Chiefland Astronomy Village in February of 2012, and by March the move west started.
We now are living at The New Mexico Astronomy Village, a brand new place just starting out. Already five astronomy families have purchased land, and before long more astronomers will be moving here and building their own observatories. There is already one 24x24' roll off next to us, with more planned before long.
After getting the basics finished, there is now time to start the build of our new home for our 42" driven Dobsonian, affectionally known as the Beast - mainly because it weighs 1600 pounds, and when struggling to build it it earned that name. Lots of photos will be posted on a page on my web site as construction continues, so if you want to learn how to build a fiberglassed wooden dome, you might want to check it out now and then. Jeannie and I expect to have the Beast back in operation in a couple of months, and are quite excited to have the big scope working under skies that are far superior to where it was for the last 10 years.
As an added benefit Mike Lockwood has the mirror in his shop for a refiguring and recoating job while the new home is being completed. We can't wait for first light, and to be able to invite friends over to share the views.

AAAS releases The Evolution Dialogues
In a press release issued on August 9, 2006, the American Association for the Advancement of Science announced the publication of The Evolution Dialogues, written by Catherine Baker and edited by James B. Miller. As the book's prologue notes, "there are deep misunderstandings about what biological evolution is, what science itself is, and what views people of faith, especially Christians, have applied to their interpretations of the science.
"The Vigil after Dover"
"Keeping Science and Religion Separate in Schools: The Vigil after Dover" was a free public forum held at Florida State University on May 17, 2006, to discuss the implications for science education posed by the December 20, 2005, federal ruling in Pennsylvania on the nation's first court case involving "intelligent design" -- Kitzmiller v. Dover. Featured at the forum were NCSE's executive director Eugenie C. Scott, Georgetown University theologian John F. Haught and Michigan State University philosopher Robert T.
Canadian controversy in review
Brian Alters is on the cover of the Summer 2006 issue of Humanist Perspectives, which devotes a full eleven pages to discussing the controversy that arose in the wake of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada's deciding not to fund Alters's research project to study the effects of the popularization of "intelligent design" on Canadian students, teachers, parents, administrators, and policymakers.
Reactions to the Kansas vote
Following the August 1, 2006, primary election in Kansas, supporters of the integrity of evolution education are expected to form the majority on the state board of education, no matter who prevails in the November 2006 general election.
The pendulum swings in Kansas
With the results of the August 1, 2006, primary election in Kansas, the pendulum swung in favor of the integrity of evolution education. In November 2005, the state board of education voted 6-4 to adopt a set of state science standards that were rewritten, under the tutelage of local "intelligent design" activists, to impugn the scientific status of evolution.

John Cullen
Head Coach
John Cullen enters his seventh season as the Charlotte 49ers' head women's soccer coach in 2015 as the school's career leader in coaching wins. The London, England, native is the fourth head coach in the program's history, returning to his alma mater Jan. 15, 2009, after a highly successful eight-year run (2001-08) as the head women's soccer coach at Catawba in Salisbury, North Carolina.
"I am extremely pleased to have someone with John's character, abilities and accomplishments but the one thing that you can never put a price tag on – the one thing that truly excites me – is his passion for our program," Charlotte director of athletics Judy Rose said at the time of his hiring. "To have an alum, who was a member of our soccer program, who has great coaching credentials, come home, is the best of both worlds. What he's done there (Catawba) is remarkable and I think the sky's the limit for him here. He has a vision for our program that exceeds what we have done."
Cullen became the school's all-time victory leader Oct. 12, 2014, when his Niners team topped Southern Miss at Transamerica Field, 2-1. He enters this fall with 68 triumphs to his credit and as the most recent recipient of the North Carolina Youth Soccer Association's Brantley-Murphy Award for his dedication and commitment to the sport on the state level.
On the collegiate scale, Cullen and the 49ers played host to the 2014 Conference USA Championships. Martha Thomas was selected as a TopDrawerSoccer.com Freshman All-American, the Conference USA Freshman of the Year and an all-region choice. She burst onto the scene with 11 goals during her rookie campaign, creating havoc for opposing defenses along the way.
Overall, four Charlotte players earned All-Conference USA honors, including Taylor Dulaney garnering a first-team spot in addition to joining Thomas as an all-region pick. Amanda Jones and Sara Trexler rounded out the all-league choices, while Victoria Fubara and Shelby Hicks were named to the conference's all-academic teams. Jones capped her career as one of the school's all-time offensive greats, ranking in the Top 10 listings in several categories.
Throughout his Charlotte coaching career, Cullen has crafted a 68-41-12 (.612) ledger with the Niners, guiding the team to the conference tournament each season. In each of his first two years, 2009 and 2010, Charlotte reached the championship match after completing the regular season with 9-0-2 and 8-1-0 league records, respectively.
He won 16 games in each of those campaigns, garnering a share of the Atlantic 10 regular-season crown in 2010. His initial squad tied the school record for single-season shutouts (13), while outscoring the opposition by an astounding 60-to-16 margin.
Hailey Beam was chosen as the 2009 Atlantic 10 Midfielder of the Year, while Whitney Weinraub was picked as the Atlantic 10 Offensive Player of the Year the same season. Six players received an all-league honor and another three added all-academic accolades to conclude his first year.
The all-conference award winners jumped to eight in 2010, including goalkeeper Alex Kubrick on the all-rookie team. Again, the 49ers placed a player on the all-academic team in addition to Jones being honored on the all-rookie squad in 2011.
In 2012, Charlotte reached the double-digit win plateau despite losing three of its top five scorers from the previous fall. The 49ers entered the season with the 10 field player returning starters having earned only a combined 58 starting nods. Despite the youthful group, a total of four Niners were recognized as All-Atlantic 10 performers.
Cullen's 2013 squad added another trophy to the case, picking up the Conference USA East Division in its first year back in the league. The 49ers weathered through injuries midseason to win the outright championship and earn the division's top seed at the conference tournament, where they reached the semifinals.
He orchestrated another double-digit win campaign along the way, his fourth in five years, and led Jones and Monica Trickett to All-Conference USA Second Team honors. The pair added All-Conference USA Tournament Team accolades as well, while Nicole Anderson added an All-Conference USA Freshman Team nod.
The Niners outscored their opponents 22-to-5 during the second half in 2013, registering a number of comebacks to pull out victories or force ties. That never-say-die mentality helped lift the team to a 7-2-1 record at Transamerica Field during the program's 20th season. A year-long celebration featured the retirement of Hailey Beam's jersey and a large group of alumnae returning for Alumni Weekend in October.
During his time at Catawba, Cullen led the Indians to four NCAA Division II Regional appearances, including two showings in the regional finals. The program won a pair of South Atlantic Conference (SAC) regular-season titles in addition to his personal hardware of four SAC Coach-of-the-Year plaudits. In 2005, he was named the NSCAA Regional Coach of the Year after the squad finished with a 16-4-1 record.
All in all, he recorded a 113-33-16 record during his tenure, finishing as the school's career wins leader. He developed two All-Americans, an academic All-American, two SAC Players of the Year, 18 all-region selections and 32 all-conference honorees.
In addition to his collegiate resume, Cullen boasts strong ties to the Olympic Development Program (ODP) level. He began working at the state level in 2001 before joining the US Region III staff in 2006. Overall he tallied a 46-4 record with the NC ODP program, including an unbeaten, unscored upon 16-game slate with the '90s NC ODP team. He joined forces with former 49ers assistant coach Sarah (Judy) Denton in the summer of 2010, leading the NC ODP '95 team to the regional championships in Montevallo, Alabama. The squad then represented Region III in the Feb. 2011 national championships.
Cullen served as the assistant director of coaching with the Charlotte Soccer Club from 1992-2001 and also was the executive director of soccer with the FC Carolina Alliance, based in Concord, for three years.
He graduated from Charlotte in 1993 with a bachelor of arts degree in English, while playing all four years with the 49ers' men's soccer team. He was a member of the program's first NCAA Tournament team in 1991, which peaked at No. 4 in the national rankings, as well as the 1992 NCAA Tournament squad that climbed to as high as No. 2 in the polls.
Cullen, a team captain, garnered a spot on the NSCAA South Region Scholar-Athlete Team in addition to the Sun Belt Academic Honor Roll.
Cullen currently holds a USSF (United States Soccer Federation) "A" license.
He currently resides in nearby Concord with his wife Terina and their three daughters: Bailey (16), Peyton (14) and Reagan (12).

This Green Tea Power Smoothie is the Ultimate Power Breakfast
Smoothies are the ultimate power breakfast, in my opinion. In one easy and portable drink, you get multiple servings of fruit and vegetables plus protein so it always lasts you till lunch. And no matter what the ingredients are it always ends up tasting delicious, which makes me think my blender has magical powers.
Once I discovered you could add spinach to smoothies without altering the taste, my morning breakfast was forever changed. In this smoothie, we add spinach and green tea powder, or "matcha," which contains more antioxidants than brewed green tea, raspberries and blueberries combined!
In other words, this is one of the healthiest smoothies on the block!
