This Is My Bloodbowl - Poem by AaI Harvey
This is my Bloodbowl.
Thank you Games Workshop for giving us Bloodbowl;
I've played it all my life and I've completely re-written the rules.
It allows my imagination to run wild carrying a sword,
Attacking all sorts of creatures, whilst playing American Football.
It has magic, magic items and you may think it's just for kids;
But without Bloodbowl,
I wouldn't have imagined half of the things I did.
People need a release from the real world;
Mine is found on a football pitch in the game of Bloodbowl.
People cheat, steal and bribe referees and do almost anything.
If you give this game to you kid,
They could imagine the impossible
And some day maybe write random poetry like me! He, he.
…And now down to the pitch to see the kickoff! ...
The humans line up against the bad boy orcs;
The dwarfs and elves are in support.
Chaos lords and chaos spawn (twisted creatures):
Rain down pain and death on the undead and the living.
The undead walk slowly, the goblins flee!
Rat Ogres and trolls are invading the pitch!
The referee blows his whistle to send the giant off;
The deadly dark elf chops the referee's up with chainsaws;
Or use swords and axes, grenades and clubs.
They are all fighting to win the B.B.C. cup.
The Blood Bowl Championship,
It's like the NFL Superbowl trophy;
I've made leagues and cups
And every single thing possible, just for fun.
The Official Bloodbowl Organization,
Try to make all weapons illegal, but oh no, no, no!
This is the sport of death!
This is Bloodbowl!
Use spells and magic items and cause suffering;
The tiny snotling is beaten by the little Halfling.
The balls in there somewhere, though nobody cares;
The Beastmen are just here to fight,
Whilst the gnomes laugh at the high elves hair.
Such pampered fools, in love with themselves;
Vanity and self-love? That must be the elves.
Here comes a chaos dwarf, driving a steam roller;
He flattens the Fimir and a vampire.
The zombies are clueless and one fumbles the ball;
Before he is decapitated, by the 'Reikland Reavers' Mighty Zug!
The ghoul's are hungry for blood;
Here come the orks, the band of goffs.
Crazy ass gitz, just having a laugh;
Here are the sneaky Skaven to stab someone in the back.
Amazonian women are running around screaming,
Like the banshee's and all sorts of demons.
The Sisters of Battle are from the future;
A bear charges at a Treeman and look! There's a little Gnoblar.
Giant bats, giant snails, giant rats and giant eagles;
Giant leeches, giant frogs, giant spiders and giant scorpions;
The norse are Vikings, (ranked titles include kings) ,
There's a termagaunt!
There are space marines and space wolf marines,
All armed with weapons.
The genestealer's steal genes to make new creatures/weapons;
There are evil gnomes, evil ewoks, ewoks and evil Treemen.
Lesser demons fight lesser goblins and run from the Lictor!
The werebear's and werewolves fight the wolves and Saurus.
The skinks fire poisoned blowpipes at the Large beasts & minions;
Chaos Halflings beat up camels, horses and Khemri.
Mummies climb out of their crypts to bring death to the mutants;
The slayers are here to bring down the mighty bone giants.
The noble Brettonians see Blue and Pink Horrors running around;
Tyranids, Tyranid warriors and tyrants send people underground.
Dead now in this game of Bloodbowl, the game of death!
Witch elves are being hunted by Witch Hunters;
There's only three left.
To the right is a Zoat fighting a huge Yeti,
A chaos human rides a chaos horse, look out Goddess Betty.
Greater demons bring down Griffons and kill the monkeys;
The mushlings and snotrooms are simply fleeing and screaming.
Skeletons on skeletal horses, fight salamanders and satyrs;
Jabberwocks and Juggernauts,
Destroy hydra's with the hydra's own fire.
Chaos Warriors and Chaos human cowboys, slug it out with Gods;
Norse dwarves fight Nurgles rotter's and nurgling's fight ogres.
The slann were the originators of the game of Bloodbowl;
The Ushabti come from Khemri to fight the robotic Tau.
Vostroyan drunks are punking it out with Wood elves;
Oh my God! That troglodyte really does smell!
Warhounds race Gladehounds and cyborg's fight cyboar's;
Big cats include tigers and lions, so we must quickly carry on.
A carrion is an undead bird and they are bloody huge!
The imperial guard are like the rebels in Terminator;
They are human.
Kroxigor's smash boney clubs & break Kroot's predator-like heads;
Kislevites and Cowboy's ride horses onto the pitch.
Night goblin's and forest goblin's steal from all including the Eldar.
They are elves of the future and like chaos space marines…
They have travelled far.
Every creature has come to take part in this game of football.
It's American football with death included, it's so much fun!
Harpy fly above Haradhrim as a Necron breaks his own jaw;
He fell over when dodging the claw of a tomb scorpion.
Thrall and Wights march to battle on the pitch against the living;
Undead champions are leaders of death
And the minotaur's eat the dead.
Chimera and other daemonic beasts are really tough to kill, I see;
But that boar just exploded, thanks to the grenade…
Bye life, hello death; he, he.
Elementals are like Gods of earth, wind, water and fire,
Dragon ogres are going to kill anything that gets in their way!
Dreadnoughts are made to kill, there's a wolf,
This undead one's dire.
Dryad are small Treemen, there are some Elite Skaven
And ooh look there's a funny little pygmy! Open fire!
Savage orcs fight sea elves as squig hopper's bounce randomly,
Ungor's are little Beastmen, but there are still quite deadly.
Manticores destroy lizardmen and there's a blood-soaked cold one;
Bull centaur's charge at black orc's who are ganging up with a chaos champion.
Centaurs crash into carnosaur's as Dark eldar fly down from their space ships;
Hobgoblins can't be trusted; the thieving gits!
Orc leaders are warlords, bosses and big bosses too;
The Redemptionists are the priest from aliens 3 or aliens 2.
Whichever I can't remember and haven't got time to look;
Oh yeah let's watch the game again and see who has got the ball.
Golem! (phlegm!) Golem! No; not that one!
These golems are Flesh golem's and some are made of stone.
They are creature of magic and are here to smack heads;
And this is the end of the poem…
Dedicated to Games workshop (thank you) and the sport of death!

Better base
This review is from: Panasonic RP-HJE450-R 3.5mm Connector Earbud Headphones - Red
Pros: Good base. Decent mids and highs overall.
Cons: Not really important but I wish they were labeled with the model number somewhere on the body or cord. At least some visual verification of what I have.
Other Thoughts: I decided to try these because the size of the drivers, 12.5mm. I figured that they would have more base. I wasn't disappointed. I also have a pair of Klipsch S3s and these sound much better with somewhat better noise isolation.

Initially disappointed as I thought the chalets were detached but we were lucky to have quiet neighbours, and apart from a little snoring in the early hours, and a smoke alarm going off in the morning, they didn't really bother us at all. We made our own breakfast in the chalet's tiny kitchenette, coffee maker/fridge/toaster/knives and forks, plates, glasses/washing up... More

As in other moments of national stupidity, we've pretty much erased it from our memories, but back in the '70s, during the Arab oil embargo, there was an idea going around that gained considerable popular support:
We present Saudi Arabia and other Mideast oil producers with this proposition: A bushel of wheat for a barrel of oil. The implication being that they take the deal or starve.
The flaw in the proposition was that those countries could go elsewhere — Russia, Central Europe, Latin America — to buy wheat. It would be at greater cost, to be sure, but since OPEC, or the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, had pretty well cornered the world's supply of money, that was not a great obstacle to the sheiks.
Things have changed, although not as much as one would expect.
The United States, rather than running out of oil, keeps finding more of it, and is, in fact, a net energy exporter.
Under the curious economics of supply and demand as they apply to the oil industry, gas is averaging about $3.55 at the pump, a price that would have been laughably high in the '70s. "Oh, it'll get bad," the experts said, "but never that bad."
It may be time to eat a little crow and dust off the crazy barter idea to obtain a product that the Mideast — especially our good friends the Saudis — has in abundance. That would be sand. Maybe we could offer them a bushel of oranges for a bushel of sand, or something along those lines.
It seems that Florida — or parts of it, at least — is running out of sand for beaches, and the beaches are what draw the tourists. No beaches, no tourists, just mosquitoes and the occasional Burmese python.
The solution until now — and not building on coastal land with its protective dunes and swamps is out — has been to go out to sea, pump up sand from the ocean bottom and dump it on the shore to replenish the beach. None of this is cheap.
One estimate is that the state has spent $886 million since 1923, and that doesn't count the federal government's share.
Several coastal counties are running out of sand to dredge up, because of storms and tides that cause beach erosion and, perhaps the worst enemy of all, a rising sea level.
The counties most affected are Miami-Dade — officially out of offshore sand — Broward and Palm Beach in South Florida. They are trying to talk counties farther north, like St. Lucie and Martin, into sharing some of their still-abundant supplies of offshore sand. No deal.
Showing unusual long-range vision for a county commissioner, a breed whose idea of long-range planning is next week, St. Lucie's Frannie Hutchinson asked, "What happens in 50 years when all that sand is gone? Where are we supposed to go then?"
Here's a suggestion: the Rub' al-Khali of Saudi Arabia. It translates into "Empty Quarter," but it's not empty. It's hundreds of thousands of square miles of sand, just sitting there.
If sand could think, it would rather be a beach than a desert, especially a South Florida beach.
It's hard to believe that the Saudis would turn down any reasonable offer for sand that not only do they not use but have no use for. It may sound expensive and far-fetched, but importing Saudi sand is far better, and likely more comfortable, than the current popular proposal — grinding up old beer bottles to make sand.
Even the spring-break crowd doesn't drink enough to make that viable.
Besides, the beer is served in cans or plastic to cut down on injuries.

As I think there are good Linux Distro like Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Linux Mint 13, Pinguy OS, Zorin OS, Joli OS which can be compared to Windows 7 operating System, they all are new in market. There are many more Linux Distro but the one which I have mentioned are the tough competitors for Windows 7.

Alec Bradley Tempus Creo cigars offer a full-bodied, flavored smoke and have never looked back in terms of quality ever since their introduction in 2007/08 . The dark wrapper with a red shade is characteristic of Honduran Criollo '98. The veins on the body are heavy and the packing of the cigar is hard with a foot which contains a motley of spices, coffee, fruit and wine.
The Honduran and Nicaraguan filler gives the cigar a rich, complex flavor of pepper, tobacco and bitter dark chocolate. The Honduran Criollo '98 binder goes well with the wrapper and the filler to give a leathery and meaty feel. With a smoking time of approximately 2 hours, Creo is another dual-banded Tempus from Alec Bradley and is a solid, top-notch cigar. It measures 7 ½ inches in length with a ring gauge of 41.

Stealth Fighter
ISBN13:by O'connor, William B.
Motorbooks Intl
The F-117 Stealth Nighthawk was a truly groundbreaking aircraft when introduced in the early 1980s. The strange shape of the jet, all flat panels and angles, rendered the aircraft nearly invisible to radar. This highly classified program wasn't acknowledged publicly by the U.S. Air Force until 1988. The Nighthawk was retired in 2008 after twenty-five years of service, including bombing missions over Afghanistan and Iraq. Brad O'Connor flew the Nighthawk during the NATO bombing campaign over Kosovo in 1999. His first-person experience puts the reader in the cockpit of this revolutionary combat aircraft. From his F-117 assignment through training, deployment, mission planning, and combat flights, O'Connor relates the day-to-day life of a pilot in the world's first stealth fighter.

Something I find very counter-intuitive about Ember is you can overwrite a computed property setter functions ( http://emberjs.com/#toc_computed-properties-setters ) with the arguments to
create(). See http://jsfiddle.net/zJQJw/2/
I found the best workaround for this is to call
create().setProperties(properties) instead of
create(properties), but this seems like an unnecessary gotcha to me. I realize it might break some apps at this point, but would you consider making
create() behave more like
My motivation for asking for this is that
init() will be called before
setProperties() when using the
create().setProperties(properties) pattern. This hasn't been a big problem yet, but I can see this being undesirable in some situations. This is a completely contrived example, but maybe you can see what I am getting at? http://jsfiddle.net/QJ8vX/2/
The only reason I can see for maintaining the current behavior is to do instance-specific overrides of setter methods. But in those cases you could just as easily do
MyClass.extend({ overridenMethod: ... }).create(properties)
Would a change like this be considered for Ember 1.0? Or do I just have the wrong idea about how Ember's object model should work?

8 sts + 12 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS). When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. The needle or hook size called for in the pattern is based on what the designer used, but it is not unusual for gauge to vary from person to person. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make your swatch, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles. Making a Gauge Swatch
Exact gauges is not imporant to this project.

Hey bike entousiasts,
I've been on a bike my whole life but never fixed one up.
so I thought, why not restore one in the cold months that are about to come here inthe Netherlands.
So I recently bought an old racebike for myself that I would like to restore to a singlespeed.
I bought it with the name recycle on it, but I'm pretty sure thats a name that was later given to the bike.
So now I'm curious what brand really made the bike.
It might even be Dutch, but I have a feeling its japaneese, looking at the parts.
I tried to look up the serial number but no luck.
If you need more pictures or you have more questions, just ask
Here some info
Serial Number EH 01256
Handle bar: Sakae Road Champion
Shifters: Shimano 600
Crankset: Sr Custom
Frame: Reynolds 531 butted frame tubes
Dropouts: Shimano
Chainring: Shimano

I have a laptop with an Intel Wireless Centrino 6300 module. Recently, the machine has stopped properly connecting to my wireless router. It will get stuck in a loop of connecting, then disconnecting and reconnecting. While connected, it will simply say "No Internet Access."
Running inSSIDer 2.0, it shows my network jumping around between two channels -- I know this isn't the case, because I've set my router to sit on one single channel. My MacBook Pro, Boxee Box, PS3, and Xbox 360 all connect fine to the wireless and have no problems at all.
I know it's not the wireless module, as I bought a second one recently assuming the first had died -- but I get the same behavior with both.
Sometimes, I can fix the issue temporarily by deleting the network (Using the Manage Wireless Networks page), and then re-adding it (via standard wireless methods). Then it will work for a few days.
Additional info: Sometimes I can set the channel on my router (A Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH running DD-WRT build 14896), and the laptop will stay connected. Sometimes I put it on auto, and the laptop will stay connected. But eventually it drops back to failing to stay connected. But sometimes it just seems any change at all will cause it to connect.
Worth noting that whatever I do, all my devices continue to hold a connection without issue.
But inevitably the problem comes back, and now the laptop simply won't connect to the wireless at all, even if I take steps that usually work.
Since I've ruled out the hardware, and it's unlikely some kind of interference issue (because I would expect to see it on any multitude of other devices), I would think at this point that it's a problem with Windows itself.
One thing that might be a hint, even though I delete the network, when I add it again, it's always listed as "Wireless Network Connection 2" even though there isn't another in the list.
Another fix I've just found (knock on wood) is to set my router to only do G and N. This isn't a great solution since some of my devices don't use N, and I don't know that it will work long term.
Also, I've asked another question which could very well be related: What is the correct antenna configuration for an Intel Centrino 6300 module on a Dell Studio XPS 16?

Thank you Mangulica, but today I cheer for Colombia. The government of my country does not deserve this credit if Brazil win the World Cup.
big support!!!
Thanks Mangulica. Unfortunately here in Brazil people have short memories, yesterday an accident happened on a work of "Cup" and today people celebrate winning the game against Colombia, and not stop to think about the families of accident victims. This is very sad :(

Just released in January 2011, Canon's new EF Tele Extenders promise to improve image quality over the two earlier generations of teleconverters, which have never proved satisfactory to me on high resolution digital.
Do the new converters offer good enough quality to really not feel like a serious compromise? That's the promise, but remember that performance can vary lens by lens, and can vary on a zoom lens with the focal length. At about $499 each, Canon clearly considers them serious tools.

Seton Catholic and King's Way Christian are moving up the classification ranks.
The private schools with Class 1B enrollment numbers have opted up to play as Class 1A programs and will compete in the Trico League beginning next school year, it was confirmed Wednesday after a meeting of athletic directors.
The moves will not be official until the Washington Interscholastic Activities Associations votes to approve reclassification at its executive meeting Jan. 22-23. But Seton Catholic athletic director Dick Scobba does not expect any more changes to the plan.
"I am reporting to you what was confirmed in a league meeting today," Scobba said Wednesday. "If I got it wrong, it's because they told me wrong."
The addition of Seton Catholic and King's Way will make for a 10-team Trico League beginning next school year in most team sports.
Football will be a nine-school league — at least in 2012 — because King's Way is not ready to compete as a varsity, 11-man football program.
King's Way athletic director Luke Gillock said the Knights will either play a junior varsity football schedule next season or play 1B football as an eight-man program. However, if the Knights play the eight-man game, they will be ineligible for postseason play.
"We're assessing the number of athletes we have right now," Gillick said, referring to football.
Reclassification, though, affects all sports.
"It was a decision that we feel best reflects our current and future needs for the school," Gillock said. "In just about every way, we feel it's a better fit."
Both Scobba and Gillock said the state's set-up for boys soccer was a big factor in the decision to move to 1A. Class 2B/1B boys soccer is a fall sport, but it is a spring sport for other classifications.
Scobba said his school wants to have football and boys soccer programs, but the school is too small to support both sports in the same season.
Gillock said the numbers released to him showed that King's Way is a small 2B school. Seton Catholic will be moving up two classifications. Its numbers, according to Scobba, put the Cougars in as a 1B school.
Meanwhile, Ridgefield is moving from the 1A ranks to join the Class 2A Greater St. Helens League and Woodland is leaving the 2A GSHL to become a 1A program.
The nine-team Trico League will make for an eight-game football league schedule, with room on the calendar for one non-league game. League athletic directors voted to cross over with the 1A Evergreen League for that non-league game, which means Woodland will not be playing some close neighbors.
"I'm excited to get La Center back, but I'm going to miss the Hockinson rivalry and the Ridgefield rivalry," said Paul Huddleston, Woodland's athletic director.
The Trico League will consist of La Center, Stevenson, Castle Rock, Ilwaco, Kalama, Toledo, White Salmon, and newcomers Woodland, Seton Catholic and King's Way.
Hockinson also confirmed Wednesday that it will opt up to the 2A Greater St. Helens League. Beth Tugaw, the school's athletic director, had announced that intention last month but left room for any change of heart. Now it is certain.
"We were making sure we made the right decision," Tugaw said.
That will make for a five-team 2A GSHL with Hockinson, Ridgefield, Washougal, Mark Morris, and R.A. Long.
The 4A and 3A GSHLs expect to have a six-six split, with Camas becoming a 4A program.
The 4A GSHL: Battle Ground, Camas, Evergreen, Heritage, Skyview and Union.
The 3A GSHL: Columbia River, Fort Vancouver, Hudson's Bay, Kelso, Mountain View, and Prairie.

More doctors write poetry than read it. No physician I know, whether in practice or academia, seems to have read a modern poem recently; certainly none has bought a book of verse. That's also true of my friends in law, business, and the media.
More's the pity, because while for the last half century American poetry has been in bloom, the works of Donald Hall, Ann Sexton, Richard Wilbur, Adrienne Rich, John Hollander, Elisabeth Bishop, and Robert Pinsky (our poet laureate) remain unattended in favor of the networks, the journals, and the news. Their works seem destined chiefly to be read by other poets or those who teach poetry. Robert Graves once despaired of a similar fate for his verses, claiming that poets were like the Scilly Islanders who made a living by taking in each other's washing, but nowhere in the Western world was laundry better done.

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Photo from previous loan
Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

OK the topic for this week is: "Tell me how great my bike looks"
After talking about the bike for so long I thought I should post a couple of pics. Thanks to a thread over in "Classic & Vintage" I can now confidently say the bike was made in late 1983, so it is probably a 1984 model.
Now for the real topic for this week. What are the rudest or dumbest things you have seen other bike commuters do? We all have stories of cager abuses, but what about our fellow two wheeled citizens? I have encountered many bike commuters who when passing on an empty 10 - 12ft wide bike path zip by just a few inches from the tip of my handlebars. Not everyone likes to ride in a pack and it always seems like an accident waiting to happen. At the other extreme of these preceision fliers are those people who couldn't ride a straight line if their lives depended upon it. They are swerving all over and apparently oblivious to it all. So tell us of your two wheeled hazards.

lovely :) :)
this is so cute!
Shucks, thanks so much Carina and Suzy! So glad to hear you like it! :D
This is a truly Wonderful piece of art, Nick! … and, I'd like to thank you for supporting my work too. I've noticed that often after some artists are added to a founder's follow list and/or become a front page regulars, they seriously slow down on promoting their fellow artists, or only promote artists that are also front page regulars. Thank you for not following this pattern! Personally, I think one of the best features of S6 is the opportunity we are given to encourage our talented comrades. Just wanted to let you know how much I really admire both your art and your compassionate magnanimous generosity! Instead of thanking you personally in my work's comment box, thought I'd do it in yours. ;-)
Cheers Wayne! Keep up the good work!
i love your work
Awww, shucks... Thanks Sara! :)
great artwork!!! it's so cheerful!
; )
; )
Thanks a bunch for the kind words everyone! Glad you like this piece! :)
Very beautiful
Nice work!
Cheers, Tyler, Tyler, and Tyler! :)

Starting the season with a hot dog at the Bison
A few years back while I was still at Wrestling 411, I made a trip to Fargo in November for the Bison Open. Then-Minnesota assistant Joe Russell walked over to me, hot dog in hand and said, "season doesn't start until you have a hot dog at the Bison."
While that may or may not be true to some wrestling fans, Minnesota makes the four-hour trek across the state to use the tournament as a primer for the season as well as to get an idea of how to juggle the Gopher lineup.
With 10 weights placing six wrestlers apiece, there are 60 total placement spots in the tournament. Minnesota came away with 24 of them — good for 40 percent.
The coaching staff wasn't joking when it said the program had a boatload of wrestlers competing for the starting spot at 157 pounds. The Gophers owned 157 pounds, capturing all six placement spots at 157 pounds.
Seth Lange, who got the start and the win against Hofstra on Friday night, was second, falling to teammate Brad Dolezal. Pat Smith was third, defeating Brandon Kingsley, while Steve Keogh finished fifth, taking a medical forfeit over teammate Wesley Richard.
Tom Giaimo, who wrestled and won for the Gophers on Friday at 149 pounds in the absence of NCAA runner-up Dylan Ness, finished fourth at 149 pounds.
There were some championship matches of note, including Division I heavyweight champion Tony Nelson edging two-time Division II heavyweight champion Matt Meuleners of Northern State 3-2.
Speaking of Joe Russell
Last year, Joe Russell's inaugural season at the helm of the George Mason University wrestling program was a lesson in humility. After being part of Minnesota's national championship program for seemingly forever, Russell's first head coaching job found him doing more hands-on with a wrestling program than he imagined.
Then there was the whole competition side of things.
Last year, the Patriots were blanked by Appalachian State 42-0 in Fairfax. On Sunday, George Mason beat Appalachian State 23-22 on criteria. Minnesota transfer Jake Kettler's fall at heavyweight tied the score at 22. Mason scored more match points and was awarded the victory.
Update: And here we go … again. As of Monday morning (this was originally posted as the clock struck midnight), the result has been changed to award Appalachian State the victory by criteria. So Russell's team doesn't get the win, but in one season, the Patriots still closed the dual gap on the Mountaineers by 42 points. Not counting the tie-breaking criteria point.
And more turnarounds
Last year, South Dakota State went to Indiana and lost to the Hoosiers 30-8. On Saturday, coach Chris Bono's team beat Indiana 19-18. Brandon Ballard's major decision at 197 pounds over Tarek Alaruri gave the Jackrabbits a seven-point advantage and enough of a spread to clinch the dual.
Ames not kind to Illini
A trip to Ames, Iowa wasn't all fun and games for Illinois. While B.J. Futrell picked up the championship at 141 pounds, two other Illini took losses to wrestlers outside of Division I.
Heavyweight Pat Walker fell in the finals to NAIA champion Eric Thompson of Grand View, while Tony Dallago was upended in the semifinals to St. Cloud State's Shamus O'Grady, a three-time Division II All-American who finished fourth at 174 pounds last year.
Twitter blew up midway through Saturday with the news Nebraska redshirt freshman Micah Barnes had upset Jordan Blanton at the Cyclone Open. Barnes did just that, beating Blanton 6-5.
Blanton wouldn't bag it, he wrestled six straight matches back, picking up a major decision, four falls and a technical fall to take third. The tech — against Barnes 16-0.
Remember folks, it's only November.
Getting to the Point
Two Wisconsin Badgers had notable performances at the Pointer Open hosted by the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point.
Jesse Thielke, a Junior World Greco-Roman bronze medalist, won the tournament at 133 pounds, picking up two tech falls and a 19-second fall in the finals. Thielke will be redshirting this season.
Isaac Jordan knocked off reigning Division III champion Nazar Kulchytskyy of UW-Oshkosh 5-2 at 165 pounds.
Shocker of the week
While there were several results that raised eyebrows at the Binghamton Open on Sunday, the biggest in my estimation was Binghamton's Joe Bonaldi coming away with the championship at 141 pounds.
The sophomore from New York went 5-0 with a win over All-American Mike Nevinger en route to the championship.
Bonaldi came in to the tournament 0-1, losing to Lehigh's Anthony Salupo in the Bearcats' 23-16 loss at Lehigh earlier in the week. That's not what was stunning, but Bonaldi was 16-17 last year and lost to Nevinger twice — once by technical fall and another by major decision.
Score (negative) one for the ol' alma mater
Well, Saturday was a good day and a bad day for the ol' alma mater. ODU football beat rival William & Mary, but it wasn't a stellar outing for the wrestling program as they dropped duals to Purdue and Missouri. The Monarchs will likely fall out of the Top 25 when the votes come in on Tuesday, but I've taken a bit of heat via Facebook and Twitter after Missouri beat ODU 35-(-1). Yes, that's a negative one. When you get shut out, and then lose a team point, the only way the numerals can go is down.
While watching the football game and listening to the AWN Live Audio, John Nicholson lost a team point after what could be described as a tantrum after losing 4-1 to Kyle Bradley of Missouri. Not exactly something I want to focus on as an alum, but I guess it was a big deal for Missouri's Sports Information Office, who made light of the deducted team point calling it a historic moment for Mizzou. More like an infamous one for ODU.
Fortunate to have Fortune
Oregon native Tyrell Fortune was one of the top-ranked heavyweights in the nation coming out of high school. On Saturday, Fortune won his second open tournament of the year for Division II Grand Canyon University. Fortune previously won the Cowboy Open at Wyoming and on Saturday at the Roadrunner Open in California, he went 5-0 to win the title at heavyweight.
Fortune beat Stanford's Dan Scherer 6-2 in the finals. He's clearly one to watch in trying to stop two-time Division II champion Matt Meuleners of Northern State from winning a third title.
More from the Roadrunner
Navy's Oscar Huntley had a solid run at the NCAA championships last year, reaching the Round of 12. He started the preseason ranked seventh. His biggest problem this season won't be trying to reach the podium, but trying to win the spot.
Huntley lost in the intrasquad to freshman Matt Miller, then lost to Miller at the Eastern Michigan Open and again to Miller at the Roadrunner Open.
I guess it's a good problem to have for Navy coach Bruce Burnett. Miller won both tournaments and is 9-0 on the season.
Whistlin' Dixie
Dixie State College has been teetering on the brink of becoming a Division II wrestling program. As of now, Dixie State, located in St. George, Utah, is still competing in the NCWA, but there was one notable result from this weekend's Colorado Open at Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction, Colo.
Jalen Weaver, a 197-pounder from St. George, picked up four falls en route to a fifth-place finish at the weight. While a fifth-place finish isn't going to make headlines nationwide, we acknowledge Weaver's four falls against scholarship-level competition as notable.

Iberia Infrared: Perfecting the Experiment
Written by | Joe Nalven | 8:18 a.m., Oct 28, 2012
Over the past several years, I've focused on using the self-published book to profundizar my aesthetic. There is a drama and a mystery about the human condition that is revealed in many ways by many artists - the muses are multiple and their paths infinite, or nearly so.
So, I am on a trek - with a digital infrared camera and Photoshop back at home. On this journey, I am exploring Iberia.
What is Iberia, especially with an infrared sensibility?
http://www.utsandiego.com/users/photos/2012/oct/28/713358/Joe Nalven / Iberia Infrared
Here are some images from my collection, Iberia Infrared, along with some quotes that I did not put into the book.
. . .
I've often lost myself, in order to find the burn that keeps everything awake. Federico García Lorca
. . .

"Very tasty. I don't usually like warm salads, but this one was very nice. Made great leftovers, too. I don't like raw onions (especially in an otherwise warm salad), so I sauteed them in oil before adding."

"Willing to try it but is it good on all meats seafood grilled or fried?"

"Overlooked my potatoes a tad, but still good! Next time I will add fresh garlic, too. Served this with TOH slow cooker pork chops. Both recipes complemented nicely."

"This is a favorite; I've made it several times already. I don't love raw onions, so I leave them out. Otherwise, it's perfect!"

Foggy Faith
On my way to the seaside, crossing the Carpathians, I had this wonderful view! We stayed for about 2 hours admiring (and taking pictures of) the foggy, cloudy mountains! Finally, the fog faded away and a wonderful blue sky appeared!!! It was really wonderful!!!
This specific view lasted for about 2 minutes, the clouds were constantly moving and the cross was covered entirely.
"Foggy Faith" seemed a proper name to me for this image
fog, mountain, cloud
Mystic! ♥♥♥

SANDY, Ore. — Police say a pedestrian in Sandy was struck and killed by a motorist who has been charged with assault and drunken driving.
Sandy police Officer Samuel Craven said Michael Topliff, 41, was hit late Friday by a Ford Mustang headed north on Beers Avenue. He died Saturday at a Portland hospital.
The motorist, Philip Krogstad, 32, of Sandy, initially fled before returning on foot, Craven said. Krogstad's blood-alcohol content was .14, nearly twice the legal limit, police said.
Krogstad's car was found at his apartment complex, a block from the crash scene.
He was booked into the Clackamas County Jail. Craven said additional charges are likely because the victim died.

Born on July 18, 1979 in Preston, ID, an idyllic rural town that would later serve as the prime location for his breakout movie, Hess determined early in life to become a filmmaker. After graduating from Preston High School, he began working as a camera assistant for T.C. Christiansen, a director of photography for IMAX films, before moving on to attend Brigham Young University. It was there that he studied film and met his future wife and collaborator, Jerusha Demke. Hess forged another significant relationship at BYU with actor Jon Heder, who later became famous as the titular "Napoleon Dynamite." Before making the feature, Hess wrote and directed a nine-minute, 16mm black-and-white precur... Continue Bio >>

So please help me know where to go from here! Should I get some official thing like a handwriting curriculum? Should I start something like Learn to Read in 100 Easy Lessons? Like I said he is kind of resistant to me sitting down with him to instruct or explain but when we do he really enjoys the result. Or should I just let him bumble along and have him re-learn proper letter formation when he is a bit older and more suited to formal schooling? I am confused.
I wasn't planning on starting yet but...

Fixing it later is going to be much worse than teaching him properly now. At a minimum I would print out a chart so he can see how the letters should be made. Or you could get him a handwriting workbook, or if you have an iPad or iPod touch there's several free tracing apps.
www.hwtears.com/hwt/educators/teach... Here's some downloadable charts from a popular program.

Thanks for the link. I have been to that website looking at the products but I was kind of confused with what I would get (if anything).
So, because of how I am in my mind, I DO want something structured for ME, at least til I get comfortable. Would it be okay to just get the HWT workbook and go through it very slowly, maybe reinforcing with extra worksheets as needed? My sister is starting her 3 year old this year but basically with just a Brain Quest workbook.
Ramble, ramble, I know. Anyway, based off of the info in the OP, does anyone have suggestions for curricula appropriate for a 3.5 year old? I think whatever it is I could teach to him at his pace and level - the issue is that I don't know what to teach. I need to start with the very basics.

Yep, you can do HWT with a 3yo. They used the program in the preschool my kids went to. If he is starting to do school type things on his own then it's a sign he's ready. My ds at 3yrs never would have voluntarilly picked up a crayon and started writing letters!
www.zaner-bloser.com/zaner-bloser-h... You can use the free version of this to print out handwriting sheets of your own making, great if you want him to practice his name etc.
There are tons of options for early reading. Starfall.com and ProgressivePhonics.com are both free and very nice. 100EZ lessons and OPGTR are popular books for teaching reading. We've used OPGTR and it's completely scripted. My ds doesn't care for it as much, but it worked great for my dd. Ds prefers progressive phonics and Explode the Code workbooks (they come in preschool level too, but if he's already reading CVC words you'll probably want to start with level 1 and just don't expect him to do all the writing)

Didn't read the PP....but abcjesuslovesme has a print out singy-songy way to make the letters. That might help. You can sing the song while practicing how to do it. They also have pre-writing pages where you start on the green dot and stop on the red type of thing.
ODD/15yrs,ODS/12yrs (ASD), YDS/6yrs (EDS, MVP)
With kids who are resistant to having mum show them how to do things I think it helps to find something that will point them in the right direction without them realizes it. I would look for some writing sheets that make it very plain the letters should start at the top. Some come with a red dot an arrow or numbers. Same with an app, don't use one that lets them make it any old way, but tells them to start at the correct spot.
On the flip side you can also turn it into a craft which doesn't have a correct or wrong way. My daughter liked alpha buddies. www.dltk-teach.com/alphabuddies/let... Apart from those any large letter printout could be used and have things glued onto it. Even better if you can find gluable things that start with that letter. So for 'b' 'B' he could glue on buttons, 's' 'S' string. Moulding play dough to the shape of a large letter helps with both recognizing the letter and is good for developing fine motor control.
Don't worry if he goes off with something but has no interest in other areas. Just use the opportunities for learning where he is showing an interest. I don't believe there is any such thing as being 'behind' in colouring. That describes a lot of boys. Just offer activities to help with fine motor control such as the playdough, threading, using a dropper with water, tongs and tweezers. Make it a game, can he carry some smarties from one bowl to another bowl with these tongs? If he can he gets to eat them! I did that with my daughter with a bag of corn chips and a pair of chop sticks with the issue she was allowed to eat as many as she wanted-so long as she used the chop sticks! Lol, that kept her occupied for ages.

A huge part of me honestly cringes when I think of teaching a 3 1/2 yo boy to print. Perhaps it is the preschool teacher in me. Perhaps it is the fact that I have brought up four boys past preschool age. It may even have much to do with the influence of Raymond Moore's book, Better Late Than Early.
Then again, Glen Doman and books like Teach Your Baby To Read and Teach Your Baby To Be Physically Superb have also had a balancing infuence.
What I know from experience is that you can't push a child if you follow this one rule: Stop Before The Child Wants To Stop. I may not agree with appraoching handwriting with a young boy, but I do know that rule works with whatever you do. Stop before he wants to stop and you will have a lure to lead him back another time. If he says no, I would find something else for him.
Give him an eye dropper and let him squeeze just a drop of food coloring into a clear jar. Let hm mix the colors and see how red plus blue become purple. Give him a pair of tweezers and let him put small beads or marbles onto each one of the suction cups on a small piece cut from an old bath mat or on one of those bath mat shapes turned upside down so the suction cup shows. Let him fill egg carton sections with beans using a very small spoon. This will help hand-eye coordination. Give him scissors and strips of colored paper. Let him cut the strips into squares. Then let him glue the squares to another paper. Give him a cotton swab and pour glue into a small cap so that he can apply the glue dot by dot. Not only does that cut down on glue mess, it provides more hand eye coordination and motor control practice. Give him clay instead of play dough. It is harder to manipulate so it works the hand more. It is messy, so have him work on a mat. The messy factor may keep him at it longer. Make bean bags and let him create a target. Make the scoring points only 1 point each. Help him add the total from his throws. Use raisins to help add the points. Let him eat his score when he is done. That is large motor and math, but why not add that to the mix? After all, he already thinks Mom comes up with the coolest fun games. ;) Let him draw letters with his fingers in pudding or shaving cream. Let him trace (with his index finger) a letter written with a Sharpie marker onto a piece of very fine sand paper. Include arrows for him to follow so that he learns the direction for proper letter formation.
R+S=Z,A,T,j,~d~,m Z+K=r
If you figured out those equations,
give yourself a star!
I am torn between jumping in and letting things be. But like I said, although he is figuring stuff out on his own, I don't want him to learn things wrong and have to go back and break the bad habits later. Still in research phase!
