Arc'teryx Launch Footwear Lineadded Jun/2014, see all Arc'teryx news & reviews
Product news by Jack Geldard - Consulting Editor
© Jack Geldard
Some of the weekend wasn't spent in the high mountains, instead a team of designers, manufacturers and product specialists used their time to show off the new shoes to a whole bunch of journalists and judging by the amount of camera flashes going off and notes being scribbled, these shoes are clearly going to make headlines.
Arc'teryx being Arc'teryx (very high end and usually high priced kit manufacturers), they haven't just made a bling pair of trainers. They have come up with a whole new 'footwear system'. This actually involves a Gore-Tex liner (removable on some models) that sits inside a very fast drying outer shell. It looks a bit space age.
I've got to say that whilst this was billed as something revolutionary, I have 2 pairs of mountain boots and 2 pairs of ski boots sat at home with a similar design principle of shell and inner, although having the waterproof membrane as part of the liner instead of the outer is something new, at least to me.
With loads of funky features, hours and hours of R&D, the highest performing fabrics that are available on the market today (so we were told), and a very unique style, time will tell if these new Arc'teryx shoes become a market leader.
They are light, apparently hard wearing, very comfortable and very breathable. Usually I'm not a fan of waterproof trainers or approach shoes, as I get too sweaty, but Arc'teryx are sending some of these new shoes to UKC for a thorough testing, so we shall report back in due course and see if this really is something to this 'Adaptive Fit Technology'.
Until then here is the Arc'teryx Press Release:
Arc'teryx Technical Performance Footwear: The Adaptive Fit Advantage
Vancouver, BC – The design and construction of footwear hasn't fundamentally changed for years. Canadian company Arc'teryx, pioneer in thermoforming and lamination, now introduces their new line of Technical Performance Footwear for Spring 2015: a line that defies current methods of shoe construction and sets a new standard in comfort and durability.
Outdoor boots offering the comfort of hut slippers have long been wishful thinking. The rugged and technical nature of mountain terrain requires sturdier materials; the need for warmth and waterproofness adds more material and diminish the wearer's comfort.
After an intense R&D phase, the Arc'teryx footwear team now introduces the new Arc'teryx Technical Performance Footwear: Eight shoe styles for men and women, separated into low-cut approach shoes (Acrux FL) and mid-cut Hiking and light trekking boots (Bora Mid). All of them share the 'Arc'teryx Adaptive Fit': separately manufactured inner and outer shoes that work together for the best fit-adaptability, breathability and weather protection. In the top-of-the-line styles Acruxa2 FL GTX and Bora2 Mid, the liners are completely removable and interchangeable for improved wash and dry-ability and to extend the use and climate adaptability of the shoes.
The durable outer shell is made from a seamless one piece upper that is laminated from four layers of technical, hydrophobic materials. A large breathable woven PU coated nylon yarn insert area allows for air exchange while increasing durability. Those four layers build the upper shoe:
- a non-woven DWR-treated microfiber for smooth internal surface
- a textile woven with PU coated Nylon yarn for air flow and abrasion resistance
- 0,2 mm TPU film build integral upper support
- 0,35 mm high abrasion TPU film reinforcement on more exposed areas
The liner aspect of the shoes is the secret to the outstanding Arc'teryx footwear fit. All liners are separately manufactured, using Gore-Tex® Performance ComfortTM Stretch membrane for the whole bootie. The special construction reduces glue points and the absence of a tongue gives the liner an even better breathable surface area and increased waterproof coverage. An air permeable EVA foam integrated in the liner adds air-flow between skin and outer shoe. The whole liner package is stretchable and conforms to each individual foot shape for a new level of fit comfort.
In the top styles Acruxa2 FL GTX Men's and Bora2 Mid, those liners are completely removable for improved wash-ability, dry-ability and can also be used separately of the shell as a hut/camp shoe. To extend the use and the climate adaptability of the shoe Acruxa2 FL GTX and Bora2, different liners offering higher water protection and insulation are available separately.
"From the very beginning, our goal was to bring a fresh perspective to footwear that enhances the overall mountain experience. We have a rich history of thinking beyond current materials and construction and everything about these shoes reveals the Arc'teryx genetic code of understanding what a products needs to be at its most essential level." Federico Sbrissa, Arc'teryx Footwear Product Line Manager. "By incorporating techniques like lamination, we developed shoes that offer unprecedented durability, comfort and precision performance in the most breathable mountain footwear construction on the market."

About space: Saturday, August 29, 2009
City group studies impact feesState Rep. Guy Liebmann, R-Oklahoma City, said he wants to find middle ground between homebuilders and Oklahoma municipalities on the use of impact fees. Liebmann held an interim study this week to discuss ways to improve the last legislative session's Senate Bill 805, which would have imposed stricter guidelines on how cities and towns assessed and used impact fees. Such fees are charged to new developments to help pay for their impact on population growth and municipal infrastructure. The interim study also involved Mike Means, executive vice president of the Oklahoma State Home Builders Association, Oklahoma City Manager Jim Couch and Carolyn Stager, executive director of the Oklahoma Municipal League.
Equestrian designer joins firmKANSAS CITY, Mo. — Populous, a design practice, has added international equestrian designer Todd Gralla of Norman as a principal and director of equestrian services. Gralla and key staff, based in Norman, will provide master planning and design services for domestic and international equestrian and fairgrounds clients. Gralla will focus on both permanent and temporary equestrian sporting venues, racecourses and training venues, horse parks, polo clubs, private and public equestrian centers and private equine ventures. He is the former director of equestrian services and practice leader for Gralla Equestrian Architects in Norman.

Please supply the correct answer.
There are two small muscles in the anus (opening from the rectum) that help to control bowel movements. These muscles are known as internal and external sphincters (sfink-ters). (Figures 1 and 2)
These muscles are normally closed to prevent uncontrolled leakage of bowel movements. To have a bowel movement, these muscles must relax and open at the same time. Anal manometry is a test that studies how these muscles are working.

So they included the Bill of Rights, based on the notion of individual self-determination.

Deep tissue massage is a type of massage aimed at the deeper tissue structures of the muscle, also called connective tissue. Deep tissue massage uses many of the same movements and techniques as Swedish massage, but the pressure will generally be more intense. It is also a more focused type of massage, as the therapist works to release chronic muscle tension or knots. It is likely to be a bit more uncomfortable than a classic Swedish massage. Deep Tissue Massage can be adapted to suit your needs and can be performed in any area of the body that may suffer injury or tension

It doesn't come much better than this wonderful little hotel, almost a B&B, in beautiful Ronda. The only thing that would have made it better was being on the cliff with a view!

In other words, these universities unnecessarily reduced the pay of hard-working professionals, and for no other purpose than to say that they did so.

* In academia, conferences matter.
This paper provides evidence for the role of conferences in generating visibility for academic work, using a 'natural experiment': the last-minute cancellation — due to 'Hurricane Isaac' — of the 2012 American Political Science Association (APSA) Annual Meeting. We assembled a dataset containing outcomes of 15,624 articles scheduled to be presented between 2009 and 2012 at the APSA meetings or at a comparator annual conference (that of the Midwest Political Science Association). Our estimates are quantified in difference-in-differences analyses: first using the comparator meetings as a control, then exploiting heterogeneity in a measure of session attendance, within the APSA meetings. We observe significant 'conference effects': on average, articles gain 17-26 downloads in the 15 months after being presented in a conference. The effects are larger for papers authored by scholars affiliated to lower tier universities and scholars in the early stages of their career. Our findings are robust to several tests.

§ 1. A survey. Leadership was an unusually prominent factor in American city affairs in the opening years of the twentieth century. This was a natural result of the tendency to personify good government which had brought the executive to a predominant place in the nation, state, and locality. Perhaps as an inevitable outcome of separation of powers, a minimizing of the legislative branch was the accompaniment. This contrasted greatly with the dominance of the legislature under the parliamentary system.
The activity of the later years of the preceding century was a forerunner of a new phase in municipal administration. City government had now leaders, students, and a literature. Material on all aspects of the subject

Since 1998, Massachusetts has proudly offered many of their customers with the unique power to choose their own electricity provider. This state-appointed electricity deregulation effort allows residents to pick their ideal competitive electricity rate from independent providers, instead of simply receiving a fixed rate from their local utility supplier.
Massachusetts' innovative system allows customers to shop for electricity rates for both their residential and business properties, giving them a choice in how they receive their energy. This means the more than 150 electric companies within the state now offer competitive energy plans and different offers and incentives, in an effort to earn the business of area residents.
Statewide, individual electric cooperatives have embraced deregulation and now offer a variety of energy plans, designed to fit the needs of all types of customers. From short-term to long-term plans, to plans with special add-ons and even ones that use completely renewable energy sources, these provides offer something for every type of area electricity consumer.
Do You Have the Power to Choose?
While there are some residents of Massachusetts that lie outside the deregulation borders, this incentive allows more than 2.5 million residents within the state to pick their electric providers.
If you lie within one of these four service areas, then you do. The deregulated area of the state is split up into the following service regions:
National Grid (Massachusetts Electric) – Serves over 1 million members in 168 communities throughout the state including Brockton, Worchester, Franklin Marlborough, Southbridge, Newbury Port, North Adams and many surrounding counties.
National Grid (Nantucket Electric) – Provides service to Nantucket Island.
NSTAR – Covers more than 1 million residents including Boston and 81 surrounding communities such as Barnstable, Plymouth, New Bedford and Edgartown.
Western Massachusetts Electric (WMECo) – Serves the western portion of the state including Pittsfield, Becket, Greenfield, Windsor and Springfield.
If you remain unsure about the boundaries of these service areas, and whether or not you lie within a deregulated utility, visit our proprietary shopping tool on Electric Choice for more insight. Simply type in your zip code, and we'll let you know if you're eligible to shop for a new electricity provider.
Shopping for the Best Massachusetts Electricity Providers
Massachusetts electricity consumers who have never shopped for a new energy provider before, likely had their account roll over with their old energy provider when deregulation took effect. If you are one of these customers, you could be overpaying for electricity. By taking the time to shop for a new electric company, you can start saving money on your monthly bill, all without experiencing any disruption in your service.
With our easy-to-use system, you can enjoy more savings and more options with your electric service. Whether you've never shopped for new electric rates, or you just want to see if you can lower your Massachusetts electricity bill, shopping for a new provider is easy:
1. Decide what feature you most value in your new electricity rates, including whether you want a fixed or variable rate plan.
2. Use our simple shopping tool to be certain on the service area your home lies in.
3. Examine each company's rates and compare their offers, until you find your ideal match.
Shopping for the Best Massachusetts Electricity Rates
Are you ready to see what type of low energy rates you could be enjoying?
Visit our comprehensive shopping tool and simply type in your Massachusetts zip code. If you live in one of the state's deregulated areas, we'll provide you with a variety of plans and pricing from local area providers.

Publisher's Description
The Peace Corps was established in 1961 during the Kennedy administration, symbolizing a new direction in foreign policy-making for the United States. Founded on large aid programs staffed by volunteers, the agencys primary goal was to help modernize Third World countries while guarding against the expansion of communism.
Julius A. Amin interprets the motives behind the development of the Peace Corps and analyzes the program and performance of its volunteers in Cameroon during the 1960s. He bases his study on previously unused primary sources, including the completed questionnaires of returned volunteers and the diaries and letters they donated to him. He also provides extensive interviews conducted in Cameroon where, as a student, he was taught by the volunteers and later worked as their colleague.
Amin finds that the volunteers contributed greatly to the social and educational development of Cameroon and made many new American friends within the host country. On a broader level, they learned about themselves and other people, and returned to the United States determined to reeducate Americans about Africa. Amin notes, however, that the volunteers expressed difficulty in justifying the ideals of American democracy to the Cameroonians in light of such issues as racism in America and U.S. intervention in Vietnam.
Washington policymakers have seldom involved returned volunteers in discussions concerning the Third World. Amin believes that the volunteers could be invaluable in stimulating a renewed friendship between America and Third World countries, and in helping to explain why programs designed to assist Third World development often fail at the implementation stage.
The Peace Corps in Cameroon also contains a comparitive analysis of the agencys work in the neighboring countries of Ghana and Guinea, where its efforts were not as successful. In addition, it features numerous photographs of volunteers at work in Cameroon and maps to complement the text.
This pioneer study contributes to Africanist/American scholarship in general, and specifically adds to the historical literature about Peace Corps volunteers in a Third World country. It is must reading for anyone interested in similar endeavors in African countries or in the overall effectiveness of the Peace Corps program.

Best Value in Photography!,
This review is from: Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Camera Lens - Fixed (Discontinued by Manufacturer) (Camera)
Wow! My theory now is that Canon doesn't put this baby as their kit lens because many people would decide that they DONT NEED ANOTHER ONE! And many of them would be right!
Like others, I bought the Rebel XT and the 28-135 IS lens. The 28-135 is heavy and priced like a gold brick. I guess it does OK, and I do keep it mounted most of the time.
And like others, I stumbled on this lens somehow, read the raving reviews, and for the price figured, "What the heck?"
This lens in tack sharp. It shows the fire in the colors you photograph. The wide aperture means candles can be excellent lights for portraits. Its narrow field is great.
There are pitfalls though. I snapped a pic of my face at arm's length using autofocus a while back and (1) the focus locked on the tip of my nose and my face was already blurring (2) the lens was so sharp that I saw blackheads clearly on my nose tip I can't really see in the mirror (doh!). I've read that dSLR images are slightly soft to aid in later editing. I can only imagine what it would do on a film camera.
Yesterday while camping I slapped this lens on. Unlike the 28-135, this one is light enough that I didnt notice I was carrying a camera everywhere. At night I put the lens on the top of the car pointed at the sky, set the shutter for 15 secs, and hit the button. Much to my amazement, the lens not only showed hundreds of stars that were invisible to my eyes, but it also found a galaxy. That pic is on the customer image section of this page. You can see what I saw, but the smaller size doesnt do the lens justice.
One quirk of Amazon is that this page keeps alternating pictures of lenses. This lens does not have the distance focus scales on the outside of it.
Zoom is nice for many things. But where zoom isnt necessary, performance is very, very nice. Performance at $70 is almost too good to be true.
Let me close by repeating what has been said elsewhere and will continue to be said here....IF YOU OWN A SLR, STOP NOW AND GET THIS LENS!
UPDATE 12/06 I have owned this lens for about a year now. Over that time I have immersed myself in photography, workshops, books, tests, etc. I have since upgraded to the 30D and a couple of L lenses, and now have a portfolio strong enough that I am now getting dollar signs thrown at me that I didnt even see coming. I say all this to give you some perspective on what I will write afterward.
Now that Ive really learned the difference, I can agree with others that it is a tad soft wide open, but that is to be expected. I read a lens test recently that put the 1.8 against Canons heavweight L glass, and, not surprisingly, the L beat out the $70 plastic wonder in most categories. What might surprise you, however, is that when the lens was tested at F 8 it BEAT THE L GLASS in sharpness! As one that has felt the pain of trading large sums of money for L glass, I appreciate affordable quality...not something anyone can plan on seeing much of in photography.
My 28-135 has since joined my kit lens in the garage. The 1.8 is still in my case with my newer 30D.
With some experience under my belt I now would make the following recommendation. Right now, as you read this, you may have an idea if you've been bitten by the photog bug. You may know that this beast is going to morph into something more than a simple pasttime. If you look inside the depths of your aspirations and you know that you are going to be a serious amateur, bite the bullet and get the 50mm 1.4. Trust me on this one. Eventually you'll end up getting it anyway, so just apply the $70 to the 1.4 now.
If you're just exploring different areas of SLR photography, you cant go wrong with this lens. Case in point- as of this writing the baby in pink in the customer images section of this lens is one of the top-ten rated images of all pics uploaded on Amazon! This lens will allow you to dazzle friends and relatives used to snapshots from point & shoots. It will be the start of what you upgraded to a DSLR for in the first place. For you, the 1.8 is still, by far, the best value in photography!

Eric, it really is a great lens - my first prime, and it blew me away. My husband, who was into film photography and fast primes felt this lens holds up to some of his favorites. And while the build quality is meh, the optics are awesome as is its lower light performance.

I agree with you about the quailty of this lens. I just purchased the Canon 50D with the 28-135mm lens and I love it! The images are great and yes it is the primary lens on my camera most of the time. Being a returning college student majoring in photography I feel this lens is essential in a camera bag.

Thanks for pointing that out I. Sorkin, but if you had read my post I wrote that I purchased the 50mm along with the 28-135mm, which is the kit lens for the 50D. I also posted that I loved the 50mm and didn't say anything about what I thought about the 28-135mm lens. Perhaps you should read the post more carefully before posting. a reply.

Just curious did you get the 50mm? If so what did you think?

I think getting Real is a blessing in disguise for us as i believe they are the team to beat whether in the final of at this stage.
meeting them at this stage means if we beat them we stamp our authority on the cup if we lose we save the wasted time on the way to meeting them and can get on with the league. I have my doubts we'll do it because our defence isn't solid at the moment but with our attack anything is possible and we are in for 2 yummy legs hopefully. As for what any other teams supporters think. I DON'T CARE
I don't know which one of the idiots you are, but you're a disgrace to yourself.

A lot of companies provide an operations update about a week before eanings. Would really like to know where they stand with other RC plant and AC sales. Given Q4 earings will stink and look just like Q3, the update is a lot more imporant to me vs the earnings release. Q1 will be improved due to the plant that just sold, but we won't see earnings really climb/exelerate until Q2.
I'm wondering why no analyst have commented? Seems like a rosy time advise.
There is no upside for analysts to touch this until AFTER the Q4/FY2012 results are released. We know that those are gonna be horrendous on a "headline" basis, so best for the analysts to let that flush through before sticking their collective necks out. I'd expect to start seeing upgrades (and maybe some new initiations) in the days and weeks following the upcoming conference call.

After the first embrace from you
My senses knew the look of love was in your eyes
And after we first make love
Our senses tingle to the touch, oh how we hypnotize
Oh, to get the feeling on and on
Oh, just to get the feeling
Holding you closer in my arms
We drift to heaven bringing in the morning light
And after all is said and done
There's only us, we can make it right
So, our love will carry on and on
Now our love will be free, be free
And when we play, love don't delay, I hear you now
For what was then is what is now, anyhow
As I became a guest of love's tune, hear again
We'll carry on together like today
After the first embrace from you, I want you too
After the first embrace from you, I want you too

"What's most important to us is that this become not just an adult-driven enterprise that is a requirement but rather that it's something that is internalized by our young people, who then want to do something more," said Stephen Wallace, a director at Cape Cod Sea Camps in Brewster, Mass.
Every summer the camp fields a team of staff and older teens who ride in the Pan-Massachusetts Challenge, a three-day bike-a-thon that crosses the commonwealth to raise money for cancer research and treatment at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. The camp raised $130,000 for the cause last summer, he said.
"Despite what you hear about adolescence being this time of dysfunction, when you really look at it many young people are immersed in paying something forward. That's how we talk about it," said Wallace.
Junior counselors can also complete camp requirements through service the rest of the year via peer counseling, coaching youth sports, tutoring younger kids or assisting the elderly, the homeless or others in need.
At Camp Towanda in Honesdale, Pa., director Mitch Reiter also extends summer service through the year.
During the seven-week summer session for 400 girls and boys, campers find sponsors for a swim-a-thon that benefits Project Morry, which hosts a camp for poor kids who would not otherwise be able to afford camp.
Towanda campers find sponsors and swim laps for money, which is matched dollar-for-dollar by Reiter and his wife. They have raised between $7,000 and $14,000 a year for Project Morry for the last 10 years or so, Reiter said.
"What I tell the kids is that every dollar makes a difference," he said.
Not all camps talk up service, but provide opportunities nevertheless.
Cheley Colorado Camps in Estes Park doesn't actively market itself as service-focused, said Jeff Cheley, the fourth generation in his family to run the camp.
"It's not an overriding theme, but we use community service as a vehicle. Our mission talks about building character and resiliency and it helps foster those skills," he said.
Cheley partners with the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics, which teaches people of all ages how to enjoy the outdoors responsibly, to provide service days for campers to help maintain trail heads, do landscape work or participate in cleanup projects in the national park, he said.
"Are all our campers lining up to do it? Probably not," Cheley acknowledged. Still, he said, today's kids are more focused on service, "especially because a lot of high schools are making them do it."
Tyler, the Caps Count founder, was nervous about leaving home on his 2010 trip to Costa Rica, but he actively went in search of a service opportunity when he found Westcoast Connection and it's 360 Student Travel Program.
He plans to turn over his charity to his younger brother, soon to be 14, when he heads to college in the fall. He hopes to study business and continue as an entrepreneur.
"I really wanted to do community service," Tyler said. "It felt like a more productive way to spend a summer. A lot of times when you travel you really only get to see the touristy towns. I wanted to see how people really live."

A Vascularized Bioreactor for Cardiovascular Tissue Engineering
For the millions of Americans who are born with or develop heart disease, stem cell research offers the first real hope of reversing or repairing heart muscle damage. In addition to their regenerative potential, human stem cells offer an unprecedented opportunity to study mechanisms of human disease and develop and test novel therapies. However, these new applications are limited by the lack of culture conditions that replicate complex tissue structures. Theses limitations are particularly apparent for many cardiovascular diseases. Thus, there is a great need for laboratory biotechnologies that replicate the 3-D microenvironment and conditions seen in patients. We propose to create synthetic human heart muscle in culture with perfused bioreactors. Bioreactors are contained reaction vessels for the controlled culture of cells to create tissues in a dish. The models and knowledge gained from these studies will facilitate the creation of cardiovascular disease-in-a-dish models and systems to reliably screen new therapies.
Heart disease, stroke and other cardiovascular diseases are the #1 killer in California. Despite medical advances, heart disease remains a leading cause of disability and death. Recent estimates of its cost to the U.S. healthcare system amounts to almost $300 billion dollars. Although current therapies slow the progression of heart disease, there are few, if any options, to reverse or repair damage. Thus, regenerative therapies that restore normal heart function would have an enormous societal and financial impact not only on Californians, but the U.S. more generally. The research that is proposed in this application could lead to new therapies that would restore heart function after and heart attack and prevent the development of heart failure and death. We will develop the techniques and models that will allow the development and testing of cardiovascular therapies. Combining tissue engineering with disease-specific human pluripotent stem cells will facilitate the creation of cardiovascular disease-in-a-dish models and systems to reliably screen new therapies.

So my last viist with the OB this past Monday had me wondering if I need a perinatologist? She said she was nervous to have me because I am too, too high risk, those were her words.
Here's my deal, I go into preterm labor each time, this is baby #4. I got a post partum blood infection with my first, I lost 2 liters of blood with my second during his birth. I pPROM'ed with my last one at 29 weeks, we held her in with the leak on bedrest in the hospital until 36 weeks. And this pregnancy I have a subchronic hemorrage that is 1.7cm around the placenta. Do you think I can stick with my regular OB or should I look for a perinatologist? I'm sure she'll bring it up and actually I have a feeling she will with her reaction. I was just wondering what you all thought, thanks!

School will continue using Fighting Sioux nickname - CNN.com
looks like they get to keep their name.
Personally, I think that's a bunch of BS that the NCAA is trying to pull.
From what I am told from a donor up at UND, the tribe wants them to keep their name, and the AD didn't really do anything to support the tribe.
I hate that some of these schools are being forced to have their names changed. What about the poor Cowboys, Pioneers, Patriots, and the Irish. Shouldn't they have to change also? ridiculous.
Great news. I can now buy one of their jerseys anytime.
I'm not a Native American and I don't pretend to understand why they've elected to make a big deal out of this. Winning national titles can't do anything but help get them in the national discourse. What's a greater offense here? Misdirected visibility of the Sioux Nation or no visibility?
Why stir up trouble if the tribe doesn't want to give their blessing?

The greater offense is that a bunch of suits in Indianapolis are selectively targeting schools in an effort to seem politically correct, while in reality, it's just a bullying tactic.

First they are Lakota tribes, not Sioux, even though everyone calls them Sioux.
I am somewhat familiar with this fight. The article is somewhat misleading as there are two tribes in ND. The first one, Spirit Lake tribe, all voted as a nation, to let the U of ND continue using the name. The other tribe, Standing Rock is being held hostage by the tribal council, which won't let a whole tribal vote be held. THEY APPEAR TO WANT MORE MONEY TO BE GIVEN TO THE TRIBAL COUNCIL MEMBERS.
The school is being held hostage by this tribe. Approval by BOTH tribes is required to continue to use the FIGHTING SIOUX name., just like the Florida Seminoles do.
Both tribes receive a totally free education at UND.
I have a good friend, who has lived in Grand forks, ND area for over 30 yrs and has kept me informed of the whole sad story. He and I have been to BB and Hockey games there. If you think the ISU-IOWA football game is big, you ought to see the rivalry of the UND-Minnesota hockey games. Two hockey games at each site sometimes twice a year.
I made the mistake of saying I would come up to see a men's hockey game against Minn, the same day Bobby Knight brought his first Texas Tech team to Ames. I had already seen a women's hockey game up there on a previous visit and was told the rivalry between Minn and UND was huge. IT WAS. The FULL plane from Minneapolis to Grand Forks on Thursday before the Friday and Saturday games were all Minn hockey fans. The series was a sellout in a better than pro hockey arena, built by a big deceased donor. He was alive when the bruhaha started over the FIGHTING SIOUX name started and made sure the the words FIGHTING SIOUX are everywhere. IN THE SIGNS, IN THE FLOOR TILE, IN THE WALL TILES, ANYWHERE YOU LOOKED.
We got tickets from a friend who worked at the airport and had connections, but only for one of the two nights as they are very expensive and in high demand. The teams split this weekend series and played another series later in the season in Minn.

For the sake of consistency, the NCAA needs to move from Indianapolis unless the city changes its name.
Cool Logo
This fight has been going on for years and I've never understood why the tribes are upset about this. Its neither "hostile or abusive" to the tribes. Its the "Fighting Sioux" and if anything pays homage to the Sioux who put up one hell of a fight in the second half of the 19th century.
Also, the University would lose the trust fund set up to pay for operating expenses at Engelstad Arena. I believe the trust fund is forfeited if UND goes by another name other than Fighting Sioux. They wouldn't be able to maintain or keep the lights on in that awesome arena, which would be a damn shame.
We're gonna have to get LakesBison on here to get his opinion of the enemy.
Can someone find him and pull him away from a drinking game is probably dominating right now, and ask him about this?

That is actually inaccurate. The "Sioux" are comprised of Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota divisions. The North Dakota tribes are generally Dakota, including the Spirit Lake Tribe. The Lakota tribes are generally in western South Dakota.
