UPDATED: Brandon Marshall underwent recent hip surgery
Well, how's this for a lightning bolt on the second day of OTA's?
Brandon Marshall underwent a "routine procedure," according to Miami Dolphins coach Tony Sparano, and it's uncertain whether he'll make it back in time for the start of training camp.
UPDATE: A league source said it was Marshall's hip that prompted the procedure and that it was the same hip he had repaired nearly 14 months ago.
Sparano would not specify the body part Marshall had repaired and tried to downplay the issue when pressed, but it's still a pretty stunning blow for a team that burned two second-round draft picks and a $50 million contract on a single player.
"It's going to take some time right now," Sparano said. "We'll see where it is. The process is getting better right now each day, so we'll see where it goes. I don't know whether or not he'll participate in any OTA's."
Asked if the team expected this when it signed Marshall on April 14, Sparano paused.
"I would say that … uh … well … no," he said. "Just came up. It's something that's no different than Nate Garner (recent injury) or anybody else right now. It's just something that came up, we needed to get it cleaned up and we did.
"It's good. We don't play a game today. We play a game down the road."
Sparano went on to say he felt "no disappointment at all" with the news about Marshall, who rode a stationary bike for a while during Tuesday's practice but did nothing else more strenuous than standing in the offensive backfield taking "mental reps" during team drills.
"He's been here for [four] weeks now, throwing and catching and doing all the things necessary," Sparano said. "He was throwing and catching the day that the procedure was done, so [I'm] not even concerned about that."
Still, when Sparano says "we'll see" about whether Marshall will make it back for training camp, which should start around Aug. 1, it makes you wonder.
"Just depends on how long it takes," Sparano said.
How about you? Are you concerned?
By the way, it was a balky hamstring that caused Marshall to miss his final game with the Broncos (with a team suspension thrown in).
Other notable Marshall injuries in recent years included the hip problem that required surgery on March 31, 2009. He was back from that in time for Broncos training camp but his erratic practice speed led to a two-game team suspension last preseason.
On March 22, 2008, Marshall reportedly slipped on an empty McDonald's bag while wrestling with family members, which led to him falling through a TV set at his home in Orlando and cutting his right forearm. This mishap required surgery to repair damage to "one artery, one vein, one nerve, two tendons and three muscles," according to the Broncos trainer.
Marshall's arm was in a sling until late June and he later admitted he played the entire 2008 season with numbness in his right hand.
There were also problems in the 2007 offseason. A groin strain caused him to miss Broncos minicamps in May and June, and a pulled quadriceps muscle suffered on July 10 caused him to miss nearly the entire training camp.
So, this makes four straight off-seasons that Marshall has had some sort of injury problem that has caused him to miss workouts. And that doesn't even count the slight tear in his knee he suffered as a rookie during the 2006 preseason.
Does this make him a diva or just unfortunate?

|Director of Track & Field / Head Coach
|20 Years
Coach Kraft's Full Bio (pdf)
The 2012-13 season will mark the 17th year Greg Kraft has served as the Director of Track & Field at Arizona State University, a tenure in which the Sun Devils have risen to the ranks of the nation's elite all-around programs with four national titles in track & field and 12 total Top 4 finishes at NCAA Championship events (including cross country). In fact, those trophy finishes account for 12 of the 19 Top 4 showings the program has had in its history.
After taking over the program in 1996, the second-longest tenured coach in ASU track & field history (Baldy Castillo led the way for 26 seasons) has built a program that consistently attracts the top talent in the nation to Tempe that challenges for national titles, conference gold and high academic achievements. A four-time USTFCCCA National Coach of the Year and three-time Pac-12 Conference Coach of the Year, Kraft has become a highly decorated coach that continually works with some of the highest decorated student-athletes. Kraft has led his teams to four NCAA titles, including the 2007 women's indoor and outdoor crowns and the 2008 men's and women's indoor titles, and has done so with some of the top student-athletes in the nation.
In recent years, the likes of seven-time NCAA champion Jacquelyn Johnson (a Honda Award finalist) and six-time NCAA champion Ryan Whiting (a Bowerman Award finalist) have been a part of Kraft's program, leading the way in competition and establishing a tradition that continues to grow. Since the 2004-05 academic year, the Sun Devils have won four NCAA titles, three Pac-10 crowns and placed in the Top 4 nationally 12 times, including twice in cross country.
In 2012, The ASU men's team bounced back from not scoring a point at at the 2011 NCAA Indoor Championships to scoring 31 at the 2012 NCAA Championships to take fourth overall, marking the fourth top-ten finish in the past five years for the Sun Devil and was the second trophy-earning finish in that time frame. Jordan Clarke (shot put) and Mason McHenry (800m) each won NCAA titles in their respective events, the first time each had done so during an indoor season and the first overall championship for McHenry while Kraft was tabbed the MPSF Conference Men's Coach of the Year and earned USTFCCCA West Region Men's Coach of the Year honors as well. Chris Benard - who trained directly under Kraft - was named the USTFCCCA West Region Field Athlete of the Year. The ASU men scored 131.5 points at the MPSF Championships and posted a 50-point margin of victory - both the highest tallies in the last decade of men's MPSF competition.
Outdoors, the men's team finished 16th at the NCAA Outdoor Championships with 18 points and second at the 2012 Pac-12 Championships with 116.50 points. Clarke won his third consecutive NCAA shot put title and defended his 2011 outdoor crown with a new personal best throw of 20.40m (66-111.25) and defeated his competition by over three feet and gave Arizona State its fourth consecutive NCAA shot put title (Ryan Whiting won in 2009 and 2010) and between Whiting and Clarke, the program has now won eight of the last 10 NCAA shot put competitions between the indoor and outdoor campaigns.
For the women in 2012,Anna Jelmini earned her second consecutive indoor All-America honor in the shot put with her fifth-place finish and a throw of 17.15m (56-03.25) and followed thatwith a second place finish in the discus at the outdoor championships. Under Kraft's tutelage,Keia Pinnick finished fifth in the heptathlon and Christabel Nettey eighth in long jump while Constance Ezugha earned second-team All-America honors in the long jump.
Success was once again found during the 2011 season as Clarke added to the growing list of Sun Devil national champions as he captured the outdoor shot put title, keeping the event win in Tempe for the third year in a row. His program also continued to show improvement in the classroom as 25 individuals earned academic honors from the Pac-10 while Jamie Sandys (second team) and Ben Engelhardt (third team) were both named Academic All-Americans.
The 2010 season was no different as the talented Sun Devil men finished fourth at the NCAA Outdoor Championships on the strength of two titles won by Whiting and a runner-up finish in the 400m dash by Donald Sanford. Whiting, who finished three centimeters shy of equaling the collegiate record in the shot put, captured his fifth national crown in the event and added a discus title to his mantle after his three-peat indoors in the shot put. The men had three Top 8 finishers in the shot put and also earned All-America honors in the 4x400m relay. On the women's side, Jasmine Chaney was one of only four women nationally to qualify to the NCAA meet in both hurdle events and eventually finished fifth overall in the 400m hurdles to earn All-America honors.
Academically, the men were well represented in 2010 again as Whiting was named the USTFCCCA Indoor and Outdoor Scholar-Athlete of the Year (field events) while the men's team earned the USTFCCCA Outdoor Track & Field Scholar Team of the Year honor. Eight individual men and five women earned national academic honors from the Association as well.
In 2009, Whiting won a pair of national titles in the shot put, Jason Lewis captured the indoor weight throw and Sarah Stevens earned five All-America honors to help the women to a pair of Top 5 finishes as a team. All three also were selected ESPN The Magazine Academic All-Americans. While those three found success in the field events, Sun Devils like Charonda Williams, Jasmine Chaney and Brandon Bethke also were highly successful on the track to continue Kraft's tradition of balance in the program across the board.
During his time in Tempe, the Sun Devils have won four national team titles, 27 individual national titles and earned 224 All-America honors, including 181 in individual track & field events, 27 in relays and 16 in cross country. On the conference level, Kraft's Sun Devils have won three Pac-12 and three MPSF team titles (two women's, one men's) and collected 135 total conference crowns, including 71 individual Pac-12 titles and 16 relay wins outdoors while adding 57 MPSF individual titles and 11 in the relays.
Some of the more successful Sun Devils in program history have become multiple champions under Kraft, including men's champions Aaron Aguayo, the only four-time steeplechase champion in conference history; Marcus Brunson (100m and 200m champion in the same season) and a pair of two-time long jump champions in Dwight Phillips and Matt Turner. On the women's side, Tiffany Greer is the only three-time long jump champion; Charonda Williams is the only woman to sweep the 100m and 200m in back-to-back years; and distance stalwarts Lisa Aguilera (steeplechase) and Kelly MacDonald (5,000m) both won twice at the Pac-10 meet.
Away from Tempe, several of his athletes have traded in their maroon and gold and put on their nation's colors in international competition. Some of those Team USA members include 2004 Olympic Gold Medalist Phillips (long jump) and 2008 Beijing Olympians Jacquelyn Johnson (heptathlon, USA), Trevell Quinley (long jump, USA) and Joel Phillip (400m, Grenada). Johnson and Quinley both were U.S. Trials Champions before heading to the Summer Games.
The academic side of the student-athlete also has found great success under Kraft. As a team, the his women have twice been named the USTFCCCA All-Academic Team of the Year for track & field while continually placing multiple individuals on several academic teams. Lewis was named the USTFCCCA Men's Division Indoor Field Scholar-Athlete of the Year in 2009, marking the fifth national honor the program has received. Sun Devils have been selected Academic All-Americans by CoSIDA a total of 21 times under Kraft while there have been 107 honors as part of the National All-Academic selections made by the USTFCCCA. In the Pac-12, 140 individuals have earned first or second team honors in track & field while 68 have been selected to the same teams in cross country.
During the 2009 season, the Sun Devils again were successful on the national stage as both teams were fifth indoors while the women were third outdoors and the men eighth outdoors. Those finishes marked the 10th time the women have earned a trophy (Top 4 nationally) under Kraft since the 2005 cross country season, the eighth Top 10 finish in a row for the women and the fourth in a row for the men. With high team finishes come strong individual showings and that was certainly the case as three national titles were won, including Whiting in the indoor and outdoor shot put and Lewis in the indoor weight throw. In all, Lewis led the way for the men as a four-time All-American in 2009 (indoor shot put, indoor weight throw, outdoor discus, outdoor hammer) while Stevens (indoor shot put and weight and outdoor shot put, hammer and discus) and Williams (indoor 60m, 200m, 4x400m and outdoor 100m, 200m and 4x100m) led the way for the women.
The 2007 and 2008 seasons were perhaps the most `golden' times in Kraft's tenure so far as his women won three national titles and the men one, including a sweep of both crowns at the 2008 indoor meet. In 2008, Johnson won the sixth and seventh national titles of her career, including her third indoor pentathlon with a collegiate record score and her fourth outdoor heptathlon title, while Kyle Alcorn captured a pair of titles, including the indoor 3,000m run and the outdoor 3,000m steeplechase. Whiting also set the collegiate indoor shot put mark while winning his first national crown. The women also nearly swept the team titles for a second year in a row, falling just short of LSU in the outdoor meet to snap a three-title streak (2007 indoor, 2007 outdoor, 2008 indoor). The women also added their third-consecutive Pac-10 title and an MPSF crown.
The 2007 season was certainly one for the record books as well as four women combined to win five individual national titles to carry the Sun Devils to both the 2007 NCAA Indoor and 2007 NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships, the first national crowns in program history for the women. Kraft's women coupled that success with a pair of conference titles, winning the indoor MPSF and outdoor Pac-10 Championships, while also winning the NCAA West Region for the first time. The women's Pac-10 title was their second in a row and it was almost a sweep as the men fell three points shy of their first crown since 1981.
Individually, Johnson defended her national titles in the indoor pentathlon and outdoor heptathlon while the shot put was swept by Sun Devils with Stevens and Pressley winning the indoor and outdoor crowns, respectively. Kubishta won the outdoor pole vault, giving ASU it's first title in the event since 1994, when Olympic champion Hysong took gold. All-told, 10 different women combined to secure 18 All-America honors in 2007, including three by senior Amy Hastings, who tied Maicel Malone for the most all-time in ASU history with 10 (Stevens later broke that record with 15 in her career). That record has since been broke by Stevens, who ended her career in 2009 with 15 total honors. The men also turned in solid performances throughout the year, including Aguayo, who captured the 3,000m steeplechase at the Pac-10 Championships, becoming only the 11th athlete in Pac-10 history to win the same event four times. The third-place finisher at the national meet, Aguayo was one of five men that earned All-America honors in 2007, including Turner, the 2007 Pac-10 champion, in the indoor long jump and Whiting, a redshirt freshman, in the indoor and outdoor shot put.
Kraft was introduced as ASU's head coach July 28, 1996, after spending seven years guiding the track & field and cross country programs at the University of South Carolina where he was the 1996 SEC Coach of the Year. During Kraft's tenure at USC, he rebuilt the men's program into a league power and constructed the women's program from scratch. Kraft also headed up the men's program transition from the Metro Conference to the SEC.
The result of Kraft's work was both quick and remarkable. The Gamecock men's squad took just three years to climb from 22 points and a 10th-place finish to 74 points and a fourth-place finish at the 12-team conference meet. The three teams ahead of South Carolina were recent NCAA champions Arkansas, Tennessee and LSU.
On the women's side, the South Carolina climb was as impressive as it was quick. In four years, they went from a basic walk-on program that finished 10th in the SEC (13 points) to second (103) behind eventual national champion LSU. The women then went on to score 26 points at the NCAA Outdoors to tie UCLA for ninth. And the Gamecocks were to return 102 of their 103 conference points, plus all 26 NCAA points. What made the building of the women's program even more astounding was it had yet to be funded to the NCAA scholarship limits.
Kraft, who is now entering his 32nd year of Division I coaching and 23rd as a head coach, has long been associated with successful track and field and cross country programs. As an assistant, Kraft tutored 26 All-Americans and 36 individual conference champions while helping guide his schools to four conference titles and three NCAA Top 10 finishes. He started his coaching career in 1979 as a graduate assistant coach at his Alma mater, Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo. During Kraft's one-year stint at Cal Poly, the Mustangs won the NCAA Division II titles in both track and field and cross country. Kraft's next stop was a one-year stint as the field events coach at Indiana State.
In 1981, he moved on to a highly successful stint as an assistant at Kansas State University. During his four years at KSU, Kraft tutored 14 Big Eight champions and 16 NCAA All-Americans. One of the Wildcat pupils was 1996 Olympic triple jump champion Kenny Harrison. During his stint in Manhattan, KSU won a Big Eight championship in cross country and posted two Top 10 NCAA finishes in track, as well as four other Top 20 finishes.
Kraft then headed to the University of Virginia in 1985, where his initial responsibilities included all field events. His duties were later expanded to include the sprints and hurdles. During his four-year stint in Charlottesville, his student-athletes won 20 individual Atlantic Coast Conference titles and earned seven All-America honors while capturing three ACC team titles.
After 10 years as an assistant coach, Kraft was ready for a head coaching job and he was named South Carolina's head coach in 1989. At South Carolina, Kraft's cross country teams were twice named Academic All-America squads. Overall, 38 student-athletes were honored as Academic All-SEC selections and 11 student-athletes would earn All-America honors. Gamecock student-athletes won individual titles in the Metro Conference, SEC, NCAA Indoors, NCAA Outdoors, USA Indoors, USA Outdoors, the Olympic Festival, the Pan American Juniors and the 1996 USA Olympic Trials. He also mentored former ASU men's sprints/hurdles/relays coach Terry Winston, a two-time All-American and SEC runner-up in the hurdles for South Carolina.
Kraft is married to the former Maggie Keyes of Mill Valley, Calif. Maggie is a former collegiate record-setting miler who won AIAW, TAC and Millrose Games titles. She was also a member of the USA's first-ever World Championship team in 1983. The Krafts have two sons, Kyle, an engineering student in ASU's Barretts Honor College, and Cory, currently a junior on the ASU team (pole vault).

As part of Canyons' Spring Gruv festival, the first annual Utah Clicquot in the Snow event was held Sunday afternoon at the Farm. The widow's signature color yellow was everywhere–the awnings that shaded drinkers from the mountain sun (free signature sunglasses also helped with that), the ice buckets filled with snow and bottles of Veuve Clicquot. (Dummy bottles; I checked) free fingerless gloves handed out by the Veuve girls…
Generally regarded as one of the finest champagnes in the world, Veuve Clicquot's yellow label is not a wine that should be reserved for pre-designated special occasions. It is a wine to drink when you want the occasion to become special.
Like a gorgeous day of sunny spring skiing in the Wasatch. It just doesn't get any better than that, with a glass of perfect bubbly. Even though Canyons Beverage Director Sean Marron was wielding a broom instead of a corkscrew, he had a smile on his face.
Zeke Wray and the wrest of the Canyons' ace kitchen wranglers had concocted Veuve-worthy snacks: buttermilk fried chicken bites, bite-sized mushroom tarts and the pieces de resistance: champagne ice cream cones.
Zeke was madly stirring liquid nitrogen into a mixture of Veuve Clicquot and creme fraiche (the nitrogen freezes the alcohol and fixes the flavor), then he topped each scoop with blueberry "caviar" made with sphericized (another molecular cuisine trick) blueberry juice.
So welcome spring, Canyons style. I'm looking forward to the Clicquot arriving every spring along with the crocuses.

The Royal Canadian Legion launches their Poppy Campaign October 26. As it should, it sparks me to reflect on what remembrance day means to me and to our society.
As with many of us, I've had family members serve in our Canadian Military and some made the ultimate sacrifice. I even did a short stint in the army reserves myself so yes I have a bias towards supporting our military men and women both serving today and those that have passed beyond.
Let me say that I am a very proud Canadian. That's one of the reasons why people tell me I "ooze" pride when I talk about working for a locally owned company. I know I'm not the only one who thinks Canada is the best place on earth but why is it that we don't show that pride more, especially when it comes to our Military? (more…)

- 82% virgin wool 18% cotton
- Trim: 70% wool 30% rayon
- White Bison design
- Size: 64" X 80"
- Made in the U.S.A
- Dry clean only
The rare White Bison are born only once in every 10 million births and were considered to have sacred powers. In 1933, a while buffalo was born in the wild on Montana's Flathead Indian Reservation and was called "Big Medicine". The return of the White Buffalo is considered to be a fulfillment of an ancient prophecy that speaks of a new beginning of the peoples and mother earth. Tradition spoke of the coming of a herd of pure white buffalo. The seven bison on this blanket represent the seven directions: North, South, East, West, Above, Below, and Within. Together the directions symbolize wholeness for mankind and the earth. The prayer pipes signify mankind's communication with the creator and the four hands in the center circle of life represent the diverse peoples of the world and a new beginning. Tell this tale to your children while snuggled up next to the fire.
During the turn of the 20th Century the Pendleton Blanket legend was born at a woolen mill in Pendleton, Oregon that began producing striking wool blankets with vivid colors and authentic Native American Indian designs for the Umatilla and Cayuse Indian tribes in the Northwest. The combination of beauty, quality, durability and the superior warmth of the wool blankets has earned Pendleton a reputation for superb craftsmanship and quality which continues to be a hallmark of the Pendleton Blanket.

Let me tell you what to do first. Let me say - I'm gonna say this. I wanna say to all of y'all out there, young and old, young and old, always hold on to your dream. Hold on to your dreams. Thank you. I said back then, I said "One of these days I'm gonna play that guitar, and I'm gonna be famous," and that was when I was 12 years old. And when I started trying to play, it didn't look like I was going to do anything, but I want to say to you, never say it's too young or too old. I went from 12 to 72 years old before I got to make a record, and I went from 72 to 84 before I made that hit record, and got [unintelligible]. Yeah. And whatever you do, don't give up. Hold on to your dream, don't give up, 'cause you see what I done after all those years. Thank you, thank you."

GENERIC NAME: gold sodium thiomalate; aurothiomalate
BRAND NAME: Myochrysine
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Gold sodium thiomalate is a gold-containing chemical (salt) used in treating rheumatoid arthritis. Other gold salts available include injectable aurothioglucose (Solganal) and oral auranofin (Ridaura). It is not well understood exactly how gold salts work. In patients with inflammatory arthritis, such as adult and juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, gold salts decrease the inflammation of the joint lining and also prevent the inflammation from destroying the bone and cartilage surrounding the joint. Because they prevent destruction of joints (in contrast to antiinflammatory drugs that just treat symptoms and signs of arthritis but do not prevent the destruction) gold thiomalate is known as a disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD). Gold salts also may be referred to as second-line drugs because they are often considered when the arthritis persists in spite of the use of antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs and corticosteroids) which are not DMARDs. The term, second line, may be misleading, however, since anti-inflammatory drugs and DMARDs in general should be used together because of their different mechanisms of action and additive effects.

If you assume that eating problems are primarily the province of the age group most likely to join a Justin Bieber fan club, you're right—but what you may not know is that experts are reporting a surge of these illnesses among women several decades older. For instance, at the Renfrew Center, a group of 10 eating-disorder clinics nationwide, close to 20 percent of the women in both the outpatient and residential divisions are now part of the facility's Thirty-Something and Beyond program. Similarly, a few years ago the eating-disorders program at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill typically treated at most two midlife patients at a time; today one in two patients is a woman 35 or older, says director Cynthia Bulik, PhD.
Only a minority of midlife women eligible for treatment have issues that would meet the very precise definition of an eating disorder found in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), the psychiatric bible. Instead of anorexia or bulimia, such women are far more likely to suffer from what's called disordered eating—diet patterns that disrupt a person's life but are not as extreme, and usually not as dangerous, as diagnosed eating disorders. "These problems exist on a continuum," says Bulik. "There isn't a magic line that divides disordered eating from an eating disorder."
People who suffer from disordered eating are often obsessed with their weight, but there are exceptions. Those with the malady called orthorexia shun foods like meat, carbs, dairy, anything with preservatives or artificial flavors and often nonorganic fruits and vegetables, in the name of improving their health. "It starts out with good intentions and becomes a joyless obsession that takes over people's lives," says Martina Cartwright, PhD, RD, a biomedical and nutrition consultant in Scottsdale, Arizona. And then there are the excessively picky eaters, who have an aversion to all but a very limited number of foods. Many picky eaters feel strongly about consistency and texture in the foods they consume. "Some can't eat tomatoes because the seeds are a big discontinuity. Even a chicken-breast sandwich can raise alarms, because the thickness of the chicken varies," says Nancy Zucker, PhD, director of the Duke Center for Eating Disorders in Durham, North Carolina.
Most experts believe that disordered eating seldom shows up for the first time in midlife. Even if a 35- or 45-year-old woman reports she has never suffered from these problems, "if you take a really good history, you'll find they have had some kind of disordered eating in their past, like fad dieting or the need to meet a specific weight goal for ballet or sports," says Holly Grishkat, PhD, a psychologist with Renfrew's clinic in Radnor, Pennsylvania.
Midlife eating problems are increasing "exponentially," says Kathryn Zerbe, MD, director of the Oregon Psychoanalytic Institute in Portland and the author of Integrated Treatment of Eating Disorders: Beyond the Body Betrayed. The question is, Why now? "In our mothers' generation, there was acceptance that your body wasn't going to look the same at 50 as it did at 25," Zerbe says. "Today there's not. For some women, an obsession with a rigid diet is a way of trying to skirt the issue of aging and mortality." Kimberli McCallum, medical director of McCallum Place, a treatment center in St. Louis, agrees: "Eating disorders can be a maladaptive way to cling to what your body looked like 20 years ago." But disordered eating can also become a way of dealing with a midlife search for meaning, says Edward Tyson, MD, an Austin, Texas, physician who specializes in eating disorders. That's sometimes the case with orthorexia. "It can become almost like a religious cult," Tyson says. "Maybe you can find all of life's answers in the head of a lettuce that's brought down on the back of a yak from the Himalayas by a Buddhist monk."
Here, four women with disordered eating patterns tell their stories in their own words. Those using only first names prefer to remain anonymous.
The "Healthy" Eater
Brit, 40: St.Louis; associate professor of philosophy and psychology
I started seeing a psychologist in the fall of 2009 when my marriage was breaking up. I was experiencing anxiety and panic attacks. One day the heart palpitations were so intense, I went to the emergency room because I thought I was having a heart attack.
I wasn't, of course, but I was losing weight, and a couple of months into my therapy, the psychologist asked about my eating habits. I described my meals—a handful of cranberries for breakfast and typically nothing else until about 9 pm, when I'd have a dinner of beans and raw vegetables—and told her I've always been focused on eating only very healthy food. She said, "I think you have an eating disorder," and categorized it as orthorexia, a term I'd never heard before.
I think my therapist was struck not only by what I was eating but also by the amount of time I devote to thinking and reading about food. As a researcher—my area is perception—I have access to academic libraries, and I spend about four hours a day reading the latest studies on disease-preventing foods and the benefits of, say, extreme calorie-restricted diets. I shape my food intake to this research. Right now I'm eating about 1,200 calories a day, keeping protein very low and leaving vegetables and even garlic uncooked, because sometimes you get more vitamins if you eat them raw. I also adjust the kinds of spices and chile peppers I use according to the newest studies saying which have the most antioxidants.
My eating habits weren't the biggest problem in my marriage, but they did cause friction. I'd spend most of the day reading studies about food, tracking down healthy ingredients at specialty shops, making my own spice mix from whole spices and finally putting it all together. My husband is a very good cook, but I'd watch him and say, "You can't use that much oil" or "Don't use coconut milk." I'll admit that I still preach at people sometimes. Recently I was at a luncheon with about 20 colleagues where the food was served family style. I wouldn't pass the meat platters to anyone, and if someone placed a meat dish next to me, I'd say, "Could you remove that thing?"
I don't live a very social life, and that has a lot to do with food. I don't have people over to my house because they wouldn't appreciate the food that I cook, and there's no way I'm cooking food with ingredients I wouldn't eat. And it would be nice to date more, but I turn down a lot of invitations. One guy invited me to a lunch at a neighboring university, but I knew the food would be premade. That would be an uncomfortable situation for me, so I said no.
I've come to recognize that my eating habits are a compulsive way of dealing with anxiety. There are a lot of things I can't control, but what I eat is something I can control. Plus, when you are on a restricted-calorie diet, you're slightly hungry all the time, and my brain associates that with pleasure. Feeling hungry feels better than experiencing anxiety, anger or depression.
I enjoy eating healthy food, but I'd like to be able to make more exceptions to my diet. It would be nice to eat fish now and then, especially something healthy like salmon, and cheese on occasion. I'd like to be able to go to someone's home for dinner and eat a plate of pasta, even if it's not whole wheat. But mostly I want to find a more direct way to deal with the issues that are causing my anxiety; then everything else will take care of itself.
The Finicky Eater
Heather Hill, 40: Raleigh, North Carolina; website developer
I've been a picky eater from the time I was weaned. At 40, I still eat the way a six-year-old does, excluding everything that doesn't fit the narrow spectrum of what I like. For me, that's french fries, bagels, macaroni and cheese, pasta with butter or marinara sauce, vegetarian pizza, corn, broccoli, apples and bananas. That's it.
I've always thought my eating habits were weird and shameful. My mother was racked with guilt and felt it was all her fault. But I never thought I could change, until a few months ago. While doing some Web research to help my daughter—at five, she's an even pickier eater than I am—I stumbled on an online support group for adult picky eaters (pickyeatingadults.com).
To say that this community has changed my life is an understatement. The support group has more than 1,000 members, and I couldn't believe there were all these other people who have the same food issues I do. I cried when I read the postings. Now I'm working with a therapist at the Duke Center for Eating Disorders. I don't know if I'll ever be healed, but I already feel more accepted and normal.
When I was a kid, being a picky eater got me a lot of extra attention from my parents, my teachers and the kids at school. It was almost cute: "Oh, Heather doesn't eat this or that." It set me apart. In high school, too. I was a cheerleader, and on the way back from football games the bus would stop at McDonald's. The football players loved me because they got to fight over who I'd pass my Big Mac along to; I'd take their fries in return.
In my twenties, I started to become self-conscious. When I was dating someone new, I'd just say I was a vegetarian instead of explaining how limited my diet really was. Being pregnant with each of my three kids was very difficult. I really wanted to eat healthy and increase my protein, but I just couldn't stomach eggs, chicken or even tofu. That was very frustrating for my husband, but it's just the way my brain works. If I take a bite of something that's not on my list of foods, an alarm goes off in my head—"Woo! Woo! Woo! Alert: There's something foreign and inedible in your mouth"—and I have to get rid of it. That can happen even with the foods I love. If there's something unusual about the texture of a french fry—say, it was made with a potato that was bruised, so it's softer in some spots—that's enough to make me feel as if I'm going to throw up.
Recently my daughter had a playdate with some other girls, and the mom made lunch for the mothers. She handed me a plate with salmon, rice and some kind of vegetable—nothing that I would eat—so I said I was fasting because I was having a medical procedure the next day. It was easier than watching her go through her cupboards to find foods I'd accept, only to have me say no to everything anyway.
In a perfect world, I would like to eat like a normal person. But realistically, I don't see that happening, and I don't really want to put myself through the stress of trying to like new foods and failing at it. What's more important to me is having an answer to what this is all about.
The Doughnut Junkie
Barbara, 47:, Charlotte, North Carolina; interior designer
I grew up in a very affluent New Jersey family in which appearance was the most important thing. I wore a size 10 in high school, so I wasn't obese, but my family berated me terribly about being fat. My brothers called me "whale" and "tub of lard," and that was accepted by my parents. One brother made me drink four cups of tomato juice with apple-cider vinegar every day. He was a wrestler, and that was what he used to melt fat off his body. It didn't work for me.
We had a family dinner every night at 6, and I wasn't allowed any starches or dessert, only a little piece of meat and some salad. Of course, my parents said they were doing this for my own good. My life, they'd say, would be so much better if I were thin.
I got my driver's license when I was 16, and that's when my bingeing started. I'd drive to Dunkin' Donuts, buy a dozen and eat them right there in the car. Then I went away to college, and I stopped bingeing cold turkey. Away from the pressures of my family, I didn't feel the urge to stuff myself.
I didn't binge again for a decade. Then, at 28, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I went through a lumpectomy, radiation and chemotherapy, and my weight went from 140 to 125. When the treatment ended, I started putting weight back on, and my mom said to me, "Don't you wish you could stay on that chemo forever? You sure did look good." That triggered it. I went back to eating a dozen doughnuts in half an hour. Only the first one or two taste good, but once I start, I have to finish them all. Afterward I feel as if my body is going to explode, as if I have been drugged. I am numb to any emotion.
By then I was married with two daughters, and my husband discovered what I was doing. The shame of being caught was enough to make me stop, and I didn't binge again for 15 years, even through my divorce. But this past year has been difficult: I lost a brother to cancer, my mother has been bedridden for months with a broken hip, and my business has been hit hard by the recession. Three months ago, I was with friends who wanted to stop for breakfast at Dunkin' Donuts. I didn't have the guts to say, "No, I can't go in that place." We went in, and I just ordered an egg sandwich, but the next morning at 7:30 I was back and bingeing again.
Now I'm bingeing two or three times a week. When I feel the urge, I find myself driving to the doughnut shop, even though I realize I will end up in physical pain and filled with self-disgust. I wish I could keep my car from going there, but I don't have the ability to stop myself. It's the definition of insanity.
My weight is up to 200 pounds, and I'm just waiting to hit rock bottom so I can stop bingeing again. That's as much of a plan as I have right now.
The Dieting Champion
Rania Atalla, 44: Amman, Jordan and Washington, D.C.; writer
Five years ago, when I was working as the chief of staff to Queen Rania of Jordan, I found myself in Greece at a state luncheon for the queen and her husband, King Abdullah. I thought no one was noticing me as I moved my food around my plate, course after course. But when dessert was served, the chef came out, leaned over and whispered, "Madam, is everything all right with the food?" I wanted the earth to open up and swallow me.
By this time, it had been well over a decade since I'd actually eaten lunch. When I was invited to a luncheon, my day would be ruined; the world would become a totally dark place. So I'd either take notes throughout the meal or play with my food to hide the fact that I wasn't eating. Obviously, it didn't always work.
I'd held a series of fast-paced jobs in Washington and then in Jordan, and I'd become accustomed to running on adrenaline rather than food. Stopping to eat would just slow me down, so I often wouldn't eat anything all day until I got home at 10 or 11 at night. I also had a list of prohibited foods that got longer and longer; I eliminated all carbohydrates, dairy and sugar in coffee. There's a physiological and psychological high created by restricting food intake—a constant underlying buzz and a feeling of power that I enjoyed.
I became so compulsive about exercise, meanwhile, that after a 14-hour flight from Jordan to Washington, I'd go straight to the gym because I had missed that day's workout. On weekends, I'd turn down invitations if I thought they'd interfere with my spending up to three hours at the gym. Excessive exercise was my form of purging, but as I entered my forties, I was having to work out longer and harder to keep my weight low, and I was developing sports injuries such as tendinitis in the back of my knee and a strained hamstring. Then, at my annual checkup last year, a bone-density test showed that I had osteopenia, bone loss that can lead to osteoporosis. I learned later that this condition is often caused by eating disorders, because your body is not getting enough vitamins and minerals.
That was a wake-up call. I started seeing a therapist who specializes in eating issues. I recognized that while I don't meet all the criteria for anorexia—I'm not missing periods, for one thing—my disordered eating was ruling my life. I also came to see that my unhealthy relationship with food was just a symptom of my pursuit of perfection in all areas of my life. I hadn't earned the nickname "The Bulldozer" from my colleagues for nothing. I thought if I worked hard enough, I could produce the perfect report, the perfect body, the perfect me.
Today I consider myself someone in recovery who's on the road to normalizing her eating habits. I hadn't had breakfast in 20 years, but I'm starting to have Ensure and a bit of oatmeal in the morning. I still find it difficult to order in a restaurant, and I have bread and low-fat cheese for lunch because a cooked meal at midday triggers self-loathing. I've also been taking at least one day off from working out every week. I'm trying to learn to be more compassionate toward my body, and I think I have crossed a threshold.

By Mawuse Ziegbe
Recently, I experienced one of the truly crappy things about living in New York: getting your bike stolen. My Schwinn still had that new bike smell when it was jacked on Bedford Ave. What's different for me is that it was my first bike since I was 11 (why I never learned to ride is a long, stupid story). Most of you already know the sting of losing your first set of wheels and the accompanying playground anguish and can handle it with aplomb. Not me, however. For the first few days, I would narrow my eyes at anyone on a blue cruiser. I imagined myself pummeling the thieving hoodlum and riding off into the sunset as a row of toothy schoolkids cheered me on. But really, was I going to bound into traffic, outrun a thief with robust pedal-pumping thigh muscles and reclaim my bike without further incident? Hell and no. But after trawling Craigslist and following dead leads on free bikes, I thought, this is America; why not just steal me another bike? Now I narrowed my eyes at poorly secured racers and suitably daffy owners who have wondered off for a latte. But again, how conspicuously nutty would I look yanking on locks while the owner fetches an espresso? And if I was successful, what happens when the owner sees me pedaling off and chucks the scalding coffee square at my back and I fall off writhing in the street. Then I'm not just a failed criminal, I'm a stupid, failed criminal. And really, I can't be a thief – I don't even have a mask!
But on a more growned-up note, Giant Step brought Gilles Peterson to Cielo which was wicked awesome. I never realized how amazing the sound at Cielo is! Gilles warmed up with some punchy Afrobeat and sped up the BPMs with some chunky deep house – including a sassy cover of Aretha Franklin's "Chain Of Fools." But when Gilles launched into his Latin Jazz set, it really sounded like a 12-piece band was crouched beneath the turntables. It was like if you just conquered an empire and trumpeters trailed you constantly with your own saucy theme music. Plus, the man must eat music encyclopedias because in an hour he hops between Afrobeat, disco and Latin jazz, easy as pie. And Gilles Peterson sets are also awesome because he's got some loyal diehards. I spent a couple songs chatting with a fellow who would pause the conversation to shriek at the DJ booth "Whoo!! This is what we paid our money for! DAMN!" Indeed.
I also caught Hercules and Love Affair at Irving Plaza and ain't they the bees knees! The rainbow-friendly NY collective released their self-titled debut this year which makes my heart flutter. It's unapologetically new wave, nu-disco, New York nightlife fun combined with the theater of ancient Greece. So, of course the show was one big ol' shameless dance par-tay! Doors opened at 9 and they didn't hit the stage until midnight but the voguers and 7-piece band turned it out. They played the late-night torch song, "You Belong" and "Athena" with come-hither coos. It's like if you took the words "hot damn!" and made them into a recording group.
And in other hot damn news, the kids were hotfooting it at Bobbito's turn at Giant Step's Hudson Hotel DJ series last week. Bobbito dropped a range of hits from Chrisette Michele to Paul Simon to Parliament. Dancers of the Week, Brian Polite, DanSir and Dashuan got all Saturday Night Fever with it, wiping the floor clean with their synchronized moves and b-boy swagger. When you've soaked your starchy button-up so much that everyone can see your chest hairs through your pocket, you don't need to mention how crazy the party was.

So the old forums are currently in maintenance mode. I just tried to log in, but it says that only staff members are allowed to. I just want to get to some old stuff I have saved in my inbox there. So is the maintenance mode thing forever? Who has the power to change it-- only Mewtwo?
I'm sincerely disappointed. This also means that I can't access the archives, either, but I'm mostly just grumpy about the old stuff in my inbox. It seems a bit unfair to me that we have no access whatsoever.

Volleyball Splits Final Day Of Bryant Invitational, Eyes Ivy Opener Friday
BOX SCORES: Princeton 3, UMass-Lowell 0 l Stony Brook 3, Princeton 1
Freshman Lauren Miller recorded 34 assists and the middle combination of Nicole Kincade and Brittany Ptak combined to record 14 kills without an error in a 3-0 victory over UMass-Lowell during the Bryant Invitational. The Tigers dropped the nightcap 3-1 to Stony Brook and will now look forward towards their Ivy League season.
Princeton ended a two-match losing streak with the UMass-Lowell win, a 25-10, 25-19, 25-16 victory. It carried that momentum into a 25-13 victory in the opening set against Stony Brook, but the Seawolves battled back with wins of 25-23, 25-18 and 25-21.
Sophomore Kendall Peterkin led Princeton against UMass-Lowell with 13 kills, while both Kincade and junior Sarah Hanna had eight kills apiece. Senior Chelsea Parker and sophomore Sarah Daschbach both had 13 digs for the Tigers.
In the Stony Brook match, Kincade had nine kills without an error and hit .450 for the match. She was named to the all-tournament team in her first matches back from injury.
Peterkin had a team-best 18 kills, while Miller had 32 assists and 13 digs. Daschbach led all Tigers with 17 digs, while Hanna added six kills.
Princeton will now open its 2013 Ivy League season Friday night when it hosts Penn in a 7 pm showdown at Dillon Gym. Last season, the two teams split a pair of 3-2 thrillers, with the road team coming away with a 15-13 win in the fifth set.

Description : T-Smart Group Controller Unit - The T-SMART CSU provides in-service monitoring of both ESF and SF (D4) networks for early detection of developing problems.

From MORE'S 2008 package on politicians who cheat. Why do these smart, successful men make moronic choices? Is sex addiction to blame?
When the novelist Charles Dudley Warner wrote that "politics makes strange bedfellows," he was not thinking about Monica or Ashley or Rielle. But given the lives of our twenty-first-century politicians, his nineteenth-century wise-crack seems more like prophecy than wit.
Why do these smart, successful men make moronic choices when it comes to sex? When the latest politician is caught and he awkwardly apologizes as his wife stands awkwardly next to him, we are mystified. Why do men who seem to have everything always want everything else? And why do their wives put up with them?
The answer may be as simple as it is unexplored. These men are in the grip of an addiction; they use other people as a substance as surely as alcoholics use whisky. All addictions start with pleasure and slowly progress until the addict is unable to think straight when it comes to the substance. Adultery is the drunk driving of sex addiction. "Because our sexuality is one of our most fundamental life processes, sexual compulsiveness is extremely threatening to all of us," writes Patrick Carnes, whose book Out of the Shadows first defined sex addiction in 1983.
Women marry addicts for many reasons: They think the men can be rescued, they are addicts themselves, or the addiction is weirdly familiar because a parent or relative abused alcohol, drugs or some other means to mitigate life's frictions. By the time addicts get into trouble, their families are already caught in a web of secrets and lies.
There's a little bit of an addict in all of us. Most of us have had the experience of eating or drinking something we had promised not to eat or drink. We may even have slept with someone we had decided not to sleep with. In a full-blown addict, this powerlessness takes over. I know from experience: In my drinking days, I rarely considered what effect my being impaired might have on my husband and children. As far as I was concerned, the next glass of wine was the solution, not the problem.
Sex addiction is particularly tricky because we are all so in love with love. When a friend is in love, we celebrate; when we are in love, we exult. Yet what we call falling in love is an addictive experience. Our obsession, our deliciously out-of-control behavior, and the way the world narrows down to just one person are all characteristics of addiction. Psychological studies show that lovers and drug addicts have almost identical brain chemistry; in both, a sort of hedonistic highway is lit up.
Is this what ails our politicians? Each case is different, but addiction as a possible cause is rarely mentioned. And by not mentioning it, we compound the tragedy. As addiction has become better understood, many effective treatments have been developed. But without diagnoses, there can be no remedy. Until we are willing to explore the possibility of sex addiction, we are doomed to ignorance, baffled and betrayed as we watch the smartest leaders of our generation destroy themselves and their families.

I have just downloaded iCommand 0.5 and, as a currently inexperienced Java user, have some questions regarding the installation notes.
1. In section 2 you refer to the Java SDK. I have gone to the Sun site looking for the file(s) to download and there seem to several choices.
One page http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp gives me the option of downloading versions (v10) with or without Java Beans or a version (v9) with Java EE, but there are also several others that I could choose from.
Another page http://java.sun.com/javaee/downloads/index.jsp gives me some other choices.
2. The RXTX site also has two choices depending on whether I want to use Sun's CommAPI, which I have no idea if I do or do not.
I am using Windows XP (Home edition) as my operating system.
I may have some further questions once I get into it but could you please point me in the right direction on the above queries.
Can I also suggest that the installation notes are amended to reflect the knowledge levels of the people who might be trying to use them.

My native language is Serbian, but from my early age I started to learn English. And now, when I am a programmer I read almost all stuff in English (stuff for college, books, internet stuff, movies, etc.). I have no trouble reading ordinary stuff (news, blogs, etc.), but when I read some professional literature or some for example poetic novels I occasionally stumble upon words that I do not understand and that I have to look in the dictionary for the meaning of them (kindle helps here to not break reading flow to much).
After that introduction, my question is : is it worth and would it be functional to invest time to learn speed reading for reading stuff in English in my example, or should I first work to improve my English and vocabulary?

Coached his *** off tonight. Great plays out of timeouts, great in-bounds plays, great use of time-outs, great substitutions.
Thank god for FRED HOIBERG
Out Selfed Self with a properly timed Technical
yeah, really subbed well, was ready to go in both halfs, greeat out of TO plays....great job from Freddy

This. Outside of that small initial run they had, we dominated the rest of the way. Self got completely out coached, and that doesn't happen very often.
I thought the most impressive part of his coaching job tonight was the way he moved on from getting T'd up and redirected that back on himself. Our guys responded perfectly by having amnesia over that BS 6 point play and storming right back.
'Any fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius-and a lot of courage-to move in the opposite direction.'
Use of Edozie was brilliant. Would've lost Ejim and/or Georges without him in there to eat up those minutes.
That play at the end of the first half was awesome, despite Georges missing it

And great use of the Technical too as it seemed to frighten the zebras into calling this game evenly after that point. I loved the sideline reporter's comment who eavesdropped on the timeout huddle. Fred said "Sorry guys, my fault, we are a better team when you play poised and I coach poised."
After [Saturday], and talking with Zeb [Noland] and the other players from all over the U.S. who decided to come here to Iowa State because of the coaches and the town and how it feels like home, it makes me wanna be a part of that right now, Chandler said. [It] makes me wanna be a Cyclone right now, because it feels like home and with this coaching staff and future for this team, who wouldn't wanna be a part of it?

Agree. Good to know we have that in our back pocket if we ever need a quick two with less than a second left. Amazing play.

This. The way he utilized Edozie was fantastic.
When Prepared, Fear No One.
Fred is a hell of a coach.
Time for a new contract. again.
any video of the T. haven't seen it yet
Are you a member?
...a punch to anyone during his 'tirade' would've been just fine by me.
I like the way Fred stays calm most of the time because it makes it that much more awesome when he gets fired up.

The veteran Inter captain was shocked to see his former team-mate join AC Milan in January, but is hoping to keep him from scoring in next week's derbyInter captain Javier Zanetti has admitted that he was surprised to see former team-mate Mario Balotelli join cross-city rivals AC Milan.
The 22-year-old completed a move back to Italy from Manchester City in January, and will go head to head with the veteran Argentine in next week's Derby della Madonnina.
"I didn't expect Balotelli to join Milan," the 39-year-old told reporters.
"He's a great player, but hopefully, we'll play a great defensive game against him and his team-mates."
The Italy international has scored four goals in his three appearances since joining the Rossoneri last month.
Milan and Inter kick off at 20:45CET on February 24.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by cher1 Adds a nice flavor to food. I used this when sauteing some eggplant and this sauce gave off a really nice flavor. August 10, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Liesbeth Not made in Germany as stated. Just bought 5 of these here. My whole family uses Maggi's for soups etc. We are dutch and this is a staple in cooking. I bought it at your site because the description says that it's made in Germany, not China. However, when my 5 bottles arrived, the bottles say "product of China". Will keep them because I don't know where else I can get the not made in China ones. September 14, 2013

Overall Experience
Dirty Pool
ByTeaching Through Travel
April 12, 2016
The pool had a white "film" on top of the water. My son entered the pool using the steps at the shallow end. I noticed that I could not see his legs or feet as he stood in the pool at the bottom of the steps. Between the mysterious white "film" covering the pool and the inability to see the bottom, I immediately made him exit the pool. As he was putting his shoes back on, I noticed 3 used band aids laying on the pool deck by the chair that I was planning to sit in. As we were leaving the pool I found 2 additional used band aids near the door.
I stopped by the front desk on our way back to our room and informed the manager. He stated that the pool is cleaned every day and he would send someone down right away to investigate. That all happened on day 1 of our 3 day reservation. Each day we stopped by the pool to see how the water looked and whether or not the band aids were cleaned up. Nothing changed for our entire stay and therefore I refused to allow my son to swim in the pool.

And could we not get into the discussion about Lupe needing to be on Jay Dee beats? Because he shouldn't.
I've been going through Blue Sky Black Death's catalog for awhile after I went back I listened to their Jean Grae/Velvet Underground mix (The Evil Jeanius). Always nice. Danger Mouse needs to go back to hip hop or Gnarls Barkley because everything he's done has either been potential squandered or fucking up good bands. Can't forget 9th Wonder either. Better than I gave him credit for during his Little Brother days.

Freshman Carcione Clinches Win for Men's Tennis at Michigan State
The Princeton men's tennis team defeated No. 40 Michigan State 4-3 Saturday afternoon in East Lansing, Mich., to conclude its three-match, season-opening trip to Michigan with a 2-1 record.
"I couldn't be more proud of our team effort today in getting a very good win against a strong Michigan state team," Princeton head coach Billy Pate said. "(Michigan State has) already registered two wins over SEC teams this year so we knew it would be a challenge. Most notably, it was a tough turnaround from last night's loss to (No. 20) Michigan. The surfaces are very different and our guys had to adjust to faster conditions today."
Princeton won the doubles point when Augie Bloom and Matt Siow beat Denis Bogatov and John Patrick Mullane at third doubles, following up another 8-7 at first doubles for 11th-ranked Zack McCourt and Matija Pecotic over Drew Lied and Aaron Pfister.
Michigan State won the first two singles matches to be decided, but Matija Pecotic and Augie Bloom helped Princeton retake the lead, 3-2, with wins at first and fourth singles, respectively. Drew Lied tied it up for Michigan State with a 6-4, 6-4 win at second singles over McCourt, but freshman Jonathan Carcione provided the clincher, winning a second-set tiebreak to beat Will Davis 6-2, 7-6. Carcione led 4-2 in the second set before Davis took the next three games. Carcione took the final two games to clinch the win.
"It wasn't the best of quality in some matches and we really had to grind out the doubles point," Pate said. "I'm also proud of Carcione for going 3-0 this weekend and getting the clinching point today. He's been an impressive competitor for a freshman. Augie also came through with a big win that was the key to swinging the momentum in our favor."
Princeton will have next weekend away from competition before taking part in the ECAC Championship the folowing weekend.

Letter from the BMA President - Success and Progress
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
"But the solutions advocated by this narrow group of environmentalists (keep bikes out!) are disproportionate to the challenge they have identified. Mountain bikes are not drilling rigs and trails are not well pads. Our access issues have little to do with the regional and global environmental problems that trouble both of our communities. Mountain bikers are a great partner in conservation efforts, but we fear that bridge has been burned in Boulder - at least temporarily."
"We know the unspoken truth - that OSMP staff were split on the issue of allowing bike access. High up on the OSMP totem pole the idea got shot down, but the flesh and blood of the organization has seen that a purely political decision was made. They understand now, better that even before, that this is not about impacts on the resource, this is not about user conflict - this is about maintaining the status quo - no bikes in the West TSA. To city staff that have been open minded, we offer our sincere thanks! We will continue to persuade citizens and government officials that the gap between the conservation and mountain bike communities is narrow."
The Boulder Mountain Bike Alliance president, Jason Vogel, spells it all out in his recent letter titled A HISTORY OF SUCCESS AND PROGRESS: LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT. In the letter Jason talks about the successful relationship and brand BMA has created with Boulder Openspace and other officials, the opposition they run into and why they keep on fighting what may appear to be the steepest hill to climb.
While the BMA has had some setbacks in the last few years with the failure to create the canal path from Gunbarrel to Lyons, no bikes in West TSA and failure to gain access to Aneome Hill, they have made a lot of progress and anyone who has lived here for 10+ years should agree that options for mountain bikers have increased by a lot. Unlike road cyclist who are getting many of our shoulders and improved roads with little push back the BMA has to be there to make sure officials don't look past that group of cyclists. I hope BMA never gives up the fight and at the same time it saddens me that they have to fight so hard to do something so simple as getting access to public lands for a healthy and relatively environmentally low impact activity. It shouldn't be a struggle, something is wrong with our officials and the mindset of the value of mountain biking in our community. On the flip side road cyclists should be thanking transportation officials at how easy they have made it for us... but imagine how awesome it could be if we had Boulder Road Association (BRA) like BMA!

A long term view is required and only logical.
Recent votes have gone against mt bikes, and the recent election was problematic. However, it would be silly to say doing this is a failure or isn't working.
It just means we lost a race. We gave it all we had, and it wasn't enough. Ever lose a race before?
So we can either quit and never race again, or train smarter, better and harder in preparation for next time.
Depends on what kind of rider you are.

Tropical Cyclone Winston has moved far to the west of our shores and is a lot weaker than it was when it hit Fiji. However, we are still experiencing heavy rain throughout our islands, and should remain on high alert for flooding in low-lying areas.
The extent of destruction from Tropical Cyclone Winston, the Southern Hemisphere's strongest tropical storm on record and the worst-ever to hit Fiji, are being assessed as emergency crews reach hardest-hit outlying islands and other areas isolated by storm damage.
