Sometimes the story isn't as big a deal as the story about the story. How much different would United States history look if, the day after the Watergate break-in, President Nixon had said, "Campaigns make people do crazy things," instead of getting involved in the cover-up that led to his resignation?
While there is little doubt there is nothing in Scott McInnis' tax returns or John Hickenlooper's charitable contributions that rise to the level of Watergate, the principle is the same. The longer questions persist, the bigger the story gets.
On May 3, 1972, Sylvia Brockner wrote her first column for the Canyon Courier, about pine siskins, and readers flocked to her words about nature's rhythms and the beauty of Evergreen and its surroundings.
The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office took at least two people into custody Monday following an assault on a man late Sunday that led to an hours-long standoff at 28123 Tresine Drive in Evergreen.
A SWAT team responded to the home after the 54-year-old victim, who resides at that address, reported the assault at the mountain precinct about 10:45 p.m. The man fled the home after being beaten and began walking toward the police station.
When the top 4 feet of the "community tree" at Evergreen Lake snapped off in a windstorm a few years ago, Joan Spalding, owner of Spalding Trees, was distraught.
Now, with a little help from Mother Nature and a bucket truck, Spalding hopes to rectify the flaw, which mars the perfection befitting a tree that has its own bronze plaque carved into a rock.
The Craig family in Evergreen has seen evidence of something they've known for 18 years: This is a giving community.
When the Craigs learned in February that their 14-year-old daughter, Heather, had multiple sclerosis, they were devastated. But the teachers and students at Evergreen Middle School have embraced the family and are doing something to help.
The man accused of the Dec. 29 kidnapping and sexual assault of an Evergreen woman appeared in court on Monday, May 10, for a pretrial conference, which was then continued until June 7.
Joel M. Herrin of Kittredge pleaded not guilty to the charges April 26. Herrin, 41, is accused of going to the woman's house Dec. 29 for a housecleaning job and then assaulting her when she tried to leave for work. He has been held in the Jefferson County jail since the day of his arrest under $500,000 bond.
LAKEWOOD – The Evergreen Cougars girls lacrosse team had a tough end to the season. They went 0-9 in league play and lost their final nine games overall, including a 16-6 loss to Golden on May 8 at Trailblazer Stadium.
But head coach Alyssa Trudel and her team are focusing on the smaller victories that maybe aren't in the standings.
So what if the Cougars trailed 12-1 at the half to Golden. Evergreen didn't quit, and it came out strong in the second half, outscoring the Demons 5-4.
ARVADA – Evergreen High golfer Christina Spinzig shot a 9-over 81 on May 10, good enough for fifth place at the 4A Metro West girls golf tournament at West Woods Golf Course.
The finish qualified her for the 4A state tournament to be held at Cobble Creek Golf Course in Montrose on May 24-25.
Spinzig was also named MVP for the 4a Jeffco league.
Teammates Lauren Jagels and Aslinn Scott just missed the cut. Jages finished with a 95 and Scott a 96. The cutoff for state was 92.
Sophomore Jennifer Butler, in her first regional, shot a 122.
CONIFER -- Ethan Murphy swung his bat, and what could have been a snowball sailed through the fog in the seventh inning and landed on the other side of the fence in center field.
You had to be a little jealous of Murphy. Not only did the Evergreen junior catcher punctuate the Cougars' 17-7 victory May 6 over the rival Lobos, but he also got to run around the bases and stay warm.

The Roten president is eagerly anticipating the clash against the Spanish giants and believes the Catalans will not feel too confident heading into the semi-finalsBayern Munich president Uli Hoeness has acknowledged that the Bundesliga champions face a tough task to reach the Champions League final at the expense of Barcelona, but believes that the Blaugrana will not be happy to have been paired with the Bavarians either.
|Barcelona are 9/1 to beat Bayern Munich 2-0 on April 23 with Paddy Power
"Being paired with Barcelona is the most difficult thing that could happen us. We were hoping for an away game first and then the second leg at home, but that did not happen. It doesn't get any harder than Barcelona in this scenario," Hoeness told TZ.
"On the other hand, the more I think about it, the more I start seeing it as a huge challenge. If you want to win the Champions League, you will have to beat every opponent.
"I am convinced that Barca will not be happy to face us either."
The first leg at the Allianz Arena takes place on April 23.

When I work remotely and remote desktop from my WinXP machine to a Win7 box everything is fine. When I launch a virtual machine from within that Win7 box and use my mouse pointer it is invisible inside the VM. If I hover over the title bar area of the running VM my mouse pointer will turn into a hand and I can guess where my pointer is at from there but it doesnt change (into resize or a textbar for example).
Easy way to solve this weird behavior with text cursors in some editors.
Go to "Control Panel" -> "Mouse Properties" -> "Pointers" tab ->
Once there select the "Windows Black(system scheme)" profile.
You could try to disable hardware acceleration in Windows 7, if it works in the VM.
Ensure also that VMware Tools for Windows Guests are installed.
I too have had this problem, the only way I could find round it was to use remote desktop to remote into the virtual machine itself directly, either that or go to www.logmein.com and setup a free account and use that to login to the virtual machine directly. For some reason mouse pointers dont seem to roam very well between three locations.
One thing to try though, have you tried making your virtual machine full screen on the pc you are connecting to ?.
Another option is to use a lan enabled kvm switch, this is different to using remote desktop in that the signal for the mouse / keyboard is fed directly into the keyboard and mouse sockets on the pc at the other end instead of being virtualised by remote deskptop, so the mouse pointer would appear in the VM the same as it does when viewing it at the pc itself, they are not overly cheap though, although you can prob find a second hand one on ebay.
Make sure vmware tools app is installed on the VM. If that does not help, maybe try changing your remote control app and see if that helps.
Go into the advanced system properties and ensure that the "show shadows under mouse pointer" is selected.
As strange as it seems, solved my problem.
I encountered this issue this morning on a Windows 8.1 VM. I will say this is remote access through Citrix to the Machine. To resolve it I Opened Mouse Properties > Pointer Options and selected Display pointer trails setting the distance to short to minimize the effect of the trails.
Try disabling "Accelerate 3D graphics" option. (Virtual Machine Settings/Hardware/Display/3D Graphics).
Disabling this option should disable direct access to GPU, remote desktop emulates a graphics card instead of using real hardware. A bug on graphics drivers (real one) may be the reason for invisible mouse pointer which may not exist on emulated graphics card drivers. Updating drivers may also solve the problem.

$\mathbb Z[\sqrt{2},\sqrt{3}]$ is freely generated as a $\mathbb Z[\sqrt{2}]$-module (exercise). Free modules are flat. QED
I have a way of deciding this, although I don't like it very much.
The ring $\mathbb Z[\sqrt2]$ is a Dedekind domain — it's the ring of integers of $\mathbb Q(\sqrt2)$. A module over a Dedekind domain is flat if and only if it is torsion-free. Why? Well, flatness can be checked at each prime, each localization of a Dedekind domain at a prime is a PID, and the result is true for PIDs.

The debate over how to curb gun violence in the United States tends to fall along party lines. Liberal Democrats are portrayed as favoring more restrictive laws about who can have a firearm, while conservative Republicans are seen as trying to protect the right to bear arms guaranteed by the Second Amendment. For the most part, Seattle is a "blue" city, and accordingly, 78.8 percent of Seattle citizens believe there should be more restrictive gun laws. So, how would it make sense for some of the U.S.'s worst shootings to have happened here?
One happened at a local coffee shop, Cafe Racer, on May 30, 2012. Another happened at Seattle Pacific University on June 5. And then there are the ones that do not get publicized, the ones that happen at 2 a.m. with no witnesses, like one that happened on Jan. 22 in the Central District. The question now is, how can Seattleites use these liberal views make a difference? They do not grant immunity to what is publicized nationally as an epidemic of violence.
For now, it appears that guns have cemented a place in American society, which does not necessarily have to be a bad thing. The problem is that guns also appear to be the weapon of choice for those who desire to cause harm to many people at once. It's easy for them to do that with guns in their hands. So, then it becomes a choice about right and wrong, a choice made on an individual level, not a partisan one. No matter one's views about what gun laws should be, shootings are carried out by one person, or maybe a few people, at a time. And there are more individuals who need to learn gun responsibility than are easily recognizable. It's not about making sense, but about making a difference.

On October 12th, Tim Bradley fought Juan Manuel Marquez at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas. The belts were irrelevant. Most fight fans had no idea which sanctioning body strap (WBO welterweight) was on the line. This was a bout between two elite fighters, period. And it was particularly significant for Bradley.
"Beating Márquez will make me one of the top pound-for-pound fighters in the world," Tim said days before the fight. "I don't do this just to make money. The money is important, but I want to fight the best to be the best. That's what motivates me. After I beat Marquez, there's no way that people will be able to deny me what I'm due."
Bradley stands just under 5-feet-6-inches tall and wears size twelve shoes. "Big heart too, baby," he's quick to note. He's a volume puncher without knockout power (unbeaten but with only 12 KOs in 31 fights). Roy Jones calls him "a 147-pound Evander Holyfield without the punch."
Like most fighters, Bradley dreams big dreams. But he pushes himself harder than most to accomplish them.
"I can be stubborn at times," Tim says. "I never doubt myself. Doubt me; tell me I can't do something. I love it. I admire people who push themselves beyond what anyone thinks they can do. Diana Nyad; sixty-four years old, swimming in the ocean with sharks, jellyfish; keeps swimming for more than fifty hours. That's me. I'll go into the devil's mouth, dive into the deepest part of the ocean, do whatever I have to do to win."
Bradley knew that he'd have a hard road to travel against Marquez.
Mexican pride has taken a beating in the boxing ring lately. Earlier this year, Canelo Alvarez was whitewashed by Floyd Mayweather; Julio Cesar Chavez Jr embarrassed himself against Brian Vera; Alfredo Angulo quit against Erislandy Lara; and Rafael Marquez was stopped by Efrain Esquivias. In 2012, Erik Morales lost twice to Danny Garcia, and Jorge Arce was demolished by Nonito Donaire. Prior to that, Antonio Margarito was bludgeoned by Shane Mosley and Manny Pacquiao and out-finessed by Miguel Cotto. Marco Antonio Barrera disappeared from the spotlight after being terminated by Amir Khan four years ago.
That left Marquez, whose most recent outing was a one-punch highlight-reel knockout of Pacquiao last December.
"I've seen every one of his fights," Bradley (seen unloading on the Mexican in Chris Farina-Top Rank photo) said during a media conference call in early October. "I've always been a fan of Márquez.I always thought he was a great fighter and I still think he's a great fighter. He's one of the best counter-punchers in the game. People struggle when they fight him. He never ducked anybody.He has been in there with Mayweather. He fought Pacquiao four times. There's nothing he hasn't seen.Marquez isn't easy for anyone."
Two issues were troubling to Tim's fans where Bradley-Marquez was concerned. The first was PED testing.
In other sports, the great athletes are getting younger. In boxing, they're getting older. Age thirty-five used to be washed up and over-the-hill in the sweet science. Marquez is forty (ten years older than Bradley) and as formidable as he has ever been. Indeed, in recent years, Juan Manuel seems to have gotten bigger, faster, and stronger. Sort of like Barry Bonds.
Bradley is an awesome physical specimen. "I've got the six-pack, the back-pack, and the ninja turtle shell," Tim says. But he's within three pounds of the weight that he turned pro at nine years ago. And the fact that he has made a commitment to VADA testing (all of his VADA tests came back negative prior to Bradley-Marquez) entitles him the presumption that he's clean.
Marquez, by contrast, has elevated through six weight divisions during the course of his career. And after joining forces with conditioner Angel "Memo" Heredia (who previously admitted under oath to being a purveyor of performance enhancing drugs), Juan Manuel has come into the ring with a significantly more-muscular physique and added punching power.
Marquez refused to submit to VADA testing prior to fighting Bradley.
Also, in Bradley's most recent fight – a narrow decision win over Ruslan Provodnikov on March 16th – he was seriously concussed and suffered from slurred speech and dizziness for ten weeks afterward.
Most fighters don't talk about their vulnerabilities. Bradley does. In fact, he talked more openly about his concussion and its aftereffects than any active fighter in recent memory.
"One of the reasons I've been so open about this," Tim explained several days before Bradley-Marquez, "is so other fighters will get the help they need when they've been concussed. Every fighter knows that, when he enters the ring, he might not come out the same. But a lot of times, there are things you can do to get better. Testing, therapy. And you've got to do them."
Marquez was a 6-to-5 favorite. Bradley dismissed those numbers, saying, "The odds are about the last punch in Marquez's last fight. And then you look at my last fight, when I was concussed. But I was trying to prove something against Provodnikov that I shouldn't have tried to prove. And Pacquiao was beating Marquez until he got sloppy-overconfident. I'm fine now. Everything is back to normal. I am not worried about getting punched or can I take a punch."
Still, many of those who predicted a Bradley victory over Marquez did so with a caveat: "If Tim is okay."
Both fighters made the 147-pound limit with room to spare. Bradley weighed in at 146 pounds; Marquez at 144-1/2. An announced crowd of 13,011 was on hand when the main event began.
It's hard to outbox Marquez. But for much of the night, Bradley did it.
"Concentration will be very important in this fight," Tim had said earlier in the week. "Never taking a second off physically or mentally, but especially mentally."
Bradley stayed true to that creed, making adjustments throughout the night in a tactical fight fought at a high skill level with neither man able to establish control.
"The game plan was to move and keep moving," Tim said afterward. "I felt his power in the first round. He caught me with an uppercut that hurt . . . My speed and footwork were the key. I got in a rhythm early . . . You have to be careful when you fight him. He's really dangerous when he backs up. You follow him in and BOOM . . . He knocked Pacquiao out with that big right hand. I knew he'd be going for that . . . I had a good tight defense. I was blocking a lot of his shots and making him miss . . . He changed gears in the second half of the fight, kept making adjustments, started closing the gap. After a while, he started timing my jab and I said to myself, 'It's time to do something else' . . . A lot of times when we had big exchanges, I wanted to fight with him. But he was throwing heavy shots and I told myself, 'Stay disciplined; stay smart' . . . Marquez is a smart fighter and very dangerous."
It was a hard fight to score. According to CompuBox, neither fighter outlanded the other by more than six punches in any round. In six of the twelve rounds, the differential was two punches or less. There were only five rounds in which the judges were in agreement.
Glenn Feldman scored the bout 115-113 for Marquez. But he was overruled by Robert Hoyle (115-113) and Patricia Morse Jarman (116-112), each of whom gave the nod to Bradley.
Marquez and Nacho Beristain (his trainer) were notably ungracious at the post-fight press conference.
"The judges did it again," Juan Manuel said, alluding to his previous losses by decision to Pacquiao in Sin City. "To win in Las Vegas, I need to knock my opponent out."
"Bradley is a good fighter and he's also very lucky," Beristain added. "He's the only undefeated fighter with two losses [the other "loss" being a controversial decision victory over Pacquiao in 2012]."
But in truth, there's no judging controversy here. Bradley-Marquez was a close competitive fight that could have gone either way. Two of the three judges said that Bradley won. It's as simple as that.
One might also note that Juan Manuel's face was bruised and swollen after the fight, particularly around his left eye, while Bradley was largely unmarked.
How good is Bradley?
Tim doesn't talk constantly about the "0" on his record. But it's there. After decisioning Marquez, he had a 31-and-0 record. In addition to beating Juan Manuel, he has victories over Manny Pacquiao, Devon Alexander, Lamont Peterson, Junior Witter, Ruslan Provodnikov, Luis Abregu, Joel Casamayor, and Nate Campbell to his credit.
Floyd Mayweather, at the same age, had a 36-and-0 record with wins over Genaro Hernandez, Diego Corrales, Jose Luis Castillo, Arturo Gatti, Zab Judah, Carlos Baldomir, Angel Manfredy, and Jesus Chavez.
"Fighting Mayweather is a huge goal for me," Bradley says. "I'm not Manny Pacquiao. I'm not Juan Manuel Marquez. I'm not Floyd Mayweather. But you can put my name in the conversation. I'm Tim Bradley and I know how to fight. If you think you can beat me, come on and try."
Tim Bradley has arrived. Enjoy the show.

First! It never stops! Pro pugilists always exaggerate their height. Bradley is a C-hair below 5-foot-5 from the top of his size-nine cranium to the bottom of his size-13 doggs. Don't try to sneak a size 12 in. Hehehe! He has worn a size 12 since he was 12-years old.
He won't get any R-E-S-P-E-C-T until he eat so humble pie. And chillax on LIE after another BIG LIE!
I missed his arrival. He lost to Da Manny by gift. He lost to the Siberian Rocky by lift. And he won over Hulkquez by rift. Holla!
Bradley had always had my respect for being a hard case in the ring. I thought he did enough to beat Provodnikov but would not be upset if the decision went the other way.
Bradley is very much influenced by his dad who reminds me of a slightly more civil version of Angel Garcia... I liked him better as the humble hard working bible thumper... Now he can still fight..... but I liked him better before he suddenly adopted his father's "attitude". But I wont try to tell him how to live his life... He seems awfully successful to me. At least financially so.
i respect anyone stepping through those ropes, as long as they are entering that ring without illegal PEDS.
however, it is hard to respect Bradley who goes on these rants about how good he is when he got two gift decisions where most see he lost.
be humble tim and the fans will join you, keep talking and babbling about with ridiculous arrogance and no one will be able to stand you.
its like everytime we turn around tim is still complimenting himself, enough is enough..
Radam G says,
Still hurt over Pacquioa getting beat to bad guy. You need to becoame more of a fight fan and not a fighter fan then it wont bother you so much. Manny tried to fight in spots with Bradley while Bradley brought the fight to Manny all night long. Everyone seem to tell me that's not ho wit went but everytime I watch the Bradley/Pacquioa fight I see Bradley hands in motion bringing the fight to Pacquioa and it seems the Judges happened to see what I saw. In the First fight with Marquez and Pacquioa, Pacquioa got the three knock down and then gets a boxing lesson. That fight was called a draw, or course the judges didn't agree with me on that. I dont hate Pacquioa because he in my opinion recieved a gift, and I feel he received a gift in the third fight. I also no delusional about Pacquioa's record, I wish that is fights hadn't been a slew of catch weight fights so I would know if he would have beat those fighters at their best. Which I believe he could have, but Arum and Roach robs us of the opporturnity to see if he would win against fighter at their very best.
Wow! Look like I've caught another _____ ____ stalker, who doesn't know syet about me or boxing. What a make-believe wuzzy. Nuff said! Holla!
Wow! Look like I've caught another _____ ____ stalker, who doesn't know syet about me or boxing. What a make-believe wuzzy. Nuff said! Holla!
Bradley is a kayo waiting to happen. He fought a shot, top-heavy Hulkquez. And was suppose to win. As Uncle Roger M says: "Most people don't syet 'bout boksin!' Holla!
Wow! I checked my IP tracker. Hehehe! Urone2 is a long-time instigator. His syntax of the past is the exact same. And his same exact miss spelling of Da Manny's name sets all types of alarms. Ur nother knockout is a coming. These hate-filled _____ never get it. They keep coming from the cyber dead. Hehehe! And are thrown back to it. Holla!
Radam G,
sorry homie you give yourself to much credit, I'm not in anyway stalking just responding to your post. I see I must have touched a never, I guess I've never learned anything about boxing in the 40 years I've been a fan. But Bradley beat the same Marquez that served up sleeping pills to Pacquioa. Bradley will do his thing until he gets beat or retire which ever comes first, everyone want to bad mouth the guy because the Judges gave him the decision over Pacquioa. Me, just being a boxing fan do like seeing my favorite fighters cheated but I try to call it fairly and make up stuff. Like I checked my IP tracker, what a Joke. I guess that make for good effect.
I agree largely with BrownSugar & A-May, and find Tim's 'new' persona both off-putting and unconvincing -- like he's trying to project his inner Floyd Mayweather, and is a poor actor. I don't think he quite knew how to handle his scandalous Pacquiao victory-gift, and unfortunately sought to convince himself that it was earned. I realize it would be hard to just openly admit he had no business being the winner, but according to others at first he was willing to do just that (he knew he had lost). Then he 'regrouped' his ego and took the tack that he was the big, bad champion. Everyone saw through this. Now it's worse than ever. Poor guy. He's a good fighter, too (just not "elite").
The only √oke is a cyber clown with an IQ the size of his small co√ones. The dude is such a dimwit and a piece of ____ that he can see that every regular reader in this Universe agree that Bradley lost to Da Manny.
Wow! I guess the _____ is broke and manic again. You keep coming back with some lame pseudonyms, "homie!" Homie is so out of date. You are such a refugee of times long gone. Your arse have grown old, but not up. Too much of a white space problem up inside your cranium, no doubt! Hehehe! And not a wrinkle in your pea brain. √ust your mug and fat arse.
Out of all the people here who have clearly posted disgust with Bradley's arrogance and tude, you come after me -- COWARD! Can't tolerate out-of-group people, HUM? Get your grill fix, cyberspace commando. And clean up your flophouse, nutcase! Holla!
I respect Bradley, his antics don't really bother me. Maybe he's trying to emulate Floyd maybe not, either way he's getting people to pay to see him lose. His cockiness pales in comparison to Broner whom I can't stand, Broner takes it to a whole new inappropriate level. I had Bradley beating the Russian and close fight with Manny. However after the Provonikov fight he showed a lot of guts and cojones
Bradley ran so much he injured both his ankles and feet...
he ran himself to a wheel chair post fight conference.
come on now, bradley didnt take the fight to pac at all
Good point Amayseng, you're right my mistake. But in the middle rounds he did pile up the points against Pac and Provindkov.
I guess we'll have to wait and see if people will be willing to pay for Bradley as time goes by
dont get me wrong CC, i do like bradley, i was a fan of his in the ring until he started acting a fool out of it.
he remains a good family man and thats good to see.
he just doesnt fit the proper personality for an arrogant guy like floyd does, so he has to find his own schtick not copy floyds.
Yeah I don't blame, seeing his quick transition in attitude from humble to cocky is a big turn off
I got high respect for Bradley and his effort. One of the toughest cats in all of boxing. Hell, maybe in any sport out there. Impressive will and determination. That's really his only fault is that maybe the judges are so impressed by all that... It's swaying rounds his way. Still, though, Cj Ross is a maniac judge. But that ain't Tim's fault.
The things said about magic is that once you know the optical illusion, away goes the obvious confusion.
Tim Bradley will be finally arriving. And he is going to get his arse KAYOED! Poor soul.
Again, he became the most used fighter in over a 100 years. He was used against Da Manny, the same as "White Hope" James Jeffries was used against "Unforgivable Blackness" Jack Johnson. The only different is that promoter Tex Rickard's didn't play racism robbery and told the the haters of that day in 1910 that: "It gonna be a fair fight. There will be no funny sh*t done to my [N-word.]"
Jack Johnson even bragged and talked noise how his had "the wrong complexion, but the right connections and the protection..."
I know that many of you thought that those bragging and boasting words originally came from the GOAT Ali. But NYET! As time goes by, other guns will bit off the old guns and ride it. GAME knows GAME! And will borrow the FAME.
Tex Rickard's "Call of the Wild" in-laws, outlaws, Cali killers, first-wave of the Italian Mobsters and crooked, corrupted Texas Rangers, who would do anything for a BIG-PAY bribe, gave Jack Johnson mad luv, hardcore protection and a long life for the time that he lived on this planet.
Now Tim Bradley, Da BobFather hasn't given him syet but opportunities and was not in on the greatest boxing robbery of this young century. Now Bradley has gotten too arrogance and big-headed for his own good instead of being thankful that he got a gift, a lift and rift.
He LOST nine to 10 rounds to Da Manny and got a gift. Two knockdowns -- one on his but and one onto the ropes -- were not count on Bradley against the Siberian Rocky, or Bradley would have lost that bout too, but he got a LIFT from those knockdowns not being counted. He caught a washed-up, shot Hulkquez. Thus Big Foot Bradley got a RIFT, because a shot zombie-bouncing Hulkquez could find a straight moving-back Bradley.
Any honest body in boxing know and saw CLEARLY that Hulkquez was getting his hurt-feet arse slaughtered against Da Manny.
Hulkquez took a darn BEATING. Two one-shot punches bailed him out. He won the battle, but lost the game war. See that bout added to Marquez's wear and tear.
A shot Marquez -- top heavy from "Fallen" Angel Heredia's chemicals-cheating syet -- FOUGHT Bradley, not the skilled, adroit-fighting Marquez of yesteryear.
Anybody with a pea brain of pugilism could see the zombie-like stutter stepping and shifting of Marquez. That is a clear sign of a fighter being SHOT!
Top-heavy Hulkquez could not find Bradley all night in that squared jungle, because skinny-legged, now-shot Marquez's brain is no longer connecting with his fast-twitch muscles of hands or legs. No amounts of roids and PEDs on planet earth can reestablish the connections and circuits between Marquez's body and brain.
No matter how many fights that anyone thinks that Marquez won against Da Manny, in the end Hulkquez/Marquez lost the war.
That easy, weak whuppin' that Bradley put on him just showed how damaged that Marquez was from the last bout with Da Manny.
Plainly and simply, a spade is a spade. But hatred causes people to hide in the shade.
Bradley didn't BEAT the Marquez of old. Not even close. Big CREDIT to Bradley! He beat a Hulkquez zombie, not an adroited Marquez.
And, YUP! Don't wait too long for the arrival of Bradley. That three-trick pony ain't gonna make it. A trickless one is a coming and going OUT in a nano sec -- KTFO!
Optical illusions are rife in pro boxing to blind eyes. Seeing ones know what is a coming.
That is my opinion. And I'm sticking with it like the BLING-BLING on Queen Elizabeth's royal blue diamond. Holla!
BTW, SouthPaul! Ross is GONE. And Ford has also been out of action. In other words, both judges who scored for Bradley against Da Manny have strangely taken leave. YUP! permanently. Thanks be to the boxing judging gods. Holla!
Hey, speaking of Marquez, look at this picture I found:
"If you repeat a lie long enough..."
Hey, speaking of Marquez, look at this picture I found:
"If you repeat a lie long enough..."
RG, nice info about Jack Johnson. I always wondered who stood behind him since he was so bold. Ali wondered that, too.
About Bradley, but I'm sorry to say, as long as he's with TR, it's going to be a while before he gets beat. Brandon Rios doesn't have enough for him.
I call it how I see it Manny didn't do enough work in my opinion to beat Bradley, I though Bradley would lose the fight but that did not happen. For Marquez and his Zombie legs he has those in Manny/Juan III, if you watched the fight. Then slow dramatically at the end of fight III. For Manny's fan to accept the defeat of their hero now they say the Marquez is roided up, not that Manny ran full speed into a right hand. Watch the punch again if you can and watch how Marquez had to step around after delivering that punch to get out of the way of Manny's full steam charge. I like how everyone say this in new found power, seemed like perfect timing to me. I believe Bradley attitude change is due to the fact that after the fight with Pacquioa he received hate mail for doing his job, get hate mail and death threats could do something to you. His attitude change isn't something all that bad he just now more speaks about being confident in his ability and wanting to prove that point. It seems to me as much as fight need fans to follow them fans can also be a terrible thing, especially some of these fighter fans.
@The Shadow, Team Bradley has already been thrown under the bus. Running-over time is nearby. To his fights, Bradley cannot draw a single fly. Holla!
Radam G,
all that stuff you talk don't matter he will still be champ until he's beaten, and you will still be.....................................
Wow! This latest slow-wit is a genius! Big Foot will definitely be an alphabet title-belt holder until he is kayoed, stripped or robbed. He is lucky that C.√. Ross was dumped before she got to his match with Hulkquez.
On the-down-low's underworld grapevine, it was already loud spittin' that she was going to vote against the Cali Cranium Crusher, the two-loss-undefeated-given-a-gift champion, who was expected by all those in da know to beat a shot Hulkquez, who's one-shot against Da Manny has been greatly exaggerated by Pinoy haters as a torrid beating, when it is the reverse. Da Manny was frying Hulkquez arse and got caught, PERIOD!
We will see how he is further exposed in 2014. The d@mn bus that he has been thrown under will run him over. And his title-belt gift will fade to black. Holla!
I am already tired of another Radam G hater.
RG how do you get so many of these hate groupes?!?
@A-Seng, I will give you my take and half the people in boxing take tomorrow. But idiots are cyberspace stalking me because of their ignorance of Filipino contrbutions to modern boxing and their deep hatred of Da Manny.
I gotta get to Da Manny Wildcard Boxing Gym of Mindanao. Holla!
This is great to have a debate on this sight you become a hater of someone, I see the sight posters are about trying to run off enyone who has a differnet opinion. I've seen enoughnow to know that these are not real boxing fans and it is terribly hard to find real one in the world we have today. You guys just effectively turned this into one big joke for me. Not only can you not handle a person who challeges your opinion, you have to resort to name calling and weak unfounded references to try and prove your point. I was trying to see how pointless this would really be and boy it was worse than I expected. I'll do all of you great boxing knowledge having people here a favor, I'll ban myself from this sight. This was one of the most worthless conversations I've ever been involved in. One last dig before I sign off this for good. Bradley won the fight against Pacquioa much like Pacquioa won the Thrid fight against Marquez. it was a closely contested fight that the judge rule in favor of Bradley. Then Marquez put Pacquioa to sleep and Bradley beat Marquez. Which leaves Bradley as the top dog amongst the group, say what you want bu that the way it is. These are the type of thing that happen when fans(fighter fans) post stupid stuff like a fighter can't be beat. The only fighters that couldn't be beat are the ones that quit before their number was up. So, you guy go find your next fighter and make him unbeatable then when he loses a close decision cry about how he was robbed. That the Mantality of a fighter fan, a true fight fan would not attack a boxer because when he was in a close fight he believed he won. For Marquez I don't think he's on roids, he's add wieght to his workout and it changed his body. Manny ran into a great right hand that took him out, That has happened to some of the best fighters in the world. Still fighter fans/alot of Pacquioa fan didn't believe it would happen and when it did the other guy was cheating. Now I'm COMPLETELY done with you guy and this forum, Radam G and amayseng you've made this forum a joke especially with the way you type Radam G just silly.

Why do I let life get in the way?
Wednesday, August 01, 2012
What a vicious cycle! I determine that I AM READY! This is it. I am going to log my food, exercise, stay on track and improve my health... and I do for a few days. Then I have a busy day or can't get to my computer for some other reason (excuse), so I don't log my food. Or I get distracted by a good book or get busy with housework and don't exercise... And then I realize I haven't been drinking all of the water I need to stay healthy and to feel good. Then I start craving junk food and don't exercise and drink less water and feel like crap... And then... I decide this is it. It is time and I AM READY! I am going to do it this time... And I start logging my food again, start drinking my water again, start making healthier choices again, and start trying to ease back into exercise again. AGAIN! And again and again and again!!! Aaaagggghhhhh!!!!!!
Ok, it IS time to stop the insanity. period. I can't keep doing this to my body. I can't keep doing this to my mind. I can't keep doing this to ME!!! If I don't start taking care of me... WHO WILL???? I am in generally good health... overweight and have some "numbers" that the doctors are keeping an eye on... if I don't bring them down or if they go up I could end up on medicine... So, it is time for me to fix me before a doctor says it's too late to do it without medicine.
Today is Wednesday, August 1, 2012. Today I am starting over... again, hopefully for the last time. I will never stop trying to improve my health, but I hope I don't let myself stop and then have to start over again. I have made myself a promise that for the entire month of August I will log all of my food and exercise at least 10 minutes every day. I know when I log my food I make better food choices. And even I can handle 10 minutes of exercise (even if I have to break it down into 2 - 5 minute sessions to start). I am going to make it a point to post blogs on my progress to keep myself accountable. (There's just something about putting something in print for others to read...) And I am going to keep going.
Wish me luck! I can do this... I CAN DO THIS!!!

The CCTV footage which was gathered by the National Bureau of Investigation from Forbeswood Condominium where the alleged mauling incident happened involving actor-TV host Vhong Navarro, Deniece Cornejo, Cedric Lee and his men is still one of the hottest topics online this morning, Feb. 15, 2014 (Philippine time), a day after the Valentines Day celebration.
According to some observers who have already watched the footage, Cedric Lee and Deniece Cornejo should explain their side because it is very clear that they are in a relationship contrary to their claim that they are just friends. In one of his interviews before the second CCTV footage gathered by the bureau in Forbeswood Condominium came out, Cedric denied that he is in a relationship with the alleged rape victim of actor-TV host Vhong Navarro, according to him, Deniece is much closer to his sister Bernice Lee.
That was almost two weeks ago, today, things have changed, a lot of people believe that they are in relationship, according to them, the CCTV footage is telling the truth. Meanwhile, Vhong Navarro's supporters are now celebrating because the presiding judge has already dismissed the Temporary Protection Order filed by Deniece Cornejo before the court, based on Atty. Mallonga's statement regarding the dismissal of the TPO, there is no such evidence in the petition to assume that there is a relationship between Deniece and Vhong.
"The petition seeks relief that is not really within the powers of the court to grant, which is a gag order against all tv stations, all social media, any third persons. The court, however, eventually ruled to dismiss the case on another basis. It said there is no basis in the petition to assume that there is a relationship between Vhong and Deniece, so as to put it within the ambit of the law," Atty. Mallonga said.

This watermelon mimosa recipe is a colorful and refreshing twist on the traditional mimosa cocktail – it is made with watermelon, orange juice, sugar to taste, sparkling wine and garnished with fresh mint. One of the things I love about summer, is being able to spend more time outside. This means making refreshing summer drinks, I especially love drinks that are made with sparkling wine – champagne or cava or prosecco. You never know when there might be an occasion to celebrate, so just in case I always keep a bottle of champagne, though lately it has been cava, in the refrigerator. And there's always something to celebrate: it's Friday (or it's Friday junior, i.e. Thursday if I'm desperate), there's a good F1 race on the TV, etc. Of course, the number one reason to celebrate if you live in Seattle: the sun is out! Yes, when the sun comes out around here all I want to do is sit outside and have a nice refreshing celebratory drink. Something quick, refreshing and also a drink where I have the option to leave out the alcohol so that the kids can also enjoy a delicious fruity drink.
This watermelon mimosa is also a good drink to make when you have guests, it is a colorful and tasteful change from the classic mimosa (yes, sometimes I mess with the classics, sorry). You can make the watermelon orange mixture in advance and prepare the drinks when they arrive. For a non-alcoholic version you can either leave out the champagne or replace it with a sparkling limeade.
This watermelon mimosa recipe is a refreshing bubbly cocktail made with watermelon, orange juice, sugar to taste, sparkling wine and garnished with fresh mint.
- 1 quarter of a large watermelon, peeled and cut in small pieces, about 5 cups of fruit
- Juice from 6 large oranges, about 2 cups juice
- 1 bottle of chilled champagne, cava, prosecco or other sparkling wine
- Sugar or honey to taste, based on sweetness of the fruit
- Fresh mint to garnish
- Blend the watermelon chunks with the orange juice and sugar to taste until you have a smooth pure, strain if needed.
- Chill the watermelon orange mix in the refrigerator until ready to prepare the drinks.
- Pour the watermelon orange mix into champagne flutes, about half full.
- Add the champagne or other sparkling wine, pouring it gently to avoid from making a bubbly mess.
- Stir lightly and garnish with a fresh sprig of mint.
For a non-alcoholic version you can either leave out the champagne or replace it with a sparkling limeade or sparkling water.
Other refreshing drinks you might enjoy:
Chicha de piña or spiced pineapple drink

Missile, Surface-to-Air, Rheintochter R I, Sustainer Section
The Rheintochter (Rhine Maiden) R I was an experimental German two-stage anti-aircraft missile tested in the last year of World War II. It was also one of the largest solid-fuel rockets of the war and produced the largest thrust, although for a very short duration. Due to its inadequate altitude ceiling, it was to be supplanted by the R III model, a liquid-fuel missile with two side-mounted solid-fuel boosters, but only six of those were ever launched.
This artifact is the main body or sustainer section of an incomplete Rheintochter,as the missile lacks a guidance section. The Smithsonian acquired it as part of the massive gift of World War II artifacts from the U.S. Air Force in 1949.

Navajo Chief's Blankets: Three Phases
Posted: 2.16.2007
Appraiser Doug Deihl gave this third-phase chief's blanket a conservative value of between $35,000 and $45,000.
This first-phase chief's blanket from the Tucson ANTIQUES ROADSHOW in 2002 was valued at between $350,000 and $500,000.
This 19th-century blanket is woven in a variant second-phase pattern using the prized red bayeta cloth.
The red rectangles in this blanket are often used by experts to identify them as second phase.
This Navajo wearing blanket from the 19th century is in a third-phase pattern with its nine diamonds and half-diamonds.
This third-phase chief's blanket would be worth more if an analysis were to find that the red dye is natural cochineal as opposed to synthetic.
At the Tucson ANTIQUES ROADSHOW in summer 2006, appraiser Douglas Deihl, of Skinner in Boston, Massachusetts, examined an antique Navajo blanket, probably woven in the 1870s, that was colored with indigo blues and a variety of reds. "Stylistically," Douglas told the woman who owned the blanket, "this is called a Navajo third-phase chief's blanket."
To unpack that phrase — "third-phase chief's blanket" — we contacted Tyrone Campbell, who has written books about Navajo weavings and is a dealer of antique Navajo and Pueblo weavings in Scottsdale, Arizona. Campbell explained the phrase and provided a cultural history of the Navajo blanket. Here's what we learned:
In the middle of the 17th century, the Navajo had begun sheep herding and making their own wool, skills they picked up from the Spanish settlers. By the late 17th century, they learned to weave from their neighbors, the Pueblo. The weaving skills of the Navajo craftswomen surpassed those of the Spanish and the Pueblo craftsmen within just a few decades, and Navajo blankets became a prized possession desired by the wealthier Indians and Spanish throughout the West.
Evolutions in the style of chief's blankets through the 19th century
"These were worn by the Navajos," Campbell says, "but they were also commercial items that were traded to the Sioux, the Cheyenne, and the Ute." They were prized, in part, because they served as coats by day and blankets by night and were far lighter than buffalo skins. The Navajo wove the blankets so tightly that they were "practically waterproof," notes Campbell.
The blankets were also valued for their beauty, and an important Indian would wear a blanket proudly as a ceremonial wrap at special occasions. They were commonly called "chief's blankets" by Indians and traders — and are still referred to by that name — because they were so expensive that only chiefs or other wealthy individuals could afford them.
To put it in perspective, Campbell says that in 1860, to buy such a blanket cost between $100 and $150. "Guys are making $5 a week if they're lucky, about half that if they're blue collar," Campbell says. "So that's a year's wages for most men. You could buy a house for $200."
First Phase
Until about the 1820s, the Navajo made simple striped blankets identical to the Pueblo. Then Navajo weavers began making what cultural historians call the "first-phase chief's blankets." The design for these is the simplest of all the Navajo 19th-century blankets, consisting of brown, blue, and white bands and stripes. These blankets, which the Ute Indians prized (hence the reference to them as Ute-style) are most valued by Navajo blanket collectors today, in large part because of their rarity. Less than 50 of these first-phase blankets, made until roughly 1865, survive. In 2002, an unsuspecting owner of a first-phase Navajo blanket found out at the Tucson ANTIQUES ROADSHOW that his blanket was worth between $350,000 and $500,000.
Second and Third Phases
In about 1850, Navajo weavers began adding red rectangles to their blanket designs, which cultural historians use as a marker for "second-phase chief's blankets," which were made until about 1880. "They always have 12 rectangles, grouped in twos," Campbell says. "In the third phase, they went to nine diamonds and half-diamonds." As these design elements were added, they grew larger, becoming more centerpieces of the blankets than embellishments. During the third phase, Navajo weavers also added elements inside the diamonds, including, Campbell says, "zigzags, crosses, thin lines, stacked elements, and triangles."
At the beginning of the second phase, the weavers had also started expanding their color palette, adding yellow and green accents, for example. But one of the colors the Navajo weavers coveted most was the red from the prized bayeta cloth made in England and later, in Spain and Mexico. They would unravel the cloths and then weave the material into rectangles on their blankets. The bayeta, occasionally used in first-phase blankets, became a color and cloth that Navajo weavers used prominently in the second phase. The bayeta was dyed with cochineal, named after the cochineal beetle. "It came in rich shades from rose to deep burgundy and it's permanent," Campbell says. "There's no plant in the Southwest that will give you such an intense red that won't fade."
These three phases composed what is called the Classical period of Navajo blankets, which ended with the arrival of the railroad to the Southwest after 1880. "Cheap manufactured blankets arrived," Tyrone says. "If a Navajo blanket cost $100, one made by Pendleton" — a mill in Pendleton, Oregon, that manufactured blankets for Indians — "cost you $3. The market was killed," Campbell added. "In order to cater to the ever-greater number of tourists, the Navajo began making rugs."

Erin McDermott To Leave Princeton And Become University Of Chicago AD
TigerBlog on Erin McDermott
Erin McDermott, Deputy Athletic Director at Princeton University and one of the most recognizable and respected members of the campus community, has announced that she is leaving her current position to become the Director of Athletics at the University of Chicago.
Using her mix of humor and an easy-going demeanor alongside an unwavering commitment to integrity and the highest ethical standards, McDermott leaves a mark at Princeton in almost every area of the athletic administration.
"I am humbled and honored by the opportunity to be the Athletic Director at the University of Chicago," said McDermott. "UChicago is a preeminent institution of learning, and like Princeton, athletics is aligned with that mission of education and excellence. I am excited to begin working with the athletics staff and the entire University of Chicago community to provide our student-athletes, and all students, with the best possible experience we can."
McDermott has spent 13 years at Princeton, where she rose from an entry-level administrative position into the No. 2 person in the athletic department, as well as a campus-wide and national leader on many areas within athletics, student-athlete wellness, education and oversight. She often crosses over from working in athletics to take a direct role in campus-wide leadership.
"Erin McDermott is a very talented and experienced intercollegiate athletic leader who will have a very dramatic and positive influence on the student-athlete experience and the athletic performance at the University of Chicago," says Princeton's Ford Family Director of Athletics Gary Walters. "Chicago has made a very enlightened choice, and both the university and the athletic department will benefit from Erin's ability to conduct an intercollegiate athletic program that is consistent with the university's liberal arts educational mission. Princeton is proud of Erin and happy for her and congratulates the University of Chicago for performing excellent due diligence. They made a wise choice indeed."
In her current role McDermott has direct responsibility for intercollegiate programming, scheduling, facilities, strength and conditioning and many other areas. She also serves as the department's liaison to the admissions office, as well as on any number of Princeton committees and initiatives.
On a national level, she has worked on several NCAA committees, most notably the Division I field hockey committee, for which she served as chair for two seasons, and the Division I championships cabinet. She has also been very active with the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletic Administrators.
""We are ecstatic for Erin and the University of Chicago community," said Patti Phillips, NACWAA chief executive officer. "Erin is an exceptional and proven leader in athletics, and has made a significant impact nationally through her service to NACWAA, the NCAA and Ivy League. Her extraordinary dedication to student-athletes and commitment to academic excellence will take Chicago athletics to new heights."
McDermott is a 1994 graduate of Hofstra University, where she played basketball and earned the school's scholar-athlete award. She worked in the athletic administration at Columbia University before coming to Princeton.
The second female Director of Athletics at the University of Chicago, she will oversee a Division III athletic department that has 19 varsity sports, more than 40 club sports and an intramural program that attracts thousands of students.
McDermott, Princeton's Senior Woman Administrator, is the seventh member of Princeton's administration in Walters' tenure to become an athletic director or conference commissioner.
"Of course, it is bittersweet to leave Princeton after 13 years. I would like to thank Gary Walters for his support and mentorship, as well as the many talented administrators, coaches, student-athletes and colleagues that I have worked with at Princeton and in the Ivy League. I am incredibly fortunate to have grown alongside them and have learned from every one of them."
McDermott will take over at Chicago on July 22. A national search for her successor at Princeton will take place.
