February is Here Already
Monday, February 04, 2013
Gosh January flew by. Already one month down in 2013 and I am not making any progress on my weight loss front. Every time I think it will get less hectic things just don't turn out that way. I simply have to TAKE the time for me. I have recommitted to exercising by walking in my neighborhood. While I have a treadmill I much prefer to walk outdoors. Time seems to go by faster and the walk seems more fulfilling outdoors than on that treadmill that never takes me anywhere.
The Super Bowl is over and Mardi Gras is in full swing down here in south Louisiana. Two more weekends of Mardi Gras fun and then Lent is upon us. Hopefully those 6 weeks of "sacrifice" will help me keep on track before Easter arrives.
Spring has definitely arrived in the south. My petunias, pansies, snapdragons, dianthus and calendulas are starting to put on their show for the springtime. The camellias have finished their fall/winter show. I had a medium sized red maple removed this past week from my backyard as I simply had too much shade. When you first build your new home (almost 20 years ago now) you can't wait to get shade down here in the hot south. Now that the tress are maturing I have too much of a good thing so one tree was taken down. Hopefully the grass will grow back in that area. Two other oak trees were pruned and shaped as well. We need to do that down here to help the tress survive a hurricane if one comes. Thinning out the center of tress makes them much better able to withstand the winds and prevents them from falling over. Well maintained trees usually survive a hurricane without issue, whereas those which are allowed to grow unkempt are usually the ones that fall over and do damage. A small price to pay for a healthy tree.
I am getting ready to prepare and plant my spring/summer vegetables and pots. Tomato plants and herbs are arriving now in the nurseries with spring flowering plants also available. I plant the spring flowering plants in the ground in late fall but I wait until now to plant all my pots around my pond area and patio. Simply too much to hall in if we get a hard freeze. The ones in the ground can take it but not the ones in a pot.
Happy Mardi Gras everyone.

Thanks for remind me it is pancake Tuesday in England. I was thinking about supper time but just for a very big treat I will make English style pancakes for DH and I and that will be really nice with some fruit to go with it.
We have small ranch house very popular in New England these days. We put a pool in the back yard-a swimming pool that is but it is only any use 2 months at the most. Every year I expect to find it has collapsed it is close to 40 years old in ground pool. I keep saying we will fill it in and make a sunken garden for the summer with it. I used to grow vegetables but we have a small RV and we like to take off so the yard was neglected so it is mostly back to grass.
We have a son in CA in Walnut Creek and another in North Las Vegas I have no clue when we will ever be able to travel down there though. It must be lovely for flowers, I think I will be planting some of the same spring flowers in May or even June. Oh well I have read some of your blogs HUGS at in Maine who talks too much. ((((HUGS))))

Victor Newman attempted to play God on many occasions on 'The Young and the Restless' through the years. But, employing a 'Cassie Newman' double to try and drive 'Sharon Newman' over the edge? This act likely rivals every scheme that the 'Dark Knight' ever assembled.
Eric Braeden has masterfully played the Genoa City version of Machiavelli since January 1980. Since that time this daytime drama king has lived by his own code of ethics in order to maintain control over his empire, which includes a full blend of family and business ties.
Camryn Grimes famously grew into the role of 'Cassie' before a change in story line direction caused her character to die in 2005. 'Sharon' and 'Nick Newman' have each seen their departed daughter since her death. But, Grimes' subsequent scenes were filmed as fond projections of who 'Cassie' might have become, rather than as supernatural reincarnations.
'Sharon' began seeing and speaking with 'Cassie' last year. But, mental health issues were cited as the reasons behind those apparitions. It appears as though 'Noah Newman's' recent relay of that sensitive information to his grandfather at the GCAC may have sparked 'Victor's' latest dastardly scheme.
With past projections of her daughter having disappeared, a mysterious occurrence took place when 'Sharon' somehow made physical contact with the apparent 'Cassie' in recent episodes. Now that 'Victor' called and then met with whoever Grimes is portraying at 'Katherine Chancellor' park today, potential 'Dark Shadows' fantastic phantasms have been put to rest.
This time 'Victor' didn't pay a plastic surgeon to remake the face of Patti Williams into Dr. Emily Peterson, which complicated Jack Abbott's life to no good end. Instead, 'The Mustache' is simply employing (in his scripted words) "a dead ringer" to play the role of his step-granddaughter with the clear intent of driving his hated ex-daughter-in-law 'Sharon' mad.
Loyal viewers know that when this incredible information is revealed a firestorm of emotion will explode through the screen of their still-favorite daytime steamer.

Envirosponsible Cribs?
From Dean Dowd on June 10, 2010 in General Remodel
In a throwback to pioneer days, a new building concept is emerging onto the scene. It's called The Crib, and while it refers to neither a sleeping spot for a baby nor the residence of a homeboy, this little dwelling place does have a lot of appeal. The title "crib" goes back to the homesteading days of early America, where homesteaders constructed miniature cribs for the purpose of safely storing food.
The modern day crib, an eco-friendly multiuse building by Broadhurst Architects, is constructed after the same pattern. But its a whole lot better. For one, its all-out green. Equipping your crib with skylights, open window ventilation, rain barrels, and a tiny footprint is the perfect way to go green. Other green features, most of them optional, are LED or CFL lighting, recycled materials, and an efficient HVAC system.
Most cribs are constructed off the ground, enabling a two-story construction option, which also protects the structure from termites and other insects. They usually feature a garage-door-style wall, which can be opened for more of an outdoorsy feel, or simply to cool the place down. A third levela loft, reallyconserves space and offers a great spot for additional sleeping.
The crib is small. The Basic version is a mere 175 square feet. For those who want to live large, there is a 250-square-foot version. Its designed for the simple life. And it lacks the creature comforts of a spa vacation. But if you have a crib, you may find that your getaways are more satisfying than ever before.

In China, the Government Offices Administration of the State Council has reportedly agreed to stop serving shark fin soup at official banquets, to take effect in the next 1-3 years. The administration was responding to a proposal submitted by 30 officials from the National People's Congress, spearheaded by delegate Ding Liguo, who announced the news on his microblog on Friday, according to Global Times.
Peter Knights, Executive Director of WildAid, says, "With this public commitment, China has emerged as a leader in shark conservation and has the potential to stabilize shark populations and maintain the health of our oceans. A ban on all shark fin imports to China that cannot be clearly proven to be sustainably and humanely fished would be the logical next step to achieve this."
Around the world, the movement to protect sharks has gained significant momentum in recent months. Just this week, Illinois became the fifth state in the U.S. (and the second largest) to pass a ban on the sale, trade, possession, and distribution of shark fin products, joining Hawaii, Washington, Oregon, and California.
In Canada, the first municipal shark fin ban in the country took effect this week in the city of Mississuaga. In total, ten municipalities to date, including Toronto, have successfully voted to ban the sale and consumption of shark fin products.
Back in November 2011, Peninsula Hotels, Asia's oldest hotel company, announced they would stop serving shark fin across its portfolio of hotel restaurants and banquet operations. Shortly thereafter, Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts, which operates 72 luxury hotels worldwide, announced in January 2012 that it would no longer serve shark fins across its portfolio of properties.
Fins from up to 73 million sharks are used every year to make shark fin soup and related food products. Shark finning is a cruel and wasteful practice – captured at sea and hauled on deck, the sharks are often still alive while their fins are sliced off. Because shark meat is not considered as valuable as the fins, the maimed animals are tossed overboard to drown or bleed to death. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) estimates that 1/3 of the world's pelagic shark species are threatened with extinction, with certain species experiencing declines up to 90%.
With China's rapidly expanding economy and burgeoning middle class, an increasing number of consumers can now afford shark fin soup, which had once been accessible to very few.

So, you have decided to get satellite television and now you want to know how to align a satellite dish. My advise is simple. Do not align your own satellite dish. There are professionals who do that sort of thing. If you subscribe to satellite service through a provider, such as DirecTV or DISH Network, they will send installation technicians to your home to install and align your dish for you. Let them do it, since they have been trained.
In order to receive a clear signal, or any signal at all, it is vitally important that your satellite dish is aligned correctly. You would need special equipment, at least a signal meter, to do it properly. You also need to know the location of the satellite you are intending to use. For example, if you try to set up your own satellite dish for DirecTV, it wouldn't do you any good pointing your dish at a DISH Network satellite. There are a lot of satellites in the sky.
When aligning a satellite, you must be sure that the line of sight between the satellite dish and the satellite orbiting the earth is not blocked by trees, buildings or anything else. The satellite dish needs to be aligned both horizontally and vertically and there is little room for error. It is possible to align the dish by a method of trial and error, with someone on the roof moving the dish and someone inside the home checking the signal and relaying information about its status. However, since your direct broadcasting satellite provider, such as DirecTV or DISH Network, will usually install the hardware for free as a benefit of signing the contract, it is best to just let them do the work, even if it means waiting.
If, however, you cannot have someone install the satellite dish for you – for example, if you have Free to Air satellite – then here are the steps for aligning your satellite dish:
First, set up the dish antenna. Then adjust the low noise converter (LNC) horn by moving it horizontally. Connect the LNC to the receiver using the coaxial cable and then connect the receiver to your television. Upon turning on your television, this would be a good time to consult the manual that should have come with the satellite dish or receiver. The elevation of the dish is determined by your location. Find the appropriate elevation and adjust the dish vertically. The elevation indicator should be lined up with the elevation number for your location (found in the manual).
Once you think you have the satellite dish aligned, flip through the channels on your television and make sure they match the channels in your guide. If they do not, then you are picking up a signal from the wrong satellite and your dish needs to be adjusted. Adjust the picture quality by moving the LNC in and out. One you have a good signal and picture, secure the dish so it won't move, even in bad weather.

Al Youngb. 1939
The writer Al Young shares a birthday with Walt Whitman, and like his great predecessor in the American grain is a poet of celebratory exuberance. Born on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and raised in both the South and North, Young studied at the University of Michigan before settling in California; he has also traveled extensively. His work, which shows the deep influence of blues and jazz music, is written in an engaging, freewheeling idiom and conveys the humor and beauty to be found in even the most dire of situations.

Sarah's closets were bursting at the seams!
She had a dresser that was protruding out into the doorway, stacks of shoeboxes and a cluttered mess that made it impossible for her to find anything. She was extremely frustrated every day and couldn't wait to re-do her small, oddly shaped space.
We designed a walk-in system that included plenty of hanging space, recessed shelving and nine levels of shoe storage (no more shoeboxes!).
After the installation was complete, Sarah and her husband Adam reported that the project got them to eliminate a lot of unneeded items from their closets, and Sarah found a whole new, refreshed work wardrobe in her own closet!
They were thrilled with the outcome and said that Sarah's custom closet came out even nicer than they had expected.
I love when a well thought-out closet design with simple, smart features can transform a client's home and life. If you're ever dealing with an unusual or small storage area, don't lose hope! There's always a solution that maximizes the space and reduces clutter.

She is proud to represent California Closets as the Northern NJ representative with the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID).

Trayvons parents come home
caines | 4/5/2012, 5 a.m.
National leaders promise to remain until shooter is arrested
Often times in cases like this, it is the backing of celebrities or nationally-known people of prominence that are able to bring about real change. And Sundays rally was no exception as many brought both their checkbooks and their voices to push for the arrest of George Zimmerman. Sports greats like Isaiah Thomas and Alonzo Mourning, who was joined by his wife, Tracy and their 16-year-old son, all repeated the phrase, I am Trayvon Martin donning their own hoodies as a sign of solidarity. Singer Chaka Khan said she is mobilizing other entertainers to give their assistance to the family of Trayvon Martin. She was joined by actress Jo Marie Payton and singer Betty Wright, both natives of Miami-Dade County. The message that we see is how fear can kill and how only love can heal, Chaka Khan said. County Commissioner Barbara Jordan spoke on behalf of her colleagues, Commissioners Audrey Edmonson and Jean Monestime. The actions that transpired in Sanford remind me of the way life was for Blacks in the 50s and 60s, she said. Why is it that a bag of Skittles and an iced tea was enough for one man to kill an innocent boy? We have to remain steadfast today and we are pleading with the special prosecutor, Angela Corey, to get justice for Trayvon Martin. Black elected officials were out in force, some speaking on stage, others quietly raising their fists in support the list is too long to include every name. But remarks from the Rev. Jamal Harrison Bryant, 40, pastor of Empowerment Temple AME Church in Baltimore, and the Rev. Al Sharpton summed up the feelings of the many who attended. When the family is in trouble, schedules are canceled, Sharpton said. We are against all forms of justice thats why I was here before standing up against gang-bangers in Miami Gardens. Why hasnt Zimmerman been arrested? Officials say they need more evidence. We say, go to the tape [911]. Stand Your Ground is a law that must be reviewed, revamped and possibly repealed because it is part of a crooked justice system, Bryant said. Florida may have let Casey Anthony go, but they better not let George Zimmerman walk free. There will be no rest without an arrest. By D. Kevin email@example.com

With deaths from heroin and prescription painkiller overdoses now a full-swing American epidemic, the federal government has taken steps towards preventing drug fatalities by approving an at home overdose antidote.
Earlier this week, the Food and Drug Administration approved a device called Evzio, which reverses the effects of an opioid overdose and revives drug users before they drift off into the eternal nod. Evzio works by allowing a person to inject the drug "naloxone" into an unresponsive opioid abuser in order to counteract the slowed-down breathing that often leads to death.
Medical personnel have used naloxone for years, but now family members, friends and even junkies themselves will be able to keep the life-saving medication on hand in case of an overdose emergency. Administering the drug is not quite a traumatic as having to give someone an adrenalin shot through his or her breastplate and into the heart; Evzio is simply injected under the skin or into the muscle. But a prescription will be required, according to the FDA.
Recent statistics from the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention indicate there were over 16,000 deaths in 2010 as the result of opioid overdoses, with prescription painkillers being the primary culprit. So, it stands to reason that a large percentage of overdose fatalities could quite possibly be starved off with the advent of this medication in homes across the country.
However, there is some concern that people will use Evzio as a safety net and it will encourage drug abusers to experiment with higher dosages. Yet, Douglas Throckmorton with the FDA Center for Drug Evaluation and Research says an injection of naloxone does not discount the need for medical assistance, but it will ultimately save some lives.

General Chain's Kip Schaumloffel says: "We're manufacturers who supply the manufacturers." (Images courtesy of General Chain)
CINCINNATI - What does it take for a family business to survive and thrive for 25 years or more? Our weekly feature shares the secrets to success of local businesses with staying power.
Originally known as the Cincinnati Pump & Mfg. Co., John Martin Schaumloffel purchased the company in 1917. The name was changed to General Chain & Mfg. Corp. in 1961 and the business focused on manufacturing well pumps and RFD Mail Boxes (which led to chain manufacturing and then custom wire forming).
By 1972, with the pump, mailbox and chain businesses fading out (due to foreign competition), the company changed focus again to embrace current business demands and today strictly makes wire forms and sub-assemblies.
WCPO Insiders can read a Q&A with Kip Schaumloffel, who explains how a gap in skills in affecting his ability to hire and keep workers. Plus, you'll never guess what he does in his spare time. (Hint: radio)

The president is Eric Schaumloffel (above right). His son Kip (above left) currently serves as senior vice president and handles most of the day to day operations.
Q & A with Kip Schaumloffel
Who are your customers?
We're manufacturers who supply the manufacturers. Our business is about 60 percent automotive (the Big 3 and most major Japanese and Korean Companies), and 40 percent other OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) --telecom, lawn/garden Equipment, ariculture and industrial air filtration."
What's great about doing business in this region?
Cincinnati is at a crossroads of major interstates. We have direct access to the Southeast and upper Midwest. Being in a central location in the U.S. makes us very accessible for supply chains across the country.
What's challenging about doing business in this region?
The lack of skilled help that understand the trade. Once upon a time, Cincinnati was known for machine tool and die and mechanical engineering. I don't know what happened or what caused it, but the trade schools for a period of time -- starting probably in the 80s-- they basically contracted in their enrollment; there was just not a lot of young people studying the trades.
We are starting to hopefully see some of that coming back with Cincinnati State and the Great Oaks Career Campuses. That's usually where we would go (to find qualified employees) and even at those places, it was like pulling teeth to find people. Habits have changed. Consumption has changed. At the end of the day, that was one of the things that was so frustrating to watch in the late 1990s and through the 2000s, everyone was saying we're going to become a service economy and everything's going tech.
Yeah, there's obviously been massive growth in tech and innovation, but somebody still has to make these things. So there was a huge vacuum that was created in the trades because young people simply didn't want to get their hands dirty.
What has proven to be the key to your longevity?
There's two different kinds of business in our industry: There's massive-volume business, and then there's lower-volume, more specialized type process, which you can't just run on one machine. There are secondary operations that must be performed on them that requires a little more skill in engineering and design.
That's really where our niche is. We find that people -- even in our industry looking in from the outside -- will think we are direct competitors. But actually they're on a more automated scale. They're running mass volume and they end up looking to us to supply parts that they just don't want to get involved in because it doesn't fit their model or the way they work. Their economy and scale just don't apply. we're probably never gojng to be the biggest, but we grow a little bit at a time and we stay consistent. We try to adapt to changing economic conditions while constantly finding niche opportunities."

I'm still not quite getting the decision to draft Pat White, and then saying he will compete for the backup job and then some.
Does that mean that he's got that much talent? Or that they plan to run more wildcat-like plays in '09? Or maybe something else?
I just don't know.
But one thing I do know for sure - make that 3/3 in drafting a QB on the first day of the NFL draft. First you had Beck, last year it was Henne, this year its White.
That's something Nick, Dave, and Jimmy (and even Shula) didn't do over the last decade. And as Ireland said "you can never have enough quality QBs"

I sit and watch you from my window lady
I see you giving yourself away,
You've been working hard all day.
I see the ground catch at your feet
I see the sweet signs of defeat
Like you're beatten, but you feel no pain
And then you turn to me instinctively
Just like you're checking if you're alone
Then like a reflex from my guilty mind
I fall away into the background
Like a shadow on the wall
Shadow on the wall (3x)
See I've got nothing left to loose
I think it's time I change my view (3x)
Just like a king in his lonely kingdom
Like a ruler who had no rules
See I've got nothing left to lose
I think its time i change my view (3x)
I got nothing left to loose
Like a bum who never had no shoes
Walking these streets, deep and dark as night
I wanna love I don't wanna fight
I wanna love I don't wanna fight, yeah yeah (7x)

Sorry, Western Conference.
It's also great for fans who live close and can just grab a train or subway to either arena.
But what if you're a Rangers fan and have tickets to Game 3 on Saturday in New Jersey, but can't find a ride? Worse yet, you lost your Metro card and don't have enough scratch to buy a new one. What do you do?
How about taking a flight from LaGuardia Airport in Queens to Newark, New Jersey?
Yes, a flight. You will hop in an airplane and travel a whole 20 miles.
Delta Airlines is making this possible for Rangers fans through a very unique promotion. Fans have until 5 p.m. ET today to fill out a form on the Rangers website to be entered. The 17-minute trip on Saturday morning includes seats on the charter flight, Rangers swag, ground transportation to and from Newark Airport and the opportunity to win a chance to go on a road trip to a Rangers away game next season.
It's not the first time such an offer has been available for fans. In 2005, United Airlines had a promotion with the Chicago Tribune and another paper where Chicago White Sox fans could fly from O'Hare Airport to Midway Airport for that days game against the Cubs.
According to CBS New York, Rangers alumni Ron Duguay and Rod Gilbert will also be aboard the flight where you'll be able to ask Duguay what his favorite hair care products are and all about that 1979 Sasson jeans commercial.

As most boxing fans and observers are aware by now, former five division champ Thomas Hearns 61-5-1 (48) has been nominated for induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame, and he will no doubt be officially inducted this coming June in Canastota, New York. Nominating an athlete to any HOF can be tricky because everyone uses different criteria to determine if one athlete is more worthy than another as a legitimate HOF'er. Then again, there are those that when you hear their name, you don't have to debate with yourself for a second whether or not they belong, you know they do without even thinking about it. However, there are some fighters in the IBHOF who shouldn't be there. For instance, when you hear the names Ingemar Johansson or Ken Norton, both are former heavyweight champions and HOF inductees. Are they worthy of HOF status? I say no and since their official inductions in 2002 (Johansson) and 1992 (Norton), I still haven't figured out exactly why they're there.
Then there's a fighter like Thomas Hearns, who the very second you hear he's a nominee, you say yes. If there ever was a fighter who's a first ballot HOF'er, it's Hearns. Think about the credentials of the former "Hitman." Hearns has to be considered one of the top 10 pound-for-pound punchers in boxing history. During a career that spanned from 1977 through 2006, Hearns won titles at welterweight, junior middleweight, middleweight, super-middleweight and light heavyweight. And in the midst of doing so he stopped fighters weighing between 147-190 pounds. And there are plenty of stories throughout different gyms throughout the country where he bested and even stopped some good heavyweights while sparring.
Hearns possessed a 78 inch reach as a welterweight, had a piston like left jab, a heat seeking missile for a right hand and a devastating left hook, especially to the body. That makes three different punches he could end a fight with. The list of fighters who that could be said about is short. In addition to that, Hearns has to rank as one of the top five greatest welterweights in boxing history and a terrific case can be made that he's the greatest junior middleweight in the history of the division. This is a fighter whose prime was during the 1980s, which may be one of the strongest and deepest decades ever for great fighters, excluding heavyweights. And if you want to start a list of the top five pound-for-pound fighters of the 1980s, only Sugar Ray Leonard and Michael Spinks deserve to rank ahead of Hearns.
But that's just part of the story.
The opposition Hearns faced and defeated during his career is a mini hall-of-fame list in itself. Hearns basically retired Sugar Ray Leonard after their first fight and was about five minutes away from winning it before succumbing in the 14th round to a desperate Leonard who was trailing on the scorecards when the fight ended. And although Hearns is officially 0-1-1 against Ray, everyone who saw their rematch knows he won it, and Leonard has admitted so himself in his recently released auto-biography and also during several interviews he's given since the bout 22 years ago. Hearns is also the only fighter to knock out the real Roberto Duran. In fact Roberto fell face first courtesy of one Hearns right hand to the chin. He also devastated Pipino Cuevas to win the welterweight title and out-boxed and out-fought the once beaten Wilfred Benitez during a junior middleweight title bout. In his first challenge for the middleweight title, Hearns was stopped by Marvin Hagler in the third round in what is regarded as one of the most exciting fights in championship history.
Part of the beauty and greatness of Thomas Hearns is he fought everybody who was somebody and gave the sport of professional boxing all he had every time out, win or lose. He never boasted after an impressive knockout and never made excuses after a loss. Over the years some have described him as a fighter who didn't have such a great chin. Luckily, they've been smart enough to never question his heart, but label his chin as suspect, something I'm not on board with. Only Iran Barkley stopped him with one punch, and that was a lottery shot in a bout that was just about to be halted because Hearns was tearing Iran apart. In their rematch six years later at light heavyweight a shot Hearns went the distance with Barkley. Sure, he was stopped by both Leonard and Hagler, but Leonard, who was a terrific puncher himself at welterweight, hit him for 14 rounds before finally finishing him, and Hagler hit him more times clean in three rounds than any other fighter he hit in 10 rounds before he was stopped.
Another mark against Hearns is the fact that he lost the two signature fights of his career, to Leonard at 147 in 1981 and Hagler at 160 in 1985. But is that so bad? Think about it, Leonard is considered by many historians as the second greatest welterweight of all-time and only ranks behind Sugar Ray Robinson - and those same historians consider Hagler amongst the five greatest middleweights ever. And it's a fact the legacy of both Leonard and Hagler were cemented because they beat Hearns when they did. If Hearns wasn't great, then why does beating him circa 1981-1985 solidify their credentials as all-time greats? And in all fairness, Hearns is really 1-1 against Leonard.
As for why Hearns ranks above Hagler pound-for-pound despite losing to him... It's partly because he accomplished more and not only won the middleweight title after losing to Hagler, he also won a piece of the light heavyweight title twice, as well. Marvin never left the middleweight division and formed a lot of his legacy beating smaller fighters who moved up, whereas Hearns sought the bigger challenges at higher weights. Hearns was also a better puncher and more versatile than Hagler, and against two common marquee opponents, Leonard and Duran, Hearns inflicted more damage on Leonard and devastated Duran 10 months after Roberto went 15-rounds with Hagler. As to their versatility, Hagler was great when his opponent pressed him, but if he had to force the fight as he did against Duran and Leonard, he was significantly less effective, as opposed to Hearns who could use the ring and box or he could be a catch and kill attacker.
For whatever the reason, some fighters never get their just due from the fans and media. Thomas Hearns is a great example of that. Maybe he's best remembered for losing to Leonard and Hagler in two highly promoted superfights that were seen worldwide. Regardless of the reason, Hearns is a certified all-time great and provided fans with many more thrilling and exciting fights than Leonard and Hagler combined.
Just in case anyone is cloudy about Hearns as a fighter, let me repeat, he's one of the top 10 greatest pound-for-pound punchers in boxing history. One of the five greatest welterweights of all-time and one of the top three fighters of the 1980s. He could box and punch, he fought the greatest fighters of his era in between 147-168, and he's beyond all doubt a Hall-of-Fame fighter/boxer.
Lastly, think about what he would do to Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao at 147 if he were around today. The Hearns who destroyed Cuevas and fought Leonard in 1981 would be a nightmare for either Floyd or Manny. In fact Mayweather would demand Hearns enter the ring with his right elbow and left knee in a brace, and Pacquiao would make him weigh in at 143 five minutes before they entered the ring.
Thomas Hearns was a real fighter and his inclusion into the IBHOF actually adds a little credibility to what's become a very watered down hall.

Nice article. Big Hearns fan! Your appreciation of his under-appreciated hook is apt - that torpedo to the midsection was a dramatic punch. I disagree with his ranking above Hagler, though. Hagler was more consistent, more dominant, had the better chin, better stamina, and, in his prime, definitely fought and beat or destroyed legitimate top-tier middleweights. Part of Hearns appeal, once he moved up, was his ability to fight through a definite vulnerability - that chin could crack much more easily than you say, those legs turned to rubber with minimal provocation, and he had lots of trouble against a variety of fighters who were not, in the big picture, in his league, not to mention his eventual crumbling against the great Hagler and Leonard. But the heart, skill, and beautiful power punching indeed make him a HOF cinch.
Wow! Straight-up do I ditto mortcola. Tommy was great, but did have a lot of flaws with fighters -- not "in his league" -- like the nowadays [Rev.] James "The Heat" Kinchen. Everyone and his cousion know that Tommy got a gift decision again him. And one would think that Iran Barkley would not be able to wear the Hitman's jockstrap. But IB straight-up owned Tommy.
I too cannot see how Tommy can be ranked above the Mavelous one. If the moola would have been right, I don't see how Marvelous Marvin Hagler could not have won one of those alphabet titles at light-heavyweight, himself. And, of course, he probably would stayed around to win the psuedo-supermiddleweight title. You know what, MMH were an undisputed champion. Tommy never was. Just think about it. Holla!
The Hitman is one of the ATG's no doubt. He just happened to run into Sugar Ray and Hagler in his two biggest fights. Hearns was robbed in the rematch vs SRL, crushed Duran, beat Benitez, and won belts from 147-175.
Hearns was an ATG unfortunately born into the era of ATGs Hagler and Leonard. The way Hearns dismantled Roberto Duran was frightening. I'm sure Duran wouldn't rank Hearns less than HOF. Duran, at whatever his weight was supposed to be, was deadlier than them all.
Not even debatable, Hearns is a first-ballot no-brainer HOF'er. One of the ATG's of my 40 years, and a MAJOR player of those great 80's round-robins. Even in defeat, his stature was elevated. The loss to Leonard (1) and Hagler were record book losses, but wins in the eyes of history. There's no shame in being on the losing end of those magnificent bouts. He decimated Cuevas, in 1984 did to Duran what NO MAN ever did to RD, would engage in a couple of great wars with Iran Barkley, who simply had his number after numerous ring wars, and beat Virgil Hill. And he did it entirely with class.
Ray Leonard, who publicly declares Hearns the winner of their rematch, said the only guy who never complained about being robbed that night was Tommy Hearns.
One last thing. Hearns' highlight reel 2nd round KO of Duran took place on free Saturday afternoon television (I believe CBS). The inflation rate of that fight today would be an 18 month build-up, NO tune-ups, establish a catch-weight, quarantine both guys, and a major PPV (with a worthless undercard). Back then, they signed on the line that was dotted and 4-6 weeks later, may the best man win. It's truly sad what things have become.
Well said Condor, both posts.
Condor, you nailed it. Thanks for your post. So many smart folks here on TSS. I'm only a comedian and happy to be here!

Yeah, I think there are way too many associations for me to be comfortable with Riddick as a name.
June 7th, 2013 10:56 AM #10
The character of Riddick has been around a LOOOONG time - that's a sequel (or a prequel) coming out in September. The Chronicles of Riddick was out previously, along with Pitch Black I think. They were pretty good movies, even tho that's really not my style, so maybe watching them would make you feel more positive about it? Unless you just outright dislike Vin Diesel.
But I have to agree with pp's anyway, when I hear it outside of those movies, I think ridiculous. And I would avoid having *dick* is any boy's name (even if it is technically an old-fashioned nn for Richard!). Opening up too many teasing opportunities. Brecken is nms either but I think it's the much better choice between the two! Good luck!Christine

As well as being a character in several blockbuster movies, there are also a few blockbuster video games (a series that may be continuing in future years if it remains as popular as it is) with Riddick as the main character. Same character as the movies.
And yeah, as others have mentioned, even without the movie/video game series association, the 'dick' ending and the "ridic"ulous thing make this one feel like quite an unusable name to me.
Breckin is cool though.Updated Name List- http://www.ebabynames.com/list/eff115- Vote away...

Spirits of Just Mentells the story of moonshine in 1930s America, as seen through the remarkable location of Franklin County, Virginia, a place that many still refer to as the "moonshine capital of the world." Charles D. Thompson Jr. chronicles the Great Moonshine Conspiracy Trial of 1935, which made national news and exposed the far-reaching and pervasive tendrils of Appalachia's local moonshine economy. Thompson, whose ancestors were involved in the area's moonshine trade and trial as well as local law enforcement, uses the event as a stepping-off point to explore Blue Ridge Mountain culture, economy, and political engagement in the 1930s. Drawing from extensive oral histories and local archival material, he illustrates how the moonshine trade was a rational and savvy choice for struggling farmers and community members during the Great Depression. Local characters come alive through this richly colorful narrative, including the stories of Miss Ora Harrison, a key witness for the defense and an Episcopalian missionary to the region, and Elder Goode Hash, an itinerant Primitive Baptist preacher and juror in a related murder trial. Considering the complex interactions of religion, economics, local history, Appalachian culture, and immigration, Thompson's sensitive analysis examines the people and processes involved in turning a basic agricultural commodity into such a sought-after and essentially American spirit.

The quality of your credit report affects many areas of your life. The amount of money you can borrow and the terms of the loans are directly dependent on your credit score. The better your credit report, the more freedom you have in choosing the best loan arrangements. Insurance companies and employers also rely on credit reports to determine your eligibility for work and coverage. Mistakes on a credit report can have drastic consequences, but are not difficult to fix.
Go to the Source
The easiest way to fix an error on your credit report is to visit or call the company that reported the late charge or judgment in the first place. Bring copies of receipts, or just talk to the accounting or billing department to find out why the charge was added. You may find that the company simply made a clerical error and can fix the problem with a letter to the credit reporting agencies stating its mistake. Or maybe you do owe the company a balance that you can pay and then get the report amended.
Order Free Credit Reports
If the company refuses to budge, the next step in repairing a mistake on your credit report is to obtain copies of the report from the three major credit reporting agencies. You are legally entitled to get a free copy of your credit report every year from Equifax, TransUnion and Experian. While you might find thousands of hits if you search for free credit reports online, there is only one place that guarantees not to charge anything for copies of those reports -- www.annualcreditreport.com. Carefully scrutinize the documents to ensure the error is not due to identity fraud, in which case there may be more than one mistake.
Write a Letter
Highlight the errors on your report and then compose a letter to each credit reporting agency that shows the mistake. In the letter, identify the errors by naming the source of the charge and the type of account. Describe why the entry is wrong and request that the mistake be corrected and the error removed from your credit report. The Federal Trade Commission makes this process easy by providing a sample letter on its website that you can just copy and fill in the particular blanks. Send a copy of the letter to the company that filed the error.
Back Up Your Claim
To make the whole process even easier, send copies of documentation that supports your claim, such as a receipt or a letter you wrote to close an account. By law, the credit reporting agencies, or CRAs, must investigate your claim within 30 days even if you can't produce any evidence. As part of the investigation, they too will send letters to the claimants asking for proof of the debt. Once they receive answers from the creditors, they must correct your report and send you a letter about their findings. If they find the charge is valid and refuse to remove it, you can write another letter disputing the charge and have it attached to your credit report.

The Nike news cycles "Just Do It" which precludes doing it well.
The UK now has a bill for gay marriage. Other states in America are also recognizing that gay people are humans. Does Katter see the light differently now with the rest of the world realizing that it's discriminative to deny people their rights?
Katter danced around this question. How about giving a straight answer....
There has been a lot of news about public servants being laid off under Campbell Newman. However, the news we get is biased towards how it affects people in Brisbane, partly because media organisations are based there. What we don't hear so much is how it affects people in the bush.
Would you be willing to talk about how the layoffs are affecting your constituents in Kennedy?

What's Up:
No. 17 Arizona heads to Davis, Calif. for the first of two meets on the west coast. This Friday, March 2nd the Cats will be taking on UC Davis, San Jose State, and Alaska. The meet is scheduled to begin at 7:00 p.m. at the Pavilion. Live stats will be available the day of the meet.
Scouting the Opposition:
UC Davis: Last week the Aggies earned a conference win over Seattle Pacific, posting a team total score of 192.900. Junior Katie Yamamura took two event totals and placed first in the all-around, also earning conference recognition as Gymnast of the Week. Other notable performances came from junior Leah Housman, who earned her third straight beam title with a 9.800.
San Jose State: The San Jose State Spartans swept the podium last week, posting a 194.900 against Maryland (194.250) and California (192.475). Thomasina Wallace was the standout for the Spartans, earning her fifth all-around title posting a 39.350. Katie Valleau also had an outstanding performance, tying her career high 9.90 to win floor.
Alaska: Alaska should be well rested up after two weeks of break. In their most recent meet, the Seawolfs fell to Air Force, posting a team total 189.300. Highlights came from a career-high 37.775 all-around from freshman Morgan Cook, and a 37.725 from Melissa Doucette.
Last Week:
The Wildcats had three standout events, posting a 49.025 on vault, a 49.075 on beam and a 49.125 under the leadership of the seniors for a come-from-behind conference win against the then No. 25 Washington Huskies.
Cats in the Rankings:
Aubree Cristello is on the up and up, earning a national ranking of No. 7 after her fifth consecutive score of 9.90 (or better) on floor.

2011 Review:
The Wildcats completed the 2011 season with an overall record of 13-12 and were able to make their 25th consecutive NCAA post-season appearance. Finishing fifth at the Pac-10 Championships and the NCAA Regional Championships, Arizona rounded out the season ranked No. 20 in the nation.
Major contributors included then RS senior Miranda Russell, and then-juniors Deanna Graham and Katie Matusik.
Russell, who had spent her RS junior season competing only on bars, returned to vault and floor in 2011, making a huge impact on the team totals with high scores of 9.875 on vault, two scores 9.90 on bars, and a career high 9.925 on floor. Russell also took fifth place on vault at the Pac-10 Championships, and sixth place on both bars and floor at the NCAA Regional Championships.
Graham was one of the team's top all-around athletes, posting a season high AA score of 39.100 at the Pac-10 Championships. Graham also tallied high scores of 9.925 on vault, 9.850 on bars, 9.90 on beam, and 9.90 on floor. Her performance throughout the season earned conference recognition as she was named to the first-team All-Pac-10 All-Around.
Matusik had a break out junior season as well, taking the title of "beam queen" for the season. Matusik earned three scores of 9.90 or better on the event, with a career high 9.925 at BYU (2/26). She also earned second place on beam at the NCAA Regional Championships with a score of 9.875, and was named to the first-team All-Pac-10 Beam Team. Lastly, Matusik was one of two conference athletes to be honored with the Pac-10 Sportsmanship Award for 2011.
A number of Wildcats were recognized by the conference throughout the season, including Matusik (Special Performance of the Week Feb. 21 - 27), Graham (Gymnast of the Week Feb. 7 – 13, and Mar. 7-13), then junior Aubree Cristello (Gymnast of the Week Jan. 31-Feb.6, and first-team All-Pac-10 All-Around), and Russell (Special Performance of the Week Jan. 24-30).
Look Out for New GymCats:
Arizona added a number of new faces this season, including Danielle Buchanan out of Lancaster, Calif., Allison Flores hailing from Addison, Ill., Edmonton, Alberta native Kristin Klarenbach, and Amber Wobma from Rockford, Mich.

Each week, head gymnastics coach Bill Ryden sits down to talk with us to analyze the previous week's meet. This Coach's Show is available for free via the All-Access tab on the website.

Then, watch for your questions in the weekly Coach's Show!
Pre-season Rankings:
The Arizona gymnastics team headed into the season ranked No. 19 in the 2012 Women's Pre-Season Coaches poll. The Wildcats were one of six Pac-12 schools to place within the top 25 in the prelim poll, with UCLA ranked No. 1, Utah ranked No. 5, Oregon State at No. 7, Stanford at No. 8, and Washington falling in at No. 16.

The only weather pattern change we have coming in the next few days, is a cool down to the mid to upper 70s Wednesday-Saturday.

Why no rain? High pressure is in control over our region over the next several days keeping us dry.
