I hate how people think that because pac was knocked out by jmm that mayweather is just going to walk through him now. The reason why jmm does so well is because he fought him 4 times. 1st fight, jmm gets knocked 3 times. makes some adjustments and comes back stronger in the 2nd fight getting knocked down only once. He comes out of the 3rd fight with no knockdowns. And in the 4th fight, he not only gets a knockdown of his own but a knockout. I want mayweather to finally make this fight happen now thinking its going to be easy and get knocked out himself. Unbiasedly though, i would favor mayweather against pac. Mayweather basically does what jmm can with counter punching but better and faster which is nightmare style matchup against pac. The only way i see pac winning is by coming out aggressively from the opening bell. Mayweather tends to start off slow against people whose skills he respects(shane) while pac is usually a fast starter(hatton). If pac can apply intelligent early pressure i can see him being fast and strong enough to get the knockout but the longer the fight goes on and the more mayweather makes adjustments, the lower the chances of pac winning are. I see either a knockout win by pac in the 5-8 rounds IF he comes out aggressive but if not, which is more likely, floyd wins with a close decision.

The sad part of all this is that there is nothing in a fight with Manny Pacquiao aside from money.
Even before this Marquez win, when Floyd beat Manny, the pacterds would have said that Manny was passed it or too small.
There is no legacy or fame in this for Floyd.
Manny has been outboxed by a brawler and knocked out by journeymen twice.
There was nothing Floyd could have done that hasn't been done before.
Manny had a good run fighting carefully selected boxers coming off losses .. some at catchweights.
Then Manny made the mistake and bought into his own hype and fought two smaller guys who could move and box. There was just no way to justify draining them. That made the fights too fair.
The rest is history.
There will always be someone that haters say that a fighter won't fight.
They said Roy Jones wouldn't fight Dariusz Michalczewski.
They say that Cotto wouldn't fight Kostya Tszyu.
They said that Erik Morales ran from a rematch with Zahir Raheem.
They said that Lennox Lewis ducked Ike Ibeabuchi.
They said that Margarito ran from a rematch with Paul Williams.
They say that Tim Bradley wouldn't fight Amir Khan.
They say that Sergio Martinez could make SMW, but chooses to fight guys like Macklin and Barker instead.
At the end of the day, the fans really wanted to see Mayweather/Pacquiao. I know I did.
But at the end of the day, in the hearts of even the most diehard pacterd, the doubt that Pacquiao could win was already there. Its been there for years.
This win over Marquez didn't really prove anything except to reaffirm that doubt. This is the third match in which Pacquiao fought someone undrained and winning, and he looked pretty average in those fights.
I still would watch it, but Pacquiao's stock plummeted, regardless of how much respect fans still have for him. Respect was never a commodity used to sell fights. And I have a feeling that Arum will continue to obstruct the fight.
In fact, this loss works for Arum. Now with Manny falling from grace, Manny will be dependant on Arum now more than ever. Manny will need options and money. Arum will have his way with Manny now worse than before.
Manny should either get into a Mayweather match ASAP or retire.
What else is left?

It's been strangely subdued on these boards. Lots of activity but a weird sort of silence from most intelligent Pac fans. Just a couple idiots roaming

The real problem is that now the pac fans understand just why people had picked Floyd to beat Pac, they are calling for Pac to just retire. They would rather him walk away then to fight Floyd.
Would Floyd KO him, probably not but you can't turn a blind eye on the fact that Pac can't handle fighters with speed, movement and counter puncher abilities. Traits that set Mayweather well above every fighter active at the moment including JMM.
Again, Pac's problems to adjust and after seeing him fight JMM a 4th time just makes the predictions of many boxing fans more justifiable than ever at this point. But don't act like nobody had made the prediction of Floyd beating Pac something new. Floyd has always been the betting favorite since day 1 and nothing has changed besides the amount of excuses each side have made to not fight each other. However I bet 40 million sounds really nice to Pac right about now. Then again we all know Bob has other plans.

The Hobbs Squad has become the official tailgate party group of USD 460. Before each varsity home-game, The Hobbs Squad has been out in front of the stadium serving up food, drinks and laughs.
A core group of Hobbs Squad members, Logan Moulds, Cameron Juhnke, Andrew Dages, Josh Decker, Titus Ewert and Keegan LeFevre,
"Our goal was to make a group for tailgating and the student section," said Juhnke.
Before the football season started, the group got together to kick around ideas and names for the tailgating party.
"We had a few ideas, Scott McGehee came up with the Hobbs Squad," said Juhnke.
The students decided with the students section flagging, Swather fans needed a boost.
"The past few year support has been down, we are trying to rally that support," said Ewert.
The Hobbs Squad hopes to inspire fellow students and adults to be enthusiastic about supporting the Swathers.
"The games are more fun when you have fans yelling in the stands. The players love it. It's a fun time for everyone," said Juhnke.
The first Hobbs Squad gathering took place on Sept. 6 before the Halstead game. The theme for the event was Beach Party.

Mathieu Flamini's injury-time own goal put the final nail in the coffin of Arsenal's title hopes after gifting Swansea a 2-2 draw at the Emirates Stadium.
The French midfielder was simply jogging back as Wojciech Szczesny saved low from Leon Britton when the ball ricocheted off his legs and into the back of the net to break Arsenal hearts and gift Swansea a vital point in their fight against relegation.
The Gunners looked to have rescued the three points after going behind early to a Wilfried Bony header when Lukas Podolski came on to score the equaliser and then lay on a goal for Olivier Giroud within a minute.
But Swansea never gave up and managed to peg Arsenal back and steal a point from the Emirates.
The draw means Arsenal are now just six points ahead of Everton who have a game in hand in fifth place while Swansea go five points clear of the relegation places.
11' – BONY GOAL – Taylor crosses from the left and finds Bony who powers past Vermaelen to send a bullet header into the near post.
23' – BIG BREAK – Routledge carries the ball half the pitch before releasing Michu into the penalty area but he opts to cut back to Shelvey instead of shooting himself and extending the away side's lead.
43' – CAZORLA CHANCE – Cazorla shimmies on the edge of the area, leaves Chico on his backside before shooting but it is close enough to Vorm who makes a simple save.
73' – EQUALISER – Gibbs paces past Rangel to the byline and cuts back to Podolski who finishes with his left foot from close range.
74' – LEAD TAKER – Podolski turns provider as he races down the left and plays a lovely low cross to Giroud who taps home from just a yard out.
90' – DISASTER – Britton worms his way in to the box and forces a low save from Szczesny at his feet but the ball ricochets off Flamini as he was running back and ends up in the back of the net.
Wilfried Bony is the first player in 11 Premier League matches to score in the first half against Arsenal at home.
This is the first ever league draw between Arsenal and Swansea after ten games. Arsenal have won five and Swansea four.
This is the sixth time in seven matches that the away side in Arsenal vs Swansea matches have scored twice.
Flamini's 90th minute own goal is the ninth goal in the last 10 minutes of matches between Arsenal and Swansea, in just their last five games against each other.
Is Arsenal's assault on the title over? This was a must win game for Arsenal following their Chelsea drubbing and they failed to deliver. Now six points off Chelsea and three behind Man City who have two games in hand, it looks like the Gunners have missed out on their first title since 2003/04.
Wilfried Bony (Swansea): Worked tirelessly all match and caused the Arsenal defence all kinds of problems with his strength and hold-up play. More than deserved his goal after spending much of the game on his own up top.
Arsenal: Szczesny 6, Sagna 6, Mertesacker 6, Vermaelen 5, Gibbs 7, Flamini 5, Arteta 6, Oxlade-Chamberlain 6, Rosicky 6, Cazorla 6, Giroud 7.Subs: Kallstrom 6, Sanogo 6, Podolski 8.
SWANSEA: Vorm 7, Rangel 6, Williams 7, Chico Flores 7, Taylor 7, Britton 7, Shelvey 6, De Guzman 6, Routledge 6, Michu 6, Bony 9. Subs: Davies 6, Dyer 6, Hernandez 7.

Judge Approves $760M Deal Between Feds, Native American Farmers
Well, it's official.
The federal government is soon going to write a pretty darn sizable check to Native American farmers and ranchers.
A $760 million deal struck between the Department of Agriculture and the class was approved on Thursday by U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan, who called the terms of the settlement historic, fair and appropriate. Click here for the story from the BLT blog.
The suit alleged the government, for a whopping 26 years between 1981 and 2007, denied Native American farmers and ranchers the same opportunities as others to obtain low-interest rate loans from the government.
Cohen Milstein partner Joseph Sellers, lead class counsel, said in a statement today that final approval of the deal "marks the end of an unfortunate chapter in our nation's history where USDA's credit discrimination against Native Americans was the norm."
According to the BLT blog, thousands of farmers and ranchers are expected to receive compensation. The settlement sets out two tracks. One provides the ability to recover up to $50,000 and another that allows recovery of up to $250,000 based on evidence of economic loss.
Of course, don't think we've forgotten about the lawyers. The plaintiffs' team, which included lawyers from Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll, Jenner & Block, Patton Boggs and Colon, Frantz & Phelan, will split $60.8 million in legal fees.
Over the objection of the Justice Department, Sullivan today awarded the maximum amount allowed under the agreement.
"Suffice it to say to all, congratulations," Sullivan said from the bench today. At the end of the two-hour hearing, the judge stepped down and shook the hands of Justice lawyers, plaintiffs' attorneys and members of the class, reported the BLT blog.

The Islanders opened their five-game road trip on a sour note, falling 5-1 to the St. Louis Blues Thursday night at Scottrade Center.
Special teams decided the contest Thursday, as the Isles and Blues combined for four power-play goals, with St. Louis scoring three times on their first four advantages.
"We get into penalty trouble and bang-bang," head coach Jack Capuano said, referencing two quick power-play goals against in the second period. "We're having a tough time scoring goals… so we have to kill penalties."
Kevin Shattenkirk, Jay Bouwmeester, T.J. Oshie and Derek Roy led the Blues with two points each, as St. Louis worked its power play effectively and utilized its size, creating traffic in front of the Islanders net.
"They are a tough team to put yourself in a hole against," John Tavares said. "We've done that a lot in the last few weeks. We need more from everybody."
Bouwmeester broke the ice with a power-play goal 11:47 into the game, slapping a point shot through traffic and past Anders Nilsson. The Islanders generated several quality chances in the first – Michael Grabner hit the post on a partial breakaway – but the Blues finished the period ahead by one.
The game opened up in the second, as the teams traded penalties and subsequent power-play goals. Andrew MacDonald's blast, which cut through a Thomas Vanek screen and last Halak, resembled Bouwmeester's, but that was as close as the Isles came. Roy scored a power-play goal in tight 1:43 later and David Backes added another power-play tally 2:31 after that to make it 3-1.
"For a while we did a good job trying to respond, but we got ourselves into trouble" Capuano said. "It just seemed like a couple whacks in front of Anders and it's in the back of our net and then Backes shoots one top shelf and it's a two-goal game."
Magnus Paajarvi extended the Blues' lead to three with the first even strength goal of the game at 14:59 of the middle frame. Brenden Morrow rounded out the scoring with his fifth at 13:19 of the third period.
Nilsson made 21 saves in his third straight start, while Jaroslav Halak saved 22 Islanders shots for the win.
The Islanders head to California for their next three games, starting with the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday night. Puck drop from Staples Center is at 10:30 p.m. eastern time.

How the iPhone 5 Stacks Up
Apple showed key features of its new iPhone 5 at an event in San Francisco. Here is a quick comparison of Apple's new smartphone with its predecessor, the iPhone 4S.
Price: The iPhone 5 will start at $199 for a model with 16GB of storage and a two-year contract, the same starting price as its predecessor. The price on the iPhone 4S will drop to $99, with a contract. The new phone will be available starting Sept. 21 in the U.S., U.K. and a few other countries.
Measurements: The new phone is thinner and longer than the iPhone 4S but weighs less. It weighs 112 grams, compared with 140 grams.
Screen: The new iPhone has a 4-inch screen, measured diagonally, compared with 3.5 inches for the 4S. That's smaller than some of Samsung's and Motorola's newest Android phones. The screen has 326 pixels per inch, the same as the iPhone 4S, but because it is longer has 1136 by 640 resolution.
LTE: It has an LTE chip that will connect to the fastest 4G wireless data networks from Verizon AT&T and Sprint. The iPhone 4S connected to 3G data networks.
Camera: The new iPhone will have a camera with an 8-megapixel sensor, which is the same as the iPhone 4S, but adds features such as panoramic mode and improvements for taking pictures in low light. The front facing camera is now able to shoot 720p video.
Processor: It has a new Apple designed microprocessor, the A6, which Apple says is twice as the chip inside the iPhone 4S.
Battery: Apple said the battery on the new phone will last for 8 hours of talking on 3G networks or talking and browsing on LTE networks. The new battery lasts for 10 hours of Wi-Fi browsing. Apple also claimed 8 hours of 3G talk time with the iPhone 4S.
Microphones: The new iPhone has three microphones (front, bottom and back) and noise-cancelling technology, up from two microphones in the 4S.
Connector: A new smaller "Lightning connector" replaces the 30-pin connector that has been used to charge and sync iPhones. Apple will also sell a $29 adapter to plug the new phone into old accessories.
Siri: The voice assistant technology, which debuted with the 4S, is improved with additional language support and more info, like sports scores and movie listings.
Corrections & Amplifications: An earlier version of this post incorrectly said the iPhone 4S had just one microphone.

MIB3: Emma Thompson, Will Smith, Men in Black 3
Men in Black III, starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, opened with "solid," though hardly outstanding figures at the North American box office this weekend. I have "solid" in quotes because for an eagerly anticipated, highly expensive 3D movie at 4,248 locations, $55 million in three days (including a Sunday preceding a holiday) and $70 million in four days (Memorial Day is a major US holiday) simply isn't good enough. Not even close.
Box-office prognosticators were expecting the third Will Smith-Tommy Lee Jones pairing to bring in $80m-90 million. The above figures, studio estimates found at Box Office Mojo, fell way below expectations.
If Sony Pictures is to recover its Men in Black 3 investment – anywhere between $225m-$300m, plus another $100m-$150 million marketing / distribution expenses – that will be on account of MIB3's popularity abroad, where the film has raked in an estimated $132 million. Even then, the latest Smith-Jones pairing has a long box office road to travel, as on average studios get about 50-55 percent of a film's domestic gross and 40 percent of the overseas tally.
Directed by Men in Black / Men in Black II's Barry Sonnenfeld, MIB3's big feat at the domestic box office this weekend wasn't its grosses, but the fact that it managed to dethrone Joss Whedon / Chris Evans / Scarlett Johansson's The Avengers, which remained at the top for three consecutive weekends. Directed by Rupert Sanders, and starring Kristen Stewart, The Avengers' Chris Hemsworth, and Charlize Theron, Snow White and the Huntsman opens next weekend. We'll soon find out if Men in Black 3 will manage to stay on top for more than one single weekend.
MEN IN BLACK 3 way behind its two predecessors
Now, it would be ludicrous to say that MIB3 opened on a par with the two previous Men in Black movies. True, Men in Black took in $69 million after four days at 3,020 sites, including $4.81 million from Tuesday evening screenings (MIB opened on Wed., July 2, 1997), while Men in Black II brought in $73.43 million in its first four days at 3,557 locations (MIB2 opened on Wed., July 3, 2002). However, in 2012 dollars, MIB opened with approximately $117 million while MIB2 debuted with approx. $99 million.
Another minor detail: Neither previous MIB movie was in 3D, which can increase ticket costs by up to 45 percent. A third minor detail: Men in Black's reported budget was $90 million (approx. $129 million today); Men in Black II's was $140 million (approx. $179 million today). As mentioned above, Men in Black III's production budget hovered anywhere between $225m-$300 million.

MIB3: Will Smith, Men in Black 3
Why the underwhelming (estimated) Men in Black 3 opening-weekend performance at the domestic box-office? Barry Sonnenfeld's film has an acceptable 73 percent approval rating among Rotten Tomatoes' top critics (with a so-so average rating of 6.3/10). In any case, movies such as Men in Black 3 are review-proof because people who go to big action / horror / trademarked movies / franchises on the first weekend usually don't bother reading reviews.
What then? Well, as mentioned in a previous article, one possibility is that Will Smith hasn't made a movie in four years. And Smith's pre-MIB3 release, the Gabriele Muccino-directed $55 million-budgeted Seven Pounds, was a major box office disappointment, grossing only $69.95 million in North America. (Internationally, Seven Pounds performed better – though without reaching blockbuster status: $98.21m.)
Not helping matters is that Oscar winner Tommy Lee Jones (Best Supporting Actor for The Fugitive, 1993) hasn't had a box office hit of his own since Men in Black II a full decade ago. (Captain America: The First Avenger and No Country for Old Men weren't "Tommy Lee Jones movies.") Jones' highest-grossing vehicle since Men in Black II was The Hunted, a William Friedkin-directed, $55 million-budgeted 2003 release that took in a paltry $34.24 million domestically and a dismal $11.25 million internationally.
Men in Black III: After long hiatus
And finally, as mentioned above, the previous Men in Black movie was released ten years ago. Apart from something as iconic as Star Wars, which was resurrected in the late '90s, it's difficult to whip up interest for a long-dormant movie franchise.
Imagine if the gap between, say, the second and third Twilight movies, The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, had been ten years. However popular Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner may be with the Twilight crowd, there's a good chance that young fans of the series would have outgrown it, while potential new ones might never have heard of either Edward, Bella, and Jacob, or the trio of stars who brought them to life.
Indeed, even Star Wars would most likely have faced attendance issues had Return of the Jedi opened a full decade after The Empire Strikes Back.
Ultimately, it's worth remembering that as per the Motion Picture Association of America, approximately 30 percent of North America's "frequent" moviegoers are 17 and under. Ten years can represent, quite literally, a lifetime.
Now, what about Brad Bird / Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol? I'd say that the success of Cruise's fourth Mission: Impossible movie has less to do with the franchise itself than with the fact that MI4 earned excellent early buzz and highly enthusiastic notices: 97 percent approval rating at Rotten Tomatoes, with a 7.6/10 average. That has hardly been the case with MIB3.
In addition to Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, Men in Black 3 features Oscar nominee Josh Brolin (Milk), two-time Oscar winner Emma Thompson (Best Actress for Howards End, Best Adapted Screenplay for Sense and Sensibility), Jemaine Clement, Michael Stuhlbarg, Mike Colter, Nicole Scherzinger, Michael Chemus, and Alice Eve. Etan Coen (not to be confused with the Coen brothers' Ethan Coen) wrote the MIB3 screenplay.

NAPA -- Are the Seahawks crazy for signing Terrell Owens?
Raiders quarterback Carson Palmer doesn't think so. He even put in a good word for Owens with Pete Carroll, Seattle's head coach and his former coach at USC.
"Coach had reached out to me a couple times," Palmer said Tuesday. "Just knowing coach's style and the way he goes about leading his team, I just thought T.O. would be a great fit."
Owens played his final NFL season with Cincinnati with Palmer as his quarterback, catching 72 passes for 983 yards and nine touchdowns, averaging 13.7 yards per catch.
"I really enjoyed playing with him," Palmer said. "It was a great relationship and we continued to work out afterwards. (I) didn't have anything negative to say about T.O. It was a great relationship when I was there."
Palmer said he thought Owens would "fit in really well with (Carroll's) style, and I think they'll have a lot of success together."
Asked if Owens wanted to come to the Raiders, Palmer said, "He was looking for a job anywhere. I know he's worked extremely hard to come back from the injuries he's had. And he was looking for a spot anywhere he could go."

Is football in India having a cricket moment? This maybe a good time to ask because of the ongoing Euro championship and with no cricket around for sometime, though the question does surface every time we are in the thick of a major international football tournament.
With the Euro among us, you will notice a spring in the steps of the colleague with a constant frown in office, feel the extra emphasis on deadlines by the boss or in the case of this correspondent, hear the lament of the editor who has to be away when football makes it to the cover of ET on Sunday.

Strength and Skill Quotes in Twilight
How we cite our quotes: (Chapter. Paragraph)
Quote #10
Carlisle, Emmett, and the others turned in the same direction, hearing sounds of passage much too faint for my ears. (17.344)
The Cullens have very sensitive hearing, like many non-humans in the animal kingdom, including dogs. This is yet another skill vampires have that makes them dangerous predators.
Quote #11
I guessed Jasper was using his peculiar gift to control the situation. (18.15)
Jasper can manipulate emotions. He uses this skill to ease the tension of the situation when the human-eating vampire coven appears.
Quote #12
[Laurent to the Cullens:] "You can't bring him down. I've never seen anything like him in my three hundred years. He's absolutely lethal. That's why I joined his coven." (19.106)
James is incredibly skilled at tracking and killing his prey. Though all vampires are proficient predators, James seems to be a step above everyone else.

Imagine listening to a children's book being read to you while you are at home cooking dinner. Imagine enjoying a fairy tale with your children before getting ready for bed. The Library's Dial-a-Story program is a free, 24/7 service, and all you need to do is to lift the telephone handset and dial.
"Customers can listen to a story in two ways," says Nancy Stegeman, Central Library youth associate. "They can phone in (816.701.3456) or they can access the recording on the Kid's Page of the library website [2]. On average, the Dial-A-Story line receives 40-50 calls a day."
The program kicked off in the early 1990's when the children's librarians started to record stories for listeners. At first, it was primarily youth services staff that did the recordings. However, over the years, Dial-A-Story participants have included library staff from other departments, and many community members, including local celebrities on special occasions. Sometimes teachers or parents have asked to record for the line.
"One time, we had a pediatrician who took some time off from her busy schedule to record for us. We really appreciate the fact that the community came together to participate in this special program."
The Dial-A-Story program has grown in popularity, and from one generation to the next.
"It's fun when customers come into the library and recognize the voice of a librarian reader they have heard on the line," Stegeman continues. "One volunteer reader liked listening to Dial-A-Story when she was a child and now in her twenties, wanted to come in and become a reader herself."
Stegeman is responsible for scheduling readers and helping to select books for the line. The team's rule is to choose the book that is available in the Library's card catalog in case the listeners enjoy the book so much they want to come in to a library branch and borrow the item.
"The stories are changed about once per week, and last usually between 3 and 8 minutes. They are geared toward 3 to 10-year-olds, but people of all ages like to listen."
In the spirit of the Big Read celebration [3] that is going on this month, Dial a story is participating by featuring books that are familiar folktales written with a Western flair, inspiring our librarian readers to read with a twang in their voice!
Listen to this week's pick, Cindy Ellen: A Wild Western Cinderella written by Susan Lowell here [2].

It's just two days away from Independence Day, and State Fire Marshal Director Richard Miller said not every fireworks tent has been inspected.
"It's been a big challenge," Miller said.
Miller said that's because he only has about seven inspectors for the entire Lansing area.
"Our goal is to probably have all the tents inspected by Wednesday, so that's the big push for us," Miller said. "That's really huge for us."
The checklist inspectors take with them is also huge - that's if and when they show up. Vendors must comply with everything on the list or face possible penalties.
"The inspector checks for all the safety," Miller said. "He makes sure there are the proper number of exits, make sure there's no vehicles parked [too close], make sure all the electrical is up to code, making sure there's fire extinguishers, making sure their certificate is posted, and making sure it doesn't look like they're selling to minors, because you have to be 18 years old to purchase fireworks in the state."
Tent manager Robert Allen has done all that and more, including posting prominent signs with the age restriction, no smoking signs, and cones near every stake used to hold up the tent; however, after all of this, he still hasn't been visited by an inspector.
"What was frustrating for us is that we went through the hard work, we got the attorneys on board, made the calls to the state to make sure we complied, and then you know, competitors and other people didn't do that same," Allen said.
According to Miller, some of those competitors have been shut down. Law enforcement had to get involved, their merchandise was confiscated, and litigation is currently underway.
"There are people that have bootleg tents and sights set up, we can monitor that as best we can through our complaint department," Miller said.
Allen feels like the state just took on too much too soon.
"I think that it was very overwhelming for the state to be able to monitor so many," Allen said. "So that left us with a big question mark, should we have followed all the rules? And the answer at the end of the day is yes."
Allen oversees multiple tents around the state. Inspectors did make it to one of his in Jackson, and he said they told him it's the best they've seen. He said he's concerned about the inconsistencies with the system.
"As soon as we're all on board together, the cities, the states, and even us who have tents, I think that we'll be able to interpret the rules together, have one understanding, and then it can be safe for not only our community, but for communities that these tents are going in," Allen said.
Miller said they hope to learn from this experience and create a more timely schedule next year.
For now, Miller recommends customers check to see if a vendor is registered with the state before making any purchases.

As for men's gear, Speed and Strength has the Black Nine shoes ($99.95), which may be the best option for riders who want to be safe but also want to wear their Chucks.

Robots – Coming To Take Jobs Near You
Posted on Chris Poindexter | NO COMMENTS
It was almost a right of passage for millions of young people in high school and college that your first job was one flipping burgers. It was also a fall back job later in life if your career as a photographer, musician or artist was a little slow getting off the ground and you needed to supplement your income.
In Asian countries the equivalent would be a noodle peeler, someone who shaves noodles from a larger piece of dough and drops them in boiling water. Now it seems that both noodle peelers and burger flippers have something in common besides low wages: Robots are coming to take your jobs away.
The robot noodle shaver was invented by Chinese restaurateur Cui Runguan and looks a little like a Power Ranger without legs. You can get your own noodle shaving overlord for a cost of around $1,600 (USD) and the angry looking noodlebots are rolling out of the factory by the thousands. Over 3,000 restaurants are now saying domo arigato to Mr. Roboto in Chinese.
Robot noodle maker in operation.
When it comes to burgers the robot revolution is a little closer to home. A company called Momentum Machines in San Francisco is fielding a robotic burger maker than can spew out 360 burgers an hour, all custom made to the customer's specifications, including custom blends of different types of ground meat. It slices tomatoes and pickles on the fly but no word yet if the machine is capable of connecting to Skynet.
Another robot designed to assist sushi makers can crank out those little rice balls by the thousands, leaving the more important tasks to an actual sushi chef.
Like the sushibot many machines are only there to assist humans with some of the more repetitive tasks and that can reduce stress on the human component of the equation. The HAMDAS-R, a robot made by Japanese company Mayekawa, is a machine that debones hams using a mechanical knife guided by x-ray images. There's a plot for a future horror movie in there somewhere.
Anyway you automatically slice it, robots are coming for your entry level job. I had always assumed that robots would have done away with almost every low-skill repetitive job by now, but not quite. We got cheated out of flying cars but it appears the robot revolution will continue replacing mere humans.
While resistance is futile the good news is even the burger making machine will need someone to clean it once in awhile.

UPDATE: "The Flash" Hasn't Cast Savitar, Says Berlanti
TV, Comic Books
Inside this episode! Does Wolverine & Jubilee #1 deliver the promise of a fantastic mini-series…and can it live up to that great cover? Is Young Justice #0 better or worse the cartoon? Is it worth investing in if you like the show…or if you hate the show? Listen and find out! For our hot topic we talk about the Selina Kyle casting of Anne Hathaway (and Tom Hardy as Bane) for the next Batman movie…and all the chatter that came with the announcement. We've got week two of our new feature – CHICK OF THE WEEK – who will she be?! Here's a hint…we loved her book this week, a whole lot. Plus our picks of the week…but since everyone picked the same book, Maddy talks about some hilariously brilliant Kate Beaton "Adventures of Sexy Batman" strips that went up on Hark A Vagrant! this week…they are worth their weight in gold…three words…Batman Assless Chaps!
Links to some other stuff we talked about: Greg's review of Moving Pictures. Catherine Deneuve in The Hunger. Though Catwoman shouldn't just be about being sexy, if you doubt Anne Hathaway as Catwoman for lack of sexiness? I dare you to click that link!
3 Chicks Review Comics is a podcast featuring female comics lovers and bloggers Sue from DC Women Kicking Ass, and Maddy from When Fangirls Attack! along with me, Kelly Thompson. Tune in weekly to CSBG Tuesdays at 2pm as we review comics, and discuss hot topics of the week. Don't forget to subscribe to our cast via iTunes, so you never miss an episode (the subscribe button is on the main page on the bottom right). In addition to the blogs above, you can also follow us all on twitter as well: Kelly, Maddy, and Sue. Special thanks to Nik Furious for our awesome 3 Chicks theme song.
*As always beware of spoilers if you haven't read the books in question!
Hisako (Armour) was pissed off at Jubilee because she was responsible to a certain extent for Xarus's (Dracula's son) invasion of Utopia (the island where all the mutants live). Don't think she has any personal beef.
Another great podcast.
The discussion about the importance of female characters' sexiness reminded me of some of the comments I read in response to this Robot 6 post about Kate Beaton's Sexy Batman:
Sean T. Collins said in the post that the comic revealed the "how totally idiotic it is for female superheroes to constantly be shown doing the exact same thing," which a few people took issue with, going as far as to claim that, "Well, the sexualization of men is exactly the same as it is with women" in comics, 'cause, you know, they were tight clothing or something.
So what's interesting to me is that not only is this such an obvious and overt problem with comics (and I guess culture in general), but a lot of men are apparently completely blind to it and are able to convince themselves that there is no discrepancy. It's kind of mind-boggling to me.
were > wear
you should check out Anne Hathaway in the movie "Havoc," she's pretty intense in that, kind of an aggressive "bad girl" role. i'm still all about Mila Kunis, though.
what about Naomi Watts?!?!?
i'm a dude and i think a lot about the focus on beauty being women's main (or only) value point, even though obviously you'd know way more than i do, being a woman. it's really sad though, yeah.. i guess i don't have anything worthwhile to say about it, it's a pretty obvious batch of problems and you guys laid it all out well.
Catwoman is totally going to get creamed in Dark Knight Rises, let's face it. XD. i think i said something about the Barbara Gordon absence on the Awesomed By Comics 'cast, deja vu, but i think that aspect is some thing symptomatic of people's obsession with father/son relationships. like fathers and daughters aren't seen to have a real deal, serious, unbreakable bond, but oh no if the SON, the HEIR, is being threatened, omg.
you guys lost me a bit with the continuity talk.
i like how Sue refers to Catwoman as not a fictional character compared to the very fictional Rachel Dawes. hahaha.
As a Hispanic male, it does not bother me at all that Tom Hardy was chosen to portray Bane. I loved him in Inception and I've heard great things about him in Bronson, so I'm satisfied with Mr. Hardy as an actor. I understand that some might care about the role of Latinos in the media, but it's not something I yearn for in my entertainment. I've not read one issue of Jaime Reyes as Blue Beetle. I barely watched Battlestar Galactica, but really appreciated the Adama lineage by the time I delved into Caprica. More often than not, I actively dislike Hispanic cats in the media because I don't like what they put out. Not to say that a great Salma Hayek or Penelope Cruz film doesn't make me smile. It's nice to see someone from my racial background or cultural heritage, but it's not necessary.
Part of me thinks that a factor in the white-washing of Bane is that the Nolan redesign of the character will not have the Luchador mask. It's going to be interesting to see what Nolan does with this character.
@ross i like how Sue refers to Catwoman as not a fictional character compared to the very fictional Rachel Dawes. hahaha.
Oh, you know what I meant! But I have to say I laughed when I heard myself say it!
Great podcast Chicks!
Love the Selina discussion… My first reaction Hathaway was a slightly positive "that's interesting." The more I think about it, the more I can see it. She's definitely has the acting chops to pull off a complex Selina Kyle, which is what we'll hopefully get if he gives her the Harvey Dent/Two-Face treatment. At least I hope she gets equal characterization building along with Bane.
The thing about Selina is that her sexiness isn't just how she looks in a catsuit. She challenges and holds her own against the Bat and the insanity of Gotham in her own way and on her own terms. The confidence, intelligence and resourcefulness she exudes (when written well) to do so is tremendously sexy, compelling and should just smolder. They rightfully see something in one another that others don't, despite their flaws. It's part of their magic. I'd love to see Selina's mask in Gotham society, much like Bruce Wayne. I've always found the Selina/Bruce counterpoint to Catwoman/Batman as fun.
What I don't want to see is the Frank Miller prostitute origin, I'd rather some other compelling trauma or incident put her on her path to being Catwoman.
Some of issues with Wolverine & Jubilee are addressed in the book.
For readers that don't know what Pixie can do, Pixie's teleporting is shown off before the rock smashing. You've got a panel of Pixie glowing, telling Jubilee to catch her, and saying "Sihal Novarum Chinoth!". The next panel is Pixie standing in the distance, and the start of Jubilee's rush forward screaming that she hates teleportation. With the rock itself, you've again got a glowing Pixie, and her speech bubble (over two panels) is the same gibberish phrase as before, except without spaces between the words (because she's rushing it for obvious reasons.)
It could have been made slightly more obvious, though, if you had a panel afterward showing Pixie in the distance. But considering how fast Jubilee can move and how angry she is, Pixie would have to be pretty stupid to have teleported to anywhere still even remotely near to Jubilee.
As for the dead people in the storage container, if you really want to know the answer, it appears to be spoiled in the "Next Issue" description on the page after the story ends.
For Jubilee and Armor, the "Previously" mentions vampires attacking Utopia and Jubilee is now a vampire. We are told that the treatment isn't a cure, so she's staying a vampire. It presumably isn't just Armor that has issues with her, considering that she tells Emma that everyone hates her, and Scott had earlier wanted to keep her in the cell. She tells Pixie that everyone is afraid of her. It might have helped if we were shown more people who were actually upset with having a vampire still in their midst, but every character present is pretty much there for a different point-of-view. Armor just happened to be the choice for the "Vampires aren't welcome" attitude. (While Cyclops says that Wolverine hates vampires, Wolverine has the more important "Jubilee is important, and I'm going to help her" attitude, and thus can't be shown getting upset at her out of nowhere.)
I assumed you guys might touch on the Wonder Woman show being given another chance by NBC. I've left some ideas on how to approach it.
I think they need to aproach Ww in a less direct way. I wouldnt call the show WW. I'd call it themyscira. Make it a fascinating look at the Island where she's from. She can follow some rogue amazons to L.a to stop them from taking over. She should have skill as a fighter as well. I definately would not try to hard to get guys or comic fans to watch. You have to make it enjoyable for woman to watch. Market it where potential female viewers might be found. I've heard Incredible hulk tv show fans were mostly woman. And smallville and Lois and clark fans mostly dont read comics. I also would make the viewing audience wait a long time to see her in the famous outfit. People might get mad, but it worked for Smallvile. Oh, and Superhero cameos, lots of them. I wasnt interested in Smallville for years, but the cameos hooked me, and the stories kept me.If it does well, fanboys will come, kicking and screaming, but they will come.
Hey great podcast. I'd be interested in hearing the group's thoughts on Terry Moore's Echo some time. I've been reading it since issue #1 and have always found the story and cast interesting.
Of course men weren't saying whether Christian Bale was sexy enough for Batman- at least not the heterosexual males. I do think people may have thought he didn't fit the look of Bruce Wayne, but we've had so many different actors playing Wayne/Batman that I think it wasn't a big deal at all by that time.
As for Catwoman, Anne Hathaway I think she was so scrutinized because a) the line of Catowomen (even the bad one, you know who that is) are STONE COLD FOXES b) people really haven't seen her films, like Havok, Devil Wears Prada, etc. and c) of course, all men are pigs.
I will admit that I went straight to looks when I read the announcement. I don't like Anne Hathaway's nose, but that's funny, because I don't like Christian Bale's nose either! So that made me calm down a bit, and then I thought abut all the GREAT casting done on Nolan's Bat films and that calmed me down more. Then I thought about how far Anne Hathaway has come since she was in kid's films. She's a good actress, and I would do a triple head turn if she walked by me, for sure.
I don't like that they took the ethnicity away from Bane, but what can you do? I think it would have been cool to have a villain that's not white.
It's way too soon to tell how Nolan/Hardy will portray Bane, but I do wonder if there is a concern about making the villain Latino while everyone else, Batman, Gorden, Kyle, etc, is white.
I think people are more interested in if the film will be good and not Bane's ethnicity. I bet a lot of people don't know Bane's background, other than he's a brute who broke Batman.

Macho Man Randy Savage — one of the greatest wrestlers of all-time — died today in a car accident in Tampa, Florida … TMZ has learned.
TMZ spoke with Randy's brother, Lanny Poffo, who tells us the wrestling legend suffered a heart attack while he was behind the wheel around 10 AM … and lost control of his vehicle. …
The Associated Press is reporting out of Clearwater, Fla.:
The Florida Highway Patrol says in a crash report that the 58-year-old former wrestler — whose legal name is Randy Mario Poffo — was driving a Jeep Wrangler when he lost control in Pinellas County around 9:25 a.m. The Jeep veered over the raised concrete median divider, crossed over the eastbound lanes and collided head-on with a tree.
Police say he may have suffered a "medical event" before the accident, but the report did not elaborate, and it said officials would need to perform an autopsy to know for sure.
The report confirms that the driver was the pro wrestler known as Randy Savage. A woman in the vehicle suffered minor injuries.

Who, What, Where, Now!
And now for a different kind of coach
Life Coach to speak at Zenergy on Nov. 19
Denise Gillingham, a Sun Valley resident, is a tall drink of delightfully fresh water.
One of the few life coaches in the Wood River Valley, she earned her masters in social work from Columbia University in New York.
Gillingham recently returned to the area after almost a year living in France with her twin daughters. She first came to Sun Valley for Memorial Day weekend in 1996 to visit her future husband, Gary Gillingham, an on-location movie controller/accountant.
"He had a condo in Sun Valley," she said. "This was his heaven. The move here wasn't deliberate. It was gradual. We had an apartment in L.A., and then we were bouncing around Europe on film locations."
The couple spent two years together in Prague with their eight-month-old twins, shooting "Shanghai Knights" and "Hellboy."
The film schedule kept them on the move. After Prague, the family returned to Sun Valley for most of six weeks and then headed off to London for eleven months to shoot "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy." After another spell in central Idaho, they picked up and moved again to France to work on "A Good Year." The daughters were four at the time.
Gary Gillingham had been diagnosed with ALS ("Lou Gehrig's Disease") prior to the work in France, and in 2006, he died from the devastating illness. During her husband's illness, Denise also became seriously ill. And it was her oncologist who suggested she speak with someone who had the same diagnosis for support.
"I knew I wanted to get credentialed in life coaching," she said. For her, talking with a fellow cancer patient inspired her to work to help others who are also suffering. Last November, she started taking life-coaching classes in Paris.
The girls stayed with friends in Aix en Provence, where they were living in an apartment rented to them by an English woman who is a professor of linguistics at Cambridge University. Denise met her in the building's laundry room.
"She wrote her doctoral thesis on psychological changes that occur when people speak more than one language," Gillingham said, laughing. "The girls went through second grade in two different French schools. They each had their own circle of friends and now speak fluent French."
Gillingham returned to Sun Valley this summer, and she plans on staying. She calls herself a co-active coach, meaning that the "relationship is one in which the coach and client are active collaborators on the client's agenda."
She will lead a free "Emotional Intelligence" presentation at Zenergy, at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 19 on "relationships both professional and personal," she said. "IQ can't be changed but 'EQ' can be improved at any age. We'll talk about how to get the competitive edge in a non-competitive way."
Sun Valley Magazine encourages its readers to post thoughtful and respectful comments on all of our online stories. Your comments may be edited for length and language.
I have spent time with Denise Gillingham and what sets her apart from other coaches, or counselors, is her engaging personality and the ability to simply listen. I think there is something very attractive about people who can actually listen to others with more than a jejune or ostentatious display of attentiveness. It is a gift that Ms. Gillingham has used to enrich my own sense purpose and wellness; and for that, I am thankful.

Thank you. I would encourage you to go for it. However, I must warn you........you may become addicted like many of us. I got the basics down and jumped into Laura Nelkin's class Mastering Lace Shawls. I was quite adventurous but with years of crochet under my belt, I was familiar with working with yarn. Plus, my desire to knit was very strong. With as talented as you are, I encourage you to try it. YouTube has some excellent tutorials as well. Lots of information out there.
A truly beautiful garment! Ydemark, you have a great eye and a marvelous sense of design and Beauty*!*
Why, thank you Scarlett007. That is so kind of you to say. I am truly enjoying learning new skills.

Mean Street: Hey, Tea Party — It's Washington, Not Wall Street
Hey, Tea Party. You see it coming, don't you? Washington is setting up Wall Street as the fall guy for all its own stupidities.
That's what Washington's cockamamie plan for a new "fee" on the banks is all about.
Don't be fooled. This "fee" is nothing more than Washington fighting populism with even more populism. It reveals just how desperate and cynical your politicians have become.
And unless you're keen to give government even more control over your life, you'd be crazy to buy what Washington is selling.
Now, nobody is saying that you should like Wall Street. I've spent most of a prosperous career there — and it's hard even for me to like it.
It is self-serving. It is full of greedy, overpaid people. It did contribute mightily to last year's economic collapse. And you, the U.S. taxpayer, did bail it out. All true.
But in America, isn't a deal, still a deal?
The $700 billion TARP bailout from October 2008 was just that — a deal. It was a deal between Congress, the U.S. Treasury and Wall Street to save our banks and our economy.
No doubt it was a messy affair, fraught with ugly conflicts and choices. The Treasury secretary had been CEO of Goldman Sachs. The President of the NY Fed was on his way to be our next Treasury secretary. But Hank Paulson, Tim Geithner and Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke did their best in coming up with the deal.
And here's the main thing — the most important thing for you and the American economy — the deal worked. In fact, it worked far better than anyone dared hope.
And now because it worked so well — and the banks are stupidly but freely paying bonuses — the government wants a do-over. Big bonuses in hard times just make the politicians look bad.
Only the government can't re-cut the deal because almost all the big banks have already lived up to their end of it. The government has gotten back $165 billion or two-thirds of its investment in the banks — and earned an 8% return.
But for the White House, a deal can't stand if it ends up losing Democrats lots of votes. So it's time to invent a "fee" on the banks "to help recoup losses from TARP and reduce the deficit." Supposedly, that will get the government another $120 billion – the monies the Treasury thinks TARP will end up costing the taxpayer.
Is this $120 billion based on TARP losses in AIG or the banks? Or is the "fee" on the banks how the White House intends to recoup the $100 billion or so, we've poured into GM, Chrysler, GMAC and Chrysler Financial?
We don't know yet — because we have no details. But it's hard not to be suspicious when the government invents a special corporate tax, calls the tax a "fee" and then dresses it up as means to "recoup losses and reduce the deficit".
After all, this is the same government that just lifted its $400 billion loss limit on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Washington's favorite playthings. It's the same government that has spent $787 billion in stimulus money with little to show for it. And it's the same government that is currently running $1.4 trillion annual budget deficits.
The truth is — if the government wants to just expropriate $120 billion from the shareholders of our nation's banks, it should just say so.
But then again, money is not the point of the whole "bank fee" exercise. This is about politics. This is about politicians in Washington re-directing your anger towards Wall Street so that it doesn't end up where it really belongs — right on top of them.

Brilliant: Milton Friedman on Consumer Freedom
This brilliant Milton Friedman Q&A holds all sorts of lessons for today's debates about consumer freedom and health care, as well as implications for our Free to Choose Medicine project. Friedman is asked in it to respond to a query from a young man (wrongly identified as Michael Moore — or perhaps the uploader's intention was just to note the similarity in views) about the decision Ford made regarding an automobile which could have increased consumer safety. Friedman responds by noting that the real principles involved here are ones of transparency and liberty, empowering consumer choice — "would you pay more to increase your safety?" — and makes several key points which illustrate the importance of these decisions. Watch and learn.
