Caparello: I Respect Kovalev's Power, Don't Fear It
by David P. Greisman
Blake Caparello knows what Sergey Kovalev has done to his past opponents. That doesn't mean Caparello is afraid of Kovalev's power or thinks the same consequence will come of him.
"I'm just confident in my ability," Caparello told reporters a week before his Aug. 2 fight against Kovalev. "To be the best you have to beat the best. Sergey's the best at the moment. People are just throwing out his name, but I don't see the phone ringing. We actually jumped at the opportunity, and we're very confident.
"You got to respect him," he said. "You got to respect every fighter you get in there with. A lot of people make the mistake of they fear. If you fear the power, you've lost the fight already. You've got to respect it, but you can't fear it."
Caparello says that Kovalev has some good tools and isn't just a fighter with "big, devastating power." That's not to say there aren't weaknesses he feels he can exploit in Kovalev.
He wouldn't say specifically what they are, but he was a little bit more open about what other opponents have not done.
"They haven't negated his power. They've sat in his power. They've given him the power," Caparello said.
That's not his style, he said.
"I like to be slick. I like the smarts of boxing," Caparello said. "And mentally, I'm tough. Even if he hits hard and you get hurt, physically you might get hurt but if you're mentally tough, you can get through it. It goes a long way."
He was then asked who has hit him the hardest.
"My mum," he said.

So our story is very long and drawn out but my question was this. My little man has never been on bubble cpap but for one day earlier. He's almost 4 months old and we're still in the NICU. The new doctor he has is one that really pushes babies to try and gives them a chance. Well we've been intubated for months in the beginning and then on Sipap and then had to be reintubated after a surgery and Pneumonia. We've been back on Sipap for almost a week now and he has just been average not really succeeding at it. So the doctor is now putting him on bubble cpap with a peep of 9. He thinks maybe he just doesn't like all of the pressures. He seems to be doing alright so far which is amazing..of course this was only an hour ago. I was just curious if any of your LO's seemed to do so well on bubble cpap after not doing so great on the regular Sipap/vent???
I guess I'm just looking for hope that he's magically just going to excel at this:) It's been an extremely long journey for us.

The biggest adaptation I have had to make in my life was moving to college. Not only was it totally different from high school in relation to the content of classes and homework, but also it was also completely different from my home and social life. This can lead to a lot of new stressors in your life, some positive, and some negative. You will find yourself living on your own, with new surroundings and new people. Also, this newfound freedom can force you to adopt a heavy financial burden. For the majority of you, this is something you have never experienced nor had to endure before. "Most students struggle, to varying degrees, with the move from high school to college." (Counselor's Corner, 1)
Generally, college classes are not that much more difficult than high school courses. The main difference is that in college, you have to do all of your homework outside of class. Unless you are a student athlete here at State, there is no study hall on campus. Instead, you will have to utilize the facilities here such as the library in your own time, and at your own free will, which requires a lot of personal discipline. Another big difference between high school academics and college academics is the importance of the test. Unlike in high school, where daily assignments can help to cushion a grade, the main source of grading in college is the test. With possibly only three tests per semester in certain classes such as geology, you will find yourself under a heavy responsibility to do well on each test. "According to a study released last week, students are not coping well with stress. A record 30 percent of freshmen reported feeling "frequently overwhelmed" by all they have to do." (Kates, 1)
Also, with all of the independence that you now have, homework and studying are not always going to be your first priorities. Personally, I would much rather spend time with friends playing sports, or

Yea I don't quite get that one myself, nice art direction though.
Apart from being hard to read, as Jagadeesh says, this is about losing vitamins: it's a peeler, taking things away: what does anyone do with peel apart from throw it away?
"Apple is rich in Vitamin A and Vitamin C. Vitamin A concentration is higher in the outer skin than the flesh. Like potatoes, Vitamin C concentration is higher just below the skin in apples also. Hence the skin of the apple should not be discarded. "
Hard to read and less vitamin A.

Maybe he should be Dick Clark's receptionist.
(SNL skit.)
This is a nice curve on the pitch.
Bill Amend needs to do a storyline where Peter comes out of the closet and dumps Denise…Newspaper comics today needs more gay characters!
Will the boy make it to first base? Will he score? Find out in Foul Ball 2: The Umpire Strikes Out.
He's annoying to EVERYONE, coach. Seriously, how long have you had this job?
Boy hits ball, boy walks after ball
pops ball in hole, puts on Green Jacket
It gets no better
I think Bill Amend just gave Hollywood an idea for next year's summer block buster movies.
Men have always had a love affair with their balls (um that is baseballs, basketballs, footballs…)
This is a nice curve on the pitch.
Peter should be describing the screwball, seeing as it takes one to know one…SNERK!
Bill Amend needs to do a storyline where Peter comes out of the closet and dumps Denise…Newspaper comics today needs more gay characters!
No, they don't. And, by the way, Denise hasn't been seen in this comic since the 1990s.
J.J. Abrams directs "Peter's Story – Into Dreckness."
I was just going to say, seriously, nkbush1787? I'm gay, and even I would object to making Peter, Paige, Andy, or Roger gay just for the sake of having a gay character in the strip. It would feel forced and inorganic — in other words, it would be the comic-strip equivalent of jumping the shark!
Besides, it seems to be against Bill's policy to let the characters develop at all.
Except its less boring to just watch the grass grow without those people walking all over it.
That applies to almost all comics, except a few like "For Better or For Worse".

Contacting the above phone number I reach Eli Taylor at or around 11:30am, he informed me right up front that he couldn't talk to me until I deposited the 800.00 into this account and he proceeded to tell me ways of making this payment to him, Western Union, Money Gram, or Bank of America. When I questioned him as to what all he was going to do for me, in the area of saving my home he stated everything on the list of the mailer and he exclaimed his prior work experience and said if I put the money in the bank to day he could start first thing Monday morning. I questioned him futher in the area of me being able to call my lender to verify if the foreclosure was stopped, and Mr. Taylor sure can call them and it should be done by 2pm or 3pm giving enough time to contact the lenders attorney.
At that time I told him that I'll call him back once I found a Bank of America, when I did he asked that I get a copy of the deposit and fax it to him, then I questioned him, why can't you see the deposit online and that's when he said yes I can see it online but we like to have a faxed copy on hand. I complied and asked the Teller to give me something to fax to him and I received the copy of the deposit slip and the hand written deposit slip via the Teller. I informed Mr. Taylor I only had 400.00 in cash with me and I would deposit the balance on Monday morning. He told me ok, I'll fax you the paper work over for you to complete and fax back to my office so I can start to work on it as soon as you make the deposit of the other 400.00. Monday morning I deposited the balance of the 800.00 and attempted to contact Mr. Taylor via the above phone number from 9:am and there was no answer until 11:am, and when he did answer the phone he told me he would start on my paperwork after making sure all the funds was there and he'd call me back in 30min after he was sure the funds were there. At that time I asked why? Because I faxed it and he could check online to see that I paid, he told me, he'd still have to check and would call me back in 30 min, then ended the call.
I tried calling him from 1pm Monday to no avail, he never answered the phone, but, he did call me back at 2pm with instructions to give him another 1000.00 dollars and he could get a retainer and hold off the mortgage company. I informed him I didn't have another 1000.00 to give him and he told me his fee was 800.00 to do what needed to be done. That's when he said he'd call me back.
I called and spoke with my lender who informed me that no one called them from National Financial Solutions and he'd never heard of them. My lender then followed up with the fact that no way were this company going to find me additional money, get me refinanced or re-do my loan in anyway before the close of business today and sounds as if I'd been scammed. While speaking with my leader on the phone Mr. Taylor did call back and he asked me if I had a pen and paper, I said yes, he told me to write this down go to office depot or office max and pick up Socrates Bankruptcy Kit then I questioned him as too why? Mr. Taylor said just do it then call me back, which I did, and he told me to sit down and do it and file my bankruptcy in court myself.
I informed Mr. Taylor I was not an attorney and he informed me I didn't need to be and he saved me thousands of dollars by doing it this way. I asked him is this what I paid him 800.00 for and he say hey, look I saved you a lot of money and yes then I asked if this is it and he said yes, and infact he had to get off the line and help other clients.
I've tried to call Mr. Taylor 30 or 40 times Monday and he never answered my call, I called him Tuesday and he spoke with me once only to tell me he wouldn't give me my money back and he felt it was right what he did and he felt good about it.
I have no other choice but to try to retrieve my money back from him through outside help, he won't answer my calls or return any of them. This man has to be stopped from doing this of this nature of taking people's last dollars in the time of need. This is fraud.

Moab is home to several of Utah's most diverse National Parks. Within minutes of town you will find yourself surrounded by out-of-this-world red rock landscape of Arches National Park. Less than an hour's drive will put you atop the mythical sounding Island in the Sky, a remarkable district of Canyonlands National Park that makes you feel as if you are on top of the world. The views from the Island encompass thousands of square miles of colorful canyons, mesas and buttes. The great scenery, however, doesn't end with our National Parks. Dead Horse Point State Park is a short drive from Moab and offers visitors amazing views of the snaking meanders of the Colorado River 2,000 feet below. Just 20 miles south of Moab are the La Sal Mountains, which are part of Manti-La Sal National Forest. Attaining heights of nearly 13,000 feet, these alpine mountains are the second highest mountain range in Utah. All of the amazing scenery in this part of the world is why Moab has such a rich history of filmmaking. However, seeing it on the big screen is one thing, experiencing it for yourself will fill you with enough memories to last a lifetime.
Moab's perfect climate has also made it a magnet for year round outdoor events and festivals, and the downtown business district has risen to the occasion with a great collection of restaurants, shops, and galleries. Moab's diverse cuisine will please any palate, from regional southwestern fare to world-class gourmet. Stroll through the downtown shops for a great selection of southwestern arts and jewelry, souvenirs, t-shirts, and much more. Those that love to walk, run, or cycle will love the Mill Creek Parkway, a paved pedestrian walkway that meanders through the heart of Moab.

The golfing world has some popular misconceptions which are very damaging to your game. The wrong information can make your slice or hook worse. While it's not your fault, unfortunately, you may be the victim of bad information. The good news is that you are about to receive correct scientific information. This will help you with either your hook or your slice. When applied correctly, you can eliminate either and start finding your ball on the fairway and the green more.
The wrong information: Many people will tell you that the clubface being open or closed at impact makes the ball curve. They will tell you a slice has an open clubface at impact and a hook has a closed clubface at impact. This is wrong. The clubface does not make the ball curve.
The correct information: The clubface at impact is actually responsible for the direction the ball starts. It is actually the path of your downswing that makes the golf ball curve right or left. Again, it is not the clubface that makes the ball curve; it is the path of the downswing makes the ball curve.
There is one critical rule to understand about swing path: The golf ball will spin the opposite direction of your downswing path. If your downswing is more toward right field, the ball will spin to the left. If your downswing is more toward left field, your ball will spin to the right.
If you slice, you should actually swing more out to the right in your downswing. If you hook, you need to swing more to the left in your downswing. Remember, the golf ball curves opposite of your downswing direction.
This is a principle of science so trust it. You will straighten out your shots and most importantly, you are now empowered with one of the correct concepts of ball flight.

Sometimes they tag along on sessions if we are going to a cool place or the mountains. Speaking of mountains, I am very much an indoorsy kind of girl. Air conditioning, comfy seating, plumbing, I am big fan of it all. So if I venture into the woods for a session with you, feel loved.
I do have a warning for those sessions, if I see a snake, or a bear, I am out. I am done. Session is over. We'll have a make up day. Luckily I have not had that happen, yet. I love those moments that create a funny story, I have so many of those with my clients and it makes us laugh whenever we look back on it. I just recently had a groom fall completely into a stream during a session! Luckily he had a second outfit, and we had a good laugh for a few weeks.

Band was GREAT, Chris garbled into the mic while talking and never really looked at the total audience. The stage lighting blinded the balcony patrons thru most of the show, very annoying. My guests also felt it was just an okay show.
star this review starred report as inappropriate
The show was very good. Chris Cross was excellent and his band was excellent. May have been a bit too long, but we all enjoyed it.
He is best known for his Top Ten hit songs, "Sailing", "Ride Like the Wind", and "Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)," the latter of which he performed for the film Arthur starring Dudley Moore and Liza Minnelli. "Sailing" earned three awards at the 1981 Grammy Awards Ceremony, while "Arthur's Theme" won the Oscar for Best Original Song in 1981. He is the only solo artist to receive all of the "Big Four" Grammy Awards (Best Record, Song, Album, and New Artist) in the same year.

VIOTTI: Violin Concerto No. 22 in A minor , G97 (New Digitally Remastered 2 CD set)
To play the media you will need to update yourFlash plugin.
Composed by Giovanni Battista Viotti (1755-1824). Instrumental Solo Part and 2 CDs. Published by Music Minus One (MO.MMOCD3114).
Item Number: MO.MMOCD3114
ISBN 1596151439. Soloist: Geoffrey Applegate, violin; Ensemble: Vienna Festival Orchestra; Conductor: Franz Litschauer.
This gorgeous classical concerto is a wonderful example of Giovanni Viotti's compositional style. Viotti, an Italian virtuoso violinist, was a prolific composer (he wrote 29 violin concerti, of which this is the most famous) who gained popularity in the court of Marie Antoinette and fled to England after the French Revolution. He had tremendous influence on the succeeding generation of composers, and is an immediate predecessor to the Romantic Era. A beautiful work for any classical violinist. Now digitally remastered, this classic MMO edition also includes a second disc containing a 20%-slower practice-tempo accompaniment!
Contains a printed solo part and a compact disc featuring the concerto in digitally remastered stereo, then again minus the solo violin part; and a second compact disc containing the complete version followed by a -20% slow-tempo version for practice purposes. Both versions feature fully indexed practice sections and orchestra entrances for easy learning and performance.

A Peace Corps volunteer's inspirational story about the power of small change
In 2001, Peace Corps volunteer Rajeev Goyal was sent to Namje, a remote village in the eastern hills of Nepal. Brimming with idealism, he expected to find people living in conditions of misery and suffering; instead, he discovered a village full of happy, compassionate people. After organizing the villagers to build a water-pumping system in the midst of the dangerous Maoist war that had gripped the country, Goyal learned how complex rural development truly is. He also witnessed how the seemingly lowliest villager can hold profound power to influence not only his or her own village but also the highest rungs of government.
Years after this experience, Goyal applied the lessons he learned in Namje to his work on Capitol Hill. Approaching Congress as if it were a Nepalese caste system, Goyal led a grassroots campaign to double the size of the Peace Corps. His unique approach to advocacy included strategically positioning himself outside the men's room of the capitol building waiting for lawmakers to walk out. As a result of his determined bird-dogging, Goyal managed to make allies of more than a hundred members of Congress and in the process, he ruffled the feathers of some of the most powerful figures in Washington. But due to his efforts, the Peace Corps was granted a $60-million increase in funding, the largest dollar-amount increase in the organizations history.
On this path to victory Goyal endured a number of missteps along the way, and, as he reveals, his idealism at times faded into fear, anger, and frustration. In this honest and inspirational account of his life as an activist, Goyal offers daring ideas for how the Peace Corps and other organizations can be even more relevant to our rapidly changing world. He urges environmentalists, educators, farmers, artists, and designers to come together and contribute their talents. Filled with history, international politics, personal anecdotes, and colorful characters, The Springs of Namje is a unique and inspiring book about the power of small change.

In the name of emotional well-being, college students are increasingly demanding protection from words and ideas they don't like. Here's why that's disastrous for education—and mental health.
Something strange is happening at America's colleges and universities. A movement is arising, undirected and driven largely by students, to scrub campuses clean of words, ideas, and subjects that might cause discomfort or give offense. Last December, Jeannie Suk wrote in an online article for The New Yorker about law students asking her fellow professors at Harvard not to teach rape law—or, in one case, even use the word violate (as in "that violates the law") lest it cause students distress. In February, Laura Kipnis, a professor at Northwestern University, wrote an essay in The Chronicle of Higher Education describing a new campus politics of sexual paranoia—and was then subjected to a long investigation after students who were offended by the article and by a tweet she'd sent filed Title IX complaints against her. In June, a professor protecting himself with a pseudonym wrote an essay for Vox describing how gingerly he now has to teach. "I'm a Liberal Professor, and My Liberal Students Terrify Me," the headline said. A number of popular comedians, including Chris Rock, have stopped performing on college campuses (see Caitlin Flanagan's article in this month's issue). Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Maher have publicly condemned the oversensitivity of college students, saying too many of them can't take a joke.
A new anatomical understanding of how movement controls the body's stress response system
Elite tennis players have an uncanny ability to clear their heads after making errors. They constantly move on and start fresh for the next point. They can't afford to dwell on mistakes.
Peter Strick is not a professional tennis player. He's a distinguished professor and chair of the department of neurobiology at the University of Pittsburgh Brain Institute. He's the sort of person to dwell on mistakes, however small.
"My kids would tell me, dad, you ought to take up pilates. Do some yoga," he said. "But I'd say, as far as I'm concerned, there's no scientific evidence that this is going to help me."
Still, the meticulous skeptic espoused more of a tennis approach to dealing with stressful situations: Just teach yourself to move on. Of course there is evidence that ties practicing yoga to good health, but not the sort that convinced Strick. Studies show correlations between the two, but he needed a physiological mechanism to explain the relationship. Vague conjecture that yoga "decreases stress" wasn't sufficient. How? Simply by distracting the mind?
Every year, hundreds of people attend the Oklahoma Full Auto Shoot, cultivating a love for assault weapons in an era of mass violence.
It was Saturday at the 16th-annual Oklahoma Full Auto Shoot and Trade Show, and I had my thumbs on the trigger of a Browning M1919, prepared to unleash hellacious destruction on an unsuspecting refrigerator.
The Oklahoma Full Auto Shoot is one of several "machine-gun shoots" around the country. For two days in June, hundreds of people traveled to Wyandotte, Oklahoma, for the opportunity to fire nearly every species of automatic weapon from the past century. There were UZIs and M16s, Barrett .50-caliber rifles, WWII-era belt-fed Brownings, and even a Minigun—a giant, chair-mounted cylindrical device powered by a car battery. As of 10 a.m., all 84 firing positions were trained downrange onto a hill stocked with junked cars and dead kitchen appliances, waiting for the starting signal.
One black woman tries to reconcile her faith with the institution's history of discrimination.
It's been six years since I became a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Each year has been a lesson in faith and doubt, stretching and engaging what it means to be black, a woman, and Mormon. The decision to join on my own was not an easy one. As the child of a Protestant mother and a father who converted to Islam in his teens, I was doing something unheard of in my family by becoming a Mormon. And as a black woman, I had a heightened awareness of what it means to potentially be the only black person in any given congregation in the United States.
As a child, I watched as preachers in my congregation espoused their deepest beliefs about God. They spoke to the horrors faced by black people in the United States in their dealings in life and death. There was intense power in their sermons, one that was complemented by the soft presence of a "Black Jesus," a savior who understood the plight of African Americans in word and form. He represented the long tradition of resistance within the black church to white-supremacist theology: Racialized violence in the United States was often supported by white Christians who recognized whiteness as good and blackness as evil. Within the walls of my congregation, blackness was not discounted, but embraced in all its various forms from the pulpit to the pews. Islam also informed my faith; I witnessed the immense devotion in my father's prayers and the care with which he kept his Koran. These two traditions of my childhood shared a reverence for and recognition of a version of God who is not racist.
How men and women digest differently, diet changes our skin, and gluten remains mysterious: A forward-thinking gastroenterologist on eating one's way to "gutbliss"
Robynne Chutkan, MD, is an integrative gastroenterologist and founder of the Digestive Center for Women, just outside of Washington, D.C. She trained at Columbia University and is on faculty at Georgetown, but her approach to practicing medicine and understanding disease is more holistic than many specialists with academic backgrounds. She has also appeared on The Dr. Oz Show (of which I've been openly skeptical in the past, because of Oz's tendency to divorce his recommendations from evidence).
Chutkan's first book comes out today. You might pick out an Oz-ian air to the title: Gutbliss: A 10-Day Plan to Ban Bloat, Flush Toxins, and Dump Your Digestive Baggage. Oz even endorses it on the back of the jacket: "Dr. Chutkan blasts away the bloat as she tastefully explains the guts of our problems."
Officials say they face a public-health emergency, and believe a batch of the opioid may be tainted with an elephant tranquilizer.
NEWS BRIEF Cincinnati is facing a public-health emergency, as an estimated 174 people overdosed on heroin in the last six days.
Police in the Ohio city are trying to find the source of the heroin batch. Tim Ingram, the Hamilton County health commissioner, told reporters Friday the number of hospital visits this week have been "unprecedented."
Officials are pointing to a potential cause of the overdoses, as the Associated Press reports:
Cincinnati City Manager Harry Black said authorities suspect carfentanil, a drug used to sedate elephants and other large animals, may be mixed in with heroin and causing the overdoses. The drug is 100 times more potent than fentanyl, which is suspected in spates of overdoses in several states.
Last month, carfentanil was discovered in the Cincinnati area's heroin stream, but many hospitals don't have the equipment to test blood for the previously uncommon animal opioid.
It happened gradually—and until the U.S. figures out how to treat the problem, it will only get worse.
It's 2020, four years from now. The campaign is under way to succeed the president, who is retiring after a single wretched term. Voters are angrier than ever—at politicians, at compromisers, at the establishment. Congress and the White House seem incapable of working together on anything, even when their interests align. With lawmaking at a standstill, the president's use of executive orders and regulatory discretion has reached a level that Congress views as dictatorial—not that Congress can do anything about it, except file lawsuits that the divided Supreme Court, its three vacancies unfilled, has been unable to resolve.
On Capitol Hill, Speaker Paul Ryan resigned after proving unable to pass a budget, or much else. The House burned through two more speakers and one "acting" speaker, a job invented following four speakerless months. The Senate, meanwhile, is tied in knots by wannabe presidents and aspiring talk-show hosts, who use the chamber as a social-media platform to build their brands by obstructing—well, everything. The Defense Department is among hundreds of agencies that have not been reauthorized, the government has shut down three times, and, yes, it finally happened: The United States briefly defaulted on the national debt, precipitating a market collapse and an economic downturn. No one wanted that outcome, but no one was able to prevent it.
What did Ernest Hemingway, Judy Garland, and W.C. Fields do to feel better after a night of overindulgence?
Playboy recently shared its colorful history of correspondence with gonzo legend Hunter S. Thompson. Amongst the letters and other notes in the collection was a wild cure for a hangover that suits the over the top writer's uninhibited style. The note reads:
P.S. -- inre: Oui's request for "my hangover cure" -- it's 12 amyl nitrites (one box), in conjunction with as many beers as necessary.
While the idea of poppers and beer soothing your sorry head might not be the right cure for you, fear not—we've uncovered 12 other hangover remedies from famous booze hounds. Click through to find out what Hemingway, Faulkner, and other big drinkers suggested after an evening of overindulgence.
New research recommends recruiting a wingman/woman with a complementary face.
Who should I hang out with if I want to look the most attractive? And how many of said people must I acquire?
The basic idea of research published this week in the journal Psychological Science is that our asymmetries and disproportionalities tend to "average out" amid a group of faces, and our weird little faces are perceived as slightly less weird.
Drew Walker and Edward Vul of the University of California, San Diego, did five experiments wherein subjects rated the attractiveness of people in photographs. Some people were pictured alone, and others were in groups. (Sometimes the "groups" were actually collages of people alone.)
In every case, for men and women, the people in groups got higher attractiveness ratings. Walker reasoned: "Average faces are more attractive, likely due to the averaging out of unattractive idiosyncrasies." They refer to this as the "cheerleader effect."
The political commentator may be more committed to the Republican nominee's platform than he is.
Donald Trump has just betrayed Ann Coulter. Which is a dangerous thing to do.
This week, Coulter released her new book, In Trump We Trust. As the title suggests, it's a defense of Trump. But more than that, it's a defense of Trumpism. Most Trump surrogates contort themselves to defend whatever The Donald says, no matter its ideological content. They're like communist party functionaries. They get word from the ideologists on high, and regurgitate it as best they can.
Coulter is different. She's an ideologist herself. She realized the potency of the immigration issue among conservatives before Trump did. On June 1 of last year, she released Adios America, which devotes six chapters to the subject of immigrants and rape. Two weeks later, Trump—having received an advanced copy—famously picked up the thread in his announcement speech.
In a StoryCorps animation, Patrick Haggerty remembers the remarkable advice he got from his dairy farmer dad.
