What do readers think of the book?
Donna says: As a mother of three with one more on the way, I didn't think there was really a great deal more to know about the wonders of pregnancy - how wrong was I?!! The content of this book is brilliant; the way it is seperated into weekly facts about your pregnancy, symptoms you may or not be experiencing, actual quotes from Netmums themselves and then interactive quizzes and checklists kept you interested, even if you had actually passed that particular stage of pregnancy or hadn't reached that stage as yet. I'm about 20 pages from the end of the book at the moment and that's only because I keep going back and reading over specific bits again which relate to my particular stage of pregnancy! It's a brilliant bedtime read, most informative and I would imagine would have been a great source of comfort had I been experiencing some of the downsides we suffer and that are covered within the book.
Clare says: I really love the bits where people have told us about personally experiences... it's easy to follow and understand and I really reccomend it to anyone who's pregnant.. its really great.
Sanja says: I enjoyed every page and even though most of the things I already read about from other books and the internet were covered, Netmums edition certainly had information I have not come across before. I very much like the facts pieces and comments from other mums, it was interesting to see how different women respond to this thing we all have in common. The quizzes were a bit tricky as I was already starting my last trimester but none the less, I did answer all the questions and referenced back to certain stages of pregnancy to see how things have progressed from day one. I would certainly recommend the book to all mums-to-be, especially first time mums like myself who have a lot to learn and much to prepare for when their baby finally decides to make an appearance It's an easy, fun, informative read and packed with useful information for all the mums-to-be and dads too! I am looking forward to the rest of the book and all the things I will learn from it that will help me understand the pregnancy a lot more and help me to be prepared for the Big Day as much as possible. Thanks again to Netmums for the great book and yes please, keep them coming. xx
Gemma says: My first thought was, i know all about being pregnant as its my 2nd time and i read LOADS of books with my first but i must say after reading the netmums book from cover to cover i would really recommend it. It is very 'real' with all the annecdotes from other mums and pregnant women. Its not a 'preaching' book telling you what to do. All the facts are very interesting and written in a light hearted humerous way. I also learnt some new things as with my 1st pregnancy I suffered loads with backache and pelvic pain and never did anything about it but it mentions in this book about it and gives good advice. Very well recommended, I'm gonna pass it onto my newly pregnant friend to share
Michelle says: I love the other mum's experiences and they have even given me some advice. It is by far the best book I have read (and I have read a few!)
Laura says: The content in the book was excellent, picked up a lot of pointers, tips and hints and learnt a lot. My favourite parts were the advice sections from other Netmums members which gave some real practical advice and "been there done that, survived it" stories which really made me feel more positive about certain things!!
Helen says: This is a fantastic book. Every part of it is approachable. Much more so than any other pregnancy book that I have looked at or read. [Unlike others] It is not patronising, condescending or snooty. It is fantastically down-to-earth and supremely approachable. I started out reading a few bits from the 29 weeks onwards section (I am 32 weeks now) then started flicking back through the book and ended up pretty much reading it from cover to cover!! I have learnt so much more from this one book than I ever did from the umpteen magazines I bought during my first pregnancy and the snotty What to Expect book that I was lent. I love the friendly manner in which the facts are delivered and especially the testimonials from all the mums.

What do readers think of the book?
Julie says: This is a lovely easy to read book, the kind of thing you can pick up and read a bit while the kettles boiling or you are feeding! It's in easy month by month format, with lots of comments by mums that remind you that whilst being a mum is fantastic not every day will be good that thats ok. It also has lots of different views so that you know that whilst your way may be different it doesnt make it wrong! It gives you confidence to be the mum you are. I have had 3 children, my youngest is 10 months old and even now I have found this book useful. Looking at the earlier stages there is lots of info in there that would have helped me. There is a great medical bit at the back which is always good to have as a reference in those 'panicky' moments! I would recommend this book at any stage or as a gift to a mum to be in anticipation!
Amy says: From having a flip through the earlier chapters and reading the one relevant to my little boy I wish that I had had this book from day one. Hsving the quotations from other mothers is a big bonus, it is giving you advice from which you can decide what you think is best. The book is not preaching at you what is right and what is wrong which i think is great especially if it your first.
Annie-Marie says: I love this book! It has everything that you need to know in the one place. With my 1st child I was rushing out to buy magazines every month and they never answered all my questions but this book does! There is nearly a 5 year age gap between my children and when I had my daughter I felt lost as I had forgotten loads so much so I bought lots of books on parenting but they never helped in the way that this book does.
Suzannah says: This book is very informative and to the point. It is an easy read and explains things simply. I especially like the way the book is set out month by month so you know what you can expect your baby to be doing. There are quotations from other 'Netmums' which made me feel comforted, knowing that I wasn't alone. On the whole I would definitely recommend this book and wish I had it to hand when my eldest was born nearly three years ago.
Megs says: It looks great, not preachy or patronising like some books I read when I had my daughter. There are also a few quotes from me inside which was quite weird to read but all good!! Will use it more once #2 arrives, (due any day) but definitely first impressions are it's a great read with lots of practical, sound and relevant advice from people who know
Yasmeen says: I really didnt know what to expect when i recieved this book but assumed it would have been the same as all the other books and magazine i had read over and over again during my first daughters pregnancy but i was so wrong. Firsty it is written in plain simple english and so would be suitable for mothers of all ages. It is split up in easy chapters so you can simply start to read from where you are in your babies timeline. The thing i love about this book is the mummy tips which have come from real life experiences, not tex book answers to scenarios, so as mums im sure you can all relate to some of them which makes you smile and others which make you think "wow i didnt think of that but i will give that a go". I would recommend this book as its a essential read for any 1st time mum to be or returning mummy as if you are like me and have had a gap its amazing how much you forget. The information about when midwifes should visit and vaccinations is also great because the red book can be a litle confusing and daunting as it simply shows when the vac are due and what they being immunised for but this book explains all from vacs to registering the baby.I also like the fact pages for e.g about breast feeding. This book also focuses on how you as a mum should be encouraging yourself to do things if its meeting other mums,your friends or thinking about sorting things out such as your new working arrangements after you finish maternity. What can i say im truly impressed and have decided to borrow my copy to a friend who is due in dec who im sure will be impressed too even though its her third. Keep up the good work netmum team!
Rosena says: I'm not a first time mum but I do have a big gap between mine and so much is easily forgotten or the guidelines change and you forget which way is best,correct or just easiest. This book could quite easily be a "go to" guide and I shall be buying copies for both my sister who is expecting and for my sister-in-law who has just given birth. I love the way snippets and quotes from other mums are dotted around in each chapter, it makes for an interesting read even if you are just skimming the pages if you are in a hurry to find what you're looking for. I find actual advice from other mums who have been there lots more helpful than some of the "experts" who quite often don't have children and despite qualifications have never been up at 3am with a baby who has been crying for hours with no reason. Huge Thumbs up from me

Baby sleep solutions: Finding your own way to easy evenings and peaceful nights
'Baby sleep solutions' looks closely at different sleep methods to help you find your way to easy evenings and peaceful night times.
With chapters on each phase of a baby's life until the age of two, this book is the only book on sleep a new parent should need.
What do readers think of the book?
We asked 30 Netmums members to read and review the book for us, they received their copies this week and you can catch up with what they think here.
Bryony says: I found the down-to-earth, parent-friendly style very easy to read, and the fact that the paragraphs were short meant it was a perfect reference to use when all the reading time you can grab, is the odd 10 minutes here and there amid your hectic daily routine.
Amy says: When I received the book Baby Sleep Solutions, I must say I was wary of another book that says "Do this, Do that" but it doesn't, It gives advice and shares experiences of other parents in the same situations. I particularly like the way it is split into easy to read chapters, you can look at the contents page and pick out the age your baby is and read that chapter, without confusing yourself with all the other suggestions for other ages. I have finally learnt that there is no Magic Solution to Bedtimes or Naptimes, It's all about knowing your baby's needs, Knowing the signs of your baby's tiredness and acting on it before they get too tired and grumpy to settle, A Few Sleepless Nights and a lot of Perseverance. Thank You Netmums for publishing a book that makes me feel 'Normal' and not like I have to be Supermum 24/7.
Sarah says: I will be using this book like a sleep bible! I feel it has been brilliantly written in an easy to follow and understand way. I love the fact that other mums have included their advice and its truly a wealth of sleep knowledge.
Tracey says: There is a wealth of practical advice and tips on ways to establish good sleeping routines if you are mum to a newborn, but also plenty of advice for mums like me who have older babies and toddlers who still don't sleep through. I am a supporter of co-sleeping and it was nice to find a book which, whilst outlining the dangers, didn't dismiss it as a definite no-no and explained the ways to bed share in a way which is safe for baby. I have a side-car cot and have found this to be the perfect way to have the best of both worlds! In my work I am often approached for advice and will certainly be recommending this book to any mums who are concerned about their babies sleep patterns.

Toddling to Ten:
Nielsen BookScan
This book takes a friendly, realistic approach to the most common problems shared by parents with children in the toddler to ten years old age range.
Being a parent can sometimes be a lonely job and when you come up against a problem you don't know how to resolve, it's hard not to think you're the only one who finds it so hard. Toddling to Ten shares real life experiences from many of the netmums members who have been in exactly the same situations, which means you'll read this book nodding your head and feeling thankful yours isn't the only child who does that!

Take a look inside the book
We do have some of the content of the book on the site enabling you to have a sneak peek inside and see exactly how the issues are covered, of course it's not like having the book at hand to grab when you're needing the help but it's the next best thing. Discover the chapters here.
What do readers think of the book?
Claire says: When a group of mum's get together, inevitably, the conversation comes round to those embarrassing topics - like the contents of a nappy or how to deal with 'those' questions. The netmums team have managed to bring this 'girlie chat' feel in book form (for dad's too). It tackles all of those subjects and more in a lighthearted but informative way. It's one I will be dipping into for many years to come.
A Mum says: I am new to netmums but this book which features all kinds of really useful, sensible, tried-and-tested advice from real mums as well as experts such as child psychologists and nutrition experts, is just brilliant. I recommend it to anyone with 'toddling to ten' children - it is on the mums' side and doesn't make you feel guilty or inadequate. A problem shared is a problem halved. I shall tell all my friends about this book - thank you netmums!
Julia says: I love the netmums website so it great to have all their advice and support in a book at well for those times when I am really pressed for time. They seem to have a great balance between professional advice and advice from members which makes it really easy to read, especially when you recognise members names from the forum!! Really loved the food advice, made me realise that the problems I have with feeding my children are entirely normal but there is a way out.
Mrs Wilson says: My kids are aged from three to nine, so I bought this as a one-size-fits-all. It's brilliant! So many parenting books are patronising or leave you feeling inadequate, but this is great because it sets out the facts, then gives the opinions and experiences of other parents and also experts. I found the section on sex education very useful (and hilarious). Also the debate on when it's ok to let your children out alone was interesting. I'd recommend this book to any parent.

How to be a Happy Mum:
It's important for mums to be happy. Mums are the centre of the family and the centre of the home and if mums are happy, children will be happy. Sadly it's not that easy to feel happy all the time, being a mum can be really difficult and stressful at times and it's too easy for mums to spend all their energy on their family and home and forget about themselves.
Telling it exactly how it is, this book looks at the stresses most mums face and offers practical advice as well as empathy. Take a read and breathe a sigh of relief that you're not alone in how you feel.

What do readers think of the book?
Jennifer says: I've just spent 10 mins reading through it, and can't believe just how many times I've thought "that's me"! Brilliant. I'm thinking of buying it as a pressie for my friends who've had babies over the last couple of months!
Freya says: I bought this book to try and recapture a bit of happiness and stress-less existence for myself before it's too late. With three children under four stress is my middle name. This is full of really useful suggestions, advice, anecdotes from other mums etc - strategies for dealing with badly behaved children, relationship troubles, work pressures, housework crises and losing yourself into the big mum hole. I really can't recommend this book enough for sensible, practical, down to earth advice. And it's really nice to know you're not the only mum who feels like she's not coping!
Mrs Harrison says: This book is fantastic! It's describes what motherhood is really like - acknowledging that children are a great blessing, but that they can also try your patience and sometimes drive you to distraction! It's about how to cope - with everything from the children's bad behaviour, to organising your home, and (perhaps most importantly) some sound advice for when you get that sinking feeling. It's written by people who really understand what it's like to be a mother. And the quotes from the netmums.com website add that touch of realism, acknowledging the fact that you're not alone in how you feel. I can't recommend this book highly enough!
Mrs Bowe says: Great book offering advice, inspiration, ideas (together with annecdotes from other mums) for you to live as a happy mum. Not at all dictatorial. Has practical ideas and tips for making life easier, more organised. The overall tone is relax and enjoy your life with your kids - no-one's perfect!
Jen says: Such a brilliant, refreshing book. It is so reassuring to realise you are not alone and that your worries, fears and feelings are common. Includes fantastic tips on how best to look after yourself and not just your kids! Brilliant!!
Lesley says: This is the first book I've ever read that is honest and tells you the real truth about parenting instead of making motherhood sound wonderful all the time. It doesn't hide the fact that children ARE hardwork. Yes there are lots of good points to being a parent (and I wouldn't swap it for the world) but there is an awful lot of decision making to be made during the journey of parenting and this book helps you prepare for them in a practical way and helps us parents realise we are not alone. This book is a must for every parent, whether first timers or not.
Sarah says: For sound and sensitive advice the netmums website is the nations authority, so to have the book, to refer to, dip in to, or just consume in one sitting is a God send. There is so much written on babies and parenting but this book is truely about being a Mum, and makes you realise its perfectly normal to find whole deal a little challenging at times.. and gives you strategies for making the job easier and more fun for everyone. Freegards very powerful message is that the essential step towards a happy family is to make sure Mum is enjoy her job. Essential reading for parents everywhere, no matter how old the kids are!
Donna says: This book is great. My children are 4 and 6 and while I wish I'd had a copy when my eldest was first born as I know it would have helped me loads, it's still proving useful to me now! Every mum should be given a copy before they give birth so they know what to expect and more importantly know that they're not alone in their feelings and see the support netmums can give them. I bought three copies and gave one each to my sister in laws for Christmas.
Claire says: How to be a happy mum really helped me change my way of thinking about several things. I am gradually getting more patience with my son and I'm sure the book helped.
Helen says: I got this book before Christmas and it has been read cover to cover already. Really good. Makes me feel better that I am not alone in thinking parenting can be really hard work.

What do readers think of the book?
Zoe says: I just wanted to say a massive thank you for the netmums cookery book which I recently saw on Amazon and decided to invest in. It is brilliant! a book by mums for mums, thank you Netmums.
Emma says: Although 2 of my children aren't faddy eaters I often find I run out of inspiration and tend give them the same old thing. This book is great, it has loads of very very easy to cook recipes that are quick and simple to prepare. The book has even been a hit with my fussy eater and she has made a few of the recipies herself already (we have only had the book a couple of weeks. A really useful book from a great website. :) Oh - one more thing - for the price I thought it would be a soft covered book, but it has a really good quality hard cover - it might even survive my chaotic kitchen!
Nicola says: I've got lots of books on my bookshelves aimed at feeding kids. But this is the only one I can say I will actually use regularly. The difference is - Feeding Kids has lots of normal, every day recipes - the kind of food I used to eat as a child - lasagne, shepherd's pie, omelettes, pasta bakes and casseroles. I like the nutritional notes, and the variations under many of the recipes means that you can vary them to suit your child and maybe sneak in a few more veggies if you dare!
Mrs Bailey: I was struggling what to cook every day for my son (13 months) and husband. Since I got this book my life is much easier. Great inspiration. Suitable for babies, kids and adults. Simple recipes and lots of interesting tips. What a fantastic boook! Alex says: I got this book to feed my toddler and husband along with her, and we've enjoyed every single recipe so far (tried about 8). It's got classic recipes in it like tuna pasta bakes, and some invented by cooking mums, like a red rootveg hotpot that we enjoy a lot. On some recipes you get tips on how to serve them for your fun loving fussy eaters (fishcakes - cut out with fish shaped cookie cutters and serve on blue plates with greens as seaweed - clever!). Great for mum time management :-)
Mrs Ganado says: This is a great book with simple, economical recipies which are aimed at children but great for adults too. The best recipie so far is the quick cheesecake - good enough for an emergency dinner party pudding. Unlike some family cookbooks on the market at the moment the ingredients are all accessible and mostly cupboard basics. I would definatly buy this book over the others on the market at the moment aimed at children/families(of which I have too many going dusty!)
Mrs Morris says: I love this book. I never appreciated beforehand that I would need to learn to cook more than a frozen pizza after having a baby and so its been a steep learning curve. From when my son turned about 10 months and I brought this book he has only eaten homecooked family meals. There are loads of great recipies and plenty of advice on nutrition and I always find I have enough for my husband and I plus at least 4 toddler size portions to stick in the freezer. I have recommended it to all of my friends.
Sarah says: THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for not only creating a book full of foods that my 14 months old daughter readily scoffs down, but also meals that we can eat as a family! I absolutely love and adore this book and have been recommending to all my friends! I love the Netmums website and this book has not let me down either! In fact I am off to buy the happy mum book now!
Sandra says: I am honestly not exaggerating when I say that this book has changed my life and has transformed my children's diet. I am mum to four children aged 7 months to 5 years and have had to battle with fussy eating for some time now. Our children were determined to turn into the anti-veg and anti-meat brigade, surviving on a diet of bread and baked beans. I was quickly running out of ideas as to what to cook for them, having tried many other cookery books aimed at children and fussy eating ... until I came across this one. Absolutely brilliant! The recipes are all that busy mums are looking for: simple (they do not take half a day to prepare), tasty (my children ask for second helpings) and healthy (plenty of suggestions for hiding extra veg and how to make food more nutritious without sacrificing taste and turning meals into "weird" health guru projects). At last a book that combines simplicity with taste and good nutrition. This book delivers what it promises.
Kathryn says: A faboulous book filled with really 'cookable' meals that can be easily adapted depending on what you have in the house. For once we are all sitting down as a family to eat rather than cooking seperate meals to be eaten at different times! Highly recommended.
Zoe says: I have 2 children which can both test the parenting boundries sometimes and I have always found the Netmums website so helpful. I bought the Netmums feeding kids recipe book and it was fantastic, we have spent hours cooking tasty meals and treats from the book so I was really excited when this book was released too. It really made me feel like I was not the only person who had children pushing the limits and it was fantastic to read tips and comments from real mums who have been through the same trials. The book is set out lovely and makes easy reading.....come on Netmums I want more!!!

The result is a compendium of friendly, non-prescriptive guidance which should help you through all the tricky bits - without laying down a whole load of 'rules' that on difficult days you haven't a hope sticking to.

Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...
BioCryst said today it halted patient enrollment in a Phase III trial of its flu drug candidate peramivir. In a statement, the company cited an interim analysis by its data monitoring committee that found just a small difference between peramivir and control groups for the primary endpoint, changes to vital signs and oxygen saturation through the 10th day.
The company also cited the recalculation of its sample size, which resulted in a group greater than the predefined futility boundary of 320 subjects.
"We are proceeding with a full analysis of unblinded data from the trial, and a final decision will be made following completion of the analysis and further discussions with our development partners; however, it is unlikely that peramivir development for US registration will continue," William P. Sheridan, MBBS, BioCryst's senior VP and chief medical officer, said in the statement.
The Phase III trial was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 600 mg i.v. peramivir for adults, and 10 mg/kg for adolescents, hospitalized due to serious influenza. The peramivir was to be administered once-daily for five days in addition to standard-of-care, with results compared to those of standard-of-care alone.
A total 405 patients were enrolled in the overall trial population at the time of the cutoff. However, the interim analysis was conducted on just 119 of those patients enrolled in the primary efficacy population. The interim analysis evaluated the difference between the peramivir group and the control group in time to clinical resolution for the subjects enrolled to date, and estimated the sample size for the primary efficacy analysis population required to maintain adequate power, and showed statistical significance in the final study analysis.
BioCryst said it shared the DMC recommendation with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (HHS/BARDA) and other development partners. BARDA had awarded BioCryst a $234.8 million contract to develop peramivir, which is already approved for use in Japan (under the name Rapiacta® ) and Korea.

An investigation involving adding and subtracting sets of consecutive numbers. Lots to find out, lots to explore.
What is the smallest number with exactly 14 divisors?
Many numbers can be expressed as the sum of two or more consecutive integers. For example, 15=7+8 and 10=1+2+3+4. Can you say which numbers can be expressed in this way?

Cambria and Blair counties have the most known diabetics in the United States.
I am a type 2 diabetic on insulin. Carbohydrates as well as sugars are to be counted for three meals and two snacks daily.
If one can find low-carb and low- or no-sugar products, one must pay three to four times more than the price for the regular items. Why?
I've contacted grocery store managers and was told action would be taken. More than a year later, nothing.
When I visited my daughter in Norwood, Mass., I took an empty suitcase and filled it up with needed products at regular prices.
I am privileged to receive Meals on Wheels.
It should consider listing the carbs on its daily meals.
Cambria County was recently named 64th of 67 counties in Pennsylvania as the most unhealthy. Diabetics please take action with stores now.

Had some fantasy hockey drafts this week (a few for bragging rights, and a money league). And of course I always like to target a few Red Wings, the obvious being Z, Dats, Mule, Kronner and Jimmy. But this season with our plethora of skilled forwards, it seems there's several more Red Wings fantasy options than the past few seasons.
Besides the 5 I already mentioned above, I've seen the following Red Wings get drafted in all 3 of my leagues: Alfredsson, Weiss, Abdelkader, Nyquist, Tatar and DeKeyser. Granted, all of my leagues were at least half full of Wings fans, but still, it seems this year there's more coveted Red Wings in the fantasy world than usual. Personally, I only targeted 6 in my drafts (Z, Dats, Kronner, Jimmy, Aflie, Weiss) but I can certainly understand taking a late-round chance on the others mentioned. How many/which Red Wings are you targeting/or have already drafted this year?

Been running these for years and never disappointed. Clydesdales need a high psi and you also get high tpi. Can't go wrong.
Love these tires. Just switched to 25's for a more comfortable ride with no loss in performance.
I like a lot great for all around training
I've been using Vittoria Rubino Pros for several years and they have been unfailingly reliable and durable. Punctures are rare and the milage I get is excellent. The weight is good and the ride and handling more than acceptable. For the price, I couldn't be happier with them.
These tires are the best deal around! Decent mileage, almost no flats,without riding like bricks. And PBK has the best price. Great service, quick ship to California, l would recommend these tires to anyone!
These tires are the best for training, they have a smoother rolling resistance than gatorskins and offer the same comparable puncture protection.
The best training tire i have ridden, low rolling resistance and great puncture protection.
Always by my tires from you guys best price , fast shipping
Good tires. Holding up well at 3,000 miles. No flats. Look good in yellow. Good price on sale
I'm on my 2nd set of Rubino Pros and for durability, price point, and overall performance, you simply can't do better. These tires reflect the best in Italian quality and craftsmanship. I ride in the mountains and always feel secure on fast descents, especially in tight corners. This is the choice for anyone who wants a dependable, fast tire at an unbeatable price.
Been using for 3 years now - they hold up to rough roads, track well in the rain, and haven't seen many flat tires.
Great tires at a great price, fast shipping to the US, very satisfied.
Good racing and training tire,love the color,long lasting also
Quick receipt of my tire order. I always go to PBK first for my bike needs. Less expensive and quick "at my door" delivery.
Contrary to at least one other review, I did, indeed, receive the 150 TPI version III.
I really enjoy Rubino Pro tires and the PBK prices are the best anywhere. Good puncture resistance in a reasonably supple tire. I was a little disappointed, however, to receive RP 2s rather than 3s. I believe the 2s were discontinued in 2011-2012. I doubt I will possibly notice the difference, but the web site needs to be at least accurate. While it does not explicitly say RP III, it does say 150 TPI, and the IIs are 120.
Awesome it's a new experience riding these tires I like the feel I'm a big guy and like the fact that I can go up to 145psi .my first ride I did 35miles and it was great.Thanks
I've bought many tires from PBK and have decided that the VRPCRT are the best ones to date. Rarely a flat and good overall mileage from this tire. Also, gotta have colors on my wheels!
I've had good luck with the Rubinos as training tires. Very few punctures, solid performance. Sure, they aren't the lightest, but they get the job done and they were ridiculously cheap on probikekit.
These arrived timely and as ordered. My first order with PBK. Love the tires so far - compared to my favorite Panaracer Type D clinchers. Plus having them come in red/black matches my bike so score.
I have had pretty good luck with the Kevlar belted version of this tire over the years...however....in recent years the quality or puncture resistance has seemed to diminished somewhat....can't beat the sale price...
My favorite tires are Veterstein Tri-comps w/a Kevlar belt & bead...however...no one has them any longer in 650c...I Time Trial & it is a very durable performance tire that will hold extremely high tire pressures similar to tubular tires....
Ridden these tires for two years. Only one flat when I hit a rock. Get good mileage also I avg about 3000 miles out of set
The Rubino Pro gives excellent value for the money. While not as light, nor as responsive as some of the more expensive tires such as Continental's Gran Prix 4000s, the Rubino Pro handles well, wears well and gives a surprisingly good quality ride. I do my winter training on harsh Arizona desert roads that eats tires. The rubino pro holds up to the rough stuff and has excellent puncture resistance. A great training tire.
These are my go to high mileage and training tire. Price is great and road feel and handling is well above average. I haven't found a better everyday tire option in 20 years.
These are goid tyres,not expensive,long wear,and love the colors
These tires came on a new bike I purchased. Didn't know anything about them up to then. I found them to be a great tire. Long-lasting (2000 miles) and durable. They also roll very nice. I will continue to use due to price, roll, durablility.
I've been using these tires for years. I have tried many others but it's hard to beat these for rolling resistance and wear and tear. Excellent value for everyday road and racing.
Great price, great puncture resistance, they last me a year! Not too many flats throughout the life, less than ive had with gatorskins!
I'm an amateur cyclist - been riding for 5 years. While I can't claim to have tried anywhere near every tire available, I've found these to be the best among those I have tried. I have these tires installed on three of my four bikes (the fourth is a cyclocross). (1) They offer excellent flat resistance. I ride on roads that have plenty of 'road debris' (rocks, tree limbs, etc., - no glass) and I have yet to flat with these tires after more than 6,000 miles (multiple bikes - I note that one pair has about 2,500 miles and is getting very thin, so if it flatted tomorrow I wouldn't be surprised, but every other tire I've tried has flatted far sooner). For your comparison, I ride at 115/105 psi rear/front. The Vittoria Rubino's are rated at 145psi max, I believe. Another tire (can I state the brand and tire here? Serfas Seca RS) I just removed and replaced with a fresh set of Rubino's. The old tire has half the TPI, is rated at 130psi, and flatted on me not excessively, but still often enough to be an annoyance. Good-bye and good-riddance to them! (2) They offer better (less) rolling resistance than any other tire I've tried. Not enough to turn me into a lightning-fast racer, but it's noticeable. (3) I like the broad color stripe on the sides. A little bike-bling is a good thing, imho.
I've had excellent luck with Rubino Pros, regular and "slicks". Fairly light, long wearing, handle well. Current ones I'm running have the blue sidewalls, and they're going strong after well over 1200 miles (not a single flat, knock on carbon). No complaints with these tires at all!
This are the best tires for training. I'm bee using 700x25mm and love it.
Solid performing, reasonably priced tire... a bit of traction on wet roads... a good choice for all but flat out racing.
These tires are fantastic. They have held up through 5,000 miles and not one flat from a puncture. The color options are awesome, and it's a great all around tire. I had a set that I used for racing and a set I used for training, you can't go wrong with a set of these tires. I highly recommend them.
This is an outstanding tire at a great price that offers cyclists durability, dependability and Italian tradition. While not the lightest clincher tire on the market, its few extra ounces make little difference when one considers the tire's overall performance and longevity. I have been especially impressed with the tire's cornering ability in all types of weather. A great buy. A great ride.
Great tire at a great price. Tires came in the manufactures box and arrived in the state in about two weeks. Great buying experience and will by from again.
I've been riding on these tires for many years. I've always found them to be very durable (puncture resistant) and with a low rolling resistance. They corner well at high speed and even on wet roads. If you are looking for the best "bang for the buck" go with the Rubino Pro's.
Solid training tires.
Great tires, highly recommended, hardly any flats, biggest bang for your buck
The Vittoria Rubino Pro tires are good quailty and easy to change.
Excellent tires. Put 3000 miles on a previous set and not a single cut or nick on the tire. Back tire flattened across the middle but that is normal with all tires I have ridden (I weigh 230 lbs). Great tire if you ride on rough/chip and tar roads. Would recommend this tire to anyone that wants the security of knowing the tire is almost flat proof.
Have bought from probikekit before and have been very pleased. Will continue to buy.
Good all round training tire, highly recommend for winter riding.
Been riding either these or the Vredestein puncture resistant training tires for the past 10+ years. Vredestein are a bit more supple, but the Rubinos maybe flat once a year if at all. Just because the PSI says 145 max, there's no reason to inflate anywhere near that. I ride them at 100 and that is just fine. Can't go wrong for training on the Rubinos.
Ok I like the styling and they seem like good tires, I have had good luck with them in the past in terms of there durability. However, after only a couple of rides I blew one out with some glass on the road. Tore a hole so big that the tire was totally unusable. I wish there was some road debris protection at least for the first 90 days or something. Hard to say if any other tire would have faired better against the glass.
Although I have less than 100 miles on this (rear) tire, I like its road feel so far. I'm also impressed with the tire's solid construction. The tread appears to be substantial and the tire holds its pressure quite well. 4 Stars today; maybe 5 Stars after another 500 miles. Time will tell.
After a struggle to get the tire on my rim because the sidewalls had flattened out due to the packaging it came in, I want to report that after a few rides I'm quite impressed with this product. Time will tell, but so far so good.
Vittoria makes great tires; Rubino Pro is an excellent proof of that. I had been a cyclist for over 20 years. I ride from 300 to 500 miles per week. The tire that I use is Vittoria Rubino Pro Clincher Road Tyre. Its durability is above average. Its rolling resistance is minimum, so it is a fast tire. It also has great all weather grip. I had been sponsored by other brands and I had use so many more. the one that I buy I had used for so many years now and it is used on all my bikes is the Rubino Pro. It lasts long, rolls good; and is a training tyre that could be used to race. Just give it a try and enjoy the ride. PS. I no longer race and I have never and will never be sponsored by Vittoria. therefore you can trust what I say
I have been riding Rubinos for about 5 years and can honestly say I've had a lot of luck with them. great flat resistance, get a ton of miles (kilos!), and are very supple. Recommend these tires to high mileage riders.
I just got these in the mail. I can't speak about how good the tires themselves are yet since I haven't put them on my bike yet. The product did come as described and were shipped in a timely manor.

AMD hopes to change that with the release of its new Phenom processors. MSI was the first mainboard manufacturer to announce an RD790 mainboard, the K9A2 Platinum, for the quad-core and tri-core Phenom's. Mainboards from ASUS and Gigabyte based on RD790 were announced in October and also support Phenom quad-core processors.
More details of the AMD platform launch that included the Phenom, the RD790 chipset and the RV670 graphics processor surfaced early in November. DailyTech reported early in November 2007 on the pricing structure of the Phenom processors ranging from about $280 to $330 USD.
An AMD internal memos hows the AMD Phenom 9700, 2.4 GHz processor is slated for mid-December availability. Allocation for the Phenom 9600 running at 2.3GHz has been pushed back to a Q1 2008 date.
The Tech Report, in an interview with AMD's desktop product marketing manager Michael Saucier, confirmed an erratum for all Phenom processors that will cause the system to hang due to an L3 cache miss. The Tech Report claims this fix will degrade performance as much at 10%.
The mainboard favored by AMD, the MSI K9A2 Platinum is impossible to get currently since it is out of stock. MSI confirmed to DailyTech that this board will start shipping again next week, and that the board itself is not with any defect, but just in high demand and low availability.
quote: Stability is an equally important axis in computer performance, and the story isn't particularly robust yet. Earlier, we noted the inability of the platform to run Adobe After Effects CS3. In our game testing, the Supreme Commander benchmark crashed several times, while Quake Wars: Enemy Territory locked up once. Thermal issues didn't seem to be the culprit here. It's very likely another BIOS update or two for the motherboard will be needed to fix these issues.
quote: The spider platform looks good overall if you ignore some bugs they have right now....the processor we did have had a number of issues that added up....AMD's Phenom Processor falls short of expectations and needs to have the bugs worked out with higher clock frequencies.
quote: AMD's plan to release an unlocked version of the Phenom 9600 may help tip the scales in the 9600's favor for some folks, but I suspect they won't find much overclocking headroom in those chips. In fact, our 2.6GHz engineering sample wasn't 100% stable, which is why you won't find any overclocking results in this review.
quote: Now the other part of the Spider project ... really impressive is the new AMD 790FX chipset we tested. Surely we had a number of bugs
quote: I've been play with it for a couple days now, and not have gotten it completely stable
quote: AMD's quad-core "Barcelona" Opterons have been notably difficult to find since their introduction two months ago, and The Tech Report has learned that a chip-level problem has impacted the supply of these chips to both server OEMs and distribution channel customers.
quote: If you call an OEM today to get an AMD quad-core powered system, you'relikely to get a pitch for an Intel system or an AMD dual-core chip. Why? Quad-core Opterons, those formerly known as Barcelona chips, are in short supply.
quote: "So overall I'm not at all disappointed by AMD Phenom at all. It's just that we were all expecting a little more." - guru3d.com

When Grant Meglis '14 of Acton, Mass., began growing his distinctive red beard, he had no idea that it would become an iconic feature of his identity — or benefit a good cause. As a captain of the crew team, co-chair of the Intersociety Council and a member of Hamilton Alumni Leadership Training (HALT), Meglis is accustomed to influencing his peers on campus. This semester, however, he decided to "take it on the chin" in the Shave for a Cause fundraiser. Meglis raffled the fate of his facial hair in exchange for donations to the Montgomery Experience, a local organization that supports those affected by severe medical conditions. The winning idea: Braiding the beard before it was entirely shaved. The result: $243 and some good laughs.
"[Growing the beard] started out as laziness … and then it turned into determination.
Every time I would see someone, or someone new, they would comment on it, and often it was sharing their undesired opinions as in, 'Hey, Grant, you look like a lumberjack, why don't you shave?' (quoting my mother). So it turned into an expression of self-dedication … it's my determination to push through other's perceptions of me."
"The sophomores [in my fraternity] had never known me without a beard. They wanted me to shave it, but they needed a good reason. One of them said, 'You should have some sort of raffle, and the winner has to shave it,' and I said 'Why don't we just let them do whatever they want with it?'"
"Everyone finds it difficult to encourage uniqueness in themselves and others. I know we are dealing with this as a campus, as people on this earth, but I think we need to notice difference and then accept it and encourage it because that's really how we advance."
"Ever since I came to Hamilton, I've had a more positive outlook. I see good in people; I see potential rather than just adding up all [their] flaws. I don't know what to attribute it to on this campus … It has to be a perpetual cycle of older helping younger, but I definitely think my experience at Hamilton will shape the rest of my life and how I treat others."
"The Hamilton community is amazing, and there are so many opportunities to do something like this … I think Hamilton has really created a setting in which an idea like this can flourish."
"I want to leave my mark as that guy who did the weird, crazy beard fundraiser so people will think, 'If he could do that, then why can't I do this?'"

The Kepler Science Conference is happening Dec 5 through 9. Recordings of conference presentations may be found on the
Conference Sessions/Schedule page
This image is an artist's conception of planet Kepler-22b, a planet known to comfortably circle in the habitable zone of a sun-like star. It is the first planet that NASA's Kepler mission has confirmed to orbit in a star's habitable zone -- the region around a star where liquid water, a requirement for life on Earth, could persist. The planet is 2.4 times the size of Earth, making it the smallest yet found to orbit in the middle of the habitable zone of a star like our sun.
Scientists do not yet know if the planet has a predominantly rocky, gaseous, or liquid composition. It's possible that the world would have clouds in its atmosphere, as depicted here in the artist's interpretation.
Kepler also has discovered more than 1,000 new planet candidates, nearly doubling its previously known count. Ten of these candidates are near-Earth-size and orbit in the habitable zone of their host star. Since the last catalog was released in February, the number of planet candidates identified by Kepler has increased by 89 percent and now totals 2,326. Of these, 207 are approximately Earth-size, 680 are super Earth-size, 1,181 are Neptune-size, 203 are Jupiter-size and 55 are larger than Jupiter. The number of Earth-size and super Earth-size candidates has increased by more than 200 and 140 percent since February, respectively. There are 48 planet candidates in their star's habitable zone, a decrease from the 54 reported in February, because the Kepler team has applied a stricter definition of what constitutes a habitable zone in the new catalog, to account for the warming effect of atmospheres, which would move the zone away from the star, out to longer orbital periods.
Quotes from Kepler team:
"This is a major milestone on the road to finding Earth's twin," said Douglas Hudgins, Kepler program scientist at NASA Headquarters in Washington. "Kepler's results continue to demonstrate the importance of NASA's science missions, which aim to answer some of the biggest questions about our place in the universe."
"Fortune smiled upon us with the detection of this planet," said William Borucki, Kepler principal investigator at NASA Ames Research Center at Moffett Field, Calif., who led the team that discovered Kepler-22b. "The first transit was captured just three days after we declared the spacecraft operationally ready. We witnessed the defining third transit over the 2010 holiday season."
"The tremendous growth in the number of Earth-size candidates tells us that we're honing in on the planets Kepler was designed to detect: those that are not only Earth-size, but also are potentially habitable," said Natalie Batalha, Kepler deputy science team lead at San Jose State University in California. "The more data we collect, the keener our eye for finding the smallest planets out at longer orbital periods."
This diagram below compares our own solar system to Kepler-22. The diagram includes the habitable zone where water can exist in liquid form. Kepler-22's star is a bit smaller than our sun, so it's habitable zone is slightly closer in. The orbit of Kepler-22b around its star takes 289 days and is about 85% as large as Earth's orbit.

UPS loses one customer for good after holiday shipping delays
It looks like United Parcel Service has lost one customer for good after the holiday shipping delays meant some families did not find gifts under the tree on Christmas morning.
On Tuesday, I wrote an article about the delays. UPS said a North Texas ice storm three weeks ago caused a backlog of mail and packages that only got worse once the heavy seasonal volume started. My colleague Maria Halkias today wrote that UPS and Fed Ex Christmas delivery failures have exposed the perils of retailers promising to get last-minute gifts to customers.
For my article, I interviewed UPS customer James Ford of Garland at the UPS distribution center in Mesquite on Tuesday afternoon after he just found out that an overnight check was four days late. He was borrowing from his 401k retirement account to buy his kids presents.
Ford called me today to say the check never arrived — and Christmas was ruined. He ended up canceling the check.
"I still plan to do it but through another method — regular, first-class mail," Ford said referring to the U.S. Postal Service.

Outdoor Research Peruvian Hat
I've had my Black one for seven years with little…
Fabric: gore windstopper fleece
Fill: none
Price Paid: $22
I've had my Black one for seven years with little to no signs of wear. I've worn it mid winter on watch in the Sea of Japan and trips to Korea, in bitter upstate New York winters, and out near the Puget Sound at night on training operations...I've found nothing better for the price, weight, warmth, coverage, and wind stoppage.
When worn with a neoprene half face mask, it provides the ultimate coverage that stays where it should without becoming annoying. I've preferred this combination better than my OR Gorilla Balaclava and even tested my comfort between the two on sub zero days. It rolls up in your pocket for easy carry and stays there, instead of getting put somewhere else and later not having it when you need it.
I could go on and on, but there's no need. This is the ONE warm hat in my collection, the others got given away!

Fabric: Gore Windstopper Fleece
Price Paid: $30
In the Adirondacks it gets very cold, wet, and windy during the winter. This hat is a blessing. It covers all the way down the back of my neck and keeps the sides of my face protected as well. The cinch cord is great to seal in warmth.
If there is a downside it may be that the hat is too warm for mild (20-32 degrees) winter temperatures. Doesn't bother me though as I will wear just a beanie while hiking / snowshoeing and then pop this baby on and be cozy comfortable when the temps dip or the wind picks up.
I bought the large and it fits slightly loose but that's what I wanted to accommodate a liner cap or my beanie.
There aren't many pieces of gear I'll give a 5-star…
Price Paid: $16
There aren't many pieces of gear I'll give a 5-star review. I simply love this hat. I looked long and hard to find it on sale, just like I do for all my gear. I found the sizing chart was a bit too small... I had to send mine back for the next biggest size.
This hat is very thin and light, but as warm as my heavier and fluffier hats. It really is windproof, but the ear flaps really make the difference in cold weather. I've also worn it in the rain, and my head stayed dry, even though it isn't listed as a waterproof item. You can wear the drawstring on top of your head instead of under your chin, which holds the ear flaps up during warmer weather.
The only thing about this hat that I don't like is that it makes it noticeably harder to hear with the ear flaps down. I did not knock any stars off for that, because I think that is too much to expect for a hat that is actually covering your ears.
Also, in my opinion, this hat looks a bit goofy, so it's not something I would plan on wearing in your everyday activities, but that's not an issue on the trail.
This hat is one of my favorite pieces of gear. It's…
Price Paid: 20 bucks
This hat is one of my favorite pieces of gear. It's too hot to wear while you are hiking unless it's really cold out but when you get to camp and start to cool off it is most welcome. I cinch the chin straps up, snuggle down in my bag and my head stays nice and warm all night without breaking into a sweat. Breaths good and keeps your head warm. What else could you ask for?

Michael Fisher | July 8, 2011
By Michael Fisher • Friday, July 8, 2011 - 10:49
Willie Soon has been an individual of significant interest lately in climate circles. Last week, he spoke at the Heartland Institute's Sixth International Conference on Climate change, or as we like to call it, Denial-a-Palooza. A recent Greenpeace report found that Soon accepted over $1 million in funding from fossil fuel interests, including Koch Industries.
To top it off, RealClimate released a report yesterday revealing new issues with Soon's 2007 paper on polar bears. The non-peer-reviewed paper has been cited extensively before, notably by Sarah Palin, as proof that polar bears are not endangered by global warming. The paper includes skeptical co-authors M.G. Dyck, R.K. Baydack, David Legates, Sallie Baliunas, Tim Ball and L.O. Hancocks.
While the paper's central claims have already been disproven, the remaining issue is what appears to be Soon's willing disregard for data. RealClimate found that Soon had cherry picked data showing the highest level of Arctic Oscillation (AO), a natural variability that he blamed for any increases in temperature in the Hudson Bay area:
"The evidence of the cherry-picking of data for the sake of an (irrelevant) higher correlation from the files is a very clear black flag."
More importantly, RealClimate found evidence that Soon had access to more relevant data but chose not to use it. Rather than use data from Churchill which borders the Hudson Bay (an area that experienced little impact from Arctic Oscillation), Soon examined an area over 1000 miles away:
"So, the picture here is quite clear. Soon knew that the relevant data series for discussing the AO influence on Western Hudson Bay temperature (and by proxy, sea ice) was from Churchill and despite being reminded of the fact by the first set of reviewers, nonetheless continued to only show the AO connection to a site 1000 miles away, which had a much higher correlation without any discussion of whether this other data was at all relevant to Churchill or the bears nearby."
Although it is worth mentioning that the paper was funded by Koch Industries, the American Petroleum Institute, and ExxonMobil (see the paper's "Acknowledgements" section), it is what RealClimate describes as Soon's "scientific sleight of hand" that most tarnishes his credibility.
When it comes down to it, the quality of the science is what matters. And skeptical science regularly resorts to misdirection and junk science as a mode to influence popular opinion. That is why we need scientists like those at RealClimate to break through the skeptical static and reveal the truth.
Lindzen & funding
There is a most informative site The Carbon Brief which carries an article on those 900 papers that sceptics, sorry deniers, like to write about, within that article is this:
'Richard Lindzen, a climate scientist and prominent sceptic who notably has a degree of credibility in the scientific community, is a member of the 'Annapolis Center for Science-Based Public Policy', which has also received Exxon funding.'
Read the full article here:
Note also the mention of:
Willi Soon and associate Baliunas
Christy (incorrectly spelled as Christie within)
amongst others with a long history in dirty tricks type denial.

LOL... What I understand is
What I understand is that Lindzen is a respeced world class climatologist with infinatley more credibility than any blogger on this site and certainly more than the likes of Hansen, Mann, Schmidt, Schnieder,…….
The good news is that because the smear came from a regular of this "smear" site, nobody will pay attention to it.
lindzens message is very lucid and clear though…
Anymouse - either stupid or deliberatley obtuse - which?
'…lindzens message is very lucid and clear though…'
But incoherent with the facts as listed here:
Quotes by Richard Lindzen
Whatever, interviews such as the one you pointed to are only useful for the denier brigade because the interviewer either has not the knowledge to challenge Lindzen's obfuscatory arguments or not the honesty to do so. In other words such interviews are totally unbalanced. Lindzen got one thing correct that is when he said that he made a 'statement glibly', that interview was full of glib statements.
Classic bullshit baffles brains.
Now if he were pitted against a more adroit interviewer Lindzen would have been revealed as Plimer was to having 'no clothes'.
Whatever, thank you for bringing this interview to my attention it will provide another data point on Lindzen's downward credibility path.
Consider what is really happening to climate:

One from the South of England
It's funny how the smallest things can just grow out of all proportion.
One of the Bath players (only just 18) slipped and ran into one of his own defenders in the warm up before the Cardiff Harlequins match. The resulting dead leg meant he had to stand out of the game. That night it all went crazy, he ended up on the operating table having large, and deep cuts down either side of his thigh, the "Dead leg" had caused Compartment Syndrome, his thigh was sliced open (and kept open) to release the swelling. It is a rare condition, especially in the thigh, it is usually found in the calf muscle and can cause drop foot, only the second case the consultant had seen. Sadly the player was booked to go to the US for a couple of summer camps, at this rate he'll be lucky to play next season. Could have been worse though, people have lost a leg down to this thing.
On a brighter note, Cheadle LC, one of the biggest in the country came down to Bath for a two game weekend, winning both games, although the first was pretty close fought, 9 to 6 in the end. Being an outpost of Lacrosse these visiting teams are important, kids need games. In the evening the Cheadle kids went on a ghost tour of the city, one kid was heard saying it just wasn't scary enough, let's hope the local specters didn't here that and decide to up sticks and haunt Cheadle, some poor tourist guide will be out of a job.
The Men's game in the South is coming to its final climax, Bath beat Portsmouth University and now go into the East v West Playoff on Sunday 4th against Croydon LC, playing for the right to take up the bottom slot in the Premiership. Should be a good close game and a fitting end to a good season. There will also be a "Best of the West" v "Best of the East" game for all comers for each league plus a Veterans game for the over 40's (not a vast amount of running in that one).
On the development front, it looks like there may be a new club formed in Maidstone, Kent and Plymouth University are starting to turn out a side. Bristol City Council held three days of School sport, which Lacrosse was a big part of, the coaches, mainly from Bristol University Ladies team managed to keep nearly 400 kids occupied over three cold windy days, running mini tournaments and giving out medals.
Several clubs are gearing up for Easter tours, the biggest being Spencer (South London) who take a team of U14's to the US East Coast., a remarkable achievement, these kids have saved and fund raised for this chance, let's hope they have a great time.
For me, Easter is a time to get a break and recharge the batteries, or maybe watch some Lax, you never know.
The pictures are from the Cheadle tour of Bath.

PITTSBURGH - Penn State men's basketball coach Patrick Chambers often talks about winning plays that decide games against good teams.
Tuesday at the Petersen Events Center, it was Pittsburgh's Talib Zanna making that play against Chambers' Lions, blocking D.J. Newbill's layup with 2:55 to play and Penn State trailing by one.
Lamar Patterson corralled the deflection and found James Robinson for a fast-break layup that extended Pitt's lead and began a 9-2 run that put the game away in the Panthers' 78-69 victory.
"Talib, with his energy and play-making on both ends of the court, was something we really fed off of," Patterson said. "As a team, we just kind of rallied around him."
Chambers wasn't so sure Zanna's big play was legal.
"I thought I saw goaltending, but they saw differently," Chambers said regarding the officials. "There are too many possessions during the course of a 40-minute game to blame it on that, though. It was a close call. I thought maybe it hit the backboard, but they didn't see it that way."
The block was just part of a huge second half for Zanna, who scored 14 of his 16 points in the final 19 minutes. The 6-foot-9 senior was a large reason Pitt outscored the Nittany Lions 24-12 in the paint during the second half after being beaten inside 16-8 in the first when Penn State carried a 30-28 advantage into the locker room.
"In the first half, we tried to force a lot of shots," Zanna said. "In the second half, they went small so the paint was wide open, and I knew I could take my man one-on-one."
The Panthers (8-0) began to find Zanna inside off dribble-drive penetration shortly after Penn State's Tim Frazier picked up his third foul with 14:07 to play. Replays indicated Frazier was trying to back off contact and Pitt's Cameron Wright appeared to slip.
Wright's two free throws brought Pitt within one point, and Zanna gave the Panthers the lead on their next possession.
Penn State (6-3) fell behind by as many as seven before Frazier led the Lions back. The fifth-year senior assisted on Donovon Jack's layup with 5:15 to play that put the Nittany Lions ahead by one. Frazier finished with a game-high 27 points, three assists and four rebounds on 10-of-17 shooting.
"[Frazier and Newbill] are definitely the best two guards we've played, and I don't know that we'll play two better guards," Pitt coach Jaime Dixon said. "Old is good in college basketball, and those are two old guards. They have a lot of experience."
That experience still wasn't enough to combat Zanna and the Petersen Events Center crowd that fueled the Panthers to their 106thwin in 109 non-conference games at the arena.
"Having the Oakland Zoo behind you, it makes you feel almost invincible out there," Patterson said. "They are so rowdy, and they're a great fan section so it definitely provides a sixth man for us."
Pitt had four players reach double digits in points, including Patterson, who along with Zanna led the team with 16. The Panthers bench outscored Penn State, 18-10.
"Talib was great, and Lamar hit a big 3-pointer that really gave them some energy," Chambers said. "We looked like we wore down a little bit. We got a little tired at the end there, and that's probably poor scheduling by me."
Pitt won by single digits and trailed at halftime for the first time this season.
"It was not a good first half for us," Dixon said. "I spent the whole halftime emphasizing how many assists we had. Three is not a good number for us. We were impatient and didn't let things come.
"Fortunately we got going in the second half and did what we thought we could do. We thought we could get layups and drive it against them and we did that."
