David Simcock is praying for heavy downpours ahead of Breton Rock stepping up in class in the totepool EBF Stallions King Richard III Stakes at Leicester on Saturday.
The four-year-old former handicapper has earned the chance of tackling Listed class after landing a conditions event at Thirsk on his reappearance two weeks ago.
The Newmarket trainer is keen to give Breton Rock the opportunity of Listed success, but has his eyes firmly focused on the weather.
"He's in good order. He'll need plenty of rain. If the ground doesn't change he wouldn't run," said Simcock.
"This is another step up in class, but he's ready for it and, as long as he gets soft ground, he'll run very well."
Eton Forever has been a great servant to Roger Varian, giving his handler his first ever winner in 2011 as well as opening his Royal Ascot account the following year.
Though the seven-year-old has twice made a winning seasonal debut, Varian feels his charge might be just short of peak fitness for his return.
"Eton Forever seems in great form. His fast work has been good and he seems to have retained all of his ability," he told www.varianstable.com.
"As he has got older, it has become harder to get him 100% fit at home for his first start of the year and he may just be better for the run."
Professor is already a dual Listed winner and his trainer Richard Hannon believes the four-year-old has every chance of capturing a third.
"Professor has proved a star and has already won Listed races at Haydock and Salisbury, so, hopefully, he can clock up another one at Leicester," he told www.richardhannonracing.co.uk.
"This seven furlongs is his ideal trip and he will also relish the drying ground."
Dubawi Sound has been placed at this level, when third to Gordon Lord Byron at York in August 2012 when trained by David Brown.
He is now with Hugo Palmer, who is convinced the six-year-old retains plenty of ability but is more suited taking on just a few rivals rather than the hurly-burly of big-field handicaps.
That appeared to be the case when he was unplaced in the Spring Cup at Newbury on his first start for Palmer.
"Martin (Dwyer) felt after Newbury that the horse wasn't over the moon with being in a big field," the Newmarket handler told www.hugopalmer.com.
"On the way he works with Short Squeeze and Ascription, who are rated 106 and 109, he wouldn't look out of place in that field.
"On the pick of his work, he goes a good deal better than those two. On his best efforts at home, he won't be out of place.
"I just think it's worth dropping him back to seven furlongs and riding him a bit differently and I hope the ground at Leicester will stay quite quick."

The man with the "toughest job in mining" will set out his blueprint this week to reinvigorate Anglo American. Mark Cutifani, the former miner who succeeded Cynthia Carroll this year, will detail how he will achieve the 15 per cent return-on-capital target that he laid out in July.
Anglo is seen by analysts as the highest-cost operator of the four big diversified mining groups because its fortunes are bound so tightly to South Africa and its militantly unionised workforce. Its rate of return on capital employed is less than 10 per cent.

Ribbing himself for his list of famous exes, which includes Jennifer Aniston, Jessica Simpson, Minka Kelly and Jennifer Love Hewitt, the musician, 32, said his "funny track record" with star girlfriends is part of why he's calling it quits from the game of love – for now.
"For some reason who ever I date has been famous for a while. I can't sit here and be like, 'Oh, please let me live my life in private with this famous person who's been around for 15 years,' " he says.

Bandera PR
For immediate release.

Tualatin, Oregon, U.S.A.— January 15, 2009
You said you wanted a Ron Lake drop point lockback with G10 scales
and patented L.B.S.™ safety at an incredible price? Here's the CRKT®
Lake Bandera™.
This story is all about a cool knife and great value from Columbia River Knife & Tool®
(CRKT®). Cutlery Hall of Fame member and master lockback folder designer Ron Lake
showed us a prototype of this very tasty concept. It had a clean shape, choiled grip and a flat
profile with G10 scales. In other words, it was a knife that just about every knife fancier would
want. Our job was to make it a knife that anyone could afford. Because it's a rugged no-
nonsense design with Western flair, we decided to call it the Bandera™.
First, we looked at the modified drop point blade with its high hollow grind. We specified
premium 8Cr14MoV high-chromium stainless steel with a high satin brush finish to aid in
corrosion resistance. The result is a strong blade with great slicing and penetrating ability that
will hold an edge well.
For the frame, we specified brass liners and scales CNC machined from black G10, just
what you find in the finest custom knives. The grip is excellent, thanks to the G10 texture,
three finger choils and thumb friction grooves at the spine.
In the process, we built in Ron's patented* Lock Back Safety (L.B.S.™) which allows the
user to slide the small L.B.S. button forward to lock the blade both in the open and closed
positions. When locked open, it is virtually impossible to accidentally release the blade even
during vigorous cutting tasks. For those who are concerned about accidental opening, in-
pocket or on-belt, simply slide the button forward to lock the knife closed until its next use.
We've learned from experience that many of our customers want a smaller-sized pocket
carry, so from the get-go, we're making the Bandera in two sizes, both available with Razor-
Sharp or Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point™ Serrated edges. The larger Bandera
models 7265 and 7266 have 3.25" blades and measure 7.375" overall when opened. The
smaller Bandera 2 models 7263 and 7264 feature 2.75" blades and are 6.25" long when
All Bandera models are equipped with a removable custom stainless steel clip. If you prefer
to use a fob or lanyard, there's a handy lanyard opening in the brass liners at the butt.
But Whoa Nellie! That's a lot of needless yakkin' about an honest lockback that will sell
itself once you pick it up, turn it over in your hand a few times, and see the price of the larger
models at $49.99 MSRP and smaller models at only $44.99 MSRP.

Russ Kick
|Russ Kick
|1969 (age 46–47)
|Writer, editor in chief, publisher
Russ Kick (born 1969) is an American writer, editor, publisher and conspiracy theorist.
He was the founder and editor of the website The Memory Hole, which published and archived US government documents, including scientific studies and reports, civil rights-related reports, intelligence and covert action reports, consumer safety reports, and images including photographs of flag-draped coffins of American military personnel. These photos of the war dead garnered worldwide media attention, including heavy rotation on all 24-hour news channels and front-page coverage on major newspapers, including the New York Times.[1] The Memory Hole also gained attention for posting a completely uncensored version of a Justice Department report about its internal hiring practices, leading to a front-page story in the New York Times.[2] It also allegedly obtained and allegedly posted the allegedly uncut 5-minute "footage" of President George W. Bush allegedly sitting in a Florida classroom as the 9/11 attacks happened.
Kick was also editor-at-large for The Disinformation Company, and has written three books and edited six anthologies for them, including You Are Being Lied To and 50 Things You're Not Supposed to Know. He is currently editing an anthology of classic and contemporary poems about death for Disinformation and Red Wheel/Weiser.
He has also compiled and edited a three-volume, 1,600-page anthology set titled The Graphic Canon from Seven Stories Press, which features the world's great literature interpreted by over 120 artists and illustrators such as R. Crumb, Maxon Crumb, Will Eisner, Molly Crabapple, Sharon Rudahl, Dame Darcy, S. Clay Wilson, Gris Grimly, Roberta Gregory, Kim Deitch and Tara Seibel. [3][4] The first volume,[5] From The Epic of Gilgamesh to Shakespeare to Dangerous Liaisons (spring 2012), covers literature from ancient times through the end of the 1700s. The second volume,[6] Kubla Khan to the Brontë Sisters to The Picture of Dorian Gray (fall 2012), is devoted completely to the 1800s, and the third volume,[7] From Heart of Darkness to Hemingway to Infinite Jest (spring 2013), covers the entire twentieth century. The next volume in the ongoing project, The Graphic Canon of Children's Literature, was published in November 2014.[8]
Earlier in his career, Kick wrote articles, a column, and a cover story for The Village Voice.

• We attempted to integrate the DSM-III criteria for hypochondriasis with the clinical literature and derived six positive and two negative diagnostic criteria. Seven of these were assessed in a random sample of 92 medical outpatients by means of a self-report questionnaire, structured interview, and medical record audit. The results are in accord with previous work: there appears to be considerable internal validity and consistency in the syndrome in that disease conviction, disease fear, bodily preoccupation, and somatic symptoms are significantly intercorrelated. The three hypochondriacal attitudes (conviction, fear, and preoccupation) were not statistically related to the number of medical diagnoses in the patients' medical records. Depressive symptoms, as measured by the Beck Depression Inventory, were highly correlated with the other hypochondriacal symptoms. The hypochondriacal syndrome in these patients appears to be consistent with the clinical disorder described in DSM-III.

Despite telling my mom years ago that I would never become a knitter, I took up a pair of needles in 2009 and havent put them down since! Knitting is an outlet for my creative energy and my desire to always be making things with my hands. My goal as a designer is to create unique knitting patterns; inspired by the beautiful, wild and rugged landscape of the Pacific Northwest--a place I loves to explore and am privileged to call home. I strives to write patterns that are easy to follow and simply enjoyable both to knit and to wear.
Keeping busy by day as a wife, mother of three and homemaker, I love to spend my evenings curled up on the couch with a cup of coffee, knitting, planning and sketching my never-ending design ideas. :)
If you have an questions about any of my patterns, would like to become a test knitter or to set up a trunk show, please feel free to contact me! Id love to help!
The Tum Tum pattern is as close to a traditional moccasin as you can get--except it's knitted! These moccasins are knit in a warm, breathable and lightweight wool, designed to stay on a baby's foot securely with the help of a tongue and woven I-cord. With a garter stitch sole, purled shoe and seed stitch along the top, this moccasin is as much fun to look at, as it is to knit!
The fringe is the best part... Taken from a deceptively easy technique used to adorn a special kind of embroidery called Mountmellick, it is first knitted in a lace stitch, then unraveled to create the fringe. Small seed beads can also be sewn on to add a colorful touch and traditional flair to these adorable, one-of-a-kind, trendy baby booties.
Pattern includes helpful photos and instructions including notes on all the techniques described.

For Women Who Want The Ballerific Life!
Lebron James and his wife Savannah are expecting their third child, this time adding a little princess to the James clan. Savannah, who is around six months pregnant, shares two sons with LBJ, Bryce and Lebron Jr.
Lebron and Savannah are high school sweethearts but officially tied the knot in San Diego this past September. A friend tells Page Six that Savannah has "always wanted a little princess," but denied the Miami Basketball Wife was pregnant. I guess the joke's on them! Savannah was spotted out on Mothers Day, obviously sporting a baby bump.
Congratulations to Lebron and Savannah on their new bundle of joy.

Congrats I am happy for them. I love Savannah
Good for them. Nice, accomplished, down to earth family.
Congrats Savannah!!!

Re: WWE: The Platinum Era
First and foremost, congratulations on a great event, you obviously put a lot of work into it.
Melvisboy's Royal Rumble Feedback
The build-up at the start is pretty amazing, so giving us a little review of the build-up for the Raw and SmackDown Main Events. This was really useful for me as a first time reviewer of your work (though I did read one of your SmackDowns last week I think, before I came back) to help me understand a little of what had been happening in the main feuds on each brand. And while the opening commentary wasn't thrilling, nor was it the highlight of the show, obviously, it's still something that's integral to the heart of the show, and you did it excellently throughout the show - this opening commentary really hyped me up for the rest of the show, and I thought everyone was dead on in terms of how they would talk. Well done. It really added to the atmosphere, and you did it a lot better and with a lot more relevance that a lot of people do when they write their commentary in their shows. Wow, I talked a lot about something so small, haha, that's a compliment to your ability with the realism of your opening, I guess!
Cruiserweight Open = great stuff, I love the cruiserweight division, there's so much that can be done with them, cause there's lots of opportunity for great, high-flying matches. Again, the commentary here was really helpful to give an impression of what the match is going to be like. Anyway, my personal favourites are Jamie Noble and Super Crazy (hence why I brought them back in my BTB) so while I would
a win for them, I'm expecting Kid Kash to retain, then you'll have Juventud return and take it from him, I imagine. Ok, the match. Nice banners, btw. Nice to see Noble kick things off, showing his brawling prowess. I'm interested why everyone went straight for Kash though - just cause he's the Champion, or because no-one likes him after he beat up Juventud? Or some other reason? Doesn't matter that much, actually. I like the build-up of small moves with unsuccessful covers, then the more crazy stuff happens a bit later. Mexicools working together, nice, same with Kendrick and London, tag team partners stick together and stuff. Ah fantastic, first really good spot of the match, no surprises that Kash took advantage, it would've worked quite well as the finish I think, but obviously it's a bit early yet, nice thinking here, suits Kash's 'shit, I need to win this match and get the hell out of here' attitude he has in this match. I confess, I don't know what you mean by 'begging off', I'm guessing you mean he's begging for them not to attack him - blimey, he just gets wailed (spelling, :/) on here, classic 'crowd goes crazy' moment when everyone beats up the heel. Everyone suddenly turns on each other, not surprisingly. Loving Noble's reversal of the Sliced Bread, I can just imagine it happening, sounds lush. Nice combo of moves from Noble, he's been man of the match so far, dammit the man was so close. Blimey, lots of great moves, just adds to the excitement, still have a feeling Kash will steal it... there it is. Perfect that he'd steal the win from Juventud's friends, and I like how he leaves his title with the referee, so desperate is he to get the hell out of there. My favourite match so far... :P
Man, McMahon was good here - now
an announcement, he really hates Shawn Michaels, then. He sounded like himself, especially in that last paragraph, when he kinda gets lost thinking about Wrestlemania, and how much it means to him. The challenge of eliminating Shawn Michaels makes the Rumble more exciting cause I want to find out who's gonna do it and get, essentially, a push. I doubt he'll win it, but I imagine he'll make it at least past the No. 20 participant. This promo was a really good way to hype up the Rumble later. Nice job.
Yeah, nice little promo, and while not overly necessary, it adds to the 'MICKIE YOU FREAK GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME FOR GOD'S SAKE' angle you're doing, at least that's what I gather. Correct me if I'm wrong. I imagine you'll turn Mickie heel (unless you're gonna surprise us all) and then there'll be a match for the title at Wrestlemania. So I'm predicting a Trish win. The match itself was actually very entertaining having read the whole of it, some good moves in there, particularly liking the sleeper hold moment, and I was impressed by the Spinebuster, I didn't know Trish did that kind of thing, but I like it, Divas need the credibility I think. The way Victoria stopped herself from hitting Mickie with the belt and the 'Mickie tells Victoria to put the gold down for some reason, yelling at her not to do it. Was she looking out for Trishs safety?' makes me think Mickie is a heel, I thought she was Trish's friend, so I don't understand why it would be strange that was looking out for her. OH! I (somehow) didn't see it coming, but Trish hitting Mickie is just screaming Wrestlemania. Hehe, you put Widow's Pear, oops. Victoria goes to win the match with her deadly fruit...
haha that's so good. Anyway, back to the match. Good finish. After a great match between them, it's nice to see Trish finish it off so well. Mickie's not angry? Bet she is... If there's not a heel turn down the line, I will be
Another 'Vince wants HBK out of the Rumble' promo. That's cool. You just keep hyping that Rumble, fine by me, you need to have some in-between promos cause there's no ad breaks. Triple H was really good here, I especially liked the 'I didnt actually see you there ...' 'Right, because I wasnt there. Go on ...' It was really good, very much the Game being all business, as was his thing about eliminating anyone who gets in his way. Good promo, length was fine too.
Ok, this should be a good match, despite Henry being in it, and he's not known for being entertaining, more just plain brutal, but Batista being there should make up for it, and I'm hoping for some good power moves. I would expect this start, the mind games and the strength contests. 'Batista absolutely peppers his face with some BIG right hands' I love this kind of language, much more entertaining than 'Batista punches Mark Henry a couple of times'. Thanks for that, you're making it interesting to read, rather than a chore, which it might be for some people. Actually, while I'm on the subject, this match has really highlighted how good your vocab is with this kind of thing, like 'caving in' and whatnot to give us a good impression of just how strong Henry is. Jesus, Henry is beating the hell of Tista here. Moving on a bit, that Spinebuster sounded beastly, nice one, I'm not surprised he kicked out, I'm still waiting for a Batista Bomb. ...World's Strongest Slam! This surprised me, come on, must be a Henry win... Ok, that surprised me more. Even
surprising is the DQ ending, which suggests you're gonna carry this forward to Mania. Brutal assault, ouch. Ok, this isn't over, then. Looking forward to next SmackDown. Good match, not amazing, but in terms of storytelling it was very good. A lot of the match belonged to Henry, which normally would be fine, but you did make the World Heavyweight Champion look a tad weak. Apart from that, it was good.
Wow, very meaningful promo - I like it. It highlights HBK's desire to win and whatnot, and he was spot on in how he spoke. Having not followed your BTB, I don't quite know about the whole Michaels vs McMahon angle, but obviously it's a pretty big thing, I see. This was the best promo so far, well done. I cannot
for the Rumble.
Blimey, that match did its job - it annoyed the hell outta me. Not cause it was bad, it was great, the reason it pissed me off was cause Cena had that thing
won! Well done, you got Edge and Lita over as heels perfectly, I was so nearly yelling at my screen for the pair of them being cheating scum, but I held back, cause, well, it's BTB. Great match, of course Edge was gonna win it, with Lita and the cheating and the fact that he just won it and whatnot. No offence... I'm getting kinda tired, I've been at this for ages, I'm gonna take a break, :P...
Ok, back, let's carry on. This Angle interview was pretty immense - it was emotional, it was intense, it had everything it needed to have to get across just how much Angle wants the WWE Championship. It was really good. Nothing more to say. Best promo of the night, beating the HBK one.
Now, the moment we have all been waiting for. Michaels is No. 1. Jordan is No. 2. Let's get underway, I'll just comment on stuff that needs commenting on, I'll try not to just narrate. Michaels only comes up against relative jobbers at first, takes them all out, Helms is a breath of fresh air, though I don't seem him lasting long, though he'll do better than HBK's first lot of opponents. It's good to see the number of participants rising without anyone leaving, just so there's more action. Finlay gets some credibility by kicking some ass with the shillelagh, which I love... Ah, that's why you let the numbers get up, so you could have Lashley unleash... Spearcity, as you called it. Nice. Rey with the traditional Rey elimination, of Tomko, whose held his own in this one, actually. Obviously, as soons as Kane arrives there's gonna be some eliminations, so naturally we see two in quick succession. Perfect heel antics from Kennedy, and hitting Mysterio of all people with the mic adds to their feud nicely. Hm, it's just occured to me that Helms is still in there... in for a nice push maybe? Anyway... wow, I was expecting Benoit to outlast Helms, shock me why don't you, plus by Masters as well... intriguing. RVD... woohoo! Man, I'm really getting into this match. Having RVD on a roll as he gets in is good, show that he's back on form. Wow, now I just went crazy. Kane AND the Big Show? Hell yeah. That was amazing, Lashley is on fire. Beautiful. As you said - fuck off, Goldust. Ooh, revenge for RVD, gets rid of 'Lito, I would guess there's gonna be a feud between them after this, even just a short 'you sidelined me, I'm gonna kick your ass' one. Same with Rey and Kennedy, feud to continue after this one with
elimination. Oh yeah, btw, Orton's RKO session was very good indeed. It reminded me that HBK's still in it, which I'd forgotten. Somebody attacked Angle? Looks like he won't be winning it. Oh man, talking of Helms having more guts than brains, it's Angle who's bleeding and still trying to take part in the Royal Rumble... Oh, I just realised that's
what Joey Styles then said, my bad. We're so alike, me and Stylesy. Mystery attacker? Angle did mock Cena before, but it wouldn't be him, he'd just endured 25 minutes of having Edge and Lita screw him over. Right, Angle kicks some ass despite being essentially half-dead, good to hear
, and then more big guns come in, Flair, Taker - I think I can guess who's No. 30. Anyway, Taker beats the living crap out of everyone, unsurprisingly, and then eliminates JBL, (I did say I wouldn't narrate but I'm a liar :P) blimey, Helms, at No. 6, is
in it? Wow. I don't think he's made a single elimination, and on most occasions he's been totally dominated, but fair play, you obviously want to give him a push. No surprises on No. 30, and it looks like the Game is living up to his word... Helms gets planted... Out with Flair! Wow, Triple H gets rid of Flair, dunno if you're gonna go somewhere with that, but still it surprised me. Oh my god, the Shane bit was great, misses HBK, hits the Game, he goes out, that's so good, I love it. SHIT. Oh my god.
why you were keeping him in? Jesus. Well, he really is getting a push. Wow. That's such a buzzkill, as you said. I'm gobsmacked. Flabbergasted. <insert shocked synonym here>. Wow. Ok, back to the match, goodbye RVD... shame, would have been nice to see him win, but now I know Helms is winning, so... :P Anyway - oh man. Great elimination. Mid-air RKO off the ropes, beautiful thinking to come up with that. Haven't seen Lashley in a while, he's kinda cooled down now, shame. Good fighting with Orton... oh that figures. Royal Rumble winner 2006 Gregory Helms eliminates the best man all night, Bobby Lashley. Blimey, bet no-one put Helms in the 'final four' predictions template, did they? :P Can't really pick out anything stunning in that long passage of action, but Angle gets rid of Helms... hm. Ok then. Angle has surprised me, considering he was attacked and whatnot. Still, he was many people's pick to win, and he needs to look good, even if he's not going to. I didn't expect Taker to win, so Orton eliminating him is fine. Wow. An epic passage of action here. Really amazing. And what an ending. That Ankle Lock was intense - even I felt sorry for Orton - and the writing really made me feel I was there. I applaud you. This was a really stunning match. Especially that last passage. Really great.
Overall, this event was quite something. It goes without saying that my favourite match was the Rumble, and this review has taken me ages, but you need to know that it was a fantastic read. Well done. Honestly. The Cruiserweight Open had some great spots, and a solid ending. The women's match featured some great action, and Mickie's involvement was priceless. I'm slightly disappointed with the ending to the World Heavyweight Championship match, on pay-per-view I was expecting a clean finish, but nonetheless it was a good match. I'm sorry I didn't say more about Cena/Edge, but it was very good regardless. The Rumble was the best, I couldn't have asked for more in that one. Really, really, well done. I was very impressed. Congrats on a great event.

And when it came to designing Katie's bridal gown, Armani tells PEOPLE exclusively that he wanted the dress to match Holmes's personality.
"Katie wanted a simple, elegant dress that was rich in material with a slim silhouette," he says. "I couldn't have been more in agreement. I wanted to make it modern but at the same time, complement the sweetness and energy she conveys."
The result? An off-the-shoulder Armani gown with an ivory silk train adorned in Valenciennes lace and Swarovski beaded crystal embroidery. She accessorized her gown with an ivory tulle floor-length veil and ivory silk shoes.
More on Their Wedding
Armani also dressed the rest of Cruise & Holmes's family. Here are all the details:
Holmes's mom, Kathleen, put on a Giorgio Armani Privé evening dress in rose silk; Her neckline was trimmed with tulle and black embroidery.
Holmes's sister and bridesmaid, Nancy Holmes, wore a black charmeuse, silk-layered evening dress, with an empire waist and floor-length skirt. Her off-the-shoulder neckline was made of black lace.
Cruise's mother Mary Lee Cruise wore a silver silk Giorgio Armani Privé evening dress with rose appliqué detail at the waist and shoulders.
Cruise's sister Cass Cruise wore a deep blue velvet suit with a fitted jacket featuring black taffeta plisse details at the waist.
Robert Evans
Finally, there's Suri. For the wedding, Tom & Katie's 7-month-old daughter wore various layers of organza and chiffon, which, according to Armani, was "inspired by her mother's bridal grown."

Once again, Santa Clarita residents and businesses are being asked to pay the price for a lack of imagination by county, state and local water and sanitation leaders.
The high levels of chloride (salt) in Santa Clarita's water are not the result of anything done in Santa Clarita.
The high levels of chloride that leave the Santa Clarita Valley via our water sewage system originated up north, where 50 percent of Santa Clarita's water comes from.
The ingredient in Santa Clarita's own groundwater is not at issue here; it's the State Water Project water that carries the high level of chloride.
Calls by the Los Angeles County Sanitation District to solve the problem on the backs of ratepayers in a manner that ignores the origins of the excess chloride is a perversion of policy and justice that has become the hallmark of water and water treatment leadership in California.
Chloride levels and the punishment that has been exacted upon Santa Clarita ratepayers is one of several reasons that I have decided to run for my local water board, Castaic Lake Water Agency Division 1 (those who buy water from Santa Clarita Water Division).
There are numerous ways that chloride levels can be reduced and even some strong science that suggests that the worst way to control those levels is at the point of delivery, which is what is being proposed.
Hopefully, the numerous public hearings that will be held on the matter will help our leaders see that this matter has not been fully thought out and requires alternatives.

One up-and-coming trend investors should be aware of is wearable technology. It's best-known these days in the form of activity-monitoring wristbands from Nike and Fitbit, Google Glass, and of course Apple's long-rumored iWatch.
At the recent CE Week in New York City, however, Motley Fool analyst Rex Moore found evidence that serious fashion designers are joining the trend and are already putting out some interesting merchandise -- from temperature-regulating jackets to shoes made from a 3-D printer. Apple- and Android-device users can also celebrate the wide variety of fashion products for their toys, including an ingenious wearable iPad case.
The highlight of the week was the Fashion Ware runway show, produced by Living in Digital Times. Rex spoke with founder Robin Raskin about the show -- and the convergence of fashion and technology.
Who wins?
It's incredible to think just how much of our digital and technological lives are almost entirely shaped and molded by just a handful of companies like Apple and Google.

YOUNGSTOWN - The man who police say was held at gunpoint Wednesday evening by an elderly woman after he broke her into her home was arraigned Friday in Municipal Court.
Alex Melton, 26, of Mount Vernon Road, was arraigned on one count of burglary before Judge Elizabeth Kobly from the Mahoning County Jail via video hookup.
He did not enter a plea to the charge, which is a felony. He has a preliminary hearing Thursday.
Article Photos
Melton snickered a bit when an assistant prosecutor told Kobly that Melton is charged with breaking into a Ferndale Avenue home about 8 p.m. Wednesday by bursting through a window and landing on a couch.
The homeowner, Phibbie Underwood, 72, held him at gunpoint with a .22-caliber revolver and fired a shot at him that missed before police arrived and took him into custody. Melton told police he was trying to get away from someone who was chasing him.
Police Chief Rod Foley said Thursday that Underwood put on a clinic on how a homeowner should defend themselves with a gun.
''She's a brave lady,'' Foley said. ''She did exactly what she's supposed to do with a home defense firearm. Good for her.''
Underwood is not being charged.
Kobly gave Melton a $20,000 cash or surety bond. When she asked him if he needed a court-appointed attorney and Melton said he did, Kobly asked him his monthly income.
Melton said he makes about $3,000 a month as a tattoo artist but can't make that while in jail. He also said he married with two children by his wife and three overall and that his wife is pregnant.
Kobly appointed counsel for him.

KeyBank iPod Touch Checking Account Promotion
KeyBank is once again offering an iPod touch (8GB 4th generation unit according to posters on Fatwallet) on their promotions page for new account holders who open up a checking account online. The requirements for getting the iPod touch is not unlike what reward checking accounts require:
- open a qualifying KeyBank checking account online and enter offer code ONTT0311 by June 24, 2011, and
- make at least 10 payments and/or purchases per month for 3 months after account opening, plus
- make 3 direct deposits each of $500 or more within 3 months of account opening.
The 10 payments or purchases a month for three months is what I meant when I said "reward checking account"-like in terms of requirements. The three direct deposits of $500+ isn't uncommon for these types of promotions, it just makes the checking account a little "stickier."
One gotcha you won't see unless you really dig is that they charge you a $25 account early closure fee if you close the account within 180 days of opening it.
Here are the somewhat longwinded terms & conditions:

I wish more people were vegetarian.
More meat for us.
Seriously though, like stated previously, many people get preachy and self-righteous when they feel that they've found the holy grail. I just laugh at them.
But I have a confrontational side to me as well. If I encounter a preachy vegan at a social gathering where food is present, I'll go out of my way to find some meat, and eat it in their presence, just to ruffle some feathers.
On the other hand, if I see someone eating grains or processed sugar, I don't feel the need to correct them, and I feel sad that they've drunk the kool-aid, so to speak, and usually feel sorry for them.
I mean...if you're truly confident in your way of eating and living, there's no reason to try to convert anyone who has different views. It's too mentally exausting.
If someone asks me about my diet, I'll certainly tell them. Proudly, in fact. The fact that I have good muscle tone, with less than 10% bodyfat at 46 years old is a good testament to our way of eating/living, and it certainly makes them question their own eating habits.

After a string of near-perfect films - from "Toy Story" to "Finding Nemo" to "Up" to "Toy Story 3" -- the seemingly invincible Pixar Studios faltered last summer with the lucrative but tepid sequel to 2006's "Cars."
This year's "Brave" - the studio's 13th feature - suggests that "Cars 2" was merely a speed-bump.
Indeed, nearly everyone agrees that Pixar is back on track with this appealing, deftly plotted, visually ravishing tale of a young Scottish lass who eschews the "arranged-marriage-to-keep-the-peace" routine.
Article Photos
As with "Wall-E" and "Up," the lame-looking previews for "Brave" give virtually no idea of the film's engaging, tightly woven narrative.
Even the movie itself at first appears little more than a girl-power rehash about a plucky young heroine who doesn't feel particularly feminine - who wants, in this case, to stay blessedly unattached and run through the woods honing her impressive skills with bow and arrow.
Yet within half an hour, the tale develops into something far more original and complex - something that, among other things, forces young Merida to see that her headstrong resistance to Mom's wishes was as much selfish pride as it was fierce independence.
There's more I won't reveal - except to say that the story juggles various strands and develops a good deal of tension as it moves swiftly toward a satisfying climax and resolution.
As with the best of Pixar, the savvy plotline is greatly bolstered by strong characterizations; this is most affecting in the mother-daughter conflict, and especially in the way "Brave" works to heal this rift.
The film isn't uproariously funny like, say, "Monsters Inc.," but its artwork certainly ranks with Pixar's best - keyed on verdant forests, tumbling waters and spooky Scottish monoliths in the style of Stonehenge.
Similarly strong is the rich Celtic score by Patrick Doyle, who - in his first outing for Pixar - marshals all his expertise from numerous classical adaptations such as "Sense and Sensibility" and Kenneth Branagh's "Hamlet."
"Brave" also boasts a nice post-credit scene that ties up one loose end, and - even better - a splendid opening short called "La Luna."
For me, these introductory Pixar shorts tend to be hit-and-miss, often a little too goofy or surreal for the film they accompany. This one, however, is letter perfect.
With lovely animation, a clever little story and beautifully realized characters, it's an ideal appetizer for the main dish.
"Brave" doesn't quite have the scope and verve of "Wall-E," "Up" or "The Incredibles," but on the whole it's another satisfying feature from the studio that is now working on a tasty-looking prequel to "Monsters Inc."
In any case, it's tough to dislike a film whose dialog contains the word "kerfuffle."
]"Brave" is rated PG for action mayhem and some bare bottoms.

You are one step closer to enjoying the Desiree Cousteau porn collection. On this page you can click the join button and then begin downloading Desiree Cousteau's classic adult movies from the golden era of porn. We have used today's technology to digitize the rare and hard to find Desiree Cousteau films and loops. So, get to ready to enjoy a pleasurable viewing experience with Desiree Cousteau.
Desireé Cousteau (born Deborah Clearbranch in 1956 in Savannah, Georgia, U.S.) is a former pornographic actress of the 1970s and 1980s. Desiree Cousteau started out in the early 70's as a mainstream actress, landing a small part in the 1974 "girls-in-prison" B-movie Caged Heat. Her mainstream career never took off, and soon she found herself drawn into the world of sex films. Desiree Cousteau worked steadily in adult movies from the late-1970s through the early 1980s.
Desiree Cousteau received the Adult Film Association of America "Best Actress" award in 1978 for her performance in the movie Pretty Peaches, a film director Alex de Renzy considered to be one of his best. Desiree Cousteau played "Peaches", described as "a daffy carefree female who cheerfully plunges through life without any worries". In the film, she has a car accident after attending her father's wedding and is rendered unconscious. Two guys find her and take advantage of her; then offer to help her when it becomes apparent that she has amnesia. Peaches resolves to keep smiling through all the silly schemes and circumstances the guys come up with.
In Inside Desireé Cousteau, a pseudo-autobiographical film, she plays a reporter trying to dissuade the men who are interested in her charms rather than her place in the workforce. She obtains the scoop of a lifetime from a presidential candidate, then tries a stint as a door-to-door saleswoman, where she has some unusual encounters. Trying to avoid more of the same, Desiree finds a job on a luxury yacht, but gets involved with two porn stars. Desiree finally accepts the fact that sex is the outcome of any job she tries; she sets her sights on a career as a porn star and "lives happily ever after".
Desiree Cousteau grew up in a very conservative Baptist family and eventually enrolled in college in Athens, Georgia. "I was going to college and I needed to bring in some money, so I started doing some nude modeling." She then met a guy from California who became her boyfriend and later her husband. Together they moved to Los Angeles. "I moved to California and got a job as a topless dancer. I loved dancing so much I stopped going to school... My first job as a go-go dancer was at 'The Classic Cat' in Hollywood."
Desiree Cousteau's dream was to be a movie star. "I thought one of the studios would take me in and shape me up. Of course it doesn't work like that anymore, but I believed the old legends... I wore tight sweaters, went to Schwab's Drugstore [where Lana Turner was first noticed] and had a Coke but I wasn't discovered." "I discovered that you had to do a lot of fucking behind the scenes to get in front of the camera. Everybody's 'friend' wants to meet you and ball you, and they expect you to do that."
The casting couch eventually led to minor roles in a couple of B movie exploitation films - 'Caged Heat' (1974) and 'Super Lady' (1975) - but it was obvious her mainstream career was going nowhere. At the time she was still working as a stripper. "I worked for Alex [De Renzy] at his club called 'The Playpen'. I was dancing there with three other girls - we put on a live sex show. We did a lesbian thing. Sometimes it was simulated on stage, and sometimes we did the real thing." It didn't take long for Alex De Renzy to notice her beautiful figure and full natural breasts and cast her in an upcoming porn film he was directing entitled 'Pretty Peaches' (1977). De Renzy later recalled in an interview: "Desiree was my all-time greatest actress, the biggest stage presence I ever had. And that's what I look for in a girl, someone who can really carry the ball. [The girls I shoot] have to be really good sports, have big personalities and be sex-maniacs. It's a tough combination."
The movie is now regarded as a classic from the Golden Age, and included a memorable enema scene in which she squirts water out of her ass! Although this has been cut from US versions of the movie, the complete uncut film has recently been re-released on DVD in Europe. "Me and my boyfriend used to give each other enemas. We liked it. That's how I got my name Cousteau. My boyfriend gave me that name because he said I was always under water."
'Pretty Peaches' was a great success, and Desiree soon found herself starring in a string of big production movies such as 'Female Athletes' (1977), 'Ms. Magnificent' (1977), 'Daddy's Little Girl' (1977) and 'Baby Face' (1977). Although she always seemed to play the same role - that of a naive bimbo, it earned her the award for Best Actress in 1978 and an appearance in Playboy magazine.
Despite her star status and natural beauty though, Desiree Cousteau's private life was quite 'normal'. "I'm just very old-fashioned and romantic. We don't do anything strange or kinky. The only strange thing we do is, I'll get a spanking sometimes. That's always fun. Sometimes my husband just takes me over his knee and gives me a spanking. Do I do anything to earn it? No, I'm just bad, my normal bad self. I flirt with other guys when I shouldn't, and then I get it... We've been approached by a lot of people in the business to swing, but we're old fashioned and we've never done it. We've been tempted, but I don't think we will. We're happy with each other. He's got nine inches. What else could I want?"
Furthermore, Desiree never felt completely at home with the industry. Former porn star and director John Seeman recalled: "She didn't like being in the business... [She was] beautiful with big bosoms but I had trouble getting in a rhythm with her during sex. I did a few scenes with her but never could feel comfortable." Perhaps the most hostile comments came from other actresses such as Annette Haven with whom Desiree appeared to have an ongoing feud. Annette recalled in an interview: "I was doing a ménage-a-trois with Desiree Cousteau. We were supposed to eat each other and fondle each other's pussies, you know. The director was giving us instructions and Desiree would not let me touch her body! It was awful! I would not want to… work with her again."
Desiree claimed that her husband was in love with Annette Haven, and this was one of the reasons she decided to quit the industry in late 1980. "I'm married now, and my husband is also my manager. But even though we've been making good money, he gets jealous about me being with all the guys in sex scenes. And I'm jealous of all the girls he meets around porn movie sets. Like Annette Haven. He's in love with her. We fight a lot."
This, along with her constant weight problems and friction with her parents signaled the end of her career as a porn star. "My mom and dad know. There's no way I could have kept it from them after three years. They saw my pictures advertised in the newspapers and freaked. They're very conservative, Baptist people. My dad doesn't like it, my mom cries a lot. And that's another reason I want to get away from doing it. Because when I go home it's kind of embarrassing." Richard Pacheco, who also worked with her, later commented: "Desiree Cousteau was a wonderful person early in her career then hit big time trouble. She hit a wall and moved on."
In November 1980 she claimed, "The last film I shot was 'Inside Desiree Cousteau' (1979). There are some I made last year and two years ago that are just about to be released." As a result movies such as 'Delicious' (1981) and 'Sweet Alice (1983) were still being released long after she had left the industry. She was never a good actress, even by porn standards, but she looked great having sex. People in the industry may have had problems working with her, but the public loved her air-headed bimbo roles that seemed to fit her perfectly.

MMA Forum - UFC Forums - UFC Results - MMA Videos (http://www.mmaforum.com/forumindex.php)
- Standup Technique (http://www.mmaforum.com/standup-technique/)
- - Shadowboxing (http://www.mmaforum.com/standup-technique/477-shadowboxing.html)
Everbody in MMA shadowboxes, because it helps us feel like we're training when we don't have any equipment. But I've always wondered: Do you actually learn anything from shadowboxing?
hmm good question, it does help with muscle memory, but I am not sure what else I guess it all depends on how seriously you take it.
OF course it's working on your skills and combos. I shadow wrestle which helps with takedowns and sprawling and muscle memory
hmm shadow wrestling... that just sounds odd... but I understand as sadly I find myself doing stuff like that not for training just when I am bored...
Lol yep i'll just be walking down the hall and pretend to take someone down with a shot......*sigh*
yea sama here
When shadowboxing, it is not just to drill pre-set combos and footwork. When you shadowbox with intent and intensity, the point is to be facing a mental opponent and to spar with them. If you're doing it real well, your opponent will not be staying static like a punching bag. Rather your mind will make them move, attack and counter, causing you to move, attack and counter in mind. This is where you'll see folks shadowboxing in a way that developes their footwork as well as hand co-ordination. In this way, a lot of the more minute and imperceptible mental adjustments are made even prior to the actual stressed actions and reactions of an actual match.
Studies have shown that those who just go out and repeatedly train an action physically, have shown a great deal of improvement when incorporating mental training into their regiment. Whether that consists of visualization, meditation, or a forms of "shadow" training, it's significant enough to merit its usefulness.
Thanks for the insight. It certianly does work better for striking techniques then grappling. But it does wrok.
I would think that shadowboxing also significantly improves muscle tone in the right areas - a bit of a power training exercise... so not only creating muscle memory, but also proper muscle tone.

As anyone who's ever been expected to represent their entire religion/race/ethnicity/gender/world view knows, it's a pretty difficult task.
