EU Oil Manipulation Probe Shines Light on Platts Pricing
Two weeks after Royal Dutch Shell Plc and Platts changed the way more than half of the world's crude is valued, the companies along with BP Plc and Statoil ASA are being probed by European antitrust regulators about potential manipulation of oil prices.
The investigation by the European Commission shines a light on how price reporting companies including Platts, the energy news and data provider owned by McGraw Hill Financial Inc., help determine the cost of raw materials used in everything from plastic bags to jet fuel. The suspected violations are related to the Platts' Market-On-Close assessment process, or so-called window, and may have been ongoing since 2002, Statoil said.
"The industry has developed a high degree of reliance, you can almost call it dependence, on price reporting agencies," said John Driscoll, the managing director of JTD Energy Services Pte., a Singapore-based energy advisory, and former trading manager at GS Caltex. "They have tremendous discretionary power in their ability to interpret and publish prices."
Platts has been assessing the cost of oil since at least 1923 when its founder, Warren Platt, started Platt's Oilgram, a daily newsletter devoted to prices and market information. The influence of reporting companies has grown since the mid-1980s when the industry began using market prices instead of a system where they were set by international oil companies and the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.
Underpins Trading
The assessments made by reporting companies underpin long-term contracts, short-term, or spot transactions, futures settlements and derivatives. Total SA, Europe's third-biggest oil company, estimates as much as 80 percent of all crude and oil product deals are linked to reference prices including those published by Platts, while as much as 20 percent use trades on the New York Mercantile Exchange or ICE Futures Europe.
Among pricing companies, Platts assessments represent as much as 95 percent of crude trades and 90 percent of oil products and over-the-counter derivative deals, Total said in a submission to a report on oil pricing last year.
Platts determines daily prices in the over-the-counter energy markets in one of two ways, the first being transactions made online during prescribed times, known as the Market-on-Close window, a process in place since 1992 and used only for selected products that have industry-agreed specifications. The second method involves employees discussing prices with market participants each day and then determining the daily settlement.
Price Time
These methods in the so-called physical markets contrast with the daily prices seen for exchange-traded futures ranging from Brent and West Texas Intermediate crudes to Nymex gasoline, which trade almost around the clock in a forum for all to see. The principle of the MOC is that Platts determines prices at a particular time, for example 4:30 p.m. in London.
European regulators haven't specified the markets they are probing or the pricing methods in question, saying only that "companies may have colluded in reporting distorted prices to a Price Reporting Agency to manipulate the published prices for a number of oil and biofuel products."
U.K. Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg said allegations of price fixing in the oil market are "incredibly serious," while answering questions in Parliament.
Kathleen Tanzy, a Houston-based spokeswoman for Platts, today said the company didn't have anything to add beyond its confirmation yesterday that the European Commission has undertaken a review at its office in London in relation to its price assessment process.
Platts Window
Traders typically communicate information to reporters via instant messenger or telephone. Companies are under no obligation to report trading activity or partake in the MOC process. Platts also has no legal authority over them. If a company doesn't adhere to the rules or perform on a trade that it reported in the MOC, Platts can refuse to recognize its bids, offers or trades in the assessment process. The risk of not participating is that the company loses influence over the setting of prices.
Only Platts customers can view the window and any registered company can post bids and offers.
Weighted Averages
The MOC process replaced a system whereby reporters made assessments based on volume-weighted averages. This methodology, favored by competitors including Argus Media Ltd., takes into account deals done throughout the day. Platts moved away from this process because it was concerned it could result in assessments that lag actual market levels and aren't repeatable, Bassam Fattouh, director of the oil and Middle East program at the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies, said in a January 2011 report on oil pricing.
The influence of price reporting companies stretches beyond crude and oil products. The assessments published by Platts and its competitors including Argus and ICIS, a unit of Reed Business Information, are used to price the raw materials used in the $2.2 trillion global base chemical industry as well as coal, power, metals, emissions, liquefied natural gas and shipping rates.
While some traders of energy commodities such as crude, fuel oil and diesel are willing to be identified by the price reporting services, the companies trading in less transparent markets such as polyethylene, coal, LNG and metals typically provide information on the understanding their identities and those of their counterparties won't be published.
Dated Brent
High-volume contracts such as North Sea Dated Brent are well-supplied with data from traders. Other markets rely on reporters calling companies to gauge price levels, and depend on their sources being honest when they report their views. For commodities that are not traded or reported every day, price assessors can take into account information such as feedstock costs to determine the price at which trades would take place theoretically.
"Market participants are under no legal or regulatory obligation to report their deals to price reporting agencies or any other body," Fattouh said in the report. "Whether participants decide to share information depends on their willingness, their reporting policies and their interest in doing so."
Quality Premium
Platts said in March it would introduce a quality premium for Ekofisk and Oseberg crudes, two of the four crude grades that make up the Dated Brent marker used to price more than half the world's oil. The changes, which started on May 1, were designed to boost trading liquidity and to take into account their superior quality over the other two grades, Forties and Brent, which make up Dated Brent, Platts said at the time. That came after Shell made adjustments to its trading contract.
The European investigation marks the third time global pricing benchmarks have drawn the regulators' scrutiny in the past year following investigations into bank manipulation of the London interbank offered rate, or Libor, and ISDAFix, the benchmark for the $379 trillion swaps market.
The International Organization of Security Commissions concluded in October that price assessments could be vulnerable to manipulation because traders participate voluntarily, meaning they may selectively submit only trades that benefit their positions. Total said in a submission to the forum of global regulators that the published oil price is wrong "several times a year."
Argus and ICIS joined Platts in publishing a self-regulatory code in April 2012 in response to Iosco's findings.
Iosco, as the securities group is known, is checking if the industry has met standards designed to counter the threat of market abuse, Secretary General David Wright said in an interview today. The Madrid-based group drew up the rules last year, saying they were needed to wipe out "vulnerabilities" that leave the door open for market abuse.
Reduce Transparency
"Negative media coverage and fears of heightened reputational risk could cause more major trading companies to withdraw from the price reporting process, and that in turn will reduce transparency in the opaque OTC wholesale energy markets, potentially compromising the effectiveness of pricing companies," Roderick Bruce, an analyst at IHS Energy in London, said in an e-mailed statement.
Statoil is taking the investigation "very seriously" and cooperating to the best of its ability, Chief Executive Officer Helge Lund said today in an interview in Harstad, Norway.
Lund said he's been given "very limited" information about which products and markets are being investigated, adding that it's "important to underline that this is a suspicion, not a conclusion."
Bloomberg LP, the parent of Bloomberg News, competes with Platts and other companies in providing energy markets news and information.

Adolescence creates a lot of questions.
For the young person:
"What will my friends think of me?"
"What is going on with my body?"
"What should I tell my parents?"
"How will my life turn out?"
"Will I ever learn?"
And on and on.
For the parents:
"What happened to the child my adolescent used to be?"
"How much of the truth should I expect to be told?"
"What will my teenager's next misadventure be?"
"Why is my adolescent acting this way?"
"How am I supposed to respond?"
And on and on.
By impelling more independence, adolescence changes the child, the parent in response, and the relationship between them. Like any major change, by moving people from the same to a different circumstance, adolescence creates an enormous information need -- the need to know what this new and unfamiliar period of growth will be like for them individually and together.
Plagued by so much ignorance on both sides of the relationship, it's no wonder parent and adolescent both seek to reduce it by asking questions to get answers that inform their understanding and reduce their anxiety. The questions are pretty basic: what's happening, why is it happening, what's going to happen, and what should be done about it?
The problem is, asking questions is not as simple as it seems. With a son or daughter who is now acting more independently, parents ask more questions about what is going on to satisfy their increased need to know. At the same time, the adolescent has an increased need not to be known. The young person wants more privacy to protect emerging independence. Hence the working compromise: parents will have to get by on less information than they ideally would like to know, and the adolescent will have to disclose more information than he or she would ideally like to tell.
Parents often don't understand that their adolescent is resistant to questions for two good causes. Adult questions are not only invasive of privacy; they are emblematic of authority. They expose the inequity between adolescent and adult. The adolescent is expected to be answerable to the adult authority, not the other way around. Being repeatedly questioned by an adult can feel threatening and agreeing to answer can feel demeaning.
This natural antipathy to adult questions can be partly reduced if parents will keep their questions to a minimum (where immediate information is required), and instead of asking questions to get their information needs met, make requests instead. If a question can convey authority by sounding like an order, a request can convey respect by seeming like a courtesy.
So the parent says, "It would really ease my mind if you could tell me more about what happened." Or, "I would really value it if you could help me better understand." Or, "I know so little about what is going on, it would be great if you could bring me up to speed." The power of a request for information is that it respects the adolescent's right to tell. Thus, after being given information, parents express appreciation for being told.
Then there is the natural reluctance of many adolescents to ask questions. So in class, the middle school student who doesn't understand what the teacher is explaining won't ask a question to satisfy his need to know. Why won't he ask? A question is a statement of ignorance. In front of his peers, it shows what he doesn't know what he supposes everybody else must know (because they're not asking any questions), and he doesn't want to be ridiculed and put down for acting stupid.
That's why teachers (and parents) need to make clear that questions are an expression of intelligence - of the desire to learn. The asker knows enough to know what she doesn't know and is smart enough to ask a question to get the answer, making her smarter than before. As one veteran teacher presented this to her class, "when you ask a question in my classroom that means you are acting independent enough to take charge of your own education, getting the information you need by asking for it."
Unhappily, this fear of appearing ignorant is what causes many young people to keep their questions to themselves. So, rather than rely on parents as good informants about sex, and drugs, and all manner of safety issues, for example, an adolescent at home acts like she knows it all, when in fact the most she knows is unreliable hearsay from peers. "You can't get drunk on beer." "You can't get addicted to pot." "You can't get pregnant the first ten days after your period."
Parents need to offer themselves as a resource. "We don't know everything, but we have lived a long time and we may have some knowledge and experience that can be helpful to you as you grow your way along. So please ask us anything you need to know."
It's one of the hardest things parents need to do during their child's adolescence - making the relationship safe for questions. First, parents must refrain from accusatory questions: "Why did you do that?" "How could you have let that happen?" "Who do you think you are!" If parents want to create a relationship that is safe for questions, they need to ask questions in a safe manner. "Can you explain to me what happened so we can figure out what to do?"
Second, parents can also ask the adolescent self-examination questions about them selves. "Have we done something you find hurtful or wrong?" "Is there something we need to do or say differently that can help us better get along?" "Is there something you would like to ask of us?" Casting themselves as responder and the adolescent as questioner, they can empower their son or daughter.
And third, parents can encourage a mutual information exchange with their adolescents such that not only are adolescents expected to share about themselves, but parents are expected to share about themselves too. The right to question goes two ways, not just one.
From what I have seen in counseling, what tends to make adolescents receptive to questions from parents are parents who are open to questions from their adolescents. Which raises the very tough questions an adolescent can ask.
"When you were a teenager,
--did you ever do anything illegal?
--did you ever use alcohol or drugs?
--did you ever have sex?"
How is a parent supposed to answer if, the truth be known, they did do some of these things? Wouldn't making this admission be the same as giving permission? Suppose the adolescent says, "Well if you did, why shouldn't I?" It's a tough call.
If you choose to answer, however, my advice is truth with contracting. "I will agree to answer your questions about this part of my growing up if you will promise to honestly answer my questions about this subject in your life." Thus a two-way communication about a very important topic can be established.
Parents can be very credible informants, and when they share their risk taking experience they can warn their teenager away from taking those risks themselves. "It was at a high school party. I got drunk, lost control of my decision-making, had sex with my date, and paid a really heavy price. I ended up feeling used, I felt badly about myself, I put myself in danger, and I earned a reputation that was hard to live down. So from my experience, I would advise you not to drink, particularly not to get drunk, at a party or on a date. Sober is socially safest, that's what I learned the sad way, and what I believe." Thus a cautionary tale is told.
When it comes to answering hard questions from your adolescent, I believe the question parents need to ask themselves is this. "Do I have significant experience from my own adolescence that I could share with my teenager that might spare him or her from running the same risks, making the same mistakes, and getting into the same trouble?" If so, truth with contracting may be the way to go.

News about reggae music, artists, culture and more...
In response to the well publicized recent violence in downtown Kingston, Jamaica, Reggae Star Anthony B has released the following statement :
"The current situation in Jamaica has caused an enormous uproar within the entire country. In times like these, it is up to us as individuals to make conscientious decisions and stand up for not what is popular, but for what we know is right. This is affecting our country on a whole, and can greatly impact our future and our children's future. All aspects of the country's economy are at stake. And any action that disrupts the daily normal activities for Jamaicans or of life cannot be good. Being a part of the Rastafarian & Reggae community it has always been my belief that peace, love & unity are what uplift a nation. And as the old Jamaican saying goes, 'united we stand, divided we fall'. So we all need to work together to resolve this as soon as possible, and bring back the "irieness" to our sweet little Jamaica! Jah Love!"
Along with the statement Anthony B has also released a very uplifting single for the masses, produced by Lazeme Music, 'Sweet Jamaica' and he is also currently offering it to fans for free. Besides being more than fitting for the times, the song just may be some of the chanter's finest recent work. Simply click the link below to download the song :

Already a WEMM user? Log-in here
What is the Workplace Emergency Management Manual (WEMM)?
WEMM is a simple online tool that assists small to medium workplaces to create plans for emergencies. It is based on Australian Standard (AS) 3745-2010 Planning for Emergencies in Facilities. This tool is the first of its kind in Australia, and is designed to make emergency management planning more accessible for smaller businesses that may not have the resources to undertake extensive emergency plans.
Workplace emergency management planning:
Why do I need it? All workplaces have potential risks that expose them to emergencies. Workplace emergency management planning will:
Workplace emergency management planning demonstrates a genuine regard for employee welfare, as well as reduces disruption to business operations.
Victorian Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004, (Section 21. Duties of employers to employees) states:"(1) An employer must, so far as is reasonably practicable, provide and maintain for employees of the employer a working environment that is safe and without risks to health."(This includes during emergency events and extends to visitors, customers and contractors)
How does it work?This online tool takes you through the emergency management process step-by-step, creating a customised manual for your business.
The online account registration process includes a WEMM reference folder which will be posted to you. You can save your tailored manual as a pdf or print it and insert into the folder as a complete, professional Workplace Emergency Management Manual. You may update the manual and print it as often as is needed for the term of the registration.
How to get started?Simply log-on to WEMM today, and make your business better prepared for any emergency.
This tool was created by the Metropolitan Fire & Emergency Services Board, Melbourne, in partnership with CGU Insurance and E3 Learning.
The Australasian Fire and Emergency Services Authority Council (AFAC) recommends monthly testing of smoke alarms to ensure they are working correctly.
Only working Smoke Alarms save lives.

Best Place to Gamble
So you've got the weekend open, and you feel like sitting down at the tables for a bit of gambling. But where to go? The Indian casinos? Not bloody likely. Native-American gaming commissions do not run like Vegas. You will, in other words, get taken for all you're worth, sooner or later. What about SunCruz and those nifty cruises to nowhere? Now you must really be out of your mind. Go gaming in unregulated international waters? So where does one go to hold on to the outside hope of actually coming home a winner? Simple. Set sail for the Bahamas. You'll want to go to the closest island possible for maximum gaming time. And while there's not much action to be had on Bimini, just a few miles away is Freeport on Grand Bahama Island. Sure, there are bigger casinos in the Bahamas such as the ludicrously huge, 50,000-square-foot monstrosity at Atlantis, but that's a long way away. And the Bahamia, with 20,000 square feet of gaming space, is only a stone's throw from SoFla on Grand Bahama. Rack rates are through the roof, as is typical of resort/casinos, so don't be a sucker. Stay at one of the nice little places in West End, and scooter over to your gaming for the day, then scooter back to your flophouse at night -- assuming you sleep at all, of course; there's gambling to be done! Play your cards the brilliant way you always do, you stud, and the trip will pay for itself.

About This Activity
Designed for the serious college-bound high school baseball player (current grades 9-12), this comprehensive camp groups participants according to their primary defensive position. Seven daily "class periods" focus on the subjects of defensive fundamentals, defensive specialty instruction, hitting (including video analysis), bunting, base running, and strength/conditioning. Because most high school pitchers hit, pitchers in camp will participate in all offensive stations. However, their defensive periods will be focused on drills, pitches and grips, picks and holds, fielding practice, and pitching strategy. Video analysis and two bullpen session are included.

I can't see this as a success in the future. It's ridiculously dangerous. I mean, would you really wander round streets, with something you payed (thousands?) for! And like mentioned above, traffic is a problem.
Perhaps if centres designated to this sort of gameplay were opened, like a paintball place where people run round the forest and shoot one another.
I could see a law being passed about these in the streets. Too many accidents would occur. They'd be a menace to the public.

Personalized Care Has Similar Outcome as Standard Care for DepressionMarch 7, 2013 • By A GoodTherapy.org News Summary
A common approach in the treatment of depression is that of collaborative care (CC), which integrates primary care doctors, mental health professionals, and depression care managers to ensure that all physical, pharmacological, emotional, and social needs of a client are being addressed. The depression care manager (DCM) acts as a liaison between the client and professionals to provide guidance, assistance, and monitoring of treatment. Although this approach has been shown to be a highly effective one, the outcomes among minority individuals and African-Americans in particular, leave much to be desired. The social and financial barriers that are present for many African-Americans are difficult to overcome, even with the help of a DCM. Therefore, Lisa A. Cooper of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Maryland wanted to see if a tailored CC approach, designed specifically to meet the unique needs of African-Americans, would result in better depression and treatment outcomes.
In a recent study, Cooper followed 132 African-American participants with depression and 27 primary care doctors through treatment and beyond. She assessed them at baseline and then every six months for a year and half. She evaluated their levels of depression, treatment adherence, cognitive functioning, use of mental health services, and the clients' ratings of care. Half of the participants were assigned to standard CC while the other half were provided with a DCM and assigned to the tailored CC which addressed specific concerns relative to African-American clients, including communication with doctors, negative views toward medication, and financial and insurance barriers.
Cooper found that overall both groups of participants had similar outcomes at 12 and 18 months, with all of the participants having similar levels of symptom reductions. But the participants in the standard CC had higher levels of treatment adherence, while those in the tailored CC group had higher levels of satisfaction, motivation, and higher DCM ratings. In particular, the tailored CC participants were more likely to rate their DCMs as helpful and reported higher levels of education, knowledge, and mental health counseling than the standard CC participants. Even though the DCMs were not licensed psychologists, they were able to provide much needed psychological support and guidance to the participants, especially those who would not normally go to a therapist. In sum, Cooper believes that standard CC may lead to better treatment adherence, but tailored CC leads to higher DCM ratings, which could improve treatment adherence in the long run. "However, our results do not justify advocating strongly for one approach over the other since there were minimal differences in clinical improvement between the two groups," said Cooper.

It makes so much SENSE to have all of these providers involved, but my real worry with this, and it's bad that it always has to boil down to this, but. . . how is someone with limited resources or even no health insurance supposed to be able to afford receiving integrated care from all of these different avenues? I mean, it would be great if this did not even have to come into play, but the reality of life today is that this has to play a huge factor for many people. Lots of people won't even seek help from one care giver today because of the cost so I fear just how much telling them they needed to seek help from several different providers would further push them away.
ERICMarch 9th, 2013 at 10:33 PM
Surprised that the tailored method had drawbacks in a few areas compared to the regular CC method.as it was regarding adherence, I think the reason was the clients got comfortable in the tailored method and that made the adherence hard?funny how we tend to give less importance to the things we are comfortable with.taking for granted is what I'd say has happened here.

Writer's block?
3000 PSI design. Probably 1/10 or 1/20 of that because most concrete block isn't given time to cure. Probably standard 15-7/8 by 7-7/8".
Write about silica fume concrete block, Horace, and you'll have them all snoozing…
"Let's see what to write… uh…. they're good for cars without tires…. uh…. good for keeping beds off of floors… uhhhh…. if you can pick it up, it's a personal protection device more effective than pepper spray… it's a doorstop…. uhh.. what else? It makes a good pet…. it's a conversation piece, like… what's that block doing there?… hmm… what… else?…'
Hard, yes, hard to write about.
Of course he can't write about it. It's a writer's block!
Step aside Horace, and let a professional show you how it's done:
It heavy, it's rectangular, it's gray
It's the AMAZING Mr. Concrete Block.
Use it as a doorstop, use it for an anchor, use it to crush that dwarf. ( Don't hand me the pliers )
Trying to spy on that sexy mare next door while she's out sunbathing, but can't see over the fence? Just climb up on Mr. Concrete Block. Or Ladies, is the perverted stallion next door spying on YOU in the backyard? Simply throw throw Mr. Concrete block at his head.
How much would you be willing to pay for this AMAZING home inconvenience? $30? $40 Even $50? Wrong! If you order today, you get Mr. Concrete Block for the AMAZING low price of only $9.95 ( plus $250.00 shipping and handling. )
Have your credit card, your Social Security card, and your bank account number ready and call 1-888-878-2537 today! That's 1-888-USUCKER. Operators are standing tall.
" Block Party … ! ! ! "
If it weren't, no load bearing wall would be taller than 5 stories. .
How do you get solid stone to soar skywards? Cinder block and rebar/pylons. Hurrah for the block.
(stop wasting all that paper, you blockhead – Lucy VanP)
Block around the Clock
Carl Bloch is a painter. Lucienne took pictures,
Andre juggled numbers, Eduard patched up Hitler.
You can build a fireside theater with it.
"Once upon a time there was a formed mass of concrete named Cinderblock, who lived with her ugly step-blocks and her wicked iron girder…"
Not sure how he holds the pencil, but I'm more concerned that he's holding it with only a table underneath.
surprisingly hard? It's a block of concrete Horrace, what did ya expect, eh? How about you write an article about feathers or cotton balls or something softer?
just bounce a few more ideas off it
No wonder it's hard to describe it. Horace has it laying on its side! His perspective is wrong.

Reader Brian Sullwold's mother was recently going through her attic and found something cool: a 1965 Mets program, apparently purchased and saved by Brian's grandfather half a century ago. His grandfather even filled out the scorecard, which was apparently from this Mets/Cardinals game, played on Aug. 21, 1965.
There are several noteworthy things about the program, beginning with the cover (shown above), which shows a Mets player with no front jersey number. As it happens, 1965 was the year that the Mets added a front number, after having gone number-free for their first three seasons. It's not clear if the lack of the number on the cover illustration was a carryover from the previous look or an attempt to make the illo player seem more generic by not assigning him a real player's number.
A few other things that caught my eye (for all photos, you can click to enlarge): (Continue reading)

It's great to see how well things are going in Iraq. Why just yesterday, millions of Iraqis celebrated the annual kurd-picking festival while President Shiite was named the new Prime Minister.
Kurd is a delicacy known for its pungent aroma, much like the black truffles so prized by the French but with a deeper flavor and more diverse uses. Kurds are difficult to find, generally growing among the rocks in northern Iraq, so the Iraqis hire Jews to sniff them out.
"It's a great paying job," said Moshe Ben Hassan, an Iraqi Jew who was said to have been Saddam Hussein's favorite kurd sniffer. "For generations, my family has mastered the fine art of sniffing out these elusive delicacies."
While President Shiite was swearing himself in as the new Prime Minister, a small group gathered and politely applauded. One Iraqi admitted he had been bribed to attend the ceremony.
"I'd much rather be out picking kurds," he said. He was overheard by President Shiite, who was heard to mutter, "me too."
When the kurds are harvested, cleaned, and sliced, they're used in a variety of foods from bread to rice to gruel. Iraqi women dress up in traditional garb and do ceremonial dances. One woman got so carried away that one of her breasts slipped out of her robe.
It's not clear from press reports what happened to her. Some say she was immediately stoned. Others say she was stoned before she started dancing, which is why she forgot to wear a bra. Still others say people were so excited by the sight of her breast that they gave her some hash to get stoned.

Sept. 20, 2013
FORT COLLINS—Greg Myers, one of the most decorated student-athletes in Colorado State University history, will be honored during halftime activities of the Rams' homecoming game of 2013 at Hughes Stadium Oct. 12 vs. San Jose State.
The ceremony was originally scheduled for the home opener on Sept. 14 vs. Cal Poly but was postponed because of the surrounding floods leading up to the game.
His jersey number, 3, and name will also be displayed on the press box, alongside Thurman "Fum" McGraw and Eddie Hanna during ceremonies on the field.
Myers, during his career from 1992-95, established himself as one of the school's all-time greats both as a student and an athlete.
"As one of the most decorated student-athletes in Colorado State University history, Greg epitomizes the ideals we embrace," said Jack Graham, Director of Athletics for Colorado State. "He represented our university as a person of character and integrity. Greg embraced his education with a mission to serve our country and the world. He also was a winner, who did so with commitment, discipline and hard work."
His induction into the National Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame on Dec. 4, 2012, is a fitting capstone to a remarkable career. In April of 2012, Myers was also inducted into the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame, and became a member of the CSU Sports Hall of Fame in 2001.
"It's a tremendous honor and very humbling to be recognized by CSU in this manner," Myers said. "Individual awards come from being surrounded by great teams, athletes and people like my coaches. During my time at CSU I was fortunate to have all of them."
Myers remains the only player in Western Athletic Conference history to be named first-team all-conference four years in a row, and earned Academic All-Conference honors four times as well.
Myers, who grew up in nearby Windsor, Colo., was twice named to the All-America and Academic All-America teams.
Following his senior season, he became the first player in school history to win a national award when he was named the winner of the Thorpe Award in 1995. He was honored during ESPN's College Football Awards Show in Disney World in Orlando, Fla. That same night, he also was named the Honda Scholar Athlete of the Year for his academic accomplishments, and was later awarded a post-graduate scholarship from the National Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame.
Myers helped the Rams to back-to-back WAC championships and berths in the Holiday Bowl in 1994 and '95. The Rams finished the 1994 season ranked among the nation's Top 25.
Myers concluded his Colorado State career among the school's all-time leaders in pass interceptions and total tackles. He also set he school and conference records for career punt return yardage.
Following the completion of his CSU career, he was selected by the Cincinnati Bengals in the NFL Draft, then proceeded to start in the team's secondary and later also played for the Dallas Cowboys.
Greg is now a practicing anesthesiologist in Denver, having completed medical school following his professional playing career.
The Oct. 12 game vs. San Jose State is schedule to kick off at 1:30 p.m. MT at Sonny Lubick Field at Hughes Stadium.

If there's one debate that I hear over and over again, it's whether treadmills or running outdoors is the better option. It seems to me
and this is totally scientific based upon my twitter and Facebook feeds that there is no in between. Either you are an indoor runner or an outdoor one, and when forced to run in an environment that is not your favorite, you are usually NOT a happy camper.
Is one method really better than the other? I'm honestly not sure. Any Google search of "treadmill vs outdoor" will get you about a million hits and you are certainly free to make your own opinions. You will probably get a similar workout with either provided you focus on your perceived exertion versus running the exact same pace indoors and outdoors. Most studies suggest raising the incline on the treadmill to 1% to help mimic the changes in terrain and wind resistance that you would encounter outdoors. Obviously, if you are training for a race, you should do at least a fair amount of that training in conditions you will be running in. Last I checked, most races don't occur on treadmills, so make sure you at least do a few training runs outside before race day.
While it comes down to personal preference for many runners there are pros and cons to both methods.
Treadmill Running Pros
- no worries about safety
- you can run any time of day or any season without needing extra gear
- softer surface may be easier on your joints
- you can watch TV if you are so inclined
- no weather, temperature, or issues with the terrain to contend with
- you can run faster/complete speedwork when outdoor conditions might not be safe
Outdoor Running Pros
- peace and focus on nature that you can't get on the treadmill – awakens the senses because you need to be focused on what's going on around you
- you can run anywhere – at home, on vacation, on a business trip, during your kid's soccer game
- more functional and realistic in respect to body mechanics and race-day
- generally more challenging because of changes in terrain or weather
- you need to finish your run if you want to get back home – you can't just stop
- you can find new routes if you get bored
Treadmill Running Cons
- some people find treadmill running to be boring
- your gait is different – more quads and less hamstrings which can lead to injury
- most people don't up the incline, thus making the workout too easy
- lack of fresh air and Vitamin D you would get if you were outside
- it isn't free – you either need a gym or to fork over the dough for your own treadmill at home
- no ability to practice running downhill
Outdoor Running Cons
- risk of falling, jarring on joints from uneven and harder surfaces
- may be difficult to get outside to run with family commitments
- until you learn what gear you need, running outdoors in extreme temperatures can be difficult or dangerous
- safety concerns related to traffic and, sadly, people who may wish to harm you
Bottom line – whether you choose to run on the treadmill or outside, you are benefiting your health in many ways. The key is to find which method is the one that you will use, but make sure you get outside and do some running in an environment that will mimic any races you have coming up. Also, give yourself time to adjust if you are switching methods. Make sure to set the incline to at least 1% (and some sources even say 2-5%) to help reduce the risk of injury and give yourself a better workout.
So, which method do you prefer? Any pros or cons I might have missed?

"Leaving gave me a lot of time to think about things and really just pray about my situation," Burrows said.
A 6-3, 240-pound Marietta native, Burrows initially committed to Georgia to play defensive end in the 4-3 scheme under coordinator Willie Martinez.
The 4-3 scheme left when Martinez was fired following the 2009 season. Burrows stuck to his commitment despite the change to the 3-4 defense brought forth by coordinator Todd Grantham.
Burrows was moved from his natural position to inside linebacker prior to last season.
Thoughts of returning to defensive end were the main reason behind Burrows intent to leave the program.
"I came out of high school playing the defensive end position in a 4-3 defense which is what I truly love," Burrows said at the time. "The coaching change here led to a 3-4 defense. I have worked with that transition but decided that I want to get back to playing defensive end. I think another program may give me the best opportunity to succeed at that."
Injuries and position changes have kept Burrows behind on the depth chart since redshirting in 2010.
He's endured knee and shoulder injuries dating back to his high school career, but is finally "100 percent healthy," after redshirting in 2010 and missing all of last year following shoulder surgery.
Being 100 percent healthy led to Burrows' return, as defensive line coach Rodney Garner spoke to Burrows and his family after he announced he intended to leave.
"Coach Garner presented some good points," Burrows said. "This season is going to be the first where I would have been able to compete and be healthy since coming to Georgia.
"I owe it to myself to be be here. It would be some kind of an injustice to myself to walk away at this point."
After changing his mind, Burrows spoke with coach Mark Richt after returning to the team. "I'm so happy he was kind enough to take me back," Burrows said.
Burrows will remain at linebacker, he said. He was in contact with Appalacian State and Jacksonville State before deciding to return.

Peru wants Machu Picchu artifacts returned, threatens to sue YaleBreaking News
To see those, they have to go to New Haven, Conn.
Yale historian Hiram Bingham rediscovered Machu Picchu in 1911, and backed by the National Geographic Society, he returned with large expeditions in 1912 and 1915. Each time, he carted out crates filled with archaeological finds, with permission from Peruvian President Augusto Leguía.
Today, Peru is threatening to sue the Ivy League school, claiming the permission was either given illegally or misunderstood.
The treasures of Machu Picchu, says David Ugarte, regional director of Peru's National Culture Institute, were given to the American explorer "on loan."
Peru's battle with Yale is not unique. Since 1820, when Greece demanded the return of the Elgin Marbles from the British Museum, countries of origin have steadily gotten more assertive about retrieving their heritage.
In a case last month, Italy demanded that the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art hand over the Euphronios Krater, a vase dating to 500 B.C., along with other objects.
"This is our patrimony. This is everything to us — proof that even though today we are poor, our ancestors lived great and proud," Ugarte says. "Bingham said he was going to study those pieces and give them back. It was clear to all they were to be returned."
Yale disputes Peru's claim but has offered to return part of its Machu Picchu collection.
The university, in a letter Dec. 8 to the Peruvian government, said, "The civil code of 1852 ... in effect at the time of the Bingham expeditions, gave Yale title to the artifacts at the time of their excavation and ever since."
Colin Renfrew, professor of archaeology at Cambridge University in England, says the case hinges on one question: "What was the deal between Bingham and Peru at the time?" The answer, he says, "is very murky."
Ugarte says Peru began sending Yale requests for return of the pieces — or for negotiations on the issue — starting in 1917.
The university "always wrote back with different excuses," he says. "First, they said they needed more time to evaluate the pieces, then in later years said they were studying our requests for the return."
With the 100th anniversary of the city's rediscovery five years off, Ugarte says, Peru has had enough.
President Alejandro Toledo and his wife, an anthropologist, have made retrieval of the objects a priority before Toledo, Peru's first indigenous president, leaves office in July.
The Peruvian government has notified Richard Levin, Yale's president, that it will sue if the archaeological pieces aren't returned. Guillermo Lumbreras, director of the National Culture Institute, says the case would first go to Connecticut state courts but might ultimately wind up before an international tribunal.

It will take more than a petition for a state to secede from the union. At some point, the state will have to convince people and business that they no longer have to pay federal taxes. And the state will have to defend them against the IRS. They would also have to immediately start their own immigration check points and keep the feds out of the state. The legal battle wouls go on and on.
If people and business (on a majority scale) stopped sending taxes to the fed, the fed would stop sending money to the state. This would essentially seal the deal for secession.
The process has a long way to go before we get there. If it gains momentum and starts to get serious, you can call me an immigrant.
There are still a lot of things to do without secession, such as nullification and 10th amendment fights.
The problem is Obama will get to appoint some more Supremes...and Romney's appointments wouldn't have been much better on this score.
I joined the Texas Nationalist Movement. We have to organize and get a referendum before the voters for secession. Texas could be successful on its own.
The thing that will move the key to START will be the EPA's punishment of Texas. Perry's pushing back on nobamacare exchanges is a good indication that Perry is going to be flying the COME AND TAKE IT flag.
At some point we'll be at what we call a "Mexican Standoff" and I suspect nobama will be the first to blink. If not, what the hell, I'm with Perry, thick or thin.

I have so much to tell you about in regard to chicken slippery noodle soup! The first thing is of course to explain what the heck a slippery noodle is, and I think you will be overjoyed to hear that it is like a regular noodle and a dumpling got married and had a baby. It's a thick noodle that cooks up in the chicken soup, absorbing all that delectable chicken soup flavor until it is soft and pillowy and perfect. And don't worry if you've never seen slippery noodles in your supermarket, because you make them yourself, and no fear...it's super easy! The second thing I have to tell you about has nothing to do with soup and everything to do with gardens, although there is a vague soup connection, because you know me. It always leads back to supper. Ah, supper. Let's make it! Read More & Get the Recipe
Chicken Pot Pie Sandwiches
We are huffing and puffing our way towards spring here in these parts. Winter is hanging on for dear life, and March has about 48 hours to get its act together and go out like the lamb that it is supposed to be at this point. My barbecue grill still has a 2 inch wall of snow all around it, so I can't in good conscience send the Southern husband out there yet to make anything vaguely summery-tasting, and frankly, it's still so chilly that I am still jonesing for winter comfort food anyway. So here's my effort to meet halfway between warm weather food (sandwiches!) and cold weather food (chicken pot pie!), and I gotta tell you, it may be my new favorite transitional supper.

Easy Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup
I am firmly on the side of those folks who think chicken soup is the cure for whatever ails you. From the flu to a cranky mood, chicken soup can fix it...or at least make you feel a lot better. And if regular chicken soup is good for whatever's wrong, creamy chicken soup is, well, magical. Especially if the creamy chicken soup doesn't have any actual cream in it. Good, good for you comfort food...you're feeling better already, right? Me too! Read More & Get the Recipe
Chicken Noodle Salad
One of my favorite things in the worlds is steamy, comforting chicken noodle soup. I made entire vats of it this past winter when the relentless snow was as high as our basketball hoop in the driveway. Now that we are happily in the balmy days of early summer, I've finally eased up on the soup-making...but I wasn't entirely ready to leave chicken noodle wonderfulness behind. And then it occurred to me...what's good for the soup is good for the pasta salad. As in, chicken noodle salad! Read More & Get the Recipe
Slow Cooker Beef Barley Stew
Things I love: My slow cooker. Beef stew. Barley. Coming home after a long day's work to supper that is already made and bubbling away and all ready to be ladled into bowls and eaten up. And so this recipe has vaulted to the very top of my Recipes I Love list, because it combines all of these things together into one scrumptious slow cooker full of deliciousness. AND it makes enough for leftovers! Read More & Get the Recipe
Boursin Potato Salad
I am a big fan of Boursin cheese. Before I hunkered down and got all serious about this cooking stuff, I never had a party that didn't feature a round of peppery Boursin cheese surrounded by a tidy circle of Carr's Water crackers. It felt like the height of elegance to my twenty-something self, and while I now have a few other appetizer ideas in my arsenal, I still have a sentimental corner of my heart devoted to Boursin, which still tastes as lovely as ever and is always reliably waiting for me in the fancy cheese part of my supermarket. Which is very handy, because along the way I also started using it as one of the key ingredients for a scrumptious and easy potato salad. Read More & Get the Recipe
