>Runner's World - My Event Ratings>
In short: One for the off-road trainers!In full: Just seen the montage clip for this which reminded me I hadn't done a race review for it which I meant to.This was the first time the race had been put on and fair play to the event organisers, especially as it was done by a charity and not a running club, the organisation was bloody spot on. An off road 14 mile run over mountains, down mountains, through lanes and across fields, there was a marshal at every turning. Plenty of drink stations, though I can't remember at what miles, but I think there were at least 3 of them.The course is tough. For anyone who has done the N Wales Race the Train, this is tougher! We're talking big hills, muddy tracks and rough terrain, and then some more … You get to see some fantastic views though.There was only a small field this year but I think the race wouldn't be spoiled if the field grew as the first few miles are across fields so enough distance to spread the runners out.If you're a medal lover, there was a medal at the end and a lovely bit of food laid on.Really good event, well done Cotswold Care Hospice.If anyone is interested in seeing what it was like, this is a link to a montage video:http://www.furryfeet.tv/cotswolds/venue_video.php?footprint=760Date of review: October 24, 2012
In short: 10/10In full: Did this race a few years ago (2009 I think) and since then it has grown into a MUCH bigger event but where so many races fail to keep what makes a race special when they increase the numbers, FoD has got it spot on. The organisation was so smooth, couldn't fault it.The race takes you down forest trails so the scenary is lovely. There are a couple of steepish sections but nothing to shocking. Plently of water station, lovely medals, all good, and the weather was perfect too.Thanks to all at FoDDate of review: April 1, 2012
In short: Brilliant as alwaysIn full: Thanks to Thornbury runners for putting on another fantastic Riverside Rollick. Mud seemed a lot less this year and was that a tail wind along the estuary?! Perfect running conditions, really good race.Date of review: January 15, 2012
In short: Fabulous raceIn full: Excellent organisation, lots of marshalls who I'd like to thank now as I couldn't manage more than a grunt when I passed most of them.Interesting and tough course with very friendly runners.Special mention to the marshals that picked up the portaloo unit from the mens area and moved it to the ladies queue :)Date of review: February 6, 2011
In short: Another great run by Cardiff - but too many runners this year spoilt it slightly.In full: Last year Cardiff had this race spot on, and obviously a lot of thought has gone into the new course. Overall it was very good, but there really were too many runners, the first 6 miles were a squash and so many people started waaaaaaaaaaay ahead of where they should have ...Date of review: October 17, 2010
In short: All good, well done BristlDate of review: September 5, 2010
In short: MudtasticIn full: Another great race from the Thornbury runners. Perfect weather for it, well done! Super friendly marshalls (thanks to all). A very good idea to have the stream at the end to wash off the trainers.Date of review: January 17, 2010
In short: Top raceIn full: Found this quite a toughie but lots of fun. Great start up the sand dune, I've never heard so much heavy breathing in my life as I did at the top! I'm cross I didn't have the mulled wine, at the time it didn't seem like a good idea. The stream was VERY cold at the end, I'm hoping for some heating solution next year because I'll definately be back for more :)Date of review: December 14, 2009
In short: Best for PBsIn full: Was worried to start with it would be sunny but the drizzle and rain began at the start line so that was ok, Torfaen half would be wrong if it didn't rain :) I love this race, always very friendly and the effort made at the finish line is great. The lap (and a bit) around the track at the end is always a killer. 6 minutes faster than last year, see you next year.Date of review: October 25, 2009
In short: Nice one CardiffIn full: Well done Cardiff, impressive stuff. Very well organised. Got a PB, taking me from the 1.50s to the 1.40s so very pleased. The weather was perfect for running too. Only moan, and it has to be mentioned is the queue for the baggage. I didn't have any issues getting my bag but my mate queued for over an hour!! The baggage staff were running around frantically but there needed to be a marshall there to make sure runners were in the correct queue as it was runners joining the wrong queue that was causing the problems. Anyway, I couldn't care really, I had a fab race! Whoop whoop :)Date of review: October 18, 2009

Potential problem at Mueller Park
To the editor:
Recently I went to a ball game at your beautiful Mueller Park. While there, something caught my eye while sitting on the bleachers, I noticed a big crack in the walkway concrete in front of the bleachers. As the game was going on a young girl came down and as she was attempting to walk away her toe got caught in the crack in the concrete and she fell flat on the concrete with her face. Fortunately she wasn't hurt. Maybe that crack should be sealed up before there is a serious injury.

Macpherson, James
James Macpherson 1736–1796
Scottish poet, translator, essay writer, and historian.
In the 1760s Macpherson perpetrated one of the most famous frauds in English literary history by publishing what he claimed were translations of poetry by an ancient Gaelic poet named Ossian. His efforts began as fragments of ballads and lyrics, based very loosely on actual Gaelic sources, and the success of these encouraged him to publish two longer poems, Fingal (1762) and Temora (1763), also presented as the work of the third-century epic poet Ossian. The poems were enthusiastically received by almost all of Scotland for celebrating the Gaelic, Highland heritage that was then rapidly being obliterated by changing economic and political conditions, contributing to the dominance of the English language. Samuel Johnson, however, almost immediately declared Macpherson's "translations" of Ossian a fraud, and others, such as the Scottish philosopher David Hume, soon began to question their authenticity as well. But these doubts had no effect on the popularity of the poems, which swept not only Scotland but also England and the whole of Europe. They were rapidly translated into German, French, and Italian, and Ossian was ranked second in poetic greatness only to Homer, with some critics even arguing that his works surpassed the Iliad and the Odyssey. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was an admirer, along with many other German Romantics, and Napoleon Bonaparte carried an Italian translation of the poems on his military campaigns. Macpherson's Ossianic poems were one of the great literary sensations in Europe during the eighteenth century, and his influence continued well into the next century, long after his claims of authenticity had been proven false.
Biographical Information
Macpherson was born on October 27, 1736, in the village of Ruthven, between Perth and Inverness, where his father was a farmer. He began his university studies in Aberdeen, entering King's College in 1752 and transferring to Marischal College in 1754; he then studied at Edinburgh University for a year. In 1756 he returned to teach school in Ruthven, where he wrote The Highlander (1758), an epic. He then went back to Edinburgh and accepted a position as a private tutor. In 1759, while staying with a student of his at a fashionable resort, he met John Home, a famous Scottish dramatist of the time. Impressed with Macpherson's knowledge of Gaelic, Home
asked him to translate some poetry; Macpherson returned a few days later with several poems he had translated. Impressed, Home brought them back to Edinburgh and within a year arranged for Macpherson to publish Fragments of Ancient Poetry Collected in the Highlands of Scotland (1760).
Following a much-publicized trip around the Scottish Highlands to collect more Gaelic manuscripts, Macpherson published the two epics Fingal and Temora. For years after their publication, Macpherson conducted a public debate with Johnson over the authenticity of his Ossianic poetry. The controversy was perpetuated by Macpherson's unwillingness to produce the originals of the poems he claimed to have translated; he continued to insist on his integrity while refusing to offer any evidence to support his claims. "Stubborn audacity," Johnson finally wrote, "is the last refuge of guilt." Macpherson, meanwhile, made a great deal of money from his publications, and his fame as the translator of Ossian also brought him opportunities in business and politics. He became extensively involved in the growing trade with India, served in the House of Commons, and purchased an estate in Scotland. He died on his estate in 1796, leaving an endowment of a thousand pounds to fund the publication of the Gaelic originals he still insisted existed for his poetry.
Major Works
In Fingal Macpherson attempted to provide Scotland with a national epic, as Homer did for the Greeks, or Vergil for the Romans. Temora describes the raising of a monument to honor Fingal's victories in battle. Macpherson's Ossianic poems were all written in a style intended as an exact rendering of Gaelic verse. As Robert Fitzgerald has noted, quoting from the Fragments, Macpherson deliberately reordered his syntax to sound like a word-for-word translation of an ancient language: "Bent is his head of age, and red his tearful eye. Alpin, thou son of the song, why alone on the silent hill?" Widely praised for their natural descriptions of the Scottish highlands, the poems anticipated many aspects of Romantic poetry. They also appealed to a growing European interest in an idealized primitive society. Robert Folkenflik has attributed Macpherson's popularity in Scotland to his ability to create a heroic and poetic past that his countrymen wanted to believe had existed: "The general reception of the Ossianic works, with … Highland Scots by the score prepared to state under oath that they had learned these poems as boys, shows that the country was crying out for such a past and such a poet." Many scholars believe this was the basis of Macpherson's appeal throughout Europe. The poetry not only captured a pre-Romantic mood, it authenticated and legitimized it; people found some of their most popular beliefs embodied in what they believed was an artifact from an ancient civilization, and they took comfort in the discovery of an ancient poet who had expressed ideas with which they were familiar.
Critical Reception
At the height of the controversy concerning Macpherson's sources, Johnson proclaimed that the Ossianic poems "never existed in any other form than that which we have seen. The editor, or author … doubtless inserted names that circulate in popular stories, and may have translated some wandering ballads, if any can be found." By the nineteenth century this verdict was widely accepted, and Ossian was less frequently and less widely read. "The extraordinarily fashionable almost inevitably becomes the irreconcilably unfashionable," George Saintsbury wrote of Macpherson at the turn of the twentieth century. But critics since then have been interested in rehabilitating Macpherson. Though the poems often had no exact originals, scholars have shown that they did rely on Gaelic sources; many have identified Gaelic sources for Macpherson's poetry and have established the existence of stylistic and structural similarities. For most critics, fraud is now too strict or harsh a verdict. Though the poems were not what Macpherson claimed, they still remain an important contribution to Scottish, English, and European culture, and critical discussion has turned from the issue of authenticity to exploration of the poetry itself. As Peter T. Murphy has written of Macpherson: "What he did with the inheritance of the Highlander is nothing worse than absorption, that respectable bardic activity … He adapted the Gaelic tradition to the modern world."

[In the following excerpt from his landmark study of Macpherson's influence on German Romantic poetry, Tombo surveys the history of the poet's popularity in that country.]
Almost a century and a half has elapsed since the literary world of Europe bowed to a new offspring of the poetic muse that many thought would be immortal. The poems of Ossian were assigned to a 'natural genius,' whom men of unquestioned literary sagacity placed next to and even above Homer. Now they are almost...

[In the following excerpt from an essay first published in 1916, Saintsbury discusses the poetic merit of Macpherson's Ossianic poems apart from the issue of their authenticity.]
It has been said that it requires considerable critical exercise or expertness to appreciate, in any critical fashion, the charm of Gray's Elegy. It may be added that even greater preparation is required before any modern man can really appreciate Ossian. The penalty of enthusiastic...

[In the following excerpt from his book-length study, Thomson offers a detailed examination of the Gaelic verses Macpherson used to create some of the central scenes in his epic Fingal.]
Fingal is probably to be regarded as Macpherson's magnum opus. Some of the shorter pieces may claim a greater felicity, and indeed the lack of architectonic power which [Matthew] Arnold attributed, with some justice, to the Celts, and particularly to Ossian, may be attributed to Macpherson also. But when...

SOURCE: "The Style of Ossian," in Studies in Romanticism, Vol. VI, No. 1, Autumn, 1966, pp. 22-33.
[In the following essay, Fitzgerald shows how Macpherson's literary style was shaped both by his exposure to Gaelic sources and the necessity of making the poetry sound like a translation.]
When James Macpherson published his Fragments of Ancient Poetry, Collected in the Highlands of Scotland in 1760 at Edinburgh, he presented them in a form that undoubtedly had a good deal to do with the remarkable success of the little volume. His rhythmic prose, with its simple syntax and exotic and profuse imagery, had the appeal of novelty; and this style was easily preserved...

[In the following essay, Dunn argues that The Highlander, a long poem Macpherson published as a young man under his own name, demonstrates a commitment to Gaelic history and his Highland heritage that predates his "discovery" of Ossian.]
In June of 1760, Macpherson's Fragments of Ancient Poetry was published anonymously with a short preface by Dr. Hugh Blair, who was then at work preparing his lectures on belles lettres. A warm commendation from the pastor of the High Church of St. Giles assured the volume attention at least in the...

[In the following essay, Folkenflik argues that eighteenth-century English culture made literary forgery both practically and imaginatively useful for several different writers, including Macpherson.]
It is no accident that the later eighteenth century was the great age of literary forgery. Macpherson, Chatterton, Pinkerton and Ireland (Steevens is perhaps another case) share a world which made forgery an innovative answer to a difficult series of questions which faced the wouldbe artist. The circumstances are fairly...

John L. Greenway (essay date 1975)
SOURCE: "The Gateway to Innocence: Ossian and the Nordic Bard as Myth," in Studies in Eighteenth-Century Culture, Vol. 4, 1975, pp. 161-70.
[In the following essay, Greenway offers a reinterpretation of Macpherson's Fingal, maintaining that the poem functions as a "mythic narrative."]
Few now tremble at the dauntless heroism of Fingal, and none of us, I fear, are tempted to don Werther's yellow vest and share the misty signs of Temora. Indeed, the noble passions of this Last of the Bards have been treated with a neglect less than benign. Though we no longer read Ossian, we do read writers who, convinced of his authenticity, attempt to recapture what they imagine...

[In the following excerpt, Simonsuuri examines some of the literary and philosophical preconceptions that underlay the enormous popularity of Macpherson's Ossianic Poems in the eighteenth century.]
The view that folk poetry and popular culture have an interest of their own and are worthy of serious attention gained acceptance during the middle years of the eighteenth century. Scholars hunted for genuine folk epics. They looked for evidence for the workings of...

[In the following essay, originally delivered as a lecture in 1980, Sher argues that Macpherson's "translations" of Gaelic poetry were in some part the product of a group of literary figures in Edinburgh with whom Macpherson was associated and who provided the financial and intellectual support that made the project possible.]

[In the following essay, Murphy places both Macpherson's accomplishments and the controversy surrounding them in the context of the Scottish sense of national heritage in the eighteenth century.]
James MacPherson was once a famous man, famous for translating Ossian's poems. If he is remembered now, it is for forging the Ossian poems, with the emphasis on the forgery rather than the poetry; but mostly he is hardly remembered at all. If literary memory is founded on quality, then the turgid prose of these "poems," with its thick syntax and grand, vague...

[In the following essay, originally delivered as a lecture in 1986, Colgan traces some of the contemporary influences on Macpherson's poetic vision and argues that Scottish intellectual culture bears at least some responsibility for his literary deceptions.]

[In the following essay, originally delivered as a lecture in 1986, Leneman describes how Macpherson's poetry influenced the Scottish perception of the Highlands.]
In the first half of the eighteenth century the Highlands held no appeal for Lowland Scots. The scenery had no attraction, as evidenced by descriptions such as Daniel Defoe's 'frightful country full of hidious desart mountains.' The language was considered barbarous...

[In the following excerpt from his book-length study of literary forgeries, Heywood examines the evolution of Macpherson's fictitious historical vision.]
To understand fully Macpherson's making of history, it is necessary to look at his forgery as it evolved. Like Chatterton, the historical vision manifested itself accumulatively with each new item. The forgeries were a process. The focus of our analysis in this...

I have found Navitas Goji berries to be top quality. They don't get stuck to each other the way some other brands do. And they are very sweet, you just have to soak them in warm water for thirty minutes and then rinse them. They swell up and soften very readily.
Go with gojis

I like this brand of goji berries better than others I've tried. They're not all stuck together in a clump, so they can be sprinkled or measured-- great texture. I put the berries in smoothies, shakes and in my cereal. Yum!

I love to put Goji berries in everything from salads to cereal, and these are even great as a snack. Goji's are loaded with vitamin A, iron, and protein, and Navitas Naturals offers them at a great value. They taste fresh (i.e. not stale) and have a handy resealable bag.

Flute World
America's #1 flute specialty house since 1983.
Curves composed by Ian ClarkeWritten for 3 Flutes and PianoIncludes score and partsCurves is a title that emerged early on in the creative process inspired by some of the thematic material. The piece was sparked by the occasion of a 2011 flute faculty concert at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama and the encouragement of fabulous flute collegues Philippa Davies & Sarah Newbold with whom first performances were given along with Jan Willem Nelleke on piano. The imaginations of the title, synonymous with countless aspects of the natural world - not least human form, and human cultural expressions from art to mathematics - lead to a limitless playground of feelings that this piece only begins to explore.

The WWF International Arctic Programme and UNEP GRID-Arendal, with the financial support of the Norwegian ACIA Follow-up Programme, invite you to participate in a 3-day international workshop Building Ecosystem Resilience in the Barents Sea Region.
The workshop will be held from the 22nd to 24th of March 2006 in Murmansk, Russia.
The Arctic Climate Impact Assessment (ACIA), released in November 2004, documented that the Arctic is warming much faster than the rest of the Earth. It detailed how the impacts of arctic climate change will affect the rest of the planet, outlined the profound changes expected to occur in arctic vegetation, wildlife and human societies, and devoted a chapter to the concepts of vulnerability and resilience.
A resilient ecosystem is one that can withstand "shocks" and still maintain its essential functions.
While there has been considerable academic discussion of the terms "resilience" and "vulnerability", few practical examples exist of what can be done to improve an ecosystem's ability to withstand the stress of climate change in combination with industrial development and other factors.
Due to the scale of the expected impacts, there is a need to incorporate climate change into all aspects of conservation planning.
The Barents Sea is one of the most productive marine ecosystems in the world and among the most biologically diverse in the Arctic. WWF has identified the Barents Sea region as a priority for biodiversity conservation, and climate change as a major issue in the conservation strategy for the region.
The organization is currently compiling proposals for field-based projects in the Barents region addressing practical approaches to building ecosystem resilience to climate change.
Based on this background, WWF and UNEP GRID-Arendal have chosen Murmansk as the venue for an international workshop with the following main goals:
The workshop will be useful for local, regional and national environmental managers, especially from Norway and Russia; government, business and NGO representatives working in the Arctic; members of scientific institutions and universities; and representatives of indigenous peoples and community organizations.
Dates: March 22-24, 2006Location: Murmansk, Russia.

Sony Ericsson, which has been losing money and market share in the recent quarters, plans to add more focus on smartphones and multimedia handsets after the new chief executive officer Bert Nordberg takes the lead later this year.
On paper, Sony Ericsson has a lineup of phones that are appealing to almost everyone: to music fans, to photo fans, to business users and to casual users. However, in reality the company's Walkman phones are less popular than more expensive Apple iPhone or Nokia MusicXpress, Cybershot cannot compete against Nokia N-series and smartphones are not as successful as RIM's Blackberry, HTC's devices or Nokia E-series among business users.
The outgoing chief executive officer Hideki (Dick) Komiyama has done some changes and initiated several new projects within Sony Ericsson and later this year the company is projected to unleash a brand new lineup of smartphones. However, to further transform the company, Sony and Ericsson have decided to change the leadership of their joint venture.
Bert Nordberg, currently executive vice president of the Ericsson Group and head of Ericsson Silicon Valley, will join Sony Ericsson as co-president effective 1st September and will become president on the 15th of October. Mr. Komiyama will retire from the company at the end of the year.
"The Sony Ericsson transformation programme I began over a year ago is more than half way completed, and I am pleased with what we have achieved so far. I believe it is the right time for me to begin transferring the leadership of the company to a person who is able to complete the transformation programme and lead Sony Ericsson through its next phase of development," said Dick Komiyama.
In addition, Howard Stringer, Chairman, chief executive officer and president of Sony Corp., and a member of the board of Sony Ericsson, will become chairman of the board of Sony Ericsson on 15 October. Mr. Stringer will succeed Carl-Henric Svanberg, president and chief executive officer of Ericsson.
The new chief executive officer of Sony Ericsson clearly sees his role at the company and claims that open-source platforms and mobile content business are very important for the firm going forward, which may indicate that Mr. Norberg sees consumer smartphone market as a key to success.
"I am very pleased to be joining Sony Ericsson. With the growing importance of open source platforms, applications and content in the mobile handset industry, I believe the experiences I have gained in Silicon Valley will be very relevant to Sony Ericsson's business going forward," said Bert Nordberg.
One of the interesting projects that may be crucial for Sony Ericsson is the highly-anticipated PlayStation phone that will bring comfortable video gaming experience onto the market of mobile phones. The question is whether Mr. Stringer, who is head of Sony, will allow the joint venture to use the brand.

quote EicheOh that's so true! I'd forgotten about pokemon yellow changing the pikachu cry. Didn't mind it, but I think that you'd have to have all of them one way or the other. If some were proper anime cries and others weren't it'd sound really bizarre and kind of take something away from the experience. I'd prefer it if they kept them all as the bleeps and squirks rather than going fully voice acted.Yeah, thinking on it again back in the days of Yellow Pikachu's "PIKA!" cry sounded very out of place. Then again, all other cries were still beeps and such and I had played Red and G/S many times before playing Yellow. :L
quote Poketrainer_JayThis would be awesome. A bunch of weird jingles and squeaks just doesn't cut it for me.What if GameFreak were to replace the Pokemon Cries in the game with Pokemon cries from the anime.
quote Enthquote Best Player EverYeah, intro. What it was saying was subtitled even. The intro was not gameplay footage.quote KanonPIKA PIKAAs far as the games are concerned, Pokémon do not squawk their names, so this addition would be twisting established canon.

The state's voters don't support the president's initiative, poll finds.
WASHINGTON -- Many Michigan residents may be suspicious when asked in general about President Barack Obama's proposals for gun control, however, they appear to support the specific recommendations.
A poll by EPIC-MRA of Lansing, Mich. -- released exclusively to the Detroit Free Press and WXYZ-TV, Detroit -- shows majority support among state residents for prohibiting the sale or possession of so-called assault weapons, banning high-capacity ammunition magazines and requiring background checks for all firearm purchases.
Those are three of the top suggestions made by Obama last month in the wake of the December school shootings in Newtown, Conn. But when asked in general how they felt about "President Obama's proposed changes in national gun laws," 44% of respondents said they were opposed, compared with 42% who were in favor. Fourteen percent were undecided.
STORY: Obama challenges Congress to pass new gun regulations
STORY: Gun control poll shows mixed results
Taken together, those results suggest that when it comes to people's opinions about gun control and the Second Amendment right to bear arms, very little can be taken for granted.
For instance, Beverly Ballew, 59, of Grosse Pointe Shores, Mich., said while she could support increasing background checks, limiting certain high-capacity ammunition magazines and prohibiting access to anything that could fire rounds repeatedly with a single pull of the trigger, she remains suspicious of any proposals Obama puts forward.
"I don't trust him No.1," she said. "No. 2, I'm very supportive of the Second Amendment."
For the poll, EPIC-MRA surveyed 600 Michigan voters between Feb. 5-10. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.
Despite splitting over Obama's proposals, respondents supported banning high-capacity ammunition magazines by a 58%-38% margin and prohibiting the manufacture, possession or sale of "semi-automatic assault weapons, such as the AK-47 or the AR-15, 54%-43%.
The margin was even higher for requiring background checks for all gun sales — with 86% in favor compared with 12% opposed.
Rob Harris, the media director for Michigan Open Carry, a group which advocates the legality of unconcealed possession of firearms in public, said the results show how potentially misleading the issue — and the terms used in the debate — can be.
"Most people that you would come across in society today don't know what an assault weapon is," he said. "If you ask a general person, they're going to say it's a machine gun, and that's not the case. ... It's a scary word that scares a lot of people who are not in the know."
Steve Dulan, with the Michigan Coalition for Responsible Gun Owners, said many of the definitions applied in the gun debate have "been an attempt to mislead people on this issue."
"I don't think that's even in question," he said.
Unlike a fully automatic weapon — such as those used by the military and some law enforcement — a semi-automatic assault weapon still requires a shooter to pull the trigger to fire each round. So-called assault weapons typically don't require a shooter to manually load another round, and gun control advocates argue their military design is antithetical to sporting uses.
Proposing a return of the assault weapon ban that expired in 2004, Obama said last month that weapons such as the rifle used in a shooting at an Aurora, Colo., movie theater last summer "when paired with high-capacity magazines" have "one purpose — to pump out as many bullets as possible, as quickly as possible."
"These military style weapons, there's no reason why anyone outside the military needs them," said David L. Garrett Jr., 68, of Bloomfield Hills, Mich.
With a doctorate in chemistry, Garrett — a retired chief materials engineer at General Motors and Delphi — said he has no problem with firearms for sport, but semi-automatic weapons and high-capacity magazines should be banned. He doubts it will happen, though.
"With the Republicans in office (and holding the majority in the U.S. House), not a chance," he said.
The EPIC-MRA poll showed that while self-described Democrats broke by a better than two-to-one margin in favor of Obama's recommendations and Republicans by a more than two-to-one margin against, independent voters were split 40% in favor, 42% against. Slightly more than half of men — 52% — were opposed to Obama's proposals, compared with 38% in favor and 10% undecided; 45% of women were in favor, compared with 36% against and 19% undecided.
"I think it just shows that while Americans are united in their support for the Second Amendment it needs to go hand in hand with keeping guns out of the hands of dangerous individuals," said Zach Pohl, executive director of Progress Michigan, a liberal activist group.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (326 votes).
In short: Great race, thoroughly enjoyed it and will definately be back!In full: This race was such fun. The hills, mud and water only made it better. The atmosphere was great, the marshalls as usual did a great job and fellow competitors were really supportive and encouraging, especially the man who convinced me to put in a bit of a sprint at the finish.Date of review: February 24, 2008
In short: Great countryside, good atmosphere - with mud, water and hills into the excellent mix of terain!In full: First time I have done this event and it lived up to the reviews. A great setting, good organisation and well signed and marshalled. No distance markers but that might have been more depressing than helpfull. If you want a good multi terrain challenge this would take some beating, the closest I know of would be the full monty but that is definitely shorter. I'd recommend it, and will hopefully be back again next year.Date of review: February 24, 2008
In short: As ever great fun,, what more fun could you have on a sunday morning. Date of review: February 24, 2008
In short: excellent raceIn full: First time running this race and I wasn't dissapointed, organisation and marshalls excellent, also supporters great.Could have done with more toilets as quite a long queue, even with getting there early.Great cakes. Date of review: February 24, 2008
In short: great funDate of review: February 24, 2008
In short: Excellent race although easier than the Rough and Tumble 10 due to the considerably drier conditions. Marshalling was exceptional and atmosphere was goodDate of review: February 24, 2008
In short: Excellent and challenging experienceIn full: A very challenging race with a whole mix of obstacles along the way. A very enjoyable experience and a good training session for the London marathon. I thought the organisation was very good. Date of review: February 24, 2008
In short: Barking mad race for barking mad peopleIn full: You know you are in for one hell-of-a run within the first mile and it just gets better/worse after that. Don't do this if you are scared of heights or are agrophobic. A very good atmosphere and well worth the effort. Will be there for the next one.Date of review: November 10, 2007
In short: Happy days!!! tough but well worth the journey and getting upDate of review: April 2, 2007
In short: I thought the R & T was tough enoughDate of review: March 21, 2007
