Rated 5 out of 5 by Palmettopete from Great taste and no caffeine I ordered this coffee for my wife and she loves it. But, guess what I love it too. I don't always drink decaf but this one has such great taste and I enjoy it myself.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Roberta44 from The Best!! I love my Tassimo machine and the variety of beverages that it makes. But I do have a favorite and it's the Lattes; both regular and decaf. I buy that regular latte pods in bulk and get free shipping but when I do want a late night drink the decaf Espresso pods are perfect.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Maxxxxxx from Great expresso Gevalia expresso, both regular and decaf is the best I have ever tasted. I make lattes with it with real milk. I am more times than not disappointed when I order a latte in a restaurant, especially knowing how good it should taste.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Purist from Recommended I got this for my husband who was told to stop having caffeine. Going from regular coffee to decaf used to be a huge sacrifice. Not with this! When we tried it we could not believe that it was decaf. The flavor was so rich that we could barely tell the difference between this and the regular Gevalia espresso that we were using. Highly recommended!

Is there a hot water option so I can make an Americano?
I want a decaf caffe americano. I found the decaf expresso disc, but is there any way to make this into an americano?
You can use the yellow cleaning disc to dispense hot water only.

Do these pods work in a commercail tassimo coffee maker?
My office has a Tassimo coffee maker. My wife bought Gevalia pods and the machine does not read the pod and asks for a pod to be inserted.
Hello ChuckTopinka - These t-discs do not work in our Tassimo Pro brewers.

will this product become available again
I have been unable to get both the expresso and expresso decaf for around 3 months now. Will i have to resort to buying a new machine from a different manufacturer to serve expresso at my dinner parties in the future?
It looks like the Gevalia Decaffeinated Espresso is available now on this web site...??

This measure divides the room distribution into two equal parts: one-half of the cases falling below the median number of rooms and one-half above the median. In computing median rooms, the whole number is used as the midpoint of the interval; thus, the category "3 rooms" is treated as an interval ranging from 2.5 to 3.5 rooms. Median rooms is rounded to the nearest tenth. (For more information on medians, see the discussion under "Derived Measures".)

Crosslake School superintendent resigns
Tami Martin, executive director, superintendent and K-8 principal of Crosslake Community School, handed in her resignation and accepted a job as superintendent and elementary school principal at Gibbon-Fairfax-Winthrop (GFW) schools, about 30 minutes south of Hutchinson.
"(There's) excitement to go, and yet my heart is heavy because I love everything happening here, and the community and parents and staff," Martin said.
Martin has been with Crosslake Community School for five years. She said her new position is a good fit with the next steps in her career.
Martin said that while she's leaving, everything is "in place to move everything along that we've worked hard for."
Ronda Veit, school board chair, said she's sad to see Martin go, but remains confident in the school's position and strength.
"We're sorry to see her go, she's done a lot for this school," Veit said. "The school board will make sure her replacement keeps us on track and we're confident we'll do that."
The board is accepting applications through May 29. Martin's last day is June 30.

I assume a "fogger" is needed. How much are they and who makes them?

I assume a "fogger" is needed. How much are they and who makes them?
You can order a Burgess propane fogger from Cabela. (www.cabelas.com)It sells for 69.00 plus shipping.
Also if you are having a little trouble finding FGMO, just go to your local pharmacy and buy the mineral oil they sell as a laxitive. I looked up mineral oil, USP and it has the same chemical makeup and specific gravity as FGMO. A pint should be less then $2.00, just make sure it's not flavored and has USP on the label.
I hope this helps and good luck with the bees. I just started beekeeping this spring and find it fasinating!
Lowes has propane burgess fogger for $59
True Value Hardware sells the Burgess Fogger also. I think that if you research back in FGMO files there was question about using mineral oil from the Pharmacy and Dr. Rodrigris advised against it. Check it out.
Dr. Rodrigris was talking about the price, and that it might be cheeper to order it on line.

I just won the auction for an FAL. I guess that makes me a FAL'er or is that FALacy? Either way it's an STG kit on an Enterprise receiver. In fact, exactly it is:
"STG kit on Enterprise receiver with Rhodesian handguards, pistol grip, buttstock and grenade sight. The seven US parts are: receiver (Enterprise),trigger (DSA), sear (DSA), hammer (DSA), flash supressor (DSA), gas piston (Tapco) and charging handle. Also comes with STG handguards, bipod and 20rd mag shown in photo."
Did anyone on this forum build this one? I think that I got a fair deal on it, and I'm hoping that it is all that it is advertised to be. We'll see when it arrives. Expect a range report soon.

Holidays in Dakar!!

Hide lines
Even Toulouse is sunning in comparison to Bristol but spending the winter holidays on the beach cannot be compared to anything!!!especially when you are with your family!
As you might guess from the above I have loved my holidays with my family in Dakar!
We took the car everyday and ventured in the street of Dakar; first into the known market of Sandanga, then into the chaotic area of Medina and eventually right outside our neighbourhood into Ouakam. Street life in all of these area plays its role in different ways but they are all crazy and great
The people are very nice and caring if you get on their good side otherwise they might be ruthless because they realise they are not going to do business with you but hey, it's a bit like this everywhere!!! Life is hard especially in a tourism driven country...
Otherwise, with m parents we enjoyed the sun by going to the beach and into the swimming pool but the water was actually not that hot, definitely not as hot as in Bali and Malaysia!! They are good surfing spots
We went on a safari and saw lots and lots of animals especially giraffes and a rino!!! We even went to touch it! Well I only touched for a few seconds until it moved and I got scared to get hit!!
Our special Christmas present was also a special entry on my wish list: since I am working in Toulouse in flight test, I really wanted to fly and that's what my dad organised for us!! We went flying in a Piper with 4 seats over the peninsular of Dakar, over the islands near by, over the Pink lake (where the Paris Dakar used to finish) and then over the port and the main part of the town. We went before the sun went down so the light was beautiful and it's a really good memory. For the record, I flew the plane for a little while but only when we where going in straight lines!!!
The rest of the holidays went pretty quickly. We went to the Pink Lake and were the only tourists around. It was great. We went swimming into the ocean and then into the lake. It is a special lake because of its colour due to some algae and also due to the amount of salt it has. We were floating!!! It's strange feeling but you don't realise immediately and then when you get out you realise you are covered in it... Mmmm... interesting!!!

Patriot's Perspective: Adult Basic Education leads to GED degree
At the start of a new calendar year it is often the time for making a resolution related to a life change.
Earning a GED — General Education Development diploma — could be one of the most important life changes you could make if you do not have your high school diploma. The GED is considered to be equivalent to a high school diploma for many uses: military entrance, admission to a college or employment eligibility. The 2013 calendar year is going to be a significant one for GED completion.
The Minnesota Department of Education, Adult Basic Education (ABE) program will be changing from a paper and pencil test to a computer based testing process for the GED starting Jan. 1, 2014. There is a one-year long window of opportunity for people who have started working on their GED to finish.
All five sections of the current GED test must be completed with a passing score before the end of 2013 to earn a GED under the current requirements. Partially completed GED tests will become invalid with the 2014 GED test release.
Starting in 2014 the GED test will also become more rigorous and costly. The math portion of the test, for example, will be comparable to the MCA (Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment) score required for regular high school students to complete before graduation.
There are five sections to the GED test: Math, Reading, Writing, Social Studies and Science. An adult learner must pass all five parts of the test to earn a GED diploma. Taking the test can be done one or two sections at a time or by taking all five sections. There is a fee to take the GED and it can only be taken at a GED Test Center.
The local Pequot Lakes ABE program meets one evening a week. Adult learners are given instruction in the areas where they need to boost their skills in order to pass the GED test. The ABE teacher is a licensed Minnesota teacher.
Adult learners are given a pre-test to determine what they need to focus on for their learning skills. Once the pre-test is completed the teacher begins to work on an individualized educational plan.
Motivated learners can do work outside of class and set their own pace for completing their learning. Periodically the learners will check their level of learning with post-tests or practice tests for the GED. Once the score is in line to pass the GED, the adult learner is ready to sign up for the test.
ABE is free program investing in adult learners to assist them in gaining the skills needed to succeed in today's world. ABE can also provide basic skills enhancement classes for learners who need goal-specific, work-related basic skills such as math, reading and computer literacy.
This service is not focused on earning a diploma or preparation for the GED. The computer skills need to focus on skills needed for employment. The work skills learners need to have a referral to ABE from the local Work Force Center.
The mission of ABE in Minnesota is to provide adults with education opportunities to acquire and improve skills necessary for participation as productive workers and members of their family and community.
Now is the time for ABE learners to work hard and complete the test before the testing requirements change in 2014. Call Pequot Lakes ABE at 218-568-9200 to get started on your path to getting the GED.
(Julie Despot is Community Education director for the Pequot Lakes School District.)

This was an atrocious day for officiating at this game. The Browns got some very bad calls against them, the worst was the defensless reciever call, 2 guys hitting him legally and still a flag UGH!
Dallas is playing with 12 Men (Ref's) not Luck, but Fact !
Last edited by BillTheGreek; 11-21-2012 at 07:16 AM.
But hell yes that was an ugly game that the Browns totally should have had but instead did more to get the Cowgirls in winning FG range than the Cowgirls did themselves.
But GOD how I wanted them to lose with the Philthy having spit the bit earlier would have given the Giants some much needed wiggle room in the division.
The Browns fight hard every game yet they rarely win. Must be frustrating being a fan.
lol, it sounds like to me in here that alot of disgruntled giants fans are starting to get worried bout Dallas. jerry owns a ref or two in his pocket? lolololol.....pure desperation vibes on yalls part
Miles Austin catch-sorry but this was NOT a catch. if you watch the ball in his hands, he clearly does NOT have full posession of the ball. he juggles it in his hands as he brings it into his body and if you people cannot see that, then i suggest you get some glasses.
Yeah & if he would have fumbled the ball you would have cried that his forward progress was stopped! Can't have it both ways playa. And the Cowboy did grab the horse collar, then his hand slipped down & grabbed a handfull of dreds! Replay clearly showed that. Miles also fumbled as well. It's all good though, Browns blew a 13-0 & 13-3 4th qt lead & didn't deserve to win that game.
Will say that if the Boys play vs the Skins like they did vs the Browns, it will be a blowout win for the Skins.
If Dez had've fumbled while still going forward I would have complained about him not securing the ball. He was never stopped and was still moving forward when the whistle blew. Again the audio could have been off, but Dez is literally moving forward when they blow the whistle...
(Thanks to CowboysZone member, hairzic)

Over the Back
Mon Sep 22, 2008 3:00 am
Overlook Mountain sits at the southeast corner of the Catskill Mountains rising above the Hudson River Valley. It has been flown since the early days of the sport, but to the best of my knowledge no one has flown a hang glider there in a decade or more. I have been pestering the locals the past year or so about all the others sites within a few hours drive. This one was always recalled fondly by anyone who had ever flown it. There was just one problem. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation had purchased most of the land, and closed the road to the top. Hiking in was the only way to launch now. This would require some sweat equity. A little over two miles in, and 1400 feet up.
I added it to my wish list, and waited. This past Saturday everything came together. Cool autumn air so I would avoid heat exhaustion, and thunderstorms. A gentle southeast wind, clear skies, and all on my day off. I dropped a post to our local list inviting others to join me on my lark. Dave C. and I met up at the base of the mountain in the town of Woodstock(Yes
that one
). We packed up my car and headed for the trail head. I had a compact kayak carrier, that would fold up and fit in my harness. We lashed our gliders and harnesses to it and began our trek.
After only a hundred yards it became clear that this would not work. While the monstrosity would roll smoothly back and forth, it still required us to drag the it uphill. Between two gliders, harnesses, water, lunch, various electronica, and the carrier itself, we were pulling 200 lbs. We shuffled gear, walked 30 yards, reshuffled, walked a little more, until we split the load in two. Dave took the harnesses and set off for the summit. I got the glider rickshaw. The next two hours were a blur of burning calves, and growing thirst, as my water was in the harness bag with Dave. The main relief was my sudden rockstar status. Every hiker that passed me, stared perplexed at the ungainly contraption, until I uttered the magic words.
Then the trail magic began. I would set my load down for a minute, and while I caught my breath, I answered their questions. Most wuffos on the east coast have never seen a hang glider in person, so they tend to be in awe. You can't help but soak it in and rediscover the initial wonder that drew you to this sport in the first place. Then just as quickly they would continue on up the trail and I would resume my slog, but renewed by the encounter.
Eventually I reached the ruins of the overlook hotel just below the summit. I set my load down just as a hiker headed down the mountain brought me water. Dave had reached the summit, and sent it down with them for me. I sucked back the liter in two swigs, and headed out to find Dave. I was operating on the memory of pilots who had not been here in 10 or 20 years. When I came across a side trail that vaguely matched a recollection, I veered off into the brush. Twenty yards on I came to a clearing in the forest with a steep drop off. I had found one of the launches!
I had also found that some trees had grown up to block it. It would only require a small pair of lopers and about 30 minutes to get it ready to launch,
I had permission from NYS DEC. With a heavy heart I resumed my hike to the summit and the fire tower.
Where I found Dave walking down to meet me. We broke out the food and ate under the tower. I don't remember what it was, just that it was amazingly good. We then climbed the tower to check out the topography and the true wind direction. Dave had talked with the
fire tower stewards
and gotten directions to the old cliff launch. My spirits lifted, we set off down the trail to retrieve the gliders and get setup at the cliff. The hikers at the summit were buzzing as we gathered our gear by the cliff. Dave and I began to tune them out as we focused on our preparations. That's when Murphy struck. Dave discovered that one of his base tube bolts had fallen off, and we had no spares.
My heart sank as I looked at Dave. We had no safe Plan B for him. Then Dave did an amazing thing. In an instant, he put it behind him, and focused on helping me get ready to go.
Just back from the cliff is a small area where people camp, that will allow no more than two gliders at a time. Even then you have to thread them through trees to get to the cliff.
As I setup up thermal cycles blew straight in to the cliff and rustled the trees overhead. My breathing slowed as I forced myself to relax, focus on my routines, and ignore the gathering crowd. By the time I was pre-flighted, hang checked and ready to go, dozens of hikers had packed the cliff area.
While moments before, during my hang check the conditions were perfect and straight in, I was greeted with a cross wind as I moved to launch. The wuffos oohed with each step closer to the precipice. I approached with trepidation. This was to be my first cliff launch, and I would only go if ideal conditions resumed. Dave had cliff launched many times before at Talcott mountain. Yet we were practically pioneering a new site. Hazy memories and a decade worth of vegatation growth, made it so. I would launch if everything was just right. I spent the next half hour perched on that cliff, watching the winds hold true at a 90 degree cross. Eventually, I backed off and made the decision to break down. The chance of a cycle before sunset was becoming more and more remote, and I did not want us stuck hiking out in the dark.
The next day, as the memory of the hike receded into a hazy memory, Dave and I agreed that, one day, we would go back.

I was supposed to be on that trip...Yep you guessed it! I wussed out. With the slightest possibility of sneaking off of Ellenville mountain, (one in a million is a chance) I decided to stick it out in E-ville. End result-no heart attack, but no memories of mountains conquered and hard decisions made. Way to go Tom and Dave you guys are fricken ANIMALS!!!

That must had been the toughest decision not to go. Good for you! Being safe is much better, too bad it was such a long hike. That is the chance you took and you could had been rewarded. Sorry it was not to be.
Next time!

Wow Tom, you truly are pioneers after so many years have gone by. Can only imagine the anxiety and anticipation you must have felt prior to calling it off. Kudos to you for making the hard but right choices. Next time you decide to go, I'd love to come along (not to fly of course) just to help out.

Ah, man! Yeah, I know how Lobido feels. It was a great story and well written and I was looking forward to more about a great first cliff launch and an epic flight. So yeah, it was a bit anticlimactic as stories go but no doubt you made a good choice. You definitely need to get back up there so you can finish this story in proper fashion.
Thanks for sharing.

Incredible story! I've recently gone on a few hikes thinking Oooh... I could launch here, or there... maybe land over there..
Definately takes some serious presence of mind to work that hard and still decide to break down and slog everything back down the hill, but it'll make it even better once you do get to fly there!
Thanks for sharing!

Looks good! How heavy is that jig? Looks like it weighs more than a case of ammo for that rifle!
My 1st build. Took about 8 months to build. Tapco flat and trigger group. A little more work then I thought...But well with it ! Thank god my buddy is a machinist who made me some tools for the job.
Still working on my Polish U/F..

In Reverse 5/10/2012 2:15 PM ET Metallica fans in Prague not only got to see the band play their classic 1991 release, The Black Album, they got to see it played in reverse. The band announced before the start of their current European tour that they would play The Black Album in its entirety to mark its 20th anniversary. The reverse performance of the album's songs, however, was a surprise twist.A statement posted on the band's website, reads, "What a great show here in Prague to start off the 20th Anniversary of The Black Album! The band surprised everyone, and played it backwards! During and after 'Sandman,' it was pyro, pyro, pyro, and pyro!!! 'Sandman' had fireworks, 'Fuel' had the big flames . . ."No reason was given on why the band decided to play the album in reverse. One theory is that it allowed them to save the album's biggest hit and opening track, "Enter Sandman," for the finale of the show. by RTT Staff WriterFor comments and feedback: email@example.com News 10 Nations With The Best Maternity leave Ten Countries outside US with the Most Billionaires Biotech Stocks Facing FDA Decision In June

Pine River-Backus School Board appoints a new member, elects a new chair.
The Pine River-Backus School Board on Monday, Feb. 11, unanimously appointed Leslie Bouchonville to the vacant board seat. The board then elected Sandy Poferl as chair for 2013 on a split vote.
These decisions concluded two difficult choices in the making since January.
Monday, resident Darren Sonenstahl and others suggested the public should have appointed the new board member.
"I would like to see you decide not to fill the vacancy tonight and actually open it up to an election by the people," Sonenstahl said. "Nothing against the person you are picking or anything, it would just be nice for the public to be able to choose who they want to represent themselves."
The board discussed this suggestion, but ultimately dismissed it.
Board member Chris Cunningham nominated Poferl as chair, while Jim Coffland nominated Barb Beck. Poferl won the election with four votes — from Garny Gaffey, Poferl, Cunningham and Bouchonville. Beck received three votes from Coffland, Katy Botz and Beck.
In early January, the board rescinded the appointment of Jerry Peterson to the open board seat after learning it violated Minnesota state statute for officers to fill a vacancy if the officer had "the power to make the appointment," even though Peterson abstained from the vote made in December. Peterson was a board member at that time; he was not re-elected in November.
A board seat became vacant when John Palmer resigned in early November.
Jan. 29, the school board interviewed five candidates who applied for the position: Chas Norman of Backus, Jason Marcum of Pine River, Ann Sweeney of Backus, Peterson of Pine River and Bouchonville of Pine River. Stephanie Wynn of Pine River was also considered, but she was unable to attend that meeting.
Bouchonville was recommended for the position Jan. 29 on a 4-2 vote.
The board also unsuccessfully attempted to elect a chair in early January. Without a seventh member, the vote was deadlocked 3-3. The appointment of a seventh board member ended that deadlock.
In other business Monday, the board approved the resignation of six long-term school employees and the discharge of a seventh.
Resignations were submitted by paraprofessional Julie Cline, elementary teacher Lee Aimers, elementary teacher Sally Jones, ALC teacher Trudy Jurchen, teacher and activities director Randy Schwegel, and elementary principal Jackie Bruns. These resignations are effective at the end of the 2012-13 school year. Immediate discharge of Roxanne Sawyer was also approved.
Board members each voiced their appreciation of the resigning employees.
Poferl said, "Being on the board, that's been the hardest thing to do is to see the wonderful people and the experience they have leave us. We are very fortunate."

My biggest weakness (I say as if I were in a job interview) is that I get hooked on things and forget to go to sleep. Most often that's because I'm reading a book or playing a game of some sort — particularly on my iPad, if I'm not keeping an eye on the clock. Lately, I'll admit that the most time has been spent playing DrawSomething (see Core Dump: Draw the Line) but there are a few other apps that have kept me up past my bedtime. It's a mixed bunch: some RPG-type adventure games, some puzzle games, and a few other odds and ends. Here then, some apps to while away those hours you don't actually have to spare.

I sure know how you feel about "wasting" the batting & backing on a quilt you really don't like. Where is the law written that you HAVE to finish it. Why not put it into a thrift store bag & let another quilter discover it & may love it while you don't.
It's hard to spend so much time on it when your heart isn't in it. Nobody will put you behind bars for it & somebody else may finish it.

- Fit: Runs small
My brother lives by these shoes. So when his last pair bit the dust I knew what to get him for a gift. He did go 1 size up. Usually he gets an 11 but after his last pair got wet and dried in the sun they fit too snug. He says the 12's fit great and allows room to wear thicker socks. He assumes after getting wet this winter and spring they will also shrink slightly. His feet stay warm and dry for the most part and they are comfortable.
Merrel Moab Mid Gor-Tex
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs large
- Size Bought: 12
It is a very comfortable boot. The loop on the boot make it east to slip on when sitting in the tent. I have had 3 pairs and have had to return all because the last separates for the sole within 6 months of routine hiking. For a person that hikes rocky and root filled trials this may not be the best option. For the weekend hiker it may work well.
My go to hiking shoe.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: 10
This is probably my eighth pair of the Moab shoe. Also bought the mid-height version. I wish they would last a little longer. The soles seem fine, but I wear out the liner at the heel. I've tried to switch brands, but nothing is a comfortable for me as this shoe.
Same here love the shoes. But my heel got ripped up! Shows. Not even 9 months old. That is my only complaint as well. Would you know if Merrell can fix them or a shoe maker maybe? Or are they pretty much done for?
Nice looking shoes
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
I bought this as a gift for my dad and he love them. Looks pretty nice, and very comfortable. Highly recommended.
Reliable and Versatile
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: 10.5
I prefer a more minimalist shoe and this is my go-to hiking shoe. I have used them in the mountains, down in the desert, during rain, sun, and snow. After years of use they are still in great shape, with the inside losing a little of its cushion but still very supportive. My favorite feature is the waterproof gortex on the outside, this keeps your feet extremely dry during wet conditions. I even use this for snowshoeing with gaiters when it is to hot for big snow boots. A perfect pair of hiking shoes for any condition.
Not As Good As I Expected
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: Runs small
I purchased a pair of Merrell Moab GTX XCR Shoes, December, 2013, hoping that they would be as comfortable and durable as my first pair of Merrell's and certainly better than my previous pair. Unfortunately, these shoes did not perform consistent with my hopes.
With moderate use the insides of the shoes collapsed and lost all cushioning effect. As with my previous Merrells the shoe basically broke down even though the exterior of the shoes are intact and not falling apart. Perhaps my expectations were excessive but I had hoped they would have retained their internal structure, support and cushioning just like my first pair of Merrells but they did not.
I will be in the market for a different brand of hiking shoes.
so far so good
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
only 4 stars because I have only had them a few weeks, but so far they have been great.
I have only put about 25 miles on them in the woods, but they have been ideal so far for a lightweight hiking shoe.
I got to hike in a downpour for a couple hours in these and they indeed stayed dry, and this was a heavy rain.
i typically buy size 13, so i did the same with these. They fit well with midweight hiking socks. It might be a bit smaller than some other 13's I have, but about the same as others. Its about the same as some size 13 vasque shoes I have.
If you dont need the ankle support of a boot, these might be for you.
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: 13
This ones on me. Bought these quite a while back did not try them on as I had owned a pervious pair for several years till I beat them to death and were a decent fit so when I purchased these I did not bother to try them on put them aside until recently. Do not know what Merrill changed but these are greatly undersized for these to fit I would have to jump a full size and go to a wide width. Learned a lesson on this one try them on as soon as you get them. This pair will go to the mission.
Runs a bit small
I normally wear a 10 1/2-11 shoe. Dress shoes are usually 11. I got these in 11 but they were just a bit too small to wear with even mid-weight hiking socks. My strong advice... go up 1/2 with these shoes. I'm now getting an 11 1/2. Other than that, great shoe!
All around good shoe
I use these shoes all the time for hiking and on sample collections. Living in the south sometimes you can find yourself in wet and muddy conditions and they shoes hold up just great! Beware that your foot will get hot and sweat, but If you take care of them accordingly, you'll never notice.
Hey ThrasherH!
Welcome to the Backcountry Community! Thanks for the review!
Great Shoes, Can be HOT
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
These shoes are fantastic but buyer beware: they will get HOT due to the waterproof feature. They are great and super durable and sturdy but can be miserable if worn during a summer hike, as is with most waterproof boots.
Good Shoe!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I've put my pair through many years of heavy use. I used them as my everyday shoe for the last 8 years. They look pretty rough now, but that's what happens when you actually use it.
These shoes are very comfortable, and have a nice thick sole. Never had a problem with traction on most terrains, they let you go where you want to. The waterproofing works great, shallow creek crossings don't slow these down. The Gore-Tex is very nice, my feet never have felt overly hot, even with thicker socks on.
Great shoe that will last no matter how you treat it!
It's nice to hear that someone has this kind of experience because the last 3 pairs I have gotten deteriorate within 8-12 months, separating where the rubber toe cap meets the fabric part of the upper on the lateral side of the shoe. Curiously the right shoe failed first on 2 pairs. My partner has had a similar experience with the last 2 pairs we got for him. The first pair lasted better-than-two years which makes me think quality control has vanished with this manufacturer OR they have shifted to using inferior materials/no longer care about customer satisfaction. These are too expensive to be such shoddy shoes.
Good short hiker.
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
- Fit: True to size
I got these for my husband. He loved them right from the get go. They fit perfectly and said they work great for hikes around 10 miles or less.
Solid short runner
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
I have always been a big fan of Merrel, but have only had the taller over ankle shoes. These are my first pair of the low tops, and I'm still happy with the way they work / feel. My first impression I was surprised by the ankle stability even though they were still low tops. Which is great because I tend to use these for short trail runs (around 5 miles) and have worked great. The waterproofing is great, just gets your feet hot. Like really hot. If its a toasty day, my feet are on fire by the time the run is up, but that is to be expected for such solid waterproofing.
I really like them, and only avoid wearing them when its really hot.
Trusty Stompers...
The Moab GTX shoes in their natural habitat.
Zion National Park - west rim trail
Merrell Moab GTX
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: Runs small
I wore the radius for over ten years and now am finally changing to the Moab.
I used them around the house and town for a few days to get accustomed to them. So far, I did a few short hikes (4 - 7 miles). Seems like a good shoe. They feel quick and agile. Traction may be slightly less than the Radius. They were noticeable slightly less grippy on wet rocks.
I like the shoes in many ways including agility when hiking.
Birthday gift
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
I gave this shoe as a birthday gift and received feedback saying that it is the most comfortable shoe they ever wore.
great shoe
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have worn these heavily on and off trail for two+ years.. only one problem
the sides began to wear out and I believe something poked through the Gore Tex and thus became non waterproof. found this out in the snow..
I've found this to be a common problem with Merrell's shoes. It has happened to me in three pairs after heavy use. I still love their fit, but this is a regular problem I have experienced.
over time everything wears out... but yeah, the fit. I sleep in these things. (even though the smell)
Worth the money
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: True to size
Just got back from a two day 20 mile hike at Half Dome in Yosemite Valley. Got these shoes 2 weeks before hand and did not really have time to break them in. Shoes were great. Very impressed how well they gripped hiking up steep rock.
Favorite lightweight hikers
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
These are awesome shoes. Recently just took them out to summit Squaw peak in the wasatch, and they performed beautifully. Provide lots of traction and support. Midsole is stiff enough not to feel all the rocks on the trail poking into your feet. Plus the gore tex adds piece of mind that if it happens to turn wet, your feet won't be. Great shoe, well done yet again merrell.
What is the maximum pack weight you can...
What is the maximum pack weight you can carry and these shoes remain stable?
that really can depend on your ankle and led strength. I have carried 30 lbs. wearing trail runners... these have greater stability. so just be safe!
Wear a 13w in most athletic/tennis shoes...
Wear a 13w in most athletic/tennis shoes and 12w in loafers, etc. So, I find myself in between sizes in looking to buy the Moab GTX XCR. Would you size up to a 13w or stay with a 12w? In my case I'm not sure what "true to size" really means. Probably a 12.5w which doesn't exist. Even though I understand all boots fit different feet differently, just looking for a little general guidance. Thanks guys.
Hi Jim, if you're mainly buying these shoes for hiking and outdoor recreational activities, I would say go for the size 13. For me, I usually like to have a mid-weight sock to accompany such events and going with the upper size would fill the shoe better than if it was too tight.
you could go up a half size, if it exists, and like Andy says, use a mid-weight sock- very important.
Try Fits socks, also Wigwam is good, let alone the smartwoo brand as well.
Write your question here...is the MOAB...
Write your question here...is the MOAB Waterproof-J88629 The Same as the MOAB GTX XCR?
Yes it appears to be the Beluga color of the Moab GTX XCR.
Hello, 1. Do these shoes run true to size...
1. Do these shoes run true to size ? i usually wear 9.5
2. are they lightweight hiking shoes ?
All the Merrel's I've had ran true to the size for a medium width foot. Some shoes felt slightly better in a half size up but only if the fit was for a heavy weight sock. They are right in the ballpark of maker's lightweight hiking shoe options with (to me) the important Vibran and Gore brands as I have been disappointed in the past with shoe's with other waterproofing or soles. Good luck!

Welcome aboard.
Hello all. My name is Chris. Just wanted to drop in and say "Hi." I recently purchased a Walther P22 for myself and my g/f. I wanted to get something we could take to the range and have a little fun. Just shot it for the first time yesterday. Probably ran about 250 rounds through it. The g/f loved it, as did I. It's all clean now and ready for the next round. Haven't taken any pictures of it just yet, but hope to in the next day or 2.
Welcome aboard.
Never argue with drunks or crazy people.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by Common Sense, Feb 9, 2013.
Is it that cut and dry?
Going by Spotrac,
He received a 4 million SB with an 8 million guaranteed contract.
He also received 2.8 total salary from 2011 and 2012 which would leave 1.2 of his 3.0 million base salary in 2013 guaranteed.
4.0 + 2.8 = 6.8
8.0 - 6.8 = 1.2
8M Guaranteed
The contract was signed in Dec 2011; therefore, the 2011 base
is not part of the guarantee.
Guaranteed money already paid:
4M Signing Bonus
1.0M 2012 Base
Total = 5.0M
Guaranteed money remaining to be paid 8M - 5M = 3M.
2013 Base Salary = 3M
2013 Base Salary Guaranteed = Yes.
If we cut sensy you have to add the ptorated signing bonus and guaranteed money.
The prorated signing bonus will be 2.4 million and has 1.2 left guaranteed. That's a 3.6 cap hit if released. Also you do count 2011 since it wad an extension and is psrt of the length of contract.
every post gets more depressing. if i have to see this bum one more time in a cowboys uniform....
No, just because 2011 is part of the contract, does not mean that it is part of the guaranteed money. They can choose to guarantee any year that they choose and not guarantee any year that they choose. For example, the year 2014 is part of the contract and it is NOT guaranteed.
Including 2011 in the guaranteed money would be meaningless when the contract was signed in December of that year.
The remaining prorated signing bonus is 2.4M. If released as a June 1 player, the cap hit from the remaining prorated signing bonus would be:
They can't split the guaranteed base with a June 1 designation; therefore, adding in the 3M guaranteed base salary, you have:
If they could trade him, then the guaranteed base would go to the new team and his all of his remaining prorated signing bonus would accelerate into the 2013 cap. This would be:
The only reason the 2014 isn't guarnteed is because after 2013 all 8 million has been paid. 1.2 million left in guarntees and his salary is 3 million in 2013. simple math
where did you get this info because its wrong, You do not put what year is guaranteed and whats not. You guaranteeing 8 million then your first 8 million is all you get. It was an extension not a new contract so that counts in the overall contract. same with Church new contract. They took an extra 2 million hit this year after extending Church.
2011 year counted. He signed a 6 year deal, it was a 5 year extension.
see 2011 is part of the 6 years so it counts.
you can't get to his 25 million without adding 2011
8 million guaranteed- 4 million bonus= 4 million
2011 salary 1.8 million
2012 salary 1 million
2011 plus 2012= 2.8 million plus the 4 million = 6.8 million
8 million - 6.8 million= 1.2 million of guaranteed money left
prorated signing bonus has 2.4 million left
800,000 over the next three years
2.4 million plus 1.2 million =3.6 million if cut
I can still see us releasing him. He's just a burden back there.
Where's AdamJT13 when you need him? I miss that guy, he's awesome with salary cap stuff.
Xwalker is solid with this as well.
12/9/2011: Gerald Sensabaugh signs a 5-extension worth 22.5M with a 4M signing bonus and 8M in total guarantees.
Spotrac is not always accurate. You can find the original report around the internet. Here is on article that reported the extension:
Here is the breakdown of the extension. It does not include the salary that he was already making in 2011 which was 2.5M. Everything in bold is guaranteed.
(click twice to enlarge)
Looks like, thankfully, 2013 is his last year as a Cowboy.
Great job! It's so much easier to read in this format.
I'm sure AdamJT13 will share his annual salary cap post with us here well before free agency begins in March.
I do happen to have a post from Adam last year about Gerald Sensabaugh that I saved when projecting the 2012 Cowboys' cap.
So Sensabaugh's 2012 and 2013 base salaries were guaranteed for injury but only become fully guaranteed if he is on the roster at the start of the new league year.
So it looks like Dallas can release him this year, if desired.
It just has to be done before the new league year starts March 12th.
I don't know if the team will cut Sensabaugh loose with Barry Church coming off an Achilles' and Matt Johnson remaining a mystery.
Then that's actually a smart contract guarantee by Jerry. Who'd a thunk?
Yea that was added to his 2011 which made it a total 6 year 25 million which you still count the year the extensions was started. Your looking at it wrong as a new deal, but since it was an extension you have to count 2011 since it was a 6 year 25 million contract
They just added 5 year 22.5 to the 2011 contract, which makes it called an extension so you count 2011.
I have no idea what you're talking about. Why are we "counting" years?
It was a 5 year extension to an existing 1 year contract.
The extension was 5 years, 8M guaranteed with 4M as a signing bonus.
The original contract was 1 year, 2.5M. The 2.5M was guaranteed when the 2011 season started.
The total is a 6 year contract with 2.5M in year one and 22.5M in the 5 year extension.
The numbers on spotrac are wrong. They don't even add up. They lost $750,000 somewhere.
In that case, I find it highly ironic that Jerry Jones considers Rob Ryan's defensive scheming "fundamentally unsound" yet sees nothing wrong with structuring contracts so that it costs $3M to keep a player or cut him. Seems like Jerry's forgetting about a fullback out in the flat somewhere.
That's the basic structure of most contracts. Nearly everything written is a three year deal in practice with it costing you $$ to release a guy before the third year, and you breaking even or coming out ahead after that.
So what you are saying is that every long term contract in the NFL is fundamentally unsound.

I just might rather have Lenny Harris over Willie Harris.
Stubbs ground out on the first pitch. Hanigan sees 7 pitches and pops out. Willie Harris pops out on the first pitch. Their pitcher throws 9 pitches ang gets 3 outs. Unbelievable.

-Beano Cook
Reds do nothing in the seventh.
Now Chapman will get to pitch with the team behind.
I hope Dusty satisfied his goal to give Bronson more confidence. He certainly hasn't achieved the goal of holding a three run lead.
Yeah this one's completely on Dusty.
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
If you get 6 innings from BA and have the lead, history should tell you to get him out of there. Then you have Dusty...
"You only have to bat a thousand in two things; flying and heart transplants. Everything else you can go 4-for-5."
-Beano Cook
He was simply left in too long. His manager didn't protect him.
Most pitchers have a point where they need to come out. I don't blame the pitcher if the manager lets him go too far. That's what happened today.
No, I don't blame Arroyo.
If you can't leave a pitcher in when he's in the 60's, when can you leave him in? He should have been allowed to start the inning, there was no reason not to let him. He was left in way too long though.
In that spot, it's ok for BA to start the inning on a short leash with the bullpen ready.
Here, the pen was not ready. BA was given a long leash.
The Marlins' fifth run was handed to them. By then BA was being crushed. There was a man on third. Yet, he wasn't removed.
That's not the way to handle a pitching staff, sorry.

Reviews of this property
Susana and her mother were wonderful, available hosts. I've been to Madrid many times and often stay with friends, so it was nice to have my own place in Lavapies. The apartment is modern, spacious for two people and located within walking distance of the metro and many major sites - I didn't use the subway all weekend! Highly recommended hosts and apartment.
It was our fantastic decision to choose Susana's apartment. It's comfortable , very nice and well equipped. Located in the down town of Madrid, on Saturday night a little bit noisy (as there are a lot of bars/restaurants in the street) - to be honest it's typical for Madrid, nothing to worry about ;-)) Our hosts: Susana and Jose were very helpfull. I strongly recommend this apartment.
The great success have stayed in this fantastic and welcoming apartamento.Esta in a nice area and all the places we moved we could do on foot due to its strategic location. The treatment and disposal by the unbeatable home. We have "our" site for future stays in the capital.
Gran acierto el habernos quedado en este fantàstico y acogedor apartamento.Esta en una zona muy agradable y a todos los sitios donde nos movimos lo pudimos hacer a pie debido a su situaciòn estratégica. El trato y la disposiciòn por parte de la casera inmejorables. Ya tenemos"nuestro" sitio para futuras estancias en la capital.
An excellent apartment. Quiet, convenient, comfortable and very quiet. Everything is very new and spotless. Highly recommended for a few days in Madrid.
Un apartamento excelente. Tranquilo, bien situado, cómodo y muy tranquilo. Todo está muy nuevo e impecable. Muy recomendable para pasar unos días en Madrid.
The apartment is decorated with fine taste and lacks detail, has everything you need, and very well maintained. Moreover, the situation is very good, 10min retirement, Puerta del Sol plaza mayor ... in the center of Madrid. The owner, Susan, is very friendly and we send a lot of information before you go. The next time you come, repetire fixed!
El apartamento esta decorado con muy bien gusto y no le falta detalle, tiene todo lo necesario, y muy bien cuidado. Además la situación es muy buena, a 10minutos del retiro, puerta del sol, plaza mayor... en pleno centro de Madrid. Su dueña, Susana, es muy amable y nos mando un montón de información antes de ir. La próxima vez que vuelva, repetire fijo!
We had a great stay in a small but nice apartment. Great location! Just steps from Station and Reina Sofia. Well cared for.
Wij hadden een prima verblijf in een klein maar fijn appartement.
Prima locatie!! Steenworp van station en Reina Sofia.
Goed verzorgd.
Newly refurbished typical Madrid apartment building of late 19th century. The architect has kept the strong character of the apartment with two south facing double window doors onto balconies above a pleasant street. Ideal location within short walking distance of the museums, RENF station and the old town. Shops, bars and restaurants all within 100 metres. Interior is brand new Ikea style, very comfortable. Staying here is a much better way of seeing Madrid than a five star hotel. Owner is very helpful; excellent personal attention and communication.
I've been almost a month Susana's apartment. My pleasure it's treatment. The apartment is spotless, new and with all the details to make your stay pleasant and comfortable. The building is newly renovated. Definitely a great place to rent.
He estado casi un mes en el apartamento de Susana. Ha sido un placer el trato recibido por ella. El apartamento está impecable, nuevo y con todos los detalles para hacerte la estancia agradable y cómoda. El edificio está recién rehabilitado. Sin duda un gran sitio para alquilar.
J'ai reservé une semaine pour mes parents, ils etaient ravis ! Logement impeccable et très bonne communication avec Susana !
Un apartamento muy mono. Montado con mucho gusto. Pequeño pero mucho más acogedor que un hotel. Se encuentra en un barrio con bares, restaurantes y muy típico. Está a 5 minutos del Museo Reína Sofía, de la estación de Atocha, del Retiro. La anfitriona te recomienda lugares adonde ir y si no sabe lo que le preguntas, se informa y luego te lo dice. La hora de salida según nuestra hora de salida del tren. Es decir, todo muy positivo.

Kay Hassan uses his work to explore the charged quotidian aspects of black life in South Africa. Miners, clubgoers, workers, and market women populate his photographs, installations, and paper-based works. His art is marked by an exuberant energy and high color, haunted by images of dislocation and dispossession. But there is hope and perseverance, too. This potent mix of themes and methods is inspired by Hassan's childhood in the townships of Alexandra and Soweto. As a child, he witnessed the seemingly constant flight of black South Africans as apartheid policies forcibly took their land.
In early installations such as Flight 1 (1995), Hassan creates an environment evocative of forced migrations, with bundles of wrapped clothes, dangling cooking pots, and bicycles loaded down with water jugs and sleeping mats. This installation also includes what the artist calls a "construction"—a mural-size work made from ripped-up billboard posters—depicting towns-people on the run. He was inspired to adopt this collage technique of deconstructing and reconstructing ever-ubiquitous consumer advertisements when he lived in Paris and watched people tear posters off subway walls as souvenirs. He is interested in the wonder that viewers of his work feel once they realize they are not looking at a painting, but at a work made entirely of discarded paper. Their sense of surprise can pull them deeper into the work and into the worlds Hassan creates there.
Urban Cocktail (1997), from the Walker Art Center's collection, portrays the animated patrons of a township shebeen, an unlicensed gathering spot for music, dancing, socializing, and drinking bootleg beer. Hassan's mother ran such an establishment, so he is familiar with its community role: "It's very educational, the shebeen. It's eye-opening in that you listen to all kinds of conversations going on there—political conversations, day-to-day incidents, what's happening in town, problems with the white man. You even found stolen goods in the shebeens."1 The dynamic scene in Urban Cocktail, which is almost 8-by-33 feet wide, moves from tan and bright ochre to dense browns and blacks, perhaps suggesting a shift from interior to exterior or day to night. As in other Hassan works, many of the figures wear highly patterned garments—with bits of text and logos reminding us of their source material—reminiscent of traditional African fabrics. The subjects' fractured and jutting faces are intriguingly masklike, recalling the confluence of Cubist faceting and African art forms. Yet even such a specific scene still reads clearly across geographic and demographic lines. Hassan links our humanity to theirs, their joys and tribulations to ours. Common ground. Common cause. Common being.

The Place of God's Disfavor
from R.C. Sproul Apr 03, 2011 Category: R.C. SproulIn recent days, the evangelical church has been rocked by Rob Bell's open questioning of the doctrine of hell.

Sproul strongly affirms that hell is a biblical concept and a very real place.

Do Muslims and Christians worship the same God?
from R.C. Sproul Jr. Apr 03, 2011 Category: ArticlesNo. The god Muslims worship is, in reality, an idol. In terms of their own theology, however, he is a single person, transcendent. The God Christians worship, on the other hand, is the maker of heaven and earth. He is one being and transcendent, who exists in three persons, which are also immanent. Neither the one-ness nor the three-ness of God are tangential attributes. They are instead essential attributes; they define who He is. Move away from that definition and you move away from the true and living God. Keep Reading

In fact the PK/PKM design uses a fixed and as I recall so does the Suomi. Other systems like the MG42 use different locking mechanisms but essentially result in the same outcome - fire the round just as it locks up, no "slack" in the system to slow it down.
For a semi-only design, you have to convert it to a normal floating/spring-loaded firing pin or just build a brand-new firing pin from drill rod or a grade-8 bolt. Then you are free to make it into a conventional striker- or hammer-fired design.

James Flynn:
Why our IQ levels are higher than our grandparents'
It's called the "Flynn effect" — the fact that each generation scores higher on an IQ test than the generation before it. Are we actually getting smarter, or just thinking differently? In this fast-paced spin through the cognitive history of the 20th century, moral philosopher James Flynn suggests that changes in the way we think have had surprising (and not always positive) consequences.
