Roger Ebert, writer and film critic, has died. An unparalleled and conscientious figure in the field of film criticism, he's owed a debt of gratitude by all of us who believe that pop culture is at its best when it's critiqued and put in context with the society that produced it. He is survived by his wife Chaz Ebert.
Via Kat Chow, here's Ebert at Sundance 2002, addressing a fellow audience member (and fellow white man)'s complaint that director Justin Lin's Better Luck Tomorrow did an 'amoral' job of representing Asian Americans. "What I find very offensive and condescending about your statement is, nobody would say to a bunch of white filmmakers 'How could you do this to your people?'" yells Ebert. "This film has the right to be about these people, and Asian American characters have the right to be whoever the hell they want to be! They do not have to 'represent their people'!" (Longer transcript here.)
Ebert is also remembered fondly by Ava DuVernay, the first black woman to win Best Picture at Sundance. As she tweeted today:
Hurts. Thank you, Roger. For always being kind to me as a publicist. For championing me as a filmmaker. For teaching me how to love movies.
-- Ava DuVernay (@AVAETC) April 4, 2013

I blew my engine and I cannot find a rebuilt or new one anywhere. No i do not want a used one. If anyone knows where to get one it would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you
I blew my engine and I cannot find a rebuilt or new one anywhere. No i do not want a used one. If anyone knows where to get one it would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you
local junk yards, craigslist, ebay, vwvortex, audizine, passatworld here.
What kind of engine, is the car manual or auto?
Need Input.
what did you blow? t-belt broke? rod went thru the block? what engine
Not the engine, price, or answer you were looking for? Then provide a few more details.
It is a 1999 Passat 1.8t AEB Auto Transmission.
A rod snapped putting 3 holes in the block and breaking the oil pump.
Sorry for my lack of detail Im doing this at work. If I am missing anything else please inform me!
6 grand for a new AEB? lol jesus.
There is a guy on ebay that sells rebuilt motors, otherwise you won't really find people with fresh rebuilt motors laying around, its either used or new from the dealer or find a block and start building.
Thanks for the replies. I did see the one guy on ebay and I think I will most likely go with that. If you happen to find anything else that might interest me please PM me. Once again Thank you!
Go to a local machine shop and have them rebuilt it for you. This is not the cheapest option. Getting a used one is. But a new one will put you in the hole, a deep hole.
Mine blew and I replaced it with an Audi engine for $1200 and it only had 52k on it. Not sure of B5 engines.....AWM had one year where it was made for both Audi and VW....but here's the kicker.....LONG BLOCK NUMBERS WERE DIFFERENT.....SHORT BLOCK NUMBERS MATCHED. If you're going to look to see if you can swap in an engine, break the engine apart and look at short block and head numbers....don't look for matching long block numbers.

Have you ever purchased from PartSelect.com before?
Thank you for helping make our site better.
PartSelect Number PS11747823
This part turns the light on as the door opens.
This part works with the following brands: Whirlpool, Admiral, Estate, Inglis, KENMORE®, KitchenAid, Roper, Maytag, Crosley, Jenn-Air, Hardwick, Magic Chef, Amana, Caloric & Glenwood.
This part fixes the following symptoms:
An easy job for smaller hands. Removed the two bolts holding the light cover. Removed two electrical connections from the old switch by pinching the retaining clip,removed the switch, snapped in the new one and re-attached the connectors. Your online illustrations helped me to know that the plastic housing for the light switch would only swing down so far and was not intended to be removed. Saved me from breaking that plastic cover's tabs. This home repair saved me more than 5 times the cost of hiring a professional to do it. Very happy homeowner.
Help other customers find the most helpful instructions.
Were these instructions helpful?
I removed the switch assemble from the panel with a Swiss Army knife. Disconnected the two wires and reversed the process with the new switch. Not being all that handy, I assumed the job would be very involved, but was very pleased that it was nearly effortless. A less than 15 minute operation. Removing the right side panel of the lower drawer was a slightly more involved, requiring the removal of 3-4 screws and replacing the inner workings of the temperature adjustment workings on the new panel. But it proved pretty simple and only required about 20 minutes start to finish.
It was so easy!Thanks for the rush to my home on the part.I just unscrewed the plate that locks in the light switch (screwdriver) and unplugged the old faulty part and plugged in the new switch, screwed the cover back on and I was done!Easy!And I am not Mr. Fix-it!
I removed the broken door light switch by inserting the flat end of a butter knife along the right side of the old switch. This depressed the tab that holds the switch in place, and the switch popped out. I tranferred the two slip-in wire connectors from the old switch to the new one and pushed the new switch into place. It was quick and easy. If you examine the new switch, you will see how the squeeze-tab works and how you need to release its tension to remove it.The door bin just slipped into the holders from above.
Removed the 2 screws holding the light bulb shield, then the 4 uolding the metal panel. Unplugged the olw door switch and replaced. reassembled the pieces.
I removed the switch housing (4 screws), replacing the switch in the housing was a snap. It took 5 minutes, cost $8 and light works like new!Why didn't I order this part and do the repair earlier? Very simple.
inserted a knife between the switch and the plastic interior in order to pop the switch out. then took off the 2 wires on the old switch put them on the new switch and reinserted the switch into the plastic interior.
use kitchen knife to pry out. replaced switch assemble and pressed back into place. Could not have done this with out help from previous customers. Thanks
My owners manual said to unplug fridge from elec outlet, use a kitchen knife to gently pry off the switch plate(manual had a pictoral example), unclip the two wire, replace with on new switch and replace the switch. Closedoor and plug back in. Open door to check that the lite works. Walla! It did. Thanks! Sincerely, Ron Marshall, Billings, MT
Popped the old one out with a kitchen knife and popped the new one back in. It tool less than 15 seconds!!

derivative y=sin(e^(3x-x^2))? show how
1 Answer | Add Yours
You need to use chain rule to find derivative of function.
The chain rule tells that you need to differentiate with respect to x, from outside toward inside, such that:
`dy/dx = (sin(e^(3x-x^2)))'*(e^(3x-x^2))'*(3x-x^2)'`
`dy/dx = (cos(e^(3x-x^2)))*(e^(3x-x^2))*(3- 2x)`
Hence, the derivative of function is `dy/dx = (3- 2x)*(e^(3x-x^2))*(cos(e^(3x-x^2)))`

- - You're gonna have to splain to me.... (http://www.deerhuntersclub.com/forums/pro-sports/7410-youre-gonna-have-splain-me.html)
You're gonna have to splain to me....
So, here we are again. Players and owners cannot solve the 9 BILLION DOLLAR question as to what should we make now??? The owners?? Well they have to worry somewhat about fans showing up at the stadiums. The players??, well they simply are supposed to show up and play, collecting the $$$$$ they agreed to collect.
The Comissioner??, well he makes $10,000,000. a year. THAT'S TEN MILLION!!! So some of you might be able to turn that into a number you can relate to; that is over $192,000. a week. You all may laugh (no problem!), I've never made $192,000. in two years ever, combined!!
I happen to be a retired military pilot, who works in a 2nd career and also own 5 houses as investments. Nope, not even close to well off, but I figure I'll eat dinner every day next week and, even the thought of $192,000 earned in a year makes me salivate here & now!!
My meager thoughts on the subject? No one demanded the players sign their contracts and play in the NFL. Perhaps they have another, better skill that they could sell elsewhere?? Oh, maybe some did not choose to finish the education that someone was willing to give them in trade for their playing football??
Do the players, because of their high $$$$$$$$$$$$ believe they are more important as the coach or even the owner?? Well, when I was young, I recall players calling their coaches, Mr Lombardi or Mr Landry. But, again, remember I'm pretty old (not even near retirement age!!!!)
Yes, you have seen & read my contempt for the players here. They had options. They chose to put all their eggs in the NFL basket, and I, for ONE, don't see just how they are suffering.
sounds like you're right to me. the deal is its BIIIIIIIG money. not just the salaries but all of it from hotels to bars to the tv ads and the $$ that generates. the players think without them this would collapse and they should get a piece of it.
you got to remember they only have what 8 years to make their multi millions and retire all set.
prima donnas
The only way to get things under control is for the fans to take a year off and not show up. I think that would stir up the money tree a bit.
Were the idiots filling the stands and justifying the salaries and profits.This issue is ridiculous how to split 9billion but ive been a union man my whole life.I feel if the owners say their expenses have increased and profit margin is down then why wont they open their books for the union to see.Truth is they signed a bad deal and want out of it.I think this is going to be longer than people think.
I wish I made 6 figures in a year....maybe by the time i retire
as long as the fans are willing to pay to watch sports the pay will go up for owners and players and only the fans suffer. keep paying and paying until, joe the plumber can't afford to take his family to a game (now). I would cap salaries and then tap sports for some hefty tax money for schools, seems like there is a lot of it to be shared.
In the beginning unions were necessary to protect workers from being slaughtered by big companies. Now they have priced themselves out of what middleclass America is willing to put up with. I was in the OCAW for 22 years and supported the union as a Vice president. Now I'm on the other side of the table and see both sides. Somewhere in the middle has to be the answer getting there is the problem.
I agree HM the greed is astonishing on both sides of this one.It is a union thing its about negotiations.This b.s. assault on unions is a joke Ronn.What will make you private sector people happy sweatshops.You should be screaming at wall st,and the big corporations.Middle class state employees are not responsible for the demise of this country.You wouldnt of had that attitude if you grew up in buffalo.Your family would ve worked in bethlehem steel and they all wouldve been union.Thats not a fair statement to make and i take offense to it.

Hey rexxers.
So I've been working on converting my red sedan to look like the tangerine special edition just because I think it looks pretty damn sick. I get that some people aren't into the whole side trim stripes, but I'm coming as a previous mustang owner and just always have been attracted to them :-).
I haven't been able to find any pictures anywhere of red sedans with cosmetic edits, so heres my attempt to help out ^_^
smoked out the reverse and turn signals. Also plastidipped the rear chrome strip. I'll have to redo this, as my coating isnt as clean as it could be.
If you end up going with the side stripes, deffenitly consider blacking out the fender badge. With this being chrome it looks completely out of place.
So yeah. My goal is to convert any chrome to black, and add that SE stripe on the bottom. Still a work in progress :-)

In second quarter of the year 2012, Blackberry had maintained itself as the top smart phone of Indonesia, but it has a reason to be sad as Android has overtaken Blackberry OS as the most popular OS. Currently, Android has more than half of the market share in its pocket, which is true based on facts given by IDC.
According to statement given by Darwin Lie, who is a Market Analyst with IDC for the Client Devices Research branch, incoming bulk of Android phones in Indonesia are responsible for increase in its market share, apart from the reason that android phones are easy on budget.
Lie said that Android phones are cheap and have a whole lot of applications, and not to forget, Blackberry 10 has been delayed. All buyers, including those who are willing to wait for Blackberry 10, are shifting base to Android for the time being, which has further pushed sales of Android phones and shifted the OS base from Blackberry.
Market statistics say that mobile phone market in the country has increased by 10% in each quarter, which is a decent growth. It is to be noted that shipments of feature phones has increased gigantically since the second quarter in Indonesia. The growth was mainly accelerated by vendors who have stocked handsets for the festive season of Id-ul-Fitr. There has been an increase in customers who have been looking forward to get phones with touch-screen, which will further increase shipment of smart phones in Indonesia up to 7 million units, predicts IDC.
Here is quick take on the varied smart phone manufacturers with major share in Indonesia.
In the second quarter of 2012, Blackberry had maintained its share in the market with a marginal fall of 6% in comparison to the first quarter. In this period, Android OS gained its share over RIM's Blackberry OS. Currently, there are more than 10 popular vendors who are offering Android smart phones in the country.
The strong and persistent performance of the Asha and the X series has helped Nokia in maintaining its presence in the market. For the second quarter of the current year, Nokia witnessed decent profits with the launch of Lumia 610 and 900, with both of them getting successful reactions from all and for being dependable models.
Another player that maintained itself in the mobile phone market is Cross. It had great shipment volumes in the second quarter and has smart marketing activities happening in the country. The natives of the country still prefer Cross over others for varied reasons.
From the galaxy series to the basic feature phones, Samsung has restored to pure marketing techniques to maintain its share, and as for the launch of Galaxy S3, it ensured that the company remained in news and retained its share in the market. For now, Samsung seems to be in a comfortable position in Indonesia that cannot be harmed.

Boxing News
WBC title fight moved to Japan!
By Joe Koizumi
Very astoundingly, only three days before, the WBC flyweight title bout was moved from China to Japan. Defending champ Daisuke Naito (34-2-3, 22 KOs), Japan, was slated to defend his belt against WBC#10 Xiong Zhao Zhong (12-1, 8 KOs), China, in Shanghai on Tuesday. But Japan's Miyata Promotions finally realized that it would be impossible to have it as scheduled because of the local promoter's failure to properly reserve the arena. Since this event is already scheduled to air on Japanese TBS Television, Hiroyuki Miyata, Naito's manager/promoter, has urgently decided to move it to the Defi Ariake Arena, Tokyo, Japan, in order to keep the TV schedule. We have never heard such shameful confusion only prior to the schedule.

Despite Kashmir's unresolved conflict, Natacha Butler continues the tradition of summer retreat to a wooden houseboat.
Srinagar's Dal Lake is glassy-smooth as we glide along in a wooden fishing boat, past homes on stilts and islands of bullrushes. The call to prayer is carried on the breeze. The snow-capped Himalayas rise around us, their reflection ruffled in our wake. Kashmir's summer capital is working its charm.
Lassa is paddling. All weathered face and twinkling eyes, he has been showing visitors the lake since he was a teenager, 45 years ago. ''You know what they call Kashmir?'' he asks in pitch-perfect English gleaned from tourists over the years. ''They call it 'paradise on Earth'.''
For decades it has been a paradise lost. India and Pakistan have fought two wars over the Muslim-majority state. It has been divided between the two - as Jammu and Kashmir - since 1947, and both nations claim the territory in full.
Twenty years ago separatist militants in Indian Kashmir began an insurgency. India says more than 45,000 people have died; human rights groups say the figure could be much higher. In 1995, six Western tourists were abducted in Pahalgam, 100 kilometres east of Srinagar, by the Islamist group, Al Faran: one escaped, one was killed and the others are presumed dead. That virtually ended international tourism in the region.
Despite a sharp drop-off in violence, widely attributed to a faltering peace process started by India and Pakistan in 2004, most Western governments, including Australia, advise travellers to avoid Kashmir. There is still sporadic unrest - a general strike and undeclared curfew were reported in Srinagar's old town last week - but foreign travellers are trickling back. This is good news for a region where 60 per cent of people rely on the tourism industry.
I'm in Srinagar with a friend to escape the scorching heat of my adopted city of New Delhi and to stay in one of Dal Lake's famous wooden houseboats. There are more than 1000 houseboats on the lake but the ones operated by Butt's Clermont are the pick of the bunch. Moored far away from the others, the five houseboats have two or three double bedrooms, a living room and bathroom, with spectacular views across the lake to the mountains from every room.
''You can stay in a hotel anywhere in the world but a houseboat in Kashmir, well, that is truly unique,'' says the endearingly eccentric owner Ghulam Butt, who had earlier welcomed us with a flamboyant sprinkling of petals.
It's hard to disagree. Stepping on to one of the intricately carved wooden houseboats is like entering an Aladdin's cave crammed with traditional wooden furniture, Kashmiri rugs and embroidered curtains. I'm not sure if it's the high-altitude air, at 1730 metres, but what could normally smack of kitsch looks genuinely tasteful here.
Butt's father started the business in the 1950s after being given a houseboat by a British couple who left India after Partition. The fashion for building houseboats began in 1888, during British colonial times. Foreigners were barred from building on land in Kashmir, so many bypassed the law by building on water.
''My father befriended the couple in Calcutta,'' Butt says, referring to the city that was the seat of British rule on the subcontinent until 1911. ''After they left for England he decided to build more houseboats because so many visitors wanted to stay on the lake.''
In the 1960s and '70s tourists flocked to Kashmir, a firm fixture on the hippie trail, and Butt's houseboats became some of the hottest addresses in town. ''I remember when Mr George Harrison of the Beatles came to stay,'' Butt recalls wistfully. ''He was very famous back then. My father was still in charge at the time and when I came home one evening there was Mr George sitting on the lawn with Ravi Shankar playing sitar. Mr George was such a lovely man.''
The boat Harrison stayed in has since sunk but his memory is kept afloat in the reception, where Butt has covered the wall with photos of famous visitors, including Harrison, India's last viceroy, Lord Mountbatten, and the former Australian governor-general, Bill Hayden.
After the trip down memory lane and the morning boat ride on the lake, it's time for lunch. The houseboats are operated as full-board and the meals are generous and delicious. Meat-lovers can tuck into spicy Afghan chicken and Kashmiri mutton stew while vegetarians can sample exotic dishes such as fried lotus roots and spicy dhals. For the less adventurous, the cooks can whip up a variety of Western dishes.
The hearty food, hospitality and stunning views would make it easy to stay on the houseboat and wile away the hours in an armchair but there's much to see in and around Srinagar. A good starting point is a taxi to the old town, which is criss-crossed by canals, bridges and elegant shrines. Centuries-old brick and wood buildings - poorly maintained but beautiful nevertheless - line the town's narrow, winding streets.
Nasir Shah has been running tours in Kashmir for more than 30 years and will show travellers the sites for about $20 a day. Although foreign tourists are making a comeback, the town still feels alluringly off the beaten track and it's a great place to shop for local crafts such as wicker baskets, painted boxes and gorgeous scarves.
Our first stop is one of Kashmir's oldest shrines on the banks of the Jhelum River. The richly decorated shrine of Shah-e-Hamdan was built in 1395 by Kashmir's sultan to honour the Persian scholar Mir Sayyid Ali Hamadani, who is widely thought to have brought Islam to the region. Entry to the mosque is for Muslims only although non-Muslims are welcome to peer inside and admire the interior. Other mosques welcome non-Muslims, including the main Jamia Masjid and Hazratbal Shrine, considered Kashmir's holiest shrine as it contains a relic believed to be a hair of the Prophet Muhammad. Built in white marble in 1968 on the shore of Dal Lake, the shrine is a serene place, though it has also been mixed up in some of the worst violence of the past 20 years.
After wandering around the old town, we take a short drive around the lake to Srinagar's famous Mughal-era gardens. Along the road, Indian soldiers are on patrol, a stark reminder of Kashmir's unresolved conflict. Although India withdrew 30,000 troops last year there are still hundreds of thousands of Indian security personnel in the region, the majority in the volatile border areas. Re-enforcing the message, a sign outside one of the gardens reads ''No weapons allowed inside''.
After paying our 10 rupees (25¢) entry fee we enter Shalimar garden. Water flows through daisy-sprinkled meadows, and ancient pavilions are surrounded by ordered flowerbeds. Set high on a hillside is the dramatic Pari Mahal, a former Buddhist monastery with a lovely garden with panoramic view of Dal Lake.
Kashmiris love their gardens and on weekends they are often packed with picnicking families. With the mountain backdrop it's easy to see why Kashmir is sometimes described as the Switzerland of the East.
As the light starts to fade we wind back around the lake to our houseboat. Ramzan is busy preparing it for the evening. He has worked on Butt's boats for 40 years and looks after guests with a charming mix of efficiency and warmth.
''Ah, sir and madam will be hungry, maybe some snacks and Kashmiri tea before dinner?'' he asks, plumping cushions on the sofa and switching on the lights. Minutes later he reappears with a steaming pot of chai, some old-fashioned china cups and slices of sponge cake.
Once again the call to prayer echoes around Dal Lake. ''Dinner will be served soon,'' says Ramzan, returning to collect our cups. ''Tonight it's special. We grill lamb kebabs and paneer in tomato. It's a little spicy, we like it little spicy.''
Getting there
Thai Airways flies to Delhi for about $1360, to Bangkok (9hr) and Delhi (4.5hr). Fare is low-season return from Sydney and Melbourne, including tax. Air India, SpiceJet, Jet Airways and Kingfisher fly from Delhi to Srinagar (1hr 15min) from about $110 one way, including tax. Australians require a visa for a stay of up to six months.
The Australian Department of Foreign Affairs warns against travelling to Jammu and Kashmir. Though Kashmir is relatively peaceful at the moment, it remains a volatile area and conditions should be checked before travelling.
Staying there
Butt's Clermont Houseboats in Srinagar have full-board tariffs from 4800 rupees ($120) a night for two people. See www.buttsclermonthouseboat.com.
Touring there

"Coach Richt, Coach Searels, Coach Bobo, and Coach Ball came in for the visit and everything was nice," said the Tennessee tackle. "We talked about my back injury, other recruits they are going after, and we watched the Georgia-Tennessee basketball game on T.V. It was a good visit and we just hung out." Long's back injury is coming along well and the Georgia coaches are happy about that. He is headed back to the doctor on January 21 and he will start therapy after that. Long would fit right in with some of the current Bulldog OLs on campus right now. Because of those injured, it could allow an early enrollee a chance to start this spring.
"Coach Searels told me that Dallas Lee might be first team guard during spring practice because of all the injuries on the offensive line. The team had a meeting Saturday morning and Coach Searels said Dallas is really liking everything. I just want to get healthy and get down there. We have not really talked about my specific tackle position, but we have talked a little about how I will fit in when I get there. I can't wait."
The 6-foot-6, 270 pound four-star offensive tackle plans to be in Athens the first week of June. His health should be 100 percent and that is good news to Searels and the UGA coaching staff.
"He just wants me healthy when I get there," said Austin Long. "I am not going to rush anything or try to do something I am not supposed to because I want to be ready to go to work when I get down there."
While watching the Dawgs fall to the Vols on the hard-court, the quartet of UGA coaches sat with the Long family and talked about guys they would like to join Austin in this class. The list is not that long, but it is very talented.
"We talked about Marlon Brown (UGA visited after they left Long's house), Orson Charles, Bobby Massie, and guys like that. We talked about the guys Georgia really wants. I have been working on Marlon – I text him, stay in touch with him, and I have gotten to know him pretty well. I hope we get him. I think this class is great already, but I hope we add a few more guys to it."
Getting Brown would make Long and the staff at Georgia very happy, but Long is already about excited about the players coming in with him, the group that is already on campus, and the coaches he will be playing for. The Dawgs have become like a second family to Long and he could not feel better about his decision.
"I have talked to Coach Richt on the phone some, I know Coach Searels very well, and I just feel very comfortable around the coaches. My whole family is comfortable and we just can't wait for signing day to come. The Georgia coaches are excited about it and I am excited about it too. I feel very good about my decision and I can't wait to get down to Georgia."

Our customer reviews for Novotel Toronto Vaughan
Reviews collected from customers who booked on AccorHotels.com
Friendly staff at front desk and restaurant. Nice welcome drink(I had a cappuccino). Clean room and bathroom.Coffee maker and variety of coffee and tea selections.The breakfast had plenty of hot and cold dishes with superb quality.

Thank you for staying with us and for sharing your experience with everyone else. Looking forward to welcoming you back on your next visit to Vaughan. Sincerely Eugene Vinogradov
Stayed here due to the proximity to Vaughan Mills, the room was appealing, well appointed and the mattress was comfortable but its time to change the bed frames, they were horribly squeaky. The window heater seemed to be a tad inefficient, it cycled on and off a lot to hold 70F The lobby was very nice, but I don't stay in the lobby The breakfast was a bit pricey for a buffet, but I do like having a lounge and restaurant on site. The front desk staff seemed a bit stiff, except for Iain who processed my check out.
Dear shawnmF3277EB Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the Novotel Vaughan. I am sorry to hear that we did not meet your expectations; please allow me to express my sincerest apologies.

We appreciate you sharing the concerns, and it is our hope that you will give us the opportunity to better serve you next time. Sincerely Eugene Vinogradov
Great Location, clean and modern hotel, and great service, offered extra towels at check in, one comment there was an overpowering perfume smell in the foyer, anytime we were walking through this area -it smelled like Calvin Klein Eternity- can believe this has not been an issue - many public places are fragrance free..
Dear meribethv Thank you taking the time to share the comments on your stay at Novotel Vaughan. I am very happy to see that your overall stay was pleasant and you experienced a great service. We always welcome feedback, as it allows us to continuously improve the experience we create for our guests. Please note that the scent was exclusively crafted for the Novotel brand to create an inviting atmosphere for all our guests. I understand that some people might be more susceptible to the scent than others, so will I make sure to communicate your feedback. We look forward to see you again and hope that this inconvenience will not deter you from coming back. Sincerely Eugene Vinogradov
My husband and I wanted the "shop and stay" package since the whole point of our trip to Vaughan was to shop. I called the hotel directly to book the package and was told it had to be booked online. I followed the instructions that the person at the hotel had given me to book the package. When we arrived, we were told that we had not booked the package even though I had followed the specific directions from the hotel employee. Needless to say I was livid!! My husband and I do not have a lot of money and had saved for this trip for our tenth anniversary. There went our perks including the complimentary breakfast. We did not get any apologies but the employee at check in was very clear and loud about the fact that we booked the lowest of the low rooms. This was rather embarrassing as other guests at the main desk were clearly able to hear him. We accepted the loss and went on with our weekend. The restaurant was visible through the front window and was not busy. If I had to guess, I would say that the items in the hot buffet sat there all morning as there was not much turnover. Tim Hortons had a great breakfast! The bed was terrible. My back hurt so bad the second night that the floor was more comfortable than the bed. I don't know if we had a bad experience because we booked the lowest of the low rooms or if the entire hotel is that way. WARNING : if you don't have a lot of money and are looking for a package deal - be very cautious.
Dear kjstead Thank you for sharing your feedback and I apologize for the negative experience during your stay. Your feedback is very important to us. The Shop and Stay hotel package is available directly at the hotel as well as on our website along with other rate options and are subject to availability. I have shared your comments with the team and coached them to better handle this reservation package request and ensure a smoother and more pleasant reservation and hotel arrival experience for our guests. Should you be making another trip to Vaughan in the near or far future please contact me directly and I will personally handle your booking. We appreciate you sharing your concerns, and it is our hope that you will give us the opportunity to better serve you in the near future. Sincerely Eugene Vinogradov
Very Helpful Staff and pleasant accomodations. Plan to stay again during next trip. I would recommend this hotel for business or pleasure Plenty of restaurants nearby and convenient to highways. Restaurant in hotel is reasonable and good
Dear will741 Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at the hotel. I am glad to hear that your stay was pleasant and you found our location convenient. We look forward to welcome you back on your next trip to Vaughan. Sincerely Eugene Vinogradov
A great experience. Friendly staff. Clean upgraded rooms with lovely decor and fixtures. Delicious complimentary breakfast. Close to Vaughn mills and we had a lovely view from our room. Easy to access wifi. My only objection would be the a/c unit that had a slightly loud hum when running, made sleep a little difficult.
Dear davidm2016m Thank you for taking the time to review Novotel Vaughan. It is a pleasure to learn you have enjoyed your stay with us and we exceeded your expectations. Please accept my apologies for the A/C unit. My engineering team is constantly working on improving the hotel's condition and I really wish you told us about your problem before you checked out. At this point I can only hope you will come back to us for the same exceptional service and even better night sleep. Sincerely Eugene Vinogradov General Manager
Good typical Novotel set up with friendly staff ready to help. Located near a large shopping centre and with easy access. Good buffet breakfast although if you come towards the end you may not find your expected croissant.
I stayed in Novotel Toronto Vaughan Centre for business purpose. The location is good, in walking distance to Vaughan Mills Outlet Center and Legoland Discovery Center. The room was quite spacious and clean with a big shower. Breakfast was good with many options. Can suggest this hotel.
Dear bekiranac Thank you for taking the time to share your comments about your stay at Novotel Vaughan. I'm glad you enjoyed our rooms, breakfast and found our location convenient for your business purposes. We look forward to welcome you back in the future. Sincerely Eugene Vinogradov
Main thing I'm looking for is cleanliness and novotel was very clean, room was nice, view we got was of an office building but I didn't stay there for a view, loved the a/c unit in each room, very powerful, your own controls on wall, didn't like the shower in the bath, would have preferred a stand alone shower, pool was a little small for my hopes, but my youngest used it, it would be fine if there wasn't many using it, also its heated which would be fine if we weren't in a heat alert, didn't get breakfast with my reservation, was gonna cost 15 a person so we went to tims instead, never tried out the restaurant but it looked nice, would stay there again if I could get a room again for under 150
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your stay. I am pleased you have enjoyed your overall stay with us and we would love to have the opportunity to accommodate you again in the future. Please remember to request a room with a walk in shower since we have rooms with a tub or a large glass enclosed walk in shower with a rain shower head. Also please note for the future 2 kids under 16 years of age accompanied by a dinning adult for breakfast can enjoy the buffet free of charge. Sincerely Eugene Vinogradov

"Be optimistic about everything." – Michael Jordan
You cannot always control what happens to you in life, but what's important is how you handle it. Champions are not only champions when everything is going right, but when things don't go right they know how to turn their obstacles into opportunities - it all starts with a mindset.
It was June of 2013 and I was on the tail end f a great fight camp, two weeks away from the biggest fight of my MMA career to date. I was about to make my debut at World Series of Fighting. WSOF is the #3 MMA promotion in the world. Their fights broadcast live on NBC Sports across the country. Needless to say this was a big opportunity.
Less than two weeks out from the fight I started to feel some pain in my jaw. In about 24 hours the pain went from annoying to excruciating. I went to the dentist and he said my wisdom teeth were coming in (I should have gotten them pulled much earlier) and one of them was growing in on an angle. That tooth had gotten infected so bad that it looked like I had a golf ball in my cheek. It was painful!
The dentist said I needed to get four teeth pulled immediately. When I told him I had the biggest fight of my life in 10 days, he didn't have much sympathy (when you tell your doctor that you get punched in the face for a living, they don't usually like it). So I was 10 days out from the fight and the recovery time for the surgery was… 10 days.
Surgery was done – I had no choice. But I did have a choice on how I was going to view this problem. I could have said to myself, "I can't train for the last 10 days of my camp. How am I going to cut weight? I now am going into a fight with four holes in my jaw, what a disadvantage! This is a disaster. How can I win under these circumstances?"
Instead, I took a different approach. I said to myself, "This is an obstacle that I will overcome and how much cooler is this victory going to knowing the adversity I had to overcome to achieve it! After this win, I am going to have a good story to tell!"
That is exactly what happened. I won a hard fought battle and the adversity made the win just that much more special. Now I get to tell the story. Watch the fight video below…
We see champions react to obstacles this way all the time. One of my favorite fighters and favorite human beings is Tyron Woodley. T-Wood is one of the top welterweights in the UFC right now. Recently, he busted his leg and he is now in a cast. Don't think for a second that held him down. He is probably in the gym right now working the heavy bag on one leg.
The word coach derives from the the horse-drawn coaches that were developed in the town of Kocs during the fifteenth century. The vehicles were originally used to transport royalty, but in time they also carried valuables, mail, and common passengers (1).
"A 'coach' remains something, or someone who carries a valued person from where they are to where they want to be." - Kevin Hall
As coaches, our valuable cargo are our athletes. We care about their success and because of that we want to help them get there in the most efficient way possible while inspiring them to be the absolute best that they can be. The following are 5 principles that I believe are marks of an influential coach:
1. Positive Reinforcement
"The way to develop the best in a person is by appreciation and encouragement." - Charles Schwab
B.F. Skinner, a world famous psychologist, discovered that an animal rewarded for good behavior will learn much more rapidly and retain what it learn what it learn far more efficiently than an animal punished for bad behavior. While our athletes are not animals, I do believe this principle applies to people as well.
Praise is much more effective than criticism. An influential coach focuses on telling his athletes what the are doing RIGHT twice as much as on telling them what they are doing wrong. However, the praise must be real, not cheap praise or flattery.
It is also important to teach the athlete to practice positive reinforcement on themselves. One of my favorite books, and the book at really opened my eyes to the power of the mental game is With Winning in Mind by Olympic gold medal rifle shooter Lanny Bassham. In his book he defines the principle of reinforcement - the more we think about, talk about, write about something happening, we improve the probability of that thing happening (2).
2. Coaches the Individual
"If there is one secret to success, it lies in the ability to get other's point of view and see things from that person's angle as well as your own." - Henry Ford
In his book How to Win Friends and Influence People, Dale Carnegie says, "The only way on earth to influence other people is to talk about what they want and show them how to get it" (3). Every athlete is different and is motivated in a different way. For example, if you call someone out for being lazy in front of the whole team, one guy may crumble and take it poorly while another guy might get angry and motivated to prove you wrong.
It is very important for a coach to understand their athlete and how to get the best out of them. However, If an athlete does not have a desire to get better or just hates the sport he is doing, there is not much a coach can do to change that - they must truly want to be successful themselves.
3. Systems
"Systems permit ordinary people to achieve extraordinary results predictably. However, without a system, even extraordinary people find it difficult to predictably achieve even ordinary results." - Michael Gerber
As my brother Conor and I discuss what makes great college programs successful year after year, we have realized once common theme - each program has a proven and effective system that is repeated year after year.
I believe this is the key to success for any sports program. That is why you see college football coaches move from school to school and continue to have success. It is not as much about the players but more about the system in place that gets the most out of those players.
The system has to be simple, effective and repeatable. But most importantly, all participants must buy in to the system. An influential coach builds an effective system and get his athletes to buy in - thus creating positive, predictable, and repeatable results.
4. Always Learning
"All meaningful and lasting change starts first in your imagination and then works its way out." - Albert Einstein
I put this one after 'Systems' intentionally because a great coach should always be trying to learn and improve the system in place. Continually testing and measuring the results and improving the machine is key.
In his book, 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth, John Maxwell writes,"Anyone who knows all the answers is not asking the right questions" (4). Things are always evolving and changing. If we don't do the same we will be left in the dust.
Take the sport of wrestling for example; if you watch Dan Gable matches from when he was competing, most wrestlers today might get a good laugh out of it. The styles have changed so much. If Gable was still teaching only the techniques that made him successful, his program would be left in the dust.
A great coach should always be studying new techniques, learning from his athletes and other coaches. An ego will only limit your potential.
5. Proven Experience
"To know the road ahead, ask those coming back." - Chinese proverb
This one is kind of a given. If a coach doesn't have some sort of a track record of success then how can you expect future success? Granted, some people are better coaches than they were athletes but they must have experience going through the same grind that they expect from their athletes.
Our high school coach, Coach Bu, is a great example of this. Coach Bu will be the first to tell you that he wasn't the most accomplished wrestler in the sport but that wasn't for lack of effort. He just didn't have the coaching or technique that we were privileged to have. He definitely went through the trenches though.
Coach Bu was one of the most influential coaches not only in mine and my brothers' lives, but probably one of the most influential coached in the history of Illinois wrestling. He knew what it was like to run long miles in the Chicago winter though knee high snow, and cutting weight, and the agony of defeat. He knew all of the difficulties of the sport and the things he demanded of his athletes because he did it all himself. This experience helped him inspire and influence many athletes in wrestling and in football as he continues to do today.
In conclusion, I have been blessed to have many influential coaches like in my life. As a matter of fact, my coaches have been among the most influential people in my life, period. I think the same is true for most athletes. As coaches, we have a responsibility to get the most out of every athlete who entrusts us with their athletic career. So lets do that in the best way possible. Lets coach with a purpose!

Competition: Champion's Huddle #3
Update: We got 20 new 'Competitor's Bibles' in courtesy of FCA Wrestling National Director, NCAA Champion, and former U of I Head Coach, Carl Perry. These Bibles have great daily devotions in the back. They will help our coaches and athletes grow in and out of the huddle!
Jon Jones is the most competitive guy at I can think of. It seems the bigger the stage, the better he performs. That is a trait that I want to have and I think it is the mark of a great competitor.
So why does Jon Jones compete so well? I think a lot of it as to do with the fact that he loves to compete. He doesn't care much about the pre-fight hype. He doesn't seem nervous before he steps in the cage. It's more like he is excited and ready to have fun!
I think if we as competitors learn to enjoy competition more, rather than letting our nerves get the best of us, we will compete to our full potential, and maybe, beyond.
The Parable of Talents (Mark 25:15-30)
14 "For it is just like a man going on a journey. He called his servants and turned over his possessions to them. 15 To one he gave five talents;[a] to another, two; and to another, one—to each according to his own ability. Then he went on a journey. Immediately 16 the man who had received five talents went, put them to work, and earned five more. 17 In the same way the man with two earned two more. 18 But the man who had received one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master's money.
19 "After a long time the master of those servants came and settled accounts with them. 20 The man who had received five talents approached, presented five more talents, and said, 'Master, you gave me five talents. Look, I've earned five more talents.'
21 "His master said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You were faithful over a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Share your master's joy!'
22 "Then the man with two talents also approached. He said, 'Master, you gave me two talents. Look, I've earned two more talents.'
23 "His master said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You were faithful over a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Share your master's joy!'
24 "Then the man who had received one talent also approached and said, 'Master, I know you. You're a difficult man, reaping where you haven't sown and gathering where you haven't scattered seed. 25 So I was afraid and went off and hid your talent in the ground. Look, you have what is yours.'
26 "But his master replied to him, 'You evil, lazy servant! If you knew that I reap where I haven't sown and gather where I haven't scattered, 27 then you should have deposited my money with the bankers. And when I returned I would have received my money back with interest.
28 "'So take the talent from him and give it to the one who has 10 talents. 29 For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have more than enough. But from the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. 30 And throw this good-for-nothing servant into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'
29 "For to everyone who has, more shall be given, and he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have shall be taken away. 30 Throw out the worthless servant into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
It is important to pin point our God-given talents and make sure we are investing in them well. When I look at my own talents, I feel God has blessed me with athletic ability, intelligence, and leadership skills.
I need to make sure I am getting the most out of what God has given me athletically. That means I need to study the mental game and compete to my full potential. I can take notes from Jon Jones and learn to enjoy competition and remember to always have FUN!
I can use my mind at work. By being successful in business I can use my God given talents to generate contributions to Kingdom building causes. I can use my leadership skills at Beebe Trained to help lead these kids to become better athletes and better men!
1 Corinthians 9:24-27
24 Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. 25 Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. 26 Therefore I do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating the air. 27 No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.
-This passage refers to an early international competition much like the Olympics. What makes the Olympics so important?
-What do the athletes get for winning?
-The award that these athletes won was nothing more than a crown made from a tree branch! How long will that last? ( the why or pay value in goal setting).
3 P's of wrestling:
1. Preparation - studying the sport, the mental game.
2. Practice - developing the skills required to excel the sport and keeping them sharp. Technique, drilling, strength & conditioning.
3. Performance - the actual competition. The endurance to compete and win; putting your desire and practice into action.
3 P's of spiritual training
1. Preparation -the desire to know and follow Christ and read about Him in the Bible.
2. Practice - developing the skills by learning to grow as a Christian. Bible study, prayer, and fellowship are to be kept sharp continually.
3. Performance -running the race. Continuing to use your skills to develop endurance. Taking Christ with you at home, in the class room or on the mat.
-Describe mental preparations you make for wrestling. What thoughts help you get ready for a match? Do you ever visualize a match before you step out there?
-List one essential skill required in wrestling.
-List one essential skill required in your Christian life.
-How do you develop endurance for wrestling? How do you develop endurance for your christian life?
95% of winning is done by 5% of those who compete. One habit separates the 5% from the rest: goal setting. Most people don't set them. No surprise there. This is common knowledge.
However, every major corporation sets goals. Every government sets goals. Every builder who builds has a blue print. Every banker has a written contract on how the borrower is going to pay back each loan. But among individuals, only the super successful even bother to set personal goals and plan their work.
Are our goals just a pipe dream? Are our goals set too high to not high enough? There is a 10 step process you can use to set you goals just right:
1. Decide what you want.
State you goal in the present tense.
Ex. "I am a state Champion"
2. Decide when you want it.
Ex. "March 2014"
3. List the pay-value.
Why do you want the goal? This is the most important step. What is your PURPOSE? Is it sincere? Is it powerful enough to motivate you to reach beyond you potential?
Ex. "Through being successful in wrestling I will improve my character and become a better person. With a state championship under my belt I will be able wrestle in college, get an education, and become a productive member of society."
4. Determine the obstacles in your way.
What must you do to reach your goals? Habits, attitudes, etc.
Ex. I need to improve in the following areas: Strength/conditioning, technique, mental game.
5. What is your plan to reach your goal?
The biggest difference between a wish and a goal is that a goal has a written plan. What do you have to do to overcome the obstacles in your way?
Ex. Strength – I train at The Functional Athlete 2x a week to improve in this area.
Technique – I attend every Beebe Trained practice and clinic and learn every day.
Mental Game – I attend the Champions Huddle a Beebe Trained every Sunday and I study the mental game like it is my most important class.
6. Ask yourself: "Is the prize worth the pay?"
7. Schedule you plan.
Gather the necessary resources, schedule your workouts, etc.
8. Start now!
Don't delay. Put out high quality effort, consistently over time, and you can do anything.
9. Never reach a goal without fist setting another one.
To add to this one, I would say, don't be afraid to alter your goal if need be, as long as the purpose of achieving that goal stays the same. For example, if your goal was to be a state place winner and you go out and beat a state champ, maybe you need to adjust you goal.
10. Never, ever, ever, ever quit!!!!
Lastly, take all of these steps and put them together to develop a "Directive Affirmation."
Ex. March 2014. I am a State Champion. I attend all Beebe Trained practices and train strength and conditioning 2x a week. I study the mental game like it is my most important class and attend all Champion's Huddles. Through being successful in wrestling I will improve my character and become a better person. With a state championship under my belt I will be able wrestle in college, get an education, and become a productive member of society. I am a State Champion!
Write your Directive Affirmation on 3 note card and strategically place the card in 3 places that you know you will see them every day. When you see the card throughout the day, stop and read it to yourself. Only one of two things can happen; you will achieve your goal, or you will stop trying.
The above are excerpts from the book With Winning in Mind by Lanny Bassham – this book changed my life. It was introduced to me by a man that had a big impact on me. He is a warrior, a Marine, a Vietnam vet, and my mentor while I was at Purdue - Lou Famiano.

April Update
This past weekend, I had the opportunity to attend the Fellowship of Christian Athletes Wrestling Ministry's Champions Breakfast at the NCAA National tournament. This opportunity was provided by the very charitable and totally Christian company that I work for, The Cochlan Group, inc.
TCG sponsored the event and sent me down there to try to recruit some new guys to hire. Our criteria for application are; business degree, wrestler, and Christian. Needless to say, the FCAW Breakfast was the perfect place to find such candidates (if you think that you may fit this mold, or know someone that does, contact me).
This was an amazing experience for me. Not only did I get to hang out with some of the most inspirational wrestlers of our time, like Jordan Burrows and Anthony Robles, but also with high level Christian business men, whom I hope to imitate. I loved the opportunity to listen and chat with men who are older, wiser, and more experienced/accomplished than me. In the short time I was there, I learned a lot, and here are some of my notes:
Mark Mestemacher – FCAW board member, successful business man, and huge advocate/supporter of wrestling in Illinois – Mark reaffirmed my belief in the power of a wrestling based Christian ministry. To give you some background, Mark had invited me to an FCA Wrestling "24 Hour God Camp" a few months ago that had a huge impact on me
Mark said that the power is two-fold; 1) for the older wrestlers that are Christians, these camps gives them a platform to share their faith to younger guys that look up to them in an atmosphere that the feel comfortable- I couldn't agree with this more. There are not many places that I feel more comfortable than in a wrestling room with a bunch of wrestlers.
2) The young guys who may have never been exposed to the gospel feel comfortable talking about faith with peers and older wrestlers that they look up to. Wrestling is a very niche culture. Us wrestlers like to stick together because, let's be honest, it's hard for other people to understand why we do what we do (i.e. skip parties, run in plastic suits, spit in cups, etc).
Jordan Burroughss – Olympic Gold Medalist. Jordan was at the FCA "24 Hour God Camp" that I metioned. He was also a guest speaker at the breakfast this past weekend. What Jordan said was likely the coolest part of the weekend – as it turns out, Jordan gave his life to Christ at the "24 Hou God Camp"!!! I had no idea this happened, and I was there! If wrestling ministry has the power to impact an Olympic Gold Medalist, then just imagine the positive influence it can have with young wrestlers all across the country!!! (read the blog I wrote about the 24 our God Camp)
Hearing this inspired me so much to push forward with a Beebe Trained affiliated wrestling ministry. I am still not sure exactly what this will look like but I truly believe God has a big plan here (check out the BBT Ministry page here).
Anthony "Unstoppable" Robles- NCAA Champion (the guy with one leg from ASU). Anthony was another guest speaker at the event. He talked about God's calling for our lives. His mom always told him that God had called him to do something special with his life. Through all the obstacles that he had to overcome, she always told him that quitting was not an option. If God calls you to do something special with your life, to not do so would be disobedient.
One of the biggest things that stood out to me about Anthony was his outstanding character and humility. I can't help but think it was forged through all of the struggles he had to overcome throughout his life. This reminded me of one of my favorite verses:
(Romans 5: 3-4) Rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.
John McGovern – head coach at Dubuque University. John is a long-time family friend and a very wise man. Some things that he said in our conversation really stood out to me. As we were talking about MMA, I told John that my motivation for fighting is to use the MMA platform to try to inspire others for Christ. But, I have been struggling to do that in a tangible way. It's one thing to grab the mic after a fight and say, "All the glory to God," but I want to see people's lives changed!
John told me that there are different seasons of life. If God is calling you to be a competitor and you think that you should be on the pulpit preaching, then you are not pursuing you calling correctly and God will not be with you. He said that right now might be the time to fight and focus on competing so that later in life I can speak and contribute in a more tangible way.
John also said, "standing on the pulpit is a dangerous place, because one may start to think that the impact is coming from their own power and forget that it is really coming from God." I totally agreed with this and thought to myself that I really need to develop my maturity and humility before I think about speaking to others. I can see how pride can overcome someone in ministry and I need to be aware and make sure that doesn't happen to me.
Stay tuned for more developments and more blogs. Please comment on this blog and give me some feedback! Thanks for reading.
A Case for Wrestling
Recent news has come out that the IOC has voted to drop the oldest sport in the world from the Olympics. This is terrible news to anyone who loves or has been impacted by the sport of wrestling. While wrestling has not reached as large of an audience as many other sports, the impact has been much deeper for those individuals that it has reached.
One positive outcome of this whole "dropping wrestling form the Olympics" fiasco is the over whelming support that it has inspired from the wrestling community through media coverage, videos, interviews, and testimonials about how wrestling has impacted people's lives.
Wrestling is the greatest sport on earth and the recent coverage and support for the sport has given me substacial evidence on which to build my case.
From a child's perspective:
Wrestling is an equal opportunity sport, more so than any other sport. It doesn't discriminate against the small, the weak, or the slow (or, like I was as a kid, all of the above). Wrestling doesn't even discriminate against the poor or the underprivileged.
"It doesn't matter where you come from or what resources you have. If you are willing to work, you can be successful a wrestling. Wrestling has weight classes so the smallest guy can be successful, and the biggest guy can be successful. Anybody can be successful but it requires hard work." Cael Sanderson- Olympic Gold Medalist, 4x NCAA Champion
From a wrestler's perspective:
Wrestling is more than a sport, it's a lifestyle. And as such, it penetrates all aspects of your life. For many sports, after practice or a game, the sport is over. But with wrestling, the weight cutting, and overall discipline required, wrestling is on your mind 24/7.
"The discipline of wrestling carries over to all aspects of my life. It makes me a better husband, a better father, a better son, and a better friend." James Yonushonis- Olympic hopeful.
"Wrestling has taught me how to live my life; how to be tough, determined, good work ethic, all the things you need to be successful in life. It has taught me how to learn and how to teach. I owe everything to wrestling." Reece Humphrey NCAA Champion, Olympic hopeful.
"Gotta finish, never give up, push after you goals and walk away knowing that you did everything to pursue your goals." Michael Mitchell- Olympic hopeful.
"We aren't in it for the fame or the fortune, cuz there is none." JD Bergman
From a parent's perspective:
"I have kids and I don't care if they are champions, but they will wrestle. Wrestling will make up for all of the mistakes I make as a parent because it teaches humility, hard work, and it teaches everything that you need to be successful in this world." Cael Sanderson
Cael said it best. No additional input from me is needed on this one.
From an employer's perspective:
I personally can attest to this point because I was hired, less than a week after my last final exam, solely because I am a wrestler. My boss is an ex-wrestler and he understands the mentality wrestlers have and how that can transfer over into the work place. In fact my firm is looking to hire more, but prospects must be high level wrestlers.
"Current research indicates that individuals who have competed in elite level athletics, i.e., collegiate, international, or professional level competition possess higher levels of emotional intelligence than their non-athlete counterparts" Richard Mendelson, a human capital consultant/researcher.
"I specifically like to hire wrestlers that have experienced success in the sport because they are sharp, passionate, tenacious, disciplined and they have a huge desire to succeed." Steve J Cochlan, President/CEO of The Cochlan Group (my boss)
"Olympic champions display higher levels of specific attributes directly linked to success, in particular emotional intelligence, stress management, interpersonal skills, and self-regard." Forbes Magazine
"Wrestlers have a capacity to push themselves harder than most and display an unrivaled mental toughness" Forbes Magazine.
"Once you've wrestled, everything else in life is easy" Dan Gable.
From the perspective of human nature:
(Not sure if that makes sense ^ but keep reading and you will get my point)
Wrestling is as old as mankind. Kids are wrestling before they can walk. As far back as history goes, there has been wrestling. Wrestling penetrates all cultures and all generations. It is a battle of one man against another man. Who is the best? It doesn't get more basic than that.
"The beauty of wrestling is that it is the epitome of sport. It's a combination of strength, speed, flexibility, stamina, mental toughness; all those things that make sport. It's the base sport. When kids grow up they say, ok, who is the fastest? Who is the strongest? And who can win in a wrestling match?" Cael Sanderson
"I swear it upon Zeus an outstanding runner cannot be the equal of an average wrestler." Socrates
The moral of this story is to support wrestling and get involved. The first step is to come by Beebe Trained and sign your kid up for our wrestling program ;) On top of phenomenal wrestling training, your kids will learn all of the life lessons mentioned in this blog. Get in and get better… at life!!!
"College wrestling is way harder than MMA," said every college wrestler turned MMA fighter.
"Man, I wish I would have wrestled in college," said every MMA fighter that didn't wrestle.
As a young aspiring MMA fighter and a lifelong wrestler I was faced with a very difficult question: Should I wrestle in college and get and education, or pursue my dreams to be an MMA fighter? Answer: Why not both?
For the last few years that is exactly what I did. I wrestled for Lindenwood-Bellville University, while earning a degree in Business Administration, and while competing as a professional MMA fighter. When I was going to school at LUB, I earned a 3.5 GPA, won a national championship in wrestling, and I went 6-0 as a pro MMA fighter. I am not saying this to toot my own horn but rather to offer up an interesting opportunity for young aspiring MMA fighters: You can do it too!
*Note: There are only certain schools that will allow you to compete as a professional athlete while competing in a collegiate sport. For example, you cannot do this for any NCAA sanctioned schools. However, the NAIA and the NCWA will allow it. I wrestled in the NCWA.
I truly believe that I would not have been nearly as successful on the mat if I wasn't getting it done in the class room as well. I would not have been as successful in the cage if I wasn't getting it done on the mat.
Wrestling provided me with the most intense and well-structured fight camps that I could ever ask for. Wrestling also gave me an abundance of dedicated training partners coupled with phenomenal coaches. Training for wrestling is much harder than training for MMA. The constant grind with little to no time off includes; strength/conditioning workouts, hard/technical drilling, live sparring, and more.
After my wrestling workouts I would train MMA with current UFC contender Tyron Woodley (he has a gym near my school). I fought, on average, once every other month. By doing this I earned enough money to pay my rent and put food on the table (but not much more than that). It was also cool because all my teammates, classmates, and teachers were following my career and watching my fights. I would go over my fight contracts with my law professor and I developed a strategic MMA marketing plan as a class project. My professors were all very supportive. One day I was checking out a book and the school librarian asked me if I was excited to go to California and fight for Tachi Palace. I thought that was pretty cool since I had never even told him I was a fighter.
So, most days I was training 3 times a day. This system made for extremely hard and exhausting training. With that said, being an athlete is NOT a full time job. Any athlete, even the most intense ones, can only train so many hours in a day. The question is what do you do with the rest of your day? I suggest focus on something else other that training. Something that is still challenging but allows you to shift focus and keep you from getting burned out on training. That something, for me, was business.
I found that the better I did in the classroom, the better I did in competition. By succeeding in school I was able to compete with a lot less pressure on my shoulders. One of my favorite quotes is, "The probability of achieving your goal drastically improves when you let go of the need to have it." A full-time fighter NEEDS to win because fighting is all he has. When I stepped into the cage I knew, win or lose, I still had an education and other things going for me. This thought process allowed be to compete free of worry, which made me fight a lot better and win a lot more.
So, if you want to be an MMA fighter I strongly suggest you take the same route. Find a college with an NCWA or NAIA wrestling program. Then find an MMA gym nearby. Train hard at wrestling, train hard at MMA, and above all… get your education!!!
If you have any questions about this idea, or need some advice, feel free to contact me through our contact page or via Facebook. I will be glad to help!
The Beebe's
