Dunkeld - The Hermitage, Perth & Kinross
Classification Easy walk
Distance 5 miles (8km)
Typical duration 3 hours
Height gain 195m
Starting point Car park near Inver (half mile off A822)
OS grid reference NO 014 418 (Explorer map 379)
Walk in a nutshell
Apart from the 80-metre ascent at the midpoint, this walk is quite flat and suitable for most walkers. From the car park near Inver, the walk follows a minor road and footpath to reach the banks of the Tay at the mouth of the River Braan. A flat and wide riverside path leading through mature woodland follows Scotland's longest river northwards for about 3km. On the way you pass Niel Gow's Oak, where the well-known local fiddle player composed many of his tunes. The path leaves the river and, after passing beneath the A9 and a railway line, climbs steeply for a short distance into Craigvinean Forest, a woodland of enormous Douglas firs. A fairly level track leads back along the hillside, passing a folly built at a viewpoint over the Tay Valley. The track descends to the Hermitage, an ornamental woodland garden dating from the 1750s, where you will find a Hermit's Cave and Ossian's Hall, providing a viewpoint over the Falls of Braan.
Why it's so special
Being sheltered by woodland most of the way, it is an ideal all-year route. You can be confident of enjoying a great day out no matter what the weather decides to do.
Keep your eyes peeled for
Towards the end of the walk you'll notice a plaque that marks Britain's tallest tree. The 64.6m Douglas fir was planted in the 1860s and is a joy to behold.
But bear in mind
Like any woodland walk, heavy rain equals heavy mud. Therefore sensible walking boots are recommended.
Impress your companions
Musical prodigy Niel Gow was arguably the most famous Scottish fiddler of the 18th century. Born in Inver, Perthshire, Gow was generally considered to be the best fiddle player in an area famed for its musicians. Of his eight children, Nathaniel is by far the best known, himself a composer of some 200 fine Scottish tunes.
Recovery afterwards
The Taybank, in Dunkeld, is a self-proclaimed musical meeting place. It used to be owned by acclaimed Scottish singer-songwriter Dougie MacLean and his wife and is still very much a hangout for local folk singers. The food and drink is top notch, there's a beer garden across the road and spontaneous music sessions are to be expected.
And if it's tipping down
The beauty of this walk is that the woodland provides natural shelter for most of the route. However, if things begin to get muddy, there's a lovely tea shop along the way with the necessary hot drinks and snacks for your second wind.
1-2. From car park half a mile off A822, leave by entrance road and walk downhill on minor road to junction in 400m. Turn right here, follow pavement for 500m. Look for blue signpost on left, indicating Birnam and Dunkeld via underpass.
3-5. At blue signpost turn left; follow narrow path towards River Braan. At bottom, do NOT go through underpass, but turn sharp left and cross wooden bridge over Braan. After bridge turn right, take path leading beneath A9. Follow for 200m until Braan reaches River Tay.
6-8. As path reaches banks of Tay turn left; follow wide path along riverbank. Dunkeld Cathedral is directly across river. After half a mile or so, reach grazing field on left. Look out for "Niel Gow's Oak" (he composed music here) and a carved wooden seat. In another 3/4 mile, pass ruins on left in very dark part of wood. Another 3/4 mile further on, riverside path turns left to reach gap in wire fence. Pass through, keep to right (ignore stile leading left). Path curves left below A9 bridge.
9-10. Enter narrow tunnel leading below railway line - follow path to edge of minor road. Cross road, follow Forestry Commission road into Craigvinean Forest. Just beyond car park, road curves to right - look for "brown man" waymarker on left of path.
11-13. At waymarker, follow narrow path climbing steeply into forest. As path flattens, it winds through trees to meet forest road. At junction with forest road, turn right and follow road as it rises for 100m. Follow main track's sharp curve to left (ignore path leading right).
Path levels off quickly and passes huge Douglas firs. More than a mile from bend, path rises slightly (small lay-by on left, mountain bike track on right). Just beyond, look carefully for very unclear, unmarked path leading up to a grassy mound on the left. NB This path is very easy to miss!
14. Follow path up mound to viewpoint; there is a surprising folly here with turrets and a stainless steel staircase. Ignore yellow marker-posts. Return to main forest track and continue along as it descends for 400m, to a junction with a wide forest road.
15-16. Go straight across junction, take footpath leading to right of large beech tree. In 150m you reach a Y-junction. Take right-hand path, follow it for 300m down towards River Braan. Nearing river you reach Hermit's Cave, go in and explore. Afterwards turn left at cave, take path that follows river downstream. In 400m you reach Ossian's Hall (circular).
17-20. Explore area, then cross stone bridge over river. Turn left along footpath; you soon reach plaque with information on Britain's tallest tree. Continue for 400m to junction with another path joining from left. Stay on main path to reach the car park in 200m.
How to get there
By car If driving north on A9 from Perth, continue 200m beyond turn-off to Dunkeld and turn west on to A822. Then immediately branch right, and follow minor road uphill for around ½ mile to well-made car park on right where walk begins.
By train Nearest station is Dunkeld and Birnam, only a mile east on same side of River Tay.

j'ai essayé et j'ai aimé. en quelques jours j'ai vu la différence et ce lip balm est vraiment efficace. il demeure longtemps et il vaut la peine d'être essaye
I have very dry lips, especially in the winter time. This is definitely one of my go to products I try to keep on me at all times. It's not greasy or foul smelling, quite pleasant and hydrating. Love this lip balm!
I bought this lip balm in the winter for my dry, chapped lips. They were terrible and this lip balm saved them by applying it at least once a day. Love this stuff!
the nivea soothing has no scent or color.it felt a little greasy for me when i applied it. the moisturizing effect didn't really last long. :-( i find nothing really special about this balm,i really prefer other lip balms. didn;t help much on already cracked lips. protects really good,if you apply it enough over the day,because like i said it didn't give me long enough the moisturizing effect i need. this balm is great for me in the summer, but useless for me in winter,when my lips really need the care. what i like is that it doesn't burn or sting on open,cracked lips, because my kids and i have the problem we can't apply every lipbalm out there, some burn like hell on cracked lips, not this one, it's really gentle.
"This special formula with natural ingredients bisabol and wheat germ oil help support the lips' natural moisturization process and protect them before they crack. NIVEA Soothing Care lip balm is a must-have in dry conditions.
Strengthens the resistance of your lips against external influences
Gives long lasting moisture
Provides extra care and protection
Dermatologist tested. No preservatives."

Chapter 5.5Mature
"I'm sure we'll meet them another time," she murmured, letting out an exhausted sigh. Sophie raised her eyebrows looking from Alivia to Morael.
"I'm Sophie," she said, unsure what was going on. Alivia blinked at her and realised how odd this looked.
"Right. Sophie meet Morael. Sophie's my best friend. Morael's … " An angel? Annoying?
"Foster brother," Morael put in, surprising Alivia. "They've put me in Muriel's care temporarily until they find somewhere more permanent," he shrugged. Alivia blinked at how casual he was acting. He's probably been alive long enough to know how to act human.
"Oh, Ali didn't say anything," Sophie said.
"It was a very fast thing," Alivia said. "We should get going. I'll talk to you tomorrow Soph," she said, standing up.
"Okay, see you," she replied, waving and looking at the text at last. Outside the air was warm and crisp, summer was fast approaching. When they'd walked off the high street full of shops and were approaching the house Alivia paused, turning to look at him.
"Foster brother?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Seemed the best way to handle the situation. Muriel's already handled the human side of things. This way I can keep a close eye on both you and Jordan," Morael explained.
"Oh god, please don't tell me you're going to school with us," Alivia murmured. Morael snorted.
"Trust me, I'm not happy about the idea either," he muttered. "But the demons only option now will be to find you through the school. And there are plenty demons who can shield their presence from me," he said.
"Comforting," Alivia stated. "So how do we figure out if someone's a demon?" she asked.
"There are basics. Silver, holy water, salt. A demon should react to all of these. But I wouldn't worry about your normal group of friends. It's people who are new to town that we need to worry about," Morael said. Alivia tried to think of anyone who's recently moved in.
"Denise only moved here a month ago. She was giving me hell from the first moment we met," she said.
"I can look into it," Morael said, frowning. "But if she was at the party, I didn't sense anything. I may not be able to do much," Morael murmured. Alivia sighed before remembering something.
"Actually, she left just before you turned up," she said. Remembering her leaving with Justin. At the time she just seemed desperate to be alone with Justin. But now Alivia wondered if it was something else chasing her out. She pushed away thoughts of angels and demons, deciding to enjoy the clear sky of stars.
"Have fun sharing a room with Jordan," she joked.
"I'm sure I'll survive," Morael muttered back dryly. Alivia blinked at him.
"Did you just make a joke?" she asked, feeling the faintest of smiles form on her lips. Morael raised an eyebrow at her.
"I'm an angel. Joking isn't in our repertoire," he said. But she could see a smile flick across his features for the barest of seconds. Maybe Morael isn't as bad as I thought. And maybe, just maybe, they'd somehow survive this. It was a hope she clutched onto like a desperate child.

The Edmonton-born tradition of laying poppies at fallen soldiers' headstones continues as part of the now national No Stone Left Alone Campaign.
At the kickoff Monday in Edmonton's Beechmount Cemetery, Brigadier General Simon Heatherington spoke to students who volunteered to lay the poppies.
"Thank you for what you're doing today, and I hope that you'll continue to keep faith with our fallen as you move forward in your lives. Pass on this remarkable tribute of placing a poppy on the headstone of the fallen to your own children when that time comes."
Edmonton MP Randy Boissonault told those gathered it's a simple act with an important message.
"Each of us can do our part to keep the peace today and every day. This is an impressive program demonstrating leadership, remembrance, and respect for Canada's veterans."
In 25 cities across Canada, 6800 junior high students will be laying nearly 45,000 poppies on military graves. (ms, kdr)

Returning Home (Part 3: Burning Town)Mature
After the hours had passed and the day became halfway over, Bain started moving up a familiar hill. Yes, this was Welcome Grove. Around him were trees that would bear apples in the seasons after winter had passed. That meant that over this hill, Garrison's March was lying in wait….
A red glow over the road brought a sense of dread to Bain. Surely it was just welcome fires? Horus could have told the people he was coming. They could have fended off the cultists, too. Or the cultists could have just came upon the road and started using it? Yes, that had to be it. Bain continued telling himself this even as he peaked Welcome Grove.
Garrison's March was on fire. No, it WAS fire. No matter where Bain looked, the buildings, the trees, the fences… they all were blazing with a brilliant flame. Not even the blacksmith shop was spared. How.. How could this be? Where were the knights Bain trained? Surely they could take down some measly cultists? In the distance, Bain saw the large castle he called home. Flames surrounded it, but…
They were not coming from it! There was hope, then!
Bain took off, heading for his castle. The streets of Garrison's March proved dangerous, with flame and debris covering the roads. Dalzig had a tough time getting through, but he somehow made it. Bless the horse. What would Bain do without it? Well, he certainly wouldn't be alive to see his wife once more. Dalzig jumped over a flame coved plank of wood, burning himself in the process. Had they not been in a hurry, Bain would have stopped the horse. Both rider and horse knew they must hurry, though.
Dalzig and Bain finally reached the gate to his castle. Thank God. Bain was unsure if he would make it with all the flames. No, he would have made it no matter what. With his resolve and his steed, he knew he could.
"I am Lord Bain Van Rose! Open these gates before the flames move closer!"
A sentry appeared above the gate, obviously verifying his identity. Bain wished the fool would hurry! He had no time to wait! He needed to check on his wife's condition and then assess his land. The gate opened slowly, almost slow enough to make Bain dismount and crawl under. A few men greeted him with cheers, but he ignored them.
"See to Dalzig and watch for another man, large and Germanic. He is an ally." Bain dismounted and moved past the men and into the confines of his Castle. The men, thankfully, went to work on Dalzig without questioning him. Good, he did not want to waste time.
"My lord, we must-"
Bain silenced his chancellor and kept walking. He had no time to deal with the man and no time to wonder where he had been hiding. Had he that time, it would be spent punishing the man. No, right now he had to focus on Elizabeth. She came first. She always came first. He knew it was selfish, but he cared not. She was his world.
Bain found his way up to where Elizabeth was isolated. Outside were Albert and Samuel, two of his most trusted knights. They seemed startled to see him. Then again, he was due back tomorrow. Bain walked towards the door they guarded, but found two spears stopping him. How dare they!? Bain grabbed one of the weapons and tried to rip it from its owner's hand. Never stop a man on a mission! They would not stop him from-
"My lord, please do not make us restrain you."
Bain realized he was surrounded. When had they..? Bain then realized what he had been doing. What a fool he was. These men were among his most trusted of knights. Albert, Samuel, Higgins, Gravile, George, and even Alfred. They were stopping him for a reason. What reason though?
"Is she..?"
Albert shook his head and smiled. "Do not worry, my lord, she still fights. Horus has instructed us to keep any out for now, however. I would have told you, but you seem to have taken me by surprise."
Bain smiled as best he could. She was alive. That was good news, at least. "My apologies. I have not been thinking straight."
The knights were taken back. What now? "Well," Higgins said from behind Bain, "I would think not with you of all people offering up apologies. How odd, my lord."
Bain cursed. Foolish knights. "Maybe I should make you run three times around the castle for your words, Higgins?"
The other knights laughed and Bain felt himself relaxing. "Not to ruin the mood, but Garrison's March is on fire, you know."
Bain nearly jumped at hearing the Chancellor's words. How had he forgotten! Such a fool he was. "Alright, we need to save as many of the people-"
"Already gathered, my lord," Samuel interrupted.
Bain nodded. "Good, now we need to work on putting out the flames in-"
"We can't, my lord."
Bain nearly cursed. "Samuel, the next time you cut me off, I will have you beaten!" The man seemed taken aback, but smiled anyway. Was he unaware of the situation? "Now, what do you mean you tried?"
Alfred took up the explanation. "No matter how much we tried, the flames simply will not go out."
Bain rubbed his head. "Alright, let's head to the East Wing watch tower. Along the way, you can fill me in on what in God's name happened here." Bain started walking, after giving Albert and Samuel orders to continue watching Elizabeth's room, not that they would have listened to any other orders anyway. Sometimes Bain doubted they were even his knights, since they were more loyal to Elizabeth.
"It all started just the night before, my lord," Gravile started, "Me and George here were scouting the surrounding lands when we came upon a camp of black-clad men." Cultists.
"Go on."
"Well, my lord," George said, moving his hands excessively as he spoke, "We started to move in with a dozen of the Garrison Knights, mainly to see their intentions and reason for being near the town. We would have left them alone, but they had armories."
Gravile nodded. "When we approached their camp, they attacked. Having so few of our own number, we fled to the South Woods. We thought we could fool them and use the forest to our advantage. Instead of following, they moved to the town, leaving a few of their number to keep us busy."
"Allow me to take it from there, my lord," Alfred said, not waiting for permission as usual, "The strange force started attacking the eastern part of the town first. Many lives were lost, but we managed to organize a defense and fight them off as the townsmen were pulled back into the castle."
Bain stopped walking. It made no sense. "Tell me, how is it our men were beaten when you organized a defense? We have superior fighting power than most feudal lord's personal armies and more practice as well." Bain's voice rose in anger. "How is it we lost, Alfred!?"
Alfred shrank back, making himself seem even smaller than he was. A hand touched Bain on his shoulder. "My lord," Higgins said, "I was there. Alfred and I did everything we could. For the most part, we were winning. They simply had an overwhelming number and a certain soldier who surpassed our abilities."
Bain cursed himself. He should have held his tongue. Those cultists…. Arkheem. There were likely others like that creature of a man. These men should be praised for saving any lives at all. "How many of the townsmen survived?"
Alfred smiled. "All but twenty eight."
Bain smiled. Out of nearly two hundred and fifty of his people, only twenty eight died? It was still a loss, but not nearly as bad as he feared when he first laid eyes on his burning home. "Well done, Garrison Knights. Now, let's go devise a plan for stopping this flame."

Clearwire accepts Sprint's offer, but still at low price
Sprint will pay $2.97 per share to gain full control of the 4G joint venture but many think the spectrum is being undersold
Clearwire has accepted a slightly upgraded offer for full control from Sprint, at $2.97 per share. Up from the original bid of $2.90, the new proposal values the transaction at $2.2bn and has been approved by Softbank of Japan, which is seeking approval for its own bid to buy 70% of Sprint for about $20bn.
The Japanese operator is said to have strongly favored the full takeover of the Clearwire joint venture, which has huge stocks of 2.5GHz spectrum, in which it runs WiMAX and is building out TD-LTE. Softbank is also deploying TD-LTE in Japan in the same band, and is part of a roaming and device initiative with Clearwire, China Mobile and others. Its influence, even before the deal with Sprint is finalized, is likely to have made the US cellco give greater priority to Clearwire within its complex 4G network and spectrum strategy.
Sprint currently owns 52% of Clearwire, though does not have majority voting rights, and has won over other major shareholders including Intel, BrightHouse and Comcast, which own 13% between them.
However, smaller investors may be less impressed. The deal has already provoked a challenge from one, Mount Kellett Capital Management, which owns 3.6% and last week said the initial $2.90-a-share offer "grossly" undervalued Clearwire's stocks of spare spectrum. Those frequencies could greatly increase Sprint's capacity for mobile broadband and for offload from its main LTE network. And Crest Financial, which owns about 3%, filed a lawsuit to block sale to Sprint and is now seeking to extend that to a class action.
Many analysts were surprised the price was not pushed up higher still, with some speculating it would have to top $5 to reflect the spectrum's value.
"Sprint's Network Vision architecture should allow for better strategic alignment and the full utilization and integration of Clearwire's complementary 2.5GHz spectrum assets, while achieving operational efficiencies and improved service for customers as the spectrum and network is migrated to LTE standards," said Sprint and Clearwire in a joint release. They said the merged firm will deploy TD-LTE in line with Clearwire's current plan while Sprint will continue with its own multiband FD-LTE plan. But Sprint is expected to decommission Clearwire's network over time, reported Reuters.
While the merger will help Samsung – the only vendor in common to both operators' LTE projects – consolidate its US position, it could put even more pressure on Huawei, which is a supplier to Clearwire but was excluded from Sprint's Network Vision program at the eleventh hour, because of pressure from government agencies citing security concerns.

By JONATHAN VERA
CARSON, Calif. – Kasey Keller announced at the beginning of the season he was going to retire at the end of the 2011 campaign, and as his farewell tour rolls on, the 41-year-old goalkeeper could not be more relaxed about his situation as he continues to play at a high level while experiencing new things.
Last week his famed hands became immortalized in plaster and are to be displayed in Seattle's new Pro Shop featuring Sounders and Seahawks memorabilia. This was a first for the keeper.
"It's cool," Keller said, laughing. "Seattle is crazy for the Sounders, and it's been a lot of fun coming home to something so cool."
His potential successor could enjoy a similar fate.
With Keller leaving at the end of the season, all eyes are currently fixed on U.S. national team goalkeeper Marcus Hahnemann after Red Bulls general manager Erik Soler bluntly stated the keeper was going to Seattle.
With Hahnemann, who grew up around Seattle and played for the Sounders' A-League franchise in the 1990s, being good friends with Keller, the current Seattle keeper was thrilled at the possibility of the move.
"Marcus is one of my very good friends," Keller said. "I'd love for Marcus to get the opportunity that I did, to be able to come home and finish your career at Seattle.
"But I stay out of that stuff. That's none of my business in what direction the team goes. I know there's a lot of hurdles, and it's not as easy as it sounds."
Keller is right. It's not as easy as it sounds because of the rules and regulations of Major League Soccer. Since Hahnemann is a returning national team player he has to go through allocation order.
Seattle currently sits seventh in the order, behind Chivas USA, Philadelphia, Houston, Toronto, Chicago and Sporting Kansas City, respectively.
"If you tell me all the other teams are going to pass, then I would say yeah, Marcus Hahnemann is coming to Seattle," Seattle coach Sigi Schmid said. "I don't think the other teams are going to pass."
A trade could always bring Hahnemann Seattle's way, and while Schmid would certainly welcome the 39-year-old keeper to CenturyLink Field, Seattle is not willing to do what D.C. United did in sending a sizable package to Philadelphia to trade up in the allocation order to get Troy Perkins prior to the 2010 season.
"For us, we would love to have Marcus," Schmid said. "We would love to have him play in his home town. I think he would love to play in his home town, but I think the rules right now don't allow it."
For the time being, Seattle still looks to Keller as its rock between the pipes, and he's been performing at an All-Star-caliber level in his final season as a player.
"At different times you're always thinking, when you're out of contract and that kind of stuff, 'What am I doing here? What am I going to do? What's next?'" Keller said. "Well now I know, and I can just relax and try to play as well as I possibly can.
"My goal the whole time is to get as many people saying by the end of the year, 'Are you sure you don't want to play one more year?'"
Dune king
I see you losers trying to bypass that loss to Sweden, US Soccer needs CHANGE!!
a piece about how dumb MLS rules are and how they deter US National Team players from returning to mls.. wow!
Shouldn't you be under a bridge somewhere, only appearing to demand funds for passage?
Congratulations to Keller–totally respect his decision to retire, but I could totally see him and BF going until they rolled 45, 46….. both have set the bar incredibly high for those NATS who follow and US Soccer is all the better for it. I wonder if coaching is in his future?
I could see Chivas and Chicago wanting MH, but Philly Houton and Toronto KC are in good shape keeper wise… so it is in fact very possible. Does MH have any say in where he winds up? if I had to chose between finishing my career at Chivas or retiring I might retire…
Seattle should wait another year for Hahneman and try and squeez one more out of Kasey…He still plays at high level and they could use the room for that much needed DP striker…
Nobody's being a loser, it's literally been 10 minutes since the game ended, hardly enough time for a write up.
…However. I agree. US soccer needs many changes from the ground up. Easier said than done.
I could see Keller coaching. I've always loved the guy.
couldnt MH just say he freaking hates Chivas and Chicago,and that every individual associated w/them from coaches to fans to even children of the fans and even the deaf-impaired supporter's groups associated with those teams are nothing but a bunch of low class thugs? Who'd take him then, but Sea?
That's what model professionals do… whine until they get what they want.
Deaf-impaired? So they can hear REALLY well?
ya he could or Chivas/Chicago/etc could take him and say they will not trade him for anything less than Freddy Montero, all the allocation $$ and Drew Cary's marching band.. then MH is stuck in limbo and is forced to sign somewhere else outside of MLS.
basically these mls rules give lazy teams like NE and Chivas value that they have not earned as well as the ability to rip off teams that USNT players actually want to play for..
As everyone else says whenever one of these stories come up – these MLS allocation rules are dumb. I understand the theory behind it, from letting the teams with the big pockets stocking up on players – but as things are right now we don't really see that. Most of the guys who do return to "home" generally seem to be guys who've had good careers in abroad and have earned plenty of money to not have compensation as a main factor.
This is semantics to an extent though because MLS will bend its rules or make a trade happen if Hahnemann insists on coming back to Seattle.
Chivas USA is cheap. Even if MH was a perfect match for my goats, CUSA would pass. We have no money.
That said, we have a good keeper in Dan Kennedy already.
Lots of teams have good keepers already, but MH is a world-class keeper. I'd snap him up.
I can't believe that people haven't learned by now that if a player wants to come back to a specific team then they find away to make it work.
It will be that MH hardly made any appearances for the national team so he doesn't really count.
He will end up in Seattle, not sure how but he will.
All of the teams in front of the Sounders in the allocation order have their keeper situations settled. Those that could use an upgrade probably wouldn't spend an allocation order pick for the marginal upgrade they'd get, and for only a year or two.
Seattle makes the most sense, no matter how you slice it.
World class might be a stretch. When I think world class, it's Cech, Casillas, Buffon, Reina, Akinfeev, Abbiati, Julio Cesar, Friedel, Schwarzer and Sutton.
MH is definitely a very good keeper, would be one of the top 3 in MLS immediately, but that doesnt make him world class…
The Allocation order has been gamed before by MLS (see Landon Donovan: LA Galaxy).
Now Marcus doesn't have the pull of LD, to be sure, but at the end of the day, the league likes to bring home USMNT players who want to come home. So it's quite likely they'll find a below-market trade that lets Seattle slide up in the order to pick their hometown player.
Idaho Brian
Is Keller getting DP money? If the Sounders are already used to paying DP funds for a keeper, then I suspect they could pay MH DP money and trump the allocation order, (if I remember that rule correctly). However, I'm not sure if at this stage in his career if MH could demand DP type wages, (I think he is a slight step down from Keller)…
Doesn't the allocation order go out the window if a team is willing to make the returning national team player a DP? With Seattle's deep pockets I don't think paying a little extra just to move to the front of the line is out of the question.
There is still the matter of whether they want to take the substantial cap hit that would come along with making MH a DP?
A wise man once
:O If Keller's hands are to be displayed in Seattle's Pro Shop, how will he play goalkeeping???
LOL, did you just sneak Sutton in there as a joke?
Keller isnt a DP
Fernandez and Montero are the 2 so they could use it on him, but I doubt they will
T Bone
Yes, what is the rush here? I don't get it
No love for Timmy Howard, Joe Hart or Hugo Lloris?
If marcus is coming to seattle he won't be as a DP.
Edwin in LA
Ummmm I'm pretty sure Dallas got Carlos Ruiz for the top allocation spot that went to LA so they could pick up Donovan, now Ruiz at the time being a 2 time MLS leading scorer, tied with Twellman I believe and a MLS Cup MVP as well as 2 year removed from a 2002 MVP season where Ruiz TORE MLS apart like pretty much NOBODY had done since maybe the inaugural season when guys like Hurtado, Lassiter, Dias-Arce had their way with the young defenses!
I hate how there's so much of this "The Galaxy gets all this treatment from MLS" even if it WAS true, hell is not like they've benefited from it?
They won in 2002 after going to 3 Finals 1 of which they were the best team all year, and another in which the smaller club AEG owned at the time beat them, with Donovan btw, even in 98 they got beaten by Chicago, that might of been the 1 year they might of had what it took to beat DC lol. The 2nd Cup came in a year when they had to struggle and upset for it, so I don't see why everyone still throw these rumors around?
Edwin in LA
I don't know WHY Schmid doesn't use David Estrada sometimes, especially when Seattle has had some injuries, you can't tell me Mike Seamon is a better option to have on the bench or Neagle?
That kid might of really screwed himself over by not coming out after his sensational rookie season at UCLA, but I have seen him do some great things in the little time he's had with Seattle, goal vs Celtic comes to mind, what a beauty!
Hey see if Chivas will take Estrada plus maybe a little money or a draft pick or who knows another player for the top allocation pick? Estrada might be inticing to the Goats, he's cheap in his salary!

I agree…the Galaxy hate gets a little old when they haven't won in so long.
Justin O
Teams ahead of Seattle in the allocation order might have their keeper situation set, but that shouldn't disuade them from taking Marcus, and then asking NYRB, "What will you give us for him?"

Washington, Nov 13(ANI): Former United States President George W. Bush is pleased that he is once again living a more normal-sized existence, a CBS News correspondent who interviewed him this week has said.
"He (Bush) met us in the foyer of his new home in Dallas, coffee mug in hand. While his wife got her final touch-ups with her hair and make-up, Bush seemed eager just to shoot the breeze, everything from the Texas Rangers' chances of holding on to pitcher Cliff Lee (questionable, in his opinion, if the Yankees decide they want him), to the state of his golf game," Jim Axelrod wrote in an article.
Axelrod reckons that after spending eight of the most stressful years in recent American history in the White House, Bush does look content with his low-key existence.
"It was a regular guy performance extraordinaire, though he wasn't putting on a thing. He seems to relish no longer getting his Presidential Daily Briefing each morning, hearing from his national security and intelligence teams what's on his plate that day," Axelrod wrote.
"He enjoys a chance to focus on fundraising for his museum, and where he and his wife might go to dinner that night," he added.
He also believes that Bush is likely to remain a divisive figure in the national conversation, but the former President is content to let history judge him.
"He has his regrets, the slow response to Hurrican Katrina among them, but is untroubled by many of the choices he made that were unpopular at the time, and remain so today with many Americans," Axelrod wrote.
Bush was the 43rd President of the United States, serving from 2001 to 2009. (ANI)

Becky Smith was beaten unconscious on May 9 near her home in Blackley, Manchester.
The attackers filmed the assault on a mobile video phone - a craze known as Happy Slapping.
A 16-year-old girl, from Blackley, was arrested today on suspicion of assault.
Becky was ambushed by a gang of teenagers at the junction of Fortrose Avenue and Sandyhill Road in Blackley at 7.15pm as she walked home from a friend's house.
She suffered serious head injuries and temporary paralysis and spent two days at North Manchester General Hospital before going home.
In that time, the video recording of the attack was circulated around her school, Plant Hill High in Blackley.
Her 13-year-old brother Craig was shown the film by a fellow pupil.

Mississippi State outfielder Brent Brownlee will be missing from the Bulldogs lineup tonight when they play Ole Miss, thanks to a game-ending gesture Sunday against Arkansas.
Brownlee gave the Razorbacks a single-digit salute, and no, he wasn't proclaiming Mississippi State No. 1. CollegeBaseballDaily.com has a photo of the act that got him suspended for a game.
Said MSU head baseball coach John Cohen: "No amount of verbal abuse or threats of physical violence from fans justifies Brent's actions. Brent is a model student-athlete and made a poor decision with a knee-jerk type of reaction. This type of action by our athletes is unacceptable and will not be tolerated."
But Brownlee's reaction to the heckling of visiting players at Arkansas does again bring the behavior of Razorback fans into question. Early this season, Delaware State's Troy Drummond was the subject of a barrage of racial slurs from fans seated in an area referred to as the Hog Pen, according to 5 News in Fayetteville.

May sway me to get a Solo instead of a Notch. The lack of second door and hybrid design kind of turn me off.Nov 29, 2013 at 1:55 pm #2049108
Do you feel you need a second door on a solo shelter?Nov 30, 2013 at 5:57 am #2049272
It would be handy and give me more site placement options.Nov 30, 2013 at 7:14 am #2049282
Love my Lightheart Solo with two doors. Extremely handy, especially when breaking down. If I were to buy one again, I'd get one with two doors again.Nov 30, 2013 at 8:33 am #2049302
Do you find you need eight guy lines to keep the fly pitched taught? Seems like a lot of pictures show that you need that many to get a good pitch.Nov 30, 2013 at 9:08 am #2049311
You can get by with 4 if there's no wind or rain and you just want the fly for privacy. That would be 2 on the ridgeline, which you have to stake out anyway, and 2 on the corners of the fly out from where the poles nest. These are the 4 that you want taut and will hold the fly's overall shape. But it definitely holds its shape better to stake out the other four guylines on the middle of each of the four flat panels. You don't want these pulled too tight, and they already have guylines attached with loops, so for me it adds only a few additional seconds to guy out these last 4.
You can't really see it, but in my avatar that's my LH Solo with only the 4 main corners guyed out. The fly panels might sag a little but that's all.
As for 2 doors, I understand the versatility, I've just found no issues with first figuring which side I want the door on and then setting it up that way. HYOH.Nov 30, 2013 at 9:52 am #2049323
Thanks JR, I appreciate your input. Seems like a great price for a good shelter.Nov 30, 2013 at 10:14 am #2049328
It is. I'm sure you've read the many positive comments from folks here and other sites.
It does not give you the versatility to mix-and-match components to leave some at home if not needed (such as tarp only, bug net only, etc). But if you're going to take all components most or all of the time anyway it's very convenient to have the fly stitched on yet still the ability to roll the fly up to sleep under the net only.
And I guess I do see the potential versatility of 2 doors. With only 1 door you can turn the shelter around so that the door is on the other side, but it also will have moved "front" to "back" as well. For example, if pitched aligned with the compass, you could have the single door either on the southeast panel or the northwest panel, but never on the SW or NE panels (without re-orienting the floor). With 2 doors you could set it up so the door you use could be on any of the 4 panels. But I haven't found site location to be limiting such that the 1 door is in a bad position.
I do know that LH will make the Solo with 2 doors, not sure if that would be on sale though.
Good luck.Nov 30, 2013 at 10:14 am #2049329

"Please make sure to let us know in the comments section what brand/make of trekking poles you will be using in the tent. We can work with all brands, but need to make a slight modification to the ridge pole for some brands."
That is on their front page. It is a slight drawback to know a shelter structure for one brand of hiking pole may not work so well if moving to another brand of hiking pole. Maybe they should explain fully.
It may relate to pole tip differences since their poles are handle down in the shelters. Wonder if trekking pole baskets cause a problem, snow baskets?Nov 30, 2013 at 10:35 am #2049335
John, your comments are valid, but not much of a concern. The ridge pole is a piece of lightweight hi-grade PVC pipe, crimped on each end at a precise angle to form the top and side angles for the entire structure. The pole tips fit in the ends of the PVC pipe. Any brand pole tip should fit in, particularly since the tip and housing tend to taper, so they will fit into the PVC up to the size that wedges squarely in the PVC hole.
The issue is if your poles are fixed or adjustable. The shelter is most taut, and strongest, when the poles are 130-135. If you have adjustable poles then no worries. But if you have fixed-length poles then there is some sort of adapter. I haven't seen it but I imagine it is some sort of extension pole for each side so that the shelter still is taut. If you change brand of trekking pole and need the adapters you could get them.
I set up my shelter leaving the mud baskets on. Haven't tried the snow baskets, I share your concern and probably would want to remove those before setting up the shelter.
Also, I've found flip-locks much easier than twist-locks for setting up the LH. You have to pull up hard on a pole section and then tighten it to get the walls really taut, that's a PITA with a twist-lock.Nov 30, 2013 at 10:38 am #2049338
"It may relate to pole tip differences since their poles are handle down in the shelters. Wonder if trekking pole baskets cause a problem, snow baskets?"
I've never had regular baskets pose a problem, but I'd think that snow baskets would definitely create a minor issue. Still, it's best used with no baskets on your poles IMO.Nov 30, 2013 at 10:40 am #2049339

+1. It's why I bought the CP3s to use instead of the LT4s.Nov 30, 2013 at 12:32 pm #2049369

John S.,
The issue causing us to ask which hiking pole you use is that a number of brands of poles have fatter tips than others. Our patented support system uses a piece of half inch PEX (cross- linked polyethylene) tubing rather than PVC. The narrower tips fit into the ends of our Ridge Pole snugly but for the fatter tipped hiking poles, we flare the ends of the Ridge Pole slightly to make it a more secure fit. You can use a flared Ridge Pole for a narrow tipped hiking pole, it just won't be a snug fit. But it is securely held in place as long as you extend the poles appropriately.

Waterfront Development Plan for Queens, NYC Revealed
The plan will transform the east bank of the East River. The first phase alone will add 900 new housing units.
"The first phase, to be completed by 2014, will also create five acres of new waterfront parkland, a new 1,100-seat intermediate and high school, new retail space and parking. Bloomberg said, 'At Hunter's Point South, not only will we build the largest new affordable housing complex in more than three decades, we'll do it on long-vacant waterfront property that has incredible views and sits adjacent to one of New York City's fastest growing neighborhoods.'"
