Service beyond exceptional
Exceptional diamond expert searched extensively for an even more perfect diamond after what I thought a perfect one was selected. She made sure I was 100% confident with my purchase.
She loved the ring
Loved the diamond. I would recommend a slightly wider band/setting if the diamond size is going to be larger than 1 carat.
She was blown away by the ring appearance.
Fabulous ring combination. The quality is outstanding and the ring is simply beautiful.
Great product!
It was a great buying experience. Nice and easy and a great product as well. Very happy with my purchase.
The diamond looks very good and the shipment is very fast. I think my girlfriend will love it.
Beautiful ring!
My fiancee and I are thrilled with this ring, it is beautiful! She gave me very little direction about the style of ring she wanted, but once she saw it she said it's exactly what she wanted. Her friends and family love it too. One of her friends even asked where I purchased it so she can tell her boyfriend where to get the same one. The only issue is the ring is a little too big compared to the plastic ring sizer we used prior to the purchase, but that issue is minor given Blue Nile's complimentary resizing policy. Overall, we love the ring and glad we went with Blue Nile!
She can't stop looking at the ring.
It is the most beautiful piece of jewelry I have ever seen.
Took twice to get it right.
Beautiful ring. Unfortunately the diamond I ordered was not available for sale - discovered a few days later. The replacement diamond was smaller but just as nice.
Excellent ring! Great customer service! Delivered right on time. Etremely happy with the overall experience i had at Blue Nile.
She loved the ring!
Very nice band, a little skinny from what I originally had expected. Make sure you understand the bands width prior to purchasing to have a better understanding of what to expect, other then that it is beautiful.
The ring is beautiful It's the perfect size and the small diamonds on the sides are breathtaking. The diamond shines so beautifully.
She said YES!
She said YES! So 5 stars! Very beautiful ring, diamond is of exceptional clarity and color. Only complaint was the ring size is a bit big. I wish size increments were available in quarter sizes instead of only half sizes.
rall the ring is nice, but I was expecting the ring should be a little bigger, it's kind of tiny compare to the picture...
overall the ring is nice, but I was expecting the ring should be a little bigger, it's kind of tiny compare to the picture...
Very nice ring, and worth the money
The ring came out very nice. The sizing was a bit larger than was to be expected, but that turned out to be something she wanted. The whole engagement was a surprise, and she was happy with what i picked for her.
Very nice
Great looking ring. Very small band helps to draw focus to the center diamond. Very happy with this choice.
Perfect Match for the Solitaire
The ring and mount are beautiful. I was debating between this ring and one of the same style with more t.w. diamonds in the band...I chose this one because it was thinner and I wanted the diamonds and the band to be a small accent against the solitaire diamond I put on top. It seemed to me the thinner band would place more emphasis on the "rock". I think it does. Very happy with this choice. The diamonds in the band, although small, are excellent quality.
Complete elegance!
This ring is elegant and simple. The diamond accents on the band add a nice touch without making the ring too busy.
Great diamond and amazing price
I have to say I am very satisfied with the purchase and the ring comes very elegantly packaged as shown in the pictures. What can I say, she said yes! :). I did take it to a local jeweler who i was going to purchase a diamond and ring from and they told me that this was a amazing deal. I had them look at the diamond anyways, and did find that the diamond ring had polish/resin left over on the diamond itself and had to be cleaned. This is probably my only gripe since you'd expect it to be very clean since it is a newly bought engagement ring. The 30-day return policy is definitely something to consider and is of benefit to blue nile given you cannot see the diamond before hand and have to go on faith that it will be as good as described. All you can go by is the GIA record which is very tough for such a high cost online purchase so keep that in mind.
loved the ring
Ring arrived perfectly as expected and your customer service agents are exceptional as well. Thank you so much!...and she said yes! everyone comments on how beautiful the ring is...with blue nile's help, i did this all on my own, which she repeats is her favorite part of all this!
Loving the ring
Couldn't be happier with the ring. Looks great and was exactly as I expected!
So nice she thought it was a fake!!!
It was better than I thought. The quality is excellent. I couldn't be more happy with it.
The ring is stunning and my fiance loves it!
The ring is stunning and my fiance loves it (as do other admirers). For my fiance's tiny fingers, I think this petite cathedral pave ring is the only option. The size was also spot on.
My only complaint is that I had worked with both the customer service staff (who in turn worked with the jewelers) to add a slight alteration to the design. I was told this would be done (several times), but it came as the standard Petite Cathedral Pave design. To be honest, though, I'm not that upset because the standard design is beautiful. Just slightly annoyed that I spent time working with C.S. and didn't get exactly what I asked for.

In Radical State: How Jihad Is Winning Over Democracy in the West, author Abigail R. Esman argues that in large measure, it is actually jihad which has emerged victorious over democracy, not only because of the actions of Muslim terrorists, but because of our own response to extremist Islam in the West. With the best of intentions, Western (European) countries have permitted antidemocratic, ultraconservative Islamic beliefs and traditions to flourish in their societies as they've responded to the influx of Muslim immigrants to their shores, largely as a result of the guest-worker programs which began in the 1960s and 1970s across Europe. But this multicultural approach has only backfired, creating cultural wars in which even the most intolerant and undemocratic of belief systems and values have been permitted, as governments have turned a blind eye to such atrocities as honor killings, anti-Semitism, the spread of literature extolling violence, and calls for the destruction of the democratic state.
Esman focuses her narrative on the Netherlands, oft regarded as the most free, stable, and tolerant nation in the West, the paragon of democracy and tolerance. Using Holland as an example, she demonstrates the collapse of democratic values that has occurred in other Western countries—including America—as we struggle against radical Islam. In doing so, she shows how the Western response to the threat of radicalization has at times gone to dangerous extremes, counterbalancing the multiculturalists' indulgence of radical Islam with the creation of restrictive, nearly-totalitarian laws and measures that are as destructive and toxic to our future-to free thought, free speech, and equal rights. Radical State uniquely articulates the dissolution of democratic values that have resulted from the actions of both left- and right-wing approaches to the problem. More importantly, the book strives to resolve the critical question of "what went wrong"—because to set things right again requires understanding how it all broke apart—and we must set it right, or jihad's victory over democracy will be complete, and sooner than we may realize.

SYRACUSE -- The Syracuse Common Council has unanimously approved new laws for the Citizen Review Board.
The CRB acts as a watchdog over Syracuse Police, investigating citizen complaints against the department.
The new law puts forth a clear, chain of command for everyone involved with the CRB -- from board members, to the Common Council, to the Police Chief and Mayor.
The new laws also speed up the process of investigating complaints against the Syracuse Police Department.
The CRB now has 60 days to investigate and make a recommendation to the Police Chief. Before, there was not a time limit.
The new laws also establish a better working relationship between the CRB and Syracuse Police, each now required to notify the other of a complaint within one business day.
Once the Police Department finishes its internal investigation, it must turn over the investigation file, which includes the written report from the officer in question. That means if an officer in question does not want to cooperate with the CRB, the board will still have a statement from that officer to take into consideration when it makes a recommendation.
"The people are entitled to answers and if there's some way the Citizen's Review Board can weigh in on behalf of the citizens -- that's fine...I see no problem with it," said Syracuse Police Chief Frank Fowler
Critics say the CRB has been largely dysfunctional since its inception nearly two decades ago.
In February, the Mayor Stephanie Miner fired the administrator for not doing her job properly.
Since then, Councilor Pamela Hunter has lead an effort to revamp the CRB and make it viable.
"Our dirty laundry is already out there," she said. "So now we have an opportunity to tell the community this is what we are, this is what we're doing and this is how we want to work going forward."
Mayor Miner is expected to sign the legislation into law as soon as Friday.
She'll appoint her three board members in January.

Obviously, the style is so different that if properly placed it is a real draw. The only problem is that the cushion is very, very firm and not so attractive. Solution is to wrap cushion is another material or replace it with 2 large pillows. Both are nice.

Notebook: UF soccer plays unfamiliar foes
Published: Friday, September 6, 2013 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, September 6, 2013 at 12:08 a.m.
With a home-heavy schedule in 2013, Florida soccer coach Becky Burleigh opted to bring in some different non-conference competition. As a result, the 10th-ranked Gators (3-1) begin a series of three straight matches against first-time opponents when they square off against Oklahoma (2-2) tonight at 7 at Pressly Stadium.
Fellow Big 12 member Oklahoma State (3-0-1) comes calling Sunday at 1 p.m., and Minnesota of the Big Ten visits next Friday to cap off the three-game homestand.
"I think it's going to be fun," Burleigh said.
"We play a lot of the same teams all the time, so it's kind of nice this year to play a variety of teams. I think it just gives the fans more exposure to the different styles of soccer across the country in big-name conferences."
Admission is free to all regular-season matches, and the first 500 fans arriving tonight will receive complimentary UF water bottles.
The No. 8 Gators will get a stern test this weekend as they take on No. 1 Penn State and No. 2 Stanford at the Nike Big Four Classic in Austin, Texas.
UF (4-0) tuned up with a 3-0 win over Texas-San Antonio (2-3) in its road opener Thursday, winning by scores of 25-18, 25-17 and 25-20.
Florida plays Stanford (1-0) Saturday at 4 p.m. before battling Penn State (2-0) Sunday at 11 a.m. Host and No. 6 Texas (2-1) completes the four-team field.
"It's one thing to play well in the O'Connell Center in front of a home crowd, but it's another thing to go on the road, especially this early in the season when teams are still finding out about themselves," coach Mary Wise said. "The good news is we don't play Texas, but we are playing two of the top teams in the country."
Other sports notes
The UF women's golf team under second-year coach Emily Bastel opens its fall season at the Cougar Classic in Charleston, S.C.
Florida is the defending team champion and junior Camilla Hedberg is the defending medalist at the three-day, 54-hole event that starts Sunday.
Coach Tim Walton will hold tryouts for this year's UF softball team. Any interested full-time enrolled students are required to attend a meeting at Katie Seashole Pressly Stadium Monday at 5 p.m.

Okay, okay....it's a little late, but here's our Five Fun Things for August in Kelly's Kitchen! And all five are one topic....STAYCATIONS!!!
1. Not that the $700 AC repair bill has anything to do with it, but I'll be taking next week off and enjoy what's so close to home (and less expensive than airfare anywhere) right here in Tampa Bay. An afternoon on the water in downtown St Pete gives me the perfect excuse to visit my favorite place to chill - the award winning Paciugo Gelato and Café on Beach Drive. Unbelievably good and not a diet killer for that lovely small cup of heaven. You can mix your flavors or be a purist, but it's not to be missed.
2. A chance to clean out the pantry and cupboards and eliminate what I don't need, like artificial ingredients, preservatives and other such items. And a better chance to fill it with what I do need, like fresh spices, good pasta and more. And then make a trip to some of my favorite natural food stores like Nature's Food Patch and Jem's Natural Living for a little advice and shopping. I must admit to being very fond of the salad and entree bar in Nature's Food Patch. Quick, healthy and a much better choice for something fast.
3. As long as I'm cleaning out the old, we'll bring in the new courtesy of some fresh items from the local farmers markets. Where can you still find them open? Plenty of places! Saturday morning there's the Ybor City Market in Centennial Park at 9 am, the Williams Park Summer Market, Safety Harbor Summertime Market in John Wilson Park on the 18th and the Wiregrass Fresh Market in The Shops at Wiregrass in Wesley Chapel. And quick tip; bring along cooler and ice so you don't have to rush right home in case you feel like visiting more than one.
4. Find at least one or two new wonderful places to recommend that you stop at as well; it seems to just happen when you're least looking for them. That roadside barbeque joint with the smoker out front that just lures you in with that intoxicating aroma, the little Italian restaurant that makes you feel like family, or perhaps taking a friend to that one place I've always wanted to try...wherever that might be.
5. Bake my buns off! I know I can reinvent a few recipes so when people see me coming with the muffins, the cookies, the pound cakes and more, they don't immediately contact the diet police. Bottom line is I want to enjoy them too.
Wow. Staying around home sounds better now that I see it in writing. I'm always open to your suggestions for places to go and taste. Send them along at email@example.com. I'm really looking forward to hearing from you. Don't be afraid to send me on a day trip...I still think I can afford the gas....maybe....
Laughter is an instant vacation. ~Milton Berle

Andy, I believe there is an Amish farmer from Hillsboro, Adam Hershberger, associated with Fair Ridge/Ohio Brush Creek Cooperative whose brother Andy, who lives on the same roads, does a CSA. Contact info for Andy Hershberger is email@example.com . I know that as of March 8th he was actively looking for new CSA members, and he and his brother may be able to work out sending your CSA box along with Adam's goods coming to market.

I absolutely love this time of year and I love getting people gifts and in all honesty I could care less about receiving gifts but if for some reason I get any of these things I would be so happy! :)
Aren't these just the cutest! I love little knick-knacks that are unique and I think these would look lovely on a small side table or shelf.
I have been eyeing this item for a while now and it reminds me of the old rug beaters but since Mr. Inspired loves fishing and I love antiques, it fits us perfectly. I would hang it sideways by itself or leaning against the wall on a shelf.
Antique furniture - Especially this beautiful blue cabinet!
I love these vintage style signage display frames!

Once upon a time, people built machines in the hopes they would last forever. Cars built in the 50's are made of solid cast iron and titanium and, to this day, if you drive one off a cliff, it will somehow achieve a speed above terminal velocity as it falls. And, when it hits ground, it will be perfectly fine. Everyone in it will be liquefied, but the car will be fine.
These days, technology is made from bird's nests and mouse farts and sometimes when you buy a new phone it will have evaporated before you even get home. So too with computers.
My benevolent masters at Break Media were kind enough to provide me with a computer on which to do my work as the linotype machine I had been using previously had poor internet connectivity. Unfortunately, this brave little toaster of a computer can only handle so many 25 galleries and hilarious lists about the World of Warcraft. Something had to give and, like a movie starring Helen Hunt, it was going to be pretty shitty.
So how does one know it's time to get a new laptop? There are telltale signs. Let's check out the timeline to see where things all went wrong.
Yep, you can see where things went shady. I can only assume it was the Chatroulette weiners that infected my machine and infested it with, you know, toxic weiner stuff. As I write this there is an ice back on my thigh and groin, one to protect me from burns and the other to preserve precious crotch stability. No caps have been locked in some time and those mouse buttons are very hard to navigate around. So bid the official Holy Taco laptop farewell, it has to be traded in for a less crotch-destroying model. But it has given us so much, hasn't it? it has. Farewell, old friend. May flights of mouse farts wing you to your rest.

Ask Ping!
Friday, January 25, 2013 | 9:05 AMPing,
What are your thoughts on the L&Mc team folding up shop three races into this season? For that matter, JDR/KTM and Jeff Ward Racing? Teams are disappearing fast!
Roger B
Roger,We knew about this before the season started so it shouldn't be a complete shock. Some people want to blast Larry Brooks for this since he has been involved with several teams that have gone under. I don't know enough about the specifics to blame anybody but I have a point of view on race teams. I basically put teams into one of two categories: There are teams run by companies who are promoting a product and teams run by those who aren't. Teams that have longevity are those who use the team as a marketing tool to help promote and sell their products. Teams like Factory Connection/Honda, Pro Circuit/Kawasaki and TLD/Honda have products they are selling. They can move marketing budgets around and make the bottom line right by doing so. The money they are spending is justified as promotion.
Teams like Jeff Ward Racing, JDR/KTM and L&Mc Racing don't have a product to sell to consumers. They are run by an enthusiast who wants to run a race team and be involved in the sport and they rely completely on outside sponsorship dollars for funding. While that is commendable it can end badly if the team loses money year after year. Very few wealthy people will continue to lose money over and over. I hope all the riders, mechanics and crew from these teams find good homes. There are some talented people who will be out of work and we can only hope they land somewhere.
You've made a few funnies on Twitter about James Stewart's knee but I wonder if he will really ride the whole season out with a torn ACL? You think he can? Man, it sucks seeing him ride around at 80% out there.
Dear LT,First of all, the jokes I made were before he came out and said he tore his ACL. Injuries like that aren't funny and I was just having some fun with the fact that he wouldn't tell the media what was going on. I've blown some knees out and all I can tell you is that I couldn't ride without them. There are some guys who rode their whole careers without that ligament but every time I stuck my leg out in a turn it felt like I was holding up a folding lawn chair with a bad locking mechanism. I learned the best thing I could do was get it fixed right away before it shifted around and damaged the meniscus even more. Even if James can deal with the pain and discomfort of having an unstable joint I doubt he'll be content to ride around in eighth place all year. I don't see him going all the way to Vegas like this. The sad part is that if he waits a few more weeks and then gets it fixed he will be out for the summer too. Maybe we'll get another season of Bubba's World?
Dear Mr. Pingree,
After watching Anaheim 2 and reading up on Kevin Windham's retirement, it seemed like a common theme centered not only upon deciding when it is appropriate to hang up the boots, but also what future awaits a post-race career. Talk ranged from his involvement with Planet Fitness to even possibly joining in with television race commentary.
And then it hit me. Isn't it true that we fans love him not only for his riding but also his personality? Friendly, honest, approachable.
Enter Kevin Windham's People Skills School for the Professional Racer. Not only would the fans benefit as we would have more likable racers and better interviews, but the riders would benefit in the long term as well. Boring Villopoto interview? Boom! Interesting interview. Brilliant, huh?
Dear Alex,While we will certainly miss Kevin on the track I don't think there is going to be a problem for him to find work within this industry. He has built friendships in this sport by being genuine, honest and friendly with everyone in the paddock. He's the same way with the fans, for that matter. I think the bigger question, and one that will be more difficult to answer is…what does he want to do? Once he figures that out he'll be just fine. Kevin Windham's People Skills School for Dirt Bikers? Sound good to me.

Good answers David.
As predicted by me on 12/24/12 and now by Ping....Bubba will not finish. Im not a Bubba hater but the glory days are gone for him. Wish he would be like KW or RC and just do his best with no excuses even if its not first. Suzuki put all their factory eggs in one bad basket.
It's Bush's fault teams are folding. Obama is still tring to fix it.
Yes, that's the nastiest whip. Ever.
J.S. Is the only rider that can make the most money and do the least work for it year after year ...He is going to play this for as long as He can... Then he will pull out to get it fixed and skip outdoors...... Hes got it all planed out ... This is nothing new, he does this every year.... Hes got the "System " all figured out....... what a waste.
haha yeah its bush' s fault thats it. that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. obama is killing this country single handedly. ping hit the cause and effect right on the head
Since Ping is tough on bad grammar in the questions, I can't help it ....
"He has been built friendships ......"
my mom warned me if i married a hooker that, sure, i'd be happy for a while but then things would go badly.. and now Kevin Windham retires
my mom is always right
Funniest quote from Ping "I've blown some knees out". haaaaa
I should have pointed out that I was being sarcastic with the Bush comment.
Said it before, and I'll say it again.....SX has turned MX into a circus act, and circus acts dont last!!! Before we know it, we'll have 8-10 riders putting on a "Monster Truck" style show... And I'm not trying to take anything from the riders, they are a great talent. I just think a lot of money and time is being wasted on SX....Lets go outdoors where motocross belongs!!!
If Feld does not start revenue sharing, Super Cross will be the next WWF. When that happens, the winners will be chosen, and the best/fastest bikes will go the the riders they want to win. Teams need to be reimbursed for showing up, and making it to the main event. The same thing needs to happen for Outdoors! These business models are only good for the promoters, not the teams, or the racers.
Actually It IS bush's fualt our economy is screwed as he clearly bankrupted us on a war we shouldn't have been in over black gold. Obama may be making decisions that you dont agree with but do you think anyone else would be able to do any better? The answer is No.... but to most of the right wingers on this site the answer is yes because repubs can do no wrong... which is sad.
The last GOOD president we had was ousted over afterhour activities with his chubby intern..... anyone remember the 90's? Good times.... No one was broke and everyone had a job. However, If Obama was WHITE (yea I said it.. bite me!) and a republican no one would say a word no matter what decision he makes.
Go ahead and flame me... It will just prove your one of the many mindless sheep.
Chuck H. From Oklahoma..... Yea.. the RED state.
Yes Clinton was a good leader. But stop blaming Bush and letting our current President off of the hook. He is all about takers and could care less about those who bust their ass (or makers).
January 3rd, 2007 was the day the Democrats took over the Senate and the Congress:
At the time:
The DOW Jones closed at 12,621.77
The GDP for the previous quarter was 3.5%
The Unemployment rate was 4.6%
George Bush's Economic policies SET A RECORD of 52 STRAIGHT MONTHS of JOB CREATION!
Remember the day...
January 3rd, 2007 was the day that Barney Frank took over the House Financial Services Committee and Chris Dodd took over the Senate Banking Committee.
The economic meltdown that happened 15 months later was in what part of the economy?
THANK YOU DEMOCRATS for taking us from 13,000 DOW, 3.5 GDP and 4.6% Unemployment... to this CRISIS by (among MANY other things) dumping 5-6 TRILLION Dollars of toxic loans on the economy from YOUR Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ! (BTW: Bush asked Congress 17 TIMES to stop Fannie & Freddie - starting in 2001 because it was Financially risky for the US economy):
And who took the THIRD highest pay-off from Fannie Mae AND Freddie Mac????
And who fought against reform of Fannie and Freddie???
The HYPOCRITE in Chief Obama
Thank you those who voted again for him. Enjoy your f'd up healthcare and handouts!
@maniacsXtrem - well said!
@Laker23 - funny that you blame Democrats for the Economic meltdown. Biased much? Narrow minded people are whats killing this country. And of course some bad policies (handouts) that have been around for a long time, which neither president will ever get rid of. Have a nice day
@Endo45: I'm confused by why people like you are always dissing Stewie for making excuses. I can't remember a time James Stewart had made an excuse for his lack of performance. If having a torn ACL is an "excuse", perhaps you've been fortunate enough to have never had one. But I doubt you have missed the comments by other pros (Ping included in this article) about how difficult it is to ride with one. Was it an "excuse" when both Villopoto & Reed ended their seasons with torn ACL's last year?
And as far as political comments are concerned, perhaps you guys are confused and somehow got on the wrong website. Nobody, and I'm pretty sure that means NOBODY wants to hear your political rants (either right or left wing) on this site.
Clinton a good president lol! It was his policies and lack of action that led to 911 attacks. Just like a lefty, never look at the big picture.
Blame the Democrats anf the Republicans still have control of the House?? What an idiot.. Everyone knows the economy hit the toilet under Bush and continued to spiral for 2 years after.. Anyone who knows how the economy works knows it takes time for change.. Bush had a huge advantage because of how great the economy was when Clinton left, it took Bush 8 years to really destroy it by cutting taxes on Billionaires and entering two wars and putting them on a credit card.. Spend like crazy and have no income to cover expenses.. That is what started the mess..And Republicans still obstruct and block everything Obama wants to do to try and improve.. EXAMPLE. In August the Republicans voted down the "Jobs for Veterans Act" to help retrain vets returning from Iraq and Afghanastan.. Republicans voted it down,, one Congressman was overheard saying "We cant let this happen under Obamas watch" In other words not letting him get some credit before the election, "obstructionist" putting politics ahead of our vets... And secondly, the ACT was written by 4 Republicans, and those 4 even voted against it, so Obama wouldnt get credit for it before the election.. That is what we have been dealing with, politics instead of them trying to improve our Nation..
Bruce Bartlett--Reagans senior economic advisor said himself the current Repub. Party is out of touch, and is "Hiding in a Fox News cocoon" that was Reagon senior economic advisor s words,, if anyone is a true conservative he is, he even said the Republican Party of today is borderline crazy.. That should tell some people something if he says this.. He writes for the American Conservative, you can read the column online on a page called "Reason and Politics" if anyone of you Right wing die-hards wish too.. I vote for the candidate, not the party myself.. And the Republican Party hasnt had much in the form of quality candidates lately.. Heck Romney couldnt even win his home state, that should speak volumns..
@please dont hate--Really?????? You blame Clinton for 9-11??? hahahahahahaha!!! Thats a good one, he ordered attacks on Al-Qaidia bases and was assailed by the Repubs. claiming "wag the dog" trying to get people off his affair with Monica..So he stopped.. He warned Bush a dozen times about Osama Bin Laden during the Presidential change of power, and every time Bush just kept asking what he had on Saddam Hussain, its the only thing Bush had in his mind, a reason to attack Saddam... weapons of mass destruction remember.... Bush was warned several times about Bin Laden--he ignored the warnings and concentrated on Saddam..And invaded Iraq later on for NOTHING...
If you want to blame the economy on Bush's war in Iraq, what about Obama's war in Afghanistan?
@ManiacsXtreme--You are right... If Obama was white and a Republican, the guys on here blaming him wouldnt be saying nothing...
WTF Ping didn't even mention politics in any of his answers this week. Go to cnn.com and shout in the wind over there.
Obamas war in Afghanastan?? REALLY???? Its Obamas war?? They attacked the USA and harbored the ones who orchestrated the 9-11 attacks, and Bush went to war with them, and now its Obamas war in Afghanastan?? What rock did you crawl out from under adamact1 ???
Well put Laker23! So sick of all the bleeding heart liberals. Obozo is the worst president in history! His socialistic, redistribution-of-wealth ideologies are ruining this country. It's not the government's job to legislate morality. @Maniac...stop with the race card already.....it's such an old, lethargic way to argue. Let's just take a look at the last four years:
1) Solyndra
2) Benghazi
3) High gas prices
4) High unemployment
5) Border control problems
6) Sued the state of Arizona
7) Fast and Furious
8) Massive debt=16.5 Trillion
9) Massive deficit=spending 1.5 trillion $ a year.
10) 49 Million on food stamps
11) Uncle Joe Biden=biggest douchebag moron of the century
12) Libya
13) Syria
Need I go on? Oblamer is the worst president in history!
Actually, for you politically challenged...it was Bill Clintons policies that created the mortgage collapse that ultimately created the economy.
@misoheye - agreed - I'm with you, man! (I was thinking the same thing but would have taken 3 paragraphs to nicely state the same thing you did). This is like trying to put Speed TV on and you only can pick up CNN and Fox News!
@Coley1x...I agree. I just don't care for Supercross all that much. For me, the best thing about is that it fills in the void when there are no outdoor nationals going on. And the live tv coverage is awesome, except for all the stupid Progressive Insurance commercials. But that's what a DVR is for. I still say the perfect sponsor for the Supercross series would be Directv.
you guys really need to get a clue about the economy and learn about the federal reserve and the effect of central banks.
there are a lot of posters on here that like to post a bunch of political bs because they are well aware that they are dependent upon there establishment day job so they can afford their expensive toys and comfort living.
The DEMS controlled the house for the first two years of Obozo's presidency and did nothing. And talk about spending? Owebama has spent more money in his first four years than all the other presidents combined. You can't spend more than you take in and O-blow-me doesn't have any plans to stop.
I like turtles!
@ therealmofo, stop drinking the coolaid dude! It will have irrepairable long term effects.
mgwest949-I respect riders with heart. I like bubba and have followed him for years. Just want him to respect guys that beat him and say straight up, they were better today. If u havent heard him make excuses, you must be new to the game. He has more excuses than the other guys put together. Its always the bike, my finger, the photographer, blah, blah. Dont matter....most folks see whats up.
Bush was handed Clintons house of cards
If you guys can quit b!tch!ng about politics, there is a "Inside the Outdoors" marathon going on Fuel right now..
@chainlube--dont forget Bush burned through a Budget surplus before he started showing deficit... 236 Billion surplus--projected to grow to 5.6 trillion Bush burnt through it all..
Politics realy suck.......
@therealmofo - Mogadishu. Look it up.
Or should I say Black hawk Down.
At this point Bubba is screwed from a PR standpoint
People will yap about his finishes on one leg and then yap when the kmee blows out
When I think of JS I picture his epic battles / crashes with the GOAT
i dots. Too stupid to spell idiots.
Thanks BD200
Inside the Outdoor's and the TGO rock.!
You guys should start a race team that sells Bull$it ..
All this political talk assumes that presidents and politicians are ACTUALLY in control of things.
That said, I can't see Windham in the booth - I think he wants to spend more time with family and such. Get away from the constant travel.
Bubba will never be without funding. He gets Obama bucks.
I think he should continue to ride with his knee as-is. He needs to repair his reputation as a quitter who won't ride unless everything is exactly perfect. Forget the meniscus. Meniscus, schmeniscus. Nobody out there feels 100%, ever! Just ride, son! You can't blame your results on Bush.
First of all, if anyone thinks we shouldn't have gone to war over 9-11, you all are myopic. The architects of 9-11 along with their coconspirators that were spread throughout the middle east needed to pay....big time. Secondly BD200, granted, there was a budget surplus of 236 billion when Clinton left office, but that is peanuts compared to Obama's spending. Oh yeah, I forgot to add these to the list of Obama's first term accomplishments:
14) Failed stimulus
15) GM=Government Motors=fail
16) Obamacare=unconstitutional
PS...maybe if O-Phuc-Up didn't tax the sh/t out of everyone, then maybe some of these race teams could afford to sponsor more riders. If you guys have been paying attention to the news, everyone is fleeing Cali for states with lower taxes.....(a la Phil Mickelson). When the ass hats who run California discover that there is no more tax revenue, maybe they will realize that socialism doesn't work!
+ all those politicians ride 4 strokes,all of them!
lets see , what to talk about.....Rosie O'donalds a hole bleaching or politics.....hmmm its a toss up......go to the felon Rush limbergers beans and oxycontin powered site to talk that SH*T......Politics=the entertainment division of big business....Havoc is damned if he does and damned if he doesn't....and it almost doesn't matter cause the alpha dog is done playin...RV1...tuff blocks must pay.......Bams Honda will return with Full squirell.or Full ram button......Love to see 41 get a win.....somebody needs to pi*s 22 off..that normally gets him goin...i gave up ever counting him out....#5 stop the cnc and the cad and get on the phone to WP,,,,,.....now get back to fixing western civilization.......Kdub thanks again..it was nice to see how a bike should truly be ridden at speed....
W took over during a recession and the dot com crash.
Is this a political website? It didnt look like one.
@preston thats right you did, just because I am not a Stewart as$ kisser dont be so quick to judge next time..
@chainlube, the GM bailout is going amazingly well..
@stimulus was a dumb idea, but you dont seem to have a complaint about the ones Bush did.. And how did Bush bailouit of the bamks turn out there ????
@I dont see a darn thing wrong with the richest country in the world having health insurance for everyone..we have over 2 million uninsured children in this country.. What is wrong with helping the less fortunate??
All you Republicans who cry about your tax money going to help the less fortunate, then dont say your political party is built on Christian beliefs..
Well, here we go again... Politocross Friday.
How easy is it for so many to find themselves loosing focus, going over the bars and right through the Tough Blocks at the mere mention of either the current or preceding two Presidents of this great country. Weeeeeeak. Just like everybody not on the podium, there are always the same old excuses and plenty of blaming too.
Your mental toughness is lacking, fellas. You just can't stay away from that refrigerator, the junk food vending machine, the drive through cheesy fries, 750 calorie burgers and sugar/carb loaded drinks and, oh yeah, the hostile comments about administrations past and present... can you? Probably the same bunch that is unable to find a few hours out of the 168 we get every week to make it to the gym, to get on the road bike or to get out there on the practice track and do an extra moto...?
Naaah; too much work. But I'll get back on track soon... It's still January, right? Maybe tomorrow... maybe next week. Eventually though... promise. How pathetic. The Election is over but still, the real topics of this blog (and many of the blogs here on Racer X) get punted over the berm by the meaningless ramblings of disgruntled voters, 'right' or 'left'. Let it go, guys. Even you must be bored by your own repetitive, asylum comments by now.
With 2 ACL repairs on both knees, I can confidently say (like many of you), each knee injury can be different depending on many variables. Of course you can try the preventative way but even in a top-shelf brace, a bad knee is only a 'dab' away from further damage. And then there's that mental thing... wondering about it before and during the moto... Even at James' top 1% skill level, it would be easy to mess it up further.
Someone mentioned him riding at about 80%...? Probably a pretty accurate assessment knowing how James can twist that throttle and how he's been fighting for 6-10th in the Mains lately. This really sucks for him- and all fans. It's just d@mn interesting when the #7 is on the starting line. But, I don't think you need to have a bum knee to understand that the unfortunate reality is that the FMOTP's year is really over.
Seems like the fan-favorite Kevin Windham, with his obvious cred & skills off the track, could easily attract Blue-chip level sponsors and put together a helluva team if that is appealing to him. It will be interesting to see how far he might be thinking outside the box and what he does in the next couple of years.
I could easily imagine David Bailey (still the all time best in the booth and an all-time favorite to watch on the track in his day) and Windham calling races. Seems like these guys together with... Jason Weigandt...? Now that..., that might be a surprisingly good balance in the booth.
from here on out everyone considering starting a new team should think about what ping said and have a product to promote and sell its simple business and lets not forget tax write offs
even when a rich guy backs a team Its more than likely to report losses at the end of the year and they are only gonna do that for so long
Wait..this IS RacerX right?ASK Pingaling a question right?He answered them.How did a douche bag for a President (current)and politics get involved?VITAL knockoffs here?LOL.
Keep the politics for another page.
This is our sport of SX sex and MX
Just the fact that all you non-poli-sci majors believe a president is in control of the economy indicates you've bought into the belief that the president actually has control. In actuality America's political structure has numerous checks and balances in order to minimize corruption and maximize democracy... this results in power being spread across government branches. There is no single blameworthy person or group. Both parties blame societal problems on each other in order to garner support to retain and attract voters.
I wish it was as simple as blaming one president or another, but simplicity breed misunderstanding.
Hate to see this site turn into another NRA thing ... LOL !
"All you Republicans who cry about your tax money going to help the less fortunate, then dont say your political party is built on Christian beliefs.."
Since when is it's the Governments right or job to decide what Charities my hard earned money goes to??
How did Obama's Solyndra bail out he was so proud of go?!
@please don't hate us
Stop commenting on this site please.
This site is about Motocross not politics.
Quit bringing up stuff that has nothing to do with moto. Idiot.
@persona what are you talkin about!?!? Obama stole Short's ride! lol /sacrcasm
This country gives an equal opportunity to EVERYONE!!! Don't feed me BS about less fortunate or poor! You are what you want to be. If you are lazy, want to sit on your arse all day, get a cane. Become a welfare rat! Collect few checks from people like us! If you want to get somewhere, get a job, go to school, learn a trade!!! It's that effin easy. Don't feed me any of that poor or unfortunate crap! I wish freakin welfare and Medicaid would shut down. We would live much better, believe me.
What makes this country one of a kind is that everyone has equal opportunity! Yet we have millions of lazy f$$ks that drag us down, sucking money out of our hard working families! Why are wealthy people paying more taxes??? Are they wealthy because they sat all day watching Jerry springer??? They went and learned, worked hard with their hands and or brains. IMO, tax bracket should be the same for everyone!
Need to cool off!!! Lol
Can't wait for Saturday !
Go RV! Go trey! DM CR and everybody!
i like turtles , too.
I love turtles.
Agreed, turtles kick ass!
i thought this is where people comment about motorcycles and racing. clearly, i am mistaken.
The best ass, is turtle ass. I love the political talk. It shows me how many ill-informed posters share my interest in MX. White black, socialism is socialism. suck-it!
Ping, great read. Nice job this week. I, too, love turtles. You political posters need to take that junk to Yahoo.
Turtles? Just turtles? I personally like snapping turtles!
Here you go People, this is why i like snapping turtles!
I have a question for Ping.
Ping, do you pong?
Do you guys know that JS7 and RV1 are 3 inches taller then Ping? On TV these guys look normal height. If you see them in person they look like 4th graders.
for god's sake, I'm gonna quit reading racerx articles & comments because of all this political crap. I come here to ESCAPE from that stuff! For the love of GOD, make it stop!
RacerX, can't you hire some squid to monitor this stuff and delete all the political rants? Hell, start a donation drive to fund it, I'll chip in a few bucks!
We all love MX & SX and hate to see teams fail due to the crappy economy.
The political discussion is relevant because we are all affected by high unemployment, poor job prospects, inflation & the rising cost of racing ie:intial purchase price, maintenance, high fuel costs,etc.)
Instead of arguing over Republican or Democrat- They are 2 sides of the same coin designed to divide us. Our representatives only represent corporations with money.
My suggestions
1- Eliminate lobbists - Stop the bribery
2- Eliminate unlimited political contributions - All elections publicly funded.
3- Research "The Federal Reserve" - They are not federal or part of the Gov., instead owned by international bankers. They alone cause ALL recessions, depressions & boom times. When credit is available = expansion, when they pull the plug = unemployment, failing businesses, foreclosures.
This has been going on since 1913 when the FED started- Do your research.
4- Require Feld to pay realistic purses in SX. Paying 150K purse would only be about $3 of every ticket sold. 20th place in main should pay min $1000.
5- Allow 250 2 strokes to compete in 250 class, more interesting & lower cost.
6- Hire marketing firm to bring in outside sponsors.
Hope Short finds a good time to ride for. And JDR guys get picked up too!
wow...It's obvious who listens to Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glen Beck in this thread...and there is a reason that these people are called "ditto heads"....because when you can't think for yourself....you really need someone to do your thinking for you..amusing

King Kong prequel being planned
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
It was only back in 2005 when the last King Kong film was made and even then, there must have been plans for another for the book Kong: King of Skull Island by Joe DeVito and Brad Strickland was already published before the film was made.
According to Variety, production company Spirit have acquired the rights to book, which charts the rise of Kong and how the gorilla ended up king of the island.
In the story there are other gorillas and dinosaurs too, all of whom play a part in rise of Kong. This is a story that has never been seen before; it follows the trend in films of this nature to explain how the characters got to where they are.
The new film will be making full use of motion capture technology to bring the characters alive.

I really like this headboard. The price was great, it's easy to put together, and it looks expensive. My only concern is that after putting the headboard together it wobbles. It isn't very sturdy, however it's priced well and after attaching it to the frame and placed against the wall lack of stability isn't a issue. Shipping was fast, I would definitely recommend this headboard.
I have been searching for months to find just the right headboard. As usual my taste far exceeds my budget so i was thrilled to find such a reasonable price on a headboard that i will be able to tailor to my changing tastes with a simple slipcover switch!
This headboard met all my expectations and more. It fits any universal bed frame, and the cover is very nice. I like that I can change the cover when I change my decor. The box it came in was manageable and the headboard was fairly simple to assemble. I would highly recommend this headboard!
I am extremely pleased with the king size headboard I recently purchased. It was easy to assemble and loved the way it was packaged as I had to transport it to another home and it fit easily on the back seat of a small car. The cover fits beautifully too. Would not hesitate to recommend this headboard and hope to purchase another one soon.
The delivery was fast...two days or so. Was suprised it came in such a small box. Glad I had someone to put it together for me. I could not have done it alone. Wish the colors avaliable were more than "neutral".
Good value for money and excellent delivery service. We bought a California King from you 4 weeks ago, great. A slight problem with the Queen, a couple of bolt holes did not line up. Still good value.

1943. Southern India. A young mother rocks her feverish child. She weeps, fearing he won't make it through the night. The Mother hears a knock on the door. A young monk, robes tattered, whispers, "If someone, anyone, agrees to take the boy's illness as their own . . . I can save his life."

Current projects associated with the IRIS Center are listed below along with any relevant links to external sites and biographical information.
This page will be updated on a continual basis as the IRIS Center staff accumulates data on ongoing member and affiliated researcher projects.
The Wide, Wide World Hypertext Archive | |
This project, directed by Jessica DeSpain, comprises a fully searchable hypertext archive of the illustrations, cover designs, and textual variants of the over 100 editions of Susan Warner's novel, The Wide, Wide World. These editions span a period of 100 years and their originals are housed in six different repositories. Because Warner's novel is a representative example of a text that was steadily reprinted in both Britain and America, the archive provides a compelling narrative of marketing, publishing and reading history from 1850 to 1950 and serves as a valuable teaching resource for both book history and literature courses. | |
Nar and Phu (Tibeto-Burman, Nepal): Field Research for an Audio-Visual Archive of Comparative Lexical and Discourse Material | |
Nar-Phu (Ethnologue: NPA, ca. 500 speakers, 84˚15E; 28˚40N) is a Sino-Tibetan language of Nepal which has shown a sharp decline in speakers due to emigration and the influence of national and other regional languages. This project provides documentation and archival quality data on Nar-Phu towards a comparative lexical database with other related and regional languages of Nepal. This project will also provide a transcribed, annotated corpus to facilitate analyses of the discourse function of morpho-syntactic structures. Additionally, this project will provide for the community a Nar-Phu/Nepali word-book aimed at primary school use, and copies of recordings for community archive and reference. This project is directed by Kristine Hildebrandt with assistance from student researchers Carl Bringenberg, Devang Patel, and Joshua Yardley. | |

News Release
Jakub Srocynski paced the men's team to a perfect 10-0 mark with two individual event wins on Saturday. |
Baltimore, Md. – The UMBC Men's Swimming and Diving team completed UMBC's first perfect undefeated season by a team in their 19-year Division-I era with a 136.5-105.5 win over Johns Hopkins on Saturday afternoon. The Retrievers finished dual meet competition at 10-0 while John's
The Retriever men's team, who entered the meet ranked eighth in mid-majors by Collegeswimming.com, was led by Jakub Srocyznksi as the senior took first place in the 200 yard freestyle with a time of 1:44.37, the 200 yard backstroke in 1:54.43 and anchored the Retrievers' 400 yard freestyle relay team that placed first in 3:15.81 as Srocyznski recorded the two best 50-yard splits in the race.
Other first place finishers by the men was Ryan Karrer in the 1,000 yard freestyle in 9:48.01, Kunakorn Yimsomruay in the 200 yard IM in 1:56.49, Jeffrey Salgado in the 1-meter diving event with a score of 244.35 and the 3-meter diving event with a score of 297.75 and Geza Szabo in the 200 yard butterfly in 1:54.84.
The UMBC women's team started off their fourth-straight victory by scorching the competition in the opening event, the 400-yard medley relay, as the Retriever quartet comprised of Amber Harris, Lindsey Prather, Jessica Prosen and Agnes Stanislawska finished in 4:00.88, topping second place by nearly nine seconds.
Stanislawska went on to win two more events for the Retrievers, taking first in the 200 yard freestyle in 1:54.25 and the 100 yard breaststroke in 1:06.17. Harris won the 100 yard backstroke in 1:00.18 and Prather placed first in the 200 yard IM in 2:12.66.
The UMBC diving teams set two new school records, both in the 3-meter diving event. Jeffrey Salgado's score of 297.75 for the men and Katie Spohnholz' mark of 270.60 on the women's side are new UMBC top scores in the 3-meter diving event.
This season the men's swimming and diving team defeated John's Hopkins, William & Mary, Rider, Navy, Binghamton, Seton Hall, Towson, Howard, George Washington, and Marist. Previously, only the 1999 UMBC men's soccer team has come close to a perfect year, finishing the regular season at 19-0-1, before bowing out in a 4-3 overtime loss to Duke in the First Round of the NCAA Tournament.
While the UMBC men's team finishes with a perfect 10-0 season, their year is not finished yet as they will aim for their eighth consecutive conference title and defend their America East crown at the America East Conference Championships held at UMBC on Feb. 18-21. The UMBC women's team will look to move up from their second place conference finish last year.

As mentioned in the Sunday Dispatch article "Credit-card skimming becoming an epidemic," the most effective way to protect against credit-card skimming is to never let the credit card out of sight, particularly at restaurants.
The Canadians seem to have adopted methods to prevent this type of skimming, by requiring servers to carry hand-held card swipers to the guest's table to process the payment in front of the guest. Great idea, and it's so easy.
Why are those darned Canadians always so progressive in protecting their citizens?
