Hello – please allow me to introduce myself – my name is Corrin. About 2 weeks ago, I was wandering along side a busy highway. A nice lady stopped and helped me get away from that dangerous road. I was hungry and covered in fleas – so bad that I had wounds and scabs on me from so many flea bites and my nails were grown out long and curved sideways. She took me home, gave me a bath, some food and took me to my foster mom's house. I didn't have a collar or microchip and my foster mom searched for about 2 weeks but could not find my owners. Can you believe no one was looking for me? Mom says I'm the cutest thing and very unique looking – almost like I couldn't decide whether I wanted to be white or fawn, so I chose both! Even though I'm mostly white, I can hear. I went to the vet and was treated for hookworms, an ear infection and got a manicure/pedicure (my nails are normal length now so I can walk much better). Unfortunately, I have heartworms but mom says that we can treat that – it will just take about 8 weeks to go through treatment. I will also need to be spayed but mom wants me to get used to our house and the other dogs before I start treatment. At first, I was really scared of going in the house (I have never been inside before) but after about a week, I realized that this was AWESOME. I'm not in the heat or cold and have my own room (crate) with a soft, warm bed and two meals a day. I like treats and discovered what toys are but don't chew them up or destroy them. I get along with all the dogs at my house (but don't really like the mean old lady – she doesn't like me and growls all the time). I will go in my room (crate) with a little treat to coax me and just lie down – I don't make any noise or try to get out. I've learned to go outside to potty and come right back in – if you don't hurry in this weather; you may get an icicle – haha! I take treats really gently, walk well on a leash (well, until you try to take me into a strange building). I need slow introductions to new things because I'm nervous going inside new buildings until I get used to it. I'm learning that the car is fun to ride in and I like to lie across mom's lap and give her kisses. She says I have a wrinkly, smoosh face – I guess that is a good thing. I also wiggle my nub and like to follow mom around the house. If you are interested in being adopted by me, please submit your application and we can arrange an interview. Nub wiggles, Corrin

MARQUEE PLAYERS TO RODEO: Recession? What recession? More famous names are set to move into Beverly Hills next year. Tom Ford, Judith Leiber and Italian yachting-themed label Paul & Shark are said to have signed deals to occupy retail space on the city's famed Rodeo Drive shopping corridor. A new Domenico Vacca store is also nearing completion at the north end of the street, which has been dominated by Italian arrivals of late, such as a soon-to-open Missoni and a relocated Max Mara store.

So. A while ago I was keen on looking a new mouse that would fulfill my needs... It should have some programmable extra buttons, preferably more than 2, which my Creative Fatal1ty 2020 had. I was looking around for Sidewinder, Cyborg mouse, Nova Slider X600, Ozone Smog and many others. But I felt I wont find a piece of equipment suitable for me. I saw the Cyborg R.A.T. mouse line, but didn't find those anywhere... Then, one day. I checked this odd looking monstrosity of a mouse called Silverstone Raven Gaming Mouse SST-RVM01B. It had plethora of buttons, giant thumb wheel, 5 profiles and it had gotten some nice reviews... AND it was dirt cheap. What I read from the reviews, the launch price was somewhere over $60-70, and that should've mean it would cost something at least over 50€ in Finland. BUT it was going for 32€ with delivery. I made my choice. Then, after I ordered it, I noticed it was going to take long time until they get the mouse. It was about 10 days after they got it to delivery. As I am keen to check all the available info before getting the product itself, I once again viewed the reviews and started to think about the placement of buttons. Back and forward were on the left side but unreachable for thumb. Then there was that monster sized wheel, that was not programmable in game mode. And on top of the wheel, a switch for DPI and/or game profile. So, what is the use of that one then, if I can't use it for gaming... Well, ok, it adjusts the DPI but the top button is just annoyingly placed. As I am used to gripping my mouse with my thumb, this mouse would not give a good place for thumb to grip it. Then, the day came. I got my mouse... AND IT WAS BIG AS H*LL! I tried to fiddle with it, started STALKER and tried to play for a maybe 2-5 minutes. Then I quit. No way I want to use that for gaming. Or any other activity... Left side buttons had just horrific placement. The manual shows they should be used with my index finger...! Aaaggh. I had thoughts about it before... MAYBE I could do some modding to the button placement... And then I started to think harder. And then. Well... I had to do it. It was not that expensive and it wouldn't give me a much of a headache if I couldn't do it and came up with a non-working-on-hold-mouse-mod-project that would never be finished. What happened next? [SORRY FOR THE OVER EXPOSURED PHOTOS] SE P1i has a weird flash
The obvious, take it apart! Thumb doesn't like its place It would want to be here. Sorry, no pic of the horrendous Wheel Next step is to start guessing where the new wheel will be located (see the white dot) TIMEWARP (or lazy photographer, or just too much into modding) Did some sanding on dremel tool. Feels already much better, says thumb. Here's what will be replaced. Took the axle from torx screwdriver (which was getting bored and not used), did a groove with dremel tool (not genuine) It sits nicely Then the hole for the axle: (remember the white dot?) Shorten the axle: (I think I got a step too far with this. Should've left a bit more of that. And it goes through the wormhole! What do you say thumb? Thumbs up? "..mmmaybe" Where I could get a textured, small thumb wheel with some grip...? Ahem! A screw from a speaker terminal? Worth a shot... And a button on top? U crazy? At first I tried to do a one piece button from aluminium but my dremel tool isn't the most accurate thing. So, I grinded some and then I failed. I grinded the thing flat and then sanded it a bit to get it even. Luckily, I had a bit more aluminium and tried to to a round object to be used as the thumb wheel button... Success! Yay! The Ol' button looks the newcomers from the distance...
TIMEWARP and the lazy photographer hits once again. This was the time when I was totally unsure how I could get the thumb wheel button to work... I thought I'll make the wheel spin freely while the button stays on the chassis. But my mind wouldn't let me do it that way. So, again sorry for the timewarp. I was fighting with my brains so hard I totally forgot to took pics. Don't know if you get it. Its kinda hard to explain... So here is the new invention. The button will turn with the thumb wheel and there is a wire that goes through the thing. This thing is a hybrid made from basic plastic knob's insides (the metal shroud that has a screw for attaching it to an axle) and the there is a one half bit of this kind of connector. The hex screw goes through both, and the connector is inside the shroud, making the axle fit. Then I made a little shroud on the axle that works as the other contact of the button. The axle and frame itself is connected to the buttons other contact. The wires will go to the buttons contacts. Some visual & mechanical testing with the thumb wheel on... Then the wires from the thumb wheel buttons slider contacts to the "motherboard". I decided to use a fan header from dead mobo so the mouse will be easier to dismantle. I got two sense connector+wires from Scythe fans and I dismantled the little connectors and soldered the button wires to them. Other one ready The button is ready for some testing... UUGGLYY! DOES IT really work?? I think... Oh... I think... ...IT DOES! Next some button disappering action... and out-of-my-mind way of filling that huge hole! Guess what that is? Oh no you didnt! Yes. I'm sorry. It is hot glue. I may now go and bang my head to some harder material than hot glue. Here you can see the "slider" I had to insulate it WITH HOT GLUE because the thumb wheel edge touched it too easily and changed the profile. I also grinded a good bit off from the inside of the thumb wheel. Here it is with working thumb wheel but no side buttons. ME WANT SIDE BTN!x2!
Side buttons Here is the doner I had to give it a quite some thought before I ended up with this button layout. After some time I then placed my hand on the mouse and marked the spots that would be convenient for my thumb. I cut the holes and tested how the buttons would fit.. I first thought about putting the switches on the buttons, but then I decided otherwise Placement for switches... At last, they are on the spot.. Then wires for the switches I had some problems getting all the buttons to work, but it seems that it was a driver issue. The USB cord makes a tight turn on the front of the mouse and it's a little hard to get it on its own space.
It took me three days straight! Never done anything this ambitious.. I should've had some plastic filler and things like that... Well. Maybe I'll give it a good finishing touch...
"Finished" Still needs some gentle touch. Should get rid of the led... I thought I'd paint the thumb wheel black and leave the red stripe there... Then I should get rid of that hot glue and get some filler instead, maybe polyester resin could do the trick. What about doing the side with real carbon fiber... The right side would need some kind of rubbery coating, its too slippery on hand.. Maybe I could mold the side a bit and get better grip for my ring finger..
nice work i think this raven company should fire their engineer and hire you, i mean seriously side buttons with index finger? my finger starts to hurt just thinking about it
Wicked idea, kudos. I always thought that the "ball" on the origional looked like some kind of wierd growth...
To tell you the truth, this mouse acts a bit weird. It tends to do annoying "mini" movement when clicking (at the same DPI as the Creative) and the cursor tends to bounce. I have to toggle "Enhance pointer precision" from control panel to minimize it. On top of that, it has an occasionally problem with registering movement. Normally it is when I try to move it to the left, cursor just stays there for a second. So for now, I have really nothing good to say about the Philips PLN2030 twin-eye laser. Oh, and this mouse supports USB polling speed only up to 500Hz. And I have always used 1000Hz with the creative. The difference is there. But for S.T.A.L.K.E.R., this mouse does feel nice. It's the desktop use, that's falling short.
EDIT: At desktop use, the mouse cursor has started to have its own will. When moving mouse slowly, it just stucks. Sometimes it registers X or Y but not that one which you want it to. Sometimes neither. I may have to try desolder the laser eye and move it closer to the bottom.
I personally would have added a fan to that hole in the mouse and put some modders mesh over it, but I liked your idea. All in all, very good job. Hot glue is amazing for modding, however you need to know it will get soft and melt when you least expect it. I have started using JB Weld instead of hot glue, and I would personally use bondo for the side.
Arrggh. This mouse is driving me mad. Why EVERY last peripheral I buy, are so damn :bananas: ! The skipping: I have Ulti-Mat Solid, a plastic very high sens, low friction pad. The mouse tends to skip badly sometimes, in slow movement, nothing happens until moving it at higher speed. Doesn't seem to happen much in gaming, but it could just be that I don't notice it so easily when shooting a raging bloodsucker in deserted village in Army warehouses... So to remedy the problem, I decided to sand some plastic off the mouse bottom, so the sensor would sit a bit closer to the pad. Well, this didn't help. Next step, I bought a Steelseries QcK pad. I thought that it could help. Well, it got Really bad with this pad. Maybe the "stalling" was gone but now the mouse started to jump all the time to upper left corner, this happened when I realigned my mouse on the pad. So then I thought, "shouldn't sand the bottom". Had to go back to the Ulti-Mat, which by the way worked wonders with the old Creative mouse. Back/forward: This issue has been around quite a while, don't know what would help it... But when any of the buttons are set as back or forward, they just don't work in Windows Explorer, but work in internet browser. And time to time, they stop working altogether. Though the creative mouse does work in this aspect (without a driver), so it must be an error in the Silverstone driver or something. Moments back, I had blank left mouse button (unassigned) in 3 of the 5 profiles! I struggled with that one, but the cure was to simply right-click the Silverstone icon and "Reset to default". Of course I didn't find it before being in contact with Silverstone. And now the DPI? I really dont know what is happening, this mouse seems cursed. Just before I started to type this message (the biggest reason I decided to reply), the DPI went crazy. Before that, I tried to remedy the back/forward problem by closing the mouse software. The oled display showed 500 DPI for all the 5 profiles. And when I scrolled the DPI settings, it went from 000 to 900 (with normal 100 DPI intervals) and the cursor moved like my rig was trying to compute the answer to all questions in life = Really sluggish. I snapped few pics with my phone of the DPI screen and after a minute or so, it just worked as normal.

Jonathan Mintz, Commissioner of the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA), was appointed by Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg in 2006 and has been with the Department since 2002, serving as Acting Commissioner and Deputy Commissioner. During his tenure, Commissioner Mintz has tackled large-scale enforcement and litigation work focused on ending industrywide deceptive practices in the consumer marketplace; significantly increased the volume of New Yorkers protected and educated about their finances, such as debt collection and tax preparation; and has led the nation's most comprehensive campaign to boost awareness and uptake of the Earned Income Tax Credit for working families and individuals.
Commissioner Mintz also launched the Department's Office of Financial Empowerment (OFE). OFE is the first local government initiative in the nation aimed expressly at educating, empowering, and protecting those with low incomes so they can build assets and make the most of their financial resources. Profiled in The Economist, American Banker, and American Public Media, OFE represents a unique approach to poverty reduction, long-term financial stability, and asset building by leveraging the powers and opportunities of municipal government.
Commissioner Mintz is the founder and co-chair of Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg's Cities for Financial Empowerment (CFE) Coalition, a natural outgrowth of OFE in which member cities use their leverage within city government to advance innovative financial empowerment initiatives that promote access to safe and affordable financial products and services, increase financial literacy and asset-building opportunities, and provide greater consumer protections for city residents. In addition, CFE uses its members' collective power to advance the financial empowerment agenda on a state and national level. Prior to joining the Department of Consumer Affairs, Mintz taught Second grade at the Little Red School House in Greenwich Village and was a member of the founding faculty of the Roger Williams University School of Law. He taught at Chicago Kent College of Law and practiced at the law firm of McCutchen Doyle Brown & Enersen in San Francisco.
The Commissioner earned his Juris Doctor from Cornell University, holds a Master's degree in Education from the Bank Street College of Education and a Bachelor of Arts in English from Indiana University.

"Nomophobia" Highly Prevalent Among Moms; 46% Admit Being Addicted to Their Smartphone
Since 2011, 75% More Moms Say Mobile Devices Are a Distraction from Parenting Duties
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- BabyCenter®, the #1 pregnancy and parenting mobile and web destination worldwide, today released its 2013 Mobile Mom Report, an update to a 2011 report and the latest installment in BabyCenter's 21st Century Mom® Insights Series. In partnership with Research Now, BabyCenter has revealed new insights surrounding moms' smartphone and mobile technology adoption, usage, and behaviors. The findings of this study were the result of an in-depth online survey of over 1,350 moms, women pregnant or with children up to 9 years old, and other adults.

"What's most fascinating is that although mobile has proven to be a core utility for Mom, for the first time, she is admitting that it can distract from her parenting," says Mike Fogarty, SVP and Global Publisher at BabyCenter. "Still, she just can't stop reaching for her phone. One third of moms tell us they'd return home for their forgotten smartphone but not for their wallet. In prior reports, we clearly saw heavy mobile usage, but our latest study shows more of the reality of everyday use, both good and bad."
Leap from Leisure to Productivity
More than ever before, moms are using mobile devices for healthy and useful activities like seeking information, managing their family's needs, and maintaining schedules. Moms count on technology to stay organized; in fact, more than half say their smartphone is like their "backup brain."
In just two short years since the last survey was conducted, Mom's activities have migrated from leisure to productivity. In our latest study, 81% of moms reported using their smartphone to help her manage her day, an increase of 212% since 2011. In 2011, Mom's top activities were mostly about personal enjoyment: social media (72%), gaming (72%), weather (69%), listening to music and podcasts (53%), and shopping (42%). Now, her activities are about getting the job done; 60% use it for banking and finance, kids apps (52%), parenting social media (64%), productivity tools such as calendars (81%), searching for information (88%), and shopping (63%).
The Nomophobic Mom
Both nomophobia – the fear of being without mobile devices – and mobile anxiety syndrome are hot topics now, as mobile devices continue to become ubiquitous. According to the study, 87% of moms are using smartphones, an increase of 34% since 2012, and moms' tablet usage has doubled from 29% in 2012 to more than 60% in 2013. However, even though moms report conveniences from their mobile devices, a third say it actually distracts them from their parenting duties, an increase of 75% since 2011 (up from 18%).
"Smartphones provide Mom with much-needed access to friends, family, and the outside world when she might otherwise be restricted by her children's schedules," says Robi Ludwig, psychotherapist and BabyCenter.com contributor. "Two in three (66%) moms reported that their smartphone helps reduce the isolation of motherhood and more than half said it brings her closer to others."
Sixty-nine percent of moms said that they love their smartphone and 46% said they're addicted to it. Smartphones are so vital to Mom's daily life that she checks it at every possible opportunity: while on the go (96%), shopping (95%), when watching TV (94%), in the car (94%), in the kitchen (91%), and in the bathroom (80%).
"Smartphones can be an important coping mechanism, as moms, especially new moms, may find difficulty adjusting to their new lives," adds Ludwig. "However, the extreme dependence on smartphones and mobile devices can become a complex syndrome, with characteristics similar to obsessive-compulsive disorders."
Being without her phone has caused so much dread that 29% of moms panic when their phone's battery dies while 14% feel bored and only 9% feel relaxed as if they're "off-duty." To always stay connected, 79% of moms sleep next to their phones, 80% check it before bed, and 84% check it again first thing in the morning. More than half of moms say they simply cannot live without it and that it has changed their lives.
Different Devices for Different Uses
Mom's smartphone is her "do everything" device, but it's not always her go-to. Depending on which device best fits her needs, Mom's preferences are different:
When it comes to selecting a smartphone, moms prefer the iPhone over devices using the Android platform. Fifty-seven percent of moms have an iPhone (7% more than the general population), and 38% use Android (7% less than the general population).

James Stewart Featured in ESPN The Magazine
Tuesday, February 5, 2013 | 4:50 PMYoshimura Suzuki's James Stewart is featured in the latest issue of ESPN The Magazine. Check out a sneak-peek below.

Check out KING CAIROLI
in our Latest issue of Racer X available now.Americans know very little about seven-time FIM World Champion Tony Cairoli, but in Europe he's treated like royalty. Page 102.
The Conversation
rut roh . . . .
dude looks like a lady. just sayin
What the....
Is this why JS7 has been getting spanked lately. I hope big James beats the black off him 4 this!
This should be a good thread!! LOL
you've got to be kidding me hahahah
It's probably from the youtube video he made a few years ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxNKIEz4vAk
I mean they might have got the idea for the ESPN the magazine thing from that video that James made.
Why is he featured in ESPN??? Why?? He hasnt won anything since 2009, his best finish since is 4th place.. So why him and not Dungey or RV, or even Reed.. He has been more succesful in the last 2 or 3 years.. Can anyone answer me that?? He gets more press than any other 10th place guy I have ever seen... (8th for now) Can somebody answer those questions, without acting like a Stewtard.. I'm just curious..
Maybe those boots could have saved his knee : )
@therealmofo is because he is an afro.
Black history month probably. Where's WHITE history month?????????
Sneak peak below what?
Could I have that very expensive bass when you're done using it as a prop?
I have heard there are rumors of a gay motocrosser..
Its no wonder casual fans who only watch maybe one race a year thinks he wins every title every year.. He is about the only guy who gets press, even Racer X puts alot of press his way.. More than the champions..
That picture really seems like a bad F'n idea.
I can't believe his dad, his agent, his brother, his mom, his friends or hell even Eric Sorby, might have known this was not an image builder.
James, you are not Prince, Jimmy Hendrix, Bob Marley or Lenny Kravitz......You race motorcycles, it is who you are, it is what made you. Stay the course brother!
A Rick James want a bee ! Why why are we still watching Stewart, the whole white black issue should be over now, lets just get down to racing.
He has not won anything in ages heck he isnt even that competitive and he is not the best, so what is it like MC said he has gone hollywood and he is a minority inh a sport filled with white guys, ESPN wont do a story on Villipota he is just a hard working motocrosser he dosent look like Rick James or jay z or some freak on the hip hop scene all this does is destroy James as an athelete and destroy his reputation as a serious motorsports star let him go be hollywood at least he can make money doing that because he will never be taken seroius in Supercross again
Oh man..... this is just plan stupid. Must be RedBull money because it sure aint results. Then again, we wanted to be more like NASCAR and they dont really equate press and points standings either.
Umm, yuck.
That's the worst press for MX/SX i have ever seen.
Anything for money i guess.
It really makes me wonder if he has a girlfriend........
Yeah, I just don't see how a borderline Transvestite or cross dresser photo does anything to help his(our) sport. I mean is that the best you can do to be an ambassador for the sport????? What does it have to do with MX/SX?
You say you care about the fans, well a hell of a lot of them are kids. I am glad my kid who has been a James fan since age 8 is now 17 so I do not need to explain this to him.
James just does not seem to be able to do anything right in the court of public opinion. I know it is just a joke, fun and games whatever. Just seems like poor judgement again and makes you really question his intelligence?
I'm Rick James .. ha ha.. heck yea James... This shows your dynamic personality.. who cares what all these low lifes say James they will never ever accomplish what you have accomplished in your career.. they are just jealous haters who race in the d class and sit home playing video games all day.. I think this photos tight and shows James sense of humor.
ESPN The Mag..Music Issue...Continue the flaming.
The ability to make fun of yourself is sometimes under-appreciated. In his defense, James is the only guy that could pull this off. I do agree the cop arresting the two hookers is getting close to a very inappropriate stereotypic reference.
Are you guys all seriously bit***** about this? Can't a guy have a sense of humor? At least he has some personality unlike RV2!
The ESPN magazine that's coming out with James is gonna be a music issue. Hence the rick James outfit.
Why? Sad. Howabout giving someone else good press. This guy needs to get back to basics and start over.
She's a very kinky girl
The kind you don't take home to mother
She will never let your spirits down
Once you get her off the street, ow girl
@Briggan Stewart doesnt play music, he is supposed to be a motocross racer--not an "entertainer"....
Sense of humor, What did James say his goal was a few years ago, to beat MC's all time record, that was most important to him, now its to be like all the other freaks in hollywood I bet his Dad just loves the picture of his Son the greatest supercross rider of all time NOT, and never will be that, what his Dad sacrificed all those hours at the track and on the road and money for was to make him a freak like Lady GA GA and Marilyn manson, he dosent care about wins he cares about GREEN he dosent want to brake records he want to make Records IE CD.s and freak Videos Go for it you will never be MC,RC,RJ,BH, not even KDUB you have made Supercross a Joke Great sence of humor, I guess you dont need to get your Knee fixed to make records But you do to break them GO RV1
Seems people will crucify Stewart over anything he does. I though the picture was worth a chuckle. They should probably disable the comments in this article; everyone can see it's headed in a bad direction.
Well as they say in Show Biz .... "If they're talking about you it's good" but if it would be better if we were talking about results. Just milking what's left of the James Stewart "franchise" I suppose ...... the flashy black moto-cross racer phenom who was unbeatable .......... in 2008.
Even the motocross racers are getting bent... I remember when motocross was for men, not transvestite sissies.
It's a joke you morons. He's trying to look like Rick James.
It's publicity for the sport seeing how we get almost none. You want riders to be paid more and for motocross to be treated like a real sport rather than some backwoods redneck activity, then let it grow. Right now privateers don't get paid jack sh**. You can't even make a living off MX unless you're a top 5 guy, tell me what other respectable sport is like that? Meanwhile, a 3rd string linebacker on a pro NFL team is making $300,000/year to warm the bench.
Stop holding back the sport. Stop being a bunch of idiots.
Although I wouldn't be surprised if it's "because he's black" rather than anything else, like it was the last time ESPN featured JS7. It wouldn't hurt for someone else to get a feature too in ESPN or another major sports magazine. Nothing against JS7 for this image or feature, good for him, I'm more against ESPN than anything.
Just add it to the list, and people wonder why the real fans of racing take him less and less seriously as time goes on.
You Must Be a Liberal Democrat, the first thing you run to is cutting off free speech and debate if you dont happen to agree with it, I never said I did not like James, and I think at one time he had the ability to be one of the greatest motorsports atheletes of all time I have seen him live a bunch of times and i loved his skill he used to do stuff no one else could but the minute someone else came along faster he rode over his head a broke his body apart took his money and then went hollywood You never seen Dale Earnhardt in a freak show and as far as that goes MC and Randy L as a gag had blue hair but he rode a yamaha when you are an ICON in a motorsport you dont become a freak show unless you are a freak like Travis Pastrana or Brian Deegan or your are in the Metal Malisha and James cant do what they do if he tried You dont see Jeff Gordon ata Gothic church gathering with black lipstick Its Just a fact when you are Famous in Motorsport you dont become a freakshow unless that is part of the GIG like freestyle Sorry But I do Like James and wish the best for him but his time has come to Bug out or fix his knee and get serious about racing
He can do whatever he wants cause he is Rick James b-tch. I think the photo is funny as hell. Everyone wonders why he gets so much press for one he is a great rider and yeah all post that you idiots write it gets noticed and they keep them coming. Everyone goes through a struggle he will get back on track.
It started with the scarf, now this.
I remember seeing milsaps in a pair of daisy dukes in a magazine but that's ok cause it was not James right. No matter what he does he is still better then us on bike
Are those boots the new NIKE/JS7'S?
@jorstin--Now its politics, and you mention Dale Earnhardt like he is some God?? Now you just sound like a hillbilly.. Dont do that, it makes all of us who hate this pic look dumb..
@rcx1---We want the "sport" to grow, and be about athletes playing a sport.. NOT be "entertainers" and look like Pro wrestling.. We want our athletes to be taken serious as athletes, not be laughed at and looked upon as clowns..
Cocaine is a hell of a drug......Charlie Murphy....!!!!!!!
It's a celebration, b!tches!!
Haters make you famous! Stewart laughs all the way to the bank. Ha ha
Y'all are so fickle it's sad! Stewie is one of the few champions of the sport that has personality and talent! Don't whine about this sport dying when you (the fan) are the first to throw someone like James under a bus. Grow up and lighten up! Be thankful for what little coverage the sport and its champions get.
Hannah did a jump in his underwear and no helmet for a magazine in the 1970's and Rick Johnson did a nude thinking man pose, these guys know the more that people talk about them good or bad the bigger and more famous they become.
Why does this picture make me think about the time Eddie Murphy was arrested while trolling for male prostitutes???
He was playing around with 'rick james' stewart about 7 years ago- where have you guys been?
And @JBryant- you need some therapy- you must be a descendant of 'Anita'.
@jorstin ....easy country.....its a joke...hes enjoying his life outside of racing....if hes happy with 4th thats his problem ..because he doesn't please your particular set of values makes ZERO difference ..and we get you don't like 'freaks'..lol.(.better not visit that Californee.they got cement ponds)..somebody will fill those boots( not those pimp boots , lol MX boots) if he stops sellin bikes and gear..maybe he'll start sellin Rickenbacker bass'es or join a band and play some funk.........@therealmofo..i'm afraid its more than a sport...its also his career....theres an old saying 'any publicity is better than NO publicity....maybe hes trying to change the hardcore blow up a golf course image or freestyle crazy daredevil or the HD toughguy image thats been presented to the masses........what he does when hes not on the bike is his own damn business...i think hes a somewhat immature rich guy having a good time...good for him. I'm sure ESPN and hollywood came to James and not vice versa...you'd all turn down the money right?????...all that said I'd much rather see him healthy , racing the Zook and being more competitve........Nascar blows ..we don't need to be like that 4 hr. boring endless product placement, with 5 good laps of racing......it was better when bumpers were chrome and dudes rolled cigs up in their sleeve...lol
I am glad Stewart can have fun with something like this and not worry about what a few wound-tight SX/MX fans think. Worrying about how this affects the image of SX/MX is silly. And expecting Steward to act and behave like Dale Earnhardt or Jeff Gordon is ridiculous. There have been more than a few NASCAR racers and other sports icons appear in full drag. Who effing cares?
Most of us here like Stewart just like we like all the other racers. We respect their talent and love watching them race. We understand that in a sport where injury is always lurking that it is extremely hard for a racer to stay on top.
It is sad that there are a handful on here that can't stand Stewart, nor accept him for who he is, and feel such a great need to denigrate him and anyone who doesn't share their vitriol -- usually injecting some completely unrelated and ignorant political bs.
For those who claim they used to like Stewart, but somehow his career path let them down -- I would say that those expectations were unreasonable.
That's awesome how could they use any of the other riders it would be like interviewing a brick, with sponsors. James has a sense of humor, if he can't have fun and do whatever he wants with his success why live? How many guys out there racing have had a perfect season? Or a tv show? Look at all these comments bubba is STILL more popular than the rest.
And yet ... look how many comments this page got. lol Who's the sucker here folks? PT Barnum was right. You hater guys keep paying the bills by generating the hits. How ironic. James is the master of publicity.
OK so ESPN re-created 8 album covers with current athletes. That takes the edge off of it, there is a link on racerx twitter.
Hasn't won anything in ages?? Really??? Did he not win the 1st two outdoor nationals of 2012 on a new bike? Don't hate the player. hate the game!!
That's really an exact recreation. It looks the same street even. If there would have been a link on this article, that would have probably cut this comments section down by 80%.
Still like that bass, overpriced as they may be.
The results speak for themselves, for the fastest man on the planet he has not placed in the top three in points in either series going on Four years, did you here me correct Four years, he is fast, maybe he can turn it around this year but he needs to get his knee fixed, but we al know why he didnt because pressure from his new team 2 years in a row with nothing to show for it but he takes a chance of screwing himself up bad look what happened to RGIII when he did that i say fix the knee and come back and show what you can do, but he is worried about becoming Mr Irrelevent and I can understand that
Maybe he will make top three in the rick james look alike contest or top three in Hollywierd but not on the track where he gets paid to do it
JS7 is more than a rider. ALL of the top guys are - they're paid performers. They become a brand. RC, K-Dub, Reed, all the top guys do it. JS7 is the first uh, non-white guy to come in and kick-azz, and he's got a sense of humor about it. Why not make bank while you can? I'm surprised that so many people fault James for doing what other riders wish they could do. Publicity makes bank. Everyone in show business understands that. Ask the folks at Feld. They'll tell you.
JS7 can come to my house wear his muddy boots on my couch...
Mad props to you JS7!!!!
@ jorstin and tonewall Please.... you guys and some others need to start using periods and paragraphs so other people can at least read your opinions without skipping over due to exhaustion.
I didn't know Dr Phil was giving degrees in online keyboard therapy.
But seriously people take this picture for what its worth, a quick laugh, then move on. What James is doing here, plus everything else he does in his personnel life in no way infringes on any of us. So let him be and live his life how he wants, sure I hope its in the fast lane instead of the funny lane like this though.
he should of had that freak suit on when Barcia and Millsaps passed him.....he was pretty much standing on a corner both times.
So he looks like a flamer and makes MX/SX look like a farce.....he's making himself some more skrilla for the compound and the ho's.....obviously his only priority at this point......racing isn't.
Anyone order their JS racing jersey yet?
I'm failing to understand why these people hop on here and bash JS7? "James this and James that blah blah blah".
If ESPN chose him for this particular part in this series of shots evolving other sports celebrities as well… Then… Who the #$%# cares! James is good for the sport and you have him to thank for what MX\SX is today.
Before James we had never seen a riding style like his before. Now that everyone has adapted to the new style… We have more competition… So um your welcome!
Why don't you tell us why you're really angry…? Same reason the PGA is… Just my opinion…
Maybe JS7 is exactly what he's suppose to be...... Windham never won anything for how many years?? And you guys are all over his hairy bean bag. James is fast, faster then Windham, faster then many. He's one some titles at every level there is, not many riders can say that. He's went 24-0 in the outdoors, only RC can say that as well. All these people know what he's suppose to be, and what he's suppose to do. But like I said up top. Maybe he is who he is suppose to be. Just a kick ass motocross racer! When he's gone, you'll appreciate what he's done in this sport a lot more.
@STANLEY106 White history month is a 11 month affair. lol. JK
People FYI it is Black History month. ESPN does this every year on top black athletes, get your head out of your @sses Please. Muhammad Ali hasn't done anything in over 30 years but there will be an article about him this month. lol
Will Muhammed Ali be in drag? Imagine someone picking up ESPN mag.....knowing nothing about MX and seeing that.....yeehaw. Do they wear helmets?
Also if anyone went to the website you would have known that ESPN has a whole thing of athletes doing a cover of an album Cover. James always impersonates Rick James
here is the article on ESPN.
Maybe he is.....well, I think it was meant to be....uh, perhaps they were going for a......oh hell, i'm out!!@
@therealmofo....pull your head out of your ass dude!! YOu and a few of your cronies on here really need to get over yourselves!! You don't want an "entertainer"?? Really???? Then i guess you don't want the sport to stick around do you?? SX/MX racing absolutely is "entertainment".....you guys who think it is all about eating dirt for breakfast and poopin' dirt-clods just need a dose of reality!! Why do you think the stadiums (hopefully) get filled for these races?? Do you really believe it's because everybody who goes is a "hard core racer" (like you apparently are) haha?? No, they go to be entertained.....and while I agree that sometimes the flash becomes a little much in ALL of sports, until you change the overall mindset of the audience, the majority of them will still eat this stuff up.........and organizers know this to be true. Every single sports athlete is in the "entertainment" business buddy, the sooner you accept that, the better off you'll be!! As far as "why" JS7 gets this much press?? You are the answer my friend....once again whether you like it or nor, or whether you deny it (which you will)...you are the reason why. Nobody and I mean absolutely nobody has ever been as polarizing in this sport as James Stewart...good or bad....nobody has come close, and in todays market, that is exactly what promoters and sponsors are looking for...bottom line. People pay attention to the guy, even if you think it is not warranted, so maybe you should hate the game and not the player!!! Oh, and where the hell is your sense of humor??LOL. You guys are too damn funny!!
What do you suppose makes him so polarizing in this sport?
@Ref-man--give me a break douchebag!!!!! you would be saying the same as everyone else if it was anybody else except Stewart in that pic....I go to the races to be entertained by "RACERS" not performers.. How hard is that to understand??? You are a one-rider fan. I ask a simple question and you insult, typical of a Stewtard... You know as well as I do he got into ESPN the mag based on race.. Not results... And "fans"( I use the term loosly) like yourself is a big reason I am turned off of Stewart... You attack anyone who simply does not like those antics that Stewart does.. No worm dances on the finish line, or the sprinkler, or driving Ferarris onto the track, and certainly not pics like the embarresment above..
You are right, we fans go to the races to be entertained--BY THE RACING ITSELF... guys like you go because of entertainers.. Its what makes you a Stewtard, not a moto fan.. When Stewart is gone, you will be too..
IF he had any real stones, he would have dressed like the Po-Po! Missed a good opportunity to make lite of the situation. That would have been classic, and if he wanted to retain the ghey element, maybe a bike cop (ala Chips)?
@ therealmofo
harsh words but I agree with you 100% .....been making the argument for quite some time re: JS bringing fans and awareness to the sport we love! He doesn't bring fans who will learn to appreciate MX/SX and grow with the sport. He brings Bubba fans...and the moment he's done so too will they be! Can't wait.
hahaha Preston..
the Grand Master of the Bubba club.......what took you so long....figured you'd be on here making excuses the moment it was posted.
What was Bubba trooper doing when he got arrested for impersonating an officer? Recreating an episode of Shaft?
"What was Bubba trooper doing when he got arrested for impersonating an officer? Recreating an episode of Shaft?"
I don't care who you are, that's funny right there!!
@Preston is back being a typical Stewtard--calling anyone who isnt a fan of this pic a racist.. And we all know who the racist is..its Preston.. He even called me a Tea Party member, when that is the farthest from the truth.. I guess if you arent a fan of Stewart acting like Dennis Rodman you must be a Tea Party member and a racist!!! LOL!!!!!
@racist Preston--The circus that surrounded idiots like Rodman in drag is one reason I hate that pic.. I dont want that in motocross--sorry.. If you do then go follow the clown act that is the NBA------Me not liking that pic, has NOTHING to do with Stewarts race at all...you accusing me of that shows where you stand.. Like I said before you are a racist.. I just want moto to be class and professional, not a clown act.....
HAHAHAHA, that's great :)
Here's the original
I'm kinda in the middle on this one because while I have a sense of humor and love it that others do too, I HATE the bull$%# clowning in ANY sport! I can't stand NFL players doing their "routines" after a touchdown. When your team wins, do all the crazy stuff you want, otherwise, keep your head in the game/race!!! Same thing in the NBA I've noticed at times. Hopefully once hockey gets on the same level of the spotlight as these other sports, they'll refrain from acting like freaks. As far as this Stewart article, I see the Rick James spoof, and I think it's a little funny, he definitely pulls it off. I'm not offended by it however I get why it's a turnoff to some here. I mean, to be fair I can see guys like Reed, Windam, and maybe Barcia doing something funny in an article, or on a video clip, but James doing the Rick James thing? What can I say? I guess James/ESPN got the reaction they were hoping for. As far as Stewarts fans, it does bother me somewhat that he can do no wrong and I not saying ALL his fans are like that, but I'd say many (most) are. I have a couple buddies that actually creep me out sometimes with their fascination of him as if they're a bunch of women and he's Oprah. And for those that might call me a racist for the Oprah remark, I'll remind you in advance that at least half of her following is and has always been white women. Anyway, my point is, I don't mind the humor, but I too prefer to stick to racing, and I like talking about it with others that are objective about their favorite riders. Not "my guy is great, all others suck", and with no real explanation or even knowledge of the sport. If any of you happen to get into a discussion with any "fans" of MX just do a simple trivia asking them what each color flag represents, or better yet, ask them if they know "when will the AMA go back to '4strokes'?? LOL
@Preston--same BS from you, being a racist and calling people racist names for not kissing your boys as$....get a life Stewtard..
Nice Avatar Scubber! Where ya been.....figured you'd be all over this..lol
Just wondering? Since he's not a teen anymore...is it too late for him to change the world?
Sense of humor kids....RJ posed in the nude for Fox back in the day. This is James being funny and controversial, ...and he is so on some small level - at least enjoy the publicity. Nevermind that the gig is 3 years old now. That's James Stewart Beeeatch!
He looks like Rick "superfreak" James. Why?
" he could dry hump a Monster Energy Boy on the podium " You're offside Scrubber.....funny as hell but twisted all the same....lol
First non-white to kick azz? Was Chuck Sunn white?John Desoto? At least do a little research before making stupid comments!
I haven't checked this out yet....and now wish i hadn't.
This is what non-fans will see as an intro to the sport? I remember the first time most famous motorsports stars were in mainstream magazines they did their best impression of someone Eddie Murphy is out looking to give a ride to. yea yea, I know Rick James. It was not funny when it was a simple youtube video, it is scary now that it is in ESPN magazine......complete with hookers being arrested in the background??? Let's repeat that, hookers being arrested in the background.
Hey why not go the whole 9 yards and have a crack pipe somewhere in the photo? If we're gonna portray Rick James, do it right. Hiw many teenagers have a clue who Rick James is and now just think Bubba is a drag queen who walks the streets with a bass?
Why is it these NFL players seem to do something cool for this shoot?
What a bunch of #%€#in idiots.
I'm sick of all this racist nonsense. The only reason people single JS7 out is due to race. Period. And it's all blather. This shizzit was solved in the Civil War, people. Crawl out into the light.
What's wrong with Teabaggers? Well, let's start with the bed sheets.
SuperSXFanMan = Complete idiot and troll!
all I can say is Scrub is on it today!
We may not all like his message but he's a hell of a lot more intelligent than you care to believe.
"You stewtards know right well that if somebody photoshopped that picture you would be going hysterical calling the person who created a "racist" and a "hater".
stewtards would be whining about "stereotypes" and "profiling".
that's a fact.....
ScrubThis says:
"To the stewtards claiming just have a sense of humor about the picture ...You stewtards know right well that if somebody photoshopped that picture you would be going hysterical calling the person who created a "racist" and a "hater". stewtards would be whining about "stereotypes" and "profiling". But either way, the MX/SX would say the picture is ridiculous."
Sorry @ScrubThis: The lil'Stew was imitating 80's funk rocker 'Rick James' long before you crawled out of your stale fortune cookie. REAL motocross fans know that.
" It would be great to have a bunch of gay guys showing up at MX nation wearing thongs and rubbing sunscreen all over each other just like at a "pride parade". lil'stew could have a rainbow for his but patch. Heck, just imagine how how creative lil'stew could get with his butt patch."
WOW! you are a raging Homophobe too! Aren't there any gays in China for you to attack? Just think- you could be out committing a self absorbed satisfying Hate crime right now- instead of just making a fool of yourself on here.
I am sick of the racist talk myself--Preston ALWAYS makes it about race.. Why?? Because he is a racist.. I dont give a crap waht color Stewart is.. I just asked when I started why HE got chosen by ESPN for the pic and not a rider who is actually winning.. Its all I asked.. And of course a Stewtard attacked, and Preston makes it racial of course, because he is a racist..
@Preston--dont even pretend to know anything about me. because you dont..but I know a few things about you--racist..
There is only ONE REASON why James Stewart was featured in that magazine, and WE ALL KNOW WHAT THAT ONE REASON IS. Look at the pathetic state of affairs. He sucks because HE DOESN'T HAVE TO EVEN TRY. The world is handed to him on a silver platter because of THAT ONE REASON. And some of us wonder why he's so lazy, and why Aldon Baker couldn't get his ass out of bed to train. James Stewart is always leaning on that CRUTCH, which is why he is sorry as hell, useless as a slick on a supercross bike, and lazier than an entitlement-coddled public assistance homie. THAT ONE REASON is why he gets far more credit than he deserves, where others surpass him at every turn and get JACK SQUAT. He knows he's LIVING A LIE.
All the whiners whining about Stewart are just miserable people, it is a known fact.
There is absolutely NO comparison of JS to MC, NONE, ZIP, ZERO!! M
@Rick-- I will say this.. I do not have a "chip" about Stewart.. What I have a chip about is all the press he gets that more recent champions who have done more than him the last 3 years DO NOT get.. Those guys worked as harder and many alot harder than him and dont get it for some reason.. I have a chip on the fact that the last 3 weeks even Racer X keeps saying what Stewart can do or should be able to do to get wins and Dungey never got even a mention, and those things, that gets me ... But what gets me even worse is if I mention it or complain, then a racist like Preston calls me a racist and a hater or starts name calling and telling me to "get my head out of my as$" or something hatefull like that because I dont love his boy..That gets me also.. I have nothing personnal against Stewart, or could care less about his race.. I never liked the sprinkler dances and worm dances on the track.. I think that is classless and showboat. I loved him as a 125 kid just seeing how fast he could ring out the 125.. what happend to that smiling kid??.. But his so-called "fans" who get all Stewtard if you even question anything.. I cant stand..
@Rick-- I disagree, Rv and Dungey are just as interesting to me, what you said is just opinion..I like them because of their work ethic and dedication.. I dont think they are boring at all.. And RV hasnt had kids at his house riding?? What was Adam Ciancirullo doing there?? He trained and rode there all year, RV is dedicated and is training, not playing, it is his personality.. But its not boring to me,, He has the most demanding trainer in the business.. Stewart didnt have time for that stuff either, until he fired that same trainer.... He hasnt won since..
@Rick, if a goofy, "Aw shucks" grin equates to personality, he's got it in spades.
@rickamatuzio: Well put, very well put.
@therealmofo: I don't think people trying to defend Stewart should be so quick to point the racist finger either. Over the years on these boards, there have been some truly racist comments by some of the harshest Stewart-bashers. But that label shouldn't get tossed around lightly.
And then there is Scrub-This. What a sad and deranged way of viewing the world: All teapartiers are hardworking makers; all liberals are good for nothing takers; all homosexuals dance lewdly in the street; if you hate Stewart you must have a high IQ; if you like Stewart you must have a low IQ. A broken clock is right twice a day. Scrub-This, not so much, but clearly broken just the same.
@ rick....All the giving back JS does started when he got sentenced to community service, starting with his Texas am nat. Just saying...regardless it's good to have a rider involved with the moto community whether it was started by force or not.
Very well put! The amount of angst among the "haters" is from constantly being bombarded with JS7 articles. If he wins....a article. if he loses....a article, if he is????.... a article. Many of his fans take it very personal and slam everyone that does not sing his praises. Its not that we (well, most of us) hate Stewart, it is just that we don't think the riders who deserve the credit get there dues, and he doesn't even have to try to get the press. Its a shame, cause the detractors as well as his supporters contribute to the media circus by making his threads the longest of any subject matter on this site.
@Rick--Stewart IS NOT the pinnacle of the sport, and his lines arent any longer than Dungeys or RV's. Actually the longest line I saw last time was K-Dubs..
And Stewart always had a trainer in the 450's, It was Johnny O'Mara..
And his salary isnt the highest, Actually Kawasaki signed RV1 when he came up instead of Stewart.. Kawasaki said they had a decision to make and went with RV instead.. I think it was a great choice..
@lastly.. RV's ACL was completely torn, Stewarts ACL has a tear, its not completely torn--he basically said that when he said it would be healed by the end of supercross.. TORN ACL's dont heal, they require surgery--like RV's did..
@Rick--wrong again, the last time I checked just a month ago on a site that shows the value of sports stars and celebrities.. Stewart was worth 18 million total.. Hell RC was worth over 22 million, Chad Reed total worth was 60 million.. So what do you say now??
And Stewart himself said his knee would heal during the season, so why do you think it is torn completely??? Excuse because he isnt winning?? Stewart said it would heal, THAT MEANS IT ISNT TORN completely.. You even tell Stewart himself he is wrong! good lord!!!!
@Rick-- I hate to say it, but he gets alot of his exposuer because of his color--especially the mainstream media, its true and you and I both know it..But he IS NOT worth what you say or think, I saw it myself..
@Rick--just looked again, the site is "celebrity net worth" James Stewart worth 18 million...hate to break your little heart..LOL
Chad Reed--60 million--so maybe Reed is the pinnacle of our sport...our sport isnt limited to star power in the USA, its worldwide.
Ricky Carmichael--25 million--maybe RC is still the pinnacle in the USA, he has even more money than Stewart...
How can anyone actually like Stewart? I don't get it.

As the Dispatch article "Stopping the decay" in Sunday's paper pointed out, dental care is the top unmet health need in Ohio, particularly for children and low-income adults. Indeed, too many Ohioans in our most-rural counties cannot find dental care because there are not enough, if any, dentists. Too few dentists take Medicaid patients, and wait times at safety-net clinics may be months long, which delays routine and emergency services to low-income, uninsured patients.
One solution that was not mentioned in the article is to modernize our dental work force by expanding the dental team, as is being done in medicine.
The American Association of Public Health Dentistry supports training new dental practitioners to perform basic services like filling cavities and pulling primary teeth.
We can use this cost-effective, successful model to train competent providers in areas with highest need far more quickly and cheaply than it would be to get more dentists into these underserved areas.
While raising Medicaid-reimbursement rates and improving loan-repayment programs for dentists are part of the solution, Ohio's leaders can act now to expand the dental team to provide more dental care.
Mid-level providers have worked to expand access to health care, and we can use the same model to improve access to oral health-care services too. We have been failing to meet the most basic dental care needs. We have fallen behind. We need action now.

With all the recent interest in locally grown, farm-fresh and organic foods, it's no wonder the number of U.S. farmers markets has more than tripled in the past 15 years. There are now more than 7,175 across the country, according to the Agriculture Department.
Buying local means products are picked at peak ripeness, providing the top freshness, flavor and nutrients. The foods are transported fewer miles and are coming directly from the people who grow them. And you can feel good about supporting your local economy and strengthening the local food system.
Now is the time to get exploring, to discover new produce and fresh or potted herbs that your supermarket might not feature.
Feeling inspired? The accompanying salad recipe makes use of seasonal greens including peppery arugula and watercress, buttery bibb lettuce and velvety mache (also known as lamb's lettuce). Spinach is also in season starting in April and works well with this salad. Kale is available starting in May.
This salad gets a sweet and earthy flavor boost from another farmers market favorite: beets, a nutrition powerhouse. Beets are full of phytonutrients, iron, fiber and folate. They are most often found in the deep purple variety, but farmers markets might also carry golden yellow, pink or white varieties. It is best to purchase smaller beets, as they are more tender and sweeter -- one to 1 1/2 inches is the ideal diameter. You want the
In addition to salad greens and beets, this recipe features an herb dressing loaded with dill and oniony chives. Nothing flavors a dish better than fresh herbs, which boost flavor and add depth to dishes without overdoing sodium, sugar and fat. Plus, many herbs contain disease-fighting antioxidants. To prevent spoiling, make sure they are dry when you store them in the fridge. Wrap them in a dry paper towel and they'll last up to a week.
And one last bonus: The olive oil from the dressing not only ties all those herbs together but also helps your body absorb those nutrients and feel more satisfied.
Get Ready for the Market
Proper preparation can help make a good experience great. Follow these guidelines to get the most out of your farmers market:
--Bring reusable, clean bags to carry your goodies home. Use separate bags for raw and cooked foods.
--Bring storage containers for delicate produce such as berries and cherry tomatoes that might otherwise get crushed when combined with other products.
--Arrive early in the day before the crowds for the best selection. That perfectly plump tomato will be the first to go. However, if you do go toward the end of the day, you might get some good deals.
--Bring cash in small bills with a bag for change.
--Go in with an open mind. My first experience with garlic scapes was because one of the vendors pointed it out to me and said you could make an amazing pesto out of the twisty, curly plant. Garlic scapes are now something I very much look forward to and can't find anywhere but at the market.
--Take the time to scope out the entire market, as different farmers offer different selections and prices of the same items. And be sure to ask the farmers how long produce will stay fresh to make sure you don't overbuy. They also usually can provide good storage tips.

Farmers Market Salad With Herbed Vinaigrette
2 servings
Don't worry too much about the measurements of the produce in this recipe; have fun experimenting with different proportions that are to your liking. Other seasonal produce that works well with this salad: sprouts, carrots, mushrooms, kale, spinach and any kind of onion.
MAKE AHEAD: The beets can be roasted, cooled, peeled and refrigerated a day or two in advance. The vinaigrette can be refrigerated a day or two in advance. Bring to room temperature before using.
For the salad
4 small red and/or golden beets (unpeeled; about 12 to 14 ounces total)
1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
Sea salt
2 cups packed arugula, rinsed and dried
1 cup watercress, rinsed and dried
1 cup mache, rinsed and dried
6 to 8 radishes, cut into thin rounds
1/4 medium red onion, cut into thin slices
8 bibb lettuce leaves, rinsed and dried
Flesh of 1/4 ripe avocado, cut into small chunks, for garnish (optional)
1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese, for garnish (optional)
2 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted, for garnish (optional; see NOTE)
For the vinaigrette
1/2 teaspoon honey or light agave nectar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup packed fresh dill
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1 large clove garlic
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/8 teaspoon sea salt, or more as needed
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or more as needed
For the salad: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Combine the beets, oil and sea salt to taste in a glass baking dish; toss to coat evenly. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and roast for 35 to 40 minutes or until tender when pierced with a knife. Cool completely, then trim the beet ends; use a paper towel to slip off the skins (and discard them). Cut the beets into thin rounds and place in a stain-proof bowl.
Combine the arugula, watercress, mache, radish slices and red onion in a mixing bowl.
For the vinaigrette: Combine the honey or agave nectar, lemon juice, dill, chives and garlic in a blender or mini food processor. Pulse to combine. With the motor running, add the oil in a slow, steady stream to form an emulsified vinaigrette. Season with sea salt and pepper.
Add about 3 tablespoons of vinaigrette to the bowl of greens; toss to coat evenly. Taste, and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Arrange the lettuce leaves on a platter so they are fairly flat. Top with the dressed salad greens, beets and some or all of the optional garnishes: avocado chunks, goat cheese and pine nuts.
Drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette just before serving.
NOTE: Toast pine nuts in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat, shaking the pan occasionally to prevent burning, until the nuts are golden brown and fragrant.

Members of the Action 4 News team worked together to bring you this report.
Thousands are expected to play the Mega Millions lottery on Tuesday in hopes of cashing in on one of the largest jackpots in the game's history.
The jackpot for the multi-state lottery went from $242 million to $290 million dollars after nobody won the drawing on New Year's Eve.
Lottery officials said the jackpot jumped to $330 million dollars after even more people bought tickets on Monday morning.
Several Rio Grande Valley residents scrambled to buy their tickets on Monday in hopes of winning.
Action 4 News spokes to several people at the Town & Country 7-11 Store off North 10th Street in McAllen where many go to play the lottery
They said they are hoping to win.
The game is drawn on Tuesdays and Fridays but has now gone 15 drawings or more than seven weeks without a winner.
Mega Millions is played in 41 states and the District of Columbia.
Winners must match five numbers and a sixth "Mega Ball" to win the full amount.
Paying $1 dollar extra allows players to pick a Megaplier of 2, 3 or 4 can double, triple or quadruple their non-jackpot winnings.
The odds of winning the jackpot are approximately 1 in 176 million while the odds of winning any of the Mega Millions prizes are approximately 1 in 40.

Issues of the Heart
Circumcision has value if you observe the law, but if you break the law, you have become as though you had not been circumcised. So then, if those who are not circumcised keep the law's requirements, will they not be regarded as though they were circumcised? The one who is not circumcised physically and yet obeys the law will condemn you who, even though you have the written code and circumcision, are a lawbreaker.
A person is not a Jew who is one only outwardly, nor is circumcision merely outward and physical. No, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a person's praise is not from other people, but from God. Romans 2:25-29
Circumcision, though a physical act, was not really about the physical, was it? It was an act of the heart. In Genesis 17, God required Abraham to circumcise all male children as a covenant act between God and what we now call the Jewish people. It was but one sign to them that they are truly different than their non-Jewish neighbors. And Paul noted that the outward act was to represent the inward "circumcision of the heart." It was again a "setting apart."
As we apply the verses to our lives, we too are to live lives that are set apart and different from those around us. Not weird, but different. Our habits will be different. Our speech will be different. Our attitudes toward authority will be different. Our actions will be different.
We have been transformed into "a new creation; old things have passed away; new things have come" 2 Corinthians 5:17

Great points. Focusing on the data is becoming ever more important with the traditional security perimeter (healthcare organization firewalls etc) blurring with mobile health, cloud computing and other trends. Compounding this challenge are BYOD, personal apps and other tools empowering healthcare workers with new alternatives and workarounds to get their job done, and inadvertantly further dispersing the healthcare data. Discovering where the data is using tools such as DLP (Data Loss Prevention) is becoming a critical first step. With an accurate and up to date data inventory in hand healthcare organizations can identify unsecured PHI before a potential breach occurs, and take preventative action such as cleanup, encryption, or moving the unsecured data somewhere more secure. Also several good points about risk assessments in the interview with David Finn. Risk assessments can identify and prioritize risks, and (beyond regulatory compliance) can serve as a valuable tool to focus limited dollars for privacy and security to where they reduce the most business risk. Given all the locations of PHI and the myriad of possible ways it can be compromised, many healthcare organizations find that the number of hypothetical risks is daunting. In this case a useful best practice is to assign risks threat sources and use the threat source motivations, capabilities, avenues of attack etc to triage the real risks from the hypothetical risks. This enables healthcare organizations to focus those limited resources where they really count. More on this in another blog I did, and attached whitepaper.
