Work detailsCrime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky (1866)
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. Rashkolnikov commits the ultimate crime, murder, not in a fit of passion, but with a detailed plan to kill a pawnbroker for her wealth. He of course is able to rationalize his actions because his victim takes advantage of the poor and destitute and he would use the money for good causes. Purely based on actions, Rashkolnikov sounds like the scum of the earth, but reading this book, you discover that he is not without morals or principles, or without a huge sense of guilt. This book is powerful, told in Rashkolnikov's voice and you feel his sense of foreboding and guilt as the police come closer and closer to solving the crime. Definitely one of those classic books that everyone should read. ***the following review may contain spoilers but really minor to the whole. Cirme and Punishment is called a masterpiece of Russian and world literature. The main character is a Raskolnikov, a young, intellect, a student who is perhaps ill or very depressed, no longer going to school, no longer earning any money. He is pondering something that causes him great stress. Then we find that he plans to murder, to murder a 'principle'. Raskolnikov has a theory and he murders to prove his theory. Then the next several pages deal with the torment that Raskolnikov experiences after the act. Raskolnikov is also a man of noble character in spite of the act of murder. Raskolnikov does not consider his act of murder a crime or feel any guilt but the murder does leave him isolated. He is alone even though he wanders the streets of St. Petersburg and associates with a variety of other characters in the story. The author examines the alienation from the rest of humanity. His friends make every effort to help him but he rejects them and begs to be left alone. The reader sees all the other characters through the delirium of Raskolnifov. There is suspense in this novel. First the suspense to the reader about what is causing Raskolnikov such distress and then once we know, it is will he do it and why. The reader doesn't find out fully until much later in the story. Once the murder is completed which is early on, then the suspense is what will happen now, will he be caught or perhaps he will commit suicide or maybe he will get by. Raskolnikov is an "egnigmatic hero" and we only find out about him slowly as we read through the six parts of the story. Only the epilogue truly reveals the essential characteristics of Raskolnifov's character. The novel stands as the great antecedent to the twentieth-century literature of alienation represented in figures such as Camus and Beckett. Water and stale bread is more than I deserve. I have been practicing saying "Fyodor Dostoyevsky" so it rolls off my tongue making me sound very cultured. I told my friend I had just finished reading "Crime and Punishment", she asked if it was by Jane Austen (in her defense I read Jane Austen twice a year, and she had kids jumping all over her as I told her about the book). I said "No, it's by Fyodor Dostoyesvky" and then felt quite smug that I managed to get the name out without tripping over any syllables!! It helped that I listened to the audio book (I have an audio book on the go, I listen to them in bed while I settle my children, or while I am doing the ironing, or sewing, or baking because the book got so good I listened every chance I got). About a third of the way through I transferred a copy to my husband's phone so he could listen on the way to work, I was blown away by the book and needed him to listen so that I could discuss it with him. The rest of this review will probably contain some spoilers, but it won't spoil the book, this book is about the writing and the pyschological insite, rather than simply the plot. The first part of the book left me rather shaken. The main character did something rather heinous, but during the whole lead up to the act it was as if he wasn't going to do it, I mean he was thinking about how he didn't think he would do it, how he couldn't believe that he was considering doing it, that it was a funny thought that he might to it. He didn't seem particularly evil and yet it murdered a woman in cold blood. I was shaken. I sat there thinking about how his actions seemed so innocent to himself, up until he commited the murder. I thought about all the times I had fleeting thoughts of doing a heinous thing ie driving a car off a bridge or one of those scary thoughts that occasional pops into your head and makes you think "what the fuck I don't want a thought like that". Yet here is this guy having those thoughts and slowing making plans to actually commit the act all the while not actually believing that he has an intention of going through with it. I finish the first part of the book and wondered if I do would be capable of murder. I mean this guy murdered, how was he any different to me? (Thankfully by the end o the book I could see how different we were, what a relief). I needed my husband to read the book so I could talk to him about how exasperating Raskolnikov, the main character, was. Basically he kills a woman for money, extensibly so he can set himself up with a good education and fulfill his destiny. Yet up until this act he had given up university and spent his days laying miserably on the couch. His mother and sister where scraping every penny together and sending it to him, but he would waste it or give it away and just continue to be depressed and doing nothing. His friend is the contrast, his friend works hard doing this and that scrapping money together in order to finish university. He even offers a job to Raskolnikov who refuses it, thinking to himself that it is too little money and not worth the effort. Money is continually coming to Raskolnikov and we start to see that if he had only got off his ass then he could have made enough money to pay his own way through university... this shit me off. The book ended with Raskolnikov realising that he loved the girl that had followed him (I won't give away who she is). But this is what I hate, at the moment that he realises that he loves her he realises that she is not good enough for him. He has an ephinany about life and her and awakes from his depression ready to begin life anew, but he looks at this woman who has been looking after him and helping him, and ponders how she isn't good enough for him because she hasn't had the same ephinany that he just had. I though "Fuck you Raskolnikov, she didn't need the ephinany because she was already living it!!". I mean Raskolnikov is an asshole and won't talk to anybody or be friendly. Yet the girl is friends with everybody, everybody likes her, she is alive and he isn't. So when he misses her, realises that he loves her, and is suddenly awakened and alive again... he looks at her and thinks she isn't smart enough, blah blah blah. I loved how the book highlighted all sorts of crimes and awful people and we got to see how and why we considered one act a crime and yet another wasn't. Why did we, the reader, accept the murder of the old woman, yet it was the murder of the young woman that horrified us that most. Why did we cheer for Doonya as she pointed the gun at her attacker etc. I love Russian doorstoppers, I didn't realise how much until I finished this book. Two of the most amazing books I have read are Russian doorstoppers (Anna Karenina and Crime and Punishment), I am of to start reading Crime and Punishment now. I find the summary of the story that people give when they talk about the book interesting, but the prose itself? Not at all. I admit that the constant vacillation between telling and not telling secrets/internal life does reflect humanity (hence the two stars), but stylistically this book was tedious. Considering the number of people who hold this book dear, the trouble may have merely been with this particular translation. Either way, though, I'm left baffled that this novel has made the impact it has, especially given the heavy-handed connection between Raskolnikov's start toward sanity/return to humanity and his finding of Christianity.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0553211757, Mass Market Paperback)A desperate young man plans the perfect crime -- the murder of a despicable pawnbroker, an old women no one loves and no one will mourn. Is it not just, he reasons, for a man of genius to commit such a crime, to transgress moral law -- if it will ultimately benefit humanity? So begins one of the greatest novels ever written: a powerful psychological study, a terrifying murder mystery, a fascinating detective thriller infused with philosophical, religious and social commentary. Raskolnikov, an impoverished student living in a garret in the gloomy slums of St. Petersburg, carries out his grotesque scheme and plunges into a hell of persecution, madness and terror. Crime And Punishment takes the reader on a journey into the darkest recesses of the criminal and depraved mind, and exposes the soul of a man possessed by both good and evil ... a man who cannot escape his own conscience.(retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:22:02 -0400) Determined to overreach his humanity and assert his untrammeled individual will, Raskolnikov, and impoverished student living in the St. Petersburg of the Tsars, commits an act of murder and theft and sets into motion a story which, for its excruciating suspense, its atmospheric vividness, and its profundity of characterization and vision, is almost unequaled in the literatures of the world.… (more) (summary from another edition) |

Reality TV is nothing new. Since the dawn of television, there have always been unscripted formats and game shows of one kind or another. However, the current incarnation of reality programming -- shows such as "Survivor," "The Bachelor," and "Fear Factor" -- may be the most durable and successful shows in the history of reality programming. What's more, reality TV is the most innovative area of current programming, far more creative than sitcoms, hour-long dramas, sports, news or movies and miniseries. In fact, it may be helpful to think of current reality shows as game shows or "event programming" much like the highly touted TV movies of the 1970s and '80s.
I learned all this and more when I attended a recent panel at The Museum of Television and Radio in Beverly Hills called, "Keeping it Real: The Past, Present and Future of Reality Television."

This was a top rate cast. The show was fantastic. I would recommend seeing any show at this theater. We walked to the theater. So convenient.
This was a top rate cast. The show was fantastic. I would recommend seeing any show at this theater. We walked to the theater. So convenient.
We saw the Sunday matinee of BARK. It was wonderful. We loved the theatre and the staff. Would definately go back
We went to BARK the Musical last weekend and it was fantastic. We have been to theatres in San Francisco, New York and Los Angeles and really liked the acoustics at ACT and the feeling of intimacy. The stage production was superb and the whole cast was excellent. We are coming back!
Great talent and well know titles. The theatre is too big- just right. It is VERY conveniently located
Went to Bark the Musical and loved it. It is a wonderful place for community theatre and they have a great season coming up this year. They have beer and snacks at intermission, and and the theatre always seems to be full! I have attended many other events and plays there!
Our first time at ACT and we'll definitely return. Enjoyed the performance and the whole experience. Not a bad seat in the house. Good acoustics. Friendly staff. Parking's a bit of a challenge so leave a few extra minutes early. Can't wait for the next show!
Not sure what I was going to think, being from NYC and a theater snob.. but I was pleasantly surprised by the talent in this area. Definately worth a try if you haven't done so already.
I love the theatre! A non-professional theatre with amazing talent. The quality of the actors and plays have jumped two fold since 5 years ago. I have seen Hairsray and Oliver, both amazing shows. The prices are cheaper then other area theatres for better quality!
Small venue, could see and "feel" all the action. Great local actors, a must see when in town or calling all locals.
Seat in the middle, you can see it all from there. The Best place to see a show on stage. They have plays for kids to adults, year around.

A Trachtenverein is an association of people who look after the traditions of the region. That includes that they have traditional costumes which they wear on various occasions, make traditional music and celebrate old traditional festivals and feasts. Bad Tölz still has three of those associations and also one Schützenkompanie. This is an association of people who shot with all kinds of guns and airguns. In Bavaria those Schützenkompanien can be traced back to the 16th century when men had to defend catholic Bavaria against the Swedish army. Today everybody can join.
Trachtenvereine and Schützenkompanien do a lot to preserve traditions. They really live traditions on religious and traditional secular festivals and, what is more, they also introduce our traditions and customs to guests on the so-called Heimatabend.

Forecast predicts wet spring for Midwest
Federal officials say odds favor a wetter-than-normal spring over the Great Lakes region.By: By Chuck Quirmbach, Wisconsin Public Radio, Superior Telegram
Federal officials say odds favor a wetter-than-normal spring over the Great Lakes region.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has just issued its weather outlook for the next three months. The NOAA says drought will continue or expand in the west and south, but there is a good chance for more precipitation in the upper Midwest.
Ed O'Lenic of NOAA's Climate Prediction Center says the calculations are based on looking at data from 1981 through 2010 and figuring out the 10 wettest, 10 driest and "normal" years. He says typically there is a 33 percent chance the next year will be wetter.
"Over part of the Great Lakes, the probabilities reach around the mid-40s — 40 percent — which is about 10 percent higher than simply average conditions," he said.
O'Lenic says factors such as current precipitation patterns, Pacific Ocean temperatures and consensus among climate forecast models push the precipitation odds higher for the Great Lakes region this spring. The NOAA spring forecast also says the melting of late season snow may cause minor to moderate flooding in southern Wisconsin.

Focus on monitoring and controlling the generation of energy and its impact on the environment towards a self- sustainable earth. The E2 conference is conceived to be an interdisciplinary forum that will bring together people from industry, university and government. This will allow researchers, industry and government to share their needs in regard to the economics, legal requirements, and permitting issues that surround energy extraction and production with those who may be able to bring innovative optical solutions to bear on those issues. In order to develop a sustainable energy future, it is necessary to consider both the production of energy and the impact of production on the environment. This conference focuses on optical technologies that address environmental impacts of energy production management. Conference topics span all forms of energy production and energy distribution such as wind, solar, fossil fuels and cogeneration techniques in addition to technologies which increase energy efficiency.

Rewind with Guy Cooper
Wednesday, November 21, 2012 | 1:30 PMThere will never be another racer quite like Guy "Airtime" Cooper. The 1990 AMA 125 National Motocross Champion was known for his wide-open riding style and massive jumps, as well as his laid back, friendly Oklahoma demeanor. This year, Guy turned 50, and we caught up to him for this edition of Rewind.
Racer X: You earned the nickname Airtime. How did you become so comfortable jumping in the first place?
Guy Cooper: That really all started on bicycles. At 13, I weighed about a 100lbs, so I was small for my age and had gotten into BMX. I loved to jump my bike. I remember using a door for a ramp, held up with concrete blocks and I jumped over this chain link fence around the yard. Next we started adding bicycles and I would jump those, then Mark Hall put his motorcycle beside the bikes and I jumped that. Well, about that time my dad came out, saw what I was doing and wanted to get a picture, so he went in and got his camera. The only thing that came out on that picture was the bottom of my bike's tires! Dad didn't realize how far over the fence I was getting. Afterwards, he kind of growled, as he was telling me I really needed to be wearing a helmet when I did that kind of stuff. Over the next couple days, my friends and I made the ramp better by putting a piece of ply wood over the door to make the transition smoother. The mechanics the who lived next door were having a few beers, hooting and hollering, they said they would turn the ramp around where we were pedaling with the wind. I also went from an 18 to a 16 tooth sprocket for even more speed. Dad saw me and told me I needed to be wearing my helmet! I just blew that off and went on. I saw the ramp set up, so I went to a gas station about a block away, turned around and tore down the side walk I went.
With the wind behind me, I began to gain speed as made my way to the ramp, I felt like I was flying, I was thinking, this was going to be such an awesome jump! What I didn't know was, when they moved the ramp around they made it stupid steep, so here I was, hauling towards the ramp and dad happens to come out and see me, helmet less, approaching the ramp. Well, I hit the ramp and the next thing I see when I look down is the tops of these 15 foot trees that the city of Stillwater had planted next to the side walks! I was thinking, 'I am over 20 feet up in the air!' When I landed, my BMX forks just snapped off. It slammed me face first into the hard packed grass, which bloodied my face. I was sore but unhurt, and with every one around I just kind of laughed it off, I could not let on I was hurt with dad there, after he told me I needed a helmet.

Even after that, jumping never scared me, the only limitation was the bike breaking, and that carried over to when I started racing motocross. The experience I had with landing the back side of jumps in BMX really helped me racing, as the generation of riders before me would over jump a double and land out on flat ground, where I knew how to drop the front end and down side the landing. Jumping just came very natural to me, so usually I was one of the first guys to jump something at a track because it did not scare me. I was given the name "Airtime" while still here racing the expert class in Oklahoma. I always tried to live up to it!
You almost won the 1987 LA Coliseum Supercross race, and that really brought you into the spotlight. Tell us a little about that race.
That was an awesome night, as I have said many times before, that second felt like a first. I was so happy that night, I led a lot of laps, I made the podium and I made a nice sized pay check that would help to keep me racing, but looking back I really do wish I would have won that one, it just was not meant to be. I found out later that a lot of little things happened that evening. During intermission the team managers got together with the AMA and told them the whoops had only one line through them, so while we were back in the pits, they took shovels and made a line through the left side of the whoops. Most of us didn't know this, so we kept using the right side of he whoops. When you watch the race, Rick Johnson was gaining a second or so and passing people by using that line. Also, they had this little jump-on-turn-jump-off thing that was marked by a hay bale. During practice the hay bale got blown out and every one was jumping straight off. The AMA officials told us that anyone got caught straightening that out would be penalized. Well again, during the race the hay bale was blown out. With me leading, I remembered what the official had said, so each lap I would slow down and jump-on-turn-jump-off. But RJ would not slow down, he would jump to the inside and straighten out the corner and gain or second or two. It was a great race that helped make RJ's legend larger, but it was one, I definitely could have won. At the time I thought I would eventually win one, but I just never did. Such is racing.
You almost won several, is there another that sticks out?
The San Jose Supercross in '91. Usually my starts were not that great and I had to work to get to the front, and when I did, I was spent, as I was not in the greatest of shape. But San Jose was different. I actually got a good start, right behind Jeff Matiasevich and instead of going all crazy, I just stayed calm and watched his lines. I picked out the spot for a pass. I remember coming around, seeing the white flag, thinking I will pass him. But I got a better drive than him going into the whoops, so that's where I ended up passing him, not where I planned it. After the whoops there was a left hand corner, as I entered it I took it a little easier than normal not wanting to wash out the front end because I knew I had him covered speed wise on the rest of the track. Then, boom, Matiasevich came in way too hard, slammed into me and took us both out. I could not believe it, he was going so fast, he had no chance of making he corner. I guess he thought he was going to hit me and use me as a berm! Well, he finished sixth and I got eighth. Doug Dubach won his first and only supercross instead of me. I never really understood Jeff. We got along, he was a good kid, then we would be out having dinner and he would drop his drink, cuss, and act like a fool. I would ask him why he did that, and he would laugh and say, "That's what they pay me for!"

Do you keep up with the sport today and what do you think of it?
I really thought I would stay in the industry and follow it closer than I do. I watch it whenever I can, but it has changed so much over the years. In my day the outdoors tracks were less maintained. We rode in a lot of dust, on one hard packed line, and if you got off of it you were in 6-10 inches of silt. Today they keep it watered and manicured more. I think the watering makes the track much safer than the old days and better for the fans, but letting it get rougher would be a good thing, especially with the bikes we have today. The suspension they have today is great, and really the power of the bikes is too much. If it were up to me I would say they need a 300cc or 350cc limit on the four strokes. It would slow it down and make the racing closer and better for the fans. At the speeds they go now I can see why they don't bang bars much any more. In supercross, they need to make the tracks less technical, which would allow for closer racing, which is what the fans want to see. It would also give the underdog a chance to shine once and awhile. The fans like that kind of stuff, I know some riders like the technical things to separate the riders, but in the end, the best guys will still win. I also think they need to bring back a 2-stroke class, because it's cheaper. All they have to do is to change just a couple rules and it would entice the manufactures into making them again, helping to expand the sport even more.
Vet Nationals or Vintage Races, which do you prefer?
I really enjoy the Vintage Races more. The new bikes are so easy to ride, I feel like I can go too fast. They turn so well, I actually find myself cutting my lines too short. I do have a '09 KTM300 and it is a great bike, I love it, but there is something about hopping on a '74 Penton and getting the most you can out of it. This past year I raced the Unadilla Rewind, which was blast, seeing Stanton and everyone again brought back a lot of memories. I also raced Diamond Don's Vintage Race, where I won all ten motos I entered. It is such a laid back atmosphere, the camaraderie and bench racing make it so much fun.
What was the best part of being a pro racer? And the worst part?
I loved every minute of it. I got the chance to go overseas, that was the best part for me. Doing those supercross races over there, I got to see a lot of countries and make some pretty good money. The worst part is easy: the airplanes were full of smoke! Back then even in the non-smoking seats you were still in a cloud of smoke. That part was miserable for me.
You rode Honda so long. Was it tough when they let you go in '89?
I had a good idea it was going to happen. They had told me that if they signed Bayle, they probably would not room for me in the budget. When they did sign him, I knew I needed to find another ride. Yamaha was upset with me because we almost had a deal the year before and I backed out to stay on Honda. I called Kawasaki and they told me they would like to have me, but the team was full. So I called Pat Alexander with Suzuki. They offered a one-year deal, it was less than I made at Honda, but it was better, as they paid for all my travel expenses, where at Honda I had to pay those out of my pocket. It worked out well because we won the 125 National Championship that year. Bob Hannah told me I had some negotiating power with that #1 plate and to get a healthy raise for the next contract. Negotiations were not going well, I did not like their first offer, but Bob said to hang in there, he would talk to them. Well, I ended up settling for what would be my biggest contract, $70,000. I thought I should get at least $100,000 since some of the kids right out of the amateurs ranks were getting paid that much, yet they had not done anything to deserve that and I had won them a championship. I found out later the head of Suzuki did not want to pay me because he said I was too old and would not win any more.

[Laughs] Well it's pretty good. I got a daughter, Katelyn, who will be seven next week. It would have been good for me to have had kids early. It's amazing how much better it makes me as a person. She has taught me to be able to express myself and communicate better. I know it's still broken English, I'm still an "Okie" but I am better. As a young kid I had my blinders on, riding motorcycles was my life and I really did not get out and experience a lot.
Okay, what is your fondest racing memory?
Wow, that's a tough one, as there have been so many. I had a great career that I am very proud of, I never left anything on the table. If I went down hard and was able to get back up, I was still going to finishing that moto, regardless of which way my thumb may have been pointing. But out of all I have accomplished professionally, my fondest race memory is from a race at Interstate Raceway back before I ever went pro. Trey Jorski, Clay Hoenshell, Dennis Daft and I were going at it in the expert class. Dennis and I had gotten out front and we were going wide open down the straight, side by side, I was waiting for him to shut off and he was waiting for me to shut off. Finally, I knew I had to let off and brake, and Dennis let off at exactly the same time! We were bar-to-bar and neither could turn without taking the other out, so we were looking at each other, almost laughing under our helmets, because we were having so much fun racing motorcycles. Yeah, that was the best!

The Conversation
I'm not sure of the race or year, probably 1990 or 1991 but him, Matasevich, Bradshaw, and I think Johny 'O went at it for all 20 laps. Bradshaw put an elobow in Coopers neck coming out of a turn into the whoops. That was it. I was so bummed. I loved Airtime and the O'Show ride. Fun memories. Thanks Guy Cooper!
Just second thought. I think some of his problem was the Suzuki 250's really weren't that great in the early 90's. The 125's were amazing with a buttery clutch, but the 250's just missed the mark for some reason. Just my opinion.
Awesome article, i like that last story. gave me a good chuckle and a smile.
Brings back memories with me and my brother racing together.
I love Airtime, I never got to see him ride in his prime. The only chance I got to see him ride was Washougal 2002 when he went 16-26 for 19th overall, while he whipped it over the Chuck Sun every single lap of both motos
WOW! Does anyone recognize who Bill Disney is? Unless I am mistaken, and I am sure I'm not, that would be non other than our own BD25! I met him face to face at Spring Creek and realized he had some fine writting skills, and he lives in Oklahoma, so I'm thinking he told me he knew Guy Cooper. Anyway, if any of you recall, I posted a couple times that DC should have him writing for them and then today, I FIND THIS! BD, drop a line and let me know this isn't some huge coincidence and I didn't imagine it! I need to get back to work, so I'll need to read this arcticle later. Cool.
The thing is the 250 class is going just as fast as the 450s. Why blame the 450s?250 class is more about your bike than 450. If you don't have the money and/ or connections in the 250 class you are not going to get a good start and be out front. Look who has been dominationgthat class and what kind of bikes they have. Lots of locals race the 450 class because they have a better chance there with basically a stocker. Look what Mike alessi did this year. If you drop the 450s to 350 why not drop the 250s to 150.
Guy Cooper is the epitome of a racer and is/was an absolute asset to the sport. It's incredibly disappointing that people like him weren't able to make a better living doing it, but I suppose that's partially due to the era (and obviously the pessimistic and stingy bean counters at Suzuki). It's equally disappointing that he's not working directly in the industry right now. That die hard commitment would be an excellent attribute to share with any team and Roger DeCoster, at 68, proves that 50 is nowhere near 'too old' to have incredible value in the industry. At the minimum, someone needs to write a book about Cooper's career, there are so many great stories and this article is only a fraction of a sliver!
Real nice guy. Last photo McGrath #17 Antunez #22?
Ya, that's Buddy on Peak Honda.
Guy is right I just said something about this . 2 strokes need to be allowed, 250cc class for the lites both bikes, and the big bikes figure out if you keep it 450 or lower it , bigger 2 stroke or smaller 4 stroke in the 450 class.
Please don't hate us, Guy also mentioned changing the 250 to 150, just did not get that in...
That didn't even talk about his quite successful off-road riding career, or when he came back at age 40 and got a bunch of great starts on the KTM "850", as RC would refer to it as. He was just a guy that loves to ride and to compete. The fact that the only bad thing he could think of about racing pro was smoky airplane rides says a lot. Not too many guys with his attitude anymore, that's for sure.
????? ALL the crazy photos of Cooper and the main photo is an RM / X off road event ???? Guy Cooper , always one of my favorites , one the all time hard chargers for sure ....and areial wizards of his era .....thank you for all the memories Guy !!!!!!
@Please don't hate us, If that is Antunez on the #22 bike then who is #17. Is that McGraths rookie Team Peak #? He was on a privateer Kawasaki KX125 #125 the year before if I am correct. Jeremy was the last of his close friends to get a ride.
brian Swink? #17?
@Bucky394 - agreed, BD25 makes another excellent contribution, this time with an article rather than in the comments section
@BD25 - Great interview. Keep 'em coming.
I had the opportunity to watch Guy ride at his peak on a number of occasions at Unadilla, Broome, and Lake Sugartree. One year at Sugartree ('89 or '90) I remember being amazed as I watched him hit an uphill step-up with the back-side of the jump being a downhill.
I was really impressed by how precise Guy was while in the air to get his bike set up to match the backside of this jump. Lap after lap he'd hit the jump, take a quick look over the bars at the landing, give a quick tap to the rear brake pedal, drop the front end just enough to match the slope of the downhill, and hit the bottom of the hill right before it flattened out. I don't remember anyone else executing that jump quite the same way.
For his reputation of being a fearless jumper, he was very methodical in executing those huge leaps.
Great memories - thx for the reminder BD.
Very well written, BD25! I painted several helmets for coop and got to go out to Stillwater to hang out with him and Wanda. Great people. And Stillwater was epic!!
Always loved rooting for the "working man" back in the 80's and Coop was one of my favorites. Not many people ran that "clean" "plain" Malcom Smith Racing gear back in the day,and his go for broke hi-flyin style. Epic!
I was so happy when he won that championship but what really won me over is when he made the switch to off-road,even riding the ISDE. Wished more riders of the new era showed thier love of racing motorcycles by extending careers and enjoying riding the bike in any condition. Guess I'm old fashioned at 46,the thing I remember the most after seeing On any sunday the first time is how much of a badAzz Malcom Smith was at any motorcycle discipline.
Thats skill at your craft there son.
@ Please don't hate us.The difference is that most of the top 250 riders stayed healthy and race all year.That should tell you something about what the problem is with the 450's.Now you have one of the craziest riders since McGoo tell you the 450's have to much power yet you still want to argue the point.
I'll post it one more time.
The whole four-stroke thing is killing the sport of dirt biking. Problem is if "they" did reduce to smaller displacement,rpm's rise and so do cost. They are already time bombs,worth as much as a boat anchor after you take out a loan and they grenade on you a year later.
Guess I'm still pissed over the demise of the 500's for making too much power and not enough of a show,so they replace em with high maintanence time bombs with F1 technology thats killing the sport that make bout the same (if not more) power.
At least kill the 250F's and make em 150 2 smokers.
I'll keep my 300 2stroke thank you.
@BD25. This was very cool to have you write this story and that bucky394 was able to figure out that it was you that did it.
BD25 AWESOME article!!!! I was fortunate enough to see Guy ride in his sunset year as a pro. The 1993 Citrus Bowl Supercross. My big bro even went up to him and said, hey Guy, I hope you get your first win tonight..he said thanks...and we came from South Africa to watch that race...and to meet mickey mouse ;-).
Chicken had pulled another one of those stupid moves on Airtime just the week before San Jose at Airtime's home race at Stillwater.
One of my favourite races was the Dallas 1993 supercross. If it had not been for Bradshaw, Cooper would've won that thing. He simply blew past Stanton and McGrath on his way to second.
He is SPOT on the money with regard to his opinion of the displacement. Four strokes are killing our sport. A proud 2 stroke owner :-).
I took a friend to the 125/500 National at Six Flags Over Georgia In the 1980's. He only knew a little about mx and while I was focused on the race for the lead the entire time, I remember him shouting to me over and over again "WATCH THIS COOPER DUDE". Guy was just blazing through the field from probably a 20 something start and he was putting on a show. I believe at the time tha Guy was doing the outdoor series from a Honda civic station wagon carrying his bike on bumper racks!!!
Finally had the time to read this arcticle. And it was a good one. Way to write, BD25! Soooo, now, as we are never satisfied, how about an interview with Trey Canard? As you knew his father, and posess the required writing skills, I think you are a shoe-in. And, by the looks of this thread, others agree. How cool is that? I pretty much get the moto fix here and here only, and don't recall much stuff about him recently. But, then again, if he's out, do to injury, there prolly isn't much to tell. On the other hand, he should be getting ready for the upcoming season, and may have a few comments. Just a thought!
Guy Cooper was always fun to watch on the track. He always flew higher and further than anybody else on the track!!! He mentions a child but does not mention his Wife. Is he still married? I remember a segment on TV about him and he was one of the first guys to be married as a racer. His Wife was mentioned as being his mechanic as well!!! Good to see he is still racing ad having fun. I wish I was in to photography back then and had pictures of him flying!!!
BD25....great article, and congrats!!!!!!! As bucky 394 asks....I would also like to hear from Trey Jorski. He was so fast on that Kawi KX. Back in the day I would be on the same start line, but was not at the same pace during the race. That said....Mosier Valley, Lake Whitney, Paris Raceway from the early 70's were filled with the best from Texas and OK.
This article, and "Airtime" recollections are priceless.
Thanks again Bill for submitting this interview! And RacerX......great decision and ya'll need to hire this freelance!!!!!!!!!
On this day of giving Thanks, I start with Guy, for taking the time and allowing me the opportunity to sit down with him for this interview.. Next, Thanks to Jason and DC for taking time to read it and putting it on line..and Big Thanks to all of you who have been reading my posts and leaving such positive feedback, your the ones who gave me the idea to get back to writing. I hope all of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving as your kind words have given me one!!!
A150 cc is like an 80 cc two stroke idiot
That's Mcgrath #17. If you need proof check out this link:
I can prove 22 is Buddy too, but believe me, it is.
"That's Mcgrath #17. If you need proof check out this link:
I can prove 22 is Buddy too, but believe me, it is."
#17 is Swink. #125 was Mcgrath. 22 was indeed buddy Antunez. That article was wrong.
Check out this Buckley photo of MC in 1992 at the 'wick:
Sure looks like the same #17 guy to me. Same gear and all. Look at the color on the knees.
rickamatuzio... I knew you would appreciate his views on that subject...so you are not alone in your quest!!! Several people agree with you as posted above...have a good day..keep up the good fight!!

Epidermoid inclusion cyst
An encapsulated, nonenhancing extradural mass is seen compressing the conus medullaris. The mass is isointense to cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) on T1-weighted imaging (T1WI) and heterogenous on T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) with portions isointense and hypointense to CSF.
Epidermoid inclusion cysts are benign neoplasms composed entirely of ectodermal tissue. Approximately 60% are congenital and 40% are acquired. As demonstrated in this case, acquired epidermoids, arise from iatrogenically implanted epithelial elements from procedures such as lumbar punctures or back surgery. In particular, advancing a needle during lumbar puncture without the stilette in place can implant epithelial elements into the spinal canal.
Epidermoids of the spine are rare and constitute less than 1% of intraspinal tumors. They may be extramedullary intradural or extradural. Epidermoids are slow growing neoplasms that present with slowly progressive symptoms, such as radicular back pain, paresthesias, and sphincter dysfunction. The masses are encapsulated and contain desquamated epithelial keratin and cholesterol crystals. Most often they are smooth or lobulated, but they may occasionally be nodular.
As with intracranial epidermoids, acquired spinal epidermoids tend to follow CSF signal on both T1WI and T2WI. As in this case, the T2WI may be heterogenous with only portions of the mass demonstrating CSF signal. No enhancement is seen after the administration of contrast material. Diffusion-weighted imaging should demonstrate restricted diffusion.
Treatment consists of complete surgical resection.
Key learning point: A nonenhancing mass in the region of the cauda equina in a patient with a history of lumbar puncture or back surgery is suggestive of an acquired epidermoid.

4 ways to avoid a holiday credit hangover
If you overindulged in spending during the holidays, there are steps to prevent a sick feeling when you get your new credit card bills.
This post comes from Jeanne Kelly at partner site Credit.com.
The past couple of weeks have been filled with holiday parties and eggnog and turkey and gifts and good cheer. If you are like most people, you might have reached for an extra serving of turkey or grabbed an extra cookie when no one was looking. But now that the indulgence is over, something else is about to strike: the holiday credit hangover.
Will you suffer from it?
In the weeks leading up to Christmas, many people pulled out their credit cards to buy the perfect gifts for the people on their list, and the perfect outfits to wear to the parties -- and let's not forget the mountains of food purchased for those big family get-togethers.
But now, many people are starting to feel the sting of a holiday credit hangover as their generous spending comes due: Those gifts and outfits and food purchases paid for by credit cards need to be paid off.
The credit hangover will hurt when you get your first credit card bills in January. If they aren't paid off, they will hurt worse when you get your credit card bills in February, March and for as long as it takes to pay them off.
So how can you avoid a holiday credit hangover? Here are four ways to take action right now:
Create a 'pay off those Christmas bills ASAP' budget.
While you might have a budget already -- and you should have one! -- these holiday bills could require slight modifications to your budget to pour more money into paying them off. That means fewer dinners out with friends or fewer extra-large lattes from your favorite gourmet coffee shop. It's a short-term sacrifice to ensure that you don't feel the long-term pain of high interest or late-payment notices.
Pay some of your bills right now, before you get a credit card statement.
This is a great way to soften the blow. If you can put aside a few dollars now, even before your credit card statement arrives in the mail, it will be like a little gift to yourself when you open your bill and know that it is less than what is printed because you already sent in some money.
Review your credit card statements when you get them in the mail or online.
When your bill arrives, take a close look at it. Can you account for everything? Make sure that you know what each item is and investigate the unknowns carefully. Compare against your receipts and ensure that you were charged the right amount. This is also a quick way to make sure that an identity thief isn't trying to bury a purchase somewhere in your long list.
Pay your credit card bills in full as quickly as possible.
The worst part of the holiday credit hangover is if a credit card bill can't be paid in full in January. The interest charged on the remaining balance in February (and March, etc.) can suddenly make the holidays seem much less joyous -- and far more expensive.
And remember that it's better to make a minimum payment than to avoid the debt altogether, which can damage your credit scores and raise your interest rate to the penalty annual percentage rate.
This past holiday season was a time to build wonderful memories with your family and friends. But now that the new year is here, it's time to take action to make sure that the holiday season remains a wonderful memory and doesn't lead to a nasty holiday credit hangover.

mesne profits
Definition from Nolo's Plain-English Law Dictionary
(meen) Profits or value of land during the time someone was wrongfully occupying the land. For example, if someone farmed a plot of land without permission, any profit from that activity would be owed to the actual landowner. Similarly, a tenant who stays on after a court has issued a judgment for possession to the landlord owes the landlord the value of the time spent there without permission.

Guaranty Purchase
SBA reviews a lender's request that SBA honor (purchase) the guaranty, this review determines if the lender has complied with the SBA loan authorization for the loan, SBA requirements, and prudent lending practices. The amount and types of documentation that the lender must include in its guaranty purchase package depends on the type of loan, use of proceeds, collateral, and other factors. SBA conducts its review prior to purchasing its guaranty when SBA purchases directly from the lender ("pre-purchase review"), and conducts its review after purchasing its guaranty when SBA purchases directly from the secondary market holder ("post-purchase review"). SBA rarely purchases without a lender demand, but it has regulatory authority to do so in its sole discretion (13 C.F.R. § 120.520).

This toaster oven earned the highest rating from the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because it quickly cooked pizza and cookies and maintained a constant cooking temperature. Also described by The Wall Street Journal as capable of doing "just about everything we use the oven for," The Best Toaster Oven's internal temperature varied only 2.89ş F when measured at different locations within the oven when set to 400ş F, far superior to lesser units that varied as much as 65ş F and burned different areas of food, such as the back of a pizza. The Best model has nine settings—the most of any oven—designed for specific foods (pizza, bagel, cookies). It suggests ideal cooking temperatures and times for each foodstuff and automatically adjusts the heat for optimal results. The 1,800-watt oven broils, cooks with convection, and defrosts at the touch of a button, its easy-to-read LCD shows temperatures and cooking times, and the 0.8 cubic foot interior accommodates a 12" pizza or six pieces of toast. 11 1/4" H x 18 1/2" W x 16" D. (21 1/2 lbs.)
Lifetime Guarantee
The Best Toaster Oven comes with The Hammacher Schlemmer Lifetime Guarantee at no additional charge. If this product ever disappoints you, for any reason, you may return your Hammacher Schlemmer purchase for exchange, credit, or refund.Should you have any questions, we are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Excellent Toaster Oven
By Roblaw
from Plymouth Meeting, PA
We use our toaster oven for most of our cooking. This works beautifully and is amazingly versatile. I only have it a few weeks so I would have to be cautious on the reliability since there have been a few who have had poor reviews on durability (another reason to purchase from HS), however, as a toaster oven it is excellent.

Nifty oven
By Happy Toaster
from NH
Easy to use dials allow both pre-programmed and manual settings. The optional convection fan can be turned off by simply pushing a button.
Exceeded my expectations
By EA4HD
from Kansas City, MO
I am using this in place of my oven on the stove. It is an amazing device for my kitchen. It is fast, even heating and can cook most anything. I do wish it were a little larger
Pleasantly surprised!
By annie
from cape cod
Very versatile! Due to it's size we are finding we are using it more than our full size wall oven. We haven't encounter any negatives in the few weeks we are using it.The description does not do it justice -- it is more than a toaster oven it is a convection oven
Versatile and Convenient
By Dee
from Harrington Park, NJ
A wonderful way to avoid heating the "big" oven; even heating ensures even cooking across entire oven surface.

the best oven I have ever owned.
By none
from Las Vages Nv.
It's to small for a family. We can not roast a 7 rib roast or a turkey. It would be more useful if it were larger.
Love it. the best ever
By Mom
from Macon, GA
toast, bake, warm, broil.Use instead of big oven most of the time
Excellent Oven/Excellent Vendor
By Linda Passionionate about Food
from Tallahassee, FL
After doing a lot of research, we decided on this oven, and purchasing it from Hammacker Schlemmer due to overall great reviews everywhere, and the HS lifetime warranty on products they sell, as well as their reputation. The oven meets and maybe even exceeds our expectation. Quiet when running convection, bakes a variety of items, great warming cycle, toasts well, but probably just as important is the ease in operating this high tech oven - very intuitive even if you didn't read the manual (like my hubby).

Looks Great
By Lil
from Southeast Michigan
It needs extra space around it because of heat generated. Would have liked that information before making the purchase. Love the way it looks and works.

MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Aramis Ramirez and Corey Hart each hit a three-run homer and the Milwaukee Brewers pounded the Houston Astros 10-1 on Tuesday night.
Ramirez had three hits and four RBIs, including his 13th homer of the season in the third inning. Hart hit his three-run shot in the fifth, his 20th homer.
Brewers starter Yovani Gallardo (9-8) went seven innings, giving up one run and three hits with a walk and five strikeouts. And this time he wasn't betrayed by the team's leaky bullpen, as Jim Henderson got out of a bases-loaded jam in the eighth and Francisco Rodriguez pitched a perfect ninth.

Southwestern to Host Week of Events Celebrating the Life of Martin Luther King Jr.
2013 marks the 50th anniversary of King's famous 'I Have A Dream' speech
Southwestern is planning a series of events the week of Jan. 21 to celebrate the life of Martin Luther King Jr.
The events will begin at 11 a.m. on Monday, Jan. 21, when students join members of the Georgetown community in a march to celebrate King's memory. Students interested in joining the march will meet on the Academic Mall.
On Monday evening, Southwestern is hosting a reception and program beginning at 5 p.m. in the Bishops Lounge. The featured speaker for this event is Rev. Don Brewington, chaplain of Huston–Tillotson University. The event also will feature musical and spoken tributes to King from members of the Southwestern, Georgetown and Austin communities.
On Wednesday, Jan. 23, Southwestern will host a screening of the documentary titled "Brother Outsider - The Life of Bayard Rustin." Rustin was a mentor to King and the architect of the legendary 1963 March on Washington. The film will begin at 6 p.m. in Olin 105.
Southwestern also will host an interfaith service in honor of King on Thursday, Jan. 24, at 11:30 a.m. in the Lois Perkins Chapel. The service will be led by Rudy Williams, a Southwestern graduate and pastor of Friendly Will Missionary Baptist Church in Georgetown. It will include performances by first-year students Brandon Baker and Nathanael Sherrod.
On Friday, Jan. 25, members of the Southwestern community will have the opportunity to pay tribute to early African-American Georgetown citizens by participating in a guided tour called The Georgetown Freedom Tour. The tour will visit two sites of local historical significance: The Old Georgetown Cemetery and the Shotgun House. The tour will depart from the McCombs parking lot at 3 p.m.
The week's activities will conclude with a special Friday Night Live event featuring comedian Owen Smith. Smith will perform at 8 p.m. in the Cove.
Terri Johnson, assistant dean for student multicultural affairs, noted that 2013 marks the 50th anniversary of King's famous "I Have A Dream" speech. A committee composed of students, faculty, staff and community members has planned the events for the week.
The week prior to MLK Day, students will be hosting an "MLK Trivia" contest Jan. 15-17 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Bishops Lounge to help people learn more about King and his legacy.
All events are free and open to the public. For more information, call 512-863-1342 or write firstname.lastname@example.com.

Assuming the cards will work at 2x, what is the fastest AGP 2x card available? Is it better to just use a PCI card?

DHAKA: We all have read thousands of beauty tips and tried hundreds of beauty products. Mind you, only few are worth following. We share some useful beauty tricks!Secret 1Drink water: Thinking it`s no secret? Well, forget about the eight glass rule. Make sure you drink just enough that you don`t feel thirsty. Says freelancer Prachi, "My skin gets all flaky and dry if I am not well hydrated."Secret 2Sunscreen is a must: Sunscreen is a guarantee for youthful skin. UV rays is the most common source of skin cancer and ageing. Be it rains or sunshine, make sure your skin is nicely smothered with sunscreen- and you know the rule- apply it 15 minutes prior to walking out so the body absorbs it properly.Secret 3Moisturise: Make sure you have a moisturizing body lotion that includes a self-tanner. It helps you hide spider veins on your legs and give a slimming effect all over.Secret 4Hands and neck are important too: Treat your hands and neck like your face. Wash, cleanse and moisturise. Apply suitable creams and rub it nicely on your neck and hands to make sure they glow as much as your facial skin.Secret 5Exercise! If you want glow on your face, facials are not the only option. Workouts help improve blood circulation and oxygen capacity. So hit the treadmill and enjoy the healthy glow!Secret 6Eat right: Eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Stress a lot on vitamin A, C and E and they help deal with skin issues. Applying antioxidants on the skin also help...Secret 7Feel good: Do things that make you feel great about yourself. If you look happy you will automatically feel the glow. So smile and stay cheerful!BDST: 1000 HRS, JULY 01 2012Edited by: Sharmina Islam, Lifestyle Editor

Elmhurst store distributes shoes for summer camp
ELMHURST – Charlie Kern remembers cringing on the first day of cross country practice every year when one of his students arrived wearing high-top basketball shoes or skate sneakers. Now, children registered for his summer running camp in Elmhurst receive a pair of Nike running shoes.
"If they're going to go through a camp where they're learning to run properly with good form, we don't want to just slap a pair of shoes that's their size on their feet," said Ashley Wells, who operates Fleet Feet Sports in Elmhurst with her husband, Jason.
The store staff spent a week fitting each child, not only by size, but also determining whether a neutral or stability shoe would be more beneficial.

NEWS FLASHNewton shooter was a Bengazi demonstrator too!..Obama says wait until after a full and complete investigation....Media says..."What Shooting?"
Atta boy Dana, you stay right down there on your knees and keep propping him up.You mutt.
One does wonder how it must feel to be a Court Eunuch like this - emasculated, self-respect and willingness to think tossed out the window, replaced by a bondage-like dependency on one´s Master. I can´t imagine it´s a nice feeling. On the other hand, they did win the election.
I reacted differently to this column. It appears to me that Milbank is seeing through the Obama posturing and writing about it. FTA: "But even as he vowed to take action on guns over the "next couple months," his immediate tactic was to use the Newtown shootings to strengthen his hand on the extraneous topic of the budget standoff."
Dana thinks his tongue lashings are actually helpful advice.
Dazed and stupid looking is more like it, the second term nightmare is just beginning!
Agree with No.4. Dana is Obie´s nightmare on the left and has been for sometime. He says through the weedle and pose and let´s him have it. Read this again.
FTA:"You know," he added a moment later, "it is very hard for them to say yes to me. But, you know, at some point, you know, they've got to take me out of it and think about their voters and think about what's best for the country."I heard this on the radio and he didn´t say ´you know´. He actually said ´eeee-oh´.
I suspect Dana´s "tongue lashings" for Obama are of an entirely different nature.
