Saw that the Defensive coach might be goin pro for Bama...didnt know if any one had anything for his recruitment!
Vonn Updates?
It's funny you say this....have you happen to notice the slew of new offers? Do you think that's just because Gibson chose WVU or also bc the staff are already preparing for Bell to stay south???? I'll let you decide what you think Urban and Co. are doing...;-) I'm like everyone I'd assume and would love to see Bell in this class. I'm just not so sure that's what is going to happen IMHO.

all he was saying is that Urban is still recruiting Bell until the end. Instead of just saying "oh well, looks like he is leaning towards Alabama...guess we should just move on". I agree he is throwing all these new offers out because he must get a not so confident feeling, but that certainly doesn't mean he is no longer recruiting Bell as hard as he can.
It's a matter of have some manner of control over the situation.
Fans: Recruit you really want may be leaning towards another school, since you have no influence what so ever in his decision you protect yourself from dissapointment by lowering your expectations.
Urban: Recruit you really want may be leaning towards another school, since you are one of the primary factors in his decision you work your butt off to try and pull him in the other direction knowing you did all that you could.
Our honor defend we will fight to the end for Ohio..
Apparently checking out Mrs. Saban's Mercedes (also per brother). So on this visit he:
1) Attended a Bama / A&M basketball game
2) Walked on the field at Bryant-Denny stadium
3) Saw a Bama championship parade
4) Tried on a Bama uniform
5) Went over to Coach Saban's house for lunch
That's a masterwork of excellent timing + recruiting, you have to give it to Saban. That's the sort of experience you pay $100k for in a charity auction.
Really odd that Vonn's big brother was a bit "high roadish" on his tweets about the Alabama visit. Not sure what to make of it, but the Alabama visit tweets were vastly different in tone (more bland) than the OSU visit tweets.
Anyone else notice that? I wonder if he was told to tone it down or if there was another reason. The differences just seemed to stand out to me but I don't know why.
I am preparing myself for a Bama committment... Really want the kid but not holding my breath...

I hope Twitter has something to do with it....then we may land him???
Wow...anyhow...if he chooses OSU...he chooses us. I'm still going with Bama....bc of 2-5 of LLJJGG was spot on besides the BBall game. It's going to be a tough row to hoe to win Vonn's services...I knew this was going to happen. Saban's just as good if not better than Urban for now bc of what he's built at Bama in the last 8 years. Hate him and DV me...but truth is truth. I'm about 70% bama 30% us. We'll see I hope he comes to the good guys....but I'm not feeling too good about it.

I agree with you, and like you I'm trying not to be pessimistic. But I've felt he was all Bama since 1) he took multiple unofficial visits to Bama during the season and 2) came back from his OSU visit uncommitted. It's not that he HAD to commit on his visit or would have been all that willing to, but the fact that Bama was thought to lead all along and he was returning from his OSU visit to an in-house with Saban and a visit to Bama that weekend? To me that's game, set, match.
I would LOVE to be wrong, but I just don't see the smoke to think there's any fire and he's going to shock us by choosing OSU. I felt the same way about Stefon Diggs last year--there was really no reason to think he was leaning OSU at the end, but I just kind of bought in because I wanted to believe it lol. At the end of the day, it seemed like his list was 1) Maryland 2) UF 3) OSU. I think Bell's is 1) Bama 2) OSU 3) Tenn and has been for a long time. Just my 2 cents.
I think he's all Bama. I hope I'm wrong but I just think with as many visits as he had to Bama throughout the season (yeah, I know it's closer to his home) that he's just sold there. He even said in an interview (before he OVs were scheduled): "...and he's (saban) going to coach me..."
I very much hope I am wrong.
I was looking at Alabama's 247 site today and they mention 5* Safety Tony Conner visited a week ago. It says Ole Miss is the leader for him right now but I wonder how his recruitment might affect Bell. I know Alabama has no problem signing both of them but I would be interested to see if Alabama could get Conner if it would hurt their chances with Bell.
^^^^This is true and the reason why if we miss on Bell...it's really not that big of a deal. Many (even myself) have said it would be a big deal for OSU to land Bell. However, Burrows, Apple, Lee, Thompson, with possibly Worley and Conley or Jacobs could all play DB. Some may play WR or see offense in some way shape or form (or another position on defense). Either way...we'll be ok.
Personally...I'm saying Bell goes to Bama that way if he comes...then it will be icing on an already stellar DB/possible LB or WR recruiting cake...IMO of course.

I may be misinterpreting, but your comment makes it seem like Alabama is light years ahead of us on the recruiting front. I'd stack Urban and his staff up against anyone in the country. Our classes over the past 5 - 10 years have been just as highly touted as Alabama's. We just came off of an undefeated season and are only a couple seasons removed from being 12-1 Sugar Bowl Champions (Had it not been for that fateful night in Madison, we'd have been playing bama in the MNC game).
I'd say Terrelle Pryor or Beanie Wells were 'The Guy' during their recruitment. This kids a really really good highschool safety and would be an awesome get to piece together a great class but I think we're putting to much stock in him. In this year's class alone, I'd put Bosa, Jalin, and Mike Mitchell at equal to or greater value than this kid.
Time and change will surely show how firm they friendship... O-HI-O.
They mention it below but I figured I'd at least answer your question in case you didn't see it...Urban used him home visit when he went down and watched Vonn's game and met up with him afterwards. But we do have Wither's visit remaining so that will be key at this point if all things are even as he indicates they are.
Not sure about that but mark givler of rivals said Vonn told him this morning that he still has no leader, everyone is even at this point. So that last in home visit could be huge! Get em boys!
The great thing about Urban and recruiting is he is relentless. He never lets up and never quits. Whereas many of us have already been resigned to the "Bell is going to Bama" (myself included), Urban doesn't see it that way. He will push until Bell says not to push any longer, that he's made a decision.
What an awesome coach to have! With recruiting and the game itself, you will win some and lose some. If Bell goes to Bama, so be it, it's not because Urban didn't give it his all and I'd rather have "his all" than any other coaches' in the country. That's a FACT. There will be many more recruiting battles to be won rest assured.
I'm sticking with Bell to Bama but I won't count OSU/Urban out until NSD and Bell announces/signs for the Tide.
Champions Bleed Scarlet & Gray
Anything goes and I will still add that with Urban, never out of the game until the end. Urban is known for the late additions and pull-ins. He ripped Sharriff Floyd from OSU a few years ago, last year pulled a couple late gets with Dodson and Reeves.
and if he doesn't come, I won't say we don't need him, but not like the cupboard is empty either. Jayme Thompson, Lee and Burrows can be the future at Safety while Barnett, Bryant and Pitt Brown are the present. Still have Tyvis Powell who I am still very high on. The kid is a lanky 6'3'' Safety who can fly. He was getting some good experience early last year till a slight injury set him back and then OSU was in the middle of its conference schedule, so of course he didn't get any play. but there is some solid talent that Bell can add to.
Plus the way Urban recruits athletes that can fill a variety of roles, I think Bell would just be a cherry on top more than a savior of need!
I saw a UFO once.......it told me to have a goodyear!

Matters what you are going after. Do you want to win 10-11 games, sure he is not necessary or the savior. Do you want to compete for a national title? Bell still not the savior, but rather we need several kids of his caliber to committ.
I'm on the same boat in terms of who I hope commits, but 26 is getting pretty tight in terms of space. It may only be 3 of those 4.

Coach Meyer hit me up this morning s/o to #BuckeyeNation
— Volonte™ (@VdatDudee) January 22, 2013
"I'm One Bad Buckeye, and I approve this message."
I know! Right? You have to wonder how this happens....when a family shows up on campus for the official does Urban demand everyone's cell phone number/e-mail address/twitter handle and make them accept his friend request on facebook before they're allowed to proceed with the OV? Haha!
"I'm One Bad Buckeye, and I approve this message."
Maybe I don't know much about recruiting, but seeing this kid play, I'd be totally fine if he was the only recruit we pulled in from here on out this year. Obviously wouldn't hurt to get some others but either way, I'm excited for feb 6. Make the right choice Vonn. Go bucks.
Some upvotes would be much appreciated. gotta get to 50 so i can upvote everyone else.
Comments from his visit this weekend:
"It was a good weekend in Knoxville," Bell said. "Opened a lot of eyes and [made] more discussion points … Just being around Coach [Butch] Jones and all the coaching staff you feel positive energy. Walking in [Thompson-Boling] arena you feel the fan love and the excitement there looking forward to the next season and see what Coach Jones brings."
Note: Hyperlink is giving me some difficulties, but here's the addy for the full write-up:
I don't think it will happen but if Bell and Johnson both go to UT instead of OSU, I will be stunned! Bell I can see but Johnson would just be ridiculous to lose out to them.
Just really surprises me that these kids wouldn't want to play for Urban and OSU when the positions really could use them. I would understand if they went somewhere else because OSU has locked up starters for a couple years, but they are both needed alot.
I saw a UFO once.......it told me to have a goodyear!
I was actually looking into the Poggi visit to Bama and I came across this...
I don't have a subscription so I can't see all the story or comments but the ones I do see are "sucks on Bell" and "Yeah really wanted Bell. May still get him but this speaks volumes about how our staff feels about Eddie Jackson."
So things may be trending up towards OSU or Tenn. If anyone has some more insight about this, do share with BuckeyeNation!
Supposedly Andrew Bone (recruiting analyst for Tidesports.com, Bama writer for Rivals) said yesterday that he doesn't predict Bell to be in Bama's class any longer, and that he believes TENN will win out. I haven't seen his post/article on it specifically, but it is a rumor that has a lot of legs. Bell keeps saying that they're all even, so there IS an actual possibility that no one leads and he's still making his decision (despite many of us thinking it was Bama for quite awhile). If that's the case, I like our chances with Withers still having an in-home visit!
I agree... I believe Withers could seal the deal for Bell with that final in-home. I think after this weekend it is going to be down to OSU and UT. I think we are about even, but Butch Jones and his staff have picked up some momentum on the recruiting trail. He is bringing in a lot of alums and really selling the tradition of UT football. Plus, the brand new $42 million dollar facility doesn't hurt.
Perfectly fair point. I'm not really an NFL fan these days, so following recruiting during the last few weeks of January gives me my last real taste of anything football-related until around August! That's where most of my recruiting interest comes from, anyway (I don't follow it much until January each year, but this month is fun for me).

So there's this. I always had the Vols pegged as a longshot. I'm gonna guess this anonymous coach is none other than Brady Hoke.
This kind of stuff, many times, seems to go the opposite direction of the no-name insider info. Vonn can go to the Vols and be a star on his own in the defensive backfield or come to OSU and work with multiple playmakers in the OSU backfield while chasing national championships. Hope he can identify the difference. And if his heart says he wants to be a Vol then so be it, good luck to him.
"According to Skeeter, Vonn Bell has informed UT coaches he will be a Vol." Not sure exactly how to post a tweet, but this is a tweet from a Vols recruiting writer. Skeeter is a member who works in the UT athletic department. I live in TN and twitter is blowing up around here with all kinds of rumors swirling from Knoxville. Not sure exactly of how credible the source is but just thought I would pass it along. Have been to watch Vonn play a couple of times this year, and really hope this is wrong.

— Sab (@Sabanocchio) January 29, 2013
I'm not into moral victories, but if it's true that he's TENN, I'm just pleased he's not going to Bama. Bama we could very well play in a Nat'l Championship game, and they have enough depth already as it is. TENN on the other hand we'll likely never see in a BCS game.
Good job stereotyping... My name is Kyle and I live in the south. I wear tennis shoes, have all my teeth, and have an advanced degree.
Back to the topic tho... When is Everett Withes in-home visit? There is a lot of buzz here in TN about Bell going to UT... Of course there was a lot of buzz around Jon Gruden and that turned out to be false too. Anybody have the date on that visit? It will be our last shot to seal the deal on Bell.
My point wasn't to stereotype. The guy's name is Skeeter. That seems unbelievable, like something made up because it is the south.
Also, Bubba and Skeeter are nicknames associated with the South - FACT. That is to say nothing about the education level of the people there or their dental hygene. Just like a guy named Colt, or Tex is probably from Texas and a girl named Lennay is probably from an imagination.
unless he went in the house its not an in home visit.... If all he did was watch a game that means nothing by the rules... i believe usualyy in these instances the coach will make it a point to say hi and congrats on teh game etc... but thats it... lets teh kid know he was there as it were.
"Statistics always remind me of a fellow who drowned in a river where the average depth was only three feet." - Coach Woody Hayes
FWIW (and please take it with a...giant...grain of salt), Mike Farrell believes Vonn will be a Buckeye come NSD. Direct quote from a Rivals recruiting articles dated 1/30 (today): "...but Vonn Bell is the toughest one to figure. I said it would be Alabama then but now it appears to be a battle between Ohio State and Tennessee. There is a lot of smoke about a silent Tennessee commitment and I know Bell's parents loved Knoxville, but a reliable source told me that the Buckeyes still have the edge despite the excellent visit to the Vols. I'm going to say Ohio State, but not with a ton of confidence."

In the same article he also says he thinks Wilson will stick with Oregon.

Well we will know soon enough what a day the Sixth will be not only is it NSD it is also the day i get my yearly bonus from work, probably have to buy some 11w gear to treat myself. Vonn i hope committs but if he doesnt just have to roll with what we got and get it done on the practice field and film room. No matter the star behind your recruiting just work hard and bust ass.
Michigan Sucks!
A link that has an interview with Vonn from this week basically tells us what we already know. But I know how we all are looking for something on this recruit.
I like him, very articulate, most kids would not perform that well with a camera in their face for an interview... very poised and good eye contact without stumbling or ummming his way through it.
As Tony Stark said... want em... gotta have em!
While I think the reporters put OSU's mention 3rd in the questioning, I think his best comments were for OSU, and I think it will be a huge get on NSD over Bama... and will really help us recruit in the South (Even more than we already are) and be a factor for major recruits.
Love the fact we are last to see him!
"Statistics always remind me of a fellow who drowned in a river where the average depth was only three feet." - Coach Woody Hayes
I think it's a good sign that he and his family love Coach Withers and that one of the most important things to him is the relationship aspect. Along with that he is gonna sit down with his family and weigh the pros and cons. OSU has a lot of positives, IMO, for him and I hope he picks OSU, obviously. Don't wanna get my hopes up but I think he picks us.
When asked what will separate the 3 power programs, Bell said: "the people" and "how I fit into the program"
I like these comments and I think it helps tOSU. He's got a great relationship with Meyer & co. Tennessee is late to the party in terms of established coaching staff. Saban could flirt with the NFL at anytime...Meyer looks to have the most stability. Also, he would fit great into tOSU with regards to early playing time and Withers' defensive schemes. Come up to C-bus, Vonn! You'll be a fan favorite from Day 1. @ 'Bama you'll be just another guy. @ Tennessee - yes, you'll be a huge get, but let's be honest -- they're at least a few years away from competing for a conference division title, let alone anything more. Ohio State and Von Bell seem like the perfect fit for each other.
"You win with people." - Woody Hayes
I agree with your thoughts, but you make OSU sound like they are inferior to Alabama when you say he will just be another guy, we have a top five recruiting class too, we expect nothing less than a national championship every year, he'll have to work his ass off here too if he wants to play with the best, or "he'll just be another guy"! Don't sell us short, go Bucks!
Some info:
"Ohio State co-defensive coordinator Everett Withers was at Ridgeland on Thursday morning and left campus to meet with Bell's father, Vincent, at his job.
Alabama defensive coordinator Kirby Smart and new defensive backs coach Greg Brown were expected on campus to meet with Bell on Thursday afternoon."
And are we really going in this direction...

^ESPN chat with Jared Shanker today, some interesting stuff regarding OSU recruiting if you skim through it. He seems sold that we're not getting Vonn Bell, Dontre Wilson or James Clark.
It'd be nice to land Bell and that way I can tell all these "ya-hoo" recruiting analysts that have said everybody in Vonn's top choices are the favorite to land him at some point or another, OTHER THAN the Buckeyes, to go and shove it up their asses....
Can Signing Day just get here already??? Damn...
"You're pissed because we went after a committed guy? Guess what, we got nine guys who better go do it again. Do it a little harder next time." -- Urban Frank Meyer -- I LOVE THIS DUDE!! :)
A good friend of mine lives in Knoxville (grew up in NE ohio, transferred for work) and his son attends UT and is in the athletic training program. He said the folks down there are supremely confident that Bell is committing to UT. He said all they talk about is Vonn becoming the next Eric Berry and that the staff sold him hard on being the face of the program and the face of the programs turnaround. He also said that folks are looking at it as a 2 way fight with UT and Alabama and nobody is really concerned with tOSU. I really cannot wait until NSD and i hope that we can pull in Mr Bell and shut all those SEC fans up! I never thought i would say this, but i CANNOT wait until next week!!!
And for the record, yes my buddy is still a die hard Buckeye fan and he said that awful SEC chant is even worse when you have to hear it all weekend long during football season.
Something interesting I noticed...Tenn will have 17 returning DBs. While OSU will have 12 with 4 2012 SRs gone and Jamie Wood calling it quits in October (there's some on the 2013 commit list but lets face it...Burrows, Apple and Bell has a nice sound to it doesn't it? As much as I like Lee and possibly Worley at Safety...Bell's pretty damn good). I'm not a math wize but that seems pretty glaringly obvious where he'll get more playing time and possibly right away. I wasn't feeling great about this with Bell but now that I know Bama wants him as a CB and then Tenn pulled a Maryland for Diggs from last year around this very same time. Hopefully Withers was pointing that roster size out one last time to the family to sway his commitment. I just hope these Vol fans/recruiting ppl are wrong with this he's been all Tenn the whole time....

According to the VolNation forums (Tennessee Volunteer fans) that twitter account is unreliable at best, they don't even think it's happening (and they have orange-colored glasses on at all times). So I wouldn't take the twitter account too seriously.
EDIT: Apparently 247's TENN site asked Bell's father and his father said he's not there on an unofficial as far as he's aware of.

If you look on UT forums discussing Bell it is like walking through a mine field. Of course they want him badly. They have absolutely no idea what's going on. Many say he will be a Buckeye, while some say he is all UT. They have one wild paranoia filled idea after another about what did, will or might happen. So, Vonn hasn't silent verballed to anyone IMO. OSU has as good a shot as anyone and in fact I think it would be very difficult for him to say no to Urban and what awaits him in Columbus.
"Of course they want him badly. They have absolutely no idea what's going on. Many say he will be a Buckeye, while some say he is all UT. They have one wild paranoia filled idea after another about what did, will or might happen."
I sure am relieved that we don't get that in Buckeye country!!
@LouGroza: lol no kidding. I read a post on VolNation a bit ago where they called Urban Meyer and Nick Saban "selfish, self-serving a-holes" who are, and I quote, "convincing Vonn not to follow his heart and his lifelong dream."
The extreme element of fandom I do not understand haha. If someone doesn't play in their home state they've been tainted by evil? I doubt even the players themselves take this stuff that seriously!
@justin_corum Less than I was earlier this week. Urban Meyer can close. Still think #Vols but not as confident.
— JC Shurburtt (@jcshurburtt) February 2, 2013
I said it once, and I'll say it again, Meyer would have looked him right in the eyes and said "Von, we currently sit on the brink of one of the greatest DB classes in recent memory with Apple, Burrows, Conley, and Thompson. I'm looking at you, and I'm seeing the guy who would be the glue holding it all together. You would be the out right leader and captaian of that crew, as you go, they go."
Can you imagine how his chest must have puffed up if Meyer took that approach? How could you say no?
I don't always downvote, but I do always downvote a Michigan fan trolling the Buckeye boards.
The UT fans are just in a panic because they see their program becoming irrelevant. If they can't get a commitment from a talent like Bell who has been a life long Vol fan, then what do they have to look forward too.
Even though Coach Meyer and crew have missed on some targets its amazing to see how many national top level talents have seriously considered tOSU. Their relentless approach to not only finding the best Ohio talent but the best talent from across the country can only pay dividends in the future.
Vonn is that piece of the puzzle just in reach that seems to drive Meyer and hopefully he and his parents will see that winning attitude as the best place for him.
I'm hearing now that the Vols have a pretty good lead on Ohio State now and that pretty much everyone is on board for Tennessee in his family.
Sources from all three schools as well as others now feel he is Tennessee's to lose. Tennessee did a great job with the mom especially and this appears to be all Vols barring a change of mind at last minute.
The key point here is that the other schools involved, especially Ohio State, are almost conceding he will be a Vol as I have good sources everywhere as you may or may not know.
^Quotes from Mike Farrell/Rivals
Maybe Von's just doing what Quick did. Make it seem like one team is leading so that when he actually decides he can shock everyone.
Realisitically though, it'd be a shame to lose him to Tennessee. No matter what their fans think, they're a long way away from being relevant again.
I still think we have a 50/50 shot on James Clark (seems to be trending OSU or FLA, not hearing anything on Clemson). And a 1/3 shot at Dontre Wilson. There's also a shot that Vonn Bell surprises people and picks OSU.
It's never over till they sign the paperwork. Also, not to be an annoyingly glass half full kind of guy, but in my mind if Zeke Elliott signs with OSU on NSD, that's a victory as well.
James Quick and Vonn Bell will follow a long list of guys like Stefon Diggs who will go to programs who sold them on them being the one that gets it started and more will follow. When really the programs they go to are irrelevant and always will be. Vonn Bell committing to UT will raise them up from 44 on scout to 41st on scouts team rankings just behind Northwestern. Even with James Quick committed Louisvilles class is ranked at 50 on scout. Kansas and Kentucky have higher ranked classes.
WRs make a very small impact on a game if they don't have a good QB to throw to them. Diggs, Gibson, and any other WR that picked an irrelevant school has made this mistake. TBD if Quick will be part of this group.

Source: http://ohiostate.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1466438
Also: In case you're wondering, they predicted Dontre Wilson to OSU, Zeke to OSU, Munger to OSU, Trey Johnson to OSU, Clark to UF, Timmons to UK, and Elder to Auburn.
FWIW On Rivals, they have a page where they predict where the Rivals250 Recruits will end up. 6/8 are saying UT, 1/8 are saying OSU, 1/8 saying Bama. Not feeling too confident but I am hoping that having the last in-home gives us an unforeseen advantage.

Hearing that things could be trending back to #OSU for Vonn Bell. This one is a roller coaster. #Vols
— Mike Farrell (@rivalsmike) February 4, 2013
Wow ^^^
The way I see it, for Vonn it's a decision where he has his heart & his mind.
His mind says Buckeyes. His heart says Vols.
Given the criteria he, his family, & coaches weighed out - early playing time, playing the safety position (which ruled out Bama), his relationships (which kept tOSU in it with Tenn), then everything else: what kinda players he'll be playing with, what's the current status of the program, which will allow him to win immediately & compete for championships, which path will get him more exposure, & ultimately into the NFL - he KNOWS Ohio State is the best place from him to go.
However, he's a relationships guy, it's hard to defer your childhood/hometown dream of playing for the same school one of your favorite players (he mentions KC's Eric Berry) for a situation that's obviously better & having to let that go, and a lot of hometown folks down to an extent.
At the end of the day, I believe Bell is a Buckeye. Urbz is completing phase two of building this Silver Bullets D - lock-up man to man corners & ball hawk safeties. All these kids have ball skills - and couple them with the new blood coming in on the D line along with Spence, Washington, & Co. in their second year is coming to be something to see!
I like how everyone is calling them predictions. They aren't predictions if you constantly change it . One day it's OSU, the next day it's UT, the next day it's OSU again, and so on. I understand things change daily with these kids, but let's stop calling them predictions...let's called them guesses from here on out. Predictions are something you stand behind firmly...where as if you're just guessing, you have room for error. I know it's just semantics...I just get irritated seeing someone like Mike Farrell constantly changing his "prediction".
You are correct. They aren't so much as predictions as guesses, however, they may keep changing due to something new they hear or something like that. I don't agree with a lot of their predictions but how the reason them is kinda interesting to me.

text: Has anybody bought Caterina Lichtenberg 's Homespun Tape DVD or downloaded it? If so could they give a breakdown of what's on there please' There's a few excerpts on Youtube but not enough to show what's what. Homespun doesn't give any details at all. It would be interesting to hear what complete tunes she teaches and how advanced or otherwise the DVD is. I'm an intermediarish player so would it be a valuable acquisition for me (I don't actually play that much classical stuff, I admit, but I am interested in finding out more)?

I-90 Open Wall to Chamberlain Eastbound I-90 Travelers Asked To Stay Put
PIERRE, S.D. – South Dakota Department of Transportation
officials announce the section of Interstate 90 between Wall and Chamberlain is now open.
Interstate 90 between Chamberlain and Mitchell remains closed and officials say it is unlikely to be reopened yet today based on the
available forecast.
Motorists who are traveling east are asked to stay where they are until crews are able to open I-90 completely.
The National Weather Service has said this storm will continue to intensify in eastern South Dakota and along the I-29 corridor bringing freezing rain, heavy snow, and gusty winds.
Travel conditions are anticipated to deteriorate in that area and No-Travel advisories and additional road closures may be necessary, especially during the overnight hours.
Snow-packed and icy roadways, along with blowing and drifting snow, continue to create dangerous driving conditions across much of the state and motorists are being asked to drive with extreme caution and travel only when necessary.
Travelers are encouraged to visit www.safetravelusa.com/sd or call 511 to check the latest road conditions and travel advisories.

Emmanuel Poutot-NojaroffCassidian has developed a new-generation Convoy Protection Jammer that significantly enhances the protection of vehicle convoys against attacks by radio-controlled improvised explosive devices (RCIEDs). The Vehicle Protection Jammer uses the ultra-fast SMART Responsive Jamming Technology developed by Cassidian to substantially enhance protection compared to conventional systems. It detects and classifies radio signals in the 20 MHz to 6 GHz frequency range used to detonate roadside bombs. After detection and classification, it transmits real-time jamming signals, which precisely match the hostile frequency band, thus interrupting the connection between assassin and bomb. Thanks to new digital receiver and signal processing technologies, the system can achieve reaction times of well below a millisecond. Up to 1.5 million threat signals on all common frequency bands can thus be detected and jammed each second.


text: Ask any weathered sailor that has salted the sea with his own sweat and tears and he can relay you the folklore behind the mystical Flying Dutchman. For several centuries many tales have floated around about the ghostly Dutch captain and his ship. Determined to forge through fierce weather, the captain cursed the heavens and tempted the seas, and in return he and his ship were damned to never make land, sailing the seas forever. While definitely not damned, soulless ghosts, this bike and its captain, Hieub Okker, do have something in common with the fabled Flying Dutchman, they have done plenty of wandering together creating their own stories. Originally hailing from Holland, Hieub picked up the '70 FLH back in 1991 and commenced piloting the steed in just about any direction the wind would take them. From desolate backroads of the Netherlands to the sunny coastline of the South of France, and traversing the scenic mountain ranges of Spain, De Vliegende Hollander (Dutch for the Flying Dutchman) and Hieub have covered more miles together than most people and their bikes will ever see. A little bit of old meets new. ACME used high-performance Ohlin's coil-over shocks and kept the juice drum in the rear. A little bit of old meets new. ACME used high-performance Ohlin's coil-over shocks and kep In fact it was when Hieub migrated west across the Atlantic and landed on the US East Coast that he felt it was time to refurbish the ol' Dutchman FLH. With nearly 40 years worth of road grime speckled up under its fenders and more than 70,000 miles on its odometer, Hieub and his bike rolled into the hometown of one of the largest and oldest motorcycle rallies, Laconia, New Hampshire. Befittingly, Laconia is also home to one particular custom shop, ACME Choppers, that is known for its ability to make old look new and new look old. Hieub quickly established a friendly rapport with the ACME crew and a plan was struck to freshen up the look and performance of the tired FLH with some modern components, but still keep the classic look and feel of the original bike. Essentially everything was stripped from the bike and the team started with an empty frame. Knowing Hieub's penchant for logging lots of miles, the suspension was updated with a set of '08 Road King fork tubes and sliders that were cut down about 3 inches to get a lower stance. Out back the stock cans were ditched in place of a set of high performance Ohlin's shocks with adjustable compression, rebound, and ride height. The spoke wheels were cleaned up and doused in black then remounted on the bike with new rubber. Tackling the sheetmetal was quite a heavy task as the ACME team fabricated a set of custom fenders that hugged the 5-inch-wide tires like second skin. Not only were the fenders a mess of work, but the crew also fabricated a set of custom stainless steel brackets for the front and integrated struts for the rear. Actually they had a hell of a time getting the rear fender to sit right. "It's hard to get a rear fender to sit in the correct position on a swingarm bike," stated ACME Choppers owner Wayne Ahlquist. The stock gas tank was utilized, however, the stock dash was tossed and in its place ACME had leather craftsman John Donahue create a handmade leather dash with a cig and cell holder. Next, a set of custom stainless steel handlebars were fabricated and mounted with Exile's internal throttle and clutch setup on each end. All the wiring was hidden in the nacelle and they used a marine-style start/run/stop ignition switch. ACME also modified the headlight nacelle, eliminated the cover on the top clamp and made an adapter block to use its own 1 1/2-inch risers. With the engine out of the bike, it was freshened up extensively and bumped up to 93ci with S&S flywheels, cylinders and pistons, and an Andrews AB grind cam. To give the old mill a little different look, ACME split and reshaped the rocker boxes. Once reassembled, they finished off the drivetrain with a JIMS five-speed trans for a four-speed frame, and a Tech Cycle 3-inch open belt primary. The engine was topped with a Goodson air cleaner and a custom 2-into-1 stainless steel exhaust with a unique fishtail tip that was all made in-house. One of the last things ACME did before the bike was stripped down for paint was add a set of Fabricator Kevin's Forward Control Adapters so they could bolt on a set of 2000 Softail forward controls for Hieub's feet to rest. After the Kandy Man Darrel Sergent laid down some brown base light brown panels and silver leaf details, the bike was reassembled and ready for its maiden voyage in its refreshed state. Hieub was pleasantly pleased with the outcome, as he jumped in the saddle and has been clicking down the miles ever since. If you're lucky enough, you just might catch a glimpse of the two Dutchmen sailing past you, as they roam far and wide. This dog bone bracket for the breather mounted off the backside of the transmission was also made in-house.

Bill T. Jones | Interview
The Tony-winning choreographer brings a triple bill of early-career, avant-garde works to the Dance Center of Columbia College.
Polarizing, Tony-winning choreographer Bill T. Jones goes back to the avant-garde for Body Against Body, two triple bills of works made between '77 and '82 with his partner and their dance company's cofounder, the late Arnie Zane. A documentary about Jones also hits town for a limited run.
What questions came up while restaging these works?
In Valley Cottage, for example, do the performers really have to be a couple? The Bill character is writing a letter to Arnie's character, years in the future…. So, if you have [young] people…who only know each other through this company, how do they project into the future?
In July, you told the Television Critics Association that TV dance competitions are "obscene."
Given…that everything can be commodified, [the question] is, Should everything be commodified?
Kartemquin released a documentary about you in April. What did you think?
Would I rather the title not be Bill T. Jones: A Good Man? …That's not what I wanted it to say, but that's what the filmmakers… decided to do. It's a handsome document and it's an important teaching document.
What does it teach?
Creation…is a near-sacred thing that you don't really control. It controls you.

this is a lovely humming beach for swimming .sunbathing or just family picnics in the summer months,good parking and toilets available.there was a icecream shop and im sure its still there.
Nice place to chill out in summer close to the city. Nice beach with good parking and a good cafe handy.
Cycling from Oriental Bay via Scorching Bay and around the bays is beautiful. I can't recommend this highly enough. Scorching bay itself has an excellent beach, nice calm, shallow waters, a kids park and a couple of cafes. It makes the perfect stop off point.
This is arguably the most beautiful beach in Wellington. Absolutely fabulous for kids and adults alike - but is a must for children. A great pity that the Chocolate Fish is no longer - but as life goes in circles - presumably a good quality cafe will emerge again
A great spot when there's northerlies blowing. S lovely sandy beach, unusually in Wellington as many are rocky. There's a great cafe down the road, a play area and car parking.

Former Burnaby Jr. Laker Garrett Billings had a Mann Cup to remember, but his team came home empty-handed.
The Langley Thunder sniper led all scorers with seven goals and 25 assists for 32 points in the six-game series, but his team lost the best-of-seven in six games to the powerhouse Peterborough Lakers.
"Obviously we're disappointed with our finish," Billings said.
"We thought we had a few chances to win but that's what happens when you are playing a team as deep as Peterborough."
After scoring 21 points in the first three games of the series - two of them Langley wins - Billings had a quieter final three games, notching 11 points in the final three games.
The Thunder took the first two games of the series, 13-12 on Sept. 7 and 15-14 in overtime on Sept. 9, before losing the final four games.
Game 3's 14-10 loss on Sept. 10 was followed by a heartbreaking 9-8 loss on Sept. 12, a 9-5 loss on Sept. 14 and the clinching 14-8 Peterborough victory on Sept. 15.
The Lakers were led by superstar performances from John Grant Jr., who had 16 goals and 15 assists in the series, and Shawn Evans, who also had 31 points, on the strength of seven goals and 24 assists.
Billings often set up teammate former New Westminster Salmonbellie Athan Iannucci, who finished the series with 15 goals and 13 assists.
Western Lacrosse Association commissioner Casey Cook couldn't attend the final in person, but watched all the games via webcast.
Cook said the Thunder had chances to win in the final four games, including the final two games, where the Thunder took early 4-0 and 3-0 leads, only to have the Lakers come back in force with seven- and six-goal second periods
"The Thunder just got themselves into an unfortunate situation where they got outplayed in the second half of the game and that cost them," said Cook. "They got off to a great start, but when the Lakers got going, the Thunder were in trouble."
Cook knows how hard it is for Western teams to go out East and win the Mann Cup, having been the general manager of the 1986 Salmonbellies, the last team to accomplish the feat.
"When you go out and have to play as many as seven games in nine days, it's difficult," said Cook. "You're sleeping in hotels, you're not doing your regular routine, it's hard."
The Thunder defence has been led by a couple of former New Westminster Jr. Salmobellies, Brett Mydske and Matt MacGrotty, while former Burnaby Jr. Laker goalie Brodie MacDonald played solidly in the Thunder net.
The bigger story from the Mann Cup may be the brouhaha that ensued when the two head coaches, Jamie Batley of Peterborough and Rod Jensen of Langley, were suspended from Game 5.
According to a Canadian Lacrosse Association press release, "the suspensions are in relation to conduct off the floor of play."
Further on in the press release, the association noted that the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sports (CCES) had conducted drug testing at the Mann Cup, but the suspensions "are not the outcome of player testing results."
Cook confirmed that the suspensions related to the coaches expressing concern with the drug testing procedures.
"We were informed four days ahead of (the start of the Mann Cup) and we relayed that information immediately to the teams," said Cook. "What wasn't given was the protocols around the testing and that was what was questioned. ... We just think giving notice only four days ahead, with little or no protocols, was a bit crazy."
Cook said the CCES typically takes three to six weeks to process the results of its testing and the centre does have significant power.
"Yes, the CCES can take away titles," said Cook. "Certainly, there are allowances for that if they find irregularities in testing."
The Record contacted Melissa McKenzie, executive director of the Canadian Lacrosse Association, for comment on the drug testing procedures and protocols and the suspensions handed down to the coaches.
"This is a disciplinary issue so we cannot make any further comment," said McKenzie. "The CLA has its own code of conduct and now that we're going through a disciplinary process, we will not be offering further comment at this time. ... I also cannot comment on the CCES process."

Same comments apply as for the Travel Towel. However in addition, this item was completely broken and in bits when I opened the package. It had not been wrapped separately to protect it in any way which I found quite bizarre. I have returned the item in the condition in which it was received.
30/05/2013 17:33:43
Simple to use and hardy-looking which is ideal obviously for camping. Quite bright too. Uses AA batteries and even came with some already in it. Cant wait to use it for Rockness next week!
23/08/2013 11:09:49
great little lantern, in the sale a great price, easy to use, hardwearing plastic, comes with 4x AA batteries - brilliant and very bright - good enough for inside tent - with hanging hook
25/08/2013 09:05:46
Can be used as a tabletop lamp or by moving the top shade and attaching to the base of the battery box, as a hanging tent or BBQ brolly lamp. waterproof for general outdoor use.
03/08/2013 15:27:10
The lantern gave out limited light which was ok for background lighting but not suitable to read by. The hanging hook was useful for hanging it from the frame of the tent.
01/07/2013 09:02:04
Not tried this out yet but camping at the weekend so will soon find out. It's small and compact and hopefully will be powerful enough
30/09/2013 20:53:31
Just what was needed during the night in tent. Hook on the top is ideal to hang it from the tent roof allowing light to shine around

Already have two of these and they are very child friendly (Cubs are no that careful with things!) and very much value for money.

would much prefer it without the 'mountain warehouse' logo as it is quite an elegent, almost classic-looking piece of kit.

Question by su 29 · Apr 13 '11 at 04:25 PM · radiation food-safety
According to the April 7 report from CRIIRAD in France, the amount of contamination from Fukushima fallout is no longer negligable in Europe. North American fallout levels are even higher (10x's higher on the west coast of california where a lot of our food/produce is grown). CRIIRAD is telling children, pregnant and breastfeeding women in Europe to avoid fresh milk, soft cheeses, leafy vegetables and rainwater. Several north american cities have reported milk and rainwater that exceed established safe limits of radioactive contamination. seaweed on the west coast is already showing substantial levels of contamination.
What steps are you taking to ensure your food safety?

The contaminant of concern according to CRIIRAD is Iodine 131. I131 has a half-life of 8.02 days. The article here http://www.euractiv.com/en/health/radiation-risks-fukushima-longer-negligible-news-503947 discusses level of a risky dose as:
"According to the directive, the impact of nuclear activity can be considered negligible if doses of radiation do not exceed ten micro sieverts (mSv) per year. Beyond this value, possible measures should be considered to reduce exposure, it says.
While radioactive iodine-131 is mostly present in the air in the form of gas, CRIIRAD notes that in the case of the Fukushima fallout, the main issue is to limit ingestion of iodine-131.
CRIIRAD notes that the amount of iodine-131 capable of delivering a dose of 10 mSv varies greatly depending on the age of consumers. Children up to two years old are the most vulnerable and ingestion of 50 becquerel (Bq) is enough to deliver to the body a dose of 10 mSv, according to the institute.
If the foods (leafy vegetables, milk etc.) contain between one and 10 Bq per kg or more, it is possible that the reference level of 10 mSv may be exceeded within two to three weeks, the institute added.
Radioactive iodine-131 values measured by the French Institute for Radiological Protection and Nuclear Safety (IRSN) in recent days show the following, varying levels of contamination: 0.08 Bq/kg in salad, spinach and leeks in Aix-en-Provence, 0.17 Bq per litre in milk in Lourdes and 2.1 Bq per litre in goats milk in Clansayes."
So in summation: 10mSv/year is bad
50 bq can deliver a body dose of 10 mSv in children
1-10 bq/kg food can deliver the reference value of 10 mSv (thats a huge range 1-10)
It is important to note that the relationship between bequerels and sieverts is extrememly hard to understand - here's some info (light reading): http://www.radiation-scott.org/radsource/2-0.htm
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Becquerel (side note I HATE citing wikipedia but it's the best non-textbook resource for a quick look - please do not quote wiki as it is not properly peer reviewed!)
You can honestly spend hours, days, years, a lifetime coming to understand radioactivity - and the truth as I believe it is that there are not that many people out there that truly understand how radioactive materials affect our world and affect us.
Be cautious and well informed. Pay attention to the news reports - but ALWAYS read the accompanying documentation and try to tease out the important tidbits of info.
Sorry that this isn't super clear - but thats kind of the point. The news media can barely get straight-forward information correct - so please read carefully and research often.
Bree, you need to correctly distinguish between μSv (microsieverts) and mSv (millisieverts). Based on your answer, you are not aware of the difference, and as a result your quantitative results are all off by a factor of 1000. DOSE PER UNIT INTAKE FACTOR (Sv/Bq) varies between 10^-6 to 10^-8 depending on the radionuclide. 10^-6 = μ (micro).
So its 1000s of Bq that are worth worrying about, not so much small numbers of Bq.
Even so, the huge levels found in seaweed 50 km from the site is quite scary.

i live in japan, though quite far from fukushima, and, frankly, i do nothing: : : avoiding what can be realistically avoided (veg oils, chemicals, wheat, franken-sugars, processed food-like substances, etc.) already already takes a lot of effort to worry about something that i personally can do nothing about
Answer by Wayne Earl 21 · Apr 13 '11 at 10:50 PM
I do nothing - because there's nothing to do, and nothing to be concerned of. Would suggest investigating actual science, rather then depending on the news for anything close to reality.
Answer by tartare 5148 · Apr 13 '11 at 05:35 PM
speaking of book long posts, Nora Gedgaudas has a very long post about the subject, particularly about supplementing with iodine pills (short version: be careful about doind this, it could easily lead to more problems) and recent radioactivity concerns here:
very unfortunate that the spent rods at the Japanese plant were kept there in pools instead of in casks (like they are required to be in Germany). Incidentally, the US does not require spent fuel rods to be kept in specially designed casks either. After all, that would be more expensive for the poor power companies.

I am trying to only buy fresh produce grown in less radioactive contaminated areas such as south and Central America. My daughter and I are switching to tropical fruit. Also we are especially avoiding milk and wheat products and leafy green vegetables unless hydroponically grown.

Eat locally if possible?
Answer by Ken 5 1 · Jun 29 '11 at 08:07 AM
It seems to me that although computing Sv from Bq is nontrivial, it would be nice to find a dosage calculator that does this for ingestion of specific material. For example, if I ingest 1000 Bq of 137Cs, I should know the Sv dosage. Unfortunately I can't seem to find such a calculator.
Answer by Ken 5 1 · Jun 29 '11 at 09:36 AM
Hmm, I found this: https://apps.who.int/fsf/Codex/GuidelineLevelsforRadionuclidesinFoods.pdf
According to this, for 131I, 134Cs, 137Cs, the rough conversion factor from consumed becquerels to sieverts is 10^-8.
So eating 0.1 Kg snack of anchovies from the 1,280 Bq/Kg (total of 131I, 134Cs, 137Cs) sample found by Greenpeace offshore Nakoso port (about 50Km from ground zero) would give you a 1.28 μSv dose.
I'm guessing that this "conversion factor" is very rough, but maybe it gives some kind of indication of the order of magnitude.
So we are talking about a dental xray. I personally would not worry about a one time dosage of that magnitude, though I don't like anchovies.
Be sure to know the difference between μSv (microsieverts) and mSv (millisieverts). You can think of μSv as relevant on the order of hours or days; mSv as relevant to years; and Sv as really really bad.
On the other hand, finding fish at these levels outside of 50km completely invalidates the assertion that dilution renders the radiation negligible. It's only one order of magnitude below where I would not want to think about eating it.
Also, Greenpeace found seaweed at over 127,000 Bq/kg over 50km from the site. That's quite a bit more scary, because just 0.1 kg of this seaweed gives you a 0.12 mSv dose. That won't kill you, at least not right away, but IMO it's probably a good idea to steer clear of the mSv range at the dinner table.
Which is too bad because I really like sushi.
Answer by ChenZhen 1571 · Jun 29 '11 at 10:47 AM
I won't buy Japanese green tea anymore, giving up coffee may have to wait, haha. Although radioactive green tea may still be healthier than the Chinese crap with all their recent food scandals, which is a shame 'cause tastewise I prefer Chinese tea...
I don't sweat the rest, the tamari soy sauce I get is made in Austria and when I eat sushi I only eat salmon which mainly comes from fish farms in Northern Europe anyways (yummy...)
I'm glad Japanese porn is still safe :D (just joking ;))

Can't claim it's "exceptional" food, but for a group that obviously has means, Charlie Palmer Steak is walking distance from the hotel, has a great view of the Capitol at night, a nice wine list and is open Mondays. They're also used to handling large parties, as they're a big lobbyist/politico schmoozing destination.Hello everyone,
I have a group I am bringing to DC for a meeting in the Fall. The first evening they will dine at the Inn at Little Washington.
The second evening they will be dining in/around the Capital Hill area as they will be staying at the the Phoenix Park Hotel. We will be around 25 people and have had a long day. I think they would like something/place casual, relaxing and of course exceptional food.
Oh and the rub is this is on a Monday. But I might be able to book it for a group...
Thanks savvy ones!!
Bistro Bis is even closer to hand, literally around the corner, though you'd want to check that they could handle your party all at once.

Forums >Off the Beaten Path>What's the most amount of money you've spent on an app?
Slower than you
The only apps I've gotten have been free. There are some pretty pricey ones out there, though. So, what's the most amount of money you've spent on an app? Which app? Was it worth it?
"Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man" - The Dude
Upcoming races: AthHalf: 10/20
Needs more cowbell!
Zombies! Run was $8 when I bought it...everything else was free or $1. Looking at some $$ autism therapy apps for the rugrat on our iPad.

✓ 1st olympic distance duathlon - AG 2nd!!
• 1st Iceman Cometh mtn bike race - no MTB in '13
✓ Half Fanatic
✓ punch Type 1 in the junk
$9.99 on a geocaching app.
Best app purchase I've ever made.
Proboscis Colossus
I went ahead and threw down $19.99 (or whatever it was) for Pages. I wouldn't say it's paid for itself at this point, but I don't feel like I threw that money down the drain, either. I like the iCloud integration, and since I have a bluetooth keyboard for the iPad, it's nice to be able to work with my documents on the road without digging out a laptop.
MTA: I also bought Zombies, Run! when it was under $10. Haven't gotten as much use out of that one, mainly because I didn't feel like figuring out how to make it fit into my Pfitz training cycle. Race is this Sunday, though, so I may play with it more in the interim until the next cycle.
delicate flower
Spent five bucks on Grand Theft Auto Vice City for my tablet yesterday only to find out the game isn't ready yet. Why put the damn game in the app store if it's not ready!? Cockbites.
I paid $19.99 for a hunting GPS map app that showed land ownership in different colors. Blue shade = state land, yellow shade = BLM, green shade = national forest, no shade = private land, etc.
It worked about a month and then they quit supporting it.
Not my best purchase.
Every app since then has been free.
Age: 45 Weight: 200 Height: 6'2" (Goal weight 200)
2013 Goal #1 - Sub 4 hour First Marathon - 3:48:09 at the Flying Pig 5/5/13!
2013 Goal #2 - Run my age in 10K. 44:51 on 9/14/13!
Man, that would be handy if they'd supported it.
Regular ass person
This is the only reason I'm considering getting an iPad. I need to be able to use it to access, edit and develop documents I've worked on while I'm travelling for business and it's lighter and more portable than my netbook.
It's good to know that it was a worthwhile investment for you.
12-week layoff
I bought Pages too...I have an iPad, and my work computer is a PC. With the wireless computer, I can get work done in my classroom while sitting in the front of the room at my desk (revolutionary!) and just convert it to a PDF and save it to Dropbox, so it's on my PC.
Not my usual look
$3.99 for gStrings, a music tuner app (Android). The free, ad-supported version was so good that I just wanted to support the developer. A lot like RA.
Well at least someone here is making relevance to the subject.
Awesome. That's exactly what I need to be able to do. And you haven't experienced any glitches or problems using it?
There's probably a level in GTA where you rip off rubes who buy worthless apps. And then kill some hookers with an RPG.
The process is the goal.
Men heap together the mistakes of their lives, and create a monster they call Destiny.
$40 for Skysafari Pro, an iPad astronomy app. I would happily have paid double that as its amazing (if you are an astronomy geek).

Street crews in Wausau are mixing up a special potion to keep the pavement safe. It's called brine and it allows crews to save 30 percent of the salt they would use on the roads.
The brine has been used in Wausau for the last ten years.
To make the brine, salt is thrown into the brine machine, water is added, the mixture then circulates until it gets to the right percentage, and it's then pumped into storage tanks directly behind it.
"In a typical season where we might use 3,000 tons of salt, if we use brine, we're going to save an awful lot of money on the amount of salt that gets spread," says Don Skare, Wausau Street Superintendent.
A ton of salt costs about $64 while a gallon of brine rings in at about 4 to 6 cents.
