Ordinarily I am not a big fan of chain restaurants. They just don't seem to have that personal, individual feel you get from a locally owned place.
At first blush, Baker Street Pub and Grill seems to avoid that pitfall. It is by no means small, and you know that the owner will not be around to your table to visit with you about your meal any time soon, but all the same, it just didn't seem to have that corporate feel as much as so many places do.
We showed up on a Monday night, and it was surprisingly busy. A patio area greets you as you first approach, and it was packed this night.
All seats (probably 45-50) were occupied, including a fire pit table with a group of 15 or so telling jokes, drinking Guinness and generally having a good time. It is actually deceptively small from the outside. The only down side we could see was that it overlooks the busiest street in the northern hemisphere -- Memorial Ave. at about 68th St.
As we waited for our Triple Dipper, a sampler of queso, artichoke and spinach dip, and house made salsa with a basket of tortilla chips for dipping, there was plenty of visual stimulation. The place is full of things to look at.
The hit of the three dips for us was the artichoke/spinach dip. Warm, creamy and full of chopped "artis," it was really good.
First runner up was the salsa. Finely chopped tomatoes, almost to the point of crushed, lots of fresh flavors and seasoning with a little bit of back bite, it was refreshing. Next on the list was the queso. It was just OK, until we stirred some of the salsa in with it, and it became tasty and appealing at that point. And in last place, unfortunately, were the chips. They seemed to be made in house, but unfortunately they were stale.
I have mentioned at other times that with Tulsa's humidity, you just can't fry chips more than a few hours ahead or they lose their crispness very quickly. The whole deal was $7.99. A fair price for the amount we received, if only the chips had been crispier.
Based on our server's recommendation, I ordered the fish and chips. She claimed it was one of the two best sellers on the menu, with the Guinness Beef Stew being the other, and I always look for a nod toward the most popular items from the server.
They generally know what's best and if the management is on the ball, everything on the menu has been sampled to all the service staff for exactly this reason.
Flaky white cod, dipped in a light beer batter and flash fried, it was crispy and really tasty. The fish stayed hot the entire time I was eating it. I know where I'm going when I get a craving for fish and chips again.
It was served simply with seasoned French fries, lemon wedges and homemade tartar sauce that had an excellent tang and an "herby" undertone. I'll offer one caveat at this point: I ordered the regular dinner for $9.99, and it came with two large pieces of fish.
Unless you are a huge eater, the half order which offers one piece of fish is plenty for most appetites, and at $7.99, it's a bargain.
My wife chose a lighter fare: The chicken, almond and grape salad. It was delicious as it contained nicely toasted almonds, sweet ruby grapes and tender chicken.
Other options in the salad category included all of the standards; nothing of particular creative note, but it is just meant to be pub food after all.
For a few extra dollars, you can add chicken, salmon, tuna or shrimp to any of them, but I wasn't sure why anyone would want to. All the listed entrée salads already have meat on them, but I guess you never know.
The menu at Baker Street is varied to the point of being all over the map with everything from a selection of sliders to grilled tuna or salmon, sandwiches and salads, and entrees ranging from Chicken Alfredo Pasta, Bangers and Mash, Mum's Meatloaf and others.
A variety of soups and a huge selection of appetizers as well round it out to meet anyone's needs. With the exception of the London Platter, a combo of fish and shrimp, and a fried shrimp platter, nothing on the entrée section is over $8.99. These are not portions for shy eaters, either. It's a good value.
Grilled items range from $8.99 for grilled chicken to $16.99 for a rib-eye steak with onion straws, tuna and salmon come in at $10.99, and all the grilled items come with your choice of two side dishes. A few notables are the sautéed red bliss potatoes, garlic mashers and brown sugar baked beans.
The appetizer selection is pretty extensive, and considering that Baker Street is open nightly till 2am, this is the perfect part of the menu for them to focus their energies on.
Choose from wings, calamari, Scotch eggs, a variety of dips, baskets such as jalapeno poppers, fish fingers and chicken strips, hot kettle chips and beer battered onion rings. Additionally sandwiches and sliders round out the options. A special mention about Scotch Eggs: This is a hard-boiled egg encased in sausage, then breaded and deep fried golden and crispy. Served with spicy mustard and pickle relish, this is awesome bar food.
I remember as a young prep cook having to make hundreds of these things, and I hated it. They are time consuming and labor intensive. But now that all I have to do is eat 'em? I love the little guys.
Appetizers hover in the $5 to $9 range, with a couple of sizes of wing platters a bit higher. Additionally, they offer several different sampler platters of apps, which take a lot of the indecision out of the equation.
We had a great server that took the time to explain, answer questions and generally make us feel like valued customers. All the service personnel were hustling, obviously well-trained, and well supervised in addition. The manager was on the floor at all times, and keeping a close eye on everybody.
Our waitress's stock went up a few more points when she recommended the seasonal cobbler of the day. It was peach, and it was fantastic. Hot from the oven, (the bowl was hot to the touch), topped with a big scoop of creamy, rich vanilla ice cream, then drizzled with caramel sauce, this dessert was really, really good. It had a nice crumbly, streusel type topping, and although it could have been helped a bit by a few more peaches, that was not a major shortcoming. At $2.99, this dessert was an incredible deal.
High ceilings, plenty of space and a variety of seating from booths to pub tables to English-style islands with bar stools for singles and groups, not to mention a huge bar in the middle of the room make Baker Street a unique and interesting place to be.
Knick knacks, memorabilia, posters and pictures adorn every empty space available, even in the hallways and rest rooms and I mean all the way to the ceiling. I would love the job of looking for and buying all that stuff for the company. There is some really interesting, fun stuff to look at.
A big part of the late-night attraction to Baker Street is the music and entertainment calendar. It's enough of a variety and steady influx of artists that the website has a band and event calendar listing with everything from karaoke nights with Jules to bands such as Laron Simpson and the Captain Obvious Band, Dante and the Hawks, Travis Kidd, Crossland Acoustics, Uninvited Guest and more.

Hang tight!
Recipe by MARBALET
"This is a 3 layer pie: the bottom crust, a creamy cheesecake-like layer, and a delicious pecan pie layer on top. Warning: this is very rich, and definitely NOT diet food. Especially good with a dollop of whipped cream. It might keep up to a week in the fridge, but it's never lasted that long at our house! Dark chocolate pieces may be used in place of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Instead of chopped pecans, trying arranging pecan halves in an eye-pleasing manner on top of pie."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 (9 inch) deep dish pie crust
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup white sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1/4 cup white sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 1/4 cups chopped pecans
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
This recipe was delicious. I followed the directions and I made some changes to the ingredients that were required, it still turned out great. I omitted the chocolate chips and it was AWESOME!
I had this pie in the oven for a total of 60 minutes and it still did not set. Every time I would take it out, thinking it was done, it would still be runny. I thought the flavors were good, but my husband said it was ruined with the chocolate chips. We will stick with traditional pecan pies.

this is a GREAT dessert recipe. i made it and my boyfriend couldn't believe it was homemade. it was my first true baking experience and a complete success. i had requests from friends and family to make another and another. my mother even requested one for her birthday instead of a cake. a definite try for holidays or special occasions!
This is defreakinglicious!! Rich, it is, but really good! I made this for Thanksgiving dinner along with 2 pumpkin pies. This was a winner. The only problem I had was the filling over flowed and really made a mess. I used a 9" deep dish crust as stated. This is why I rated this with 4 stars. For taste it has earned 5 stars! I came across this recipe the day before Thanksgiving and just had to try it. Will make it again but will use an even bigger pie plate.
This pie was really good. My husband ate the whole pie by himself. It's also very good with butter scotch chips. I recomend it to anyone who likes pecan pie and cheese cake.
This pie is worth the effort and calories! Very rich. I subsituted almond extract for vanilla, as I often do in recipes.
This is absolutely fabulous. I made it for Thanksgiving and everyone raved about it. It will definitely be served on many special occasions in our home.
Every time I take this pie to a social function. I always get great remarks about how delicious this pie tastes!Debbie

HAI Convertable Ceramic Flat Iron - 1 1/4"
ChicoMexicoSuckedIt was the worst product I have ever used. I hate it. I was very disapionted also.posted Jul 23, 2004Link to this post
AnonEdmonton, Alberta, CanadaBest Money I've Spent In Years.I have thick, color treated, wavy hair and I have tried everything. My hair was starting to get so damaged from the other "ceramic" flat iron I purchased a few months ago - even the color was getting stripped. I received my HAI a few days ago and my hair is transformed! It is now stick straight and incredibly shiny. I have had no color loss problems - it just looks healthy and glossy. It was between the HAI and the CHI for me - everyone told me to go with the HAI and I am soooo happy I did. Love it!!!!posted Jul 21, 2004Link to this post
MicheleCanadaBetter Than Anything So Far.Hi!I love this iron! I have used the saphire, kenta, chi and this one - and it is way better than all the other ones. I have very curly hair and its stick straight, when i tell people its curly they refuse to believe me. It stays staright when i go clubbing or in the humidity, too!!! It takes me 10 minutes to straighten and it heats up so quickly. I love how Folica delivered the product in 2 days - and I live in Canada!! This is the best product, i love it. And i also use it to make my hair wavy, its amazing!!!!posted Jul 21, 2004Link to this post
CricketFive Stars... So FarI ordered this flatiron on Mon. evening and I got it Wed, so Folica was great getting it to me quickly. My sister has has the Hai Two, and I hesistated getting it because it was a bit more. I also kinda hesistated getting this one because it has such a narrower plate than the Hai Two. However, this turned out to be a good thing- it gets my hair just as straight (and thats very very straight) and its easier to handle as well since its a bit smaller- with my sisters I every so often would singe my ears, but this one is nice and easy to work with. My hair comes out really well- smooth and straight.I just hope it lasts.posted Jul 15, 2004Link to this post
JackieSF, CAGreat For Natural, Super Curly Hair!This flat iron works great. I have used my other iron (metal plated) before this new purchase and I could see ho it was damaging my hair over time. I have super tight, Puerto Rican curls. I have tried just about everything as well. My tips:I straighten 1-2 times a week. I let my hair dry naturally overnight using a good conditioner (leaving some in). In the morning, I brush/comb out small sections and use a little but of Baby Oil ( Iknow, sounds weird, but someone else with curly hair told me to try it as a tip and it totally works) and straighten away! I have a head of hair and can do it in about 20 mins max. Of course, spending more time will make it perfectly straight. I only hope that my iron lasts a long time; even if it doesnt, I would probably buy another really quickly! Try it out.....you will be amazed!posted Jul 12, 2004Link to this post
HannaFloridaFinally!I have been searching for something to straighten my very thick, curly hair for nearly a decade- far more than half of my life- and not once have I had this much success with a product that I could use easily at home.The first time I used the Hai, I have to admit I was a bit disappointed. I tried to use it on my hair after all I had done was wash it and let it dry on some velcro rollers. The Hai did straighten my hair, but it took 3 or 4 swipes over each piece to get them straight. However, the fact that my hair stayed stick straight after about 4 days of working and some very humid Florida weather convinced me that the Hai was worth trying again. Ive found that if you blow dry the curls out of you hair first, even if it still looks like a ratty, damaged mess (like my hair), the Hai will work ten times better than if you try to get the tough little curls out and get it stick straight all at once. My hair is naturally dry, and even dryer after several coloring experiments, so Im very diligent about using moisture masks each week, especially when using my Hai. The treatment that actually works best with the Hai is just to let your hair sit with some olive oil in it once every couple weeks. This puts enough oil back into my hair to weigh it down and let the Hai really get it stick straight. Just run the Hai over very small sections of hair and maybe wear a knit cap or something over your head to sleep that night so your hair stays flat. It takes me about an hour once a week to straighten my hair, but I am extremely clumsy and not very good at styling.Now my hair is practically worry-free. Its as straight as Avril Lavignes and seems to be getting healthier by the day. If youre like me and have spent hundreds of dollars on chemical straightening and endless amounts on worthless hair products, please do yourself a favor and get the Hai. No ones (and I mean NO ONES) hair is as damaged as mine, so if the Hai is ok for me it will be ok for you, too.The incredible reviews on this board convinced me to buy the Hai. If youre thinking about buying it- just do it, lol.posted Jul 1, 2004Link to this post
SarahNew YorkFinally!!!I have had lots of straighteners, but this one is by far the best. Its so hard to control my hair, but this one works so well and so fast! Highly recommended!!!posted Jul 1, 2004Link to this post
RachelIllinoisCan't Live Without ItI received this product for my 22nd birthday, and I have to say that it is the best. I have used flat irons before on my hair, and I love this one because it heats up fast and my hair is a lot softer. I totally can see a change. I feel and look a whole better. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!posted Jun 23, 2004Link to this post
KristaKentuckyExcellent!I ordered this iron on Saturday and received it on Thursday afternoon. I went from cury hair to shiny, silky, straight in minutes! I totally recommend this product!posted Jun 18, 2004Link to this post
DarbiNJAll I Can Say Is....awesome!!!!I just got mine yesterday and tried it lastnight. My hair is long and thick, it took me about 20 minutes to do and it is pin straight. I love this iron!!

Designed by Annette Hinterwirth, TATAMI is an elegant addition to the DEDON concept of the Outdoor Living Room. A sophisticated accessory, originally created for Hinterwirth's City Camp collection of covered daybeds and swings, TATAMI is also available separately. Lightweight, elegant and ultra-comfortable, it's perfect for packing up and carrying to the beach.
Annette Hinterwirth
Annette Hinterwirth was born and raised in Gmunden, Austria. A self-taught designer, she graduated in business administration before widening her design knowledge with classes at the Technical University of Vienna and UCLA in Los Angeles. Developing a passion for set design, Annette worked in the art departments of such Hollywood productions as Seven Years in Tibet and Project Peace. Then, feeling the pull of New York, she started designing sets for fashion shoots and was soon collaborating with some of the world's most renowned photographers, including Terry Richardson, Steven Klein, among others. Annette's work frequently appeared in the pages of Vogue, i-D, Dazed and Marie Claire, among other magazines, and in the advertising of numerous international fashion, luxury and lifestyle brands.
Even as she pursued her career as a photo set designer, Annette began creating furniture and lighting of her own on the side. International design stores quickly picked up the work.
Since then, Annette has collaborated with Swarovski, designed for Minotti and Neue Wiener Werkstätten, created a limited edition powerboat and just completed her first architectural project.
In fall of 2011, DEDON presented Annette's first foray into outdoor furniture — and the company's first collaboration with a woman designer.

Engagement, Impact and Influence Programme
Practice No. 1277
Last modified: 24/06/2011 10:46:44
Institution: University of York, University of york
There is an increased expectation from funders of research on researchers to consider the wider implications of their research on society, culture and the economy. This is reflected in the addition of 'pathways to impact' documents in grant applications. So too, the Vitae RDF explicitly makes reference to the need to up skill researchers in the area of engagement, influence and impact. This includes, working with others, communication and dissemination and KT and impact.
The University of York has piloted a new skills training programme for PhD students and staff which ran November 10 - July 11. This included training in:
Enterprise and knowledge transfer - 'the research and innovation programme' - 8 part series of business planning workshops, aimed specifically at commercialisation of research and industrial engagement. the sessions were 2 hours in duration and covered- Knowledge Transfer, IP, business models for research innovation, Market analysis, financial awareness, business planning and pitching to industry.
Also, the Enterprising Researcher residential programme - 2.5 day intensive school for PGRs and postdocs.
Policy and Practice - Sessions included: Science into Policy - 2 hour session on working in the social sciences and translating research to policy makers. Also includes evidence led policy making advice. Sessions on communicating your research to lay audiences also covered aspects of communicating to policy makers.
Public Engagement - The University is working closely with the NCCPE to pilot a training programme in PE - also, sessions have run on public engagement and communicating research to different audiences.
Impact - specifically around pathways to impact, the programme offered 4 central staff sessions for cognate groups of departments broadly based around research council area, on pathways to impact.
The programme also offered 4 central PhD sessions on research with impact, designed to allow researchers to consider impact from the outset of their research careers.
The sessions are 2.5 hours in duration and pose the following questions:
1. Who will benefit from your research?
2. How will they beneift?
3. What will you do in order to ensure they have the opportunity to benefit.
The sessions are interactive, allowing participants to work in groups on a specific research idea, and build a pathway to impact- they also have the chance to view example pathways and plans, and also to review their colleagues. Where possible, academic input is also used.
Sessions on impact are also being run in the departments as part of grat writing programmes and as bespoke one off courses. Such courses have mainly been for staff in Sociology, Education, Computer Science, Arts, Politics and psychology.
Coaching and one to one support around writing pathways to impact is also offered as part of the programme.

The Wrong Deficit
Deficit fever has swept through our capital, and President Obama has finally caught it. However, his speech is focusing on the wrong deficit. And that's because, quite sadly, our political culture is obsessed with the wrong deficit. Yes, the American people want to put our government's fiscal house in order. But, more than anything else, the American people want jobs. And it doesn't take an economist to understand that if we create more jobs, our nation's fiscal position will improve.
The jobs deficit in our nation is a crisis. The effective unemployment rate is still over 15 percent. McDonald's announces 50,000 new jobs, but these positions pay near-poverty wages. We will not win the future by flipping Big Macs. One company in China, Foxconn, which produces for Apple and other name brands, created more jobs last year than the entire American manufacturing economy. Manufacturing in America, which is doing better right now than most other sectors of the economy, is still 24 years away from regaining the 5.5 million factory jobs we lost over the last decade, assuming last month's pace of job creation can continue.
Congress and the Administration should be competing for the best jobs plan, right? Not at all. The modest investments of the Recovery Act are winding down. There seems to be no appetite for funding long-term investments in infrastructure, clean energy manufacturing, or basic and applied research that could be commercialized domestically. The tax debate is centered around everything except what type of tax reform can reward domestic production and employment.
We are in a post-recession and post-election haze, and it has clouded our vision about the truly important things. The debate on how to ride out the recession has been over for more than a year now, but the debate about how to rebuild a sustainable, balanced economy has not even begun.
Some smart takes on boosting jobs as a solution to our fiscal problems have popped up in the blogosphere, but they have failed to penetrate the center of the political debate. They should.
The formula is so simple that it seems too good to be true: job creation means more revenue for the Treasury and lower demand for public services. That lowers our budget deficit.
There's a lot that our government can do at no cost to taxpayers to support American job creation: lower the growth-sapping trade deficit, end China's manipulation of its currency, apply "Buy America" policies to more of our procurement, direct tax advantages to domestic production and away from shelters. But I haven't heard a peep from Republican leaders in Congress or the Administration about any of these initiatives, even though they all enjoy support from more than 80 percent of the American people--left, right and center.
Where's the outrage?
Believe it or not, I think it might come from the Republican presidential wannabes, who talk to real people every week. I'm not saying their prescriptions are ideal, or even sane in some cases, but they will at least get the conversation started. There is a reason beyond mere name recognition and the absurd "birther" issue that Donald Trump polls so well: he talks about China and jobs in an honest way that no leader in D.C. does. The conversation has to get started, but there is certainly a better way to finish it.
For now, the budget deficit reigns supreme. The President's speech today is just one more indication of how no one wants to be left out of the fiscal debate. It is a travesty that the wishes of the American people have been left out altogether. When the President ventures to Ohio or other swing states, he is sure to hear a different tune: show me the jobs.

Kucinich's NEED Act
While it does not necessarily answer the manufacturing issue, his proposal for the FED to be castrated and the Treasury to once again be the creator of our national currency (iow, replace Federal Reserve Notes with U.S. Notes) would generate money, backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. of A, that could be spent immediately on rebuilding our infrastructure. This would create millions (perhaps tens of millions) of new good paying (union?) jobs working on our roads, our bridges, etc. This in turn would generate new revenue for our domestic automakers, and even the transplants that employ plenty of Americans (in all of the Tiers of manufacturing).
This proposal by Rep Kucinich would almost single-handedly answer the problems our nation is facing right now. These new dollars could also be spent by our government to fully fund a single-payer system, thus ensuring equality in that area and freeing business from the burdensome costs placed on us all by the Insurance Corporations (who are Wall Street cretins just like the Banksters).
My 2% Solution...
2% Alternative Minimum Tax on Multi-National Corporations
2% Excise Tax on all finished goods entering US Ports.
2% Top Wealthy Americans return to Bush Era Tax Rates
2% Reduction in the Defense Budget
2% Salary reduction for all members of Congress... every year until micro-enterprise and manufacturing job levels return to 1970 levels and unemployment gets to 2%.
2% Federal tax on fast food to subsidize health insurance for these workers.
This is NOT a DEFICIT PROBLEM it's a revenue problem. (It may however be a deficit of Common Sense problem, or a deficit of math ability problem for members of congress...
First, Congress GAVE AWAY out nations tax revenue when they decided that "free trade" should be the law of the land. In the 50's excise taxes on imports were 40% of government budget. WalMart is cheap... too cheap. So cheap that we are all paying for the healthcare of their part-time employees.
Then Congress gave away our jobs (and the tax revenue derived from those jobs) when they voted for NAFTA, CAFTA... and so on.
Then Congress took away all the rules that prevented Wall Street from stealing Americans blind. Now the jobs that are left are all minimum wage.... reducing tax revenue again.
Then Congress decided that repealing the Bush tax cuts was too harsh on those that stole everything from middle class Americans...
Then Congress and President Obama decided that the creeps need NOT go to jail.
Now the GOP wants to shrink the deficit THEY CREATED by taking my Mothers Medicare and Social Security? Too many lawyers think that the solution to all of our problems lies in the crazy partisan ideas that they cling to!
I haven't even mentioned the 3 wars that we entered... NO MORE BOOTS ON THE GROUND! Except on our own soil. If other nations expect us to protect their freedom (and their price of oil)..... we will charge them through additional excise taxes on whatever they want to ship into our marketplace.

Chael Sonnen reportedly had colon surgery before fighting Rashad Evans at UFC 167
Elias Cepeda at Cagewriter2 hrs agoChael Sonnen and Canadian television show host Michael Landsberg have had a weird, mutually beneficial relationship over the past few years. Once, Sonnen stormed off the set when he apparently didn't like Landsberg's questions.
Now, the TSN reports that in a new interview with Sonnen, Landsberg revealed that a source told him that the fighter had undergone colon surgery before fighting Rashad Evans at UFC 167 last month. Sonnen would not explicitly confirm that he did indeed have surgery but did say that "It's a little bit of a surprise that you had that information."
Sonnen, who lost in the first round via TKO to Evans, explained why he wouldn't elaborate.
"When I sign a contract to fight, I'm agreeing to fight a guy on a certain day at a certain time and in a certain venue," he said.
"It's my job to feel good when I go out and do it and if I don't that may play a hand in the fight."
Ronda Rousey: I'm happy for Miesha Tate
Elias Cepeda at Cagewriter1 day agoUFC bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey next defends her title Dec. 28 at UFC 168 against rival and opposing TUF coach Miesha Tate in a rematch of their 2012 Strikeforce bout. Rousey and Tate's dislike of one another has been well-documented, including Tate's boyfriend/manager/coach Bryan Caraway threatening to knock Rousey's teeth in, Rousey's coach Edmond Tarverdyan threatening to do pretty much the same to Caraway and lots and lots of middle fingers drawn by Rousey and pointed at Tate.
That's why fans might be surprised to learn that Rousey's feelings about the rivalry with Tate include more than just animosity. She's actually happy for the attention that Tate's increased star brings all women in MMA.
"It's not like my dislike for her outweighs how much I care for women's MMA," Rousey said this week on a media conference call.
Retired UFC fighter Julie Kedzie becomes matchmaker for InvictaFC
Elias Cepeda at Cagewriter1 day agoWomen's MMA pioneer Julie Kedzie retired after a close decision loss to Bethe Correia at UFC Fight Night 33 earlier this month but she'll stay involved in the sport as the new matchmaker of the all-female MMA promotion, Invicta FC.
"I'm very happy to announce that I've been in talks with [Invicta president] Shannon Knapp and I'm going to be Invicta FC's new matchmaker," Kedzie recently told MMA Fighting.
"I'm going to be taking on the role as matchmaker of the company, going to work hoping to help developing the careers of other female fighters. Bring them up to the sports, get them the attention they deserve and hopefully promote the sport a little bit on the sidelines now and have a role where I can help people. Face to face, get them what they need...I'm really excited about it. I'm terrified, but excited."
Johny Hendricks: My world doesn't revolve around Georges St. Pierre
Elias Cepeda at Cagewriter1 day agoWe didn't know it at the time, but then-UFC welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre and challenger Johny Hendricks met one another at UFC 167 last month at polar opposite points in their career. If that fact didn't become clear through the fight - one in which Hendricks controlled and did the most damage but which was ultimately awarded to St. Pierre through a controversial split decision - it certainly has become obvious through their respective comments since their bout.
St. Pierre told the world immediately after his win over Hendricks that he needed time away from the sport. Last week GSP reiterated that sentiment and vacated his championship.
After about ten years in the UFC and most of that time spent as a champion, St. Pierre is burned out and described the weight on his shoulders as too much for him at this point in his life. Hendricks, on the other hand, is eager to have that weight and a target on his back.
"I want the target on my back," he told MMA Fighting this week.
Dana White: Nick Diaz turned down rematch with Carlos Condit
Elias Cepeda at Cagewriter3 days agoNick Diaz has not fought since March, when he lost a one-sided decision to Georges St. Pierre in their UFC welterweight championship fight. Before that, he'd sat out during a drug suspension after losing a close decision to Carlos Condit for the interim welterweight title.
Still, last night in Sacramento, UFC president Dana White was willing to give Diaz another shot to be within reach of UFC gold when he offered the exciting fighter what would likely have been a number one contender's bout - a rematch with Condit.
"What I was going to do was, I was trying to make Carlos Condit vs. Nick Diaz. But he said he doesn't want it," White told assembled media Saturday night after the UFC on Fox 9 event had concluded.
"You know Nick. I thought that he wanted the rematch."
White would go on to say that Diaz told him he might consider coming back and fighting again in May.
Urijah Faber submits Michael McDonald at UFC on Fox 9
Elias Cepeda at Cagewriter3 days agoFormer WEC featherweight champion Uriah Faber made another definitive move up the featherweight ladder Saturday night by choking out top prospect Michael McDonald in the second round. Faber won the first round against his much younger opponent with a take down and by landing a few more strikes on the feet.
In the second round, Faber brought on the beginning of the end for McDonald with over hand right hands. The first over hand punch from Faber wobbled McDonald but the top prospect hung tough until Faber landed another one that sent the young fighter reeling backwards.
"The California Kid" sprinted after McDonald, swinging hard and, finally, simply pushing him to the ground. From there, Faber opted to forgo strikes on the ground and instead went for and ultimately sunk in a guillotine choke to force the tap out from McDonald.
Bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz returns at UFC 169 to take on interim title holder Renan Barao in a unification fight. Cruz has not fought for about two years.
The champion was set to fight Faber for a third time before injuring his ACL. A subsequent re-injury kept Cruz out of action for even longer.
Joe Lauzon & Chad Mendes win UFC main card fights
Elias Cepeda at Cagewriter3 days agoThe UFC's most exciting fighter, Joe Lauzon, snapped a two-fight losing streak Saturday night on the UFC on Fox 9 card. Lauzon used take downs, submission attempts in each round and bloodying strikes on the ground from on top to earn a unanimous decision win over Mac Danzig in the main card's opening bout.
Scores were 30-27 across the board for Lauzon, who entered the Octagon tied with long time middleweight champion Anderson Silva for most fight night awards in UFC history. The win was the lightweight's 10th in the UFC.
The TUF winner Danzig has now lost three fights in a row.
Chad Mendes wins fifth straight
Chad Mendes looked to be on his way to a history-making fifth straight KO win early on in his fight against Nick Lentz, landing with thudding right and left punches to his opponent's head. Lentz survived the initial onslaught, however, managing his own hard shots in the first and second round.
In between, Mendes was able to score take downs at will on Lentz through two rounds. Lentz opened the third round pushing the pace on Mendes, with solid body kicks and punches to the head while switching stances.
Celebrity Head-to-Head: Kenny Florian on UFC on Fox 9
Elias Cepeda at Cagewriter4 days agoIn this edition of Celebrity Head-to-Head, retired UFC fighter Kenny Florian and I take sides on three big fights on tonight's UFC on Fox 9 card. Read on to see if you agree with my picks or, if you're wrong and you agree with Florian's. For more of KenFlo, check out his FoxSports column.
Demetrious Johnson Johnson vs. Joseph Benavidez
Kenny Florian: What separates Demetrious Johnson from everyone else is his ability to mix it up in a way very few people can do in the UFC. He's excellent in the clinch. And very good at mixing it up. You never know what he's going to throw at you.
Everyone talks about Johnson's speed, but I'm not sure that he's much faster than Benevidez. I think what will make the difference for Johnson is the variety of tools he has to use.
I think Johnson will be able cause confusion and through that confusion Johnson will get Benavidez to hesitate and that will allow the champ to open up in various ways.
One of those ways will be takedowns. Whoever wins the wrestling battle will probably win the fight.
I'm picking Johnson to win by decision.
Georges St-Pierre says he is going to take a break, vacates UFC welterweight title
Kevin Iole at Cagewriter5 days agoUFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre, who transformed from a young boy who had to learn karate to defend himself against bullies into the biggest mixed martial arts star of his era, said Friday issues in his personal life have caused him to vacate the title and walk away from the sport.
He left open the possibility that he would return, but stopped short of guaranteeing it.
He said the pressure of being one of the sport's biggest stars is always getting to him and that he needed a break to refresh.
"I have been fighting for a long time," St-Pierre said. "I have 22 fights in the UFC [actually 21] and 15 of my fights [actually 14] were for a world title. I have been fighting for a very long time at a high level and there is a lot of pressure, a lot of criticism. I've decided I need to take time off. I know the UFC is a business and they can't wait for my little personal [issue]. They have to keep things rolling so I have vacated my title out of respect to the other competitors.
"One day, when I feel like it, I might come back. But right now, I need a break."
UFC's Cain Velasquez expects to be out a year with injury
Elias Cepeda at Cagewriter6 days agoThe good news is that UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez' Tuesday shoulder surgery was a success, according to a tweet the fighter sent out to followers on Wednesday.
"My shoulder surgery yesterday went well. Can't wait to be back at it!," he tweeted.
The bad news is that even after the successful surgery, Velasquez will likely not be able to fight for about a year. Dave Meltzer reports that UFC president Dana White sent him a text message saying that he was told Velasquez will not be able to train with his shoulder for a full six months. That means that, after recovering, beginning training again and a full training camp, Velasquez would be looking at a fall, 2014 return to action at the earliest.
This would not be the first time Velasquez would have to wait a year or more between fights in recent memory. After winning UFC gold in October of 2010, the new champ had to undergo surgery and recovery before defending and losing his title to Junior Dos Santos more than a year later in November, 2011.

2016 Matching Funds an incentive for Libertarian – Republican voters to vote for Gary Johnson this year
Thursday, November 1st, 2012Allow this writing to be specifically directed to Libertarian and Libertarian-Republican voters…
Did you know that if Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson gets at least 5% of the vote, that means the Libertarian Party will have the OPTION to receive several millions in matching campaign funds in 2016? Johnson is polling at 6% nationally.
Johnson is clearly onto something. Major parties, along with minor parties that reach the 5 percent threshold, do indeed qualify for grants in federal matching funds (although the $90 million figure Johnson referred to is unclear at this point).
Remember when the Republican Party would not include then Republican Gary Johnson in the debates? Well it appears excluding Gary from his freedom of expression is not helping them this 2012 election year.
I predicted the GOP would regret excluding Johnson last year when I wrote:
Now that Gary Johnson has left the Republican Party, he will become political power house and help frame political discourse
And now the test of time has taken place and the prediction is coming into fruition.
TIME recently wrote:
For months, as Johnson ran in the Republican presidential primary, the GOP ignored him as best it could, hoping he'd just go away. Then he did, leaving the Republicans to join the Libertarians. When I ran into him at the GOP convention in Tampa, Johnson looked like a man far removed from his former party, blocks from the convention center, standing on a street corner in front of a Hooters doing interviews.
The GOP isn't ignoring him anymore. Now that Johnson is threatening to siphon votes from Mitt Romney in close elections in Colorado and Nevada (he's also on the ballot in 46 other states and Washington, D.C.), Republicans are doing whatever they can to limit his appeal. Michigan party officials kept him off the ballot because he filed his paperwork three minutes late. In Pennsylvania, the GOP hired a private detective who went to canvassers' homes and flashed his old FBI badge before questioning the signatures they collected, a lawyer for Johnson's campaign alleged. The state GOP and the investigator denied doing anything improper. (On Oct. 10 a judge decided that Johnson will be on the Pennsylvania ballot.) The experience has left Johnson, 59, alienated from some of his old comrades—which, it turns out, he doesn't mind at all. "Going to Republican events, as I did a zillion times, I listened to Republican candidates do their spiel. I cringed at a lot of what they said, whether it was abortion, the terrorist threat, the homophobia, the 'illegal immigrant is the source of all our problems'—man, that stuff made me crazy. The kook element of the Libertarians gets up, and I don't cringe."

Detroit school board re-gains some powers--temporarily
Detroit's elected school board will have short-lived authority over some key decisions.
A Wayne County judge ruled Wednesday that the district's emergency financial manager had exceeded his authority on some issues.
Judge Annette Berry said Roy Roberts must consult with the school board on school closings, security, and some other issues.
Roberts is supposed to share authority with the school board. He oversees finances, while the board supervises academics.
But the two are hard to separate, and both sides have brought court cases over how that should work in practice
Detroit school board President Lamar Lemmons says the ruling granting board members a partial injunction proves Roberts overstepped his authority.
"He's used the fact that he's had financial authority to, if you will, bully the staff into cooperating with him," Lemmons said. "And for all intents and purposes, ignoring the board and its designated superintendent."
The arrangement will be short-lived, though. A new emergency manager law kicks into effect on March 28th, once again giving Roberts broad powers over the whole district.
Lemmons says the board plans a court challenge to the new law.

Titus's Performance Nutritionist, Dan Benardot, PhD, DHC, RD, LD, FACSM, was recently quoted in this awesome New York Times article by Gina Kolata. In addition to working closely with the Titus staff and clients, Benardot is also a professor in the Division of Nutrition at Georgia State University. Continue reading to learn why "Workouts May Not Be the Best Time for a Snack."
Workouts May Not Be the Best Time for a Snack
By GINA KOLATAA few weeks ago, a friend showed up for a run with a CamelBak — one of those humplike backpacks with a tube that allows you to sip liquid — and a belt containing food to eat along the way. Every 20 minutes or so as we ran, he stopped to eat and drink, sprinting afterward to catch up.
Now that is unusual, I thought. Does it really help to eat so often during a 16-mile run?
Certainly a lot of athletes believe they need constant nourishment. My friend and running partner Jen Davis, who has entered more races and run more than I ever have, once went on a 30-mile training run with a guy wearing a CamelBak and bearing snacks. He stopped every 20 minutes along the way and then, about halfway through the run, pulled out a turkey sandwich.
"I'm not sure if he ever actually ran an ultra race," Jen said. "He may have gotten injured after carrying that heavy pack on those long runs."
There is no end to the crazy foods people will eat at endurance events. At the J.F.K. 50-Mile in Maryland, boiled potatoes and chicken broth are provided at aid stations. At the Rocky Raccoon Endurance Trail Run in Texas, runners can choose rice and beans or pasta, along with snacks like pretzels, cookies and candy.
At a 100-mile bike ride my husband and I have done several times, pumpkin pie is offered about 25 miles from the finish line. (My husband tried it one year and felt ill the rest of the ride.)
For the athlete determined to munch on the go, there are shelves worth of prepackaged "energy gels" and bars, even jelly beans, promising to raise performance.
But most athletes are not running 30 or 50 or 100 miles, nor are they doing the equivalent amount of exercise in another sport, like cycling or swimming or skiing. So most of us really do not need to keep eating during a race to maintain energy and stamina, said Nancy Rodriguez, a sports nutritionist at the University of Connecticut.
Dr. Rodriguez reviewed published studies on nutrition and performance as part of a group of experts who wrote a position paper on the topic for the American College of Sports Medicine. Runners, for example, competing in a 5- or 10-kilometer race, she said, "don't need the CamelBaks and don't need to have that Hershey bar or Powerade or Clif shot."
Even athletes who are fast and competitive may not always need to eat during a workout. There's no set rule on what they should eat and drink before, during and after exercise, said Melinda M. Manore, a sports nutritionist at Oregon State University who was an author of the position paper.
"People have gotten the message that they have to eat something," Dr. Manore said. They guzzle an energy drink or eat a sports bar, but that doesn't help. And for the many who are trying to lose weight, the habit just adds extra calories.
What they need depends on what they ate before they started and how hard their workout is going to be, among other things, she explained. "If you can run six-minute miles or five-minute miles and you are going out for an hour, you do not need to be eating an energy bar during the workout," Dr. Manore said.
Moderate athletes need to eat and drink after the workout, she said, but a healthy meal with plenty of fluids is sufficient. Indeed, for most of them, the most common error is to eat too much.
Dr. Manore follows her own advice. She hikes for an hour in the hills every morning, four to five miles. All she has before she goes out is a cup of tea with milk.
But anyone exercising for two hours or more does need to get carbohydrates, the muscles' fuel, according to the position statement. That means eating before, and perhaps during, the workout.
Those who try to skimp can end up with a poorer performance, said Dan Benardot, a sports nutrition researcher at Georgia State University. A long workout, like a run that lasts more than two hours, is "an enormous drain on blood sugar," he said.
If the body runs out of glucose for fuel, it will start breaking down muscle, which is counterproductive. Dr. Benardot's research indicates that athletes do best when they never let themselves have more than a 400-calorie deficit during the day. That is, if you expend 1,500 calories on a two-hour run, you offset it with at least 1,100 calories in food that day.
That means it is a disadvantage to eat most of the day's calories at one time — at night, for example. But athletes should make dietary changes gradually so their bodies can adapt to more frequent fueling, he said. Those who try sudden changes sometimes pay a price.
Dr. Benardot tells the story of a distance runner who was doing well and felt great the morning of a big marathon. Before the race began, she saw her chief competitor put packs of a sugary gel into her running bra to eat during the race.
The distance runner did the same, even though she had never before eaten during races or long runs. It was a disaster: She had diarrhea during the event.
The gels "were anything but a competitive advantage," Dr. Benardot said.
"You have to let your body adapt," he added. "And you have to find out what works for you."
This post has been revised to reflect the following correction:
Correction: February 21, 2012
Earlier versions of this post misspelled the surname of a sports nutrition researcher at Georgia State University. He is Dan Benardot, not Bernadot or Benradot.
