Scott Jorgensen Dropping to Flyweight, Faces Ian 'Uncle Creepy' McCall at UFC on 9
Top ten ranked bantamweight Scott Jorgensen will drop to flyweight for his next fight, facing highly ranked Ian 'Uncle Creepy' McCall at UFC on Fox 9.
Scott Jorgensen may be the No. 7 ranked fighter in the UFC's bantamweight division, but he won't be competing at the 135 pound limit in his next contest. Instead, Jorgensen will be drop to 125 pounds to face Ian McCall on the UFC on Fox 9 fight card.
Jorgensen's (14-7) last fight was a submission loss to Urijah Faber. In his last 12 fights, Jorgensen has gone 8-4. Jorgensen's losses have come to top bantamweights Faber (ranked No. 2), Eddie Wineland (No. 4), Renan Barao (current interim champion) and Dominick Cruz (current champion).
McCall (12-4-1) defeated Iliarde Santos by unanimous decision in his last outing. Prior to that win, McCall was 0-2-1 in the UFC, with losses to Demetrious Johnson and Joseph Benavidez.
The draw on McCall's record came against Johnson. The draw was the result of a scoring tabulation error that came to light after Johnson had already been declared the winner by majority decision inside the Octagon. Had the score been tabulated correctly, the two would have fought a fourth round because the fight was part of a tournament to decide the first UFC flyweight champion. Johnson defeated McCall in the rematch and went on to win the UFC flyweight title.
Despite his UFC record, McCall currently holds the No. 3 ranking in the flyweight division. A victory for Jorgensen in this bout, and it's hard to imagine that he would not become an automatic contender for a flyweight title shot.
Jorgensen tweeted about the drop in weight after the UFC announced the fight:
Well joe let cat out the bag a bit but ya 125 new home— Scott jorgensen (@Scottjorgensen) September 18, 2013
McCall added his take on the booking:
thanks to @phaseiv for everything. Been at this a while. Walking about 140 at the heaviest thanks to them. I'm 5'5 this weight suits me.— Scott jorgensen (@Scottjorgensen) September 18, 2013
UFC on Fox 9 will take place on December 14 at the Sleep Train Arena in Sacramento. UFC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis will put his title on the line against No. 5 ranked Josh Thomson in the evening's main event.
@Scottjorgensen: All I know is @Unclecreepymma n I will fight and you will love it. Be warned. Exactly ... Bonus $$$— Ian McCall (@Unclecreepymma) September 18, 2013

Photos and Review by Oyster.com Investigators
A stylish boutique hotel in a quiet neighborhood
The Hotel Roger Williams makes a stylish first impression: The trendy lobby looks straight out of a design magazine. Picture blue tufted sofas, soaring ceilings, exposed brick walls painted white, orb light fixtures that resemble floating bubbles, and black-and-white photographs of historic figures. A slatted wooden staircase leads up to The Parlour Lounge, a bistro-style restaurant with southern influences.
There are plenty of thoughtful boutique hotel extras, but almost none of them are free, which may make some guests feel nickel-and-dimed. Guests should expect free afternoon beverages in the lobby (such as cider or hot chocolate in cold months and Prosecco in warm months), but the freebies pretty much end there. There's an automatic service fee to cover Wi-Fi and use of the fitness center; the bathroom amenities (including toothpaste, razors, and more) all come with a surcharge; the breakfast buffet is pricey, and there is no coffee in either the room or the lobby.
In low-key Murray Hill, this section of corporate Madison Avenue becomes quiet at night. The Empire State Building is an eight-minute walk away.
With its corporate offices and residential buildings, the Murray Hill neighborhood gets quiet at night -- at least compared with the 24-hour bustle of Times Square or hip downtown 'hoods like the Lower East Side. It's also a safe part of town where local families take their kids to Madison Square Park, five short blocks from the hotel.
The nearest subway is the 6 train on 33rd Street and Park Avenue, a three-minute walk from Roger Williams. The 6 line runs along the east side of Manhattan, and is just one stop away from Grand Central Station, which has a shuttle train that connects to Times Square, the main hub for subway lines. Cabs are easy to hail outside the hotel entrance.
Valet parking is available for a daily fee. There's also a self-park garage on 32nd Street between Park and Lexington Avenues that offers guests discounted rates. The parking ticket must be stamped by the hotel front desk to earn the discount.
About 30 to 90 minutes from three airports
New York City has three nearby airports: JFK, LaGuardia, and Newark (in New Jersey). Flying into JFK or LaGuardia is typically easiest and the least time consuming. From JFK, it's a flat-rate $45 (one-hour) taxi to anywhere in Manhattan. From LaGuardia, it's about a $40 (30-minute) metered cab ride to midtown Manhattan. Rides from Newark cost at least $40 (plus tolls) and can take over 1.5 hours. Don't forget to tip your driver 15 to 25 percent.
To save some cash, group shuttles are available at all three airports for about $14 per person. For more information on the shuttles, go to Super Shuttle or New York Airport Service. You can also take public transit from any of the airports for as little as $7 per person, but travel times can take up to two hours and involve a lot of lugging bags up and down stairs. For mass-transit directions right to the hotel, check out HopStop.com.
Chic rooms with modern technology, but many have tiny bathrooms
The rooms at the Roger mix chic contemporary style with just a little bit of historic charm. They have plush white down bedding, cool gray accents, and modern technology (flat-screen TVs, iPod docks); some have applied crown moldings and stylized black-and-white photos of iconic New York City scenes above the headboards.
Sleek bathrooms have marble counters and mosaic tiling, but many are tiny; some made odd gurgling noises during my visit (likely a result of this being an older building).
Modern 24-hour gym and a daily service fee
Space is limited, and the hotel is a 30-minute subway ride away from most kid-friendly attractions.
The rooms with two double beds are large enough for a family of four, but the bathrooms are too small for more than one person.
Rollaway beds are available for a nightly fee, but they don't fit in the smallest rooms. Cribs are available free. The hotel doesn't offer babysitting, but it can recommend an outside service. There are no kids' activities around the hotel. In fact, the general area doesn't offer anything exciting for kids as it's mostly populated by corporate offices.
The Madison Square Park playground is the only kid-friendly venue around. It's just five short blocks down Madison Avenue, and the neighborhood kids swing on the monkey bars during the day. For kid-friendly food, the park has an awesome burger stand called Shake Shack, but prepared to wait in line.
Most of the kid-friendly museums (the Museum of Natural History, Hayden Planetarium, the Children's Museum of Manhattan) are on the Upper West Side. By subway it would be about a 30 to 45 minute ride, with two transfers.
A trendy lobby lounge and a bistro-style restaurant
This quiet boutique on Madison Avenue in the less touristy area of Murray Hill has plenty to recommend it: a super trendy lobby (courtesy of a 2012 renovation), chic rooms with modern technology, a bistro-style restaurant, and thoughtful extras such as free beverages in the lobby (such as cider in colder months and Prosecco in warmer months). But there's an automatic service fee for use of the 24-hour fitness center and Wi-Fi, there are no in-room coffeemakers, and the amenities in the bathroom aren't free, which may leave some guests feeling nickel-and-dimed. All in all, it's still an excellent boutique option in the neighborhood, though it's worth comparing rates with the nearby King & Grove.

YIVO was founded as the Yiddish Scientific Institute (Yidisher visnshaftlekher institut) in 1925 by scholars in Berlin and Vilna (Pol. Wilno, Lith. Vilnius), Poland. The scholars, who envisioned an academic institution dedicated to the study of Yiddish and East European Jewish culture, chose Vilna, then an important center of Yiddish culture, as its site. The new institute soon became known by its acronym, "YIVO." Today, YIVO is formally known as the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research.
Though they lived in swiftly changing times, YIVO's founders had faith in the continuity of Jewish culture. They approached the study of both the past and the present from a modern perspective, aiming at the highest standards of scholarly objectivity. YIVO was soon known worldwide for the quality and originality of its scholarship. During its first fifteen years of existence, the institute published over one hundred volumes of research studies in the social sciences and humanities.
YIVO was embraced not only by scholars, but also by ordinary Jews, who saw the institute as a focus of national pride. Amateur zamlers (collectors) from all over Poland, other European countries, and the Americas gathered books, manuscripts, photographs, posters, snippets of folklore, and other artifacts and sent them to YIVO, proud to be taking part in building a national treasury of Jewish culture. Their contributions helped YIVO amass an important library and archives, which today constitute the world's largest collection of materials relating to the history of East European Jewry.
One reason for YIVO's popularity with the public was the institute's commitment to using Yiddish, the everyday language of East European Jews, as its official language for business and scholarship. YIVO's founders and activists considered the development of scholarship in Yiddish as the vehicle for the cultural and spiritual blossoming of the Jewish people. YIVO ran special courses for teachers from Yiddish-language schools. It developed standards for Yiddish spelling and transliteration which are still widely in use today.

Chattanooga Football Postgame Quotes
Chattanooga at Georgia State
Saturday – Sept. 7, 2013
Georgia Dome – Atlanta, Ga.
Head Coach Russ Huesman
Opening Statement:
"I thought it was a fine game in all three phases…really pleased. Offensively, we ran the ball really well and that's huge. Defensively we played really well other than towards the end. But we could have gotten out of that if we pick one of those two balls in the end zone. We also won special teams, no question."
On the 401-yard rushing day:
"There was a lot of running room out there. The line blocked well and give the running backs credit, they ran hard. Keon was very physical…he delivered some shots out there. He is a load to tackle. I'm proud of him. I thought the offensive line was really strong today."
On what changed from last week:
"Obviously, when you have D.J. Key, it makes a big difference defensively. Not only in the way he plays, but his leadership. He knows where to go, he has unbelievable instincts. He broke up the one dig early. He is just a great football player and to have him back was huge. To have Will Johnson was big. We got to spell some people and keep them rested up. That was huge. Toyvian we got back in the second half. We didn't play him a lot in the second half. It was one of those games where our guys were not real happy. Today, I think we showed that we can play some good defense here."

One of my favorite foods is cabbage because it's super versatile, has hardly any calories, is free of wheat and gluten, is great for digestion, and is beautiful in color (purple and green). It tastes awesome in salads, gives us valuable probiotics as pickled sauerkraut, plus it works perfectly as a "shell" to be stuffed with yummy fillings to make a delicious hand held treat. I'm currently reintroducing heart-healthy fats into my diet from flax and chia seeds (omega-3), some nuts (vitamin E and antioxidants), and olives to keep my skin supple and moist, especially now that autumn is upon us. I picked up a bunch of avocados at the Farmers' Market, but am disappointed they didn't make it into my bag!
Today, I filled up a red cabbage shell with Chiffonade green cabbage. Watch our "How to Chiffonade" video I shot for Vegetarian Times Magazine: http://www.vegetariantimes.com/video/10). Please watch on the Vegetarian Times website to help generate viewer numbers. Thank you!
I'm also embedding it below from my own YouTube channel:
I first filled up my purple cabbage shell with Chiffonade green cabbage. Next, I layered on a Black Olive Tapenade, from Ani's Raw Food Kitchen, page 155, and Candied Onions, inspired by my Buckwheat-Battered "Fried" Onion Rings, from page 116 of Ani's Raw Food Essentials, plus I added maple syrup to sweeten the onions. I then topped it all with artichoke hearts, and would have added avocado, if I had some on hand.
Black Olive Tapenade
Place all ingredients into food processor, mix well.
Will keep for a week or longer stored in fridge.
Candied Onions
Place all ingredients into mixing bowl. Set aside to marinate and wilt for at least 10 minutes. Add syrup to your liking. I choose to make this sweet! Squeeze excess liquid before using.
Will keep for several days in fridge.
I visited Erewhon Natural Foods in Los Angeles on May 28, 2011 along my book tour for Ani's Raw Food Asia. Erewhon is my favorite Raw Food store. These beautiful photos are courtesy of the very talented Sherman Lee at http://www.digitalslimages.com.
Juan Hernandez, the store manager, makes sure to offer the largest range of Raw Food products and brand, and has created the nexus for Raw Foods here in LA. Juan was one of my earliest supporters of my SmartMonkey Foods packaged and prepared foods products.
Each year's visit celebrating my new book always draws a packed house. I love Erewhon!
I showed everyone how easy it is to make my Mushroom "Bul Go Gi", from Ani's Raw Food Asia, page 186, using mushrooms marinated in tamari or nama shoyu (raw soy sauce), toasted sesame oil, asian pear, and sweetener of choice like agave or brown rice syrup. We topped off these beautiful Lettuce Wraps, from page 188, with my version of a traditional Korean Gochujang Sauce, page 225, made with miso, sesame oil, chile powder, and sweetener like agave.
Following my food demo and Q+A…next, I get to sign books and meet people 1 on 1!
This tour, many people had me sign multiple copies of Ani's Raw Food Asia for friends and family. I do love when people bring their entire collection for me to sign too…..a blessing for me.
My friends Ron Gilmore and Caroline Jue create an awesome animated series called Rawman & Green-Girl. They are doing great work educating and sharing information about our food sources.
Elaine R. Johnson hand delivered this beautiful porcelain sculpture she made to me all the way from Arizona with her mom. Elaine is amazingly talented. I can't even begin to express my gratitude for such a beautiful gift.
This is the beautifully talented Elaine R. Johnson. She told me how challenging porcelain is to work with….cracking as it dries, or cracking out of the kiln during baking. A labour of love, it shows!
BBC Good Food interviewed me for a feature on Raw Foods in their Feb 2011 issue. Very cool, take a peek!
I made several smoothies in San Diego on FOX TV including an Almond Buttered Banana Freeze.
Watch my 6-minute video segment here.
Almond Buttered Banana Freeze + Açaí Recipe (adapted from Ani's Raw Food Essentials) Makes 4 servings
Almonds provide calcium, protein, and vitamin E, bananas are loaded with potassium, and açaí is full of antioxidants and healthy omegas. This easy smoothie is a great post workout fuel – it helps increase circulation and blood flow to stressed muscles, while building lean tissue.
Combine the banana, almond butter, and organic Sambazon Açaí Juice in a high-speed blender and blend until smooth. Best served immediately, but will keep for a couple days in the fridge.
I'm using my favorite blender, the Personal Blender. It costs about $69, and you can find more about the Personal Blender and find organic ingredients at www.GoSuperLife.com.
I gave my digestion a break today by skipping solid food and drank Energy Soup (inspired by Ann Wigmore) all day. So, I decided to feed my hair instead with an Indian Head Massage.
Our climate's dry here in Los Angeles (a dessert), and the sun's been bright this summer, reeking havoc on my locks. My hair felt dry and my ends brittle. So, I took my bottle of organic, extra-virgin, cold pressed olive oil into the bathroom, and poured a heaping tablespoon into the palm of my hand. I massaged the oil into my scalp and hair, and worked it through to the ends. Note to self: next time, pour the oil directly onto scalp…I have a lot of hair.
Our skin is our largest organ, and you know I like to avoid putting things on my skin that I can't drink since it absorbs into my blood stream. Well, did you know our scalp is one of the most absorbent areas of our skin? Mine drank up more than a 1/4 cup of olive oil, and was happy for the increased blood flow and circulation from the massage.
I first discovered this massage, also known as Indian Head Massage, at a spa in Portland, OR. It alleviates stress and tension, increases blood flow and circulation, and promotes hair growth. Supposedly, this treatment done in the evening before bed helps alleviate sleeping issues, so I'm hoping it will cure the insomnia I've been suffering from all week long.
Choose almond, coconut, sesame, and/or olive oil since they moisturize, condition our hair, stimulate hair growth, and have a neutral scent. After your massage, wash your hair, and dry. I always choose to air dry.
Try this trick:
We launched FoodStuff LA with a big celebration at the Pedal Patch Community offices in downtown LA. Above is founder Jason Boarde and Rebecca McQuigg Rigal who works through GOOD with the Pepsi Refresh Project as the Arts & Culture Ambassador.
My RAWvolution event is on September 19th, where we'll be harvesting from the PPC local community and rooftop gardens, then preparing a delicious raw food meal. Hope you'll join me for this fun event.
Christian Page is a locavore, sourcing the finest organic ingredients from our local community. He made all the food happen for this event, including delicious black mission figs, which I ate by the pint! Christian's Living La Vida Local event is in October.
LA Green Girl Siel was at our event, and it was lovely to finally meet her in person…a fellow Korean American!

In this video, I speak with The Blissful Chef Christy Morgan after my book signing and food demo at Erewhon May 8, 2010 about my philosophy of raw food and about my new book Ani's Raw Food Essentials.
Read my interview on Healthy Bitch Daily, where I talk about these topics and include a recipe:
Cauliflower is one of my favorite vegetables, and it was abundant at the farmers' market today. So, I picked up a big, beautiful head to whip up my mash for dinner. Cauliflower comes in white, green, and purple varieties, and works wonderfully processed into a mash. This is my version of mashed potatoes. Cauliflower has a kick to it, which I love. But if it's too strong for you, try the following trick:
To soften the kick of raw cauliflower, process on it's own first with 1 cup of filtered water. Strain through a cheese cloth or nut milk bag. Some of the pungent flavor will run off with the water. Or, you can also substitute with broccoli, which is much milder.
Serve with a gravy on it's own, or alongside your favorite recipe(s).
Cauliflower Mash
To keep your mash lighter in color, you can use white miso paste. I used a red paste, and it was still light in color. I added a touch of olive oil, but for even more creaminess, I use avocado. Avocado creates spots of slight green, which I don't mind, since I love the color green. Besides, the gravy will cover it up anyways.
I used to use Psyllium Seed Husk powder in this recipe, but this batch didn't seem to need any stiffening up, so I skipped it. If your mash is too runny, add a teaspoon at at a time, up to a tablespoon, of Psyllium to thicken.
Place all ingredients into your food processor. Process until smooth.
Mushroom Gravy
A rich and creamy gravy that's easy-to-make in your blender.
Place all ingredients into your blender. Blend smooth.

the BETTER SACRIFICE.
Quote from: Micahthe BETTER SACRIFICE.4By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. --Heb 11What was the better sacrifice that Abel offered? Something with life4And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:--Gen 4Why is this the better sacrifice? What does it represent? Life John 1:36And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!How did Abel know this? God's Spirit1Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.--Heb 11 "the substance"G5287ὑπόστασιςhupostasishoop-os'-tas-isFrom a compound of G5259 and G2476; a setting under (support), that is, (figuratively) concretely essence, or abstractly assurance (objectively or subjectively): - confidence, confident, person, substance.What did Abel have faith in?...the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.--rev 13:819For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. 20For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, 21Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.--Rom 8

- fucoxanthin (1)

- neoxanthin (1)
- Biosynthesis of fucoxanthin and diadinoxanthin and function of initial pathway genes in Phaeodactylum tricornutum (2012)
- The biosynthesis pathway to diadinoxanthin and fucoxanthin was elucidated in Phaeodactylum tricornutum by a combined approach involving metabolite analysis identification of gene function. For the initial steps leading to β-carotene, putative genes were selected from the genomic database and the function of several of them identified by genetic pathway complementation in Escherichia coli. They included genes encoding a phytoene synthase, a phytoene desaturase, a ζ-carotene desaturase, and a lycopene β-cyclase. Intermediates of the pathway beyond β-carotene, present in trace amounts, were separated by TLC and identified as violaxanthin and neoxanthin in the enriched fraction. Neoxanthin is a branching point for the synthesis of both diadinoxanthin and fucoxanthin and the mechanisms for their formation were proposed. A single isomerization of one of the allenic double bounds in neoxanthin yields diadinoxanhin. Two reactions, hydroxylation at C8 in combination with a keto-enol tautomerization and acetylation of the 3′-HO group results in the formation of fucoxanthin.

Berry: Cold weather and hot airWritten by Thomas Berry | | email@example.com
As long as I've been in Northwest Ohio, I've heard longtime residents reminisce about the winters of their youth, with a sort of meteorological "They don't make them like they used to" wistfulness. Now these good folks wonder why on earth they would reminisce about such things.
January was a month for the books. Toledo received more snow than in an entire normal winter. The mean temperature was mean indeed, 9.5 degrees below the monthly norm; record low temperatures were tied or broken on four days (plus one more already this month), and the high temperature was a gelid 1 above zero on the 7th. Thousands of low temperature records were set nationwide. Even Floridians had to break out the parkas for temperatures in the upper 20s, making northerners who fled crisp, refreshing chill and sparkling snowscapes wonder why they bothered.
So what's to blame for this rampant frigidity? Warmer temperatures.
That is what we are being told to think. "Global warming," which I always place in the quotation marks of irony, is why it has been so blasted cold.
But the phrase "global warming" is now as passé as "war on terror." Even the most avid "global warmers" admit in the face of contrary data that "global warming" is neither global nor warming. Now, the correct phrase for a changing climate is "climate change."
I cannot imagine a more blatant redundancy. Changing climate is part of the planet's natural processes; it changes because it changes. Yet now these natural processes are being blamed on human carbon emissions which the "global warmers" seek to regulate in order to enhance their power and and profits.
(Witness Al Gore, a meteorological huckster, becoming a multimillionaire by duping the gullible and easily panicked into his "global warming" sideshow, a carnival of freaks and frauds that include utterly incorrect forecasts that hurricanes after Katrina would be more severe; a doctored image of a hurricane spinning backwards on the cover of his 2009 book, "Our Choice: A Plan to Solve the Climate Crisis;" and lying last year about there being a "Category 6" for his imagined megastorms.)
The "global warmers" rightly point out that this winter's severe weather was caused by the position of the jet stream, one of several narrow, high-elevation wind currents, as it forces wave after wave of arctic air from the polar vortex upon us. But they also claim that this circumstance is due to warmer air elsewhere.
Such a claim in rubbish. The jet stream's position fluctuates precisely because it is not static. It is not a railroad track spiked into the sky; it is wind, and its path moves north and south in curves and tangents in response to natural effects and forces.
As for the polar vortex, some conservatives such as Rush Limbaugh call it an invention of the liberal media. That's as flawed as Gore's backwards hurricane. First identified in 1853, polar vortexes are cyclonic storms at or near the poles that last for weeks; they are strongest in each hemisphere's winter, and their movement north or south can have powerful impacts on the severity of winter weather, as happened this year. We were unaware of them because they stayed out of our hair until now.
An honest look at actual data exposes the foolishness of blaming human carbon emissions for our tough winter. The National Weather Service's Cleveland office maintains a Web page chronicling the daily normals and records for the half-dozen reporting stations in its jurisdiction. Recordkeeping started for Toledo in the 1870s, and dozens of those records still date to the late 1800s; on those days, it has not been warmer or cooler since then. Were we emitting as much carbon then as now? Scarcely. Yet, according to the "global warmers'" "logic," all these old records should have been smashed by more recent carbon emission-influenced extremes. But many records clearly predating carbon emissions remain.
The efforts of these phonies leads us to, who else, President Obama. He made a speech in Fresno, Calif., to promise aid to drought-stricken farmers – never mind that much of their hardship was caused by federal courts denying them water, sacrificing their crops to save fish – and to blame the drought on climate change.
Why didn't he make a similar speech someplace that was impacted by cold and snow? Because drought sells "global warming" to the ignorant better than does winter weather. As if to point out his climate change error, it finally began to rain in much of California in the days preceding the speech. But, hey, he promised in his 2008 victory speech to lower the tides, so I guess he can end droughts.

It's not often that we hear from someone who has left our care.
It's even more unusual when the person calling is now 78 and spent four years at KidsPeace (then Wiley House) as a child.
But that's exactly what happened recently. Richard VanStrander, who now lives in Tennessee, called simply to say thank you for the care he received after he and his brother were pulled off the streets of Allentown when he was only 8 years old. VanStrander's father had died of Parkinson's disease, and his mother broke her hip and was unable to care for him.
He said he was not appropriately grateful at the time; he described himself as a child angry at the world. But years later, he's able to look back at his life and acknowledge that it could have had a very different outcome if not for the kindness and care he received during those four years.
"They took good care of me there," he said. "Most of the time, except for the belligerence of my own self, it was a good place to be."
Read more of VanStrander's story in the next edition of KidsPeace's email newsletter, "For the Kids," which will be distributed later this summer. Not yet a subscriber? Sign up now for our mailing list.

We like to offer members at least three options for their projects, so when this happens we are happy to offer the services of our Local Research Department.

It's been a good while since I came to this site, and it has just been made an excellent decision to do so by coming across this article. Thanks for the interesting read.
Very interesting... Interesting also for the age and condition it is in..
Must have been and adventure for those guys to hang with some Hmongs.. Anyone who saw the movie "Apocalypse Now." It was actually loosely based on a true story..
Hmongs, related to the Montenyards of Vietnam. Tribal people who helped our American Special Ops Troops in their fighting in Cambodia, Laos.. They probably helped the commies also, I guess, depending on the pay..
When American Troops left, they abondoned them to fight on their own.. Typical American fashion. Thanks for your help, see yah.. Good luck..
Lot of them settled in Wisconsin.. Why there, I do not know? If that Hmong only knew its value.. $$

Definitely a good read. Thanks Akfite!!

Enforcement, NOT Amnesty!!!!!!
"If theyre going to come here illegally, apply for & receive assistance through a corrupted Government agency encouraging this lawless behavior, work under the table & send billions of dollars each year back to their families in Mexico, while bleeding local economies dry, protest in our streets waving their Mexican flags DEMANDING rights, while I have to press 1′ for English, then they need to be shipped back to where they came from!" -Chad Miller
dont know why but they need to learn to respect our hunting laws an traditions . they had used bread bags stretched across tree branches making tree stands all over the public property an on a buddys private loand . a few years a ago one murdered a hunter wiht a SKS while trespassing because he was confronted on the owners property.Lot of them settled in Wisconsin.. Why there, I do not know?
every ones got a right to hunt but I wont gove them any breaks they kill any thing that's brown even fawns .
Werent the hmongs the people portrayed in Gran Torino? And very cool article!
The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles.
― Jeff Cooper
During the first and second Indochina Wars, both France and the United States governments recruited thousands of Hmong people in Laos to help fight against invading military forces from North Vietnam as well as communist Pathet Lao insurgents, known as the secret war, during the Vietnam War and the Laotian Civil War. Hmong people were singled out for retribution by the Marxist Pathet Lao, and Vietnamese Army, when they took over the Laotian government in 1975, with the support of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (SRV), and the politburo officials in Hanoi as well as the communist governments of the former Soviet Union in Moscow, North Korea, Cuba and China. Hundreds of thousands of Hmong refugees fled to Thailand seeking political asylum. Thousands of these refugees have resettled in Western countries since the late 1970s, mostly the United States, but also in Australia, France, French Guiana, Canada, and South America. Others have returned to Laos under United Nations-sponsored repatriation programs.
jimraynor21. Geez sorry I never saw Gran Torino..
During our war years involvement in Vietnam, their were just as much going on in neighboring Cambodia and Laos.. MACV and SOG "Special Operations Grooup" Were heavily involved with intense behind the lines fighting there..
Who better than to get help from but the indigenous people who knew the A.O.. Sadly the Hmong and Montagnards were looked at as second class citizens, by the peoples of countries posted..
I was NOT any type of SOG.. But was around them all the time in the mountains. I found them to be courteous and respectful. In typical American fashion, we got them to work for us against their suppressors.. In typical American fashion, as we did with American Indians who helped us.. Thank you, see yah later bye.. Good luck..
Now as they helped us and the French, they are being double suppressed. SOG groups got together to petition our Govt. to help get them over here. Essentially thanking them for helping us..
Wisconsin, for some reason, seems to be the place they got them settled into.. Up there with bigguns A.O..
Long talks with my Uncle Marv from Wisconsin "USMC Korean War" found them to be, not so welcome there..
That he might explain better than I...
I have tons of pictures if I get off my ass I will post them for yall..

very cool. I remember reading about the type 1 a few years back but went away with the impression that they were essentially early prototypes and insanely rare, seems that assumption was false as at least two made the long trek to southeast Asia to be used as real fighting weapons.
Thanks for sharing the link.

I wrote a lot about Google Plus Box, an expandable extension of the snippet that shows up for some sites in Google's search results. Most of the time, this information is retrieved from different Google services.
After introducing the Maps Plus Box and testing the Finance Plus Box, Google experiments with a Video Plus Box that shows a preview of a video inside the search results. Razvan Antonescu, who spotted this experiment, saw it only for a Google Video page, so it's likely that - at least for the moment - Google will add it only for Google Video and YouTube.
Of course, Google should continue to be objective and include it for all the online video sites, but there are some questions:
* What are the videos sites? How to detect all of them and find the embeddable code?
* Will those sites want the Plus Box? Maybe they'll say Google steals traffic from them, because they want to show ads and to have big page views.
* Who will click on the search result to see the video (and maybe some comments and context), like they used to do?
* It will be the first time when content outside of Google control will be included in the search results (for example, the thumbnails from image search results are hosted by Google). Will there be performance issues?
Google also promised to add more video sites to Google Video and to transform it into a real video search engine. They'll have to answer to the same questions for Google Video, so they should connect these two efforts to make videos more accessible.

Downspeed shifts gears with added bassistWritten by Jason Mack | | email@example.com
When Toledo outlaw rock and metal band Downspeed embarked on the search for its fourth bass player last month, Sarah Miles demanded an audition and earned her way into the boys club.
"I didn't think she was going to make it," guitarist Burn Strouse said. "She played hour after hour on her own at home to be able to play at this level. She went from Pat Benatar to Motorhead."
"I knew Burn about a year from coming to shows and stuff like that," Miles said. "I've been in other bands the last few years. I've progressed and wanted something on a different level. They needed a bass player and I kind of made them let me try out."
Having a woman involved is an adjustment for a band that has a wall of their practice room at the House of Rock dedicated to pictures showcasing female anatomy (it's named after the Great Wall of China), but Miles is fitting right in so far.
"I think I'm different for them, having a chick here, but whatever they dish out, I can dish right back," she said. "I don't know if they can put up with my s***. Being a chick and playing this kind of music, there's a lot more pressure. I have to prove myself."
"If she couldn't put up with our s***, she probably would have been out of here on the first day," drummer Steve Langenderfer said.
After jokes about topics such as throwing picks down to watch Miles bend over to pick them up, Strouse expressed his gratitude about having her in the band.
"She is way more fun compared to the other guys that were in the band," he said.
Miles spent more than a decade playing guitar before switching to bass. After spending years in rock cover bands, the speed of metal music was hard for her to handle.
"My background was more in cover bands, but I've always loved heavier music like punk and metal," Miles said. "I have blisters on my fretting fingers from all the hours I spent trying to play this fast. Even between practices I'm still practicing. The speed is so new to me that I have to keep up on it to stay at that level."
The name Downspeed is ironic for Miles, but it fits perfect for Langenderfer since the music is actually a slower pace than his previous experience in death metal bands.
"I got too old for it," he said. "The kids are playing way too fast now. This is more my speed."
While it might be slower compared to death metal, Downspeed's music is still fast.
"We're loud, rude and aggressive," Strouse said. "We're a notorious source of raw power. We're not background music. Nobody is taking a p*** when we're on. We attack it. We're like a shark."
"We're kind of putting a new twist on old '80s stuff like Motorhead and Motley Crue," Langenderfer said. "It's the best of the '80s minus the glam."
The music blends in other genres such as blues and classic rock.
"I like the blues," Strouse said. "If you don't like [Lynyrd] Skynyrd, you don't like me."
"I still remember hearing the band for the first time, before I was in it," Miles said. "I remember hearing them in another room and going in to see them. I hadn't seen anything like it in a long time and it grabbed my attention."
However you describe the sound, Strouse is excited about where the band is headed.
"I think we're right there," he said. "I think we're what the world needs. When I turn on the radio, I wish I could listen to a band like this. That's why I write it."
Downspeed will look to create some potential radio hits soon as the band is preparing to record its first full album.
A three-song demo will be available along with other merchandise at the band's next show. Downspeed is headlining Feb. 11 at Woodchuck's with performances by Megaton Hammer and Pieces of a Blackout. Doors open at 8 p.m. and there is a $5 cover. Woodchuck's is located at 224 S. Erie St.
