Awesome Mike!Whatever keeps you in the game right? I'm not sure I would have it in me to take a drill and screws to my kicks. I have a pair of Kahtoola Microspikes that would fit you perfectly (Size L). If you're interested in them let me know and we can arrange something as long as you promise to put a point back in them when you're done. ;-)
Eugene- these shoes are on their downward slide, I'd be more hesitant w/ a new pair :) if these don't provide enough grip I just might hit you up on your offer- microspikes are probably something I should invest regardlessin other injury news :( my right achilles tendon is pretty aggravated- it started w/ an audible clicking I noticed when walking around the house- no pain however, now it's ramped up a bit and causing some pain- not shooting pain, just an aggravating painI started icing it last night and will continue w/ icing- also taking some ibuprofen, I've got two days of rest scheduled in- will reassess on SaturdayMike

Having some experience running in a few mountain ultras that pack in the climbs, I feel that time on the feet is a better index of how we'll fare in the canyon not mileage so much. That being said the two aren't independent of one another either. Vertical gain and descent conditioning are also a big part of this sort of run. If this is a problem look to Michael Wardian for inspiration the guy has a treadmill in his basement and will bump up the incline while his kids play and watch TV with him. He seems to have fared well against a lot of guys who run in the actual mountains. Anyhow, I keep a pretty steady run log on DailyMile, so I'll go back and start from a few weeks ago:Key:M/T/W/Th/F/S/Su = Total miles; Time ##: milesT:TrailR:RoadTempo: Pace to slight discomfort, but small talk is still possible (####'):Total Climbing (estimated based on back logs; plan to log this more carefully in the coming months)11/14 - 9(1250')T/7(1100')T/8(1200')T/8(1200')T/0/13(400')R/13(400')R = 57mi; 7h 36m11/21 - 12 (1200')/8(1200')/8(1200')/0/7(1100')/13(500')R/13(500')R = 61mi; 7h 55m11/28 - 7(1100')/8(1200')/0/3(100')/6(500')/15T(1000')/22T(2500') = 60mi; 8h 51m12/5 - 0/8(1200')T/9(400')TempoR/9(400')RTempo)/10(1000')T/16(2000'')T/12(1000')T = 64mi; 8h 36m12/12 - 5(700')T/0/4(100)R/0/0/0/28mi(1400')R/T Marathon Fat-ass (3:53;1st place Overall) = 37mi; 5h 04m (marathon taper & holiday travel week) 12/19 - 0/0/0/0/5R(negligible)/4TempoR(600')/4TempoR(600')/0 = 20 mi; 2h 50m - Taking some time to recover from Sunday's Marathon hoping to pick up late this week and start to log training in earnest for the R2R2R in January.12/26 - 0/5(700')T/6(800')T/9(1000')T/8(950')T/8(950')T/9(1200')T = 45mi; 6h 19m 01/02 - 7.5(900')T/7.5(900')T/7.5(850')T/0/5(1000')T/10.5(1200')T/7(2500')T - 45mi; 6h 44m1/9 - 0/0/0/5.5(900')T/6.5(1000')T+4(800')T// = mi; h mTraining Log Here

I read a little of the ankle talk and my advice would be rest and ice. A few years back (and in my haste) I ran a relay segment on an already sore ankle. I ended up tearing a tendon at its insertion point to the foot. The worst part of this was I still had a mile to run before I could hand off to my teammate - I clenched my jaw and pushed through the pain, but I ended up paying for it with a few weeks on a crutch. I ended up doing a lot of laps in the pool to keep active. Taping is good for minor injuries or assisting in alignment, but when you're really hurting the best bet is to take few extra rest days and let things rebuild... Heal well.
I finally hit four runs and 20 miles! :)my ankle feels like it's 100%, my achilles feels better, but not 100%I found a way to tape for achilles tendonitis- seems to help, I'm going to get some of the Kinesio tape as it looks like it might work better than athletic tapeone of my runs was a road run (actually the side of the road off of the asphalt) that includes a pretty decent long hill, pretty slow going up, but down is another story- actually felt like I was running :)
Hey Mike - Glad to hear you're feeling better. I use KT tape whenever my patellar tendonitis flairs up. Here are a few things I've learned about it: Make sure you get a fresh roll (I have had good luck buying from "Isokinetics" a seller on Amazon). You don't need to shave the area of application, but what you really do need to do is put it on right (before bed is usually when I apply it) and let the tape cure. I have had problems with it slowly coming unstuck if I put it on within an hour or two of a run. If you pat it dry after showers it should survive for ~3 days. I've also trimmed strips if they seem too long for a certain application - make sure if you trim it that you round the edges. I also suggest watching the specific application videos on the KT tape site or youtube. Happy taping!
Edited by hewinsd on 12/11/2011 18:15:34 MST.
Dan- thanks for the tips, I did watch a couple of their videos- the tape looks like it forms better than athletic tapeI see they have a H2O rocktape as well, same price, might stay on better w/ running in the snow, showering, etc????of course I am deeply drawn to the flying skull tape! :)Mike
Mike- Yes, the tape is supposed to have the same elasticity constant as skin, so in theory when applied correctly (basically how tight you lay the tape down; see vids) it will stretch along with your skin and provide some extra support. It has worked for me in a few spots when I've needed it. I almost always apply the tape below my knee caps if I am racing a marathon or longer rather than have issues mid-race. It has a barely there feel.I have always relied on the "KT" brand because that is the first brand I tried. KT and the Kinesio brand seem to be the companies that are most popular and visible at competitions (i.e., sponsors etc). I know a lot of tri-atheletes/swimmers use KT, but they may also reapply daily. I have not heard of Rocktape, but that doesn't mean they're not just as good.Happy running!
Edited by hewinsd on 12/11/2011 18:27:38 MST.
Good on you for hitting that next level Mike. Keep it up, stay healthy and uninjured.
nice mike, good to hear. Now i'm the only one who is still sidelined.do you have a link for the wrapping method you are using? i'd like to give it a try.been keeping up with RICE, although I still have to be up and about so its not total rest, and i think that's my main problem. Every day at some point i put some real stress on the ankle and it hurts like a b***h again for an hour.
ben- that sucks!been this is what I used, called the "Mulligan" wraphttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEjKhf-qDJUsounds like my sprain was a lot milder than yours, there are several other ankle taping methods that provide more support- they might be more advantageous for you????if anyone gets mild achilles tendonitis this is the method I used in taping for it- I used regular athletic tape the KT or rocktape looks like it would be better yethttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLtD8zqZ_m0mike
On what is perhaps my favorite blog, The Logic of Long Distance, Jeff recently posted a followup to an earlier post entitled "Rethinking How to Train". I think any athlete could benefit from the wisdom imparted here, but especially (obviously) runners.Part 1:http://thelogicoflongdistance.blogspot.com/2011/10/rethinking-how-to-train.htmlPart 2:http://thelogicoflongdistance.blogspot.com/2011/12/rethinking-how-to-train-continued.htmlOne thing I have gleaned from the two of these posts, that I have been trying to incorporate in my runs: Purpose.I often (maybe too often) run simply to run. No real goal, no game plan, no set idea about what I will be training for on that day, or how that particular run fits into the bigger picture. Aside from the obvious- general fitness- I run to run, because I love it, because it makes me feel good.As of late, I have been thinking quite a bit about purpose when running and have tried to develop a new habit. Prior to each run, as I lace shoes, rummage around for my ever disappearing favorite beanie, I try to bring one question into focus: What am I running for today?The answer shifts, but lately, it has simply been to maintain a base (my "real" training for the R2R2R will begin January). Even so, while reaffirming such a general goal, it brings things into focus and becomes a sort of meditation that in turn brings purpose to the run: I am doing this today so that my body will be prepared to accept harder work in the months to come.It may sound small, but I find it helps a great deal.As an amateur athlete, it is very easy to get lost in self-doubt, laziness, excuses. Nobody forces us to do this. If I don't wake up at 5AM for my Saturday morning long run nobody cares. In fact, I have every reason not to go; cooking pancakes for the kids, sleeping in, coffee in the backyard with my wife...Every runner knows it can be a tough to get out the door at times. It's hot, it's cold, it's raining, I'm too full, I'm too hungry, I'm too....I think sometimes we just run on faith, perhaps stubbornness, or even stupidity. But by incorporating these short meditations, bringing my attention back to the bigger picture and how this specific run fits into it, the first steps are that much easier.
Edited by xnomanx on 12/14/2011 20:38:24 MST.
thanks Craig :) I really liked this quote "Training and training effect is series of applying stress and your base fitness level going down; and taking recovery and let the base fitness to come up and go beyond. It's the wave of this activity."I too am attempting to get a decent base (got a long ways to go!), but I do try to incorporate purpose as well- one I'm trying to vary things- mileage, time on the ground, terrain, elevation gain/loss, etcI'm also trying to insure that I don't get ahead of myself (riding the wave too long) and getting decent recovery time-injuries seem to be insuring this thus far! :(Lastly I'm making sure it's fun and interesting, finding new trails and making new loops, running off trail, taking in the landscape and wildlife, relaxingI think as the mileage increases these will become even more important
just got a $20 off Moosejaw coupon and purchased a pair of Microspikes :)I'm thinking, depending on conditions obviously, that they might be handy to have in the pack for the run in April?
Great Mike.I'm hoping that Spikes won't be necessary in mid April, but you never know. You'll get some good use out of them either way. We've received more moisture than usual for this time of year in southern NM, but projected long term climate predictions for our region (AZ,TX,NM) are forecasting above average temps and below normal precipitation.
I'll be packin' my steel if there's word of ice out there.Based on where you live and what you do Mike, I'm surprised you haven't tried them sooner. I think you'll be impressed. Nice and grippy, flexible enough to run easily, but won't trip you or bleed you like a crampon can.
Edited by xnomanx on 12/17/2011 19:51:38 MST.
I would guess there's a slim chance of needing microspikes for the R2R2R on April 14.
Edited by asandh on 02/13/2012 20:36:32 MST.
re microspikes- hope we don't need them, but nice to have them just in case :) I'll no doubt get use out of them heremy week of 12/12 was very good, a couple of firsts for me- first run of 10 miles (previous long was 8) and first week to break 20 miles (got 20 even last week)the weather for this time of year has been stellar (Sat and Sun both in the 40's!), I've done a little exploring and have added some more "trail" to my existing loops- much of it is off trail, just kind of fun running new places and making new loopspretty much injury free this week, so that's goodanywho still got a long way to go, but am slowly and steadily chipping at itquestion on training, I'm going into my 5th "official" week of training- is there a point I should consider cycling down for a week? I'm definitely a little on the sore side, no injuries, but sorealso Thom I see you have 12/12 and 12/19 marked down as injury- what happened?Mike

"Edible escapism" is how Brits are getting themselves through the slow economic recovery, according to JWT London's latest Austerity Index. In a survey for the fifth Austerity Index report, 69 percent of British respondents acknowledged splurging on treats in the last three months, with 41 percent of these indulgences in the food or drink category. Treating, it seems, is eating. The report identifies foodie treats being used not only as a coping mechanism for therapeutic purposes but also as a social lifeline, a way to share experiences.
2014 marks the fourth year of austerity measures in the U.K.—strict coping behaviors are now ingrained, living standards have declined, and weariness about austerity remains unchanged. But our Austerity Index data reveals pockets of positive uplift, and the U.K.'s splurging habits suggest that these little mood-boosters are fueling optimism, even when household finances are barely surfacing.
"The way to Britain's heart is surely through its stomach," says Marie Stafford, Planning Foresight Director at JWT London. "It is a sign of the power of the experience economy, our need for social contact and a marker of how far Britain has come in its relationship with all things epicurean that food and drink should become our chosen indulgence." However, this throws the country's polarization into sharp focus: "It seems even more unfair that many households struggle to purchase nutritious food," says Stafford.
The full report is available to download at austerityindex.com, along with reports from previous quarters.

NeverWinter Nights 2 coming to the Mac

NeverWinter Nights 2 Mac
Aspyr Media has announced that it will port NeverWinter Nights 2, the popular role-playing game set in the fantasy world of the Forgotten Realms, to Mac OS X. In the game, you play a character who matures from peasant to full-fledged hero in an attempt to protect Realms against grave threats. You can build a character that suits your style of play - good or evil, chaotic or lawful, with any number of skills, feats and professions. Aspyr says "Whether lobbing fireballs and researching forgotten spells as a powerful Wizard, hacking a trail through legions of orcs as a Fighter armed only with a battle axe and your courage, or taking on the role of a Rogue that can slip into the shadows at a moment's notice, the choice is yours. Choose your alignment, your allies, your companions, and how you want your character to develop." NeverWinter Nights will ship in December 2007, and will soon be available for pre-order at a price of $50.

The best way to travel throughout the Piceno county, in Le Marche region, is to ride a vintage Vespa motorbike.
North of the River Aso, a short drive from Fermo takes you to the hill-top village of Moresco, with its tiny piazza – again triangular – that seems to have come straight from some opera set. No surprise, therefore, to see a sign announcing that this is "uno dei borghi più belli dell'Italia" … although neighbouring Monterubbiano is hardly less alluring. Beyond Petritoli, the road rises as you approach Montelparo; and from Montefalcone, perched on a spectacular outcrop of rock 757 metres above sea level, the view once more takes your breath away. Not for nothing, one imagines, is its name 'mount of the falcon'.
Here, the beaches of the Riviera delle Palme seem another world, and the intimate scenes nearer the coast have given way to something more rugged….

"Today, in our field, there is so much talent and recognition that we are reaching a saturation point. An artist should no longer strive only for breathtaking craftsmanship; he should, instead, try to help us live better, either by dressing the wounds that are constantly being opened by society, or by offering solutions to get us out of the mess we're in…But it's going to be difficult and we have a lot of work to do." - Jean 'Moebius' Giraud

Well, not *really* The Outsiders, per say. But that's how it was explained to me when the fella asked for the commission. Anyways, apologies for taking so long in finishing this, Riki. But as my previous post expressed, I've been behind the eight ball for about two months or so now. This'll be out to you in the mail very soon.
Now, what else did I say I was going to do for someone else? Where'd I put that commission list....?

Yeah. If that doesn't sound good, then I don't know what does.I saw these on How Sweet It Is and I could not pass it up. I mean I would've just reached into my computer and devoured them, but now I know that doesn't really work out so well. So I made it at home, fine by me! That way I get to taste test every test, you know-just to make sure it's safe.I think it's safe to say that they're amazing. But I may just have to try the rest, to be sure.Ah well this recipe finished up my package of Oreos, and as you may know that would normally be a tragedy but now I've got something that (dare I say it?) is better.And if you're new around here you should know that along with my many other obsessions, I absolutely can NOT get enough of peanut butter. I may or may not have been known to eat it by spoonfuls out of the jar. Don't judge. So I obviously got some of that good stuff in here! Thank good Jess over at how sweet it is can read my mind and make recipes that make me happier than Charlie Sheen and winning. (has that phase of that phrase passed over yet?)Yeah, well if these pictures haven't done you in yet, then I'm not sure what will. Seriously though…THESE WILL ROCK YOUR WORLD!
Triple Layer Cookies and Cream Crunch Bars
(adapted from How Sweet It Is)
1/2 c. butter, room temperature
1 1/2 c. white sugar
2 eggs
2 t. vanilla extract
1 1/4 c. flour
1/4 t. salt
4 T. cocoa powder
2 c. chocolate chips
1/2 c. peanut butter
20 Oreo Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour an 8×8 pan.
- Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then add vanilla. Add in cocoa powder and mix until combined. Add flour and salt, mixing until it is all smooth and comes together. Fold in 1/2 c. chocolate chips (I used chopped up dark chocolate).
- Spread in prepared pan. Lightly press 9 Oreo cookies into the batter. Bake for 25-30 minutes. While baking, crush the remaining Oreos in a plastic baggy. When brownies are finished baking, remove from the oven and sprinkle with 1/2 c. chocolate chips and crushed Oreos. Place back in oven for 2-3 minutes. During this time, melt the rest of the chocolate (I used dark chocolate again for this) and 1/2 c. peanut butter together. Remove brownies from oven and pour melted chocolate mixture over top, spreading until completely covered. Make sure chocolate gets all the way down in the cracks, because it helps everything stick together! Refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.
- Store in container in fridge.
Anybody wanna send me some Oreos?

I have talked many people especially women to get the response about the interaction of prednisone and birth control issues. As birth control is very important for the women they always remain conscious about the issue. Few of the give their opinion that there is no or little effect the use of this drug on birth controls. However few of them talked to me about their experience that they got sick on getting the prednisone drug and the birth control pill at the same time. The said that these two drugs create mess while using simultaneously. According to their opinion birth control pill increase the effect of steroid which causes lot of other complication. Actually the prednisone is a very strong steroid and with the combination of birth control pills the strength of steroidal effects increases and causes the real damage to the health.
There some common issues about the use of prednisone and birth control especially the patient suffering IDU may lose the fertility and the prednisone is a steroid which also increases this situation in the body of the patient taking this drug with some other birth control medicines. Not only it reduces the fertility but also create some other complication in the body of the patients. The use of prednisone greatly disturb the menstrual periods some time in increase the time and some time it cause to change the date which can effect the birth control strategies up to some extent.
Most of the doctor does not think that prednisone has not much concern with the birth control techniques especially birth control pills. Because most of the women using prednisone create some other side effect which have no concern with the fertility process in women. Therefore, it can be concluded that the use of prednisone is safe while using the birth control pill simultaneously up to large extents. Prednisone and birth control can be maintained without suffering any complication.
As mentioned above the birth control issues are very important for women now a day. Therefore women remain more concern about this and check the effects of other medicines on the process of birth control here few of the birth control techniques are discussed to discuss the effect of use of prednisone with birth control techniques:
• Taking Birth Control Pills
This is very common way of controlling birth in women and most of the women find it fit for them. Actually the birth control pill are mostly consist of hormones which not only reduces the fertility but also cause some other effect to control the unwanted pregnancy. The hormones make change in the mucus of the ovary not to host a fertilized egg. These pills disturb the normal cycle of hormones in the women this causes not to release egg which can fertilized by the sperm. As prednisone has not much effect on the hormonal change in the body therefore it do not cause any issue of Prednisone and birth control.
• Use Of Vaginal Ring
• Use Of Condom
Use of condom is very common and safe technique in birth control. It has no side effect on health of the man and women exercising this technique to control the birth of unwanted chilled. The prednisone has absolutely no effect on this technique of birth control.
More or less there are no or very remote heath problem associated in using steroid like prednisone related to the birth control especially in women. I have discussed the view of some patients taken from different blogs and the view of medical experts from their websites I find no problem between Prednisone and birth control processes and medication used for the birth control. Somehow some minor problem may occur but mostly it is safe.

Records of the 30 cases of gastric carcinoid at the Mayo Clinic showed that the gastric mucosa was normal, hyperplastic, or atrophic (nonantral) in 12, 2, or 16 patients, respectively. In the atrophic group, the tumors were in the gastric body and fundus; small, polypoid, and multicentric; and associated with fundal argyrophil cell hyperplasia. In immunocytochemical studies, minor tumor cell populations stained positively for 5-hydroxytryptamine, gastrin, and somatostatin in 1 case and for 5-hydroxytryptamine in 3 others. Metastasis occurred in 3 patients. Twelve patients had pernicious anemia. Parietal cell or intrinsic factor antibodies or both were present in all 12 patients tested. Each of the 7 patients with an intact antrum had massive hypergastrinemia. No common HLA-A, -B, or -DR antigen pattern was detected among the 10 patients tested. The results suggest that nonantral gastric atrophy predisposes to gastric carcinoid as well as to gastric carcinoma.

Tornado confirmed in Troup
by Wes Mayer
Authorities with the National Weather Service have determined a tornado that downed trees and caused damage in Troup County did not touch down in Coweta County late Monday, and there were no reports of damage to homes or power lines here.
Jay Jones, Coweta County Emergency Management director, said on Tuesday that field technicians with the National Weather Service office in Peachtree City assessed the area of southwest Coweta County near Corinth to see if a tornado might have touched down in a sparsely populated area.
Technicians determined a tornado did not touch down in Coweta – but one did touch down in northern Troup County, prompting Coweta to be placed in a tornado warning around 7 p.m. Monday. According to Jones, the tornado lifted before reaching Coweta County.
Trisha Palmer with the National Weather Service told the Associated Press on Tuesday that an EF2 (Enhanced Fujita scale) tornado was confirmed to have touched down in Troup County around 7 p.m., traveled five-and-a-half miles in 10 minutes – moving 120 mph – and damaged four to six homes in the area. There were no injuries, but the tornado caused extensive damage to trees.
The first wave of Monday's line of storms moving in from the west hit Coweta County between 7 to 7:30 p.m., during which the county was placed in a tornado warning. The emergency weather sirens were sounded in Grantville twice, Jones said, and a number of ball fields were evacuated by public safety personnel.
The Grantville City Council was in session when a tornado warning for that part of the county was issued. Police officers came into the city council chambers with the information about 7:05.
"We are under a tornado warning until 7:45," Mayor Jim Sells told the people present for the meeting. He offered audience members an opportunity to leave the building.
Most people stayed, and the meeting continued. "This is probably as good a place to be as any," Sells said.
The Centre for Performing and Visual Arts on Lower Fayetteville Road in Newnan was the site of senior honors night for East Coweta High School on Monday. The event was not canceled, but everyone was asked to get off the stage, and audience members in the higher seats were asked to move down a level for safety purposes. The program was delayed about 15 minutes.
After another line of storms moved through in the early morning hours Tuesday, Jones said, around 6:30 a.m. there were three reported downed trees in Coweta – one near the intersection of Oliver Potts Road and Roscoe Road, another near the intersection of Welcome Road and Jack Russell Road, and a third along the 200-block of Welcome Road.
A flood watch is in effect for Coweta until around 2 p.m. Wednesday, according to the National Weather Service. One to three inches of rainfall is expected to cover north and central Georgia – flooding may affect areas near creeks or rivers, or roads may flood near ditches or storm drains.
According to the National Weather Service, a hazardous weather outlook was in effect in north and central Georgia beginning Tuesday afternoon and continuing overnight. Possible hazardous weather included the possibility of damaging winds, hail, isolated tornadoes and lightning.
The risk of severe thunderstorms will continue today with a 60 percent chance, and damaging winds and isolated tornadoes are the most likely threat, according to the National Weather Service. There's a 20 percent chance of thunderstorms tonight, and the forecast for Thursday is mostly sunny with a high of 71 degrees.
Around 11:45 a.m. Tuesday, Georgia Power released a statement that severe weather caused 75,000 power outages statewide – mostly around metro Atlanta and areas in north and west Georgia. Throughout Tuesday, Georgia Power employees were able to restore power to 55,000 customers, but as of midday Tuesday, more than 17,000 Georgia Power customers were without power.

A truly beautiful lily, a customer favorite, Lilium 'Blackbird' puts on a spectacular show, adding depth and dynamic quality to any garden. The deep red, three to six inch blooms make a great companion for roses, cone flowers, and other lilies.
The striking deep red of these blooms is satin shaded and speckled in black, reminiscent of a blackbird's feathers in the sunlight, a very interesting effect. They are also very easy to care for, resistant to cold, heat, disease, and pests.
Care Tips
This lily requires moist, well-drained, nutrient rich soil. It may be necessary to use an all-purpose fertilizer with every other watering, especially if you are growing in a container. This plant also requires full sunlight, and may not respond well to being indoors. A grow light or bright window might be necessary to grow Blackbird as a houseplant.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. - Providence College Head Lacrosse Coach Chris Burdick announced the Friars' 2009 team captains on Tuesday, December 2. The team will be led by graduate student Colin Reposa (East Falmouth, Mass.) , senior Danny Ryan (Chatham, N.J.), junior Garrett Kanter (Marblehead, Mass.), junior Tim Barry (Silver Spring, Md.) and sophomore Steve Lydon (Braintree, Mass.).
"We have been blessed with outstanding leadership in our program over the years and this group should be no different," Coach Burdick said. "This could be the most difficult assignment the group of captains has had in our program in quite some time, with all the new players joining our team this year."
The captains, along with Seniors Robert Bryan (Apex, N.C.), Bobby Labadini (Westford, Mass.)and John Tunney (Medfield, Mass.), have the difficult task of directing a team that has 18 new faces in 2009. The team also will be coping with the loss of a talented senior class and four graduate students from 2008.
Reposa ,has played 47 career games for the Friars as a midfielder. He scored his first collegiate goal in 2008 and owns 66 groundballs in his career. Ryan also has appeared in 47 games for the Friars and has recorded two career assists to go along with 15 groundballs. Kanter has played 13 games in two seasons for Providence, including 10 games a year ago. He has recorded two points on one goal and one assist, and has picked up seven groundballs. Barry has played in six games for Providence during his career. Lydon, in just his second year with the program, played four games in the midfield for Providence a season ago.
Providence opens the 2009 season against defending NCAA National Champion Syracuse on February 15 in Syracuse, N.Y. The Friars will be competing in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) for the final year, before beginning play in the newly formed BIG EAST Men's Lacrosse League in 2010. The Friars have won four MAAC Regular-Season titles and three MAAC Tournament crowns since joining the league in 1996. The Friars also have earned a spot in the NCAA Tournament during the 2004, 2006 and 2007 seasons.

Even with the low bluetooth volume that I was experiencing (did the update do anything with this?), which ultimately caused me to return the phone, I find myself really missing my 920. I went back to my workhorse iPhone 4, but it just isn't doing it for me.
I really want the yellow 920. But with only 8 days left for the free charging plate, do you think the yellow will be back in stock?
Also, I would really want a good form fitting, slim leather pouch (rather than a bulky case, had the speck). Any recommendations?
** Forgot to mention, tried a GS3 for a couple weeks. I really hated Android, especially on AT&T. Voicemail is a separate App?Palm Pilot Personal, Palm III, Palm V, Palm IIIc, Kyocera QCP-6035, Sony Clie N710C , Sony Clie N610, Palm Tungsten T3, Palm Treo 650, Palm Treo 680, Palm Treo 750, iPhone, Blackjack, iPhone 3g, iPad 1, Palm Pre, iPhone 4, Nokia 920, iPhone 5, Nexus 4, iPhone 5s, iPad Air, Surface 2, Surface Pro 3, Galaxy S4, iPhone 6 Plus, Surface 3, iPad Air 2.

Archive for the 'junkyard scenes' tag
Junkyard, 1950s
This photo of an unidentified junkyard has been floating around the Internet for so long, we actually used it once before as a tip-in image in a Four-Links post five years ago. It's a safe bet that none of these cars lasted that long either on the road or in the junkyard here. Man, could people just not drive back then? Anyway, while it'd be nice to have some context to the photo, the cars themselves tell plenty of stories on their own. What do you see here?
Oakland, California, 1959
As Michael Lamm explained to us, in the pre-Lady Bird Johnson days, automotive scrapyards set up pretty much wherever they pleased. They had a job to do, and who cared if the piles of cars to be crushed didn't look like a field of fresh-blooming roses? Which is why one could set up at the base of the Oakland side of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, as seen here in this 1959 photo captured by Michael's neighbor, Al (Buzz) Tschantz-Hahn, whose work with AAA would often take him across the bridge. What do you see here?
Albuquerque, New Mexico, 1972
Did you ever notice that for all the wrong turns he took in Albuquerque, Bugs never actually ended up there? Photographer Danny Lyon, however did end up there in April 1972 while taking photos for the Documerica project, and while there he snapped this pic of Gaede's Wrecking Yard. It appears Gaede's is no longer around – at least, not under that name – so we have no clue where in Albuquerque it was. What do you see here?
Santa Fe, New Mexico, 1972
We've heard plenty of times about farmers out West using old cars to shore up riverbanks, or using car frames as fence posts, but this shot by Danny Lyon, taken for the EPA's Documerica project in May 1972 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, shows cars and trucks stacked to create a fence. The photo description doesn't give an exact location, but there's at least enough detail here to identify the cars and trucks. Carspotters, what do you see?
Portland, Oregon, February 1974
After coming across David Falconer's shots of the fuel crisis last week, we spent some time trawling through his other photos for the EPA's Documerica project and found these two junkyard scenes taken in February 1974. "Stacked autos are crushed and shipped to Japan, then return to the United States as Toyotas and Datsuns to begin the cycle once again," Falconer wrote. At least he captured them for posterity before that happened. Carspotters, what do you see here?
Sweden, 1960s
We didn't set out looking for an image to coincide with the news of Saab's bankruptcy, but when we came across the above Swedish junkyard scene, posted by 731132 on the H.A.M.B.'s Vintage shots from days gone by thread, we figured it'd be an appropriate shot for our carspotters to pore over today. What do you see here?
Anaheim, California, 1966
According to the UCLA Library Digital Collections caption for this photo, it was taken in March 1966 on Anaheim's Harbor Boulevard, which we can see has changed quite a bit, likely thanks to Disney's influence. Melodyland is no longer, replaced by a shopping center, and the signs are all now much smaller, less in-your-face. At least Denny's appears to be in the exact same place. Carspotters, what do you see here?
This shot, which we found over at Le Container, has absolutely nothing to do with the above UCLA shot, and comes with no information regarding its date and location, so we thought we'd include it as a bonus carspotting treat today. Besides, it's been far too long since Art Fink had a Falcon to spot in one of our street scenes/parking lot scenes/junkyard scenes.
Junkyard USA
Junkyard shots make good alternatives for our street scene series, as we saw from Charles Cushman's Evansville, Indiana, shot. The above scene, posted by Dog427435 on the H.A.M.B.'s Vintage shots from days gone by thread, didn't come with any information on the date and place, but we can take a stab at the former by noting what cars are stacked here and approximately how old they appear to be. What do you see here?
UPDATE (20.September 2013): Finally found a source, date, and location for the photo. Photographer Nick DeWolf took it in August 1971 in Emeryville, California.
Evansville, Indiana, 1952
Vintage street scenes and parking lot scenes are all well and good, but for the ultimate carspotting exercise, we're going to have to head to the junkyard, where Charles Cushman spotted this mound of junked cars in Evansville, Indiana, in October 1952. There's plenty to see here, so tell us what catches your eye.

I think I am a combination of paradoxes. I love people and am friendly and outgoing, however I am really shy. I have great compassion and am a good listener, but am also very private. I have great pride in all that I've accomplished, but am uncomfortable accepting praise. However, I am very strong in my value beliefs. Honesty, compassion, generosity, passion for life, consideration, intelligence, a sense of curiosity, a huge love of fun and a sense of humor and a respect for all others and the environment are all very important to me.I am a watercolor painter and drawing and painting teacher. In my political world, I am very liberal and will march for that which I believe. Although I am chronologically older, I am very comfortable with the child within me.The child appreciates the wisdom of the adult; and the adult loves the freedom of the child.If there is a man out there who would like to share my world of art, love of travel, classical, jazz and folk music, actively exploring the outdoors, walking the world's beaches, always searching for opportunities to learn, an appreciation for the warmth of family,and a willingness to share your world with me then I would love to meet you.

Code Indigo – Take The Money And Run
Take the Money and Run' reflects the history of this enigmatic band with a clever choice of songs, old and new, that also feature many of the bands' recent musicians; presented with a 16 page booklet containing various line-up pics and notes on the project by David Wright.
The CD contains two expertly Dave Massey crafted remixes from 'TimeCode': the pulsating 'Eden to Corruption' and a stripped bare 'Call of the Earth'. 'Return to Gaia' is a new version of a track previously only available on a limited edition European compilation. 'Ashes and Snow' is a brand new piece which was unable to be included on 'MELTdown'.
'A Question of Answers' sees Wright and Fox joined by vocalist Carys to revisit and re-record in the studio a beautiful piece previously only available on the Derby Cathedral CD. This track, both artists agree, best sums up Code Indigo. The final 30 minute epic is a live track from 2007 featuring 6 interlinked pieces from 'For Whom the Bell', 'Uforia', 'TimeCode' and 'Chill'.
To Hear and Purchase this CD please click on the cover. Thank you.
Code Indigo – MELTdown
Code Indigo is regarded as one of Europe's premiere electronic music bands and with MELTdown, they've delivered an aptly named follow up to the 2007 release 'Chill' and it has already been described as; "A majestic tour de force".
Helmed by veteran UK synth maestro David Wright, co founder and sole survivor from the original 1994 line-up, and producer Dave Massey, the new look Code Indigo continues its own tradition of producing imaginative and thematic keyboard/guitar based chill-out music.
While comparisons have been made with instrumental 'Pink Floyd' and 'Art of Noise', the Code Indigo sound and style remains totally original, unique and above all, contemporary.
'MELTdown' is an epic, concept style musical journey. There are 16 beautifully conceived and highly evocative interlinked tracks that cleverly pay homage to all previous Code Indigo albums while remaining inventive and original. It is moody and topical electronica featuring some of the most atmospheric and thought provoking chill out style electronica you're likely to hear anywhere.
To Hear and Purchase this CD please click on the cover. Thank you.
Code Indigo – In Concert (Double live album)
This stunning double album is already being hailed as the best Code Indigo work too date.
Compiled from the groups live appearances in the UK and Europe between 2004 and 2006, culminating in the e-live festival in Holland and the UK Fisher Theatre appearance, "In Concert" is the definitive record of a band in perfect harmony, performing at the peak of their combined creative and musical talents.
"On a scales of 1-10 this has a "Wow" factor of 11 – absolutely brilliant!" MM
"A superbly performed and technically inspired recording". TC
"Probably the best music ever from Code Indigo" E.D.
To Hear and Purchase this CD please click on the cover. Thank you.
Trinity – Music for Angels
Angels have featured in many fictitious stories and art forms over the decades and this Music for Angels CD is in the same vein.
68 minutes of drifting meditation music that's in a class of its own.
This is classic instrumental music, where the three musicians have combined their respective talents to present a unique vision of what 'drifting meditation music' should be. Beautiful, delicate pads and strings intertwine with gentle lead lines underpinned by gorgeous acoustic guitar work.
There's superb interaction between the musicians along the way to, from the romantic refrains of 'Loves Purest Light' through the gently uplifting 'Angels in the Sunlight' and into the thought provoking 'Eternal Reincarnation'. This is new age meditation music to savour!
To Hear and Purchase this CD please click on the cover. Thank you.
David Wright – Sines of Life (Volume 1)
David's 20th solo album is a melodic and gently rhythmic journey highlighting some of his recent live UK and USA performances alongside new studio recordings.
The album features guest musicians including Ian Boddy and Klaus Hoffmann-Hoock and the live music arrangements are completely different versions of the studio originals.
CD comes with a 12 page booklet with photos, text written by David plus a commentary on David's 20 years in the business penned by Steve Roberts.
Nigel helped compose and plays guitar on the track 3.A.M.
To Hear and Purchase this CD please click on the cover. Thank you.
David Wright – Dreams and Distant Moonlight
David continues to produce music of a high standard and this epic new studio album is no exception and may well be regarded as one of his finest works.
Fifteen interlinked tracks spanning a colossal 77 minutes of music that is stylistically a cross between "Walking With Ghosts" and "Continuum".
The album features Andy Lobban and Nigel Turner- Heffer on lead and bass guitars respectively and there are also some vocal textures that will no doubt draw comparison with Code Indigo.
To Hear and Purchase this CD please click on the cover. Thank you.
Code Indigo – The MELTdown Concert DVD (Visuals Produced and Edited by Nigel Turner-Heffer)
'The MELTdown Concert' DVD showcases the extraordinary graphics backdrop that accompanied Code Indigo's 2013 appearance at the E-Day festival in Holland. Code Indigo performed 'MELTdown' live only once, so while this DVD is not a 'live' DVD in the usual sense, it is an opportunity to view the graphics interlaced with live footage and hear the extended 'MELTdown' concert.
For those who were there, this DVD will rekindle fond memories. For those who weren't, we hope it will give you the taste of an unforgettable audio visual experience. 'The MELTdown Concert DVD' presents the album in extended format. It is an original, moody and topical electronic/rock concept album and at the time of going to press it is one of the top 5 CDs in the prestigious German Schallwelle Music Award's "Best International CD" category.
To Hear and Purchase this DVD please click on the cover. Thank you.

Oregon's Matthew Centrowitz wins 1,500; Becca Friday fifth, Jordan Hasay eight in women's 1,500
DES MOINES, Iowa – Oregon junior Matthew Centrowitz won the NCAA men's title in the 1,500 meters at Drake Stadium on Saturday with a time of 3:42.54. That gives the UO men 25 points in this meet.
In the women's 1,500, UO sophomore Becca Friday placed fifth at 4:16.76, and a distraught Jordan Hasay struggled to eighth at 4:17.67.
LSU now leads the women's team race with 43.5 points, followed by Texas A&M at 39 and Oregon 38.
The Tigers, however, have no more scoring opportunities. The Ducks still have Claire Michel and Lanie Thompson in the 3,000 steeplechase, plus a 4×400 relay, where they will go head-to-head against A&M, which has 400-meter champion Jessica Beard on the anchor leg.
Curtis Anderson covered UO track and field for The Register-Guard from 1990-96, and again since 2005. He covered the 2012 Olympic Games in London, in addition to the U.S. Olympic Track & Field Trials in New Orleans (1992), Atlanta (1996) and Hayward Field (2008 and 2012). He is the winner of the Jesse Abramson Award, presented by the Track & Field Writers of America for excellence in coverage in 2008.
