Let's face it, everyone loves Continental GP4000s tyres (tires if you will). And yes they are great. They grip well, last for 1000's of km's, don't puncture easily and best yet, they are easy to mount. BUT… if you had to look for something different, what else is out there? Winter is approaching in Australia so it might be time check your rubber.
Well firstly you need to know that there are lots of specialist bicycle tyre manufacturers which may not have the budget to sponsor a World Tour team but deserve a chance. A lot of the World Tour and Pro-Continental teams are swapping to clincher tyres for ease of use and cost, making the options below as viable for you as them. But make sure you are buying a tyre to suit your needs – terrain, riding style, etc. Tyres cannot be super fast and light and be THE most durable tyre. There are trade-offs with every one so figure out what you want most from your bike and your tyres.
Below are just a sample but some of the best available for a variety of needs. Don't believe all the marketing, sometimes you might just have to try them out!
It's no secret these are my favourite tyre to buy. They are made in Japan and the company is owned by Panasonic (Panasonic is on the tyre wall – they make good tv's right so the tyres have to be good?!). Panaracer has been making a name for itself in the MTB circles for years. The company started in 1953 and from 1978 exclusively made bicycle tyres. They simply make a good quality product without (too many) fancy acronyms and silly technology. Their Smoke and Dart XC tyres are popular to this day but I think their road tyres are the hidden gems.
Type D (formerly the Duro) $50-$60
– This tyre has twice the tread thickness of its big brother the Type A. It's designed as the ultimate all-rounder with sufficient protection, grip and weight to do everything. It has Panaracers protection – PT under the tread but not much on the sides and features a dual compound which means grips in ALL conditions! I use to it train, race and commute on and will not use another tyre. Enough said.
Type A (formally the Extreme Evo3) $50-$60
– This is their flagship racing tyre. It's light at 210g, has the PT protection from bead to bead and uses the dual compound ZSG for grip in all conditions. This WAS my tyre of choice until I cut open the Duro and saw the same compounds and protection with twice the tread thickness. But this tyre definately "feels" faster and is certainly a few grams lighter. Worth using on your race alloy clinchers or Sunday bike.
Closer PT $50-$60
– The Closer is your training tyre. It's been designed to go the distance and not cause any hassle. I haven't used it because the Type D will easily do 10,000kms but the Closer PT (with the PT puncture protection) is popular in many circles.
Challenge are Italian and are making a name for producing high quality road and CX tubulars and 'open tubulars' – simply a clincher tyre. The company was bought, re-sold, etc but effectively started as the Challenge we know in about 2000. As the tyres are made in Thailand, there is still a very 'hands-on' process in making every tyre.
Criterium Open $80-$90
– This tyre in a great choice for racing with it's super fast tread pattern, high TPI and high quality casing. This tyre is designed to ride fast and grip tight.
Gara Open $60-$70
– The Gara is your high quality training tyre. Great weight at 250g, high rubber thread count at 240 TPI and tread pattern designed to work equally as well in the wet as dry. It's one of the smoothest riding training tyres available.
Way too many good tyres to list here but below are some of best. Vittoria started making tyres more than 20 years ago and are produced in Thailand – like most tyres these days. Annual production is 7 million…. Vittoria sponsor the AIS, Cycling Australia, Drapac, Cofidis, Euskaltel, Rabobank, ok ok you get the picture……
Rubino Pro $50
– This tyre is value-for-money excellence. Chosen for it's durability and comfortable grip, it's a popular choice for amateur and racers alike. It's good in the wet and comes in lots of colours if that's your kind of thing. 225g and worth a look!
Open Corsa EVO CX $80-$110
– These babies are fast! At 210g they are light and the polycotton/kevlar casing means they ride smoother than almost anything else yet have the grip and durabilty in all conditions. If you want the best, this is for you. And yes you can get the World-Tour-conquering tubular version for your race wheels too.
Hutchinson are French. They have been making tyres since 1890 in France. Worth checking out because of this? Yes. Tour de France riders in the 50's were winning Le Tour on Hutchinson and their list of revolutionary developments has gotten us to where we are today – fast, reliable bicycle tyres. In 2006 Hutchinson started making a real push for tubeless tyres in road which hasn't taken off… yet. I've mounted some Hutchinson Fusion 2 tubeless to a new wheelset so I'll review those soon.
Fusion 3 clincher $60-$70
– This is the do it all tyre. It's classed as a competition tyre yet it has Protech anti-puncture and a triple compound tread for improved performance and grip. The simle fact that Hutchinson have been making tyres for so long has meant they know a thing or two about rubber compounds and durability. Bonus, it looks good to.
Atom Comp $70-$80
– At 195g this is light. Nearly 10% lighter than it's competition yet it performs as well as the rest. It uses a single compound tread and simple puncture protection casing meaning you simply get an excellent light tyre. Maybe not the best option if you ride a lot of rough terrain but perfectly viable for most of us who tend to frequent flat well surfaced urban roads.
Veloflex are Italian and make race tyres. They are worth a mention because you get what you pay for. High quality materials and light casings = fast tyres. They call Clincher tyres 'Open tubular' so they are a little bit fancy and a little bit old fashioned. But if they are good enough for Thor Hushovd or Tom Boonen….
Corsa 23 $80-$90
– The Corsa 23 is basically the black version of the Master 23 'open tubular'. At 195g they are among the lightest racing clinchers you can buy and equally match the Vittoria Open Corsa EVO CX in rubber thread count at 320 TPI. This means the tyre is thinner, more flexible and tend to have a lower rolling resistance. But like all modern tyres, they feature a substantial anti-puncture layer to stop those rocks and glass bits finding their way through. This tyre probably won't last as long BUT that's to be expected from a high-end FAST tyre. You can't be everything to everyone…
This company started making tyres in 1946 for cars, agriculture and industry. The company is as popular today for is high performance car tyres as it is for its high performance bicycle versions.
Fortezza Tricomp $80-$90
– This flagship model claims to do it all (I've never used one to prove this) but this is the best clincher Vredstein can muster. Very low rolling resistance, maximum grip and protection. Sounds good to me.
Schwalbe make tyres for bicycles, scooters, wheelchairs. They are a family run business that have made tyres since 1973. Having a team like RadioshackNissanTrek on board now means the tyres get pushed to the limits. As popular in the MTB circuts as road, these are a mechanics dream to mount and ride.
Ultremo ZX $70-$80
– Schwalbe claim this is the best Ultremo ever. Must be good as there are no less than 6 individual Ultremo models. This is the best all-rounder best known for it's easy mounting, grip and speed.
Durano $50-$60
– The Durano is the high-mileage Schwalbe tyre. It's cheap, easy to mount and durable. At 235g it's light and the dual compount tread offers confidence on those wet days.
Lots of options and really just the tip of the iceberg. But remember, just because your local bike shop stocks them or your mate says they are the best, opinions on bicycles tyres are varied and bias. Best bet is to try some out for yourself. If you "feel" faster then odds are you will go faster. Puncture protection will be debated for decades but bottom line, if you keep getting punctures try a better quality tyre (yes probably more expensive) next time. It's hard to make the fastest, most durable and gripiest(?!) tyre but 2 out of 3 is, so take your pick.

Here's the link to the hint:
Does anyone see the newspaper image when you click the "full screen" button - meaning the problem is with my web browser (FF v44), OS (Win10), or connection (Comcast ISP)?
I have found that I am running the same family tree on both my husbands side and my side because there is a common family member in both our trees (by marriage). How do I get the two trees to connect to each other because I am getting lots of matches as a result on both trees within my site.
Dear Mrs.Mattison,
Thank you for your post here on the forum.
If you have two family trees with a common ancestor yet in two different sites then you may wish to simply merge the two trees together and then delete the one that is no longer required. Two trees from individual sites can not be linked together as they act individually.
To assit you with the merge process please take look at the following link I have provided for you as I am sure this will help you.
Once you have merged both trees and then possibly wish to delete the now unwanted tree then please take alook at the following two links I have provided for you as I am sure these will help.
Trusting this has proven useful to you.
Kind Regards,
MyHeritage Team.
I have a tree for my family and a tree for my wife's family.
I have included my parents and siblings and in-laws, and our children in my wife's tree as well as mine; but our descendants go in my tree (just because of the surname and they have to go somewhere...)
I just ignore matches that go outside those guidelines.
It works well; but please ask, if I have not explained it well...
thanks for the reply. I understand what you have done, maybe i did not explain it properly. I have only one huge family tree on my site, and it covers both mine and my husbands families (plus the extended families) and there is one person who appears in both our sides (my great grandfather). The programme does not allow me to physically connect two people, who are the same persons, inside the tree. Does that make more sense
My fathers date on the summary is age 9, the 1910 census record is showing 9/12.
He was a baby in 1910- Mom was born in 1910. I know for sure they were both about the same age. They were both on the yearbook staff at Libbey high in Toledo. Saw that record.
I just purchased a Premium Plus account. After I do a records search and the list comes up, when i click on "view record" I get a screen telling me I have to pay an additional $7.96/month data subscription to view the record. I thought that was included in the purchase price for the Premium Plus account?
I was planning on changing from Ancestry to MyHeritage, but if I have the pay the additional data subscription fee, that makes the cost way higher than Ancestry.
What am I doing wrong? Thanks for the help.
It appears to me that unlike other services like Ancestry.com and Genealogy.com in which you pay one fee for all their services whether or not you use them, MyHeritage.com allows you to pay only for what you actually use. If growing your family tree is important to you, then you can subscribe to that service alone without having to also subscribe to the data services.
I happen to be more interested in international research and documentation so the data services are FAR more important to me at this time than the Family Tree service. I save quite a bit of money because I pay only for what I want/use.
It may seem to some like MyHeritage is "nickel-diming" us, but when you look at it critically, you realize the value, imho.
Dear Mrs.Foster,
Thank you for your question here on the forum and I will be happy to explain.
When you upgrade one of your family sites to a MyHeritage Premium Plus family site subscription you get:
* Unlimited number of people to grow your family tree.
* Unlimited storage for family photos, videos, and documents.
* Priority email support to get answers quickly.

The collections available to you as a PremiumPlus family site subscriber are as follows.
1. MyHeritage Family sites
2. MyHeritage members
3. MyHeritage family tree individuals
4. MyHeritage photos
Through the SuperSearch we also provide access to external records however to view these records requires payment and therefore you are being asked to pay for an extra subscription.
The subscription that will allow you access to these external records is a Data subscription.
A data subscription is an annual subscription that allows you full access SuperSearch and Record Matches.
SuperSearch is MyHeritage's research tool that allows you to search in approximately 5 billion records records from around the world. SuperSearch includes exclusive records from all over the world that, in most cases, are only available on MyHeritage.
Record Matches automatically matches the people in your family tree to the billions of records in SuperSearch and notifies you of matches. A data subscription allows you to confirm or reject matches, view records and download them.
Data subscriptions is offered on a yearly basis.
I hope this has proven useful to you.
I am researching Cornelius Sleiter- Schleuter, his wife Johanna (Adrianna) ?. He was born about 1800 in Holland and she was born about 1799 in Holland. They have a daugher-Mary (Sleiter) Harvey married to Wolfer Harvey. Anyone have any information or photos of these people.
I am also looking for Wolfer Harvey's parents. Wolfer is born in Amsterdam, Holland on May 1831 and Mary is born abt. 1830 ?? Holland maybe in a town called Burinisse, Holland (Zeeland). Any more information on this family is appreciated as well as photos if there are any.
Thank you in advance for helping me on these families.
this will give you a start in the Amsterdam Archives in English.
Most Dutch sites can elect English/Dutch language options.
Good luck
We'll see what they have.
Have a good New Year
I am certain that there are errors in our tree regarding and many others William Gooch (1717) and the family one generation above and below. I am lost with finding valid, accurate information. Other users have blindly confirmed matches that are obviously wrong, compounding the rate of error through out MyHeritage community.
Can anyonehelp validate the family of William Gooch.
they relate to my family as Elizabeth Gooch (born Jouett) is the mother of Birth of daughter: Elizabeth Cease (born Gooch) Hanover, Virginia, United States 1748
What further infomation are you looking for in regards to Leroy Estor TOMS (1903 - 1971) and Leona Mae GREEN (1910 - 1996) that you have on your Ancestry tree, as the parents of Franklin Donald TOMS (1932 - 2007) who marries Marie Irene Lynette DION (1932 - 200)?
I'm here looking for information on the de Lioncourt family. If you know anything please message me.
Thank you,
Since you have only one entry in your tree, which I suspect is yourself there is little hope of anyone giving you any other information.
As you have not specified who you do know of? When that person lived and more importantly where in the world, there is not much that anyone can do to help you.
I regrettably have not found any information.

Faith & Inspiration | God has entrusted Christians with the gospel, but He hasn't left us on our own
I've often wondered why humans are entrusted with sex and with children, since we make such a mess of both. But what other way will we learn to handle both pleasure and responsibility, much less continue the human race? Whenever I question God's ways of accomplishing His purposes, I always run up against the question of alternate ways. Every alternative has been tried and comes up short; God's way, when undertaken in good faith (and by good faith), turns out to be best by far.
Still I wonder sometimes about an even greater responsibility: "[J]ust as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please man but to please God" (1 Thessalonians 2:4). "Entrusted with the gospel" was fine for Paul; he'd seen Jesus face to face and spent a vacation in the Third Heaven. But now that Paul is no longer with us, who is "we"? In my imagination I look around, see no likely candidates, point hesitantly to myself: "Who—me?"
Surely there are better ways to spread the gospel than entrusting it to wispy creatures. The conspicuous flubs and failures of charismatic Christian leaders (Doug Phillips, Mark Driscoll, etc.) make me wonder about alternatives. What about periodic angel appearances—not too often, or it would get old, but once in a generation? Or angelic gospel bureaus scattered throughout the world, offering weekend retreats? Jesus could even come back to lead a revival every few hundred years, or whenever He's ready (we'll let Him decide). How about a gospel refresher course, a 30-day Jesus crusade, with direct-from-heaven preaching and miraculous signs on the side? How about a church taught by the best, with no doctrinal error or Scripture twisting, just the unvarnished truth. Straight from the horse's mouth, so to speak. Why not?
A few considerations:
Direct-from-heaven application of the gospel seems as if it would be more effective, but Jesus met plenty of opposition when walking among us, even accompanied by signs and wonders. In writing to the Thessalonians, Paul speaks of the gospel in the midst of much conflict, out of the frying pan of Philippi (an arrest, a beating, and a night in jail) into the fire of Ephesus (another riot). He was only one step removed from the risen Christ, and did his share of miracles, yet still people disbelieved and strayed into error.
I am sometimes stymied by the great gulf between my experience and everyone else's. How do I communicate to the world what is totally unworldly? How can that gap possibly be closed? But imagine God thinking such thoughts. Look at the great gulf between His Spirit and our flesh. How does He bridge that? We know how: by fusing Spirit with flesh. He "entrusted" Himself with the gospel by embodying the gospel. He complimented our flesh by taking it on; He glorified our bodies by rising again in a body; His righteousness becomes ours.
And so does His mission. "He has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers in the divine nature …" (2 Peter 1:4). Partaking in the divine nature means we are partners in the divine project—not only recipients of Trinitarian love, but agents of that love. I've even thought of having business cards printed up: Janie B. Cheaney/ Agent of Reconciliation/ (2 Corinthians 5:18).
Participation in the divine nature means I'm not on my own. He fuses my flesh with His Spirit. I love reading about the work of the Holy Spirit in the book of Acts, but Acts is not just an exciting story—it's a continuing story. Today is the day of salvation, beginning ca. a.d. 30; the work that began then goes on, uninterrupted, minus a few show-stopping miraculous signs. We have the same Spirit as Peter and Paul, equally "approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel." He is our seal of approval, of adoption, of authority. Authorized personnel only? That's us. That's me.

This is my second attempt at a city. The basic style is the same as for Iramir, but now I'm trying to be more accurate in the placement of buildings and streets; which is easier because this city is way smaller (1px = 2m).
The part I have drawn is the "lower" city, it should be a mix of poor and working/middle class. I tried to convey the idea through colours, house size and streets path.
Suggestions and criticism wanted.

A few Points They've Interested In Coming From The WomanEach person is consumed by anyone, In my opinion he / she will begin that will filter any talk, declaration plus relationships with you by way of a few important concerns:
Can i make the woman satisfied?
Could possibly I have confidence in the woman with ALMOST EVERYTHING My organization is?
Many point out adult males you should not take it on today however that may be definitely far from the truth. Both males and females however find betrothed. Beneficial both males and females find betrothed. Many wed and a few you should not plus In my opinion I have worked out ways to discern which in turn technique anyone is in the direction. You can even look while in the reflector plus find in which that you're in most of these.
Your root belonging to the matter is beneficial adult males wed beneficial ladies -- ladies that make these folks think needed (respected plus treasured), to who these people believe that they'll make satisfied (the lady discloses appreciation typically plus graciously) plus to who he / she thinks the guy can have confidence in (competent to always be naked and not ashamed).
Now i am appearing duplicated keeping this article. Everybody has requires. That may be pure. Owning requires is just not appearing needy.
I have realized quite a few ladies that give off these beneficial vibes separately and a few that give off many a few. I have realized ladies that give off probably none of those vibes. Instead, many ladies relate towards the earth points just like "I you should not need anyone", "I can never always be satisfied" plus "I can't be dependable. " One example is, it is claimed that a person is not going to stick to women to who he / she cannot make satisfied. Seems like to use regardless of whether they may be witout a doubt betrothed.

I'm going to ask this here instead of the roadie forum because I want the perspective of 50+'ers vs that of 20 yr old racers, or racer wannabes.
I'm 50, and I want to ride a century. I've not been able to do it yet due to mostly my body's inability to stay on a bike for enough time. I have a bad back that protests when I'm in the saddle for too long. But recently, I had to replace my shoes, and my feet are now the 1st thing that starts hurting (at about the 1hr point). Well, actually, one hot spot on one foot, so my feet are apparently not symmetrical. I'm not a racer, but since I want to be able to ride a century, I AM interested in long term comfort and efficiency. My new shoes are Shimano R087's, which I think are about as good as I'm going to get in terms of fit, because of my wide feet. I bought them at a shop, and tried on several different brands, and these Shimano's were the widest and best fitting. So that likely means finding an insole that works. After a little research, I find that this could be a $200 proposition, if I have to try several different brands. As an alternative, I've considered just using platform pedals and sneakers, which I use with no problem on my commuter. So the questions become:
1) How much efficiency do you gain with stiff soled road shoes vs softer sneakers & platform pedals?
2) How much effort will it likely take to find a suitable solution to get my shoes comfortable enough? Keep in mind that I'll likely need something that I can custom form to my foot, or something adjustable.

SHEFFIELD LAKE — Seventy years after Sgt. Paul Risko was killed in World War II, residents of the French town he was helping liberate will honor the Sheffield Lake resident.
The July 30 ceremony in Pont-de-la-Roque in northern France also will honor the French teenager who found Risko's body. Claude le Souquet, now 87, will receive a flag that flew over the U.S. Capitol on Memorial Day honoring Risko.
The flag, and two flags that flew over the state Capitol on Memorial Day, were presented Monday to Paula Forma, Risko's niece. The presentation took place at the office of U.S. Rep. Marcy Kaptur, D-Toledo, in Lorain City Hall. The flags were presented to Forma by state Rep. Matt Lundy, D-Elyria, and state Rep. Dan Ramos, D-Lorain.
The Risko family immigrated from Eastern Europe. Paula Forma said the family moved from Lakewood to Sheffield Lake in the 1930s after Risko's older brother, Johnny Risko — a heavyweight boxer who fought Gene Tunney in 1925 — bought property in the town. Paul Risko, 26, was a Brookside High School graduate and saxophonist in a dance band.
Risko is believed to have been the first member of the U.S. Army's 6th Armored Division's 86th Cavalry Reconnaissance Squadron killed in the war. The squadron landed in France on July 24, 1944, according to the 86th's military history.
"We are not doing anything right now," Risko wrote in a July 26 letter to his mother. "Just waiting for the bell to ring to start the first round."
On July 29, the squadron was reconnoitering crossings of the Seine River when a German shell destroyed a half-track — an armored vehicle with tank treads — on a bridge, killing Risko and another soldier.
Forma said her mother had unsuccessfully tried to get information on Risko's death until she saw an item about the 86th in The Morning Journal in 2004. It connected them to le Souquet and Pont-de-la-Roque officials who commemorate the liberation anniversary.
Forma visited the town in 2006 and met le Souquet, who has written a book about the liberation. Forma was shown a plaque on a rock on the bridge honoring Risko and was taken to the cemetery where he is buried.
Forma said the experience was memorable. "I don't think anyone's alive who knew him personally and to remember him and keep him in their hearts and minds is remarkable," she said.
Peter Paslawski, Forma's husband, said in preparation for the upcoming trip, he asked County Commissioner Ted Kalo for a letter of recognition they could bring to le Souquet. That led to Kalo contacting Ohio's congressional and state delegations and the flag presentation.
"This went way beyond our expectations," Paslawski said.

Four Strong Winds: Ian and Sylvia
by John Einarson
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Being the long-awaited biography of the folk-singing duo, with considerable enough input from the principals to merit their inclusion as authors. The author has done a fine job and one can complain only around the edges. The co-operation and participation of the subjects has obvious advantages, but it usually, as here, leads to journalistic probing stopping exactly where the Tysons want it to, though a few extremely pregnant nuggets do make it as far as footnotes. Any book about one's favorite musicians almost always has a horrifying moment when the musicians and/or the author disrespects the reader's favorite song. For me, here that came when Sylvia called my favorite song "The only thing we ever did that I'm ashamed of" and the author chimed in with "saccharine". Conversely, the author is a little bit too taken with the duo's uninteresting output individually after their mid-70's breakup.
References to this work on external resources.
Wikipedia in English (2)
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 077103038X, Hardcover)An acclaimed music historian brings us the long-awaited story of Ian & Sylvia - marking the first time that the legendary folk duo has endorsed a biography of their groundbreaking career.
Their classic "Four Strong Winds" is widely considered to be one of the great songs of all time. Bob Dylan, Gordon Lightfoot, Neil Young, Leonard Cohen, and Joni Mitchell count among their admirers. Their music, including hits like "You Were On My Mind" and "Someday Soon," has been recorded by everyone from Dylan, Joan Baez, and Johnny Cash to Sarah McLachlan and The Tragically Hip. Their influence on music - both in Canada and the United States - has endured over generations and surpassed genres. Yet until now, we have known little of the story behind the folk sensations Ian & Sylvia. In Four Strong Winds, John Einarson takes us back to Ian & Sylvia's early days in Toronto coffeehouses, to their experiences at the heart of the vibrant 1960s Greenwich Village folk scene, and beyond, as their personal and musical partnership continued to change and evolve. Based on Ian and Sylvia Tyson's own personal reflections as well as on the recollections of contemporaries, associates, and admirers, Four Strong Winds is the definitive account of this iconic musical duo and a window on a fascinating period in music history.

USD-JPY was on the decline since the early modest pop which came immediately following the claims and durables data. Since then, the pairing drifted to 109.53 lows from 110.22 highs.

I'm in the process of purchasing a Worksman cruiser for myself for my 30th birthday and want to also get a stand for indoor use (since my birthday is in January and I live in Maine).

BERKELEY, Calif. - For a team desperate for playmakers, Kyle Williams was a find Saturday.
The Arizona State junior had a game-high 164 all-purpose yards, including a 30-yard touchdown reception and 125 yards on kickoff and punt returns. He fumbled out of bounds after a 32-yard punt return early in the fourth quarter that gave ASU possession at the Cal 45-yard line.
From there, the Sun Devils fell one missed big play short of pulling with three points in an eventual 24-14 loss.
"I came off the motion, and he had about a 10-yard cushion on me so I was able to get inside and from there I just had good blocking," Williams said of his second-quarter touchdown catch that trimmed a 17-0 Cal lead.
"When it's late in the game and we're trying to get field position, even if they're close to you, you like to take it (on a return) and get what you can."
ASU's offense began to stabilize in the second quarter on a drive using two tight ends, Andrew Pettes and Stanley Malamala, for blocking.
The Sun Devils put together a 70-yard drive on runs by Keegan Herring, back from a hamstring injury, and Dimitri Nance before quarterback Rudy Carpenter connected with Williams for the score.
"With those two tights, you've got a better chance to run the football," ASU coach Dennis Erickson said. "It also probably gives us a better chance to throw it, too, because they've got to start bringing guys down in there. In the fourth quarter, we were forced out of it, particularly when they jumped up 24-7."
Junior linebacker Mike Nixon had his first career interception on a screen pass similar to those that Cal ran successfully for much of the first half.
"They were screening us to death in the first half," Nixon said. "We kind of read one there, and Paul Unga didn't allow the running back to get out. It was pretty much open field. If I had any athletic ability, we would have got six (points) there.
"Until you see the speed they run it (screen game), the way they set it up, it's tough for us to make plays. Once we got that interception, it kind of got them to go away from it."
Safety Troy Nolan led ASU with eight tackles. True freshman defensive tackle Lawrence Guy, making his first start, had four tackles for losses out of his six stops.
��Cal had three sacks, two by defensive end Cameron Jordan of Chandler and a major hit on Carpenter by linebacker Zack Follett.

Granger Construction Company is adding yet another "first" to its list of specialty concrete experiences.
Serving as concrete subcontractor to Walsh Construction, Granger will provide 24,000 CY of concrete at 17 different buildings, including 100,000 SF of pervious concrete, as part of the City of Ann Arbor's Waste Water Treatment Plant Facilities Renovations project.
On the surface, this project may look like any other heavy concrete project, and much of it is, except the part that calls for a 12 inch thick pervious concrete mat beneath the structural concrete slabs within eight different tanks/structures at the plant.
Granger is certainly no stranger to concrete. In fact, the firm's General Contracting Division pours, on average, about 20,000 CY of concrete a year and is considered one of the best concrete contractors in Michigan. In 2011, they were recognized for turning concrete into an art form after producing one of the first examples in the country of self-consolidating concrete in an architectural application at Michigan State University's Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum. That cutting-edge work drew rave reviews from MSU as well as concrete experts from around the country.
But the Ann Arbor WWTP marks the first time Granger has been involved in a project where pervious concrete is used. Another "first" that Granger's Darryl Massa, Executive Vice President of Operations, is looking forward to adding to the firm's specialty concrete repertoire.
Pervious concrete (also called porous concrete, permeable concrete and porous pavement) resembles Rice Krispie Treats. It's a special type of concrete with a high porosity that allows water from precipitation and other sources to pass directly through. Carefully controlled amounts of water and cementitious materials are used to create a paste that forms a thick coating around aggregate particles. A pervious concrete mixture contains little or no sand, creating a substantial void content. Using sufficient paste to coat and bind the aggregate particles together creates a system of highly permeable, interconnected voids that drains quickly.
Pervious concrete is traditionally used in parking areas, residential streets with light traffic and pedestrian walkways. It's an important application for sustainable construction and is one of many low impact development techniques used to protect water quality since pervious pavements reduce storm runoff and minimize the amount of pollutants (such as motor oil, anti-freeze and other automobile fluids) typically contained in storm water.
At the Ann Arbor WWTP Facility, however, the application for this specialty concrete is not so traditional. Due to the project site's proximity to the Huron River, the water table is very high, causing elevated concerns about the potential for tank flotation. When tanks are installed in areas with high water tables, or in areas subject to flooding, the installation must include measures that prevent tanks from floating out of the ground.
The owner is banking on the use of pervious concrete to help mitigate that risk during times when tanks are emptied for cleaning, increasing the risk of buoyancy, or float. The idea is that by constructing a layer of pervious concrete beneath the structural concrete base of the tanks/buildings, and then casting pressure relief valves into the structural concrete slabs, the water will be able to flow freely within the pervious layer and, if need be, up through the relief valves and into the tanks. This would reduce water build up around the tank and increase the weight of the tank itself, thereby reducing the risk of float.
Just like any kind of specialty concrete, however, mixing and installing pervious concrete is a balancing act. If the mixture is too wet, the holes will clog up and the concrete won't drain as well as intended. If the mixture is too dry, it will become like gravel and reduce the structural integrity of the concrete.
Rob Lange, Granger's Project Manager on the job, says getting pervious in place will also prove to be much more difficult than your typical concrete pour. In fact, because pervious concrete is a low-slump mixture (it will be placed at a 1" slump for the Ann Arbor project), it cannot be poured, or pumped, into place at all. Instead, Granger will utilize a conveyer to take the concrete from the truck to the placement location. To make things even more complicated, pervious, because it is a drier mix, has a much shorter window for placing than traditional concrete. And instead of using floats and trowels as finishing tools, pervious concrete requires screeding and rolling.
Some liken a pervious pour to that of a long assembly line, with the only difference being that the crew members are much closer together. With traditional concrete, the whole slab is placed before the finishing operation begins. With pervious concrete, the placement, finishing and curing is all done at the same time. Typically, there is one crew member near the conveyor directing the concrete to its location. The screed operators are next in line, screeding the pervious concrete to the proper elevation and compacting it. Then, the finishing crew must cross roll the concrete to give it the right continuity (traditional surface finishing is eliminated to prevent filling of surface voids). And all of this must be done within a 15-30 minute window once the concrete leaves the truck.
Granger has its best concrete guy on the job with Steve Hufnagel serving as the Structural Superintendent, but there will still be a learning curve involved with this being Granger's first experience with pervious concrete.
"There's no doubt this will be a challenging job," says Lange. "Having never worked with this type of concrete before, we will have to do our homework."
Part of that homework may involve test pours, similar to what Granger did prior to performing the architectural concrete work at MSU's Broad Art Museum. While not as extravagant as building a 37 foot leaning wall with no imperfections, Lange does foresee soliciting the help of the Michigan Concrete Association in Lansing to bring the project team up to speed prior to its first pervious concrete placement, which is currently scheduled for late 2013.
Pervious concrete is only a small portion of the $8.5 million contract Granger holds for the Ann Arbor Waste Water Treatment Plant Renovations project. The majority of the work will involve the use of traditional concrete to construct the 17 buildings/structures. In addition, Granger will provide over one mile of duct banks, which Lee Hude will oversee. All work is part of a $100 million project, managed by Walsh Construction, to rebuild half of the city's WWTP. The multi-phased project isn't slated for completion until 2016.

Border has become main battleground in drug war
Despite enforcement efforts, tremendous amount of U.S. use drives trafficking trade
Recent missteps have not helped, including the ATF agency's practice of tracking specific guns heading into Mexico but not confiscating them.
"As long as the great demand exists, as long as you have the huge black market premium, the cartels are going to be fully in business," Carpenter said. "They are going to fight for turf and the most lucrative routes."
Last year, the National Drug Intelligence Center gave a similar assessment in its National Drug Threat Assessment report. The group found that the availability of illicit drugs was on the rise in the U.S.
Contrasting approaches
But William Sherman, acting special agent in charge of the DEA in San Diego, said the collaborative enforcement push has succeeded by eliminating cartel leaders, fragmenting drug organizations and causing traffickers to change their distribution patterns.
Increased tunneling and maritime activity — which are harder ways of transporting drugs into the U.S. — prove it, Sherman said.
Across the southwest, 149 such tunnels have been shut down since 1990, 55 of them in or intended for California, said Joe Garcia, deputy special agent in charge of ICE Homeland Security Investigations.
Tunnels vary from rudimentary holes under fences to sophisticated passages complete with rail lines and ventilation. Garcia oversees the seven-member San Diego Tunnel Task Force, created in 2003 to respond to the escalation. Similarly, marine task forces have grown in recent years as drug smugglers took to the high seas.
"All the parts work together," Garcia said. "There is no stand-alone panacea to the problem."
Each agency and task force attacks parts of the total problem, with some overlap and a lot of cooperation, said Keith Slotter, special agent in charge of the San Diego FBI.
His office dedicates about half of its criminal-division activities to border issues, going after traffickers and looking for corrupt border officers.
"Our goal is to cut the head off the beast and not just clip his toenails," Slotter said. "Dismantling the organizations and putting the leadership in jail is the best scenario."
The problem with the "mega security" model is the U.S. will never be drug-free, especially in light of domestic production of drugs in the U.S., said David Mares, professor of political science and international relations at the University of California San Diego.
"It's not the Colombians' fault or the Mexicans' fault that this country uses drugs," said Mares, author of "Drug Wars and Coffeehouses: The Political Economy of the International Drug Trade."
"As a society, we should be examining these issues rather than focusing on an impossible project — to seal the border."

The four-day deadlock over admission to Delhi University's undergraduate course ended today with Vice Chancellor Dinesh Singh relenting under UGC's pressure and scrapping the controversial four year programme.
However, students seeking admission to the undergraduate programme in Delhi University may have to wait for a few more days with a newly-set up panel of principals being asked to devise the modalities for admissions.
Singh issued a statement this afternoon asking principals of various colleges affiliated to the varsity to start admissions for the new session under the three-year format.
The standoff was apparently resolved by a late night strong letter written by the University Grants Commission(UGC) to DU to rollback the four-year undergraduate programme (FYUP) immediately and start admissions.
"In line with the directive of the UGC, the University has decided to roll back the FYUP. Consequently, the admission process shall be conducted under the scheme of courses that were in force in the academic session 2012-13 in all the colleges of the University of Delhi," Singh said.
The decision has put an end to the uncertainty over the admission process for 2014-15 which was triggered due to the row over FYUP between DU and UGC.
Over 2.7 lakh students have applied for admission to more than 54,000 seats in 64 colleges of the varsity.
Singh said DU recognises the need of the hour and it is of "paramount importance" to protect the interests of the students by ensuring the start of the admission process.
"It is expected that the principals of our colleges shall assist in devising and ensuring a speedy completion of the admission process," he said.
For a smooth transition from FYUP to the three-year format, the university constituted a 12-member committee of college principals headed by President of DU's Principals' Association S K Garg.
"We have not fixed a time frame but hopefully we will start the admission process from Tuesday. We had an informal meeting of our principals. We would begin serious deliberations from tomorrow and submit a report to the VC as soon as possible," Garg told PTI.
As the news of the roll back of FYUP came in, celebrations broke out in the campus with students and teachers dancing and bursting fire crackers.
Teachers and student bodies such as Delhi University Teachers' Association (DUTA), ABVP, NSUI, SFI, KYS and others, who had been carrying out a long-drawn-out protest against the four-year course, celebrated their

Burgers help upscale joints cut the mustard
Burgers come in all forms and prices.
Here are a few local offerings:
All-American Smashburger: 1/2-pound, 100 percent Angus beef with American cheese, ketchup, mustard, onion, pickle, served on an egg bun; $5.99.
The Farmhouse Cafe Burger: 8-ounce Meyer Ranch beef patty with Tillamook sharp cheddar, remoulade sauce on a Bread & Cie sesame-seed bun, served with house-pickled vegetables, fries and ketchup; $15.
Mille Fleurs: prime beef with Shropshire bleu cheese, caramelized onions, black truffles, aioli and homemade fries; $22.
The iconic staple of the American diet, the unassuming burger, is enjoying a rebirth that has celebrity chefs, savvy entrepreneurs and well-known chains capitalizing on consumers' seemingly insatiable appetite for beef patties sandwiched between a bun.
For fine-dining chefs looking to beef up sluggish sales in a down economy, it's the go-to menu item, dressed up with artisan cheeses, perhaps a garlicky aioli and a smattering of wild truffles. Fast-food chains hoping to wean customers off not-so-profitable dollar burgers have been introducing pricier premium patties, and fast-casual restaurant operators are seeing big bucks in customization of the burger.
When San Diego chef Olivier Bioteau decided it was time last fall to remove his Meyer Ranch burger and fries from the menu of his French bistro, the customers rebelled.
"People were really upset with us. Some people just come here for the burger. It was really crazy," recalled Bioteau, owner of the Farmhouse Cafe in University Heights. He has since restored the burger, which he serves with a rémoulade sauce.
"Originally, we had noticed every restaurant opening around us had a hamburger on the menu, so we needed to have one. It's more affordable, and it's also very versatile. When someone sees something popular and profitable, everyone wants to try it and get some money off it. Maybe in a year, it will be hot dogs."
Not likely.
The $100 billion-a-year burger market has been a welcome bright spot in an otherwise dismal year for restaurants. While overall restaurant traffic last year was down 3 percent compared with 2008's, servings of burgers, which numbered 9.3 billion, were up 5 percent, according to the NPD Group, a market research firm.
The growing appeal of burgers, especially for sophisticated palates, is not lost on family-style chains like Denny's, which last year launched an upgrade with its Better Burgers — grilled, hand-formed patties offered with a variety of toppings. Fast-casual chains such as Smashburger and The Counter, both of which recently opened outlets in San Diego County, are rapidly expanding, creating niches for diners looking for something affordable but more inspired than drive-through fare.
Tom Yoo was so enamored with the build-your-own-burger concept adopted by The Counter chain of burger joints that he decided to leave his lucrative career in the financial industry and open a restaurant in Carlsbad, which debuted in December.
"We've been doing fantastic, breaking records," Yoo said. "In a time when we're not doing well economy-wise, people are going back to what they can trust is good, and burgers are at the heart of that. We feel like we're at the forefront of that."
Burgers typically are a recession-proof restaurant staple, said NPD analyst Bonnie Riggs, but "they're also a way of getting people into a restaurant where you don't have to spend as much money." And while they can sometimes still be somewhat pricey, they are nearly always less expensive than typical entrees, she added.
Restaurateur Bertrand Hug, owner of Mille Fleurs in Rancho Santa Fe, decided he needed a quick fix after he saw his nightly volumes plummet as the economy tanked. He turned to the burger, which his chef glams up with gourmet accouterments like Point Reyes blue cheese and caramelized onions to satisfy epicurean tastes. To celebrate the restaurant's 25th anniversary this month, he offered five burgers, paired with a glass of wine or beer, for $25.

Maybe you'll be in attendance. Maybe you suck.
This contest* is open to both and all.
Simply answer the following question, correctly, without being wrong;
How many bottles of Jager will be consumed during Anti-Race 2013?
Obviously, without knowing the specifics of attendance and weather this contest will be not entirely unlike guessing the number of Skittles in a jar of indeterminate size.
For the purposes of my concern, so?
If you've attended Anti-Race in the past, you've got a good idea, usually as many as we bring.
The person most correctest in their guess (over gets preference to under in true Anti-Fashion) will win the Walz-Psycle-Cap of their choice.
Everyone else a coupon for all the fucks I can muster.
* To the inevitable smart ass that says; "…but to be an Anti-Race contest it should be an Anti-contest meaning the best answer should be the worst answer".
So looking forward to Saturday…there'll even be Americans to look at!

A Southwest Airlines flight from Chicago's Midway Airport was scheduled to land at Branson Airport in Missouri on Sunday night. Instead, the Boeing 737-700 touched down at Taney County airport — about seven miles away, and with a runway significantly shorter. Taney County airport doesn't normally handle big jets. Its runway is about half the length of the Branson airport — 3,738 feet compared to 7,140 feet. That required the pilot to do a lot of heavy braking as soon as the jet touched down. The Federal Aviation Administration has launched an investigation on the mix up.
Kevin Jones and his partner Jeanette were thrilled when they snagged a couple of cheap flights from England to the Caribbean. But when they arrived at the Birmingham, England, airport they were turned away. Turns out the tickets were cheap because they had accidentally booked a flight from Birmingham, Alabama, to the Caribbean.

College Hockey:Darkangelo's goal, assist, lead Quinnipiac to sweep of St. Lawrence
HAMDEN, Conn. – The No. 4 seed Quinnipiac Bobcats held on to defeat the No. 5 seed St. Lawrence Saints, 2-1, Saturday evening at the High Point Solutions Arena to sweep the quarterfinal series against the Saints and move on to the ECAC semifinals.
"The goal from the beginning of the year was to make the final four in the conference, so with all the ups and downs, everything else, it all makes it worth it," Quinnipiac coach Rick Seeley said. "To play as well as we played this weekend and to get the outcome we were after, it was pretty satisfying."
Shiann Darkangelo scored a goal and had an assist, while Kelly Babstock added the other goal to lead the Bobcats' offensive attack.
Darkangelo's goal proved to be the difference when she scored with 5:15 remaining in the second period when she wristed the puck on net from the right boards through traffic and past St. Lawrence goaltender Carmen MacDonald to take a 2-0 lead. The goal was initially waved off, but after a lengthy review, the decision was reversed to give Darkangelo the goal.
"Today was like yesterday; we got the goals charging the net and that's the objective of the second half," Seeley said. "Good things happen when you're putting that kind of pressure on the net and the goalie."
With eight minutes left in the third period, the Bobcats managed to keep St. Lawrence off the scoreboard after Quinnipiac goaltender Chelsea Laden was pushed out of the net and the defense stood tall in front to block the puck away.
"The fact that they made half the saves for me was awesome," Laden said. "Showing that we let in one goal in two games is not obviously just me, it's definitely a team effort. We had so many blocked shots today; at one point I wasn't even in the net and somehow we managed to make the saves. If our defensive core stays the way it is, then it's going to be hard to score against us."
Laden finished the game with 25 saves on the 26 shots she faced en route to the victory.
"She made so many big saves today and yesterday, they could have won both games really easily without Chelsea in net," Seeley said.
The Saints broke through with 2:02 remaining in the third period when Mel Desrochers tallied a power-play goal with a six-on-four advantage after pulling MacDonald. Desrochers wristed her shot from the right point and it slid on the ice past Laden's right pad.
"I think this program has played with reckless abandon all year," St. Lawrence associate head coach Ted Wisner said. "Mare and I both had the confidence that pulling the goalie as early as possible would be to an advantage, and it's all in the hard work of the girls on this team."
St. Lawrence pulled MacDonald once the puck got back in the offensive zone as they tried to net the game-tying goal with the extra skater, but were unable to do so.
"This whole weekend we knew it was going to come down to that situation; we practiced it everyday, and you know, just knowing that was comforting," Laden said. "We practiced it and executed it pretty well."
Midway through the first period, Babstock gave Quinnipiac a 1-0 lead when she skated into the offensive zone ahead of the rush and deked left to get MacDonald off balance before wrapping the puck around MacDonald's sprawled body.
Babstock recorded her 203rd career point with her first-period goal to move into second place in Quinnipiac men's and women's ice hockey history, just behind Chris Cerrella's 205 points.
MacDonald recorded 19 saves on 21 shots for the Saints.
"Carmen's good every night, in my opinion; she's a heck of a goalie," Wisner said. "Quinnipiac played a fantastic weekend; they're red hot right now."
St. Lawrence's season comes to an end with the quarterfinal sweep, while Quinnipiac will travel to Potsdam, N.Y., next weekend for the remainder of the ECAC playoffs.
"I think we played pretty hard this weekend; we have no regrets leaving that locker room," Wisner said. "We played hard both nights and couldn't come away with it. Quinnipiac played awesome this weekend; we give a great congrats to them and good luck in the final four next weekend."

If Little Rock, Arkansas' RWAKE are the deliverers of progressive sludge psychosis, then Fayetteville's DEADBIRD are the distillation of it into a crawling, bloody mess of crippling depression and pervasive anxiety. What the hell is going on down there in the land of Clinton anyway? There is in fact a more personal connection between both bands — DEADBIRD's Charles Schaaff (guitar/vocals) is a former member of RWAKE. Recorded in late 2003, "The Head and the Heart" gets a European release on Codebreaker Records this summer and lands on U.S. shores via Earache on October 4. God help the unprepared and the bipolar.The style heard on the disc is a kind of southern doom, baked in a sludgy sauce with pure grain alcohol as a primary ingredient, and topped with a thick Valium crust. Much like DEADBIRD's partners in the art of mind expansion (or collapse, depending on your point of view), catchall terms like "doom" or "sludge" used in isolation are too simplistic to capture the music's essence. "Doom" does provide an indication of the atmosphere created, but it doesn't stop there. Slow tempo pieces with over-amplified guitars and bass buzz are interrupted by melancholic acoustic interludes. Up-tempo sections ultimately get crushed down into a churning slow burn. The plague may take the form of an acoustic instrumental shadowed by a feeling of slight unease ("1332") or a maze of twists and turns, from gloomy melody to an anger-filled desperation landslide ("Mount Zero [is Burning]"). Sorrowful melodic leads that hover just above rhythmic lava flows are found throughout. The most aggressive vocals are reminiscent of the guttural drawl of BEATEN BACK TO PURE's Ben "Boss" Hogg, just not delivered in front-of-the-mix fashion nor with quite the same level of in-your-face attitude. "The Head and the Heart" is not for everyone. If it were it wouldn't fill that special void craved by those falling somewhere between moderately disaffected and severely warped. The heavily medicated among you should approach with extreme caution. May be fatal if swallowed.
