The upcoming 12th season of "The Ultimate Fighter" reality-competition series today begins production in Las Vegas in anticipation of its Sept. 15 debut on Spike TV.
Officials today announced the start of the show's taping.
Additionally, they confirmed that – as with the current 11th season of the show – the lightweights-only season of the show features 28 fighters for the 32-man tournament.
Touted as a surprise format change with "TUF 11," the field of 28 assures that two eliminated cast members get a second opportunity to reenter the tourney as "wild card" picks.
Kyacey Uscola and Kris McCray, who made the "TUF 11" cast after winning their elimination-round bouts, ultimately lost in the first round (16 slots) of the tourney. However, they got a second life as this season's wild-card picks. McCray won the wild-card fight, upset Kyle Noke in the quarterfinals, and now meets Josh Bryant in the semis.
This season's group of lightweights get coaching from two of the top welterweight fighters in the world with UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre and top contender Josh Koscheck. The two competitors meet in a season-ending coach-vs.-coach title fight at a yet-to-be-determined December pay-per-view event.
Although not officially announced by Spike TV, MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) recently reported the coaching staffs for both St-Pierre and Koscheck.
Team St-Pierre includes jiu-jitsu aces John Danaher and Shawn Williams, Muay Thai specialists Phil Nurse and Jean-Charles Skarbowsky, and St-Pierre's longtime MMA coach, Firas Zahabi.
Team Koscheck includes Strikeforce heavyweight/Olympic wrestler Daniel Cormier, boxing coach Teddy Lucio, American Kickboxing Academy founder/former kickboxing champion Javier Mendez, AKA head MMA trainer Bob Cook, and noted Brazilian jiu-jitsu and judo competitor/coach Dave Camarillo.

I prefer crochet to knitting, mostly because I'm faster crocheting than knitting.
But then I found a
tutorial on how to knit with your arms tutorial on how to knit with your arms – the speed of arm knitting arm knitting can't be beaten ;-))
On the photo you see a scarf I made this way in no time. And you can see in the detail, that it is really knit – no cheating. Just chasing ;-))

Leave your plugged-in life behind for the quiet of Arizona's wide-open spaces and warm, laid-back Western hospitality. Whether you're a seasoned horseback rider, a fresh cowpoke or someone who prefers just watching horses, you'll find a memorable vacation at an Arizona dude ranch.
Arizona's guest ranches and dude ranches range from the luxury of a full-service resort to bunkhouse living on working ranches. Plan a family dude ranch vacation to ride horses or herd cattle through warm deserts, pine-scented forests, wavy grasslands or rolling hills at locations throughout the state.
This sampling – lodging is available year-round unless noted – will inspire you to cowboy up.
Western Ways: Gentle horses & skilled wranglers help you get comfortable in a saddle
Tucson's 640-acre Tanque Verde Ranch calls itself the largest dude ranch resort in North America. More than 180 horses provide riding adventures through the Sonoran Desert, including a mounted scavenger hunt. You also can relax at the pool or spa or hike, mountain bike, fish, play tennis or visit the nature center.
A top-rated year-round golf course, plus a seasonal full-service spa and elegant dining speak to the luxury of Rancho de los Caballeros in Wickenburg. From October through May, some 100 horses ply trails that crisscross the resort's 20,000 acres of rolling hills and desert.
In the White Mountains town of Greer, Hidden Meadow Ranch combines luxury with high-country nature. Eighty horses follow trails through a national forest. Horseback riding in snow is a special treat. You can also fish, hike, canoe or bike.
The historic 1926 Kay El Bar Guest Ranch in Wickenburg maintains the original ranch's 1800s adobe structures. The intimate ranch has trail riding and hiking through the Sonoran Desert from October through May.
Special riders get attentive treatment at the Stagecoach Trails Guest Ranch in Yucca in northwestern Arizona. In what may be the world's only completely handicapped-accessible guest ranch, disabled riders can easily mount up for trail or arena riding. Other amenities include a swimming pool and fireside evening entertainment. It's closed early June–mid-July.
Working Ranches: Atop a horse & surrounded by cattle, immerse yourself in the ranch experience
Longhorn cattle roam the 3,000-acre White Stallion Ranch near Tucson. Learn how to herd cattle in team-penning contests, and watch cowboys and cowgirls show off their skills at regularly scheduled rodeos.
Team penning is also popular at the 20,000-acre Flying E Ranch where cows and calves are raised. The guest ranch, established in 1946, is open Nov. 1–May 1 to take advantage of the warm Sonoran Desert winters near Wickenburg.
Milk a cow or help break a colt at the Sprucedale Guest Ranch near the White Mountains community of Alpine. This granddaddy of Arizona dude ranches – it's been around since 1921 – is open May to September.
Cattle Drive Vacations: Spend your days herding cattle on open pastures
A herd of cows need tending at Double R Ranch at Grapevine Canyon in the Dragoon Mountains of southeastern Arizona. Every fall and spring guests help round up cattle. The fall Cow Camp teaches you skills with the ultimate goal of driving cows to pasture.
The fall cattle drive at Beaver Creek Guest Ranch in Alpine moves the herd from pasture to ranch for branding, sorting and loading. The horse drives in June and October move the herd to seasonal grazing pastures.

Spring Forest Qigong
Posted 03 May 2006 - 08:32 PM
What is Qigong?
An easy-to-follow combination of controlled breathing, focused concentration, and simple movement.
Qigong works with the body's energy. Ancient Chinese wisdom calls this energy "Qi" (pronounced "chee," sometimes spelled "chi"). Qi has been called the "mother of blood."
"It is believed that by moving Qi through the body, you can heal yourself of many ailments," says medical doctor Richard Gerber, author of the definitive text for energetic medicine, "Vibrational Medicine: New Choices for Healing Ourselves" as well as "Vibrational Medicine for the 21st Century".
How Qigong works
According to the Chinese model, sickness, pain, and other health anomalies are caused when Qi energy is blocked. When Qi cannot flow through the body, two things happen:
First, excess Qi builds up where it is not needed or wanted. This is like water damming on a river and flooding a neighborhood.
Second, other parts of the body do not receive enough Qi. This is like the riverbed drying out on the other side of a dam, destroying river life.
Qigong exercises remove blocks and increase the flow of energy through your body. When it flows free, Qi energy heals and restores the body.

ive been looking for many ways outa this dp hell and ive tried and done and nothing helps... so im not guaranteeing anything here

It is probably one of the best health promoting / anti ageing exercise you can ever do and can make you feel pretty good about yourself for a while. If you ever see any photos of Qigong masters you will be amazed at how young they look for their age.
I can pretty much tell you anything you want to know about it if you want to know any details?

1 - 5 Element Qigong (Dr Paul Lam), I learned this from DVD and it is very simple and only takes about 10 mins a day. Simply 5 standing exercises. This is probably the most simple yet effective Qigong. Straight after doing it I looked into the mirror and my cheeks were rosy red and my shoulders were so relaxed and I felt energised. After a week or so I could really feel the different qualities of energy with each movement.
2 - Cosmic Freedom Qigong (funky name) by Master Yap. This is a different Qigong as it moves energy downwards and is more Buddhist than Taoist. The reason i tried this is because it is recommended for trauma and PTSD and is endorsed by a Psychology professor in Canada (Dr Chok Hiew) , who I had to write to to buy the video from. This is probably a far more deep and profound Qigong than the other and can really help at a deep level. It claims to be able to cure any pschological problem with six months daily practice. I have been doing it only for a few weeks so I am not sure but it certainly benefits my health, it is easy as you dont even have to breath correctly or visualise, you only have to move.
In summary if you want one which is 10 mins a day, easy, relaxing and energising try 5 element. If you want one which requires about 45 mins a day pracise but brings up emotional garbage and changes your posture and is more likely to effect your mental health do CFQ.
There is another type called Iron Crotch Qigong where you train your genitals. A dude recently pulled a 50 ton truck with his cock and balls then had someone kick him in the nuts for fun :shock: :shock:
I wouldn't bother with than one though.

This is Prof Hiew's site: http://personal.nbnet.nb.ca/cfq/
You can learn it from the book they have published and they have a video. It is pretty low budget but you can get what info you need from it but to get the most out of it you will need their latest book and video which Prof Hiew sells together if you were to e-mail him
What it is, is 7 movements which you have to do 10 times each which constitiutes one round taking 15 minutes. You are supposed to do 3 rounds at least taking about 45 minutes. It takes quite a lot of patience and discipline as you are doing the same movements quite a lot but on the bright side it is quite easy to pick up and you dont have to concentrate too hard.
If you decide to try it you will be able to tell if is helping within a week probably as your sleep will change and your digestion will improve and you will feel lighter. Whether it will cure your DP is another matter but i certainly think with time and effort it could help. But like I say it takes a lot of discipline to see the full results.
Posted 05 May 2006 - 09:06 AM
What are the benefits of CFQ?
CFQ exercises have been successfully used in trauma work with children affected by war, to recover from depression and from other severe symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder. CFQ practice has helped patients cope better with many difficulties, including blood disorders, and chronic and auto-immune diseases. The root of disease is negative emotional states, and actions that traumatize mind and body and dysregulate vital physiological functions. CFQ counters these conditions.
CFQ moves radiant energy or qi to create a smooth and balanced flow. This balanced flow eliminates trapped biological and emotional trauma. This practice roots out the body's energy blockages, stops anxiety, and quiets the heart. CFQ is a method of helping the body return to its natural state of good health by cleansing negative energy, activating the resilience spirit and bringing pure cosmic energy into the body. Emotional, physical distress and spiritual blockages are thoroughly cleared out and health restored.

Wednesday evening, Louisville Magazine held a re-launch party at the Louisville Central Community Centers's Old Walnut Street Development on West Muhammad Ali Boulevard, formerly Walnut Street. The high-turnout event was held in honor of a special reprint of "Stop Ignoring the West End," a series of stories compiled by the publication focusing upon the nine neighborhoods – Algonquin, California, Chickasaw, Park DuValle, Park Hill, Parkland, Portland, Russell and Shawnee – that make up the oft-ignored section of the city that lies west of Ninth Street.
Many of the subjects featured in the series, which led-off the March 2013 "Top Lawyers" issue, made appearances at the event, along with civic leaders such as LCCC President and CEO Sam Watkins, Jr., who talked about the vision he had for the latest addition to the non-profit's portfolio. In a brief speech he gave before the crowd, Watkins mentioned that the first floor of the in-progress facility will have commercial development on the first floor, bringing 15 entrepreneurs and 35 new jobs immediately on the first floor. The second floor will hold LCCC's children's development programs, while the third and fourth floors, comprising a total of 32,000 square feet, will be set aside for job creation and development, with the hope of bringing in more than 200 jobs.
Guests could enter from the rear parking lot or from West Muhammad Ali, where they were greeted by photographic murals of key events and images from Louisville's history of the West End. They could also pick up a copy of the special reprint of all the stories from the March 2013 issue of Louisville Magazine, and partake of appetizers and cash bar from Jafri's Catering, placed near street lamps resembling those that used to light Walnut Street in the early to mid-20th Century.

12 Things You DON'T Need to Do by 25 (Or 30)
No Age Limits
Look, I liked The Bucket List as much as the next person—as in, watching Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman is a fine way to pass the time on a long flight. But it seems like we've become a society a little too obsessed with to-do lists and deadlines. I can't open a magazine without seeing a spread titled "735 Things to Eat Before You Die" or "15 Guys You Need to Bang Before Settling Down." I never fail to read these stories because it fills me with so much anxiety that I simply must find out what more I haven't done yet. But with all the eating and banging, I'm going to be exhausted (and probably a little overweight) by the time I reach that mythical age when there's nothing to do but await the sweet release of death (so, like 36?). I wonder: Am I creating these bucket lists because I really need to or because I'm a slave to a timeline and the myth that we're all Cinderella, dreading the moment we turn into poorly dressed pumpkins? And I'm not the only one plagued with the Cinderella syndrome. My Facebook newsfeed is filled with status updates about the goals and deadlines of my peers. One especially obnoxious, self-congratulating status update had to do with "riding a bike past the Eiffel Tower at night and living in a barn by the time I turn 25." What? Why do you need to be in your early 20s to do those things?
Enough already. We're not Cinderella; death isn't imminent at age 30; it's okay if you haven't gotten to everything or even most things yet. So here's a bunch of stuff you don't need to do by the time you're 25. Or even 30. Or even ever, if you so choose.
Travel to far-off lands
Sometimes my friends and I say things like "this might be our last chance" or "this is the time to do it" whenever we discuss leaving our current cities for even a couple weeks. It's as if we think we're all going to inherit Lindsay Lohan's ankle bracelet on our 30th birthday. If you really want to go, you'll make it happen one day. Sure, it might be harder than taking one backpack and a few pairs of underwear with you as you hike the Alps, but adventure doesn't have to mean forgoing clean underwear anyway.
Come up with the next big idea
Just because some of the recent great innovators still have their umbilical cords intact doesn't mean innovation stops at a certain age. It's okay to just be a college student or just be an employee supporting someone else's great idea. There's still time to develop "the Facebook of cancer research" or "the Facebook of food trucks" or, more importantly, a new phrase to define success.
Live on your own
Perhaps you've noticed that the market for renting isn't the best these days. Plus, doesn't New Girl look like fun?!
Get a degree
There's always at least one old dude in a college lecture hall, and he no doubt pays more attention and has way cooler stories than the frat boy sitting next to him. That could be you one day!
Run a marathon
I will never understand anyone who chooses to run 26-plus miles without stopping but then again, I'm someone who tried to escape from my boot camp class when I learned we were running two timed miles. So for one thing, running is overrated. For another, it isn't outlawed at a particular age. Just ask Fauja Singh (pictured), the world's oldest marathoner who just took part in the Hong Kong Marathon (just five weeks before he turned 102!). photo credit: Guardian.co.uk
Settle on a Career
Futurists predict that the average millennial will change careers as many as 10 times throughout their life. So, try out different jobs—don't settle for one that might not be the right fit.
Fall in love
Have you been around the guys in their early 20s recently? For that matter, have you hung out with girls in their early 20s? It's a miracle anyone finds true love in this day and age—let alone the confused, young people in the world today. So don't sweat it if you haven't met 'the one.' It's okay to wait until we all have a few more things figured out before opening up your heart.
Have the Best Sex of Your Life—Constantly
See previous slide.
Get Married
It's 2012, people. Time to retire the idea of a spinster, crazy cat lady for good.
Wake Up Every Sunday Morning not Hungover and Ready to Tackle Farmers' Markets.
Why do we think we're going to graduate from wanting to celebrate and indulge with our friends?
Be Ready for the Responsibility of a Child
I could be wrong, but is anyone truly ready for kids at any age? Everyone I know who has a child says that no amount of preparation truly prepares you, so why sweat it now? Baby spitup, sleepless nights, and teeting? No thanks—for now, I'll stick to nights out with the girls, date nights that take place at the movie theater, and sleeping in until Noon.
Have a Threesome or be Otherwise Sexually Adventurous Because, Well, You're Young and This is the Time to do It
Maybe it's just not for you, ever. Or maybe it will be for you when you're 65. The point is, like travel, there's no age limit on adventure.

Wonderful , Thoughtful Read,
This review is from: Pigeon English (Hardcover)
Pigeon Engish is a rewarding, insightful read as well as being quite heart breaking at times.
Harri, along with his sister and mother, has recently moved from Ghana to an impoverished inner city highrise project. Harri makes a convincing eleven year old narrator, both spirited and good -hearted, in contrast to the tragedy that surround shim in the form of poverty, street gangs, prostitution and gangs.
Harri finds himself equally repelled and fascinated by the crime that surrounds him as he tries to navigate his new life.
When a boy is " chooked" or stabbed dead while Harri looks on from a distance, he begins his own murder investigation, using sellotape to gather finger prints , among other methods of investigation.
I was deeply touched by and saddened by many elements of this story , knowing that much of what is described is a reality for impoverished inner city dwellers. The book gave me a great deal of insight into the recent riots in the UK.
A powerful and heartbreaking novel.
Very much recommended

So, my Daisy troop co-leader hired someone to come in and teach the girls a hip hop routine today during our troop meeting.
It was the best money spent ever. It was adorable, hilarious, and darling all at the same time. During the "recital" afterwards several of the teachers at the school came in and watched.
Bear was, well, bear. From the waist down she's fine. She can do all of the complicated steps and turns, no problem. But from the waist up? A complete disaster. She barely moves at all. If her head moved six inches during the entire performance I would be shocked. They were doing the lean back shoulder groove thing and she moves about an inch. Max. They were supposed to be bent over and snapping their fingers while swaying. There was no sway. There was no bend. There, however, was snapping. However, she rocked the "strike a pose with an attitude" part at the end. My girl, she can pretend to be a bratty 13 year old, no problem. I was so proud.
Goodness, it was a good time. Best. Meeting. Ever!
NotD: China Glaze Vampy. I broke a nail badly last night while I was cleaning (and in a snit.) So it's dark, vampy colors for a while.

One of my friends sent me a new book that just came out about scrapping airplanes. At first I was a little upset considering I worked on the airplane on the cover, But after looking through the book I found it interesting. Not only does it go into the process of scrapping an airplane but it also shows what happens to some of the airplanes, it the L1011 that was used in LOST. They show what they did to get the airplane to the location.

Interesting thing I just found in this book is they have pictures of the first 777-200 NOT involved in an accident that is getting scrapped. It looks like it is an Air India airplane.

The first 777 to be scrapped was an ex - RG plane first flown by BA and was demolished in 2006. There is a thread here on the planned scrapping of an AI 777. The only write-off of a 777 took place in 2008 (BA flight at LHR).

After being chased inside on the first day of practice due to lightning, The University of Alabama football team went through its first full day of outdoor workouts amid temperatures that reached in the lower 90s.
"Today wasn't quite as good as day one," said Tide Head Coach Mike Shula. "The guys looked a little tired because yesterday it was lot cooler in the gym while today was much hotter. We've got to get into football shape and the only way to do that is to practice."
Shula added that the main thing was for the team to work towards consistency.
Shula said he was pleased with the veterans on the defensive side of the ball, however he was a little concerned that the ball was on the ground a little more than he'd like on the offensive side. He was impressed by the debut of freshman wide receiver Ezekial Knight (6'3, 210, Wedowee/Randolph County HS).
"Ezekial had a pretty good day," said Shula. "He's a big receiver with good speed and natural athleticism."
The Tide will continue its one-a-day practices on Thursday going through Saturday when it will participate in pads for the first time this season.

|Head Coach
|Club Team:
|Cal State - Long Beach
On July 19, 2007 Matt Roe was hired to direct Butler's
Track and Field/Cross Country programs. Roe, who had built his
coaching resume on quickly developing strong distance programs at
Long Beach State (2004-2007) and Western Illinois (2001-2004), has
continued his successful run at Butler, leading the Bulldogs to
three cross country championships in two seasons!
The 2008-2009 year saw the Bulldogs several highlights on and off the track and trail. In the classroom Butler edged Yale as the top combined program in the nation in academics track and field. The women ranked second in the nation in team GPA 3.547 while the men ranked 4th in the nation with a 3.347 GPA. Senior Kent Wories earned Academic All-American honors for the second year in a row, while Andy Baker earned his first Academic All American certificate. Butler's five track and field Academic All Americans in 2008 and 2009 ranks Butler 4th nationally among all Division I schools over that time span.
On the track, dramatic improvements were seen from top to bottom across the program. Notable achievements came from newcomers Stephen Lisgo, Kris Gauson, and Joe Macdonald. The Bulldog trio helped Butler join Stanford and Oregon as the only programs in the country to have a male NCAA qualifier in the Steeplechase, 1500 meters, and 5000 meters.
Lisgo, who broke the Horizon League meet record a month earlier, finished 3rd at the NCAA Championships in a school and personal record time of 8:35.49. His finish was the best male performance in Butler's Division I history at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, guiding Butler to its best finish (40th) at the NCAA Division I Championships. Lisgo, ranked #1 in Great Britain in the Steeplechase, would go on to represent Great Britain in the European U23 Championships, finishing 5th in the final. Gauson, previously injured for over two years prior to his enrollment at Butler, set personal and school records at 800 meters (1:48.66) and 1500 meters (3:42.13). Macdonald joined Gauson under the old 1500 meter school record, winning the Georgia Tech Invitational in personal best 3:42.63. Enroute to his NCAA 5000 meter appearance, Macdonald also won the college/open section at the prestigious Mt. Sac Relays in April slashing over 36 seconds off his personal best to run 13:54.73.
The indoor year produced several outstanding performances. Ranked among these marks were three school and two conference records. Andy Baker ran an indoor personal best 14:00.51 to claim the Butler 5000 meter record. Kris Gauson's 1:51.08 800 meter win at the Horizon League Championships broke the school record and converted to a 1:50.61 NCAA qualifying mark (unbanked 200 meter track). Joe Macdonald broke the conference championship mark at 3000 meters running 8:17.62. The Butler men also broke the school and conference record in the Distance Medley Relay clocking a solo 9:53.82.
During the 2008 Cross Country campaign the men finished 29th at NCAA Cross Country Championships with Andy Baker earning All American honors for the second year in a row. Baker took the individual win for the second straight year at the Horizon League Champions leading the Butler men to a perfect score win, and was the runner-up place showing at the Great Lakes Regional meet leading the Bulldogs to a 3rd place team finish.
Roe's initial campaign at Butler in 2007-2008 was a success on the track and trail. On the track Roe's athletes captured 11 conference titles during the indoor and outdoor campaigns. Along the way, Genni Gardner snapped two Horizon League conference records 5000 meters (outdoor) and indoor mile. In the post season on the women's side Butler was one of only seven schools nationally to have three women in a Regional final at 5000 meters. For the men, newcomer Andy Baker lowered his 500 meter personal best from 2007 by nearly 40 seconds on the way to his first NCAA Outdoor appearance. Baker's 13:49.87 clocking at the Oregon Relays placed him 3rd overall, and tops among all collegians.
Led by Andy Baker and Genni Gardner the men and women swept the Horizon League Championships cross country championships in 2007. On the heels of his first individual conference title, Baker used his momentum to place 3rd at the Great Lakes Regional Championships, earning an individual berth to the NCAA Championships. Baker capped his stellar season by earning All-American honors at NCAA's, placing 28th overall. Two weeks after his NCAA success, Baker helped Great Britain win the European U23 Cross Country title, placing 12th overall. Gardner enjoyed the best cross country season of her career. On the way to her first ever individual NCAA Cross Country Championships appearance, Gardner charted career best finishes at the Great Lakes Regional (9th) and Horizon League Championships (2nd). Gardner's improved regional performance (26th in 2006) lead the women to a 5th place finish, tops among all Indiana schools.
In just two years Roe, a two time Horizon League Coach of the year, has produced 63 All-Horizon League performers, 21 Horizon League individual and relay titles, 11 MidEast Regional Track qualifiers, seven school records on the track, six NCAA individual qualifiers, six All Great Lakes Region cross country runners, six Horizon League meet records, five Academic All-Americans, five Horizon League Athletes of the Year, three All-Americans, three Horizon League team titles, two international team selections, one NCAA team appearance, and one Horizon League Newcomer of the year award.
Prior to taking the reigns at Butler Roe engineered one of the most dramatic recent turnarounds in Division I distance running at Long Beach State from 2004-2007. Roe's accomplishments were acknowledged by his peers as they voted him to be the Men's West Regional Cross Country Representative for the U.S. Track and Field/Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) for 2007-2009.
With their finishes at the Big West Conference meet and the NCAA West Regional meet, the 2006 cross country squads completed the best two-year post-season run in school history. The women's team jumped to second at the Big West Conference meet, tying the 1989 squad for the best women's finish in school history. The men, who were picked to finish fifth after losing their top two runners to graduation, placed fourth. At the 2006 West Regional meet, both squads finished 12th overall.
In 2005 both cross country teams leapt from 6th to 3rd at the Big West Conference meet, marking the best 49er performance in 17 years. At the West Regional meet the women vaulted from 20th in 2004 to 10th in 2005, just 21 points shy of a 7th place finish. The men climbed from 15th to 10th place in 2005 matching the women's team finish. Aside from re-writing their own record books, Roe's squads combined conference and regional team improvements were unmatched by any competitive Division I school in the country from 2004-2005.
On the track the 49'ers were equally successful. In 2007 Roe's runners continued to reach new heights, snapping five school records while further dominating the school's all-time lists. Senior Jim Grabow completed his storied career becoming the first Long Beach State athlete to earn All-American honors in a running event at the NCAA Indoor National Championships, finishing 11th in the 5000 meters. Grabow, a 14:50 5000 meter junior college transfer in 2004, clocked personal bests of 13:44.04 in the 5000 meters and 7:59.40 at 3000 meters in his final season under Roe's guidance. Grabow finished 2007 as the 6th fastest American indoors over 5000 meters. Other top marks included Alex Freitas freshman school record at 800 meters. Freitas's 1:50.05 clocking was fourth fastest among all Division I freshman in 2007.
After re-writing the Long Beach's indoor school record list in the winter, Roe's runners had a historic outdoor year in 2006. Roe's men played a vital role in the first 49er men's conference title in 30 years. The men tallied 34 points at the conference meet, the most ever by a 49er distance squad at the Big West meet. Mario Cobian became the first 49er distance runner in six years to win a conference title. Not to be outdone, the women recorded 33 points at the Big West meet, also an all-time 49er distance best. The women's distance contribution helped guide the team to a 3rd place finish and the best two-year conference run in school history.
At LBSU Roe's athletes did more than just improve they did so at impressive rates. In less than three years Roe's runners recorded 51 all-time top 10 marks, 14 All Big-West selections, 12 school records, four NCAA National Qualifying marks, a Big West Conference Champion, one All-American and one Academic All-American selection.
Prior to his appointment at The Beach, Roe made Western Illinois one of the most improved Division I programs in the nation from 2001-2004. In three years at the helm of the Western distance program, Roe produced 24 All-Mid Continent athletes, nine runner-up conference finishers, three conference champions, two school records, and two All-American with Distinction Academic Teams.
As the Head Cross Country Coach at Western, Roe led both the men's and women' program from the bottom to near the top of the Mid-Continent Conference. In only his second season, Roe's women went from sixth to second in the Mid-Continent Conference Cross Country Championships, establishing one of the top one-year turnarounds in Division I from 2001-2002. The women's finish was best in school history. Roe's men also improved dramatically at the conference meet jumping from seventh in 2001 to fourth in 2002 to 3rd in 2003.
As assistant track coach at Western, in his first year (2002) Roe helped lead the Leathernecks to the Mid-Continent Outdoor Track title, coaching Zach Somers to Western's first individual distance title in a decade. Somers became the first freshman in school history to win a conference distance crown. At the 2003 Mid-Con Championships, Roe's athletes exploded for a school record 98 points, tallying 13 career bests, nine all-conference honors, five runner-up finishes, two conference titles and two Mid-East Regional berths. The combined effort stood in stark contrast to the 27 total points produced in the year prior to Roe's arrival.
Prior to coaching at Western Illinois, Roe served as an assistant track and cross country coach at the University of Montana from 1999-2001. At Montana, Roe helped guide the Grizzlies to 11 individual Big Sky titles, eight NCAA appearances, and two All-American honors. Roe assisted the 2000 Lady Grizzlies to their best all-time Big Sky (second) and Mountain Regional (fifth) cross country finishes. The 2000 season was capped off by Sabrina Monro's runner-up finish at the NCAA Cross Country Championships.
A standout on the track and trail for Division I national distance power University of Portland, Roe was a three-time All-West Coast Conference harrier. A three-time WCC scholar-athlete, Roe earned degrees in English (1997) and History (1998) from Portland. A USATF Level II certified coach, Roe earned his M.S. in Physical Education (Sport Psychology) from Western Illinois in 2003.

My Best Birth
Here's Malloree, using Hypnobabies, deeply focused during a "birthing wave", very comfortable. She is aware of everything going on around her; as much as she wants to be. Q) I'm wondering what being in hypnosis will be like when I'm giving birth. My midwife also says she is concerned that I won't be fully present and able to feel or know what's going on; that I'll be like a zombie or something.…

Most of us don't do too much touring during the winter, unless we're fortunate enough to get away from the the miserable weather for a few weeks, or unless we opt to brave the wintery conditions and tour in them.
The winter is my time of year to take courses ... further education. Some years I might take a single night course for a few months over the winter. Other years I might be engaged in full time education (like this year, for example).
But many of these courses could be related to touring. For example, most winters in recent years I've taken a spinning class or yoga class. These help keep my fitness level up over the winter so I'm in shape to tour in the summer. Last winter I took the classes toward a Fitness Trainer Certification. I didn't manage to get the practical part done in time for various reasons, so I'm not certified, but I still passed the two, rather intensive, courses on aspects of fitness, health, and nutrition with flying colors. And the information from those classes has been beneficial for both my long distance cycling, and touring. I've taken two bicycle maintenance classes to familiarize myself with some of the basic repairs I might encounter on the road.
Since I started University, I've taken several classes that could also be related to touring ... Kinesiology (another 'health and fitness' class), Physical Education, French ... and this semester, I'm in a Social Studies course with an emphasis on global citizenship, a Canadian history course, and two Anthropology and Culture courses learning about the cultures and languages of people all over the world. Very interesting.
Do you take courses with the intent of enhancing your tours, or which have indirectly or unintentionally enhanced your tours?

Welcome! That sounds deep. I too love history, language, religion, and philosophy. You have come to the right place for help with maps.
I will take a look at your other post and see if I can help... tectonics is not my thing but I do make map icons/elements to show mountains/hills/trees and such if you go the fantasy novel style with the end result.

Pretty Little Liars Star Troian Bellisario Talks Spoby's Rise to the Top! (VIDEO)
At the Pretty Little Liars PaleyFest carpet on Sunday, Celebified caught up with Troian Bellisario (Spencer Hastings), and the star of the show had plenty to say going into the Season 4 Finale, which airs tonight.
After everything Spencer and Toby Cavanaugh (Keegan Allen) have been through, with her breakdown, their separation following his pursuit of the truth of his mom's death, and more, what's going on with Spoby? Turns out, they're the most solid couple in Rosewood. How did that happen? Troian explains.
"Right now the only [couple] that's really together is Spencer and Toby. Everything's hit the fan with Aria and Ezra, Hanna and Caleb are in separate cities, and things aren't going too well for Paige and Emily, so I'd say us," she says of her onscreen relationship's rise to the top. While they've always been one of our favorites, Haleb and Ezria are definitely having some serious problems, so we're glad to see that Toby and Spencer are in a good place for now.
Troian also talks fan theories, pointing out the frequent idea that Alison DiLaurentis's twin theory is a reigning "A" go-to. In the books, the other blonde DiLaurentis was a big part, but she has yet to show up on the ABC Family show, and Marlene King previously said she never would.
Check out the video for Troian's discussion of what she has in common with Spencer, and check out the finale airing tonight on ABC Family.

How to Be a High School President
So you've just been elected as your high school's president, but you aren't sure about what to do next. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to play your role effectively.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Understand that you are president to serve the students. Students likely elected you for who you are—not for some stuck-up, arrogant kid. Be yourself, but keep a professional attitude when it's most appropriate.
2Take care of yourself. Students and teachers will look up to you and ask you for advice, so it's important that you appear approachable. Teachers and students alike will feel more comfortable if you look nice. Be well-groomed, and be sure to touch up your manners. Be polite, but witty.
3Support everyone. There will be many students in your school and you represent each and every one of them. It is important not to be judgmental, so disregard any stereotypes associated with subcultures and other such cliques. Some of them may be different, and individual in their own styles, but you should always show respect.
- Guaranteed, there will be funky clubs, strange groups, and the odd kid asking if you can get them into the next assembly. Say that you think it could be done and say you'll get back to them. Most of the time, it can't be done, but make sure to ask a teacher or your principal whether this is possible. Simply saying 'no' will make you seem out of control.
4Enjoy it. Most of the duties of being president come with the job and you need not look for more work. Your work is cut out for you. If you are an enthusiast (as most presidents are, if you chose the job), go to school events to show your support. Enjoy yourself while you're there.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- Develop a "default response" for the out-of-the-ordinary and absurd questions that you might receive. If that crazy kid asks you if he can live under the principal's desk, you might say, "That's interesting. I'll ask".
- Smile. Look as though everything is going a-okay.
- Work with your vice president, as they will have many important ideas. Two heads are better than one, as the saying goes.
- Don't let the title of "President" get to your head. You got to where you were by the grace of the students who voted for you. Heed to their words and be the person that they voted in.

A lumpy melange of supernatural ingredients and distinct genre elements that never cohere.
If someone took a handful of VHS tapes from the horror/fantasy shelf of an early '90s video store, plunked them in a blender and hit puree, the result would look something like the ineptly titled "Fading of the Cries," a lumpy melange of supernatural ingredients and distinct genre elements that never cohere. Old-time Hammer horror, Romero-style zombies, "Evil Dead"-type necromancy and sword-and-sorcery action scenes compete with incongruously pricey-looking f/x in this effort from tyro writer-director-producer Brian A. Metcalf. Humorless and strangely squeamish about its own violence, pic bows in limited bicoastal release July 8 and seems cable-bound.Michael (Thomas Ian Nicholas) resurrects chief ghoul Mathias (Brad Dourif), their mansion-set misadventures structured with diary entries read in old-fashioned voiceover. But the connective tissue between its separate segments is so tenuous and unconvincing that "Cries" almost suggests a failed anthology. The Romero-influenced section finds Elaine Hendrix (convincing) as a harried single mom, already saddled with downbeat, disaffected daughters (Hallee Hirsch, Mackenzie Rosman), now stuck with corpses traipsing on her front lawn. Fancily swashbuckling, demon-battling Jacob (Jordan Matthews), meanwhile, cultivates yearning for the tongue-in-cheek cheesiness of Sam Raimi's "Evil Dead 3."
Fading of the Cries
An Eammon Films release of a Ratio Pictures production. (International sales: Aspect Film, London.) Produced by Karoline Kautz, Thomas Ian Nicholas, Brian A. Metcalf. Directed, written by Brian A. Metcalf.
Camera (color, widescreen), Brad Rushing; editor, Jeff Smith; music, Nathaniel Levisay. Reviewed on DVD, New York, July 5, 2011. MPAA Rating: R. Running time: 93 MIN.

Early career prize for former journalist turned physicist
A Lancaster PhD student is celebrating winning a major early career award. Former journalist Cherry Canovan decided to study science after writing stories for the Times Educational Supplement about the lack of women in physics. She was named the Very Early Career Woman Physicist of the Year at a ceremony in London organised by the Institute of Physics and sponsored by Shell. The award was presented by Amanda Cooper-Sarker, Professor of Particle Physics at Oxford University.
Cherry was awarded the Ł1,000 prize for her published work on problems in classical electrodynamics, as well as her interest in helping other women get involved in physics. She founded the department's Women in Physics group two years ago, since when it has held many meetings and encouraged women from all career stages and research groups to get to know one another.

Be a College Personal Advisor
All staff are now able to become College personal advisors. This is an important role which helps mainly first year students to settle in at Lancaster. The time commitment is about 10 hours per year. You don't need to be experienced or have any particular skills – the key qualities are the willingness to listen, to give sensible advice, and to enjoy helping students to succeed. There's a full support network, including a senior advisor who will provide materials and a structure, briefing sessions for all new advisors to get to know the system and meet others. If interested, please get in touch – either with Vicki Haslam who is Cartmel senior advisor and co-ordinator for all colleges (you don't have to join Cartmel!), or contact the administrator of any college you're interested in. Please do this now: there will be opportunities from June for you to meet college staff, find out how the role works, and to have your own small group of freshers from the start of October.
Careers in research online survey (CROS)
Research Staff are invited to take part in CROS 2011 which is open until 31st May 2011.

The results will be used by the University and Research Funding Bodies to inform decision-making and monitor developments relating to the employment, training and career development of research staff. Since its introduction in 2002, CROS has led to improvements in staff review systems, induction processes and communication with research staff. It also contributed to the publication of the second Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers in 2008 by RCUK, and the establishment of Vitae as a national body to champion the professional and career development of researchers.
Submissions are anonymous and all researchers are encouraged to register their opinions via the survey. The response rate is an important benchmarking tool for Lancaster researcher support. You can access Lancaster CROS 2011 here. For further information contact Joe Thornberry, OED.

TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Arizona State loaded up on junior college talent in coach Todd Graham's second recruiting class, but the Sun Devils lost the star high school quarterback they thought they were going to get.
Joshua Dobbs had verbally committed to Arizona State, but at the last minute changed his mind and signed with Tennessee, leaving the Sun Devils without a quarterback recruit for the second year in a row.
Graham didn't talk about Dobbs by name but said the plan was to bring in a quarterback and that changed on Wednesday.
The 27 Arizona State recruits included 10 from junior colleges, headed by defensive lineman Marcus Hardison of Dodge City Community College. The list of freshman recruits was topped by linebacker Chans Cox of Blue Ridge High in Lakeside, Ariz.

Neve Campbell has fallen off the radar since her days as the consistently crying Sidney Prescott in the Scream Trilogy and has spent that time doing rounds on the indie circuit. This year we find her in When Will I Be Loved, the new pseudo seductive rip off from writer/director James Toback (Two Girls and a Guy). Despite showing hers, naked Neve can not save this movies ass as it puts the indie in Indecent Proposal .
Vera (Neve Campbell) leads a life drenched in luxury in Uptown Manhattan courtesy of her well off parents. Her boyfriend Ford (Fred Weller), is nothing more than a two-bit hustler looking to jump into the entertainment industry in some fashion. The two seem to have a very odd and open relationship from the get go, that is until Ford pimps out Vera to the Italian media mogul Count Tommaso (Dominic Chianese) accepting one hundred thousand dollars from him for a night with Vera. Because money is no object to Vera, Ford thinks hell keep the money for himself. Low and behold deception and drama unfold as troubles arise between the three parties causing ultimate tragedy.
Vera might be a sexually empowered woman, ready to jump anything that moves, but her little antics, and those of Ford, makes this film borderline pornography. In the first five minutes of this eighty-one minute flick is a masturbating shower scene. Ten minutes later a foursome during broad daylight in a park with Ford and three random girls, inter-cut with Vera led lesbian scene. When characters have sex every three or four scenes, Im sorry...Thats porn. Which is fine, I can accept that. Porn is okay. Just dont cut away during the deed. You do that, and its porn masqueraded as pretentious art. That my friends, really sucks. Then again, nobody really wants to see a money shot from Junior Soprano.
Acting wise, anybody could have done this. The characters were all bland so nobody had a lot to work with. The only good performance in this movie was from the two minutes Mike Tyson was on screen. Yeah, you heard me. Mike Tyson. His scene on the street is hysterical, lets just pretend hes not Mike Tyson, hes Buck. Ill leave it at that. Everyone else, wasted. Karen Allen (Raiders of the Lost Ark) has one scene and you dont realize its her until it is too late. Dominic Chianese (The Godfather Part II) needs to continue being mafia guys, Fred Weller needs better work to showcase his potential, and Neve Campbell needs to keep her shirt on...pants can stay off...but keep the shirt on.
Why has no one realized that this is an Indecent Proposal rip-off? Granted its an interesting plot device for a married couple to go through, but not for a boyfriend and girlfriend. I mean seriously. What was James Toback thinking of other than just more ways to have cool dialogue? I dont get it. I also dont get why Neve decided to go in the buff for this tripe rather than in Wild Things like we all wanted her to. But no, she takes her shirt off and they fade to black. I seriously dont get it. And if you were to see this I doubt youd get it either.
When Will I Be Loved is nothing more than brazen indie softcore porn; plain and simple. The only reason to see this movie is to catch a glimpse at Neve Campbells succulent hindquarters. Sadly thats the opening shot of the movie. Its downhill from there. Skip it and go pick up something with Jenna Jameson in it. Now thats a limited release I wouldnt mind going out of my way for.

Summer's savior
July 17 was a scorcher in New York City. The week before, seven deaths tied to the heat were reported. People were desperate to find ways to cool off. That was the news that was fit to print in The New York Times regarding the heat wave — of 1902.
Yes, long before the summer heat became global warming and global warming became climate change, July could be quite hot in Gotham.
July 17 is the official birthday of air conditioning, one of the greatest gifts to humankind ever invented. An industrial area of Brooklyn is where Willis H. Carrier worked out a way to artificially chill the air. This July, 111 years later, the air conditioners in New York have been busier than the ones in Oklahoma City.
Carrier changed the climate of the indoors by controlling it. He couldn't do a thing about conditions outside, but we're ever so thankful that a man from more northern latitudes created something that has made our part of the country tolerable through the long slog of southern summers.
