Unbeaten Louisville still searching for national respect; more Mailbag
Story Highlights
Louisville deserves credit for its 9-0 start, but it has played lackluster competition
Texas A&M's offense could test 'Bama, but Aggies don't have the talent of Oregon
Plus: Bowl scenarios, Miami's postseason predicament, Jeff Tedford's woes, more
|The Mandel Initiative Podcast
|The Heisman Pundit, Chris Huston, discusses the state of the race with four weeks to go. Stewart and Mallory assess the title contenders and answer listener mail.
Much (electronic) ink has been spilled here already about Alabama, Oregon, Kansas State and Notre Dame, and there's likely much more to come in the weeks ahead. But did you know there's another undefeated team out there that's technically eligible for the BCS championship? Really? Tell me more.
I have a question about (wait for it) the Louisville Cardinals. They've got a good chance of finishing undefeated, as long as they end up beating one-loss Rutgers. In the past, when a Big East team went undefeated, they'd at least be near the discussion for a national championship. This year, however, Louisville is not on the radar at all. Does the conference's current perceived strength have to do with an impending exodus of Big East teams that hasn't happened yet?
-- Billy, Montreal, Quebec
It's true, Louisville (9-0) has gained absolutely no traction in the national championship conversation, starting the season No. 25 in the AP Poll and, over the course of 10 weeks, moving up just 14 spots to No. 11. The Cardinals sit at ninth in the BCS standings, behind the SEC bloc of Georgia (8-1), Florida (8-1), LSU (7-2) and South Carolina (7-2). Meanwhile, at this same juncture in 2009, Big East peer Cincinnati, unranked in the preseason, was 9-0 and fifth in the BCS, behind only other undefeated teams (and ahead of one, Boise State). And back in 2006, Louisville rose as high as No. 3 when it started 8-0 before losing to unbeaten Rutgers, which rose to No. 6 following the victory.
So it would seem Louisville is being treated as a mid-major, which gives credence to Billy's theory. While the Big East is still an AQ conference as of now, it's been drilled into our brains since the playoff discussions last spring and summer that the league will no longer be considered one of the Big Six going forward. Is Louisville being preemptively punished as such? Perhaps. Clearly, the Big East has lost a lot of luster not just since its Ray Rice-Pat White-Brian Brohm glory days, but also over the last three years, since Brian Kelly's Bearcats came within a last-second Texas field goal of possibly playing for the national championship.
In reality, the voters are actually being kind to Louisville, given its schedule. The Cardinals have two wins of any note, over 6-3 North Carolina and 6-2 Cincinnati. The rest of their schedule has consisted of 1-9 Kentucky, 3-7 Missouri State, 2-8 FIU, 0-9 Southern Miss, 4-5 Pittsburgh, 3-6 USF and 3-5 Temple. Their cumulative opponents' record is a putrid 28-56, and it's not as if Louisville has dominated that slate, either. Five games have been decided by one score. As a result, Jeff Sagarin's ratings (the ones that include margin of victory) rank Louisville all the way down at 44th.
Essentially, Louisville has gone the entire season without playing the kind of "wow" game that causes voters to take notice, and the Cardinals aren't helped by the fact that their two best Big East foes, Cincinnati (against Toledo) and Rutgers (against Kent State), both lost to MAC opponents. All due credit to Charlie Strong, Teddy Bridgewater and Co., but their résumé is no better than Hawaii's was in 2007. The Big East tag isn't hurting the Cardinals; it's giving them a shred of legitimacy. But they could at least lay the groundwork for a serious run next season if they reach and win a BCS bowl.
Stewart, do you think this week's matchup between Alabama and Texas A&M could give us an idea of what an Alabama vs. Oregon title game would look like? Obviously, Oregon is the standard bearer for hurry-up offenses and has even better athletes than A&M, but both feature a dynamic running quarterback, very good starting running backs and receivers who can gain yards after the catch. Your thoughts?
-- Corey, Waverly, Iowa
This weekend's game might offer some clues as to how Alabama defends a running quarterback and deals with tempo, but you can't use it as a true barometer for how the Tide would defend Oregon. That's for one simple reason: The Ducks are a much better team than A&M. Even if you give the nod at quarterback to Johnny Manziel over Marcus Mariota, which is a tough call unto itself, the Ducks have better running backs, better receivers, better tight ends and a better overall offensive line (though the Aggies have two tackles, Luke Joeckel and Jake Matthews, with better NFL prospects than any individual Oregon offensive lineman).
One thing that's really jumped out at me after covering two Oregon games this year: Chip Kelly's offense has gotten bigger and more physical up front over the last two years. The scheme and the tempo that served as equalizers earlier in Kelly's tenure are almost ancillary to the Ducks' talent now. Case in point: According to ESPN Stats and Info, Barner gained 261 of his 321 yards against USC before contact. That's insane. Oregon just kept running the same stretch play, and both the Ducks' linemen and their receivers kept sealing the end. Texas A&M hasn't reached that level of dominance yet, as evidenced by its Florida and LSU games, though Manziel and his teammates execute that offense well and create opportunities in open space, much like Oregon does. Ultimately, however, talent is tougher to account for than scheme. Alabama probably still has more of it than Oregon, but it's not the discrepancy it used to be.
Since neither A&M or Texas is going to a BCS bowl and both have possible nine-win seasons looming, isn't it likely that the Cotton Bowl would seriously consider keeping the rivalry alive and match up Texas and A&M? If they brought that rivalry, thought to be dead, to Dallas Jan. 4, they could put 100,000 people in Cowboys Stadium. Since you don't have that in your bowl projections, what do you think would keep it from happening?
-- Matt McClearin, Dallas
I got that question far more than any other in response to Monday's projections. And it's definitely a possibility, and one that could bring more attention to that game than any non-BCS bowl in recent memory. But a few things have to happen. For one, Oklahoma either needs to get pulled up to the BCS or finish with the same record as the Longhorns. Passing up a 10-2 Oklahoma team for a 9-3 Texas team that the Sooners beat 63-21 would not be well received in Big 12 country. Similarly, the Aggies certainly need to finish at least 9-3 (which seems likely) given there could be multiple 10-win SEC teams available, most notably LSU.
But ultimately, the deciding factor may be exactly the same one that ended the rivalry in the first place: spite. These teams will face each other eventually, especially with the forthcoming SEC-Big 12 Sugar Bowl deal announced Tuesday, but this year may be too soon. There's still a lot of bad blood. While it's technically the bowl's call, it's not going to do anything to alienate one of its most important partners, and my guess is DeLoss Dodds and Co. want no part of such a matchup if it can be avoided. I could be wrong. Maybe they'll welcome it. But keep in mind, the matchup doesn't affect the schools' financial windfall either way. They get a set payout. It's the bowl that wants to sell as many tickets as possible, and while I think LSU-Texas would sell out Jerry World, A&M-Texas would sell out in about 47 seconds.
Army beats Air Force for the first time in seven years and it doesn't even get a mention in College Football Overtime? You are covering COLLEGE football right? How about a little coverage to the small guys when something BIG happens?!
-- Paul, Atlanta
Yep, I dropped the ball there. The service academies have gotten several mentions this year (including Navy's win over Air Force Oct. 6), so of course the Black Knights deserve a shout-out. And I'm sure no one was happier about Army's milestone than SI associate editor and West Point alum Mark Beech.

"It just gave us a chance to investigate other things that we were hearing," adds DeJohnette. "I was doing things with Sun Ra, as well. It was a pretty eclectic scene.
"Chicago was a great melting pot of lots of kinds of music."
All of which helped make DeJohnette one of the most eclectic artists to pick up a set of sticks. From the fusion experiments of Miles Davis' "Bitches Brew" to the delicate, classically tinged work of Keith Jarrett to collaborations with Sonny Rollins, Ornette Coleman, Thelonious Monk and others too numerous to name, DeJohnette has been an uncommonly protean instrumentalist.
The Gateway trio he'll lead, with guitarist John Abercrombie and bassist David Holland, on Friday night at Symphony Center stands out, if only for the subtlety of its expression and the rarity of its appearances.
"It's a very special trio," says DeJohnette, in explaining why he wanted to celebrate his 70th in Chicago with this group.
"It's something that may not happen again; it's a one-time reunion thing. There are a lot of people who always ask, 'When are you guys going to get together again?'
"It's a unique way we play together. … We bring out something different in each other that doesn't happen in other situations."
But Friday's concert will be doubly historic, for it will mark DeJohnette's homecoming. Don't be surprised if sometime during the evening the drummer tips his hat to Von Freeman, the quintessential Chicago tenor saxophonist who died this summer at age 88 and has been inspiring stage tributes from practically every major touring jazz musician who swings through town.
Freeman also was awarded an NEA Jazz Masters Award in January, but he wasn't well enough to attend.
"At least he was alive to know he got it," says DeJohnette. "He had a unique voice. He had his own way of playing harmony, playing ballads, standards and going outside (traditional harmony), going inside and outside the music.
"I had the good fortune, the opportunity to play with Von in some jam sessions. … It was really great fun."
Jack DeJohnette
When: 8 p.m. Friday
Where: Symphony Center, 220 S. Michigan Ave.
Tickets: $27-$60; 312-294-3000 or cso.org

Ways of seeing the brain inspire notions of how it works
The mysterious contents of the skull have long captivated their owners. Ancient Egyptians treated brain injuries by pouring milk in both ears. Aristotle believed the brain was a cooling unit for the heart. Galen, the leading physician of the Roman Empire, claimed that "animal spirits" imbued the brain with its abilities. These ideas were a product of limited tools and unscientific preconceptions. As scientists have developed more sophisticated methods and ideas, their understanding of how the brain works has shifted too.

Jr. Highlanders win Tri-County title in four OTs
By Joe Byrd
AFTON — Cloudland's Jeffrey Puckett hit two free throws with 8.2 seconds left in the fourth overtime to lift the Highlanders to the Tri-County Middle School basketball conference championship here Thursday night, ending a season of frustration against Happy Valley with a 39-37 victory over the Warriors.
Happy Valley thought the title was going home with the Warriors until late in the fourth quarter when Puckett hit a layup to send the game into overtime. One extra frame wouldn't do, nor would another and even one after that. Finally with the two sides deep into the fourth added period and staring a fifth one right in the eyes, Puckett came through for the win.
"Oh man, I thought I've played in some games, but that was a dang game right there," said Highlanders coach Jordan Hughes. "There isn't much you can say. This is about as good as you can have it."
Hampton's boys placed third in the tournament, beating host Chuckey-Doak 57-37 in the consolation game.

Newport >Food & Dining > Black Pearl
W Pelham, Newport, RI | Directions 0284041.486987 -71.315163
CHOWDER – Get the chowder!! Get the bowl not just the cup! Best ever!
DELICIOUS CHEESEBURGER AND FRIES!! – This was my first meal in Newport- and even though its right on the water and is supposed to have delicious seafood, I for some reason ordered a burger- and it was DELICIOUS! The service was also great.
Overrated – The Black Pearl is a remnant from days gone by when one didn't have a choice of great seafood resturants and were stuck with arrogant and unfriendly staff members and old antiquated ambiance. It took what seemed forever to even be acknowledged at the seating desk. Food was plain, nothing inventive nor mouth watering. Four of us were on vacation on the East Coast and have captured many places we plan on returning to, but this place is definitely not on our list. Save your money; better places all around you.
great chowder – love the chowder! A newport tradition!
Terrific food - go in the off season for the best experience!
Best seafood – This place has the best seafood and clam chowder anywhere in New England. Make wait list reservations because the wait time is at least one hour. But the wait is worth every minute because you will never have seafood better than this.
Best Chowder In Rhode Island – Any visit to Newport must include a visit to The Black Pearl. Diners can choose from the tavern, the main dining room or the fun outside cafe. Any meal is not complete without an order of chowder. Rich with clams and potatoes, a creamy broth topped with dill and lemon, this is the quintessential New England styled chowder. The Pearl also features stellar burgers, fish and chips and grilled fish.
For a sepcial treat, end your meal with the key lime pie.
Overpriced, Low Quality Food Made With No Pride – The Pearl raves about it's chef and his win in a major culinary competition by the front door menu board, well whover judged that competition never ate there! The food was boring, plain and made with zero pride. Whover that chef is (i refuse to even learn his name) should be embarrassed!
I went July 3rd with 5 friends prepared for a long wait and we were happy to wait 1.5 hours at the outdoor and indoor bars for a table. Unfortunately, we were jammed into a corner table even though two large round tables were open throughout our meal. We requested the larger table, but were told the waitresses "find it hard to work around them." What???
The food was even more disappointing. The waitress highly recommended the striped bass which was dry and without any tomato, basil buerre blanc that it was advertised with. (in retrospect we think she was trying to unload the bass on us.) Every dish came with tasteless rice and overcooked tasteless beans. I've had better seafood at that chain lobster place.
Ted Turner and any other C list celebrity is not worth putting yourself through a meal at the Black Pearl.
The Black Pearl – "The Pearl" is a great place to eat! The food is great,the patio is a nice place have a few drinks and enjoy the wonderful outdoors in the summer a. The tavern and patio are casual attire and DO NOT take reservations, there can be quite long waits in the summer so stop by about an hour or so before you want to dine. and the waitress' are some of the most beautiful in town
Great Service – I have loved the Black Pearl for years....and must say that the service is always top notch.
Good times on the patio – I've never gone to the indoor dining area, but have always enjoyed grabbing a casual meal at Black Pearl's outdoor patio, which sits on the dock right outside of the restaurant. The burgers are delicious, and they make the best mudslide I've ever had. It's expensive, but you're paying for the atmosphere and the location. Service is generally solid. Worth going to at least once.

Be My Valentine Card & Decoration by DCWV®
Change the colors or prints of both the card and decor to create your desired look.
Designed by Celeste Crockett, courtesy of DCWV®
Material List
- DCWV® Paper pad - 12"x12" - the Sweet Blossom Stack™
- Vellum Quote - Sentiment of Choice OR Rub-on Letters - Black
- Grosgrain Ribbon, 3/8" - Orange with White Dots
- Twine - Orage
- Popsicle Stick
- Paper Crafting Marker - Blue
- Paper Crafting Punches - 1" Circle and Heart Assorted Sizes (at least 2)
- Scoring Tool
- Paper Trimmer
- Scissors
- Paper Crafting Adhesive
- Double Stick Tape
- Adhesive Foam Squares (Optional)
Project Instructions
Card & Envelope
Step 1 Select your desired print from the Sweet Blossom Stack™ for the main section of the card. Create a 5"x7" envelope with this print, leaving the top end open. Punch a circle into the center of one of the open edges (we punched ours three times) to create a tab.
Step 2 Cut a 1¾"x5" rectangle from a new print. Using the image as a reference, adhere this horizontally to the bottom section of your envelope, ½" up from the bottom edge.
Step 3 Cut a 1¼"x4" rectangle from an additional print. Cut a 7" strip of the orange grosgrain ribbon. Adhere this lengthwise to the center of your rectangle, securing one side underneath the left edge and looping the other end on the right and adhering in place (your quote will cover up the raw edge). Adhere this grouping to the center of your last strip.
Step 4 Cut a 1"x3¼" strip of paper from another print. Apply your vellum quote, or rub on your desired sentiment to the middle of the strip. Apply this grouping to the center of your last strip using adhesive foam squares.
Step 5 Cut a 5"x7" square from an additional print. Write a note to your significant other and insert this inside your envelope.
Hanging Heart Décor
Step 1 Cut two pieces of the orange twine, each measuring 14" long. Using the image as a reference, tie these onto the popsicle stick at opposite ends, securing the loose ends onto the stick.
Step 2 Punch nine large hearts and 18 medium hearts from assorted prints. Fold each of these in half (print in). Adhere them in sets of three along both pieces of twine, creating five groupings of hearts on each one. To do this, attach half of the back of the first heart to the half of the back of another; then adhere the two remaining halves to the back of the third heart (repeating ten times).
Step 3 Cut a 5" piece of the orange grosgrain ribbon and attach this in a loop to the side opposite the twine (this will hang up and the twine will hang down) of the popsicle stick. Cover your popsicle stick by adhering your desired piece of printed paper on both sides, trimming all the edges to match up with the stick. Finish by coloring any wood edges of the popsicle stick with the blue marker. Insert this inside your envelope.

Review of the Year 2012 - Part I: Beer & Cider
With Christmas fast approaching, it's the time of year when just-drinks takes its annual look back at the past 12 months. Between now and the end of the year we'll assess how the soft drinks, spirits, wine and bottled water sectors have fared in 2012. Up first, however, is beer and cider. just-drinks' deputy editor, James Wilmore, takes us through the highs and lows for the long alcoholic beverage (LAB) category.

The unit, which produces the namesake range of beers, is the clear market-leader, but has had to struggle of late as the legislative environment has grown more hostile to alcoholic drinks. Having assumed the leadership of Baltika late last year, Isaac Sheps talked to just-drinks about what he found when he made the move, what he's battling against today, and what he wants in the future.

The Most Dangerous Man in America: Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers
The Most Dangerous Man in America: Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers
2010 Academy Award® Nominee for Best Documentary
Judith Ehrlich, Rick Goldsmith, 2009
Wex at Gateway
Join us at the Gateway Film Center (located in the South Campus Gateway, just three blocks to our south) where we program a different exceptional independent or international title for a run of at least two weeks each month.

"The most exciting thriller I've seen in a while – as powerful as anything Hollywood can throw at us." –V.A. Musetto, New York Post
in 1971, Daniel Ellsberg, a high-level Pentagon official and Vietnam War strategist, concludes that the war is based on decades of lies and leaks 7,000 pages of top secret documents to The New York Times, making headlines around the world. Hailed as a hero, vilified as a traitor, and ostracized by even his closest colleagues, Ellsberg risks life in prison to stop a war he helped plan.
This is the riveting story of one man's profound crisis of conscience that shook a nation, its courts, its free press and its presidency to the core. It is also an acutely timely and piercing look at the world of government secrecy in wartime as revealed by the ultimate insider. Marked by a landmark Supreme Court battle between America's greatest newspapers and its president, this political thriller unravels a saga that leads directly to Watergate, Nixon's resignation and the end of the Vietnam War. With Daniel Ellsberg, Patricia Ellsberg, Tony Russo, Howard Zinn, Hedrick Smith, John Dean, and, from the secret White House tapes, Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger, who called Ellsberg "the most dangerous man in America." (92 mins., 35mm)

text: Excellent obvservation and one that is often missed. Most softener meters are not highly accurate especially at lower flow rates. This is due to cost and space design considerations. Your city water meter is highly accurate at even the lowest flow since they are charging you for the water. The design of these meters is based on positive displacement (not sure of the technical term but you get the point). Softener meters are typically slip stream or turbine/impeller designs. Low flows do not get registered, but since most softeners have reserves built into them, this is usually not noticed, RO systems, humidifiers, faucet and toilet leaks are usually not registered. If the problem is particularly bad, you can compare the city meter to your softener meter to see the difference. Sounds like you got it perfectly though, you may have to adjust your system to accomodate the missed water.

Luigi"s Pizza – Best Pizza EVER.. Been a customer since 1970, then married, my 2 children will only eat at Luigi's and the in-law's.
Everyone I have ever taken for Pizza, from Florida to the East and West Coast LOVES it.. and when they come back to town this is the first place we come to eat.
Actually I will be there later this afternoon, oh, and the service is Great. All this years and everything remains
the same... TYVM
Great Pies – Best thin crust pizza in Genesee County! Great soup and salad luncheon special! Owner, operator establishment which makes it a great deal better, NOT a franchise.
Great Thin Crust – Awesome thin crust pizza and the Charlie Chaplin steak with mushrooms is always very good. Great for groups or couples though not for romance, just for good food!
um um good – excellent place to eat, i would go there anytime, very very good food

Parks >Us Zion National Park
Hwy 9, Springdale, UT | Directions 8476737.190127 -112.995316
The natural beauty of this park makes it a favorite with backpackers and sightseers. – Overview
Zion is Utah's oldest national park and a popular tourist destination. People come from all over the world to see the towering cliffs, secluded canyons and lush hanging gardens. The park displays colors year-round, from red rock formations to colorful wildflowers and changing fall foliage.
The Experience
The park offers paved hiking trails to many of the most popular attractions, campgrounds, a nature center for children, guided hikes, naturalist programs and evening campfire talks. Hiking the spectacular trails is the best way to take it all in, though just driving through the park is awe-inspiring. From April to October, the Zion Canyon Scenic Drive is closed to automobiles, but a shuttle bus transports visitors to the upper canyon.
Revitalizing Experience – My mother-in-law and I went to Zion National Park for 4 days this summer and hiked through the Narrows, up the mountainside, to the waterfalls... Those 4 days of hiking were so revitalizing and uplifting that I'm heading back again very soon. I recoment this park for anyone who needs a well deserved R & R and a revitalizing experience to boot!
10+ – I have lived in Utah my whole life and have been to Zion's many times. All I can say is after all these years, it is still breathtakingly beautiful. From the red rock to the waterfalls, you just can't seem to find a place that compares in beauty or adventure. This place is awesome!
God's Country – The Narrows hike was one of the most breathtaking hikes I've ever had. The colors in the rocks is something that has to be seen to belive. But if you take this hike you better be ready to be in water because only a mile and a half is on dry ground.
Serenity at its best. – This is the most relaxing atmosphere for a hike. I would defiantly recommend the waterfall hike. You hike through a canyon that is mostly full of water that ranges from ankle deep to waist deep. Beware of the flash flood warnings they come as fast as they leave. Everyone that you come across on the trail is a nice and conciderate as can be. Seems like this place brings out the best in people young and old alike.
Stunning – This is one of the most incredible places on Earth. Short hikes are ideal for families with children of all ages and the views are stunning no matter what time of year you come. It's the perfect place to view some of Utah's native wildlife. Campsites are well-kept and have nice, basic facilities. We stayed at the lodge outside the park a couple of years ago. It was a little expensive, but the rooms were very clean and comfortable and the views from the balconies are lovely--plus easy access to the park.
Am I the on;y "not the best in Utah"? – I have lived in Utah for three years and I am beyond wowed by the scenery here. Zions is amazing, but compared to other National Parks, it is not the best. Granted, the hikes and scenery is beautiful, but the Park is so popular that is is very crowded. Think about Capitol Reef, Arches, Cayonlands, Bryce...the list can go on forever. Zion's is great, but there are TONS of better hikes in this fantasticlt beautiful State.

THIS I KNOW: Snapshots of life lessons in peoples own words. An interview with Little Richard as he prepares to celebrate his 80th birthday Wednesday.
God has been good to me.
Nobody in my family lived to get this age. None of the men.
I dont drink, I dont smoke. Im not putting nobody down that do, because to each his own.
Theres a lot of secrets to a good hairdo. Now you dont have to have no secrets because you can buy one whenever you want to. Back in my time, you couldnt. Now you can buy a hairstyle and put it in your pocket and put it in your locker.
Ive been living in California for about 50 years, but you still cant beat your home. You still love your home better than anywhere youve ever been.
Its like Im going back into time when I come to Macon, like Im going back in a old capsule, living my life all over again. ... When I go into Pleasant Hill where I was raised and born, ... I dont see much difference.
They probably call it thuggy. Macon has never been thuggy, or whatever they call that, to me. I love Macon and I always will love Macon. I think that people that have given it a bad blow or a bad consideration because ... its not a rich place with a lot of money. But people that are there, they have worked hard. ... I cant discredit Macon in any way. ... Macon is the greatest, greatest, greatest city in the world.
I used to wait cars at Pig n Whistle. I learned to be careful, and that everybody can love everybody if they want to.
One thing I cant do without and I wont do without: You cant do without love. Without love, I aint had nothing. The secret of everything is love. ... Love is it.
The black and the white, we should love each other regardless of what color we are.
Most of my family is vegetarians.
I love Drakkar. It just has a subtle smell. Its not over-sweet, its not over-done. It just barely comes after you.
My greatest extravagance back when I was young was clothing. I used to like the splash, ... the sparkle, the bling. ... My shoes, like now, I wear diamond shoes. ... But theyre not real diamonds. Its the bling. Whos gonna wear diamond shoes and get your leg taken off? Why should I wear a diamond hat and get my head taken off?
The worst sound of anything to me is evil. ... Hatred and animosity and evil, the sound that keeps everybody down.
Money is a necessity. We dont get along with it and we cant get along without it.
Death shakes all of us up.
Everybody in the South is not bad, and everybody in the North is not good.
I worry about people not fulfilling what God has put here for us to fulfill.
When a man is hungry, he dont care whether the hand is black or white that brings that biscuit.
If a person is very serious in life, whatever he undertakes to do, he will do it with all of his heart and all of his might to make sure that its done right and done with class.
If you cant take it, you cant make it.

Welcome to Wyoming! This "forever west" paradise is one of the most rural, untouched states in the nation, which makes it one of the best outdoor vacation destinations! For your next vacation, consider planning a trip to Wyoming where you can hike, bike, fish, go on an authentic cattle drive and stay in a dude ranch!
Begin your Wyoming vacation, by spending a few days at Yellowstone National Park, the nation's first national park. Yellowstone is home to the famous Old Faithful Geyser, a unique natural wonder that you must see on your vacation in Wyoming! You'll be amazed by the Mammoth Hot Springs, thermal bursts that break through the rock, and Yellowstone's own Grand Canyon. There are plenty of nature walks, day long hiking trails and beautiful forests to explore at Yellowstone. Stay, shop and dine at the Lake Yellowstone Hotel in the park, or if you're looking for a more rugged, outdoor experience, camp at the Norris Campground.
Next up on your Wyoming vacation, take a tour of a Wyoming ranch, participate in a cattle drive in the Cody region, or hike the Overland Trail through Elk Mountain! Wyoming is speckled with log cabins throughout rural areas and mountain ranges and you can rent one of these cabins or cottages for a genuine Wyoming experience. For more active outdoor adventures take a day trip to Grand Teton National Park or check out Devils Tower National Monument. During your vacation in Wyoming make sure to try some of the nation's best fishing in Jackson Hole, and if you'd like to try a different kind of water adventure, take a scenic float or white water rafting tour in Red Canyon River.
Last but not least, head to the state capitol and largest city in Wyoming, Cheyenne. This "forever west" city is located in the southeast corner of Wyoming and is a great place to spend a few days during your Wyoming vacation. Try some local fare, shop downtown or sightsee at the state capitol building and historic Governor's Mansion. For the ultimate western experience, buy your tickets to the Cheyenne frontier days, happening at the end of July each year. This festival is the world's largest rodeo, a celebration of western heritage, the cowboy and cattle driving lifestyle and a great time for all visitors!
Let RealAdventures help you plan this unforgettable Wyoming vacation today!

Robert Fripps diary entry for February 10th 2011 mentions that the JFC album A Scarcity of Miracles is being mixed (and presumably released) in 5.1.
Robert Fripps diary entry for February 10th 2011 mentions that the JFC album A Scarcity of Miracles is being mixed (and presumably released) in 5.1.
I'm extremely excited about this. Fripp is calling it a King Crimson ProjeKct. With the rhythm section of Tony Levin and Gavin Harrison, I am treating this as new Crimson album. I wonder what it will sound like!
An earlier entry in his diary mentions that they are looking at this May to release it. Along with Lark's Tongues, Starless and Bible Black, the Discipline Trilogy, and Jakko's 5.1 mix of Thrak, this is just getting more and more exciting.
...this night wounds time...
Wow, thanks for these posts, I need to work less and read about my hobby and fav bands more!
Called the tune in a chequered suit...

Weee! Not a lot in a long time, and now a lot in a short time.
A little of what you fancy does you good. (Or so it should.)
Ian Anderson
now available for pre-order (may 30 release) from the good folks at Burning Shed:
Cheers Fletch
This really sounds good. Gavin Harrison on drums?
Pre ordered today !
Just ordered - thanks for the heads -up! Really looking forward to this - NEW KC (almost) music - a real treat - still very anxious for the next batch of KC releases (Starless & Larks Tongue) - rumored Sept release - seems too long to wait!
Pre-ordered mine yesterday. ProjeKct or no, I see this as new Crimson. And it comes out the day after I return from a trip out of the country! Even without hearing it I am excited about the fact that it is in surround.
...this night wounds time...
Hi! My name is Almen, and I have to buy everything related to King Crimson.
A little of what you fancy does you good. (Or so it should.)
Ian Anderson
Burning Shed confirm A Scarcity Of Miracles (cd / dvda) has shipped…. Whooo
Yes, I got it as well. It has to ship from the UK to the USA so I have no idea how long it will take. I hope someone reviews it as soon as it comes in!
...this night wounds time...
Somehow I let this slip by me....rectified with an order. Sounds like lots of nice extras on there also. John
Avatar: a Goddess...Capucine -...The Ice Queen
"LIFE is NOT in Stereo , it's in SURROUND, so why limit your music to stereo...? By that same train of thought we should've stayed in MONO..." -Me
I got a confirmation of shipping yesterday but no disc today :-( Boo Hoo
hopefully Tomorrow as its a bank holiday weekend so next delivery wont be untill Tuesday.
Cheers Fletch
It arrived yesterday and I am impressed with the Surround mix on first listen.
The music was not what I was expecting though I am not sure what that was, No compalints though. will need to listen at greater volume when the kids and neighbors are out before giving it a vote assumeing that this will ahve its own little voting section.
Cheers Fletch
Hmm...thats a bit cryptic. Is the rest like the title track? Good to hear that the surround is well used.
Record Collector Magazine gave the album 4 out of 5 stars. All About Jazz said it was the best album to come from the Fripp camp (Crimson or not) in 30 years.
...this night wounds time...
I suppose yes the sound is closer to the title track, however IMHO the title track is the weakest of the tracks, on first listen. I dont think its as 'commercial' as a King Crimson album if that is also a bit cryptic.
Cheers Fletch
Well - it's made it across the pond and found it's way to merry old Connecticut! First full listen and I'm very happy - will have to dig deeper before I say my peace. Excellent 5.1 lossless mix - very atmospheric - good job by all!
Hello. I blew it by ordering this at DGMLive.com, the "Official" site. Cost more than at Burning Shed, and I have no idea when it is to arrive. No emails in regards to being shipped. Ugh! I guess I'm on a roll, also, with the Caravan Dubbleeeeeee package about to arrive (I may return it STAT to Amazon UK). Oh, and the Chicago Blackfield show, unfortunately for all involved, being offed. Will patiently wait to get back on the train with the Acoustic Sounds WYWH SACD and Aqulaung DVD-A (?) Pre-Orders. Thanks.
Now I know to go to Burning Shed, I got it today and am loving it.
The first half seems very mellow, the second half gets really proggy, strange, psychedelic, and atmospheric. "The Other Man" is a straight up new King Crimson song. Need more listens, but I am happy!
...this night wounds time...
Ordered yesterday.
Quick question:
Who did the 5.1 mix?
Jakko did it and its very good.
I am starting to think he is going to be up their with Scheiner and Wilson as a goto man for a surround mix
Cheers Fletch

I worked at Bank of America full-time for more than 10 years
Pros – There are lots of benefits available to you as an employee of the company. These range from the typical healthcare benefits to banking products and other discounts.
Cons – Generally, an employee is just a number. Do not expect any significant degree of loyalty on behalf of the organization.
Advice to Senior Management – Treat your people more like people and less like a number and you will get a lot more out of them.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

What temperature do you normally cook a pork tenderloin at? I was searching on the internet and saw anywhere from 325° to 450° and couldn't seem to find a good answer.
Also, does it depend on how long you want to cook it or in how you prepare it before cooking?

BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier Original
" This is the carrier I used for small infants. It is the easiest to get them into and out of. I own two of the same ones, one for in the house and one for the car.

" It took my son a couple of weeks to adjust to this carrier and he eventually liked being in it. I found it very helpful at first; the hands-free capability. However, as my son grew and gained weight, carrying him in the Air hurt my back. I just thought it was me, but the carrier really had minimal back support.

Nash: Tunica Airport going 'green'
Starting in May, the Tunica Airport will begin using a new fuel hydrant system that will give the facility a "green" designation.
Director Cliff Nash said this week that the hydrant system replaces mobile units that are currently in use. The new system will also save about $43,000 per year, he added.
This change is one of several improvements that are being considered at the facility. Airport officials traveled to Washington recently to seek approval to use $1.5 million in federal Airport Improvement Program funds toward construction of a new 20,000 square foot hangar. Nash said the current hangar is at capacity, with Covington Aircraft operating from it and with 15 private aircraft now based here, including two Lear 45 jets that are owned by Dillard's. Dillard's has expressed interest in basing a larger aircraft here, but that is on hold until more hangar space becomes available, Nash said.
