Man charged in 2010 thefts in Lebo
A Bridgeville man, Zachary H. Gonze, was charged with three counts of robbery stemming from three incidents in Mt. Lebanon in 2010.
An arrest warrant was issued Feb. 7 and he turned himself in to police Feb. 8. Gonze was placed in the Allegheny County Jail on $25,000 bond, police said.
The charges involved three armed robberies in a about a two-week period in the fall of 2010.
Gonze, 26, of 3513 Chrismar Court, is charged with the armed robbery of a woman Sept. 30, 2010, at the ATM outside the PNC Bank in Virginia Manor Shops on Cochran Road.
The 64-year-old woman was returning to her vehicle at 9:48 a.m. when police say Gonze approached her holding a knife. He demanded cash, which she gave to him, and he fled on foot.
On Oct. 4, 2010, a 64-year-old man was robbed by Gonze after the man was returning to his vehicle at 3:55 p.m. after using the ATM outside Dollar Bank, also in Virginia Manor Shops, police said. The man said he was threatened with a knife. He gave Gonze the money, after which Gonze fled on foot, police said. The man suffered a small cut on his hand, believed to have occurred during the money exchange, police said.
A 50 year-old woman at first refused to give up her purse when Gonze approached her in the 600 block of Washington Road at 9:29 p.m. Oct. 15, police said.
After a struggle, the woman fell to the ground and released her purse when Gonze threatened that he had a knife, police said. He took the purse and fled west on foot on Cedar Boulevard, police said. The woman suffered minor abrasions on her hands and knees.
A preliminary hearing was held Feb. 28 before District Judge Blaise Larotonda where all charges were held for trial. Larotonda reduced Gonze's bond from $25,000 to$1,000, 10 percent acceptable.

Court Opinions
TORTS: Agency, Respondeat Superior, RICO; EVIDENCE: Self-Contradictory Testimony
Alert: Evidence that the mortgage company manager told a loan originator to forge plaintiff's name to a quitclaim deed raised a jury issue as to whether the company ratified and was liable for the forgery.
Subject Matter Index: Revision.
Headnote: In Rains v. Dolphin Mortgage Corp., A99A1042 (11/16/99), 99 FCDR 4359 (12/17/99), the Court of Appeals reversed the grant of summary judgment to Dolphin Mortgage Corp. in Glenda Rains' fraud, forgery and RICO action, holding that a jury question remains as to whether Dolphin ratified a loan originator's forgery of Rains' name to a quitclaim deed. The original opinion had two Division 2s. The Court has issued a substitute opinion correcting that error, renumbering the second Division 2 as Division 3 and the former Division 3 as Division 4. The Court also added a Division 5 to address Rains' claims under the RICO Act and for punitive damages. The Court held that jury questions remain as to both claims, since evidence of the loan originator's forgery and his later perjury at a deposition would demonstrate two incidents of interrelated racketeering activity, and there is evidence of possible fraud that would support punitive damages. The full text of the revised opinion is published below.
Text: Phipps, Herbert E., JudgeGlenda Rains sued her sister, April Marie Roberson, Tommy McEarchern, Dolphin Mortgage Corporation, and others for forgery, fraud, violation of the Georgia RICO Act, and punitive damages. The trial court granted Dolphin's motion for summary judgment, finding that (1) the corporation was not liable for McEarchern's acts because he was not an actual or apparent agent, (2) Dolphin did not ratify McEarchern's actions, and (3) forgery was outside the scope of any employment or agency relationship between Dolphin and McEarchern. Rains appeals from that order and contends that there are genuine issues of material fact regarding all of the trial court's findings. We agree that issues of material fact remain for the jury's consideration and therefore we reverse.
Rains and Roberson each inherited from their father a one-half interest in certain residential property. Roberson, as executrix of their father's estate, conveyed the property to Rains and herself by Executor's Deed. Rains and Roberson discussed selling the property, but Rains did nothing to effect a sale.
In December, 1996, Rains received a telephone call from McEarchern, who claimed that he worked for Dolphin. McEarchern told Rains that her father's former property was to be sold and that she needed to sign a quitclaim deed. Several days later, McEarchern called again, identified himself as being affiliated with Dolphin, and informed Rains that the house would be sold with or without her signature. Rains responded that she was not signing anything until she had a chance to speak with her attorney.
Later Rains read in the newspaper that the property had been sold. After hiring an attorney, Rains discovered that her name had been forged to a quitclaim deed, which conveyed her one-half interest in the property to Roberson. Roberson then conveyed the property to Robert and Tina Marshall, who knew nothing about the forged document.
At deposition, McEarchern testified that he had been employed by Dolphin for six months as an agent or loan originator and had closed ten to twenty loans for them. He testified that he had received on-the-job training from Lupita McCarthy, the manager of Dolphin's Atlanta office, on how to complete the loan documents and that he had assisted people in filling out the forms. He insisted that he had not forged Rains's name to the quitclaim deed.
In response to Dolphin's motion for summary judgment, Rains submitted an affidavit from McEarchern. In his affidavit, McEarchern swore that he had been employed by Dolphin as a loan originator, that he had received commissions from Dolphin, and that McCarthy had given him a Dolphin business card to use as a model for having his own printed. He also admitted that he had forged Rains's name to the quitclaim deed, but stated that McCarthy had told him to sign it to close the loan and that Dolphin would take care of it. McEarchern stated that McCarthy had told him how to testify at his deposition and had specifically instructed him to deny signing the quitclaim deed.
Initially McCarthy testified at deposition that Dolphin had never compensated McEarchern for referring loan applicants, but later acknowledged that Dolphin did pay him on three or four occasions. McCarthy knew that McEarchern had been distributing business cards with his name and the Dolphin name and logo on them and testified that she had told him to stop. McCarthy said she and her assistant manager, Don Williams, had become concerned when they heard that McEarchern was telling people he worked for Dolphin and they had decided to have him sign a letter of resignation. The letter, which was prepared by Williams and signed by McEarchern, stated that McEarchern was resigning his employment as a loan officer for Dolphin.
Williams testified that McEarchern had been involved in approximately ten loans for Dolphin, and that he had received some compensation for his work. Dolphin's Vice President and its compliance manager testified at deposition that Dolphin had issued McEarchern five checks with the word "commission" written on them, but contended that they should have said "referral fee" instead.
We review the trial court's grant of summary judgment de novo to determine whether the evidence demonstrates any genuine issue of material fact.1 To prevail, the moving party must demonstrate that there are no genuine issues of any material fact and that the undisputed facts, viewed in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party, support judgment as a matter of law.2 "A defendant may do this by showing the court that the documents, affidavits, depositions and other evidence in the record reveal that there is no evidence sufficient to create a jury issue on at least one essential element of plaintiff's case."3
1. Dolphin contends that McEarchern's affidavit must be construed against Rains because it contradicts his prior deposition testimony.
Where a party offers self-contradictory testimony in response to a motion for summary judgment, without reasonable explanation for the contradiction, the testimony must be construed against the party.4 This rule also applies to testimony given on behalf of a party.5
McEarchern's affidavit contradicts his deposition testimony, but also offers an explanation for the discrepancy-that McCarthy told him how to testify at his deposition and instructed him to deny signing the quitclaim deed. We find his explanation reasonable and, as a result, will not construe his affidavit against Rains.
2. Rains contends that there is sufficient evidence in the record to support a finding that McEarchern was an agent or employee of Dolphin.
To determine whether a person is an employee or an independent contractor, we examine whether the employer assumes the right to control the time, manner, and method of executing the work.6 The right to control the time means the right to control the actual hours of work.7 The right to control the manner and method means the right to tell the employee how to perform all details of the job, including the tools he should use and the procedures he should follow.8
Viewing the evidence in Rains's favor, we find no basis on which to conclude that McEarchern was an employee of Dolphin. There is no evidence that Dolphin had the right to control the hours McEarchern worked. The record does show that McEarchern received payments from Dolphin that were identified as commissions and that McCarthy and Williams, who Dolphin admits are employees, were compensated by commission. The record also shows that Dolphin employees instructed McEarchern to sign a letter of resignation, which they drafted. But those facts do not show that Dolphin had the right to control the way McEarchern performed his work. The only evidence that Dolphin had the right to control the time, manner, or method of McEarchern's work is that McCarthy provided him with training on how to prepare loan documents. Under the circumstances, we cannot conclude that a genuine issue of material fact exists on this issue.
3. Rains challenges the trial court's holding that McEarchern was not an apparent or ostensible agent of Dolphin.
To subject an alleged principal to liability under a theory of apparent or ostensible agency, a plaintiff must show
(1) that the alleged principal held out another as its agent; (2) that the plaintiff justifiably relied on the care or skill of the alleged agent based upon the alleged principal's representation; and (3) that this justifiable reliance led to the injury.9
Even if Dolphin held McEarchern out as its agent, there is no evidence that Rains justifiably relied on Dolphin's representations or that her reliance led to the harm caused by McEarchern.10 We find that the trial court correctly granted summary judgment to Dolphin on this issue.
4. Rains contends that Dolphin ratified McEarchern's actions and therefore should be liable for them.
The relationship of principal and agent may be established if one person, expressly or by implication, ratifies the acts of another on his behalf.11 Whether a ratification occurred is generally a question of fact for the jury.12 Ratification may occur if a business entity accepts the benefits of an act done by another on its behalf, although that person had no actual or apparent authority to act for the business.13 Even forgery by one purporting to act on behalf of another may be ratified.14
We find sufficient evidence exists to create a genuine issue of material fact about whether McEarchern's actions were ratified. His actions were taken for Dolphin's benefit, and McCarthy acknowledged that she and Dolphin retained the benefits of those actions. There is evidence that Dolphin, through McCarthy (its admitted employee and the office manager), not only knew of but directed McEarchern's actions. Because we find these facts sufficient to create a jury question on whether McEarchern was an agent via ratification, we reverse the trial court's grant of summary judgment to Dolphin.
5. By granting Dolphin's motion for summary judgment in its entirety, the trial court also disposed of Rains's claim under the Georgia RICO Act and her claim for punitive damages. We find material issues of fact with respect to these claims also.
As to the RICO claim, Dolphin argues that there is no evidence of a pattern of racketeering activity. This argument is without merit. Under RICO, a pattern of racketeering activity requires at least two incidents of interrelated racketeering activity, i.e., predicate offenses.15 Here, there is evidence that, pursuant to directions by McCarthy, McEarchern committed forgery in the first degree by signing Rains's name to the quitclaim deed and uttering or delivering it at closing,16 and perjury by giving false testimony at his deposition.17
As to Rains's claim for punitive damages, Dolphin argues that there has been no proof by clear and convincing evidence of fraud or other actionable misconduct so as to authorize imposition of punitive damages under OCGA § 51-12-5.1 (b). There is no merit in this argument. This is a jury question.18

Equipping your home kitchen doesn't require hundreds of dollars or Swedish ceramics. Arm yourself with these eight essential, and manly, culinary tools and you'll have all you need to dominate your kitchen right at your fingertips.
Mastering the art of food is about resourcefulness and creativity. Hunting and gathering are no longer about men and food; those terms now only apply to survival in general, whatever the scenario. Leave behind the bachelor on the frozen pizza and ramen diet. Equip your passion to live well– combine knowledge with tools and make a lot, using very little. There are a lot of contraptions out there designed for specific tasks but countless meals can be created with a handful of quality essentials — 8 to be exact.
This guide assumes that cutlery and cupboard fillers are already covered (bowls, plates, forks etc.)
1. Chef's Knife
In many ways the knife is an extension of the arm, choose carefully. There are dozens of knife varieties out there but if a good meal is like a battle, a good chef's knife is your greatest ally. It's worth spending some money on because a good knife will last you a life time.
Balance is key–it should rest across your fingers and feel as natural in your hand as shoes do on your feet. The knife you want will have a 6-10 inch triangular blade that has a significantly thicker spine (blunt side of the blade) than the cutting edge. A slightly curved cutting edge enables a rocking motion when chopping; though some prefer a straighter edge. Look for thicker, heavier blades that do not bend easily; push your thumb against the edge to test it.
Forged knives are made from a single chunk of material. Generally, they are more balanced than blocked (stamped out of a roll of sheet metal) knives. Quality wise, a forged knife is to a stamped one as a fresh ground burger is to a frozen patty. A forged knife is thicker where the blade meets the handle; this section of the blade is called the bolster and also shows how thick the original metal was. The best forged knives are single pieces of metal that length-wise run from the tip of the blade to the back of end of the handle.
We reviewed a set by J.A. Henckels , they've done us right so far.
There are many places to shop for knives, I recommend finding one in a kitchen store near you that feels right. Once you find one you like you can probably find the exact model for cheaper online. Here is a good site to get an idea of styles and price ranges.
2. Honing Steel
Steel rod with a handle, often referred to as sharpening steel
Honing, not to be confused with sharpening, is crucial to the proper upkeep of your chef's knife. A knife that slices easily through tomato skin and meat can be incredibly satisfying but few things are as frustrating as a knife that just makes lines on whatever you're trying to cut. Honing realigns and straightens micros...

Everyone is still talking about the Ray Emery - Braden Holtby "fight" which occurred during a massive brawl between the Flyers and Capitals. It'd be easy to rank that incident as the best from last week due to the sheer spectacle of it all, but we've opted to go in a different direction. Which fight leads the way? Read on to find out. 5. George Parros (MON) vs Patrick Bordeleau (COL) - Nov 2 This Parros-Bordeleau scrap isn't overly special by any means, but it was Parros' first fight after his frightening injury back on the first day of the season. It's also significant because Parros isn't sporting his iconic moustache. Judging by his performance, we're assuming Parros' fighting skills are directly linked to his 'stache. 4. Alexander Urbom (WAS) vs Brayden Schenn (PHI) - Nov 1 The line brawl between Philadelphia and Washington led to an incredibly ugly moment from Emery, but it also produced a pretty solid fight between...

Cain's running form [split]
the cain article in the recent t&fnews has salazar talking about her bad armswing from barcelona being the technical factor she needed to correct
video shows what he was talking about
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
Pot, calling kettle - come in kettle?
Salazar's gait was one of the more unseemly of his time and it seemed to have worked OK. Yes, her biomechanics leave something to be desired, but tinker with her form at your peril!
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
I think he is on record as saying his biomechanics cost him.
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
salazar video on running form
at the 3 minute mark, i think there;s the basic problem he saw in cain in the 4:11 race
i'd think henwood, day to day is more responsible for smoothing out cain than anyone
salazar was ragged in his day, but making cain more flexible will help her
the 60 from 50 miles per week is not a huge leap
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
I would say......
Tara Erdmann in Seattle
Heather Wilson in NYC (the 1st HSR in the mile)
Erdmann AGAIN in Boston
Sarah Bowman in Boston
Ashley Higginson in Boston
Bowman AGAIN in the Armory (the SECOND HSR in the mile)
Jordan Hasay in the Armory
Abbey D'Agostino in the Armory
Emma Coburn in the Armory
AND a few OTHERS......
might tend to disagree with that assessment!!
The only women she has NOT beaten this indoor season are:
Sarah Bowman and Nicole Sifuentes in the 1st HSR mile.....
Sheila Reid in the 2 mile and the 2nd HSR in the mile.....
and the UNbeatable Tirunesh Dibaba!!!
She has beaten EVERYONE ELSE!!!
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
i though cain beat bowman at millrose??
did you read the t&f newws article
the 4:11 you can see waht salazar was talking about
the cross crooss of the arms is evident in 2011
salazar and henwood have worked on upper body flexibity
the criss cross is gone
aronnk you know i like cain alot, but the article poinyed out what a good coach can do
henwood and salazar have good eyes
also the mention of her running in college, dont know if it'll be the ajee model, or the hasay model
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
Yes, she beat Bowman at Millrose!!
(All but Reid!!)
My list was of women she BEAT.....those who LOST to her (in a particular race!).
She LOST to Bowman in her first HSR mile, but BEAT her at Millrose!!
As to her arm swing, it might be "improved", but I side with Marlow.....
Don't mess with what works!!
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
Isn't that the point of the conversation (and of all coaching)? They're attempting to "mess" with a part that is sub-optimal (i.e., that doesn't "work").
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
Salazar is not trying to have Mary Cain beat Sarah Bowman.
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
i respect marlowe, but salazar was very specific
salazar did say ehr footstrike and and loweer body mechanics are quite ggood
there was a mention of personality conflicts with her hs team
salazar saw the video and contacted cain abouther upper body mechanics
her arms were crossing her upper body completely
and mixing it up
her elbows were way way out
at hs she'd always lead from the start, but salazar has her let others lead, staying calm and staying relaxed
focusing on the kick and honing that skill
salazar and henwood focusing on nut;s and bolts of biomechanics, intervals and stretching
apparently this is the same stuff salazar did for rupp at jesuit
it's all about making you a complete runner 10 years down the stretch
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
he is looking into cain future and making her the best runner she may be, one day running the sort of race farah and rupp have shown themseles able to run
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
Yes, he has observed that about himself, as he has about his approaches to training, which both led him to great performances and also cost him. I think if the Salazar of today could coach the Salazar of 30ish years ago, he would try to address some of these issues (and would, I believe, have an even faster Salazar). (I will keep working on my time machine and the needed metaphysical theories to make this scenario feasible...)
Here's a more general question, for Marlow -- One thing I have never understood in T& F coaching is what you expressed here. I've heard it from so many over the years, always regarding distance runners: Don't mess with their form. But we work on technique, mechanics, efficiency, and every darn thing we can reasonably address, with every other discipline in the sport. Why not with distance runners? The challenge is the same here as with any coach in any part of the sport: There is always risk ("tinkering at our peril") in addressing the "natural" ways any gifted athlete executes her or his event, but great coaches know what to address, to what extent, in order to make those marginal improvements toward maximizing potential. Less than great coaches misdiagnose, overcorrect, etc. and screw things up. That's the territory of coaching. Nevertheless, Why have I always heard more "peril" expressed around addressing these things with distance runners than with anyone else in the sport? The fact that distance running is "less technical" can't be the answer, because technique, mechanics, efficiency always matters. We're always trying to find the best transfer of energy into forward motion, etc. I am interested in your thoughts on this.
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
Her head is also way out in front of her body. I have a lesser version of this and it caused me problems. That is a lot of weight to have cantilevered in front of her.
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
Back in the mid-70's, when my hair was BELOW my shoulders....and THICK......I was told by San Francisco's late Walter Stack (Remember him, anyone??) that.....if I cut my hair, I could chop a minute per mile off my marathon time!!!
More seriously, I was told by a coach (Not MY coach, but one I knew well!) that I "bounced too much" when I ran....and that I could improve my times greatly if I could stop bouncing!!
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
the salazar video on running form speaks on head placement
suspect henwood and salazar have long term plans for cain
seems there short term approach has results
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
My suspicion regarding why coaches are reluctant to work on a distance runner's form is that most distance coaches don't know squat about technique or biomechanics. My high school coach didn't know much about distance running (I trained far too little and did far too much interval work) but as a strong technical sprint/jump/hurdle coach, he fixed my truly awful mechanics. In the long run this was very good, because I had just one injury in all my college years even while putting in triple-digit weekly mileage.
When you've got a coach who understands both the training and technique aspect of distance running, then you've got a good one.
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
I am a big fan of bio-mechanical efficiency, and it is indeed a coach's job to help an athlete achieve that, but . . . sometimes athletes instinctively do what's best for THEM, even though it doesn't fit the 'model', and many times (not all) they are right. A good coach must tinker with, but not break, his/her athletes' form.
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
We have talked about this quite a few times before and I agree with that. I have been running about 45 years with a lot of 100+ weeks starting in high school and really never had a major running injury and still doing about 4-5 a day. And that was running a lot in Tiger Marathons that have a 1/2 inch hard cushioning. You just learn to run that is comfortable. And I think Salazar is doing a bit of wishful thinking about his running career. His form wasn't that bad. Little shoulder roll, arms relaxed. Perhaps a bit of overstriding. But to think his career was short because of his running form is a bit much. Salazar's problem really started when he ran Boston only 10 days after a 10,000 in Eugene.
As for running form in general Jack Daniels has done a lot of research on this and the verdict is leave well enough alone.
In the more than three decades since that lab experiment, a take-home message from it has been endlessly repeated: Don't mess with your running form. Over time, your body will find its best way of running. The more you run, the more your body will find its natural form. Just run, baby.
For starters, let's go back to the Rodgers experiment. No reputable source claims that, at any one instant, significantly altering your form from what your body is used to will make you faster. Coaching legend and longtime lab rat Jack Daniels has tested thousands of runners over the last 40 years. "I have tested runners' economy of running with their hands in their pockets, on their hips, folded on top of their heads, etc., and it always costs more than when using a normal arm swing," he says.

Re: Cain's running form [split]
I would like to add, that one of the best, and essential, ways to improve form is running intervals or at least something fast once in a while. Something a lot joggers never do.
Re: Cain's running form [split]
Salazar was a shuffler par excellence. I remember being at a meet once and somebody joked that he was lifting less than the walkers.
Re: Cain's running form [split]
Yea, he didn't have much of a back kick at all. Viren was like that too, a very low back kick. But no one goes around saying what shitty form he had. Just different physiques.
Another point is I think running on hard surfaces, such as roads, as good for you. That pounding really makes you run efficiently. Running on grass all of the time lets you get away with murder. Watch the 1983 NYC marathon sometime and notice the difference between Geoff Smith and the winner Rod Dixon. Dixon has a fast quick turnover, while Smith is in the air much longer with way too much lift. Years later, Smith eventually needed a hip replacement and doesn't run anymore, while Dixon is still racing pretty well for his age.
On a similar note, I remember the first time these sisters from England came to Boulder years ago. I went on a 10 mile run with them and we spent the whole time trying to run on grass. It drove me nuts since Boulder isn't known for big grassy areas, but that was what they were use to. They were also known for their rather unorthodox running form, and I think led to their rather short, but excellent, careers. I tried to help with some advice but it was rather hopeless.
Re: Cain's running form [split]
That Rodgers experiment only indicates that changing forms becomes harder as a runner gets older and has accumulated more mileage on feet.
That's why Salazar insists it's important to learn the efficient form when a runner is very early in his/her career. Trying to change Ritz's running form was a mistake (he was too old and advanced for that), but Cain is young enough to change her form. And he is not trying to fundamentally revamp her form. What they are trying to do is to make adjustment based on her current form.
Does any one here believe James Li did disservice to Lagat by changing his form at Washington State? Would he have had a career as long and successful with his original form?
(As for Salazar's early demise, the #1 culprit was probably not taking enough rest when needed. That's why he is giving his runners plenty of rest like 2 weeks break at the end of a season.)
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
Not to mention that one would hope that he would learn over the years as that remark would indicate he had.
Re: Cain's running form [split]
bad form that needed correction:
Zatopek gee he's all over the place
Gammoudi - especially when kicking
Prefontaine had a bad habit of looking to the left
Ryun bobbled head
Lee Evans
Bob Hayes - not smooth enough
Cruz over strider
Juantorena another over strider
Fosbury - not a distance guy but his form needed major help
Marsh - form passable but racing strategy too unorthodox
Jenner - too much side to side and head movement when tired
thats just off top of my head where there is a greater or lesser need for attention to form
More (or less seriously) these guys maintained their idiosyncratic form after their school years and into post HS and collegiate seasons. I do concur that messin with the form of a female runner who ran 2:03 as a frosh (or is it soph) is risky business. And the pot calling kettle is what I thought when the "she needs to fix her form" announcement was uttered.
I had a team mate in college who ran completely on his toes - heels never touch the ground. There had been a number of efforts to rectify. No luck. He ended up running 2:17 marathon ... back in the day and was nationally ranked (TFN) I think two years. Plus he was one of the first 10 or so guys to break 9:00 2 mile in HS (as a Jr) - all on his toes.
I guess AL can give it a go but I would be leery of become so focused on that ......
OK have at it boys
Re: Cain's running form [split]
Yeah, that's why Lagat had such a short career, right? He runs on grass all the time, and James Li forced him to change his "natural" form.
Damn, if he was allowed to run on hard surfaces in his natural form, he would still be competing in 1500m instead of moving up to 5000m.
And of course, Nike wasted their money by building a wood chip running loop on their campus. Mo, Galen and Ritz would be more successful if they ran on the asphalt instead of dirt trail, wood chip and grass field. Too bad Salazar is so clueless.
Re: Cain's running form [split]
I have never been a big fan of running on grass. Dirt roads are a different thing.
But different courses for different horses I say....
Of course, the East Africans really learned proper form at an early age by running barefoot, or in very thin shoes on dirt roads.
Re: Cain's running form [split]
I think we should give the benefit of the doubt to the guy who is coaching the two best track runners on the planet at this very moment.
Re: Cain's running form [split]
i think running fast mechanically properly is what salazar gets out of rupp and farah
cain shows no downside with henwood or salazar with similar techniques
Re: mary cain at indoor nationals in NM
When you have a form element that is not terrible but maybe one we think of as 'not optimal', when you first adjust to the 'optimal' form you are likely to be less efficient, so you have to be a little careful. Both the posters above are careful.
In cycling, a lot of riders push to big of gears. When you try to get them to change they do not perform as well (at first) because they have better muscle motor coordination in the pattern that they have trained in. However, it is often the case that if they train at the 'better' form for a while they will get better at it. The Li/Lagat bit above is an illustration. A similar but also somewhat different story holds for events like the pole vault, where a vaulter's form has to be reconstructed and it takes a while to get this done -- and it does not always succeed.
Re: Cain's running form [split]
I agree it is probably impossible and counter-productive to radically alter an elite runners style once they are in their 20s. However, a little tinkering can go a long way. Even to the untrained eye it had been obvious for years that Mo overstrided when he kicked. Salazar has fixed that and according to Mo continued to remind him of it right up to the moment he took to the track in London. Without that small modification, he wouldn't have held off Gebremeskel.
Re: Cain's running form [split]
Glen Mills?
Re: Cain's running form [split]
Are many of you saying that at age 16 with years and years of running ahead, everything is set in stone? What's the benefit of elite coaching?
Re: Cain's running form [split]
some of what salazar is working on is her race tactics, taking the lead in hs and running away because shes simply superior
now there's better tactics, learning how to race, and kicking at the end with savy runners
sheila reid is teaching cain a lot
sure salaar has fixed her upper body flexibity
but he admits her lower body, and footplant are fine
it' all about 10 years from now
and i think the problem alberto saw in the race is no longer evident
Re: Cain's running form [split]
Good coaches can do wonders for an athlete. But when it comes to form, really not much.
Re: Cain's running form [split]
Sorry, but I totally disagree, especially at her age.
Re: Cain's running form [split]
i agree with you and salazar, the way the arms were crossing her body in barcelona in 2011, is not happening in any of her races this year like in the 2011 4:11 race
Re: Cain's running form [split]
Here are two things I don't understand.
1. If coaches cannot / should not change a runner's "natural" form, does that hold true for sprinters as well?
2. If the argument is "inefficient forms worked for so-and-so (fill in your favorite past runner)" why should we believe they could not have possibly run faster with better forms?
Does any one recommend a middle distance runner today to follow Lydiard's linear periodization? Sure it "worked" for Snell, didn't it? I bet Snell himself would train differently if he were a young athlete today.
Re: Cain's running form [split]

photo of cains arm position
article on 2013 indoor season
Re: Cain's running form [split]
Her cross body arm swing does seem extreme...I assume that photo is during her sprint and not typical of her entire race.
Re: Cain's running form [split]
here;s the millrose mile video with armswing
the 4:11 barcelona video
http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=mar ... FORM=VIRE1
you can see what salazar was talking about
i think he form in millrose, not perfect is better

Just the right fit
I ordered my jeans in a size 14 which is what I normally wear. However, I was able to go down to a size-12 because the fabric had so much give in it. I like a more defined fit. The cut and style of the jeans gave me curvature in the seat part. It made my waist look smaller. Wore with a red sleeveless sweater and cute shrug all thanks to Metrostyle.

(RNN) - In the words of the late Harry Caray, "Hey, everybody. It's Conference Championship Week!"
OK, those sound more like the words of Will Ferrell, who parodied Caray on Saturday Night Live.
If you don't think those skits are hilarious, you're probably younger than 30, definitely not a baseball fan and more than likely enthralled by the current, hipster-friendly version of SNL. That show stinks now, by the way.
Before we get started, let us take a moment to mourn the loss of two very important left knees - those of Aaron Murray and Zach Mettenberger.
How freaky is it that the two best NFL quarterback prospects from the SEC this season went down with the same injury in back-to-back weeks? It's almost freakier than the way Auburn has won its last two games.
The NFL's Unofficial Minor League not only lost some star power in the draft, it could also be a loser in the BCS title race for the first time in eight years.
Missouri vs. Auburn, 4 p.m. ET Saturday
If this year's Iron Bowl was the mother of all football games, the contest this weekend in Atlanta looks like mama's twin sister.
The matchup between the East and West versions of the SEC's top Tigers may not have all the hype of Auburn-Alabama, but don't doubt for one second it could be a great game.
Not only do they share a nickname, they also share similar identities on both sides of the ball. Auburn was good enough to beat Alabama, and Mizzou is built almost exactly like Auburn. So chew on that.
They are most similar on defense where the philosophy is to play soft pass coverage while the front seven wreaks havoc on the poor souls entrusted with handling the rock in the backfield. Mizzou leads the SEC in interceptions and sacks and has created 10 more turnovers this season than Auburn. That is largely because of the handiwork of the only three players from the same team who are in the top 10 in the conference in sacks - league leader Michael Sam (10.5), Markus Golden and Kony Ealy, who each have 6.5.
Give the quarterback advantage to the black and gold Tigers. Nick Marshall throws well enough when he has to, but James Franklin can throw at will and looks nearly flawless doing it. They're both cool customers with a ton of confidence and a nose for big plays, so expect a lot of fireworks.
Mizzou's rushing offense isn't nearly as prolific as Auburn's, but it's the next closest team in the conference. However, Auburn's relentless ground game will look even better since it's highly unlikely Mizzou's secondary will provide the physical play necessary to stop an attack like that.
Put it like this - Alabama's rushing defense is the definition of dominant, and Auburn blasted the Crimson Tide for nearly 300 yards.
And there's your difference. A run-heavy team that won its last two games on a long pass and a failed kick returned for a touchdown will grind this one out in more traditional fashion.
It's tempting to pick Missouri because their big-play ability is so much stronger, even without miraculous, last-second wins. But they do some gambling with the hope that their opponents will make mistakes. It's hard to be effective that way when the team lining up across from you does the safest thing possible - run the ball like there's no tomorrow.
Ohio State vs. Michigan State, 8:17 p.m. Saturday
There are several people who think an undefeated Big Ten team is more deserving of a spot in the BCS title game than a one-loss SEC team.
I am not one of those people. It's as simple as this - how good are the teams you are beating or losing to?
The disparity in the level of play between those two leagues - or any other league compared to the SEC - is great enough that if it were solely up to me, I might even consider an SEC team with two losses. But I'm not a computer, and I'm not a voter.
Here's the thing - we may not have to ask this question after Saturday. There are these guys called the Michigan State Spartans that I'm relatively sure will show up in Indianapolis to play the Buckeyes, and they're pretty good.
I could tell you the Spartans' defense allows the fewest yards in the country, but you may have already heard that. Better yet, I could show you why this defense is so good:
They close space and swarm ball carriers as well as any team you will see. Sparty held Michigan to minus-48 rushing yards. Even if Michigan's running game was pitiful, and is isn't, that would be an incredible feat.
The story of this game is how well Michigan State's D matches up with the second-most productive rushing attack in the country.
Linebacker Max Bullough said in no uncertain terms Sparty's mission is to beat the Buckeyes.
"I want to go to Indianapolis and win the game and go to the Rose Bowl the right way," Bullough said during a news conference Tuesday. "To me, the Big 10 championship, the Rose Bowl is the goal because to get there, usually, you have to win the Big 10 championship. That's what it is to me personally."
When linebackers take things personally, people should pay attention.
Stanford vs. Arizona State, 7:45 p.m. Saturday
Oh, if only the Cardinal had not made those two hiccups earlier in the season, then the BCS would be a nuclear mess. Thanks, Utah and USC!
Hey, Stanford, The Sun Devils actually beat the Utes this year. In yo' face, nerds.
Oh but wait, they lost to Stanford by two touchdowns one week after the referees snatched a game out of Wisconsin's claws in the final seconds. Please disregard that former insult.
This game could have all the excitement of the other major games going on Saturday and more. The key word here is could.
Turns out Stanford may have some cracks in the armor, and Arizona State may be better than advertised.
ASU's Carl Bradford is among the nation's leaders in tackles for loss, and he and Davon Coleman make for a duo that can harass any quarterback.
Stanford's Trent Murphy is a devastating force on offenses, and we already know how brutal the Cardinal's running game can be. Just ask Oregon.
Duke vs. Florida State, 8 p.m. Saturday
Show of hands, who is still trying to figure out how Duke won 10 games this season? I'm sure there is a spattering of Blue Devils fans among the crowd of befuddled observers at their glorious but unlikely season.
Not having to play a team like Clemson certainly helped. Miami and Virginia Tech were on the schedule, but I guess those two forgot they were supposed to be good.
After searching high and low for any possible Duke edge in this game I found one: Geography. Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte is 143 miles from Duke's campus and 481 miles from Florida State's campus. Hey, I tried.
Florida State is good, but do you really know how good? FSU's points per game just from kicks matches or beats total scoring for FIU, Miami-Ohio and UMass.
They lead the ACC in both scoring offense and scoring defense with an average margin of almost 42 points per game. They have scored 21 more touchdowns than Clemson, who you may have heard has a fairly decent offense.
Oh, and there's a Heisman candidate playing quarterback for the Seminoles and what not.
There is no earthly reason Duke should win this game. But if there are two things you can count on 18- to 22-year-olds to do, it's prove you wrong and drive you crazy.
Utah State vs. Fresno State, 10 p.m. Saturday
If you care at all to see the nation's leader in passing yards and a guy with a better shot at a pro career than his big brother, stay up a while to watch Derek Carr.
Like his older sibling David did more than a decade ago, Derek is making a lot of noise out West and drawing people's attention.
There is that one little matter of a loss to San Jose State last game, but eh, stuff happens.
Bowling Green vs. Northern Illinois, 8 p.m. Friday
Nothing to do and interested in checking out a guy that's as deserving as anyone of Heisman consideration?
Press the clicker till it stops on ESPN2, and watch quarterback Jordan Lynch do his dual-threat thang. The Huskies have been one of the most successful teams in the FBS the last few years because of Lynch, who is built like a Hummer but runs like a Honda.
As they say in Illinois, he's worth the price of admission, cuz. Actually, they don't say that. But they should. It would make a nice regional catch phrase.
16.19: You would think the current reigning power conference with a long list of NFL draft picks has a conference championship history full of knockdown, drag out fights. Not so much. The average margin of victory in the 21 prior SEC Championship Games has been more than 16 points, which means a loss in this game is usually as embarrassing as it is devastating. Kind of like the real NFL.

So how do you choose between a drafting chair and an industrial stool? The right choice depends on who is using the stools and for what purpose. Choose from our collection of lab stools, bar stools, drafting stools and art stools to find the ideal selection for your needs.
What kinds of lab stools are there?
Stools come in a variety of styles with many optional features available. Traditional lab and art stools which offer a basic design are the most budget-friendly option. Their metal legs and hardboard seats provide strength and durability. They are built for the rigors of everyday student use and will last for many years. For a bit of extra comfort, you may choose to add optional backrests. Adjustable-height models are available as well. Many classic art stools and lab stools rest on self-adjusting glides, which compensate for uneven floors automatically.
What stool seat material should I get?
Seat materials vary. You can choose between hardboard, polypropylene and hard plastic. Each material has its advantages. Hardboard is the cost-conscious option. Hard plastic is super strong. It resists nicks and dents and is easy to clean. Polypropylene is lightweight, colorful and flexible. It offers a great way to liven up your learning space by adding classroom colors and enables students to lean back without causing damage to the stool.
How can I make my drafting chairs more comfortable?
For a more pleasant seating experience, padded stools are the way to go. Padding varies from the very basic addition of a little extra cushioning to high-density foam for hours of support. To determine whether padding is desirable and necessary, consider how many hours a day the stools are used and whether they are used for extended periods of time or not.
Unlike standard lab stools, drafting stools offer the utmost in support and flexibility. They feature thick padding and adjustable height. Enhanced options even include adjustable tilt angle, armrests and adjustable back height. Many drafting stools offer convenient mobility. Five-star bases with dual-wheel casters provide stability and easy rolling.
Which stool upholstery should I get?
Stool upholstery is available in a selection of materials. The optimal material for a science lab is anti-microbial, anti-bacterial vinyl. This material prevents germ build-up and facilitates easy cleaning. Fabric upholstery is another viable option. Stools with mesh backs provide the utmost in breathability.
What kind of stool is best for an art room?
Our stools are great for art room applications. Art stools enable students to have a clear view of their projects. Swivel stools are excellent for art because they offer clear visibility from a number of angles. Wooden stools create a more classic look and are super strong and highly durable.
Foot rings are a great feature for any type of stool. They reinforce the frame while providing a comfortable place to rest feet. The optimal position for working is with feet resting flat, so a foot ring is ideal for sitting in a healthy position.
Whether you are looking to outfit a science lab, art room or any other work space, Hertz Furniture has many excellent options to fulfill your needs. We feature lab stools from leading manufacturers including National Public Seating, Academia, OFM and Boss. If you are having trouble choosing among the many excellent options, contact our design center today and we will be happy to help you determine the optimal choice.

NYFW Spring 2013: Alexander Wang, Edun, Marlon Gobel, Christian Siriano, Tibi
FirstView View Gallery
(NEW YORK) Alexander Wang
It wasn't just the blacklit rave-y finale that lent a futuristic-trippy aura to Alexander Wang's latest showing. In a stringent palette of B&W, Wang tooled around with myriad shift silhouettes, all laced with undulating peeks of flesh thanks to some expertly pieced-together paneling proffering a very floaty effect. Some sported exaggeratedly rounded athletic shoulders evoking football garb, while others took the study in sharp fragmentation even further, with angular glimpses of skin and a sleeker skim of the body. Coifs and faces got a standard-issue Wang stark treatment, rife with flat strands, harsh center parts, and practically bare visages (all the easier to focus on the clothes, not like that was an issue). Puzzling as those electrical tape-meets-minimalist bindi details on said center parts were, their purpose was illuminated (literally) when the lights dropped completely on a series of Wang's white-clad mods, frocks, hairlines, and strap-happy shoes aglow. Also on display: a few odd, glossy duck bill-esque chapeaus and a duo of textured, superboxy silver toppers, breaking up the fluid consistency of the show's cut-paper snowflake effect on many a look. Wang's play on negative space made a few things clear: a sliver of skin somehow speaks louder than any piping, and most if not all other riffs on cutouts will pale in comparison.
Loose layers, hip-slung trou galore, and oodles of jacket options, primarily focused in the trench and bomber silhouette realms, amounted to a city-tripping nomadic wardrobe at Edun. Army green and cantaloupe took center stage on the color wheel. Adding a smidgeon of sex appeal to the draped, oversized layers providing a foundation for the collection: hardware-trimmed bralettes left and right, plus ankle-anchoring heels and flats, cagelike in design, in black or nude. The patterns didn't quite hit the mark, erring on the side of unremarkable and none too memorable, but those topper options plus the nicely done knits dispersed throughout certainly compensated.
Christian Siriano
By now we've all gotten to the point where we know that Siriano isn't going anywhere, so let's all move on from Project Runway and face the facts that his customers love him. As they should! This season, Siriano took us to the ballet in his best collection to date. "It was whimsy, girly, all of the above," an exhausted Siriano said apres show. "I wanted it to be pretty lady. We've had such an edgy few years and I like the idea of women getting dressed up and getting a little more pretty; that's what my customer was asking for." Culling inspiration from The Dream ballet, performed by ABT, the palette included pastel shades of pink, a helping of seafoam, and some grey. LBD and navy obsessives will have to branch out to don Siriano's latest, but for Spring, that's not such a bad thing! As one major buyer told The Daily before the show, "My customers love him because they like to play dress up, and he knows how to do dress up." Indeed he does.
The crop top, the influx of superfaded denim separates, the peplum, the leather done in a smorgasbord of silhouettes: yep, Tibi is yet again a veritable trend dispensary! Minis abounded, whether in mod, curvaceously-hemmed form or in a wisp of a chartreuse micropleated number (topped with a black leather peplumed shell, comprising perhaps the collection's standout look). There was lots of LBC options on offer, punctuated by breezy long sleeved blouse, stiff collarless cream frocks, and plenty of flouncy skirting throughout. A few boxy T's were also of note, including a dusty rose knit number and an intricately-worked ivory eyelet variation. Making the easy-to-parse-out parade of trendy sweet spot hitting elements even sweeter? The attainable price points, of course.
Marlon Gobel
After stints working for Michael Bastian and Thom Browne, Gobel truly came into his own this season showing his Spring collection at Detail's first sponsored collection gallery, held at Lincoln Center's New York Public Library. He's creating menswear looks that are unlikely to appeal to pop types, but certainly has the power to make an influence on pop culture. His theme this season was "The Stars" and former "star" Paris Hilton sat front row (Did he just make her cool again?) with a runway show dedicated to Neil Armstrong. "I gave you something to see!" Gobel explained after the show. "It was a little cheeky. Let's have some fun. You can get khakis anywhere." As one of the more adventurous designers on the block these days, Gobel continues to be one to watch.

Sun Bum sunscreens are carefully formulated to protect those who live and love in the sun! Featuring 6 lf oz of continuous spray sunscreen.
Please note: this product is flammable and can only be shipped by UPS ground.
"Pleasantly surprised at how fine a mist this puts out when you spray it. It hasn't clumped or dripped on me which is a blessing. Cap twists to lock, preventing me from spraying in my bag - done this many times with other brands. I think Sun Bum might be my new brand of choice for suncare. Thanks"
