Pretty flat
"To start, I must admit that I bought this shoe in store in the clearance section. I believe that my particular pair were used as the demonstration shoe, because the right shoe was completely broken in, while the left was taut. However, I know that in time the left will become as comfy, cozy as the right shoe. Could walk for days in these shoes, and a good price for what you get."

St John Simpson, Curator, Middle East
This weekend sees the official hand-over in the National Museum of Afghanistan in Kabul of a large consignment of antiquities which was recently sent there by the British Museum with the logistic support of the British Armed Forces.
These objects included the 20 ivory and bone furniture inlays excavated at Begram which were stolen from the National Museum of Afghanistan during the civil war (1992–1994). They were generously acquired and donated by a private individual, and conserved at the British Museum with the support of a grant from Bank of America Merrill Lynch through its Art Conservation Project. These decorative inlays were exhibited last year at the conclusion of our exhibition Afghanistan: Crossroads of the Ancient World, also supported by Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
These were not all though. The consignment also included the large carved schist statue of Buddha which was identified in a private collection in Japan, privately bought and donated and again temporarily exhibited at the British Museum last year. Another much smaller private donation was a medieval coin belonging to the twelfth century Ghorid dynasty. The coin had been found on the surface at Bamiyan in 1970 by an English lady who kindly offered it as a donation to the Kabul museum after seeing the exhibition at the British Museum and meeting some of its staff at a Guardian debate hosted here. Last but not least there were as many as 821 additional objects which had been seized by the UK Border Force and the Art and Antiques Unit of the Metropolitan Police, which we had identified as originating in Afghanistan (of which more anon in another post).
The logistics of this return had to be co-ordinated carefully as these were not the only items to travel to Kabul. As part of our exhibition loan agreement, we had undertaken to produce 400 additional copies of our exhibition catalogue, plus another 600 copies specially translated into Dari and Pashto, and we finally received these from the printers in China in April this year. This represents quite a large and heavy stack of parcels!
The timing was finally triggered by a request from Dr Massoudi, Director of the National Museum of Afghanistan, who wished to display the Buddha as part of a larger exhibition celebrating Buddhist art in Afghanistan. Many different parties became involved as it was agreed that the transport would be undertaken by the Ministry of Defence but we had to avoid the Olympic build-up. The details and final stages were kept confidential until after the pieces had been safely collected by Dr Massoudi and his colleagues from the British Armed Forces headquarters at Camp Souter in Kabul on 15 July. We are extremely grateful to all who helped.
A British Armed Forces News video about the return of the objects to Afghanistan
A high profile announcement of their return was made during a joint press conference in Kabul on 19 July by President Hamid Karzai and Prime Minister David Cameron. This was particularly fitting as President Karzai had opened the Afghanistan exhibition at the British Museum on 3 March last year and the Foreign & Commonwealth Office had facilitated the earlier negotiations. Neil MacGregor, the Director of the British Museum, said: "I am delighted that these important artefacts have been safely returned to the National Museum in Kabul. This is the outcome of the ongoing dialogue between our cultural institutions as well as the support of the authorities to identify and preserve items from the national collection of Afghanistan that had been illegally removed during years of conflict".
Unsurprisingly, our colleagues in Kabul are very pleased and the last word goes to Dr Massoudi: "I am very happy to receive this very fine collection of artefacts … for me all the pieces are very important. All of them tell and show our rich culture and history, but I especially like the Bronze Age collection and the axe we have from this period and the Fire Buddha with flames above his shoulders from the Buddhist period".

Tournament of Small Sample Size: The World Juniors
Jonathan Willis
May 23 2009 10:43PM
I recently picked up the new THN Draft Preview. There are things – a lot of things, for the matter - that The Hockey News does that I'm not fond of, but their draft preview is always worth the money and this year's edition was no exception.
I did notice something unsettling though coming from some of the scouts that THN interviewed for the draft: an unhealthy focus on the World Juniors (both the U-20 and U-18 editions). NHL fans tend to put a lot of weight on the performance of players at the World Juniors, and that's understandable because for many of these prospects the only time we get to see them is at the tournament. Scouts though, with the opportunity to watch these players over the course of a season (or more often several seasons) really shouldn't be so limited. Take for instance, what the magazine had to say about Slovakian prospect Richard Panik:
This time last season, Richard Panik was touted as a top-10 pick for this year's draft. Nobody's stock has fallen off more precipitously. Much of the reason for that was a disappointing WJC [World Junior Championship], despite the fact that the Slovaks were the surprise team, getting to the semi-final. Panik finished with five points in seven games, but scouts were expecting more…. "I know the world juniors is not a tournament for younger kids," a scout said, "but if you're such a hot shot, surely to god you can get off the fourth line at some point."
That's one example; other prospects like Ryan O'Reilly, Robin Lehner, Brayden McNabb, and Dmitri Orlov are cited as having had a major shift in their draft ranking based on either good or poor play at the tournament.
It makes for interesting reading to go back in time and see what happened at the tournament; here are a few fun facts that I found, looking back:
- David Chyzowski led all Canadian players at the 1990 tournament with 9 goals and 13 points. He would go on to play just 126 games in the NHL.
- At the 1990 tournament Czechoslovakia had three players in the top five scorers; Robert Reichel led the team, scoring twice as many goals (10 to 5) as the second-best scorer, Jaromir Jagr.
- Patrik Englund of Sweden also finished in the top-five in scoring in 1990, notching nine goals at the tournament. A Philadelphia Flyers draft pick, Englund would only top that goal mark twice in full seasons - both times in the SEL.
- Pauli Jaks of Switzerland was named the 1991 tournament's best goaltender, and selected by the Los Angeles Kings in the Entry Draft that summer. He played two periods of NHL hockey.
- After a great tournament in 1992, Janne Gronvall of Finland was named to the tournament all-star team and would be draft by Toronto in the summer; in parts of three seasons in North America he couldn't rise above the AHL level.
- Peter Ferraro was the best forward on the 1992 American WJC team and would go 24th overall in that summer's entry draft; he scored 9 goals in the NHL and has spent the past two seasons with the ECHL's Las Vegas Wranglers.
- The best defenseman on the 1993 Canadian team was a big blueliner out of the OHL, Brent Tully. He went on to have a fine career in Germany's top league.
- Canada won the Gold Medal in 1994, led by the high-scoring trio of Martin Gendron, Yanick Dube and Rick Girard. The trio combined for a total of 6 points in the NHL.
- Evgeni Ryabchikov was the named the 1994 tournament's best goaltender and was selected by the Boston Bruins with the 21st overall pick that summer; of the 70 games he played in North America, none were in the NHL and 54 of them were spent in the ECHL.
- Ukrainian goaltender Igor Karpenko was named the 1995 tournament's best goaltender; he was drafted by the Los Angeles Kings that summer, who apparently hadn't learned from drafting Pauli Jaks a few years earlier. The bulk of his North American Career took place in the UHL.
- Canada was led in scoring in 1995 by Calgary Flames draft pick Marty Murray, who hit his stride right before the lockout with three consecutive seasons in the NHL.
- Alexander Serikow led the 1995 Russian entry in scoring; he's had a fine career in Germany.
- The 1996 tournament's leading scorer was Jarome Iginla; tied at the top with him was Germany's Florian Keller. This past year was something of a milestone for Keller; it marked the first time he topped 30 points in his 11-year DEL career.
- American Jeff Farkas led the 1998 tournament in scoring with ten points; exactly five times as many as he would ever score in the NHL.
- Forward Maxim Balmochnykh was the best forward on the 1998 Russian team, scoring more than a point per game and finishing on the tournament all-star team; he played 176 games in North America, all but six of them in the AHL.
- Calgary Flames 6th overall pick Daniel Tkaczuk led Canada in scoring with ten points; one fewer than he would record over his NHL career.
- The Czech Republic won WJC gold in 2000, led by the scoring of Milan Kraft and spectacular goaltending from Zdenek Smid. Kraft was a disappointment in the NHL, while Smid (whose performance caught the eye of the Atlanta Thrashers) has had a middling career as a backup in Czechoslovakia.
- Pint-sized Brandon Reid led Canada in scoring in 2000, eventually being drafted by Vancouver that summer; he looked good in 13 NHL games (a very exciting player) but now plays in Europe.
- The Russians won silver in 2000; their three leading scorers were Evgeni Mouratov, Alexander Riazantsev and Oleg Smirnov; none have played in an NHL game to date.
- Edmonton Oilers fans remember the 2001 WJC for Jani Rita, who led the tournament in goals and was subsequently rated as the 13th-best NHL prospect by The Hockey News. He's now back in Finland after being unable to secure an NHL job.
- The only player to put up more points than Rita in 2001 was Pavel Brendl, the 4th overall pick who managed 22 points in just 78 NHL games.
- The 2001 WJC gold medal game featured a pair of dominant netminders; Ari Ahonen of Finland and Tomas Duba of the Czech Republic; neither ever played in the NHL.
- The 2001 tournament features a list of busts as its top scorers; aside from Rita and Brendl, Jon DiSalvatore, Vaclav Nedorost, Andy Hilbert, Jeff Taffe, Zdenek Blatny, Ville Hamalainen, and Jamie Lundmark finished in the top-ten. The only player in that top ten who would go on to make an impact at the NHL level was Rotislav Klesla.
That's just a sampling of the players to excel at the World Juniors but then go on to experience so-so careers. Of course, players go the other way too, but that isn't the point; the point is that there is simply too great an element of chance in such a short tournament to give it much weight in an overall evaluation of a prospect. Every player gets hot over short stretches, and often over a short tournament they look either much better or much worse than they actually are over the entire span. As an example, Tomas Tatar was dominant for Slovakia at this past year's World Juniors, scoring 7 goals and 11 points in only 7 games. THN asked an unnamed scout about Tatar's performance:
"Was it situational success or is that what he does all the time? I think he had a lot of situational success."
Another anonymous scout disagreed, saying that Tatar performed at the same level back in Slovakia; but the point here isn't so much what conclusion each scout comes to but how they came to that conclusion. The first scout (correctly) placed minimal emphasis on the WJC, while the second scout noted Tatar's play in his home league – neither of them drawing their conclusion from a single tournament showing, however impressive.

Also from that THN Draft Preview: Hurricanes GM Jim Rutherford doesn't like drafting defensemen.
Good to see youre back Jon. Too bad day 1 had Bob Stauffer calling you out like he owns the place.
"Occasionally browsing this site, mainly because of my respect for Brownlee, I wonder what the hell do you do? Nothing wrong with relying on stats (some of your stuff is compelling), but do you have actual access to know what happens in a given situation?"
Gee thanks Robert, now that I know compelling arguments and thoughts about sports related matters are the intellectual property of people holding press passes I can go on with my life. Thanks for feeling the need to qualify the statement "occasionally browsing the site" with "mainly because of my respect for Brownlee" as if you felt like you needed a good reason to be in this corner of the internet; like this is Millwoods or something.
Stauffer has always seemed rather full of himself to me.
Good Article Jon, was anticipating your return.
May 24 2009, 08:52AM
Another good example of putting to much faith in a small sample size: Eric Staal's first 10 games shooting % ;)
@ Archaeologuy: And just where is Stauffers access when it comes to the Oilers off season moves? One can only speculate.......but I sure hope if Rod Phillips retires they look past Stauffer to take over.

It's not a problem; this is a game, and I'm a hobbyist. Besides, the more we get guys like Bob Stauffer chiming in here, the better off this site will be.
In any case, bloggers are bound to have their arguments countered with an ad hominem approach; if it bothered me I would have left this site a long time ago.

@ Ogden Brother:
It's all about access, as the legitimate media types remind us. And who has more insider access than Steve Tambellini's round shower stool? No one, that's who.
Just think of the things Tambo's shower stool knows that it can NEVER TELL US just in case it loses the privilege of access.

I agree with your premise that more name guys chiming in brings more "credibility", for lack of a better word. I mean shower items alone wont take this place over the top. Still, if the shoe was on the other foot I wouldnt have been so cordial. Maybe Katz texted him and told him to be an @ss, I dont know, but there are a few members of the media, Mainstream or Otherwise, whose input I respect and I assure you that even as a "hobbyist" yours ranks above Stauffer's in my books. Snobbery just gets my back up.

Enjoy the accolades while they last, JW. Soon enough, the shower stools will be telling you that your stathead arguments are bogus because you couldn't possibly know what brand of exfoliating cream Kevin Prendergast uses. Until you can provide reliable, water-resistant, shower-based seating accommodations, keep your amateurish opinions to yourself.
I think the overwhelming bias towards WJC performance is based on an organizational belief that the player performance in this "pressure cooker" environment will be infinitely revealing going forward. Given your casual observations above (a large sampling) the evidence to support the irrelevance of WJC success is in fact just as compelling. Currently we have 2 undrafted players critically involved in the play in the video and without question that brief moment in time bears weight in their relative values, the oilers are not in the Tavares conversation but certainly are in the Ellis one. I think it may be a decent exercise to watch how ellis compares to the russian kid who iced the puck that led to the existence of that chance or the kid who tried to turtle on the puck that came to Eberle. Given the overwhelming evidence that controversy and adversity builds way more deep rooted character than fleeting successes, the poster children for the 09 canadian juniors may in fact be passed by the victims of luck as defined by the hockey gods. Clearly no organization would draft based on relative failures but a certain appreciation for how a kid responds post adversity is way more revealing than how high he can jump into the glass when a bit of puck luck comes his way. Good piece Jon.... would you consider drafting the high scorers in a junior tournament to be a low risk, easy to sell scouting technique... aka lazy?

Well, as the last two scouts I quoted show, not everyone views the WJC as the be-all and end-all. I think it gets overemphasized because everyone sees it; it's a common point of reference. I say Eberle and the first thing anyone thinks of is the WJC, not his WHL season - which was good but not great.
The problem is that there is value in the "pressure cooker" mentality; I just think that watching a player down the stretch drive or on a lengthy playoff run is a better indicator, since you're getting more than half a dozen games to form an opinion.
Jon - Do I assume that you are taking a shot over the bow of Jordan Eberle based on your choice of Youtube video?
That may be a bit of a premature cheap-shot since the kid hasn't yet progressed very far past junior. There are however some real good examples of popcorn fart hockey prospects in the Oiler system such as....almost everybody on the AHL roster. Couldn't you have picked a better example than Eberle?

I actually like Eberle as a prospect, but I do think Oilers fans overrate him; he was tremendous at the WJC but his regular season really could have been better - Cornet gained on him a lot, as one example.
Other than that, both Ellis and Tavares are involved in the play; both will be selected in the first round at this coming draft.
I could have tossed up a picture of Ryan O'Marra, but that was too obvious.
Reading this blog makes me realize that I need to remodel my bathroom. I'll get on that right after I finish sending my bank account information to this Nigerian princess.

I agree over rating talent has been an Oilers/fans Achilles heel for some years now. When we see the team this last year or two I question the talent from top to bottom. I read a quote a year or so ago attributed to the Senators GM and he said openly the Oilers over value their players. Granted no one trying to trade someone is going to intentionally depreciate someone's value but I don't think anyone in the league has put too many Oiler players on the 'get' list of late who could play on anything above the 3rd line.

I can't remember who it was, but that one alley-oop where the FGCU guy grew a robo-arm to grab the ball and threw it down was just ridiculous.
They clowned on SDSU!

They'll tell you that failure is not an option. That's ridiculous. Failure is always an option. It is the easiest and most readily available option. It's your choice though.
It was a dunk-a-thon the last five minutes or so!
If you know you can do better, then do better.
I don't know how in the hell Kansas managed to lose that game, but they did exactly that.
Epic choke.

Dave, it was the most bizarre thing ever! Dude is in serious trouble I would guess. They showed a stat though where Kansas has never made the final four as a #1 seed like four times in their history or something ridiculous like that so that may be his saving grace.

They've cut the lead a bunch since I posted... but still, this game is more of a struggle then I think it should have been for them!
Hmm, the gas pipe might be getting passed around here....
Dave, college basketball is so unpredictable anymore, but yeah I would have laughed at you of course!

Revenge Deep Runner Spinnerbait Double Willow
Ever had a big one on and it got away? Well, the creator of the original Vyper baits is out to help you get Revenge! These Revenge Deep Runner Spinnerbaits offer you the best components, great fish-catching designs, unique paint and finishes and custom 'tweaks' that make these baits real fish catchers and at a very reasonable price.
One of the first things you'll notice about the Revenge Deep Runner Spinnerbait is the detailed head design and the deep, black, lifelike eyes. Move the bait and you'll notice how the colors change depending on the angle of your view, in other words the bait shimmers like a natural baitfish, and the custom silicon skirts match the paints and shimmer as well and are kept in place by a deep Stay-On skirt keeper. Round bend Mustad Ultra Point hooks will get the fish you hook into the boat and the fine gauge wire used for the arm will allow maximum vibration from the blades, which are stamped from thin metal, deeply cupped for easy rotation even on the fall or when cranked slowly. The Deep Runner features scaled down, high vibration blades and an elongated, balanced head so your bait will stay at the depth you start your retrieve, even in deep water. You'll be finding yourself picking the Revenge blade when you tie on a spinnerbait, time after time.

Comments: I put an 8, two 6s and a 5 on one bait in the same day. Wind was gnarly & cover was heavy. Wish I had more that day, but the one I had held up just fine. I'm here to scoop up more, even at 9 bones a pop. Ouch.
From: Jay6: USA 2/14/16
Comments: Simply an awesome spinnerbait!! This bait catches fish as well as it looks! If only Revenge would make the wire more durable and/or indestructable it would be the greatest spinnerbait ever made. But still a great bait, buy and enjoy catching fish!
From: Parputt: Canton, GA 5/21/14
Comments: BOMMMMBS AWAAAAAAAY! This is what you will yell when you fling this booger into the wind. Use a reel with a large capacity or your blade will keep on truckin. If you spool yourself on a cast, just go home and find a new hobby. Slow rolls EASILY, and gets eaten by the creatures of the deep...th ekind of fish you wanna post on your facebook page, dawg.
From: Meatwad: back to the wind
Comments: I slow rolled these bad boys south of the border and im here to tell ya they work! Caught more big bass over 8 lbs on a submerged rocky humps then you could shake a flippin stick at!
From: Brandon: Columbia Falls, MT
Comments: I wasn't sure this bait's blades would rotate well or provide enough lift and vibration, but I was very surprized and pleased. It's very compact for a 1/2 oz. bait and casts like a rocket. You can burn or slow roll it. I see this being a smallie magnet. Great service guys !!
From: Doug: WA
Comments: I've used many spinnerbaits without catching one fish. I tied one of these puppies on today and caught a 3.5 pound bass. Quality lure.
From: Pat: San Jose
Comments: Best spinnerbait ever made. You can go through 25-30 fish before u need a new one.
From: Gator: Phx: AZ
Comments:Excellent Spinnerbaits. Hook is not too great for mid-european application. Fine skirt and the lead-body has a very natural look.
From:Petr: Czech Republic
Comments:Not happy with new design keeps on braking at the head...
From:Travis: Sacramento, CA
Comments:I believe these spinnerbaits are the best on the market! You won't find a more realistic, natural looking spinnerbait. Keep a Revenge Deep Runner DBL Willow tied on and get ready to catch fish.
From:Benny: Canton, GA
Comments:Terrific spinnerbaits, especially slow rolled in 12 to 25 feet of water. Where the big boy's live, and their very picky on what they east, no problem here. These baits are special, and very durable, and quality components.
From:Craig: Portland, OR

By GARY ARRINGTONSports Writer
The 2013-14 basketball season began last week for the two Emery High teams with the boys' team opening at home against Enterprise and playing well enough to grab the victory 71-67. The girls' team played at the Sevier Valley Center in Richfield as a Hall of Fame game and lost to a good Piute team by the score of 63-58.
Both teams have enough returning players to have good seasons, the girls are ranked first in 2-A and the boys were ranked second, and both coaches believe that this season could be special for their teams.
For the boys, after falling behind 4-2 Enterprise jumped to a 16-5 lead and the Emery fans were fidgeting just a little. But the explosiveness of this team was quickly evident when they scored in rapid succession in the final two minutes of the first quarter to find the two teams tied after the first quarter 18-18. Senior Gavin McDermott scored eight points in the period and McKlane Allred hit a three-pointer just as time expired as the two kept the Spartans in the game. The team had trouble with the outside shot in the period.
Emery won the second quarter 15-8 to lead at the half 33-26. The Emery fans were thinking that they had finally settled down and had taken control of the game. Junior Dillon Wilstead scored eight points in the period to pace the Emery team. Sophomore Beau Roundy entered the game in the period and the 6'8" player changed the type of shot the Enterprise could hit as he blocked a pair of shots early on.
Emery played evenly with the Wolves in the third quarter as the score at the end of the period was 49-43 Emery. Senior Bailey Faimalo scored nine points in the period to lead the team.
The fourth quarter started with a bang for Enterprise as they tied the score at 51-51 before Faimalo and Allred hit three's on successive trips down the floor to put Emery back up 57-51. Emery then maintained that advantage to win the game.
Faimalo scored 20 points, pulled down 8 rebounds grabbed 7 steals and dished out 13 assists to lead the team to victory. Wilstead scored 17 points, McDermott scored 14 points and Allred scored 10 points as four Spartans finished in double figures. McDermott led the team with 12 rebounds. Also scoring were Drexler Tanner with 4 points and Roundy with 4 points along with Tyson Roper with 2 points. Roundy had 9 rebounds before he fouled out of the contest.
The Lady Spartans traveled to Richfield to play Piute, a team that returned most players from a successful season last year. Emery was outscored 14-9 in the first period, 18-11 in the second quarter and 16-11 in the third quarter. The Emery team is looking to build on last season's second place finish in state with this season's team.
The team found their stride in the final period as they outscored Piute 27-15. Ashlynn Allred led the team with 17 points and hit three three-pointers. Hannah Dyer was the single threat early for the team as she was the only other Spartan to finish the game in double figures. Dyer had 11 points and also hit three threes.
Emily Olsen scored 8 points, Bailey Rasmussen scored 7 points, Lexie Huntington and Camry Johnson each scored 4 points, and Kelsie Cox scored 3 points with Paytn Jeffs and Cassidy Labrum each scoring 2 points.
The Emery boys play three games this week, Beaver at home on Wednesday night and Parowan and Enterprise at the Sevier Valley Center in Richfield this Friday and Saturday. Game time Friday is 10 am and Saturday is 9 am as the team is one of 16 teams playing the two days in Richfield.
The girls play this Tuesday at Uintah High in Vernal and this Thursday at Richfield High. Varsity game time each night is approximately 7 p.m., depending on the previous two games that day.

great riding shorts
By dabbindan
from Topeka, Kansas
About Me Avid Cyclist
Comments about Nashbar Stealth 2 Baggy Shorts:
Have worn these shorts for over a year and just bought two more pairs. Comfortable, durable, no nonsense, good value. No failing of seams so far. Liner can be snipped out if desired but they work well and don't get all cattywampus like some liners do when you try to put them on. I like the pockets, located on side/backs of legs so carrying something doesn't interfere or irritate your legs. No belt, velcro adjustment at both sides:simple, functional.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

By Yoshii
from Annapolis, MD
About Me Casual/ Recreational
I read all the previous reviews before I bought these shorts. I have to agree with all those that felt the material in the shorts is too stiff and uncomfortable. That being said, I really, really like the chamois. About the same size as a boxer short, snug but not compressive (like all-in-one bike shorts). I cut out the chamois and wear them under my regular baggie shorts, very comfortable. I donated the outer shorts to a worthy charity.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Great Fitting Short's
By Mr-EPIC-3
from Trabuco Canyon, CA
Great fit and good looking shorts that are priced right. Most MTB shorts are pretty pricy.
Would wear even when not biking!

Liner shorts are not removable, otherwise their great.
By Rolf B
from Northern New York
Shorts are very comfortable. My only complaint is that the liner shorts are not removable for washing. The get tangled when washed. If the short had a snap in two of the loops that attach the liner to the shorts could be seperated.
Worth the money
By Bob
from Canton, GA
Bought a pair of Zoic shorts at the same time as well. Much nicer material on the Zoic but more expensive.
Noisy shorts
By The Sargent
from Tampa , FL
The size was perfect and they feel good but I wish they weren't so "noisy". I ride 3-4 days a week with a bike club and have picked up the nickname of "noisy pants" since I started to use these shorts. The material rubs against your upper legs. Also wish that the liner was not attached to the outer shell. I will probably cut the two attachments.
Love 'em
By A-Train
from Midland, TX
Super-durable and super-comfy.

Casual Riding Shorts
By Rick
from Richmond VA
I use it when I ride my bike to town and just go on a recreational ride. The only thing about them they feel plastic or a polyster feel and they make a swishing sound while pedalling. They would be great a bathing suit take the inner pad out

Toward Sustainable Change: The Legacy of William Morris, George Bernard Shaw, and H. G. Wells in the Ecological Discourse of Contemporary Science FictionSpicer, Arwen (University of Oregon, June , 2005)[more][less]Spicer, Arwen 2008-02-10T02:18:34Z 2008-02-10T02:18:34Z 2005-06 PR5084 .S65 2005 http://hdl.handle.net/1794/3932 xiii, 272 p. A print copy of this thesis is available through the UO Libraries under the call number: KNIGHT PR5084 .S65 2005 This study examines implications of utopian and dystopian fiction for contemporary ecological praxis, emphasizing the respective differences in ecological discourse arising out of (Neo-)Darwinian and Neo-Lamarckian evolutionary theories and non-evolutionary discourses. Grounded in late-nineteenth- and early twentieth-century British texts, this study traces the continuities and reformulations of progressionist and non-progressionist discourses from William Morris's News from Nowhere, George Bernard Shaw's Back to Methuselah, and H. G. Wells's The Time Machine and Men Like Gods to more recent texts, specifically, Octavia E. Butler's Earthseed books, Ursula K. Le Guin's The Dispossessed, and the television space operas, Babylon 5 and Lexx. Using Mikhail Bakhtin's dialogic theory and Bruno Latour's concepts of purification and hybridization of discourse, this study concludes that the texts most conducive to a sound ecological praxis are strongly dialogic, hybrid narratives, such as The Dispossessed, that enable complex, open-ended conversation among various discursive dyads, including progressionism and non-progressionism, utopia and dystopia, anthropocentrism and ecocentrism. Such a dialogic structure lends itself to ideologies that productively recognize the need for socio-ecological sustainability while accepting, and sometimes promoting, socio-ecological change.

Adorable and comfy work shoe!
"These are just as cute in person as online, and look like they'll go with so many things. Sadly I'm returning them because the 8.5 W is too big and the 8 W is out of stock. :( Seemed a bit less grippy on tiled floors than I would've guessed, but not too bad. If my size becomes available I'd absolutely order again!"

Brendon Walsh discusses everything from the postcoital thoughts of Fleshlight owners to the joys of wearing a fake mustache.
Hey, Beantown.
(cheering)What's up?
What's up, Beaners?
So I'll go out afterwards,
we'll drink Sam Adams.
Talking about Larry Bird.
Snitch on some redcoats.
I want to go outand drink beer afterwards.
I switched-- I love drinking,you know.
Just like everybody.
I switched to, uh...
I switched to red winea couple weeks ago.
It's like, like, you know,it's like a mature drink.
Switched to red wine.
Had a couple bottlesof red wine.
It's like eight glasses.
It's not that much.
I didn't knowit was gonna give me
crazy, explosive diarrheaall night long.
I didn't knowit was gonna do that.
Like wicked explosive diarrhea.
Didn't stop till, like, 6:00or 7:00 in the morning or...
I don't know, I mean, I sleptright through it, thank God.
Didn't wake me up.
So I was well rested.
For a major cleanup jobthe next morning.
Green diarrhea.
If you drink red wine,you poop green.
I live, uh, I livein Los Angeles.
Hold your applause.
You do a lot of shows--
like they do showsin weird places.
I did a show at a, uh, like,at a dirty bookstore, you know.
Yeah, my career's going great.
Dirty bookstore.
What am I (bleep)?
Yeah, have you guys read all thenew porno books that are out?
The dirty literature?
Sitting under a treein a park with...
Reading something about...
(muttering):I don't know.
Now, at a place...it's like a porno place,
you know, where you can buy--basically like a vibrator store.
The whole front of the placeis just vibrators.
There's like 5,000 differentkinds of vibrators.
You ladies got it made.
Because it's not even weirdor taboo or anything.
Like every girl's gota vibrator.
And you don't have to be ashamedabout it.
You just, like, you leave itlaying out on your coffee table.
When you have company over,nobody will bat an eyelash.
And they go, "That's whythere are no batteries
"in the remote control.
It's Sheila's vibrator."
Like, at a bachelorette party.
Like, "Susan, I bought youthe new Rabbit Excel 2000E
"with Electro Fade
"that (bleep) pops and locksall up in your gut.
"Give it a shot.
"Just get upfrom the dinner table,
"go in the bathroomand try it out.
Why don't you give that a shot?"
Guys don't have that.
I mean, th-there's...there's stuff for guys.
But it's not, like, acceptableto have, like...
I mean, in the dildo placeI was at,
there's, you know,it's all vibrators in the front.
Brightly lit, very nice place.
Millions of varietiesof vibrators.
And then you go in the back,
near, like, the dirty moviesand stuff.
And there were a few thingsfor guys.
And one of them is just like--
It's just like a rubber ass.
It's like a rubber ass-vaginacombination thing.
It's like...
It's like they chop the ladyin half
and then saw both her legs off
and then you justhave that part.
It's a ass (bleep) combination.
You can't have that.
Like, what,are you going to own that?
You gonna keep thatin your apartment?
A rubber ass-vagina combination?
Think you're coolwith having that laying around
at your place?
Like, what if you...
What if you go out to, like,
get a pack of smokesor something?
And you get run over by a carand you die?
Your family and friends
are gonna have to gothrough your stuff.
They're gonna find your rubberass-vagina combination.
Like that's the wayyou're gonna go out.
That's how you're gonnabe remembered
no matter what you didyour whole life before that.
They'll be like, "Yeah, yeah,
"I know, you did a lotof great stuff,
but did you hearwhat they found at his place?"
You could be Stephen Hawking.
And they'll be like,
"Yeah, I know, he did a bunchof genius stuff,
but did you hear about...the rubber ass-vagina?"
(à la Stephen Hawking):Where is my rubber-ass vaginasituation?
I need to bang that.
And another thingin there, like
the less obscene thing
for guys to jam their wangsinto for fun.
And the thing called, uh...
It's called the Fleshlight.
(audience whoops)
Are you familiarwith the Fleshlight?
(scattered applause, whoops)Yep. Well, for all of you
making believe that you're notfamiliar with the Fleshlight,
let me explain it to you.
It's a rubber vagina,
cleverly disguised
as a big weird flashlight,for some reason.
I don't know why they made itlook like a flashlight.
Like, maybe to make a disastermore stressful for you.
Like, if the power goes out,and there's an earthquake.
Hanging out with your buddy.
He's like,"Dude, I found a flashlight."
You're like,"No, no, no, no, no, no!
"No, no, not the...not, no, no, not that one.
"Not that one.
That's... no, no, no, no."
"Ugh, the batteries areleaking or something.
Uh, you need to change thebatteries in this thing."
"No! D-d-d-d-d-d!"
"That's... no, no, no.
Not that one."
And I...
It's a popular item.
I have friends who own them.
I haven't banged one yet.
Maybe... maybe someday
I'll bang one.
I'm sure it's awesome.
It's a leap thatyou have to take.
Like, once you bang
a rubber vagina flashlight,
that's it, you did it.
That's like...
You can't undo it.
You're always a guywho's banged a flashlight
for the rest of your life.
And I feel dumb enough
like, when I rub one outlike a regular person,
I feel so stupid.
I'm like, "Duh."
"What the hell are you doing?
"Somebody leaves youalone in a room
"for more than ten minutes,
"you start playing with yourself
"like a teenaged chimp?
"Grow up.
"Maybe read a book to kill sometime for once in your life.
"When's the last timeyou read a book?
Imagine how dumb you feel
after you get done banging yourrubber vagina flashlight,
and you're just standing thereat the kitchen sink,
like, rinsing it out
under warm water...
"I didn't think I was gonna bethis guy when I grew up."
"Knew how thiswas gonna play out.
"Banged a rubber vaginaflashlight.
Gotta get my (bleep) together."
Speaking of filthy thingsto stick your dick into...
I was in San Franciscoa few months ago.

And we're like,"I don't care. Wherever."
He's like, "Well, there'sassigned seating

It was some specialtheater or whatever.
He's like, "You haveto choose seats."
So he turns the computerscreen around
to show us the seating chart,
and I notice there areonly two other tickets
purchased forthe movie that day.
There are just two seatsright next to each other
in the middle of the theater.
So I said to the guy,I was like,
"We'll have the, those two seats
on either sideof those two people there."
And he giggles.He gets it. (chuckles)
Gives us our tickets.
And we go into the theater,
and we sit inour assigned seats.
Those people aren't there yet.
There's, like, two empty seatsin between us.
And we're beside ourselveswith how funny we think we are.
We're, like, (chortling)
"Keep it together, man!"
After about, like, you know,ten, 15 minutes,
this couple comes walking in,it's, like, a guy and a girl.
And the guy's, like,looking at his ticket.
He, like, looks at us.
Looks back to his ticket.
Sees the row.

And he turns to his girlfriend,and he goes,
"See? I (bleep) told you."
What the (bleep)did he tell her?
It's not... (chuckles)
It's not an I-told-you-sosituation at all.
Sucks getting older.
And all my friends are, like,
married to all these womenwho hate me.
Most of my friends' wiveshate me.
They're just, like,"No. What are you gonna go,
hang out with your stupidfriend Brendon?"
But I hang out with my friendsand their wives a lot.
And, like, if you're everhanging out with, like,
three or more drunk ladies,
you're gonna wind upat a karaoke bar eventually.
There's no way around it.
Drunk girls lovesinging karaoke.
But I got news for you,drunk ladies,
nobody wantsto hear that (bleep).
I never thought to myself,
"Man, I really loveall the songs of Journey,

This is the international signfor girls' night:
It's, like, you press your armup against your head,

Equal rights! Whoo!
My friend Kevin-- different guy --
(chuckles) his wife hates me.
But, like, in her defense,
we... mess with herall the time.
Like, Kevin invented this gamecalled "Cell Phone Capers"
where he'll be with his wife,
and he'll leave his cell phoneon secretly on speakerphone
and I'll be listening inall muted
while he just says weird(bleep) to his wife
to get her to, like, yell at himand piss her off
for my amusement.
And I listen in and laugh.
(goofy laugh)
Like, for example, he's atthe doctor's office one time.
He's waiting for his wifeto pick him up.
And he's, like, "Well, let's doa Cell Phone Caper."
So he leaves his phone on.
And I listen in all muted.
And you know, his wife shows up.He gets in the car.
His wife's, like,"How was your doctor's visit?"
He's, like, "Oh, it was fine,but I got some bad news.
"The doctor saysmy dick's too big...
"and I have to goto a whale dick doctor
"to get my dick examined.
"So I think we've gotto rent out a tank
"at Sea World or something,
"get a bunch of whale dickdoctors to put on scuba gear
"and stethoscopes and swimaround my whale-sized dick
and make sure everything'scool with that."
She's, like, "What the (bleep)are you talking about?!
You wish, idiot!"
I'm, like... (goofy laugh)
listening in like an adult.
(goofy laugh)
He was, like, "No, but I gotsome good news, honey.
"The doctor said I produceenough semen
"to where you could live on
"only eating my spermfrom now on.
"So we'll put you onan all-splooge diet.
"We'll save a lot of moneyon groceries.
You'll drop some weight.It'll be a win-win."
She's, like, "Who the helldo you think you're talking to?!
You're disgusting!"
(goofy laugh)
Listening to a marriage crumblefor my own amusement.
So she caught on
to our Cell Phone Caperspretty quickly.
Like, any time Kevin wouldbe talking about whale dicks,
all-splooge diets,she knew what was going on.
She'd be, like...
"Where's your phone?"

the theroy is not true and this is my prove:
itachi joined akatsuki b4 he killed his clan because i at the end of episode 135, one of the akatsuki states how itz been 7 seven years since they met, at that time, itachi would be 11 or 10 years old?
and in that 'theory' it says that he heard about the MS from his father and THEN joined akatsuki
if itachi needed a third MS user(sasuke), then y would he invite sasuke for a final encounter (and sasuke doesnt even have the MS)?
and itz strange that tobi/uchiha madara joined akatsuki so late, i mean, akatsuki isnt exacaly the newest organization
and the theory is also saying that shodaime and madara fought because madara sought power? thats kinda unreasonable...all shinobi sought power
and is the kyuubi the type to sit down with someone to have a talk and kindly lend power to someone weaker than them because they asked? i dont think so

BLM Issues Oil and Gas Best Practices for Wildlife Protection
Under the Obama Administration's all-of-the-above energy strategy, domestic oil and gas production has grown each year the President has been in office, with domestic oil production currently higher than any time in nearly a decade and natural gas production at its highest level ever. Foreign oil imports now account for less than 50 percent of the oil consumed in America – the lowest level since 1995.
Active cooperation between industry leaders and the BLM has contributed in recent years to significant decreases in the number of wildlife deaths associated with oil and gas operations. The new Best Management Practices (BMP) build on this cooperation in establishing a consistent policy approach and set of practices for guiding future fluid mineral activities.
"Identifying these mitigation strategies is critical to effectively carrying out the BLM's multi-use mission," said Acting BLM Director Mike Pool. "Responsive wildlife protection policies demonstrate our Bureau's fundamental commitment to promoting responsible energy development on public lands while safeguarding wildlife, livestock, and public health."
Best practices established in the policy focus on the following five industry situations:
All BLM field offices will ensure new fluid mineral permit approvals contain appropriate BMPs necessary for complying with existing Federal energy, wildlife, and environmental laws and regulations. The BLM has an established policy requiring the use of state-of-the-art environmental mitigation measures in all permits it approves. Through its Onshore Oil and Gas Order Number 1, the BLM also encourages the industry to proactively include these best practices in their permit applications prior to a review by the BLM.
The BMPs identified in the new policy take into consideration unique wildlife needs and the potential hazards of extractive industry operations. Specific mitigation strategies include using closed loop systems or nets for managing fluids, constructing wildlife escape ramps in open excavation operations, and installing screens on all open exhaust stacks to prevent bird and bat entry or nesting.
Strategies are also included that reduce threats to important bird species like the Greater-Sage Grouse and Lesser Prairie-Chicken. For these species, demonstrably effective mitigation measures will utilize fence markings around production facility exclosures to prevent wire collisions near mating areas. Increased industry adoption of these best practices at field sites across BLM lands promises to yield healthier environments.
BMPs for the fluid minerals industry are critical components in the BLM's larger effort to reduce the preventable causes of wildlife mortality across the country while also protecting human health and safety. Many of the BMPs also improve safeguards against groundwater contamination and emissions that may affect water and air quality for humans and wildlife alike. When identifying appropriate permit conditions for new projects, BLM field offices will incorporate the new BMPs through the existing National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) environmental review process.
The new BMP policy follows a well-established BLM tradition of proactively protecting wildlife as part of the Bureau's multi-use mission facilitating both conservation and energy development. The implemented measures will help the agency and its oil and gas permittees remain in compliance with BLM regulations and Onshore Orders, the Fish and Wildlife Service's enforcement of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918, as well as with all other Federal regulations dedicated to protecting wildlife on Federal lands.
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land, the most of any Federal agency. This land, known as the National System of Public Lands, is primarily located in 12 Western states, including Alaska. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. The BLM's mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of Americas public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. In Fiscal Year 2015, the BLM generated $4.1 billion in receipts from activities occurring on public lands.

This study — perhaps the most well-known of all HighScope research efforts — examines the lives of 123 children born in poverty and at high risk of failing in school.
From 1962–1967, at ages 3 and 4, the subjects were randomly divided into a program group that received a high-quality preschool program based on HighScope's participatory learning approach and a comparison group who received no preschool program. In the study's most recent phase, 97% of the study participants still living were interviewed at age 40. Additional data were gathered from the subjects' school, social services, and arrest records.
The study found that adults at age 40 who had the preschool program had higher earnings, were more likely to hold a job, had committed fewer crimes, and were more likely to have graduated from high school than adults who did not have preschool. See Figures 1 and 2 for more information.

Did You Know? Countdown to Columbus Day (10/08)
Did You Know?
Facts, Figures & Folklore
About Christopher Columbus'
Discovery of the Americas
Oct 08 : 02 days to Columbus Day
Did you know that the Vikings explored the North American coast five centuries before Columbus' journey?
Ultimately, however, it was Columbus' expedition that established the permanent intertwining of Europe with the New World, which resulted in the colonization of the Americas.
In 1492 Christopher Columbus left Spain looking to find an alternative route to India. After sighting land, his fleet eventually landed on what is now know as the Bahamas. Columbus Day is a celebration of Columbus' discovery of the Americas (the New World). Observed as a national holiday in the US and by Italian-Americans as a celebration of their culture and heritage.
Join us as we present a new "Did You Know?" fact each day as we countdown to Columbus Day which is celebrated on Monday October 10th, 2011.

Ex-Ranger Josh Hamilton on cause of on-field struggles: 'I quit chewing tobacco, plain and simple'
Josh Hamilton got off to a blistering start last year, belting 21 homers in the season's first two months. But as soon as the calendar flipped to June, Hamilton's hot start hit a wall, kicking off a painful two-month slump that saw Hamilton post a sub-.700 OPS and strikeout out 56 times vs. just 35 hits.
When asked about the cause of his on-field problems during a recent appearance on Dan Patrick's radio show, Hamilton blamed his slump on his decision to quit chewing tobacco during the season.
"I quit chewing tobacco, plain and simple," Hamilton said, according to SportsRadioInterviews.com. "To think it doesn't have an effect on your physical, mental... I've been chewing for almost 11 or 12 years, but I knew I needed to do it during the season because if I could do it during the season around guys doing it all the time I knew I would be okay."
Hamilton said that he went through physical withdrawals "for about a week," but that the effect that quitting had on his game was more mental after playing his entire career with the habit.
Hamilton also told Patrick that the boos he heard from Ranger fans at the end of the season didn't play any part in his decision to leave Texas.
"[Fans] get used to a player playing one way and I started off the season really hot and maybe their expectations got a little unrealistic," Hamilton said.
"When you think about baseball cities or baseball towns, you don't think of Ranger fans booing their players. If it's the Yankees, Boston, the Cubs or the towns that eat, sleep or breathe baseball it's a little different story and you can understand it. But it was a little bit of a shock. It really didn't bug me."

Relying on God's Grace
from R.C. Sproul Oct 29, 2009 Category: ArticlesThe irony of the theology of meritorious suffering is that it tends to produce the very opposite effect from its original intention. What began as a call to humble willingness to suffer became an insidious tool for self-righteousness. Perhaps the most difficult task for us to perform is to rely on God's grace and God's grace alone for our salvation. Keep Reading

Playing Your Part
from Gene Edward Veith Oct 28, 2009 Category: ArticlesAs seen in other articles this month, the word hypocrisy derives from the Greek term for "playing a part." The ordinary word for an actor on the stage in Greek drama was hypocrite. In the tragedies of Sophocles or the comedies of Aristophanes, the actors -- the hypocrites -- played their different parts by wearing masks. The moral transgression of hypocrisy also involves playing a part and wearing a mask. But there are also times when God calls us to play a part. Keep Reading

The Coming Kingdom
from R.C. Sproul Jr. Oct 27, 2009 Category: ArticlesThe world is full of hypocrites, and the solution to this problem is twofold: If you are more modern, you deal with the gap between your obedience and what you pretend to be by trying harder to be good. You try to make your sin go away. If you are postmodern, you deal with the problem not by trying to do better, by getting rid of your sin, but by getting rid of the idea of sin. If there is no right and wrong, no one can rightly accuse you of acting like you are right when you are actually wrong. Keep Reading

Rural Development Continues its Long History of Support for Alaska by Funding a Recovery Act Water Project
Talkeetna is unincorporated, but hundreds of Alaskans call it home and live there year-round. It has all the amenities you would expect in a small town, including a school, library, post office and a clinic. It also has community water and sewer service.
USDA Rural Development has long been a partner in Talkeetna's development. We helped to fund the clinic, and the new home for KTNA public radio. We have also funded a system that uses water-based plant life to clean waste water before it enters the Susitna River.
One significant remaining issue for the community is the quality of Talkeetna's drinking water. Much of the water used in Talkeetna comes from twin 160 foot community wells. The system, built over 20 years ago has received water quality violation notices from the State of Alaska.
Earlier this month, it was announced that, using funds provided by Congress through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, USDA Rural Development would provide the community with a $714,500 grant and a $48,000 loan to purchase a water treatment module. The new module, when installed, will remove impurities from the water supply and improve the overall quality of the water being supplied to area homes and businesses. It will leverage an additional $500,000 in investment.
On behalf of President Obama, Secretary Vilsack and USDA, I am proud that Rural Development is able to help fund this project with Recovery Act dollars provided through Congress. The new module will ensure that visitors to Talkeetna, and the Alaskans who live there, will have quality, safe drinking water.

Often developing from a cold or other respiratory infection, acute bronchitis is very common. Chronic bronchitis, a more serious condition, is a constant irritation or inflammation of the lining of the bronchial tubes, often due to smoking.
Acute bronchitis usually improves within a few days without lasting effects, although you may continue to cough for weeks. However, if you have repeated bouts of bronchitis, you may have chronic bronchitis, which requires medical attention. Chronic bronchitis is one of the conditions included in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
