RAP4 is proud to announce a bold new all-terrain pattern designed by a military veteran for combat operators and players who need to keep it as real as it gets. The All Terrain PatternATPATwas developed by veteran Patrick Pongracz as a hybrid style combining the most effective elements, colors, and styles, of the militarys leading camouflage patterns into one RAP4-exclusive pattern. ATPAT is combat-ready for an unprecedented variety of environments, and uses cutting-edge science to make you practically invisible.
ATPAT is based on a digital hexagon, rather than digital squares, which creates a pattern completely free of straight lines formed by adjoining cells. This is crucial, because the human eye is extremely adept at picking out shapes, and it does so by identifying lines and contours.
Your brain associates lines and contours with known shapes, and is very good at using tiny clueslike the straight edge of a barrel, the edge of a leg, or even the straight line where your BDU top overhangs your BDU pantsto identify elements of interest and then discern larger objects from their environment.There is an entire branch of perceptual psychology that the militaryand RAP4uses to understand how we detect hidden things
and to use that knowledge to keep our personnel from being detected!
Years of development have improved upon the original camouflage patterns, most recently with Digicam and its derivatives
and now, with ATPAT. The tiny hexagons deny observers any chance to pick up a straight line from the pattern. Overlapping pieces of ATPAT gearlike a pack over an ATPAT BDU top or a mag pouch on an ATPAT vestseem to seamlessly blend into each other when observed from more than a few feet away.
Thus, ATPAT combines a revolutionary design with scientifically chosen and field test proven colors. It took Pongracz and RAP4 more than two years to perfect that blend
and now its ready, and available exclusively from RAP4.
You can select ATPAT as your go-to pattern for use in the deep woods, and expect it to work extremely well even as you charge onto urban fields. Blend into southwestern landscapes, disappear in the weeds, and haunt the darkest corners of your opponents minds, with the confidence that ATPAT will keep you safe from prying eyes.
Even in plain sight.
ATPAT is now available as a pattern on clothing and select tactical accessories, and is quickly spreading throughout our product line. If you dont see ATPAT as an option on the gear you want, just call us and askwe can probably make it happen for you now, or very, very soon.
Get in on the leading edge of concealment technology
and be the best-dressed combatant your opponents will never see.
RAP4As Real as it Gets!

Distin wants Premier League stay
Everton defender Sylvain Distin hated his recent spell out of the team but it has helped convince him he wants to extend his career in the Barclays Premier League.

Sylvain Distin

The 35-year-old centre-back is out of contract this summer and although manager David Moyes has intimated he wants to offer the Frenchman a new deal negotiations are not likely to begin until the new year.
Distin is keen to continue as a Premier League player but also wants to play as many games as possible, having started the first four league matches before dropping in and out of the team until regaining his place in the last three fixtures.
"Being on the bench, I didn't like it and I think it's my longest spell on the bench since I started football," he said.
"I did hate it but I did try to take the positives out of it and it made me realise that I'm not ready to stop at all.
"I'm not ready to be on the bench at all and that's a good thing.
"I'm working hard every day not to be on the bench, but we have four great centre-backs.
"We have an England international (Phil Jagielka), a Dutch international who played in the final of the World Cup (John Heitinga) and then you have me and (Shane) Duffy.
"It's tough competition but it is healthy competition. We enjoy playing with each other and there is no tension between us.
"This can only make us better and we know that we have to perform week in and week out, otherwise there will be another two players who will be picked.
"The reason I am in England is to play against the best strikers and I would rather have those kind of challenges every week rather than play in a league where I don't enjoy my football.
"I know it is difficult but that is what makes football magic for me."
The weekend draw at champions Manchester City was Everton's seventh in nine matches and having started so well, riding high in second at the end of September, they have now slipped to sixth.
However, Distin insisted there had to be a sense of perspective as at the same stage last season they were 14th position after eight defeats.
"I know a lot of people will moan at us for not winning games but they have to remember where we were at this time last season," he told evertontv.
"We haven't conceded many goals, we are scoring more and we are sitting in a comfortable position.
"People are disappointed because we are out of the top four but look at the teams around us and see how much they spend each season and look how much we spend and every season we lose a big player.
"I think we can be proud. People have to be realistic.
"People might think I'm being pessimistic but I'm not - I want to win every single game and I want to play in the Champions League, who doesn't?
"But we have to be realistic and at the moment we are doing really well."

I want to replace the faucet washers and seats in a 35 year old stall shower. I can't get the seats off (i think they're original). The inside of the seats seems to have rounded out and the wrench will not grab. I also noticed metal shavings on the wrench so I stopped. I then used a seat tool to try and smooth out the seat, but could not get it very smooth, plus I was afraid of removing to much of whats left of the seat. I put everything back together so I could turn the water in my house back on, but now it drips worse than before. If I use an easy-out, how much danger is there in cracking the part the seat screws into? Thanks for any advice you can give.

Bill Belichick press conferences have quickly become my favorite thing about football in New England. His gruff, non-answer Q & A sessions with the media are �comically absurd. "It is what it is" covers everything from next week's opponent to Tim Tebow to defensive coverages to Aaron Hernandez. In other words, Belichick (a Hingham resident I might add) has perfected the art of saying nothing by saying something. Not that clergy could every be accused of that…
Anyway, it made me wonder what would happen if clergy took a Belichickian approach to coffee hour. Here's what I came up with using (more or less) actual Bill Belichick press conference answers:
Q: What happened with the acolytes at the gospel procession? Are you actively recruiting new ones?A: I'm only talking about the personnel we have. Anything else is speculationQ: The readings appointed for today seemed to give you some trouble. Are you looking forward to next week's lessons?A:��I don't decide what the readings are.�I'm not going to comment on something I don't have control over.Q: Are you disappointed by the lack of munchkins at coffee hour?A: Are munchkins mentioned in the Bible?Q: Is the vestry excited about the new adult education program?A: You'd have to ask them about that.Q: The new Sunday School curriculum looks really engaging. Are you excited about it?A: We'll see how it goes.Q: Did you know there are weeds growing in the church yard?A: I'm responsible for every aspect of church life.Q: Do you really think adding another service on Sunday morning is going to work?A: We just try to do what's in the best interest of the parish.Q: Did you notice attendance is down this year?A: It is what it is.
Okay, back to post-church football watching. �Love this time of year!

I noticed a couple of you are dealing with this situation. I thought the topic deserved it's own thread.
As parents, how does it make you feel? I'm dealing with it from a different perspective. My sister, her husband and their daughter are living with MY parents, and I am struggling with a lot of different aspects of it. Might be a good thing to discuss here with ATC friends since it's the "offseason" anyway.

Good to have him back
December 17 2007 01:39PM
Perhaps it's been said too much, or perhaps its the 40 of Crown Royal we drank over meetings this morning... But we just can't help but get a little bit of a glow when we think about Fernando Pisani's glorious return to the NHL.
Consider that this guy went through what amounts to a living hell, and was facing retirement. Instead of calling it a career, he's come back, scored twice and has a shootout winner on the books.
Let #34 stand as an example to underperforming players around the league and on the Oilers (*cough* Torres): whatever you think your obstacles are, or whatever you need to overcome, think of 'Nando. He's worked his way into being a hell of a two-way player, then went on the run in the playoffs, then almost lost it all.
But does 'Nando turtle? No! He wills himself back into the lineup, doing 5,000 pushups a day* and pots himself a pair of goals and an assist in his first eight games back.
Welcome back, Fernando.
*We've made an assumption here. It's probably much higher than that.

Alan Peterson will also be presenting The 2008 Brass Hands Award to Bill Allinson (OHV Volunteer Coordinator for Price BLM). Bill will be receiving the award for the many successful projects and public relations work that he has coordinated while working for Price BLM.
The Brass Hands Award is a prestigious award that Peterson gives out each year to a person (or) persons whose efforts stand out amongst the many who are worthy of recognition. The Brass Hands Award acknowledges a person's total commitment to maintaining responsible multiple-use of our public lands.
The presentations will take place in the conference room, inside the large Carbon County Event Center. Bill Barrett Corporation is a contributor for the reward money along with the ATV clubs.
Peterson said, "We are proud of the fact that different land users (motorized recreation, industry and cattlemen) can work together for the common good and watch out for each other's interests on public lands. It's the 'good neighbor' policy that all mankind should live by."

By DAVID MARTINRegional EditorStory courtesy of the Green RiverWyo. Star
When someone joins any branch of the armed forces, one typically expects to learn honor and discipline and perhaps embark on the adventure of a lifetime.
One marine who recently returned home to Green River, Wyo. can say he had a duty only a few marines have an opportunity to perform, flying the President of the United States.
Kyle Cox recently returned home from the Marine Corps. and his time as a member of Marine Helicopter Squadron One, HMX-1.
HMX-1, also known as as the Nighthawks, are a group tasked with providing helicopter services for the president, vice president and foreign leaders.
After completing a tour of duty in Iraq, spending seven months as a door gunner and crew chief of a CH-46 Sea Knight, Cox was selected to serve with HMX-1. After two years serving in the squadron, he was selected to serve on Marine One, the president's helicopter, through an in-house vote amongst other members of the squadron.
Cox said he was surprised to be selected, though he was more worried about making a mistake while in flight than anything else.
Dec. 6, 2010 was Cox's last flight on Marine One. Once the helicopter landed, Cox and President Barack Obama shook hands which is a moment Cox said he'd never forget.
Cox said he returned home to help his family's oilfield business and to raise a family.
Cox recently married his wife Kelsey in September. He admits it's possible to raise a family while in the Marine Corps, but it's a hard task because he would most likely miss important dates such as birthdays and holidays.
"I'm proud of my husband," Kelsey said about her husband's service.
She said they plan to buy a house in Green River, Wyo. and start a family.
"I want a big family," she concluded, saying they planned to have four children.
Kyle's mother, Kim Wilkins, said she plans to host an open house celebrating the couple's marriage in April.
Kyle said his service in the Marine Corps was a very rewarding experience. He said he gained confidence and life experience he can share with others.
Kyle is the grandson of Claudia Kenney of Orangeville, and Clifford and Janice Snow of Ferron.

On Sept. 8, a cloudburst created flash flooding in the San Rafael Swell below Ferron. Twelve visitors to the Arapeen ATV Jamboree along with their four local guides were stranded until around midnight.
Mark H Williams was leading the group, Don Wilberg was the guide in the center, and Ted Farmer and Gordon Ehler were riding sweep for the group of ATV enthusiasts. "The trip was just beautiful and the weather did not look to be a problem, and we made it down Fix-it Pass OK," said Williams. "At Slipper Arch, it began to sprinkle and we stopped and everyone put on their rain gear. We rode for approximately six miles before the water began to build up on the trail. Before we could make it out of the canyon, water from the cloudburst to the West of us began to run off the slick rock and flood the washes.
"We rode for the next 7.2 miles in at least one and a half feet of water in North Coal Wash. We knew we had to get out of the canyon before more water came, we were trying to beat the flood," said Williams.
The group proceeded along the trail, and each of the out of town visitors was in awe of the beauty of the water cascading from the rock walls of the canyons. Some of the waterfalls created by the heavy rain were dropping 100-150 feet into the bottom of the canyon. This was a rarely seen sight.
When the group neared the junction of the ATV trail and the road into Belleview Flats, where their vehicles were parked, the water rushing down Salt Wash was more than four feet deep and they could not cross to gain access to their trucks. Several of the riders gathered wood and built a fire to try to dry out and warm up from the trip out of Coal Wash.
After an hour and a half waiting for the rushing water to recede, Farmer tied a rope around his waist while four or five of the men held onto him. He waded into the rushing water to test the depth, and when the level reached his belt buckle he knew it was to deep and the group would have to continue to wait it out. After several hours, he tried it again and determined that it would be safe for the riders to cross. So the group proceeded to the vehicles, loaded up and began the trip back to Ferron.
When they had gone about a quarter mile, Williams stopped them and informed them that a culvert had washed out from the rains, and there was an eight foot deep drop off in the middle of the road. They unloaded their machines, made their way around the wash-out, and continued to ride the ATVs all the way back to Ferron.
Phyllis Nietzert, of Grand Junction, Colo. said, "It was a nice ride until it started to sprinkle. Then it became wet and muddy very quickly. Our guides were all very knowledgeable about the area and the conditions, and they did everything they could to get us out of there unharmed."
Harvie Abner, a 73 year old retiree from Hamilton, Ohio had come in for the Jamboree. "It was not a good ride, it was a great ride. I came to ride and enjoy the scenery, and I was not going to let a little rain keep me from having a good time. From here I'm going to Moab to ride some more, and then I'm going on to the Rocky Mountain Jamboree in Richfield."
With the use of cell phones, the group was able to contact those waiting in town for their return. As soon as he was notified, Emery County Commissioner Gary Kofford alerted the county road crew and then drove to the area. The road crew came, brought in equipment, and they were beginning repairs to the road before the riders returned to Ferron. Commissioner Kofford remained at the scene until all the visitors and guides were safe and accounted for.
Those repairs were completed on Friday, and the vehicles that were abandoned during the flood have all been safely retrieved.

Patience is Banner's only game these days
LOS ANGELES – The tweet from Zach Banner on a recent evening read, "I just want to play so bad."
Social-media banality can be mind-numbing at times, but sometimes it only takes 140 characters to say it all.
Football? Basketball? Banner didn't specify his desire. Probably both. Absurdly talented 6-foot-9, 325-pound young men aren't accustomed to sitting around and watching their peers play out their athletic dreams. And he will be watching again this Saturday when USC plays host to No. 1 Notre Dame.
At the same time, teenage athletes don't normally show the type of patience, discipline and self-trust that Banner is displaying. If he chose, Banner, a freshman at USC, could be playing a backup role on the offensive line for the football team, or a backup role for the basketball team as a massive center.
Right now he's playing for neither team, and betting that one day he will be a starter for both.
Banner chose to redshirt in football this year, but participates in morning practices and workouts. At night, Banner walks over to Galen Center and shoots. In January, after football ends, he will join the basketball team, two months into its season. Until then, Banner is regularly putting in 16 1/2-hour days of football, basketball and school work, with no assurance that he will appear in a game -- any game -- before next fall.
"I'm not going to waste this year, lollygagging in football and lollygagging in basketball," Banner said after a recent football practice. "I'm definitely going full-blast, because I'm making sure I'm ready for the future."
It's likely to be a bright future. Banner, a Washington native and son of former NFL lineman Lincoln Kennedy, was a top offensive tackle recruit a year ago and chose USC over Oklahoma and Washington. Banner picked USC, in part, because of an assurance that he would also be allowed to play basketball.
An offensive lineman on the basketball court? It conjures an image of a wide, slow center parked under the basket, unable to run much, hoping a stray rebound falls into his hands. That's not Banner. He's enormous but not out of shape. For a player his size, he has solid footwork and mobility.
Still, there isn't much of a template for Banner. Two-sport athletes are increasingly rare at top-level NCAA schools, and are usually limited to football players going out for track or baseball in the spring. It's rare to see a fall athlete play a winter sport, and even rarer to see an offensive tackle succeed at basketball.
USC's most recent football-basketball contributor was Gregg Guenther Jr., a decade ago. Guenther, though, fit in the mold of Tony Gonzalez, a tall tight end who weighed 250 pounds at most.
"It's different for me," Banner said. "Usually, big guys aren't able to get up and down the court. If you see them trying to play basketball, it's funny as hell. But not for me. I'm definitely not going to be a joke.
"I want to do something different. The adversity, people talking about how I can't do it, that helps."
Motivation helps Banner on long days. On weekdays, he wakes up at 4:30 a.m. and is one of the first players on the field for football practice. After that, he lifts weights, then goes to class. At night, he's at Galen Center, often working out alone, shooting baskets and doing agility drills that also help him in football.
"The footwork that I do on the court, I can bring it (to football)," Banner said, "and then the strength that I build in football, I bring it over there. It's total domination of both sports."
That remains to be seen. It's easy to see Banner playing a big role in basketball next season, when the Trojans lose some frontcourt depth. In football, though, freshman Max Tuerk is already starting at left tackle, and Kevin Graf has one more season at right tackle. Sophomore tackle Aundrey Walker is also in the mix.
For now, Walker is in watch-and-learn mode for the first time since his freshman year of high school.
"You can see it on my face on the sideline every Saturday," Banner said. "It's hard. It's hard seeing my teammates out there. I can pat them on the back but that's it. On the other hand, it's easy, because I love these guys so much that I want to try to be that sense of inspiration for them, to tell them to keep going."
Banner has also been a regular presence at early-season basketball games. During pregame warmups, he stands on the court in street clothes. During games, he sits in a chair on the baseline, near the end of the team bench, his teammates' biggest fan, literally and figuratively.
"I just sit on the bench and watch and learn and support my guys," Banner said. "That's the biggest thing I can do until January."

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
The second annual Castle Country Economic Development Summit began with a tour of the Castle Valley Outdoors on Oct. 6. Participants boarded the bus at the Museum of the San Rafael and Kathleen Truman gave a bit of Emery County history on the way to the ranch. She said that Brigham Young issued a call to settle Castle Valley and it was his last official act as President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Indians were on hand to greet the pioneers who arrived in the valley. Emery County was popular in those days with horse traders. Homesteaders had to live on their ranch to prove up and then a lot of them moved back into the towns which had sprung up along every creekbank. The original name of Moore was Rochester. Because land developers that came into the area arrived from Rochester, New York.
Around the same time as the canals were dug to Emery, the canal was brought into Moore. Many articles appeared in the Emery County Progress detailing the land developers. Ray Wareham said that when he was a child, 28 families lived in Moore. There was a church meeting house that doubled as a school or vice/versa. Truman is quite familiar with the history of Moore having lived there as a child. LC Moore sold out to LeRoy Bunderson, Truman's grandpa. Moore had been there for 31 years, beginning his land developments in 1910 and selling out in 1941. He also served a postmaster for the town. He had the town's name changed to Moore, quite likely after himself.
Dugouts and houses remain today along the Muddy from the bygone era. The Castle Valley Ranch has made use of old cabins on their land using them for tack rooms and other facilities. The ranch raises cattle and alfalfa hay. The ranch has an eight foot elk proof fence around its entirety. Upon arrival at the ranch, Truman introduced the crowd to Glendon Johnson, co-owner of the ranch. Johnson said the ranch is popular with the birds because of the wetlands, 46 species of birds were counted there recently. Johnson said in talking to an old cowboy friend, the friend told him, "I heard you never sold your saddle," and Johnson said, "I hope I never do." Johnson spoke of their love for the ranch and its beauty.
Johnson told of the two children he has buried at another ranch they have called the Baker Ranch. The original question came up of where Glendon wanted to be buried and he told his children under the Arch at the Baker Ranch, and as it turns out he had a son who died in an automobile accident at the age of 22 and a daughter who died of leukemia and he buried them there under the Arch. "That's where I want to be," said Johnson, "not in some crowded cemetery."
Johnson said they are a working cattle ranch with 16,000 deeded acres. They host visitors from all over the world at the retreat. They come to hunt in the surrounding mountains and the ranch also hosts pheasant hunts with birds raised by Jim Fauver. They also have fishing ponds. The Castle Valley Ranch was recently featured in the Gun Dog magazine where the writer said, "I have never had a better experience than the pheasant hunt here at the ranch." Johnson said that was high praise coming from a man who hunts birds all over. Johnson invited the guests to tour the lodge and the old farmhouse which has been restored. A new eight bedroom lodge is being built across from the lodge.
The steak dinner was cooked by the Society for Range Management. They use cooking projects to raise funds for an endowment fund for college students wanting to go into agriculture education. Jim Brown from Roosevelt and Dean Stacy from Price cooked the steaks. George Cook kept an eye on the Dutch oven potatoes along with Rusty Truman. Ron Torgerson is the president of the Utah State Society for Range Management and his wife, Jana helped in the cooking production.
The guests dined in the outdoors on steak, rolls, vegetables, salad and Dutch oven cobbler and ice cream. They were entertained by Miss Emery, Shala Pitchforth who performed three numbers. Cowboy poets Sam DeeLeeuw of Manti and Scott McKendrick of Logan entertained with cowboy poetry. The poem by DeLeeuw about religion stated that most religions don't recognize other religions and Mormons don't recognize each other in Mesquite, brought quite a chuckle from the audience. The audience learned about Big Hilda, being a rancher's wife and how to give advice to your husband as he's being chased by a cow. McKendrick told about how fall time at the ranch is different than spring when everyone is raring to go. He also told a story about reincarnation where a flower grows on your grave and the cow eats the flower and then out comes a cow dropping and you really haven't changed that much after all.

(BPT) - Europe continues to attract the attention of American travelers, and travel on river cruises is one of the best ways to see many of the continent's sights and explore much of its history. In response to strong demand, cruise lines are offering many new and expanded services to accommodate this growing travel interest:
Expanding to new rivers. Many river cruise lines are bolstering their cruise portfolios by expanding to rivers where they haven't before offered itineraries. Such is the case with Tauck, a leader in premium quality guided travel for 88 years, which is adding two new cruises on the Seine River in 2014. "Cruising the Seine Plus Versailles, Paris & London," 14 days, begins with an included two-night stay in London at the landmark Savoy, complete with guided sightseeing. Guests travel next to France for a nine-day cruise along the Seine, before enjoying an in-depth exploration of Paris and a two-night stay in Versailles at the Trianon Palace Versailles, a Waldorf Astoria property.
"Rendezvous on the Seine," 10 days, includes a two-night stay in Paris. A subsequent seven-day cruise on the Seine is highlighted by a tour of Normandy's historic D-Day beaches, an excursion to seaside Honfleur, guided tours of abbeys and chateaux, and a farm visit and tasting of local specialties in Etretat.
Added offerings on existing rivers. Many of the popular rivers already traveled by cruise lines will have additional options added. These rivers include the Danube - where travelers can visit Regensburg, Germany and travel to Bratislava, Slovakia – and the Rhine, where visitors love exploring nearby Amsterdam, Cologne and everything between to Basel, Switzerland.
New ships. Many river cruise lines are expanding their fleets to keep up with demand, and Tauck is no exception. Next year the company will launch a pair of "newbuilds," the ms Savor and ms Inspire. At 443 feet, the ships will be the longest in the company's fleet, but the new vessels will accommodate far fewer passengers than same-sized ships in other lines, to ensure a less crowded and more intimate atmosphere. As with its existing ships, Tauck will also staff the new riverboats with a Cruise Director and three professional Directors to provide the highest possible levels of service.
Those interested in more information on Tauck's river cruise offerings can visit the company's website at www.tauck.com, or call 800-468-2825.
