"It is beautiful, looks wonderfully cuddly and cozy, is rated Easy and takes only 6 hours! How much better can it get? Throws, wraps and shawls are my favorite things and this one has me itching to get started. So nice that the different colors are used together plus using a 16mm hook means that it is chunky and warm and I like it so much that I will probably be making more than one!"
"As soon as I saw the word Intermediate I thought it would be too difficult. But I have done a test piece (which I always do when I am not sure of the pattern) and it is not at all difficult. And I have so many yarns left over from previous projects and have realized that I can make good use of them if I make the stripes a bit narrower than the pattern indicates. So here goes, wish me luck! Lol."
"I just love tie dyeing and now, having tried this project, our children think it is the best thing ever to do! Each one of them had a top they wanted to tie dye and we had such a lot of fun. A bit messy, but fun, lol! It took Granny back to the 60s and to the children it was something completely new and they just love their dyed tops. A great holiday project!"
"One of my favorite things is making jewellery. I just LOVE sterling silver and, particularly, silver wire so the Sizzix Twist and Style Tool opened up a whole new world of possibilities for me and it is one of the most used tools at my jewellery work bench. I have also begun using twisted silver wire on my range of braided leather mens bracelets and they are flying off the shelves! Have a look at this tutorial, I did and it really is great for learning how to best use the tool."
"My wonderful friend, Heather, loves retro crochet items so this awesome Granny Square Throw is going to send her right into orbit, lol! Her birthday is just a few months away so I must add it to my Things To Make list right now. Our teenage daughter, Lily, has offered to help which will make it an even more special gift because they have a very special bond. We already have a good idea of what colors she will love so are all set to get started!"
14 Creative Uses for Mesh Produce Bags

We asked our Facebook fans what they would do with mesh produce bags from the grocery store once the produce is gone. These little bags, which hold clementines, apples, brussels sprouts, and more, are too cute to throw away. Here are some genius ideas our crafty fans came up with for ways to reuse mesh produce bags. We love crafts using recycled materials!
- Wad them up in a ball, secure with an elastic, and use them as scrubbies to clean nonstick pans and other dishes.
- Hang the bags from a mirror and throw hair bows in them for easy access.
- Make potpourri sachets from them. First line each bag with colored tissue pape, fill them with a small amount of potpourri, and tie them shut with a decorative ribbon.
- Carry sand toys to the beach inside of them.
- Hold skeins of yarn inside the mesh bags, then pull from the center right through the mesh. No more tangles!
- Make them into bath loofahs.
- Sew them into the shape of a stocking, finish with binding fabric, and fill with pet treats. Mesh bags make pet stockings like they sell in stores.
- Run them through your embossing machine to add texture to your cards.
- Fold them in half, sew an X through them, and use them as dish rags.
- Add velcro so the bags can be opened and closed, and use them as lingerie laundry bags.
- You can crochet with them! Make crochet table settings and doilies from the mesh.
- Sew a doormat made of mesh product bags. Cut them into long strips, pin 3 or 4 together at one end and braid. Then sew the ends to another strip and continue until you have a long braid several feet long. Lay flat and and start to curl in an oblong shape. Stitch this as you go so you end up with a mat.
- Use them as a paint brush for splatter painting. Dip the wadded up mesh into your paint, then fling it at your canvas for a splattered look!
- Stretch the mesh over an old frame, staple it in place, and hang earrings from it for a stylish earring organizer.

A few more ideas Hang a bar of soap in one near the outdoor faucet to wash away garden and lawn dirt. You won't have to take it out of the bag to use, just scrub with the bag and all. If you use bar soap to shower, hang it in a plastic net bag over the shower head between showers so it will dry out and not melt into nothing. Use the soft ones to hold small items in the washer so they won't get lost. Not too small though, as the holes expand. Also, don't use them in hot water. Use them for bags to sort and group small food packages in the freezer.

So many great ideas, so little time! I am going to be using some for sure. I always hate tossing them away because I know there has to be a good use for them. My grand daughter likes to keep her stuffed animals in a large one I got when I bought a bushel of grapefruit. It hangs on a tension rod pole in the corner. That way she can see if they are all in it and as she says, they can breathe!

I cut them to size for placing over the iris & lily buds that are so appealing to the deer. I put the 'covers' on the growing stems & let them stay there until after the bud breaks & the petals begin to open. Then I cut them & bring them inside, & re-use the covers on any other budding or fully flowered plants that are around the garden. They deter rabbits & groundhogs, too.

A long time ago I had a large plastic mesh, about the size of chicken wire. It reminded me of a fish net, so I hung small Christmas lites on it, and little ornaments and strung it across my window. - I called it "Christmas-by-the-Sea."

If you have an antique sock knitting machine, these bags are better than yarn when it comes to the begiining waste part of the sock, and easier than using that (usaually warped) umbrella unit!

I live in the woods. Deer LOVE Oriental lilies. When my bulbs are growing, I protect the tops (where the lilies will be coming out) with upsidedown produce bags. The deer can't eat them. Now the deer will eat the leaves, so I try to use as long a bag as I can, but sometimes some leaves have to be sacrificed. But no matter because your bulbs are blooming from storing last year's sun energy, so you'll at least get to see the blooms. Take off the bags when the lilies are about to open up. You'll at least get to see a day or two of your flowers (or more) before the deer discover them. That's a toss-up. Some of my lilies the deer either ignore or didn't see, as they are browsers (a few bites here, a few bites there of foliage as they forage).

Feb 24, 2013
I think they're great for itty bitty newborn socks. Throw the socks in-tie the bag in a knot @ top, or run a piece of ribbon in & out @ the top, tie and throw in the washer & dryer. Haven't lost not one of my grandbabies socks yet!

I also use them to clean potatoes or other vegetables where the skin might be eaten. just take a square and under warm running water scrub the potato clean, gets in to the dimple areas well, just needs a bit of more attention to those areas. scrubber can be reused often just let it dry before storing.

Those are really great repurposing ideas. I save them to hold different items, but I was afraid to use them for some things. Now I have a better idea of how veristile & resilient they are. I love the reinforcing crochet idea.

you can also use them to hold small 2-3" pieces of scrap yarns and hang in a tree for the birds to use as nesting materials.

Great ideas - I've used them to hold a pets toy such as a big rubber ball which my doggie couldn't get into her mouth. I put the ball into the bag and then tie a big knot at each end and the dog can hold the knot and run around with the ball - and great for gentle tug of war as well.

May favorite way to use them is for lids and such that have no where to land in my dishwasher except the bottom. I use them as a bag to put those jar lids (and other small things to small for the DW) and simply hang it from the top rack.

These are some awesome ideas, I am always looking for things to make into something new.I recently used a mesh bag and tied it at one end for the bottom left the top open, then sewed a little handle to the top and it now hangs on the knob of my pantry door. It has replaced my gift of 25 years ago of a towel sewn together to put the shopping bags in when I come home from the store. It is so easy and convenient too. I crochet a lot and I cannot wait to try that one.

I keep these bags around for the little things that you want to throw into the dishwasher, but can't because they are so little. Place them in a bag tie it with elastic band (ones that come on my newspaper) and throw in the dishwasher. Did this for a bunch of plastic tops for my small plastic bowls.

I've used the mesh bags to hold a lot of fat from all our meats and sometimes some old bread (NOT MOLDY). I keep the mesh bag and it's contents in a plastic bag in the freezer then when ever, I take it out, allow it to somewhat melt, mash in some bird seed but keeping the hanging part out so it can be the hanger from a tree. The birds LOVE it and it's so good for them and their feathers.

I use these mesh bags to put moth balls in and hang outside my doors in the summertime to keep flies out of my house. I hang them beside the door and I don't have a problem with flies coming inthe house. I live in the South and sometimes flies can be a problem no matterhow clean you keepit around your doors.

Cut the bags into 2 to 3 inch strips and use to tie up plants to a stake. They are soft and will stretch as the plant grows. Great ideas here.

In the Spring, I fill a Haas avocado bag with cotton balls for the hummingbirds and smaller birds to use for nest building! You can tell that the birds use the cotton balls because they pull it through the bag.

W have a lot of birds that we feed, so we fold the top over about 2 inches, thread kitchen twine through the doubled top...fill it with suet and we have some really pleased chickaedees! We have even had the BIG woodpecker (pileated) come and enjoy the suet!! We save the mesh bags that turkeys come in as well! Recycling at it's best!

Here's about the only casting drill I do with my older dogs. I copied and pasted what I've written in the past on this drill. It's been posted on the RTF a few times so some will be pretty bored with it. The only other casting drill I do is/are the baseball drills that I do in basics with the puppies.
I do this every couple of weeks with my older dogs in different places My transition level early advanced dogs get this drill sometime after the double T four or five times a week at the same place until they're smooth. I then move it to other places with the little guys. With the old dogs I believe it keeps casting sharp and gives me an over when I need it. I line to each pile first and then cast. Mostly on featureless fields but also sometimes where there's cover and some terrain. I didn't make this drill up I stole it fair and square from Jim Gonia. No one drill keeps a high casting standard, you have to reinforce good casts in the field. This drill just ensures in my mind that the dog knows what the casts are so when they don't do it on an actual blind, I can make a fair correction.
Howard Niemi
You really gotta be careful about how high a pedestal you put your method, your accomplishments, your dog on. There's usually someone who's done more, somewhere. And they may have used a different method than you did! Chris Atkinson 2013
get your dog out and TRAIN! caryalsobrook 2013
Howard gave me this drill a couple of years ago and it is brilliant. It is amazing that I have never had a dog complete it perfectly even the titled ones!
If you play their game train the way they train
It seems the take away message in a lot of these casting/lining discussions, is that all the drills work! They were all designed (and at some point) used by a successful someone to successfully develop a dog to a very high level. It seems the specific drill, is more a function of what the handler enjoys running, and what they read their dog gains benefit from. The important thing is to practice, practice, practice! The best way to improve casting/handling is to practice casting/handling!
I have a 10 month old that I have been running WBB with. I really enjoy running it, and my pup seems to really enjoy it, and learn from it. I like the fact that it is not a static position type drill, and offers the flexability and versatility to add different factors, terrain and distances to cast and distances to carry casts...all within the same session. I'v read DL's book, but Evan's DVD for $12 is the best explanation I've seen of WBB.
On a side note, I ran an impromptu, shortened version of Howard's drill this morning, and see it as a very useful drill as well. Will definately be running the full length version, and incorporate it into our training. Thanks for sharing Howard!

Howard, I am a little confused as to how you run this. You mention lining the dogs first, and then casting. So are you stopping them midway to one pile and sending them to another? Or are you just sitting the dog facing you somewhere in the middle and casting from the line? Sorry, I must have missed the first go round. Thanks for posting.

2007 Mural Ad Update & Tuesday Speculations
Grand Theft Auto IV - General News | @ 09:52 PM MDT | By Slim Trashman
Man 1: Whoah. Is that paint?
Man 2: Yeah.
Man 1: Holy shit!
- normalblog
Yeah I'm posting another update on the big wall o' GTA IV in Manhattan, just trying to keep you guys interested. Two new pictures from this morning:
Thanks yet again to nicknormal for these photos
Update 10/15: Here's a quote from nicknormal's blog:
Monday 15 October:
updated photos coming shortly. you should all be quite pleased with the progress!
And here they are! (Wow, they really have progressed)
Also, I hate to throw out personal ideas or predictions, but maybe it will benefit everyone in the end. I'm predicting the ad will be finished sometime Tuesday afternoon, October 16th, the original scheduled day of release for GTA IV in North America. On that day of completion, the ad will reveal a new scheduled released date. Just a speculation but who knows, I could be dead on, or completely wrong and nothing will happen on Tuesday, maybe the ad won't even be done Tuesday, who knows. Just tossing out the idea so everyone is aware that something big in any form could go down Tuesday to make up for the delay.
Another idea of what could go down is an official site update and a trailer, of course featuring new screenshots, a storyline (synopsis), and other miscellaneous information gained by some fancy interactive Flash design.
What ever may happen though, we will certainly let you folks know!

Traditional "Cheesy" Kale Chips
1 bunch kale
2-3 Tbsp olive oil
¼ cup nutritional yeast
1 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
2 tsp dried herbs, such as basil
Wash & Mix
Wash your kale well, then break into pieces (I like to make them slightly larger than bite-sized so that they don't crumble when being stored). In a large bowl mix kale pieces, olive oil, nutritional yeast, apple cider vinegar and herbs. Massage everything together for several minutes (this is a great messy job for kids to help with!). Make sure all of the pieces are coated well. Add an additional teaspoon or two of olive oil if the kale seems especially dry (since a "bunch" can vary greatly in size).
Spread kale pieces onto dehydrator trays. You will need about two trays per bunch of kale. Dehydrate at 115 degrees for about 4-5 hours, until crisp and dry. Cool and store in an airtight container. Try to stop yourself from eating all of them in one sitting!
Asian-inspired Kale Chips
I bunch kale
1-2 Tbsp tamari or soy-sauce (low-salt version recommended)
2 Tbsp sesame oil
1 tsp powdered ginger
2 Tbsp sesame seeds
Mix & Dehydrate
Follow the same directions as for traditional kale substituting the soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, and sesame seeds for the traditional version's ingredients. Enjoy!
Note: Kale chips are mainstays in many raw food diets, and we use a dehydrator to keep drying temps low to maintain all the food's nutrients. However, if you don't have a dehydrator, put your oven on the lowest temperature (usually around 200 degrees), spread the kale chips on a baking sheet, and cook with the oven door cracked. You will need to check the recipe every 15 minutes or so, since the temperature will be harder to maintain than in a dehydrator. This recipe calls for one bunch of kale but it doubles and triples well so feel free to buy (or grow) as much kale as you like-the chips will get eaten up before you know it! And it's a great recipe to get kids involved.
One Response to "HOW TO: Make Cheesy or Asian-Inspired Kale Chips: Affordable, Healthy, and Irresistible Snacks"
Hi Marni-
My mouth watered while I read this! Such gorgeous photos of such a yummy snack. I actually got some kale into my very finicky preschooler by making kale chips! Thanks for the variations of the recipe.

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart: Engaged... On Set!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
Bravo, OK! magazine. You've taken the art of the attention-grabbing supermarket tabloid headline to new heights/depths.
In its latest issue, this celebrity gossip rag boldly states that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are engaged. But, like any credit card or mortgage application, one must read the fine print.
The sub-headline states that Rob proposed to Kristen on set, which is true... in the movie they're filming! As any Twilight Saga fan knows, Edward and Bella agree to marry in Eclipse.
Inside the issue, sources don't say a word about any engagement between Pattinson and Stewart, though insiders do confirm the couple crashes together in Rob's suite at the Sheraton Vancouver Wall Centre and is very cute in between takes.
"If Kristen is looking for Rob, she'll say, 'Has anyone seen my husband?''' said a source. "And Rob loves to say, 'Have you met my lovely wife, Kristen?' It's cute. They're like a couple of love-struck teenagers."
But these rumored new roommates are trying to keep the PDA to a minimum, insiders confirm, saving "real kisses for after the sun goes down... when you see them disappear into their hotel."
How come?As previously bantered about, Summit Entertainment wants New Moon viewers to actually believe in the romance between Bella (Stewart) and Jacob (Taylor Lautner) in the upcoming film.
Studio bosses supposedly "fear that if a romance between Rob and Kristen is confirmed, Twilight fans won't buy into the screen chemistry between Taylor and Kris."
After the November 20 opening of New Moon, though, look out! This publication's headline might become valid after all.

It appears that a few people have certified me. I guess that makes me certifiable. :-)
lilo seems to have the same conundrum as I with regard to certification. And kelly thinks I'm a Dimwit (no, kelly, I didn't take it personally) but also thinks that there's no difference between Dimwit and Master. Maybe I should certify myself as a Master.
And that's another thing ... why do people certify themselves? I think some sort of negative bias should be instituted for self-certification because you can't trust what people say about themselves.

Boy Scouts of America Innovation Challenge launched!
The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) and official licensee Edison Nation® have launched the Boy Scouts of America Innovation Challenge.The Innovation Challenge is looking to today's kids to develop tomorrow's products. Whether the invention solves a problem around the house, the yard or at school; helps you take better care of your pet; or creates a new way to learn or play, the BSA and Edison Nation® goal is to inspire young minds to submit creative, new product ideas.Open to all boys and girls age 7 to 21 years, the Challenge does not require that the young person be associated with the BSA to submit ideas or be selected as an "inventor."Edison Nation works with everyday people and inventors to turn their extraordinary ideas into products sold by major retailers. It is free to join the Edison Nation® online community and costs just $25 to submit an idea ($10 for current Boy Scouts of America members who submit an idea as a part of this challenge). Because the Boy Scouts of America Innovation Challenge is for youth inventors, a parent or guardian is required to be involved during the submission process for those under the age of 18.The Boy Scouts of America Innovation Challenge ends May 7, 2012. To learn more about the challenge or to submit an idea, visit www.edisonnation.com/boyscouts.If you would like to help promote the Boy Scouts of America Innovation Challenge on your website, please contact us at email@example.com for banners and more information.

Kim Smitka, the Program Designer (left) and Jennifer Koskela, Brand License Director (right)
"To be successful in the creative consumer products industry, it's critical to understand what the consumer wants and what she feels she is missing," said Cara Farley, V.P. of Paper Arts Division at EkSuccess Brands®. "We value our licensed partnerships and enjoy the challenge of growing and strengthening our respective brands. K & Company is comprised of highly creative minds. We work in a fun and creative space, and enjoy collaborating and mixing it up.""Working with the Boy Scouts of America as a licensee has allowed us to sell our products in retail channels where K & Company has not previously participated," Farley continued, "It has also allowed us to build our brand licensing business, and stretch into new kid-related categories."While K & Company is known for high caliber design, it strives to innovate new product formats so that its consumer feels the products are fresh, fun and meets the paper crafting and scrapbooking needs."Typically, our consumer is the proud parent, usually a mom, of a Cub Scout, Boy Scout, or Venturer who enthusiastically enjoys memory keeping as much as she enjoys the opportunity to showcase all of her son's achievements in the Scouting program," explained Farley.The Boy Scouts of America scrapbooking collection from K & Company was designed to encompass and celebrate all of the major advancement milestones that the BSA recognizes for its programs-from Tiger Cubs to Venturing, as well as activities such as Pinewood Derby® and the outdoor adventures that make the BSA exciting, like mountaineering, rock climbing, and even surfing! From stickers and embellishments to papers and personalized scrapbook albums, K & Company products provide a place to capture and share the memories that are made along the way.The Boy Scouts of America scrapbooking collection from K & Company is sold in independent retail stores, the BSA Scout Shops, and on eksuccessbrands.com.

UW-L will allow male and female students to live together on campus
LA CROSSE, Wis. - For the first time, University of Wisconsin-La Crosse will allow male and female students to live together on campus in suite-style dorms.
So far, there's only been one formal request for a co-ed living situation next school year.
But that now opens the door for other interested students to ask for the same arrangement.
It's a breakthrough the university's LGBT population has been waiting for.
UW-L senior Sarah Schmidt lived on-campus her first three years, but she said her roommates weren't always accepting of her bisexuality.18523018
"I know of one person in particular who I would have loved to be able to room with for my sophomore year, but he was a man. So that wasn't an option for me," said Schmidt.
Starting in the fall, that's going to change.
The UW Board of Regents leaves it up to the chancellor on each campus to decide whether to give students the option of co-ed housing.
UW-L Chancellor Joe Gow is giving it a thumbs-up.
"I think that if students are paying to live in our residence halls and we have the ability to give them the kind of situation that they're comfortable with, we certainly should do that. I don't know why we would stand in the way of that. And I guess I'm kind of intrigued if there are people who are concerned about this, exactly why they would be," said Gow.
Schmidt said it's an issue that's been especially important to the growing transgender population on campus.
"It's their dorm room. It's where they go and sleep every night. And hypothetically, they should be able to be themselves and be comfortable and safe. But for a lot of transgender students, that's not the case right now," said Schmidt.
Only one dorm on campus will offer gender-neutral housing -- Reuter Hall. That's because it's the only hall that has suite-style apartments with separate bedrooms.
Reuter Hall is also the most expensive dorm on campus. It costs nearly $5,300 dollars to live there for the academic year.
Schmidt said it's a start, but she's concerned it might price some students out of their only option for co-ed housing.
More than one-third of UW-L undergraduates live on-campus.
Gow said any students who want to request on-campus co-ed housing should contact the Office of Residence Life.

Symposium focuses on Greek art, Nov. 22
Posted November 14, 2003; 03:56 p.m.
An international symposium presented by scholars of ancient Greek art will take place Saturday, Nov. 22, in McCosh 10.
"Monsters and Mischwesen: The Human Animal in Early Greek Art" will run from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. It is sponsored by the Department of Art and Archaeology and the Program in Hellenic Studies.
The symposium is in connection with "The Centaur's Smile: The Human Animal in Early Greek Art," the first exhibition in the United States to explore the role of mythical monsters in ancient Greek culture. The exhibition, on view at the University Art Museum through Jan. 18, features 100 pieces from the museum's permanent collection and private collections in the United States, France and Spain. It focuses on the significance composite creatures -- including the half-man, half-horse centaurs -- had for the early Greeks by examining their antecedents in the art of Egypt and the Near East.
"The Centaur's Smile" was conceived in 1998 after the museum acquired a Greek bronze statuette of a centaur dating to about 530 B.C., which is a signature piece in the exhibition. Other items include terracotta statuettes, painted ceramic vases, sculptural reliefs, jewelry, metalwork and engraved gems.
For more information, call Princeton Art Museum at (609) 258-3788.

text: In Paul's Letters to Corinthians he addresses ongoing problems experienced in the Church at Corinth. These problems included dissension, immorality, lawsuits, liturgical abuses and their tendency to fall prey to "false teachers". Paul tackles each of these problems with his typical spiritual zeal, strengthening their faith and commitment to build up the Body of Christ. Two thousand years later, as we struggle with much the same problems, Paul's words of wisdom are both pertinent and valuable.

What do you think about breaking this section down by states?
What do you think about breaking this section down by states?
I feel a great disturbance in the Force.
I think it would be good. Yeah... it would make the section HUGE, but I think that finding the information would be easier. That way I won't have to get all upset when I see what every other state is getting and we're missing out on here in Ohio!!!!
Well, either way is okay with me.
I'm not sure about others, but I do enjoy reading about what other people are finding elsewhere. I then have an idea if the new stuff is coming to a store near me.
So are you talking about having one large "just found" section broken down into subsections for each state and then threads in each one?Originally posted by SirSteve
What do you think about breaking this section down by states?
If you go ahead with it, please leave a 'General' section where it's not location specific. Sometimes it's nice just to read that people are starting to find new waves come out or are finding that things are being put on clearance at a particular nationwide retail chain.
"I'm just a YES man trying to make my way in the universe." - Jango McCallum
"Good dialogue and smooth editing are no match for a good YES man by your side, kid." - George Lucas
Yes, it would be a huge listing BUT I have something else in mind. Let me see if it'll work before I say anything.
I feel a great disturbance in the Force.
I try to use this section to narrow down my hunting expeditions. If I see here that a new wave has hit at a Target in Colorado, my main focus for hunting will be the Targets in my area. If the section is broken up by state (as some are now) I need to look through every thread to try and find what I am looking for. I would prefer some kind of "New Item" or "Specific Item" threads. One thread could be "All Maul/Luke Deluxe findings here", or "Eeopies on the internet", or "Older Clearance Items", something like that.
Just a thought...
I think it's a good idea even though there would be no posts in the Iowa section.
If you break it down by states may be the moderator of the Iowa section please.
I think it is a good idea in principle, but I am guessing it would be too congested with all 50 states, plus subsections for each state.
I like MandCand's idea of keeping a general section, cuz a lot of collectors are interested in finds in other parts of the country. I'll probably never visit Iowa in my liftetime, but I'll check the thread to see what the rest of the country is finding.
"The dark side clouds everything. Impossible to see, the future is. But this I am sure of - do their duty the Jedi will." --Yoda from Attack of the Clones.
I read this section to get an idea of how the new stuff is finding its way across the country. If I have to check 49 different sections, I'll simply stop using these forums. Don't do it. If it ain't broke.... y'know?
"Do or do not... there is no try."

I'm starting to understand the hype about twitter. They were smart opening up their API to a simple bash script. See below for a sample that allows you to easily tweet from the command line.
#!/bin/bash TEXT=$* curl -s -u username:password -d status="${TEXT}" https://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml >/dev/null
I guess the value comes from finding interesting people to follow. Suggestions?
I've solved 50 problems at this site, and I'm not even rated as a novice. Instead, I'm a level 2 cube. You're not considered an expert until you hit level 5, which requires you to solve over 200 problems. So, it looks like I'll be at it for awhile.
The problems require the use of induction and the use of a computer. My language of choice for this is Python, but you'll see, once you enter your answer, how other people have solved the problem. Some people use assembly.
You might want to take a quick look see. Careful, it's addictive.
I wasn't happy with Linksys SRW248G4 switch. After using it for over a year, which is the length of the warranty, it slowly began to fail. It finally got to the point where it would only handle 10baseT/Half, and even with that setting, a lot of packets were dropped. In addition, the ssh interface is limited. Instead, the main interface is an http interface which requires Microsoft's IE (with low security for ActiveX controls).
So, I replaced the Linksys switch with a Soekris Net5501 computer, with SanDisk Extreme III 8.0GB CompactFlash card,a wireless mPCI card from Netgate( 802.11a/b/g), and a lan1641 (PCI Quad ethernet board). You have to install an operating system on the device. A lot of people choose OpenBSD, but Linux (Fedora 8 with a custom kernel config) works just fine.
The first thing that impressed me was lack of noise. Since the Soekris Net5501 doesn't require a fan, it's completely silent. Second, you get complete control over the setup -- how you're going to handle bridging, firewall rules and additional software. There is enough power on the device to run a mail server, Apache, and even compile programs on the device in a reasonable amount of time. In fact, I ended up compiling Postfix from source directly on the device. For kicks I compiled the Linux kernel, but that took the better part of the night.

"The Mathematics of Poker", by Bill Chen and Jerrod Ankenman. (2006)An excellent book on poker especially if you're into programming poker bots. The book explains the math, leaving no missing steps; yet, these guys know their math (Chen has a a PhD in Mathematics from Berkeley, and works at a well known Susquehanna International Group, that specializes in financial analysis). These guys know their poker too. Chen has 2 world series bracelets in a subdivision of hold'em.
If you're interested in programming Java poker bots, you may
want to checkout Poker
Academy. You can plug in your Java coded bots and use
these bots to play against other players on line for PAX
(poker play money).
A quick note, don't be fooled by the
term play money - you'll have to earn that money with hard
work against other good players. Time is money. It takes
time to earn PAX; therefore, PAX is equivalent to money.

You can't get these from a pizza shop! Heart-shaped individual pizzas tell your family they're special. Serve them often!
Tip if using classic crust: For a crispier crust, prebake crusts 5 minutes, then add toppings; bake pizzas 7 to 9 minutes.
Feeling tropical? Substitute pineapple tidbits and thin-sliced deli ham, and bake as directed.
Be bold! Substitute a thin layer of barbecue sauce in lieu of red sauce, top with your choice of meat and cheese, and bake as directed. Or coat chicken chunks in spicy barbecue sauce for quick and zesty buffalo pizza!
From cute to cuter: Use a small heart-shaped cookie cutter or paring knife to cut pepperoni slices into adorable hearts to adorn your pizza.
Go gourmet! Extra special toppings make extraordinary pizza. Try artichoke hearts and shrimp, roasted potato chunks and braised beef tips, or eggplant sprinkled with Parmesan cheese.
Blushing pizza: Use red meats and veggies, such as pepperoni, red bell pepper, tomato, red chili pepper (use sparingly!), red onion, and diced red potato (keep red skins on). Sprinkle top lightly with curry or paprika for added blush.
Any crust shape works: Try bunny, pumpkin or shamrock shapes for other holidays, or simple individual round pizzas for no holiday at all!

Deeplinks Blog posts about Patents
We've seen an all-out assault on the side of the opposition to kill the House's Innovation Act and the Senate's PATENT Act. As a result, patent reform stands on shaky ground in Congress.
A common trend has emerged in the anti-reform camp's rhetoric, though: lies, fabrications, and untruths. We're frustrated in seeing these myths arise time and again, and we're going to make an effort to dispel them.
For example, an email sent earlier this week to small businesses in the high-tech space in Connecticut urged owners to oppose the Innovation Act. Much of the email matches the general opposition's rhetoric, and, well, it's just plain wrong:
Stupid Patent of the Month: Wetro Lan Sues Entire Network Security Industry With Expired Garbage Patent
Like all of the patents we highlight in our Stupid Patent of the Month series, this month's winner, U.S. Patent No. 6,795,918, is a terrible patent. But it earns a special place in the Pantheon of stupid patents because it is being wielded in one of most outrageous trolling campaigns we have ever seen.
Earlier this year, together with Durie Tangri, EFF stepped in to defend a photo hobbyist facing a patent suit. The patent owner, Garfum.com Corporation, claimed to have invented competitions on social networks where users vote for the winner. Garfum recently abandoned its lawsuit. Yesterday, we filed a motion asking the court to declare the case 'exceptional' and award our client attorneys' fees.
It has now been just over a year since the Supreme Court issued its opinion in Alice v. CLS Bank. Since then, over 100 cases have looked at whether granted patents meet the standards set in Alice. The result has been overwhelmingly on the side of finding patents invalid. Alice has become a crucial tool for those fighting against overbroad patents on abstract ideas.
EFF, along with Public Knowledge, filed an amicus brief on Friday asking the Federal Circuit to apply Alice in the latest in a slew of cases on appeal after a district court invalidated a patent.
Printers aren't all that expensive. Ink for the printers, on the other hand, can cost more than fine Champagne and tends to be far less delicious. Lexmark, in yet another attempt in a long line of schemes, is trying to use patent law to make sure it stays that way.
In a case called Lexmark v. Impression Products, Lexmark is trying to use patent law to prevent customers from lawfully getting cheaper ink. Lexmark argues that by slapping a "notice" on the side of a patented ink cartridge, they can limit consumers to using the cartridges only once under the threat of patent infringement.

The Trans-Canada Highway has been re-opened near Corner Brook, the RCMP advise.
A transport truck and a car remain in the median near the Lewin Parkway, but are not obstructing traffic.
Department of Transportation snow plows will be remain in the area to try to prevent the build up of snow, the RCMP notes.
Visibility, however, remains an issue due to the high winds and whiteouts, and the RCMP is advising motorists that if they don't need to travel, they should avoid venturing out on the highways.
Corner Brook RCMP is advising the public that all lanes of the Trans-Canada Highway running through the City of Corner Brook are being closed for an undetermined period due to high winds causing zero visibility.
Police say several vehicles are in the ditch and several transport trucks are stuck on the road. All westbound traffic is being rerouted into the city at the Riverside Drive Exit.
Eastbound traffic is being re-routed at the Massey Drive Exit into the city.
The Department of Transportation has been contacted and will be assisting with the road closure.
Earlier story
Corner Brook RCMP are advising the public that high winds continue to plague the area and travel is not advised at this time due to current white out conditions.
Police say several vehicles are stuck on the highway near the Lewin Parkway exit into Corner Brook and visibility is extremely poor.
Deer Lake and Corner Brook district RCMP are advising drivers of very dangerous driving conditions in the Corner Brook area, both east and west of Corner Brook.
The RCMP is reporting numerous vehicles off the road on the Trans-Canada Highway. Police are advising motorists to stay off highways in the area until conditions improve and if you do have to travel, do so with extreme caution.
STEPHENVILLE — The Department of Transportation and Works was reporting wet roads and good visibility in most areas Monday afternoon.
Such was the case from Corner Brook to Stephenville Access Road (Route 460) and on the access road itself. It was a different story for the section of the Trans-Canada Highway from the access road to Port aux Basques, with slush and heavy, wet snow in areas. Winds gusts of up to 73 km/hr were reported at the Wreckhouse area and was expected to increase into the night.
Burgeo Highway (Route 480) was reported to have a few slippery and slushy sections with fair visibility in the afternoon.
A problem late last week with water flooding an estuary leading into Mattis Point, causing access to be restricted to emergency vehicles only, was cleared up on Saturday and there were no problems reported there Monday. Some minor shoulder repairs need to be made, which the Department of Transportation and Works said would be attended to once conditions permitted.
On Monday afternoon, Marine Atlantic reported the Highlanders ferry was tied up in Port aux Basques and the Blue Puttees was holding at port in North Sydney, N.S.
Passengers with reservations were being advised for the next 24 to 48 hours to keep checking back with the reservations line to see when the vessels would resume sailing.
There were no cancellations of schools reported in Stephenville or the larger Bay St. George area, including the Port au Port Peninsula on Monday.
It was a non-ski day at Marble Mountain as all 39 of its runs were closed due to inclement weather conditions brought on by mild weather. The runs were closed as of 10:45 a.m. and patrons were asked to check back on the website, www.skimarble.com.
Officials with Environment Canada were forecasting a large-scale weather system for Monday evening, with indications of significant storm surge potential through the night and into today. High waves in the range of eight to 10 metres were expected to develop with increased water levels expected along the coastline.
The high winds are expected to taper off later today.
In Corner Brook, city work crews spent Monday ensuring catch basins were clear of debris and slob ice. A backhoe was stationed at the North Street headwall specifically to make sure there was no trouble at that location.
The city's heavy equipment was also busy clearing melting slush and ice off the main streets and side roads in anticipation of the 20 centimetres of snow expected overnight.

Chamber ensemble joins students with professional musicians
Posted March 25, 2010; 08:59 a.m.
Bringing Princeton students and leading professional musicians together on stage, the University's Richardson Chamber Players will perform at 3 p.m. Sunday, March 28, in Richardson Auditorium, Alexander Hall.
The ensemble exemplifies the strength of what is known as Princeton's "underground conservatory," pairing students with accomplished professional performers who also serve as private instructors in the University's Department of Music, according to conductor Michael Pratt.
"The Richardson Chamber Players give students a chance to play side-by-side with some of the top professionals in the world," he said. "It's a tremendous opportunity for growth for them."
The Richardson Chamber Players, founded during the centennial season of Princeton University Concerts in 1994-95, perform works that typically are not heard in smaller chamber music settings. The ensemble presents three concerts annually in Richardson Auditorium, featuring pieces with a variety of instrumentation and occasional vocal performances. The number of musicians in the ensemble changes with each composition, and Pratt collaborates with the instructors to choose students and guest artists to perform with the group.
The March 28 concert, "Blow Thou Winter Winds," will feature six students and five instructors, along with two alumni and four other guest artists. Among many professional credits, the instructors playing alongside their students have performed with the New York Philharmonic, the Boston Philharmonic, the Cleveland Orchestra, the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra, the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra, the Australian Chamber Orchestra, the Delaware Valley Philharmonic, the Laurel Piano Trio, the New Millennium Ensemble and the London Sinfonietta.

Freshman Katherine Elgin, a French horn player, said she was honored, but a bit intimidated, to be selected to perform with the ensemble.
"However, after spending two hours rehearsing with the professional players, I felt incredibly welcome and comfortable," Elgin said. "I felt as if they were excited to have me there, and I was certainly excited to be there. The level of musicianship is incredible, and I have never before been able to play in such an amazing group."
Pratt said the experience of performing with the Richardson Chamber Players gives students a valuable glimpse into the world of professional musicians.
"It's a totally professional schedule. We move fast," he said. "We have only a handful of hours of rehearsal for major works, rather than several weeks of rehearsal, so they're expected to come in and be prepared to move at that pace."

In the March 28 concert, the Players will present the Serenade for Winds in D Minor, Opus 44, by Czech composer Antonin Dvorak and the "Siegfried Idyll" by German composer Richard Wagner. The Dvorak piece will be presented with a full orchestral woodwind section, minus the flute, along with cello and bass. The ensemble for the Wagner piece will include strings, woodwinds and a brief trumpet performance at its climax.
"They're both great masterpieces," Pratt said. "For the wind players, the Dvorak piece is one of their favorite chamber works. The Wagner piece was a very special piece in his life -- it was a present for his wife to thank her for giving him his son. The first performance was on Christmas Eve morning, with the players all lined up outside her bedroom, where she was awakened by the strains of this music. It's a very intimate, very beautiful, very loving, rapturous work."
In addition, the concert will feature instructor Judith Pearce performing three Fantasias for Solo Flute by German Baroque composer Georg Philipp Telemann.
Pratt, conductor of the Princeton University Orchestra and director of the Department of Music's Program in Musical Performance, serves as artistic director of the Richardson Chamber Players along with Nathan Randall, artistic director of Princeton University Concerts. Pratt and Randall are the ensemble's cofounders.
"Blow Thou Winter Winds" is the second of the ensemble's three concerts this year. The final performance, "Love in Bloom," will be held at 3 p.m. Sunday, May 2.
Tickets for "Blow Thou Winter Winds" range from $10 to $20. They are available through University Ticketing or at the Richardson Auditorium box office, (609) 258-5000.
Because many of the instructors are professional musicians based in New York City, the students in the ensemble sometimes rehearse with them there. Pictured following a practice at the Ayers Percussion Rehearsal Studio in Manhattan are (from left) Princeton junior Leo Kim, conductor Michael Pratt, instructor Jack Hill, freshman Katherine Elgin, instructor Chris Komer, junior Justin Knutson and instructor Susannah Chapman.

Kahn to speak on leadership during public health crises
Posted October 8, 2009; 01:01 p.m.
Laura H. Kahn, a health policy researcher at Princeton, will discuss her new book, "Who's in Charge: Leadership During Epidemics, Bioterror Attacks and Other Public Health Crises," at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 15, in 120 Lewis Library.
Kahn is a physician and a research health policy scholar with the Program in Science and Global Security in the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. In the book, she argues for the necessity of a clear chain of command during public health emergencies, and explores five crises and how leadership broke down during each: the 2001 anthrax attacks; the 1993 outbreak of the parasite cryptosporidium in the United States; the 2003 SARS outbreak in Toronto; the 2001 foot-and-mouth disease crisis; and the years-long battle against mad cow disease in the United Kingdom.
Kahn holds a degree in nursing from the University of California-Los Angeles, an M.D. from Mount Sinai School of Medicine, a master of public health from Columbia University and a master of public policy from the Wilson School. She is also a fellow of the American College of Physicians.
The talk is sponsored by the Lewis Library.

Bangladesh Cleanup Coordinator Bikes U.S. to Fight Ocean Trash
Posted On September 10, 2012 by Sarah van Schagen
Muntasir Mamun was stopped at a gas station in Dayton, Ohio, when he saw a woman helping kids pick up the trash in their neighborhood.
As the International Coastal Cleanup Coordinator in Bangladesh, Muntasir would have found this scene inspiring in any context. But the fact that he was on a 3,500-mile bike ride across the United States to raise awareness about the impacts of trash made the moment all the more sweet.

Tonight at 9pm Eastern time on AXS TV Lion Fight 16 goes down, coming to you live from UFC International Fight Week in Las Vegas, Nevada. Lion Fight 16 will feature Kevin Ross vs. Michael Thompson for the Lion Fight Super Lightweight Championship, with the card also featuring Tiffany Van Soest and Rungravee Sasiprapa.
Check out the Lion Fight 16 weigh-ins first while you prepare for the action tonight.
As part of the agreement between Lion Fight and UFC, Lion Fight 16 will start their weekend of fights Friday, July 4th, at Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada. The headlining bout between "the Soul Assassin", Kevin Ross, and Australian hard hitter, Michael "Tomahawk" Thompson, has the inaugural Super Lightweight Championship on the line as well as the potential for a Fight of the Year candidate.
The possibility lies within their mutual propensity to attack their opponent and smother them with a variety of violence, through step in and clinch knees, elbows, kicks, and hook punches. Thompson has a brutal spinning back elbow he rolls into off his jab and missed crosses, and Ross possesses great uppercut elbows and kick counters. Furthermore, neither of their offenses are negated or even necessarily compromised against their opponents' flurries, which each will attempt to seek/pursue against the other in this bout.
Thompson side steps well as his opponents move in to issue punches of his own or angle in with an uppercut; whereas, Ross does an excellent job of turning his opponent with his movement, especially against fighters who come forward, and creates and finds openings for his strikes. At Lion Fight 15 Ross showcased the zenith of his abilities opposite fellow American Chris Mauceri, executing this approach flawlessly and using Mauceri's persistence after Ross opened a nasty cut on his forehead in the first round to his detriment.
The trouble Thompson poses for Ross is the same he poses for everyone, and it is pressure managed by an acute fight intelligence, speed, plus heavy elbows and punches. To defeat Thompson Ross will have to replicate the movement he featured in his previous outing, and not enable Thompson to stay in front of him or stop his movement, either, with his left body to right head combination. He lost to Tetsuya Yamato at Lion Fight 11 in part due to remaining stationary, giving up elbows up the middle, and keeping his right hand down.
If something is working he also needs to stay with it and feint it to set up other offense. Yamato could not stop Ross' left body kick and he would forget about it. Pinpointing advantages, both before and during the fight, are paramount, and in my opinion Thompson's greatest leverage aside from his power. Ross wavers. Versus Pornsansae Sitmonchai at Caged Muay Thai 2, Thompson made a quick adjustment from throwing primarily hook punches to upper cuts and knees up the middle.
The change precipitated Thompson taking over the fight, throttling him, and then knocking him down in the second round, before tiring in the middle of the third and Sitmonchai landing a few shots to close it. This is an area Ross has the chance to exploit. Unless he is swept in the first three rounds or gets knocked out, Ross should find opportunities in the fourth and fifth when Thompson fades and maybe take a decision. I don't see him finishing Thompson.
My expectation is Michael Thompson wins, complimentary of a fourth round KO. Ross has the temerity to endure Thompsons' onslaught and interchange it with his own, but I don't anticipate that it is going to be enough tomorrow night in Las Vegas.
Though the actual result might turn out to be irrelevant, for it is not what raised you to your feet. It was everything before, and there will be a lot before, perhaps enough to be subsequently called Fight of the Year.

Tazewell, VA
The house was slowly yet steadily being undermined. More and more of the foundation was exposed as the excavation proceeded. The team of demolition experts was hitting the exposed foundation with hammers. Each blow created cracks in the foundation. These cracks steadily crawled up the walls. However, the occupants of the house lauded the progress that was being made by their wisdom and broadmindedness. The mantra that they had sung for years grew louder as more and more elders joined them. "Diversity is our strength," they sang as they honored the very men who were gradually destroying the very foundations upon which the house rested. They rejected any warnings that the course they were on spelled disaster for the house and those in it. "We need to be charitable rather than criticize these men who are so broad minded. We personally don't see the issues the way they do, yet we certainly don't want to offend them by asking them to adhere to our own personal interpretation of Scripture. After all we are one big happy family. We don't want to be so parochial as to "bind anyone's conscience" or exclude anyone who says they love Jesus." (more…)

The LiverKick.com GLORY 15 Preview and Predictions
- Written by Dave Walsh
Tomorrow in Istanbul, Turkey, GLORY will present GLORY 15 Istanbul. GLORY 15 is slated to feature the GLORY Light Heavyweight Championship tournament, featuring Tyrone Spong, Saulo Cavalari, Gokhan Saki and Nathan Corbett. The winner will walk away as the first GLORY Light Heavyweight Champion, which is a huge, huge deal. So let's run through the card.
Gokhan Saki vs. Nathan Corbett
This fight is nearly impossible to pick. There are a few factors that come into play in this fight that not only make it one of the best fights on the card, but the most difficult fight to pick. For both men they are coming off of losses at GLORY 11, but of course, Gokhan Saki was expected to win the GLORY 11 Heavyweight tournament, only to lose to Rico Verhoeven. Corbett, on the other hand, lost to Tyrone Spong in one of the biggest rematches in Kickboxing history.
So what we have here is Gokhan Saki making the cut to Light Heavyweight for the first time against Nathan Corbett in his second GLORY appearance after a beating from Tyrone Spong. Nathan Corbett has been top of the food chain at 95kg in Muay Thai for a long time now, but Kickboxing has never been his strength. That being said, he's still very, very dangerous in the ring. He did look a bit undersized in the ring with Spong, which makes me think that he could possibly go down to Middleweight if he continues seeing problems at Light Heavyweight, but he'd rather just stay in Australia and be the king there at 95kg, probably.
Saki is going into this full of pride and high expectations, but still having to prove himself after the loss to Rico Verhoeven. Was it a "fluke" loss like he claims, or is he starting to slow down? This is the first time that he's had to drop in weight like this, which can have an affect on a fighter, both mentally and physically. The fact remains, though, that Saki was a small Heavyweight and was a force to be reckoned with. Look no further than his last fight with Daniel Ghita to see what he can bring to the table.
If I'm forced to pick a winner I'll have to go with Saki, but if anyone was going to be the underdog to take the whole tournament, my pick would be on Corbett. Everyone is giving him no chance, which is just silly.
Tyrone Spong vs. Saulo Cavalari
Man, I feel like fans expect this to be another demolition job by Tyrone Spong. You know what? It very well could be. Tyrone Spong is powerful, skilled and smart in the ring, which makes for a deadly combination. But then there is Saulo Cavalari. Saulo has cut his teeth in Brazil and has proven to be young, hungry and packing a serious punch.
When it comes to Saulo Cavalari he is still a bit of an unknown factor when it comes to facing elite talent. His two fights in GLORY thus far have been against Filip Verlinden and Mourad Bouzidi, two talented fighters, but two fighters who have found themselves out of reach when it comes to being called elite. This is the ultimate test for Saulo and a huge step up in competition for him. This is either where he breaks or keeps it together and proves himself.
For Spong this is, as he said, just another fight. The thing is, Tyrone Spong is human. We've learned that in a few different ways now, the first being in the ring. Michael Duut was able to drop Tyrone Spong at GLORY 9, which showed us that he's human and can be dropped. Then there was the crushing losses of two people close to him earlier this year.Tyrone Spong is human, guys. On the other side of the coin, he's scary talented, scary powerful and his fight IQ is off-the-charts. Tyrone Spong is the real deal.
This fight seems like it is easy to pick, but the reality is that Saulo hits hard and is a pretty skilled guy. If he can slip something through Tyrone's defenses there is a very real chance of him putting Spong onto his back. The only problem is keeping him there. Tyrone Spong should walk away from this fight with his hand raised, but stranger things have happened in GLORY tournaments, right?
Danyo Ilunga vs. Andrei Stoica
It is my professional opinion that Danyo Ilunga, the former It's Showtime 95kg Champion, belongs in the equation when you are talking GLORY's Light Heavyweight division. Hell, he was a Finalist in the GLORY 9 Light Heavyweight tournament! That being said, booking decisions are booking decisions and hopefully he gets the first crack at the winner of the tournament if he wins here. Andrei Stoica makes his GLORY debut here and, well, the stakes couldn't be higher for Stoica in this fight, on a night where the best Light Heavyweights in the world are featured and he is getting a prime spot against a former Champion.
Danyo Ilunga is a frustrating fighter sometimes. Just super frustrating. When we saw Danyo Ilunga first start working with Remy Bonjasky we saw the somewhat messy Ilunga turned into an air-tight technician. I mean, the guy looked incredible. We've seen glimpses of that in his fights since then, but things tend to degrade pretty quickly when he gets into trouble. Ilunga has the ability to be one of the best Light Heavyweights in the world if he can keep his stuff together. A win here should get him a title shot, but who knows?
For Andrei Stoica, how do I put this? This fight will either make Andrei Stoica a star or break him and send him back to Romania for the rest of his career. Andrei Stoica is a skilled fighter, no doubt, but many believe that Stoica has been heavily protected by his promotion/management in SuperKombat. I've had Romanian fans for years telling me how amazing Andrei Stoica is and now is his time to prove it. His track record outside of SuperKombat events has not been stellar, so now is his time to shine. There is just no other choice if he wants to be taken seriously.
This is Danyo Ilunga's fight to lose, so I see him taking the win, but Stoica indeed has a good shot.
Robin van Roosmalen vs. Marat Grigorian
Lots of fans are viewing this as a one-sided affair leaning heavily towards Robin van Roosmalen, but honestly, those fans aren't looking at the bigger picture. Robin van Roosmalen is absolutely one of the top 70kg fighters in the world, yes, but Marat Grigorian is a force in his own right. Marat Grigorian is only 22 years old and has already shown that he's not only a competent fighter, but a great one at that.
Robin's style is a crazy brawling one that can at times be completely controlled, at other times it can be a bit reckless. Grigorian is a very well-composed fighter for his age and I think will surprise a lot of fans when he steps into the ring with van Roosmalen. Do I pick Marat to win against Robin? I'm not sure I'm ready to go that far, no, but it is entirely possible.
GLORY 15 Light Heavyweight Tournament Finals
If things play out perfectly we end up with Tyrone Spong vs. Gokhan Saki II in the finals, which would be tremendous. As we know, the last time that they met in the ring Saki was able to stop Spong and walk away with the victory. But, if we've seen anything in the past year, we've seen that Tyrone Spong is a better fighter and a more mature person than he was in the past. He's done a lot of growing up over the years and I think would not only be ready for this rematch, but would welcome the challenge.
Part of Saki's success against Heavyweights has been his superior speed and ability to piece together combinations. At Heavyweight that is a very special skill, at Light Heavyweight it is commonplace. So take Saki's one great strength and put him against a guy who is stronger than him and possibly as fast? I'm not sure how Saki will react to that. Saki has power, no doubt, but it tends to come in volume as opposed to in one shot. I'm just not sure that Spong will find himself in a position where Saki is landing 10 clean shots on him to knock him down. Comparatively, Spong has the ability to drop someone with one punch and put them out for good -- and that was at Heavyweight -- making him a deadly match for Saki. Don't believe me? Watch Saki vs. Badr Hari. Hari is not known for his combos and was able to knock Saki down when he found a gap to land a clean shot.
I see Tyrone Spong walking away as the GLORY Light Heavyweight Champion.
