Russell Cave
National Monument
Thousands of years ago nomadic bands of Indians, hunting in the vicinity, stumbled upon Russell Cave in the hill country of northern Alabama. We know little about them except that they were few in number, probably less than 15 or 20, and that the only durable possessions they carried with them were a handful of chipped flint points with which they tipped their short hunting spears. These few possessions were found 12 feet below the present floor of the cave.
This evidence, supported by charcoal from their campfires, tells us that about 9,000 years ago, long before the rise of the first true civilizations of Egypt and the Near East, these Archaic Period Indians first began to occupy Russell Cave. They lived there only during the autumn and winter seasons, maintaining their primitive existence by hunting game and gathering wild plants. Agriculture was probably known, but little used by the Indians of the Archaic Period.
The cave was a great boon to these Indians because it provided ready protection from the elements. This freed them from the need to build a shelter in the forest and gave them more time to find food. Successive bands of hunters with their women and children took shelter in this cave until A.D. 1000. The records of their seasonal occupations, including several burials of adults and children, have been uncovered by archeological digs. The charcoal from their fires, the bones of the animals they ate, the tools they fashioned from animal bones, their spear and arrow points, and their broken pottery had accumulated layer upon layer as the years, the thousands of years, passed.
When the last occupants departed, a thousand years after the birth of Christ, Russell Cave held beneath its surface the record of at least 9,000 years of human life upon this continent.
The first of these relics were not discovered until 1953 when four members of the Tennessee Archeological Society began digging in the cave. As they dug deeper, they realized that the importance of their find demanded more intensive efforts than they could give. They then discussed their discovery with the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., which conducted three seasons of archeological explorations in close cooperation with the National Geographic Society. Further excavations were carried out in 1962 by the National Park Service. From all this work has come our knowledge of the Indian occupations of Russell Cave.
About 9,000 years ago, some 4,000 years before the Egyptians built their Great Pyramid, the first Indians made campfires in Russell Cave. They could not have lived there earlier, because a stream of water filled the whole cavern until a great rockfall from the roof shunted the stream to one side and raised the floor of the cave well above its waters.
The first party of cave dwellers camped on the irregular floor of rock slabs. Archeologists have been able to date the arrival of these people at some time between 6550 and 6145 B.C. by measuring the radioactive carbon remaining in the charcoal of their fires. Russell Cave was a seasonal haven for these early forest-dwelling Indians. They survived by hunting and gathering wild plants in the great hardwood forests of the region. After they had depleted the supply of animals and edible plants in one area, they would move on to another section of the forest.
Probably a number of related families used the cave as a place of shelter and safety mostly in the autumn and winter. The relative warmth of the cave probably prevented the stream from freezing and thus they had a constant supply of water. The forest bore a rich crop of nuts that must have been an important source of food during the worst winter months when game in this mountain-valley country was scarce. In spring and summer, small bands - several families - probably camped along the shore of the Tennessee River only a few miles from the cave. Fish, birds, and small mammals could be obtained in the river environment.
Studies in historical geology and paleobotany have shown that the plant and animal life of the Eastern Forest Region remained virtually unchanged for thousands of years, until European settlers felled the trees for lumber and opened up extensive acreages for subsistence and commercial farming.
ARCHAIC PERIOD (7000 to 1000 B.C.)
The groups of Indians who stayed at Russell Cave from 7000 to 1000 B.C. continued to live by hunting and gathering wild plants. Deer was most commonly hunted, but turkey was also a favorite and easier to kill. Other quarry were squirrel, raccoon, rabbit, gray fox, skunk, and bobcat. Porcupine bones, no longer found this far south, appear in the digs at the earliest occupational levels. Turtles, fish, and shellfish also were eaten.
These early cave dwellers wasted very little of their game. Flesh was roasted, or stewed in containers of bark or skin. Water was heated by dropping hot rocks into it. Hides were made into clothes for protection from rain, snow, and cold. Bones were made into tools of several kinds.
During the autumn and winter, when the cave was occupied, plant foods such as fruits and berries were scarce or unavailable. Nuts and seeds became the staple fare.
A short spear, tipped with a stone point and propelled by an atlatl, or throwing stick, was the chief weapon of these hunters. They chipped the points from chert, which occurs as hard nodules and veins in the limestone near the cave. The many chips dug up indicates that the Indian men fashioned the sharp, hard projectile points in the cave.
The few tools they used reflect the limited needs of these people and the necessity for their household goods to be portable. The men chipped the sharp, flinty stone chert into scrapers and knives. They turned bones into awls and needles, which suggests they worked hides into items of clothing. They also made pieces of bone into fishhooks. No ornaments have been found in these deposits.
The Indians probably made other articles that the soil has not preserved. Basketry and items of wood and hide have long since disappeared. One piece of evidence pointing to the use of perishable material was the discovery of impressions of cane matting on a clay "floor" deep in the Archaic deposits.
Occasionally the Indians buried members of their family inside the cave. Several burials of adults and children have been found in shallow pits scooped out of the cave floor. No artifacts were found with these burials.
Some scraps of evidence hint that during the last 3,000 years of this long Archaic Period, when the cave may have been less frequently occupied, these Indians of the Tennessee Valley relied on the food resources of the river for their chief source of sustenance. But in most other respects, the Russell Cave Indians maintained the same way of life unchanged.
WOODLAND PERIOD (1000 B.C. to A.D. 600)
Archeological excavations reveal that, beginning about 1000 B.C., the implements of the Indians using Russell Cave underwent a dramatic change. Pottery appears for the first time, and in quantity. Smaller weapon points suggest that the bow and arrow had replaced the earlier throwing stick. Bone tools were more finely finished, and there was a variety of bone and shell ornaments.
These changes, widespread at this time among the Indian groups of the eastern United States, mark the beginning of the Woodland Period of Indian culture. It was during this period that burial mounds were first built, population increased, and trade of numerous items became important.
The richer and more complex lifestyles indicate that the Woodland Period Indians had more time for activities not directly concerned with staying alive. Probably a stable and more abundant economy based on agriculture supported their culture. The mounds are also a sign that the Indians in the region of Russell Cave had increased in numbers and that their culture had matured to the point of having political and religious institutions. These must have been well developed and in strong control of the people - sufficient control to keep them at work for long periods building the mounds.
In this period small groups of Indians used Russell Cave only as a winter hunting camp. When they left the cave in the spring they probably joined other groups at a summer village that was larger than those of the Archaic Period.
The basis for cultural subdivisions within the Wood land Period are the changes in the shape and style of artifacts at Russell Cave. For example,the early pottery of this period has surfaces decorated with fabric impressions. The later pottery is decorated with impressions made by wooden paddles that were carved into a variety of designs. The shapes of arrowpoints also changed during the period.
MISSISSIPPIAN PERIOD (after A. D. 500)
From archeological evidence we know that shortly after the close of the Woodland Period (A.D. 500) Indians made less and less use of Russell Cave. Occasionally small parties, probably hunters, left a scattering of objects that differed from those of the Woodland Period occupants. They came from permanent villages built near the rich river bottomlands, and their fields yielded bountiful crops of corn and other plants. They were the Mound Builders of the Mississippi Period.
Centuries later, the Cherokee Indians occupied this part of the Tennessee Valley. They, and the European settlers who followed them, made little use of the cave. The few objects they left were found very close to the surface.

IT WAS a cold wintry afternoon and the white snow clouds were lying low and heavy. Undine, after many almost sleepless nights, crept down to the little parlour and had a fire made there, the first that had been made since Cousin Jonathan left.
Miss Mell, now her friend was getting better, had offered to come and sit up with her; and Undine, as she nestled down in the great armchair, looked forward to a long evening of drowsy rest. Prince lay sleeping before her with his head at her feet, and she, half dozing, watched the little sparks as they fluttered up the chimney. So short, so warm, so bright; how pleasant the life of a spark must be!
"You seem to find something very absorbing in the contemplation of the fire this evening," said a voice beside her; and Prince, wide awake in an instant, leaped up to greet his master.
"You quite startled me," she said. "I did not think you would come tonight; it is getting almost dark."
"Yes; we have the promise of a heavy fall of page: 136 snow," he said, as he seated himself in an armchair on the other side of the fire.
"You can have no idea what a charming picture this room makes, coming in from the cold outside," he continued, trying at the same time to repulse Prince, who in a transport of joy had put a paw on each shoulder.
"You must take him home with you tonight," said Undine. "I am not going to be so cruel as to keep him here any longer; and you must miss him."
"No, I never miss him. You had better keep him if he is any pleasure to you," answered the Piece-of-perfection, stretching out one delicate white hand to the dancing flame.
After a short silence he said, "Do you never wish to return to Africa?"
"No," she replied. "I know no one there. My stepfather has remarried. But I should like to see the old farm and my little monkey's grave again."
He was leaning back now with his face in the shadow; she could not see the lines she dreaded at the corners of his mouth, so she answered, "Yes, he was the best friend I had."
Another pause followed; then he said, more abruptly than was his wont, "I have a favour to ask of you, Miss Bock.
"You rather puzzle me," he said. "I never feel sure I understand you, and I do most men. At times I form an opinion of you, at times another, but page: 137 I never feel sure that I am right. I wish you could satisfy my curiosity and explain to me how it is you come to have such extraordinary views and manners."
"Why do you not put some other word in the place of 'extraordinary'—say, 'pernicious,' 'reprehensible'? That is what you really think," she replied, using a freer speech with him than ever before, for in the firelight the bands of speech are loosed and the tongues of men and women do wonders.
He never paid her compliments or spoke to her as he would to another woman, so he answered quietly, "Those words would be almost too strong; say, unwomanly."
Another making this remark would have been answered by a contemptuous silence; or at best she would have launched out into a denunciation of that singular injustice which cramps and dwarfs a woman's mind, making it an unpardonable offence against her womanhood to entertain a thought or give utterance to an idea that has not been repeated and reëchoed till it is as stale and unpalatable as a last year's loaf. Tonight she only said: "Why are they unwomanly? What is your idea of what a woman ought to be?"
"You are asking me a question hard to answer," he replied, looking with his half-closed eyes into the fire. "A woman to be womanly should have nothing striking or peculiar about her; she should page: 138 shun all extremes in manners and modes of expression; she should have no strong views on any question, especially when they differ from those of her surroundings; she should not be too reserved in her manners, and still less too affable and undignified. There is between all extremes a happy mediate, and there a woman should always be found. Men may turn to one side or the other; woman never must."
Undine said nothing when he ended. She could not help it; she had been born with strong and determined ideas on every subject, sub- and superlunar, and not one step of her sixteen years' journey had she walked in the happy mediate road. It was too late to change now. They had told her that the day would come when she would repent having done nothing to try to conform herself, at least outwardly, to the views of others; and she did repent it as she sat there that evening. She would have parted with all that was highest and best in herself to become a little less Undine, a little more like anyone else. Who was this man, what was he, that he should make her grovel so? she asked herself.
"You have not yet answered me," said the Piece-of-perfection, again stretching out his delicate hands to the blaze. "Are you going to satisfy my curiosity?"
It seemed so strangely delightful to do something at his request, and yet she seemed to have nothing to tell, nothing that she could tell him; and she said so.page: 139
"Nothing! And you have lived for sixteen years and in two continents, and certainly are not troubled with lack of ideas. You must excuse me, however. I have no right to press you in this way."
Undine sat leaning forward with her arms folded on her knees, looking into the bright flame that threw its light full upon her, and began, awkwardly and stupidly enough at first, to tell of the old African days—awkwardly and stupidly enough till she forgot the presence of the man who was leaning back in the shade on the other side of the fire and watching her with his cold blue eyes. Then she saw only Socrates and her governess, and the little Dutch girls, and the old red farmhouse in the Karoo—saw the little round-stone koppies, with their milk bushes and red sand, and was again the little child among them all, with the child's thoughts and longings.
Albert Blair sat and listened without the shade of a sneer upon his lips.
Most men have their moments of insanity, which belie and are at variance with all the days and years of the past and will find no successor in the future, moments when their thoughts and feelings are opposed to all they have ever deemed rational, right or possible.
Such moments came for the first time and the last to the Piece-of-perfection as he sat listening to Undine in the firelight.page: 140
A pity, nay, a passionate sympathy, filled his heart for her; for one moment he forgot that the soul which troubled itself further than to find and eat the bread and honey of this life was the soul of a fool—forgot that the only right of a woman is the right of the rose—to smile and be, not to think and live.
Forgetting all this, bewitched, befooled, infatuated, he stretched out his hand to the little figure opposite him.
"Your life has been lonely; no one has understood you; you may have had no one to guide you," he said, speaking for the first time and in a voice strangely sweet and unlike his own. "Will you let me be your friend and take care of you?"
She sat and looked at him as one in a dream.
"Come to me, darling," he said, holding out his hand to her.
Still she sat and looked at him; then he drew her softly to his arms, and she nestled close to him.
She did not kiss him or speak: only clung to him and rested with her arms round his neck and her head on his shoulder.
If she lay there hours or moments, she did not know; it was enough to be there.
"Why do you lie so quietly, darling? Why do you not tell me that you love me?" he said, turning her face round to his.page: 141
It seemed to break her rest, and she only answered him by putting her hand softly on his cheek.
"Are you not going to kiss me, my little girl?" he asked again, lightly bringing his lips down to hers and kissing them.
She kissed him and then buried her face in his shoulder.
"Did you ever care about anyone before you loved me? Did you, darling?" he asked her, running his fingers through her hair.
What was the past? What was the future? The present was enough. She answered, "No."
"You could talk so well a little time ago, and now you can hardly get out one little 'no'. Tell me that you love me, my little girl."
"I love you more than anything, more than everything," she said, holding his face between her two hands and putting her cheek softly against his; then she nestled close to him again.
"Are you happy now?"
"How astonished everyone will be when they hear who is to be my little wife," said the Piece-of-perfection as he thought with infinite satisfaction of the discomfiture of his father and brother, also of Lady Edith and others of his worshippers. How would she look among them all? Beautiful? His wife must shine and eclipse all women. Men must envy page: 142 him his wife, as they did his dogs and his horses. Would it be so with this little girl?
"Undine, I want you to do something for me," he said, after a long pause. "I know you will do whatever I tell you. Will you not?"
"Yes," she said, creeping very close to him.
"You must not spend so much time over your books as you have done. I would rather you left them alone altogether. You must give two or three hours a day to your music, and learn dancing. I want my wife to be deficient in nothing. Do you hear?"
It was the cold Piece-of-perfection with the half-closed eyes that spoke these words, not the lover of half an hour ago, and they struck Undine a little chill; but she only whispered in his ear that she would do all he told her.
"Why do you tremble so, my little darling?" he said, as he stood her down on the hearth rug. "I must go now, but I will come again early tomorrow. How cold your little hands are. Warm them by the fire and then go to bed. Now you belong to me, I don't want you to have dark rings round your eyes, as though you had sat up all night. My wife must be always bright and beautiful, you know. Good-night, darling." So he left her.
Undine kneeled down before the low window and drew back the blind to watch him as he passed down the garden path.page: 143
The snow had fallen, the clouds had gone, and the full moon poured down her light on a white glittering world—so white, so pure, so calm. Even the iron paling had its coat of crystal, and the dark evergreens that grew beside the window were bent beneath their load. As far as the eye could reach stretched the silent white snow; only down the little garden path there were his footmarks in it.

I ordered a jersey for my daughter for Christmas. I used the size chart to order the right size, but the jersey arrived too small. If you are busty do not trust the size chart. Another thing that was disappointing was that there was pen marks on one of the jersey's white numbers. It looked like someone accidentally ran their pen down the jersey. I returned the jersey. I am going to order my daughter a men's jersey instead. On a side note.. your website won't let me put #21's name (Clinton-Dix) in the "create-your-own" jersey option. He's her favorite player.
I received a Men's small instead of women's small. I posted a pic of the 'custom' Feliciano #76 jersey & a pic of my other Small women's jersey on top of the 'custom' jersey. Clearly it's a Men's 'custom' jersey. Plus, I Had to wait 15 days for Feliciano #76 'custom' jersey.
I bought my wife her first personalized jersey and I was very disappointed. I received the jersey and noticed the letters and numbers are stick on. There are no embroidery around the letters and numbers. I don't know if it's just the Nike product or the NFL brand quality. My wife bought me a personalized jersey years ago and at the time it was Reebok branding with the NFL. The quality is outstanding even the lettering and numbers are cloth type material with embroidery around it. The Nike jersey material is good, but again it actually looks like NFL took an on the field jersey and stuck on your faveriote number and your last name. I will see how long the jersey will last. Note: you can not return the jersey.
Love it!
The wife always likes getting jerseys, but she pretty much has all the main New York Giants jersey. So I made a custom one that she will wear more than the others. Product came just like I envision it would and would get another one if I had too. Thank you.
The jersey came out amazing! I will wear it during and after the session.
Ny expectations were over exceeded.
Fit was perfect
Ordered a medium for my daughter in law who is a small-medium. The shirt looks like it is for a child. Next time I would order a size or two bigger than the recipient usually wears,
all good

WOW...I had a strange feeling (the force? ) to stop at a certain TRU today on my way home and found ALL the new figures...every single one. They opened 3 cases, so I got one of each...they still have plenty. [Padme secret ceremony, coleman trebor, wat tambor, etc.] The TRU is the Rolling Acres TRU in Akron, on Romig Rd., hurry and get what you can before a dealer takes them all. Good luck.
PS- If anyone finds the jedi army or clone army packs in stores, pass the word along. Thanks.

Hyundai, Kia Busted for Overstating Fuel Economy Claims after EPA Probe

Hyundai Elantra
Revised Numbers from Hyundai
(Source: Hyundai)
Millions to be paid out to owners over misleading claims
Back in December of 2011,
Consumer Watchdog
called on the EPA to investigate Hyundai over its fuel economy claims. According to Consumer Watchdog, Hyundai claimed that its Elantra was good for 29 mpg in the city and 40 mpg on highway. The problem the organization had with the claims is that it received a higher than usual number of complaints that real-world mileage was in the mid-20 mpg range.
The EPA did investigate Hyundai for misleading mileage claims as well as Kia, and changes in fuel economy estimates are coming as a result of the investigation. Both Kia and Hyundai will be lowering the fuel economy estimates on the majority of their 2012 to 2013 models after EPA testing discovered discrepancies between its data and the company's data.
Hyundai and Kia admitted to overstating the estimated fuel economy on window stickers of about 900,000 vehicles sold since late 2010. The two automakers will reportedly spend millions of dollars to compensate owners for faulty claims of economy.
Hyundai will also have to retract its widely used claim that it leads the industry with four vehicle models able to get 40 mpg on the highway. That statement will be retracted because estimated highway economy on the 2013 Accent, Veloster, and Elantra are being reduced to below 40 mpg.
Some of the biggest losers include the Hyundai Accent and the all-new, redesigned 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe. The Accent saw its 30/40/33 (city/highway/combined) rating drop to 28/37/31. The Santa Fe Sport (2WD) saw a huge drop in its highway rating, going from 21/31/25 (city/highway/combined) to 20/27/23.
Many of the mileage adjustments take Hyundai models from being class leaders to either middle-of-the-pack or lower.
On the Kia side of things, the Soul took the biggest hit as it saw its highway numbers drop by 6 mpg (35 mpg highway to 29 mpg highway).
Overstating fuel efficiency is a significant blunder by the two car companies because gas prices are up, and many people are shopping based on fuel economy claims by the manufacturer. The EPA notes that window sticker values have previously been reduced on only two vehicles sense 2000, so that makes Hyundai's folly even more egregious.
"Given the importance of fuel efficiency to all of us, we're extremely sorry about these errors," said Hyundai Motor America President and CEO John Krafcik. "We're going to make this right."
Krafcik blamed the inaccurate fuel efficiency claims on "procedural errors" in the fuel-economy testing methodology the company used. Hyundai-Kia's combined fleetwide fuel economy average declined from 27 MPG to 26 mpg for the 2012 model year working out to about a 3% reduction.
Krafcik added, "We've identified the source of the discrepancies between our prior testing method and the EPA's recommended approach."

Had just started doing a little fact checking on UB's most recent thread and came across this. This aught to raise the hair on the back of your necks:
One of the most controversial events in the history of the Firearms Acts occurred in 1972. The "Troubles" in Northern Ireland (19701998) were becoming a security concern for the Irish Government at the time, and in 1972 a Temporary Custody Order (S.I. No. 187/1972 Firearms (Temporary Custody) Order, 1972)[42] was issued for all privately-held pistols and all rifles over .22 calibre to be surrendered to local Garda (police) stations by 5 August 1972, for a period of one month. This order was complied with, but when firearms owners returned to reclaim their firearms, they were informed that their licences had expired while their firearms were in custody (Irish firearms licences until 2008 were issued for a period of one year, and all licences were usually dealt with at the same time, usually at the start of August, though the date has changed over the years). Since the firearms were no longer licenced, they could not be returned until a new licence was issued; upon seeking a renewal of their licences, applicants were informed that a new Garda policy was in place that would refuse licence applications for all pistols and all firearms over .22 in calibre. As such, the firearms in Garda custody remained in Garda custody.


text: Could Yoga Be an Athlete's Fountain of Youth? By Megan Senger What do basketball superstar LeBron James, tennis champion Andy Murray and all the NFL players of the Seattle Seahawks have in common? They all recover from their elite workouts with the same ancient technique: yoga. Now fitness clients-turned-yoga-participants are following in their footsteps. Many say they also recuperate faster and feel better when incorporating this popular mind-body discipline into their exercise planning, especially as they approach and pass through middle age. Some even speculate that yoga could also be the key to avoiding those typical aches and pains commonly associated with aging, even among those who have remained active and fit all their lives. Here's what you need to know to help your clients do the same. Recovery Defined In fitness terms, recovery refers to the physical adaptations that take place in the hours or days between challenging workouts. Also called rest days, these recuperative periods allow your client's body to physically adapt to the work he or she has done. Without muscular downtime, you can't get fitter. Yet today's exercise enthusiast is bombarded with an increasing frequency of super-high-intensity exercise options: think CrossFit, P90X, Insanity and an array of HIIT- and Tabata-inspired boot camp classes at the gym. So what's a good counterbalance? Increasing numbers of both professional and amateur exercisers are turning to yoga to restore themselves between other sport and sweat sessions. Even Tony Horton's best-selling "extreme" fitness DVD series, P90X, has an accompanying yoga program, "Yoga X." Here's why. The Benefits of Yogic Recovery "My students often say they wish they'd found yoga earlier in their sports careers, because it helps them feel balanced and fresh and ready for their next training sessions," reports Sage Rountree, Ph.D., author of The Athlete's Guide to Yoga (Velo Press, 2008) and an endurance sports coach specializing in athletic recovery. Can an Athlete Become Too Flexible? Should certain athletes avoid yoga for fear of becoming overly flexible? Our experts argue no. "There is such a thing as hyperflexibility or hypermobility. However, yoga does not cause this condition," says Bender Birch. "If a person were hyperflexible and a teacher wasn't trained to see that, then yes, if the student was not made aware of her hypermobility, she might create greater instability." The solution is in the way the client carries out a pose. Rountree says that very flexible people should focus on integration and strength in their yoga practice, rather than expansion and flexibility. "Yoga should develop strength to the same degree as it develops flexibility. It needs to be taught correctly," cautions Bender Birch. What else does this mind-body method offer? It prepares the body to heal. "Strong physical activity stresses our body similar to the 'fight, flight or freeze' response of the autonomic nervous system," says Lori Rubenstein, D.P.T., M.App.Sc., owner of Mosaic Physical Therapy in Los Angeles, Calif., and an associate director at Loyola Marymount University's Yoga Therapy program. "Yoga has been proven to 're-set' the autonomic nervous system to a more parasympathetic (relaxed) state, which is what is needed for the body to heal and recover," she explains. It offers a sense of achievement. Serious fitness fiends may find it difficult to stop moving and just rest. Providing an active recovery option, such as yoga at an appropriate intensity, can assuage an athlete's psychological desire to keep training yet allow the body to rebuild, says Rountree, who also teaches yoga classes in Chapel Hill, N.C. It restores mental and psychological focus. "There is plenty to yoga beyond the physical," says Rountree. She explains that yoga also includes non-physical techniques such as breath and meditation exercises, which can boost recovery and improve an athlete's performance-enhancing powers of concentration. "Yoga is not 'just exercise,'" agrees Rubenstein. "The magic of yoga is in what we call the 'yoga lifestyle.' It's how we [carry out] our lives, our thoughts, our interactions with others and with our surroundings." Read more about the non-exercise aspects of yogic philosophy here. To help your clients experience yoga's recovery-related benefits, consider the following factors. Intensity Impacts Recovery Research indicates that active recovery (movement performed at a reduced intensity and volume of loading, relative to a normal workout) is superior to passive recovery (doing nothing). Science also tells us that exercising at a moderate heart-rate intensity (65 to 75% of maximal heart rate) is sufficient for active recovery. Yet science also tells us that how quickly an exercise participant recovers varies greatly among individuals. Rountree has observed this herself. "My work with team sports has taught me that not only should a yoga practice vary according to the sport and time of year, it also depends on the athlete's position, experience and abilities." So if physical replenishment is the goal, the type of yoga practiced by athletes shouldn't necessarily be "athletic yoga," says Rountree. Instead, "the intensity of the yoga [used for recovery] must be in inverse proportion to the intensity of an athlete's training," she says. Different Styles of Yoga Provide Different Benefits Yoga can be performed in a way that applies more training stress to the body, such as vigorous vinyasa (a fast-paced, flowing style of yoga), or by using aggressive deep stretches, Rountree says. "Or, it can be done in a way that calms the nervous system and rests the body. I prefer the latter for athletes who are in serious training," she adds. "If someone tends to be very tight or does a lot of weightlifting I may recommend a Yin yoga class one to two times per week, as these classes focus on slow stretching with deep breathing," says Rubenstein. "If someone has poor body awareness and needs to improve alignment for their sport I may recommend Iyengar classes, as they focus on alignment and typically offer a good balance of strength and stretching." Sample Recovery Poses Having your clients do some stretches after you finish a workout can capitalize on their muscles being warm and can give them a jumpstart on recovery, says Rountree. Here are some starter poses for yoga-based restoration (hold each pose for five to 10 deep breaths, around 20 to 40 seconds): Cat/cow pose with sideways movement (variation of marjariasana/bitilasana) loosens the spine and helps students connect to their breath, says Rountree. How? Start on all fours, with wrists under shoulders and knees under hips. Gently flex (on the exhale) and extend (on the inhale) entire spine, with a slow "wag" of the "tail." Relax the shoulders away from the ears throughout the movement. Supine spinal twist (jathara parivartanasana) twists the spine and stretches hips and shoulders, says Rountree. How? From a supine position, drop the knees to one side, reach the opposite arm away from center and breathe deeply into the midsection. Crescent pose (anjaneyasana) stretches the quadriceps and hip flexors and improves balance. How? Stand as if in a lunge, with the spine lengthened, arms overhead and hips facing forward. Avoid arching the low back excessively and relax the shoulders away from the ears. To reduce the intensity, touch the back knee to the ground, adds Rubenstein. Legs-up-the-wall-pose (viparita karani) soothes the nervous system and offers a light hamstring and chest stretch, explains Rountree. How? Lie supine with the gluteals pressed up against a wall. Extend the backs of the legs comfortably against the wall. Open arms to the sides and breathe deeply into the bottom of the lungs. Reclining cobblers pose (supta baddha konasana) helps release the lower back, groin, hips, chest and adductors, notes Rubenstein. How? Lie supine, with the soles of the feet flat on the floor. Slowly drop the knees open to the sides, soles of feet touching. Supine big toe pose (supta padangustasana) helps lengthen hamstrings, says Rubenstein. How? Lie supine and loop a yoga strap or towel under the sole of the right foot and extend the leg upward until it's perpendicular to the floor. Press the lower leg into the floor, and broaden the collarbones. Repeat on the other side. For an extra challenge, instead of using the strap, hook the first two fingers under the right big toe (advanced practitioners only). Pigeon pose (eka pada rajakapotasana I) deeply opens the hips and groin. How? From an all-fours position, slide the right leg forward and the right knee to the back of the right wrist. Flex the right foot and extend the left leg straight back with a slight inward rotation and lengthen spine. Lean forward onto the arms to modify. Repeat on the opposite side. Note: This pose may not be suitable for exercise novices. And it is not appropriate for clients with knee problems, cautions Rubenstein. (This article offers an in-depth discussion of knee positioning in this pose.) Safety Concerns Further Resources Want more ways to use yoga with your fitness clients? Consider earning the ACE Mind Body Specialist certification or taking a course such as "Yoga for Personal Trainers," offered by ACE's educational partner YogaFit. And for more on integrating yoga into your personal training sessions, check out Yoga for Personal Trainers. The success of any yogic recovery plan depends on correct execution and technique, cautions Beryl Bender Birch, author of the influential classic, Power Yoga. Her tips? Teach carefully. "It's important [that instructors know] how to teach correct alignment" rather than simply expect the client to know how to execute each pose correctly, says Bender Birch, who also served as the wellness director of the New York Road Runners Club in New York city from 1980–2002. Be cautious with athletes. Although it's initially counterintuitive, it's your fittest clients that probably need a gentler approach. Why? "Athletes are tight—training makes you tight," Bender Birch says. And if an athlete doesn't start out slowly in a yoga program, he or she is more likely to become injured than someone who is not as fit and/or tight to begin with. Finally, for best recovery results, don't just dabble in this popular mind-body technique, says Bender Birch. "The idea that one or two or three poses will solve a problem is [counter] to what yoga is all about," she notes. Instead, consider referring clients to classes taught by a qualified yoga specialist. This way, the recovery poses you present in fitness sessions will be that much more powerful. Megan Senger is a writer, speaker and fitness sales consultant based in North Carolina.

Oracle Investment Research's Laurence Balter, who late last year switched from bear to bull on Apple (AAPL) shares, today pounds the table on the stock, reiterating a Strong Buy rating and a $650 price target, writing that both "Elliot Wave Theory" and fibonacci patterns suggest the technicals are favorable for the stock:
Yes, we know it's always dangerous to call the bottom. But since common sense value investing didn't give us a sensible bottom, we look to the beautiful world of 13th century mathematics and modern day technical analysis.
Balter offers the following charts to show the supposed Elliot Wave and fibonacci buying signals (click for larger images):
Balter had cut his rating on Apple to Hold on August 21st, with the stock at $660, before upgrading to Strong Buy in early December.

Gyalwang Karmapa Delivers Inaugural Address to Environmental Section at Global Buddhist Congregation
November 28, 2011- Park Hotel, Delhi
His Holiness the Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje, today delivered the inaugural address at the Global Buddhist Congregation's section on "Environment and the Natural World." Opening the daylong session, the Gyalwang Karmapa addressed a packed hall of hundreds of delegates gathered from 32 countries around the world. The Gyalwang Karmapa will also attend the closing ceremony, which will be presided over by His Holiness the Dalai Lama and joined by a suite of world figures.
During his inaugural address, the Gyalwang Karmapa spoke on the underlying causes that have brought us to what he describes as a 'critical juncture' in the degradation of our natural environment. Among those causes, His Holiness focused on a virtual "religion of consumerism" and a persistent egocentrism that has led to an unhealthy relationship between human beings and their environment.

Sociology, a social science that studies human societies, their interactions, and the processes that preserve and change them. It does this by examining the dynamics of constituent parts of societies such as institutions, communities, populations, and gender, racial, or age groups. Sociology also studies social status or stratification, social movements, and social change, as well as societal disorder in the form of crime, deviance, and revolution.
Social life overwhelmingly regulates the behaviour of humans, largely because humans lack the instincts that guide most animal behaviour. Humans therefore depend on social institutions and organizations to inform their decisions and actions. ... (100 of 9,727 words)

Hate crimes law violates Constitution in two ways
posted at 11:36 am on May 1, 2009 by Ed Morrissey
The House passed sweeping new hate-crimes legislation this week, helped in no small part by a Republican rhetorical fumble during the debate, although the outcome was hardly in doubt. Sponsors named the bill after Matthew Shephard, who was beaten and left to die tied to a fence. Virginia Foxx (R-NC) called the bill a "hoax", and mischaracterized the crime:
This is absurd on two levels. First, the defendants in the case tried using for a "gay panic defense," arguing that Shephard had initiated sexual advances and that they went insane when their masculinity was challenged. The walkback from that led the defendants to claim that the beating was a result of a robbery gone awry and that they had no intention of causing that level of harm. The jury didn't buy either excuse, and both defendants have back-to-back life sentences (one defendant eventually pled guilty and testified against the other).
The second absurdity is that even if one accepted that this particular case involved no animus against gays, undeniably people commit crimes based on that animus as well as a range of others. The animus exists, and can be seen in a variety of criminal and non-criminal acts. The question, which Foxx eclipsed with this sorry performance, is whether we want to start criminalizing thoughts as well as actions.
Until recently, motives only mattered in proving the mens rea of a crime, ie, the desire to commit the crime. Motive matters in murder, for instance; a drunk driver can kill a pedestrian and a person can kill a spouse to collect on the insurance. Both happen with depressing regularity. The difference is that the latter had an explicit desire to kill (for profit) while the other had a depraved indifference to life but no explicit desire to kill, and that's why they get charged with different crimes.
However, we don't differentiate between murder for profit and murder for a particular animus of hate. Doing that creates a subtle but significant change in which the state has suddenly become the arbiter of thought, determining different outcomes based on thought despite the similarity of crime. The First Amendment arguments are obvious, but Jazz Shaw thinks this also violates the Fourteenth as well:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Long story short: When you pass laws which assign greater guilt to certain parties for committing the same crimes, based on nothing more than what they were thinking at the time and the "class" of citizens who were the victims, then you are providing unequal protection of the laws. You are assigning a higher value to the lives, liberty and property of some victims than others based on their sexual orientation, their race, skin color, religion, etc.
That's exactly right — and, in fact, that's the explicit desire of lawmakers. They want to alleviate what they see as a greater degree of victimhood with a greater degree of government correction. Those motives may be understandable, but they're entirely incompatible with equality before the law. Creating classes of victims means creating classes of citizenry. Either we're all the same, or we're just competing for the most politically-correct biases. That's more likely to perpetuate resentment than it is to reduce hatred.
The key to fighting crime is to prosecute aggressively and apply long sentences, especially to violent and repeat offenders, no matter who they are or whom they victimized.
Jazz and I discussed this on his show yesterday. I come in at the half-way mark:

Dave Smith Instruments Evolver
Released in 2002, Evolver is the first instrument to come from Dave Smith Instruments. Dave Smith is considered a legendary figure in the synthesizer world, he founded Sequential Circuits and designed such classics as the Prophet 5 and Prophet VS, and he was a pioneer in bringing MIDI to synthesizers. After a stint working in Software Synthesis for Seer Systems, Dave collaborated with Roger Linn on the Adrenalinn, and then officially came back to the world of hardware synthesizers. And the world was happy to find him back designing synths for a new generation of players - starting with Evolver!
So, there's no keyboard on this thing! Well, it's a hands-on desktop sound module and audio processor. The Evolver is a true analog synthesizer that incorporates many of Dave and Sequential's old secrets, circuits and technologies. It's monophonic with four oscillators - two analog DCOs and two digital - it's a true analog/digital hybrid synth. The analog oscillators feature multiple classic waveforms plus pulse-width modulation and hard sync, and they sound really nice and big. The digital oscillators feature FM synthesis, Ring Modulation and 96 wavetables straight out of the Prophet VS (plus 32 user wavetables, loaded via MIDI software editors such as Motu Unisyn).
Evolver also features two Curtis voltage-controlled analog low-pass filters which are fully resonant and switchable for two- or four-pole operation, two digital highpass filters and real analog VCAs. Modulation capabilities are handled by four LFOs and three ADSR envelope generators (for the filter, the amp, and one is user assignable). There are dedicated onboard effects (feedback, delay, distortion, glide, etc.). Stereo audio inputs let you process external audio through the Evolver's filters, envelopes, LFOs and effects.
One of its coolest features is the MIDI-syncable 16-step, 4-parameter, analog-style sequencer (with each patch able to store its own sequence) which really brings the Evolver to life with animated evolving sounds. The LFOs, step sequencer, and three separate delays can all be synced for massive, rhythmic, time-based effects in stereo. As for programming and tweaking all these functions, Evolver's easy-to-navigate matrix-style interface allows for quick editing and real-time control of 8 parameters simultaneously.
A major unique feature of the Evolver is that although it is monophonic, it has a true stereo signal path. The reason many things come in multiples of two here is because each channel gets its own independent analog oscillator, lowpass filter, highpass filter, VCA and effects. It's sort of like two independent synths - one on the left and another on the right. This allows for pretty nice stereo imaging effects not possible with most other mono-monophonic synths. Some of the factory patches will make your jaw drop - sometimes it's really hard to believe it has only a single voice!
It's no surprise the Evolver was a hit when it came out. There just are no other modern analog-digital synthesizers in its price range, it sounds wonderful, and is one of those synths that has no real need for external effects or sweetening. Evolver literally is a rebirth of the best of Sequential Circuits, updated to meet the needs of today's musicians. The internal computer and DSP chips can be reprogrammed via MIDI, for easy bug fixes, OS updates and feature additions. Other forms of the Evolver that have evolved: Mono Evolver (a keyboard version), Poly Evolver (a polyphonic keyboard version), and Poly Evolver Rack (a polyphonic rack module).

Pros: Amazing soundstage, extremely comfortable, Outstanding sound quality
Cons: Come with 6.3mm jack plug but you end up using them with 3.5mm adapter most of the time
Note: This is my first audiophile headphones so i can't compare them to any other headphones out there for the same price.
These headphones are well designed, fit your head perfectly and are extremely lightweight. They are made out of plastic but they don't look cheap. They are very solid in my opinion.
You can wear these for a long session and never worry about them.
This is the first reason i decided to buy these.
About the color. You may or may not like it. I love the color combination, they look classy but it's all about personal taste. Since they sound so great you'll forgot about the color soon enough after wearing them.
Second reason, probably the most important, is the sound quality.
I was looking for open headphones. The soundstage you get from that kind of headphones can't be replicated by another. The HD 598 soundstage is amazing. Period.
They sound leak a lot but this is intended and make them sound phenomenal in terms of soundtage. If you plan to use use them for personal listening at home or in a quiet place you shouldn't worry about that. (By the way these are sold for home listening so if you buy them and complain about the sound leak, that's just stupid).
Out of the box they sound good but i noticed an improvement with each hour of listening.
The sound quality in general is amazing and changed the way i enjoy music. These headphones work well with different musical genres. I listen a lot of folk, jazz, blues, funk, rock but i tried almost everything with them (even electronic which is my least favourite genre) and they never failed me.
If i had to describe how they sound i would say "smooth and extremely clear". You can ear every single instruments even when there are tons of instruments.
I love vocals and these headphones make them shine. I almost cried listening to some songs posted in the "best female vocals" in forum music section.
In a word, they are accurate.
Being so precise i noticed the sound source has to be right to enjoy these headphones to their full potential. You can easily spot the difference if a song is not well mastered or comes in poor quality (song's format matters).
An amp is not needed in my opinion but could be useful.
I tried them with my pc and an ipod. They sound different on my ipod and not so great. I wouldn't recommend them if you plan to use them only with an ipod or a dap in general. And you shouldn't as i mentioned early these work wonder if you use them for house listening.
About the lack of bass response someone point out in some reviews. That's not true. The bass is there how he should be. It's not emphatized compared to some headphones out there.
I found almost no cons. My only complain is about the cord: it ends with the larger 6.3mm plug but i use the 3.5mm plug most of the time. However the cord is detachable so you can replace it easily so it's a minor con.
In conclusion, these are quality headphones. Sennheiser quality. You won't regret your purchase and you'll start to enjoy music even more.
I give them 4.5/5 stars even if they are perfect for my needs and they are one of my best purchase ever.
I would strongly recommend them to anyone who want a great pair of headphones without paying much. I look forward to use them everyday.
Note: this is my first review and my english is not so good. Sorry about that. I hope this could be useful to someone. I'll add some pics as soon as possible
