This bundle features 10 of our deep-sampled drum libraries. Purchasers get access to: Apocalypse Percussion Ensemble, Breaker, Cymbology 1 Bowed, Clack!, High School Drum Corps, Little Epic Percussion, Riq Drum, Shake, Dhol Drum and Tablas at a huge discount.
Apocalypse Percussion Ensemble:
This massive collection represents the most powerful and comprehensive epic trailer and scoring percussion library we have ever recorded. Featuring over 40 drums and more than a dozen cymbals of all shapes and sizes, with both ensemble and solo articulations and up to 3 independent microphone positions per articulation, this library is your total solution for epic percussion orchestration. Recorded in a naturally rich and lush spacious A-Frame hall using world class large-diaphragm microphones and pristine ultra-quiet recorders, we carefully mixed and mastered each sample to deliver explosive power, unmatched acoustic quality, wide dynamic range, and stunning life-like clarity and presence.
Breaker is all about the breakbeat, DIY-style. This hi-fi/lo-fi old/new school bastard was born to be broken, bruised, smashed, pumped, slammed, smeared, blown-out and beat to hell. We set out to find the essence of classic versus iconoclastic. We set out to build a big, fat and extremely diverse drum palette that evoked an equal blend of warm, smooth 70′s funk and cold, hard 80s electro and pop. Our aim was to make a drum library that is truly electro-organic: authentic and yet electronic in sound but organically playable, providing the best of both worlds.
These drums are ripe to be chopped, diced, sliced, flipped, trashed, drilled, derezzed, degraded and granulated. It's geared toward hip hop, electro, soul, funk, pop, breakcore, drum n' bass, garage, dub, techno, glitch, 2-step, trip hop, illbient, dub-step, house, and whatever the hell have you. We designed the sound to take digital, tape and tube distortion and FX of all kinds and soak it all right up. The sound is fat, dirty and raw right out of the boombox, but a twist of a knob or two and you've got a searing, brutally crisp sharp jungle kit ready to go.
Clack *:
The theme and purpose of this library is pretty simple. We wanted to capture as much sharp, bright, warm, tonal wooden impact percussion as your heart desires. We captured several bamboo poles, bamboo logs, a whole pile of claves, woodblocks, clappers, box drum, and other assorted wooden implements that epitomize the word "thwack." These elements are specifically ideal auxiliary elements for orchestral composition and epic film/tv/game soundtrack scoring. They also are vital elements in Latin music and hip hop, as well as very useful percussion building-blocks and raw source material for experimental music and IDM.
Cymbology 1 Bowed:
This massive percussion effects library is built around classic bowed cymbals, with extensive detours into other experimental sustaining and short dramatic cymbal effects, custom tuned percussion and ambiences. We captured 20 unique cymbals, in all shapes, sizes, alloys and varieties, from crashes and splashes to gongs, bells, trashes and even a stack of spent WWII Howitzer artillery shells. We explore the classic bowed cymbal effect in exquisite detail. There are dozens of variations for each cymbal, from short stabs to long tortured wails and everything in between. These sought-after dramatic scoring and sound design fundamentals are perfect for setting dark moods, striking bold transitions, building stingers, weaving soundscapes and manipulating in any number of ways to evoke sonic images both dark and light. Recorded in close and far mic positions, this library comes equipped with a powerful custom user interface and deep yet intuitive sound-sculpting functionality.
Marching Drum Corps*:
The Soundiron Drum Corps is a unique library focused on capturing the powerful, tight sound of high school marching drum corps. Notice the tight, harsh, mid-tones and truncated snap of marching drums. It's quite distinct from the solid, pleasing punch and smooth resonance of typical rock and symphonic percussion. Rather, it's meant to be heard loud and clear from a great distance away.
Little Epic Percussion*:
Welcome to Small Epic Percussion. A great collection of small orchestral and ethnic percussion instruments intended both to compliment our existing collection of epic drums. It also stands alone as a unique toolbox of under-appreciated but often called-for items, like the tambourine and finger cymbals. We not only went out of our way to capture these instruments as deeply as we could muster, but tried as much as possible to discover new ways of thinking about and playing them. You may notice some unorthodox articulations included with some of the instruments, as well as a few strange combinations and mutations.
The traditional family of Middle Eastern (Arabic) hand percussion instruments is generally defined as an open shell frame drum with large cymbals or jingles – aka Riq Drums. It is similar in appearance and origin to a tambourine, but this broad family of specialized drums is treated as a very serious and deeply nuanced instrument class in both traditional and modern Middle Eastern, Central Asian and Eastern European music. Rather than simply being an accompaniment or backing instrument, the Rik family of drums can often take a lead or solo role. The jingles, rattles or rings are often played as a discreet component of the drum, along with a broad range of unique head and rim finger and hand articulations.
This deep sampled collection is dedicated to shakers, rattles and bell tree percussion. The fuzzy, buzzy, sandy-sounding "chuff", "shuck" and "jingle" of hand-held shakers and bells is an essential part of orchestral, latin, electronic, hip hop and even rock music.
Solo Dhol Drum*:
Welcome to our Solo Dhol drum library. The Solo Dhol contains over 5.100 samples and +100 different articulations, including sticks, mallets, brushes, hands/fingers, bass bends and so forth. We deep sampled two professional Dhol Drums for this library, each with distinct characteristics. These drums have animal hide bass heads (called "dagga") and maylar treble heads (called "thili"). They dagga sides are tuned with a single heavy nylon rope, wound around the drum through steel rings. The thili heads are tuned with a series of steel lugs and rods, typical of most modern percussion.
Welcome to Soundiron's Complete Tabla library, the most comprehensively sampled Tabla in the history of sampling. This library contains both looped phrases as well as deeply multi-sampled tablas. The tabla is a popular Indian percussion instrument used in the classical, popular and devotional music of the Indian subcontinent and in Hindustani classical music. The instrument consists of a pair of hand drums of contrasting sizes and timbres. To call tabla a mere percussion instrument would be a vast understatement of its musical depth, as one of the most revered of all classical Indian musical instruments. We worked with tabla master and jazz percussionist Sameer Gupta to capture a range of tabla rhythm, melody and soul. Sameer has been a student and practitioner in the art of percussion for nearly 25 years, traveling the world to study and perform in some of the world's most prestigious institutions and venues.

Union County has 188 polling stations and 433 districts across 21 towns. Kobitz has had to scale back the number of polling locations in Union County because of power outages and access problems.
When not worrying about getting polling sites functioning, Kobitz is concerned about how the storm will affect voter turnout, which in turn could ultimately affect election results.
"Not only is this a presidential election, there is a lot of local elections. We have plenty of mayors, council races," Kobitz told CNN on Saturday. "They're (local elections) usually won by a small amount of votes. It's certainly going to make a difference in this election."
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie ordered early voting sites to offer extended hours through the weekend to encourage voters to make it to the polls.
"You don't have to wait to vote," he said. "Got a little time on your hands? Tired of cleaning stuff up? Go there in person, you will get a ballot, you vote, hand it in and you are done."
For those who can't make it to their voting precincts, Christie ordered election officials to allow displaced New Jersey voters to place their ballots electronically by submitting a mail-in ballot application via e-mail or fax. Once approved, the voter will be sent an electronic ballot that can, in turn, be e-mailed or faxed back to the county clerk.
During his rounds, Kobitz passes massive uprooted trees now blocking streets or resting on crushed houses, lines of residents with large red gas cans snake around blocks as they wait their turn at area gas stations, and downed power lines and electrical poles.
The sights spark another concern for Kobitz on Election Day: generators and fuel.
"We can't have a generator running day and night," he said, adding that temperatures are dropping to the 40s. "Some of the poll workers are going to be freezing. But what can you do?"
Up the coast on New York's Long Island, where Sandy also unleashed her wrath, Nassau County officials are scrambling to make sure polling sites are ready for Tuesday.

What appears to be a haze in the trees is really pollen. When a breeze would blow, you could see the pale green particles blow off the trees. At first I thought is was smoke.

With timing undoubtedly influenced by what was to have been the release of the film Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps before its delay to later in the year, May 11 will bring us the release of an updated version of Alan Flusser's 1996 book Style and the Man.
Flusser is a permanent member of the International Best-Dressed List and one of a handful of the most knowledgeable men in the world on all aspects of men's dress. As the book jacket points out, he attracted national attention in 1987 for Michael Douglas's wardrobe in the original Wall Street, a film that did much to recreate public awareness of classic dress after the depredations of the decade that preceeded it.
The original Style and the Man combined how to information about dress with a guide to the finest men's clothing stores in the world. That latter information is gone from the new edition - Flusser pointed out that many of those stores are gone now and have not been replaced. What remains is a slim guide to buying and wearing men's clothes that has been updated to take into account the changes in fit and silhouette that have occurred in the years since its original release.
Like the original, Style and the Man contains chapters on the elements of dress from tailored clothing to neckwear, with information on quality, fit and how to put together successful combinations. It complements Dressing the Man, Flusser's much more comprehensive guide to the same topic, with all the basics at a third of the cost of the larger work. That makes it a perfect graduation gift for young men who will be entering the professions this year as well as a not-quite-small-enough-for-a-pocket guide for their fathers.

Style & the Man, Take Two
23 comments:
- Brandon said...
Will, can you comment on the differences between Clothes & the Man, Dressing the Man, and Style & the Man? I own the former, and wonder whether the others cover much of the same ground or are worth seeking out as well.
- April 29, 2010 at 7:30:00 AM PDT
- Will said...
Clothes and Dressing are similar. Dressing is a bit larger, with more information on color and pattern coordination. Clothes has more elegant touches, like pages of actual shirting samples.
Style is more condensed than either of them. It does not attempt, for example, to discuss all the different options of a man's suit and when they are appropriate. But it does cover fit and quality comprehensively for men who buy ready to wear clothing. - April 29, 2010 at 7:47:00 AM PDT

I'm no expert, but for a tie to appear on me in such a fashion, it would have to mean that I tied it in the car, in rush hour traffic, while on the way to a meeting. It seems to jarring and rushed to have the tail wagging out the bottom
- April 29, 2010 at 7:49:00 AM PDT
- Will said...
Ties are commonly tied that way by men who want to tuck the rear blade into their trousers as well as by those who want to display some (deliberate) carelessness.
- April 29, 2010 at 8:14:00 AM PDT
- seitelman said...
Alan wears his tie in this manner for a simple reason: the tie is too long.
I used to buy his ties, and they were all longs. I found myself doing the same thing. Otherwise, the the tip would end mid-way to the crouch.
Will, does Flusser's new book add anything new? Is it a revision? Or is it an abridgement of his earlier book? - April 29, 2010 at 8:56:00 AM PDT
- Tonyp said...
As Kevin Hickey accurately points out, his tie is improperly tied. I don't buy intentional carlessness as a reason. Also, he has western pockets on his suit and it looks like he is wearing slippers on his feet. I personally have never thought of Alan Flusser as much of a dresser. I think he dresses almost the opposite way of his advice given in his books so he can say he is different or eccentric in his dress. I have the first Style book and will check out the new one. He isn't on any best dressed list that I would find credible.

The break on his trousers is horrible.

- Tim said...
Sorry, Will, but while I enjoyed and learned from Flusser's earlier books, particularly Making The Man, the current version of Mr. Flusser as revealed in his accompanying photo is highly unappealing. Most egregious being his jean-cut hip huggers. There is a point where idiosyncrasy and sprezzatura become simply sloppiness and I'm afraid Mr. Flusser reached that point quite some time ago. It is precisely Mr. Flusser's changes to fit and silhouette that did not need changing.

- vir beātum said...
I have to agree with the other comments here about the picture in question: it's not a particularly edifying look, for a number of reasons (tie, shoes, trouser length and cut, etc.). Still, I'm grateful to you for bringing the book to my attention. I was only 10 when Wall Street came out, and this guide inevitably passed me by. I shall give it a look.

Gentlemen, I must say your tastes are far too staid if you can't appreciate the nonchalance and subtle aggression of the style display put before us in the photo of Alan Flusser. Lets say his pants were pulled up and his tie was set as you expected along with having some proper Oxfords to shod his feet. He would look too matchy matchy. In other words - too studied. He wouldn't be particularly interesting or original except for the windowpane check over what appears to be a glenplaid suit and the particularly arresting pocket square. The detailing such as the ribbon belt, the way he knotted his tie, the cut of his trouser pockets and his dress slippers take the ensemble from simply fitting in a certain preconceived mold into something original and far more intriguing to look at than what you expect him to dress like. Perhaps he has too many elements that stray too far from the dictates of proper formality but you should at least be able to pick one element that you can thieve for yourself to add that dandified air that will carry you forward as a man of style instead of just another suit.

Jacket too long, pants too long, tie too long. Sigh...
- April 29, 2010 at 3:30:00 PM PDT
- Youngin said...
I think the matching blue of the suit, tie, belt and piping of the square is over kill. As others pointed out the tie is up for debate. You hate or loathe it. What's not up for debate, the puddle on the ground that resembles pants with a deep cuff. Flusser take the Gucci's off and walk away, slowly. Azam, nothing redeeming to me.
- April 29, 2010 at 3:44:00 PM PDT
- Laguna Beach Trad said...
In theory his outfit is quite nice. There are a few things I would say I find find objectionable about his suit, but as I have not been asked I will keep mum on the topic.
I will say though, that perhaps, as an acknowledged authority on men's style, he has enough confidence that he thinks he can diverge from the 'rules,' unlike a lot of men.
What does ADG ('Maxminimus' blogger and Flusser client) have to say about this photograph, I wonder?
What I find curious is Will's statement implying that Flusser was responsible for undoing the sartorial damage of the late 1970s and 1980s. Flusser was not alone, as Brooks Brothers, Polo, and the traditional tailers were right there beside him. - April 29, 2010 at 4:59:00 PM PDT
- Azam said...
Good point Youngin. The matching blues are over kill. The pocket square at least should contrast more. The Gucci loafers should indeed be taken off. Don't really like the cut of the three button suit jacket. Feels stiff. Nonetheless, it's worth looking at and interesting ideas here worth noting and potentially taking. Disarticulate the elements and rework for yourself. This photo is far from being the complete wash that you and the other commentators seem to believe.
- April 29, 2010 at 6:24:00 PM PDT
- Brandon said...
It's easy to imagine that the trousers sat a bit higher on the waist at beginning of the day. Braces surely would address that issue, but then he wouldn't be able to wear the belt. While I, too, have little appreciation for his shoes, I recognize that mine is not the only valid opinion. Suffice to say that I would not choose them.
As for the "matchiness" of the tie, belt, and suit, shouldn't one have the option of matching every now and again? If Flusser only presented similar looks, the criticism would be more understandable, but he seems to employ enough variety that he should be judged in the broader context. I, for one, quite like the pocket square in this ensemble. - April 29, 2010 at 7:33:00 PM PDT
- J said...
Except for his theoretical knowledge about clothing and style, can someone explain to me what makes Flusser an authority if he can't dress well himself? Is this like being a coach for a professsional sports team? You used to play (well), you no longer can't, so you attempt to teach others?? Flusser looks absolutely horrible in almost all, if not all pictures I have seen of him. Perhaps he's been around to long that the "fashion" world refuses to realize how abysmal he is currently.
Will, you'd run circles around this guy. - April 29, 2010 at 11:06:00 PM PDT
- The Viceroy said...
I very much appreciate Flusser's books and his contribution to men' awareness of what constitutes classic style. I am still struggling though with the idea that he be considered a particularly well dressed fellow. Not only are there too many elements in the photograph in this post that let me question not only the proper cut of his suit (shoulder width, patch breast pokcet with slanted side pockets, trouser length etc) but also whether he's either simply a sloppy dresser (that would be almost unbelievable, wouldn't it) or seriously overdoing the concept of sprezzatura, which is over- and abused ad nauseam lately anyway in the online style communities. Beyond this particularly unconvincing example, I fail to recall any recent photograph of the man that really made me think: Goodness, this is truly how it should be done.
He has written excellent books but a style icon himself - clearly not. - April 29, 2010 at 11:21:00 PM PDT
- Charlie's Wardrobe said...
Oh my, I've seen one too many unflattering photo's of Mr Flusser to ever consider buying any of his books....
Will perhaps you should drop him a friendy email with the contact details of the fellows at Gaziano & Girling so he can get some proper shoes. - April 30, 2010 at 1:27:00 AM PDT
- MCS said...
Readers, readers, you're missing the point! The photographer hired by Will to take the two photos obviously conspired with Mr. Flusser to create an intentional parody of style, putting him in a Western suit two sizes too large, with Gucci loafers and a potholder as pocket square. But the set piece showing the book, now there's style... wait a minute, those shoes look like monk's-strap, but there's no buckle! They don't close with some dreadful velcro, or a magnet... do they really? Please save us!
- April 30, 2010 at 3:39:00 AM PDT
- Sifis said...
Ah... The comment section has turned into a forum for a heated debate about the photograph of Mr. Flusser displayed in this post. Hmmmm...
Well, my two cents: In this era of suits that, in the eyes of the multitudes, are a uniform one wears not because one wants to look good, but because one has to mainly for professional reasons, Mr. Flusser has the right idea. I haven't been to his shop, but even his website is designed to make me feel relaxed and at home. I have read "Style and the Man," and in that book, as well as in his interviews, Mr. Flusser repeats that dressing appropriately is not an expensive side-hobby for the rich and powerful, but is within everyone's reach. While Mr. Flusser is mainly known to the wider public for creating the wardrobe of a nouveau-riche prick on film, the style he promotes is one of relaxed elegance that is the absolute yin of the yuppie look's yang. If you came upon Mr. Flusser in the street wearing the outfit of the picture, you wouldn't think "there's a suit", you'd think, "there's a man who inhabits his clothes with comfort and aplomb." And that's the point. - April 30, 2010 at 4:52:00 AM PDT

I won't ever say anything bad about Mr. Flusser's dress as it is not always wise to confuse genuine style with "mistakes". Style uses the highest quality but sometimes is relaxed about the whole thing. Mr. Flusser exhibits here the truism that God is, as always, in the details: note the highest quality of that windowpane cloth, the soft sumptuousness of that light grey (or taupe), and how such a suit is emblematic of a correct gentleman's wardrobe for the spring. Note that perfect solid tie, and those low tight trousers are correct for the western pockets and give the swagger. As far as how the tie is tied, the manner about which most men have complained, it suits the attitude of the whole ensemble. Those Black Gucci slip ons suit the relaxation of the overall. Here is a key to some tradition behind what Flusser is doing. think Gary Cooper. If you look back at the Coop you can see some definite influence of that paragon of men's style of yore on Mr. Flusser in this particular photo.

- Lucky Dog / The Commish said...
Addicts of all sorts (and egoists) must constantly express their Jones in a more elaborate way. Flusser or any of us are no different.
"Style" as it relates to dress and the extreme of dress are incompatable, by definition. "Style" is not inherently good.
Believe it or not, what has come to be known as style in dress (or other activity)is historically based primarily on the philosophy of and now the science of ergonomics. Practicality is very elegant on the merits.
Practicality, along with the practice of the artful appreciation of beauty known as aesthetics, allow for detail that compliments the ergonomic need. Together, that equals style. Think form and function. Think BMW.
As an example, if one does not need to turn up their suit sleeves for some activity or work, then why would one pay for working button holes? Remember that the only reason there are buttons on the sleeve to begin with is because Napoleon didn't want his troops wiping their nose on their sleeves.
To do so (demand working button holes on sleeves) is not style in and of itself but rather an affectation,(conspicuous artificiality of manner or appearance; effort to attract notice by pretense, assumption, or any assumed peculiarity) usually. The form has no function. Do you just want people to know your suit is custom, bespoke, etc.? That's fine, just don't proclaim (outwardly or inwardly) superiority of style or position.
On the other hand, who among us can devine whether a person leans toward affectation or toward one's deep, true and pure appreciation for the aesthetics of dress or life? I would suggest it's like pornography. You just know, depending on the fellow. Think vanity.
Style is either vulgar or sublime. I'd say Flusser's windowpaned, low rider, mis-tied and slippered (and most likely sock-less)look is closer to vulgarity than sublimity.
Speaking of sublime, Cary Grant was a great stylist (whoever created it for him)and I would offer that his classic and much admired style in North By Northwest and other films--solid everything--is based on the Brummel philosophy of sublime style that is based on fit and quality. "If one turns around to look at you, you are not well dressed." That, rather than the prevailing gimmickry that passes today as style. I'd bet that if ol' Cary had working button holes one of them would not be unbuttoned, to make sure people knew they "worked".
In short, you either think Flusser, Grant, style bloggers, me or anyone who professes to appreciate "style" are, on an individual basis either fops or aestheticists.
OR, a fellow can be so individually unique and unassuming as to unintentionally create a physical and psychological persona that can be admired and respecfully emulated. Now that's style!
Best Regards to all,

It sounds like the new Style and the Man is a slimmer, less expensive version of Dressing the Man, and if you already own the latter there's really no reason to purchase the former...is that correct?

Ken Mallette, Maryland Emergency Management Agency
September 1st marked the beginning of National Preparedness Month, a FEMA initiative started in 2004 to encourage citizens to Pledge to Prepare. Across the nation, emergency managers and first responders have looked for creative and new ways to encourage the public to prepare. This year, the Maryland Emergency Management Agency decided to run a "Maryland Prepares" social media challenge, asking Marylanders a preparedness question for each day in September on Facebook and Twitter. It was through this challenge that we were introduced to Anne Arundel County native Lauren Hontz.
For nine-year-old Lauren, pledging to prepare has taken on a whole new meaning. Lauren's family lost their home to a fire in July. Experiencing the loss of her home, Lauren decided to take action and help other children and families who have lost their homes to fire. She started Lauren's Luggage, a non-profit organization that provides victims of house fires with a suitcase full of basic necessities for the first days after the incident.
Although Lauren's Luggage is still in its infancy, Lauren has already been able to give back to a family who lost their home in August, along with the help of a local church. Lauren's Luggage will have a table at the upcoming Baltimore City Fire Thrills show on October 6, 11-4pm at the Baltimore City Fire Department Fire Academy. For more information about Lauren's Luggage and how you can help, check out Lauren's Luggage on Facebook.
Even though National Preparedness month has come to an end, it's always a good idea to prepare yourself and your family. Whether it's building a disaster supply kit, making a family communications plan, or taking a preparedness class, we truly believe "A Prepared Marylander Creates a Resilient Maryland."
Thanks again to everyone who participated in our inaugural month, and to Lauren for reminding us that we can all make a positive difference in our State when we come together to help our neighbors.
Martin O'Malley is the governor of Maryland. He writes a regular blog for his official website.

'Don't be Evil' was the simple slogan that Google used in its early days as the basis for all of its actions. Initially, it felt as though the company was different and genuinely aiming to make life better for web users. Inevitably, the commercial pressures a company the size of Google faces means it has had to bring in huge profits to keep innovating and providing the experience that users expect. This has led to something of a backlash over recent years, with Google's attitude to privacy facing heavy criticism.

The one thing I've learned from watching Matt Flynn the past four summers is that he will always play better than he practices. Aaron Rodgers' backup is off to another relatively slow start, but there's no reason to be concerned. He'll find a way to move the offense as soon as the opposition is wearing different colored uniforms. I didn't see what the coaches saw in Graham Harrell last summer and I still don't see it. His arm is weak and his accuracy is average at best. The lockout is the only argument I can make for keeping him around. At least he knows the system.
I used to think James Starks looked like a poor man's Eric Dickerson, but now I'm tempted to remove the words poor and man. That's how terrific he's looked in training camp. The playoff sensation is running with great power and decisiveness. While Ryan Grant appears fully recovered from the ankle injury that ended his 2010 season, he simply doesn't possess Starks' physical ability. The former 1,200 yard rusher may be the nominal starter when the Saints come to Lambeau, but I can't imagine him getting the bulk of the carries. Rookie Alex Green hasn't done much through the first week of practices.
Jermichael Finley is an absolute freak. His height, athletic ability and soft hands make him almost impossible to defend. He's almost toying with the poor souls who are assigned to cover him. Barring injury or stupidity, there's no way I can imagine general manager Ted Thompson letting this guy get away. Prior to Finley's return to the practice field, the most impressive tight end was seventh-round pick Ryan Taylor. He isn't as savvy a route runner as fellow rookie D.J. Williams or as strong a blocker as Tom Crabtree, but he's a more complete player. He has a good chance of making the team.
The coaches are giving the young receivers plenty of snaps, and a few of them have taken advantage of the heavy workload. Second-round pick Randall Cobb has looked terrific. His incredible quickness makes him stand out from the crowd. I realize the Packers have the best quartet of veteran receivers in the league, but coach Mike McCarthy will find ways to get Cobb on the field. Count on it. If the team wasn't so deep at this position, either Chastin West or Shaky Smithson would have a legitimate chance to stick. West isn't flashy, but he runs good routes and catches almost everything. Smithson is a quick as a hiccup return specialist with enough raw skills to eventually develop into a useful NFL receiver.
Bryan Bulaga looks like the player ready to take the biggest leap from season one to season two. He's so much more confident than he was a year ago. And why not? He now has 16 starts under his belt, and more importantly, the coaches are no longer asking him to learn multiple positions. First-round pick Derek Sherrod has struggled at left guard after spending his entire college career at tackle. Veteran T.J. Lang has been more impressive, but it's early. If Sherrod doesn't start, he might find himself backing up Bulaga. That's because Marshall Newhouse will be hard to supplant as Chad Clifton's understudy. The quick-footed youngster been one of the most improved players in camp. I was surprised when Nick McDonald made the team last summer. I didn't see anything to get excited about – and I still don't. Right now, journeyman Evan Dietrich-Smith is the second-best center on the roster.
Anyone waiting for C.J. Wilson to flash big-time pass rushing skills had better get a chair. It's going to be a very long wait. He's not athletic enough to beat quality offensive linemen on a consistent basis. On the other hand, Jarius Wynn just might be. The undersized three-year veteran is enjoying his finest camp. He looks quicker than before and he seems to have added to his repertoire of moves. If he continues to improve, there will be a place for him on the final roster. Mike Neal has only practiced sparingly, but it doesn't take long to see his potential. Assuming he can stay healthy, he'll be a more than adequate replacement for Cullen Jenkins. Ryan Pickett and Howard Green look more like sumo wrestlers than defensive linemen, but extra pounds won't be an issue as long as they can shut down the run.
Erik Walden has taken the early lead in the battle to start opposite Clay Matthews. The former street free agent is playing more like a high draft choice. He looks bigger, stronger and more explosive than he did last season. Frank Zombo and Brad Jones have been OK, but neither has flashed nearly as often as Walden. Sixth-round pick Ricky Elmore was a productive pass rusher in college, but he hasn't gotten many sniffs of the quarterback yet. In fact, undrafted free agent Jamari Lattimore has probably been more impressive. He needs to get stronger, but he runs well and seems to pack a punch. Depth at inside linebacker is still a concern, but it isn't quite as big a concern thanks to Robert Francois. The third-year player is much-improved now that he's taking all of his snaps at one position. He isn't a big hitter. but he's smart and fairly athletic. Not surprisingly, sixth-round pick D.J. Smith is still thinking too much.
Davon House and Brandon Underwood were both enjoying solid camps before suffering injuries. The former was making a strong push to be the No. 4 corner and the latter was showing real promise at safety. Veteran Jarrett Bush is covering like a blanket so far, but I'm not getting carried away. He typically plays better in practice than he does in games. Sam Shields was the talk of camp at this time a year ago, but he's been pretty unspectacular so far. He doesn't seem to be playing with the same sense of urgency. I'm not worried, but it's something to keep an eye on. There probably won't be room for Josh Gordy, but he can play corner in this league. Morgan Burnett has been up-and-down in his return from knee surgery, but his potential is obvious. He has superior range. Brandion Ross and Anthony Levine are talented small-school players who don't seem to be intimidated by the bright lights.
Mason Crosby is off to another slow start, but he'll be OK. Tim Masthay, on the other hand, looks terrific. It's amazing how much better he's gotten since last summer. Cobb has a chance to be the team's best returner since Allen Rossum. Under-appreciated long snapper Brett Goode is almost automatic.
-Special thanks to contributor Mike Tahan, who has been covering training camp for Packer Update. Mike wrote this post – all I had to do was edit his shaky spelling and atrocious grammar!

If you do more than park your vehicle in your garage, chances are a central vacuum system would be a desirable thing to have, but many units are bulky and expensive. Thats not the case with this Garage Vac system. You can install it in minutes and at 9in.L x 4in.W x 29.75in.H, it takes up half the space of a typical central vacuum system. Despite its small size, it can handle up to a gallon of dirt in its easy-to-replace bag and it includes a HEPA type filtration system that prevents dust or allergens from being exhausted back into the garage. It also includes five handy tools and a unique 40-ft. stretch hose that shrinks to only 8in. for easy storage; just wrap it around the power unit and it's safely out of the way.

U.S. stock futures signaled a mixed open Thursday, as investors weighed a bigger-than-expected jump in jobless claims and turmoil overseas.
Early Thursday, investors were mulling over global headlines. China's ruling Communist Party named its next seven leaders, the eurozone officially entered a double-dip recession and Israel launched a series of blistering air strikes Wednesday on what it said were terrorist targets in Gaza.
BP said it was close to signing a deal with the U.S. government to resolve criminal claims from the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. But above all else in the United States, fiscal cliff fears remain a heightened concern for market participants.
"With expected tax increases, investors are looking for opportunities to sell as opposed to reasons to buy," said Jay Feuerstein, CEO and CIO of 2100 Xenon. "Our stock market tries to rally and then by midday falls flat. I'm looking for any news or hint of conciliation politically, otherwise I think it's dangerous trading."
President Obama met with CEOs Wednesday to discuss the fiscal cliff and is scheduled to meet with Congressional leaders Friday.
The report on initial jobless claims showed the lingering effects of Superstorm Sandy in the Northeast: 439,000 people filed for their first week of unemployment benefits last week. That was much higher than the forecast of 388,000 in jobless claims and it is the highest jobless claims tally since the last week of April, 2011.
Meanwhile, the Consumer Price Index showed that inflation remained tame in October, ticking up 0.1% during the month, as expected.
The Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia will release its monthly manufacturing survey at 10 a.m. ET.
Around 1:20 p.m. ET, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is due to deliver remarks on the housing market at an event in Atlanta. Regional Fed presidents Jeffrey Lacker of Richmond, Charles Evans of Chicago, Richard Fisher of Dallas and Charles Plosser of Philadelphia are also scheduled to give speeches Thursday.
U.S. stocks fell more than 1% Wednesday.

Raiders Fall Short in Fond du Lac
Fond du Lac, Wis. - Despite holding a 15-10 shot advantage, the MSOE Raiders (2-1-1, 1-1-0 Northern Athletics Conference) endured their first conference loss of the season with a 2-1 decision to the Marian Sabres (1-3-0, 1-1-0 NAC). Marian tickled the twine twice in the first period and entered the half with a 2-0 advantage. They tallied their first goal in the 13th minute on a finish by Jayde Koeune from a Brittany Syms feed. In the 32nd Minute Laura Maly finished what proved to be winner unassisted.
In the second period, the Raiders got a goal back on an unassisted strike in the 67th minute by Natalie Gayner (Whitefish, Mont./ Whitefish H.S.). It was her second finish in the past two matches. Unfortunately, the Raiders could not equalize despite a myriad of opportunities. Maureen Thompson (Grayslake, Ill./ Carmel), Paula Bohl (Muskego, Wis./ Muskego), Anna O'Donnell (Plainfield, Ill. / North), Caitlin Liddiard (Waukesha, Wis. / South) and Gayner produced chances in the last twenty minutes of the game, only to be denied by Marian goaltender Caitlyn Rosenberger.
MSOE will see action again this Friday evening when they host Carthage College for a 7:00p.m. Kickoff at Time Warner Cable Stadium at Uihlein Soccer Park.

Attorney Wendy Long will go head-to-head against Senator Kirsten Gillibrand in November. She beat Congressman Bob Turner and Nassau County Comptroller George Maragos in Tuesday's GOP primary for the U.S. Senate race. Zack Fink has more on the Republican party's candidate.
ALBANY, N.Y. -- Republican Wendy Long will take on incumbent U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand in November.
The attorney won a three-way primary Tuesday, beating out Congressman Bob Turner and Nassau County Comptroller George Maragos.
Long has never held office but has the backing of the New York Conservative Party and the National Organization for Marriage.

She won election in 2010 to finish Clinton's term that ends this year. This time, Gillibrand is running for a full, six-year term.
Watch Wendy Long give her victory speech.

U.S. stock futures were little changed Tuesday, as worries about Europe and the global economy kept investors sidelined.
Oil prices fell for the second day in a row, after plunging more than $3 in less than a minute during Monday's trading session. The U.S. Commodities Futures Trading Commission is reportedly investigating the cause, which left many traders scratching their heads.
Uncertainty over whether Spain would request a bailout, or even qualify for one, was dampening any enthusiasm investors had over the ECB's recent announcement that it would be willing to buy sovereign debt, pending certain conditions. But a report from Germany showing a jump in investor confidence helped offset some of the pessimism.
"After more than a 3-year stretch of almost non-stop growth and an impressive average quarterly growth rate of 0.7% QoQ, the German economy is finally approaching a landing. A soft, and not a hard, landing," said Carsten Brzeski, an economist with ING Bank in London, in a client note.
The euro lost ground against the U.S. dollar, but, at $1.30, still remains at a five-month high. European stocks slid between 0.7% and 1% in midday trading.
Asian markets remained under pressure as investors worried about U.S. trade relations with China. This week, a territorial dispute heated up over a small group of uninhabited islands claimed by both Japan and China. Asian markets ended lower with the Shanghai Composite dropping 0.9%, the Hang Seng in Hong Kong sliding 0.3% and Japan's Nikkei falling 0.4%.
On the domestic front, FedEx reported better-than-expected earning but the shipping company cut its outlook for the rest of the year and said it would raise shipping rates, citing pressure from "weak global economic conditions."
FedEx is often considered a bellwether for the global economy due to its size, worldwide presence and its role in shipping. The company had already cut its earnings forecast earlier this month.
Other signals today on the state of the economy include second-quarter data on the nation's current account balance, due from the Commerce Department at 8:30 a.m. ET. That will be followed by a Treasury Department report at 9 a.m. ET on the most recent foreign purchases of Treasuries in July.
Also on tap is a monthly report on builder confidence from the National Association of Home Builders, which will be released at 10 a.m. ET. The index is expected to come in at 38, up from 37 last month, according to a survey of analysts by Briefing.com.

11-5A BOYS SOCCER: Rowlett falls to Naaman Forest, drops back into middle of the pack
By DEVIN HASSON, email@example.com
For Rowlett, a win on Friday against Naaman Forest meant it would keep pace with South Garland in the race for the 11-5A top spot.
The alternative was one the Eagles were hoping to avoid, but that is the spot they are in after a 2-1 loss to the Rangers.
Instead of maintaining their place as one of only two district teams with only one loss, Rowlett falls back into a three-way tie for third place at 2-2 with Sachse and Lakeview.
Rowlett will try to get back on the winning track when it meets North Garland on Tuesday at 8 p.m. at Williams Stadium.
The Mustangs, who had a bye on Friday, will try to knock off first-place South Garland on Tuesday at 6 p.m. at Homer B. Johnson Stadium.

Doc and company go 'resto' on Harley project
An ape-hanger handlebar and a low profile complete the look of the modified Harley-Davidson of ŌĆśMike DocŌĆÖ D'Occhio's design. Credit: Contributed |
Sounds simple, but it's the successful business operator who puts customers' needs first, and that's why it took a year and half for "Mike Doc" D'Occhio's dream of converting a 1996 Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail Special into a custom machine to become a reality.
The idea of doing a "resto-mod" — the term for restoration and modification — and creating a unique motorcycle that could be used as a promotional prop for Doc's Motorcycle Parts in Waterbury goes back even further.
"We bought it about three years ago. Someone was just selling their bike. We did it on our time. Customers come first," said D'Occhio, who is vice president of the business his father started.
