Chow paks to Iraq
I'm trying to get a couple of "original" packages off to my marine grandsons in Iraq. Both Chowhounds. Any great suggestions?
I found some fabulous jerky on another post. Lots of dried fruit and nuts. Red licorice and jelly bellies.
Please help me out. Can't be perishible.
Thank you all.
Unfortunately, the packs I've been sending off to a friend over there don't qualify as "original" or "good chow" -- just good old comfort food like single serving chili, beef stew, and mac'n'cheese. Hmmm... I know drink mixes, the portioned kind that you can just pour into a water bottle, were one of his favorites... not very 'gourmet' though!
I would try to find variations of jerky and dried foods -- try Asian markets, and you'll find dried squid, longan, etc., which are great for snacking. You can also find ahi, salmon, and buffalo jerky at various markets.
Perhaps some Maribelle hot cocoa? You can get that for about $20 at Williams-Sonoma.
That store reminds me of some other items you can ship. They also have 'gourmet' honey (which can last a long time unrefridgerated), and jams -- like boysenberry, or other less common fruits. A favorite cookie of mine - thin, spicy moravian cookies are also found in the store.
In terms of nuts, I would also add the chili-lime packages from Trader Joe's. Lots of spice!
Best wishes! I really commend you on your thoughtful packages. It'll mean so much to them. If there is any link through which we can send chow paks, too, please let us know!
would it be safe to send a dry salami? I'm making up a care pkg myself and used the suggestions above. Never would have thought of the single serve drink mixes!
Thanks to all.
also want to be sure you're aware of the usps flat rate mailing boxes for military care pkgs. 2 sizes available with 8.10 total shipping charge. send lots of chow for just a little dough.
Not sure if this post will be allowed to stand but I'll post 2 very helpful links re sending chow to troops.
Thanks to all of you for those thoughtful suggestions. I have tried the spiced nuts at TJ's. They liked them. I will try the Asian markets and I do believe dried salami would hold up. I'll give it a try.
Good links for mailing info.
This is a great org if you care to communicate or send stuff to the soldiers:
We'll keep doing our part.
re: ipsedixit
Little bottles of Tabasco are nice.
Also, packets of powdered Kool-aid and Gatorade, and slim jim beef sticks. You can also get all kinds of excellent tins of sardines--they're portable, too, with the pop-off lids so the guys (and gals) can take them along. http://www.chowhound.com/topics/364987 Or, canned herring. http://www.chowhound.com/topics/32971...
Even canned some nice canned tuna http://www.chowhound.com/topics/306903 From what I hear, they want protein, protein, protein. But not pork, of course. Not allowed in.
re: The Dairy Queen
Don't MREs already come with little bottles of Tabasco?
re: Covert Ops
You know, I don't know! It never occurred to me that they might. Do they? I wonder how one finds this out?
EDIT: according to Wikipedia, many MRE's do come with Tabasco! Well, nevermind, then!
re: The Dairy Queen
Well that certainly doesn't mean you can't send Suzie's or Cholula or some other brand! :-)
re: The Dairy Queen
Send Tabasco! Red and Green!
Only some of the MREs come with it and then it's those tiny bottles - just about enough for one or two meals.
The regular military food is really pretty good but it's cooked to a fairly general taste level so, if your military members oveseas likes spice, send a number of bottles. The mess usually puts condiments out but it's good to have for when the food is carried out of the dining hall.
re: ipsedixit
For the guy I was sending to, since his mess hall/shop (forget the name of it, PX or something) was always out of creamer and sugar, I sent restaurant-style packets of each, along with some good coffee. I sent salt and pepper once, too, but more so he could keep it in his room instead of having to share out of the mess hall.
re: JessGoldberg261
Why would you assume that the military is feeding the troops poorly?
To the contrary, if you think it's "crap," it may be that you have no experience with it. MREs aren't like the old C-rats that were the butt of jokes. The food at permanent dining halls is better than average institutional food, its main problem being that it isn't "home cooking" for young men serving our country far from home.
I've eaten it and thought that the military cooks who prepared it did a fine job. I wasn't eating it anywhere near a war zone though and can't even imagine cooking under those circumstances. But I can assure you it isn't "crap,"

i don't like not knowing. its a fear of the unknown. this year, so far, has been the craziest year of my life, and i can see it taking a toll on my mind and body. //january started a new semester at school and it was great; good classes, decent profs, amazing friends. as decisions were made things started changing. i ran for Sophomore class VP. at the end of the semester the girl that ran for Sophomore president stepped down, so i stepped up. all summer i was preparing and pouring my heart and time and energy into this position and i was feeling good about it. i was excited and i had great ideas for the class. i felt so blessed. //every summer i work at SMHS as a lifeguard and swim instructor. its definitely one of the best jobs in the world. a week before the swim season ended i got a call from the head SGA president. he told me that my GPA was .121 too low to be involved in student government. i was forced to step down. at the time i was in shock, and i still am a little bit. why would God let this happen to me? i was at work so i had to hold myself together. //when i got home i sat on the couch and thought about how instead of moving into my dorm room in a week i would have to wait another month. the same thing kept running through my mind. "you need to listen to me this time." i've heard God's voice before, but it was strange to hear him say that, but i was half expecting it. //during the spring semester i knew that Vanguard was not the place for me. i love the people and the location, but without the right major there isn't really a point in being there. so i left. i left everything i knew and loved, all my friends. i packed up and moved back home to my parents. i had no idea what school i would be going to in the fall. //i didnt really care… that was a year ago.

yes, its unoriginal, but its still good to keep in mind.
No, we're not gonna keep saying mean things to each other. We're going to be kind and loving like a brother and sister in Christ. Act as normal as possible and learn from past mistakes and memories. My theory is that if I pretend like everything is ok, eventually it all will be ok. Wounds heal, seasons change, years go on, and we grow up, we get jobs and houses and learn how to survive with God by our side and people before and behind us. We never forget and we don't look back. Cherish the good times and laugh at the bad. Take too many pictures and write down memories because someday we'll be old and need something to remind us that before bed pans and applesauce, we had fun lives.
A breath of life spilled across the floor. you say you cant take it anymore. giving up is the only way. a step behind all the time. walking talking great fake smile. you say its the only way to feel like that. oh, how ignorant you are. a love drowned in a bottle so deep. so divine. we are incomplete.
So in love, so incomplete. the heavens and earth cannot compete. your perfection is greater than life itself. all i want is you, all i need is you. catch me when i fall. take my life. it is nothing if you aren't here. all i need, all i want is you. you break my heart, i run to you. great healer, almighty father. help me survive this life. you died so i can live. im living for you now. for today, for tomorrow, forever. make me perfect in your eyes. make me empty of this world. fill me with your love. let me spill it out for the world to receive. take my life and do your will. its yours; my life is yours. you are in my tears. you are in my laughter. you are in my valleys. you are in my thoughts. you are my beauty. im nothing without your love. you've saved me now i live for you.
passionate love… a burning passionate love. the kind that can sink ships and make people lose their minds. the kind that breaks hearts and saves lives. one that is pure and marked all at once. one that makes no sense. when you cant talk anymore, you can hardly fall asleep, then when you finally do you cant seem to wake up. is it all just a dream? is waking up from some of these dreams ever possible? this passionate love is irreversible. nothing can change what has been said or done, not even the author himself. words are more permanent than the kink they are sprawled in. they are like fire. taking captive all in its way. burning passionate fire, consuming everything that i am.
Psalm 25
people will always let me down, but God will always be here to pick me up. he is muy comfort when i am sad. he is here for me/ im feeling so sad tonight. i feel like ___ is letting me down and i hate it. he has been being so rude to me lately and i dont know what to do about it. i dont want to take a break, but at the same time i feel like we both need it. i need to get closer to God and he needs to figure out his own issues instead of taking them out on me. i feel like im his punching bag sometimes. i dont like it. im nothing but kind, loving, and sweet to him; yet he returns with anger and ungratefulness i deserve so much better. i need to find my love in and appreciation in God, not in my man. maybe that is my problem. i have gotten too comfortable. i need to distance myself ..maybe? im not sure what to do. i know that tomorrow, he wont be hearing form me unless he comes over or puts in a ridiculous amount of effort to get a hold of me. ow my biggest question is should i still go to —- ——- Wednesday or just stay home and give him space. i really want to go, but at the same time i feel like im suffocating him. who knows. ill figure it out tomorrow…
but will it ever be enough for you. my life is like a turn cycle. going round and round. im upside down waiting for you to help me. my head is rushing full of blood and my vision is blurred. where have you gone? you took all i had to give. im sitting here alone now waiting for you to come home. i cant stay alone long. my life is running out. the air is getting thin and everyone is passing me up without a second glance. this isn't who i thought i would be. do i like me or not? do i even love you anymore? my feet are getting cold like the rest of me and i need you to warm me up again. i cant stay here alone long, my life is running dry. everyone i love is passing me by.
we used to love so easily. we grew so far apart that now i dont even know your name. i'll never forget how much you meant to me. i cant forget ho hard you made me fall. you left before i could say goodbye. you took my heart and called it your own. i fell for you harder than ever. when i thought of my future i saw you with me. you let me down and broke my heart. how could i recover from the brutality i call you.
looking into your eyes i see nothing. pain from my past has turned my blind towards you. what makes you do what you did to me? why are you so cold inside. hold your own hand i cant take it— the pain of holding yours. show me the way to your heart and i'll break it. let me come close and i'll just hurt you again. take care of yourself and let me fall back to my own ways again. i can do this alone. just let me go. i cant take your love anymore.
i am tiny. just a child. i need you to hold me close and safe. [my God! where are you? i need you. i need help. i am left out alone in the killing world. am i too young to die? will i ever be old enough?] please dont say another word. they only break me down. your words are fake and meaningless. dont try to fix me. i dont need your problems along with mine. the weight is more than i can handle. its breaking me down. im breaking down. dont let me go but dont hold on. let me go but dont turn your back. i hope my double standards dont hold you back. this is all just a game to us. i dont want to play anymore. im too proud to forfeit. i've gotta let it all go. gotta let you go… oh, this tiny heart cant hold on anymore. she's breaking under the pressure of her own mind. letting you go has gotta be the hardest thing i've ever had to do. holding on to Him is all i need to do right now. all right now. so this is my final good bye. you wont hear from me anymore. good bye…
pressure behind my eyes is building up
"i feel the stress right… now crushing down on me like a million tons of bricks"
a few weeks later, i am now well rested, exercised, and relaxed. the stresses that i have are minor and controllable. today i woke up at 5a for yoga, then got ready and went to work. after work i napped (for 5 mins) then went to a second yoga class. i could feel the holy spirits energy surrounding me and helping me keep my balance and inner peace. in my morning class my instructor waved peppermint over us during relaxation. it reminded me of grandma Frankie. that relaxed me even more cuz i always felt safe with her. i dont understand why God took her away from me before i could really appreciate her love. but i know that she taught me valuable lessons, even though i was so young.
Just let me paint; paint a picture of you, of us, of what we used to be. How different will it be, and will we ever be ok? Doubt is filling my mind, but not my heart, my heart has hope. It must; without hope it will not survive. My chest is heavy and I feel like the weight of the world is on me. I need to let it go to allow the hope to rise. I want hope and trust to overtake me. Without hope life is seemingly impossible. I miss you, and living like this is a nightmare. I am so tempted to talk, but I know I cant. I need to live and love in silence for 2 more weeks, thats all! We are 33% complete. This is such a long time, time has never moved slower. I can only hope that you miss me. I am growing, that I can promise. It is obvious to those who see me weekly, daily is different though, changes are harder to notice. I just want to be ok… is that too much to ask for in this world?
This life isn't as enjoyable with you not by my side.
I miss you so much, but I know this is a good thing.
I found this while cleaning out the documents on my laptop. It's old, at least 2 years old.
You have me wrapped around your finger
You have me in the palm of your hand
I have no control of the situation
I want you to be my man
Your arms hold me close
I could leave whenever I want
My mind embraces these feelings
I can't get you out of my head
Your words are soft and loving
They calm my mind down
When I cry you hold me close
You catch me when I stumble
I've never been so sure about anything in my life
My heart skips a beat for you
Words leave my mind
They fall at our feet
You encourage me to overcome
Feelings of certain despair
Phrases from your mouth inspire
They tell me to do great things
You said I'm your lucky charm
You tell me I'm crazy
You say the insane things
Your words enthuse mine
Over take me
I'm filled with your love
The sound of your voice is like the ocean
Calming and deep and careful
Gentleness takes over
Hate is buried inside
Hurt is brought to the surface
New love overrides
Relationships can be hard to manage. Sometimes we make assumptions that are way off. Other times we put in more than we get back, or so we think.
I love giving people presents and notes, and I do this with my boyfriend. Ever since we got together, I have been leaving him notes on his car before he leaves for work or baking him cookies at midnight, or just whatever I think he might like. He, however, does not leave me notes, cookies, flowers, or whatever. I am learning to live with this. He does things for me though. He calls me when I'm having a bad day, sends me nerdy texts about how much he loves me, encourages me when I don't think I can do something. His words mean so much to me, and sometimes they get me through the day.
Last Tuesday I was having the worst day ever. I was late for school and forgot everything that I needed for my 5 hour photography class. Usually I just stay at school because I have a night class also, but that day I decided to leave at 11am. On my way home I almost ran out of gas on the freeway, and when I got back on I was in such a bad mood I didn't even bother checking my speedometer. I got my first speeding ticket, and didn't have proof of insurance because my dad decided to hold onto my card for safe-keeping. That was another write-up on my ticket. When I got home I called my friend to hang out, I ended up taking a nap on her couch. I left for school again around 5pm and found out that the room the class was in was changed. I was half an hour late. I asked the guy sitting next to me what we were watching, and after he answered my question he kept on talking. The librarian walked up to us and told us to "get out". This was about 10 minutes after getting to the school, and it's about a 40 minute drive from my house to the school, so I don't like wasting time. We both left the library and I sat in my car for 3 hours to wait for Jon to get out of class. He gave me the biggest hug ever when I saw him, and it made me feel better.
Everyone has bad days, its how you think of it the next day that matters though. If you learn from your mistakes and take every curve ball as an opportunity, things will get better.
When the guy and I got kicked out of class we ended up talking for a while, and I had the opportunity to tell him that I am a Christian. The first thing he asked was, "Are you going to push your religion on me?" I said, "No, I am me, and you are you. I make my choices and you can make your own. I just hope mine will have a positive effect on your life." He was like, are you sure you're a Christian? It felt good to be able to be a light in his day. I know that since I wasn't pushy or anything with him, I didn't give him a bad taste of Christians.
Pinterest has taken over my life, and I'm finding new ways to use it. I started an encouragement journal for my best friend…
We all go through rough times in life, when school and work take over our lives and it seems like there is no free time to sit down and breathe. Times like that stress us out and usually make relationships harder to maintain. We don't have the time or energy to keep up with our closest friends. Being away from them can make life even harder because God created us to be in healthy relationships with each other. We go through states of tiredness that can push our closest friends, sometimes family too, away from us. I've learned that when this happens, we need to take a step back and just let God do his thing. He always has a plan that is way better than any plan we could ever come up with. When we let go and let God take full control of our lives, we can experience this rare thing called peace. Our lives will still be crazy and busy, but simply knowing that God is in charge can take such a burden off our shoulders.
John 14:1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God, believe in me also."
I want to travel as a missionary and find God's love outside of the US. I want to love like I've never been hurt. I want to search like I have everything to find. I want to live like I'll never die. I want to go outside and never go back in. I want to do what I'm meant to do. Fasting/prayer starts tonight. I'm finding God's will and never looking back. There is no God like my God, and there is no reason why I should fear the unknown. Life is given to us so we can take risks. I've always been a risk taker and this is another opportunity.
"satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days."
even through the toughest times in life, we must turn to God.
He is the ultimate encourager and only wants the best for us.
He never gives us more than we can handle, its all to make us stronger.
the trials He allows us to go through are not meant to discourage us, but to help us grow in Him.
the things that seem huge in life to us are nothing but a tiny crack on the road to heaven.
we can't allow things of this world to drown our spirits.
keep your chin up, pray constantly, and everything will be alright.
just have faith.
"When you pray, your prayers are heard by the same God who answered Moses' prayer for water in the desert, the God who gave Abraham and his barren wife a son, and the God who made the slave Joseph second in power only to Pharaoh."
some things you want to do, but you dread doing them. its not something you can just pass up. this is opportunity knocking and you know that you need to answer the door because it could be good and you have nothing else to lose. just do it. open the door. press send. whatever you need to do, do.
it is a constant struggle for me; doing what i dont really want to do but not doing the things i know i want to do. it is something i believe that we all must overcome. its praying before i fall asleep. its resisting cursing when something goes terribly wrong. its resisting talking about someone behind their back. its putting others first. its loving another more than you love yourself. its sticking to your word.
food for thought…
inspiration, please come soon.
i can feel the sun burning my back.
give me a word, any word.
the trees look like w's and y's
some look like v's
our shadows make x's
is that a foreshadow?
i could always go to Balboa and Huntington and search
what good would that do?
have you ever watched the way people walk: one knee up and out, then the foot kicks then smacks the ground.
why can our mouths handle cold drinks, but not hot drinks?
charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.
proverbs 31:30
A Prayer For My Daughter
Once more the storm is howling, and half hid
Under this cradle-hood and coverlid
My child sleeps on. There is no obstacle
But Gregory's wood and one bare hill
Whereby the haystack- and roof-levelling wind,
Bred on the Atlantic, can be stayed;
And for an hour I have walked and prayed
I have walked and prayed for this young child an hour
And heard the sea-wind scream upon the tower,
And under the arches of the bridge, and scream
In the elms above the flooded stream;
Imagining in excited reverie
That the future years had come,
Dancing to a frenzied drum,
Out of the murderous innocence of the sea
May she be granted beauty and yet not
Beauty to make a stranger's eye distraught,
Or hers before a looking-glass, for such,
Being made beautiful overmuch,
Consider beauty a sufficient end,
Lose natural kindness and maybe
The heart-revealing intimacy
That chooses right, and never find a friend.
Helen being chosen found life flat and dull
And later had much trouble from a fool,
While that great Queen, that rose out of the spray,
Being fatherless could have her way
Yet chose a bandy-leggèd smith for man.
It's certain that fine women eat
A crazy salad with their meat
Whereby the Horn of Plenty is undone.
In courtesy I'd have her chiefly learned;
Hearts are not had as a gift but hearts are earned
By those that are not entirely beautiful;
Yet many, that have played the fool
For beauty's very self, has charm made wise,
And many a poor man that has roved,
Loved and thought himself beloved,
From a glad kindness cannot take his eyes.
May she become a flourishing hidden tree
That all her thoughts may like the linnet be,
And have no business but dispensing round
Their magnanimities of sound,
Nor but in merriment begin a chase,
Nor but in merriment a quarrel.
O may she live like some green laurel
Rooted in one dear perpetual place.
My mind, because the minds that I have loved,
The sort of beauty that I have approved,
Prosper but little, has dried up of late,
Yet knows that to be choked with hate
May well be of all evil chances chief.
If there's no hatred in a mind
Assault and battery of the wind
Can never tear the linnet from the leaf.
An intellectual hatred is the worst,
So let her think opinions are accursed.
Have I not seen the loveliest woman born
Out of the mouth of Plenty's horn,
Because of her opinionated mind
Barter that horn and every good
By quiet natures understood
For an old bellows full of angry wind?
Considering that, all hatred driven hence,
The soul recovers radical innocence
And learns at last that it is self-delighting,
Self-appeasing, self-affrighting,
And that its own sweet will is Heaven's will;
She can, though every face should scowl
And every windy quarter howl
Or every bellows burst, be happy still.
And may her bridegroom bring her to a house
Where all's accustomed, ceremonious;
For arrogance and hatred are the wares
Peddled in the thoroughfares.
How but in custom and in ceremony
Are innocence and beauty born?
Ceremony's a name for the rich horn,
And custom for the spreading laurel tree.
-William Butler Yeats-
whether you find it creepy or an escape, its where i'm gonna be for the next hour :)

6 arrested in new rape of a bus passenger in India
Indians perform special ritual for the soul of a gang rape victim in New Delhi, India, Thursday, Jan. 10, 2013. Five men have been charged with attacking the 23-year-old woman and a male friend on a bus as it was driven through the streets of India's capital. The woman was raped and assaulted with a metal bar on Dec. 16, 2012 and eventually died of her injuries. (AP Photo/Altaf Qadri)
NEW DELHI - Police said Sunday they have arrested six suspects in another gang rape of a bus passenger in India, four weeks after a brutal attack on a student on a moving bus in the capital outraged Indians and led to calls for tougher rape laws.
Police officer Raj Jeet Singh said a 29-year-old woman was the only passenger on a bus as she was travelling to her village in northern Punjab state on Friday night. The driver refused to stop at her village despite her repeated pleas and drove her to a desolate location, he said.
There, the driver and the conductor took her to a building where they were joined by five friends and took turns raping her throughout the night, Singh said.
The driver dropped the woman off at her village early Saturday, he said.
Singh said police arrested six suspects on Saturday and were searching for another.
Gurmej Singh, deputy superintendent of police, said all six admitted involvement in the rape. He said the victim was recovering at home.
Also on Saturday, police arrested a 32-year-old man for allegedly raping and killing a 9-year-old girl two weeks ago in Ahmednagar district in western India, the Press Trust of India news agency reported. Her decomposed body was found Friday.
Police officer Sunita Thakare said the suspect committed the crime seven months after his release from prison after serving nine years for raping and murdering a girl in 2003, PTI reported Sunday.
The deadly rape of a 23-year-old student on a New Delhi bus in December led to the woman's death and set off an impassioned debate about what India needs to do to prevent such tragedies. Protesters and politicians have called for tougher rape laws, police reforms and a transformation in the way the country treats women.
"It's a very deep malaise. This aspect of gender justice hasn't been dealt with in our nation-building task," Seema Mustafa, a writer on social issues who heads the Center for Policy Analysis think-tank , said Sunday.
"Police haven't dealt with the issue severely in the past. The message that goes out is that the punishment doesn't match the crime. Criminals think they can get away it," she said.
In her first published comments, the mother of the deceased student in the New Delhi attack said Sunday that all six suspects in that case, including one believed to be a juvenile, deserve to die.
She was quoted by The Times of India newspaper as saying that her daughter, who died from massive internal injuries two weeks after the attack, told her that the youngest suspect had participated in the most brutal aspects of the rape.
Five men have been charged with the physiotherapy student's rape and murder and face a possible death penalty if convicted. The sixth suspect, who says he is 17 years old, is likely to be tried in a juvenile court if medical tests confirm he is a minor. His maximum sentence would be three years in a reform facility.
"Now the only thing that will satisfy us is to see them punished. For what they did to her, they deserve to die," the newspaper quoted the mother as saying.
Some activists have demanded a change in Indian laws so that juveniles committing heinous crimes can face the death penalty.
The names of the victim of the Dec. 16 attack and her family have not been released.

From 1922 to 1970, the Pembroke Record documented and commented upon life at Pembroke College in Brown University. Although the Pembroke Record ceased publishing decades ago, it has remained a valuable archival resource and an irreplaceable part of the history of women at Brown University.
The Pembroke Center Associates — a group of alumnae/i and friends that supports Brown's Pembroke Center for Teaching and Research on Women — partnered with the Brown University Library's Center for Digital Scholarship to digitize the Pembroke Record. The physical newspapers were removed from their bindings, photographically imaged, and saved as digital files. Those files have been extensively coded and can now be searched online. We are pleased to share this invaluable resource that provides a window into an important period of Brown University's history. The Pembroke Center Associates would like to thank the many alumnae/i who made membership contributions to support this project.

Don't be misled by the new Glide's seemingly unchanged looks. While the styling may be familiar (and largely sacrosanct according to Harley bosses) the vast majority of the bike is all-new. To be exact, there are over 100 changes, making this the biggest revision of the famous ElectraGlide since it first gained its 'batwing' fairing in 1969. What's more, these ...
1803cc, 75bhp, 105mph, Insurance group 17
A bike for the kind of people who want to customise their Harley but want someone to do all the thinking and work for them. Ride it down any street and you can see people's heads turning and mouthing the word Harley as you chug past, legs wide astride, hunkered down low in the custom seat watching passers by look ...
1584cc, bhp, 115mph, Insurance group
The Street Glide tries hard to bridge the gap between full-on tourer and custom street bike. The bike is based on Harley's spine frame touring chassis but is 'slammed' for a low mean look. The twin cam 96 cubic inch (1584cc) engine hauls the bike briskly to a comfortable 80mph cruising speed with just the right amount of vibes. As ...
1250cc, 109.2bhp, 145.1mph, Insurance group 16
Harley's cruiser V-Rod has been about since 2001, and the new Muscle is… is just another styling exercise to bolster what is arguably a tired range. The Muscle is essentially a reworked V-Rod with design touches (muscular, flowing lines) to front it up as a serious boulevard traffic light blaster. Except it isn't that muscular – 12.25sec standing quarters anyone?
1580cc, 67bhp, 118mph, Insurance group 16
One of Harley's whackier 'image bikes', in a similar vein to the Harley-Davidson Bad Boy, Street Bob and Night Rod. The Harley-Davidson Night Train is a Europe-only model based on the Softail. It's lean, mean and very black and it goes pretty much as it looks. If you like the style of the Harley-Davidson Night Train you won't be disappointed.
1130cc, 115bhp, 144mph, Insurance group 17
The Harley-Davidson Night Rod is the third derivative of the controversial (but undeniably modern) Harley-Davidson VRSC V-Rod family is for those who like their bikes hot-rod style – and black. In practical terms it's halfway between the laid back Harley-Davidson V-Rod and semi-sporty roadster Harley-Davidson Street Rod. And that's no bad thing: a modern Harley with style and ability.
1450cc, 65bhp, 115mph, Insurance group 15
Basically the Harley-Davidson Dyna Super Glide Sport is as per the stock Harley-Davidson Dyna Super Glide but with a touch more hard edged sporting attitude courtesy of flat bars, a different seat, twin disc brakes and a touch more mean and moody matt black paint.
1584cc, 65bhp, 115mph, Insurance group 15
The Harley-Davidson Dyna Super Glide has long been the basic, entry level 'Big Twin' in Harley-Davidson's motorcycle range whether that be in 1340, 1450 or in the latest 1584, fuel-injected (the I bit) guise. As such the Harley-Davidson Dyna Super Glide is honest, straight forward and, arguably, the best value motorcycle of the bunch. Just don't expect any frills.
1449cc, 63bhp, 118mph, Insurance group 16
Although at first glance the Harley-Davidson Softail Deuce is much like any other cruiser style Harley, the Harley-Davidson Softail Deuce is, in fact, a real beaut. Based on the Harley-Davidson Softail but with a stretch tank, restyle rear fender, chromed fork sliders and pull back bars, the Harley-Davidson Softail Deuce has clean, classic lines that are classic Harley. It's also classily ...
1584cc, 65bhp, 110mph, Insurance group 15
Definitive Harley. If retro-style cruising is your thing, the Harley-Davidson FLSTF Fat Boy has all the right bits in the right places, from the big Milwaukee V-twin motor to the characteristic disc wheels and even the badge on the tank. Not the most versatile or comfortable of Hogs, but the Harley-Davidson FLSTF Fat Boy is almost certainly the best looking.

CHENEY -- The Eags don't hide the fact that last year's FCS Semifinal loss to Sam Houston State in Cheney is providing motivation for 2013. But their coach knows they can't tackle long term goals, without enjoying the immediate future.
Beau Baldwin preaches to his players to enjoy the process, which these days means fall camp. Eastern hit the field for the first time Wednesday afternoon.
Quarterback Vernon Adams said he had a tough time sleeping, he was so excited to get going again.
Eastern has some holes to fill, with big losses at wide receiver and linebacker. Baldwin pointed out that his program has gone through transition years at various positions in past seasons, and did so with success.
As for the coming days, Baldwin says he wants to see how his team picks up where they left off from the spring after a good offseason. He added that these days are about laying the foundation for what they hope to be another banner year.
The Eags will not take the red turf of Roos Field until their first scrimmage of the season on August 17th. They kickoff the season at Oregon

Thanksgiving is a great day to imitate Jesus, who came not to be served but to serve. Here are a few ideas.
When I talk about biblical principles undergirding government, I'm not talking about things like baptism, the Lord's Supper, or church discipline.
It's perfectly normal for children in a stepfamily to refuse to accept stepbrothers and stepsisters as their own siblings.
Gendercide, the forced abortion of baby girls, is an international catastrophe. But we can do something about it.
The Rule of the Vital Few
If we want to be the men God is calling us to be—men who are rightly admired and respected by those we love, men who faithfully fulfill our duty before God—then we will make as our motto and watchword the Masculine Mandate that we have received from God...
In this "Kids Talk About God" article, Carey talks with kids about the famous proverb: "Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all sins."
What we often perceive as the biblical way is often nothing more than the worldly way dressed up in piety and justified by familiarity and personal experience.
"It is so hard to watch a child you love continue on a path of destruction. Why does someone stay in a destructive relationship?"
A terrific lesson about the mother/daughter relationship and the need for grace from both generations.
What, exactly, happened on November 6, 2012? It's simple. We witnessed the results of a cultural tipping point.
Have questions about biblical tithing, or how to tithe? Prepare to be humbled by God's radical call to generosity.
How far has the drive for LGBT "rights" gone? Well, just about over the cliff of sanity.
"I'm feeling like I'm in a dead-end situation, but I'm not going to move until God tells me to do so!"
Curious as to how Google Earth works, and whether you can utilize it in your homeschooling? Keep reading!
A woman who has survived more trauma and tragedy in her lifetime than most of us can imagine, Somaly escaped slavery in the brothels of Cambodia and began to reach the world with her remarkable story of courage and hope.
Where did the idea originate that a Greek physician authored the third gospel? And in what ways can that claim be challenged or validated?
What can we learn about our bodies and souls by looking at the cycles and the seasons of Earth? Didn't someone else we know use agriculture to make his points?

If you have HBO, it has a series on it called "Weight of the Nation" and is an ongoing documentary on the increasing obesity/overweight climb over the past couple of decades.
I haven't watched it yet (have it recorded) but I did catch a few minutes of it on the children's section and WOW some of these kids are headed a bad direction.
I'll watch all of it and give my opinion of it later.

I watched it all online. It was very eye opening. I highly recommend it. The online version is broken down in segments that are just over an hour. There are shorter clips, too, but I don't how they compare to the full thing.

One thing that kind of disturbs me about weight-related documentaries is it lumps everybody into one category and it's not a truly accurate portrait of a society.
On paper, I'm considered "obese" but I bicycle to work every day (btwn 40-80m per week) and take bicycle tours on the weekends. I am extremely active otherwise and I still carry a lot of weight on my bones.
Maybe I am the exception, but I doubt it, especially during the times when people are in the process of losing weight, the outer-shell doesn't always coincide with the inner fitness.
So we make all these assumptions on information we don't really have readily available. In some ways it's a very dangerous position to be in.
I can outrun or outlift many, many people and most people would never think it was possible by looking at me.

So I watched part 1. Some amazing statistics:
Of the children born after 2000, 1 in 3 who are over weight will become diabetic. If they are of African American or Latino decent, that number increases to 1 in 2. Scary.
The transplantation of livers is going up not due to hepatitus, but to cirrosis due to issues from obesity.
Even a 5% change in weight in an overweight person (whether up or down) has a significant impact on hormones, cholesterol, triglycerides and blood pressure.
Looking forward to watching part 2 and the childrens segment.

started watching it. It is very sad. Even if it is a "general consensus" like someone posted earlier... it is still sad. My now 5 yr old daughter is considered obese. She never was before. She has grown to love food and also finds it emotionally comforting. I don't know what to do, as I've tried everything the doctors have told me. However, I work full time and can't control what her dad feeds her (we are divorced) or her grandmother while I"m gone. It's so frustrating. I'm hoping in a few years, she will grow out of it.

The Denver Broncos were able to hand the division rival Kansas City Chiefs their first loss of the season on Sunday night due in large part to keeping quarterback Peyton Manning standing upright, but that doesn't mean he isn't still a little banged up.
Manning has been dealing with high ankle sprains in both of his past ankles for the past few weeks and he was given an opportunity to rest up on Wednesday by sitting out of the team's practice.
While Manning may not have suited up for the Broncos practice session, the team's fans and fantasy owners should not be too concerned.
Manning has had the past few Wednesday's off as he attempts to get healthy after spending too much time this season on his back, so having Wednesday off this week again is nothing new.
If you are concerned about his availability for this week's upcoming game against the New England Patriots in prime time, he should be able to suit up and play like he has been doing all season long.

Volume 64 Issue 78 wsusignpost.com Monday, April 15, 2002 By Jennifer Larson asst news editor The Signpost George Fredrickson began the eighth annual Weber State University Holocaust Commemoration March 21 with his lecture, "White Supremacy and Anti Semitism: A Historical Comparison." The Holocaust Commemoration continues Wednesday. A conference comprised of five speakers will address Weber State University students in the Student Union Building Ballroom about the hatred common during the Nazi Holocaust, the Armenian and Rwandan genocide's and ethnic cleansing starting at 9 a.m. Assistant history professor Oliver Griffin is the organizer of this years Commemoration. "We were looking for comminalities between the speakers," Griffin said about finding speakers for the commemoration. A former skinhead will relate his personal account of his experience as a member of a neo-Nazi hate group in a speech titled "Out of the Depths of Hate." He will speak about how he became involved with the skinhead movement and why he eventually left. He will also talk about the methods used to attract and retain members of the neo-Nazi group. Due to safety concerns, he wishes to remain anonymous prior to his presentation. Deborah E. Lipstadt one of the five speakers at the commemoration, is a Dorot Professor of modern Jewish and Holocaust studies at Emory University in Atlanta. Lipstadt's lat est book, "Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault On Truth and Memory," is the first full length study on the history of those who attempt to deny the Holocaust. Lipstadt, a historical consultant to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, also helped design the section of the museum dedicated to the American response to the Holocaust. Samantha Power, Vahakn Dadrian and Norman Naimark will address students about genocide and ethnic cleansing. Power is the executive Director for the Carr center for human rights Policy at Harvard University. Power is the author of "A Problem from Hell: America and the Age of Genocide," which examines the United States' response to genocide in the 20th Century, and can also be found in Sept, 2001, "Atlanta Monthly." Dadrian received his undergraduate and graduate education at the University of Berlin, the University of Vienna and the University of Zurich. In the United States Dadrian See Holocaust page 3 j .

Lee Photo Editor The Signpost Brody Barnes, president elect for next school year, considers family his No. 1 priority in life. "My stepdad and mom are t he two most important people in my life," Barnes said. "My mom is the one who helped me find the confidence in myself to run for president." Barnes is no strancer to being involved on campus. At Weber Stale L'niversity, he has participated in the Student Activities Board of Directors and is the sports director for the Special Olympics on campus. "The main reason I wanted to get involved in student activities is because I have been an athlete my entire life," he said. "I wanted to improve my leadership skills." He turned down athletic scholarships to universities in Idaho and Montana so he could tocus on improving leadership skills. "I think Brody is one of the greatest assets we have had in student activities this ' Ryan Snarr, president of student activities, said. "I le is the type of person w ho lifts those around him to a higher level." year, Barnes has four major roals for the school and students at Weber State University next year. The first item on his plate is to develop community involvement with WSU. lie said that to accomplish this goal he wants to involve WSU students in three major service projects in the Ogden community. "I think to get the community involved with Weber State, Weber State needs to get involved with the community," Barnes said. Barnes has been heavily involved in the community and on WSU's campus. He helped to raise thousands of dollars for theCash-for-Kids program while a student body officer at See Votes page 3 Professors to s By J. P. Depreo correspondent The Signpost Two Weber State University professors are taking their education on the road as they embark on a research trip. Linda Eaton, an anthropology professor, and her husband Jeff Eaton an associate professor of geosciences, were recently awarded the Fulbright Scholarship for their research and professor positions. The professors, along with their 13-year-old daughter Laura, will be leaving for Prague, Czech Republic this fall and will not be returning until the start of summer term 2003. The Eatons had and presented and explained their reasoning for why their joint Czech and American project should receive scholarship funding to a series of committees. First, each professor attended an American committee and explained what they want to accomplish. Then, upon approval, they went before Czech committees and repeated the process. After eight months, the Eatons finally received word that both committees had decided to award them the funding for their project. Jeff Eaton will be studying rocks in the Bohemian Basin, attempting to find fossils and evidence of mammals which may fill a 90 million year void. No records of mammals exist in Europe for that time period; therefore, such a discovery would offer great insight into early mammal history. Jeff Eaton has done similar research in southern Utah, studying fossils from the Middle Cretaceous period. Linda Eaton will be teaching Native American Studies at Charles University in Prague. She said that as an anthropologist, this is a chance to experience a different culture, which is an honor in itself. "1 hope my experience will give new insight and ideas to bring back to WSU students and also help me to learn things of my interest," Linda Eaton said. "I am looking forward to meeting new people and learning new things." To prepare for the trip, Linda F.alon is learning to speak Czech, bul admits she is grateful she will be using English in her classroom. The Eatons will have nine months to research and complete thcirt.isks While there. Lama will attend school.

|Weber State University
|Associated Students of Weber State University; A generous grant from the Utah State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

Back where we belong
Architecture is back in its traditional place in gallery VI this year, after two years elsewhere following the ra fire of 1997, writes Paul Finch. It is good to see it in the big room beyond the Octagon, and especially good to see so much high-quality work. Better economic conditions and thus more buildings are one reason for this, and almost certainly explain the number of models on display, a real tribute to the model-maker's craft. In particular three by A-models for Will Alsop are ...

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Surprising? No. They've been saying for a while they've regretted how arena turned out. Don't mistake that for them admitting that they don't think there should be PvP balance. The alternative to arena was rated battlegrounds, and that would still require balance - just not the awkward balancing for 3 different sizes of close quarters combat at once that they had to do. In Cataclysm, I fully expect PvP balancing to occur that has impacts on PvE - it just won't be so often and cause some rippling effects, since the scale of battlegrounds should be more in line with the scale of raids.
Rated battlegrounds are not the only alternative to arenas. They could have also said "Hey, this is a PvE game, PvP is just for when you get bored and want a change of pace, it's NOT a PvP game and we're not giving you commensurate rewards. Why? Because it's our game and that's the way we want it."
@ Heilig- Fact is, the game has had PvP in it throughout its existence -> Bgs+titles in classic, and it IS a major part of the game. Believe it or not, many players think it PREFERABLE to only play PvP, and find PvE a hassle. GTFO with your single-minded "I'm right because I know how to use caps" Attitude. Just thought u should know that many player's game time is devoted solely to PvP, and that's the way it is. Deal with it.
Considering a lot of classes are getting totally revamped in Cataclysm, I would think that even arena should be much more balanced this time around.
At least they did a good job with it so far. I think BG works pretty well, and PvE is definitely awesome. Arena was just too awkward, like many had said already.
Seriously, why do they keep trying to balance classes anyway? Games like this should be lopsided in PVP depending on matchup. A pure melee dps class should be able to destroy a hybrid or clothy is close combat. A caster should be able to destroy melee or healers as long as they are able to keep range. People want it all and I think if it was unbalanced it would make people think harder about what class they roll from the start and require more group balancing.
This game has become to much of a stun and CC competition and not about who naturally has the upper hand and skill. My point is every class should NATURALLY have the upper hand over other classes but also have glaring weaknesses to others.

I arena'd for two season and stopped. WoW is a PvE social game. Look at the subscriber numbers for the PvP MMO's (AoC, WAR, etc). 1% of WoW's subscriber numbers. If that translates over, 1% of players live for arenas and 99% of us suffer for "class balance".

@ Sterny
PVP is and has been a part of the game since vanilla yes. The ARTICLE is about ARENA, and the changes THAT causes, not world or bg PVP.
I personally dont mind (or care) what you do, BUT when you balance the WORLD about a small segment that was added DURING TBC, thats when people complain. I do not like having to relearn 1/2 the way i play cos some idiot has found an exploit in a portion of the game that is in the minority,and blizz have 'rebalanced' the classes around that small portion.
As to your comments about people using Caps, i notice you ALSO do it. As we all do to provide emphasis on points you are trying to make by stressing certain words or phrases. So you have made yourself out to be either stupid or a hypocrate, and to respond to your last part - even more players devote themselves to PVE and think PVP is a waste of time, so you get used to it!

What they should do is let us add a battle group wide chat like the lfg channel but again that may turn into a huge barrens chat. They could at least let us add people to our friends list in our battlegroup so we can group with that awesome dps/tank/healer again and again.
That will be coming when they unroll the new Battle.net, because you'll be able to friend players based on their b.net ID, not their character name, and talk to them even if they're playing a different Blizzard game (IE, SC2 players will be able to talk to WoW players, and you'll be able to talk to another WoW player regardless of what server or faction they're on).

And what's wrong with Barren's Chat? If you really have a problem with it, just leave the channel. If you want to laugh and have a good time, making jokes and forming raids for to attack alliance players, then join the party!
Eh, battlegroup wide would be ridiculous for chatting I think...I don't know about your server, but mine has channels named heroiccrisis hordeside, and hdcc (heroic dungeon crawlers channel) alliance side...even those confined to the server are quite spammy, nevermind battlegroup-wide!
